Set the environment variables TMPDIR or MAGICK_TMPDIR to set the ImageMagick temporary file path.

What I do:

[*] download ImageMagick-6.5.4-Q16-windows.zip portable archive
[*] unpack to directory D:\temp\ImageMagick-6.5.4-10
[*] set temporary environment variable:

Code: Select all

MAGICK_TEMPORARY_PATH=d:\temp
MAGICK_TMPDIR=d:\temp

[*] call convert.exe from this directory for converting files from JPEG2000 to JPEG format.

convert.exe creates all the temporary files in

Code: Select all

D:\

directory instead of

Code: Select all

D:\temp

.

I have some sort of undelete program running on system and convert.exe quickly fills its work directory with temp files.
Setting 'MAGICK_DEBUG' environment variable to All/Trace etc along with '-verbose' cant print temporary directory acquired by convert.exe.

First, which command line options show me the temporary directory determined by convert.exe utility?
Thank you.
