Cannot create an NSPersistentStoreCoordinator with a nil model
Been having my first crack at Core Data and I'm getting the following error when running my code on my device, but it works fine on the simulator..
* Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidArgumentException', reason: 'Cannot create an NSPersistentStoreCoordinator with a nil model'
Some of my methods that might be causing the problem:
- (NSManagedObjectContext *)managedObjectContext
{
if (__managedObjectContext != nil)
{
return __managedObjectContext;
}
NSPersistentStoreCoordinator *coordinator = [self persistentStoreCoordinator];
if (coordinator != nil)
{
__managedObjectContext = [[NSManagedObjectContext alloc] init];
[__managedObjectContext setPersistentStoreCoordinator:coordinator];
}
return __managedObjectContext;
}
/**
Returns the managed object model for the application.
If the model doesn't already exist, it is created from the application's model.
*/
- (NSManagedObjectModel *)managedObjectModel
{
if (__managedObjectModel != nil)
{
return __managedObjectModel;
}
NSURL *modelURL = [[NSBundle mainBundle] URLForResource:@"RugbyOnTv" withExtension:@"momd"];
__managedObjectModel = [[NSManagedObjectModel alloc] initWithContentsOfURL:modelURL];
return __managedObjectModel;
}
/**
Returns the persistent store coordinator for the application.
If the coordinator doesn't already exist, it is created and the application's store added to it.
*/
- (NSPersistentStoreCoordinator *)persistentStoreCoordinator
{
if (__persistentStoreCoordinator != nil)
{
return __persistentStoreCoordinator;
}
NSString *storePath = [[self applicationDocumentsDirectory] stringByAppendingPathComponent: @"RugbyOnTV.sqlite"];
NSURL *storeUrl = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:storePath];
NSDictionary *options = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:[NSNumber numberWithBool:YES], NSMigratePersistentStoresAutomaticallyOption, [NSNumber numberWithBool:YES], NSInferMappingModelAutomaticallyOption, nil];
__persistentStoreCoordinator = [[NSPersistentStoreCoordinator alloc] initWithManagedObjectModel: [self managedObjectModel]];
NSError *error = nil;
__persistentStoreCoordinator = [[NSPersistentStoreCoordinator alloc] initWithManagedObjectModel:[self managedObjectModel]];
if (![__persistentStoreCoordinator addPersistentStoreWithType:NSSQLiteStoreType configuration:nil URL:storeUrl options:options error:&error]) {
NSLog(@"Unresolved error %@, %@", error, [error userInfo]);
abort();
}
return __persistentStoreCoordinator;
}
- (NSString *)applicationDocumentsDirectory {
NSArray *paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES);
NSString *basePath = ([paths count] > 0) ? [paths objectAtIndex:0] : nil;
return basePath;
}
EDIT
I copied and pasted the managedObjectContext method (below) from Apple's CoreDataBooks and it now works..Not really sure why though
- (NSManagedObjectModel *)managedObjectModel {
if (managedObjectModel != nil) {
return managedObjectModel;
}
managedObjectModel = [[NSManagedObjectModel mergedModelFromBundles:nil] retain];
return managedObjectModel;
}
