REX2 can be obtained from Propellerheads Free of Charge, you just have to register as a developer at their site. Maybe there is some approval process but definitely no costs.
;) It would be pretty weird if they make a exception for IOS. perhaps they keep it all for themselves as that Korg Gadget was also made by them I think. Anyways its pretty easy to add your own slices and the Slice Detection of Drambo does a decent job on Drum Loops...
The REX API provides the necessary functions for using REX2 files in your application. It is distributed as a Dynamic Link Library (DLL) which must be installed on the system together with your REX-capable software. DLLs are a technique which is highly platform-dependent, which means that there is a different DLL file for each supported platform. Currently we support 32- and 64-bit MacOS and Windows platforms. By licensing the REX SDK, you have been granted the right to distribute and install the DLL files together with your application.
...
So you neither get the essential source code nor a binary object file for iOS, no chance to compile that on iOS.
@topaz I bet they had the Propellerheads develop it for them, so they were able to bury the code inside the plugin itself.
Maybe somebody should request it, I believe it would only be little effort for them to provide such a lib.
They do have iOS knowledge and I remember a talk of one of their devs who said that their software architecture allows for porting their software to a wide choice of platforms with little effort.

Is a REX player library publicly available for iOS? I know it's in Gadget's Stockholm but...
As for the Apple Loop slice markers, you can code one yourself by:

I just want to make Muzik ;-)
Are you really sure they're providing it for iOS?
Don't know I just have been reading this:

How did korg manage it ?
