Topic : Attaching debugger via lldb to remote process on tv device Current status I launch an app on a remote tv device that is paired to a macbook using the command xcrun devicectl device process launch --start-stopped -d XXXX-XXXXXX, com.metasample.SampleApp -j launch.json App is launched in stopped state and waiting for debugger to be attached to continue execution Using the XCode->Debug->Attach to Process, I am able to select the process and connect to the process and execute the app through the debugger. Expectation I would want to replace step 3 and use a command line instead to attach the debugger to the remote process instead of doing it via XCode.(the reason is to automate the execution without any manual intervention) I know the process id of the app on the remote tv device when i inspect the launch.json file that is created when the launch the app. eg pid 312 I also know the ip address of the device eg ip 192.168.178.29 However I do not know how to establish the debug session using lldb from command line. I launch lldb in the command line and execute these commands platform select remote-tvos target create /Users/works/apps/SampleApp-Payload/SampleApp.app/SampleApp gdb-remote 192.168.178.29: "what is the port?" - I do not know what port to connect to? Many Thanks for your suggestions and inputs on how to connect to the remote app via command line lldb.

I am trying to retrieve the crash logs from the iPhone programatically. The use case is, we are testing many different apps on an iPhone as part of the CI/CD process. As part to this CI/CD process, when an app crashes, we want to retrieve the crash logs from the iPhone and send a notification to the development team with the crash log. So is there a way to extract the crash logs programatically. Also what is the naming convention for a crash log file that is created in an iPhone. Thanks!

I have Xcode 15.1 and iPhone 14 with iOS 17.3. Developer mode is enabled on the iPhone. I am executing the command xcrun devicectl diagnose -k -v I encounter errors when the command is executed (Truncated some output without any errors to be within 7000 char limit) Using verbose logging.
