How can I make a batch file wait until another batch file has finished?
For example, I have:
echo hi >r.txt
echo some piece of code >>r.txt
start ar.bat
echo some piece of code >>ar.txt
I want the code after start ar.bat to execute only after ar.bat finishes executing. I tried without start and it works, but I want to run ar.bat in a separate window.
Is there any method to check whether ar.bat has finished?
Use
call ar.batto do it completely with batch file commands.Use
start /wait ar.batto get another window and wait for it to complete.
