Это, как правило, не самое эффективное решение, но оно делает то, что мне нужно. Простые тестовые примеры ниже ...
function clone(obj, clones) {
// Makes a deep copy of 'obj'. Handles cyclic structures by
// tracking cloned obj's in the 'clones' parameter. Functions
// are included, but not cloned. Functions members are cloned.
var new_obj,
already_cloned,
t = typeof obj,
i = 0,
l,
pair;
clones = clones || [];
if (obj === null) {
return obj;
}
if (t === "object" || t === "function") {
// check to see if we've already cloned obj
for (i = 0, l = clones.length; i < l; i++) {
pair = clones[i];
if (pair[0] === obj) {
already_cloned = pair[1];
break;
}
}
if (already_cloned) {
return already_cloned;
} else {
if (t === "object") { // create new object
new_obj = new obj.constructor();
} else { // Just use functions as is
new_obj = obj;
}
clones.push([obj, new_obj]); // keep track of objects we've cloned
for (key in obj) { // clone object members
if (obj.hasOwnProperty(key)) {
new_obj[key] = clone(obj[key], clones);
}
}
}
}
return new_obj || obj;
}
Тест циклического массива ...
a = []
a.push("b", "c", a)
aa = clone(a)
aa === a //=> false
aa[2] === a //=> false
aa[2] === a[2] //=> false
aa[2] === aa //=> true
Функциональный тест ...
f = new Function
f.a = a
ff = clone(f)
ff === f //=> true
ff.a === a //=> false
