setup() and draw() not being called in eclipse

in Android Processing • 4 months ago

Hi,

I am looking to create an android application in eclipse using the processing library.

I want to use the wywiwyg editor for creating a menu while using processing's draw() function to display graphics based on user input.

my problem is that if I use ...

public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {

.. to create the menu, draw() and setup seem to be ignored.

Is it possible to achieve what I am trying?

Are you using the eclipse plugin?

No, I am just simply using the android-core.jar library within Eclipse?

Do I need a plugin?

Cheers

Thanks for posting the link. I thought about doing so, but I know it's got some problems. I have installed it and used it, but the sketches don't seem to run properly in Eclipse (though they run great if I load them into the PDE). I've thought about digging in to find out what's wrong with the plug-in, but haven't gotten very far. It's possible that the plug-in needs some work, and the GitHub repo hasn't seen any activity in a long time.

Also, there is another approach documented in the wiki and on Processing.org. I was hoping there was someone else on the forum that had more experience with Processing in Eclipse.

This is a better link... much easier, and up to date.

Note that there is a SuperClass not found error with API 17 and Revision 22, so maybe stick to API 16 for now when you setup your project.
