Launch GUI app on iOS 5 through the command line (jailbreak)

问题

I believe you used to be able to launch GUI apps on jailbroken iOS devices via the command line (over SSH) by executing a command like this:

launch com.apple.Calculator

but that is not working on my iOS 5 device (launch not found).

I also tried:

launchctl start com.apple.Calculator

but that also gives me an error (no such process).

回答1:

Those launch/launchctl commands didn't work for me either. What did work was to install the command-line utilty open from Cydia and just execute

open com.apple.calculator

Notice the lowercase c in calculator, that was the bundle identifier for my calculator app.

Here's the developer's website for Cydia stuff:

This links to the repo site:

Update: For iOS 6.x, this current version of open doesn't seem to work. See @Nate's answer to another question linked below in the comments.

Update 2: The open package in Cydia has been updated and now works with iOS 6.

Update 3: Here is the source for the package: https://github.com/conradev/Open. If you look at the open.m file, you can see that the function SBSLaunchApplicationWithIdentifier from the SpringBoardServices private framework is what actually opens the app.
