((LXStudio-IDE)) java: package processing.core does not exist #5

Closed nargetdev closed 2 years ago

nargetdev commented 2 years ago

Setup

From a clean clone. Have tried Ubuntu and Mac OS X

Runs fine on both platforms on checkout of tag 0.4.1

nargetdev commented 2 years ago

Able to get them in by explicitly specifying system paths in pom.xml

        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.processing</groupId>
            <artifactId>core</artifactId>
            <version>4.0b8</version>
<!--            <scope>provided</scope>-->
            <scope>system</scope>
            <systemPath>/Users/myuser/LXStudio-IDE/lib/processing-4.0b8/core-4.0b8.jar</systemPath>
        </dependency>

This should be solvable by running mvn validate once, as described in the README section on configuring runtime: https://github.com/heronarts/LXStudio-IDE#configure-your-runtime

That will install the Processing dependencies to your local maven repository. Should only need to be done once upfront.

I just saw that bit.

I also had to do a couple other odd things to get it working.

On Ubuntu (but not mac OS) the Java compiler version was preset to "1.5" rather than 17 which is deep in the settings..

Note, on Ubuntu... I also had to symlink the lib up to natives folder at the root??

# at content root /path/to/LXStudio-IDE
mkdir -p ./natives
ln -sf $(pwd)/lib/processing-4.0.1/linux-amd64 natives

Anyways I'm running now but for whatever reason it took a lot of hacking.

Ah, interesting, not sure about defaulting to 1.5. I usually use Eclipse so haven't seen that, possible that not all the IntelliJ settings are stored in the stock LXStudio-IDE project.

As for the natives link, it depends how you're passing the -Djava.library.path argument and where the java command is being executed from. Those two things need to line up properly, looks in your case maybe it's being passed as -Dnatives and running from your root folder.

I have a future version of all this stuff that I'm hoping to get out in the coming months which will turn all of this into a standalone app without all the IDE config and building pain. Stay tuned for that... in the meantime glad you got this sorted.
