You could do it like this:
use framework "Foundation"
-- classes and constants used
property NSMutableArray : a reference to current application's NSMutableArray
property NSDictionary : a reference to current application's NSDictionary
set theDict to (NSDictionary's dictionaryWithContentsOfFile:"/Users/shane/Desktop/Sample.plist")
set theArray to NSMutableArray's array()
my addFileIDSIn:theDict toList:theArray
set theResult to theArray as list
on addFileIDSIn:aDict toList:theArray
set theIDs to aDict's valueForKey:"fileIDs"
theArray's addObjectsFromArray:theIDs
set theSublists to aDict's valueForKey:"sublists"
if theSublists is not missing value then
repeat with aSublist in theSublists
(my addFileIDSIn:aSublist toList:theArray)
end repeat
end if
end addFileIDSIn:toList:
oh damn, I sent this to the wrong list. Meant to send to the applescript list.
I have not got much experience with ASObjC. This works if I hard code the file name in place of "/Users/shane/Desktop/Sample.plist”. But how do I prompt for the file name instead?
When I try to add a “choose file… etc, it fails to compile.
Thanks.
