CoreData: migration from 2 models

Question

I have general app model, after was released any body can do plug-in for it, this plug-in can determine new db parts which merged with my general db. After some time i 'll release new db version^ and plug-in writers may release new version of their dbs. So i need map old version of merged db into new version. How i can do this?

You need to review the migration documentation in Core Data. Core Data has migration built into it and you can either do light-weight automatic migration or you can create a mapping model for more complex situations.
