-fno-objc-arc doesn't work at runtime

Question

I downloaded some open source libraries which don't use ARC. I added the -fno-objc-arc as suggested on SO which made them compile. However, during runtime I still get errors (that causes crash) like ARC forbids explicit use of autorelase . Am I doing something wrong ?

Click on the name of the project on the navigation view in the left side, go to Targets -> Build Phases and add -fno-objc-arc to the "compiler flags" for any relevant files.Simply remove all calls to -release. You're not allowed to call -release under ARC because the compiler will insert all the necessary retain/release calls for you.Please check your file again and clean your project....
