Does correcting a value in an validation method mark the object as dirty?
- by dontWatchMyProfile
From the docs:
If you change the input value in a
validate:error: method, you must
ensure that you only change the value
if it is invalid or uncoerced. The
reason is that, since the object and
context are now dirtied, Core Data may
validate that key again later. If you
keep performing a coercion in a
validation method, this can therefore
produce an infinite loop.
So when I modify a value in a validation method, the context gets dirtied? And the next time I save, the validation happens again - and when I change the value even if the validation is OK, then the context is again dirtied, and revalidated again - and I change the value, and Core Data validates, again, because the context is dirtied. And so on...for ever... is that right? Or did they try to say something different?
