Issue with conflate() operator in bindings

See original GitHub issue

I use the events() binding in my application. More precisely I use it to listen for view lifecycle events in a Fragment like viewLifecycleOwner.lifecycle.events().

However the ON_START event is swallowed for some reason. For example I do receive ON_CREATE and ON_RESUME but not ON_START. It seems like this is a race conditions as ON_START does occur depending of where/when I listen for these events.

I noticed that you apply a conflate() on the Flow. I copied the code of events() and just removed conflate(). With my version I receive ON_START all the time. So I wonder why do you apply conflate()? It seems you add this to all bindings? Is there a specific reason?

I wonder if there is a Lifecycle concept that only notifies about events from the time events are observed, not replaying previous events?

Not that I’m aware of 🤷‍♂. Anyway I’ll remove conflate() to respect the behavior of LifecycleObserver.
