I am trying to save a PFObject
that has a PFFile
as an attribute. I am using the new Local Datastore for iOS, so I would like to save this PFObject
with the saveEventually()
method.
The problem I am encountering is that the saveEventually()
method doesn't seem to like saving the PFFiles
. I tried to saveEventually()
my object without any PFFile
attached, and that worked fine. As soon as my PFFile
was reattached, Xcode threw a couple of breakpoint notices (errors?) but did not terminate the app, and it appears as though all went well - however a check on the Parse Data Browser confirms that the save did not go through.
Prior to the Local Datastore feature I don't believe this save would have been possible - it would have thrown the "Unable to saveEventually a PFObject with a relation to a new, unsaved PFFile."
error. It seems as though the Local Datastore feature has fixed this, as it states in the iOS Local Datastore docs:
"Pinning a PFObject is recursive, just like saving, so any objects that are pointed to by the one you are pinning will also be pinned. When an object is pinned, every time you update it by fetching or saving new data, the copy in the local datastore will be updated automatically. You don't need to worry about it at all."
I have updated the SDK to the latest version (v1.6.2). Any ideas?
PFFiles still don't support saveEventually

You could pinInBackgroundWithBlock
and if successful save the PFFile to a temporary folder in you app bundle and delete it when necessary or unpinned
