I have an NSFetchedResultsController which displays a list of items in a table view, including a count of an associated entity. When an object is added for this association (using addXXXObject), no callbacks are called to notify my controller of the update.

How can I receive a notification of an object being added to the parent entity's NSSet, or otherwise force the fetched results controller to update?

To be clear, I'm currently retrieving the count using parent.children.count, which may be suboptimal. Is there a better way to go about this whole thing? It's basically just a screen like the iPhone Mail app, with folders showing a count of messages inside.
