Closing web browser from a Web Dynpro (ABAP) component in it

[PrasannaGunji]

Hi,

I am opening a Web Dynpro component in IE.

I have a requirement to close the Internet Explorer window on click of a "Close" Button in Web Dynpro (ABAP) component. I am using EXIT Outbound plug of the Main Window to perform the same.

In the EXIT plug I am setting "CLOSE_WINDOW" parameter to ABAP_TRUE.

On click of the "Close" button a pop-up dialog box (with "Yes" and "No" buttons) appears asking me whether I really want to close the IE window.

If I click on "Yes" button of the dialog box, the IE window gets closed without any issues.

But when I click on "No" button, the IE window shows up a blank screen. I want the control to come back to the calling Web Dynpro component's screen.

Appreciate any help/guidance in the above issue.

Thanks,

l_window type ref to if_wd_window,

l_parameter_list type wdr_event_parameter_list,

l_parameter type wdr_event_parameter,

l_val type ref to data.

field-symbols <fs> type any.

l_view_cntr = wd_this->wd_get_api( ).

l_win_cntr = l_view_cntr->get_embedding_window_ctlr( ).

l_parameter-name = 'CLOSE_WINDOW'."'CLOSE_WINDOW'.

create data l_val type c.

assign l_val->* to <fs>.

<fs> = 'X'.

l_parameter-value = l_val.

insert l_parameter into table l_parameter_list.

l_win_cntr->if_wd_view_controller~fire_plug(

Hi Prasanna,

you could maintain an own logoff page (tab error pages) in SICF for your WDA application. Do not use the closeWindow option in exit plug but use an explicit response page. In that page you could e.g. perform an autoclose during onload. When the popup appears and you click on "no", you can show a link to call the WDA application again.

Kind regards
