- Enum Constant Detail
  - IPA_ABSOLUTE_PATH
```
public static final IOSServerFlag IPA_ABSOLUTE_PATH
```
    absolute path to compiled .ipa file. Sample: --ipa /abs/path/to/my.ipa
  - BACK_END_RETRIES
```
public static final IOSServerFlag BACK_END_RETRIES
```
    How many times to retry launching Instruments before saying it crashed or timed out. Sample: --backend-retries 3
  - SAFARI
```
public static final IOSServerFlag SAFARI
```
    Use the safari app. Default: false
  - DEFAULT_DEVICE
```
public static final IOSServerFlag DEFAULT_DEVICE
```
    use the default simulator that instruments launches on its own. Default: false
  - FORCE_IPHONE_SIMULATOR
```
public static final IOSServerFlag FORCE_IPHONE_SIMULATOR
```
    Use the iPhone Simulator no matter what the app wants. Default: false
  - FORCE_IPAD_SIMULATOR
```
public static final IOSServerFlag FORCE_IPAD_SIMULATOR
```
    Use the iPad Simulator no matter what the app wants. Default: false
  - TRACE_TEMPLATE_FILE_PATH
```
public static final IOSServerFlag TRACE_TEMPLATE_FILE_PATH
```
    .tracetemplate file to use with Instruments. Sample: --tracetemplate /Users/me/Automation.tracetemplate
  - CUSTOM_INSTRUMENTS_PATH
```
public static final IOSServerFlag CUSTOM_INSTRUMENTS_PATH
```
    custom path to the instruments commandline tool. Sample: --instruments /path/to/instruments
  - ISOLATE_SIM_DEVICE
```
public static final IOSServerFlag ISOLATE_SIM_DEVICE
```
    Xcode 6 has a bug on some platforms where a certain simulator can only be launched without error if all other simulator devices are first deleted. This option causes Appium to delete all devices other than the one being used by Appium. Note that this is a permanent deletion, and you are responsible for using simctl or xcode to manage the categories of devices used with Appium. Default: false
  - TRACE_DIRECTORY_ABSOLUTE_PATH
```
public static final IOSServerFlag TRACE_DIRECTORY_ABSOLUTE_PATH
```
    Absolute path to directory Appium use to save ios instruments traces, defaults to /appium-instruments. Default: null
  - WEBKIT_DEBUG_PROXY_PORT
```
public static final IOSServerFlag WEBKIT_DEBUG_PROXY_PORT
```
    Local port used for communication with ios-webkit-debug-proxy. Default value: 27753 Sample: --webkit-debug-proxy-port 27753
- Method Detail
  - values
```
public static IOSServerFlag[] values()
```
    Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:
    for (IOSServerFlag c : IOSServerFlag.values()) System.out.println(c);
    Returns:
    
    an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared
  - valueOf
```
public static IOSServerFlag valueOf(java.lang.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:
    
    java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name
    
    java.lang.NullPointerException - if the argument is null
  - getArgument
```
public java.lang.String getArgument()
```
    Specified by:
    
    getArgument in interface ServerArgument
