Constructor: Member variables not visible / out of scope

[skleinbo]

This works

@DanDoe

struct foo
    N::Int
    function foo(pN::Int)
      newfoo = new(pN)
      println("Hello World") # Gets printed
      println(newfoo.N) # Gets printed too
      newfoo
    end
  end

Most importantly, the constructor must return the instance created by new.

Your last example results in infinite recursion, because the constructor keeps calling itself.
