And here is the sum up version, implemented by a mixin which could be added somewhere in the class hierarchy, or may even be applied to an existing class hierarchy by using qx.Class.patch:
qx.Mixin.define("MCallGetter", { members : { callGetter : function(propertyName) { var methodName = 'get'+qx.lang.String.firstUp(propertyName); if(qx.lang.Type.isFunction(object[methodName])) { value = object[methodName].call(object); return value; } else { return null; } } }); All object instances of classes having the mixin may now simply execute: var value = object.callGetter('dewpoint'); Regards Dietrich Am 16.02.2015 um 08:55 schrieb Dietrich Streifert: > qooxdoo brings It's own method for capitalizing the first letter of a > string, so you would write: > > var methodName = 'get'+qx.lang.String.firstUp(theRawPropertyID); > > You could even be smarter by checking if the "introspected" method is > a function: > > if(qx.lang.Type.isFunction(object[methodName])) { > value = object[methodName].call(object); > return value; > } > else { > return null; > } ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download BIRT iHub F-Type - The Free Enterprise-Grade BIRT Server from Actuate!
