Hi All I'm looking for suggestions of how to retrieve values asynchronously:
In the synchronous world I have var num1 = Object1.retrieveNum1(); var num2 = Object2.retrieveNum2(); var num3 = Object3.retrieveNum3(); var result = (num1 + num2) / num3; but since functions Object1.retrieveNum1,Object2.retrieveNum2 & Object3.retrieveNum3 retrieve data from the database or represent long calculation I need to pass callbacks, that leads me to below Object1.retrieveNum1Async(function(num1){ Object2.retrieveNum2Async(function(num2){ Object3.retrieveNum3Async(function(num3){ var result = (num1 + num2) / num3; }); }); }); is this the idiomatic way of doing this or there is something better thanks Bobi -- -- Job Board: http://jobs.nodejs.org/ Posting guidelines: https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Mailing-List-Posting-Guidelines You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "nodejs" group.
