QA:AppleEvent Logging

DRAFT

This page is not complete.

If the NSScriptingDebugLogLevel logging below isn't logging what you want, you can also enable additional AppleEvent logging with the following environment variables: export AEDebugSends=1; export AEDebugReceives=1

[7:36pm] peeja: ok, first step is to turn on NSScriptingDebugLogLevel
[7:38pm] ardissone: for your fun Terminal.app 
[7:39pm] peeja: davedit: defaults write org.mozilla.camino NSScriptingDebugLogLevel
[7:39pm] peeja: er add " 1" to that
[7:39pm] davedit: defaults write org.mozilla.camino NSScriptingDebugLogLevel 1
[7:39pm] davedit: in terminal
[7:39pm] peeja: ardissone: actually, i think that works too, but this sticks better
[7:40pm] peeja: now you'll need to start Camino again to pick up the new default
[7:40pm] peeja: er wait
[7:40pm] peeja: easier to export CAMINO_PROFILE=<some directory>
[7:40pm] peeja: (is that right?)
[7:40pm] ardissone: _DIR
[7:41pm] peeja: and then we can run from terminal
[7:41pm] ardissone: export CAMINO_PROFILE_DIR=~/Desktop/TestProfile
[7:41pm] peeja: we want to see the output from the app
[7:41pm] davedit: i type that into terminal?
[7:42pm] peeja: and then drag camino to the terminal window...
[7:42pm] peeja: ...backspace the space and tab to get Contents...
[7:42pm] peeja: and then tack on /MacOS/Camino
[7:42pm] peeja: and run that
[7:43pm] peeja: sorry, '/' after the backspace, probably
[7:43pm] davedit: alright running
[7:43pm] peeja: good
[7:43pm] peeja: this is hard to do over irc 
[7:43pm] davedit: hah
[7:44pm] peeja: now you'll see debugging output every time camino gets an appleevent
[7:45pm] peeja: so if you run any applescript the tells camino to do something, you'll see it logged
[7:45pm] davedit: so do a preview in browser in dreamweaver and see what it says?
[7:45pm] peeja: yup
[7:45pm] davedit: one sec
[7:45pm] peeja: oh, you might need to close any other caminos
[7:45pm] peeja: so you're sure the right one gets the messge

[7:46pm] peeja: those are ok
[7:46pm] sauron: yay stupid branch warnings 
[7:46pm] davedit: that's everything that showed up in terminal
[7:46pm] peeja: huh
[7:47pm] peeja: and they showed up when you tried to preview?
[7:47pm] davedit: yeah
[7:47pm] peeja: that means it's getting something
[7:47pm] peeja: but it's not logging what it gets...
[7:47pm] peeja: try running a script that tells camino to do something
[7:48pm] peeja: like "tell app "Camino" to get browser windows"
[7:48pm] davedit: i used a clone tab script
[7:48pm] peeja: that'll do
[7:48pm] davedit: paste what it says?
[7:48pm] peeja: sure

[7:51pm] peeja: sure
[7:51pm] davedit: when i try to do preview in browser again, nothing shows up in Terminal anymore
[7:51pm] davedit: should that be happening?
[7:52pm] davedit: for 1.6rc1
[7:52pm] peeja: well, you shouldn't see the things you saw before
[7:52pm] peeja: but you should see things you should have seen then
[7:52pm] peeja: but didn't
[7:52pm] davedit: hm
[7:52pm] davedit: so to test 1.5.5 should i drag it to the terminal and repeat?
[7:54pm] peeja: yes
[7:56pm] davedit: hm
[7:56pm] davedit: i redid the steps with 1.5.5 but dreamweaver is telling me there's another version of the browser running
