Updating observable's value without triggering update

attheodo opened this issue · 1 comments

I don't think it's possible to "silently" update an observable's value. Such a use-case kinda popped-up for me today...

Do you think it makes sense to add it to Interstellar's API?

It's not quite a use case I'd like to make possible. This brings quite a bit of overhead into the api (now you have to think about "should I notify or not?" every time you update a variable) and also introduces tons of possibilities for bugs where labels don't update, completion handlers are not triggered, some memory cleanup is not called...

Can you give me some more details about your use case?
