#Script debugger returned error 29294 Bluetooth#

They like to connect to the Bluetooth speaker in the kitchen and interupt their mum playing music with “give us all your money!” in some funny voice etc etc. I’ve got both of mine into it (10yr & 8yr) simply by letting them play with “say” and lots of funny voices. But AS IS a good way to get kids into coding. Clearly, Tim doesn’t know Jack about coding in Swift. Tim Cook was today on Twitter promoting Swift playgrounds as ways to get kids into coding. Not just for SD, but of course for AS itself. This has to be a marketing issue, though. So far, we are in a negative position, compared to the release of Script Debugger 5. It remains to be seen if the reduction in price stimulates sales enough to justify this kind of effort. Quite frankly, Script Debugger’s market is so vanishingly small that its not clear that I can justify the investment needed to make all this happen. There are side issues such as ensuring AppleScript re-loads libraries when are edited and the main script is not compiled, etc. Then, the entire Script Debugger UI for document management will have to be implemented, ore or less, from scratch to support a multi-source documents/script modal. use script in the body of a script) where Script Debugger will not be able to do its magic. But even with that approach, there will be situations (i.e. I have ideas for this, based on the notion of JIT de-compilation and re-compilation.

To do libraries correctly I first need to find a new means of introducing Script Debugger’s debugging hacks into loaded code. There are other issues as well: Script Debugger’s UI is built around the we need to adopt an Xcode-like UI where a script is composed of many source documents.

Further, because Script Debugger uses its own OSA component, AppleScript interprets code saved with debugging enabled as something other than AppleScript and reports the errors you are seeing. As a result, Script Debugger is unable to introduce its debugging hacks where needed. These actions take place within AppleScript and beyond the reach of Script Debugger. The use of a custom OSA component facilitates debugging within other host applications (Mail, etc.).īut, as always, there is a problem when AppleScript loads code on the user’s behalf ( load script, use script, run script). This is accomplished using Script Debugger’s own OSA component ( ~/Library/Components/Script ponent). Script Debugger’s exploits this single compilation unit model to introduce its debugging hooks at compile time. Sure, you could use the load script command and Script Debugger had its own library facilities, but most scripts were the result of a single compilation unit. Think of Script Debugger as a Porsche 911: a really bad idea executed very well.īack before the appearance of AppleScript Libraries, AppleScript scripts were monolithic. Everything Script Debugger offers is done by various forms of hacks. What follows is simply an explanation, not a defence of the current state of affairs.ĪppleScript provides a very limited API for developers, and absolutely nothing to facilitate debugging. Unfortunately, a solution was outside the scope of the Script Debugger 6.0 effort.
