I hope there's a more clever solution, but I'm just not finding it.

I have several dates in my CoreData store, and when I load them up, I
get back NSCFDate objects. But what I really want are NSCalendarDate
objects, so I can manipulate them more easily.

I get around this by copying it as such:

NSCalendarDate* realDate = [[NSCalendarDate alloc]
initWithString:[[myManagedThing valueForKey:@"myDate"] description]];

But this just seems...clunky to me.

Is there a slicker way? Or is this the way to go?

I'd use

NSTimeInterval time = [[myManagedThing valueForKey:@"myDate"] timeIntervalSinceReferenceDate];
realDate = [[NSCalendarDate alloc] initWithTimeIntervalSinceReferenceDate:time];


which avoids the date->string->date conversion.
