This is based on my understanding. I believe the purpose of this method is to merge the two dictionaries representing the same entity.
Potential Issues:
-
While iterating over the primaryKeyPaths
id dictionaryValue = [dictionary valueForKeyPath:keyPath];
id protoRecordValue = [dictionary valueForKeyPath:keyPath]; //probably meant protoRecord.dictionary.
-
The check for dictionariesContainIdenticalPrimaryKeys is probably unnecessary as the caller is expected to call this only in that case.
Enhancement Suggestion:
- I would suggest truly merging the two dictionaries (copy from dictionary to protoRecord.dictionary). Though I would generally expect this to have been the default behavior, since it should rarely be needed and you documented it very well, this could suggestion can be ignored.
