GMaps JS Geocode: Using/Passing Variables With Asynchronous Geocode Function?

Question

I have an array list of location objects, and I am using some of them to build a full address, and then geocode that. Once I receive the OK status I am then placing a marke

Answer 1

The simplest thing is probably to create a local scope block within your loop so that locationName actually refers to a different variable for every time you add a delegate/anonymous function to do the geocoding. Placing the var in the loop does not create a new instance of the variable, the var declaration essentially gets moved to the top of the enclosing scope block.

for(var i=0; i<myObjList.length; i++){
    var fullAddress = myObjList[i].Address + ", " + myObjList[i].City + ", " + myObjList[i].State + ", " + myObjList[i].Zip;
    //begin scope block
    (function(){
        var locationName = myObjList[i].LocationName;
        var yourObject = myObjList[i];
         //etc.
        geocoder.geocode( ...);
    //end scope block
    })();
}

Edit:

Or if you were using some framework/ that allows you to pass an anonymous function to execute code for each item in an array, you get that kind of scoping issue taken care for you automatically.
