You’ll learn how to store, fetch, and validate data; provide it efficiently to views; and much more. Isted and Harrington first give you a firm grounding in the technology, and then present real-world examples. They present multiple sample projects, as well as a start-to-finish, chapter-length case study. Coverage includes • Understanding Core Data’s features, classes, and interactions • Using Core Data in MVC-based iOS app development • Mapping relational data to object models, and building them with Xcode 4’s Data Modeler • Working with managed objects and using UITableView to display them • Creating predicates to match numbers, data, and objects • Maintaining compatibility across versions of an app’s data model • Tracking managed object contexts across view controllers • Using Core Data’s automatic Undo functionality • Integrating abstract entities, entity inheritance, and multiple view controllers into a complete app • Optimizing for iOS devices’ tight memory limits • Diagnosing and fixing common Core Data problems Introducing Addison-Wesley’s new Core Frameworks Series, written for experienced iOS developers by world-class Mac and iOS developers, these are the first comprehensive, code-rich reference guides to Apple’s Core Frameworks.
