# didChangeValue(forKey:withSetMutation:using:)

Informs the observed object that the specified change was made to a specified unordered to-many relationship.

```
func didChangeValue(forKey key: String, withSetMutation mutationKind: NSKeyValueSetMutationKind, using objects: Set<AnyHashable>)
```

## Parameters

`key`

The name of a property that is an unordered to-many relationship

`mutationKind`

The type of change that was made.

`objects`

The objects that were involved in the change (see <doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/Foundation/NSKeyValueSetMutationKind>).

## Discussion

Use this method when implementing key-value observer compliance manually. Calls to this method are always paired with a matching call to [`willChangeValue(forKey:withSetMutation:using:)`](/documentation/ObjectiveC/NSObject-swift.class/willChangeValue(forKey:withSetMutation:using:)).

### Special Considerations

You rarely need to override this method in subclasses, but if you do, be sure to call `super`.
