Processing Download

This is a cold backup of the legacy dependency files used for building Processing.

Warning

This repository does NOT and SHOULD NOT directly serve NOR continuously deploy files to download.processing.org.

Note

Larger files are stored on GitHub using Git LFS.

Context

To build Processing, the build system downloads various dependencies, such as OpenJDK and OpenJFX, as specified in the build.xml file. Historically, some of these dependencies have been hosted on a server accessible via stable urls at download.processing.org. This was set up as a fallback solution, in case any of those files end up no longer being hosted by their original distributors.

Purpose

This repository acts as an archival backup for these files. Its primary role is to ensure a copy of these dependencies is available if needed (for example, in case we need to deploy a new download server).
