一部分人压根就没想过Publisher和Subscriber的代码分别在什么线程里执行，
做Android的人天然会意识到这个，因为很多例子里都会写subScribeOn(Schedulers.io())和observeOn(AndroidSchedulers.mainThread())，所以没问题。
做了个测试工程RxJava_Test。代码都是在RxJava_Test.java里。
得到几个大白话的结论，可不容易在reactivex的文档里明确找到。
文档里那一堆花花绿绿的图真的能够给人信心吗？虽说画的很有道理，连thread的颜色都有区别，可总不容大白话好啊。
1. 线程指定
如果subscribeOn和observeOn都不指定，那么所有的动作都在当前线程里顺序执行。他们的作用分别是指定了Publisher和Subscriber的动作在什么thread里执行。
subscribeOn(scheduler) 这个函数名字取得真不合适，让人误以为subscriber的回调函数执行在指定的thread里，实际上是指定了Publisher代码执行在指定的thread里。
非要抬杠的话，由于后续的subscriber默认就的确被调用在该thread里，而且publisher的动作实际是在OnSubscibe callback里才被执行的，所以这个函数名马马虎虎说得过去，但是后续的observeOn才是真正指定了subscriber callback执行thread啊？
明明是Publisher/Subscriber对称的名词，却冒出了observerOn和subscribeOn两个类似的函数名称，没有人觉得不爽？
测试代码摘要：
private Observable<String> slowPublisher = Observable.create(subscriber -> {
sleep(1); //sleep 1ms to just let other thread run so can get predictable output
println("[SLOW publisher] begin");
println("[SLOW publisher] do some work");
sleep(3000);
println("[SLOW publisher] publish");
subscriber.onNext("SLOW result");
subscriber.onCompleted();
println("[SLOW publisher] end");
}
);
@Test
public void test_publisher_subscriber_in_current_thread() throws Exception {
new Thread(() -> {
println("Enter test function");
slowPublisher

println("---- subscriber got " + result);
});

assertOut("12:41:13.682 @RxWorkThread1 [SLOW publisher] end");
assertOut("12:41:13.683 @RxWorkThread2 ---- subscriber got SLOW result");
}
追踪了一大坨rxjava-1.1.5-sources.jar里的代码后，大致的动作归纳起来就是：
[Publisher]
in some thread(如果没指定subscribeOn(...)那就是当前thread):
Do some long time work
result_queue.putAndSetSignal(result)
[Subscriber]
in some thread(如果没指定observeOn(...)那就和Publisher的一样，否则就是别的thread):
result = result_queue.getOrWait()
callback.onNext(result)
callback.onComplete()
2. 结果硬取
如果有个Rx(例如Rx<String>)，要想在当前thread里就取出结果(例如String)，那么唯一的方法就是toBlocking()然后.first()或者.iterable()之类的。他就这么设计的，几乎所有的方法的返回值依然是个Rx以便链式调用。
以toBlocking().first()为例，看看 rxjava-1.1.5-sources.jar!/rx/observables/BlockingObservable.java 里这部分的源码：
private T blockForSingle(final Observable<? extends T> observable) {
final AtomicReference<T> returnItem = new AtomicReference<T>();
final AtomicReference<Throwable> returnException = new AtomicReference<Throwable>();
final CountDownLatch latch = new CountDownLatch(1);
Subscription subscription = ((Observable<T>)observable).subscribe(new Subscriber<T>() {
@Override
public void onCompleted() {
latch.countDown();
}
@Override
public void onError(final Throwable e) {
returnException.set(e);
latch.countDown();
}
@Override
public void onNext(final T item) {
returnItem.set(item);
}
});
BlockingUtils.awaitForComplete(latch, subscription);
if (returnException.get() != null) {
if (returnException.get() instanceof RuntimeException) {
throw (RuntimeException) returnException.get();
} else {
throw new RuntimeException(returnException.get());
}
}
return returnItem.get();
}
真心不可怕，看完了完全掌控了。大致意思就是：
当前thread:
out_result = null
fire publisher_event to start Publisher
wait complete_event
Subscriber在自己的thread里：
result = result_queue.getOrWait()
callback.onNext(result)
out_result = result
fire complete_event
破除了暧昧和神秘感。自己做一个也比较简单，无非就是搞个信号等待一下，只是做得粗糙，没考虑到错误时的信号通知，代码就不贴了。
3. Error处理
对于阻塞式Rx(经过toBlocking()转换之后的Rx)，必须在try/catch里做。而一般的Rx，必须在subscribe(...onError handler)做。
相比这个error handler，还有一个令人混淆的doOnError(handler)，它的效果和前者不一样，并不被看作真正的error handler，就是说出了错误的时候如果没有找到前者，Subscriber thread里会爆OnErrorNotImplementedException。
@Test
public void test_error_in_blocking_mode_will_always_throw_out_in_current_thread() throws Exception {
new Thread(() -> {
println("Enter test function");
try {
errorPublisher

} catch (Exception e) {
println("---- test2: " + e);
}
try {
errorPublisher
.subscribeOn(schedulerForWorkThread1) //cause publisher run in new thread
.doOnError(e -> {/*do nothing*/})
.toBlocking().first();
} catch (Exception e) {
println("---- test3: " + e);
}
println("Leave test function");
}, "CurrentThread" /*threadName*/).start();
assertOut("14:38:43.078 @CurrentThread Enter test function");
assertOut("14:38:43.113 @CurrentThread ---- test1: java.lang.NullPointerException");
assertOut("14:38:43.126 @CurrentThread ---- test2: java.lang.NullPointerException");
assertOut("14:38:43.152 @CurrentThread ---- test3: java.lang.NullPointerException");

}
@Test
public void test_error_subscribe_without_error_handler() throws Exception {
new Thread(() -> {

try {
errorPublisher
.subscribeOn(schedulerForWorkThread1) //cause publisher run in new thread
.subscribe();
} catch (Exception e) {
println("---- should not come here : " + e);
}
println("Leave test function");
}, "CurrentThread" /*threadName*/).start();
assertOut("21:06:34.342 @CurrentThread Enter test function");
assertOut("21:06:34.397 @CurrentThread Leave test function");
}
@Test
public void test_error_subscribe_without_error_handler_cause_OnErrorNotImplementedException() throws Exception {
new Thread(() -> {

try {
errorPublisher
.subscribe();
} catch (Exception e) {
println("---- test1 error: " + e);
}
try {
errorPublisher

.subscribe();
} catch (Exception e) {
println("---- test2 error: " + e);

assertOut("16:19:20.843 @RxWorkThread1 -------- error2: java.lang.NullPointerException");
}4. Merge,Concat顺序
Merge并不保证结果的顺序。Concat操作是确保结果顺序的。
@Test
public void test_merge_in_parallel_but_result_order_not_predictable() throws Exception {
new Thread(() -> {
println("Enter test function");
slowPublisher
.subscribeOn(schedulerForWorkThread1) //cause publisher run in new thread
.mergeWith(
fastPublisher
.subscribeOn(schedulerForWorkThread2)
)
.subscribe(result -> {
println("---- subscriber got " + result);
});
println("Leave test function");
}, "CurrentThread" /*threadName*/).start();
assertOut("10:50:56.507 @CurrentThread Enter test function");
assertOut("10:50:56.637 @CurrentThread Leave test function");
assertOut("10:50:56.638 @RxWorkThread1 [SLOW publisher] begin");
assertOut("10:50:56.638 @RxWorkThread1 [SLOW publisher] do some work");
assertOut("10:50:56.690 @RxWorkThread2 [FAST publisher] begin");
assertOut("10:50:56.690 @RxWorkThread2 ---- subscriber got FAST result");
assertOut("10:50:56.691 @RxWorkThread2 [FAST publisher] end");
assertOut("10:50:59.640 @RxWorkThread1 [SLOW publisher] publish");
assertOut("10:50:59.640 @RxWorkThread1 ---- subscriber got SLOW result");
assertOut("10:50:59.641 @RxWorkThread1 [SLOW publisher] end");
}
@Test
public void test_merge_in_serial_if_not_specify_schedule_thread() throws Exception {
new Thread(() -> {
println("Enter test function");
slowPublisher
.mergeWith(
fastPublisher
)
.subscribe(result -> {
println("---- subscriber got " + result);
});
println("Leave test function");
}, "CurrentThread" /*threadName*/).start();
assertOut("10:52:59.765 @CurrentThread Enter test function");
assertOut("10:52:59.846 @CurrentThread [SLOW publisher] begin");
assertOut("10:52:59.846 @CurrentThread [SLOW publisher] do some work");
assertOut("10:53:02.849 @CurrentThread [SLOW publisher] publish");
assertOut("10:53:02.850 @CurrentThread ---- subscriber got SLOW result");
assertOut("10:53:02.850 @CurrentThread [SLOW publisher] end");
assertOut("10:53:02.904 @CurrentThread [FAST publisher] begin");
assertOut("10:53:02.904 @CurrentThread ---- subscriber got FAST result");
assertOut("10:53:02.904 @CurrentThread [FAST publisher] end");
assertOut("10:53:02.905 @CurrentThread Leave test function");
}
@Test
public void test_concat_will_always_serially_so_predictable_order() throws Exception {
new Thread(() -> {
println("Enter test function");
slowPublisher
.subscribeOn(schedulerForWorkThread1) //cause publisher run in new thread
.concatWith(
fastPublisher
.subscribeOn(schedulerForWorkThread2)
)
.subscribe(result -> {
println("---- subscriber got " + result);
});
println("Leave test function");
}, "CurrentThread" /*threadName*/).start();
assertOut("10:53:55.314 @CurrentThread Enter test function");
assertOut("10:53:55.454 @CurrentThread Leave test function");
assertOut("10:53:55.456 @RxWorkThread1 [SLOW publisher] begin");
assertOut("10:53:55.456 @RxWorkThread1 [SLOW publisher] do some work");

assertOut("10:53:58.516 @RxWorkThread2 [FAST publisher] begin");
assertOut("10:53:58.516 @RxWorkThread2 ---- subscriber got FAST result");
assertOut("10:53:58.517 @RxWorkThread2 [FAST publisher] end");
}
练的差不多了，
5. 挑战：异种Rx并发执行＋统一掌控
假设有3个不同类型的Rx, 说不准谁快，其中有一个还有可能出错误，现在想让这三个Rx并行执行，但是要等待得到所有的结果，包括错误。
说真的，如果不是硬要用RxJava里的方法，那就各自并行publish,subscribe，在callback里用CountDownLatch信号量来搞算了，没啥难的，还好懂。
private static class RxResult<T> {
T result;
Throwable error;
}
private static class RxResultAndSignal<T> extends RxResult<T> {
CountDownLatch latch = new CountDownLatch(1);
} @Test
public void test_merge_3_different_type_rx_by_self_idea() throws Exception {
new Thread(() -> {
println("Enter test function");
RxResultAndSignal<String> r1 = new RxResultAndSignal<>();
RxResultAndSignal<StringBuilder> r2 = new RxResultAndSignal<>();
RxResultAndSignal<Number> r3 = new RxResultAndSignal<>();
slowPublisher
.subscribeOn(schedulerForWorkThread1) //cause publisher run in new thread
.subscribe(result -> {
r1.result = result;
}, e -> { //onError
r1.error = e;
r1.latch.countDown();
}, () -> { //onComplete
r1.latch.countDown();
});
incompatiblePublisher
.subscribeOn(schedulerForWorkThread2)
.subscribe(result -> {
r2.result = result;
}, e -> { //onError
r2.error = e;
r2.latch.countDown();
}, () -> { //onComplete
r2.latch.countDown();
});
buggyPublisher
.subscribeOn(schedulerForWorkThread3)
.subscribe(result -> {
r3.result = result;
}, e -> { //onError
r3.error = e;
r3.latch.countDown();
}, () -> { //onComplete
r3.latch.countDown();
});
try {
r1.latch.await();
r2.latch.await();
r3.latch.await();
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
sleep(1); //sleep 1ms to let other thread run so can get predictable output
println("---- got all result: {" + r1.result + "}, {" + r2.result + "}, {" + r3.result + "}");
println("---- got all error: {" + r1.error + "}, {" + r2.error + "}, {" + r3.error + "}");
println("Leave test function");
}, "CurrentThread" /*threadName*/).start();
assertOut("13:27:55.033 @CurrentThread Enter test function");
assertOut("13:27:55.065 @RxWorkThread1 [SLOW publisher] begin");
assertOut("13:27:55.065 @RxWorkThread1 [SLOW publisher] do some work");
assertOut("13:27:55.082 @RxWorkThread2 [Incompatible publisher] begin");
assertOut("13:27:55.082 @RxWorkThread2 [Incompatible publisher] do some work");
assertOut("13:27:55.086 @RxWorkThread3 [Buggy publisher] begin");
assertOut("13:27:57.084 @RxWorkThread2 [Incompatible publisher] end");
assertOut("13:27:58.069 @RxWorkThread1 [SLOW publisher] publish");
assertOut("13:27:58.070 @RxWorkThread1 [SLOW publisher] end");
assertOut("13:27:58.071 @CurrentThread ---- got all result: {SLOW result}, {Incompatible result}, {null}");
assertOut("13:27:58.071 @CurrentThread ---- got all error: {null}, {null}, {java.lang.NullPointerException}");
assertOut("13:27:58.071 @CurrentThread Leave test function");
}
如果非要全用RxJava里的方法实现的话，折腾了一阵子，发现这个方法比较健壮：
@Test
public void test_merge_3_different_type_rx() throws Exception {
new Thread(() -> {
println("Enter test function");
RxResult<String> r1 = new RxResult<>();
RxResult<StringBuilder> r2 = new RxResult<>();
RxResult<Number> r3 = new RxResult<>();
Completable.merge(
slowPublisher
.subscribeOn(schedulerForWorkThread1) //cause publisher run in new thread
.doOnNext(result -> r1.result = result)
.doOnError(e -> r1.error = e)
.toCompletable() //so can mergeWith other type rx
.onErrorComplete() //auto call complete when error
,
incompatiblePublisher
.subscribeOn(schedulerForWorkThread2)
.doOnNext(result -> r2.result = result)
.doOnError(e -> r2.error = e)
.toCompletable() //so can mergeWith other type rx
.onErrorComplete() //auto call complete when error
,
buggyPublisher
.subscribeOn(schedulerForWorkThread3)
.doOnNext(result -> r3.result = result)
.doOnError(e -> r3.error = e)
.toCompletable() //so can mergeWith other type rx
.onErrorComplete() //auto call complete when error
)
.await(/*can specify total timeout*/);
sleep(1); //sleep 1ms to let other thread run so can get predictable output
println("---- got all result: {" + r1.result + "}, {" + r2.result + "}, {" + r3.result + "}");
println("---- got all error: {" + r1.error + "}, {" + r2.error + "}, {" + r3.error + "}");
println("Leave test function");
}, "CurrentThread" /*threadName*/).start();
assertOut("13:47:50.789 @CurrentThread Enter test function");
assertOut("13:47:50.852 @RxWorkThread1 [SLOW publisher] begin");
assertOut("13:47:50.852 @RxWorkThread1 [SLOW publisher] do some work");
assertOut("13:47:50.862 @RxWorkThread2 [Incompatible publisher] begin");
assertOut("13:47:50.863 @RxWorkThread2 [Incompatible publisher] do some work");
assertOut("13:47:50.869 @RxWorkThread3 [Buggy publisher] begin");
assertOut("13:47:52.868 @RxWorkThread2 [Incompatible publisher] end");
assertOut("13:47:53.854 @RxWorkThread1 [SLOW publisher] publish");
assertOut("13:47:53.854 @RxWorkThread1 [SLOW publisher] end");
assertOut("13:47:53.856 @CurrentThread ---- got all result: {SLOW result}, {Incompatible result}, {null}");
assertOut("13:47:53.856 @CurrentThread ---- got all error: {null}, {null}, {java.lang.NullPointerException}");
assertOut("13:47:53.856 @CurrentThread Leave test function");
}
绝对还有其他方法。RxJava构建了一个自己的世界，要折腾什么样子的都不稀奇，不过些复杂了就不好懂，光看暧昧的方法调用其实无法让人确信如自己希望的那样动作。
