Hi everyone,
I need to store very little data for an application that I am writing.
Is a Core Data based approach the best way to go or are there simpler
ways?
If it's really very little data you need to store, using a property
list to store data may also be sufficient.
However, what the _best_ approach is, really depends on you (and your
application). If writing a CoreData application is easier, you should
go with that. CoreData also lets you choose the backend, but none of
that really adds a lot of overhead if your dataset is small.
If all you need to do is read a piece of data, a plain NSDocument
based application may be just what you need. If your app is a single-
window-type of application, you may not even need a document based
application. Without further information, it's hard to tell which
would be the best application template to use...
If there is a chance that your dataset will become larger in the
future, creating a CoreData application may be the wiser choice.
HTH,
