When launching jdeveloper a cmd window appears


When I launch jdeveloper a black command window appears with it, and never disappears. If I close it, Jdeveloper closes as well:

enter image description here

This window shows the log messages, where jdeveloper shows them as well in its Messages-log window.

How can I prevent this window from appearing.

The version: 11.1.1.6.0
The build: 6229

EDIT:

OK, TheNawaKer helped me in finding the following information:

Start Oracle JDeveloper from the command line by running one of the following commands:

  1. JDEV_HOME\jdeveloper\jdeveloper.exe
  2. JDEV_HOME\jdeveloper\jdev\bin\jdevw.exe
  3. JDEV_HOME\jdeveloper\jdev\bin\jdev.exe (to display a console window for internal diagnostic information)

Solution

  • You use JDev in debug mode. The console displays all logs of JDev. (jdev.exe or jdev64.exe on windows)

    Run this executable to start JDev in normal mode:

    • JDEV_HOME\jdeveloper\jdev\bin\jdevw.exe (or jdev64W.exe if on 64 bit windows)

    Side note: JDEV_HOME is the location where you installed JDeveloper.
