LC 8.0.0 DP5: building for iOS 9

Post by creepyTowel » Wed Sep 23, 2015 6:15 pm

The release notes for today's DP5 claim compatibility with Xcode 7 for iOS 9.0 builds, but when building for the simulator I'm getting:

could not find plist template for simulator 9.0 target

...and a similar message when building for a real device.

Will we have to wait for DP6?

Thanks!

Hi creepyTowel (nice name by the way) - LC states that this works from Mac OS X 10.10.4 (which presumably means it won't work from Yosemite?) - what version OS are you running on your development machine?

thanks dixie for spotting my incompetent naming :)

I was trying to point out that LC specifically mentioned building from 10.10.4 (as opposed to 10.10.5) ...

Thanks Dave -- that's a good point; I'm on 10.10.5.

Even so, I'm not sure the necessary resources are even in LC 8 (yet). I had a rummage around in the LC 8 resources and there are Device folders for 8.2 and 8.4, plus simulator folders for 6.1, 7.1, 8.2 and 8.4, but I couldn't see anything for 9.0.

Hi folks,

Even though we built and tested the iOS 9 engines, they didn't make it into the installers for 8.0.0-dp-5. Expect 8.0.0-dp-6 shortly. :oops:
