CoreData: How to fetch a specific object using a predicate

Question

The situation:

I fetch a complete table from my sqllite core data database and show it in a TableView like this:

NSEntityDescriptio         


        

Answer 1

If you have an entry object called entry, it would be a predicate like this:

NSPredicate *predicate = [NSPredicate predicateWithFormat: @"(SELF = %@)", entry];

Which is roughly equivalent to

NSPredicate *predicate = [NSPredicate predicateWithFormat: @"(objectID = %@)", entry.objectID];

For a NSManagedObjectID, you get something like:

NSPredicate *predicate = [NSPredicate predicateWithFormat: @"(objectID = %@)", myEntryID];
