Abfangen von Fehlern
try {
throw new Error('Hello World');
} catch (e) {
console.log(e);
} finally {

}
}

Promises

Promises
In Javascript, promises are objects which represent the pending result of
an asynchronous operation.
(Martin Fowler)


Promises
$.ajax({
url: ‘/my/url’
}).done(function (data) {
...
}).fail(function (data) {
...
}).always(function (data) {
...
});


Promises
function promisedFunc() {
var def = $.Deferred();
// do something asynchronous
// success
def.resolve();
// fail
def.reject();
return def.promise();
}


Promises
promisedFunc().done(function () {
// success
}).fail(function () {
// failure
}).always(function () {
// success & failure
});


Promises
$.when(
promisedFunc(),
promisedFunc()
).then(success, failure);
