Installation

1. Copy to your openFrameworks/addons folder or use git clone

2. copy following lines into the Run Script under Build Phases in Xcode. It will copy the files needed at the right place and redirect a path.
   # Copy libraries for the RayComposer USB dongle.
rsync -aved ../../../addons/ofxRayComposer/api-lib/osx_x86_64/librcdev.dylib "$TARGET_BUILD_DIR/$PRODUCT_NAME.app/Contents/Frameworks/"; rsync -aved ../../../addons/ofxRayComposer/api-lib/osx_x86_64/librcdev.1.dylib "$TARGET_BUILD_DIR/$PRODUCT_NAME.app/Contents/Frameworks/"; rsync -aved ../../../addons/ofxRayComposer/api-lib/osx_x86_64/librcdev.1.6.dylib "$TARGET_BUILD_DIR/$PRODUCT_NAME.app/Contents/Frameworks/"; rsync -aved ../../../addons/ofxRayComposer/api-lib/osx_x86_64/librcdev.1.6.0.dylib "$TARGET_BUILD_DIR/$PRODUCT_NAME.app/Contents/Frameworks/"; rsync -aved ../../../addons/ofxRayComposer/api-lib/osx_x86_64/libusb-1.0.0.dylib "$TARGET_BUILD_DIR/$PRODUCT_NAME.app/Contents/MacOS/lib/"; # redirect install_name_tool -change @executable_path/lib/librcdev.1.dylib @executable_path/../Frameworks/librcdev.1.dylib "$TARGET_BUILD_DIR/$PRODUCT_NAME.app/Contents/MacOS/$PRODUCT_NAME";
