Finding out which jpg file doesn't have a corresponding png file.

[legiom455]

Here's one I really need some help with.

I have some images in a folder, say d:\images. In this folder are jpg images, ...ie ...xxx.jpg. AND, some of these jpgs' have been converted to a png file (using same filename, just with a different extension). What I need to do is search thru the d:\images directory, ... and copy ANY jpgs' that do NOT have a corresponding png file... over to a folder named d:\temp. So, after completion, ... d:\temp will contain jpg files that have not been converted to the png format.

If anyone can do this ..... FREE BEER all Around!!!!!!

thank you in advance!

Can you not just search for the .png files? Unless there's other non-converted png images?

Seriously though, no one is likely to write the script for you, unless they are bored or something.

So here is some functions to look at:

FileExists()

FileCopy()

Post some code and people might be more willing to help.

My biggest challange is trying to figure out how to .."sequence thru" the folder ... to perform the FileExists commands...

BTW, I sent that beer, but it came back, .. broken and non deliverable!

#include <file.au3>
#include <array.au3>

$jpgs = _FileListToArray("D:\images", "*.jpg")
$pngs = _FileListToArray("D:\images", "*.png")

_ArraySort($pngs, 0, 1)

For $a = 1 To $jpgs[0]
    If _ArrayBinarySearch($pngs, StringReplace($jpgs[$a], ".jpg", ".png"), 1) = -1 Then
        FileCopy("D:\images\" & $jpgs[$a], "D:\temp\" & $jpgs[$a])
    EndIf
Next

No beer for me. Alcohol is bad for the body.
