Error Loading Shader in Android Studio

Processing for Android
1

Hello,

My code snippet is below.

First off just in case it is relevant, I moved my .glsl file to the main res folder to get around an error with having path separators in the file name.

It seems to accept that now but throws the following error now and I can’t figure out what the issue is, Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Welcome to the forums! In the future, please use the </> button to format your code snippets.

While you declare detect up top, you never actually assign it with loadShader()!
Check out the loadShader() example.

add use of

test1 = loadImage("/storage/emulated/0/DCIM/Testimg/pic 10.jpg");

inside of draw
should be avoided,
please better move to setup().

? and how about show it with

image(test1,x,y);

in draw()?
