Is Processing broken on OSX?

I'm running Processing 1.0.9 on OSX 10.5.8 and am not able to get this simple example to run.

Code:
import processing.net.*;

Client c;
String data;

void setup ()
{
  size (200, 300);
  c = new Client (this, "processing.org", 80);
  c.write ("GET / HTTP/1.0\n");
}

void draw ()
{
  if (c.available() > 0)
  {
    data += c.readString ();
    println (data);
  }
}


Quote:
The package "processing.net" does not exist. You might be missing a library.


also...

Quote:
Note that release 1.0, libraries must be installed in a folder named 'libraries' inside the 'sketchbook' folder.


Following that last bit, I added ./libraries/net/ to my sketch folder. Problem remains.

Thanks in advance

Following up on this: same code runs without errors on a fresh install of processing on Windows XP.

So it's a "processing on OSX" problem.

Hoping someone can offer valuable -- i.e., other than "dump your mac" or "dump processing" -- advice, cuz I'm fresh out. Sad

The thread can't load libraries after upgrading to 1.0.7 !, just below your own, looks related...

Indeed it seems. Thanks for that.

I went to dev.processing.org to file a bug report and, after entering that code (that which I entered in my first post), found that it no longer failed.

<sigh>
