On XP, Rev. 2.8.0:
Am using shell to run the command line utility jhead, which extracts Exif data
from JPEG files. I am using a non-blocking BAT file approach, which works
beautifully with JPEGs on the startup drive, but not on any other drive. From
Rev the call boils down to this:
set the shellCommand to "cmd.exe"
set the hideConsoleWindows to true
get shell("C:/test.bat")
This BAT file works:
cd "C:\jheadTEST"
start /B jhead.exe
jhead "C:\DSC_0008.JPG" > "C:\Test.txt"
This BAT file doesn't ("Windows can't find jhead" error):
cd "C:\jheadTEST"
start /B jhead.exe
jhead "E:\DSC_0008.JPG" > "C:\Test.txt"
The only difference between the two examples is the first volume indicator on
the third line. Identical JPEGs exist at root of both drives.
Note: Both BAT files work if the /B argument is excluded. But if the /B
argument is excluded, the console window flashes, despite having set the
hideConsoleWindows to true (a bug in 2.8.0, maybe?).
Any ideas on how I make this work across volumes, but without the console
window flashing?
Mark
