Greetings Programs!

 

When I push the view controller in the following manner, if the filter for the entityDefinition does not return any results, the Add button has no effect. When I navigate down to the points view when in edit mode, the Add button does work if there are no previous records.

 

section.cellActions.didSelect = {
(cell, indexPath) in

// If we're in edit mode or adding a new objective, show the detail view.
if cell.ownerTableViewModel.tableView.editing || cell.ownerTableViewModel.activeCell == nil || cell.ownerTableViewModel.activeCell.boundObject == nil
{
    (cell.ownerSection as! SCArrayOfObjectsSection).dispatchEventSelectRowAtIndexPath(indexPath)
    
    return
}

// If not, go to the list of points for the objective.
let objective = cell.boundObject as! Objective

var viewController = SCTableViewController(style: UITableViewStyle.Grouped)
viewController.navigationBarType = SCNavigationBarType.AddRight
viewController.title = objective.objectiveTitle

let tableViewModel = SCArrayOfObjectsModel(tableView: viewController.tableView, entityDefinition:pointDef, filterPredicate: NSPredicate(format: "objective == %@", cell.boundObject))

viewController.tableViewModel = tableViewModel

cell.ownerTableViewModel.viewController.navigationController!.pushViewController(viewController, animated:true)
}

I also found that when I push the view controller, and add a new record (when other records exist), the following happens:

 

tap Done and the record is not added/committed or show up in the tableview.

 

If I'm in edit mode and navigating down via STV, it's fine.

 

EDIT:

 

I solved this particular problem by adding the following action; it didn't work when there were no records unfortunately:

 

tableViewModel.modelActions.didFetchItemsFromStore = {
    (itemsModel, items) in
    
    itemsModel.dataStore.bindStoreToPropertyName("points", forObject: cell.boundObject, withDefinition: objectiveDef)
}

Hi Wg,

 

Does the newly added objects satisfy your filter condition? Keep in mind that STV tests the newly added objects against your filter and will not display them if they don't satisfy it.

Hi Tarek,

 

When I bindStoreToPropertyName I see the new record; when I don't bind, I don't see the new record and if the filter returns no records, I am unable to add a new record.

Here's where I am right now:

1. When the property "points" (NSSet) is nil, I am unable to add a new record (tapping "+" does nothing)

2. When the property "points" has a record, tapping "+" to add a new record works.

 

section.cellActions.didSelect = {
(cell, indexPath) in

// If we're in edit mode or adding a new objective, show the detail view.
if cell.ownerTableViewModel.tableView.editing || cell.ownerTableViewModel.activeCell == nil || cell.ownerTableViewModel.activeCell.boundObject == nil
{
    (cell.ownerSection as! SCArrayOfObjectsSection).dispatchEventSelectRowAtIndexPath(indexPath)
    
    return
}

// If not, go to the list of points for the objective.
var viewController = SCTableViewController(style: UITableViewStyle.Grouped)
viewController.navigationBarType = SCNavigationBarType.AddEditRight
viewController.title = objective.objectiveTitle

let tableViewModel = SCArrayOfObjectsModel(tableView: viewController.tableView, entityDefinition:pointDef)

tableViewModel.dataStore.bindStoreToPropertyName("points", forObject: cell.boundObject, withDefinition: objectiveDef)

viewController.tableViewModel = tableViewModel

cell.ownerTableViewModel.viewController.navigationController!.pushViewController(viewController, animated:true)
}

Finally figured out a workaround.

 

At first I was adding an empty record so the user could at least add a new record (and trying to remove the empty record after the user added one) but that was nasty so I stopped with that.

 

Then I found that ozie had pretty much the same problem here: http://sensiblecocoa...model-problems/ and was experimenting with a placeholder cell. I was actually going to add an "Add Point" button cell at the bottom (because addNewItemCellExistsInNormalMode does not work with SCArrayOfObjectsModel) but thought I'd wait till the "Add" problem got fixed first - not any more ;-).

 

This solved the problem; now that the items list is not empty (has the button cell), the add button (+) works as expected.

tableViewModel.modelActions.didFetchItemsFromStore = {
    (itemsSection, items) in

    var buttonCell = SCTableViewCell(text: "Add Point", textAlignment: NSTextAlignment.Center)
    buttonCell.cellActions.didSelect = {
        (cell, indexPath) in
        
        (cell.ownerSection as! SCArrayOfObjectsSection).dispatchEventAddNewItem()
    }
    
    items.addObject(buttonCell)
}

Just confirming that this has now been fixed in 4.2.4.
