How to nicely install processing with linux

Initial installation to have processing run

As root you have to

  1.  Install the Sun JDK6 in a standard location, e.g. /usr/java
    1. Gets, e.g. jdk-6u21-linux-i586.bin, from http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html in /tmp
    2. Runs cd /usr/java ; /tmp/jdk-6u21-linux-i586.bin and follow instructions
  2. Install the processing files
    1. Gets, e.g. processing-1.4.2.1.tgz from http://processing.org/download
    2. Copy processing in a standard location, e.g. /usr/java
      1. tar xvzf processing-1.4.2.1.tgz ; mv processing-1.2.1 /usr/java ; /bin/rm processing-1.4.2.1.tgz
    3. Adapt the preferences to Linux (assuimg here you use firefox and gnome)
      1. sed -i 's/brower.linux *= .*/browser.linux = firefox/' /usr/java/processing-1.2.1/lib/preferences.txt
      2. sed -i 's/[#]?launcher.linux *= .*/launcher.linux = gnome-open/' /usr/java/processing-1.2.1/lib/preferences.txt
  3. Link the JDK6 to processing
    1. /bin/rm -rf /usr/java/processing-1.2.1/java ; ln -s /usr/java/jdk1.6.0_21 /usr/java/processing-1.2.1/java
  4. Install the proper sound librairies from the openjdk to the sunjdk (use locate libpulse-java.so to find the libraries in your system)
    1. cp /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.6.0-openjdk-1.6.0.0/jre/lib/i386/libpulse-java.so /usr/java/jdk1.6.0_21/jre/lib/i386/
    2. cp /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.6.0-openjdk-1.6.0.0/jre/lib/ext/pulse-java.jar /usr/java/jdk1.6.0_21/
  5. Optionnaly install additional librairies if needed in /usr/java/processing-1.2.1/librairies
