dir /adh /b /s

Re: Batch to delete specific files & folders

I'm no expert but, in the batch file you could use something like this possibly: for /f "tokens=*" %%a in ('dir /ad /b /s ^|findstr /e /i /r "\\Debug\>"') do rd /s /q %%a for /f "tokens=*" %%a in ('dir /ad /b /s ^|findstr /e /i /r "\\Release\>"') do rd /s /q %...

Re: Multiple checks in IF

I think you would need multiple IF statements. You can eliminate case by using /I. But, a for loop like this can help clean it up.

Code: Select all

for %%a in (s n 10) do IF /I "%%a"=="%var1%" (do X) ELSE (do Y)


hope this helps get you on the right track

Re: Replacing a string with timestamp

Well, in batch this can get you a timestamp. Not sure if this helps:

Code: Select all

echo %date:~-4%%date:~-7,2%%date:~-10,2%%time:~0,2%%time:~3,2%

Re: setting variable within for loop

Didn't really look too closely but, try this:

Code: Select all

@echo off
SETLOCAL ENABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION
for /f "tokens=* delims=" %%X in ('dir /ad /b') do (
for /f "tokens=3 delims=_" %%A IN ("%%X") do (
echo %%A
set version=%%A
echo !version!
)

Re: insert text to rename files

Could you give a bit of a sample set of the files, the folder structure they are in, and how you would want them to look / be named? I'm not sure which way to go and am not sure on the exact source. Tip: "dir /b /s" of the directory in question will give a structure of the folders and files.

Re: needs to create incremental synch local folder with ftp

You probably need it in passive mode. Try changing 'open' line to:

Code: Select all

open login:pass@194.154.80.6:21 -passive

Re: needs to create incremental synch local folder with ftp

Once you have your script written you would have to use windows task scheduler to run it in the background or some other task scheduler. So you would create a task that launches winscp like so: winscp.exe /console /script=yourscript.txt yourscript.txt (untested) option batch on option confirm off op...

Re: move file to a shared folder in windows 7

In windows if you move a file to a different directory on the same drive, it will keep its NTFS permissions from where it was. If you copy the file, it inherits the permissions. Also, if you move a file to a different Windows drive (partition) or to a network drive, it actually copies the file and t...
