I'm trying to declare and use a function inside a function in this class, but it gives me an "TypeError: this.outputName is not a function" and I can't figure out an answer myself.
Any help is apreciated, snippet ahead.
var TestPerson = function(name) {
this.name = name;
};
TestPerson.prototype.outputName = function()
{
console.log('Name: ' + this.name);
};
TestPerson.prototype.outputNameWithDelay = function(delay)
{
setTimeout(function() {
this.outputName();
}, delay);
};
var tp = new TestPerson('Mike', 28);
console.log('calling outputName');
tp.outputName();;
console.log('calling outputNameWithDelay 2s');
tp.outputNameWithDelay(2000);
console.log('waiting for Timeout...');And already tried not to declare the function in the timeout there, but as a seperate function in the class, but still the same error.
var TestPerson = function(name) {
this.name = name;
};
TestPerson.prototype.outputName = function()
{
console.log('Name: ' + this.name);
};
TestPerson.prototype.outputNameWithDelay = function(delay)
{
setTimeout(this.timeoutFunc, delay);
};
TestPerson.prototype.timeoutFunc = function()
{
this.outputName();
};
var tp = new TestPerson('Mike');
console.log('calling outputName');
tp.outputName();;
console.log('calling outputNameWithDelay 2s');
tp.outputNameWithDelay(2000);
console.log('waiting for Timeout...');Thanks in advance!
