In the past, when working on a mod for a game and trying to troubleshoot problems my users had, I came across a big difficulty. My users had no clue how to find and send me a simple log file. Windows users are much less likely to be able/willing to do such a thing, than users of Linux, for example.
I'm trying to incorporate the ability to display a simple dialog box into my current project, giving the option to save the log file when the program ends with a non-zero value. Even better would be the option to open the log file in notepad or wordpad when the program exits.
If Launch4J could do this for me, that would be extremely useful and it would neatly solve my current issues (open log files), without having to cache the entire log in RAM or launching a second Java process to monitor the first for errors.
Thank you.
