Package Summary  Overview Summary

class:Flow.Subscription [NONE]

  • Enclosing class:
    Flow

    public static interface Flow.Subscription
    
    Message control linking a Flow.Publisher and Flow.Subscriber. Subscribers receive items only when requested, and may cancel at any time. The methods in this interface are intended to be invoked only by their Subscribers; usages in other contexts have undefined effects.

method:request(long) [NONE]

  • request

    void request​(long n)
    Adds the given number n of items to the current unfulfilled demand for this subscription. If n is less than or equal to zero, the Subscriber will receive an onError signal with an IllegalArgumentException argument. Otherwise, the Subscriber will receive up to n additional onNext invocations (or fewer if terminated).
    Parameters:
    n - the increment of demand; a value of Long.MAX_VALUE may be considered as effectively unbounded

method:cancel() [NONE]

  • cancel

    void cancel()
    Causes the Subscriber to (eventually) stop receiving messages. Implementation is best-effort -- additional messages may be received after invoking this method. A cancelled subscription need not ever receive an onComplete or onError signal.
