I've posted it in the past, but it was never sold. I can not change my signature. I can not "Fav" any threads. I do not get notifications. Anything to be done about it (other than signing up anew)?

I'd say there is a 'void' between General Discussion talk & exhibition. A place where you can brag with a beautiful function or excessive for loop you wrote, discuss programming ethics, small concepts, advices on art/design courses and the like. Anything that's not technically a (syntax) question or project related, but Processing relevant nonetheless, be it less direct. I certainly understand most people visit the boards in a (semi) professional context, and programming chit-chat may not be what they are looking for, but I really think it would add to the P5 community.

This is a very good way to exterminate those kinds of behaviors that's irritating for all of us. I also extend that these people (spammers) should evolve in a better and meaningful approach, not just like for their own personal ways. This is their challenge to do great things other than to destroy. <img src="yabbfiles/Templates/Forum/processing_one/shocked.gif" border="0" alt="Shocked" title="Shocked" /> Easier code reuse in Processing num_1214651471.html Processing Discourse/Software, Documentation, Website Suggestions num_1214651471.html processing@tiemenrapati.com (Rapatsk1) Sun, 23 May 2010 05:14:04 +0000 Indeed! Bump! <img src="yabbfiles/Templates/Forum/processing_one/smiley.gif" border="0" alt="Smiley" title="Smiley" /> And upon this suggestion, it would be great if you'd configure Processing to open certain of these librarish pde's in new tabs on any new sketch creation. It'd be great if you wouldn't need to wrap those into classes, because I really disliked how I used my real custom library that wrapped my standard functions: import rapatski.functions.* Functions f; f = new Functions(this); f.dottedLine(0, 0, 300, 300, 2, 1.3); etc. Custom "librarish" tabs num_1274576529.html Processing Discourse/Software, Documentation, Website Suggestions num_1274576529.html processing@tiemenrapati.com (Rapatsk1) Sun, 23 May 2010 05:07:10 +0000 Indeed, not far at all.

There several are bits of code that are not used (which could be very misleading to novice programmers). Also multiple if else statements could be replaced by switch/case block. Here are some of the offending lines. There are also some hacks viz unloading matrix stack, and use of ascii char as int, that are not explained. Code:<pre class="code"> // float somestep = 0.1; // void useRule(String r_) { // rule = r_; // } // // void useAxiom(String a_) { // axiom = a_; // } // // void useLength(float l_) { // startLength = l_; // } // // void useTheta(float t_) { // theta = radians(t_); // } </pre> I would suggest substituting a simpler example, otherwise quite a revision of the original example along the lines of my translation to ruby-processing <a href="http://learning-ruby-processing.blogspot.com/2010/05/penrose-tiling-ruby-processing-lsystems.html" target="_blank">http://learning-ruby-processing.blogspot.com/2010/05/penrose-tiling-ruby-processing-lsystems.html</a>.

This is a bit beyond the scope of the tutorial (it's really meant just for getting started in Eclipse), but the good news is there's an even easier way to do all of this! Proclipsing! http://code.google.com/p/proclipsing/ This is a plug-in for eclipse that sets up your Processing project for you automatically.  And you can select the serial library and it will just work like magic!!

There are some animation libraries, perhaps they can provide what you look for, and more!

I can say that Ben and I won't be implementing it because there are many other features with higher priority. That said, Processing is an open source project and it's possible for someone to add this and then submit the code.

I'm using processing on my corporate computer connected trough an HTTP proxy (which is a SOCKS one too – i guess). I think it'd be really great if processing could allow sockets' connections trough proxies via the network library. As far as i browsed the source code of file client.java, processing use sockets connections. For all of us using web apis, I think encapsulate URL / URI classes in a "ready to use" one would be great too. I've found the following constructor for using sockets behind proxy server : <a href="http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/net/Socket.html#Socket(java.net.Proxy)" target="_blank">http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/net/Socket.html#Socket(java.net.Proxy)</a> And java tutorial: <a href="http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/guides/net/proxies.html" target="_blank">http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/guides/net/proxies.html</a> Note: i'm not a java expert so i can't help much more, but i do hope that suggestion make some sense. Anyway, processing is amazing so many thanks for all the hard job. Installers: Linux (.DEB, .RPM), Windows, Mac & BSD num_1266843929.html Processing Discourse/Software, Documentation, Website Suggestions num_1266843929.html alec.taylor6@gmail.com (Alec Taylor) Sun, 11 Apr 2010 07:45:34 +0000 Good Evening, Recently I noticed that Processing has been updated from version 1.0.9 to 1.1. <center>New Installers</center> <a href="http://www.mediafire.com/ProcessingInstallers" target="_blank">http://www.mediafire.com/ProcessingInstallers</a> Mac OS X (.pkg) Installer - <a href="http://www.mediafire.com/?l2zcmzndjaz" target="_blank">http://www.mediafire.com/?l2zcmzndjaz</a> Windows (.exe) Installer - <a href="http://www.mediafire.com/?nmzhgdxgrry" target="_blank">http://www.mediafire.com/?nmzhgdxgrry</a> Windows (.msi) Installer - <a href="http://www.mediafire.com/?tycfjtnvgiv" target="_blank">http://www.mediafire.com/?tycfjtnvgiv</a> I completely rewrote all of the above Installers from scratch. I now have Processing within a hierarchical structure, and is now completely Portable/Reusable. I can safely say within 17 minutes (1 minute to make minor changes, 16 minutes to compile) of being informed of a new version, I will be able to release 3 Installers (2 for Windows, 1 for Mac). Many changes have been completed with my latest versions, including better use of images, inclusion of StartMenu shortcuts (for Processing & Uninstaller [MSI only includes Processing shortcut, as an Uninstall shortcut would only cause confusion if the IT Dept. are ever enlightened enough to Install Processing ). Many other miscellaneous fixes have also been applied. Also I have done some research into file-associations with Mac, appears some .plist files need to be edited. Would anyone be interested with me adding file-associations for Mac to my repertoire of features Looks like ant has finally been fixed, so if I get the chance I shouldn't have too much trouble creating Linux & BSD versions. Hope you enjoy the new version, Alec Taylor Is there a processing search engine? num_1269788336.html Processing Discourse/Software, Documentation, Website Suggestions num_1269788336.html Sun, 28 Mar 2010 08:00:44 +0000 this is a often discussed problem. to late to change it though. But there are some tricks. You can search for "built with processing" as this should be part of every uploaded processing sketch if not removed. like you said, beside that you can search on sidtes like openprocessing.org. random number generators num_1269700924.html Processing Discourse/Software, Documentation, Website Suggestions num_1269700924.html Sat, 27 Mar 2010 06:42:03 +0000 I'd like to suggest that the developers of Processing consider replacing the Java pseudo-random number generator (PRNG) with the Mersenne Twister PRNG. The latter has better properties. In particular, it has a much longer period, has much better multi-dimensional uniformity, and is guaranteed to produce the same sequence of random numbers on different machines. Dr. Phillip M.
