serial and code folder causes error!
« on: Mar 10th, 2004, 11:18pm »

hi,
 
i am doing building a project with some serial stuff, and i wanted to use Ariel's controller stuff:
http://www.processing.co.il/toolkit/controller/
 
however, importing that into my project, caused this error to be spewed:
Code:

Error loading win32com: java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no win32com in java.library.path
 
serial port not working

 
...it turns out that this has nothing to do with ariels cotroller class though (no offense ariel, but for a short while i had you under suspicion!)
 
when creating this simple piece of code:
Code:

void setup(){
  beginSerial("COM7", 9600);
}
 
void loop(){
}

 
everything works ... BUT ... if you create an empty /code/ folder in the sketch-folder, you get this error:
 
Code:

Error loading win32com: java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no win32com in java.library.path

 
It seems to me that you can't use serial in combination with external classes (through the use of the code-folder) .... can i implement Ariels controller classes in any other way? (unzipping them and sticking them somewhere else?)
 
+ mikkel

yup, this is the same problem as that quicktime code folder bug. copy the win32com.dll from the top-level folder of processing, also the comm.jar and javax.comm.properties from the lib folder all into your code folder, and see how that goes.
