refresh variables using other function

[Nibbus]

Hello,

I need a function to alter some variables of other function, how can I do that?

ex:

function1 ()
{
    var a = 7;
    var b = 25;
    var c;
    var d;
 
    function2 (a, b); //Does a bunch of tests and refreshes c and d values
    alert(c); // --> should be 2 
    alert(d); // --> should be 1
}
 
function2 (a, b)
{
    if (a < 5)
    {
       this.c = 0;
    }
    elseif (a > 10)
    {
       this.c = 1;
    }
    else
    {
       this.c = 2;
    }
 
    if (b < 10)
    {
        this.d = 0;
    }
    elseif (b > 20)
    {
       this.d = 1 ;
    }
    else
    {
        this.d = 2;
    }
}
 
 

Putting c and d as global will solve the problem I think , but I would prefer to have these inside function1.

I tried var f = new function2(a,b) and then accecing by f.c and f.d but when alerting the value , it comes "undefined"


Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,

c and d are private variables. Unless the function is defined within the object function, it can't access them.

I worked it around by removing var c and d from function1.
Don´t know if it´s working in the same way, but at least show´s me c and d values using objf2.c and objf2.d ...


Thank you

only for you to mention :) that with that solution you create var c and d implicitly in the global scope ... so after setting them you could access them as global variables ...

kind regards
