Sending array of dictionary from iPhone to watchkit app - swift

Question

Code:
AppDelegate.swift
func application(application:UIApplication!,
handleWatchKitExtensionRequest userInfo: [NSObject : AnyObject]!,
reply: (([NSObject : AnyObject]!) -> Void)!)
{
let entityDescription =
NSEntityDescription.entityForName("Quote",
inManagedObjectContext: managedObjectContext!)
let request = NSFetchRequest()
request.entity = entityDescription
let pred = NSPredicate(format: "(quoteDate = %#)", "2015-03-08")
request.predicate = pred
var error: NSError?
var objects = managedObjectContext?.executeFetchRequest(request,
error: &error)
if let results = objects {
if results.count > 0 {
arrQuotes = NSMutableArray()
for(var i=0;i<results.count;i++){
let match = results[i] as! NSManagedObject
var quote = match.valueForKey("quote") as! NSString
arrQuotes.addObject(quote)
}
var dict = ["test": arrQuotes]
reply(dict)
} else {
}
}
catecontroller.swift
override func awakeWithContext(context: AnyObject?) {
super.awakeWithContext(context)
arrQuotes = NSMutableArray()
var dict = ["test" : arrQuotes]
if !WKInterfaceController.openParentApplication(dict, reply: { (reply,error) -> Void in
println("\(reply)") //your reply data as Dictionary
self.arrQuotes = dict["test"]!
println("\(self.arrQuotes.count)")
}) {
println("ERROR")
}
I am doing a sample watchkit project.What i am trying to do is fetch data from iPhone side and send it to watchkit app.I try to return the value as array of dictionary.but in watchkit side i am getting array count as zero.I do not know where i went wrong?any help will be appreciated.thanks in advance

Answer 1

I would guess that you have some trouble in your iOS app function. I think your reply closure is most likely not being called. I would try to simplify your logic first to make sure the reply is actually coming back correctly. Then you can work on passing the data correctly. I would simply the logic to the following first:
catecontroller.swift
override func awakeWithContext(context: AnyObject?) {
super.awakeWithContext(context)
WKInterfaceController.openParentApplication(["dummy": "dictionary"]) { reply, error in
println("Reply: \(reply)")
println("Error: \(error)")
}
}
AppDelegate.swift
func application(
application: UIApplication!,
handleWatchKitExtensionRequest userInfo: [NSObject : AnyObject]!,
reply: (([NSObject : AnyObject]!) -> Void)!)
{
// Worry about this logic later...
reply(["test": "value"])
}
Once you have this simplified version passing the data correctly with no errors, then you can add the data passing logic.
