I've been struggling with remote AppleEvents for two weeks now and am
beginning to suspect that they're just not ready for prime time. The
latest snafu is that the first time a script sends messages to a remote
application (running on OS 10.3.4) it works, if and only if, the remote
application was just launched. If however the app is already running,
you run a script from another machine, quit the script, relaunch it and
try again, no go.
I also wrote the Application the scripts are sending the messages to
(in Cocoa) and put log messages to flag when a message has arrived at
an event handler so can say for a fact that on second, third, fourth
attempts running the scripts, the messages never even make it to the
application.
Has anyone ever used remote AppleEvents in a professional setting on a
real corporate network with a mixture of OS versions? (9.x & 10.3.x) If
so, what's your secret? I have about eight years of professional
AppleScript experience and I can't get these remote events working.
Thanks,
Ken
