this code:

to getParentOf(path)
	set AppleScript's text item delimiters to "/"
	try
		set pPath to text items 2 thru -2 of path
		set pPath to pPath as string
	end try
	set AppleScript's text item delimiters to ""
	return pPath
end getParentOf

script etvClass
	property parent : recClass

	to parseInfo(interactive)
		set eyeBundle to getParentOf(my fileName)

give this error:

	(*«script» doesn't understand the getParentOf message.*)

obviously i'm ignorant of the finer points of applescript scoping...

Hello Tom,

As Ed already noticed, you don't help us very much. ;-)
Anyway, the following piece of code could provide you with some clues about the error message:


	on getParentOf(path)
		return "+ " & path & " +"
	end getParentOf

	script recClass
		property parent : application "Finder"
	end script

	script etvClass
		property parent : recClass
		property fileName : "initial value"
		on parseInfo(interactive)
			set eyeBundle to getParentOf(my fileName)
		end parseInfo
	end script

	etvClass's parseInfo(true)

Running the above yields an error similar to the one you are encountering (it is interesting to have a look at the events log).
Now, comment out the
property parent : application "Finder"
line, and everything should be working as expected.


HTH,
Axel
