ImageJ/Fiji - quit after script/macro

[Rainer M. Engel]

Hello everyone,

is there a way to quit (close the application itself) ImageJ/FIJI after
script/macro execution?

I tested a macro which creates a text file.

//..........................................
print("Hello World");
file = File.open("path/myfile.txt");
print(file, "Hello World");
File.close(file);
//..........................................

It worked from FIJI as expected also from command line via -batch. Then
I tried the headless mode but it didn't work anymore. Although headless
mode quits the application at the end. Does it?

Running a macro in batch mode is fine for me, due to the log-output
giving feedback during execution. Mmmh...

Any help, tips appreciated.

Regards,
Rainer

Dear Rainer, oh that's me ;-)

Serious.. I made the mistake to change from -macro to -batch in the
command line. I made that only to confuse myself..

I like:
The way I can batch macros via command line with (-batch). In headless
mode not all functions seem to work. Curtis wrote about that here..
http://imagejdocu.tudor.lu/doku.php?id=faq:technical:how_do_i_run_imagej_without_a_graphics_environment_headless

What I would like to be able:
Use the command line to send a macro to ImageJ/FIJI. Using -macro works
and executes the macro, but after that the GUI is still visible. What I
want to achieve is a "batch mode" with a visible GUI during macro
execution. This would be nice for feedback purposes during execution.

Is that possible somehow already?

Regards,
Rainer

Yes, it is unfortunate that not everything works in headless mode. To
address this was one of ImageJ2's design goals.

You can always run 'run("Quit");' at the end, or if that does not work for
you (it does work here): eval("script", "System.exit(0);");

Ciao,
