Observable.Publish<TSource, TResult> Method (IObservable<TSource>, Func<IObservable<TSource>, IObservable<TResult>>, TSource)

Returns a connectable observable sequence that shares a single subscription to the underlying sequence and starts with initialValue.

Namespace:  System.Reactive.Linq
Assembly:  System.Reactive (in System.Reactive.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
<ExtensionAttribute> _
Public Shared Function Publish(Of TSource, TResult) ( _
    source As IObservable(Of TSource), _
    selector As Func(Of IObservable(Of TSource), IObservable(Of TResult)), _
    initialValue As TSource _
) As IObservable(Of TResult)
'Usage
Dim source As IObservable(Of TSource)
Dim selector As Func(Of IObservable(Of TSource), IObservable(Of TResult))
Dim initialValue As TSource
Dim returnValue As IObservable(Of TResult)

returnValue = source.Publish(selector, _
    initialValue)

    this IObservable<TSource> source,
    Func<IObservable<TSource>, IObservable<TResult>> selector,
    TSource initialValue
)
[ExtensionAttribute]
public:
generic<typename TSource, typename TResult>
static IObservable<TResult>^ Publish(
    IObservable<TSource>^ source, 
    Func<IObservable<TSource>^, IObservable<TResult>^>^ selector, 
    TSource initialValue

static member Publish : 
        source:IObservable<'TSource> *

        initialValue:'TSource -> IObservable<'TResult> 
JScript does not support generic types and methods.

Type Parameters

  • TSource
    The type of source.
  • TResult
    The type of Result.

Parameters

  • source
    Type: System.IObservable<TSource>
    The source sequence whose elements will be multicasted through a single shared subscription.
  • selector
    Type: System.Func<IObservable<TSource>, IObservable<TResult>>
    The selector function which can use the multicasted source sequence as many times as needed, without causing multiple subscriptions to the source sequence.
  • initialValue
    Type: TSource
    The initial value received by observers upon subscription.

Return Value

Type: System.IObservable<TResult>
An observable sequence that contains the elements of a sequence produced by multicasting the source sequence within a selector function.

Usage Note

In Visual Basic and C#, you can call this method as an instance method on any object of type IObservable<TSource>. When you use instance method syntax to call this method, omit the first parameter. For more information, see or .
