Rocket.jl - why is teardown logic never called?

General Usage

Here is an example

struct MySubscribable <: Subscribable{Int} end

function Rocket.on_subscribe!(subscribable::MySubscribable, actor)
    next!(actor, 1)
    next!(actor, 2)
    next!(actor, 3)
    complete!(actor)
    return MyCustomSubscription()
end

struct MyCustomSubscription <: Teardown
    # some fields here
end

Rocket.as_teardown(::Type{<:MyCustomSubscription}) = UnsubscribableTeardownLogic()

function Rocket.on_unsubscribe!(subscription::MyCustomSubscription)
    # dispose resources here
    println("Unsubscribed!")
end

observable = MySubscribable()
my_subscription = subscribe!(observable, logger())

# this will call the on_unsubscribe! method
unsubscribe!(my_subscription)

However if I multicast the observable then the teardown logic is never called

subject = Subject(Int)
observable = MySubscribable() |> multicast(subject)
my_subscription = subscribe!(observable, logger())
connect(observable)

# teardown logic is not called here - why??
unsubscribe!(my_subscription)

Is there any way to force the correct teardown logic to be called when the observable is multicast?

This might not be the most satisfying answer, but the types for observable and my_subscription are different. In your first example:

julia> typeof(observable)
MySubscribable

julia> typeof(my_subscription)
MyCustomSubscription

In your second example:

julia> typeof(observable)
ConnectableObservable{Int64, Subject{Int64, AsapScheduler, AsapScheduler}, MySubscribable}

julia> typeof(my_subscription)
Rocket.SubjectSubscription

As for why unsubscribing from the multicasted observable doesn’t trickle up to unsubscribe for MyCustomSubscription, I don’t know. Perhaps it’s not a safe assumption they can make.
