I am developing a project in which there is an GUI which inturn will call a console . I have made it into an jar file now.
Here comes the problem. When i run the jar files , i don't get a console. While going through this forum, i came to know that jar runs using javaw.exe and this stops it from bring the console up.
Please suggest me a way of running the jar file through java.exe or any other method by which i can get an new console poping up.
PS : i cannot start the application itself in a system console , because the Console mode is an added feature and it is not to be displayed every time but only when the user intends to.
