2010-03-19 -- 0.6.1
* removed 32-bit only AE.run_application_event_loop,
AE.quit_application_event_loop
* updated AE.launch_application to use LSOpenApplication
* minor documentation fixes
2010-12-17 -- 0.6.0
* added UTF-8 Encoding support in Ruby 1.9+; added
AEMCodecs::Codecs#use_ascii_8bit for optionally disabling it
* AEM::Codecs#pack now accepts Date, DateTime instances; added
AEM::Codecs#use_date_time method for unpacking typeLongDateTime descriptors
as DateTime instead of Time instances
* removed AE.get_app_terminology() as it relied on deprecated Carbon APIs
* added AE.copy_scripting_definition()
* the OSAX module now now uses OSACopyScriptingDefinition() to obtain
scripting addition terminology, so works in both 32- and 64-bit Ruby. Note
that in addition to limitations of OSACopyScriptingDefinition
(e.g. aete-to-sdef conversion is not 100% reliable), the SdefParser is
limited in capability (no support for xi:include, class-extension, synonym
elements), but should suffice for parsing relatively simple osax
dictionaries.
* modified Terminology.dump() to retrieve aete resources via 'ascrgdte'
events; added OSAX.dump() method
* added workaround for transaction id bug in some versions of OS X 10.6
* renamed AEMReference::Base class to AEMReference::Query
* renamed Send::CommandError class to Send::EventError; note that AEM
re-exports it as AEM::EventError and [for backwards compatibilty]
AEM::CommandError
2009-07-18 -- 0.5.3
* fixed pALL code in defaultterminology
* fixed OSAX module initialisation code (previously didn't initialise if
ScriptingAddition.new was called directly)
* fixed out-of-date URLs in appscript manual
2009-07-05 -- 0.5.2
* removed deprecated AEM::Application.is_running? method
* added #dont_cache_unpacked_specifiers, #pack_strings_as_type compatibility
options to AEM::Codecs
* added default definitions for 'item' type, 'items' elements, 'properties'
property as Apple have removed the 'item' class definition from
skeleton.sdef (the default terminology for Cocoa apps)
* property and elements methods now raise ArgumentError if passed arguments;
previously, malformed elements selectors,
e.g. app('TextEdit').documents(1).text, would be silently ignored, resulting
in unexpected behaviour
* Codecs#unpack now tries to coerce descriptors of typeVersion to unicode text
(works on 10.4+) c.f. AppleScript (note: itunes.version.get returns the
wrong version number otherwise; this appears to be an iTunes bug, but is
masked by current AppleScript behaviour)
* #process_exists_for_url?, #remote_app in connect.rb now raise error if URL
string doesn't contain a colon (process will crash otherwise due to an OS
bug)
* improved error reporting in Reference#[] when a malformed generic reference
containing a command expands to a non-reference value. e.g. its.name.get()
would previously expand the the value of the object's 'name' property,
typically a string, resulting in a cryptic NoMethodError; this now raises a
descriptive ArgumentError.
* fixed bug where Terminology module would error on zero-length keywords in
problem dictionaries (e.g. MS Word 12.1.7)
* AEM::Codecs now correctly unpacks AEDescs of typeBoolean whose data >1 byte
* fixed inconsistent escaping of application-defined property/element names
that overlap built-in type/enum/property names but uses different
codes. e.g. Adobe Illustrator defines 'rotation' as 'SxRx' - this overlaps
built-in definition ('rotation' = 'trot'), so is escaped as
'rotation_'. Previously only the Keyword was escaped (i.e. :rotation_ but
ref.rotation) now both are escaped (i.e. :rotation_, ref.rotation_). Users
should update existing code as needed.
* restructured defaultterminology.rb to make it easier to maintain
* changed default terminology mapping for :data from KAE::CRawData ('rdat') to
KAE::TypeData ('tdta')
* the OSAX module now obtains list of installed scripting additions on first
use instead of import (the .osax scanning code uses System Events via AEM,
and sending Apple events in event loop-based application before the event
loop is started can disrupt the process's handling of incoming Apple events)
Packages Collection.
Ruby appscript (rb-appscript) is a high-level, user-friendly Apple
event bridge that allows you to control scriptable Mac OS X
applications using ordinary Ruby scripts.
