Hi everyone,

I've started to create a basic library, however I'm having a few problems and I was just hoping I could get a few answers here (I've tried searching the forums but couldnt find anything too relevant). Ive tried looking at existing user-submitted libraries, but I was unable to find any source code for them.

Firstly, I'm using eclipse 3.1.1, blackdown java jre 1.4.2-02, linux and processing 095. Im basically looking for a little more indepth how-to for making a basic library that does something (even if just a printout when the object is made).

I have a eclipse project:
Code:

workspace/myproject/library/main.java (Main method to init library)
workspace/myproject/library/mylibrary.java (My library)
workspace/myproject/library/lib/core.jar (putting it here for my own convienience mainly)
 

My library file is an exact replica of the example in how.txt (ie. public BoringLibrary). It imports processing.core.*;

So that's where I am currently, but I have no idea where to go from here. In my main class ive tried making a new object of "BoringLibrary" but Im not sure what should be in the constructor, since its param is of type PApplet. Can anyone give me a little help of how i can make an application from this library that I can run through eclipse? Sorry if my questions are very noobish, but hopefully once i get past these formalities i can get down and dirty with a functional library

Thanks in advance.

Ah i have been looking at these but have found them a little overly complex for beginning a library. I'll try look into them in more detail then.
