Return result to caller batch file
I have two batch files A.bat and B.bat. A.bat is calling to B.bat.
B.bat is doing some processing, and return back the result to A.bat. How A.bat can accept the return?
A.bat
@echo off
set str1=1,2,3,4,5
set str2=6,7,8,9
call B.bat %str1% %str2%
B.bat
@echo off
set str1=%1
set str2=%2
set str3=%str1%,%str2%
Expected that B.bat return %str3% (means 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9) back to A.bat file So that A.bat used the result for further processing.
