Something like a function/method in batch files?

Question

is there anything that mimicks a method like one knows it from Java, C# etc.? I have 5 lines of commands in a batch file, those 5 lines are used at more than one place insid

Answer 1

Placing the reusable functions into a separate batch file would certainly work to simulate a function.

The catch is that you have to use the call command in order to ensure that control returns to the caller after the second batch file finishes executing.

call 5lines.bat
echo this will now get called
