I have files the following Bug to request some enhancements to the
Internet Connect application scripting.
I believe that the more bug files to this effect the better (this is
partly how enhancements, and in general bugs, are prioritised)
If you are interested please file a bug (referring to the bug id below).
If you have extra feature requests add them!
Thanks
Giuliano
BUG ID 2891331
Since the AirPort API is not accessible for creating and joining
wireless networks, the only way to access these features from a
programme is to have the API available via scripting, thus:
Please add the following verbs and classes to the scripting
dictionary (and make them work!)
(Note: these are taken from the Airport Scripting application from
MacOS9/Classic Airport)
join: Join a wireless network
join reference -- the network to join
[with password string] -- the password for this network
scan: Scan for wireless networks
scan
[noMerge boolean] -- true to return all network names
create: Create a network
create reference -- the network to create
Class network: A wireless network
Plural form:
networks
Properties:
name string -- the name of the network
encrypted boolean -- true if the network is encrypted (using WEP)
channel small integer -- channel the network is on
noise level small integer [r/o] -- noise on the network
signal level small integer [r/o] -- signal level of the network
type SWAP/IBSS -- the type of network
isIBSS boolean [r/o] -- true if the network is an IBSS
password string -- password for the SWAP or IBSS network
Also please fix the current scripting: in particular it seems that
most properties of the AirPort configurations Class cannot be read.
