Xcode8: Xcode didn't show any valid simulators until quit and restart

Originator:markd
Number:rdar://27236716 Date Originated:7/7/2016
Status:Open Resolved:
Product:Develoer Tools Product Version:Version 8.0 beta 2 (8S162m)
Classification:Serious Bug Reproducible:Sometimes
 
Summary:
In the process of filing rdar://27236415, I managed to catch Xcode do the "hey man, I don't know where your simulators are. Let's hope nothing... untoward... happens to them"  This is the bug report with the evidence.

See attached movie for what I did (quit Xcode7, which actually had been 'relaunched' from the crash reporter dialog, because of rdar://27162192), then running Xcode 8, trying to run my app (no simulators). Then quitting Xcode and rerunning (simulators)

Steps to Reproduce:


Expected Results:


Actual Results:


Version:
Version 8.0 beta 2 (8S162m)
10.11.5 (15F34)


Notes:
It's really not that big a deal - just restart Xcode once your blood pressure returns to normal, but
when it happens day-in, day-out, it's just another heavy-sigh
death-of-a-thousand-cuts that makes using Xcode unpleasant.
