State on IDidUpdate\WillUpdate

[amakurin]

I've found strange behaviour of states on IDidUpdate and IWillUpdate.
Did: prev-state is always same as current state.
Will: when i'm printing whole next-state object to console i'm seeing state that should be (realy will-state) but when i'm accessing it through (.-__om_state next-state) i recieve same state as current, same way as Did.
Maybe there is another "true" way to accessing this states...

How are you trying to set component state?

Note I'm still on the fence as to precisely what the life-cycle methods will expose, Om internals or React internals. I'm leaning towards Om internals - if you want React internals just use React.

(om/set-state! owner [:select-visible] true)
I guess it is Om way. But i didn't found something like om/get-state for accessing prev-state\next-state, so i'm using (.-__om_state next-state)

@amakurin ok, so this confirms my suspicion that we should hand Om users Om prev-state/next-state instead and not React's.

[amakurin]

Yep. I guess so.

As a data point: I'm doing the same thing to get the Om state, have never needed anything else out of the React state, and would appreciate getting it directly.

Fixed in master.
