 It forward declares the constructor in the type definition. When the constructor has parameters, it also generates a default constructor.
-Notice, inside the body of the constructor one has access to `this` which is of the type `ptr Foo`. No `result` variable is available.
 
 Like `virtual`, `constructor` also supports a syntax that allows to express C++ constraints.

 In the example above `CppClass` has a deleted default constructor. Notice how by using the constructor syntax, one can call the appropiate constructor.
