Exception or error:
Can I dynamically call an object method having the method name as a string? I would imagine it like this:
var FooClass = function() {
this.smile = function() {};
}
var method = "smile";
var foo = new FooClass();
// I want to run smile on the foo instance.
foo.{mysterious code}(); // being executed as foo.smile();
How to solve:
if the name of the property is stored in a variable, use []
foo[method]();
###
Properties of objects can be accessed through the array notation:
var method = "smile";
foo[method](); // will execute the method "smile"
###
method can be call with eval
eval("foo." + method + "()");
might not be very good way.
###
When we call a function inside an object, we need provide the name of the function as a String.
var obj = {talk: function(){ console.log('Hi') }};
obj['talk'](); //prints "Hi"
obj[talk]()// Does not work
