I can not reproduce this error. I just upgraded to 12.3. This must be some problem with your configuration. I downloaded the 0.1.8.2 version from the release page and it opened without error.

I'm going to update Xcode as well to make sure that it got nothing to do with the Xcode version. Which version of Xcode do you use ? Did you download the version from the website or compile it yourself ? If you compile it yourself make sure that commit 548d238ff36205c34c91479877315dd095535583 is included in your build.

I've got Xcode 13.3 (13E113) on my Mac. I've tried your version (Intel) and my complied version (Apple Silicon), both had the same error.

Schlaubischlump commented 2 years ago

Yes Xcode 13.3 is the problem. No idea why, yet.

SimDeviceSet *set = [context defaultDeviceSetWithError:&error]; in SimDeviceWrapper.m

This line seems to be the problem. Xcode 13 seems to have changed the API to access the simulator devices. This call seems to block forever without a response.

Edit: I'll look into this. For now just comment out the line and compile the project yourself. I'll try to provide a fix on the weekend. In every case this call should definitely not block without an error. This is an apple bug.

No worries, thanks for that!

@Schlaubischlump, looks like that workaround fixed the issue for now.

Schlaubischlump commented 2 years ago

I found and fixed the error last night and uploaded the changes now. Apple removed a function I was using to simulate the location in the iOS simulator. I fixed the bug and implemented a couple of checks to try to prevent this kind of bug in the future. I'll upload 0.1.8.3 to address the issue, when I got a little bit more time. The source code is updated right now.
