Sure. Since the data model is now part of the framework project, when you build that framework the model should get built along with the other source files and it will be packaged up into your frameworks Resources directory:${BUILDDIR}/MyFramework.framework/Resources/MyModel.momSince it sounds like you've already got some code that's successfully loading the model when it's included in your application project, you might want to look at the initialization of the NSPersistentStoreCoordinator to see from where the model is retrieved (search for initWithManagedObjectModel:). You'll probably want to have a method that takes care of locating, loading and returning the model, if that code lives in the framework, you can use the class to lookup the framework bundle (otherwise you'll want to look up the framework bundle by it's identifier [NSBundle bundleWithIdentifier:@"com.mycompany.MyFramework"])- (NSManagedObjectModel *)managedObjectModel { if (managedObjectModel) return managedObjectModel; NSBundle *frameworkBundle = [NSBundle bundleForClass:[self class]];NSURL *modelPath = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:[frameworkBundle pathForResource:@"MyModel" ofType:@"mom"]]; managedObjectModel = [[NSManagedObjectModel alloc] initWithContentsOfURL:modelPath];return managedObjectModel; }
I think I'm understanding what you're saying. Now that my model is in a Framework, it's not automatically found and loaded by Core Data. Thing is, so far anyway, I don't have any calls to initWithManagedObjectModel: (I'm just using the Core Data document app template for the app, and the Cocoa Framework template for the Framework). So far, the model is used exclusively within the Framework, although the classes I've created for the entities will likely be exposed in the public API.
But my document object is in the app, and I think that's where the current mom is coming from, right?
Is there a place in my Framework where it gets initialized that I can make its internal MOM magically appear? Is this even the right approach?
