Hi guys!
just a small question
Im triyng to save some data in Google drive with an Wifi shield but I wan to know if i can put a JAR (or his code)
(like this guy)
into a normal sketch
thanks four your answer! thanks!
Hi,
I can see where the article might create a bit of confusion as the Processing environment (running on the PC) uses the same terminology in a lot of cases (eg calling programs "sketches") as the Arduino environment. There's a good reason for that being Arduino's IDE and programming language while a flavour of C, is actually developed from Processing. If you load Processing you'll immediately feel at home in the very familiar looking IDE as a consequence 
That article is not talking about anything on the Arduino that I can see. It mentions a previous article where sensor readings from a light sensor are reported serially to the PC into Processing. From that point, the story is all about setting up Processing on your PC to write to a spreadsheet on Google drive, not doing so directly from Arduino.
Java libraries aren't useful in your Arduino sketch, so you'll need to do all those steps on a connected PC. Alternatively you could do it with a small embedded system like a Raspberry Pi attached to your Arduino to keep the size & power consumption down.
Hope that makes senses, cheers ! Geoff
THanks!
