Description
Returns true if the supplied variable is defined, false if it is not defined (undefined).
Basic Example:
util.isDef(var); |
Note: if the variable you are testing has not been declared in anyway, this will throw an exception. If it has been declared but iniitalized as undefined (e.g., not set in any way), the code will process.
