Cannot build for iPhone 4S

[offbywon]

I am trying to compile from XCode on my iPhone, but I am getting a linker error that the library "-lIOKit" cannot be found:

ld: library not found for -lIOKit clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

Does anyone know how to get the library and what to do with it?

It's supposed to be built in. My current conjecture is that it's not present on iOS 7? But I'm not sure.

I'm having the same issue for iPad Air and iPhone 5s on iOS 7. Anyone have a solution?

Found a way to run snes4ios on my ipad air: As libIOKit.dylib is not available anymore I removed it from the project and tried to replace it with the IOKit.framework. To do this in Xcode 5 you have to create a symlink like shown here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/17542092/iokit-not-found

cd /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneOS7.0.sdk/System/Library/Frameworks/IOKit.framework
sudo ln -s Versions/A/IOKit .

After creating the symlink I was able to drag & drop the IOKit.framework from the directory above into my project and to run snes4ios on my ipad. :)

I follow the solution, and I was able to build the solution. But now I can't load the ROM without crash the app

@yurikimo afraid I can't help. My only problem was that it didn't build. I think I've tried one or two ROMs but just for trying and not really playing. Maybe you could provide more information like the crash log?
