Ultimate Library Stub for Javascript
Automated disclaimer: This post was written more than 15 years ago and I may not have looked at it since.
Older posts may not align with who I am today and how I would think or write, and may have been written in reaction to a cultural context that no longer applies. Some of my high school or college posts are just embarrassing. However, I have left them public because I believe in keeping old web pages alive—and it's interesting to see how I've changed.
Combining the power of hot buzzwords such as "closures", "private and privileged scoping", "anonymous functions", and "object namespacing", I present a framework for future Javascript libraries.
Explanation
The only innovation here is the stub:
if(typeof LibStub === 'undefined'){//begin double-include prevention
//JQuery to initialize library: $(document).ready(LibStub.init);
