A deferred problem or something else?

JaysonLindahl · ‎11-03-2018

I'm not sure what is going on, or why. I'm sure it has something to do with the deferred results, but don't really understand. The qryTask.executeForCount is within a for loop and should execute for each key value that it finds. I am passing in a single query to execute, but it seems to execute for every key for every key. If there are 4 keys, then is executes 4 times for each key. I can't get the results until it completes running, then I'm left with 4 results, 4 times. I would assume that it would run just once each time since I'm giving it one query each time.

Please help.

for (var key in this.layerList[0].layerObject.layerDefinitions){
   if (this.layerList[0].layerObject.layerDefinitions.hasOwnProperty(key)) {
      var query = new Query();
      query.outFields = ["*"];
      var url = this.layerList[0].layerObject.url + "/" + key;
      query.where = this.layerList[0].layerObject.layerDefinitions[key];
      query.returnGeometry = false;
      query.outSpatialReference = this.map.spatialReference;
      var qryTask = new QueryTask(url);
      qryTask.executeForCount(query,lang.hitch(this,function(results){

         console.log(results);
      }));
   }
}

One way to solve this would be to use promise all in order to determine when the query tasks are complete. Here's an example showing this approach. In this case along with the count of features I also returned the definition expression and sub layer url just for context.

I'm having the same issue. Did you find a solution?
