Organization of source files, regarding Eclipse
Sep 24th, 2005, 9:32pm  
Well, I'm pretty new to the Processing programming thing, but it looks interesting.  However, I'm curious how users of it manage to get it developing under Eclipse?  The source files are both preprocessed -- an odd plan, first -- and kept in a flat directory structure which, for me at least, prevents Eclipse from handling the project correctly.

So, what do you folks do with this?  I can't be the only developer that wants to use Eclipse.

That's not quite what I was looking for -- although I may be misunderstanding.  I'm looking for how to set up Eclipse to work with the processing core code.  I'm interested in looking at bugs, features, et al in the engine itself.

From what I can see there, though, that's geared more at using processing.  Am I wrong?

have you read the build instructions?
http://dev.processing.org/build/
there's also a note re: eclipse in there.

the source files for core are in a subfolder called 'core' inside a directory called 'processing', which should be fine for IDEs expecting the source tree to echo the package setup.

there's no preprocessing, are you looking at some ancient version of the code?

In build/Linux/make.sh:

perl preproc.pl

Which does some search/replace to remove chunks of code and other perl-work.  Or at least seems to -- I'm not a Perl guru, so I'm not totally sure, and it does look input-dependent.

Is there a real need for the preprocessing to occur?

that takes the public functions from PGraphics and adds them to PApplet. unless you're adding to the api(?) it's not necessary, and the code will build on its own just fine.
