How does JavaScript define a new string type?

Question

First, I define a default string.

var string = new String();

But I wanted to have a more powerful string, so I added some methods to the prototype of string.

String.prototype.md5sck

That's good, but I hope he's a new type.

var string2 = new String2();
string2.prototype.substring();//Method with inherit default string
string2.prototype.md5sck();//Have additional methods
string.prototype.md5sck();//null The system default string method will not be affected.

And I have to make sure my method can't be modified by others

var string2 = new string2();
string2.prototype.md5sck = ???; // After new(), I hope this behavior will be prohibited

You have two questions here. For the first one, see https://stackoverflow.com/questions/28151450/subclassing-string-in-javascript — GOTO 0, Mar 03 '22 at 08:23

var string = new String();
String.prototype.md5sck = () => { console.log("md5 check") };

class String2 extends String {
   // define here
}

var string2 = new String2();

string2.md5sck()
