jQuery UI, detect if options have been entered?

Question

does any one know how to check if the called ui (custom) has also options inputed or using the defaults?

for example:

$('#selector').myUI();//does not have options.
$('#selector').myUI({option:'foo',{op:'bar'}});//ui has options.
$('#selector').myUI('value');//ui has options.

so if i was on:

(function($) {
$.widget("ui.myUI", {
   options = this.options;
   //check if options have been entered or the default values have been used?
})

});

Hope that i am not 2 confusing :)

Answer 1

My guess is the only way to find out is to compare them against the default values.

But I'm not that familiar with the inner workings of jQuery.

Answer 2

To check whether an option has been specified, you can write

if (options.hasOwnProperty('someProperty'))
