Preguntas de plantillas de proyectos de datos principales en Xcode 4

Question

He creado una aplicación de iPhone basada en la ventana en Xcode 4 con datos principales.Con respecto a los bits de datos principales, tengo algunas preguntas:

1. En el archivo de encabezado del delegado de la aplicación, no hay que las propiedades de datos de 3 núcleos no aparezcan como variables de instancia?I.E. No hay variables que se enumeran en la sección @Interface, pero hay propiedades para ellos y se sintetizan en el archivo de implementación.¿Es este correcto?

2. En el mecanismo de persistencia predeterminado sqlite?Veo en el método "persistentstorecoordinator" que el almacén es "... urlbyappingpathComponent: @" coredataprojecttemplate.sqlite "

3. ¿Dónde y cuándo se creará el archivo real de Persisternidad de SQLite?No puedo ver en el código de la plantilla donde sería esto?¿Tienes que agregar tu propio código para crear esto?

Answer 1

1 I assume you are referring to the following:

@synthesize managedObjectContext=__managedObjectContext;
@synthesize managedObjectModel=__managedObjectModel;
@synthesize persistentStoreCoordinator=__persistentStoreCoordinator;

This format allows you to create accessors for a variable of a different name (i.e. the getter / setter accessor names can be different from the variable name). If the variable has not been previously defined then the synthesize operation will automatically create a synthesized instance variable for you.

2 As you've inferred from the filename, the default persistent store for CoreData is SQLite; however it's not limited to this one type. When creating your persistent store for the first time you send a message to the persistentStoreCoordinator in which you set the addPersistentStoreWithType to one of the following:

NSSQLiteStoreType
NSBinaryStoreType
NSInMemoryStoreType

To be honest, unless you have a good reason to change it you're probably best just sticking with SQLite.

3 The location URL of the persistent store is built by establishing the directory that the application is executing within (with a message to applicationDocumentsDirectory - written elsewhere in your code) then appending the filename of the persistent store to it via the URLByAppendingPathComponent parameter. You can modify this to add sub-folders or changing the filename if you wish.

Answer 2

1. The modern Objective-C runtime can synthesize not only accessors but also storage for properties. You can specify the ivars that back your properties yourself if you want to, or you can let the runtime figure it out.

2. SQLite is the only backing store for Core Data supported in iOS.

3. If I'm not mistaken, the file will get created (if it doesn't already exist) when the managed object context is saved. The URL is associated with the persistent store when it's added to the persistent store coordinator.

Answer 3

3) That storeURL is the name and location of the Core Data database. If you want to put it elsewhere just change the base directory. You may want to consider the Application Support directory.
