  • 0

I am working on providing PhoneGap functionality in a UIWebView in MonoTouch. I have tested the functionality in Objective C and the static library works correctly there. However, when I try and link the PhoneGap static library into my MonoTouch application I get a long list of undefined symbols.

I have included all the header files for the PhoneGap library and I have also ensured that ‘Compile for thumb’ is unchecked when compiling the PhoneGap library. So I am not sure what I am missing and the error messages don’t mean much to me. I will quote them here (it is a LONG list!), but hopefully someone here can enlighten me to what the linker is trying to tell me!

Here is the long list…

    I found the problem; I was missing several framework entries that were required by the PhoneGap library. Specifically, these framework entries needed to be added to the gcc_flags:

    -framework corelocation 
    -framework mediaplayer
    -framework messageui
    -framework mobilecoreservices
    -framework quartzcore
    -framework systemconfiguration
    -framework audiotoolbox
    -framework avfoundation
    -framework addressbook
    -framework foundation
    -framework coregraphics
    -framework addressbookui
