I'm debugging a problem with Save As in a Core Data document, and I'm not sure
if the following is part of the main show, or a sideshow.
A document contains only one object in a given entity. I've written a little
debugger method which simply fetches all objects of a given entity and logs the
result. [1]
Before my Save As operation, running this method logs an array of one object,
as expected. But after the Save As, it logs an empty array (empty fetch). But
wait, if I then change an attribute of the "missing" object, using the app's
GUI, and re-run this logging method, the object reappears in the new fetch
result. And it has the same pointer address and permanent objectID as before.
And its -isFault and -isDeleted are both NO, both before and after its
dis/reappearance.
Is there any Core Data behavior that might explain this?

[1] This is in a window controller subclass.
- (void)debugLogObjectsEntityName:(NSString*)entityName {
NSManagedObjectContext* moc = [[self document] managedObjectContext] ;
[moc processPendingChanges] ; // Has no effect.
NSFetchRequest* fetchRequest = [[NSFetchRequest alloc] init] ;
NSArray* fetches = nil ;
if (moc) {
[fetchRequest setEntity:[NSEntityDescription entityForName:entityName
inManagedObjectContext:moc]] ;
fetches = [moc executeFetchRequest:fetchRequest
error:NULL] ;
}
[fetchRequest release] ;
NSLog(@"This doc contains %d objects of entity %@:\n%@",
[fetches count],
entityName,
[fetches shortDescription]) ;
// -shortDescription is a method I've written to give pertinent info
// about managed objects and collections of managed objects, without
// filling the console/screen like -[NSManagedObject description] does.
