I've got some background in programming and a lot of other IT background (but not any Java related yet, so P5 is first into that field).
I'd like to use a different IDE rather than the processing IDE for easier code management etc. I've read the pages on using JEdit and Eclipse, and even seen a mention somewhere about Notepad++.
However, I've not gotten any of them to work "completely" (meaning with shortcuts, ability to select code hiding/folding blocks, integration into Processing to run). I have gotten Eclipse to run P5 scripts. I was able to follow some of the JEdit instructions, but perhaps some things have changed as I couldn't follow or find the location to load the shortcut file.
So, since I'm not particular (yet ha-ha) about which IDE I use (they are all equally new to me but I'm used to some of the Micrsoft / Visual Studio type tools) I'd like your feedback and experience with various IDE's using the latest 2.0b8.
Your recommendations and suggestions or tips on getting the most out of the IDE with P5 would be greatly appreciated.
I'd like to build both Processing and Processing.js apps that will communicate from and to a MS SQL Server. Where can I find more info on how to do this, examples, etc?
I have some applications I both need and want to build at work, and it'd be neat to use Processing in some form to do that rather than pay another company a lot of $ for their Java based app when I could just code what I want myself.
And some other neat things I think Processing would help with in reviewing the particular data I have to work with.
Thanks for some direction. I've searched the web but not found almost anything helpful yet.
would like to take a photo and convert into an etch-a-sketch type line / shaded drawing. Anyone know of something that can do that? Even if a gimp plugin for exmaple or other program?
