Namaste! I'm having trouble with an implementation of drag-and-drop for a core-data-based application.
Scenario: I'm implementing the drag destination for file names coming from an application (like Finder). The receiving window will take the filenames and create the appropriate records for the core-data entity that is the basis of the window. The drop isn't so much the issue, but rather what to do with it. If there is a better way to do this, I'd appreciate hearing about it. After trying: 1. Adding to the array controller for that entity, 2. Adding to the main managedObjectContext, 3. Adding to a distinct managedObjectContext, And finding that 1 & 2 weren't workable (didn't go too far with #1 as the add method didn't do what I wanted, and #2 wouldn't create the default data as stipulated by the class file for the entity and did a great deal of hangtime), #3 works just fine (no crashes, and default data populates as expected) EXCEPT I can't seem to get the secondary MOC to notify the primary MOC of the additions. I've seen the dox for -mergeChangesFromContextDidSaveNotification (and then the refreshObject to follow), however, I could not find a complete example of its implementation (where does that go, etc.). So, I'm not sure where to go with this - I could use a good example or better explanation. Many thanks in advance! Peace, Love, and Light, /s/ Jon C.
