jsonImport or JSONToArray

[Matthias Rebbe]

Douglas,

did you try to select the inclusions manually in StandaloneBuilder settings?

I might be wrong, but i think i remember there was a problem with including that library when “searching for inclusions” was selected in the SB settings.

Regards,
Matthias
