Function.prototype.bind.apply（）无法按预期工作

Question

I've a function myfunc and want to bind it to a specific this argument and other arguments to bind as a single array, not parameters list (cause I get the parameters list as an argument of function, where this code is executed). For that purpose I use apply on bind as follows:

var myfunc = function(arg1, arg2){
    alert("this = " + this + ", arg1 = " + arg1 + ", arg2 = " + arg2);
}
var bindedMyfunc = myfunc.bind.apply("mythis", ["param1", "param2"]);
bindedMufunc();

This results in Uncaught TypeError: Bind must be called on a function .

What am I doing wrong? Could you explain in detail, what's going onwhen I run this code, cause reality seems to contradict my opinion on that?

Summary of answers: Seems that bind itself has its own this argument, which is the function, it is called on. Eg when you say myfunc.bind(args) , bind 's this is myfunc .

By calling apply on bind I've mistakingly assigned bind 's this to "mythis", which is not a function and bind can't be called on it.

So, the solution is to use

myfunc.bind.apply(myfunc, ["mythis"].concat(["param1", "param2"]))

Also, if you want to call the binded myfunc right off, you could say:

myfunc.apply.bind(myfunc)("mythis", ["param1", "param2"])

but this doesn't suffice my case, cause I need to pass the binded function as an argument to addEventListener .

Thanks for your help, guys!

Answer 1

You should use the function as the first parameter to the apply method. The use of myfunc.bind doesn't associate the function with the call, it has the effect of Function.prototype.bind , and you can just as well use that.

The first parameter for the bind method ( thisArg ) should be the first item in the array.

var bindedMyfunc = Function.prototype.bind.apply(myfunc, ["mythis", "param1", "param2"]);

Answer 2

Seems that bind itself has its own this argument, which is the function, it is called on. Eg when you say myfunc.bind(args) , bind 's this is myfunc .

Exactly. If you want to apply bind , then you have to apply it to the function (the first parameter), and pass the bind arguments (including the intended this value) as an array (the second paramter):

(Function.prototype.bind).apply(myfunc, ["mythis", "param1", "param2"])
// which is equivalent to
myfunc.bind("mythis", "param1", "param2")
(…args) => myfunc.call("mythis", "param1", "param2", …args) // ES6 syntax

However, there is another way to solve your problem: bind apply to the function, and partially apply the proposed apply arguments:

(Function.prototype.apply).bind(myfunc, "mythis", ["param1", "param2"])
// which is equivalent to
(…args) => myfunc.apply("mythis", ["param1", "param2"], …args) // ES6 syntax

Answer 3

Maybe you want to bind apply rather than apply ing bind ?

var bindedMyfunc = Function.prototype.apply.bind(myfunc);
bindedMyfunc('obj', [1, 2]); // this = obj, arg1 = 1, arg2 = 2

I often use this pattern to make hasOwnProperty checks shorter without being shadowable;

var has = Function.prototype.call.bind(Object.hasOwnProperty);
has({foo:1}, 'foo'); // true
has({foo:1}, 'bar'); // false
