How To Pass Additional Arguments To Callback Functions In Javascript When Using .execute()?

I'm working with javascript for Google Analytics API but I'm no more than a novice in JS. I have C++ and Java knowledge and I can get along with logical thinking but some things pu

Solution 1:

Adding a closure would solve your problem:

for(var x = 0; x< n x ++){  //Or any other loop
   (function(x){   //Closure. This line does the magic!!var arrayDim = something_that_depends_on_x_or_the_loop,
           param2 = some_other_thing_that_depends_on_x;
       gapi.client.analytics.data.ga.get({'ids':'<tableID>',
         'start-date':'<startDate>',
          ...
       }).execute(functionputToVar(results){   //this fn is defined inline to get access to param1, param2//The following alerts will use the *correct* variables thanks to the closurealert(x);
           alert(arrayDim);
           alert(param2);
       });
   })(x); //This one too
}

The closure does the magic. It will allow to each loop cycle to have its own variables (not shared), so the proper ones will be inside putToVar when executed.

I hope it's clear, if not, just let me know.

Just test it!
