Please note that momcom is experimental. Although it is intended to be at least as […]
From the README on github: momdec is a command-line tool for Mac OS X that takes a compiled Core Data model and decompiles it to produce an equivalent xcdatamodel or xcdatamodeld suitable for use in Xcode.

Today I’m continuing my series of iCloud/Core Data-related posts with a discussion of duplicate data, how and why it occurs, and what you can do about it in your apps. As with my previous post in this series, today I’m sticking to how things are supposed to work and sometimes actually do. The problem of […]

If you’re using Swift, see my newer post that updates this one for Codable and Swift examples. Mac OS X and iOS include support for JSON and property lists, two generic structured data formats, […]
“Don’t you just turn on iCloud syncing, and it all Just Works?” “Just works” might be the customer experience; but developers must do more to support iCloud (or any new OS technology) than simply flipping a switch. Things can go wrong, and they often do. Rich gets into a lot more technical detail than most […]
As some of you know, I’ve spent a lot of time over the past year working with iCloud in Mac and iOS apps. Specifically, working with Core Data’s built-in support for iCloud. I’m going to be doing a series of blog posts covering iCloud in various ways. Today I’m going to start off with an […]
