RLMResults

@interface RLMResults < RLMObjectType : RLMObject * >  : NSObject<RLMCollection,NSFastEnumeration>

RLMResults is an auto-updating container type in Realm returned from object queries.

RLMResults can be queried with the same predicates as RLMObject and RLMArray and you can chain queries to further filter query results.

RLMResults cannot be created directly.
