before nothing I'm new and I'm glad to join to this great community. The thing is, I have a JavaScript class called Character like this:
var Character = function()
{
// ..Some previous Properties / Methods (included one called "StareDown()")..
// And this method:
this.GrabDown = function()
{
Context.clearRect(0, 0, CanvasWidth, CanvasHeight);
//Context.fillRect(0, 0, CanvasWidth, CanvasHeight);
Context.drawImage(this.GrabbingDown, CharacterX, CharacterY, SpriteWidth, SpriteHeight);
window.setTimeout
(
function()
{
// Here is where I want to call the parent class method "StareDown()", but I don't know how.
},
250
);
}
}
So this is my big question, How can I access a parent method through that sub anonymous function? I've been trying to figure it out the whole night but I couldn't find some helpful information, Thank's!
You need to store your this
object of the parent in a variable (assuming you have defined the function as this.StareDown = function () {...}
var Character = function()
{
// ..Some previous Properties / Methods (included one called "StareDown()")..
this.StareDown = function() {...}
var curCharacter = this;
this.GrabDown = function()
{
Context.clearRect(0, 0, CanvasWidth, CanvasHeight);
//Context.fillRect(0, 0, CanvasWidth, CanvasHeight);
Context.drawImage(this.GrabbingDown, CharacterX, CharacterY, SpriteWidth, SpriteHeight);
window.setTimeout
(
function()
{
// Here is where I want to call the parent class method "StareDown()", but I don't know how.
curCharacter.StareDown(...);
},
250
);
}
}
