*** ** * ** ***

An observable class that holds a primitive short.

Observable field classes may be used instead of creating an Observable object. It can also create a calculated field, depending on other fields:  

    public class MyDataObject {
         public final ObservableShort age = new ObservableShort();
         public final ObservableShort birthdayCount = new ObservableShort(age) {
             @Override
             public short get() { return (short)(age.get() + 1); }
         };
     }

Fields of this type should be declared final because bindings only detect changes in the field's value, not of the field itself.

This class is parcelable and serializable but callbacks are ignored when the object is parcelled / serialized. Unless you add custom callbacks, this will not be an issue because data binding framework always re-registers callbacks when the view is bound. A parceled ObservableBoolean will lose its dependencies.

## Public constructors

### ObservableShort

```
ObservableShort (short value)
```

Creates an ObservableShort with the given initial value.

<br />

|                             Parameters                             ||
|---------|-----------------------------------------------------------|
| `value` | `short`: the initial value for the ObservableShort <br /> |

### ObservableShort

```
ObservableShort ()
```

Creates an ObservableShort with the initial value of`0`.

<br />

### ObservableShort

```
ObservableShort (Observable... dependencies)
```

Creates an ObservableShort that depends on`dependencies`. Typically,[ObservableField](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/databinding/ObservableField)s are passed as dependencies. When any dependency notifies changes, this ObservableShort also notifies a change.

<br />

|                                         Parameters                                         ||
|----------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| `dependencies` | `Observable`: The Observables that this ObservableShort depends on. <br /> |

## Public methods

### describeContents

```
int describeContents ()
```

<br />

<br />

|    Returns    ||
|-------|--------|
| `int` | <br /> |

### get

|---------|--------------------------|
| `short` | the stored value. <br /> |

### set

```
void set (short value)
```

Set the stored value.

<br />

|               Parameters               ||

                int flags)
```

<br />

<br />

|        Parameters        ||
