how would you pass in parameters to a constructor when written like new(Date)?

Question

As a corollary to this question, if you created an object in javascript using the syntax new (Date) how would you pass in any constructor args/params?

In other words is there an equivalent of new Date(2000) or is that just how you would do it?

Answer 1

The parens return the result of the contained expression, so this will work:

new (Date)(2000);

This is the same as:

new Date(2000);

Answer 2

Have you tried: new (Date)(2000)? Not exactly pretty code...
