PROCESSING 2.0b2 (REV 0210) - 7 September 2012
One major fix for libraries that use key events, and a number of minor
fixes that we've found along the way.
[ fixes and updates ]
+ Libraries with using key events were reporting:
"java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: argument type mismatch"
in beta 1, this is now fixed.
+ Added hint(ENABLE_STROKE_PURE) to deal with Java 2D regression.
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1137
+ Fix for stroke with beginShape(TRIANGLE_FAN)
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1137
+ hint() documentation now updated (except for the hint above).
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1144
+ Using ortho() breaks stroke rendering
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1207
[ fixed earlier ]
+ POINTS mode vertices are huge
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1037
+ Potentially insufficient ellipse detail with P3D/OPENGL when scaled
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=87
+ Implement support for complex shapes when using the OpenGL renderer
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=122
+ modelX/Y/Z broken when aiming a camera
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=148
+ OpenGL broken with JDK 7 on OS X, fixed with new JOGL updates
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1070
+ Problems with OpenGL example sketches
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=902
+ Memory improvements for updatePixels() with OpenGL (P2D and P3D)
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=77
+ Text characters showing up as opaque rectangles
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=80
+ Changing framerate causes program to crash with P2D in 2.0a6
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1116
[ android ]
+ Updated examples from Andres and categories in the examples browser.

PROCESSING 2.0b1 (REV 0209) - 3 September 2012
Bug fixes, new registered methods for libraries, updated keywords,
and we're beta!
[ changes ]
+ Require 10.6.8 as minimum Mac OS X system version.
+ Change name from "Standard" to "Java" mode.
+ Save opened/closed state of entries in the examples browser
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=827
+ Lots of internal changes to loadShape() and PShape.
+ Work on making API more generic and consistent for cross-platform use.
Font PFont.getFont() -> Object PFont.getNative()
Typeface PFont.getTypeface() -> Object PFont.getNative()
Image PImage.getImage() -> Object PImage.getNative()
Bitmap PImage.getBitmap() -> Object PImage.getNative()
+ beginGL() and endGL() are gone, and beginPGL() and endPGL() exist
in their place. The PGL class is a layer that lets us talk to
OpenGL in a way that's cross-platform and consistent. It also has
many GL calls for people who want to access GL directly.
+ New syntax introduced for libraries and registered methods.
Documentation coming soon.
[ bug fixes ]
+ Handle dimming the Find/Replace buttons.
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1056
+ Any double-click inside Examples window opened the last selection on Windows
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1201
+ loadImage() with spaces in path broken with exported applications on OS X
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1073
+ Minor speed fix for PVector.limit()
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1122
+ Jagged / Glitchy JAVA2D shape strokes in Java 1.6 due to recent
change introduced in Java update from Oracle.
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1068
+ GL Android sketches halting after rotation.
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1146
[ known issues ]
+ createShape() is not implemented with the default 2D renderer.
+ See the Changes page on the Wiki for more.

PROCESSING 2.0a9 (REV 0208) - 1 September 2012
As we inch closer to beta, a quick release for testing.
Plenty of video and OpenGL graphics fixes from Andres, and some functions
disappearing due to cleanups by Ben. (Andres giveth, Ben taketh away).
Consider this one to be 'nightly build' quality.
[ general ]
+ Help menu broken when Processing has spaces in its path name in 2.0a8
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1164
+ We now have repeating textures. Use textureWrap(CLAMP) (the usual
version) or textureWrap(REPEAT). If this feature is used for evil
and cheesiness, it will be removed in future releases.
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=94
+ Fix lights in GL renderers on low-end android devices.
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1145
+ Pixels for createGraphics() now transparent for P2D, P3D.
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1156
[ video ]
+ GettingStartedCapture in 2.0a8 launches X11 in Mountain Lion
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1191
+ Some videos were giving OpenGL error with P2D/P3D.
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1166
+ Jump movie to multiple of the framerate for better accuracy.
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1182

+ Fix initialization API for Capture.
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1184
+ Some movie examples were not working in P2D, P3D in 2.0a8
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1178
+ Wrong resolutions reported by Capture.list()
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1192
[ advanced ]
+ Several constants moved out of PConstants and into PGraphics.
+ API cleanup to PShape and unapproved methods.
+ Synchronized Android sources a bit (PShape, PConstants, etc.)
+ Removed several video functions that weren't approved.

PROCESSING 2.0a8 (REV 0207) - 5 August 2012
A handful of bug fixes. Not as large a release as 2.0a7, but I decided
it best to get the updates out there and in use rather than waiting for
beta 1 since I'm not sure when we'll be able to get that out.
[ miscellaneous ]
+ Make sure smooth() is the default with both renderers
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1157
+ "Open" dialog on Linux wasn't showing directories
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1151
+ Double-click was immediately closing example folder (Windows and Linux)
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1150
+ Support native code in Android libraries. Thanks to m4rlonj for the patch!
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1117
+ Don't expand the folders in the examples window (Casey request)
+ Added cmd-shift-O (ctrl-shift-O) for opening examples window
+ Added recent sketches menu to the toolbar
+ Added 'empty sketchbook' indicator when the sketchbook menus are empty
+ Prevent users from deleting the last tab on the only sketch that is
currently open on Windows and Linux.
[ serial ]
+ Added 64-bit RXTX for Mac OS X serial from this page:
http://blog.iharder.net/2009/08/18/rxtx-java-6-and-librxtxserial-jnilib-on-intel-mac-os-x/
+ Added warning message on Mac OS X when /var/lock folders aren't available
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=944
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=937
+ bufferUntil() with values above 127 do not work properly
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1079
[ plumbing ]
+ Switch to using java.awt.Desktop classes for opening folders, links, etc.
+ Include createTextArea() in Editor for the GSOC projects.
+ Add code for setting the L&F from the prefs file for Linux.
+ Added 'all tabs' checkbox to Find & Replace, but not implemented yet.
This would be a great project for someone to finish:
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=25
+ Added notes about "color(0, 0, 0, 0) produces black" to the Wiki.

PROCESSING 2.0a7 (REV 0206) - 29 July 2012
Hopefully the last alpha before we hit 2.0 beta.
The big change is that we're dropping support for applets in 2.0, and in
this release. See the Changes section of the Wiki for details. We've not
updated all of the documentation to reflect this yet.
OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion support has also been added, by virtue of our
paying $99/year for the privilege of releasing our free and open source
application on OS X. When run on 10.8, versions prior to 2.0a7 would report
that they were corrupt, invalid, or not trusted. Which is definitely us.
[ editor ]
+ Implemented a "Recent Sketches" menu. This replaces re-opening
sketches on startup, which behaved inconsistently anyway.
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=188
+ Use Swing file choosers by default on Linux. The default open/save
dialogs provided by Java are pretty gruesome, so we're switching to
the Swing JFileChooser instead. To swap the behavior, set
'chooser.files.native' in your preferences.txt file.
+ Suppress "invalid context 0x0" and "invalid drawable" because they're
(unfixable) Apple Java bugs and being reported as Processing bugs.
Also suppress XInitThreads message on Linux with JOGL, which is a
JOGL bug that'll hopefully be fixed in their next release.
+ Fix Movie Maker tool on OS X.
+ Update to Java 6 update 33 on Windows and Linux.
+ Add separate 32- and 64-bit releases for Windows and Linux. Lots of other
updates for 32/64-bit support in general.
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=955
+ Replace processing.exe with a more standard version from launch4j,
which should hopefully clean up some launcher issues.
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=943
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=176
+ Change how sketches open so that there's no longer differences between
the File menu 'Open' and the way it worked from the toolbar. Simplifies
additional code that was quirky.
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1034
+ Add a warning dialog for libraries that aren't compatible.
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=884
+ Fix up the file choosers used on Linux.
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1014
+ Instead of prompting for sketchbook location on Linux, just default to
a folder named 'sketchbook' in the user's home directory. This can easily
be changed later but simplifies things internally a bit.
+ No longer allow underscore at beginning of sketch name (causes problems
with Android, and also with applets, though we care less about those...)
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1047
+ Fixed a problem where sanitized names (underscores replacing unusable
characters) could potentially overwrite existing folders.
[ core ]
+ Major changes to selectInput(), selectOutput(), and selectFolder().
See the Wiki: http://wiki.processing.org/w/Changes#Change_and_Removed
The changes are there to prevent a threading bug:
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=173
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=931
And also include an option to set the default file path:
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=233
+ Change 'appletViewer' back to 'online'. Still deprecated, especially
because applets are going away.
+ Add begin/endGL added to PGraphics/PApplet.
+ Add hasChildren() to XML library.
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1045
+ Fix where displayWidth/Height not being set properly before setup()
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1120
+ XML now throws exceptions in its constructor (for advanced users).
Use loadXML() instead of "new XML(this, ....)"
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1138
+ loadXML() returns null when the file did not open properly
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1138
+ ortho() causing line and fill to be misaligned
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1143
+ Add some extra options for PApplet.main() for advanced users:
PApplet.main("SketchName") and PApplet.main("SketchName", args)
[ android ]
+ Add full PAppletMethods implementation to Android, so that PGraphics
and PImage methods are brought into PApplet.
+ Swap Run on Device and Run on Emulator
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1083
+ Fix XML crash on loading because of desktop-specific attribute
error: "http://apache.org/xml/features/nonvalidating/load-external-dtd"
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1128
This also fixes PShape on Android:

PROCESSING 2.0a6 (REV 0205) - 1 June 2012
Lots of changes since the last update as we move closer to beta.
Major updates for 2.0 can be seen on the Changes page of the Wiki:
http://wiki.processing.org/w/Changes
[ changes ]
+ Lots of updates to how full screen, multiple displays, etc work:
http://wiki.processing.org/w/Window_Size_and_Full_Screen
+ Added an option for selecting the default display inside Preferences.
+ P2D and P3D are now variations of the OpenGL renderer.
+ XML and Table are now part of the processing.data.* package.
There's also new loadTable() and loadXML() methods in PApplet.
[ bug fixes ]
+ Renaming .pde to .java (or vice versa) complains
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=776
regression from: http://processing.org/bugs/bugzilla/543.html
+ handleFindReference in Editor.java should be public for alternative modes (?)

http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=904
+ Fix whitespace issue with XML
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=975
+ Make displayWidth/Height work properly with multiple screen.
(In the past, screen.width and screen.height just returned the default
display size, not necessarily the display being used.)
+ Built in Hansi's full screen API for OS X, so that sketches can use
full screen without exclusive mode. See the Wiki for details.
http://wiki.processing.org/w/Window_Size_and_Full_Screen
+ Now attempts detect when a sketch's size is the full screen,
and if so removes the frame border, etc.
+ --display option now works properly (on OS X and elsewhere)

PROCESSING 2.0a5 (REV 0204) - 23 March 2012
Major updates in this release include a huge revamp of the OpenGL library
by Andres, fixes to get Android Mode working again, and a number of bug
fixes and additions as we head toward 2.0.
Unfortunately, however, Android mode is still broken on Windows.
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1022
On the OpenGL front, we're working to have a single library that works
across both desktop and mobile, which is good news because it means we have
a fighting chance of making it work (rather than maintaining two entire sets
of a very complicated set of code), but the downside is that it requires
newer versions of OpenGL on both the desktop and mobile, so it may cause
problems with old OSes, mediocre graphics drivers, etc that worked with
earlier releases.
[ bug fixes ]
+ OpenGL applets are working again.
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=845
+ Abnormal high Java CPU usage at empty sketch with draw()
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=729
+ "Framingham" example has BufferOverflowException

+ Doc comments not being properly terminated in export of applet
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=877
+ Tweaks to the code to prevent multiple copies of Processing from
running at once.
+ Fix bug with 'base' not getting set in the Mac OS X platform class.
+ Syntax highlighting not case sensitive in 1.5 through 2.0+
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=913
+ Fix problem with application export on Linux
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=945
+ Fix PImage.get() issue with width or height < 0.
+ (Mostly failed) attempts to improve the performance of tint() with Java2D.
+ Fix so that normals aren't attempted when no texture is set.
+ Several bug fixes inside Table as they relate to inserting/adding columns.
[ changes/additions ]
+ Enable smooth() by default.
+ Added setContent() to the XML library, other tweaks to XML export.
+ Make note of when library is not available (serial) with error msg
i.e. if running in 64-bit mode on OS X, can't do serial
+ Update to Java 6u29 for Linux and Windows (OS X now updated).
+ Don't show library conflict warning until someone tries to build
with code that actually calls on one of those packages.
+ urlEncode() and urlDecode() added (docs coming later).
+ delay() is back again. F*king delay().
+ Added anti-alias methods so that FSAA can set up properly. The API for
these is not set yet.
[ in earlier releases ]
+ Commenting via menu or shortcut does not set sketch to "need save".
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=860
+ Moved the data folder outside the main jar in exported applications.
Otherwise enormous files are sometimes added to the jar, which makes
things needlessly slow.
+ Create new MovieMaker tool to write uncompressed QuickTime movies.
www.randelshofer.ch/blog/2010/10/writing-quicktime-movies-in-pure-java
+ Library imports failing for libs that define the same packages in 1.5.1

PROCESSING 2.0a4 (REV 0203) - 10 November 2011
This is just a quick release so that I can procrastinate on packing for
Chicago a little longer. A handful of bug fixes here:
+ Video capture was broken in 2.0a3 on OS X due to an issue with the build
process. Should be all set now.
+ Fixed incessant "inefficient font rendering" debug message on Android.
+ Fixed android/code/build.xml to point at the correct SDK version.
+ Changing between 32- and 64- bit mode on OS X wasn't properly reloading
library paths. Now it should pick up the necessary 32- and 64-bit version
of a library that's needed. (However there are still no useful error
messages when natives aren't available for the platform--just an
UnsatisfiedLinkError when you try to run. Will fix.)
[ andres' bug victims ]
+ Multiple calls to curve() connect subsequent curves with lines in P3D/OPENGL
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=865
+ Arc not drawn in P3D and OpenGL mode (2.0a2)

PROCESSING 2.0a3 (REV 0202) - 5 November 2011
Some weekend bug fixing and regression repair for the recent alpha releases.
Also several Android fixes to get things working again with more recent
updates from Google. You'll need to upgrade to this version of Processing
in order to continue using Android mode.
[ environment ]
+ Fix problem with serial not loading on Mac OS X.
+ Fix problem with popup menus on the toolbar disappearing immediately
when used on Mac OS X 10.7 (Lion).
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=846
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=887
+ Incorrect tab/line shown for preprocessor errors when more than 2 tabs

+ Fix for video frames not showing up in 3D.
+ Rounded rect() does not have a maximum length for corner radius
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=813
[ android ]
+ Fix libraries when used with Android. Libraries can also specify
an Android version by including an 'android' subfolder.
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=766
+ Fix problem with export menu, keys, toolbar being different.
+ Change default package name a bit.
+ Switch to SDK 8 (Android 2.2) as the minimum that we're supporting.
This allows us to rely on far more consistent OpenGL implementations.
+ Update the project files for Android SDK Tools Revision 15 (now required)
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=876
+ Improve launching with the emulator.
+ Remove 'includeantruntime' warning during build.
+ "Date could not be parsed" error.

PROCESSING 2.0a2 (REV 0201) - 31 October 2011
Happy Halloween! I'll be dressing up as an ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException.
This release is primarily focused on the new video library and making it
usable across platforms. It also has some changes for how applications
are exported, and a number of other bug fixes and tweaks.
[ platforms ]
+ With this release, Java 1.6 is now required. We will no longer be
supporting Java 1.5.
+ In perhaps related news, we are no longer supporting Mac OS X 10.5.
We have to support 10.6 and 10.7 across both 32- and 64-bit, and adding
yet another to that is simply not possible.
[ 32- and 64-bit support is a nightmare ]
+ A great deal of effort is being put into supporting the emergence of
64-bit. Library support has changed significantly to get things working,
more on this coming soon.
+ Serial on Mac OS X and Windows is currently only available for 32-bit.
Hoping someone can help us support a 64-bit version sometime soon.
+ When exporting a 64-bit application for Windows, a .bat file is created,
because our .exe doesn't yet support 64-bit. Assuming you have a 64-bit
JVM installed, the .bat file should load things properly.
+ Because serial only supports 32-bit on OS X, exporting an application
that uses serial will only create a application.macosx32 folder, which
is a 32-bit app for Mac OS X. No application.macosx64 will be created,
nor will a universal application.macosx folder. This is also the case
for other libraries that have only 32- or 64-bit support. See earlier
note that 32- and 64-bit support is an f*ing nightmare.
[ video ]
+ The most significant change in this release is that the new video library
from Andres (based on his old gsvideo library) is nearing fully fucntional.
+ MovieMaker is going to be replaced by a Tool that allows you to sequence
a set of images together into a movie file. The tool currently has a GUI
bug that breaks it, but this will be fixed sometime soon.
[ other changes ]
+ Application is now the default export (instead of Applet).
+ Change to how dataPath() and dataFile() work. This is an undocumented
function, but for those using it, here's the skinny:
dataPath() is only available with applications, not applets or Android.
On Windows and Linux, this is simply the data folder, which is located
in the same directory as the EXE file and lib folders. On Mac OS X, this
is a path to the data folder buried inside Contents/Resources/Java.
For the latter point, that also means that the data folder should not be
considered writable. Use sketchPath() for now, or inputPath() and
outputPath() once they're available in the 2.0 release.
dataPath() is not supported with applets because applets have their data
folder wrapped into the JAR file. To read data from the data folder that
works with an applet, you should use other methods such as createInput(),
createReader(), or loadStrings().
+ Additional library files included with application exports are now placed
in the 'lib' folder on Linux and Windows, or buried inside the OS X app.
This helps prevent the unsightly mess of DLLs that were crowding the
root folder of exported applications on Windows and Linux.
+ If noLoop() has been called but a sketch is resized, redraw() will be
called to update the screen.

PROCESSING REV 0198 - 23 June 2011
Major internal work as we start blowing things up for 2.0. The main things are
covered on the changes page in the Wiki: http://wiki.processing.org/w/Changes
This is an interim release so that Andres can do a workshop. Not recommended
for casual use. Hostile or belligerent whiners need not apply.
Android mode has received zero testing, so XML, SVG, 3D, and other major
features may be broken. See statement directly above.

PROCESSING 1.5 (REV 0196) - 17 April 2011
A lot has changed in the nine months since 1.2.1 was released, the biggest
being the introduction of "modes" for the editor, allowing you to switch
between Android development or the classic desktop/web mode. More modes are
coming in future releases.
Another significant change is a fix for applets that were stuttering or
appearing to run very, very slowly in Firefox 4 and Chrome. That's the major
reason that we're releasing this version in advance on 2.0 later this summer.
All of the changes since 1.2.1 are listed in this document. If you get stuck,
give it a search to see if there might be a clue about something that has
changed. Or if you have problems, please file a bug.
For people who have been using OPENGL2 in the pre-releases, the library
has been removed from 1.5, and will return in future pre-releases before
eventually replacing the built-in OpenGL library for 2.0.
Meanwhile, here are the changes since revision 0195, the last pre-release:
[ pde ]
+ A new version of the reference and examples have been posted online.
+ Upgraded to Quaqua 7.3.4 on OS X. Fixes mode menu checkbox on OS X
+ Added a fix for text focus handling in the editor (0195 problem)

Processing 1.5 release.
This release has several changes to renaming sketches, using Save As,

PROCESSING REV 0194 - 9 March 2011
Lots of fixes for late-breaking problems in release 0193.
[ fixes ]
+ The Auto Format command went missing in 0193. It's back for 0194, but is
now located in the Edit menu, where it will stay for the rest of its long
and happy life.
+ The "Import Library" menu wasn't being updated properly in 0193. Note that
for the time being, there are no core libraries on Android. (OpenGL is built
in, for instance.)
+ Fix mode switching for Windows and Linux.
+ Library examples weren't showing up in 0193, now they're back.
+ Fix for flicker problem in the default renderer.
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=558
+ The examples menu wasn't completely removed in 0193.
+ Remove "temporarily skipping deletion of" debugging message on export.
+ Properly reload examples & libraries when changing the sketchbook location.
+ Fix a problem with untitled sketches and mode switching.
+ Fix problem with Sketch Permissions for Android.
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=559
[ notes ]
+ Because both OpenGL and OpenGL2 are present, there may be conflicts if you
implement any OpenGL-specific code outside the Processing API. If your sketch
includes either of the following lines:
import javax.media.opengl.*;
import javax.media.opengl.glu.*;
then you should remove one of the OpenGL libraries, depending on which you
would like to use.
+ OpenGL is built-in on Android. You don't need to add it as a library, the
way you do with the desktop. A "import processing.opengl.*" line won't
hurt anything (the preprocessor removes it), but it's also not necessary.
(This is also noted in the Android wiki.)
+ Library examples no longer show up buried in the sketchbook. Instead they
can be found in the "Libraries" and "Contributed Libraries" sections of
the examples window.
[ additions ]
+ Added a new icon for "Export to Application", along the lines of the
icons used on the Android side.
+ Remove warning about the broken build.
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=519
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
PROCESSING REV 0193 - 8 March 2011
The PDE is receiving a major overhaul. The most obvious change is that
there's now a menu that allows you to switch between "modes". "Standard"
is the Java-based mode that we're all used to, and "Android" compiles
things for Android devices.
Basically it's all pre-releases from here until 2.0.
With the mode support, it will soon be possible to embed other projects,
like the Python version, or the JS exporter, directly inside the PDE.
More on this later.
This release also fixes a handful of Android problems, like the use of
libraries, the code folder, and so on.
[ core ]
+ Fix problem that made applets suck in Google Chrome and Firefox 4.
+ Fix java.lang.OutOfMemoryError using get() and image() inside a tight loop.
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=42
+ Changed default font to Lucida Sans, available on all platforms.
This means that your text may be a slightly different size if you haven't
used textFont(), but hey, you probably don't use the default font, right?
A fella (or gal) like you?
+ textAlign() incorrect with default font on Mac OS X 10.6
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=362
+ Clean up how PDF fonts are handled. Default to writing fonts as shapes,
which makes PDF files larger, but is likely to work in more cases. If you
want editable/real text, you can call textMode(MODEL) right after creating
the PDF renderer (directly below size() or beginRecord()).
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=416
+ Saving a PGraphics as jpg using save() makes a cmyk file
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=415
+ Fix bizarre window placement when using Present mode on OS X.
[ pde changes/fixes ]
+ Added support for separate 32 and 64 bit versions of libraries.
+ Added a 64 bit version of the OpenGL library.
+ Updates to Java 6u23 in the download.
+ Fix issue with javac.exe not being included in the download.
+ Also added opengl2, which rolls GLGraphics and the new Android OpenGL
library into a newer, faster, more amazinger OpenGL that will eventually
be the default.
+ Added a *lot* of examples. This has also had the effect of making the
download enormous. It's currently obese. We'll sort that out later.
+ Code folder oddity on application export (in SVN)
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=486
+ Processing cannot run because it could not ... store your settings.
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=410
+ AutoFormat unecessarily adds spaces to function with multiple args
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=462
+ Fix for linux build script (thanks to Kevin Keraudren)
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=466
+ Fix the encoding on OS X for the "Fix Encoding and Reload" function
+ Hex value from color picker does not start with #
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=529
+ Console, preferences cleanup: removed build.path, as well as
console.output.file, and console.error.file. Also removed 'console'
true/false from preferences.
+ Change console to write to the 'console/' folder in settings.
This may eventually create a problem with logs that need to be cleaned,
but we'll keep an eye on it for now.
+ Add splash image on OS X.
+ Added window for examples. It's a bit ugly, but the menu was too much
and we should be able to clean this feller up later. Also makes the
examples a bit more obvious.
+ Updated the serial library for Mac OS X
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=503
http://rxtx.qbang.org/wiki/index.php/Download
+ Accented letter input is broken (on OS X and Windows)
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=335
Had to disable input method support (Japanese) for now.
+ For projects with too many tabs, condense the ones that are used less.
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=54
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=17
[ fixed in 0192 ]
+ Auto-format screws up if/else/else if blocks
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=325
+ Exported libraries don't mantain symbolic links
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=353
[ android edits ]
+ Add better icons from Casey for exported applications.
+ Remove the need to download the android core.jar separately
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=421
+ Remove the Google APIs requirement, just use the standard.
This means losing the standard skin on the emulator, but we'll see
about bringing it back in some other fashion in the future.
We weren't actually using the Google APIs, so it seemed silly
because of how much complexity it added.
+ Deal with issue of debug certificates expiring.
http://forum.processing.org/topic/ant-rules-r3-xml-209-395-error#25080000000262001
+ Fix use of .java files in Android projects
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=404
+ Save state for whether using Android or Standard mode
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1380
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=202
+ New mode support makes the Android switch less clunky
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1379
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=201
+ With mode support, "Run on Device" and "Run in Emulator" instead of
"Run" and "Present".
[ internal changes ]
+ Removed build.path from preferences.txt.
Not really used anywhere, just trying to clean things up.
+ Removed 'console.output.file' and 'console.error.file'.
These weren't respected as paths, no reason for them.
+ Change console to write to the 'console/' folder in settings.
This may eventually create a problem with logs that need to be cleaned,
but we'll keep an eye on it for now.
+ Removed 'console' true/false from preferences.
+ Cannot reproduce problem with wrong character encoding in the console.

PROCESSING REV 0192 - 18 December 2010
This release contains a roll-up of lots of bug fixes. However, it's being
released before it's ready, so it should only be used by people who are having
trouble with the new Android SDK release (revision 8) from Google, which
broke Android support last week.
This version of Processing for Android *requires* Android SDK Tools Release 8.
If you're not using release 8, and don't have the necessary components
installed, you'll get (confusing) error messages saying that the SDK location
is not set, and that it could not find an SDK in the location that you specify.
As for this being an early release, the problem is that major changes were
underway regarding how libraries are handled, so it's quite possible that
library support (in both the standard or Android version) or code folder
support is somewhat broken. So with that caveat, no whining, please.
On a happier note, the changes:
[ android fixes ]
+ Compile android-core with Java 5 as the target so that it works on OS X 10.5.
[ additions from andres ]
+ A3D should use lower color depth on older devices.

PROCESSING REV 0190 - 18 August 2010
This release is primarily for Android users. For the desktop version, there
are some problems with fonts. If you're using text, especially with PDFs,
you may want to wait until the next release.
Android users should read the Wiki (http://wiki.processing.org/w/Android)
which has a lot of new information.
[ android ]
+ Added a new menu to cover enabling/disabling Android mode.
+ Added a Permissions dialog, so that you can set permissions for your
applications, e.g. so you can read from the internet or save files.
+ Added support for icons. Put files named icon-32.png, icon-48.png,
and icon-72.png in your sketch folder, and they'll be added to your
project when it's created. Otherwise you'll get an ugly blue dot
default icon. You've been warned.
+ Finish implementing the size() command on Android. See the Wiki for notes.
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1397
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=211
+ Finish implementation of P3D/OpenGL/A3D for Android.
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1396
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1401
+ Allow screenWidth/Height as parameters to size().
+ Fix mouseX/Y mapping when using smaller screen sizes.
+ Fix text ascent/descent problem, text("blah\nblah") wasn't working.
+ Fixed how the manifest file is read/written.
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1429
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=221
+ Copied the XML and font changes from the desktop version of core.
+ Removing 'import processing.opengl.*' in the preprocessor, since it's
not needed, and will cause a conflict.
+ Added functions to lock orientation if necessary. Use:
orientation(LANDSCAPE) and orientation(PORTRAIT) if you need control.
+ createGraphics() works with A3D/P3D/OPENGL for phones that support it.
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1488
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=240
+ Fix errors showing up that .java files were duplicates.
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=232
[ core ]
+ Changed skewX/Y to shearX/Y.
+ ENABLE_NATIVE_FONTS was being ignored, native fonts were always used
in some cases. However, this broke some other things. But that's why
this is a pre-release, not a final.
[ xml fixes and changes ]
+ Changed the XML constructor to take a String for a node name, instead of
parsing a document from a String. Instead, use XMLElement.parse(String)
if you want to read a file.
+ Added getBoolean() methods.
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=304
+ Removed namespace versions of the getXxxx() methods. These were never
documented, and cause more trouble than they're worth.
+ Changing getIntAttribute() et al to getInt(). The old versions are still
there, but have been deprecated.
+ Added listChildren() method.
+ XML attributes named "xmlns" always returned NULL, now fixed.
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1196
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=166
+ When re-saving an .ods file, wasn't including all the namespace at the top.
+ Several fixes to how namespaces are handled (or not handled).
+ Methods to saved XML elements back out again.
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=963
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=126
+ Update XMLElement constructor problem.
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=342
[ environment ]
+ Added more specific language to Lnux/Sun/Java error messages on Linux.
Also added support for "Oracle" in the name.
+ Fix the New/Open buttons on the toolbar
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=323
+ Changed how "Save As" works, now copies everything in the sketch folder.
But still ignores applet, application.*, screen-* files/folders
+ Edit > Copy as HTML didn't properly encode < and >
Also added support for other Unicode entities for non-ASCII characters.
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=351
+ Ctrl-Z will undo, but not scroll to where the undo happens. Fixed earlier.

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
+ Updated the URLs opened by the software to reflect the new site layout.
http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=278

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
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.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

things work fine with API v6, the new minimum.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
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
+ Deprecated 'screen', adding screenW and screenH. See discussion here:

+ Added implementation for get/set methods inside PImage (w/o pixels[])
[ fixes to android core ]
+ Fix noLoop() and static-mode sketches.

http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1497
+ arc() now working properly
+ createGraphics() works, at least with A2D (or aliases P2D and JAVA2D)
+ Fixed "The application ... has stopped unexpectedly." when quitting slow app
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1485
+ test createFont()
+ createGraphics() broken
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1437

http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1471
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1469
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
+ 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!
+ 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 ]
+ 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
[ 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
+ Changed shift-backspace to just mean backspace, rather than delete. You
can change back to the old behavior by setting 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
[ fonts ]
+ Starting 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.

PROCESSING 1.0.8 (REV 0170) - 18 October 2009
A bonfire of bug fixes.
[ environment ]
+ Fix bug causing preferences to not save correctly.
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1320
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1322
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1325
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1329
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1336
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1337
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1344
+ Remove menu dimming code, in-frame menu bar, and warning message on OS X.
A year later, Apple fixed the spinning wheel w/ the menu bar problem.
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=786
+ Fix "Unrecognized option: -d32" on OS X 10.4
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1324
+ 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
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1092
+ Saving the project with the same name (but different case)
as an existing tab was deleting code on Windows and OS X.
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1102
[ 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.

PROCESSING 1.0.7 (REV 0169) - 4 September 2009
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
+ Auto-format was killing Unicode characters (how did this last so long?)
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1312
+ 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.

simply need to replace the Java folder with the distribution with something
more suitable for your operating system.
+ Command line support is currently broken
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1048

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.

+ 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
notes from earlier releases because this file was getting out of hand.
