Damselfly VS Roslyn

Code is here if you're interested: https://github.com/Webreaper/Damselfly/blob/master/Damselfly.Core/Services/ExifService.cs - although this may be overcomplicated for OP's needs, and just a Process Launch is all you really need.

Here's mine: https://github.com/Webreaper/Damselfly/blob/master/Damselfly.Core.Utils/Utils/EventConflator.cs

Okay, released this today: https://github.com/Webreaper/Damselfly/releases/tag/4.0.5

Not quite at 1,000 github stars, but getting there: Damselfly

I've been developing with C# on Macs for years. I built this, which I develop on Mac and run on Linux. Some people run it on Macs, some run it on Windows. https://github.com/webreaper/Damselfly

(my project: https://github.com/webreaper/Damselfly)

Have a go with my app then (https://github.com/webreaper/Damselfly) and see if the maps are better. It's free, and you can run it alongside Photoprism with no ill effects.

Sorry, in a few threads this morning and thought I'd linked it here. It's Damselfly

The C# compiler has an MIT license and is available on GitHub, which is about as FOSS as it gets.

My understanding is that the .NET team is working toward this with Interceptors: https://github.com/dotnet/roslyn/blob/main/docs/features/int...

.NET is a little smarter about switch code generation these days: https://github.com/dotnet/roslyn/pull/66081

Recently, while creating some experimental C# source code generators (xafero/csharp-generators), I was just concatenating strings together. Like you do, you know, if things have to go very quickly. If you have a simple use case, use a formatted multi-line string or some template library like scriban. But I searched for a way to generate more and more complicated logic easily - like for example, adding raw SQL handler methods to my pre-generated DBSet-like classes for my ADO.NET experiment. You could now say: Use Roslyn and that's really fine if you look everything up in a website like SharpLab, which shows immediately the syntax tree of our C# code.

At runtime, the Case C# expressions are embedded into a function and dynamically compiled into an assembly using the Roslyn C# compiler. Then the function that contains the expression is called (e.g. CaseAvailableFunction.Availablle()). At runtime, the function provides various methods to access stored case values as well as the current input data.
