Hi,

I have developed an application in Swing. Now when I start a process in the application and then start other applications say ms-word, now when my java process finishes it displays message as 'process finished' with ok button.

But as currently ms-word is my foreground process, java message appears at background and user has to press alt+tab to see the message.

My question is - Is it possible to bring the message to foreground overriding other applications?

Thank you.

Look at the API for Window, JFrame, JDialog, etc for a toFront() method.

There are no more "hours", it's centi-days. They say it's better, but this tiny ad says it's stupid:
