Unable to build or archive my app in Xcode. It failed with the below error
I am using the Xcode 11.3.1 and macOs 10.15.3(macOS Catalina)
Continuing in background.
error: Failed to display Xcode notification
caused by: script error: osascript: no such component "JavaScript".
Hard to tell without seeing the offending osascript invocation from your code. You have probably caught the error by now. If you are setting up NSTask/Process, did you review the launchPath and arguments settings? The osascript requirement for using JavaScript is:
osascript -l JavaScript
and the osascript binary is in /usr/bin. If this wasn't an NSTask/Process error, then the Safari scripting dictionary refers to:
do JavaScript
You are using third-party frameworks in Xcode. Since you received an osascript and JavaScript error message, I would start looking in RCTJavaScriptLoader.m and/or contact the provider of that code, and/or their support site.
The code snippet that I provided above is something I wrote to launch a script (or application) via NSTask, and read the output from that process from a pipe back into Objective-C. It could be a Python program that I pass a value to, and then displays a custom NSAlert via PyObjC. In the example code, it is a JavaScript for Automation (JXA) script that is being run from osascript (as JavaScript) and simply returns the list of files on the Desktop.
Here is the Objective-C code using NSTask to launch a script containing JavaScript using osascript. In this case, it sips the output of that JavaScript from the pipe, and prints the content. However, if the output from the JavaScript was a list, then a for loop would be needed to pick each item off of the array's objectAtIndex:
But the above error occurs after a slowdown of my machine while quiting all windows. (Includes the Xcode, it shows the upload succeeded notification after a while)
Can you tell me the file name of the above snippet.
I am using react-native to develop my app. It has RCTJavaScriptLoader.m and many other files too.
No, I not reviewed the launchPath and argument settings.
Can you guide me how to check this?
I not found any arguments or the launchPath like above in my Obj-c.
Then I don't know what is going on with your Xcode session that is displaying an osascript and JavaScript error.
