javascript'this'

1.Scope of this in object:
 

var b = {a:outerFunc, b:"b"}
function outerFunc(base) {
    var outer=this;
    var punc="!";

    function returnString(ext) {
        //console.log(this===outer);
        console.log(outer);
        console.log(this);
        return base + ext + punc;
    }
    
    return returnString;
}

var baseString = b.a("Hello ");// method 'a' is called from the scope of object 'b', 'this' refer to the object of 'b'
, so outer will be assigned object 'b'

baseString("World"); //baseString is called from the window scope, the 'this' in the mothod of 'returnString' now
  refer to the window object

 

var o={}; // declaring new object
o.name="moon";
o.method=function () {
    alert(this.name);
};
 
var x={};
x.name="sun";
x.method=o.method;
x.method();//Alert sun here

 

var o={}; // declaring new object
o.name="moon";
o.method=function () {
    alert(this.name);
};
var x={};
x.name="sun";
o.method.call(x);//alert "sun here"
