## Xojo

### Requirements

[Xojo](https://www.xojo.com/) is a rapid application development for Desktop, Web, Mobile & Raspberry Pi.  

The Desktop application Xojo example project ```NSSharingService.xojo_project``` is using:

- Xojo 2024r4.2

- API 2

### How to use in your own Xojo project?

1. copy the Module ```modNSSharingService``` to your project.

2. you can then use the provided convenience methods:

   1. ```modNSSharingService.SendViaAirDrop()```

   2. ```modNSSharingService.ComposeMessage()```

   3. ```modNSSharingService.ComposeEmail()```

Note:  

- These methods return ```true``` if the sharing service can be invoked, ```false``` if the service is not available.

- The Sharing Service will run asynchrously *(e.g. when not called to show modally within a window)*. That's why you can pass a ```ResultCallbackDelegate```, which will be invoked and reported back with the result later (e.g.: successfully shared, cancelled by user, ...).
