Export has issues : exported .java file cannot access the 'processing' package.

in Integration and Hardware • 2 years ago

When exporting my file, everything is created alright, but when I try to execute the java file, it runs but never opens. (I know it runs because when I try to delete the file, Windows says that Java is using it, even though the java applet runner never appears in the task manager)

When I opened the java source code for the exported applet in JCreator and built it, i got these error codes (followed by >100 more based off of them):

\Documents\Java Files\Processing\Snake\Snake_v_Gamma\applet\Snake_v_Gamma.java:1: error: package processing.core does not exist

import processing.core.*;

^

\Documents\Java Files\Processing\Snake\Snake_v_Gamma\applet\Snake_v_Gamma.java:2: error: package processing.xml does not exist

import processing.xml.*;

^

Again, after these come over 100 more errors derived from "cannot find command ..."

Can anyone help me out here? Basically, I need...

To find a way for an exported applet to be able to access the 'processing' package, and.
Make my file all-inclusive within one folder, so that even computers with out processing can run this.

To know where, inside the Processing program folder, the files of the 'processing' package are.

Thank you very much, in advance.

I don't know JCreator, but usually you have a way to specify which libraries to add to your build / run path.
The file to add is core.jar, in the Processing distribution. Some other .jar files are needed as well.

Now, I don't understand the start of your message. Once you exported a sketch, the .java file is here merely for documentation, you cannot run it directly, it is only a text file. You run the .jar files. The .java ones must be compiled.

And I am not sure if you do an export for applets or for running as application.

After I restarted my computer, the .jar runs fine (it wouldn't load before, which was my main problem).

Anyways, it's solved now, so thanks
