Combining 'AND' and 'OR' Condition in NSPredicate

Question

Back again needing more help with constructing my NSPredicates :(

Category
{
   name:string
   subs<-->>SubCategory
}

SubCategory
{
   name:string
         


        

Answer 1

Addition to @Stuart's answer, you can use NSCompoundPredicate for your OR & AND operations like this.

Obj-C - OR

// OR Condition //

NSPredicate *predicate1 = [NSPredicate predicateWithFormat:@"X == 1"];
NSPredicate *predicate2 = [NSPredicate predicateWithFormat:@"X == 2"];
NSPredicate *predicate = [NSCompoundPredicate orPredicateWithSubpredicates:@[predicate1, predicate2]];

Obj-C - AND

NSPredicate *predicate1 = [NSPredicate predicateWithFormat:@"X == 1"];
NSPredicate *predicate2 = [NSPredicate predicateWithFormat:@"X == 2"];
NSPredicate *predicate = [NSCompoundPredicate andPredicateWithSubpredicates:@[predicate1, predicate2]];

Swift - OR

let predicate1:NSPredicate = NSPredicate(format: "X == 1")
let predicate2:NSPredicate = NSPredicate(format: "Y == 2")
let predicate:NSPredicate  = NSCompoundPredicate(orPredicateWithSubpredicates: [predicate1,predicate2] )

Swift - AND

let predicate1:NSPredicate = NSPredicate(format: "X == 1")
let predicate2:NSPredicate = NSPredicate(format: "Y == 2")
let predicate:NSPredicate  = NSCompoundPredicate(andPredicateWithSubpredicates: [predicate1,predicate2] )

Swift 3 - OR

    let predicate1 = NSPredicate(format: "X == 1")
    let predicate2 = NSPredicate(format: "Y == 2")
    let predicateCompound = NSCompoundPredicate.init(type: .or, subpredicates: [predicate1,predicate2])

Swift 3 - AND

    let predicate1 = NSPredicate(format: "X == 1")
    let predicate2 = NSPredicate(format: "Y == 2")
    let predicateCompound = NSCompoundPredicate.init(type: .and, subpredicates: [predicate1,predicate2])
