Question

hi i am updating the keyIndex array, which is created in object, while i add the array to URL it’s not work:

my code :

var dataObject = {
    Indices: {
        subIndex: {
            keyIndex: [], //this is not updating in baseURL 'keyIndex'
            method: 'GetCCINationalIndicesData',
            baseURL: 'http://107.20.173.235/BlufinAPI/Service/ConsumerConfidenceIndex.svc/GetCCINationalIndicesData?InputJSON={"IndexID":"' + keyIndex + '","FromMonth":"10","FromYear":"2011","ToMonth":"3","ToYear":"2012"}'
        }
    },
    Geography: {
        0: '1',
        tiers: {
            method: 'GetCCITierIndicesData'
        },
        regions: {
            method: 'GetCCIRegionIndicesData'
        },
        city: {
            method: 'GetCCICityIndicesData'
        }
    },
    Demographics: {}
}

anything wrong?

Answer 1

It’s because keyIndex is evaluated only once when the baseURL string is created.

You could make baseURL a function instead…

baseURL:function() {
    return 'http://107.20.173.235/BlufinAPI/Service/ConsumerConfidenceIndex.svc/GetCCINationalIndicesData?InputJSON={"IndexID":"' + 
            this.keyIndex + 
            '","FromMonth":"10","FromYear":"2011","ToMonth":"3","ToYear":"2012"}';
}

Then call it like a function…

dataObject.Indices.subIndex.baseURL();

Although the original keyIndex was not a reference to the object property in the first place.

And this has nothing to do with jQuery.
