使用核心数据和更改值时的EXC_BAD_ACCESS

Question

I am relatively new to Obj-C and CoreData. I have successfully used CoreData in the past but I am getting a problem when I try to assign values to the attributes in one of my managedObjects.

So, where I am is that I have instantiated my managedObjectContext and have created a managedObject to save out.

if (managedObjectContext == nil) 
    { 
        managedObjectContext = [(AppDelegate *)[[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate] managedObjectContext]; 
    }

Lesson *Lesson1 = [NSEntityDescription insertNewObjectForEntityForName:@"Lesson" inManagedObjectContext:managedObjectContext];

I then go to edit the values of the managedObject and save it out:

Lesson1.productID = 1;
    Lesson1.purchaseStatus = 1;
    Lesson1.title = @"Happy Birthday to You";
    Lesson1.subtitle = @"Patty & Mildred Hill";
    Lesson1.titleAndSubtitle = @"Happy Birthday to You - Patty & Mildred Hill";
    Lesson1.coverArtFilename = @"beethoven.png";
    Lesson1.durationLabel = @"0:11";
    Lesson1.notes = @"123";
    Lesson1.timing = @"3/4";
    Lesson1.keySignature = @"G";
    Lesson1.difficultyImageFilename = @"easy.png";
    Lesson1.lessonDescription = @"Originally, this song piece was called 'Good Morning to All' and was sung to and by children in school.";
    Lesson1.sheetFilename = @"1_score";
    Lesson1.midiFilename = @"happyBirthdayToYou";
    Lesson1.materialsFilename = @"1_score";
    Lesson1.roll = @"happyBirthdayToYou";
    Lesson1.duration = 11;
    Lesson1.startingIndicatorPosition = 175;
    Lesson1.rollPositionArray = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:   /* 0 */ [NSNumber numberWithInteger:0],
                                                             /* 1 */ [NSNumber numberWithInteger:0],    
                                                             /* 2 */ [NSNumber numberWithInteger:0],
                                                             /* 3 */ [NSNumber numberWithInteger:-65],
                                                             /* 4 */ [NSNumber numberWithInteger:-100],
                                                             /* 5 */ [NSNumber numberWithInteger:-135],
                                                             /* 6 */ [NSNumber numberWithInteger:-185],
                                                             /* 7 */ [NSNumber numberWithInteger:-185],
                                                             /* 8 */ [NSNumber numberWithInteger:-241],
                                                             /* 9 */ [NSNumber numberWithInteger:-306],
                                                             /* 10 */ [NSNumber numberWithInteger:-341],
                                                             /* 11 */ [NSNumber numberWithInteger:-376],
                                                             /* 12 */ [NSNumber numberWithInteger:-426],
                                                             /* 13 */ [NSNumber numberWithInteger:-426],
                                                             /* 14 */ [NSNumber numberWithInteger:-483],
                                                             /* 15 */ [NSNumber numberWithInteger:-548],
                                                             /* 16 */ [NSNumber numberWithInteger:-582],
                                                             /* 17 */ [NSNumber numberWithInteger:-617],
                                                             /* 18 */ [NSNumber numberWithInteger:-666],
                                                             /* 19 */ [NSNumber numberWithInteger:-701],
                                                             /* 20 */ [NSNumber numberWithInteger:-737],
                                                             /* 21 */ [NSNumber numberWithInteger:-799],
                                                             /* 22 */ [NSNumber numberWithInteger:-834],
                                                             /* 23 */ [NSNumber numberWithInteger:-868],
                                                             /* 24 */ [NSNumber numberWithInteger:-918],
                                                             nil];

    NSError *error;
    if (![managedObjectContext save:&error]) {
        NSLog(@"Whoops, couldn't save: %@", [error localizedDescription]);
    }

At this point, if I run the application it gives me the error: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (code=2, address=0x1) when trying to change the value of the productID. It also gives me a warning stating that it is an "Incompatible integer to pointer conversion assigning to "int *" from "int".

I have done some debugging and checked to see if any of my objects are nil and they aren't. When I output the description of my managedObjectContext I get:

Printing description of self->managedObjectContext:
<NSManagedObjectContext: 0x7e8d8b0>

And printing my object, I get:

Printing description of Lesson1:
<NSManagedObject: 0x7e927e0> (entity: Lesson; id: 0x7e7fce0 <x-coredata:///Lesson/tA7BFE664-F978-4983-B5DC-14D3F3ED49812> ; data: {
    coverArtFilename = nil;
    difficultyImageFilename = nil;
    duration = 0;
    durationLabel = nil;
    keySignature = nil;
    lessonDescription = nil;
    materialsFilename = nil;
    midiFilename = nil;
    productID = nil;
    purchaseStatus = 0;
    roll = nil;
    rollPositionArray = nil;
    sheetFilename = nil;
    startingIndicatorPosition = 0;
    subtitle = nil;
    timing = nil;
    title = nil;
    titleAndSubtitle = nil;
})

My debugging skills are limited due to the little knowledge I have so if someone could point me in the right direction I would be very grateful. Thank you.

EDIT

My NSManagedObjectContext was defined in the default way. I've attached my AppDelegate.m below:

#import "AppDelegate.h"

@implementation AppDelegate

@synthesize window = _window;
@synthesize managedObjectContext = __managedObjectContext;
@synthesize managedObjectModel = __managedObjectModel;
@synthesize persistentStoreCoordinator = __persistentStoreCoordinator;

- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions
{
    return YES;
}

- (void)applicationWillResignActive:(UIApplication *)application
{
    // Sent when the application is about to move from active to inactive state. This can occur for certain types of temporary interruptions (such as an incoming phone call or SMS message) or when the user quits the application and it begins the transition to the background state.
    // Use this method to pause ongoing tasks, disable timers, and throttle down OpenGL ES frame rates. Games should use this method to pause the game.
}

- (void)applicationDidEnterBackground:(UIApplication *)application
{
    // Use this method to release shared resources, save user data, invalidate timers, and store enough application state information to restore your application to its current state in case it is terminated later. 
    // If your application supports background execution, this method is called instead of applicationWillTerminate: when the user quits.
}

- (void)applicationWillEnterForeground:(UIApplication *)application
{
    // Called as part of the transition from the background to the inactive state; here you can undo many of the changes made on entering the background.
}

- (void)applicationDidBecomeActive:(UIApplication *)application
{
    // Restart any tasks that were paused (or not yet started) while the application was inactive. If the application was previously in the background, optionally refresh the user interface.
}

- (void)applicationWillTerminate:(UIApplication *)application
{
    // Saves changes in the application's managed object context before the application terminates.
    [self saveContext];
}

- (void)saveContext
{
    NSError *error = nil;
    NSManagedObjectContext *managedObjectContext = self.managedObjectContext;
    if (managedObjectContext != nil) {
        if ([managedObjectContext hasChanges] && ![managedObjectContext save:&error]) {
            // Replace this implementation with code to handle the error appropriately.
            // abort() causes the application to generate a crash log and terminate. You should not use this function in a shipping application, although it may be useful during development. 
            NSLog(@"Unresolved error %@, %@", error, [error userInfo]);
            abort();
        } 
    }
}

         abort() causes the application to generate a crash log and terminate. You should not use this function in a shipping application, although it may be useful during development. 

         Typical reasons for an error here include:
         * The persistent store is not accessible;
         * The schema for the persistent store is incompatible with current managed object model.
         Check the error message to determine what the actual problem was.


         If the persistent store is not accessible, there is typically something wrong with the file path. Often, a file URL is pointing into the application's resources directory instead of a writeable directory.

         If you encounter schema incompatibility errors during development, you can reduce their frequency by:
         * Simply deleting the existing store:
         [[NSFileManager defaultManager] removeItemAtURL:storeURL error:nil]

         * Performing automatic lightweight migration by passing the following dictionary as the options parameter: 
         [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:[NSNumber numberWithBool:YES], NSMigratePersistentStoresAutomaticallyOption, [NSNumber numberWithBool:YES], NSInferMappingModelAutomaticallyOption, nil];

         Lightweight migration will only work for a limited set of schema changes; consult "Core Data Model Versioning and Data Migration Programming Guide" for details.

Answer 1

Isn't productID or any other numeric properties NSNumber* ? Could you try

Lesson1.productID = [NSNumber numberWithInt:1];

Same for purchaseStatus , duration and startingIndicatorPosition
