How to kill the second instance ?

[Former Member]

Hi

I am working on a pop window developement, where on click of a button from my main view, I populate some records in table format and show in a pop window. however, when there are large number of records, it takes a few more seconds to display the window and by that time, when we again click on the button, the second instance, gets intiated and throws a error ? what needs to be done / written to check/arrest/ validate that ?

thanks in advance

Hi Sathya

Store the window handle in a context and check the context before opening a window , open only if it is null . Clear the context after you close the window

Hi,

I feel that your problem can be solved if you give window.destroy() while closing the window instead of/along with window.close() as with the latter the instance would remain however the earlier clears any available instance.

Pls post your feedback

Noufal,

It is simply necessary to understand that:

1. <b>create</b> is paired with <b>destroy</b>

2. <b>show</b> is paired with <b>close</b>

3. [2] may be called only within [1]

Hi,

In the onAction function disable the button and enable it

after destroying the child window.

This is a "NO-OP" code, since currently all WD "pop-over" windows are modal
