Navigate the SDK

When you install the System Platform IDE, the SDK is added at the following default location:

• C:\Program Files (x86)\ArchestrA\Framework\AcfSdk

The SDK contains four subfolders:

• Includes: Contains a logger (Logger.cs). You can add the logger as a reference, which is a shared class, to assist in development and debugging. Use it to log messages, for custom tracing, etc. See Add a Link to the Logger for instructions about adding the logger to troubleshoot your app.
  

  To add the logger:

  1. In the Visual Studio Solution Explorer, select your app.
  2. Right-click and select Add > Existing Item (or press Shift + Alt + A).
  3. Navigate to the AcfSdk\Includes folder.
  4. Select the Logger.cs file.
  5. Click the down arrow () on the Add button.
  6. Click Add As Link.
