Reactive Extensions v4 Preview 1

The first v4 preview of Rx addresses a number of issues and contains several enhancements.

The biggest enhancement is consolidating the existing packages into one main package, System.Reactive. This will prevent most of the pain around binding redirects that were caused by #205. If you are using Rx 4.0 and need to use libraries built against Rx 3.x, then you need to also install the compatibility package System.Reactive.Compatibility. That package contains facades with type forwarders to the new assembly so types are unified correctly. You only need this compatibility package if you are consuming a library built against 3.x. You do not need it otherwise.

There have also been other performance enhancements in the codebase and various fixes as noted below:

Rx and Ix 3.1.1

Minor packaging update that ensures the NETStandard.Library meta-package isn't referenced by projects targeting the Desktop .NET Framework (4.5 and 4.6).

Rx and Ix 3.1

The Reactive and Interactive Extensions v3.1 is a minor update to the libraries, consisting mostly of bug fixes and small enhancements.

The full list of items fixed/improved is available here, but below are some key highlights:

• #205 Implement an assembly version strategy
• #237 Rewrite of Ix Async to reduce memory allocations, make the code easier to read and fix many bugs
• #273 Restored access to the PlatformEnlightenmentProvider.Current setter

Many thanks to @aelij for his excellent work in converting Ix Async to use async and await in #170.

Note for Desktop .NET Users: As part of #205, we now have a strict assembly versioning scheme in place. This may require binding redirects to work correctly. NuGet will generate these for you, so there's nothing you should have to do. If you're seeing issues, before reporting a bug, please verify you have AutoGenerateBindingRedirects enabled as described here. You may need to manually add it some older projects.

Reactive and Interactive Extensions for .NET 3.0

Major update from version 2.2.5 adding support for .NET Core and the .NET Platform Standard. In addition to .NET Core support, a few bugs were addressed.

This update is the first after moving to the .NET Foundation. As such, there are a few noteworthy items:

• The strong name key has been changed. The old key was a Microsoft key that could not be fully checked-in. The new key is checked in, allowing anyone to create custom builds easily.
  The package names have all changed
• The NuGet package names have changed. The Rx-* and Ix-* packages have been renamed to match their library names, keeping inline with the rest of .NET Core. As the strong name key had to change, we did update the old packages as the new binaries incompatible due to strong name conflicts. They are fully source-code compatible.
  • Use System.Reactive instead of Rx-Main
  • Use System.Interactive instead of Ix-Main
  • Use System.Interactive.Async instead of Ix-Async
• The supported platforms are .NET Platform Standard 1.0 and higher. This means the following minimum versions:
  • .NET Core App 1.0
  • .NET 4.5
  • Windows 8
  • Windows Phone 8 Silverlight
  • Windows Phone 8.1
• On Visual Studio 2012 and 2013, NuGet 2.12 is required. On VS 2015, NuGet 3.4 or later is required.

As always, Rx and Ix have enhanced support per-platform, ensuring an optimal experience based on your target runtime.
