The NSPersistentStoreCoordinatorStoresDidChangeNotification
notification has nothing to do with changing the iCloud access.
If the user turns off iCloud access or logs out of iCloud then Core Data has to use the fallback store, which is probably empty! You won't get a chance to migrate anything.
However if the app has its own Use iCloud setting then you can test for that change and if set to NO migrate any documents to local storage assuming iCloud is still available.
You can see the expected behaviour in the latest version of Pages. If you have iCloud documents then as soon as you turn off iCloud Documents & Data in the Settings App you loose all access to the Pages documents. However if you go the Pages settings in the Settings App and turn off Use iCloud and then switch back to Pages you will be prompted to Keep on My iPhone, Delete from My iPhone or Keep using iCloud. That is how Apple will expect your app to work.
When the application enters the foreground we check the app specific iCloud settings and if they have changed we take the necessary action.
- If no change has been made then we keep running
- If the iCloud setting has changed then:
- If it is turned OFF ask the user what to do
- If it has been turned ON then share all documents in iCloud
/*! The app is about to enter foreground so use this opportunity to check if the user has changed any
settings. They may have changed the iCloud account, logged into or out of iCloud, set Documents & Data to off (same effect as
if they logged out of iCloud) or they may have changed the app specific settings.
If the settings have been changed then check if iCloud is being turned off and ask the user if they want to save the files locally.
Otherwise just copy the files to iCloud (don't ask the user again, they've just turned iCloud on, so they obviously mean it!)
