OpenVINO demo and sample and setup .bat batch files

[Dig_Solutions]

We've just installed the Windows tool chain for Open VINO, latest version.

Upon running the first batch file "setupvars.bat", we have run into the observation that all calls made to python and pip are not preceded with the necessary "call".   This means that none of the batch files will execute past the first call to any python item because the "cmd" system in windows spawns off the call as a separate process and closes the parent process.

Is there a global remedy for this?

For example: (test.bat not working)

echo Foo

python --version

echo Bar

Output:

Foo

Python 3.8.10

Where as:

echo Foo

CALL python --version

echo Bar

Output:

Foo

Python 3.8.10

Bar

Without the "call" predecessor none of these scripts are going to work.......

Hello Digs_Solutions,

Greetings to you.

I reproduced the issue with my Windows 10 setup and was able to get the desired result with and without the CALL function. Note that I ran the batch file without the Windows toolchain installed. I share with you the screenshot of both outputs:

Without CALL function:

With CALL function:

This issue is more towards the Windows environment setup, we recommend that you send this question to a Windows-related forum for better reach.
