At time I see the 0 hardcoded in the function all in
lib/gis/spawn.c
static int win_spawn(const char *cmd, const char **argv, const char **envp,
const char *cwd, HANDLE handles[3], int background,
int shell)
[...]
result = CreateProcess(
program, /* lpApplicationName */
args, /* lpCommandLine */
NULL, /* lpProcessAttributes */
NULL, /* lpThreadAttributes */
1, /* bInheritHandles */
0, /* dwCreationFlags */
env, /* lpEnvironment */
cwd, /* lpCurrentDirectory */
&si, /* lpStartupInfo */
&pi /* lpProcessInformation */
);
@devs: related documentation:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms682425(v=vs.85).aspx
--> therein page ref with the of "Process Creation Flags"
--> CREATE_NO_WINDOW
Did you try and this works then?
