Topic: AppleEvents


In the News (Thu 16 Feb 12)

  
  JavaScript OSA - Responding to AppleEvents
AppleEvent names are taken from the host application's AppleEvent dictionary.
If the 4-character codes associated with your AppleEvent handler are non-printable, and thus cannot be used to create a valid JavaScript function name, you can use a special function called OSAInit to install your handlers.
Continuing an AppleEvent allows the event you are processing to be passed on to the host application running your JavaScript script for processing.

 [No title]   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
AppleEvents are sometimes referred to as “interapplication communication.” As stated earlier you can use AppleEvents to send PiXELS3D a command.
In the case of PiXELS3D a C-style string is attached to the AppleEvent.
The kAENormalPriority means that this AppleEvent is of “normal priority.” The value parameter kNoTimeOut means that we will wait for as along as it takes to send/receive the AppleEvent; in other words there will be no timeout.

 chaff:: appleevents, subscription, and itunes
I've recently been playing with iTunes and AppleScript quite a bit, for the wire-and-string remote project (of which more soon, once I get a workable server out of Tom).
When an event happens, the object that handles the event merely forwards it to the hub, which then forwards it on to the next applications that want to know.
The analogous AppleEvent pubsubhub would, then, take messages from applications like iChatStatus saying "I'd like to know when iTunes moves on to the next track".

 CocoaDev: AppleEvents
AppleEvents are high-level, semantic messages designed to allow for collaboration between programs.
AppleEvents were widely used in AOCE and OpenDoc?

 PageSentry 4.1 - User's Guide - Extending PageSentry Using AppleEvents
While PageSentry includes many different types of server tests, at some point you may have a need to monitor a server that isn't supported by one of the existing Sentry types.
If you are not, you may be able to use the examples to get started, but this chapter is not intended to be a primer on either AppleScript or AppleEvents.
The AppleEvent sent from PageSentry is very simple, and includes just 2 parameters which you can extract and use in your script:

 Running scripts via AppleEvents   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
Through the use of AppleEvents, much of this can be eliminated, a wider variety of scripting (programming) languages are available to you, and your scripts can run concurrently with the server application.
This AppleEvent (WWW*sdoc) is sent by MacHTTP and WebSTAR and is used to initiate the script.
The AppleEvent is composed of two parts: "WWW" and "sdoc".

 Special Edition Using CGI - Chapter 24
AppleEvents aren't used when the AppleScript CGI is stored as a text-only script.
WWW[go]sdoc AppleEvent is used by the Macintosh WWW server to transmit information from the Web browser to the CGI script.
If the application isn't idle and is instead processing an AppleEvent, the idle handler returns a value of 5, meaning that the server quit handler will be queried in 5 seconds.

 Rumpus 1.3 - User's Guide: User Account Management Using AppleEvents
If you are developing an automated system for managing user accounts, a third party account management program, or would like to control user accounts through AppleScript, you can use AppleEvents to manipulate the Rumpus user database.
The AppleEvents used to manage user accounts are, for the most part, straightforward, and the AppleScript samples below should make the process clear.
Note that all Rumpus user account management AppleEvents are of the class "FTPA".

 Apple Script
An application is recordable when all (or most) user-interface handling results in the generation of one or more AppleEvents, which are directly routed to the application itself for execution.
The AppleScript system can record these AppleEvents in a script, which the user can then edit.
This can be a very user-friendly way for a user to start scripting, but of the relatively few applications that support AppleScript, even fewer support recordability.

 Apple events - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This is also an Apple event, which could contain various bits of information returned from the target about the processing of the request event, including an error code indicating success/failure, or any other appropriate information.
Apple events are the foundation of the AppleEvent Object Model, which in turn is the foundation of AppleScript.

I pointed out that Apple was coming out with System7, which had AppleEvents (or later 7.1 and AppleScript).
Part of that feature set was AppleEvents and AppleScript (though schedules do slip, sometimes a lot).
So basically AppleEvents and AppleScript were known about (as a concept) in 1988 time frame (at least).

 The Mac Observer - New Secret Decoder Ring, But Not From A Cereal Box
The AppleEvent DecoderRing allows SuperCard developers to know when their projects are using high performance AppleEvents, allowing simple software optimization.
AppleEvents are much faster than an uncompiled AppleScript, so it is a good idea to use them whenever possible, especially when speed is an issue.
To use AppleEvent DecoderRing, simply click the 'Import Dictionary' button and select the dictionary of the application you would like to translate.

 REALbasic
Here, we take some of the tasks which are difficult, or at least time consuming, to accomplish with AppleEvents, and package them as REALbasic Plugins.
Many of these plugins accomplish their tasks hundreds of times faster than AppleEvents, and you can generally use these professional quality plugins for free (with some restrictions).
What is available right now is a sample project that demonstrates how you can integrate a spell checker into your application, with the use of AppleEvents.

That is, you can directly open and save files in BBEdit, combined with Anarchie, via AppleEvents.
By the way, I am not the only person who has requested this, an RB contractor contacted me also saying he needs this for his program.

 MacKiDo/DarkSide/ai_DaveWiner
This scripting capability was an incredibly powerful function, and the whole reason why Apple creating AppleEvents.
It is also a function that the Mac has, but that Windows does not really do (though you can hack windows into doing something far inferior) but that is a separate issue.
So he put together a product called Frontier (supposedly because he was pushing the frontier of scripting?).

 AppleEvents
Note that the Open AppleEvent converts the file being opened.
The Open event places the document name onto a queue and returns immediately, so you must test to see if RTFtoHTML is still running to determine when your covnersion is finished.
Note that because these settings are processed prior to the rest of html-trn, using the.Strings mechanism to set variables may result in the variables being re-set by subsequent html-trn lines.

 CORBA vs. COM/AppleEvents/XML-RPC...
So my take on CORBA is this: for moving bits from point A to point B it's not inherently more complex than COM, AppleEvents, or XML-RPC.
the security and authentication issue, are general: COM, AppleEvents, CORBA, and XML-RPC all face them because they're orthogonal to the communication issue.
I've written about capability-based security elsewhere, so I won't reiterate here.
