Q:

Retrieve data from coredata table to an UIPickerView (inside a textField)

I want to retrieve a list of types from a "table" from my Main.xcdatamodeld (coredata) to put in a UIPickerView. This entity "Type" has only one attribute "name" (string).
If I put some strings in the NSMutableArray it works perfectly. The UIPickerView shows the strings. Above is the simple NSMutableArray.
resultFetch = [[NSMutableArray alloc]initWithObjects:@"Electronics",@"School",@"Kitchen",@"Office", nil];

But when I do a fetch from the coredata I get an error. Here's the code below.
AddItemViewController.m
- (void)viewDidLoad
{
[super viewDidLoad];
// Do any additional setup after loading the view.

nameField.text = [self.currentItem name];
locationField.text = [self.currentItem location];
//typeField.text = [self.currentItem type];
quantityField.text = [[self.currentItem quantity] stringValue];

self.nameField.delegate = self;
self.locationField.delegate = self;
//self.typeField.delegate = self;
self.quantityField.delegate = self;
NSLog(@"ViewDidload before put fetch in array");
//Put fetch in NSArray resultFetch

AppDelegate *myApp = (AppDelegate *) [[UIApplication sharedApplication]delegate];

resultFetch = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];
NSFetchRequest *fetchRequest = [[NSFetchRequest alloc] init];
NSEntityDescription *entity = [NSEntityDescription entityForName:@"Type" inManagedObjectContext:[myApp managedObjectContext]];
[fetchRequest setEntity:entity];

NSSortDescriptor *sortDescriptor = [[NSSortDescriptor alloc] initWithKey:@"name" ascending:YES];
NSArray *sortDescriptors = [[NSArray alloc] initWithObjects:sortDescriptor, nil];
[fetchRequest setSortDescriptors:sortDescriptors];

NSError *error;
NSArray *fetchedObjects = [[myApp managedObjectContext] executeFetchRequest:fetchRequest error:&error];

for (Type *t in fetchedObjects) {

    [resultFetch addObject:t];
    NSLog(@"resultFetch: %@", resultFetch);

}

//Define typePicker
typePicker = [[UIPickerView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0,43,320,480)];
typePicker.delegate = self;
typePicker.dataSource = self;
[typePicker setShowsSelectionIndicator:YES];
typeField.inputView = typePicker;

//Create done button in UIPickerView
myPickerToolbar = [[UIToolbar alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 56)];
myPickerToolbar.barStyle = UIBarStyleBlackOpaque;
[myPickerToolbar sizeToFit];

NSMutableArray *barItems = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];
UIBarButtonItem *flexSpace = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemFlexibleSpace target:self action:nil];
[barItems addObject:flexSpace];

UIBarButtonItem *doneBtn = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemDone target:self action:@selector(pickerDoneClicked)];
[barItems addObject:doneBtn];
[myPickerToolbar setItems:barItems animated:YES];
typeField.inputAccessoryView = myPickerToolbar;
 NSLog(@"End ViewDidLoad");

}

-(void)pickerDoneClicked
{
NSLog(@"Done Clicked");

[typeField resignFirstResponder];
myPickerToolbar.hidden=YES;
typePicker.hidden=YES;
}

- (NSInteger)numberOfComponentsInPickerView:(UIPickerView *)pickerView
{
return 1;
}

- (NSInteger)pickerView:(UIPickerView *)pickerView numberOfRowsInComponent:(NSInteger)component
{
return [resultFetch count];
}

- (NSString *)pickerView:(UIPickerView *)pickerView titleForRow:(NSInteger)row forComponent:(NSInteger)component
{
return [resultFetch objectAtIndex:row];
}

- (void) pickerView:(UIPickerView *)pickerView didSelectRow:(NSInteger)row inComponent:(NSInteger)component
{
typeField.text = [resultFetch objectAtIndex:row];
}

The error is:

It doesn't show the Type names that are inside the database.
Can you help me fetching this "table" properly to put those attribute strings inside a UIPickerView? All I want is a pretty NSMutableArray I can use! :)
Thank you very much for your help.

A:

Problem solved! Changed the line inside for statement from [resultFetch addObject:t]; to [resultFetch addObject:t.name];.
Seems it was too much garbage! :)
