Saving geocoder results to an array - Closure Trouble

Question

Okay, so I have searched a while for a solution to this problem, but I have found nothing specifically on this. And before you point me to Google\'s Terms of Service, pleas

Answer 1

This is a FAQ. Geocoding is asynchronous. You need to save the results in the callback function which runs when they are returned from the server.

Something like (not tested)

Updated to use function closure

function geocodeAddress(address, i) {
  geocoder.geocode( { 'address': address}, function(results, status) {
    if (status == google.maps.GeocoderStatus.OK) {
       var latLong = results[0].geometry.location;
       coordinates = latLong.lat() + "," + latLong.lng();
       adressdaten[i][6] = coordinates;
    } else {
       alert('Geocode of '+address+' was not successful for the following reason: ' + status);
    }
  });
}

var geocoder = new google.maps.Geocoder();
for (i=1; i<adressdaten.length-1; i++)  {
  //Save array-data in String to pass to the Geocoder
  var adresse = adressdaten[i][3] + " " + adressdaten[i][4];
  var coordinates;
  geocodeAddress(addresse, i); 

}
