My current issue involves my lack of experience with JSON and JavaScript, as I am trying to dynamically build a JSON object and populate it with strings. Since the incoming strings are unsorted, I need the ability to create a string array. I have devised the following design, but I am encountering an error.
addToDumpObject: function (type, v, dump) {
if (v instanceof A.entity.Entity) {
dump.type.push(v.toString());
} else if (v instanceof jQuery) {
dump.type.push(v);
} else if ($.isArray(v)) {
for (var i in v) {
A.util.addToDumpObject(type, v[i], dump);
}
return;
} else {
}
}
The 'dump' variable represents my JSON object, where 'v' could be an instance of an entity, an array, or a jQuery object. 'Type' specifies the entity type, and I aim to organize the values accordingly.
dump{
"Permission" : [ "PHONE", "SMS" ]
"String" : [ "MN7", "AT", "DE" ]
};
The error message I receive is "Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'push' of undefined." I believe this is due to incorrect usage of the identifier, but I am unsure how to rectify it. When attempting 'dump.[type].push()', I encounter an error related to misplaced brackets.
