A constructor definition.

A constructor may be either a callable constructor or a value constructor.

Examples (multi-line):

// 2D point
shared new polar(r, φ) {
    Float r;
    Float φ;
    this.x = r * cos(φ);
    this.y = r * sin(φ);
    this.r = r;
    this.φ = φ;
}

shared new origin {
    x = 0.0; y = 0.0;
    r = 0.0; φ = 0.0;
}

blockSource Codeshared formal Block block

The block of the constructor.

childrenSource Codeshared formal <Annotations|LIdentifier|Parameters|ExtendedType|Block>[] children

The child nodes of this node.

Refines Node.children
extendedTypeSource Codeshared formal ExtendedType? extendedType

The extended type of the constructor, if present.

nameSource Codeshared formal LIdentifier? name

The name of the constructor, if present.

An absent name is only allowed for a callable constructor, in which case it is the default constructor.

parametersSource Codeshared formal Parameters? parameters

The parameters of the constructor, if applicable.

Callable constructors have parameters, value constructors do not.
