T
- the value type transmitted through the queuepublic interface QueueDisposable<T> extends QueueFuseable<T>, Disposable
SimpleQueue
and Disposable
and allows negotiating
the fusion mode between subsequent operators of the Observable
base reactive type.
The negotiation happens in subscription time when the upstream
calls the onSubscribe
with an instance of this interface. The
downstream has then the obligation to call QueueFuseable.requestFusion(int)
with the appropriate mode before calling request()
.
In synchronous fusion, all upstream values are either already available or is generated
when SimpleQueue.poll()
is called synchronously. When the SimpleQueue.poll()
returns null
,
that is the indication if a terminated stream. In this mode, the upstream won't call the onXXX methods.
In asynchronous fusion, upstream values may become available to SimpleQueue.poll()
eventually.
Upstream signals onError()
and onComplete()
as usual, however,
onNext
will be called with null
instead of the actual value.
Downstream should treat such onNext as indication that SimpleQueue.poll()
can be called.
The general rules for consuming the SimpleQueue
interface:
SimpleQueue.poll()
and SimpleQueue.clear()
has to be called sequentially (from within a serializing drain-loop).SimpleQueue.poll()
should be prepared to catch exceptions.SimpleQueue.poll()
, SimpleQueue.poll()
may return
null
even if a preceding SimpleQueue.isEmpty()
returned false.
Implementations should only allow calling the following methods and the rest of the
SimpleQueue
interface methods should throw UnsupportedOperationException
:
