How to navigate to another URL (not LogOff)

[achim_hauck2]

Hi,

how can I programnmatically navigate to another URL within a WD-Application? I don't want to Logoff (and destroy the logon ticket - the ticket should stay valid).

I can do it with a LinkToUrl-element, but how can I do it in my Code? I need this functionality in an ActionButton.

hi achim,

you need not create an outboundplug. Just create an action for a button. In <b>onAction<actionname></b> method write the below code. it should work.

<b>wdthis.wdGet<<i>windowname</i>>InterfaceviewController.wdFirePlug("www.sdn.sap.com");</b>

Gopi,

there's no wdThis.wdGet...Controller available in my View ;-(

what's available is:

wdThis.wdGetAPI().firePlug(IWDOutboundPlugInfo plug, Map parameters)

kr, achim

There should be a possibility to put the functionality of a LinkToURL-UI element to a Button....

Hi all,

I have the same problem with Web Dynpro for ABAP.

I created a suspend plug and a resume plug on the MAIN window.

Additional I created a button on my view. Which logic has to be added to navigate to an external application?

Thanks for your help.

Best regards

Hi Achim,

Have you tried using the suspend/resume plug technique? There is another thread by Etnaya which describes how it works.

Best regards,

Thanks for all the anserw, unfortunately none of them work for me...

Armin: your code creates a new window, but I want to use the same window (like a LinkToURL would do)

Gopi: If I create a OutboundPlug and fire it, I receive a error message that no link is attached to the Outbound plug

Mukesh: the app runs not in portal

Thomas: we use Netweaver SP04, I suppose there are no suspend/resume plugs available yet.

You can check at the window. If you were able to create them, they are available. Resume plugs are inbound plugs. Suspend plugs are outbound plugs.

Thomas,

as I supposed, no suspend plugs available...

Achim,

<i>Gopi: If I create a OutboundPlug and fire it, I receive a error message that no link is attached to the Outbound plug</i>

Mark plug in question as "Exit" and create sole parameter "Url" of type string for it.

Hi Achim,

Try this

WDPortalNavigation.navigateAbsolute("ROLES:Pathof theIview",WDPortalNavigationMode.SHOW_INPLACE,(String) null,

(String) null, WDPortalNavigationHistoryMode.NO_DUPLICATIONS,(String) null,(String) null,"Parameter=parametervalue");

hi,

In onAction<buttonname>

write the below code.

wdthis.wdGet<windowname>InterfaceviewController.wdFirePlug("www.sdn.sap.com");

Use

IWDWindowManager.createNonModalExternalWindow(String url, String title);
