UISearchdisplay controller, tableView, core data - question, thanks

[bella]

Hi,

I have integrated the search function to my app to query core data/.sqlite and it works ok. But I have a problem and I am not sure which class configuration should I look at, could someone points me to the light, thanks

Basically my model is this

TableView 1
Display Product Category
selectRow --> TableView2

TableView 2
Display Products of selected Category
selectRow --> TableView3

As I integrated the UISearchBar in TableView 1, I wish to have the function when people search the product they want and it will show up the product's name right away in the table view. I tried, but the result is showing the Category which contains the "searched product".

So, how could I get this to show up correctly and which section of configuration should I look at? Is it the configure cell part? And also, since TableView 1 is a sectioned table view, how could I get that to display correctly when performing search

Table View section

- (NSInteger)numberOfSectionsInTableView:(UITableView *)tableView {
    // Return the number of sections.
	if (self.searchIsActive) {
        return [self.filteredListContent count];
    } else {
		return [[fetchedResultsController sections] count];
	}
}

Now is obviously wrong...


Configure cell, hopefully can display Category when search not active and display Products when search is active

- (void)configureCell:(UITableViewCell *)cell atIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
	NSManagedObject *entity = nil;
	if (self.searchIsActive){
                // Configure the cell to show the searched item's name
		entity = [[self filteredListContent] objectAtIndex:[indexPath row]];
		cell.textLabel.textColor = [UIColor blackColor];
		} else {
		// Configure the cell to show the category's name
		cell.textLabel.textColor = [UIColor blackColor];
		entity = [fetchedResultsController objectAtIndexPath:indexPath];
	}
	cell.textLabel.text = [entity valueForKey:@"nameEN"];
}

The search predicate

- (void)filterContentForSearchText:(NSString*)searchText scope:(NSString*)scope
{
		NSPredicate * predicate = [NSPredicate predicateWithFormat:@"ANY products.nameEN CONTAINS[cd] %@, searchText];
		self.filteredListContent = [[[self fetchedResultsController] fetchedObjects] filteredArrayUsingPredicate:predicate];
}

The core database structure is

Category
nameEN
products --- one to many relations --> Product

Product
nameEN
spec
category --- many to one relation -- > Category

THANK YOU
