…classes (previously we were outputting invalid JavaScript that the runtime was erroring on)

Oh, cool, didn't notice it was fixed right after the report! Thank you very much :) |

Yes, it will go out with the next release. The current generated code for this edge case isn’t valid JavaScript, so the runtime should already be throwing an error; and then when the next point release goes out with this fix, the compiler will catch the error before the runtime does. |

We had a test for making sure the compiler wasn’t allowing
export class(without a name given for the class) but it was a poorly written test, and wasn’t actually checking that the export wasn’t happening. The error message it was checking for was actually getting thrown by the Node runtime (for not understanding theexportkeyword) rather than checking that anonymous classes can’t be exported.I added a check in
nodes.coffeethat exported classes have names, and I fixed the test.
