I've done something similar in two of my projects. However, I only shared the sqlite file, not the momd.
I created a command-line build tool, and generated a sqlite coredata store with it. Then I copy the sqlite into my iOS project and add it to the Copy Bundle Resources phase. I do NOT copy the momd. I reference the same xcdatamodel file in both projects and each one builds its own copy. Perhaps the sqlite file is shareable but the momd is not? -Heath On Aug 25, 2011 3:31 PM, "Fritz Anderson" <fri...@manoverboard.org> wrote: > iOS 4.3 Simulator, Xcode 4.1, Lion 10.7.1 > > I'm having trouble generating a Core Data store and opening it in an iOS app (in the Simulator so far). > > My iOS app has to initialize a large, read-only dataset — a 12,000-word vocabulary with definitions.

They share one managed-object class and a data model. The builds for both compile the data model into a .momd. It's not the same momd, but VersionInfo.plist in both is identical. The command-line tool takes the .momd and the vocabulary text, and produces vocab.sqlite in SRCROOT. Using Navicat for SQLite Lite, I verified that the contents of the file are (as far as I can tell) what I expect. > > The iOS target copies vocab.sqlite as a resource. I verified (by eye and by an assertion in code) that it is in the .app bundle.

The command-line tool takes a .momd as an argument; I've tried pointing it at the .momd inside the bundle; still "incompatible." > > From everything I know to check, I'm doing this right. I've found nothing to suggest you can't put a Mac-generated store into an iOS app, and much to suggest that you should. I'm stymied.
