ExternalBrowser.open(browserWindowId, url, SWT.NONE); [message #1131950] Thu, 10 October 2013 22:40 Go to next message

Hi,

we are migrating our rap app from 1.5 to 2.1.1.

We need the following logic in 1.5:

String browserWindowId = "uniqueId";
String url = "http://anyurl.com";
ExternalBrowser.open(browserWindowId, url, SWT.NONE);
..
..
..
ExternalBrowser.close(browserWindowId);


The mirgration guide states to use the new UrlLauncher server, but it
does neither provide a method to pass an id on openURL, nor does it
provide a methode to close the window previously opened. How do we do
this in 2.1?

Regards,
Markus

Hi Markus,
ExternalBrowser is deprecated, but still in place and fully functional.
The new UrlLauncher does not provide methods to specify window id or
possibility to close the window. This topic is still under
consideration. You could stay with ExternalBrowser for now.
Best,
Ivan
