Hello:
I'm sure there must be a simple answer, but I'm flummoxed trying to
send an AppleEvent from one python program to another.
The 'server' program has this code:
class avServer(AEServer, MiniApplication):
def __init__(self):
MiniApplication.__init__(self)
AEServer.__init__(self)
self.installaehandler('aevt','oapp',self.openApp)
self.installaehandler('aevt','quit',self.quit)
self.installaehandler('ascr','psbr',self.processEvent)
self.installaehandler('aevt','rapp',self.activate)
self.installaehandler('****','****',self.other)
When I use this applescript, it works:
tell application a
set r to processEvent("system", "start")
end tell
...but when I try from another python application I get an error:
from appscript import *
ap=app('pc-av')
ap.processEvent('system','start')
...or any number of other permutations. The most common error is
"RuntimeError: Unknown property, element or command: 'processEvent'
Does anyone have any tips on how to do this? I'm writing both the
client and server, so any method is fine. Get() and Set() will be
fine if I could only get them to work...
Thanks for any help you can give,
-dp-
David
