Kendo ObservableObject functions

[Kjell]

I just read that when creating js objects it's better to assign functions via the prototype vs the object literal constructor.  I think this is not the case with the kendo ObservableObject but I am curious, why is that?

Hi Kjell,

this is correct, using the prototype object for methods in general uses less memory. I am not sure that I understand your concern about the observable object, though. Kendo UI uses a class-based inheritance, which builds prototype objects internally - check the definition of the ObservableObject for one such declaration. May you please clarify further?
