I'm trying to increment my state variable, but whenever I do so an error pops up which says that the variable state is undefined. I defined my variable inside the constructor. Obviously something is going on in the setState function.
Here is the code which renders an error:
displayDiv(){
var arr=[];
if (this.state.flag[2]){
this.setState({counter:counter+4}); // error:undefined
for (let i = this.state.counter-4; i < this.state.counter; i++)
arr.push(this.state.arrayHeader[0].content);
}
}
return(
arr.map(function(item,i){
return (
);
})
);
}
Here is the defined variable inside the constructor:
constructor(props){
super(props);
this.state = {
arrayHeader:[],
arraytag1:[],
arraytag2:[],
counter:0,
flag:[false,false,false]
}
}
Answer
Your counter +4
points nowhere.
It should be this.state.counter + 4
Also, if you are calling this function on the render()
make sure it has been previously binded, you can do that like this on the constructor:
this.displayDiv = this.displayDiv.bind(this);
