Basic debugging

  • lldb commands
    • ti/ thread info
      • EXC_BAD_INSTRUCTION = CPU doesn't understand an instruction
        • typically used in assertions -> Assertion failure
    • bt / thread backtrace
  • prints all frames on the stack of the current thread

Common Save Patterns

Standard background save

Assuming that you don't care which NSManagedObjectContext is used, and you just want to make some changes and save them in the background, use the following method. 90% of the time, this is what you'll want.

NSManagedObjectSubclass *myObject = [NSManagedObjectSubclass MR_findFirst];

[MagicalRecord saveWithBlock:^(NSManagedObjectContext *localContext) {

Localize all the strings!
import Foundation
infix operator | {}
func | (lhs: String, rhs: String) -> String {
return NSLocalizedString(lhs, comment: rhs)
}
postfix operator | {}
postfix func | (s: String) -> String {
return NSLocalizedString(s, comment: "")
}

Integrating Swift With Objective-C

Introduction

  • Swift is modern, type-safe, expressive, performant

  • but Objective-C remains a first-class citizen

  • Same design patterns, Cocoa APIs

  • "We do not want you to rewrite or stop improving your existing code!"

  • Should you use unowned or weak for delegates?

  • To expose Objective-C to Swift, use a bridging header
