I am pursuing another course of action for my iOS USB investigation... in the 
meantime, in case I need it, I'd appreciate some assistance with mergeAccessory.

 

first, the associated doc (api.lcdoc) to mergAccessory is a tad out of date... 
referencing LC v 5.5 ... but adjusting for version 8.1.9, while there is a 
"Settings.plist" file in the specified path, it is "unreadable by either by  
Xcode 9.2 or  Xcode 8.2 ==> "The data couldn't be read because it isn't in the 
correct format".  Using an alternative plist reader "Perf Setter", I get a "The 
document 'Settings.plist" could not be opened".

 

I checked the permissions, even copied the file to my user directory, changed 
the permission to Read/Write and get the same messages.  I can open it in 
TextEdit but am hesitant to make and save any changes using that editor since 
the file itself seems to be non-standard... embedded control characters???  Any 
idea of why this file is "inaccessible"?

 

Next, I do not see any key as referenced in the api doc:  
<key>UISupportedExternalAccessoryProtocols</key> ... that's OK.. I assume I'd 
have to create this key but the example only show how to specify the protocol 
... the docs say:

 

"... Each device in the MFi program has a name and one or more protocols it 
supports ..." .. so where does the "name" go?

 

Finally, I don't see what the example code is supposed to be demonstrating.  A 
bit more explanation on that would be appreciated.

 

Cheers!

Doug
