Is their any way to create mutidimensional arrays in Javascript with Non Numeric Idex?
like the structure
optionList[0]['id'] = "equals";
optionList[0]['name'] = "Equals";
optionList[1]['id'] = "not_equals_str";
optionList[1]['name'] = "Does Not Equal";
optionList[2]['id'] = "contains";
optionList[2]['name'] = "Contains";
Yes, at least some kind of object that will do what you want even if it's not really a "multidimensional array".
You create a mododimensionnal array.
And you populate it with simple javascript objects, which you can consider as some kind of maps for many purposes.
var optionList = [];
optionList.push({});
optionList[0]['id'] = "equals";
...
You can create it in one go :
var optionList = [
{id:"equals", name:"Equals"},
...
];
In JavaScript you should use objects as arrays with non numeric indices. So your structure will look as follows:
var optionList = [
{
id : "equals",
name : "Equals"
},
{
id : "not_equals_str",
name : "Does Not Equal"
},
{
id : "contains",
name : "Contains"
}
];
Those are arrays that contain objects. It would look like this:
var optionList = [
{},
{},
{}
];
Yes You can always have nesting of Objects.
optionList = [{
id: "equals",
name: "Equals"
},{
id: "not_equals_str",
name: "Does not Equal"
},{
id: "contains",
name: "Contains"
}]
Yes. You have to define an empty array and then push those details as object into it.
var optionList = [];
optionList.push({id: 'equals', name: 'equals'});
optionList.push({id: 'not_equals_str', name: 'Does Not Equal'});
Hope this helps.
