Hey Francisco,

there are two ways that I use to connect ghx with processing, depending on amount of data send from one program to another :

1. for lower amount of data I'm using user data protocol (or more often known as UDP) - for this option you will have a character limit that you can send trough from one program to another

2. for higher amount of data I'm using string export functions ... create a .txt file from processing/ghx or ghx/processing ...and read it in ghx or processing ...of course this has it's own disadvantages. UDP is a real-time connection, the second method is not really a real-time connection.. because your computer has to write the .txt and afterwords read it, which if you have a big amount of data to send , it might slow down your program because of write/read operations

How do you combine processing with grasshoper?
