Creating a custom renderer #64
Description
Moved from processing/processing#2390
Hi there, just working on something that will resolve the problems SMT was having with the latest version of processing - a custom renderer. I have it working fully on the desktop on Windows and Linux ( can't test on mac ). I ran into a problem on Android however.
This works on the desktop:
void setup(){
size( 800, 600, Renderer.class.getName());
}
void draw(){
background( 30);
fill( 200, 100, 100, 200);
noStroke();
rect( 10, 10, 100, 100);
}
/*
public int sketchWidth() {
return 800;
}
public int sketchHeight() {
return 600;
}
public String sketchRenderer() {
return Renderer.class.getName();
}
*/
public static class Renderer extends PGraphics3D {
public Renderer(){
super();}
}However this fails on android:
void setup(){
//size( 800, 600, Renderer.class.getName());
}
void draw(){
background( 30);
fill( 200, 100, 100, 200);
noStroke();
rect( 10, 10, 100, 100);
}
public int sketchWidth() {
return 800;
}
public int sketchHeight() {
return 600;
}
public String sketchRenderer() {
return Renderer.class.getName();
}
public static class Renderer extends PGraphics3D {
public Renderer(){
super();}
}With the following logcat output:

Help of any kind would be nice. Advice as to where to look and the like would be great.

Take a look around line
470ofprocessing.core.PApplet:Then, a little bit later:
There is simply no code to accommodate for a custom renderer. I don't know what steps would be necessary to get around this... but this should be enough to get you going in the right direction.

:S Thanks, I had a feeling this was the case, but didn't know where to look. I'll take a look to see if it can be worked around tomorrow, but I'm not optimistic :(.
