xcodebuild代码签名错误：未找到匹配的代码签名身份：

Question

I am currently in process of developing my app and haven't enrolled into App developer program. Though have mac, created apple id and developing my app with simulator. Question:

1. Do you need to enroll (pay $99) to use xcodebuild (the commandline tool to build)?

2. I have created a starter app and was able to build successfully with XCode (IDE) but while building the same with xcodebuild -target -sdk iphoneos -configuration debug I was getting

    Code Sign error: No matching codesigning identity found: No codesigning identities (ie certificate and private key pairs) matching “XXXXXX” were found. CodeSign error: code signing is required for product type 'Application' in SDK 'iOS 7.1'* 

And then I changed "Code signing identity" and updated with "Don't code sign"

Now I am only getting

CodeSign error: code signing is required for product type 'Application' in SDK 'iOS 7.1'*

Any idea how to fix this?

Answer 1

In order to build for the device you need pay $99 to enroll in the iOS developer program. Without doing that you can only compile for the simulator

Answer 2

So the two issues are that you are telling it to build for device with -sdk iphoneOS there should be a different parameter you can pass for that flag which will represent the simulator.

You can also help guide it by adding the -destination flag and telling it you want to build with the intention of the simulator.

This information can be found on the xcodebuild manual page
