How to upgrade iPad simulator to iPad(Retina) simulator?

Question

我正在使用XCode 3.2.5，并且想在iPad（Retina）模拟器上运行我的应用程序，该怎么做。

Answer 1

You need to install 4.3.1 . It's in the Mac App Store. From the simulator, use the hardware menu and select what you want.

UPDATE: 4.3.1 with iOS SDK 5.1 it appears

Answer 2

There is a way to install the iOS 5.1 SDK to xcode 4.2, which works with Snow Leopard, and you can also include iOS 5.1 for the simulator.

Here are the steps on how to do it: http://www.iphonedevsdk.com/forum/iphone-sdk-development/100229-snow-leopard-sdk-5-1-a.html

It is working on my application currently in development but I haven't subitted it to the app store yet.
