I’ve several JS files; the first one is a library to be used by the next ones, and every one of those another files have a function main() which calls the functions of that file.

lib.js => library

    JavaScript is not C or something similar.

    It doesn’t matter in which file you define the function. The function will be overwritten.

    So if you first load the file a.js and then the file b.js The main function will be the main function which you’ve defined in b.js and the main function you’ve defined in a.js won’t exists anywhere.

    If you want to keep old functions I recommend you to create an object in each file and define the main function in it. So something like this.

    a.js:

    var a = {};
    a.main = function() {
        /* do stuff */
    };
    

    b.js:

    var b = {};
    b.main = function() {
        /* do stuff */
    };
    

    So now you can call:

    a.main();
    

    and

    b.main();
