My object graph is simple.
I've a feedentry object that stores info about RSS feeds and a relationship called Tag that links to "TagValues" object. Both the relation (to and inverse) are to-many. i.e, a feed can have multiple tags and a tag can be associated to multiple feeds.
I referred to How to do Core Data queries through a relationship? and created a NSFetchRequest. But when fetch data, I get an exception stating,
NSInvalidArgumentException unimplemented SQL generation for predicate
What should I do? I'm a newbie to core data :( I know I've done something terribly wrong... Please help...
Thanks

NSFetchRequest *fetchRequest = [[NSFetchRequest alloc] init];
// Edit the entity name as appropriate.
NSEntityDescription *entity = [NSEntityDescription entityForName:@"FeedEntry" inManagedObjectContext:managedObjectContext];
[fetchRequest setEntity:entity];
// Edit the sort key as appropriate.
NSSortDescriptor *sortDescriptor = [[NSSortDescriptor alloc] initWithKey:@"authorname" ascending:NO];
NSArray *sortDescriptors = [[NSArray alloc] initWithObjects:sortDescriptor, nil];
[fetchRequest setSortDescriptors:sortDescriptors];
NSEntityDescription *tagEntity = [NSEntityDescription entityForName:@"TagValues" inManagedObjectContext:self.managedObjectContext];
NSPredicate *tagPredicate = [NSPredicate predicateWithFormat:@"tagName LIKE[c] 'nyt'"];
NSFetchRequest *tagRequest = [[NSFetchRequest alloc] init];
[tagRequest setEntity:tagEntity];
[tagRequest setPredicate:tagPredicate];
NSError *error = nil;
NSArray* predicates = [self.managedObjectContext executeFetchRequest:tagRequest error:&error];
TagValues *tv = (TagValues*) [predicates objectAtIndex:0];
NSLog(tv.tagName); // it is nyt here...
NSPredicate *predicate = [NSPredicate predicateWithFormat:@"tag IN %@", predicates];
[fetchRequest setPredicate:predicate];
// Edit the section name key path and cache name if appropriate.
// nil for section name key path means "no sections".
NSFetchedResultsController *aFetchedResultsController = [[NSFetchedResultsController alloc] initWithFetchRequest:fetchRequest managedObjectContext:managedObjectContext sectionNameKeyPath:nil cacheName:@"Root"];
aFetchedResultsController.delegate = self;
self.fetchedResultsController = aFetchedResultsController;

The key here is "ANY"
Example from apple:
NSPredicate *predicate = [NSPredicate predicateWithFormat:
@"ANY employees.firstName like 'Matthew'"];
