Graham

Anomalies

• Fixes RxCocoa problems on macOS (TextInput now uses NSTextInputClient)
• Hides accidentally exposed BagKey structure.
• Makes notification extension name parameter optional.

Aenea

• Prefixes boolean properties with is and makes String? properties consistent.
  • rx.hidden -> rx.isHidden
  • rx.enabled -> rx.isEnabled
    ...
    also ...
  • since rx.text has now type String? to be consistent with UIKit, in case String is needed
    there is rx.text.orEmpty that has String type.
• Renames title(controlState:) on UIButton to title(for:).
• All data structures are now internal (Bag, Queue, PriorityQueue ...)
• Improves performance of Bag.
• Polishes RxCocoa URLSession extensions
  • JSON -> json
  • return type is Any instead of AnyObject
  • replaces response tuple parameters, now it's (HTTPResponse, Data)
  • removes name hiding for request parameter
• Migrates Driver and NSNotification tests to Linux.
• Removes RxTest from OSX + SPM integration until usable XCTest support on OSX.
• Renames ObserverType.map to OberverType.mapObserver because of possible ambigutites with subjects.
• Improves dispatch queue detection logic and replaces concept of threads in favor of dispatch queues (solves a lot
  of problems on Linux environment).
• Replaces SectionedViewDataSourceType.model(_:) with SectionedViewDataSourceType.model(at:)
• Renames OSX to macOS across the project.

Anomalies

• Fixes wrong casing in #import "include/_RXObjCRuntime.h" (was creating issues for people with
  case sensitive file system). #949
• Fixes issues with locking strategy for subjects. #936
• Fixes code example in comments of RxTableViewExtensions that didn't compile. #947
• Adds .swift-version to help package managers to detect Swift 3 version.

Baneby

• Renames RxTests library to RxTest because of problems with Swift Package Manager.
• Adds Swift Package Manager support
• Adds Linux support
• Replaces AnyObserver with UIBindingObserver in public interface.
• Renames resourceCount to Resources.total.
• Makes rx.text type consistent with UIKit String? type.

textField.rx.text          // <- now has type `ControlProperty<String?>`
textField.rx.text.orEmpty  // <- now has type `ControlProperty<String>`

• Adds optional overloads for bindTo and drive. Now the following works:

let text: Observable<String> = Observable.just("")

// Previously `map { $0 }` was needed because of mismatch betweeen sequence `String` type and `String?` type
// on binding `rx.text` observer.
text.bindTo(label.rx.text)  
   .addDisposableTo(disposeBag)

...

let text = Driver.just("")
text.drive(label.rx.text)
   .addDisposableTo(disposeBag)

• Adds trim output parameter to debug operator. #930
• Renames NSDate to Date everywhere.
• Renames scheduler init param globalConcurrentQueueQOS to qos and removes custom enum wrapper.
• Adds setter to rx property to enable mutation of base object.

Elena

• Subscription disposables now only create strong references to sinks until being disposed or sequence terminates. #573
• Introduces SharedSequence and makes Driver just a specialization of SharedSequence.
  That means Driver is now just one specific SharedSequence and it is now possible to easily create new concepts that have another compile time guarantees in a couple of lines of code.
  E.g. choosing a background scheduler on which elements are delivered, or choosing share as a sharing strategy instead of shareReplayLatestWhileConnected.
• Moves Reactive struct and ReactiveCompatible from RxCocoa to RxSwift to enable third party consumers to remove RxCocoa dependency.
• Add rx. extensions on Types.
• Moves UIImagePickerViewController and CLLocationManager out of RxCocoa to RxExample project because of App Store submissions issues
  on iOS 10.
• Adds sentMessage got its equivalent sequence methodInvoked that produces elements after method is invoked (vs before method is invoked).
• Deprecates observe method on DelegateProxy in favor of sentMessage.
• Adds simetric methodInvoked method on DelegateProxy that enables observing after method is invoked.
• Moves all delegate extensions from using sentMessage to using methodInvoked (that fixes some problem with editing data sources)
• Fixes problem with RxTableViewDataSourceProxy source enabling editing of table view cells (swipe on delete) even if there weren't
  any observers or forwardToDelegate wasn't implementing UITableViewDataSource.tableView(_:commit:forRowAt:). #907
• Makes DelegateProxy open. #884
• Deprecates extensions that were polluting Swift collection namespaces and moves them to static functions on Observable
  • Observable.combineLatest
  • Observable.zip
  • Observable.concat
  • Observable.catchError (sequence version)
  • Observable.amb
• Deprecates extensions that were polluting Swift collection namespaces and moves them to static functions on Driver
  • Driver.combineLatest
  • Driver.zip
  • Driver.concat
  • Driver.catchError (sequence version)
  • Driver.amb
• Update Getting Started document, section on creating an observable that performs work to Swift 3.0.
• Removes stale installation instructions.

Oz

Features

• Adapts to new Swift 3.0 syntax.
• Corrects throttle operator behavior to be more consistent with other platforms. Adds latest flag that controls should latest element
  be emitted after dueTime.
• Adds delay operator.
• Adds UISearchBar extensions:
  • bookmarkButtonClicked
  • resultsListButtonClicked
  • textDidBeginEditing
  • textDidEndEditing
• Moves CLLocationManager and UIImagePickerViewController extensions from RxCocoa to RxExample project. #874
• Adds matrix CI builds.

Black-Scholes

Requirements

• Xcode 8.0 beta 6 (8S201h)
• Swift 3.0

Features

• Modernizes API to be more consistent with Swift 3.0 API Design Guidelines
• Replaces rx_* prefix with rx.* extensions. (Inspired by .lazy collections API). We've tried annotate deprecated APIs with @available(*, deprecated, renamed: "new method") but trivial replacements aren't annotated.
  • rx_text -> rx.text
  • rx_tap -> rx.tap
  • rx_date -> rx.date
  • ...
• Deprecates subscribeNext, subscribeError, subscribeCompleted in favor of subscribe(onNext:onError:onCompleted:onDisposed) (The downsides of old extensions were inconsistencies with Swift API guidelines. They also weren't expressing that calling them actually performes additional subscriptions and thus potentially additional work beside just registering observers).
• Deprecates doOnNext, doOnCompleted, doOnError in favor of do(onNext:onCompleted:onError:onSubscribe:onDisposed:)
• Adds onSubscribe and onDisposed to do operator.
• Adds namespace for immutable disposables called Disposables
  • Deprecates AnonymousDisposable in favor of Disposables.create(with:)
  • Deprecates NopDisposable in favor of Disposables.create()
  • Deprecates BinaryDisposable in favor of Disposables.create(_:_:)
• Deprecates toObservable in favor of Observable.from().
• Replaces old javascript automation tests with Swift UI Tests.
• ...

Anomalies

• There is a problem using UISwitch extensions because it seems that a bug exists in UIKit that causes all UISwitch instances to leak. #842
