调用另一个批处理文件的调用批处理文件失败

Question

I have a batch file a.bat that effectively looks like this:

call some.bat

java -cp "saxon9he.jar" net.sf.saxon.Transform  abc.xml des.xsl > des.xml

call subfolder\other.bat

And the other.bat in subfolder effectively looks like this:

call yet_another_batch.bat

java -cp "../saxon9he.jar" net.sf.saxon.Transform any.xml try.xsl > try.xml
java -cp "../saxon9he.jar" net.sf.saxon.Transform ../some.xml test.xsl

So in the first file ( a.bat ), I call another batch file in the same folder and some xsl scripts in the same folder that write xml files into the same folder. From the first batch script ( a.bat ) I'd like to call the subfolder\\other.bat . However, when I do that, it fails to call the yet_another_batch.bat in subfolder and also the xsl scripts in subfolder and it doesnt find the saxon9he.jar.

What's the correct way to do this? Do I have to add the folder name to all the files referenced in the subfolder\\other.bat ? Seems a little cumbersome. I'm on Windows 7, if that changes anything.

Answer 1

Add two lines lines to other.bat like this:

pushd "%~dp0"
call yet_another_batch.bat

java -cp "../saxon9he.jar" net.sf.saxon.Transform any.xml try.xsl > try.xml
java -cp "../saxon9he.jar" net.sf.saxon.Transform ../some.xml test.xsl
popd

Using pushd , other.bat will execute it's commands from it's own folder. popd sets it back so the directory will not be changed when you return in a.bat
