Type PApplet not found error, please help
Mar 28th, 2008, 6:25am
 
New user, so I apologize if this is a dumb question, but recently (and as far as I can tell, for no reason) whenever I try to run a program in Processing, a compiling error comes up. This error says "Type 'PApplet' not found", and in the command line it states "Semantic Error: An array initializer cannot be used to initialize a variable of type "??"." Whether I try to run  a program I made previously that used to work, or a blank sketchbook, it doesn't matter. If anyone could help me with this, either posting a solution or why it would happen in the first place, I would be very thankful.

that sounds like something messed up with your java installation (try uninstalling/reinstalling), or something strange in your CLASSPATH variable.
