[tamayo]

Hi, i'm really newbie in java, I'm trying to follow some tutorials to learn java, and my question is:

I typed a console application, but after compile it, the app it doesn't appears in the screen, but it is loaded because I obtained a JOptionPane.showMessageDialog confirm everytime i executed this application. So, What I have to do for the application open in a DOS window?

In the void main function I tried the next:
serverchat sslx= new serverchat();

but doesn´t work, can you help me?

Java console applications do no open a console by default. If you are running your application by double clicking on its jar, this is not correct way to see console output.

You will need to open a DOS window and type something like this if it is the output is a jar file:

Code:

java -jar yourJarName.jar

If it is a class instead of jar, run it as follows:

Code:

java YourClassName
