# Combine Code Review

Quick Reference

| Issue Type | Reference |

|------------|-----------|

| Publishers, Subjects, AnyPublisher | [references/publishers.md](references/publishers.md) |

| map, flatMap, combineLatest, switchToLatest | [references/operators.md](references/operators.md) |

| AnyCancellable, retain cycles, [weak self] | [references/memory.md](references/memory.md) |

| tryMap, catch, replaceError, Never | [references/error-handling.md](references/error-handling.md) |

Review Checklist

  • [ ] All `sink` closures use `[weak self]` when self owns cancellable
  • [ ] No `assign(to:on:self)` usage (use `assign(to: &$property)` or sink)
  • [ ] All AnyCancellables stored in Set or property (not discarded)
  • [ ] Subjects exposed as `AnyPublisher` via `eraseToAnyPublisher()`
  • [ ] `flatMap` used correctly (not when `map + switchToLatest` needed)
  • [ ] Error handling inside `flatMap` to keep main chain alive
  • [ ] `tryMap` followed by `mapError` to restore error types
  • [ ] `receive(on: DispatchQueue.main)` before UI updates
  • [ ] PassthroughSubject for events, CurrentValueSubject for state
  • [ ] Future wrapped in Deferred when used with retry
  • When to Load References

  • Reviewing Subjects or publisher selection → publishers.md
  • Reviewing operator chains or combining publishers → operators.md
  • Reviewing subscriptions or memory issues → memory.md
  • Reviewing error handling or try* operators → error-handling.md
  • Review Questions

    1. Are all subscriptions being retained? (Check for discarded AnyCancellables)

    2. Could any sink or assign create a retain cycle with self?

    3. Does flatMap need to be switchToLatest for search/autocomplete?

    4. What happens when this publisher fails? (Will it kill the main chain?)

    5. Are error types preserved or properly mapped after try* operators?
