Cannot compile libraries for Processing
May 9th, 2009, 9:06am
 
I have tried to perform the Eclipse template tutorial and it doesn't work. It insists I don't possess javadoc.exe, and yet the files are there on my machine.

I tried simply exporting a .jar file on its own and although Processing can see it inside the code folder, it refuses to see it in the libraries folder in the sketchbook. I'm using 1.0.1 expert on Windows XP.

Got it. Folder structure issue.

has to be

project_name/library/my_library.jar

for others who want to know just how to export some .java files, I followed these steps:

Open a new Java Project in eclipse.

Right (ctrl) click on the src folder in the package explorer.

Select new > package

name it and click on Finish

Right click on the package and choose Import

Select File System and go get your .java files.

Then follow the steps here:

I still would like to know what's up with this javadoc issue because my libraries are going to be somewhat short of the whistles and bells that come with the other libraries.

had the same error, javadoc.exe not found.

fix : http://dev.eclipse.org/newslists/news.eclipse.tools.jdt/msg10651.html

the ant build still throws errors, but the build does build.
