Does anybody else have this happen once in a while? I'll launch Script
Editor or Script Debugger, hit Record, go to a recordable app and do
stuff that gets recorded. Stop recording. Start recording again
(usually after Select All and delete). At this point, the app will
just sit there spinning the SPOD, like something in OSA or something
is hung or waiting for something to time out. Occasionally it will
eventually get around to recording again, but usually I have to force
quit Script Editor/Debugger. From then on, I'll always get the hang if
I try recording again. A reboot fixes it (haven't tried a log out).
Of course, the only app I can recall that I do any recording in is our
app, Creator. Is it possible that we're doing something that could
cause OSA to act this way? Our recordable actions are simple Apple
Events sent to ourself. We also catch the kAENotifyStartRecording and
kAENotifyStopRecording events, but I don't think that would cause OSA
to get horked up.
In Cocoa, you can get into trouble with using the return values for
directly-dispatched events, or using directly-dispatched events that
suspend themselves. Those are the only problems I've encountered or
heard about. If this might be your problem, you can try a little
library I wrote to help out with directly-dispatched events, at
