Steve,

This is message I sent earlier with new findings:

After I deleted "Smart Crash Reports.bundle" in /Library/ InputManagers/, I rebooted, went to AS Studio to see if there were any problems, and guess what ? The Debugger started working. It's been broken as long as I can remember. Every time I've wanted to learn how to work with AS Studio since it came out, the Debugger has never worked, and I always ended up moving on to something else.

This is awesome...

Hi Bill.

Make sure you're building a debug version of the project in order for breakpoints to work. In Xcode you set this with Project > Set Active Build Configuration > Debug .

This was the very first thing I checked the other day when I started trying to learn AS Studio in earnest.



Also I don't think those messages you are seeing about Smart Crash REports.bundle actually indicate that the app has crashed; it's just reporting that it can't load this bundle for some reason, and then proceeding anyway - I don't see anything that indicates your app has crashed.

I read a long article at : http://daringfireball.net/2006/01/ smart_crash_reports


and came away without a real solution. It was close to 3 am so I was barely awake, but came away confused as to what the solution was. I had used Unsanity's products particularly the menu product, but they caused too many problems with Quickeys and 4th Dimension. After talking to the people that write Quickeys, I disabled all their stuff and everything started working fine with Quickeys and 4D. They are far more important for me, that the Unsanity stuff.

I agree with the Daring Fireball article, and am annoyed that Unsanity patches the OS without asking for permission. I won't buy their products any more.


That bundle is something that certain third-party applications install which attempts to email crash reports for their apps back to their authors, rather than to Apple. I don't know what app you might have installed that included this but it would probably be safe to remove the bundle. (Double clicking on it wouldn't do anything; it's not intended to be double clicked; it just sits there and waits to be loaded.)

After I wrote the original message I realized that it wasn't double clickable, but by then it was too late. I think it was probably Unsanity's APE, or FruitMenu.If you look at /Library/InputManagers/ there's an "info" file, and a "Smart Crash Reports.bundle". I just deleted both of them, if it causes a problem I'll copy them from another machine that doesn't have it. I'm not sure but I believe they patch the original one from Apple. I'm not sure if that is correct?

Wizards,

I have documented some AppleScript Studio problems that I have encountered, along with some screenshots.

Hopefully somebody might have a clue what is causing the problems.
