Moving to Framework/Launcher.
Andrew, do you know how to control this?
Comment 3 Andrew Niefer CLA 2010-08-12 13:21:23 EDT 
Specifying -vm java\bin\java.exe is executing the console version of the java exe in its own process. That console is displayed by the OS.  I don't know if there is anything we can do about its icon.

You will get a console using the eclipse icon if you instead specify one of these:
-vm java\bin
-vm java\jre\bin
-vm java\jre\bin\client\jvm.dll

Nothing to do here.
