can.isValueLike

  • Edit on GitHub

Set to true to show than an object is usable like an atomic value (a number, string, boolean, or undefined value).

@@can.isValueLike = true

Shows that this object can be used as an atomic value; it may make sense to also implement valueOf() and @@can.getValue()

In the case of a MapLike, an object is ValueLike if and only if:

  • it always returns the same value from getValue; and
  • the same value that is set from setValue is returned by getValue
