That's pretty much right on. The documentation can seem like its
written for people who already know the subject or at least know what
they need to do with it, not for those who are coming to it for the
first time.
I'll voice my agreement too. The Core Data documentation isn't that
great for this info. The only way I got anywhere was making several
toy projects that used Core Data in various ways. Maybe some tutorials
of the same?
John, Roland, Corey, Steve, others - can you please provide examples
of where you feel the Core Data documentation is talking over the
heads of developers, especially in the "Core Data Programming Guide"
and "Core Data Basics" books?
I'm not asking this to be disagreeable -- it's a genuine, honest
question. This seems to be a common issue given the questions on this
list, on comp.sys.mac.programmer.help, on Panic's CocoaDev wiki, on
#macdev, and elsewhere. I'd really like to know what it is that makes
a lot of the available information about Core Data difficult to get
one's head around.
Getting to the bottom of it will help everyone -- Apple, the developer
community at large, and those of us who try to specifically help
developers with the technology. I know I'd like to explain it in the
most effective way possible whenever I do... :)
