OptimizeDirectory Method

Leadtools.ImageOptimization Namespace > ImageOptimizer Class : OptimizeDirectory Method



codecs
The Leadtools.Codecs.RasterCodecs object used internally in the optimization operation to load an image and optimize it.
inputDirectory
A System.String that contains the full directory path to the images to be optimized.
outputDirectory
A System.String that contains the full directory path to be used when saving the optimized image(s).
options
The options used in the optimization process.
fileExtensions
A System.String that contains the extensions of the files to be optimized. For example:
  • To optimize all "gif" and "jpeg" files, fileExtensions should be set to "*.gif;*.jpeg".
  • To optimize all the supported files found in the inputDirectory directory, regardless of their extensions, fileExtensions should be set to "*.*".
includeSubDirectories
true to optimize sub-directories, false otherwise.
directoryCallback
Optional callback function that provides user information about the image(s) being optimized, such as the completion percentage for the current image being optimized, and the completion percentage for all files being optimized.

Optimizes a directory of images using the specified optimization options, and saves the optimized images to a new directory with the same original hierarchy.

Example

This example will optimize all Jpg files found in a specific directory, and save them into a separate folder
