Give a User a Downloadfile without DonloadUI

[Former Member]

Hi,

i have created an htmlfile. I want to tranfer this file to the client without any additional Button Or Ui click. The dialog "save as..." or "open with" should come immidiately.

I have an byte[] or  an IWDResource resource filled with data. But what's the next step???

kind regards

Hi Michael

Next step would be one of two:

1. To put a link on your page (implemented by Webdynpro FileDownload widget). User have to click the link and it ill bring the Save As/Open dialog. Just add FileDownload element and map it to your IWDResource in controller's context.
2. To open a new browser window with URL targeting your binary web-content. You can get URL referring to your resource from the code:

IWDResource webResource;
...
String resourceURL = webResource.getUrl(WDFileDownloadBehaviour.ALLOW_SAVE.ordinal());
IWDWindow win = wdComponentAPI.getWindowManager().createNonModalExternalWindow(resourceURL, <window title>);
win.show();

Hi,

Just call the download method defined in IWDResource interface. I mean assuming resource is the IWDResource form of the html file then write resource.download( ); to get the save, open popup.
