Resources on programming, especially on AppleScript Studio wanted.

Didn´t´want to leeche on pscates thread so I made this.



I am making a small registration program for the office that are supposed to be used for registration of certain medical events and I am kind of stuck on how to do certain things. I wonder if there is a place where I cold find some help, like posting my unfinished project and ask others to help in?



There is a lot of places helping people on how to resize windows, finding documents etc. in X and a lot where people help each other on advanced programming questions. But no place I know of where Joe Average that needs to program something very simple can find help.

Didn't you have a thread on this already? I distinctly remember advising something or other.

well, while not directly useful to the problem you pose, sf.net is a great resource. register there (free), create a project (free), and they host it (free). you get a web site, a forum, source control, and all kinds of goodies, for FREE. the caveat being you have to license your product under an OSI-approved license (must be free or open-source software).



i'll be willing to help. tell me more specifically you are having trouble with. if you put your project on sf (the whole registration, plus project creation/approval process takes a couple of days), you can send me (or others) there to download the current version, and ask them to contribute back.

Perhaps small stupid question is how I´ll do it:

What does the error message "NSReceiverEvaluationScriptError" really mean?



Im trying to squash out the bug and sometimes its followed with "4 (1)" and sometimes with a "(10)"



What does the number refer to (and which one is indicates that I have come the longest with my work?)

Woops. Just realised its two different errors:



"NSReceiverEvaluationScriptError 4 (1)"



and



"NSCannotCreateScriptCommandError (10)"



The app is supposed to take the value of certain text boxes and place them in a table. Buttons, table and boxes are placed in a tab view.



the code is this:

Code:

property etlistedataindhold : {}



on clicked theObject

tell window of theObject

tell tab view item "et" of the tab view "alle"

set etlistedataindhold to etlistedataindhold & {my ettilfoj(window of the tab of theObject)}

tell table view "etlistedata" of scroll view "etliste" to update

end tell

end tell

end clicked



on cell value theObject table column tableColumn row theRow

set thevalue to ""

if (count of etlistedata) ? theRow then

set theRowData to item theRow of etlistedataindhold

set theID to identifier of tableColumn

if theID is "etlistedatafo" then

set thevalue to etkvfo of theRowData

else if theID is "etlistedataef" then

set thevalue to etkvef of theRowData

end if

end if



return thevalue

end cell value



on number of rows theObject

return count of etlistedataindhold

end number of rows





on ettilfoj(thewindow)

tell thewindow

return {etkvfo:contents of text field "etkvfo", etkvef:contents of text field "etkvef"}

end tell

end ettilfoj
