I am getting the following result: Pasteboard data size($Transfer_Sig) = -102
$Transfer_Sig = "com.4d.private.Data.Transfer" I am trying to transfer data from 1 process to another using the pasteboard. I use semaphores to protect writing and reading from the pasteboard Source process: I use a 'transfer signature' which allows me to insure that I am getting what I expect. I build a blob, using Variable to Blob - 'data type' (text) internal to my code, in this instance "Longint Array". - a longint array Blob is 76 bytes I clear the pasteboard (Clear Pasteboard) Append to Pasteboard ($Transfer_Sig; Blob) In destination process - I insure the writing has completed (above) - Then check the size of the data on the pasteboard (Pasteboard Data size($transfer_sig)) this returns -102 which is an error - no data of that type debugging: Source process - after appending the blob to the pasteboard, Pasteboard Data size = size of the blob (76bytes) Destination process: Pasteboard Data size = -102 yes, I have checked that the transfer signatures is correct, copy/pasting between running processes. I have modified the signature, shortening it. Any help or insight into what is (or more likely not) happening?
