ess sound file loading outside of processing IDE
Jan 30th, 2006, 7:01pm  
I'm trying to load sound files writing something in eclipse and ess never seems to be able to find my sound files (works fine in the processing IDE tho)

anybody else have this problem?

or krister are you adding something to the path i'm giving to Channel? using something akin to dataPath()?

My experience in messing around with this is that when you pass a relative file path into AudioChannel, Ess looks for it in your sketch's data directory (which means it must be bundled into the jar (or .app or .exe) when exported.

However if you pass in an absolute path -- ie, something starting with "/" (or "C:/" on Windows) -- Ess will look for that in your file system ... and you won't need to export the file with your sketch.

good luck.
