that might be some kind of a silly question for you guys, but anyways: Is it possible to start the Java-console (as it is shown in Eclipse) parallel to the actual SWT-GUI? The console contains an awful lot of debugging-information and I want my testers to be able to see what's currently going on. Obviously, they're not gonna use Eclipse...

Start your program using java instead of javaw.

Another way is that you abstract your logging mechanism so that it uses console if one is attached to the process (when started with java or within Eclipse) or puts the messages in a separate window the user can open if they want.
