#Reactive Extensions
The ReactiveX Observable model allows you to treat streams of asynchronous events with the same sort of simple, composable operations that you use for collections of data items like arrays. It frees you from tangled webs of callbacks, and thereby makes your code more readable and less prone to bugs.

#Cloning RxCpp
RxCpp uses a git submodule (in ext/catch
) for the excellent Catch library. The easiest way to ensure that the submodules are included in the clone is to add --recursive
in the clone command.
git clone --recursive https://github.com/Reactive-Extensions/RxCpp.git
cd RxCpp
#Building RxCpp
- RxCpp is regularly tested on OSX and Windows.
- RxCpp is regularly built with Clang, Gcc and VC
- RxCpp depends on the latest compiler releases.
RxCpp uses CMake to create build files for several platforms and IDE's
###ide builds
####XCode
mkdir projects/build
cd projects/build
cmake -G"Xcode" ../CMake -B.
####Visual Studio 2013
mkdir projects\build
cd projects\build
cmake -G"Visual Studio 14" ..\CMake -B.
msbuild rxcpp.sln
###makefile builds
####OSX
mkdir projects/build
cd projects/build
cmake -G"Unix Makefiles" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo -B. ../CMake
make
####Linux --- Clang
mkdir projects/build
cd projects/build
cmake -G"Unix Makefiles" -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=clang -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=clang++ -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo -B. ../CMake
make
####Linux --- GCC
mkdir projects/build
cd projects/build
cmake -G"Unix Makefiles" -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=gcc -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=g++ -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo -B. ../CMake
make
####Windows
mkdir projects\build
cd projects\build
cmake -G"NMake Makefiles" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo -B. ..\CMake
nmake
The build only produces test and example binaries.
#Running tests
- You can use the CMake test runner
ctest
- You can run the test binaries directly
rxcppv2_test_*
- Tests can be selected by name or tag Example of by-tag
rxcppv2_test_subscription [perf]
#Documentation
RxCpp uses Doxygen to generate project documentation.
When Doxygen+Graphviz is installed, CMake creates a special build task named doc
. It creates actual documentation and puts it to projects/doxygen/html/
folder, which can be published to the gh-pages
branch. Each merged pull request will build the docs and publish them.
#Contributing Code
Before submitting a feature or substantial code contribution please discuss it with the team and ensure it follows the product roadmap. Note that all code submissions will be rigorously reviewed and tested by the Rx Team, and only those that meet an extremely high bar for both quality and design/roadmap appropriateness will be merged into the source.
You will be prompted to submit a Contributor License Agreement form after submitting your pull request. This needs to only be done once for any Microsoft OSS project. Fill in the Contributor License Agreement (CLA).
