Can DekuUpdate::update be applied recursively?

[goto40]

We have data structures with structs containing structs: A{b=B{c=C{...}}}. We defined an update attribute in the inner struct C (to update some data in C). We call A::update(), but it seems not to call the update methods of the inner structs. Calling a.b.c.update() works as expected with C being updated.

We did not find infos about our use case in the docs. How is it intended to be used?

World #415 help?

[goto40]

Yes.
This would help ("Add attribute update_also to propagate update to nested struct/enums")

[goto40]

Thanks

[goto40]

It is not critical for us

(why is it not propagating by default?)

[wcampbell0x2a]

I'm not sure why it doesn't by default. our DekuRead and DekuWrite does. Maybe it should.
