send messages to TouchOSC using oscP5
May 4th, 2010, 7:49am  
Hello all! New to forum (and processing)
I'm using TouchOSC on my iphone to control an interface I made with Processing (using oscP5), have no problems to receive, identify and parse messages sent from my iphone. What I want to know if it's possible to do the other way round: send messages from Processing to TouchOSC (what I'm thinking is send a text from my app, and update a text field in my TouchOSC layout, with things like "done", "error", etc).
I know that with oscP5 I can send a message, but I can't find what format I must use to have TouchOSC recognize it and act accordingly.
Thanks for any help!

Ok, figured out myself.
The trick here is to know the IP of your iPhone, so in Processing you declare a new NetAddress object using that IP and the iPhone's listening port. Then you create a OscMessage with the name of the label/led given by the touchOSC layout editor (e.g:/1/label1), later you add parameters, like text (or 0-1 if you're trying to use a led), and use the "send" method.
Pretty cool and straightforward uh?
