Schema changes on the iphone, migrations?

Reported by Tys von Gaza | February 10th, 2009 @ 05:13 PM

What happens when the schema changes on the iphone?

Should migrations be implicit when the class definition changes? What about deleting or renaming columns?

    Thanks for creating this ticket Tys - I see from my comment on the blog that I never actually created the ticket.

    From my blog comment:

    My current thought is that tables can be auto-created, and columns can be
    auto added, but column deletion and renaming, as well as more complex 
    operations, will need explicit migrations.
    
    
    One option would be to use SQL files to handle this, another might be 
    to port the Rails migration DSL to objective C (minus the general Ruby support).
