Browser widget issue [message #449015]

I am attempt to use the Browser widget on windowsXP. The webpage that I am
displaying has javascript on it that opens another window to handle login
requests. This other window is implented using an application window that
only holds a Browser widget and nothing else. This window pops up in a very
small size but the widget itself never populates. I was wondering if anyone
had some example code that would simulate a real web browser better than
this. I have done this in the past in a similar case but the page that was
being opened didn't have all the code that this one has.

Frustrated....

I figured out the population issue. Now the problem is that I have no idea
how to set the size of the window. When this is viewed through IE, the
window sizes just fine. Is there a sizing event that I am missing maybe?

Man, i am just answering my own questions here today. I figured out how to
set the size but I am getting an initial size that displays before I can
react to the WindowVisibility event. How do I create the application window
hidden? The code seems to require that I open the ApplicationWindow to
create the browser widget. This allows me to set the visibility listener but
the act of showing the window forces a default size and visibility.

Hi Jim,

The javadoc for org.eclipse.swt.browser.WindowEvent outlines the typical
steps, in particular the following ones.
In response to OpenWindowListener.open: typically create a new Shell (but
don't call shell.open) and a new Browser.
In response to VisibilityWindowListener.show: set the size of the Shell and
invoke shell.open.

For a complete example, you can use the code from the SWT Browser Example.
Source code of the main class is here. That class takes care of handling the
WindowEvent's.
http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/org.eclipse.swt.exa mples/src/org/eclipse/swt/examples/browserexample/BrowserExa mple.java?rev=HEAD&content-type=text/vnd.viewcvs-markup
It is part of the Eclipse "Example plug-ins" on the download page. You can
run it as a plugin from Windows > Show View > Other > SWT Examples > Web
Browser.
