TrayIcon display message pops a window in mac

I am creating a creating java app in which I am displaying a Ballon message in system tray / notification bar. It displays a balloon message properly in windows(the balloon auto fades away in seconds) but on Mac machine it displays a window(which has to be closed purposely by the user). How can I achieve the same effect on Mac?
JAVA Code:

trayIcon.displayMessage("Caption", "text", MessageType);
Solution

  • You should be looking to integrate with Notification Center on Mac rather than using the old popup style. You can use one of the third party APIs to integrate with Growl to allow you to do this.
