Isn’t it just annoying as all get out the way the simulator keeps renaming where it puts your app when you’re trying to sort out how things are working? Well, for all of us that have ever resorted to putting in a log statement at startup to track the current install path, help is now at hand!
I was having one of those days where dealing with the iPhone’s
eccentricities just made me want to let loose and build a quick Mac
app. This is the result.AspenExtractor is a really small utility to make peeking at the apps
stored in the simulator easier. Instead of a folder listing of all
those magic keys, it presents the apps as a searchable table of app
name, bundle ID, and the file space of the documents and library
folders.It’s version 0.1, just because I threw it together in a few hours, and
it doesn’t even have an icon yet. But it does have a ‘Reveal in
Finder’ button, which opens the folders of the selected apps, for your
meddling about and forensics. But I figured it’d be useful, and to see
if I should develop it into a more complete app.http://unlogica.com/bhamon/AspenExtractor.app.zip
Enjoy.
Handy little sucker to have around. Grab it now!
