Hi,
I have this small part of a large script that when by it’s self it works.
But when as part of the larger script I get the error “The variable processlist is not defined”.
It is used several times and only fails late in the script.
I have rebooted and restarted Smile and Script Editor several times.
Any ideas?
<script>
tell application "System Events"
delay 0.3
set processlist to name of every process
delay 0.3
if processlist does not contain "Skype" then
repeat while processlist does not contain "Skype"
tell application "Skype" to launch
delay 0.3
set processlist to name of every process
end repeat
end if # does not contain "Skype"
end tell # System Events
beep
</script>
TIA,

I don't like to change the value used by a test in the code with it drives. Assuming that processlist must be used later I would code :
<script> tell application "System Events" delay 0.3 set processlist to name of every process delay 0.3 if processlist does not contain "Skype" then repeat tell application "Skype" to launch delay 0.3 set processlist to name of every process if processlist contains "Skype" then exit repeat end repeat end if #processlist doesn't contain… end tell # System Events beep </script>
As I dislike to encapsulate a tell to an application into a tell to an other one, I would edit as :
<script> tell application "System Events" delay 0.3 set processlist to name of every process end tell # System Events delay 0.3 if processlist does not contain "Skype" then repeat tell application "Skype" to launch tell application "System Events" delay 0.3 set processlist to name of every process end tell # System Events if processlist contains "Skype" then exit repeat end repeat end if #processlist doesn't contain… beep </script>
