List folder crashing bug


  • Subject: List folder crashing bug
  • From: Steven Angier <email@hidden>

List folder will intermittently crash the caller when given a file instead
of a folder (either a path string, file or alias). Try this:

repeat 10 times
list folder "path to a file somewhere"
end

I realise that list folder isn't meant to be passed a file, but that brings
up a separate point about the ever-changing coercion to alias behaviour. In
any case, an error would be nicer than a crash.

Mac OS X 10.2.4 / AppleScript 1.9.1
