Short version: Where can I find documentation on the correct syntax
for 'using terms from'
Little bit longer version:
I'm having problems getting my script to compile, for instance, this
compiles:
using terms from application "Macintosh HD:System Folder:Control
Panels:File Sharing"
This doesn't:
set startupDisk to path to startup disk as string
set filesharingPath to startupDisk & "System Folder:Control
Panels:File Sharing"
using terms from application filesharingPath
And neither does this:
set startupDisk to path to startup disk as string
set filesharingPath to startupDisk & "System Folder:Control
Panels:File Sharing"
set filesharing to application filesharingPath
using terms from filesharing
Excruciatingly long version:
I am working on a AppleScript Studio System Setup utility for an IT
group.
They are using NetRestore to deploy a base system image and then
loading additional stuff on top using Radmind. The upshot is that the
Classic System Folder is not loaded as part of the base system image.
My utility sets a bunch of things up, configures some plists, etc,
one of the final things I need to do is set the Classic machine name
(for some legacy software) but because the Classic environment has
never been run when my utility launches I get stopped by the Choose
Application dialog looking for "File Sharing".
So I'd like to use 'using terms from' to explicitly specify it's
location. But I need to have it dynamic, I don't know the name of the
startup disk until run time.
Can anyone offer me a solution?
