arrays - name property of object, javascript -

i have question regarding name property of object, here situation: im creating custom object (called notka) prototype.constructor , methods added prototype, im pushing array of objects, converting array json object , saving on external server. far good.

when im getting external server json , converting array of objects name property of object lost , im getting anonymous object dont recognize methods. have few ideas avoid converting arrays objects , viceversa , avoid mess im asking out of curiosity, there way preserve name of object or change name of anonymous object.

i tried creating new object of custom type, like:

var nt = new notka(); // custom object nt = tab[index]; // tab array containing objects fetched external sever 

but not work, newly created notka has constructor.name notka when ill assign object have anonymous object again.

thank in advance answer :)

no, can't serialize json object , preserve name or methods of function (which notka is, not simple object). when saving object database, converted string first. database gets output json.stringify( nt );. when comes , gets parsed, it's missing except allowed in json standard, not same javascript, node.js or otherwise. it's simpler , allows datatypes (basically plain objects, numbers, strings, , arrays).

it sounds want modify constructor can instead:

var nt = new notka( tab[index] ); 

if nt = tab[index] destroying reference original notka object created earlier.

so maybe

var notka = function( obj ) {     ( var in obj )         this[i] = obj[i]; };  notka.prototype.multiply = function( times ) {     return this.someproperty * times; };  var tab = [{     someproperty: 4,     another: "notka!" }, {     someproperty: 15,     another: "lalalala" }];  var nt = new notka( tab[0] ); nt.multiply( 5 );  // 20
