GoogleMobileAds iOS 9 link error

I followed the steps from this, since I had problems installing cocoapods, I manually downloaded the SDK zip, added it to the project, it compiled fine but I got a lot of link errors as the following. thanks for any help.

回答1:

I figured it out. added some frameworks to the project and it worked, but it is mentioned nowhere in the guide. Refer screenshot.

回答2:

The GoogleMobileAds SDK (aka AdMob SDK) has many dependencies and they are being added (and sometimes removed) in successive releases. For instance, JavaScriptCore framework is a new dependency starting with version 7.13.0 released on 2016-10-17. If you run into this issue again check for updates to the framework dependencies in the release notes log.

security.Framework also must be added...
