I'm trying to get Arduino and Processing to talk, but when working on solving the issue for Processing, I lose the ability to upload sketches from the Arduino IDE. If I remove the librxtxSerial.jnilib / RXTXcomm.jar from the Library/Java/Extensions folder, upload crash goes away, but i get a library mismatch error in processing.
OSx 10.6.7 / Diecimila / latest versions on Arduino and Processing
writing this down for anyone else with the same problem.
librxtxSerial.jnilib / RXTXcomm.jar causes a problem with Arduino, and it will crash when it in the Library/Java/Extensions folder, it doesn't need to be there - the warning message in Processing is just a warning, it will work otherwise. i had other syntax and logic errors that was causing my project not to work. ie - marking the ending of a packet with "*" on the processing side, but a "A" on the Arduino proves itself to make troubles. they have to match -- Good luck
