Yigit, do you have time to fix it?

reemission of the same liveData is racy

yea i'll take it.

Thanks for the detailed analysis. This may not be an issue anymore since we've started using Main.immediate there but I' not sure; I'll try to create a test case.

just emitting same live data reproduces the issue.

    @Test
    fun raceTest() {
        val subLiveData = MutableLiveData(1)
        val subject = liveData(testScope.coroutineContext) {
            emitSource(subLiveData)
            emitSource(subLiveData) //crashes
        }
        subject.addObserver().apply {
            testScope.advanceUntilIdle()
        }
    }

With 2.2.0-alpha04 (that use Main.immediate), the issue seems to be still there (I tested it by calling emitSource() twice, like your test case)

yea sorry immediate does not fix it.
I actually have a WIP fix for it:

if your case is the one i found (emitting same LiveData multiple times, as shown in #5) you can work around it by adding a dummy transformation.


val subLiveData = MutableLiveData(1)
        val subject = liveData(testScope.coroutineContext) {
            emitSource(subLiveData.map {it })
            emitSource(subLiveData.map {it} )
        }
