Anybody compiled mimetic for iOS - ios

Question

I want to create a mime / multipart parser for IMAP messages. I got few links which says mimetic can do this, but I am unable to compile it for iOS. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Answer 1

It's old post. But maybe it will help somebody
How I built mimetic in my project (shell-script).

Please find an updated build script for mimetic C++ library for iOS.
