NSDocument tracks the moving of the file and this is done after the
code in configurePersistentStore... is executed.
One way to possibly work around this is to delay the setting of the
URL and modification date. At the end of your
configurePersistentStore... implementation, do a call to
[self performSelector:@selector(setDelayedURL:) withObject:url
afterDelay:0.5f];
and then
- (void)setDelayedURL:(NSURL *)url {
[self setFileURL:url];
[self setFileModificationDate:[[[NSFileManager defaultManager]
fileAttributesAtPath:[url path] traverseLink:YES]
fileModificationDate]];
}

The data model for my Core Data document-based app (10.5 only) is in a
framework, so automatic schema upgrades using a Core Data mapping
model don't appear to work. It appears that the Core Data machinery
doesn't find the appropriate data models or mapping model when they
are not in the app's main bundle. So, instead of using the automatic
migration, I'm running a migration manually in
configurePersistentStoreCoordinatorForURL:ofType:... in my
NSPersistenDocument subclass (code below). I migrate the persistent
store to a temporary file and then overwrite the existing file if the
migration succeeds. The document then presents an error with the
message "This document's file has been changed by another application
since you opened or saved it." when I try to save. As others on this
list have pointed out, this is due to my modification of the
document's file "behind its back". I tried updating the document's
file modification date, as shown below, but I then get an error dialog
with the message "The location of the document "test.ovproj" cannot be
determined." when I try to save. I'm less sure of the reason for this
error, but trading one unnecessary message (in this case) for an other
isn't quite what I was going for.
Can anyone offer some guidance? Is there a way to manually upgrade the
schema for a document's persistent store without triggering one of
these (in _this_ case unnecessary) warnings?
thanks,
Barry
