The following source code demonstrates Java2d graphics on the default Processing canvas using Java’s Class BufferStrategy, documented here: https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/awt/image/BufferStrategy.html . The demo works only with the default renderer and supports Graphics as well as Graphics2D. It is run from Processing’s setup() in this demo and may also be run from the draw() loop, but experiences occasional flickers when using the latter technique. Processing’s draw() is non-functional when using the technique below.
