A Dialog that asks user to save file to their local filesystem [message #511156] Sat, 30 January 2010 09:46 Go to next message
Eclipse UserFriend
Hi all,

When our application throws exception we want users to be able to report
it by saving the stacktrace as text file and then send it via email.
This requires a Save As Dialog, but since RAP does not support File
Dialog does anybody know the alternatives ? Will FileUpload widget do
the job ?

Any advice will be greatly appreciated.


Regards,

Setya

Setya,

I guess what you are looking for is a download link to save a text file
with the stacktrace.
But if the information should be sent by email, why don't you send it
right away from within the application? That would save you the download
link. And it would save the user the process of downloading, attaching
and sending the stacktrace.

Sort of. When the exception occurs, the page will show a Hyperlink that
pops up a dialog to show the stacktrace, the dialog contains a button
that opens a 'Save As' dialog.

We already have plan for this feature in the future, but at the moment
we're still focusing on other things, so for now we ask user to send it
manually.
