Re: Is CoreData on iOS ready for prime time for serious work?

I've used CoreData extensively in various apps developed over several years, including multi-threaded use on two or more threads, and across multiple data stores. Like you have used the confinement method. I've found it very reliable except when bugs have broken the confinement model. Then thing

Is CoreData on iOS ready for prime time for serious work?

I just added CoreData to an app I'm working on. I've been working with CoreData for about a year, not exclusively but pretty regularly so I think I'm experienced enough to set it up properly. However, our testers are experiencing what I feel is more than normal crashes in the main part of the a

faster deep copies?

I've run into a situation where I really need a deep copy of an object. I've implemented this using Apple's recommended approach with NSKeyedArchiver/Unarchiver, and it's nice, simple, and functional. But it's also pretty darn slow -- as in a clear, subjectively apparent performance hit. Has any

iOS Document Interaction Technology

I have the CFBundleDocumentTyes array properly defined. I run my app on the iPad, which I understand, should register support for the document types in CFBundleDocumentTyes with the system. What I expect is that choosing a file of my supported type in DropBox will inform the user that my app ca

Re: NSUserNotificationCenter: Spoofing the app name/icon?

I know from experience that it doesn't use the name from the app that sent the notification; we hit a case where someone who'd been testing an earlier version that they'd renamed to include the version number was seeing that name in the Notification Center even after that copy had been deleted.

Re: Uploading photos to iCloud programatically

If you save images to the camera roll the system will automatically upload them to the photo stream, just as if they'd been taken with the camera. Jamie. On 7 Feb 2013, at 05:42, Balaji M wrote: > Hi, > > I am writing a Mac application which is expected to support uploading > photos to iCloud

NSLinguisticTagger & alarm strings

Greetings, I am new to NSLinguisticTagger and I'm trying to set up an alarm set based on string... "Wake me up at 9 AM" "Set alarm for 10 AM tomorrow" - that sort of thing. What is the best way to tackle this? Should I use NSLinguisticTagger? If so, what's the best way to set it up? I could use s

Re: Pointer was being free was not allocated

Sounds like a classic memory management error. Either you are using a pointer to an object after you've released it, or you are keeping an autoreleased pointer beyond the lifetime of the current autorelease pool without retaining it, or a pointer to an object inside an NSArray or NSDictionary af

NSImage leaks open file in 10.8.2?

Hi, while testing the latest version of my software in 10.8.2, I noticed that there are a lot of open files, more than in 10.6.8. I tracked it down to an animation I use, and the png files I load for that. In Mac OS X 10.6.8, it works fine, and closes the image files after use. But in 10.8.2,
