Note:- In target application FetchedResults delegate was implemented in UITableViewController subclass. And FetchedResultsController was working with child managed object context.
Possible sources of error (please provide an error message):
MOC that provides data to FRC is not of NSMainQueueConcurrencyType.
-controller:didChangeSection:atIndex:forChangeType: is not implemented.

When deleting an object from my Core Data that is fetched using NSFetchedResultsController and displayed in a TableView, it does not update the table. It deletes the object just fine however the row remains there until I swap views and return. I have noticed that this issue has only started happening since iOS8 but could be wrong. Below is my code:
#pragma mark - Fetched Results Controller Delegate
- (BOOL)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView canEditRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
return YES;
}
// Override to support editing the table view.
- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView commitEditingStyle:(UITableViewCellEditingStyle)editingStyle forRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
if (editingStyle == UITableViewCellEditingStyleDelete) {
NSManagedObjectContext * context = [self managedObjectContext];
entity * rowToDelete = [self.fetchedResultsController objectAtIndexPath:indexPath];
[context deleteObject:rowToDelete];
//check that the row has deleted data
NSLog(#"Shhiiiiiiiiii...... You done did delete a row...");
NSError * error = nil;
if (![context save:&error]){
NSLog(#"Error: %#", error);
}
//causes a crash
//[self.tableView deleteRowsAtIndexPaths:#[indexPath] withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationRight];
//DOES NOT UPDATE THE TABLE
[self.tableView reloadData];
}
}
I use all the normall delegates like so:
- (void) controllerWillChangeContent:(NSFetchedResultsController *)controller{
[self.tableView beginUpdates];
}
- (void) controllerDidChangeContent:(NSFetchedResultsController *)controller{
[self.tableView endUpdates];
}
- (void) controller:(NSFetchedResultsController *)controller didChangeObject:(id)anObject atIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath forChangeType:(NSFetchedResultsChangeType)type newIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)newIndexPath{
switch (type) {
case NSFetchedResultsChangeInsert:
[self.tableView insertRowsAtIndexPaths:[NSArray arrayWithObject:newIndexPath] withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationRight];
break;
case NSFetchedResultsChangeDelete:
[self.tableView deleteRowsAtIndexPaths:[NSArray arrayWithObject:indexPath] withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationRight];
break;
case NSFetchedResultsChangeUpdate:{
entity * details = [self.fetchedResultsController objectAtIndexPath:indexPath];
UITableViewCell *cell = [self.tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:indexPath];
cell.textLabel.text = details.detailString;
}
break;
case NSFetchedResultsChangeMove:
[self.tableView deleteRowsAtIndexPaths:[NSArray arrayWithObject:indexPath] withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationFade];
[self.tableView insertRowsAtIndexPaths:[NSArray arrayWithObject:newIndexPath] withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationFade];
break;
}
}
-(void) controller:(NSFetchedResultsController *)controller didChangeSection:(id<NSFetchedResultsSectionInfo>)sectionInfo atIndex:(NSUInteger)sectionIndex forChangeType:(NSFetchedResultsChangeType)type{
switch (type) {
case NSFetchedResultsChangeInsert:
[self.tableView insertSections:[NSIndexSet indexSetWithIndex: sectionIndex] withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationRight];
break;
case NSFetchedResultsChangeDelete:
[self.tableView deleteSections:[NSIndexSet indexSetWithIndex:sectionIndex] withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationRight];
break;
case NSFetchedResultsChangeMove:
NSLog(#"A table item was moved");
break;
case NSFetchedResultsChangeUpdate:
NSLog(#"A table item was updated");
break;
}
}
I have searched on Stack and find the generic response "You need to use [self.tableView deleteRowsAtIndexPaths:#[indexPath] withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationRight];". This does not work.
Thanks in advance for any help. If I do not respond immediately it's because I am taking a breather or asleep ;-)
NSFetchedResultsController should be able to communicate all the changes for you.
Check that the update functions are being called (i.e. narrow down where the failure might be)
Check that the NSFetchedResultsController instance has the delegate set
Check that you are working the the same, or connected, context (i.e. check that there is even a chance of the notification propagating)
I'm not sure if you can ignore re-ordering (might depend on your approach) but imagine that [object A, row 1] is swapped with [object B, row 2], then object B is deleted, how does the system know which table row to delete (unless you do something extra with the information)
Manually deleting a row from the table will cause a crash as the data source will be out of line with the table -- thus, causing all manner of confusion. The delegate methods for the results are there to enable the synchronisation of the actual results with those shown in the table.
I cut the following out of a working demo (although modified a bunch of stuff on the way). It works and receives changes, and updates the table. There are a few blog posts only a google away that will help too.

I have UITableView with NSFetchedResultsController
NSFetchedResultsController *aFetchedResultsController = [[NSFetchedResultsController alloc]
initWithFetchRequest:[self dataFetchRequest]
managedObjectContext:[MLCoreDataService sharedInstance].managedObjectContext
sectionNameKeyPath:#"checked"
cacheName:nil];
aFetchedResultsController.delegate = self;
I've implemented
- (void)controller:(NSFetchedResultsController *)controller didChangeObject:(id)anObject
atIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath forChangeType:(NSFetchedResultsChangeType)type
newIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)newIndexPath
{
UITableView *tableView = self.tableView;
switch(type) {
case NSFetchedResultsChangeInsert:
[tableView insertRowsAtIndexPaths:#[newIndexPath] withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationFade];
break;
case NSFetchedResultsChangeDelete:
[tableView deleteRowsAtIndexPaths:#[indexPath] withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationFade];
break;
case NSFetchedResultsChangeUpdate:
[(MLItemTableViewCell*)[tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:indexPath] setItem:anObject];
break;
case NSFetchedResultsChangeMove:
[tableView moveRowAtIndexPath:indexPath toIndexPath:newIndexPath];
break;
}
[self.tableView reloadData];
}
When I change "checked" property of entity in my row I got a call to
- (void)controller:(NSFetchedResultsController *)controller didChangeObject:(id)anObject
atIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath forChangeType:(NSFetchedResultsChangeType)type
newIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)newIndexPath
with type NSFetchedResultsChangeMove
All is right when I have the same sections amount before editing and after.
But when I have only one section and after editing row should go to the next section I got the following error
2014-07-27 17:37:43.384 mlist[34340:60b] CoreData: error: Serious application error. Exception was caught during Core Data change processing. This is usually a bug within an observer of NSManagedObjectContextObjectsDidChangeNotification. Invalid update: invalid number of sections.

When I try to insert of delete on didChangeObject... method with type NSFetchedResultsChangeMove I have the same error with numbers of rows in sections.
Is there common way to resolve it? And what the right way to do it?

I have two tables, when I check a item in first table it adds into second table, and this part is working perfectly. Now, I want to delete the same item from second table when I un check it from first table. I am using CoreData
Thanks.
If you are using core data the object should be deleted from the context and from both tables.
Make sure you are implementing those functions in your tables:
- (void)controllerWillChangeContent:(NSFetchedResultsController *)controller {
[self.tableView beginUpdates];
}
- (void)controller:(NSFetchedResultsController *)controller didChangeSection:(id <NSFetchedResultsSectionInfo>)sectionInfo
atIndex:(NSUInteger)sectionIndex forChangeType:(NSFetchedResultsChangeType)type {
switch(type) {
case NSFetchedResultsChangeInsert:
[self.tableView insertSections:[NSIndexSet indexSetWithIndex:sectionIndex]
withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationFade];
break;
case NSFetchedResultsChangeDelete:
[self.tableView deleteSections:[NSIndexSet indexSetWithIndex:sectionIndex]
withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationFade];
break;
}
}
- (void)controller:(NSFetchedResultsController *)controller didChangeObject:(id)anObject
atIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath forChangeType:(NSFetchedResultsChangeType)type
newIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)newIndexPath {
UITableView *tableView = self.tableView;
switch(type) {
case NSFetchedResultsChangeInsert:
[tableView insertRowsAtIndexPaths:[NSArray arrayWithObject:newIndexPath]
withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationFade];
break;
case NSFetchedResultsChangeDelete:
[tableView deleteRowsAtIndexPaths:[NSArray arrayWithObject:indexPath]
withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationFade];
break;
case NSFetchedResultsChangeUpdate:
[self configureCell:[tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:indexPath]
atIndexPath:indexPath];
break;
case NSFetchedResultsChangeMove:
[tableView deleteRowsAtIndexPaths:[NSArray arrayWithObject:indexPath]
withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationFade];
[tableView insertRowsAtIndexPaths:[NSArray arrayWithObject:newIndexPath]
withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationFade];
break;
}

I have a rather vanilla UITableView managed by an NSFetchedResultsController to display all instances of a given Core Data entity.
When the user deletes an entry in the table view by swiping over it, tableView:cellForRowAtIndexPath: eventually gets called on my UITableViewController with a nil indexPath. Since I had not expected it to be called with a nil indexPath, the app crashes.
I can work around the crash by checking for that nil value and then returning an empty cell. This seems to work, but I still worry that I may have handled something wrong. Any ideas? Has anybody ever seen tableView:cellForRowAtIndexPath: called with a nil indexPath?
Note that this only happens when the user deletes from the table view by swiping over the cell. When deleting an item using the table view editing mode, it doesn't happen. What would be different between the two ways to delete a cell?
So is it really an OK situation to get a nil indexPath in a table view delegate method?
My view controller code is really standard. Here is the deletion:
- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView commitEditingStyle:(UITableViewCellEditingStyle)editingStyle forRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
if (editingStyle == UITableViewCellEditingStyleDelete) {
// Delete the row from the data source
NSManagedObject *managedObject = [self.fetchedResultsController objectAtIndexPath:indexPath];
[self.moc deleteObject:managedObject];
NSError *error = NULL;
Boolean success = [self.moc save:&error];
if (!success) { <snip> }
// actual row deletion from table view will be handle from Fetched Result Controller delegate
// [tableView deleteRowsAtIndexPaths:[NSArray arrayWithObject:indexPath] withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationFade];
} else { <snip> }
}
This will lead to the NSFetchedResultsController delegate method being called:
- (void)controller:(NSFetchedResultsController *)controller didChangeObject:(id)anObject
atIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath forChangeType:(NSFetchedResultsChangeType)type
newIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)newIndexPath
{
UITableView *tableView = self.tableView;
switch(type) {
case NSFetchedResultsChangeDelete:
[tableView deleteRowsAtIndexPaths:[NSArray arrayWithObject:indexPath] withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationFade];
break;
case NSFetchedResultsChangeInsert: <snip> break;
case NSFetchedResultsChangeUpdate: <snip> break;
case NSFetchedResultsChangeMove: <snip> break;
}
}
And of course, the data source methods are handled by the NSFetchedResultsController, e.g.:
- (NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView numberOfRowsInSection:(NSInteger)section
{
id <NSFetchedResultsSectionInfo> sectionInfo = [[self.fetchedResultsController sections] objectAtIndex:section];
return [sectionInfo numberOfObjects];
}
Many thanks.
It seems like you are deleting the indexPath from table but table data source is not updating.
Did you verify the data source udation process by NSFetchedResultsController is correctly updationg the table data source.?
I would do like this, since you are populating the table directly from your managed context, why not on delete first delete the object from the managed context and then imediately update the table from the context using reloadData. But using your approach i think you need to add beginUpdates and endUpdates:
#pragma mark -
#pragma mark Fetched results controller delegate
- (void)controllerWillChangeContent:(NSFetchedResultsController *)controller {
[self.tableView beginUpdates];
}
- (void)controller:(NSFetchedResultsController *)controller didChangeSection:(id <NSFetchedResultsSectionInfo>)sectionInfo
atIndex:(NSUInteger)sectionIndex forChangeType:(NSFetchedResultsChangeType)type {
switch(type) {
case NSFetchedResultsChangeInsert:
[self.tableView insertSections:[NSIndexSet indexSetWithIndex:sectionIndex] withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationFade];
break;
case NSFetchedResultsChangeDelete:
[self.tableView deleteSections:[NSIndexSet indexSetWithIndex:sectionIndex] withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationFade];
break;
}
}
- (void)controller:(NSFetchedResultsController *)controller didChangeObject:(id)anObject
atIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath forChangeType:(NSFetchedResultsChangeType)type
newIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)newIndexPath {
UITableView *tableViews = self.tableView;
switch(type) {
case NSFetchedResultsChangeInsert:
[tableViews insertRowsAtIndexPaths:[NSArray arrayWithObject:newIndexPath] withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationFade];
break;
case NSFetchedResultsChangeDelete:
[tableViews deleteRowsAtIndexPaths:[NSArray arrayWithObject:indexPath] withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationFade];
break;
case NSFetchedResultsChangeUpdate:
[_delegate configureCell:[tableViews cellForRowAtIndexPath:indexPath] atIndexPath:indexPath];
break;
case NSFetchedResultsChangeMove:
[tableViews deleteRowsAtIndexPaths:[NSArray arrayWithObject:indexPath] withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationFade];
[tableViews insertRowsAtIndexPaths:[NSArray arrayWithObject:newIndexPath]withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationFade];
break;
}
}
- (void)controllerDidChangeContent:(NSFetchedResultsController *)controller {
[self.tableView endUpdates];
NSIndexPath *indexPath = [NSIndexPath indexPathForRow:0 inSection:0];
[self.tableView scrollToRowAtIndexPath:indexPath
atScrollPosition:UITableViewScrollPositionMiddle
animated:NO];
}
I use CoreData in table views and allow the users to delete records and update them all the time, I have them in 4 apps without encountering the problem you mentioned.
I have these FetchedResultsController Delegate Method in my code
- (void)controllerWillChangeContent:(NSFetchedResultsController *)controller {
// The fetch controller is about to start sending change notifications, so prepare the table view for updates.
[self.myTableView beginUpdates];
}
- (void)controllerDidChangeContent:(NSFetchedResultsController *)controller {
// The fetch controller has sent all current change notifications, so tell the table view to process all updates.
[self.myTableView endUpdates];
}
I'm working on an iOS app using the Navigation based, CoreData template.
I would like to select and "scroll to visible" a row after it was inserted into the table view. Ideally i'd like to select it, deselect it and select it again, in order to get a kind of flashing effect.
As i am using the method, that the template provaides, namely:
#pragma mark - Fetched results controller delegate
- (void)controllerWillChangeContent:(NSFetchedResultsController *)controller
{
[self.tableView beginUpdates];
}
- (void)controller:(NSFetchedResultsController *)controller didChangeSection:(id <NSFetchedResultsSectionInfo>)sectionInfo
atIndex:(NSUInteger)sectionIndex forChangeType:(NSFetchedResultsChangeType)type
{
switch(type)
{
case NSFetchedResultsChangeInsert:
[self.tableView insertSections:[NSIndexSet indexSetWithIndex:sectionIndex] withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationFade];
break;
case NSFetchedResultsChangeDelete:
[self.tableView deleteSections:[NSIndexSet indexSetWithIndex:sectionIndex] withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationFade];
break;
}
}
- (void)controller:(NSFetchedResultsController *)controller didChangeObject:(id)anObject
atIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath forChangeType:(NSFetchedResultsChangeType)type
newIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)newIndexPath
{
UITableView *tableView = self.tableView;
switch(type)
{
case NSFetchedResultsChangeInsert:
[tableView insertRowsAtIndexPaths:[NSArray arrayWithObject:newIndexPath] withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationTop];
[self.tableView selectRowAtIndexPath:newIndexPath animated:YES scrollPosition:UITableViewScrollPositionMiddle];
break;
case NSFetchedResultsChangeDelete:
[tableView deleteRowsAtIndexPaths:[NSArray arrayWithObject:indexPath] withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationFade];
break;
case NSFetchedResultsChangeUpdate:
[self configureCell:[tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:indexPath] atIndexPath:indexPath];
break;
case NSFetchedResultsChangeMove:
[tableView deleteRowsAtIndexPaths:[NSArray arrayWithObject:indexPath] withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationFade];
[tableView insertRowsAtIndexPaths:[NSArray arrayWithObject:newIndexPath]withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationFade];
break;
}
}
- (void)controllerDidChangeContent:(NSFetchedResultsController *)controller
{
[self.tableView endUpdates];
}
i am a bit confused and don't know, where to put that selection code.
If i put a
[tableView selectRowAtIndexPath:<#(NSIndexPath *)#> animated:<#(BOOL)#> scrollPosition:<#(UITableViewScrollPosition)#>]
into
- (void)controllerDidChangeContent:(NSFetchedResultsController *)controller,
it selects the row, but deselects it immediately and the scrolling doesn't behave as it should either.
in method controller:didChangeObject:atIndexPath:forChangeType:newIndexPath:
change this section:
case NSFetchedResultsChangeInsert:
[tableView insertRowsAtIndexPaths:[NSArray arrayWithObject:newIndexPath] withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationFade];
[tableView scrollToRowAtIndexPath:newIndexPath atScrollPosition:UITableViewScrollPositionMiddle animated:YES];
insertedIndexPath = newIndexPath; //remember for selection
break;
and add method from UIScrollViewDelegate:
- (void)scrollViewDidEndScrollingAnimation:(UIScrollView *)scrollView {
[self.tableView selectRowAtIndexPath:insertedIndexPath animated:YES scrollPosition:UITableViewScrollPositionNone];
}
remember to add insertedIndexPath variable.
I solved similar problem. I inserted item to beginning of Table and I wanted to select it just right after.
Step 1. - Create a switch to keep state if it shall select first row
#implementation MyTableViewController {
BOOL _selectFirstRow;
}
Step 2. - Switch it to YES while inserting
- (void) controller:(NSFetchedResultsController *)controller didChangeObject:(id)anObject atIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath forChangeType:(NSFetchedResultsChangeType)type newIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)newIndexPath
{
UITableView *tableView = self.tableView;
switch (type) {
case NSFetchedResultsChangeInsert:
[tableView insertRowsAtIndexPaths:[NSArray arrayWithObject:newIndexPath]
withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationFade];
_selectFirstRow = YES;
break;
Step 3. - Create a method to select first row
- (void) selectFirstTableRow
{
[self.tableView selectRowAtIndexPath:[NSIndexPath indexPathForRow:0 inSection:0]
animated:YES
scrollPosition:UITableViewScrollPositionTop];
}
Step 4. - Call the method to select row right after table is updated
- (void) controllerDidChangeContent:(NSFetchedResultsController *)controller
{
[self.tableView endUpdates];
if (_selectFirstRow) {
[self selectFirstTableRow];
_selectFirstRow = NO;
}
}
That's all folks .. if you want select different row, store newIndexPath in class parameter too. That's all. I hope it will help you. Cia!
Mostly same answer as above but with corrected placement of when to call scrollToRowAtIndexPath
in method controller:didChangeObject:atIndexPath:forChangeType:newIndexPath:
change this section:
case NSFetchedResultsChangeInsert:
[tableView insertRowsAtIndexPaths:[NSArray arrayWithObject:newIndexPath] withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationFade];
//save new index path into your own ivar
self.newlyInsertIndex = newIndexPath
break;
if using boiler plate FRC code, cannot scroll to newly inserted index until table updates finished
Do this in method - (void)controllerDidChangeContent:
if (!self.changeIsUserDriven){
[self.tableView endUpdates];
if (self.newlyInsertedIndex){
//ScrollPositionNone == use least amount of effort to show cell
[self.tableView scrollToRowAtIndexPath:self.newlyInsertedIndex
atScrollPosition:UITableViewScrollPositionNone animated:YES];
//cleanup
self.newlyInsertedIndex = Nil;
}
}
and add method from UIScrollViewDelegate:
- (void)scrollViewDidEndScrollingAnimation:(UIScrollView *)scrollView {
[self.tableView selectRowAtIndexPath:insertedIndexPath animated:YES scrollPosition:UITableViewScrollPositionNone];
}
remember to add newlyInsertedIndex ivar
This all did not work for me. What I did was:
when I create a new object, I remember it in an instance variable _newInstance
when the object is saved or the creation cancelled, I clear it: _newInstance = nil;
in controllerDidChangeObject I select the row:
- (void)controllerDidChangeContent:(NSFetchedResultsController *)controller
{
[self.tableView endUpdates];
if (_newObject) {
NSIndexPath *ip = [self.fetchedResultsController indexPathForObject:_newObject];
[self.tableView selectRowAtIndexPath:ip animated:YES
scrollPosition:UITableViewScrollPositionMiddle];
}
}
