Hi Paulo,

Does EOF have any type of transient properties similar to what Core Data has?

If not imagine this simple scenario.

1 - You have an eo with a couple of ivars (ie, they are nor EO properties thus not saved to disk, EOF has no clue about them). 2 - You try to pass this EO to aother EC via EOUtilities.localInstanceOfObject 3 - What happens is that the new EO does not have the ivars from the initial EO.

Can one, at some point during the localInstanceOfObject force these ivars to be copied to the new EO?


Which localInstanceOfObject? The only implemented in EOUtilities just grabs the EOGlobalID from the EO and uses it to create a fault in the second EC. Some veogen templates create a method like:

public PriorityList localInstance(EOEditingContext editingContext) { return (PriorityList)EOUtilities.localInstanceOfObject(editingContext, this);
    }

You could override that and copy the transient properties. Or you could get fancy and be generic and use the RTTI to find and copy any ivars.
