Does Processing support the Google Translate API in Java? I didn't get it to work, but was wondering whether I missed something, cause I am quite new to programming.

Thanks

Processing should support all Java libraries.
Perhaps show what you tried.

I just copied it from the code.google.com website, imported the oogle-api-translate-java.jar file and tried to run it. It says "Cannot parse error text: File /tmp/build55883.tmp/Main.java is missing. The code is below.
Thanks



import com.google.api.translate.Language;
import com.google.api.translate.Translate;

public class Main {
 public static void main(String[] args) {
   try {
     String translatedText = Translate.translate("Bonjour le monde", Language.FRENCH, Language.ENGLISH);
     System.out.println(translatedText);
   } catch (Exception ex) {
     ex.printStackTrace();
   }
 }
}

You have to adapt to Processing syntax/way of doing stuff.
For example:
Code:
import com.google.api.translate.Language;
import com.google.api.translate.Translate;

   try {
     String translatedText = Translate.translate("Bonjour le monde", Language.FRENCH, Language.ENGLISH);
     println(translatedText);
   } catch (Exception ex) {
     ex.printStackTrace();
   }

is enough.

yes it does. You just have to download the library from here http://code.google.com/p/google-api-translate-java/ and import to your sketch. Instead of the java code that is given on that website the code by PhiLho works. I haven't really worked on expanding the code and integrating it into my program yet, but I think there are more extensive java examples on the net.
