    Description

      When trying to access global variable instantiated in main.cpp and declared as extern the linker will give symbol(s) not found error. Also global functions implemented in main.cpp are causing the same issue.

      The issue reproduces only on iOS. On other platforms the same example application is linking ok. Also if the global variable is defined somewhere else than main.cpp it will work fine.
