What is the organization of the EQSL image download directory?

I can see that the images in the EQSL image download directory are arranged by years, but I can't make sense of the subfolders. They are increasing numbers, e.g., 1,6, 15, etc. I thought at first the number might be the day of the year (1 to 365), but I see the numbers go well beyond 365.
Thanks in advance.

I think you will find its a Log4OM internal reference to enable the QSL to be linked to the QSO or download, only Lele can answer this

That would make more sense then some of the theories I have come up with.
Thanks for getting back to me.

My eQSLs are arranged in the DXCC "Entity" Numbers, i.e., 1=Canada, 291=USA K/N/W, 248=Italy, 223=G/GX/M, etc.

Now that does make sense!

We learn something every day, why did I not think of that

Path is build as follow:
If STATION CALLSIGN is not set in your log
\GENERIC\ + year + \ + dxcc
else
\<STATIONCALLSIGN>\ + year + \ + dxcc
That way you can have all QSL of a specific year, divided into dxcc codes.
This helps keeping the number of files into folder to a reasonable number even for large logs.
Nerds will enjoy
Code: Select all
try
{
string path = string.Empty;
#region Path
if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(qso.StationCallsign))
{
path = Constants.Log4OMQSLFolder.TrimEnd('\\') + "\\GENERIC\\";
}
else
{
path = Constants.Log4OMQSLFolder.TrimEnd('\\') + "\\" + qso.StationCallsign.Replace("\\", "-").Replace("/", "-") + "\\";
}
path += qso.QsoDate.Substring(0, 4) + "\\";
if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(qso.Dxcc) == false && qso.Dxcc != "0")
{
if (Directory.Exists(path + qso.Dxcc.Trim()) == false)
{
Directory.CreateDirectory(path + qso.Dxcc.Trim());
}
path += qso.Dxcc.Trim() + "\\";
}
else
{
if (Directory.Exists(path + "UNDEFINED") == false)
{
Directory.CreateDirectory(path + "UNDEFINED");
}
path += "UNDEFINED" + "\\";
}
#endregion
return path;
}
catch (Exception exc)
{
LogWriter.Write(exc);
return string.Empty;
}

Probably a little more in depth than I really need, but I do appreciate the reply.

Yes, deeper but usually some users like to open the car to see what is moving it... and sometime showing the code could be nicer and easier to understand...
