Hey all,
I have a GUI script (using System Events) that fails very
intermittently. On average, I'd say that the script fails once every
300 times it runs. The script is pretty big; it enters values into 50
or so fields and clicks various radio buttons and tabs and dismisses
dialogs; on each iteration it does all of these things.
In an effort to debug this thing once and for all I'm running the
script manually (through several hundred iterations) using Script
Debugger with the Apple Event Log window open and logging All Events
and Replies. My problem is that when the Apple Event Log window is
open Script Debugger begins to run slowly after a hundred or so
iterations and I'm afraid that this slowdown is affecting my results.
Is there a way to automatically log all apple events (as well as all
log AppleScript commands) to a file rather than displaying them
onscreen? I realize that this is a drastic debug measure, but I'm at
the point where I need all the data I can get from this script without
significantly altering it.
I appreciate any help you can offer.
Thanks,
Zack
