Debugging an iOS app with an external accessory connected via Dock

Question

Am I missing something glaringly obvious or is there no way to debug an iOS app which uses an external accessory that\'s connected via the 30-pin dock without using a bucket loa

Answer 1

You could connect the external accessory to another iOS device (not the one tethered to the Mac running the Xcode debugger). Then tunnel all your EA framework messages from the accessory connected device to the device running the app being debugged over a pair of wifi sockets. Look at the code for tunneling accelerometer messages from a device to the iOS Simulator (a common trick for debugging game code on the Simulator) for one example of how this could be done.
