Remove GetQvObject callback for input boxes etc

Mon, 26 Jan 2026 18:19:17 GMT

I cannot figure out how to remove a callback function that i have set. I want the callback to be triggered one time and then removed.

I add the callback like this:

var VarCallback = function (){
     this.SetVariable( "0", 0); // how do we remove call to this callback function? it is called every time the variable is updated!
}
function CloseFavourite(inputBoxId){
     pek = _pek1;
     var inputbox = pek.GetQvObject( inputBoxId, VarCallback);
}

This works but the problem is that VarCallback() gets called every time the variable in inputBoxId gets updated.

Is there a way to remove callbacks assigned using GetQvObject ?

Bonus points: can a callback function be removed that was assigned using Qva.AddExtension ?

I fixed the callback problem using a variable within a closure around the callback. I still am curious if there is an easy way to remove a callback though. Hopefully without modifying prototype.
