HI:
i seem to inadvertently be causing my applescript to invoke the mac os 9
version of URL Access Scripting instead
of the app version. I tried to cause the applescript editor to prompt me for
the correct one by misspelling the
the name but even this does not work. i am running under os x 10.2.
I launch daily scripts that use URLAS and I had the exactly same
systematic problem until I started calling the app by its full path.
I ask Finder "application file id theCreator" then I say "tell
application theFullPath". I have to use the raw codes, it's not the
most pleasant part of it. If it's important I can send my handlers.
(I must confess that my script still checks "manually" that
"application file id theCreator" returns the OSX app. :-)
I've never tried Rob's solution - I try to keep my "System Folder"
in a working state.
I agree with Emmanuel on both counts. I've never tried it either, and
I should have clarified that hiding the OS 9 version is only an
attempt to force the script to look for the OS X version during a
recompile. Since I run only OS X, I haven't been faced with the issue
and I am unable to test suggestions. I advised Steven (back channel)
that my suggestion should be considered only as a last resort.
Is this undesired behavior limited to a particular type of script
(application, compiled, etc.)?
