Question

I looked on stackoverflow and found this topic:

More than one RKObjectManager at a time (RestKit)

Unfortunately it is not anymore accurate with the current RetKit as the method:

[[RKObjectManager sharedManager] loadObjectsAtResourcePath:@"/whatever" delegate:self]

returns a void.

So how can I distinguish the different objectLoaders in the method:

- (void)objectLoader:(RKObjectLoader *)objectLoader didLoadObjects:(NSArray *)objects

Or is there a better method to have multiple requests with different URLs? As if I only use one manager, only the last requests call gets executed, and I need to set the manager manually to null to work the second time.

Any help on how to best manage multiple request calls in a short amount of time and to distinguish between them would be great.

Answer 1

After trying many different things I finally found the new equivalent in the documentation.

The trick is to use a block and assing the loader.userData inside the block:

[self.manager loadObjectsAtResourcePath:filter usingBlock: ^(RKObjectLoader *loader) {
        loader.userData = @"identifier";
        loader.delegate = self;
    }];

Where the self.manager just a normal RKObjectManager with appropriate mapping is.
