Creating .sqlite file from Core Data store?

Question

I\'ve seen tutorials in books and on websites that offer .sqlite files for download. The sqlite files are used for Core Data.

How do I get a .sqlite file FROM

Answer 1

If you are specifically trying to create a Core Data store, you use this method:

NSPersistentStoreCoordinator 
    addPersistentStoreWithType:(NSString*)storeType 
    configuration:(NSString*)configuration
    URL:(NSString*)storeURL 
    options:(NSDictionary*)options
    error:(NSError**)error

You must have already associated a NSManagedObjectModel with your persistent store coordinator object. If the store at storeURL does not exist, it will be created; otherwise it will be opened.
