Description Kathy Carroll CLA 2011-09-08 12:31:04 EDT 
This EGL line of code 
   		trHandler crudeHandler = new crudeHandler;

Causes an TypeError exception.  The message is egl.client.crudeHandler is not a constructor.

I've deployed the attached project and modified the generated HTML (this is in the common package).  And debug using firebug.

This looks like it will be a duplicate of 357247.  

If you declare a variable at the top of MyHandler of type crudeHandler, does the runtime error go away?

Actually the project works now without any modification to the EGL code.  perhaps it was the nullability changes that fixed it
