NSFetchRequest z różnymi właściwościami

Question

Próbuję uzyskać wyraźny wynik z NSPredicate.

Mój kod:

NSFetchRequest *request = [[NSFetchRequest alloc] init]; 
    NSEntityDescription *entity = [NSEntityDescription entityForName:@"Members" inManagedObjectContext:context]; 
    request.entity = entity; 
    request.sortDescriptors = [NSArray arrayWithObject:[NSSortDescriptor sortDescriptorWithKey:@"city" 
                        ascending:YES 
                         selector:@selector(caseInsensitiveCompare:)]]; 

    request.predicate = [NSPredicate predicateWithFormat:@"memberDeleted == %@", [NSNumber numberWithBool:NO]]; 

    NSDictionary *properties = [entity propertiesByName]; 
    request.propertiesToFetch = [NSArray arrayWithObject:[properties objectForKey:@"city"]]; 
    request.returnsDistinctResults = YES; 

    request.fetchBatchSize = 20; 

    NSFetchedResultsController *frc = [[NSFetchedResultsController alloc] initWithFetchRequest:request 
                      managedObjectContext:context 
                      sectionNameKeyPath:nil 
                        cacheName:@"CityCache"]; 
    [request release]; 

    self.fetchedResultsController = frc; 
    [frc release]; 

Problem jest, że wynik powraca wiele razy w tym samym mieście. Ten podmiot ma wielu członków, a każdy poseł ma właściwość "miasto".

Co robię źle?

Dzięki

Answer 1

Upewnij się, aby ustawić resultType z NSFetchRequest do NSDictionaryResultType. Wartością domyślną jest zwracanie rzeczywistych obiektów, przez co zostanie zignorowany propertiesToFetch.

Answer 2

Z pomocą @Alex, oto ostateczny kod, bez FRC:

NSFetchRequest *request = [[NSFetchRequest alloc] init]; 
NSEntityDescription *entity = [NSEntityDescription entityForName:@"Members" inManagedObjectContext:self.managedObjectContext]; 
request.entity = entity; 
request.sortDescriptors = [NSArray arrayWithObject:[NSSortDescriptor sortDescriptorWithKey:@"city" 
                       ascending:YES 
                        selector:@selector(caseInsensitiveCompare:)]]; 

request.predicate = [NSPredicate predicateWithFormat:@"memberDeleted == %@", [NSNumber numberWithBool:NO]]; 

NSDictionary *properties = [entity propertiesByName]; 
request.propertiesToFetch = [NSArray arrayWithObject:[properties objectForKey:@"city"]]; 
request.returnsDistinctResults = YES; 
request.resultType = NSDictionaryResultType; 
request.fetchBatchSize = 20; 

NSError *error = nil; 
NSArray *tempArray = [self.managedObjectContext executeFetchRequest:request error:&error]; 

NSMutableArray *cities = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init]; 
for (int i=0; i < [tempArray count]; i++){ 
    NSDictionary *tempDict = [NSDictionary dictionary]; 
    tempDict = [tempArray objectAtIndex:i]; 

    if ([tempDict objectForKey:@"city"] != nil) 
     [cities addObject:[tempDict objectForKey:@"city"]]; 
} 

//if the tempArray has no nil values, it's more efficient with: 
//NSArray* cities = [tempArray valueForKeyPath:@"city"]; 

self.cityArray = cities; 
[cities release]; 
[request release]; 

ta zwraca NSArray z listy miast.

Dzięki.

Z oficjalnej dokumentacji:

NSManagedObjectContext *context = <#Get the context#>; 

NSEntityDescription *entity = [NSEntityDescription entityForName:@"<#Entity name#>" inManagedObjectContext:context]; 

NSFetchRequest *request = [[NSFetchRequest alloc] init]; 
[request setEntity:entity]; 
[request setResultType:NSDictionaryResultType]; 
[request setReturnsDistinctResults:YES]; 
[request setPropertiesToFetch :[NSArray arrayWithObject:@"<#Attribute name#>"]]; 

// Execute the fetch. 
NSError *error; 
id requestedValue = nil; 
NSArray *objects = [managedObjectContext executeFetchRequest:request error:&error]; 
if (objects == nil) { 
    // Handle the error. 
}
