Syntax for getting "options" values from $.widget( "ns.plugin"

[Jeff-Schafer]

On the "Why Use the Widget Factory?" page, https://learn.jquery.com/jquery-ui/widget-factory/why-use-the-widget-factory/, the last example, what is the correct way to get the value of each "option"?

   $.widget( "ns.plugin", { 
       // Default options.
       options: {
           param1: "foo",
           param2: "bar",
           param3: "baz"
       },

       _create: function() {
           // Options are already merged and stored in this.options
           // Plugin logic goes here.
       } 
   });

Using this.options.param1 will get the correct value for this one entry, but a user should be able to get all of the values in options like an array.

Using the following code:

  $.each(this.options, function(key, value) {
     alert(key + ":" + value);
  });

returns:

• classes:[object Object]
• disabled:false
• create:null
• param1:foo
• param2:bar
• param3:baz

I expect the last 3 output, but not the first 3.

What is the proper syntax to just get:

• param1:foo
• param2:bar
• param3:baz
