importing processing library
Feb 1st, 2008, 5:06pm  
I see this on the FAQ page " ... core.jar file from the Processing distribution to develop your own sketches with other environments ..."

I can also see from examples created with Processing..
Code:

import processing.core.*;
.
.
class Sketch extends PApplet {
.
.
.
}


My aim is to use processing.core.* and processing.opengl.* outside of the Processing environment.

I'm using a mac and have found Processing's core.jar and opengl folder.

Must these be dropped into the Library/Java/Extensions directory or is there an alternative (for people without admin rights)?

Thanks in advance,

I have extracted core.jar files to desktop/processing/core/ and then created the following desktop/Sketch.java

Code:

import processing.core.*; import java.applet.*; import java.awt.*; import java.awt.image.*; import java.awt.event.*; import java.io.*; import java.net.*; import java.text.*; import java.util.*; import java.util.zip.*;

class Sketch extends PApplet  {

public void setup(){
size(500,500);
}

public void draw(){
background(0);
}

public static void main(String[] args){
PApplet.main(new String[]{"Sketch"});
}

}


Runtime error
java.lang.IllegalAccessException: Class processing.core.PApplet can not access a member of class Sketch with modifiers "public"
       at sun.reflect.Reflection.ensureMemberAccess(Reflection.java:65)
       at java.lang.Class.newInstance0(Class.java:344)
       at java.lang.Class.newInstance(Class.java:303)
       at processing.core.PApplet.main(PApplet.java:6943)
       at Sketch.main(Sketch.java:18 )

Could someone please help me to get started?

What did you do about the "Class processing.core.PApplet can not access a member of class Sketch" error?
