I'm really new to AppleScript so this is a real basic question but I couldn't find the answer or an example in the AppleScript ref. guide.
I'm making a simple script that I'll bundle as an application file, in the AppleScript Editor I can see the app's Bundle Contents in which I have an icon, a description file and a Scripts folder. How do I access that content from the script and how do I access the scripts inside the scripts folder?
If you save your script as a script bundle or as an application bundle you can use the path to resource command, e.g.:
path to resource "description.rtfd"

I have an Eclipse RCP application which I need to launch from Windows Run dialog.
I tried it by setting a key in REGISTERY entry in
HKLM\SOFTWARES\Microsoft\Windows\Current Version\All Paths\**full path to exe**
but the app was not launching. How can I launch an RCP application from the RUN dialog?
File hierarchy in the folder:
Entry in registry(app name Hello.exe:
The exe is not loading because in the .ini file endorsed folder is specified to take from the current location (./endorsed). How can I tell the machine to load jars from an endorsed folder?
One approach I found to be working is that to modify the .ini file at run time, so we can specify the full path for the endorsed folder while run time. But is that a good design?
Dont use registry entries. Rather specify the full path.
Let me know about how to mavinize Folder Context in RCPTT!
FYI: I have created a folder context (my_folder_context.ctx referring to a remote folder). First I click "Apply" button after opening the .ctx file in RCPTT tool to copy the contents to AUT location than execute the test cases to get the test data.
But while automating the same I don't find any entry for *.ctx file in RCPTT-maven-plugin. For suites we have below:
<suites>
<suite>MyTestSuite</suite>
</suites>
...but the same I didn't find for *.ctx files or any way to refer the folder context from ECL script .
Yes the short answer is this is NOT possible as the foldercontext is obviously not a testcase. You can only add the test case inside test suit.And it does not make any sense to execute a foldercontext file which is not doing any thing and no result or report can be generated out of it.
By the way let me share few of my learning here:
1)Folder context can be used while recording time in rcptt but runtime it's of no use. Basically it's like a mapped directory for a remote location available inside your rcptt tool.
2)I had provided the test data location at runtime and the same I achieved through below:
Go to RCPTT->Run configurations ->VM Arguments append -D"testdatalocation" (without double quote) and provide below
in ECL script :
set-dialog-result Folder [substitute-variables "${system_property:testdatalocation}"]
or in your maven pom.xml file :
<vmArgs>
<vmArg>-Dtestdatalocation=D:\InputsForAutomation</vmArg>
</vmArgs>
I want to access to a directory of an xcode project that contains cocoapods (firebase framework) in my Desktop! But I keep getting: No such file or directory!
I tried to access to another non-project folder and it worked.
It also worked when I tried to access to a project folder that does not contain cocoapods!
I don't know why I could not access to any project folder that contains cocoapods!
When I list the contents of the desktop I got:
There is an # in the properties
What does that means and how can I access to the folder?
I just want to upload it to the Github? any solutions?
BusinessWallet is probably a framework bundle, which means that it is actually just one file, but appears as a directory in Finder. You can copy individual files out of it in Finder.
If you need programmatic access to contents inside the bundle, take a look here: https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/CoreFoundation/Conceptual/CFBundles/AccessingaBundlesContents/AccessingaBundlesContents.html
I'm unable to use "Jar Bundler" on mac to create JMeter.app from ApacheJMeter.jar, I was wondering if anyone else had previous experience with configuring this tool? The problem for me seems to be that the lib folder being searched is set to an incorrect base path:
org.apache.jmeter.NewDriver: JMeter home directory was detected as: /Users/username/Applications/JMeter.app/Contents/Resources
I looked here: http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/Java/Reference/Java_InfoplistRef/Articles/JavaDictionaryInfo.plistKeys.html
But no matter how I configured any of the said properties, the logs looked the same.
The real trick is making sure the bin and lib folders can be found. The only jar file you will need to add is ApacheJMeter.jar. Look in the bin/jmeter script for additional properties to put into the properties tab of the Jar Bundler. The java arguments in the bin/jmeter script should be copied into the VM Options field. Check Set Working Directory to Inside Application Package. Now create application. Open up the .app folder that was just created and copy the bin and lib folders into the Resources directory. Done.
An trying to get openframeworks to build me my application so that i can open it from anywhere and it will load the needed images from within the apps Resources folder.
I believe this is relative linking?
I have done it before, on an older xcode and oF 61.
To do this i dragged the needed images into the project file on the left and added it to the executable target, with in a 'build phase' -> 'copy files'.
Been trying all sorts of methods, ofSetDataPathRoot() which solved the problem last time isnt working for me this time.
Any ideas/help would be appreciated!
Thanks
First you need to tell xCode to copy your /bin/data directory into your application bundle by adding a build phase:
1. Click on your project in the Project Navigator
2. Select "Build Phases"
3. Toggle open the "Run Script" section and paste in the following:
cp -r bin/data "$TARGET_BUILD_DIR/$PRODUCT_NAME.app/Contents/Resources";
Then tell your app where to find the data folder relative to itself within the bundle.
Inside the setup method of your oF app:
ofSetDataPathRoot("../Resources/data/");
ofSetDataPathRoot() should solve this problem. Perhaps you are setting the replacement root path incorrectly?
Try calling ofToDataPath() yourself on a string path and print out the result, then use Terminal and cd inside the .app bundle to check if the path sounds correct. Paths are expressed relative to the location of the actual executable inside the .app bundle, so if the executable is at myApp.app/Contents/MacOS/myApp and the data files are at myApp.app/Contents/Resources then ofToDataPath( "texture.png" ) should return something like ../Resources/texture.png.
You can double-check the current working directory (myApp.app/Contents/MacOS in my example) by calling getcwd(), open up a terminal and type man getcwd for more info on that.
oF now sets data path root and does internal calls to ofToDataPath() by default. What version are you using?
Have you looked inside the product's package contents to make sure your resources are getting copies in the proper build phase?
