Any idea how that might arise? Sounds like a bug in XCode's terminology resource. I'd need to see the raw terminology to say for sure. If you want to use the osaterminology.tools.quickdoc module to dump it to text file and send if over I'll take a look. > If you change the marked line (104) to read: > > name = self._pluralClassNames.get(code, > self._singularClassNames.get(code, '____'+code)) > > then the rest of the terminology seems to run fine, and you just end up > with one bogus entry called '____****' in the app's attributes. Appscript-0.9.0 does this. Should be ready in another few days - I'll post when it's out. Buggy terminology resources are unfortunately a fairly common problem, and I'm still figuring out how best to deal with them.
