Interface ISourceRef<TOut>

A SourceRef allows sharing a "reference" with others, with the main purpose of crossing a network boundary. Usually obtaining a SourceRef would be done via Actor messaging, in which one system asks a remote one, to share some data with it, and the remote one decides to do so in a back-pressured streaming fashion -- using a stream ref.

To create a ISourceRef<TOut> you have to materialize the Source that you want to obtain a reference to by attaching it to a SourceRef<T>().

Stream refs can be seen as Reactive Streams over network boundaries.

For additional configuration see reference.conf as well as StreamRefAttributes.
