Hello guys,  
I cannot simulate my rtc Project. This is the failure:

Generating C++ code for simulation… Building…

/ws/sketchbook/fef452e849c5921b22a43f901f232a1181d064935e73cc68aba662b0888ccdb1/sketch/sketch.ino:963:10: fatal error: ‘Wire.h’ file not found #include \<Wire.h\>

Library xod-dev/ds-rtc is installed.

Why xod cannot find wire.h and how can I get it?  
Has anybody an advice?

The quick fix should be to just code the xod code to the ide, compile and upload

Check you have the correct board / microcontroller listed… Uno genuino etc…

OK found all the arduino libraries, incl wire.h.  
But how to implement in xod?

Sorry I’m an absolute noob in xod by now.
