I have called number of scripts within a script and I want to know the parent script name of the running script.
e.g.:
“C” script called from “B” and “B” called from “A”
if I am in C I want to check the name of the immediate parent (i.e. B in this case) or the complete hierarchy of the calling script (i.e. C>B>A).
How can I do this?
One way of getting the name of the script that called the current script would be to use the following command:
put the last item delimited by "/" of the scriptObjectID of the penultimate item of the callstack
Similarly you could generate a list of all of the scripts in the callstack with this command:
put the last item delimited by "/" of the scriptObjectID of each item of the callstack
Or if you like, you can save about 10 keystrokes by using the lastPathComponent function instead of the last item delimited by “/”:
put the lastPathComponent of the scriptObjectID of each item of the callstack
