Feature / Show development profile warning

[iosdec]

Overview

Recently, I noticed a lot of people (including myself) have ran into this issue:

A valid provisioning profile for this executable was not found.

This is caused by the wrong provisioning profile being used. For example, many use cases for this application, are for Ad-Hoc .ipa installations; development provisioning profiles will not work for Ad-Hoc builds, and the user will receive the error above when trying to install the .ipa (through Xcode, ideviceinstaller, etc).

As you can see below, i've added a box for Show dev warning. When this is checked, and a development provisioning profile is selected, a warning will be displayed on screen for the user. I added this checkbox so the user is able to disable this.

Full changes

• Refactored some code
• Tidied up some code formatting to be more readable
• Added functionality in ProvisioningProfile to check the get-task-allow (isDevelopment) value.
• Performing this isDevelopment when a provisioning profile is selected.
• Added a checkbox to enable/disable the isDevelopment check alert.
• Updated min version to 10.13 to disable deprecation warnings.
• Changed signing identity to local.

The project should now run without any changes being made to signing identity.

I think the better option might be a confirmation dialog if a development profile is detected rather than a checkbox to enable or disable detection.

that being said, it would depend on the intended use. I sign apps with the development profile as I’m only installing them on devices registered to my account, so being asked if that’s really what I want would be somewhat annoying.
