Tukukkk

I am a Java Android Developer and I'm approaching Kotlin.

I have defined the following class:

open class Player : RealmObject() {

    ...

}

And I defined the following two extensions, one for the generic RealmObject class and one for the specific Player class:

fun RealmObject.store() {

    Realm.getDefaultInstance().use { realm ->

        realm.beginTransaction()

        realm.copyToRealmOrUpdate(this)

        realm.commitTransaction()

    }

}



fun Player.store(){

    this.loggedAt = Date()

    (this as RealmObject).store()

}

What I want is if I call .store() on any RealmObject object, the RelamObject.store() extension will be called BUT if i call .store() on a Player instance the extension that will be called will be Player.store().
(No problem for now)
I don't want to copy paste the same code, i love to write less reuse more.
So i need that internally the Player.store() will call the generic RealmObject.store()

I got it. The code I wrote up there is actually working as expected :D

Is this the good way? Or there is some better way?

It's not a direct answer to your technical question, which you seem to have answered.

I'm not sure that the Player.loggedAt field should be set when store() is called. We only see a very small fraction of your app, but maybe that could be set somewhere else more naturally. From the name, it seems maybe it should be set when the Player is created, or recreated from the DB.
