Is there a way to determine which component attribute updated?

Is there a way to determine which specific component attributes updated, without the component having to manually compare each attribute to its old value? I.e. I don't want my component to internally store the old objects of every attribute . I'm trying to avoid doing something like the following:

didReceiveAttrs() { 
     if( this.propA != this.oldPropA){
         // do something...
    }
     if( this.propB != this.oldPropB){
         // do something...
    }
}
