MonoTouch Compiler Directive for iPhone Simulator

Question

Does anyone know a compiler directive that I would use in MonoTouch to find out if I work in an iPhone simulator? Unable to find any information anywhere.

Thanks!

There is no compiler directive (a conditional compilation symbol) to determine if you are working in an iPhone simulator or on a device.

However, you can define it at runtime using this code:

using ObjCRuntime; static bool InSimulator () { return Runtime.Arch == Arch.SIMULATOR; } 

This is from here: http://docs.xamarin.com/ios/recipes/General/Projects/Environment_Checks
