cinterop process finished with non-zero exit value 1 - kotlin

Question

I am experimenting with kotlin multiplatform in this chess app. I have c++ code for the chess engines in the app. For each engine, I want to create a kmm module. Since kotlin native does not yet interop with c++, I have to create wrappers around the c++ code. In each androidMain, I have the JNI class that interface with c++, and this works. ios is where I am not clear. I believe I have to create an obj-c++ wrapper (.mm file) around the c++ code, then do cinterop for the wrapper.
iosTarget("ios") {
compilations.getByName("main") {
val jwtc by cinterops.creating {
defFile(project.file("src/iosMain/cpp/jwtc.def"))
packageName("com.cinterop.jwtc")
}
}
}
Is this right? When I try to build it, gradle sync fails with this error:
Execution failed for task ':jwtc:cinteropJwtcIos'.

I have cleaned and restarted android studio severally, and also tried java 8 instead of 11.
I would also appreciate links to more info about the def file. There is not much about it in the kotlin docs.
My jwtc.def:
headers = GameWrapper.h
headerFilter = GameWrapper.h
GameWrapper.h:
#interface GameWrapper
- (void) getBestMove;
#end
GameWrapper.mm:
#include "GameWrapper.h"
#include "Game.h"
#implementation GameWrapper
- (void) getBestMove {
Game game;
game.getBestMove();
}
#end

I finally found that the real error message:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.Error: /var/folders/17/14lmpq652zn5h_cy_h51z7yr0000gr/T/8492320185156128475.c:1:10: fatal error: 'GameWrapper.h' file not found
and fixed it by adding compilerOpts to point to the location of my src files:
iosTarget("ios") {
compilations.getByName("main") {
val jwtc by cinterops.creating {
defFile(project.file("src/iosMain/cpp/jwtc.def"))
packageName("com.cinterop.jwtc")
compilerOpts ("-Isrc/iosMain/cpp/")
}
}
}
