A vector defines a 'direction', which essentially is not determined in its location in space.
To define an 'edge' you need a start point - let's call it 'point1'...
Then set your vector's length using:
vector.length=length
and find 'point2' for the end point:
point2=point1.offset(vector)
Now you have two points representing the start/end-points of a potential new edge.
Use
Sketchup.active_model.active_entities.add_line(point1, point2)
or
Sketchup.active_model.active_entities.add_edges([point1, point2])

Don't confuse edge & line - confusing the API does when adding one edge it calls it a 'line'!
Actually a 'line' is a special geometrical construct of [point, vector], which us infinitely long passing through the point, along the vector. Lines can intersect etc...

Thanks guys thats what I needed.

Hi Jake,
I assume this is for a standalone application and not an exporter plugin into SketchUp.
slapi.framework uses @rpath in its in "Installation Directory" path. So you'll need to set the "Runpath Search Paths" project setting in Xcode to the path of slapi.framework relative to your executable file location. So typically it would be something like:
@loader_path/../Frameworks
Assuming your app is a bundle and you placed slapi.framework under "Frameworks" directory in your bundle. I hope that helps.

Thank you! that worked perfectly everything is running smoothly now.
