  • Description
  • Change Log
For anyone who might be developing with this already, there are some structural changes from RC.3 to RC.4. Check the README.txt file for version history.

Ace is a lightweight and powerful addon development system. It is a new approach to
addon development, a rethinking from the ground up. Ace provides developers with the
tools needed by most addons, freeing them from repeating common tasks and allowing
them to jump right into the creative part of building their addons.

Here is a brief list of its features:

- Initializes the addon after variables and character data load.
- Simple, flexible, and powerful data management.
- Customizable chat command handling.
- Improved function and method hooking.
- Enhanced event handling with the ability to create custom events.
- In-game addon disabling and enabling.
- Easy saving of settings per character and per class.
- Debug features with optional module.
- Built-in myAddons support.

A new development kit is forthcoming in the next few days, until then you can get a slightly outdated version at http://www.wowace.com

Documentation and examples on how to use Ace for development are included in the
development kit. The documentation is admittedly rough right now, but it and the
examples should provide you with a good base to start with.

Brief Command List (detailed in the README.txt file)

/ace - Display available options.

/ace enable | disable <addon> - Same as enabling or disabling the AddOn at the character screen. Requires a game restart or reload.

/ace info - Display addon summary information and current memory usage.

/ace loadmsg addon - Display a load message for every Ace addon that is loaded.
/ace loadmsg none - Don't display any load message at all.
/ace loadmsg sum - Display a summary message after all addons are loaded.

/ace profile char [<addon> | all] - Load a profile specific to the current character. Optionally specify an addon name or "all" to load all your Ace addons into this profile.
