PROCESSING REV 0187 - 12 July 2010
More bug fixes, and one new treat for OS X users. Hopefully we're about
set to call this one 1.2. Please test and report any issues you find:
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/list
[ additions ]
+ On Mac OS X, you're no longer required to have a sketch window open at
all times. This will make the application feel more Mac-like--a little
more elegant and trendy and smug with superiority.
+ Added a warning to the Linux version to tell users that they should be
using the official version of Java from Sun if they're not.
http://wiki.processing.org/w/Supported_Platforms#Linux
There isn't a perfect way to detect whether Sun Java is in use,
so please let us know how it works or if you have a better idea.
[ fixes ]
+ "Unexpected token" error when creating classes with recent pre-releases.
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=292
+ Prevent horizontal scroll offset from disappearing.
Thanks to Christian Thiemann for the fix.
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=280
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=10
+ Fix NullPointerException when making a new sketch on non-English systems.
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=283
+ Fixed a problem when using command-line arguments with exported sketches
on Windows. Thanks to davbol for the fix.
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=303
+ Added requestFocusInWindow() call to replace Apple's broken requestFocus(),
which should return the previous behavior of sketches getting focus
immediately when loaded in a web browser.
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=279
+ Add getDocumentBase() version of createInput() for Internet Explorer.
Without this, sketches will crash when trying to find files on a web server
that are not in the exported .jar file. This fix is only for IE. Yay IE!

PROCESSING REV 0186 - 26 June 2010
Minor updates following up on 0185.
[ mixed bag ]
+ Android SDK requirement is now API 7 (Android 2.1), because Google has
deprecated API 6 (2.0.1).
+ More Linux PDF fixes from Matthias Breuer. Thanks!
+ PDF library matrix not reset between frames. (Fixed in 0185.)
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1227

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
PROCESSING REV 0185 - 20 June 2010
Primarily a bug fix release. The biggest change are a couple tweaks for
problems caused by Apple's Update 2 for Java on OS X, so this should make
Processing usable on Macs again.
[ bug fixes ]
+ Fix for Apple bug that caused an assertion failure when requestFocus()
was called in some situations. This was causing the PDE to become unusable
for opening sketches, and focus highlighting was no longer happening.
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=258
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1564
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1569
+ Fixed two bugs with fonts created with specific charsets.
+ Fix from jdf for PImage(java.awt.Image img) and ARGB images
public PImage(java.awt.Image) was setting the format to RGB (even if ARGB)
+ Large number of beginShape(POINTS) not rendering correctly on first frame
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1572
+ Fix for PDF library and createFont() on Linux, thanks to Matthias Breuer.
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1566
+ Fix from takachin for a problem with full-width space with Japanese IME.
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1531
+ Reset matrix for the PDF library in-between frames
also added begin/endDraw between frames
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1227
[ additions ]
+ Add the changes for "Copy as HTML" to replace the "Copy for Discourse"
function, now that we've shut down the old YaBB discourse board.
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=271
+ Option to disable re-opening sketches when you start Processing.
The default will stay the same, but if you don't like the feature,
alter your preferences.txt file to change:
last.sketch.restore=true
to the following:
last.sketch.restore=false
The issue was originally filed here:
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1501
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=245
However the main problem with this is that due to other errors, the wrong
sketches are being opened, sketches are sometimes forgotten, or windows
are opened concurrently on top of one another, creating a bad situation:
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=177
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=179
Those bugs are not yet fixed, but will be addressed in future releases.
+ Option to change the default naming of sketches via preferences.txt.
First, you can change the prefix, which defaults to:
editor.untitled.prefix=sketch_
And the suffix is handled using dates. The current default (since 1.0) is:
editor.untitled.suffix=MMMdd
Or if you want to switch back to the old (six digit) style, you could use:
editor.untitled.suffix=yyMMdd
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1091
+ Updated bundled JRE/tools to 6u20 for Windows and Linux
+ Several SVG fixes and additions, including some tweaks from PhiLho. These
changes will be documented in a future release once the API changes are
complete.
+ Added option to launch a sketch directly w/ linux. Thanks to Larry Kyrala.
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1549
+ Pass actual exceptions from InvocationTargetException in registered
methods, which improves how exceptions are reported with libraries.
+ Added loading.gif to the js version of the applet loader. Not sure
if this is actually working or not, but it's there.
[ android ]
+ Added permissions for INTERNET and WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE to the default
AndroidManifest.xml file. This will be addressed in greater detail here:
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=275
And with the implementation of code signing here:
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=222
+ Lots of work happening underneath with regards to Android, more updates
soon as things start evening out a bit.
+ Defaulting to a WVGA screen for the default Processing AVD.

PROCESSING REV 0184 - 14 April 2010
Pre-release version with more bug fixes. Proper release notes will
accompany an actual release. If you're curious in the meantime, look
at todo.txt and done.txt from the source tree.
+ The 'Export' option now works in Android, so that you can get at
the debug APK that's created.
+ Problems finding javac.exe on Windows should now be fixed.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

PROCESSING REV 0182 - 29 March 2010
Bug fix pre-release. This updates three areas:
+ All known bugs with auto-format have been fixed (!)
+ A handful of bug fixes for the Java 5 syntax changes.
+ Fixes for using text with PDF Export.
A more thorough revisions update will be written for the next full
release version (1.2? 1.5? 2.0?) that includes all these changes.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Another update for the preprocessor changes (see below).
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
PROCESSING REV 0180 - 15 March 2010
This is a interim release with a reworked preprocessor that adds Java 5
syntax. We're releasing this interim version because we need help testing
it since it has an impact on any sketch created in the Processing environment.
Basically, we mighta goofed something up big, and we wanna catch it before
we throw it to the wolves.
The release also fixes a number of preprocessor bugs. Those changes will
be documented a bit later.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
PROCESSING 1.1 (REV 0179) - 11 March 2010
This is the first general-purpose release since 1.0.9. The text below merges
all of the changes from all the interim revisions, with the exception of the
changes for the upcoming Android tools, which are not enabled in this release.
Lots of bug fixes over 1.0.9, and several changes that improve how fonts are
handled. Because of the large number of changes (and that some functionality
actually changes, if that's actually a word), this is release 1.1 instead
of release 1.0.10. Which is nice, because release 1.0.10 sounds baffling.
[ font changes ]
+ It's no longer necessary to use textFont() before text() and other
text-handling functions. The default "SansSerif" font is used, which
varies by platform.
+ Also in this release, the createFont() method will only load characters
as they are used, which should greatly improve the font situation on
non-Roman systems like Japanese. This will use far less memory, and should
be all around much more efficient. Formerly, createFont() took several
seconds to run, depending on the speed of your system.
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1111
+ Fixed a problem with the Create Font tool ignoring the 'smooth' setting
on some systems.
+ Fixed a separate problem with the createFont() method also ignoring the
'smooth' setting.
+ With the Create Font tool, you can also specify what Unicode character
blocks you'd like to use, making a much smaller font.
+ Fonts are no longer power of 2 by default. This should also make them more
memory efficient. With future OpenGL updates, this will work even better.
[ other changes ]
+ Lots of edits to the HTML that's used for exported applets. If JavaScript
is enabled, Sun's new loading functions are used, which offer the best
compatibility across browsers. If not, the old loading method is used.
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1057
+ Changed the OpenGL HTML template to load differently, which should fix a
NullPointerException in JOGLAppletLanucher with Java 6 Update 18 on Windows,
and should also be more efficient altogether, because the JOGL libraries can
be downloaded just once from Sun, rather than for each sketch that uses them.
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1452
+ Code from Takachin that handles full input method support in the editor for
Japanese and other scripts that are more complicated than Roman text.
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=854
Thanks Takachin!
+ Now using iText 2.1.7.
+ Changed how imports are handled in sketches. This may break some sketches
that use java.xxx packages that aren't covered in the Processing reference.
+ With great help from Hansi, moved the build scripts over to Ant.
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=151
Also moved the special JRE for Linux and Windows out of SVN. It'll only be
downloaded when 'ant dist' is run.
+ Javadoc is slowly improving. More on that later.
+ Deprecated 'screen', and added screenWidth and screenHeight. Discussion here:
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1499
[ bug fixes ]
+ Fix for filter(DILATE/ERODE) from Dave Bollinger
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1477
+ Added implementation for get/set methods inside PImage (w/o pixels[])
+ Updated JNA to version 3.2.4 to support Windows 7 64-bit
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1424
Thanks to Maik for tracking down the problem and solution!
+ Fix from taifun_browser to handle texture memory leak with OpenGL and P3D.
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1423
+ Hitting ESC inside Color Selector would quit Processing
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1006
+ To fix video, and some other libraries on Snow Leopard, exported applications
are now explicitly set to run 32-bit on OS X.
+ Fix LITERAL_class so that blah.class syntax can be used in PDE code.
Found and fixed by Christian Thiemann. Thank you!
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1466
+ Fix from Chris Lonnen to lock the minimum size for the main processing editor
frame. (When too small, the console would disappear, etc.) Thanks Chris!
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=25
+ If you overwrite PApplet.main(), you're responsible for what happens.
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1446
+ Re-enabled hack for temporary clipping. Clipping still needs to be
implemented properly, however. Please help!
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1393
+ SVG paths that use 'e' (exponent) not handled properly
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1408
+ Change build scripts to use UTF-8 for encoding with javac
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1394
+ Fix ant.jar/ant-launcher.jar error in the windows/linux build scripts
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1403
+ Fixed a problem where imports inside comments were being included.
[ keys ]
+ Added ctrl-ins, shift-ins, shift-delete for cut/copy/paste on Windows and
Linux, but disabled by default on Mac OS X. You can change the setting by
altering "editor.keys.alternative_cut_copy_paste" in preferences.txt.
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=162
+ Added a preference to change shift-backspace to just mean backspace,
rather than delete. Set this entry in preferences.txt:
editor.keys.shift_backspace_is_delete = true
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1463
+ Added an option for home and end keys traveling to the start/end of the
current line rather than the beginning/ending of a sketch. The latter is
the HIG default for Mac OS X, but drives some people nuts. Change with:
editor.keys.home_and_end_travel_far = false

PROCESSING REV 0178 - 4 March 2010
Tons of Android work in this release. A2D has been tested and runs correctly
for all of the examples in "Basics" and "Topics". A3D is not quite finished
yet, and the size() command is still causing crashes.
This release also contains lots of work on Android Mode for the PDE, which
is being worked on by Jonathan Feinberg.
[ core ]
+ Fix for filter(DILATE/ERODE) from Dave Bollinger
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1477

PROCESSING REV 0177 - 21 February 2010
Fix for the Android tools complaining "Open quote is expected for
attribute "{1}" associated with an element type android:minSdkVersion."
Just posting a new revision because it's easier than writing instructions
for swapping the pde.jar file.
PROCESSING REV 0176 - 20 February 2010
Android changes are at the top, changes for the rest of Processing are listed
below that (a tipoff being that there's no PDF library on Android...)
[ android ]
+ Minimum platform support is changing to 2.0 instead of 1.6. That means
"Eclair" or later, and goodbye to my T-Mobile G1, undoubtedly the ugliest
cell phone I have ever owned. Hello to Droid and Nexus One.
Performance is very poor on pre-2.0 devices anyway.
+ Known issue: Sketches that use noLoop() are currently broken.
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1467
+ Added support for libraries and the code folder.
+ Classes have moved to the processing.core package instead of
processing.android.core.
+ Slashes in the SDK path are now escaped properly on Windows.
+ Fix problems preventing Android Mode from running on Windows
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1432
+ The tint() method now works.
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1435
+ loadFont() and text() now work properly. createFont() has not been tested.
[ changes ]
+ Lots of edits to the HTML that's used for exported applets. If JavaScript
is enabled, Sun's new loading functions are used, which offer the best
compatibility across browsers. If not, the old loading method is used.
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1057

+ Code from Takachin that handles full input method support in the editor for
Japanese and other scripts that are more complicated than Roman text.
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=854
Thanks Takachin!
+ Downgraded the PDF library to use iText 1.5.4, because later versions seem
to load slower, and don't seem to offer additional benefits. If the PDF
library gets worse, please post a bug and we'll go back to the 2.x release
we were using, or upgrade to the more recent 5.x series.
+ Changed how imports are handled in sketches. This may break some sketches
that use java.xxx packages that aren't covered in the Processing reference.
+ With great help from Hansi, moved the build scripts over to Ant.
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=151
Also moved the special JRE for Linux and Windows out of SVN. It'll only be
downloaded when 'ant dist' is run. This makes the build and maintenance
more of a mess for me, but will save me from people whining about the
large files.
+ Javadoc is slowly improving. More on that later.
[ bug fixes ]

+ Update the outdated "Get the latest Java Plug-in here" in exported applets.
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1331
+ Use temporary files when saving files inside the PDE. Prevents problems
when the save goes badly (e.g. disk is full).
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=967
+ Fix problem with "Save changes before closing?" was being ignored.
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1193
+ Fix problems with adding/deleting tabs.
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1332

+ Saving the project with the same name (but different case)
as an existing tab was deleting code on Windows and OS X.

[ core ]
+ filter(RGB) supposed to be filter(OPAQUE)
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1346
+ Implement non-power-of-2 textures for OpenGL (on cards where available).
This is a partial fix for texture edge problems:
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=602
+ Fix get() when used with save() in OpenGL mode
+ Immediately update projection with OpenGL. In the past, projection
updates required a new frame. This also prevents camera/project from
being reset when the drawing size is changed.
+ Removed an error that caused the cameraNear value to be set to -8.
This may cause other problems with drawing/clipping however.
+ Removed methods from PApplet that use doubles. These were only temporarily
available in SVN, but that's that.
+ Use temporary file with saveStrings(File) and saveBytes(File).
[ updates ]
+ Updated to Minim 2.0.2. (Thanks Damien!)
http://code.compartmental.net/tools/minim
+ Updated Java on Linux and Windows to 6u16.
+ Updated Quaqua to 6.2 on Mac OS X.

Bug fixes and updates, also some tweaks for Mac OS X Snow Leopard.
[ changes ]
+ Tweaks for Mac OS X Snow Leopard, to force it to run in 32-bit mode.
This should bring back the video library (if temporarily), and hopefully
fix serial as well, though I didn't have a serial device handy to test.
+ Fix problem where line highlighting was off in 'static' mode.
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1263

+ PVector.angleDistance() returning NaN due to precision errors
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1316
+ Removed a major try/catch block from PApplet.main(), hopefully
this will allow some exception stuff to come through properly.

PROCESSING 1.0.4 (REV 0166) - 31 May 2009
Bug fix release.
[ changes ]
+ Changed the workaround for Apple's Java bug related to the menus in OS X.
Rather than placing the menubar inside the sketch window, File > Sketchbook
and File > Examples are simply dimmed out. Instead, use the Open button
on the toolbar, which provides access to the same items. The preference
to place the menu bar inside the window is still available, in case you
prefer the previous workaround.

PROCESSING 1.0.1 (REV 0163) - 29 November 2008
Processing 1.0 has arrived! You can read an overview of changes introduced
in the last few months here: http://processing.org/reference/changes.html
Also see the "known issues" section of the troubleshooting page:
http://processing.org/reference/troubleshooting/#known
This release (1.0.1) fixes a handful of issues that only showed up once we
had more testing, particularly with the wider audience we've received in the
past week following the announcement.

PROCESSING 1.0 (REV 0162) - 24 November 2008
Processing 1.0 has arrived! You can read an overview of changes introduced
in the last few months here: http://processing.org/reference/changes.html
[ known issues ]
+ Sketches that size(w, h, OPENGL) and do not clear the background on each
frame can cause major flickering or problems when the screen clears anyway.
There are several possible solutions:
1. You may need to disable the default 2x smoothing by using
hint(DISABLE_OPENGL_2X_SMOOTH).
2. Update the drivers for your graphics card.
3. Get a decent graphics card -- the OpenGL renderer is for advanced
use, we don't support using it with cheaper built-in graphics hardware
like the Intel GMA 950.
4. If you're running Windows Vista, try disabling the Aero theme.
This flickering issue is being tracked here:
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1056
+ "An error occurred while starting the application" when launching
Processing.exe on Windows. This is a high priority however we cannot
reproduce it on any of our test machines, which has delayed a fix.
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=986
+ With P2D, P3D, and OPENGL, series of connected lines (such as the stroke
around a polygon, triangle, or ellipse) produce unattractive results when
strokeWeight is set.
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=955
+ Unlike most applications, the menu bar is inside the editor window when
Processing is used with Mac OS X 10.5. This is a workaround for an Apple
bug in Java 1.5 and 1.6 on Mac OS X 10.5 that causes the menu bar to be
so excessively slow that the application appears to have crashed.
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=786
Please file a bug report with Apple at bugreporter.apple.com if you want
this fixed. The problem has existed since the spring, and we first filed
a bug with them in June, and we have received no indication that it when
it will be fixed, or if it will ever be fixed.
Or if you want to take your chances with the slow menu bar,
you can change the default setting in the Preferences window.
+ Sketches that use the video library plus OpenGL have a problem on some
OS X machines. The workaround is listed in Comment #16 of this bug:
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=882#c16
+ Command line support arrived in a recent release, but is not working yet.
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1048
+ OpenGL rendering is more dim/darker in release 0149 and later.
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=958
Any help tracking this down would be most appreciated.
+ The first few frames of OpenGL sketches on Windows run slowly.
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=874
+ When used with P3D, strokeWeight does not interpolate the Z-coordinates
of the lines, which means that when rotated, these flat lines may
disappear. (Since, uh, lines are, you know, flat.) The OPENGL renderer
setting does not share this problem because it always draws lines
perpendicular to the screen (which we hope to do in a future release).

in spite of their historical feel good campiness, i've removed the
