在RequireJS中定义模块时，返回对象与返回init（）函数之间有什么区别？

Question

I have a JS module to store some configuration objects. I'm using it like enums in c#.

When requiring it in another module, what's the difference between the following 2 implementations?

1.

Types.js

define([], function(){
    var types = {
        typeA: "Type A",
        typeB: "Type B",
        typeC: "Type C"
    };
    return {types: types};
});

Usage

define(["Types.js"], function(types){
    var types = types;
    ...
});

2.

Types.js

define([], function(){
    var init = function(){
        var types = {
            typeA: "Type A",
            typeB: "Type B",
            typeC: "Type C"
        };
        return {types: types};
    };      
    return {init: init};
});

Usage

define(["Types.js"], function(types){
    var types = types.init();
    ...
});

Is there any differences between those 2 implementations? Or are they just the same?

Answer 1

The second implementation is more like OOP-style, because you can make several instances of the class Types: types = new Types(someParams); and use it fields and methods. But the first implementation only returns object.
