4 _ mangled menu text with java 6u10
4 _ need to try adding the d3d flag to the .exe
4 _ http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1065
[ needs verification ]
_ export and export to application fail with umlauts in folder name

_ stop button needs to update itself and work properly [1.0]
_ also editor buttons to light up and clear properly
_ http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=396
_ need someone to go out and test all scenarios of this
[ known bugs ]
_ command line support is currently broken
_ http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1048
_ some fixes can be found in the bug report
_ video library threading problems with other libraries
_ http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=882
_ using Capture.list() before size() sometimes works
_ also placing OpenGL inside the extensions directory
_ serial.available() broken with video
_ http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=829
_ first few frames of OpenGL sketches on Windows run slowly
_ http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=874
_ Slow response or spinning wheel from the menu bar on Mac OS X
_ http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=786
_ sometimes not launching
_ this seems to be a threading problem, like an NPE on load/open
_ probaby related to the other load/save sync errors
_ significant point() and set() slowdown on OS X
_ http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1094
with casey
_ specifically add "eclipse" to integration description
_ link books and sample chapters from the "getting started" portion of the faq
_ keep examples.zip in a zip file? (5000 files @ 30 MB instead of 15 MB zip)
_ mark examples as untitled (rather than read-only)
_ maybe even pull these directly from the zip file?
_ load examples from zip files
_ http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1049
_ disallow add file to sketch, export, export application
_ pretty much anything inside the sketch?
_ but don't do this with untitled, cuz it kinda stinks
_ this is too weird--just put examples into individual zip files
_ mark example files as untitled
_ though will that require the sketch to be saved before export?
_ find in reference issues
_ if() and for() don't work, they look for for_.html instead of for.html
_ XMLElement is not linked for find in ref
_ the ? operator is not in find in ref (no ref page either?)
_ update keywords generator script on the site

_ otherwise several links break on the main faq page
_ discuss i18n issues and proper system (?)
_ look through 404 issues on the site
_ TRIANGLE_STRIP not highlighted for "find in reference"
_ nor is it listed on the reference page
_ so students can't find the ref for it
_ needs to link TRIANGLE_STRIP to the beginShape() reference
libraries and classpaths [1.0]
_ versioning info
_ http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/extensions/versioning.html
_ java.ext.dirs for /System/Library/Java/Extensions
_ http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/extensions/spec.html
_ can set java.ext.dirs to something else
_ on osx, just ignore anything in /Library/Java/Extensions (but not others)?
_ native lib stuff, use native.txt in lib folder, then:
_ String osName = System.getProperty("os.name");
_ String osArch = System.getProperty("os.arch");
X update to jogl 1.1.1
X do this with enhanced library/platform support
X see how platform is determined by jogl / use for lib import
_ add control for dependencies (i.e. svg needs xml), needed for export
_ http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=518
_ add "pretty menu name" to the export.txt file
_ move export.txt to xml? (nah, it's only flat information)
_ need better platform designation setup for libs
_ library installation should use the sketchbook folder, not the p5 folder
_ actually enforce this, give users a warning about other libs
_ need to deal with classpath conflicts
_ avoid garbage that people have installed on their machines
_ antlr.jar in the classpath will cause trouble..
_ http://processing.org/discourse/yabb_beta/YaBB.cgi?board=SoftwareBugs;action=display;num=1138652326
_ jogl jar files, or jogl install will cause trouble
_ /System/Library/Java/Extensions or /Library/Java/Extensions
_ the /System one contains qtjava
_ the /Library one is empty (by default), maybe skip it?
_ when a conflicting library is found, need to report it
_ altho prolly only when it's actually different (md5hash it?)
_ this seems to be causing a lot of trouble with recent releases
_ (opengl changes and whatnot)
_ jar files like the bad aiexport plugin will cause serious problems
_ need to ignore processing.core classes showing up in other jar files
_ tougher than it looks, because it all depends on what java wants to use
_ i.e. even if not specified, the stuff will be in the classpath
_ need to make classpath code be less promiscuous
_ the order of adding libraries to classpath should be opposite
_ the important local libraries should be first in cp, user contrib later
_ http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=321
_ java.extension.dirs has the library/extn stuff
_ can probably set this blank
_ the jar from which a class file has been loaded
_ getClass().getProtectionDomain().getCodeSource().getLocation().getFile()
_ example from jsyn

_ set DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH to include .dylib and other framework stuff
_ java.library.path will only handle .jnilib stuff
_ need better error messages for broken api / library troubles
_ e.g. ocd is broken in 0125 because of method signature changes
_ could have library developers update compatability note
_ so they would need to test library and say "compatible with 0110"
_ before it would automatically update or show as an update
_ tools -> get library
_ library url: [ http://blahblah.org/something ]
_ this would grab something.version, and something.zip
_ maybe something.xml that would include a bunch of background
_ tools -> update libraries
_ this would check the something.version to see if it's newer
_ document how to add libraries: put in sketchbook (not libraries folder)
_ library/download.url and library/home.url
_ if there's a reference subfolder, add that to the help menu
o and enable it for "find in reference"
X nice idea but too error-prone

_ PDE locks up during setup() (since no window shown)
_ http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=687
_ maybe better to do an example of running code on another thread
_ when it's done as a script
_ stop() to shut down a sketch (but not quit/close window)
_ MIN_FLOAT, MAX_FLOAT, also the difference from the Java functions
_ also MIN_INT and MAX_INT, even though those are more similar
_ update the reference to cover parseXxxx() stuff
_ also add notes about parseInt/Float(blah, otherwise)
_ also parseInt and parseFloat, how they can return another number or NaN
_ should the default be NaN or 0?
_ get/set are faster way draw screen space images, but no tint, no translations
_ make sure the docs include "beginShape() cannot be nested"
_ also add error messages to the renderers
_ also note that ellipse() et al use beginShape()
_ and that java2d should complain if people try it
_ method to go from function name to the included examples where used?
_ encourage use of set() instead of point() in the drawing api

_ add: quaqua, jna, registry stuff, .. ?
_ quicktime likes to crash (not just on windows)
_ http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=791
_ noLoop() isn't the same as "finished", though it's sometimes used that way
_ to finish, use exit() (though that will make the window close)
_ add this to ref once halt() is finished
_ errors in pdf/index.html examples
_ probably remove these, move the useful ones to the examples folder
_ that way people will read the reference
_ i can't fix these:
An unexpected error has been detected by HotSpot Virtual Machine:
# EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION
all i can do is find things that might trigger them, but it's more likely
than not to be a java problem, and not something that can be fixed

_ PApplet.this doesn't work
_ doesn't work in javac either--needs to be ClassName.this
_ sketchname.this also doesn't work, because Temporary_NNNN used for name
_ but since it's another tab/class, will run externally
_ so should make the external version use the actual sketch name not temp
_ can't use PApplet.this, doesn't seem to like that
_ instead, must pass variable to inner class
_ errors with serial and libraries
Exception in thread "Thread-2" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError:
processing/core/PApplet
at processing.serial.Serial.<init>(Serial.java:156)
generally, that error means that something is missing from the
CLASSPATH. the NoClassDefError gives erroneous feedback about *what*
class is actually missing, as of java 1.3+ (yay!)
so perhaps conflicting versions of a library in the sketchbook (solve
this by setting to an empty sketchbook temporarily) or files might be
installed in the CLASSPATH variable or something conflicting in
/System/Library/Extensions.
DOC / Text
_ how to use textMode(SHAPE) with opengl
_ things will be extremely slow (fix later)
_ things will also be very ugly on-screen
_ text being nicer in java2d
_ use createFont() to load the font or use a font from your machine
_ note that createFont() is no good for applets/export to web
_ textMode(SCREEN) for P2D and P3D for nice fast text in screen space
_ currently slow in JAVA2D and OPENGL, but this will improve
_ what is the vlw font file format?
_ shapes from 3D type
_ the way to do it (will improve later) is to use some undocumented features
_ 1) you have to use the OPENGL renderer
_ 2) use textMode(SHAPE);
_ 3) use createFont() (which you already are)
_ this will convert all the shape data from the fonts for writing.
_ it will be *extremely* slow, which is part of why it's not documented yet.
_ but it will work with beginRaw().
DOC / Discourse Board
_ auto-close threads when not posted to for 30(?) days
_ add basic guidelines for posting to the board
_ 0. be polite. going on about how much something "sucks" or is "stupid" will make you look like an eight-year-old.
_ 1. don't double (or triple) post
_ 2. if you're having trouble, first see the troubleshooting page
_ 3. if you have a bug, first search the bugs database
_ 4. first check the FAQ
_ 5. use the search bar at the top of every page
_ 6. read revisions.txt
_ someone wrote up an initial version of this
_ how to put [code] around blocks of code
_ also mention contributed plugin for formatting
_ also the reference page on the bb commands
_ i don't answer to instant messages
_ i don't answer email
_ use the bugs db instead of the bugs board
_ use the search box (not the forum search)
_ read the faq, read the faq
_ read the reference.. right-click on a word and choose "find in ref"
_ non-processing posts will be deleted (not a java discussion board)
_ no duplicate posts - find an area and post to
_ explanation of what the areas are
_ be sure to look at the reference, especially the extended reference
_ questions like 'how do i do x' are often solved by looking at the api
_ for instance, to get the framerate, use framerate()

_ make history folder, and a zip (not gz) file for each entry
_ history causing trouble - super slow with a huge sketch
_ could instead be gzipped and appended to history.dat

_ no need to make the thing a gzip stream
_ checkbox on menu for 'record history' ?
_ history converter option?

_ code is already in, need to add window and test with multi-monitor setup
_ some code already written in PresentMode.java
_ option in preferences to set the jvm used to run? (osx only?)

_ /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.3.1/Commands/java
_ /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.4.2/Commands/java
_ /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.5.0/Commands/java
_ canonical path for
_ /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/CurrentJDK
_ will return 1.5.0 (or maybe 1.6 for others?)
PDE / Runner
_ draw mode apps do not shut off the run button when finished
_ need to talk to VM and read when 'finished' var is set
_ does closing the window call stop()?
_ need to make sure hitting stop button and closing window explicitly call
_ set finished to true, then join() the animation thread
_ stop() not working very well
_ as a result, dispose() methods aren't being called on libraries
_ http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=77
_ quitting from present mode doesn't kill run button
_ http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=80
X when running externally, set window frame title to the sketch name
X is this only a problem on macosx?
_ need to set dock icon title on osx
PDE / Sketch & Sketchbook
_ don't reload sketch on "save as"
_ this can result in loss of data (undo is lost)
_ http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=433
_ ArticulatePrint-070103a.pde from ArticulatePrint-070103a loads ok
_ but when opening the sketch, it leaves out the file
_ because there's a dash in the name
_ and instead only loads StemCell.pde
_ show progress dialog during export and save
_ slow save/new because of large sketchbook
_ this is a total cluster, the rebuild is being called incessantly
_ startup is very slow on g4
_ show progress bar while rebuilding sketch menu?
_ http://processing.org/discourse/yabb_beta/YaBB.cgi?board=SoftwareBugs;action=display;num=1162801212
_ http://processing.org/discourse/yabb_beta/YaBB.cgi?board=SoftwareBugs;action=display;num=1141126582
_ even more of a problem becase set modified set true all the time
_ in 0125, only rebuilding on rename or save as, but still a problem
_ don't re-scan all jar files whenever rebuilding sketch menu (cache)
_ http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=579
_ in rebuild sketch menu - disable subfolders working as libraries
_ if a sketch, don't allow subfolders
o or maybe just that libraries must be in the root?
o nah, cuz that would mean can't make subfolder called "libraries"
_ is the 'hide' option for code dumb? i've never used it
_ should it just hide the code, not actually remove it?
_ do we finish the tabs thing for 1.0? yes
_ could probably be done in a reasonable simple way.. ala eclipse
_ show additional tabs in the dropdown list? show all?
_ robert's tunnel example, why does tunnel not show up as leftmost tab?
_ hitting ESC on "create this, move file, continue" opened anyway
_ may need a progress bar for "save as"
_ or just the file copy function in general
_ since it may take a long time (i.e. 1000s of screen grabs)
_ http://processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=82
_ "save as" shouldn't always show save as dialog
_ unless that's the current mode that's being used
_ http://processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=83
_ handle renaming with case changes (currently ignores case change)
_ see notes/bitching in Sketch.nameCode()
_ http://processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=85
_ setting sketchbook to a folder on a network mounted drive
_ does this work? test on both on mac and pc..
_ or if not, should recommend people against it
_ (i.e. folders disappearing if net has trouble)
_ http://processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=87
_ some type of sketch archive format for posting examples (.psk?)
_ would be nice to open a sketch directly from a zip file
_ http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=88
_ maybe just open from a zip file, since psk doesn't help anything
_ also have a means of importing sketches

TOOLS / Create Font
_ loading is very slow on the first time (getting all font names)
_ create the tool object on startup, then use thread to getAllFonts()
_ show a progress/status bar while it's happening?
_ (would be useful to at least tell user that system not locked up)
_ create font with user-specified charsets
_ may help solve: http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=98
_ when resizing window, only resize the text display area
_ just a matter of moving around the panels and BorderLayout
_ remember previous font selection when returning to the window

_ should be using a menu factory to create menubar for all sub-windows
_ http://developer.apple.com/technotes/tn/tn2042.html
_ and the general warning dialogs are just ass ugly
_ (i.e. we really need those replacements for JOptionPane)
_ track down error in PdeCompiler for message parsing

_ can comment out /System/Library/ as a test
_ put stdout/stderr into ~/Library/Logs

LATER
_ rename location is awkward, do it on the tab?
_ method of including/excluding data files in the JAR
_ or at least a boolean for the whole folder?
_ should open() not return a Process object? (exec() instead?)
_ pro: can write out error messages (or output)
_ con: loses cross platform ability
_ but: open() is platform specific anyway, ppl can use exec()
