iPhone iOS how to merge Core Data NSManagedObjectContext?

Question

I\'m trying to download some JSON objects in the background and am doing quite a bit of multi threading. Once the operation completes, I noticed that this assertion fails:

Answer 1

In my situation, I'm using a subclass of RKObjectLoader and there's way too many threads and operations to keep track of what's going on. I found that the RKObjectStore can be asked nicely to merge changes for me by asking the loaded object to save itself. (before I was asking [AppUser managedObjectContext] to save itself, which was wrong)

The correct solution involved asking the loaded object to save itself in its own context as follows:

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

    AppUser* user = nil;
    for (id object in objects)
    {
         user = object;
    }
    NSError* error = nil;


/**this call fires the:    
//    - (void)mergeChanges:(NSNotification *)notification
within the rkmanagedobjectstore class and merges changes made in this background operation over to the main contxt
 */
 [[user managedObjectContext] save:nil];

}
