Browser object and getUrl() [message #76738]

Hi,

I use org.eclipse.swt.browser.Browser.setText(html) method. RAP makes
the generated iframe point to an html file (i.e.
http://127.0.0.1:8085/browsertext-1493615760.html).

How can I get back the URL of this generated html file
(http://host:port/browsertext-[0-9]*.html)?

I understand that getUrl() returns the URL previously set by setUrl().
So getUrl() returns null when setText() has been used instead of setUrl().

Would it be possible to have a method on Browser returning its "real"
URL (the one set in the generated iframe)?

Thank you very much in advance for your support.

Best regards,

Benoit

Hi,

as RWT implements a subset of SWT (and this means as far as possible
also a semantical one) we can not change the behavior to the one you
proposed. This is necessary to allow as much as possible single sourcing
between RAP and RCP applications.

Ciao

Thank you for your reply Frank. Since my goal in trying to get the
generated URL was to make the iframe scroll to a custom anchor contained
in it, I managed to achieve that goal via browser.execute("some
javascript code") method.
