Question

I have an app which is a UITabBarController, I have defined two subviews

Both tabs have their Class attribute in the Identity Inspector set to UINavigationController.

Now i have managed to get this far with my coding after VERY LONG trials.

- (void)viewDidLoad {
[super viewDidLoad];

myAppDelegate *appDelegate = (myAppDelegate *)[[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate];
self.managedObjectContext = appDelegate.managedObjectContext;

{



  NSError *error = nil;
  NSFetchRequest *fetchRequest = [[NSFetchRequest alloc] init];
  [fetchRequest setEntity:[NSEntityDescription entityForName:@"User" inManagedObjectContext:self.managedObjectContext]];
  NSArray *fetchedItems = [self.managedObjectContext executeFetchRequest:fetchRequest error:&error];

  NSEntityDescription *entityDesc =
  [NSEntityDescription entityForName:@"User" inManagedObjectContext:self.managedObjectContext];

  // replace the old data with new. this DOESNT WORK
  if (fetchedItems.count > 0)
  {
   Usr *newUsr;
   for (newUsr in fetchedItems)
   {
    if ([newUsr.name isEqualToString:@"Line One"])
    {

     newUsr.uName = @"Line One (new)";

    }
   }
  }

  //add a new default data. THIS ADDS DATA TO MY TABLEVIEW BUT IT DOESNT SAVE THEM TO THE SQLITE
  User *addedDefaultdata = nil;
  addedDefaultdata = [[User alloc] initWithEntity:entityDesc insertIntoManagedObjectContext:self.managedObjectContext];
  addedDefaultdata.name = @"Added new 1";
  [addedDefaultdata release];
 }


NSError *error = nil;
if (![User.managedObjectContext save:&error]) {

    NSLog(@"Unresolved error %@, %@", error, [error userInfo]);
    abort();
}

}

and my appdelegate looks like this:

- (void)applicationDidFinishLaunching:(UIApplication *)application {    

 [application setStatusBarStyle:UIStatusBarStyleBlackOpaque];


 [window addSubview:navigationController.view];
 [window makeKeyAndVisible];

}

now I cannot quire the “User” at all! although i get no errors or warnings!

Any suggestions would be much appreciated!

Thanks

It seems that you may be asking how to update to CoreData?

If so, you need to use the save: method on NSManagedObjectContext, like this:

NSError *error;
[managedObjectContent save:&error];
if (error) {
    ...
}
