Closing Frames and Enter Buttons [message #117389]

2 questions:

1. My RAP/RCP application creates new AWT Frames that are not embedded
into the application. When I try to close them by clicking the "X" button
on the window, it will not close. The only way to close it in RCP is to
exit out of the application. In RAP, the only way to close it is to kill
the process through Eclipse...closing the window in the browser will not
also close the Frame's window. I need to be able ot close this AWTFrame
window when I click "X" or when I exit out of the application. How do I do
this?

2. In my RCP application, when I hit Enter in my combo/text box, it will
execute an operation...this is not the case in RAP. How do I get this
keystroke to work?

To my knowledge, it is currently not possible to use an AWTFrame in RAP.

That's a bummer for the Combo bug...i can just add a "go" button for the
time being.

As far as the first one...AWT frames don't work in RAP, but you can
execute AWT frames on the desktop in a new window, they just won't close
properly. I want them to close when the session closes. Is that possible?

Use ISessionStore#addSessionStoreListener() if you want to be
informed when the session terminates. The ISessionStore can be
obtained via RWT#getSessionStore().

I am not exactly sure what you mean by "execute AWT frames on the
desktop". Please bear in mind that - usually - RAP runs on the
server where there is no such thing as a desktop.
