PROCESSING 2.1 (REV 0223) - 27 October 2013

There have been major changes since 2.0.3, most of them are outlined inthe release notes for 2.1 beta 1 (look down a few dozen lines).

This release includes a few updates to fix problems introduced in the betarelease, as well as additional general bug fixes, especially for OpenGL.

+ Added an option to not embed the Java runtime into an exported application. This saves you the 100 MB footprint, but requires your users to install Java 7u45 or later. Details on the same page that nobody read last time: http://wiki.processing.org/w/Export_Info_and_Tips

+ The new println() (see the beta 1 notes) makes some old code behave alittle differently. In the past, println() with an array would writeout the array, one element per line, with the index in the front. i.e.:

PFont.list()) would write something like this to the console:

[0] "Serif" [1] "SansSerif" [2] "Monospaced"

[3] "Dialog" [4] "DialogInput" [5] "ACaslonPro-Bold" [6] "ACaslonPro-BoldItalic" ...and so on

Now it's going to write out something like:

Serif SansSerif Monospaced Dialog DialogInput ACaslonPro-Bold...


8/84

To get the old behavior, use printArray(). It's the price of progress,and shouldn't really "break" anyone's code since it's just writing to the

console. We think the new syntax outweighs the downside of the change.

With arrays of primitive types (int[], float[], anything that's not an object), we've added code so that println() works as before. But we can't do the same for arrays of objects, such as String.

+ The preference for font smoothing (anti-aliasing) in the editor has been reset in this release. Fonts are unusably gross on OS X (and Linux)without smoothing and Oracle's version of Java (now in use with 2.1),

and many longtime users have anti-aliasing turned off. You can stillturn off smoothing in the Preferences window, but the results may be poor.


[ bug fixes ]

+ Fix dataPath() problem with OS X (was breaking Movie on export)

+ Command line processing-java was broken in 2.1 beta 1 on OS X https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/2159

+ Fix a situation where processing-java would return 0 instead of 1 on errors https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/1798#issuecomment-26711847

+ Alpha values from the pixels array were coming back as 0 https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/2030

+ Additional UI font tweaks due to decreased legibility with Oracle Java https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/2135

[ OpenGL updates ]

+ Using sketchQuality() does not work properly with P3D, OPENGL, P2D

https://github.com/processing/processing/pull/2157

+ Fix crashes when the sketch window is resized https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/1880 https://github.com/processing/processing/pull/2156

+ scale() wasn't affecting stroke weight in P3D https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/2162

+ Add set(boolean) to PShader https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/1991 https://github.com/processing/processing/pull/1993

+ Add PMatrix.preApply(PMatrix) https://github.com/processing/processing/pull/2146 https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/2145

+ Updated to another version of JOGL (jogl-2.1-b1115, gluegen-2.1-b735) for OS X 10.9 support.

+ Add warning when no uv texture coordinates are supplied https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/2034


9/84

+ Flicker issues when resizing P2D/P3D/OPENGL https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/15

+ Additional fix for occasional flash/flicker with drawing complex scenes https://github.com/processing/processing/commit/cca2f08a24ef892c494f5a75aa0e4b01de7e5d8a

PROCESSING 2.1 beta 1 (REV 0222) - 20 October 2013

This release contains major changes. The big ones:

+ Java 7 is now used across all platforms. On Mac OS X,we're now embedding Java 7u45. More info here:

http://wiki.processing.org/w/Supported_Platforms#Java_Versions

+ Major changes have been made to Export to Application.Read here: http://wiki.processing.org/w/Export_Info_and_Tips

+ print() and println() now make debugging fun! They can now take anynumber of parameters, which means that code like:

println(x, y, mouseX, mouseY); will print out 3 5 142 220 No more println(x + " " + y + " " + mouseX + " " + mouseY); that was for suckers!

+ A new serial library has been added! The results of Gottfried Haider's Google Summer of Code project now replaces the old serial library.

And everyone should wish Casey Reas happy birthday today!This release is my birthday present for him. What did you get him?

Here's a more detailed rundown of what else is in this release:

[ new features and additions ]

+ For people using Eclipse, the new print() and println() methods add some quirks because of how println() works for arrays in previous versions of Processing. When printing an array, you should instead use the new printArray() function, which works the same as the old println(). This will help avoid the compiler warnings with Eclipse and others. In the PDE, this should be transparent, because warnings are not shown. https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/2056

+ Update the JavaDoc, remove java.* package prefix ugliness. Also link

out to the online version of the Oracle documentation.

+ Major work on the source and the build scripts as we completed thetransition to Java 7, and away from Apple's deprecated Java 6.

http://wiki.processing.org/w/Supported_Platforms#Mac_OS_X

+ Incorporated a version of Oracle's appbundler for OS X build. Made heavy modifications to the original version to add features and simplify.

+ Culled un-needed resources from the Java 7 runtime to save space.


10/84

Unfortunately Java 7 is also much larger than Java 6, so the size change isn't as considerable as we would hope.

+ Remove unused/outdated 'Mangler' Tool example

+ Remove video library for other platforms in download. This savessignificant space because we're not doing cross-platform export anymore.

+ Update apple.jar file with new version https://developer.apple.com/legacy/library/samplecode/AppleJavaExtensions/Introduction/Intro.html

+ Update build instructions on Github https://github.com/processing/processing/wiki/Build-Instructions https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/1629

+ Many changes to the Supported Platforms page http://wiki.processing.org/w/Supported_Platforms

+ Updates to the Export page to cover changes in this release http://wiki.processing.org/w/Export_Info_and_Tips

+ Removed the 32- and 64-bit selector from the Preferences on OS X. Java 7 on OS X only supports 64-bit, so 32-bit is no longer available.

[ editor fixes ]

+ Deal with null/missing folders for Tools and Modes https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/2068

+ Non-compliant libraries cause crash on "Add Library" https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/2026

+ Open new PDE maximized when current PDE is maximized https://github.com/processing/processing/pull/2037

+ cmd-left was bringing up the text area popup, causing X Mode weirdness https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/2103

[ core bug fixes ]

+ Screen stops updating sometimes with retina displays on OS X https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/1699 This was an Apple bug, and is fixed by our switch to Oracle's Java 7.

+ Background color for present mode had no effect https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/2071 https://github.com/processing/processing/pull/2072

+ Add desktopPath() and desktopFile() methods for testing (not finished)

+ Unicode NLF causing problems in XML files https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/2100

+ Java2D images crash after being resized https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/2113

+ Constrain lerpColor() between 0 and 1. Unlike lerp(), where it mightmake mathematical sense, going outside the boundary colors producesreally messy results.

+ JSONObject/Array.format(-1) not working on embedded JSONObjects https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/2119

+ Fix insertRow() bug with Table https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/2137

[ opengl updates ]

+ Notify users that Modes and Tools require restart. https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/1782 https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/1504 http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1466

+ Change the location of the manager download to something more stable.

+ Restrict library categories to the ones in the document. If it's not correct, shows up as 'other'.

+ Catch Errors (not just Exceptions) when loading libraries, modes,and tools. Handles UnsupportedClassVersionError and other quirks.

+ Redo handling of "old" versions of contributions.

+ Update example list when library is installed https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/1909 https://github.com/processing/processing/pull/1925

[ data, data, data ]

+ Error in IntList and FloatList insert() https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/1929

+ Add a sort() method to Table.

+ Implement version of Table that takes a dictionary file. Syntax is: Table t = loadTable("bigdata.tsv", "dictionary=bigdata-dict.tsv") This allows you to set the data type of columns before loading, which provides much better performance and lower memory usage.

+ Constructing table from an Iterator is missing https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/1956

+ Add sum() to IntList and FloatList https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/1893

+ When using increment() on IntList, make sure the index exists and automatically resize the list if necessary. This is more in keepingwith increment() in the Dict classes.

+ getSubset() broken in IntList, StringList, and missing from FloatList https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/1979

+ Add join() method to Int/Float/StringList

+ Add getContent(defaultValue) to XML

+ Add isNull() (returns boolean) to JSONObject/Array https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/2009

+ Add getXxxx(xxx, defaultValue) methods to JSONObject/Array https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/2007

[ internal changes you'll never notice... unless I broke something ]


16/84

+ Add an exception wrapper for startup, hopefully we can catch/debug more "Processing can't start!" issues with this.

+ Update JNA from 3.2.4 to 3.5.2.

+ Updated JOGL to 2.0.2.

+ Added methods to move files to Trash/Recycle Bin where available.

+ Implement basic proxy server support for update checking and the contribution managers. https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/1476

+ Basic getShape(ch) implementation for font glyph shapes. Not finished and (therefore) not yet documented.

+ Change QUAD_BEZIER_VERTEX to QUADRATIC_VERTEX to match the API call (because this lives inside PConstants).

+ Add retina switch for PApplet to set useActive with OS X and 7u40. Prevents speed/performance issues with old sketches on retina macs.

+ Add error message for raspberry pi (and others?) about int buffers


[ changes ]

+ Experimental Mode has been removed from the default download,so that it can be updated more frequently. Install it and help ustest what will become the 3.0 release of Processing!

+ Add "Processing Foundation" to the Help menu. https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/1908

PROCESSING 2.0 (REV 0218) - 3 June 2013

And just like that, here we are at 2.0.

[ bug fixes ]

+ Example window has the Java application icon https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/1800

+ The update checker sometimes insisted there were updates,even though there were not, due to a build problem. https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/1792

+ P2D/P3D sketches don't get focus until clicked https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/1700

[ changes ]

+ A handful of tweaks to smooth out the 2.0 user interface.Incorporates some of the feedback suggested here:https://github.com/processing/processing/pull/1822


18/84

while trying to preserve the look & feel of our PDE design.

+ Added built-in fonts (Source Sans and Source Code from Adobe) as the default font for the UI and editor. As usual, the editorfont can be changed in preferences.txt. And if you already havea preferences.txt file, the new font won't override it. Fonts

for GUI elements can be modified in lib/theme.txt, but be careful with those, and don't complain if/when they break.

+ Added several additional functions for data classes. More detailsin the reference and coming soon.

+ Changed how null values were handled with binary tables. If anyone was using the (undocument) .bin format for Table, you'll need tore-save your data.

+ Changed XML.toString() (what's called when you print() or println()an XML object) to just send a single line of text instead of a fullXML document with a header. Use format(numSpaces) if you want a

properly formatted document with declaration at the top.

[ andres on the attack ]

+ PImage not drawn after resize()/get() in P2D/P3D

+ PShape setVertex has a memory leak https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/1670

+ PGL lacks a wrapper for the alphaFunc() method and the ALPHA_TEST constant https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/1703

+ Implement textMode(SHAPE) for 3D https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/777

+ An internal change so that PImage.loadPixels() doesn't call the renderer. Fixes some odd quirks in saveFrame() and other draw/get/save operations.

+ Setting smooth(n) affects disables background in setup() https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/1452

+ textureWrap(REPEAT) + textureMode(IMAGE) clamps positive coordinates https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/1809

+ P2D, P3D drawing errors in static mode, gray screen https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/1648

+ Window shorter than 127 pixels high is not rendered correctly in P2D/P3D

PROCESSING 2.0b9 (REV 0217) - 18 May 2013

The 2.0 interface has arrived! Mmm... pretty.

We've removed Android and JavaScript modes from the default download. Youcan easily install them by selected "Add Mode" from the Mode menu. They'vebeen removed because the changes have not kept pace with the rest ofProcessing, and it was holding up the release of 2.0. As separate projects,we hope it'll be easier for volunteers to get involved, rather than ourtiny, worn out development team. View the projects here:https://github.com/fjenett/javascript-mode-processinghttps://github.com/processing/processing-android

There are also lots of goodies in the new data classes found in theprocessing.data package that will make it much easier to handle data from

inside Processing. More documentation coming soon!

We're hoping this is the last beta before 2.0, but we're still hagglingwith one or two issues that could require a beta 10. That's a lot of beta.

[ fixes ]

+ Change error message for libraries (especially serial) for 32- vs 64-bit to clarify that the 32- or 64-bit version of Processing can be used instead.

+ Rebuilt the internal Runner to use SocketAttach... This may bring upa firewall message on some machines. Don't worry, it's safe (as long as

the message is showing up when you hit Run, that's expected).

+ Add set(x, y) to PVector.

+ Removed div() and mult() from PVector, since not a legit math operation. https://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1506 https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/1544

+ Add official API for mouse wheel support https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/1461 http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1423

+ Incorporated JDI changes from Manindra. This makes the download a little larger, but is a step toward being able to have a simpler download that only requires a JRE (and is therefore much smaller!)

PROCESSING 2.0b7 (REV 0215) - 7 December 2012

475,382 bug fixes in this release as we work on finalizing 2.0.

[ changes ]

+ Removed all imports that aren't covered in the Processing reference.If you use java.awt, java.util, or other classes in your sketch, you

will need to add an import line to the beginning of your sketch.

Only the classes that are covered in the reference (HashMap, ArrayList,and some others) are now imported by default. This has been done to improve

overall cross-platform parity and to avoid users unknowingly addingJava classes, and then the sadness that comes when switching to Android

or JavaScript modes.


26/84

The list of imports is now hard-coded (no longer read from preferences.txt) and includes the following: import java.util.HashMap; import java.util.ArrayList; import java.io.BufferedReader; import java.io.PrintWriter; import java.io.InputStream; import java.io.OutputStream; import java.io.IOException;

If we're missing anything that's covered in the reference, please let usknow via the bugs database.

+ A new "experimental" mode has been added. It's the start of combining two of our Google Summer of Code projects (DebugMode and XQMode) to enablea debugger and on-the-fly error checking. We're including it in the release

so that folks can test it out and let us know how it's doing. The interface still needs work and its innards may be a bit buggy, but it represents some exciting upcoming improvements for the PDE.

+ hint(ENABLE_ACCURATE_2D) has been renamed to hint(DISABLE_OPTIMIZED_STROKE) to better reflect what it actually does. Reference has been added. OpenGL drawing is significantly faster when the fill and stroke of a shape is drawn separately. This leads to visual artifacts on shapes where both

fill and stroke is enabled (not a great idea in 3D anyway), so this option fixes the visual artifacts at the expense of speed. http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1302

+ Sketch names can no longer begin with underscores (fixes an Android compatibility issue). This was changed in recent releases, but missing here. http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=859

+ More Mac OS X key bindings have been implemented in the editor: http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1354 http://guides.macrumors.com/Keyboard_shortcuts&section=10#Text_Shortcuts

+ Set quality level higher when exporting JPEG images. This will result

in larger JPEG files with save() and saveFrame(), but the default qualitysetting in the past was unacceptable for many/most projects.http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=58

See the bug report link for how to implement in case you want to setthe quality lower (or even higher) than the new default.

+ Table row iterating syntax has changed. This code: for (TableRow row : table) { ... } has now changed tofor (TableRow row : table.getRows()) { ... }

(This may change to rows() on the next round, pending other API tweaks)

+ Change default for shift-backspace to just be backspace. To change it back,

set editor.keys.shift_backspace_is_delete=true in preferences.txt.

+ Implement clip() and noClip() to set the clipping region.

+ Added blendMode() feature. http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1385

+ Add different styles of arc drawing. http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=711 http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1406

+ ortho() displays strange line widths. http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1285

+ Resizeable frame crashes sketch with AMD video card. http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1175

+ set(x, y, PImage) doesn't work with P2D/P3D.


+ begin/endShape with a single vertex causing crash on P2D/P3D. http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1421

+ Using a PGraphics as a texture produces visual artifacts. http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1420

[ android ]

+ Like the desktop release, removed default imports. This includes: android.view.MotionEvent, android.view.KeyEvent,android.graphics.Bitmap due to conflicts w/ the new event system, and hoping to enforce better

cross-platform compatibility between Java, JavaScript, and Android modes.

+ Changed event handling to hopefully clean up some inconsistencies. Removed motionX/Y/Pressure... these need to be handled separately.More here: http://wiki.processing.org/w/Android

+ mouseX/Y no longer include history with moves, which reduces fidelitya bit, but will hopefully prevent us overdoing it for future releases.

PROCESSING 2.0b6 (REV 0214) - 2 November 2012

Patching up command line issues that went backwards in the last release,a number of OpenGL fixes, and more internal changes and updates.

[ bug fixes ]

+ Command line support was broken in 2.0b5, with an error about processing-java ClassNotFoundException: BatchCompiler

http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1334 On Mac OS X, you may need to re-run the "Install Command Line" tool.

+ Make sure the sketchbook is being picked up on the command line, so that imported libraries are handled correctly.

+ Import statements were executed within multiline comments. http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=911

+ Editor not responding properly if the "External Editor" preference had been enabled with a previous release.http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1355

+ A number of OpenGL fixes to better handle older chipsets, like the GMA 950 (found on lots of older Mac Minis and similar hardware).

+ Reverted back to an older version of the JOGL library to prevent issues with sketches locking up. In particular, this should fixsketches that use the video library:http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1338


+ Icon loading was causing an error if you used a package for your code. http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1346

+ No longer using --request on OS X 10.6, since it's not available.

Avoids a harmless warning message on the console when running a sketch.

[ changes/additions ]

+ Added an option to Preferences to enable/disable advanced input method support to handle complex scripts like Japanese, Korean, or Chinese. http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=526

+ Add option for blinking and/or block caret in the editor. To disablecaret blinking in the text editor, add this line to preferences.txt:


32/84

editor.caret.blink = true Or to just a block caret, use this: editor.caret.block = false http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1136

[ internal ]

+ Removed applet-related preferences, and the 'applet' subfolder in thesource/distribution.

+ Removed the old 'cmd' folder from the source/distribution

+ Preferences are now written in sorted order to make it easier to handle comparisons or other debugging.

+ Major change to handle how the 'lib' folder is found, hopefully does abetter job with command line support.

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

PROCESSING 2.0b5 (REV 0213) - 22 October 2012

Fixes for a few regressions that showed up in 2.0b4, plus some internalchanges to simplify how modes are handled.

[ bug fixes ]

+ Libraries not installed through IDE had blank names. http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1331

+ mouseButton not being set properly on Windows (and probably Linux). http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1332

+ Console disappearing with increased editor font size. http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1275

[ changes/internal ]

+ Change how modes are set up so that XQMode, our Google Summer of Code project can work properly.

+ Implement multiple sizes of icons for PDE and core. This improvesthe quality of the icon seen on Windows and Linux attached to frames.

PROCESSING 2.0b4 (REV 0212) - 21 October 2012

Command line support is back! Find and Replace works over multiple tabs!The Mac OS X version should work again in spite of Apple's best efforts!

[ additions & removals ]

+ Command line support is now available for Java mode. On Windows and Linux,use the processing-java program. On Mac OS X, there's an option in the


33/84

Tools menu to install the command line tool.http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=142

Build and export options should even work in headless mode when enabled (no guarantees, but simple test results were promising). http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=220

Android and JavaScript mode are not supported, contributions are welcome: http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1323

+ Added a Tool for Mac OS X to help set up serial port. Using serial onOS X requires some incantations on the command line, and this prompts for

an administrator password and takes care of them for you. The commands involve creating a folder and setting a few permissions. If everythingis already set properly, the Tool will not be present in the Tools menu.

+ With the arrival of command line support, the misunderstood and sometimes maligned "Use External Editor" option has been removed.http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=515

+ Fix several problems introduced by Apple's recent Java "update". Apple's most recent Java update may render older versions of Processing completely unusable, it's not quite clear yet.

[ bug fixes ]

+ Fix the exceptionally slow startup (a 5 second delay) in recent releases.

+ Find & Replace over multiple tabs (thanks to Manindra Moharana for the patch!) http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=25

+ calling jump() resets movie speed http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1303

+ Fixed sketch renaming regression in underscore handling http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1310

+ Fix library manager temporary folder problem on Linux) http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1295

+ Default sketchbook folder was going to wrong location on Linux http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1286

+ mouseButton wasn't getting set on mouseReleased() http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1294

[ technical updates ]

+ JOGL has been updated, which may help iron out some GL quirks.

+ Change all build.xml files to use Java 6 as both source and target (avoids Java 7 warnings during build).

+ Updated ecj.jar to use jdt-core.jar... This is a larger file but werehoping that this would get our GSoC project "XQMode" working without

the need for patches. Sadly that's not the case, but stay tuned.

[ known issues ]

+ Fewer exclamation points will be used to introduce future releases.

+ Remove bad cast in PGL during error reporting.

+ Make Mode menu into a radio button, so it cannot be de-selected http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1227

[ changes and additions ]

and the main drawing surface is not an OpenGL renderer. http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1217

+ Make file selectable from the OS X menu bar. Thanks to Hansi for the patch. Note that this only works for sketches that have been saved. http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1215

+ Added registerMethod(keyEvent) to Android, though motion and mouse events are still unavailable.

+ Cleaning up the internals of Preferences and untitled sketches. Fingers crossed that these don't give us last-minute regressions.

PROCESSING 2.0a8 (REV 0207) - 5 August 2012

A handful of bug fixes. Not as large a release as 2.0a7, but I decided


38/84

it best to get the updates out there and in use rather than waiting forbeta 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

+ 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 iscurrently open on Windows and Linux.

PROCESSING 2.0a7 (REV 0206) - 29 July 2012


39/84

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 inthis release. See the Changes section of the Wiki for details. We've notupdated all of the documentation to reflect this yet.

OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion support has also been added, by virtue of ourpaying $99/year for the privilege of releasing our free and open sourceapplication on OS X. When run on 10.8, versions prior to 2.0a7 would reportthat they were corrupt, invalid, or not trusted. Which is definitely us.

[ editor ]

+ Implemented a "Recent Sketches" menu. This replaces re-openingsketches 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 tothe 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. Simplifiesadditional code that was quirky.


+ 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.


+ 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 problemswith Android, and also with applets, though we care less about those...)



40/84

+ Fixed a problem where sanitized names (underscores replacing unusablecharacters) 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 PGraphicsand 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: http://code.google.com/p/processing/issues/detail?id=1054
