openFrameworks creative coding: Text manipulation

Session 5 • Introduction to text processing using #openframeworks for #creativecoding see also • oF_root/examples/strings/sortingExample & regularExpressionExample • oF_root/examples/input_output/loadTextFileExample & imageLoaderWebExample portions modified from oF sortingExample Learning Objectives This example demonstrates how to sort a vector alphabetically, by word length or by word occurence. It shows you how to.. load words from a file into a vector create custom sorting functions sort the vector using the function ofSort() view text in 3D with easyCam load text from file using fileDialog load text from a remote URL on the web also This openFrameworks example demonstrates how to load a txt file from the web In this example, pay attention to the following code: Request to load an image using ofLoadURLAsync which passes the url, and a name for the request Handle the response from the request using void ofApp::urlResponse Determine information about the fullfilled request by inspecting the status code response.status and the request name response.request.name On exit of the application, unregister the application from being notified of the URL request completion using ofUnregisterURLNotification Expected Behavior When launching this app, you should see a screen with words circularly arranged on the right side. Instructions for use: Press keys from 1 to 4 to switch sorting algorithms. press l to open file dialog to lad text file from disk press w to load a txt file from the web at a remote url press b to autorotate the circle in 3d press f to toggle fullscreen display Other classes used in this file This Example uses the following classes: http://openframeworks.cc/documentation/graphics/ofTrueTypeFont/ http://openframeworks.cc/documentation/utils/ofUtils/ Part of a series of tutorials in using the openFrameworks C++ creative coding toolkit.
