核心数据按两个描述符排序

Question

I have used core data in my ios app. Now i have one table in which there are two columns .

1. Category

2. Order (In which there are NSNumber 1, 2 ,5)

I want to fetch data so It will first sort alphabetically by Category name and than by Order Number.

I have used below code :

NSEntityDescription *entity_Maintness = [NSEntityDescription
                                             entityForName:@"Maintness" inManagedObjectContext:__managedObjectContext];
    [fetchRequest_Maintness setEntity:entity_Maintness];


    NSSortDescriptor *sortDescriptor1 = [[NSSortDescriptor alloc] initWithKey:@"type" ascending:YES];

    NSSortDescriptor *sortDescriptor = [[NSSortDescriptor alloc] initWithKey:@"serialNumber" ascending:NO];


    NSArray *sortDescriptors12 = [[NSArray alloc] initWithObjects:sortDescriptor1, sortDescriptor, nil];
    [fetchRequest_Maintness setSortDescriptors:sortDescriptors12];

But the data are sorted only by Category not by Serial Number.

Thanks for Help.

The code above looks ok. Maybe there is an issue elsewhere in your code? Here is some code I quickly generated for you that may serve as starting point??

#import "MainViewController.h"
#import "Maintness.h"

@interface MainViewController ()
@property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UITextField *type;
@property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UITextField *serialNumber;
@property (strong, nonatomic) NSManagedObjectContext *context;
- (IBAction)addButtonPressed:(id)sender;
- (IBAction)retrieveButtonPressed:(id)sender;

@end

@implementation MainViewController

#pragma mark - lazy instantiation
- (NSManagedObjectContext *)context{
    if (!_context){
        id appDelegate = (id)[[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate];
        _context = [appDelegate managedObjectContext];
    }
    return _context;
}

#pragma mark - core data interactions
- (IBAction)addButtonPressed:(id)sender {
    NSError *error = nil;

    Maintness *newMaintness = nil;

    newMaintness = [NSEntityDescription insertNewObjectForEntityForName:@"Maintness" inManagedObjectContext:self.context];

    newMaintness.type = self.type.text;
    newMaintness.serialNumber = self.serialNumber.text;

    if (![self.context save:&error]) {
        NSLog(@"Oh no - error: %@", [error localizedDescription]);
    } else {
        NSLog(@"It appears the details were added ok");
    }

}

- (IBAction)retrieveButtonPressed:(id)sender {
    NSError *error = nil;
    // Set up fetch
    NSFetchRequest *fetch = [[NSFetchRequest alloc] init];
    // Set up entity
    NSEntityDescription *entity = [NSEntityDescription entityForName:@"Maintness" inManagedObjectContext:self.context];
    [fetch setEntity:entity];
    // Set up sorting
    //   - sorts in order of array
    NSSortDescriptor *primarySortDescriptor = [[NSSortDescriptor alloc] initWithKey:@"type" ascending:YES];
    NSSortDescriptor *secondarySortDescriptor = [[NSSortDescriptor alloc] initWithKey:@"serialNumber" ascending:NO];
    NSArray *sortDescriptors = @[primarySortDescriptor, secondarySortDescriptor];
    [fetch setSortDescriptors:sortDescriptors];

    NSArray *results = [self.context executeFetchRequest:fetch error:&error];

    for (Maintness *result in results) {
        NSLog(@"type: %@ serial number: %@", result.type, result.serialNumber);
    }
}
@end
