Hello,

I'd like to create this object...

object = {
  'object[1][var_name_1]' : 'value1',
  'object[1][var_name_2]' : 'value2',
};

I'm trying to it this way, but I'm getting error missing : after property id...

function getPrefix() {
  return 'object[1]';
}

object = {
  getPrefix() + '[var_name_1]' : 'value1',
  getPrefix() + '[var_name_2]' : 'value2',
}

What am I doing wrong? Or maybbe it is impossible to set object property name using js experession?

Thank you
