I am trying to call an object method from an object (the same object) property definition to no avail.
var objectName = {
method : function() {
return "boop";
},
property : this.method()
};
In this example I want to assign the return value of objectName.method ("boop") to objectName.property.
I have tried objectName.method()
, method()
, window.objectName.method()
, along with the bracket notation variants of all those as well, ex. this["method"]
, with no luck.
