I’m not able to install Android Mode. It says 4.5.0a5 not compatible. I have Processing 4.0b7. I don’t see any later versions on Processing’s download page.

By the moment, the newest version compatible with the last version of android mode is processing V4.3.4.
So :
-Install processing V4.3.4 (search for ancient version on the site)

  • Open processing and load android mode.

Take care that you could not generate apk or install on device until you created a set of icons
located in the main folder of your program.

Note also that some libraries does not function in android mode even official ones like sound.

I tried the last version of processing 4.4.7 with the hope it would by miracle solve this problem. No it is not for this time… The last version of processing compatible with android mode still be V4.3.3.4

Hope a new version of android for processing will solve all the problems. As we say in french “l’espoir fait vivre”.

The new processing is arrived (just before the famous french “beaujolais nouveau”).

tests with processing V4.4.8

android mode V4.6.1

sound unit V2.4.0

I tried at once if the problem of android mode with sound unit

THe program :

import processing.sound.*;

void setup() {
Sound.list();
}

The result of compilation:

Exception in thread “Thread-12” java.lang.NullPointerException: Cannot read the array length because “list” is null
at processing.app.Library.wrapFiles(Library.java:429)
at processing.app.Library.getApplicationExports(Library.java:439)

as could have sung paul simon about the problem

“That was planted..

In my.. computer…

Still remain…s.

In a word sniff … still waiting for an update of sound unit or android new version…

I will tried a compilation with an exemple not using sound unit.
