Convert Javascript class to a string

Hello everybody!

I would like to know the best way to convert a Javascript class into 1 string, that i can later on pass into the eval() function.

If you may know a better way of executing scripts dynamically, please let me know.

Thank you very much, Nikita Makarov

Out of curiosity - could you write what do you need dynamic script execution for?

Sure. I'm making 2 clients connect via lan and i would like to have one of the clients receive classes from the other for greater customisation.

Do you mean that one player can create a script which would be then passed to the second client?

exactly that

So I guess you're not looking for converting the whole class, but only some subset of it, which you actually can evaluate.

Apart from eval, I know there are discussions on forums related to dynamic script execution using languages like lua. $$anonymous$$aybe it's a good idea to research this subject a bit.
