Applescript indicates resource not found when trying to call within inside the app

问题

Playing with AppleScript I am confused on what I am doing wrong when I try to call another AppleScript from the Scripts folder. My current script is saved as foo.app and I see the structure from the Bundle Contents but when I try to call bar.app from inside the Scripts folder I get a dialog of Resource not found.

After referencing "How to access from AppleScript a bundled file within a Cocoa-AppleScript Application?" I tried:

tell application "Finder"
    set thisFolder to (container of (path to me)) as string
    set insideApp to thisFolder & (path to resource "bar.app")
end tell

When that produced the error I did some more searching I referenced "How do I get the Scripts folder in the application bundle?" and tried:

tell application "Finder"
    set thisFolder to (container of (path to me)) as string
    set insideApp to (thisFolder as alias) & (path to resource "bar.app" in directory "Scripts")
end tell

Targeting description.rtfd I display the variable thisFolder and the dialog I get Macintosh HD:Users:darth_vader:Desktop: but it produces Resource not found when I run:

tell application "Finder"
    set thisFolder to (container of (path to me)) as string
    display dialog thisFolder
    set insideApp to thisFolder & (path to resource "Contents:Resources:description.rtfd")
end tell

What exactly am I doing wrong and how do I call from within the Scripts folder?

回答1:

There is a general misunderstanding:

path to me points to the path to the script (bundle).
container of (path to me) points to the path to the enclosing folder of the script (bundle)

So it's:

set insideApp to path to resource "bar.app"

or:

set insideApp to path to resource "bar.app" in directory "Scripts"

or (preferable)

set insideApp to alias ((path to me as text) & "Contents:Resources:description.rtfd")

The Finder is not needed at all.
