Push Message to Multiple Devices in One Batch File

[Bill Norris]

Am wondering about a batch file to send push message to multiple devices. Have tried

b4a_c2dm.bat send device1 device2 device3 "GET_FILE"

Doesn't work

Have tried separating device names with comma, doesn't work

Have tried the following, putting all three lines in one batch file - doesn't work - only sends the message to device1

b4a_c2dm.bat send device1 "GET_FILE"
b4a_c2dm.bat send device2 "GET_FILE"
b4a_c2dm.bat send device2 "GET_FILE"

Any suggestions??

Your second solution should work. Do you get any error message?

re:

No error msg that I can see -- the batch file window disappears pretty quickly. Only the device in the first line gets the message.

Add a pause statement at the end of the batch file.

RE:

Instead of just dbl-clicking the bat file in windows explorer, I opened command prompt and went to folder with bat file so the cmd window doesn't close after execution. The first line executes and returns a success code and that's it. Does not appear to even attempt to execute remaining lines. No errors.

Apparently both of us are not experts with Windows batch files.

You should use the Call keyword to start another batch file:
Batch files - CALL

Another option is to copy the single line from b4a_c2dm.bat into your batch file.

RE:

Aha... I will give that a try.

RE:

I ended up using option 2 as I'm not really up on the % sign uses that are included in the CALL link you provided. Option 2 works fine. Thanks
