hello,

I try to build a screensaver so i wrote a sketch which works well in Processing.exported application
i export it and remane ".exe" file ".scr"
I put it in windows directory
Then i opened up the screensaver-picker dialog, and selected my screensaver (which just magicly appeared in the list)..

in preview-mode in the screensaver-picker dialog, it works just perfect..but :
when the time runs out, and the screensaver is supposed to turn on, the mouse hour-glass-animation just keeps flickering !!

soi tried to make a very simple sketch to test this trouble

1. void setup() {
     size(300,300);
   }
   

exactly the same problem !!

may be cause by parameters send by windows..
so i wrote a new code:

1. PFont font;
   static Hashtable params=new Hashtable();
   
    
   // here we overwrite PApplet's main entry point (for application mode)
   // we're parsing all commandline arguments and copy only the relevant ones
    
   static public void main(String args[]) {
   
     for (int numArg=0;numArg<args.length;numArg++) params.put("p"+numArg,args[numArg]);
    
     // pass on to PApplet entry point
     String[] newArgs=new String[1];
     /*********************************************************
     /* IMPORTANT: replace this with the name of your sketch  *
     /*********************************************************/ 
     newArgs[0]="test1";
     PApplet.main(newArgs);
   }
   
   
   void setup() {
     String[] parametre=new String[params.size()];
     for(int numParam=0;numParam<params.size();numParam++) {
       parametre[numParam]= ((String)params.get("p"+numParam));
       if(parametre[numParam]==null)parametre[numParam]="";
     }   
   
     size(300,300);
     font=loadFont("ArialMT-48.vlw");
     textFont(font);
     for(int numParam=0;numParam<parametre.length;numParam++)
       text(parametre[numParam],0,50*numParam+50);
   
      
   }
   
   
   

in preview-mode i receved parameters but when the screensaver is supposed to turn on, the mouse hour-glass-animation always keeps flickering !!

maybe someone can help me...

Hello,

I wrote a sketch witch use specifics files to save informations.
this sketch is exported (.exe).
those file are saved with .pod extention.
I want to open my sketch by double clik on ".pod" files in order to use data saved in it.
