Hi Sorry, I wasn't explicit enough in my mail - my operation does have it's own context, and when I fetch against it, awakeFromFetch is not sent, so my initialization code doesn't get executed. The operation is added to a custom (i.e. not main one) NSOperationQueue, which does have max concurrency > 1. Hmm - I thought *every* NSOperation needs it's own managed object context, even if used in operation queue with max concurrency == 1 as it still gets executed "concurrently" regarding to main thread?
Anyway I've solved my problem by lazily creating required objects and use a bit more complicated mechanisms to pass exact instances from main thread to my operation (this is primarily used for unit testing where I need to inject non-default objects and I can only do this prior than executing the code). However I still don't understand why awakeFromFetch is not sent in secondary thread - I can't find any clue in documentation? Is this a bug or is it a feature? I'm running on 10.6.2.
