Rx.RefCountDisposable

Represents a disposable resource that only disposes its underlying disposable resource when all getDisposable dependent disposable objects have been disposed.

Usage ##

The follow example shows the basic usage of an Rx.RefCountDisposable.

var disposable = Rx.Disposable.create(() => console.log('disposed'));

var refCountDisposable = new Rx.RefCountDisposable(disposable);

// Try disposing before the underlying is disposed
refCountDisposable.dispose();

console.log(refCountDisposable.isDisposed);
// => false

// Dispose the underlying disposable
disposable.dispose();
// => disposed

// Now dispose the primary
refCountDisposable.dispose();

console.log(refCountDisposable.isDisposed);
// => true

RefCountDisposable Constructor ##

Rx.RefCountDisposable(disposable)

# Ⓢ

Initializes a new instance of the Rx.RefCountDisposable class with the specified disposable

Arguments

1. disposable (Disposable): Underlying disposable.

Example

var disposable = Rx.Disposable.create(() => console.log('disposed'));

var refCountDisposable = new Rx.RefCountDisposable(disposable);

console.log(refCountDisposable.isDisposed);
// => false

RefCountDisposable Instance Methods ##

Rx.RefCountDisposable.prototype.dispose()

# Ⓢ

Disposes the underlying disposable only when all dependent disposables have been disposed.

Example

var disposable = Rx.Disposable.create(() => console.log('disposed'));

var refCountDisposable = new Rx.RefCountDisposable(disposable);

// Try disposing before the underlying is disposed
refCountDisposable.dispose();

console.log(refCountDisposable.isDisposed);
// => false

// Dispose the underlying disposable
disposable.dispose();
// => disposed

// Now dispose the primary
refCountDisposable.dispose();

console.log(refCountDisposable.isDisposed);
// => true

Location

Rx.RefCountDisposable.prototype.getDisposable()

# Ⓢ

Returns a dependent disposable that when disposed decreases the refcount on the underlying disposable.

Returns

(Disposable): A dependent disposable contributing to the reference count that manages the underlying disposable's lifetime.

Example

var disposable = Rx.Disposable.create(() => console.log('disposed'));

var refCountDisposable = new Rx.RefCountDisposable(disposable);

var d = refCountDisposable.getDisposable();

console.log(d === disposable);
// => false

// Clean up disposables
disposable.dispose();
d.dispose();

// Now try to dispose the main
refCountDisposable.dispose();

console.log(refCountDisposable.isDisposed);
// => true

# Ⓢ

Gets a value that indicates whether the object is disposed.

var refCountDisposable = new Rx.RefCountDisposable(disposable);

disposable.dispose();

console.log(refCountDisposable.isDisposed);
// => false

refCountDisposable.dispose();
// => disposed
