This is 'business logic' that belongs in your model. Subclass NSManagedObject for your Cell entity (remember to set the entity to use the custom subclass in your data model) and put the "create-my-dependent-object(s)-and-establish-relationships" logic inside the -awakeFromInsert method. > Also, the starting location of the cell in the CellMapView is determined by > fetching all existing cells in the context and figuring out the first spot > that is not occupied by a previously created cell. Same as above; determine this in -awakeFromInsert and configure as necessary. > What gives? Is overriding "newObject" not the way to go in my situation? For this?
