processing-java not working

Blake1

Hey all, I am using processing 3.3.6 on Windows 10 and I have been trying to get the command line to open. When I click on java-processing it brings up the command prompt for a split second and then disappears. I am able to run processing just fine but not the command line. I deleted the preferences file and also disabled my anti-virus and that doesn't seem to work either. I also tried turning off the firewall but that didn't fix it either.

Any help with trying to fix this problem would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

I ran the command \processing-java.exe --l4j-debug in the command prompt and it gave me this output:

Just to clarify, you are trying to run a sketch using the command line? If you open a command prompt session and then browse to your Processing folder containing both executable files, you get the following info if you type processing-java:

C:\Users\C\Documents\P3\current\processing>processing-java

Command line edition for Processing 0263 (Java Mode)

--help               Show this help text. Congratulations.

--sketch=      Specify the sketch folder (required)
--output=      Specify the output folder (optional and
                     cannot be the same as the sketch folder.)

--force              The sketch will not build if the output
                     folder already exists, because the contents
                     will be replaced. This option erases the
                     folder first. Use with extreme caution!

--build              Preprocess and compile a sketch into .class files.
--run                Preprocess, compile, and run a sketch.
--present            Preprocess, compile, and run a sketch in presentation mode.

--export             Export an application.
--no-java            Do not embed Java. Use at your own risk!
--platform           Specify the platform (export to application only).
                     Should be one of 'windows', 'macosx', or 'linux'.

The --build, --run, --present, or --export must be the final parameter
passed to Processing. Arguments passed following one of those four will
be passed through to the sketch itself, and therefore available to the
sketch via the 'args' field. To pass options understood by PApplet.main(),
write a custom main() method so that the preprocessor does not add one.

As you see, it explains how to use the processing-java executable. More info: https://github.com/processing/processing/wiki/Command-Line
