Hi, I am using Ruby-Processing. I can use 'puts' in my code but when  I use 'print' I get the following error:

---------------------------------------------
Exception in thread "Animation Thread" exercise38.rb:36:in `draw': for method pr
int expected [#<Java::JavaClass:0x1248f2b>]; got: [java.lang.String]; error: arg
ument type mismatch (TypeError)
       from :1
       ...internal jruby stack elided...
       from Exercise38.draw(:1)
       from (unknown).(unknown)(:1)
---------------------------------------------

I am using Windows. Any ideas?

Hi, Here is the section of code, simplified, which shows the problem.

---------------------------
def mousePressed
     #puts "hello"
     print "hello"
 end
--------------------------- gives me

C:\Documents and Settings\Imran>rp5 run exercise38.rb
Exception in thread "Animation Thread" exercise38.rb:44:in `mousePressed': for m
ethod print expected [#<Java::JavaClass:0x1455d1c>]; got: [java.lang.String]; er

I should also say the Ruby & RP is installed on a partition, D:

ruby-processing (1.0.8)

ruby 1.8.6 (2008-08-11 patchlevel 287) [i386-mswin32]
-e:1: undefined local variable or method `rsion' for main:Object (NameError)

java version "1.5.0"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0-b64)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0-b64, mixed mode, sharing)

Thanks.
