Unless an Apple Simulator Control Device is installed, a 'briefcase build iOS' will fail. It can be determined from the command
xcrun simctl list devices
. A successful output will return a number of iOS devices.I added a "try" routine to check if the Apple Simulator Control devices are installed. If just the line
"== Devices ==" is returned, an exception is raised and a helpful message is added to the Preamble
The problem is described in Issue 2286. Unless the full Xcode app along with the iOS SDK is installed,
a
briefcase build iOS
will fail.Fixes #2286
