hello, im new to processing and programmming at all and have a question about receiving oss-messages in processing.
what i want to do is very simple. i want to set the x and y postition of an object to the values of an osc-message. the osc-message is sent by GlovePIE (Programmable Input Emulator)and transports the x and y values from a Nintendo Wiimote to processing.

in processing i receive these two values with the oscEvent function. what i cant figure out is how to assign these values to an object in the draw() function. i can only relate to this variables within the oscEvent function. but when i draw a rectangle within the oscEvent function it is blinking or it doesnt show up at all. by setting a delay in the draw() function the blinking stopped, but im sure that this isnt the right way to go.

does somebody have a clue how to solve my problem? i would be thankful

greets jason

heres my code so far:

/**
* osc - object control
*/

import oscP5.*;
import netP5.*;

OscP5 oscP5;
NetAddress myRemoteLocation;

void setup() {
 size(800,800);
 frameRate(50);
 /* start oscP5, listening for incoming messages at port 3000 */
 oscP5 = new OscP5(this,3000);
 myRemoteLocation = new NetAddress("127.0.0.1",3000);
 
}

void draw() {
 background(222);
 delay(150);
}

void oscEvent(OscMessage theOscMessage) {

int wii1x = theOscMessage.get(0).intValue();
int wii1y = theOscMessage.get(1).intValue();
RECHTECK r1 = new RECHTECK(wii1x,wii1y);
r1.rechteck();

println("IR LED 01 - X : "+ theOscMessage.get(0).intValue() +" IR LED 01 - Y :  " + theOscMessage.get(1).intValue() );
}

class RECHTECK {
 int xpos, ypos;
 RECHTECK (int x, int y) {  
   xpos = x;
   ypos = y;
 }
 void rechteck() {
  rect(xpos,ypos,100,100);
  strokeWeight(7);
  fill(255,255,255,80);

 }
}

hi, thanks a lot, it works much better now.
now i can start doing crazy stuff with my wiimote and processing.

greets jason
