I know I'm not the first to report this, but does anyone have a solution to the problem of not being able to run a script application stored as a bundle in Jaguar?
If you make such a beast in Tiger and then try to run the application Jaguar, you get the following error:
"could not run the script "applet" because of a program error" (1392)
The application runs, but the script inside it won't.
I have a script application that I want to run natively on Intel Macs - I can achieve this by saving it as an application bundle, which produces a universal binary. However, this means that the application won't run in Jaguar. Is there another solution other than having two versions of my script application?
No. No other solution - except having only one version which is not a bundle. Chris answered that one definitively when I asked, as I expect you saw. You can run a Carbon application on Intel Macs with no problem - it runs in Rosetta, and no one will notice the difference. (If it uses any osax, they mist be universal or PPC, of course.) In a few years time when you decide you can stop supporting Jaguar (I'm pretty near that point already myself), convert it to a bundle then.
