bug in AESend with Intel Mac (LV 8.2) ?

[PlBee]

i attached a copy of AESend.vi
with default input values :
"JonspClp" for Event Class and ID
and "----“a long long text”" as parameter

this vi works (copy text to clipboard) with a PPC machine
but return an error message on an intel Mac (error -600)

i think it is a bug (??)

PlBee,

You are probably aware that LabVIEW is not officially supported on Intel Macs yet.  I am suspecting that your compiled code in the CIN is the issue since it was probably compiled for the PowerPC Mac and not for an x86 Mac.  If you don't think this is the case, please explain in more detail what is going on, with a simple VI that does nothing but show the error you are getting, and I can submit this information to R&D.  Thanks for your help!

no, as you certainly know, there is an automatic compilation of the whole Labview folder when installing on an intel mac.
i didn't cancelled this compilation

this vi send an appleevent ("JonspClp") to the finder, wit an argument ("a long long text")
this command ask the finder to put the argument (the text) in the clipboard

this works on PPC Mac
but return an error on intel Mac

it's a pleasure

PIBee,

I hadn't seen your other posts, it looks like you have helped a lot with LabVIEW on Intel Macs! This was reported to R&D (#43QG4KG0) for further investigation. Thanks for the feedback!
