I'm setting the fileType to "FJL3PREF" for my preferences files, but I've noticed that this value is being used on *all* files I create, not just my preferences files.
I thought this value would be handler specific, i.e. it would be set to empty after the handler finished. Unfortunately I'm finding that JPEG files that my app creates with "export image ... as JPEG" have this fileType as well.
Should I set the fileType to empty after I've written the prefs file? Or "????????"? Or something else?
The fileType property is persistent, initialized to "ttxtTEXT".
For temporary use you'll probably want to save the current value and restore it when you're done:
on SavePrefs
global gPrefsData
local tSaveType
put the fileType into tSaveType
set the fileType to "FJL3PREF"
put gPrefsData into \
url ("file:"&specialFolderPath("Preferences")&"/MyAppPrefs")
set the fileType to tSaveType
end SavePrefs
