I'm working on a .NET 6 application using the newly-released .NET Data API from R2022b to call Matlab functions contained in a ctf archive. I'd like to run Matlab out-of-process, and the OutOfProcessAttribute provided by the Matlab API appears to work beautifully for this purpose, except it pops up an empty command prompt window for each instance of ctfserver.exe that gets launched that lasts until the Matlab process is terminated. Is there a way to run the Matlab runtime out-of-process without displaying this window?
Thanks.

I have the same problem but with the C++ Data API ctf archive. When I run the my application using the OUT_OF_PROCESS flag the ctfserver.exe runs in a command window and the app consume 50 MB, and the app runs without any problem. When I use the IN_PROCESS flag the app consum 500 MB and crash. I still can't figure out how to hide the ctfserver.exe window.

This is what I did to remove the ctfserver.exe command window.
I am writing an application in Windows 10 using .NET 6 (the .exe) and MATLAB C++ Data API (the CTF is loaded in a native DLL) and a C++/CLI wrapper (another DLL) to connect the MATLAB DLL to .NET 6. Doing this allows me to work with the MATLAB arrays directly in C++ with zero copy, specially with complex number. Matlab uses std::complex<double>, so it is very convinient.
Now I was able to run matab using the IN_PROCESS flags. I disable every UI elements with the next options
std::vector<std::u16string> options = {u"-noFigureWindows", u"-nosplash", u"-nodesktop", u"-nodisplay"};
auto mode = MATLABApplicationMode::IN_PROCESS;
Since it worked, I stated to remove options until I found you only need the -nodisplay one
std::vector<std::u16string> options = {u"-nodisplay"};
auto mode = MATLABApplicationMode::IN_PROCESS;
So what I do is in debug mode I compile with the OUT_OF_PROCESS flag to avoid the lag when loading all the matlab DLL symbols (it can take forever). In release mode I switch to IN_PROCESS.
My guess is that some display or UI element are not compatible with the manage .NET 6 and it crash.

The following work around from AK of the MathWorks Support:
[DllImport("kernel32")]
static extern bool AllocConsole();
[DllImport("kernel32.dll")]
static extern IntPtr GetConsoleWindow();
[DllImport("user32.dll")]
static extern bool ShowWindow(IntPtr hWnd, int nCmdShow);
const int SW_HIDE = 0;
const int SW_SHOW = 5;
//in the initialisation function
if (GetConsoleWindow() == IntPtr.Zero)
{
AllocConsole();
}
var consoleWindowHandle = GetConsoleWindow();
// Hide the console window
if (consoleWindowHandle != IntPtr.Zero)
ShowWindow(consoleWindowHandle, SW_HIDE);
...
var _matlabRuntime = MATLABRuntime.StartMATLAB(ctfPath);
...
// To show the console window again (if needed)
//ShowWindow(consoleWindowHandle, SW_SHOW);
