Hi All,
Not sure if this is the right place (I am sure someone will let me
know if it is not) I have a iPhone application that has a UITable
view that is backed by core data. I want to perform a reducing search
so that only the items starting with the characters entered into the
search bar are shown. This is normally done with delegate - (void)
searchBar:(UISearchBar *)searchBar textDidChange:(NSString *)
searchText no problem. I am a little confused as I am new to Core
Data how to do this. One of the big problems as I see it is going to
be updating the interface to let it know what to present. I assume an
alternative NSFetchedResultsController needs to be sent to the
UITableView.
So here are my issues:
1) I assume I need to create a NSFetchedResultsController with only
the correct items in it then tell the UITableView to use this as the
dataSource and reload the table?
2) is there a better way than executing a full sorted fetch and
removing those objects that do not conform. ie is there a way of
doing a select where type fetch?
Thanks in advance and sorry if this is a dumb question.
Regards
Damien
