Module: Valuables::DeepFreeze

Defined in:
lib/valuables/deep_freeze.rb

Overview

Deep freezing functionality for Ruby objects

Freeze Ruby objects like a regular #freeze would do, but also freeze any included values. This comes with support for commonly used Ruby classes, such as Hash, Array and Range.

To make custom objects work with DeepFreeze, define a #deep_freeze method.
