I know this project look stupid, but it do help user who don't know the ipconfig. Here is my problem.
1. I have bug in my batch, since some command fail an don't go to the error page.
2. (I don't expect much in this one :)) Since windows xp don't come with choice, I insert choice.com an choice.exe in the same folder but, I want to set choice.com as default to run in the same folder of the batch (for max compatibility) but if the batch encounter a 64 bit xp, vista (won't work with choice.com I think) it will run choice.exe
3. Feel free to improve my code :) Maybe is going to be a open source batch ;D
p.s. Sorry for my bad English! an feel free to use but lets me have some credit ;)

Could you clarify your problem more thoroughly?
-
I think my error level are wrong in the release an renew section since they failing but they still jump on the line saying it was a succes. But I want to make them jump in the line telling the command fail. Anyway is more for improving purpose than helping purpose i think :P
but for the helping part is more about the nul>2&1 if my syntax was correct or my error level.
-
yes, why all the 1's and 2's and ampersands? Why not just:
Pause > NUL
Just a redirection, rather then try to send to output to the number 1, whatever that could mean.
-
Well is my second batch file i made an im not even sure why I insert the 1 inside. My first 1 was hello world. But im a newby at batch an I though adding this void will redirect any error (also hide the error message) to the error level or stop making a void file in my folder. Is more experimenting an im trying to learn. ??? Sometime I'm not too sure myself what I add in my code =_='. Anyway I have posting this for feedback so it will help me to learn more about batch. p.s. for me making this useless batch file was kinda hard but I try to make it right.
-
ok, so you can probably replace them with a single redirection to NUL, without the 1's and 2's, - the redirection to NUL should eliminate the display of any error. In fact- the ampersand executes another command and in this case your executing "1"- this is likely to change the errorlevel, as well.

Thank you very much! I think it solve the errorlevel (or most) bug in it (I also need more testing to be sure...) Anyway here the update version. My objective is to make a installer to help people without knowledge to run ipconfig an also for myself :P (Im to lazy to run cms in run). Also i want to make it open an make this batch better.

anyway I also need to master the <<if>> combined to the <<ver|find>> To check the os version an run the appropriate choice. (Gona be a challenge for a newbie like me :o)
-
hmm, I suppose that could be done using
ver | find "98" > NUL
if errorlevel EQU 0 goto WIN98
ver | find "XP" > NUL
if errorlevel EQU 0 goto WinXP
etcetera...
a more robust method would be to, instead of search for key strings like 98 and XP, to search for entire version numbers. in the case of windows 98, "4.10" would find both 4.10.1998 (First edition) and 4.10.2222 (Second edition). Additional numbers (for your info) :)

good luck!
-
I guess is google time ;D Im still going check this tread if some people post they feedback or subjection- what to add or what to remove. Until then I do some search an make modification to my code an repost it someday day. I also need to learn how to force the batch to use choice.exe or .com in the same folder of is location.
-
if you want to force usage in the current directory, you can specify the current directory using "."
IE:
.\choice.com
-
Just a question...why do you NEED choice? For the code, couldn't you just use set /p???
-
set /p is so much easier to use. Choice is a waste of time in my opinion. You have to get all the errorlevels right. It's just a mess.
-
If he's examining windows versions, there is a chance he wants the batch to run on windows 98, in which case SET /P is not available.
-
Because for me choice is more compatible with older os (maybe i can be wrong!) Because I actually don't know if the set, set /p an if/else command are working on older os. Can windows 3.1 handle it? Dos? Anyway my batch is getting outdated thx to BC_Programmer tip ;) After making a batch that will work with windows command, i'm gona attempt to make a standalone batch to show how much is powerful. I think the set /p command was introduce in the nt family (I can still be wrong). Im gona attempt to make a batch file that will run in many os! (is stupid since each os got is own command, but the main purpose of this batch is to learn an attempt to make it fail less)
Also i need to find if I can insert all the required command in a installer an deploy it without copyright trouble (or insert open command, like freedos or else)
Example it will use the build it command if possible (for better compatibility) or use it own command. (maybe it will work in the first version of dos ;D)
(Don't trust my information because this is what I think! If im wrong (example about the choice, ect....compatibility) let me know since I want to learn)
-
If he's examining windows versions, there is a chance he wants the batch to run on windows 98, in which case SET /P is not available.
You right! In other word : I'm attempting to make my batch the more compatible possible :)

If you are making your script backwards compatible with Win9x, then be sure to modify your IPCONFIG commands because the Win9x version of IPCONFIG is very different from the Windows 2000 / Windows XP version of IPCONFIG
C:\Win98>ipconfig /?
Windows 98 IP Configuration
Command line options:
/All - Display detailed information.
/Batch [file] - Write to file or ./WINIPCFG.OUT
/renew_all - Renew all adapters.
/release_all - Release all adapters.
/renew N - Renew adapter N.
/release N - Release adapter N.
C:\WindowsXP>ipconfig /?
USAGE:
ipconfig [/? | /all | /renew [adapter] | /release [adapter] |
/flushdns | /displaydns | /registerdns |
/showclassid adapter |
/setclassid adapter [classid] ]
where
adapter Connection name
(wildcard characters * and ? allowed, see examples)
Options:
/? Display this help message
/all Display full configuration information.
/release Release the IP address for the specified adapter.
/renew Renew the IP address for the specified adapter.
/flushdns Purges the DNS Resolver cache.
/registerdns Refreshes all DHCP leases and re-registers DNS names
/displaydns Display the contents of the DNS Resolver Cache.
/showclassid Displays all the dhcp class IDs allowed for adapter.
/setclassid Modifies the dhcp class id.
The default is to display only the IP address, subnet mask and
default gateway for each adapter bound to TCP/IP.
For Release and Renew, if no adapter name is specified, then the IP address
leases for all adapters bound to TCP/IP will be released or renewed.
For Setclassid, if no ClassId is specified, then the ClassId is removed.
Examples:
> ipconfig ... Show information.
> ipconfig /all ... Show detailed information
> ipconfig /renew ... renew all adapters
> ipconfig /renew EL* ... renew any connection that has its
name starting with EL
> ipconfig /release *Con* ... release all matching connections,
eg. "Local Area Connection 1" or
"Local Area Connection 2"

Thx for the notice GuruGary :) I will make some modification to my script.
