Core Data brings a lot of power to an app and continues to evolve, but it can have rough spots when you’re working in Swift. What if you want to save an enum pr a struct? Does it help if your data is Codable? What’s the best way to create Swift-friendly model classes? This session will cover techniques and gotchas for integrating Core Data with your Swift code<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n

It’s a bit of a mystery to me why Xcode’s generated code for Core Data continues<\/a> to be so unhelpful compared with mogenerator<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n

Another option for his enum<\/code> example is that, if you have the ability to change the enum<\/code>’s definition, you can make it @objc enum<\/code>. Then you can just declare the @NSManaged<\/code> property using the proper type instead of having to write a getter and setter. The disadvantage of this, though, is that an @objc enum<\/code> only shows up as the type name<\/a> if you ask for its description<\/code>. To see the actual case, e.g. when logging, you would need to implement CustomStringConvertible<\/code>.<\/p>\n\n

There are also a lot more videos from the try! Swift Conference<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n
