I'm attempting to make my iOS6.0 app back compatible with 5.1. I've turned off the obvious things (e.g. autolayout) but am getting stuck at a strange stage.
My app takes data from an XML source and puts it in a core date structure. On iOS 6 this works perfectly. On iOS 5 it gets stuck here
else if (self.dataStorage.documentState == UIDocumentStateClosed) {
NSLog(@"THIS FIRES = db on disk but closed");
[self.dataStorage openWithCompletionHandler:^(BOOL success) {
NSLog(@"THIS NEVER FIRES");
}];
}
If I look at self.datastorage it is what I would expect (a closed managed document) fileURL: file://localhost/ ..... /Library/Application%20Support/iPhone%20Simulator/5.1/Applications/E3E9192D-2DFE-4882-9041-00A1DF9E98D6/Documents/Default%20Database documentState: [Closed]
Edit: Actually works fine with iOS 5.0 or 6.0+. My problem is purely with iOS 5.1 run on the iPhone simulator. Could this just be a bug with the simulator? It will not open a closed UIManagedDocument nor create an non-existing file.
Here is the full code for completeness:
- (void)setDataStorage:(UIManagedDocument *)database
{
if (_dataStorage != database) {
_dataStorage = database;
[self useDocument];
}
}
-(UIManagedDocument*) initialiseDatabase {
if (!self.dataStorage) {
NSURL *url = [[[NSFileManager defaultManager] URLsForDirectory:NSDocumentDirectory inDomains:NSUserDomainMask] lastObject];
url = [url URLByAppendingPathComponent:@"DefaultDatabase"];
self.dataStorage = [[UIManagedDocument alloc] initWithFileURL:url]; // setter will create this for us on disk
}
return self.dataStorage;
}
- (void)useDocument {
if (![[NSFileManager defaultManager] fileExistsAtPath:[self.dataStorage.fileURL path]]) {
// does not exist on disk, so create it
NSLog(@"db not on disk");
[self.dataStorage saveToURL:self.dataStorage.fileURL forSaveOperation:UIDocumentSaveForCreating completionHandler:^(BOOL success) {
NSLog(@"Doesn't fire");
}];
} else if (self.dataStorage.documentState == UIDocumentStateClosed) {
NSLog(@"db on disk but closed");
// exists on disk, but we need to open it
[self.dataStorage openWithCompletionHandler:^(BOOL success) {
NSLog(@"Doesn't fire");
}];
} else if (self.dataStorage.documentState == UIDocumentStateNormal) {
NSLog(@"db on disk and open");
}
}
Thanks
