xcode - iOS 11 simulator

[Idan Aizik-Nissim]

Hi,

Ever since (yesterday...) I upgraded my xcode to the latest version (from 8 to 9), 

Intellij (w/ flutter plugin) and the iOS simulator aren't in sync.

Running the app does work but not debugging, hot reload, restart.. well every single options (except running)

Only getting this message in the console printed over and over:

com.apple.CoreSimulator.SimDevice.(ABC123.....etc....) (com.apple.videosubscriptionsd): Service only ran for 0 seconds. Pushing respawn out by 10 seconds.

Any idea why?

Thanks in advance,

Idan

I am having the same issue, with iPhone X simulator.

Hi Idan,

i can‘t tell you why this is broken so I can‘t fix it either - but I can tell what workaround works for me, which is switching to master branch.
So essentially
1. git checkout master
2. flutter upgrade
Hot reload etc. should work again.

Greetings,
Marius

Thanks Marius!

as you suggested and @mit-mit on github

$ flutter channel master

$ flutter doctor

fixed the problem

Just a quick heads up that as of last night (Pacific time), the alpha branch has been updated and includes Xcode 9 and iOS 11 support.

Cheers,

Chris

Are there plans to add iOS delopment on Windows? Currently on Windows we can test Android versions on an emulator or attached android phone but I don't think that is possible for the iOS version.

Correct - under the covers, Flutter still relies on Xcode for the iOS build tooling, which Apple only ships for macOS.

Thanks! And just to be clear: There no plans to add this functionality so the only way to develop for iOS is to get an apple computer?

We know of no supported way of building an app for iOS without xCode, and xCode is currently only available on macOS. So that is really a question for Apple.

I've heard of solutions such as https://www.npmjs.com/package/remotebuild which supposedly allow one to build *from* a windows machine but *using* the XCode installation on a remote Mac.  I'm not aware of anyone attempting to wire up the `flutter` build tool to support something like that however.

Flutter-built UIs run anywhere the Flutter runtime does, so if you're just doing UI work, you could theoretically just use an Android device/emulator on Windows while still doing UI work for the iOS version of your app.  If you hit the `o` key while using `flutter run` it will switch the current platform reported to the flutter framework.

Hope that helps.

Thanks Eric.  The "o" key option is helpful and I think that testing on Android is good enough for my purposes.  I guess in any case a mac will be needed to deploy the app to the app store once I get that far.

Not an endorsement, nor have I actually tried it myself, but looks like there are Mac-as-a-service providers out there. A quick search turned up: https://www.macincloud.com/pages/xcode.html which appears to be developer-focused.

[Michael Humphreys]

That's interesting - looks good.

Sorry to go back to this.

Is it possible to do a build from a Windows PC to a iOS simulator or device connected to a macOS ?

Something akin to what is possible on the Xamarin platform.

Many thanks

There are some cloud providers that rent out Mac's on an hourly or daily basis. I haven't tried any of them myself yet through.
