Beginner question exifr returns errors

ruby-talk
1

Hello everyone,

I've a piece of code that looks for 'jpeg' files and reads their exif and then puts them into appropriate folders. Some times 'bad formated' jpeg-files gives me a runtime error on the exifr call.

How can I avoid this ? In the case of a bad formated jpeg file I would like to be able to read the next one, without interrupting the program

My code is :

···

---------------------------------------------------------

   if (File.stat(f).ftype == "file") and (f.include? ".jpg" or f.include? ".JPG") then
       j = EXIFR::JPEG.new(f)

       if j.exif? then

         my_date = j.date_time_original.to_s.split
         my_month = my_date[1]
---------------------------------------------------------

thanks for your answers

You can rescue the exception and log it, ignore it, whatever.

HTH,
