Are you asking about an NSFetchRequest that notices when objects are added to or changed in your persistent store by another process, or by another thread in the same process?
In the latter case you can use the notifications posted by the NSManagedObjectContext that's being saved, and use that to refresh the objects in the context you're using for your human interface. Multi-process coordination is a much harder problem. -- Chris > On Sep 17, 2016, at 2:37 PM, Frank D.
