I’m not looking to identify all duplicates. I want to know what unique data
might be on a disk labeled “backup"…. To determine this the software (rsync?)
must query an index of ALL specified drives where the original pathname may be
very different for each an every file. Can rsync perform the

I came across a tool :

I haven't used it for a long time - so not clue as to how (or if) it is has

I guess Git does a pretty decent job at tracking changes and movements in a
designated directory,
but if you feel 4D give you the strength and flexibility to do exactly what you
want,
I have nothing against it.

Chip, thanks for your input but no traditional rsync or clone tools or backup
software is up to the task…. Since the pathnames are guaranteed to be
different…

So I got an update for the plugin form Rob at Pluggers and now it works
fine.

Hi Chip,
The command "Select document” returns (as a function) only the document name.
To get the actual path, add the fifth optional parameter which is an array. The
first element of the array will have the full path to the saved document.
Using your code:
--
$File_Path->:=Select
Thanks David, thanks Jim and thank Chip for your replies. And sorry that I
didn’t post earlier.
It’is for reasons of organization of my software that I wanted to do that part
in an object method (actually, I have to create recursive links, so doing the
research in another process is the best
for simply synchronising two directories possibly on a separate volume,
rsync has been around for quite some time.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rsync
but I may be getting wrong the "this" in "anything that will do this".

and for multiple files, there is an optional array parameter to receive all
paths.

The Select Document dialog is fine, and shows the desired directory

I can enter a file name, no problem.
However...

Hi Jeremy,
A little over a year ago I transitioned one of my primary project from my
'roll my own' user system to using the 4D system. Primarily I wanted to get
out of the password security business as well as take advantage of some of
the native 4D security features. All of that gave me reason to
In 4D starting with v14, 4D no longer limits the lines to 60 chars when you do
BASE64_Encode. (it used to do that in v13)
As a result, some email servers reject the message (but not always).
After I split the lines in the Base64 encoded blob into 60 chars each (by only
using a line feed), the
Hi everyone,
for our 4D based DMS, we currently store the documents outside of the database

Robert,
It sounds like you are doing some really interesting stuff. It also sounds
like you might want to be looking for forensic tools already been built for
this sort of work.

You're welcome.
I need this as we store all attached files of e-mails in our DMS and here we
find truckloads of duplicates (logos in mail signatures, etc.)
In order to avoid blowing up storage we calculate a hash of every file and only
store uniques, and then link them to the appropriate source
Alex, thanks for the input. I thought it might be a good task for 4D. So how
or why do you need such a tool?
Btw: I don't really need the hash comparison if I had other file attributes.
I'll look at this again tomorrow.
Thanks,
Robert

Hi,
I use a similar Algorithm for optimizing document storage.
Pretty simple actually:
just troll through all directories recursively and store each file in a record.
You just need the path and the file hash which you can create with
DOCUMENT TO BLOB($t_DocPath;$x_Content)
$t_FileHash:=Generate
I need a utility that can scan a backup drive (or index) and identify what’s
unique to the backup volume without expecting identical pathnames on the other
drives... So, the routine would have to query (effectively a Finder Search for
each file) all specified drives looking for each file and
33 matches
