Body
copied!<p>I'm working on a keyboard widget for a project, i'm extending <code>$.ui.mouse</code>. I need click behavior (not triggered by _mouseCapture). I'm having difficulties to get back <code>this.options</code> inside it. See code blocks below :</p> <pre><code>$.widget("ui.keyboard", $.ui.mouse, { widgetEventPrefix: "keyboard", options: { [...] }, [...], _create : function() { this.element.bind('click.'+this.widgetName, this._mouseClick); }, _mouseClick: function(e) { // how do i get this.options here } }); </code></pre> <p>Is it best to do this :</p> <pre><code>$.widget("ui.keyboard", $.ui.mouse, { widgetEventPrefix: "keyboard", options: { [...] }, [...], _create : function() { var self = this; this.element.bind('click.'+this.widgetName, function(e) { self._mouseClick(e, self); }); }, _mouseClick: function(e, self) { // how do i get this.options here -> self.options } }); </code></pre> <p>Or this :</p> <pre><code>$.widget("ui.keyboard", $.ui.mouse, { widgetEventPrefix: "keyboard", options: { [...] }, [...], _create : function() { this.element.bind('click.'+this.widgetName, this._mouseClick); }, _mouseClick: function(e) { var self = $.data(this, "keyboard"); // how do i get this.options here -> self.options } }); </code></pre> <p>I had trouble with the last one when i try to trigger it manually $.data is not up unless i trigger a click on <code>this.element</code> (which is quite logic).</p> <p>Is there some other ways ? Which one is the best to pick ?</p> <p>Thanks,</p>
