Good afternoon,
I am following the tutorial on Windows 7 for an Ipad on IOS 9.3.5 :
https://medium.com/flutter-community/developing-and-debugging-flutter-apps-for-ios-without-a-mac-8d362a8ec667 and I'm stuck at rebuilding the Flutter Tool. (Last part of the tutorial)
I downloaded (from the link of the tutorial) and copied in C:\src\flutter\bin the libimobiledevice, ideviceinstaller and which binaries.
Then I ran the git apply ios.diff which gives me multiple errors, sometimes it's just about mac.dart, and sometimes it's more like this :
error: patch failed: packages/flutter_tools/lib/src/ios/devices.dart:103
error: packages/flutter_tools/lib/src/ios/devices.dart: patch does not apply
error: patch failed: packages/flutter_tools/lib/src/ios/ios_workflow.dart:26
error: packages/flutter_tools/lib/src/ios/ios_workflow.dart: patch does not apply
error: patch failed: packages/flutter_tools/lib/src/ios/mac.dart:124
error: packages/flutter_tools/lib/src/ios/mac.dart: patch does not apply
Then I found this command in here : git: patch does not apply
git apply --reject --whitespace=fix mychanges.patch
What I got was : (don't mind the content of the Future<String>, it's because I've already changed it to what it was supposed to be)
Checking patch packages/flutter_tools/lib/src/ios/mac.dart...
error: while searching for:
Future<String> getAvailableDeviceIDs() async {
try {
final ProcessResult result = await processManager.run(<String>['idevice_id', '-l']);
if (result.exitCode != 0)
throw ToolExit('idevice_id returned an error:\n${result.stderr}');
return result.stdout;
} on ProcessException {
throw ToolExit('Failed to invoke idevice_id. Run flutter doctor.');

At this point I manually pasted the right content in the mac.dart file (as you might have seen in the error above), but I am still not sure everything went well because of the :
error: patch failed: packages/flutter_tools/lib/src/ios/mac.dart:124
Anyway, I kept going and ran the command to rebuild the flutter tool:
bin\cache\dart-sdk\bin\dart --snapshot=.\bin\cache\flutter_tools.snapshot --packages=.\packages\flutter_tools\.packages .\packages\flutter_tools\bin\flutter_tools.dart
Finally, the output is this :
C:\src\flutter>bin\cache\dart-sdk\bin\dart --snapshot=.\bin\cache\flutter_tools.snapshot --packages=.\packages\flutter_tools\.packages .\
packages\flutter_tools\bin\flutter_tools.dart

^^^^^^^^^^^^^
packages/flutter_tools/lib/src/ios/ios_workflow.dart:20:30: Error: The getter 'iMobileDevice' isn't defined for the class 'IOSWorkflow'.
- 'IOSWorkflow' is from 'package:flutter_tools/src/ios/ios_workflow.dart' ('packages/flutter_tools/lib/src/ios/ios_workflow.dart').
Try correcting the name to the name of an existing getter, or defining a getter or field named 'iMobileDevice'.
bool get canListDevices => iMobileDevice.isInstalled || (xcode.isInstalledAndMeetsVersionCheck && xcode.isSimctlInstalled);
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Is this "iMobileDevice" related to this libimobiledevice ? I can run any of the ideviceinstaller.exe or idevice_id.exe, so I guess I installed it correctly.
I am missing something important to correct this error ?
Thanks a lot for your time :)
