Is the problem that you aren't able to make the connection from the delegate object to the text view inside Interface Builder, or that the connection is made but the text doesn't appear? I've just built a quick test project in Xcode 3.2.3 and the insertText: method seems to be working ok. Thanks, Tim Hi Brian, please email me a copy of your project so far and I’ll take a look (zip up the entire directory containing the project and all code files–though you can safely remove the Build directory entirely if upload speed is a problem).

I am reading four books on the go while studying Objective C and yours has to be the best because so far - up to Chapter 4 you have not lost me. So great. However, I am writing with a query In Chapter 4 I am doing the sample on textview and I have double checked all the hand written code and I am receiving a message entitled Issues because Interface 3.2 cannot cope with insert text. So everything succeeds but does not print out on the screen. I downloaded up to date SDK recently so I was wondering if you have any thoughts on this.

Howe Sun, 28 Mar 2010 12:33:02 +0000 http://www.timisted.net/blog/?page_id=72#comment-1456 I just bought your book (Beginning Mac Programming) yesterday and must say that over the course of my 25 year IT career I have read MANY technical books and manuals and simply yours is one of the absolute best that I have ever read. The book is dead-on for the intended target of a brand new developer. Many writers are so far removed from what an entry-level person needs that they loose them early into their book. Most writers also use the book to prove to themselves and their peers how smart they are and almost appear to refuse to bring themselves down to the level or their audience. I am half way through your book despite just purchasing it yesterday. I am very much enjoying the book and believe it to be worth every penny of the purchase price. Thank you for writing such a Great Book. - John E.

There are various resources on the web that offer other solutions, such as: http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/blog/2008/per-object-ordered-relationships-using-core-data Thanks, Tim Hi Diethard, I’m not sure how much information there will be on maintaining order, but you might find the post here:

I´m new in Core Data, but through reading and looking for examples in the internet, I´m now able to do the first steps and get data out of my first Data Model. My problems are in the following: I have a parent and a child entity in a to-many relationship. I have not found a possibility to get the children of a specific parent in a sorted or FirstIn-FirstOut sequence, of course the children are stored in a NSSet in the parent. Will you write something about this in your book? Sincerely, Diethard Hi Tim,

The past few days have been like drinking from a fire hydrant so it's refreshing to see some nice, concrete examples of how all this stuff fits together. Thanks again and looking forward to more great posts. Sincerely, Kenny Hey Tim,
