Included Dependencies #
XDSAceEditor is HTML/JavaScript based, and requires a build-script to be added to any project utilizing the control.
Under Build Settings, you will need to right-click the desired platform and choose:
Add to “Build Settings” > Build Step > Copy Files. Drop or add the “ACE” directory into the file pane that opens and set the destination to “Resources Folder” in the Xojo property settings. If you have done this correctly, XDSAceEditor is ready for use and to build into your final application.
