Include other AS files?

Scripting Forums AppleScript Studio & Xcode
#1

hi,
I am making a as framework kinda thing that includes all the code i use in almost every application.
I know there is a way to do this in Cocoa but how can i “include” other files?

example:


-- Main AS File.applescript
on will finish launching theObject
	import "some other file.applescript"
	function()
end will finish launching



-- some other file.applescript
on function()
--do something
end function

I get a build error not understanding the “inport” part.

If anyone knows how to do this i am very thankful

It’s not quite the same, but you can use load script (see Standard Additions).

set something to load script whatever
tell something to doSomething()
#3 
on will finish launching theObject
	set API to load script (path to me as string) & "Contents:Resources:Scripts" & "NSAPI.applescript"
	tell API to NSAPI()
end will finish launching

i get the error “Can’t make … into type file”
(have tried without the path to app, have tried with a “.scpt” file)

Try something like this:

set API to load script (path to resource "NSAPI.scpt" in directory "Scripts")
#5

thanks, the first script is working now. (not sure why :stuck_out_tongue: )
