 */

/**
 * A class description.
 */
class SrcClass {
   
  /**
   * A static member.
   * @type {Array<any>}
   * @readonly
   */
  static aMember;
    
  /**
   * A member.
   * @type {Array<any>}
   */
  aMember;

  /**
   * Also a member.
   * @type {number}
   */
  get alsoAMember() {
    return 0;
  }

  /**
   * A constructor.
   * @param {Array<number>} numbers The variable array numbers.
   */
  constructor(...numbers) {
  	// ...
  }
    
  /**
   * A non static method, who overrides its super class function.
   * @returns {string} A string is returned.
   * @override
   */
  nonStaticFunction() {
    // ...
  }

  /**
   * Does something.
   * @param {object} options The options.
   */
  static staticFunction(options) {
    // ...
