Processing: apply core patch and compile

Question

I want to apply this patch

into my own processing core for use in my PDE. How do I go about ?

i can take the source here

apply the patch compile that (eg using javac) to get a core.jar

But in the App, there are two core.jars :

Processing.app/Contents/Java/core/library/core.jar and Processing.app/Contents/Java/core.jar

which one is what ?

Did this:

read this howto

clone this repo

https://github.com/processing/processing

downloaded the correct version java

get an account at oracle.com and download java (in my case 8u202) here

and install that.

build the app with ant

Go into your cloned repo and

cd build
ant run

This builds a processing PDE in the build/ directory of your repo and opens it. It works.

apply the patch and build it again

git checkout -b pull/5881
git pull origin pull/5881/head
ant run

That creates a new branch, pulls the patch I wanted to apply, applies that, builds the PDE again and runs it.

And the patch fixed my problem :-)
