Subclass a subclass of RealmObject

[jinthagerman]

I'm relatively new to Realm, Java and Android and I was wondering whether you can subclass a subclass of RealmObject and if that subclass would then work as expected.

Hi @jinthagerman
Unfortunately not yet. However it is something we have on our TODO and want to fix: #761

For now you will have to duplicate fields between model classes, sorry.

Any update on this? when will this feature be available?

Considering it's "blocked on core" and "idea backlog" for Realm-Cocoa which is far ahead in terms of features (they have Results integration and fine-grained notifications too, for example), you should probably resolve this problem in a different way. For example, interfaces.
