PROCESSING 3.4 (REV 0265) - 26 July 2018
Kind of a huge batch of bug fixes and updates.
We've had trouble on Windows when MS Security Essentials or Windows Defender decides to defend your machine from our software, removing files from the
download and making Processing unusable. A few extra checks have been added
so that more helpful warnings can be conveyed when this happens.
The other important fix is better handling in the Contributions Manager
for sites that use https. This fixes Python Mode installation, and many
others that have recently started reporting "Could not find a ... in the
downloaded file" when installing a Library, Mode, Tool, or Example set.
We're also bumping the release to 3.4 because of a lot of additions,
plus some internal changes that have an impact on API.
[ the big ones ]
+ Show alternate error message on Windows when jnidispatch.dll or core.jar
have been removed by Windows Defender or Microsoft Security Essentials.
https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/5537
https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/4929
https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/5442
This has been a huge headache for us. We've repeatedly submitted the
software and asked Microsoft for help, but haven't had any luck.
If you run into this issue and would like to help, please submit the files
to Microsoft here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/wdsi/filesubmission
Perhaps if there are enough reports, they'll understand this is affecting
a lot of people.
+ Contributed libraries/examples/etc that redirect to https URLs now working.
https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/5554
[ new features ]
+ It's now possible to make your own theme file for Processing. Copy the
theme.txt file from inside the Processing folder to your sketchbook
folder, and then edit away. For instance, to make a dark theme:
https://github.com/processing/processing/wiki/Dark-Theme-for-PDE
+ It's now possible to copy the text of the status bar. Click the clipboard
icon at the right-hand side to copy the text to the clipboard. To search
immediately, use shift-click.
https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/5271
https://github.com/processing/processing/pull/5345
The default search engine is Google, but you can modify that by altering
the 'search.format' line in preferences.txt
+ Added pyde as a supported extension, so double-clicking
on Python sketches will launch the PDE.
https://github.com/jdf/processing.py/issues/284
[ do you like data? ]
+ Added Double and Long versions of the data classes. Not sure if we'll
keep these, but we're trying them out.
+ Also add subset(long) and subset(double) to PApplet
+ Changed the internal Sort class to use int for comparisons for better
accuracy, especially when working with double and long values.
+ Consistently implemented write(PrintWriter) in the List and Dict classes
+ Added save(File) to the List and Dict classes
+ Prevent Table.sort() from throwing NullPointerException with empty cells
[ updates ]
+ Fixed up the Welcome dialog. When closing the window or hitting ESC,
the "show this" selection is recorded. Also clicking that text will
toggle the checkbox on/off, as users would expect.
https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/3911
https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/3912
+ Redesigned the Rename window to be less ugly. Now closes when ESC is
pressed, and the default action is set so hitting Enter will work properly.
https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/5391
https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/5400
+ Rewrite exec() to do threads, also handle fast/excessive output cases
+ Rewrite requestImage() to fix errors/slowness/concurrency problems
+ Refactoring inside the completion code

https://github.com/processing/processing/commit/ff7dc4d5094ccf1cc35189c9412adda93153b436
+ Now using Java 8u181.
https://github.com/processing/processing/pull/5586
+ Change lack of blendMode() to a warning rather than an error in PDF
+ Updated the copyright and year in the launch and About screen.
[ give gohai a hand, because he's all arm ]
+ A large number of changes and fixes for ARM submitted by Gottfried,
who also posted 3.3.7.1 and 3.3.7.2 interim releases with some of these
changes already present. Now we're back on track with 3.4.
+ Additional I/O improvements
https://github.com/processing/processing/pull/5581
