Hello
I met what appears to be an odd behaviour.
If I have a variable named source containing a pathname (class alias)
tell application "Finder" to set dossier to (container of source)
as Unicode text
works well but
tell application "System Events" to set dossier to (container of
source) as Unicode text
doesn't.
Error message:
Impossible de transformer «class cfol» "Macintosh
HD:Users:yvankoenig:Desktop:" of application "System Events" en
Unicode text.
Is it a normal behaviour ?
System Events does not proceed with coercions and directly provides
the path as a property of disk items; this holds for both the "Mac
style" path and the posix path:
tell application "System Events" to set dossier to path of (container
of source)
tell application "System Events" to set dossier to posix path of
(container of source)
HTH,
Axel _______________________________________________
