get value from success in ajax

Question

I get information from base(MongoDB). In success part I get a tmp_value. How to get this tmp_value out off $.ajax. I am meaning, that tmp_result must be 10.

**javascript**

    var tmp_object = null;  
    var tmp_result = null;
    $.ajax({url: VASERVER_API_LOC + '/visualization/' + visid + '/',
           type: 'GET',
           contentType: "application/json",
           data: tmp_object,
           success: function(tmp_object) { 
           var tmp_value = tmp_object.features; // tmp_value is 10
            });     


    });
tmp_result = tmp_value;
console.log(tmp_result);  //must be 10

@Quentin But the question you linked is a duplicate as well :P — Patsy Issa, Oct 23 '13 at 11:22
tmp_value should be global variable to access it anywhere in code.. — codebreaker, Oct 23 '13 at 11:23

Try this...

var tmp_object = null;  
var tmp_result = null;
$.ajax({
    url: VASERVER_API_LOC + '/visualization/' + visid + '/',
    type: 'GET',
    contentType: "application/json",
    data: tmp_object,
    success: function(tmp_object) {
        if(tmp_object.d == 10) {
            var tmp_value = tmp_object.d; // .d Should should contain data sent back
        }
    }
});
tmp_result = tmp_value;
console.log(tmp_result);  //must be 10
