How to continuously run a exe within a batch file with different parameters

Question

I have an exe application that takes in 2 parameters. One is a input file path with an specific extension (eg *.jpg) and Second is the output file path.

Now in a folder, I have let's say 100 jpeg images which I want to pass in continuously and saved the output with the same file name as the input (extension will be different, the exe does the conversion).

Any idea how do I write a batch file to achieve this?

Thanks and Regards, Perumal

Answer 1

Try this:

@FOR %%1 IN (%1) DO convert %%1 %2\%%n1.png

To be used as:

bulkconvert c:\test\*.jpg c:\test

It'll call convert for each file that matches the search pattern c:\\test*.jpg and a 2nd parameter will be provided with the path provided as batch's 2nd parameter (note: there is not the trailing backslash) with the same file name but with extension png.
