Please describe the issue:
When a source editor is open in a workspace, the following AppleScript command fails with error -10000:
    tell Xcode to get every source document

It is possible to tell Xcode to get every document, and the first item happens to be a source document, but getting that item’s class fails with the same error.

Please list the steps you took to reproduce the issue:
1. Open a source editor in a workspace in Xcode.app.
2. Open Source Editor.app and run the following AppleScript: tell Xcode to get every document
3. Run the following AppleScript: tell Xcode to get every source document

What did you expect to happen?
Step 3 returns the same object as the second item of the list returned by step 2.

What actually happened?
Error -10000.

Comments

Apple says the feature has been removed, but it hasn’t been, at least in Xcode 11.3.1. On the bright side, it works again in 11.3.1.
