You need to use the START command

Code: Select all

start "" "%DIR%\java" %JLINK_VM_OPTIONS% -m Test/org.openjfx.Main %*
The empty pair of quotes at the beginning is critical.

In this case it's likely the openjdk console which is still open (rather than the cmd console). I'm not familiar with openjdk. So I'm not able to give any advice here.

I'm not familiar with OpenJDK, but if it's similar to the JDK, then there are two executables:
One for windows ("javaw.exe") and one for the console window ("java.exe"). If you start the console version, then the console will stay open, because its streams (STDIN, STDOUT and STDERR) are connected with "System.in", "System.out" and "System.err". If you force the console to close, "java.exe" should also shut down.
