minimize main() window

[vlip]

hi, i'm doing a program that using c++ with opengl. i'm having a problem that when i run the program, there come out 2 windows. 1 window will be the opengl window i created and 1 is the main() function window. so, is there any solution or any other way to keep the main() window to minimize or close it?

here my main() function code:

void main(int argc, char **argv)
{ glutInitDisplayMode( GLUT_RGB | GLUT_DOUBLE | GLUT_DEPTH );
glutInitWindowPosition(100, 100);
glutInitWindowSize(w1, h1);
main_window = glutCreateWindow("....");
glutDisplayFunc(display);
glutReshapeFunc(Reshape);
glutKeyboardFunc(keyboard);
glutSpecialFunc(myKey);
glutMouseFunc(mouse);
glutIdleFunc(display);
myInit();
glutMainLoop();
}

Are you talking about the console window ? If your'e using VS 6.0 you can get rid of the console window using the following method:

Add the following line to the beginning of your c code:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
// #pragma comment( linker, "/subsystem:\"windows\" /entry:\"mainCRTStartup\"" )
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


If it doesn't work, or your'e using a different environment,
try googling for "openGL console" etc.

yes, the console window.. it can now.. but are there any way to make it minimize instead of closing it?

thanks
