Absolutely, problem is I can't figure out how that is done. &nbsp;My first thought is to include the following:<br />
<br />
@echo off<br />
java MyAWTApplication<br />
exit<br />
<br />
but the DOS window remains open during the life of the AWT app window and after the AWT app window has been closed. &nbsp;The DOS cursor just hangs with no prompt.<br />

When calling an AWT app from a .bat file, how do you close the resulting DOS window (the cursor is on a new line, but there is no prompt)?

open AWT app - finish/close DOS window

Java is a platform-independent, object-oriented programming language and run-time environment, designed to have as few implementation dependencies as possible such that developers can write one set of code across all platforms using libraries. Most devices will not run Java natively, and require a run-time component to be installed in order to execute a Java program.
