Untested (untestable) 0.3

I’ve finally had time to sit down and finish my 0.3 release.  It’s way late and I know I have several people waiting on parts of this release.  Andor has mentioned in several of his posts the reason as to why this release is untested or untestable.  I wish I could’ve had time to get [...]

Obsolete already?!

My most recent addition to Processing.js can already be considered obsolete.  Not even two weeks after the release, my fifteen minutes of fame will be coming to an end.  This is due to someone coming along with a better and cleaner implementation.  This may seem like a disgruntled post but it really is more of [...]

Flimsy 0.2 Release

… not to mention late.  I was making promises for this release that I didn’t keep.  I was hoping to finish some other functions, but for now all I was able to do was complete PVector.  Hence, the name of this new post being “flimsy”.  Basically, I was stuck and I didn’t follow through on [...]

Introducing the new PJS Object: PVector!

Well technically, I’ve already talked about this object a couple of times week alone.  There were some major issues with some of my code.  Mainly, certain parts just stopped working while I was trying to implement it from it’s lone source to the actual processing.js hub.  With a lot of help from Al (AKA F1LT3R),  [...]

More like release week!

I was a little presumptuous on my last post, thinking that the due date for this first release was on Monday.  I didn’t see the “week of” part on the due date.  Well that means I’m somewhat ahead of the curve.  I’ve got my working object in javascript and I’ve got the link to the [...]

0.1 Release Day!

So I’ve fallen back into old bad habits… basically, my previously closed source ways.  I procrastinated and failed to follow the mantra:  “Release early, release often”.  I did finish my object, without too much testing done, however.  I’ll give you some sample code from the actual object and then upload the code itself at the [...]

PVector – Initial Project Plan

What is Processing.js? Well to sum it up in one line, Processing.js is a Javascript port from the original Processing program written in Java.  That, however, doesn’t specify what Processing is.  Here is an excerpt from the main Processing page: Processing is an open source programming language and environment for people who want to program [...]

Firefox Build cont.

Alright, when I left off yesterday, I was having trouble with the libnotify library.  Dave was kind enough to give me direction on how to continue with my build.  He provided me with the library name I needed to install.  I was able to continue by putting in the following command: yum install libnotify-devel And [...]

Firefox Build

To start this build, I downloaded VirtualBox.  I figured I wouldn’t use Linux as an OS too frequently; mostly just to build stuff for this course.  So, I didn’t want to install it as a separate partition on my HD.  It was mentioned in class that a build on Linux on a virtual machine was [...]

Catching Up

So I’ve fallen behind on some of my work.   I’ve been busy with some other school projects.  This means the list I’ve whittled down last week has grown considerably large again.
