function [] = batchProcess(funhandle, indir, varargin) | |
%BATCHPROCESS Process multiple files with given processing function | |
% BATCHPROCESS(FUNC, INDIR) processes every file or directory in | |
% INDIR using processing funtion FUNC. | |
% | |
% FUNC is a function handle that takes source filename and target | |
% directory as input variables. For example, if FUNC = @foo, then | |
% BATCHPROCESS calls foo(infile) to every infile in INDIR. | |
% | |
% BATCHPROCESS(..., 'para1', value1, 'para2', value2, ...) takes extra | |
% parameter-value pairs to handle input or output options. Parameters are: | |
% | |
% 'InputExtension' -- A string value of input file extensions, for | |
% example, BATCHPROCESS(@foo, INDIR, 'InputExtension','.jpg') | |
% will only convert jpg files in INDIR. | |
% | |
% 'StartWith' -- File to start processing, default is empty. | |
% | |
% 'EndWith' -- File to end processing, default is empty. | |
% | |
% 'Verbose' -- verbose the processing, false by default. | |
