CoreData (for iphone) storing images

Question

i wonder if its a wise choice to store images with core data into binary property

say i have a collection of movies and i want to save the image dvd cover into a pro

Answer 1

It occurred to me that you can use another approach which might be better if you're already subclassing NSManagedObject for your movie entity.

You can implement the didSave or willSave method on the NSManagedObject and check isDeleted property. If it is deleted, delete the image from disk.
