General pattern to update a key?
Closed this issue · 2 comments
Because of the reliance on string keys, it can be tricky to manage updates to a value that affect its key. For the identity map I made in this gist I came up with an update method that makes it pretty straightforward to keep the key in sync when mutations happen. Is this a pattern that could be useful across the library where string keys are in use?
I agree that reliance on string keys in JavaScript is sometimes troublesome but I would refrain from implementing that in the library since it's a core language feature. Most of the people is used to that.
Also, I would like to hear other people opinion on this.
