iPhone: Save boolean into Core Data

Question

I have set up one of my core data attributes as a Boolean. Now, I need to set it, but XCode keeps telling me that it may not respond to setUseGPS.

[ride setUseG         


        

Answer 1

The "fix" for this (IMHO, it's a bug in Apple's SDK) is to add the following code to your CoreData-generated class. NB: if you do this in a category, in a separate file, then you don't have to re-copy/paste it each time you regenerate the CoreData classes inside Xcode

- (BOOL)useGPS
{
    [self willAccessValueForKey:@"useGPS"];
    BOOL myuseGPS = [[self primitiveUseGPS] boolValue];
    [self didAccessValueForKey:@"useGPS"];
    return myuseGPS;
}

- (void)setUseGPS:(BOOL)newValue
{
    [self willChangeValueForKey:@"useGPS"];
    [self setPrimitiveUseGPS:[NSNumber numberWithBool:newValue]];
    [self didChangeValueForKey:@"useGPS"];
}
