I'd created a JFrame
and want to hide in taskbar
(in windows
not visible right in the bottom but hidden in the tray menu items
).
Can anybody tell me how to do that?
Did I need to make some changes in System settings of windows
?
for example, you might have seen some download managers
, team viewer
, 4shared desktop
, etc. are hide in taskbar's tray menu items.

setSize(300, 200);

public static void main(String[] args){
new HideToSystemTray();
}
}
This is the working program!
