I've read the database-related material in Ben Fry's "Visualizing Data," explored the Processing web site, and done some general googling but I haven't found any obvious way to make queries to a FileMaker Pro database from inside Processing. I'm committed for this project to using FileMaker Pro as the database, so moving to MySQL or PostgreSQL aren't available options. First hope would be an already-created library I could simply import and use, but I haven't found that.
What I'm hoping is that I could use ODBC as a bridge between a Processing sketch and the Filemaker Pro database. I don't need to add or modify any of the data, I just need to query it and extract various subsets. I'd deeply appreciate any advice on how to get started with this, or suggestions on alternative approaches I haven't considered. Thanks.
