Is there a shareIn alt which evaluates lazily? i.e.,

aFlow = flow(1,2,3).onEach{ println("A $it") }
shared = aFlow.lazyCache()
shared.take(1).forEach{ println("B $it")}
shared.take(2).forEach{ println("C $it")}

would print “A1 B1 A2 C2"

… or something to that effect

SharedFlow with a replay cache? A regular flow can be converted using shareIn

Have you tried with shareIn(scope, SharingStarted.LAZY) ? This ensures that the first suscriber gets all emitted values.

without any value for replay flows collecting after that will only get the most recent value (whereas the resulting Flow from asFlow on the ArrayDeque will return all values each collection)

[Tijl]

perhaps also worth pointing out Flow.toList
