Why does Obs not have a getValue() method which can be gotten from the concept type?

I am wondering why such a method is not available on the Obs class

What would be the return type for Obs.getValue()

ssmusoke · May 4, 2021, 8:04am

@dkayiwa The value from the correct getValueXX method

What would be the exact method signature? Hopefully you are not looking for Obs.getValueAsString()

@dkayiwa Now that you mention it

Obs.getValue() - Object, and Obs.getValueAsString() would be an excellent but not critical addition

FWIW, Obs.getValueAsString() already exists.

@dkayiwa Thanks!! I had not seen that
