download QTJava.zip
« on: Sep 15th, 2004, 3:28pm »

I've just installed processing-0068 on my Win XP home sp1 box and when running processing.exe get the response:
 
"Could not find QuickTime for Java"
 
According to the release doc bugs.txt
 
"on windows, if you can't install quicktime for java yourself, all you really need is a copy of QTJava.zip from the quicktime install"
 
Well what I've found is that I had to download the Quicktime/ITunes install; don't know that there was a choice. And when installing that d/l it didn't give me any options such as the bugs.txt doc said to use.
 
Further, I searched my own hd's for QTJava and google for a QTJava.zip download URL but have come up empty.
 
Anything I can do here?

quicktime (without itunes) can be downloaded from here:
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/
(the itunes+quicktime bundle didn't exist when that bugs.txt was written)
 
but if you have the itunes & quicktime bundle already installed, go to program files -> quicktime -> quicktime updater. click the 'custom' button and scroll down to click the checkbox next to 'quicktime for java'. click "next" or whatever to go ahead with the install.
 
the thing about getting qtjava.zip is for people who can't install software on their machine (don't have admin privileges) and just want to copy qtjava.zip from another machine. we can't distribute qtjava.zip with processing, so this was suggested as a workaround.
 
all that said, qtjava will no longer be a requirement with the next release of processing.

Thanks Fry. That worked fine. Can you recommend some resources for the newbie - aka me - now that I can get processing running on my machine?

start here: http://processing.org/learning/examples/statements_comments.html
 
and keep pressing the right arrow looking at the examples, you'll soon pick up the syntax.
