You haven't said what platform you are developing on, but perhaps changing the Wireshark User Interface Preference of "Open a console window" from the default on "Never" to "Automatic (advanced user)" or even "Always (debugging)" would provide the console window you desire. It works for me when working in C. I typically run my Wireshark instanaces with Console mode set to "Always". If and when the console window is created, you will be required to also click on and close the console the console window to completely shutdown Wireshark. I hope this proves helpful.
