ios build command not working - invalid simulator syntax maybe?

[rconstantine]

Hello,

if I run “quasar dev -m cordova -T ios -e iPhone-X,com.apple.CoreSimulator.SimRuntime.iOS-12-2”, then I get an error that says

“xcodebuild: error: Unable to find a destination matching the provided destination specifier:
{ platform:iOS Simulator, OS:latest, name:iPhone X }
The requested device could not be found because no available devices matched the request.”

Note that iOS 13 is the latest, not 12.2, which is what I specified. So for some reason, it ignored that part of what was passed in. Also note that I do have 12.2 installed and quite a lot of devices are available for 12.2.

It then lists a bunch of possible simulators in the same curly brace syntax, including the one I specified.

Alternatively, if I run “quasar dev -m cordova -T ios” it selects the latest iPhone model and latest OS version. This works just fine. Also, I seem to be able to specify any device so long as it used the latest OS. I just can’t use an older OS.

If I try other methods, like using the UUID as presented in the list I’m shown, it gets pretty far in the build and only fails at the simulator startup.

Like this: “quasar dev -m cordova -T ios -e 321C3176-2AFC-4333-8763-A810611F10EC”

Generates this error: “Error: Unhandled error. (’[ios-sim] Device type “com.apple.CoreSimulator.SimDeviceType.321C3176-2AFC-4333-8763-A810611F10EC” could not be found.\n’)”

Notice, that it expects to put whatever is passed into the -e parameter on the end of “com.apple.CoreSimulator.SimDeviceType.”, but that doesn’t seem to work.

It seems like a change was made and now not all of the modules in the chain understand each other.

Has anyone seen this? Any idea which module is at fault so I could open a bug report there? ios-sim, maybe?

Note that I think I was also able to get to the same point where just ios-sim was failing if I passed in something like this in the -e parameter:

{ platform:iOS Simulator, id:321C3176-2AFC-4333-8763-A810611F10EC, OS:12.2, name:iPhone 7 }

Once again, this just got added to the end of the “com.apple.CoreSimulator.SimDeviceType.” string, so of course it didn’t work.

Nobody else building/testing for various older iOS devices?

I’m having the same issue, but I can’t even get the “quasar dev -m cordova -T ios” to work. Really frustrating. I upgraded quasar hoping the tooling might have been out of date, but no luck. I can’t run my app in any iOS now, SPA and Android work fine … sigh.
