I'm trying to set some dynamic properties to a variable in typescript. The problem I'm facing is when I try to set it I run into the error "uncaught TypeError: Cannot set properties of undefined (setting 'varname')" It needs to be set on this variable as it is used to render some other data on the page, I also cannot define a model for the data as I do not know how many properties will be returned or there name/values. How can I assign dynamic properties to my variable. Ex code // will be dynamic properties in use case var tValue = 500 var tName = "donuts" var tArray = [2, 4, 9, 55]; window.onload = (event) => { let x; // trying to set variables will throw error cannot set properties of undefned x.tree = tValue; x.header = tName; x.time = tArray; } Example JS Fiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/mtj6L3zq/ Continue reading...
