Requirements

OCDiscount requires Xcode 5, targeting either iOS 6.0 and above, or Mac OS 10.8 Mountain Lion (64-bit with modern Cocoa runtime) and above.

The libdiscount.a static library must be linked into the application target for proper compilation. The steps are:

1. In the project editor, select the target to which you want to add the library
2. Click Build Phases at the top of the project editor.
3. Open the Link Binary With Libraries section.
4. Click the Add button (+) to add libdiscount.a library.

Ignore these steps if you are using CocoaPods.

CocoaPods is the recommended way to add OCDiscount to your project.

Here's an example podfile that installs OCDiscount.
