I wonder how can I return value from .done function to the outer function which calls the .done function itself. For example,

var func1 = function(){
    var HowToGrabThis = func2().done(function(obj)
    {
        // some code
        return 'test'
    });
    alert (HowToGrabThis) // Should print 'test'
}

You can't. It's a callback. Put the `alert` inside the second `function`. – tckmn Nov 14 '15 at 19:17
Alert is only for testing reasons. What I actually need is to return HowToGrabThis from func1 – Edgar Navasardyan Nov 14 '15 at 19:32
Again, you can't. It's impossible. Put the code that requires that information inside the second function. – tckmn Nov 14 '15 at 19:33
