Enum IosXcodeVersion

java.lang.Object
java.lang.Enum<IosXcodeVersion>

All Implemented Interfaces:
Comparable<IosXcodeVersion>
public enum IosXcodeVersion extends Enum<IosXcodeVersion>

Which Xcode the build server compiles an iOS build with.

The constants are the majors a current build server image carries. That domain belongs to the image rather than to this framework, so it moves on its own schedule and this enum can only follow at the pace of a release -- which is why leaving the attribute unset is the normal thing to do, and why a version outside this set is still reachable through a plain codename1.arg.ios.xcode_version=<version> line in codenameone_settings.properties. That is not a conflict: an attribute left at DEFAULT writes nothing, so there is no second declaration to clash with.

A minor version is the same story -- the builder accepts 27.1 and this cannot spell it. The constants cover the case that is worth type checking, which is naming a whole major the servers do not have.

The pre-26 values this hint once took -- 12.4, 11.3 and the Xcode 7 to 10 chain before them -- are deliberately absent. They name Xcodes that no current build server installs, so offering them as typed constants would promise a selection that cannot happen. A project still carrying one of them in its properties file keeps whatever it has always built with.

    • DEFAULT

      public static final IosXcodeVersion DEFAULT

      Say nothing, and let the build server choose.

      It prefers its own default and falls back to the newest Xcode it actually carries, so a server that has not been re-imaged keeps building and logs which Xcode it used. This is the right answer for almost every application: pinning a version opts out of that fallback.

    • XCODE26

      public static final IosXcodeVersion XCODE26
      Xcode 26.

    • XCODE27

      public static final IosXcodeVersion XCODE27
      Xcode 27.

  • Method Details

    • values

      public static IosXcodeVersion[] values()
      Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared.
      Returns:
      an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

    • valueOf

      public static IosXcodeVersion valueOf(String name)
      Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)
      Parameters:
      name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.
      Returns:
      the enum constant with the specified name
      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name
      NullPointerException - if the argument is null
