  // %          note 1: We can't copy instance properties, as those require instantiation (with potential side-effects when called)
  // %          note 1: We've chosen not to assign to or create a prototype object on the destination object even if the original object had the properties on its prototype
  // *     example 1: var A = function () {};
  // *     example 1: A.prototype.prop = 10;
  // *     example 1: var b = {};
  // *     example 1: aggregate_properties_by_regexp(b, 'A', /^pr/, false);
  // *     returns 1: undefined

A.prototype.prop = 10;
var b = {};
aggregate_properties_by_regexp(b, 'A', /^pr/, false);
{% endcodeblock %}

Should return
{% codeblock lang:js returns %}
undefined
