compiling more than one report via batch

I want to compile more than one report by using a batch file.

The batch file looks somewhat like this:

Set BIRT_HOME=D:\birt-runtime-4_2_1\

\birt-runtime-4_2_1\ReportEngine\genReport.bat -f pdf -o "realtest1.pdf" -p "mindate=2012-08-12"

\ws_birt\test_20_09_2012\parmstest2test_20_09_2012_report.rptdesign

\birt-runtime-4_2_1\ReportEngine\genReport.bat -f pdf -o "realtest2.pdf" -p "mindate=2012-08-12"

\ws_birt\test_20_09_2012\parmstest2test_20_09_2012_report2.rptdesign

Once the compilation of the first report-file is complete, the command line tool closes and the 2nd statement is ignored...

Is it just not possible to compile more than one report file with single batch file?

Hi Jason,

thanks for the answer.

Unfortunately i have already tried that and it's not working either.

The Command line just keeps closing after compiling the first report.

I just created a bat file with the following contents:

call genReport.bat -o c:/br/test2.pdf -f pdf samples/hello_world.rptdesign
call genReport.bat -o c:/br/test2.xls -f xls samples/hello_world.rptdesign

And it ran both reports before exiting.
