The first parameter to the function define(moduleid, ...) only accepts a string and not a variable as input.
Minimal example:
//
// Does not work:
var moduleid = 'Mymodule';
var dependencies = ['dependency1', 'dependency2'];
define(moduleid, dependencies, function (dep1, dep2) {
return 'Module ' + moduleid + ' with dependencies ' + dependencies.join(', ') + '.';
});
//
// Works:
define('Mymodule', ['dependency1', 'dependency2'], function (dep1, dep2) {
return 'Module ' + 'Mymodule' + ' with dependencies ' + 'dependency1, dependency2' + '.';
});
