how to implement table inheritance in GreenDao
android, android-sqlite, greendao
Solution
Inheritance is supported for non-entity super classes using setSuperclass(String). An alternative is implementing interfaces using implementsInterface(String).
I updated the official docs with some details in the new section on inheritance and interfaces: http://greendao-orm.com/documentation/modelling-entities/
Problem
I've been trying to create a database where all the tables inherit a certain element in order to have to possibility to have meta-data. there for I added in the model generator in all the table declarations this line: ``` public Entity addSuperEntity(Schema schema) { Entity superEntity = schema.addEntity("superEntity"); superEntity.addIdProperty().primaryKey(); // SET RELATIONSHIP 1:m TO META DATA } public Entity addTable(Schema schema) { Entity mEntity = schema.addEntity("MyEntity"); mEntity.setSuper("superEntity"); mEntity.addIdProperty().PrimaryKey(); // REST OF FIELDS } ``` the question is: now after I generated this to my Android project, how can I make sure that this still happens in real life? do I need to change anything now? the official documentation doesn't have anything about inheritance.
