Cannot find anything named "quicktime"

PauloPurcino

Hi,Everyone! Sorry annoying . I'm very new in Processing.

I'm just triyng use flob library.So when I RUN the code. it doesn't work. My pc is win. 7 64.

The error is:

quicktime.QTSession.open(); ((((((((((CANNOT FIND ANYTHING NAMED "QUICKTIME")))))))))

How to solve this? Thanks!

Before accessing a variable, it gotta exist 1st! So we need to declare it!
And we can't directly link images residing in our own desktops.
They need to come from some internet server!

GoToLoop, How can I do this? Could you please be more specific ?I'm totally a beginner!

GoToLoop

• Variable declaration in Java is when we specify its type in the statement.
• For example int num; declares a variable called num of type int.
• We can also declare and assign a value at the same time: int num = 10;.
• Once we have a variable declared, we use it w/o re-declaring it: println(num);.

More about variables and the their classification as fields, local & parameters:

GoToLoop, Thanks again for the help! I tried to read and try understing as well. But it's really hard right now! Could you tell me exactly what I should do to this work?Maybe some exemples?

GoToLoop

I dunno that library and you haven't posted enough code to work with!
Your description seems to allude that the compiler couldn't find a variable called quicktime.
And I've already explained how that error can happen.

Sorry again! Is it possible check out my problem?

GoToLoop

Screenshots are far from an ideal way for "posting" code. It's too blurred!
But as far as I can see it, I couldn't spot where some variable called quicktime was supposedly declared, much less initialized! /:)

PauloPurcino

:( I dont know what to do!

GoToLoop

Variable declaration is the most basic knowledge in programming.
We simply must know how to do it! ~O)

About 3rd-party libraries, we have to look up their API reference in order to know how to use them! :-B

Hi both of you and everyone, I have the same problem than Paulo. I write a part of the code with which I'm working on. If someone have information, it could be really helping. Thanks

int m = 0;  
int im = 0;
float h=0;
int counter = 0;
Capture video;
Flob flob; 
ArrayList blobs;
PImage pal;
int px, py; 
color pix;
randomShape rs;

int tresh = 20;       
int fade = 25;
int om = 1;
int videores=128;
boolean drawimg=false; 
String info="";
PFont font;
float fps = 60;
int videotex = 0; 

Botao b1;


void setup(){
  background(255);

  array = new Bubble[ maxNum ];
  try { 
    quicktime.QTSession.open(); 
  } 
  catch (quicktime.QTException qte) { 
    qte.printStackTrace(); 
  }

Note: you must install QuickTime, too...
