RxSwift Versions Save

This release removes UIWebView Reactive Extensions due to Apple's hard deprecation, starting April 2020 which also allows RxSwift to be used in Catalyst apps. #2062

Other improvements and additions can be found in the project's CHANGELOG.md

Note:

The pre-built Carthage binary was built using Xcode 11.3.1 / Swift 5.1.3

• Reverts Carthage integration from using static to dynamic libraries. #1960

NOTE: This release is only relevant to Carthage users (#1960), there are no code changes between RxSwift 5.0.0 and 5.0.1.

RxSwift 5 is a mostly source-compatible release targeting the Swift 5 compiler.

Xcode 10.2 is the minimum supported version (or Swift 5 on Linux).

If you're using Xcode 10.1 and below, please use RxSwift 4.5.

• Relays have been moved to a separate framework - RxRelay, and can be used without RxCocoa. #1924
• TimeInterval has been deprecated in favor of DispatchTimeInterval. For example - throttle(1.2) would change to throttle(.milliseconds(1200)), while throttle(3) would change to throttle(.seconds(3)). #1472
• Variable is now entirely deprecated. #1922
• do now provides additional "after" closures. For example, do(onNext:) and do(afterNext:). #1898
• bind(to:) now supports multiple observers (e.g. bind(to: observer1, observer2)). #1702
• Changes the return type of ObservableType.toArray to Single. #1923
• Adds compactMap. #1925
• Deprecate Completable.merge in favor of Completable.zip. #1929 #1931
• RxSwift can be built as a Static Library using Carthage 0.33 and up. #1940

This relase introduces new framework RxAtomic that enables using C11 atomic primities in RxSwift as a replacement for deprecated OSAtomic* functions. Carthage users will probably need to include this framework manually.

• Performance enhancement reduces Bag dispatch inline code size by 12%.
• Adds customCaptureSubscriptionCallstack hook to allow custom subscription callstacks to be generated.
• Remove usage of Variable from Playground, Example projects and Tests.
• Add XCTAssertRecordedElements to XCTest+Rx.
