Complete callback in Observable.prototype.subscribe in Angular 2

Question

The complete callback does not work as expected. Let me explain:

See this picture, note the complete callback in subscribe method. This complete function is only called when the observerOrNext is called. When some error happens, the complete is not called. This is right? There are another method to get a callback that always is called when the process finish?

Example:

When success:

this.getData(params)
    .subscribe(
        successData => {
            // this is called
        },
        error => {
            // this is not called. Ok!
        },
        () => { // when complete
            // this is called, ok!
        }
    );

When error:

this.getData(params)
    .subscribe(
        successData => {
            // this is not called, ok!
        },
        error => {
            // this is called. Ok! Yeah!
        },
        () => { // when complete
            // this is not called, why god??
        }
    );

Answer 1

For rxjs 6 use pipe/finalize:

import { finalize } from 'rxjs/operators';

this.getData(params)
  .pipe(
    finalize(() => {
      // this is called on both success and error
    })
  )
  .subscribe(
    (successData) => {  },
    (err) => {  }
  );
