   The HID object can't be created until the Simulator is booted.

   If you want to access this, use the connectToHID method on FBSimulator instead, this should ensure that all the invariants are met. For the most part, you'll not need to create instances of most helper classes yourself, they are all exposed on FBSimulator.

   @lawrencelomax I used the connectToHID method as suggested. I was able to get the HID object. But I was unable to obtain the reply port.

   The registration port was 14671.
   It failed to connect to the reply port. It produced an error.

   The console log was [Error] Failed to get the Indigo Reply Port 268451843

   func bootSimulator() throws {
       let bootOptions = FBSimulatorBootOptions.enableDirectLaunch
       let bootConfiguration = FBSimulatorBootConfiguration.default.withScale(scale).withOptions(bootOptions)
       if sim?.state != .booted {
           let simBootFuture = sim?.boot(with: bootConfiguration)
           simBootFuture?.onQueue(.main, notifyOfCompletion: { (simBoot) in
               
           })
           do {
               try simBootFuture?.await()
               
           } catch let bootError {
               print("[Error] Failed to boot simulator \(sim!.udid) because \(bootError.localizedDescription)")
               throw bootError
           }
       }
       do {
           let simConFut = sim?.connect()
           simConFut?.onQueue(DispatchQueue.main, notifyOfCompletion: { (simConFuture) in
               
           })
           try simConFut?.await()
           simCon = simConFut?.result
           
           let simHIDFuture = self.simCon?.connectToHID()
           simHIDFuture?.onQueue(.main, notifyOfCompletion: { (simHIDFut) in
               
           })
           try simHIDFuture?.await()
           self.simHID = simHIDFuture?.result
           
           let hidConnectFuture = self.simHID?.connect()
           hidConnectFuture?.onQueue(.main, notifyOfCompletion: { (hidConnectFut) in
   
           })
           try hidConnectFuture?.await()
           _ = hidConnectFuture?.result
           
       } catch let hidConnectError{
           print("[Error] \(hidConnectError.localizedDescription)")
           throw hidConnectError
       }
   }

   Can you make sure that SimulatorKit is loaded by using FBSimulatorControlFrameworkLoader.xcodeFrameworks.loadPrivateFrameworksOrAbort before any of the calls?

   I think your code is taking an old code path that might not work on newer versions of xcode.

   I have tried in different machines. The result seems to be same. Used FBSimulatorControlFrameworkLoader.xcodeFrameworks.loadPrivateFrameworksOrAbort. The path seems to be fine. Still the HID registration port is connected but the reply port is not getting registered
