visionOS SDKs missing

[noahsmartin]

Description

The visionOS SDKs seem to have gone missing from the macos14 GitHub action runners. A couple days ago it worked, today I get this error: { platform:visionOS, id:dvtdevice-DVTiOSDevicePlaceholder-xros:placeholder, name:Any visionOS Device, error:visionOS 1.2 is not installed. To use with Xcode, first download and install the platform }

This is with Xcode 15.4, I've also tried updated to 16.0 but get the error that visionOS 2.0 is not installed. You can see that issue here: https://github.com/EmergeTools/SnapshotPreviews-iOS/actions/runs/11056651930/job/30718675120?pr=202

Is there any way to build for visionOS is a GitHub action runner?

Hey there!

It's kinda expected behaviour. See details here:

• [macOS] Xcodes visionOS platform will be removed from macOS-14 images on September 23, 2024 #10559

We'll keep this issue on board for better informing for some time.

TL;DR:

• macOS-14 images do not ship visionOS platform

Possible workarounds:

• to use macos-15 image
• to install visionOS in runtime with:

            sudo xcodebuild -runFirstLaunch
            sudo xcrun simctl list
            sudo xcodebuild -downloadPlatform visionOS
            sudo xcodebuild -runFirstLaunch
