Compiled application and -e flag

Hello. I am trying to deploy a compiled .m file using the Matlab Compiler. I can run the compiled program fine using

mcc -m compiletest.m

However, if I use mcc -e compiletest.m (in order to have no console window appear), the application will open and run, however it will not stay permanently open. My program creates a Java JFrame window. After a few seconds, the JFrame window will close. As I am trying to deploy a JAVA GUI, I would love to remove the console using the -e option. My Guess is that matlab is checking for a matlab figure window, and because there is only a JFrame, it can not find one. Then it exits. Any ideas??

As a simple example, this is compiletest.m

frame = javax.swing.JFrame();

frame.setTitle('any');

frame.setVisible(true);

pause

which creates compiletest.exe

Thanks

"pause" is known to cause problem in standalone applications. Modify your code as below so that JFrame will not disappear

frame = javax.swing.JFrame();

frame.setTitle('any');

frame.setVisible(true);

waitfor(frame);

Compile above code using '-e' flag so that the console window does not appear.
