pub trait SubjectLike:
    Observable<PrimaryCategory = PrimaryCategorySubject>
    + RxObserver
    + SubscriptionLike
    + UpgradeableObserver { }
Expand description

A Subject is something that is an Observable and Observer (Subscriber) at the same time. Signals pushed into it will be received by the subscriptions made from it, broadcasting them.

Subjects do not actually implement SubscriptionLike despite them having an unsubscribe method and being closable. The reason is that subjects do not and can’t own resources, that’s the job of the subscriptions you make with them. This allows subjects to be safely droppable without having to call unsubscribe on them even in a [DropUnsafeSubscriptionContext][crate::DropUnsafeSubscriptionContext]. The unsubscribe method on subjects is only there for users to mass unsubscribe every subscription made from the subjects.

Dyn Compatibility§

This trait is not dyn compatible.

In older versions of Rust, dyn compatibility was called "object safety", so this trait is not object safe.
