Class RealmResults<E extends RealmObject>

java.lang.Object

java.util.AbstractCollection<E>

java.util.AbstractList<E>

io.realm.RealmResults<E>

Type Parameters:

E - The class of objects in this list

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.lang.Iterable<E>, java.util.Collection<E>, java.util.List<E>

public class RealmResults<E extends RealmObject>
extends java.util.AbstractList<E>

This class holds all the matches of a RealmQuery for a given Realm. The objects are not copied from the Realm to the RealmResults list, but are just referenced from the RealmResult instead. This saves memory and increases speed.

RealmResults are live views, which means that if it is on an Looper thread, it will automatically update its query results after a transaction has been committed. If on a non-looper thread, Realm.refresh() must be called to update the results.

Updates to RealmObjects from a RealmResults list must be done from within a transaction and the modified objects are persisted to the Realm file during the commit of the transaction.

A RealmResults object cannot be passed between different threads.

Notice that a RealmResults is never null not even in the case where it contains no objects. You should always use the size() method to check if a RealmResults is empty or not.
