The block will be asynchronously called with the initial collection, and then called again after each write transaction which changes either any of the objects in the collection, or which objects are in the collection. The `change` parameter will be `nil` the first time the block is called. For each call after that, it will contain information about which rows in the collection were added, removed or modified. If a write transaction did not modify any objects in this collection, the block is not called at all. See the `RLMCollectionChange` documentation for information on how the changes are reported and an example of updating a `UITableView`. If an error occurs the block will be called with `nil` for the collection parameter and a non-`nil` error. Currently the only errors that can occur are when opening the Realm on the background worker thread. At the time when the block is called, the collection object will be fully evaluated and up-to-date, and as long as you do not perform a write transaction on the same thread or explicitly call `-[RLMRealm refresh]`, accessing it will never perform blocking work. Notifications are delivered via the standard run loop, and so can't be delivered while the run loop is blocked by other activity. When notifications can't be delivered instantly, multiple notifications may be coalesced into a single notification. This can include the notification with the initial collection. For example, the following code performs a write transaction immediately after adding the notification block, so there is no opportunity for the initial notification to be delivered first. As a result, the initial notification will reflect the state of the Realm after the write transaction. id collection = [Dog allObjects]; NSLog(@"dogs.count: %zu", dogs.count); // => 0 self.token = [collection addNotificationBlock:^(id dogs, RLMCollectionChange *changes, NSError *error) { // Only fired once for the example NSLog(@"dogs.count: %zu", dogs.count); // => 1 }]; [realm transactionWithBlock:^{ Dog *dog = [[Dog alloc] init]; dog.name = @"Rex"; [realm addObject:dog]; }]; // end of run loop execution context You must retain the returned token for as long as you want updates to continue to be sent to the block. To stop receiving updates, call `-invalidate` on the token. @warning This method cannot be called during a write transaction, or when the containing Realm is read-only. @param block The block to be called each time the collection changes. @return A token which must be held for as long as you want collection notifications to be delivered. */ - (RLMNotificationToken *)addNotificationBlock:(void (^)(id __nullable collection, RLMCollectionChange *__nullable change, NSError *__nullable error))block __attribute__((warn_unused_result)); #pragma mark - Aggregating Property Values /** Returns the minimum (lowest) value of the given property among all the objects in the collection.
