[Vue3] computed.globalVersoin
In Vue 3’s reactivity engine (as of v3.5), globalVersion
is a single, ever‐incrementing counter that bumps whenever any reactive value changes. Each computed ref (ComputedRefImpl
) carries its own computed.globalVersion
. When you access a computed, Vue first checks:
if (computed.globalVersion === globalVersion) {
// no reactive dependency has changed
// skip running the computed’s getter
return
}
If they differ, Vue knows something in the entire app has mutated since the last time that computed ran, so it (1) updates computed.globalVersion
to match globalVersion
, (2) re-runs the getter, and (3) only if the result changed does it bump the computed’s own dep.version
to notify dependents. This global/version‐based gating lets Vue cheaply skip computed getters when nothing relevant has mutated.
