I have two entities in core data (call them entityOne and entityTwo). I have a entityOne<--->>entityTwo relationship between them.

I am now trying to code an NSPredicate to fetch entityTwo objects on the following basis:

  1. Fetch entityTwo objects that have a relationship with a specified entityOne object.

  2. Filter out those entityTwo objects which have no value for one of their attributes.

I am best doing both of these in an NSPredicate or is there a better way?

I am trying the following:

NSPredicate *predicate = [NSPredicate predicateWithFormat:@"(attribute <> "") AND (relationship == entityOne"];
    [request setPredicate:predicate];

Any pointers on coding great fully received.
