Instance Attribute Details

- (NSMergePolicyType) mergeType (readonly)

The merge type. (read-only)

Returns:

  • (NSMergePolicyType)

Instance Method Details

- (Object) initWithMergeType(ty)

Returns a merge policy initialized with a given policy type. If you override this method in a subclass, you should invoke the superclass’s implementation with the merge policy that is closest to the behavior you want.This will make it easier to use the superclass’s implementation of resolveConflicts:error: and then customize the results.Due to the complexity of merging to-many relationships, this class is designed with the expectation that you call super as the base implementation.

Parameters:

  • ty (NSMergePolicyType)

    A merge policy type.

Returns:

  • (Object)

    A merge policy initialized with a given policy type.

- (Boolean) resolveConflicts(list, error:error)

Resolves the conflicts in a given list. If you override this method in a subclass, you should typically invoke the superclass’s implementation in addition to performing your own operations.

Parameters:

  • list (Array)

    An array of merge conflicts (instances of NSMergeConflict).

  • error (Pointer)

    If an error occurs, upon return contains an NSError object that describes the problem.

Returns:

  • (Boolean)

    YES if the conflicts were resolved successfully, otherwise NO.
