Hey there, all. I just complied a program in C++ on Microsoft Windows 7 Ultimate (MinGW). The only problem is that when I run it a command prompt also runs with it in the background, and can't figure out how to remove it. Any ideas?

I think a better description of the problem would help -- not the code...

Put this at the beginning of main() to hide the window and include windows.h ShowWindow( GetConsoleWindow(), SW_HIDE);

I know this is old, but I'll post a solution and mark it solved. Compile with:

gcc -mwindows -c file.cpp -o file.exe
