Setup Question: prerequisites: core.jar and pde

[DrGuenter]

Hi there,
I try to setup the openCV processing stuff, since it looks great.
Unfortunately on my linux system I face two troubles - maybe correlating to eclipse...

A) I am not able to embed/include the core.jar
-> where is it located, where can I download?
B) I am not familiar with the extension "*pde"
-> what is it good for?
-> which setting is good for syntax highlighting in eclipse?
-> while googling, I found the "eclipse pde" stuff, does this correlate?
Or am I totally mistaken?

Thanks,
günter

OpenCV for Processing is setup (and the instructions) are written to be used in the Processing Development Environment. The extension ".pde" indicates files meant to be edited and run inside this Processing Development Environment. See here to download the PDE. As of version 0.4.2, OpenCV for Processing includes 32- and 64-bit binaries for OpenCV on Linux and has been tested in the Processing Development Environment on Linux.

You can also use Processing inside of Eclipse. Follow the instructions here.

I have never worked with OpenCV for Processing in this particular way, but I'm sure it is possible if you follow the instructions there.
