How to get relative path from current folder? - path

This is what i currently get with FOR loop:
FOR /R "ProgramFolder" %%P in (*) do (
echo %%P
)
C:\Folder\Folder2\ProgramFolder\Managed\bolt.dll
C:\Folder\Folder2\ProgramFolder\Resources\fmodstudio.dll
C:\Folder\Folder2\ProgramFolder\Plugins\dll\DynamicWaterNativeWrapper.dll
How to get pathes like this?
Managed\bolt.dll
Resources\fmodstudio.dll
Plugins\dll\DynamicWaterNativeWrapper.dll

#echo off
setlocal enableextensions disabledelayedexpansion
pushd c:\somewhere\ProgramFolder
for /f "tokens=1,* delims=\" %%a in (
'xcopy . "%temp%" /l /s'
) do if not "%%b"=="" echo(%%b
popd
The basic idea behind this code is to use the xcopy command not to copy, but to retrieve a list (/l) of the files that should be processed with relative paths. For it to work, it is necessary to first change the current active directory to the required one (pushd) and use a relative reference to the current folder (.)
The output of xcopy command with this configuration will be in the form
.\folder\folder\file.ext
To remove the prefixing dot and backslash the for /f is configured to use the slashes as delimiters and to retrieve the first token (the dot) before the first backslash and the rest of the line as the second token, that is, the relative paths
As the xcopy command output includes an aditional line with the total number of files, and this line will result in an aditional blank line in the output of the script, an aditional if is included to discard this line.

For loop in batch file dies calling Windows conversion tool

ParseRat is an old program that I have had a long time. I need to transpose text files in c:\wherefilesare.
I run the below and it just dies:
echo on
setlocal EnableDelayedExpansion
cd c:\wherefilesare
SET progdir=C:\program files (x86)\ParseRat
for%%x in (*.txt) do ("%%progdir%\parserat.exe" "%%x.txt" "%%progdir%\test.prz" "%%x.csv"
As #Squashman says:
"You (have) an extra percent symbol for all your (environment) variables. You are also not using the FOR meta-variable correctly. Essentially %%x expands to the actual file name with the extension. So it will see file1.txt.txt and file1.txt.csv. You need to use the command modifiers. %%~nx to get just the file name without the extension."
Also, you are missing a closing parenthesis...
echo on
setlocal EnableDelayedExpansion
cd c:\wherefilesare
SET progdir=C:\program files (x86)\ParseRat
for %%x in (*.txt) do (
"%progdir%\parserat.exe" "%%~nx.txt" "%progdir%\test.prz" "%%~nx.csv"
)

Jenkins EnvInject plugin - Environment variable value containing multiple lines

I followed the suggestions from this post on how to use the EnvInject plugin to create and set Jenkins environment variables. I'm using the "Inject environment variables" in post build step and set "Properties File Path"
The windows batch script create a environment variable OPS and writes it to a property file : results.txt which contains multiple lines , like :
OPS= This is line one,
This is two
This is three
Challenge: OPS picks up only the first line from results.txt and skips the rest of the lines.
How do I set OPS have all the lines as its value ?
cd C:\To\Test\Class\Path
java utilities.LogExtractor>ops.txt
#echo off
setlocal EnableDelayedExpansion
set LF=^
rem *** Two empty lines are required for the linefeed
FOR /F "delims=" %%a in (ops.txt) do (
set var=!var!!LF!%%a
)
set var=!var!!LF!
echo OPS=!var! > %JENKINS_HOME%\jobs\%JOB_NAME%\builds\%BUILD_NUMBER%\results.txt
and I set the "Properties File Path" to %JENKINS_HOME%\jobs\%JOB_NAME%\builds\%BUILD_NUMBER%\results.txt
From the source code, I'd say it uses java.util.Properties to load the file, calling the load method. The documentation says you can escape a line break with a backslash, so using
OPS= This is line one,\
This is two\
This is three
should be sufficient. (Be careful, whitespace at the beginning of the line is ommitted.)

Text parsing a file path in batch script

I'd like to set a file's name to a variable in a batch file. I'm already pulling the file name by pulling the total path length. Is there a way I can parse the path to only give me back the file name?
The particular script that I use to pull the path looks like this:
for /f "delims=_" %%J IN ('forfiles /p "%%F" /m *.extension /c "cmd /c echo #path"')
DO start "Program" /D "c:\fullpath" /Wait program -r %%J
Also, if there's an easier way to pull the file name and put it into a variable I'm open to that as well.

How to access different lines in text files batch

To clarify it First i'm making a url shortener script that use input.txt file as input and outputs as an output.txt where you can put unlimited links in the input.txt
This is what i got
#echo off
set /p firstline=<input.txt
echo %firstline%
for %%a in (%firstline%) DO (
set "text=http://adfoc.us/api/?key=c803bc5b2f2e8ad5ccb0166d4bc898ae^&url=%%a"
)
echo %text%>output.txt
example input.txt has 600 lines and i want to make them all in output.txt
I assumed that you have an input.txt file that contain 600 lines with just the url part, and that you want to complete that lines with fixed http and key parts. If this is true, then the Batch file below do that:
#echo off
(for /F "delims=" %%a in (input.txt) DO (
echo http://adfoc.us/api/?key=c803bc5b2f2e8ad5ccb0166d4bc898ae^&url=%%a
)) >output.txt
Antonio
PS - If my answer is right, then you are NOT making an "url shortener script", but precisely the opposite thing! This script take an url and enlarge it by adding http and key parts, isn't it?

I can't send some command line parameters via Autohotkey to VLC

I can't figure out how to get my audio extractor script working via commandline arguments on ahk. I know the command line argument is correct, as I'm able to get it working through a batch file, but I keep getting the error below. I think I'm probably doing something wrong syntactically but I just can't figure out what.
I'd really appreciate any help. Thanks.
Error: the following variable name contains an illegal character"

Have you tried without the SplitPath, File_Name, name? I got rid of the error like this, but I don't know if it produces the result you want in the end.
I found the answer. I was making syntatical errors I just didn't have the knowledge to fix myself. The new RUN statement works perfectly.
Here is the newly revised script
fileselectfile, File_Name, M3
SplitPath, File_Name, name, dir, ext, name_no_ext, drive
StringReplace, File_Name, File_Name,`n, \
Loop, parse, name, `n
{if a_index = 2
msgbox, %A_LoopField%
Run % "C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe -I dummy -v """ File_Name """ :sout=#transcode{vcodec=none,acodec=mp3,ab=128,channels=2,samplerate=44100}:standard{access=""file"",mux=dummy,dst=""" A_LoopField ".mp3""} "
}
