I have this object:
var a={
objectFoo:{member1:"x",member2:"y"}
}
I want to make it have an additional identical child:
{
objectFoo:{member1:"x",member2:"y"}
,objectBar:{member1:"x",member2:"y"}
}
If I do an assigment:
a.objectBar=a.objectFoo
it creates an unwanted link.
The way I handle it now is:
a.objectBar=JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(a.objectFoo))
This works, but in my novice mind feels wrong. It's like I am instructing the machine to do complex parsing stuff instead of just moving data from one point to another. Is my thinking too low level for javascript? Or is there a better way to do this?
