Static variables in JavaScript

我如何在Javascript中创建静态变量?


If you come from a class-based, statically typed object-oriented language (like Java, C++ or C#) I assume that you are trying to create a variable or method associated to a "type" but not to an instance.

An example using a "classical" approach, with constructor functions maybe could help you to catch the concepts of basic OO JavaScript:

function MyClass () { // constructor function
  var privateVariable = "foo";  // Private variable 

  this.publicVariable = "bar";  // Public variable 

  this.privilegedMethod = function () {  // Public Method
    alert(privateVariable);
  };
}

// Instance method will be available to all instances but only load once in memory 
MyClass.prototype.publicMethod = function () {    
  alert(this.publicVariable);
};

// Static variable shared by all instances
MyClass.staticProperty = "baz";

var myInstance = new MyClass();

staticProperty is defined in the MyClass object (which is a function) and has nothing to do with its created instances, JavaScript treats functions as first-class objects, so being an object, you can assign properties to a function.


You might take advantage of the fact that JS functions are also objects -- which means they can have properties.

For instance, quoting the example given on the (now vanished) article Static variables in Javascript:

function countMyself() {
    // Check to see if the counter has been initialized
    if ( typeof countMyself.counter == 'undefined' ) {
        // It has not... perform the initialization
        countMyself.counter = 0;
    }

    // Do something stupid to indicate the value
    alert(++countMyself.counter);
}

If you call that function several time, you'll see the counter is being incremented.

And this is probably a much better solution than poluting the global namespace with a global variable.


And here is another possible solution, based on a closure : Trick to use static variables in javascript :

var uniqueID = (function() {
   var id = 0; // This is the private persistent value
   // The outer function returns a nested function that has access
   // to the persistent value.  It is this nested function we're storing
   // in the variable uniqueID above.
   return function() { return id++; };  // Return and increment
})(); // Invoke the outer function after defining it.

Which gets you the same kind of result -- except, this time, the incremented value is returned, instead of displayed.


你通过一个IIFE(立即调用的函数表达式)来完成它:

var incr = (function () {
    var i = 1;

    return function () {
        return i++;
    }
})();

incr(); // returns 1
incr(); // returns 2
