I want to clone a function that increment the object instance name:

 

 

var _this = this;


_this.rouge1.visible = false;
_this.BT1.on('mousedown', function () {
if (_this.rouge1.visible == false) {
_this.rouge1.visible = true;
} else {
_this.rouge1.visible = false;
}

});


_this.rouge2.visible = false;

_this.BT2.on('mousedown', function () {
if (_this.rouge2.visible == false) {
_this.rouge2.visible = true;
} else {
_this.rouge2.visible = false;
}

});

 

 

so as to have un new function with object name BT3, BT4, BT5.... and rouge3, rouge4, rouge5....

 

 

_this.rouge3.visible = false;

_this.BT3.on('mousedown', function () {
if (_this.rouge3.visible == false) {
_this.rouge3.visible = true;
} else {
_this.rouge3.visible = false;
}

});

 

......

without duplicating the code by hand

how to do ? Thanks for your help

    No, you don't want to "clone a function". What you want is a single function that can operate on variable instance names.

     

    function initButtons(id) {
	var btn = _this["BT" + id];
	btn.myRouge = _this["rouge" + id];
	btn.myRouge.visible = false;
	btn.on("mousedown", function(evt) {
		evt.currentTarget.myRouge.visible = !evt.currentTarget.myRouge.visible;
	});
}

initButtons(1);
initButtons(2);
initButtons(3);

etc...
