Module, setInterval and this..

Hi Martin,

Yes - it should be possible. The issue is probably with what happens to the this variable when called from setInterval. It's a standard JS thing...

You could try something like this:

Clock.prototype.start = function() {
  var me = this;
  setInterval(function() { me.tick(); },1000);
}

This will define a function for each setInterval, but it'll be relatively small.

I'm not sure quite what you're planning, but I wonder how many clock modules a user might have? If it's 1 or 2 it might not matter if the function is duplicated.
