I'm having a problem to convert an array to a array list.
When I use:
"    listOfFiles = new ArrayList<File>(Arrays.asList(Folder.listFiles())); "
It keep showing: "Cannot find anything named "Array"", wich makes me think that Processing don't have any Arrays class, as in Java:
( http://stackoverflow.com/questions/157944/how-to-create-arraylist-arraylistt-from-array-t)

Btw, listOfFiles = Folder.listFiles().asList(); also give me that error message "Cannot invoke asList() on the array type File[]"

There's another way to do that?

Well, I'm trying to use pdfbox to create a image trough a pdf file.
There only a few codes of this on the web and almost all of then have some problems, so I can't have a good reference.
Here's is my code:

//lots of import

void setup() {
  size(200, 200);
}

void draw()
{
  PDDocument pdf = null;
  pdf = PDDocument.load(new File("C:\\Users\\Pedrog\\Documents\\Processing\\pdfConvert\\testing.pdf"));
  PDFImageWriter imageWriter = new PDFImageWriter();
  imageWriter.writeImage(pdf, "png", "", 1, 10, "imagemPdf");
}

But I keep reciving IOException on load function, I checked the library reference and they say that happens when: "If there is an error reading from the stream.". ( http://pdfbox.apache.org/apidocs/org/apache/pdfbox/pdmodel/PDDocument.html#load%28java.io.File%29)
I've already checked the path, the file name and executed processing as admin but nothing helped me.
Can someone give me any ideas?

Thank you.

Hi,
I was thinking to do some kind of a multiple RSS Feed Window using processing. At this project I need open pdf, images(jpeg,maybe gif), websites and then display them on a divided window.
Something like this:



I was thinking to convert the pdf files to any kind of image using: http://pdfbox.apache.org/
But I had no ideas for the Web RSS Feed.
Is this viable using processing?

Thank you.

Hi everybody,
I'm developing a plataform game such as mario. For this, I've been using pBox2d and all the fisics are almost done, so I began to create all the sprites/animations. But at the moment, my real problem is how to properly treat images to use then as sprites/background.

First I tryed to use background fuction to load my background, but the image that've created for it was bigger than the screen, so I failed. After this I used loadImage before I draw any sprites, but it make my game start "laging" and too slow.
Then I thought if I could "cut" the background image, set as background and when my character moves I cut it again and set as Background? But I didn't find any library to do that :/.
Can someone help or tell how properly do that?

Thank everyboy and sorry about my english.
