Search query with two "size:"-parameters

[Elbart]

Hello.

First: Thank you for the new versions of Everything. Now the best program for search became even better.

Second: I was excited to read that you've added a search-parameter to limit the result to certain filesizes.
So I played around with it and discovered two bugs, using version 1.3.1.636b.

Queries like

Code: Select all

ext:mkv size:<3gb

or

Code: Select all

ext:mkv size:>2gb

are working fine.

Then I tried to search for .MKV-files larger than 2GiB and smaller than 3GiB with the following query

Code: Select all

ext:mkv size:>2gb size:<3gb

but the results-window was empty, which couldn't be the case.

BUG 1:
After some experimenting I found out that with two size:-parameters, the "smaller than"-operator has to be placed behind the number to get results, i.e.

Code: Select all

ext:mkv size:>2gb size:3gb<

Code: Select all

ext:mkv size:3gb< size:>2gb

BUG 2:
With the following queries

Code: Select all

ext:mkv size:<3gb size:2gb>

Code: Select all

ext:mkv size:2gb> size:<3gb

Everything was showing all mkv-files larger than 1GiB and smaller than 2GiB.

Following this, trying

Code: Select all

ext:mkv size:<1gb size:>1mb

leads to zero results, but

Code: Select all

ext:mkv size:<=1gb size:>1mb

Code: Select all

ext:mkv size:<2gb size:>1mb

and

Code: Select all

ext:mkv%20size:<1024mb size:>1mb

show the files between 1MiB and 1GiB.

EDIT:
Further observations:

Code: Select all

ext:mkv size:>>2gb size:<3gb

shows all MKVs from 0b up to 2GiB.

Code: Select all

ext:mkv size:>=2gb size:<3gb

shows all MKVs between 1 and 2GiB.

Code: Select all

ext:mkv size:>2gb size:<=3gb

shows all MKVs between 2 and 3GiB.

Code: Select all

ext:mkv size:>2048mb size:<3072mb

does the same.

Code: Select all

ext:mkv size:>2gb size:<3072mb

also works.

Code: Select all

ext:mkv size:>2048mb size:<=3gb

works too.

Code: Select all

ext:mkv size:>2048mb size:<3gb

shows nothing.

Use range
ext:mkv size:2gb..3gb
ext:mkv size:2gb-3gb

[Elbart]

Use range
ext:mkv size:2gb..3gb
ext:mkv size:2gb-3gb

These operators have bugs, too:

Code: Select all

x   ext:mkv size:2048mb.3072mb
o   ext:mkv size:2048mb..3072mb
o   ext:mkv size:2048mb-3072mb

1-2 ext:mkv size:2gb.3072mb
1-3 ext:mkv size:2gb..3072mb
1-3 ext:mkv size:2gb-3072mb

x   ext:mkv size:2048mb.3gb
o   ext:mkv size:2048mb..3gb
o   ext:mkv size:2048mb-3gb

1-2 ext:mkv size:2gb.3gb
1-3 ext:mkv size:2gb..3gb
1-3 ext:mkv size:2gb-3gb

x   ext:mkv size:2097152kb.3gb
o   ext:mkv size:2097152kb..3gb
o   ext:mkv size:2097152kb-3gb

1-2 ext:mkv size:2gb.3145728kb
1-3 ext:mkv size:2gb..3145728kb
1-3 ext:mkv size:2gb-3145728kb

x   ext:mkv size:2048mb.3145728kb
o   ext:mkv size:2048mb..3145728kb
o   ext:mkv size:2048mb-3145728kb

x   ext:mkv size:2097152kb.3145728kb
o   ext:mkv size:2097152kb..3145728kb
o   ext:mkv size:2097152kb-3145728kb

x   ext:mkv size:2097152kb.3072mb
o   ext:mkv size:2097152kb..3072mb
o   ext:mkv size:2097152kb-3072mb

1-2 = files between 1 and 2GiB are shown
1-3 = files between 1 and 3GiB are shown
x = no results
o = expected results

It seems there are problems with the "gb" unit when used with the smaller number.

Look at Help=>Search Syntactic
The correct is .. or - not just .(one dot)

function:start..end Is in the range of values from start to end.
function:start-end Is in the range of values from start to end.

function:start-end Is in the range of values from start to end.

Only added those with one dot because I typoed it in the program and it came up with a result anyway.

One more bug regarding "size:"

Using "size:<xmb" shows all files except those with sizes between x-1mb and xmb. This probably applies to kb and gb, too.

Thanks for the bug report.

The search: size:3gb is expanded to size:2147483649..3221225472
Searching for size:<3gb is actually searching for size:<2147483649, it should however be searching for size:<3221225472

I have fixed this for the next release of Everything.

For now, use the <= operator for correct results, for example:

Code: Select all

size:>2gb size:<=3gb
