java - How to store enums in Realm? -

how store java enum classes when using realm?

from documentation, seems realm yet support storing enums:

field types realm supports following field types: boolean, byte, short, ìnt, long, float, double, string, date , byte[]. integer types byte, short, int, , long mapped same type (long actually) within realm. moreover, subclasses of realmobject , realmlist supported model relationships.

there similar question asked objective-c , got answered here. none yet java though.

without custom methods unfortunately cumbersome @ moment, can store string representation instead , convert to/from enum.

public enum foo {   foo }  // v1: using static methods public class bar1 extends realmobject {   private string enumvalue;    // getters/setters    // static methods handle enum values   public static foo getenum(bar1 obj) {     return foo.valueof(obj.getenumvalue())   }    public static foo setenum(bar1 obj, foo enum) {     return obj.setenumvalue(enum.tostring());   } }  // v2: use dummy @ignore field create getters/setters can override yourself. public class bar2 extends realmobject {    private string enumvalue;    // dummy field    @ignore   private string enum;    public void setenumvalue(string enumvalue) {     this.enumvalue = enumvalue;   }    public string getenumvalue() {     return enumvalue;   }    public void setenum(foo foo) {     setenumvalue(foo.tostring());   }    public foo getenum() {     return foo.valueof(getenumvalue());   } }
