Jar file not displaying (closes too fast)

Whenever I double click a .JAR file OR run it from the console (cmd) it appears briefly for a split second and then disappears.

I have written a very basic program, with a GUI, and I was hoping to see it displayed. How do I make the JAR file visible for myself?

Run the .jar file from the command line, using: 

java -jar path/to/your/File.jar

By doing this, the window won't close after the application finishes executing so you can see any errors.
