I have a script that is using System Events to puppet the user
interface in Citrix. Citrix mounts a remote version of windows on a
mac.
The script is launched from the Mac OS scripts menu, and works fine
when there is only one version of Citrix running. However, with
Citrix it is possible to launch multiple versions of the
applications and each version appears as a separate process, but
with the same process name.
The problem is the command
tell application "Citrix ICA Client" to activate
It always brings the Citrix process that was first launched to the
front, which may not be the one the user is trying work with.
Is it possible to first identify which Citrix Process is frontmost
and address the activate command to that process?
Hi Ed,
If it's at all possible, one way would be to use a do shell script:
ps -axwwopid,command|grep 'Citrix ICA Client'
to get the path of the clients and:
tell application "System Events" to {name, unix id} of (item 1 of
(every process whose frontmost is true))
to get the front process pid.
then you should be able to grab the path of the desired client out of
the 'ps' list by using the pid obtained from System Events.
Depending on how these processes are launched, it could be impossible
to get the one you need.
HTH,
