Question

Seem to be having some issues storing the current date in a core data field…

Here is the code…

NSDate *today= [NSDate date];

NSLog(@"the current date is %@",today);

[review setDate:today];

NSLog(@"Date %@", review.date);

Here is the log…

2012-03-26 23:24:39.187 Review Writer[17813:fb03] the current date is 2012-03-26 22:24:39 +0000
2012-03-26 23:24:39.188 Review Writer[17813:fb03] Date (null)

Here is the declaration…

@interface Review : NSManagedObject

@property (nonatomic, retain) NSDate * date;

@end

Answer 1

How did you declare review?

The most likely culprit is that review has not been set to an actual instance of Review and is still nil.
