Console opens when running GUI C++ application

I'm currently making a C++ GUI application, but I have the following problem. In the program I have one MyForm.cpp and one Myform.h (just one button). When the application starts the console and the form opens. Is this default? Or how can I disable it? The code in the main is:

#include "MyForm.h"

using namespace System;
using namespace System::Windows::Forms;

[STAThread]
int main(array<String^>^ args)
{
    Application::EnableVisualStyles();
    Application::SetCompatibleTextRenderingDefault(false);

    Namespace::MyForm form;
    Application::Run(%form);
}

Hope that someone can help?

Add this in your .pro file :

ENTRY = mainCRTStartup

OR

in VS, right click on your project -> properties -> linker -> system

And select "Windows (/SUBSYSTEM:WINDOWS)" for SubSystem.

If you are using a CRT build and there is no WinMain function you can use this:

#pragma comment(linker, "/SUBSYSTEM:windows /ENTRY:mainCRTStartup")//hide console window

to hide the console.
