Core Data uniqueness

问题

Is there any way I can validate a value updated in a Core Data entity's property against values of the property in other entities in the collection?

At the moment I create an entity with some default values, add it to arrangedObjects, then get the user to modify the various property values. However, I would like to check a particular property and make sure there're no other entities in the array with the same value for that property. What's the best way to do this?

Many thanks, Dany.

Manually checking is only a few lines of code with a fast enumeration loop:

BOOL unique = YES;
for (NSManagedObject *obj in collection) {
    if (obj.property == value) {
        unique = NO;
        break;
    }
}
