I set up an application with the following code in the stack script:
on preOpenStack
put specialFolderPath("resources")& "/testfolder/" into tURL
create folder tURL
end preOpenStack
In the script of a button I put the following:
on mouseUp
ask "Write something to go into the resource folder:"
put it into tText
put "file:" & specialFolderPath("resources") & "/testfolder/test.txt" into tURL
put url tURL into tData
put tText & return after tData
put textEncode(tData,"UTF-8") into url tURLanswer url tURL
end mouseUp
I then build a standalone for Mac and started the application. After running
the script from the button three times I did find the file test.txt in the
folder named «testfolder» inside the _MacOS folder in the contents folder of
the app bundle. The file contained the exact three lines I had written. Whether
or not this will work on windows I don’t know as I do not have any computer
running Windows to try it on.
Best regards
Tore
