new SyphonClient(this, "Simple Server");

Sorry to spam :)

In the default examples this never worked for me in ReceiveFrames:

client = new SyphonClient(this, "Simple Server");

Also this makes it look like a line is missing after the 'both:'

  // A Syphon server can be specified by the name of the application that it contains it,
  // its name, or both:

  // Only application name.
  //client = new SyphonClient(this, "SendFrames");

sorry i didn't report earlier

it's working for me (OSX 10.9.3, library built from the repo). What version are you using, the RC1 from googlecode?

[clankill3r]

yeah Processing Syphon library 1.0-RC1 Also 10.9.3.

To what do you change:

client = new SyphonClient(this, "Simple Server"); ?

Cause there is no example called "Simple Server", neither a server with that name.

"Simple Server" is the sample app included in the Simple Server/Client pair listed in the syphon page:

If you pass an empty string, it should match any server

new SyphonClient(this, "");

@bangnoise thanks for bringing the heads up, I just removed the empty string check that triggered a runtime exception in the client code.

Damn, why didn't i think of it being the app...
