first startup, compiler errors

in Android Processing • 3 years ago

hi there,

i am trying to run a simple program with android processing on the emulator. but unfortunatly i can't compile the code correctly. it throws a lot of errors... here are the output of the first lines:

Android SDK Tools Revision 6
Project Target: Google APIs
Vendor: Google Inc.
Platform Version: 2.1-update1
API level: 7
Importing rules file: C:\devel_src\android-sdk-windows\platforms\android-2.1\ant\ant_rules_r2.xml
BUILD FAILED
C:\devel_src\android-sdk-windows\platforms\android-2.1\ant\ant_rules_r2.xml:255: Error running javac.exe compiler
Total time: 0 seconds
C:\devel_src\android-sdk-windows\platforms\android-2.1\ant\ant_rules_r2.xml:255: Error running javac.exe compiler

at org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.compilers.JavacExternal.execute(JavacExternal.java:61)
at

it says that it can't run javac.exe. i added the enviroment variables that the path variable contains the jdk path and i also added the java_home variable. so in conclusion i can run javac.exe from cmd but i still get the error above.

i am using windows7 64bit and downloaded the latest version from the processing android website.

any ideas?

thanks in advanced

first goal arrived... i have successfully compiled processingcode over the eclipse ide. so i think there are some issues in the android processing ide.
adam.ts if you want to use eclipse too just checkout the code from svn and add them to an new android project. its not the fastest way for testing but i think the ide is a lot better for serious programming.
after setting up the environment just delete the setContentView from your activity and change the extends to papplet.
afterwards add the two public functions setup and draw.
hope this helps you too.

I'd start by trying to replace the version of Java included with Processing to the 64-bit version. And if that doesn't work, try the other way around — that you might need to use a 32-bit Java installation for the Android tools to work properly, if you're using the version of Processing that doesn't include Java.

Same problem - Just downloading version without java, I'll post up here to see if that fixes it, im also running win 7 64X

UPDATE:

All working fine! Got the with out java 0192 and installed 32X bit JDK which has everything working lovely - Happy coding!
