application file of remote app broken


  • Subject: application file of remote app broken
  • From: Steve Roy <email@hidden>
  • Date: Fri, 10 Oct 2003 12:36:38 -0400

Here's something weird:

tell application "System Events" of machine "eppc://some.valid.address"
using terms from application "System Events"
application file of first application process
--> alias "Beautyloginwindow.app"
end using terms from
end tell

The alias returned is completely invalid. I also tried 'file' instead of
'application file', as well as "Finder" instead of "System Events", and
they all return the same bogus alias.

Does anyone know of a workaround for this?

Steve
