Auto close console when game launched about portablemc HOT 8 CLOSED

I will try today but this looks impossible since the Minecraft process is a child of the launcher, if the parent is killed the Minecraft process might be killed, anyway let's see.

@mindstorm38 No it won't. If the launcher closed Minecraft won't close. Except if u run it in IDE. I use cmd to run PMC when I close the launcher it didn't close Minecraft. Anyway if you going to use a method that checks the javaw.exe process then close the launcher please don't use that method it will also include other things like Java IDE/Minecraft Launcher/.... Make it check the process that it's trying to run instead.

And one more thing. I tried to use subprocess .communicate(). But it freezes the whole UI. I tried to use QThread or Threading and MultiProcess. But the subprocess .communicate() ain't working 😐. If possible is there any other way I can pass the password from my launcher to PMC, like convert string to a byte and pass it via Popoen in the start command line and in your PMC u decode that byte to strings back. That way no real password show? I already tried my best😴.

from portablemc.

Have you tried with something like this?

import subprocess

class LauncherRunnable(QRunnable):

    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__()

    def run(self):
        subprocess.run(<args>)

QThreadPool.globalInstance().start(LauncherRunnable())

The threading process for the me is working fine. But the problem is that when the user launches the game more than one time which it's leads to console spam. But it's alright I will try my best to add it into your source code myself, thanks.
