General function to set selection state of another app for mashups

[jgunders]

Trying to write a general function to set the selection state in another app when writing mashups.

	var stateListener = function(theApp) {	 	
	theApp.clearAll();
    	var selFields = this.selections;
		
		if (selFields!=null){
		$.each(selFields, function(key, value) {
			var valArray=[];
			$.each(value.selectedValues, function(key,value){
				valArray.push(value.qName);
			})
			theApp.field(value.fieldName).selectValues(valArray, true, true);
		});
		}		
  	};

So trying to use it like this:

var selState = app.selectionState( );    //get state of app

selState.OnData.bind( stateListener, app1 );    //bind to function with argument of app1 to set it's state

But it's not calling the listener. 

Ideas appreciated!

Found a work-around but not that happy with it.  Instead of an argument I set a global scope var to the application:

	var theApp;

	function stateListener() {	 	
		theApp.clearAll();
		var selFields = this.selections;

		if (selFields!=null){
		$.each(selFields, function(key, value) {
			var valArray=[];
			$.each(value.selectedValues, function(key,value){
				valArray.push(value.qName);
			})
			theApp.field(value.fieldName).selectValues(valArray, true, true);
		});
		}		
	}

and use the function like:

var selState = app.selectionState( ); //get state of app
theApp = app1; //set global to app1
selState.OnData.bind( stateListener ); //bind to function
