AppleScript的应用程序的路径使用可变 [英] Applescript path to application using variable

问题描述

如果我有一个AppleScript代码片段，如本

If I have an applescript snippet such as this

tell application "Finder"
set thePath to (POSIX path of (path to application "MyApp"))
end tell

它会退还给我。

/应用/ MyApp.app

"/Applications/MyApp.app"

现在，我似乎无法弄清楚是如何通过一个变量而不是文字而是指定MyApp的。

Now, what I can't seem to figure out is how to instead specify "MyApp" via a variable rather than the literal.

我的AppleScript一些XML值读取，其中之一是我在有趣的应用程序的名字我已经试过这样：

My applescript reads in some XML values, one of them being the name of the application I'm interesting in. I've tried this:

tell application "Finder"
set thePath to (POSIX path of (path to application someVariable))
end tell

但这只是告诉我的错误

but this simply tells me the error

查找器得到了一个错误：无法提出申请。入式恒的MyApp

"Finder got an error: Can't make application "MyApp" into type constant."

任何想法我怎么可以这样？

Any ideas how I can do this?

推荐答案

答案（或至少一个答案）是：

The answer (or at least one answer) is:

set theApp to "MyApp"
set pathToTarget to POSIX path of (path to application theApp)

由于应用程序的路径的标准添加的一部分，不需要搜索引擎。

Since path to application is a part of Standard Additions, the Finder is not needed.
