To use a component in a project, follow these steps :

Check out the component repository
- Open a terminal
- Switch current directory to Classes folder under your sub-project
- If there exists any Components directory, it means, you've currently imported the repository and you can skip to next step
- Edit the external items list using
```
svn propedit svn:externals .
```
- Add the following line to the list
```
Components   https://svn2.xp-dev.com/svn/tov_components/trunk/Source
```
- Save the list and exit
- Update your code repository to check out the new external item to your project
```
svn update
```
Open your xcodeproj file using XCode and create a new Group called Components if it doesn't exists
Right-click on Components group and select Add => Existing Files
Navigate to Components folder under Classes directory and select individual components you want to import

Please don't import the whole Components directory into the xcode project and follow those steps stated above to select individual components you need.
