A simple application that hides the JVM console window while your JVM GUI runs
Hide JVM Console Windows
This simple application allows you to hide Java VM console window when you start your Java GUI application. That problem exists only for Windows, of course. If anyone can point me to a more simple solution, I'd appreciate it.
This application (JStart) was designed under Visual Studio 6 and tested for Windows NT V4.0 and Windows 98 and for JRE 1.2.2.
How to Use JStart
It is simple:
JStart [-hide] appbatfile.bat
Here is a small trick. Your command line for your Java VM app should be put inside a batch file (e.g., appbatile.bat). Otherwise, JStart will hide the GUI application as well. :)
It's definitely a problem with inheritance of console, handlers, etc. If anyone can dig out a solution for this, please let me know.
