B4J Tutorial Compile non-ui, but don't run it yet

Building a headless app that I will wrap into an exe and run as a service, all is well compiling in debug mode, but when switching to release I want to compile to .jar but NOT run it. Workaround is to use task manage to kill it, which gets complicated if you have more than 1 java app running, so is there a way to compile in release without running?

The simple way to kill it is with the kill process button:

Another option is to compile it with the command line compiler.

Yes Erel , some IDEs get Build option which just generate the executable (exe for example) without running it .
Why don't B4X have such feature ?
