I'm trying to add another asynchronous call to the contract of an existing Deferred before its state is set to success. Rather than try and explain this in English, see the following pseudo-code:
$.when(
$.ajax({
url: someUrl,
data: data,
async: true,
success: function (data, textStatus, jqXhr) {
console.log('Call 1 done.')
jqXhr.pipe(
$.ajax({
url: someUrl,
data: data,
async: true,
success: function (data, textStatus, jqXhr) {
console.log('Call 2 done.');
},
})
);
},
}),
$.ajax({
url: someUrl,
data: data,
async: true,
success: function (data, textStatus, jqXhr) {
console.log('Call 3 done.');
},
})
).then(function(){ console.log('All done!'); });
Basically, Call 2 is dependent on the results of Call 1. I want Call 1 and Call 3 to be executed in parallel. Once all 3 calls are complete, I want the All Done code to execute. My understanding is that Deferred.pipe() is supposed to chain another asynchronous call to the given deferred, but in practice, I always get Call 2 completing after All Done.
Does anyone know how to get jQuery's Deferred to do what I want? Hopefully the solution doesn't involve ripping the code apart into chunks any further.
Thanks for any help.
