I have a batch file to unzip a file, the path of the zip file and destination folder is hardcoded. I want to unzip different zip files to different folders. I don't want to edit the code all the time, Please some one help on this.
@echo off
setlocal
cd /d %~dp0
Call :UnZipFile "G:\tett\" "G:\test\test.zip"
pause
exit /b
This is my batch file, here I am giving the paths of the source and destination. I want to pass the source and destination as arguments to run this batch. Thanks in Advance!
Call :UnZipFile "%~1" "%~2"
will call the :unzipfile routine passing two parameters as supplied to the batchfile, so from the prompt,
yourbatchfile "parameter1" "parameter2"
will accept the two parameters and deliver them to the :unzipfile routine.
The parameters only need "quotes" if they contain separators line Space
%~1 means "remove the enclosing quotes (if they exist) from the first parameter.
I'll let you guess what %~2 means...
