How to read output from a double click .jar file

I have exported a Java program to a .jar file. When I run it from the cmd, it works fine and shows me the output. When I try to double-click it, it surely starts (because it asks me for an input), but then I can't understand if it keeps working because I can't see any output. Any help?

You should write the output to a file or keep calling it from a batch file. The content of this file should be like:

java -jar yourJar.jar

Then you can doubleclick the .bat file. Make sure your JAR contains a manifest that specifies the main class.
