Description

When you give a constructor function a set of default parameters they don't get assigned to the object correctly.

The reason lies in the generated code:

MyStruct = function(args) {
this.value = null;
if (args) {
if (!args.value)

{ this.value = args.value; }

}
};

The check for results !args.value causes that the value to be only set if it is undefined.
