I have a custom class MyClass that is essentially made up of several NSMutableArrays and no other variables. I have an entity MyEntity that has an ivar that is of MyClass. When I try to save the entity, I get this stack dump:

Does anyone have any suggestions at all what may be causing this? I believe it’s probably related to MyClass, but how should I go about fixing this? Did I forget to write something for it?

    How did you define the myClass ivar in your entity? You can use a Transformable attribute to hold a non standard type. The idea is that Core Data uses behind the scenes an instance of NSValueTransformer to convert the attribute to and from an instance of NSData.

    Core Data then stores the data instance to the persistent store.

    By default is used the NSKeyedUnarchiverFromDataTransformerName, this means your custom class must implement the NSCoding protocol (with support for keyed-archiving)

    Check “Non-Standard Persistent Attributes” in the Core Data Programming Guide for more details and description of another way to accomplish the same.
