xcode - Swift: Breakpoint in CoreData library

Question

XCode 6 Beta 3 using Swift.

In my App I use CoreData. When I run my App in simulator, XCode pops up the debugger with a breakpoint set somewhere in the CoreData library (see screenshot). This happens on several CoreData functions, for example when inserting new records or fetching records from an entity. The breakpoint position is always the same.

This is extremely annoying. When my App fetches 10 records from an entity I have to push the continue program execution button 10 times.

Because this breakpoint is set somewhere in machine code, the breakpoint inspector does not show any breakpoints so I cannot delete it.

Does anyone know how to get rid of it?

Many thanks.

Answer 1

I tracked it down further: The problem only occurs when using custom object classes for the entities. Example:

// User class, defined in User.swift
class User: NSManagedObject {
    @NSManaged var name: String
    @NSManaged var firstname: String
}


// --------------
// code somewhere else
let users = moc.executeFetchRequest(fetchRequest, error: &error)

for object in users {
    let user = object as User   // <-- breakpoint fired here
        println(user.name)
    }
}

---

SOLUTION:

One need to make the custom object class visible to Objective C using the @objc directive:

// User class, defined in User.swift
@objc(User)    // <-- required!
class User: NSManagedObject {
    @NSManaged var name: String
    @NSManaged var firstname: String
}

Thanks to all for your help!
