abort-on-property-write

The abort-on-property-write snippet patches a property on the window object that aborts execution when the property is written or set. No error gets printed to the console.

Only use this snippet for written properties. Place it just inside the script you want to abort, otherwise, an error will be thrown.

Parameters

Name	Description	Mandatory
property	The name of the property or path to the property (chain of properties separated by dots).	Yes
setConfigurable	Value of the configurable attribute. Defaults to true. Setting to false prevents overwriting.	No
