NOAA data feeds

I apologize if this question is off topic; if it is could someone assist me with where I might find an answer. I'm looking for URL information and, if possible, examples of how to get NOAA weather advisory information via wifi into a Cocoa application. Any help would be gratefully appreciated.

The error from -[NSManagedObjectContext executeFetchRequest:error:]

I'm fairly religious about returning NSError objects up through my call stack and handling them a high level. But I always find myself in a quandary with -[NSManagedObjectContext executeFetchRequest:error:]. First, this method is almost always used at a very low level in my code, so I have a v

WebView pagination for printing

Hi, my original quest was to print a table view with pagination and headers, but when I initially tried it, I didn't see how I could include the column headings in it, and found on the lists the suggestion to use a WebView and put the data in there to print it. When I tried it, I see that it ju

You should be able to accomplish what you want using NSPredicate. You can also use the C functions topper and tolower to detect and distinguish case differences. On Jul 20, 2010, at 1:39 PM, Roland King wrote: > I want to sort some NSStrings in such a way that words group case > insensitively,
