Hi Ronaldo,

You can use the WDL.ShowMessage API to create a pop up in mobile applications.

Let me know if you need any more info on this.

Hi Madhu!

So, this APi only create a window message only pass string message to this.

So i need to create a popup window with a view that i create previously, it´s same case to use the createDialog of the webDynpro.

Thanks for reply and i wait for your answer.

Hi Ronaldo,

I suppose there is no such API for handheld applications.I have another suggestion.

You can also create another view (the popup view) and make it behave like a popup.

So, on an event handler of the first view, for ex click of a button, you fire the outbound plug of this view which is linked to the inbound plug of the popup view.This will bring up the popupview - the first view will be unloaded from memory.

In the popup view, on an event handler (for ex OK button), fire the outboundplug which is linked to inbound plug of first view.So the first view gets loaded when the Ok button is clicked.

To ensure that you dont loose the data on the first view, make sure that the controls on the view are bound to context attributes.

I hope this helps.Let me know if you have further queries.

Hi Ronaldo,

Unfortunately, pop up are not supported in the application developed using Mobile Applications for

Hand held perspective.Loading pop up view along with the source view is expensive for the device resources and hence not supported.

However, you can simulate popup like behavior as I mentioned earlier.
