JavaScript pass scope to another function

Question

Is it possible to somehow pass the scope of a function to another?

For example,

function a(){
   var x = 5;
   var obj = {..};
   b()         


        

Answer 1

Have you tried something like this:

function a(){
   var x = 5;
   var obj = {..};
   b(this);
}
function b(fnA){
   //access x or obj....
   fnA.obj = 6;
}

If you can stand function B as a method function A then do this:

function a(){
   var x = 5;
   var obj = {..};
   b(this);

   this.b = function (){
      // "this" keyword is still === function a
   }
}
