 5When using the `@lends` tag, the `@constructs` tag allows you to document that a particular function will be used to construct instances of the class.

14{{{
15var Person = makeClass(
16    /**
17      @lends Person.prototype
18    */
19    {
20        /** @constructs */
21        initialize: function(name) {
22            this.name = name;
23        },
24        say: function(message) {
25            return this.name + " says: " + message;
26        }
27    }
28);

31Note: that when using this tag you should not also use the `@constructor` or `@class` to document the class in another doclet, all documentation for the class should go in the `@constructs` doc comment instead.
