I'm struggling accessing values that get returned via a nested inline callback function, from outside.

Below is a snipped of the code which I bound to. To be explicit I like to access all bbb results.

myfunction(){

    var allB = [];

    getFunctionA(para1, function (aaa, error) {
        for (var index = 0; index < aaa.length; ++index) {
            getFunctionB(para1, aaa[index].id, function (bbb, error) {
                allB = allB.concat(bbb);                    
            });
        }
    });


    //How to work with all bbb's 

}

Any idea how to access these values? allB = allB.concat(bbb); will not give me the values (allB is empty).

Those functions are probably **asynchronous**. – Pointy Nov 01 '17 at 16:33
What does `getFunctionA` and `getFunctionB` do? – evolutionxbox Nov 01 '17 at 16:33

@Pointy OP has confirmed functions are asynchronous. – evolutionxbox Nov 01 '17 at 16:57
@evolutionxbox the possible duplicate is useful, but not answering the question/problem. – flor1an Nov 01 '17 at 17:28
