# getIsStale method

bool getIsStale()

Returns whether this pod definition is stale.

A stale pod definition indicates that it was modified after being merged. This means the merged version may need to be re-evaluated or rebuilt.

### Example

    final rootDef = RootPodDefinition();

    rootDef.setIsStale(true);
    if (rootDef.getIsStale()) {
      // Pod definition has been modified
      rootDef.setIsStale(false);
    }

## Implementation

    bool getIsStale() => _isStale;
