C++ Reactive Programming

Introduction to Data Flow Computation and the RxCpp Library

From this chapter onward, we will get into meat of the reactive programming model. You can consider earlier chapters as a kind of prerequisite for understanding the reactive programming model, more specifically reactive programming using the C++ programming language. If we look back, we covered the necessary prerequisites, which includes the following:

• The event programming models on various GUI platforms
• A whirlwind tour of the Modern C++ language (including functional programming)
• Language-level concurrency in C++ for better concurrent systems
• Lock-free programming models (as a step towards declarative programming)
• Advanced design patterns and the concept of Observables
• Event ...
