How to close a java swing application from the code
- by hstoerr
What is the proper way to terminate a Swing application from the code, and what are the pitfalls?
I'd tried to close my application automatically after a timer fires. But just calling dispose() on the JFrame didn't do the trick - the window vanished but the application did not terminate. However when closing the window with the close button, the application does terminate. What should I do?
