To limit the inheritance level, provide a `level` argument. 76 77 <!-- eslint-disable id-length --> 78 79 ```javascript 80 var symbols = inheritedWritablePropertySymbols( [], 1 ); 81 ``` 82 83 </section> 84 85 <!-- /.usage --> 86 87 <section class="notes"> 88 89 ## Notes 90 91 - Property order is not guaranteed, as `object` property enumeration is not specified according to the [ECMAScript specification][ecma-262-for-in]. In practice, however, most engines use insertion order to sort an `object`'s properties, thus allowing for deterministic extraction. 92 93 </section> 94 95 <!-- /.notes --> 96 97 <section class="examples"> 98 99 ## Examples 100 101 <!-- eslint-disable id-length --> 102 103 <!-- eslint no-undef: "error" --> 104 105 ```javascript 106 var defineProperty = require( '@stdlib/utils/define-property' ); 107 var hasSymbolSupport = require( '@stdlib/assert/has-symbol-support' ); 108 var Symbol = require( '@stdlib/symbol/ctor' ); 109 var inheritedWritablePropertySymbols = require( '@stdlib/utils/inherited-writable-property-symbols' ); 110 111 var hasSymbols = hasSymbolSupport(); 112 var symbols; 113 var obj; 114 115 function Foo() { 116 this.a = 'a'; 117 defineProperty( this, 'b', { 118 'configurable': false, 119 'enumerable': false, 120 'writable': false, 121 'value': 'b' 122 }); 123 if ( hasSymbols ) { 124 this[ Symbol( 'a' ) ] = 'a'; 125 defineProperty( this, Symbol( 'b' ), { 126 'configurable': false, 127 'enumerable': false, 128 'writable': false, 129 'value': 'b' 130 }); 131 } 132 return this; 133 } 134 135 Foo.prototype.c = 'c'; 136 defineProperty( Foo.prototype, 'd', { 137 'configurable': false, 138 'enumerable': false, 139 'writable': false, 140 'value': 'd' 141 }); 142 if ( hasSymbols ) { 143 Foo.prototype[ Symbol( 'c' ) ] = 'c'; 144 defineProperty( Foo.prototype, Symbol( 'd' ), { 145 'configurable': false, 146 'enumerable': false, 147 'writable': false, 148 'value': 'd' 149 }); 150 } 151 152 obj = new Foo(); 153 symbols = inheritedWritablePropertySymbols( obj ); 154 155 console.log( symbols ); 156 ``` 157 158 </section> 159 160 <!-- /.examples --> 161 162 <section class="links"> 163 164 [ecma-262-for-in]: http://www.ecma-international.org/ecma-262/5.1/#sec-12.6.4 165 166 [@stdlib/symbol/ctor]: https://www.npmjs.com/package/@stdlib/symbol-ctor 167 168 </section> 169 170 <!-- /.links -->
