Re: Getting the results out of Applescript

I suppose it could well be.  I have to admit that on the whole I have relatively little experience with Cocoa (this is sort of a started project for me!).

Basically, I have theResult which is the result of executing an NSApplescript.  I was then using the following:

NSLog("Result: %d", [theResult stringValue])

This way I figured I could just look at the result in the log window.  Does this mean that I'm actually just using NSLog incorrectly?  Have I misunderstood the way this is used, and so in fact I should really be using something other than %d?

Either way, muchos gracias for the help!

With a lot of experimentation, I have been able to get both integers and booleans to work.  However, still every time I try to do

[theResult stringValue]

I just get a large, random number.  I've found plenty of examples on the Web using this stringValue method, but no mention of the problem I'm having.

Is the 'large random number' actually a pointer to the string object by any chance? How are you displaying its value?
