I have been having problems calling my Cocoa app with Python scripts
through the Scripting Bridge. To test further, I wrote the following
Cocoa code to use the Scripting Bridge. For a large file (over 7000
elements in the SBElementArray recs variable) it runs smoothly until
77% completion and then stops. I thought it had crashed, but one time
I waited and after a 2 minute pause, it starts up again and runs
smoothly to 100% completion.
So what is wrong with the Scripting Bridge in long scripts? I get
these pauses in many scripts and thus is not related to the specific
calls in the sample script. I test some I thought were crashing again
and so far all start up again, but some pause for over 5 minutes.
// get application, front document, and list of some app objects
id gedit = [SBApplication
applicationWithBundleIdentifier:@"com.geditcom.GEDitCOMII"];
id gdoc = [[gedit documents] objectAtIndex:0];
id recs = [gdoc individuals];
// loop and do something minor
int i, numBdate=0, numIndi=0, numRecs=[recs count];
float fractionStepSize=0.01, nextFraction=0.01;
for(i=0;i<numRecs;i++)
{ id indi=[recs objectAtIndex:i];
if([[indi recordType] isEqualToString:@"INDI"])
{ numIndi+=1;
int emin=[indi birthSDN];
int emax=[indi birthSDNMax];
if(emin!=0 && emin==emax) numBdate+=1;
// print progress
fractionDone = (float)i/(float)numRecs;
if(fractionDone > nextFraction)
{ NSLog(@"%f ",fractionDone);
nextFraction = nextFraction+fractionStepSize;
}
}
}
