Is there any way to do something as follows: Rather than call super on the properties of the base class, just pass in an instance of the base class? I am getting an error in my editor when trying but wondering if I am missing something if it's just not allowed. Do I really have to pass in each property of the extended class if I already have an instance of the base class?
class Person {
private name: string
private age: number
constructor(name: string, age: number) {
this.name = name;
this.age = age;
}
}
class Employee extends Person {
private position: string;
//pass in the instance of Person already created
constructor(person: Person, position: string) {
super(person);
this.position = position;
}
}
let philInstance = new Person("Phil", 20);
let janitor = new Employee(philInstance, "janitor")
