Iconifying JFrame

I have an application that runs in Windows only. I would like to iconify the main window (JFrame) but still have the application running. We would like to have it show the icon on the taskbar where all the little icons of deamons and applications such as Instant Messenger are. Is there a way to do that?

Thanks!

This library worked well for me. http://jeans.studentenweb.org/java/trayicon/

I'm guessing you mean the system tray. If so, see http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/awt/SystemTray.html

You can hide the window upon iconification (so that it does not appear in the taskbar) by calling

frame.setVisible(false);

Cheers
