Hello, I've been following along the SBSendEmail example from Apple.
https://developer.apple.com/library/content/samplecode/SBSendEmail/Introduction/Intro.html The same should be able to be done via pyobjc as well. The alloc init cycle of the outgoing message object yields me a Python future object. Example code below: from ScriptingBridge import SBApplication apple_mail = SBApplication.applicationWithBundleIdentifier_( 'com.apple.mail') apple_mail_message_class = apple_mail.classForScriptingClass_( 'outgoing message') apple_mail_message = apple_mail_message_class.alloc().initWithProperties_({ 'subject': 'foo', 'content': 'bar', }) Only alloc()ing the object yields an ephemeral pseudo-SB object as improper SB use does. >>> apple_mail_message = apple_mail_message_class.alloc() >>> apple_mail_message <MailOutgoingMessage objective-c instance 0x7fc0586d24c0> >>> apple_mail_message.subject() >>> apple_mail_message.subject() Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> AttributeError: cannot access attribute 'subject' of NIL 'MailOutgoingMessage' object >>> apple_mail_message <MailOutgoingMessage objective-c instance 0x0> My understanding of what is going here is that interacting with it once makes it go away as its retain count is 0 in the Obj-C VM. The future object contains its properties in its repr(). >>> apple_mail_message <future MailOutgoingMessage with properties { content = bar; subject = foo; }> >>> type(apple_mail_message) <objective-c class SBProxyByClass at 0x7fffa69f9fe0> So, how to work with these future objects? Or am I doing something fundamentally wrong in how I'm trying to chase the obj-c example? -- Joni Orponen
