Hi, I wonder are the new combine & combineTransform functions cancelling if a new value is emitted? It seems they are not and there is no alternative to do so.
Eg. I want to this https://play.kotlinlang.org/#eyJ2ZXJzaW9uIjoiMS4zLjMxIiwiY29kZSI6ImltcG9ydCBrb3RsaW54LmNvcm91dGluZXMuKlxuaW1wb3J0IGtvdGxpbnguY29yb3V0aW5lcy5mbG93Lipcblxuc3VzcGVuZCBmdW4gbWFpbigpIHtcbiAgICB2YWwgZmxvd04gPSBmbG93T2YoMSwgMiwgMywgNCwgNSkuY29uZmxhdGUoKS5kZWxheUVhY2goNSlcbiAgICB2YWwgZmxvd0wgPSBmbG93T2YoXCJBXCIsIFwiQlwiLCBcIkNcIikuY29uZmxhdGUoKS5kZWxheUVhY2goMTApXG4gICAgXG4gICAgY29tYmluZShmbG93TiwgZmxvd0wpIHsgbiwgbCAtPlxuICAgICAgICBkZWxheSgxMDApXG4gICAgICAgIG4udG9TdHJpbmcoKSArIGxcbiAgICB9LmNvbGxlY3QgeyBwcmludGxuKGl0KSB9XG59IiwicGxhdGZvcm0iOiJqYXZhIiwiYXJncyI6IiJ9 to print just "5C"

Second, I wonder why this example returns such result now .

First, you use conflate(), which just drop not processed values

[gildor]

Second that you need combineLatest if you want cancel previous emission

[Jan Skrasek]

CombineLatest has wrong name and probably that is the reason is deprecated. CombineLatest is jsut combine.

[Jan Skrasek]

In the example above I'm using conflate() and it gives weird result.

[gildor]

Ah yeah, it's renamed in 1.3

[gildor]

What kind result do you expect from conflate?

[Jan Skrasek]

Nothing particular from conflate. I need to cancel the transforme in combine, if new value arrives.

[Jan Skrasek]

I'd like the example above to print 5C, as mentioned ^^
