This document describes how to build the Origo Dashboard Widget.

Introduction
------------

The Origo widget (like any other Dashboard Widget) uses javascript as programming language and some Apple specific extensions (and of course some CSS & html).
For the xml-rpc calls the open-source library 'jsolait' is used.
The outcome of the build process is a package with the extension "wdgt". Simply double click on this file to install the widget.

Build with Dashcode
-------------------

Dashcode is a free IDE from Apple for developing Widgets. It is shipped on the OS X installation CDs and can be downloaded from Apple. 
To build the widget:
1. Open the widget project (OrigoWidget.wdgtproj) in Dashcode
2. File >> Deploy Widget will create the package

Build manually
--------------

The manual build process is described on http://developer.apple.com/documentation/AppleApplications/Conceptual/Dashboard_Tutorial/Widget_Basics/chapter_3_section_7.html
(Basically you assemble all your files in a <widget_name>.wdgt directory and it will be recognized by OS X as a package - there is no special processing required)
