Summary

Removes a watchpoint set with the watch() method.

Method of Object
Implemented in JavaScript 1.8.6
ECMAScript Edition none

Syntax

unwatch(prop)

Parameters

prop
The name of a property of the object to stop watching.

Description

The JavaScript debugger has functionality similar to that provided by this method, as well as other debugging options. For information on the debugger, see Venkman.

By default, this method is inherited by every object descended from Object.

Note: The reason for unwatch() to take the property name prop as its only parameter is due to the "single handler allowing" behavior of the watch() method.

Examples

See watch().
