Angular $q promise Error: object is not a function

Question

I have a factory method which has $http(async task) so i used $q promise and the following error has occurred TypeError: object is not a function @line: return $q(funtion....)

written using Promise API:

service.fetch = function(query) {
    return $q(function(resolve, reject){
        $http({ url: srcset[query], method: 'GET'}).success(function(db){
            resolve(db);
        });
    });
};

but if written with Deferred API:

service.fetch = function(query) {
    var deferred = $q.defer();
    $http({ url: srcset[query], method: 'GET'}).success(function(db){
        deferred.resolve(db);
    });
    return deferred.promise;
};

It works fine

I have written exactly as mentioned in https://docs.angularjs.org/api/ng/service/$q

Can anyone point out where have i gone wrong.

angular version discrepancy? code.angularjs.org/1.2.25/docs/api/ng/service/$q is different — O'Mutt

The docs you link to are the latest and may not be the correct version of angular. Made that mistake before.
