I am using ProE for 3D design. Each time ProE saves, a new version file is generated. For example, the old version is aa.prt.1 and the new version is aa.prt.2, and so on. Although the software provides pruge.bat to delete the old version files in the working directory, after a long time, there are old version files in many folders. I hope to be provided with a quick method to clean up the old version files in a certain disk at one time.

The old files you mentioned, do they refer to all files like aa.prt.XX and so on? After reading your description, I'm not very sure what exactly the old files look like. Also, where are these old files stored?

Yeah, the new version of the file is just adding 1 after aa.prt.x. In short, the suffix of the new version of the file must be larger than that of the old version. For example, the old version might be aa.prt.2, while the new version is aa.prt.7 or larger. The files are placed in a messy way, possibly in many directories within one disk. The key is to clear all these old versions at one time... This is very practical in data organization...

That is to say, you need to search for files like aa.prt.number in a certain partition, right? And only keep the one with the largest number?

Simply put, it's like this. I'm a newbie, and I'm asking for experts' advice...

No, nobody knows? Is it difficult or too easy...

In fact, there are two relatively difficult places. One is that the directory where the file is located is not fixed, so it is necessary to search and then classify. The second is that the number of files in the old version is not fixed, there may be multiple or only one. For example, the new version is: filename.prt.7, while the old version may be: filename.prt.5, filename.prt.3, etc.

The following is attached the batch processing for clearing in the working directory that comes with the Pro/E program, but it can only clear one directory at a time, and cannot clear the entire disk.
The file is located at: E:\Program Files\proeWildfire 3.0\bin\purge.bat
The code is as follows:

@echo off

set MC=unset
if "%PROCESSOR%" == "INTEL_64" set MC=ia64_nt
if "%PROCESSOR%" == "INTEL_486" set MC=i486_nt
if "%PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE%" == "IA64" set MC=ia64_nt
if "%PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE%" == "AMD64" set MC=x86e_win64
if "%PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE%" == "x86" set MC=i486_nt
if not "%MC%" == "unset" goto mc_done
echo ERROR Cannot detect what machine type you have.
echo Please make one of the following settings:
echo.

echo.
exit
:mc_done

set PRO_MACHINE_TYPE=%MC%

if "%PROOBJ_START_DIRECTORY%" == "" set PRO_DIRECTORY=
if NOT "%PRO_DIRECTORY%" == "" "%PRO_DIRECTORY%\bin\%MC%_ptc_setvars" %0 "purge" bat
if "%PRO_DIRECTORY%" == "" %MC%_ptc_setvars %0 "purge" bat
call ptc_setvars.bat
del ptc_setvars.bat

set start_cmd=start ""

set PRO_DIRECTORY=%PRODIR%
if NOT "%PTCPATH%" == "" goto ptcpathset

set path=%PRO_DIRECTORY%\bin;%path%

set PTCPATH=true
:ptcpathset


"%PRODIR%\%MC%\obj\purge.exe" %1 %2 %3 %4 %5
:ptc_end
exit /B %ERRORLEVEL%

The following code will display the old files to be deleted in drive D. Since it needs to search the entire partition, the speed will be slow; please be patient. If the displayed result is correct, replace the echo statement with the del statement. If you want to delete old files in other partitions, replace the d in d:\aa.prt.* with another letter.
@echo off cd.>tmp1.txt for /f "delims=" %%i in ('dir /a-d /b /s d:\aa.prt.*') do echo %%~xi "%%i">>tmp1.txt sort /r<tmp1.txt>tmp2.txt echo The old files to be deleted are: for /f "skip=1 tokens=1*" %%i in (tmp2.txt) do echo %%j del /q tmp1.txt tmp2.txt pause

No good, boss. Among them
for /f "delims=" %%i in ('dir /a-d /b /s d:\aa.prt.*') do echo %%~xi "%%i">>tmp1.txt
The file name should be *.prt.*, but it's still ineffective after replacement. I'm郁闷啊...

Hehe, I've never seen a file with a suffix like 1, 2, 3 which is just a pure number. Did you misread the suffix?

Boss, are you kidding? I use it every day. Could it be for fun...

Volume in drive D is Design Data
Volume Serial Number is 1CB3-0074

Directory of D:\proe

shaozi.prt.12 xuezi.prt.2 power_varsec.prt.3
dian.prt.4 fff1.prt.1 z01.prt.1
fff2.prt.1 fff3.prt.1 rose.prt
modem.prt.2 tosater.prt.2 x-sports.prt.1
ear.prt.8 prt0003.prt.1 denglong2.prt.2
2a.prt.1 yangou.prt.8 fuliziyhg03.prt.7
luowen.prt.1 sanjiao.prt.18
20 File(s) 14,402,605 bytes
0 Dir(s) 1,167,491,072 bytes free

It seems there really are such suffixes. I'm ignorant.

I said that searching the entire partition is relatively slow. Maybe you terminated the program before it finished executing, leading you to think it couldn't be found. Can you capture a screenshot of the final result of the execution and post it?

After replacing the search file with *.prt.*, running the following content after the search will exit the execution...

The old files to be deleted are:

So the original file name is like this. Change the code of 7F to the following code. Because of the sort reason, it is only valid for suffixes with numbers within 10. Please test again:

@echo off cd.>tmp1.txt cd.>tmp2.txt for /f "delims=" %%i in ('dir /a-d /b /s d:\*.prt.*^|findstr /i "\.prt\.*$"') do echo %%~xi "%%i">>tmp1.txt sort /r<tmp1.txt>tmp2.txt echo The old files to be deleted are: for /f "skip=1 tokens=1*" %%i in (tmp2.txt) do echo %%j del /q tmp1.txt tmp2.txt pause

LZ, take a look. This is a BAT I got from my colleague who is developing products for the company. But we're using PROE Wildfire Edition 2.0. I don't know if it's useful for your 3.0!

@echo off cls title Purge Subs if !%1==! goto nopath if not exist %1*.* goto badpath :start title Purge Subs from %1 call :subpurge %1 FOR /D /R %%a IN (*.*) do call :subpurge "%%a" goto complete :subpurge echo Purging, %1 cd "%1" call purge.bat goto :EOF :nopath echo. echo ERROR - No path provided.... echo. echo You must provide a path when calling %0 goto complete :badpath echo. echo ERROR - "%1" is not a valid path.... echo. echo You must provide a valid path when calling %0 goto complete :complete echo. pause exit

The following is the content of the PurgeProSubs.INF file:

Copy it to your computer, save it as PurgeProSubs.INF, then right-click on that file and select Install. Then save the above batch code as PurgeSubs.bat, and copy it to the BIN subdirectory under the PROE installation directory. Then go back to the directory above proe2001, right-click on proe2001, and there will be an extra "pro/E Purge Subs" option in the right-click menu!

Although it's a post from last year, still need to re! Come to support jm's board.

Copy the following two lines of text into Notepad and save as Purge_ProE.bat file:

::Code by oicu#lsxk.org 2007/12/10, for Windows 2000/XP
@for /r %%i in (.) do @cd /d "%%i" & call purge.bat

Usage conditions and methods:
For Windows 2000/XP with ProE 2001/Wildfire2.0 installed, Wildfire 3.0 and 4.0 haven't been tested, should be applicable as well. This batch script actually calls the Purge file that comes with ProE.
