Copying a Simulator build to another machine?
Hey folks,
I've been digging around the net to see if there was a simple way to copy a Simulator build from one Mac to another. We basically need a build to work on a different Mac in the office for video capture purposes.
One post I found suggests that it's basically a matter of creating a release Simulator build, deploying it and copying the app's folder from:
~/Library/Application Support/iPhone Simulator/User/Applications/
We've tried to copy the folder alone, as well as together along with the apps associated .sb file.
We've tried that, but our app hangs on our startup screen when we try to execute the app on another Mac. The app builds and executes fine on the build machine's Simulator as well as on our provisioned devices (iPhone and Touch). We don't believe that there are any file system dependencies in the app.
The secondary Mac's sdk/Simulator version (OS 2.2.1, Simulator V2.2 [v77.4.9]) is basically identical.
There was some discussion on another thread about editing the .plist entry for the app, but it was conclusive as to whether that was necessary.
Anyone have any experience with this? Does the method described above actually work?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
