If you need to use the passed-in function, then you want to use onComplete.call(this, data); That is the same as this.doStuff(), except that you can use the passed-in function no matter what it is.

I appreciate your help and maybe I am missing something but your example isn't using the onComplete callback. It is calling doStuff directly. If you change this.doStuff(data) to onComplete(data), (this === c$.oTestScope) will return false. I agree that your syntax is much cleaner. If I can get it to work I'll use it.

I know you've already chosen your solution, but please give this revision a look. It cleanly fixes your problem with this without having to use any extra closures or temporary variables.

Improvements, fiddle, and comments.

| Nov 2, 2012 at 16:51 | comment | added | bconrad | The context option only seems to work when you call the function directly "context:onComplete". I can't see any way that you can have default functionality as well as callback functionality using this method. Here is that jsfiddle with the context option jsfiddle.net/RW4Ge/2. | |
