PROCESSING 3.2.1 (REV 0253) - 19 August 2016

Fixes for a couple major bugs that showed up in the last release.


[ fixes ]

+ "Could not replace preferences.old" error message on startup 
  when using Processing for the first time.
  https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/4626

+ Version 3.2 won't run from paths with spaces on Windows
  https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/4623

+ Python Mode was crashing on startup


[ additions ]

+ When quitting an OS X sketch, sometimes it was necessary to quit
  twice. Added some code to work around this; we'll see how it goes.

processing-0252-3.2

PROCESSING 3.2 (REV 0252) - 16 August 2016

This release includes a handful of fixes to deal with startup bugs, 
plus several internal changes for how Modes are implemented.

For those semantic versioning enthusiasts keeping track at home, the version
has been bumped from 3.1.x to 3.2.x to denote the internal API changes.

  version as preferences.old)
  https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/4614

+ Some Table cleanup based on other CSV parsing work

+ Can't render PGraphics object using image() within a PDF
  https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/4473

+ Make loadStrings() and loadJSONObject/loadJSONArray() error msgs consistent
  https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/4265
  https://github.com/processing/processing/pull/4268


[ changes ]

+ Implement template sketches
  https://github.com/processing/processing/wiki/Templates
  https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/4306
  https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/4352

  https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/4606

+ Change default PdeInputHandler constructor slightly (added another
  copy so that older Modes will still work properly)

+ Change PdeKeywords to PdeTokenMarker (please notify us if this 
  breaks anything).

+ Added Mode.requireExampleCompatibility() so that Modes can specify
  whether example packages should specifically mention their Mode
  in order to be visible when that Mode is in use.

+ Mode.getTokenMarker(SketchCode code) passes through to 
  no arg version if not overridden.

PROCESSING 3.1.2 (REV 0251) - 29 July 2016

Happy Fathom Fiesta Day! We'll be taking the afternoon off to enjoy 
the summer, maybe you should take the afternoon off and dive into 
a new Processing release?


[ pde fixes ] 

+ NullPointerException in LanguageBundle.read() on startup that prevented
  Processing from starting up on Windows machines. Network drive issue.
  https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/4417
  https://github.com/processing/processing/pull/4582
  https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/4476

+ Bring back preference to hide the error checking. Error checking will 
  continue in the background because it's needed for parsing/preprocessing,
  but some were complaining about the error checker messages.
  https://github.com/processing/processing/pull/4491
  https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/4485

+ Updates to Japanese translation
  https://github.com/processing/processing/pull/4564

+ Make preferences button wider for Japanese
  https://github.com/processing/processing/pull/4558

+ Fix logic for warning message when the Mode cannot be changed
  https://github.com/processing/processing/pull/4559

+ Update to Java 8u102 build 14


[ api fixes ] 

+ Rewrite CSV handling to take care of some parsing bugs and improve
  performance. Note that the 'newlines' option is no longer necessary 
  when loading files that contain newline characters mid-field.

+ Prevent random(low, high) from returning 'high'
  https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/4551

+ Fixed iterator remove() methods so they don't skip container elements
  https://github.com/processing/processing/pull/4519

+ Added a check for length 0 arrays in expand()
  https://github.com/processing/processing/pull/4520


[ graphics ] 

+ Disable asynchronous saveFrame() by default. This can really improve
  performance, but can cause weird glitches. Bring it back by using
  hint(ENABLE_ASYNC_SAVEFRAME) in your code to blissfully and speedily
  create image sequences. 
  https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/4578

+ Prevent NPE in loadImage() when called before setup()
  https://github.com/processing/processing/pull/4505

+ Fix crash when calling getUniformLoc() called in PShader.set()
  https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/4542


[ raspberry pi ]

+ IO: Fix drawing for SPIAnalogDigital examples
  https://github.com/processing/processing/pull/4480

+ Update JVM warning text on Linux
  https://github.com/processing/processing/pull/4512

+ Undo the 8u91 workaround, add Mesa warning for ARM
  https://github.com/processing/processing/pull/4508

+ IO: We want motors, they said (implements SoftwareServo)
  https://github.com/processing/processing/pull/4546

+ Add a temporary workaround for the CHIP to deal with cursor problems
  https://github.com/processing/processing/pull/4554

+ Fix GLExceptions on Raspberry Pi when using offscreen PGraphics 
  https://github.com/processing/processing/pull/4524


[ fixed earlier ] 

+ Debugger deadlocks when choosing "Step Into" on println()
  https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/3923

+ Suggestions switch scope to first import
  https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/4016

+ loadImage() immediately after saveFrame() foiled by async default
  https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/4218
  the hint() mostly works, but gross to use a hint frequently

+ Fix the Downloader so that builds work again
  https://github.com/processing/processing/issues/4496
  https://github.com/processing/processing/pull/4511

PROCESSING 3.0b7 (REV 0245) - 22 September 2015

It's 8:57pm and Jakub and Ben are still holed up at Fathom's studio in Boston.
Ben is wishing he was Jakub's age, as his wrists, neck, and back all feel 
like a bag of broken pretzels after several hours/days/weeks/months of coding. 
A bleary-eyed Jakub emerges from deep inside the error checker and completion 
code, removes his headphones and grunts, "I think it's working."

processing-0244-3.0b6

PROCESSING 3.0b6 (REV 0244) - 11 September 2015

And I beheld when he had released the sixth beta, and, lo, there was 
a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, 
and the moon became as blood.

Aside from bug fixes, the FX2D renderer has received a lot of attention. 
On the plus side, it's working really well. On the minus side, we're giving
up on making it the default for 3.0. The underlying JavaFX technology it uses
is just not ready for our use. It is, however, super fast and makes great
looking 2D sketches on retina devices. But it can be a little balky so we
don't want it to be the first experience that beginners have with Processing.
Especially if you're doing 2D on a retina Mac, you should definitely try FX2D. 
We're at the limit of what we can do performance-wise with the default 
(JAVA2D) renderer, so if you're having performance problems, try FX2D.
