I had an old version of Android Mode working fine, but when I upgraded to 4.0, Processing could get set up with the Android Sdk. I am using Processing version 3.3.6.

• I installed API 26 and its build tools
• I followed the steps on [https://forum.processing.org/one/topic/android-problems.html](this forum page) including setting environment variables and updating JDK
• When I manually changed preferences.txt to have android.sdk.path=[my path], Processing complains "Processing found an Android SDK, but is not valid. It could be missing some files, or might not be including the required platform for API 26."
• Otherwise, it simply complains "Processing did not find an Android SDK on this computer."
• If I locate the path manually it says the SDK could not be loaded
• I even tried "Download SDK automatically". The download finished, and Processing said the SDK could not be loaded. I tried locating the SDK manually to where Processing had just downloaded it, and got the same error

I took a look at [https://forum.processing.org/two/discussion/12665/android-sdk-could-not-be-loaded](this post), but nothing there seemed to help.

Surely, there is something I am missing. Can anyone identify what I am doing wrong? Thank you very much in advance!

How do I copy the error message in red (the Error on "VariableDeclarators") here?

Of course, here the error is trivial, but my actual use case is imported Java classes that are missing, and I'm not even getting the full error message written out... Also, it would be great to be able to copy and paste the error text elsewhere.

I've tried the obvious - holding the mouse pointer over the red area and hitting Ctrl-C, nothing happens...

Thanks in advance for your help!

i've some problems like that and i dont know why. What is the problem guys ? can anywone tell me ?

This is the error I am given every time I attempt to open processing of any version I have also uninstalled my java and reinstalled, don't know if that would have help Just wondering if something else might be the problem as I am unable to find any solution

I tried using the Sound library but gave me the error "This library may not me properly installed", blah, blah, 64bits, blah...

I had the same error with the video one, but moving the folder to C:\ (I mean, with only english ASCII characters, no ñ or á), it worked. Now I don't know what the heck is going on with the Sound one :/

It happens with Processing 2 and 3. I tryed to reinstall java, cancel Processing preference, check java path. Nothing. I thing that is something concerning my system a not a processing bug. Do you have some hints about it? Thanks

void draw(){ background(204); line(mouseX, 20, mouseY, 80); }

however, this doesn't:

if (mouseX < width/2) { background (255); } else { background (0); }

Can anyone explain what's happening (or not). I did some of these examples a year ago and I'm sure they worked then???

Maybe I need to debug, but I don't know how (as yet) being a newbie.

Thanks in advance - Joe

==== JavaSound Minim Error ==== ==== Error acquiring TargetDataLine: line with format PCM_SIGNED 44100.0 Hz, 16 bit, stereo, 4 bytes/frame, little-endian not supported.

I managed to get my first code to work (written on Processing 2.1.1): it detects motion via my mac built-in webcam, and applies a reverse-explode effect on an image. Here's the initial code:

//

import processing.video.*;
Capture video;
PImage prevFrame;
PImage img;       // The source image
int cellsize = 2; // Dimensions of each cell in the grid
int columns, rows;   // Number of columns and rows in our system
int largeur,hauteur,largeurInit,hauteurInit,echelle=1,nbPixelsBlancs=0,nbPixelsNoirs=0,saut=10;
float threshold = 10;


//----------------------------------------------------------

void setup() {
  
  
  frameRate(80);
    video = new Capture(this, 640, 480, 80);
  prevFrame = createImage(video.width,video.height,RGB);
  
  size(1000, 562, P3D);
  img = loadImage("fougeres.jpg");  // Load the image
  columns = img.width / cellsize;  // Calculate # of columns
  rows = img.height / cellsize;  // Calculate # of rows
}

//----------------------------------------------------------

void draw() {
    
  // Capture video
  if (video.available()) {
    // Save previous frame for motion detection!!
    prevFrame.copy(video,0,0,video.width,video.height,0,0,video.width,video.height); // Before we read the new frame, we always save the previous frame for comparison!
    prevFrame.updatePixels();
    video.read();
  }
  
  //loadPixels();
  video.loadPixels();
  prevFrame.loadPixels();
 nbPixelsBlancs=0;
  nbPixelsNoirs=0;
 
  
  for (int a = 0; a < video.width; a ++ ) {
    for (int c = 0; c < video.height; c ++ ) {
     
      int loc = a + c*video.width;            // Step 1, what is the 1D pixel location
      color current = video.pixels[loc];      // Step 2, what is the current color
      color previous = prevFrame.pixels[loc]; // Step 3, what is the previous color
     
      // Step 4, compare colors (previous vs. current)
      float r1 = red(current); float g1 = green(current); float b1 = blue(current);
      float r2 = red(previous); float g2 = green(previous); float b2 = blue(previous);
      float diff = dist(r1,g1,b1,r2,g2,b2);
     
      // Step 5, How different are the colors?
      // If the color at that pixel has changed, then there is motion at that pixel.
      if (diff > threshold) {
        // If motion, display black
        //pixels[loc] = color(0);
        nbPixelsNoirs=nbPixelsNoirs+1;
       
      } else {
        // If not, display white
        //pixels[loc] = color(255);
        nbPixelsBlancs=nbPixelsBlancs+1;

      }
    }
  }
   
//----------------------------------------------------------
   
    background(0);

// Begin loop for columns

  
   for ( int i = 0; i < columns; i++) {
    // Begin loop for rows
    for ( int j = 0; j < rows; j++) {
      
      int x = i*cellsize + cellsize/2 ;  // x position
      int y = j*cellsize + cellsize/2 ;  // y position
      int loc = x + y*img.width;  // Pixel array location
      color c = img.pixels[loc];  // Grab the color
     
        // Calculate a z position as a function of mouseX and pixel brightness
      float z = (nbPixelsBlancs / (float(width)) * brightness(img.pixels[loc])/-800);
      float w = (nbPixelsBlancs / (float(width)) * brightness(img.pixels[loc])/-5000);
      
      // Translate to the location, set fill and stroke, and draw the rect
    
     pushMatrix(); 
     translate(x, y, z+w);
     fill(c, 204);
      noStroke();
      rectMode(CENTER);
      rect(0, 0, cellsize, cellsize);
      
     popMatrix();
       
  
    }
   }
 }
 

Here's my problem: I don't want it to work with my built-in webcam, but with a PS3 EYE cam.

Apparently, PS3 EYE only works on Processing 1.5.1, so I tried opening the code above in this version, changing the name of my video source to:

video = new Capture(this, width, height, "Sony HD Eye for PS3 (SLEH 00201)", 1000);

as according to tricks I found there: https://processing.org/discourse/beta/num_1251903672.html

But I receive: "Error while setting up Capture"

I've tried several things, nothing does seem to work… Can someone help me? Maybe a fresh look on it would help… Thanks!

It occurs on line 306. 306 is the very top line ( Below )

 if (inString != null) {
  // trim off any whitespace:
  inString = trim(inString);
  int[] rawValues = int(split(inString, ","));
  for (int i=0; i<numOfSensors; i++) {
    sensorValues[i] = rawValues[i];
    //sensorValues[i] = map(rawValues[i], 0, 100, 0, 1);
  }
}

I was trying to use minim in one of my other projects and was running into issues so I made this very simple program to test things out... I get a "cannot convert from AudioSample to AudioSample" error..? This seems to be the exact implementation from the examples at: http://code.compartmental.net/minim/audiosample_class_audiosample.html.

import ddf.minim.*;
Minim minim;
AudioSample sample;
AudioPlayer player;

void setup(){
  minim = new Minim(this);
  minim.debugOn();
  sample = minim.loadSample("tamb.wav");
  //player = minim.loadFile("tamb.wav");
}
void draw(){

}
void mouseClicked(){
  sample.trigger();
  //player.play();
  //player.rewind();
}

When that didn't work I tried loading the same wav file, a <1 second tamborine sample if that matters, into AudioPlayer (commented sections of code above). It seemed to load in ok but when I tried to play it I got a Java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: 15

There is plenty of room on the device and the sketch is tiny.

Any ideas or tests I can do?

Error trying to parse build system: No data in ~/Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 2/Packages/Processing/Processing.sublime-build:1:1

As a result, I cannot run my code...

What is the issue ? Did this every happen to you or someone you know ? Does it have to do with my version of Processing ?

Thank you !!!

I am trying to log accelerometer data (via Processing 2.2.1) as .csv file to allow me to graphically present the data in Excel, however I am struggling with the Processing code. When I run the following it presents the error: "The function readArduinoInt() does not exist". I have extensively searched this issue for the past 3 nights and drawn a blank. I have taken this sketch directly from O'Reilly's Arduino Cookbook. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

Here is the app code (Client):

public void onClick(View view) {
            t = T.getText().toString();
            if (view.getId() == R.id.send_button) { //check button through its id and set string to send.
                msg = t+" "+string1;
            }
            serverIpAddress = serverIp.getText().toString();
            serverInPort = Integer.parseInt(serverPort.getText().toString());
            if (!serverIpAddress.equals("") && serverInPort != 0) {
                sendMsg(msg);
            }
        }

public void sendMsg(String msg) { // Function to send TCP string
        try {
            InetAddress serverAddr = InetAddress.getByName(serverIpAddress);
            Log.d("MainActivity", "C: Connecting...");
            Socket socket = new Socket(serverAddr, serverInPort);
            try {
                Log.d("MainActivity", "C: Sending...");
                PrintWriter out = new PrintWriter(new BufferedWriter(
                        new OutputStreamWriter(socket.getOutputStream())), true);
                out.println(msg);
                Log.d("MainActivity", "C: Sent.");
                Toast.makeText(this, msg, duration).show();
            } catch (Exception e) {
                Log.e("MainActivity", "S: Error.", e);
            }
            socket.close();
            Log.d("MainActivity", "C: Closed.");
        } catch (Exception e) {
            Log.e("MainActivity", "C: Error.", e);
        }
    }

And this is the Processing testing code (Server):

int port = 1111;       
Server server;

void setup()
{
  size(400, 400);
  background(0);
  server = new Server(this, port);
}

void draw()
{
  // Get the next available client
  Client thisClient = server.available();
  // If the client is not null, and says something, display what it said
  if (thisClient !=null) {
    String incomingMsg = thisClient.readString();
    if (incomingMsg != null) {
      print(thisClient.ip() + "," + port + ": " + incomingMsg);
    } 
  } 
}

Any help would be appreciate. Many thanks in advance

Fab

I just downloaded processing and took a deep dive trying to learn it on my own and create a project for school. I am VERY new to the program and coding in general.

.......

Just to get a feel for the program I took some sample code and made a little prototype. The app runs smooth as butta, but upon attempting to export I get a whole slew of error messages I am unable to decode.

Here is my code:

// setup - runs one time
void setup()
  {
  // set a stage size of 500 x 500 pixels
  size (500,500);

  // smooth all drawing
  smooth();

  // don't draw an outline around your shapes
  noStroke();

  }

  void draw() {
  // Call the variableEllipse() method and send it the
  // parameters for the current mouse position
  // and the previous mouse position
  variableEllipse(mouseX, mouseY, pmouseX, pmouseY);
}
void variableEllipse(int x, int y, int px, int py) {
  float speed = abs(x-px) + abs(y-py);
  stroke(speed);
  ellipse(x, y, speed, speed);
}

// mousePressed - runs every time the mouse is pressed
void mousePressed()
  {
  fill (random(0,255), random(0,255), random(0,255), 50);
  }

And here are the error messages

Thank you SOOO much I feel so frustrated I could cry and this is due next Thursday. I would be eternally grateful for any assistance.

void setup() { PVector v = PVector.random2D(); }

Should I file a bug report?

My problem is a mystery to solve! I was trying learning Casey Reas Compendium here peepproject.com/tutorials/tutorial/25/view, which have is own running interface as you see... Everything is working in this interface, but not in MY processing programme... I have updated yesterday to the last version, maybe is the reason why, but this part of code doesn't want to work :

for(int i=0; i<circles.length;i++){
      Circle other=circles[i];
        if(touching(other)){    //here is the error message
        line(x,y,other.x,other.y);
      }
    }

And this beautiful message appears... but not in the running window on the website... SO... If anyone can explain me why it would be really cool! :) Is it a modification due to update version?

Thanks a lot! Have a beautiful night!

I have two type Gifs and pngs. I am getting a slow sketch at startup and sometimes an out of memory error. I know this is due to loading alot of images at start-up.

I just want to know if there is a java or processing method for loading and trashing images dynamically or loading them outside of setup() only when needed to be drawn??

Cheers in advance

1) can I load an image(s) from a file when I need to draw it instead of loading at runtime in setup? 2) if not, does loading image file on a new thread actually benefit the sketch as either way 1000 images will be loaded? 3) Is there a method to dynamically load and remove images from RAM as I need/no longer need them??

I'm currently having some issues with having sound on my piece.

I want it so that whenever I press inside a hotspot, sound plays, and then when the mouse is released from the hotspot, the sound stops.

The issue, however, is that if the very first click is outside of the hotspot, Processing attempts to stop sound that has not yet been loaded and hasn't played yet. If the very first click is inside the hotspot, the sound loads and plays and can stop as I want it to do.

The code is as follows :

I've updated the Processing app to 2.1.2 version, and now, I have a lot of sketches that doesn't work. Most of them say me that they can't load/found the images. I reviewed the changes/log file and I didn't found anything about that. Any idea?
