Hey Shane,
You mean in the Finder?
<snip>
exists (get POSIX file posixPath)
--> Finder got an error: Can’t get POSIX file "/Users/chris/test_directory/test".
end tell
I’ve noticed similar behavior with other apps. If you pass the “command” as in : exists (POSIX file posixPath) The command will fail, meaning it will not return what you expect. However, declaring a variable before as in set pp to POSIX file posixPath exists pp will always work. The “get” inside the first command will always error. Deivy Petrescu
What you get is perfectly normal and logical.
POSIX file belongs to the Osax Standard Additions so it's not supposed to be called in a tell application block.
set posixPath to "what you want" tell application "Finder" exists (POSIX file posixPath) end tell
violate the rule and so it fails.
set posixPath to "what you want" tell application "Finder" exists (get POSIX file posixPath) end tell
violate the rule too and so it fails.
set posixPath to "what you want" tell application "Finder" tell me to (POSIX file posixPath) exists result end tell
apply the official workaround and so it works.
set posixPath to "what you want" (POSIX file posixPath) tell application "Finder" exists result end tell
apply a logical syntax and so it works.
Now, when we have a POSIX path, as System Events is aware of posix paths, isn't it more logical to use :
tell application "System Events" exists disk item posixPath end tell
