so this is broken for the pc as well? that might actually make it a little easier to fix. although it's probably broken for totally different reasons.
what are the symptoms with the pc version? and are you using standard or expert? i have a feel that with the pc version, the problem is with the javax.comm.properties file.
i need to find myself a serial device and get this thing debugged. or maybe i need to buy amit a $10 ticket for the chinatown bus and spend an afternoon debugging this thing up in boston.

i'm using standard, but i just tried it in expert using the same setup and produced the same results:
Having a "code" folder (with win32com.dll, comm.jar, and javax.comm.properties copied into it) returns no errors but it seems that serialEvent() never gets called.
For testing purposes i removed everything but a println() statement from serialEvent() in the analog_input example.
* Without a code folder, i get the correct output in stdout.txt
* with an empty code folder i get the following error:
Error loading win32com: java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no win32com in java.library.path
* when i copy the files listed above into the code folder, i get no error, but also nothing in stdout.txt
side note: i have noticed that having a code folder occasionaly causes Processing to hang when i try to run the sketch. No display window appears untill i press the stop button. But 75% of the time the display window pops up just fine. I have no idea if this is related or not.
Hope this info helps,
-kevin

kAshton, what's your PATH environment variable set to?
(if you don't know what i'm talking about.. open up a command prompt, type "echo %PATH%" and paste the result here)

How's this for ya, with a code folder present on v67 or v68 I don't get an output window at all, I have to hit the stop button to see it. I can really only trace this problem back to after I installed the latest sound card drivers(audigy) and video card drivers. I'm on XP.
edit: now it works at seemingly random times. I will reinstall JSyn or JVRE or restart and it works once then does the same thing. Then like 15 minutes later it works again.

are you using a virus scanner (norton in particular) that's set to scan files on-access?

yeah, looks like the side note i mentioned was caused by Nortan Anti-Virus, all that is needed is reconfiguring the Auto-Protect so that it doesn't scan files when run or opened.
Happy to find that out, but will be much happier if serial and a code folder can work together, let me know if there is anything else i can do to help... is there perhaps some alternate way to load the external libraries into Processing? --a temporary workaround? My apologies if i'm getting a bit pestery, i've got a show in two weeks that i'd like to have sound working for, so that's where my stress is coming from, I don't mean to pass my stress on to you guys though.
keep up the good work,
-kevin

I'm not finding that option in norton av 2004. there is the option to disable auto-protect but that's it. and even disabling auto-protect doesn't stop this problem.

huh, i dunno, i've got the ancient 2002 model
My Auto-Protect options menu has a section called "Scan files when they are" with individual check boxes next to "Run or opened" and "Created or downloaded" If i uncheck the "Run or opened" box, it seems to fix the display window problem.
Hope you can find something similar in NAV 2004

there's also mcafee/network associates virusscan, which doesn't have the same problem (which is what i use, and why i didn't know about the bug sooner)
oh, and does the problem still exist in nav 2004? i heard one report that it was fixed..
you might also just be able to exempt particular applications from scanning, but who knows.
