Hello, I have a js function that loops through and resolves selected cases. I'm trying to allocate 3 seconds for each case to resolve before attempting to resolve the next case. Here's the function I'm using:
function ResolveCases(statusCode)
{
var caseIds = SelectedControlSelectedItemIds;
alert('About to Resolve/Close ' + caseIds.length + ' case(s)');
for(var i=0; i<caseIds.length; i++)
{
var isLast = (i === (caseIds.length - 1));
setTimeout(function() {
debugger;
ResolveCase(statusCode, caseIds[i], isLast);
}, (3000 * i));
}
}
I'm new to using anonymous functions in this way in js. I tested the code above with 2 cases in js debug mode. However, when the debugger statement gets hit above, the "i" incrementer = 2. This results in an "undefined" caseId being sent to the ResolveCase function because there are only 2 cases in the list, so caseIds[2] is out of range.
This seems like a weird error. It seems to be straightforward that the "i" incrementer in setTimeout function should be iterated in a normal way. Is there something about the nature of using anonymous functions in for loops that I don't understand?
