/**
 * Base reactive classes: {@link io.reactivex.Flowable},  {@link io.reactivex.Observable},
 * {@link io.reactivex.Single},  {@link io.reactivex.Maybe} and
 *  {@link io.reactivex.Completable}; base reactive consumers;
 * other common base interfaces.
 *
 * 

A library that enables subscribing to and composing asynchronous events and * callbacks.

*

The Flowable/Subscriber, Observable/Observer, Single/SingleObserver and * Completable/CompletableObserver interfaces and associated operators (in * the {@code io.reactivex.internal.operators} package) are inspired by the * Reactive Rx library in Microsoft .NET but designed and implemented on * the more advanced Reactive-Streams ( http://www.reactivestreams.org ) principles.

*

* More information can be found at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/data/gg577609. *

* * *

Compared with the Microsoft implementation: *

    *
  • Observable == IObservable (base type)
  • *
  • Observer == IObserver (event consumer)
  • *
  • Disposable == IDisposable (resource/cancellation management)
  • *
  • Observable == Observable (factory methods)
  • *
  • Flowable == IAsyncEnumerable (backpressure)
  • *
  • Subscriber == IAsyncEnumerator
  • *
* The Single and Completable reactive base types have no equivalent in Rx.NET as of 3.x. * *

Services which intend on exposing data asynchronously and wish * to allow reactive processing and composition can implement the * {@link io.reactivex.Flowable}, {@link io.reactivex.Observable}, {@link io.reactivex.Single}, * {@link io.reactivex.Maybe} or {@link io.reactivex.Completable} class which then allow * consumers to subscribe to them and receive events.

*

Usage examples can be found on the {@link io.reactivex.Flowable}/{@link io.reactivex.Observable} and {@link org.reactivestreams.Subscriber} classes.
