How to run packaged console app in terminal for mac

Currently when console app runs in mac no console or terminal is opened just icon appears in dock.

Hi @akhilmanikandan! Maybe is open /path/to/My.app what you are looking for?

akhilmanikandan commented 9 months ago

my java app is a console application, i realise now to open in console mode i have to put the path My.app/Content/MacOs/Universalapplicationstub

I was expecting like in windows when you double click it opens up in a terminal by default.

any way to change that behavior

Not sure, maybe we can include a terminal mode for macOS, so when double clicking your app, universalJavaApplicationStub startuo script opens a terminal and runs your app inside
