Install and debug iPhone apps without using Xcode. Designed to work on unjailbroken devices.
- Mac OS X. Tested on Lion and Snow Leopard.
- You need to have a valid iPhone development certificate installed.
- Xcode must be installed, along with the SDK for your iOS version.
fruitstrap [-d] <app> [device_id]- Optional
-dflag launches a remote GDB session after the app has been installed. <app>must be an iPhone application bundle, not an IPA.- Optional device id, useful when you have more than one iPhone/iPad connected to your computer
- The included demo.app represents the minimum required to get code running on iOS.
make installwill install demo.app to the device.make debugwill install demo.app and launch a GDB session.
- With some modifications, it may be possible to use this without Xcode installed; however, you would need a copy of the relevant DeveloperDiskImage.dmg (included with Xcode). GDB would also run slower as symbols would be downloaded from the device on-the-fly.
- If the app is not compiled for the right iOS version, fruitstrap will succeed but the app will not run (eg. if your app is iOS 5+ only and the device is running iOS 4, fruitstrap runs and seems to copy the app to the device, but it does not appear in Springboard)
