Method: PEROBS::Object#mark_as_modified

Defined in:
lib/perobs/Object.rb

#mark_as_modified ⇒ Object

Call this method to manually mark the object as modified. This is necessary if you are using the ‘@’ notation to access instance variables during assignment operations (=, +=, -=, etc.). To avoid having to call this method you can use the self. notation.

@foo = 42      # faster but requires call to mark_as_modified()
self.foo = 42  # somewhat slower

IMPORTANT: If you use @foo = … and forget to call mark_as_modified() your data will only be modified in memory but might not be persisted into the database!
