Save/load bytes and strings Mar 14th, 2010, 11:49pm   hi could anyone help me with that problem. I now tried to use save/load for many hours but didn't understand it. First I saved it in the sketch folder and then I tried to use it, but Quote: The file "highscore.dat" is missing or inaccessible, make sure the URL is valid or that the file has been added to your sketch and is readable. is always coming. Code: byte hsB[]= /*new byte[4];*/loadBytes("highscore.dat"); void setup(){ background(0); size(700,500); frameRate(1); println(hsB); /*for(int j=0; j<4; j++){ hsB[j]= byte(500-(j*100)); } saveBytes("highscore.dat", hsB);*/ }

Simple solution (hard to find...): saveBytes(dataPath("highscore.dat"), hsB); Not sure if it works with exported file. Alternative: byte hsB[]= loadBytes(sketchPath("highscore.dat"));
