Recursive copy files from folders Part 2

#1 Post by xhai » 30 Aug 2014 02:21

Hi guys, a little bit modification of grab2.bat

Code: Select all

@Echo Off & SetLocal EnableExtensions DisableDelayedExpansion
Set _ext=.pdf
PushD %~dp0
For /D %%a In (*) Do If Exist "%%a\*%_ext%" Call :Sub "%%a"
Exit/B

:Sub
Set _cnt=0
For %%a In ("%~1\*%_ext%") Do Set/A _cnt+=1
If %_cnt% NEq 1 GoTo :EOF
If Not Exist "%~1%_ext%" Echo(F|XCopy "%~1\*%_ext%" "%~dp0%~1%_ext%">Nul


./cats/cata/file.bmp
./cats/catb/file.bmp
./cats/catb/file.png
./cats/catb/file.gif
./cats/grab.bat

This time I want grab2.bat to do this loop over the current folders and get all the .png and .gif files from catb folder, copy them and put them in cata folder, E.g (file.bmp, file.png, file.gif) overwrite same file


thank you

Maybe that would do the job.

Code: Select all

@echo off &setlocal
pushd "catb"
for /f "delims=" %%i in ('dir /a-d /b /s *.bmp *.png *.gif') do copy "%%i" "..\cata\"
popd
