Javascript replacing single quote with empty string -


this odd one! kind of want reason replace function isn't working correctly because of font. i've never seen issue before, , wonder if i'm overlooking something!?

i have following variable set static text '. 

var lastname = "o'donnell";

in browser, console.log(lastname) outputs: o’donnell. instead of o'donnell. therefore, following replace method isn't working.

screenshot: enter image description here

return lastname.replace(/'/g, '')

what doing wrong?

the character you're trying replace isn't same 1 in name.

best remove non alpha numeric characters instead, cater names such as:

  • o'neill
  • st. mary's

try:

lastname.replace(/\w/g, '')

'hasOwnProperty' in javascript -

i use obj.hasownproperty judge whether object has property, when replaced obj[prop] !== undefined , not normal implementation, ask, why behind method can not use it? object.hasownproperty(prop); object[prop] !== undefined; obj[prop] !== undefined wrong 2 reasons: you can explicitly set property undefined , obj[prop] = undefined; . obj.hasownproperty(prop) return true in case. obj[prop] follow prototype chain, return property that's inherited. obj.hasownproperty(prop) returns true if property exists directly in object, returns false inherited properties.

android - Unable to generate FCM token from dynamically instantiated Firebase -

our business logic requires instantiate firebase during runtime. fetch firebase credentials (app id, api key etc.) default firebase location after knowing user's public key , create firebase instance using credentials. this means there 2 firebase instances used within app: the default "index" firebase gives credentials second the actual firebase intend use point forward the second firebase initialised this: firebaseapp app = firebaseapp.initializeapp(<context>, <options>, <app_label>); our problem traditional method of retrieving fcm token using firebaseinstanceidservice , ontokenrefresh() fails since ontokenrefresh() method called first firebase instance. directly calling string token = firebaseinstanceid.getinstance(app).gettoken(); returns null never ready when called. have tried polling test if token generated @ point. no luck. how can generate fcm token reliably firebase instance instantiated during runtime? i...
