Hi,
i already asked about embedding a texteditor a month ago... Since we
depend on Word documents, i choosed the following way:
I created an applet and embedded Word with the SWT OleFrame widget.
Surprinsingly this works :-)
The applet is deployed on a Tomcat and is displayed with the
BrowserWidget, which is in a modal Dialog.
Now it would be great to have a button, which saves the document AND
closes the dialog.
So far i tried three approaches:
1) close the Dialog/Browser and save the document in the Applets stop()
method
2) close the Dialog/Browser and call the save method of the applet with
javascript (onunload)
Both were unsuccessful, the code, which should save the document is
called, but it seems, that at this point it is too late to save
(OleClientSite.save(...) always returns false, strangely isDirty()
always returns true, even, if i didn't change the document).
(By the way, saving works before i close the Browser.)
3) go to a new URL after saving, this should be recognized by a
LocationListener of the Browser, so that he could be closed
I saw, that there is already a bug report. At the moment the
LocationListener is only called after Browser.setUrl().
Any ideas, how to solve this. Of course i could save and close
independently, but then changes are lost, if you close the Dialog
without saving.
Thanks
Magnus

Hi,
I would try to save the content of the document (however this is done within
the OleFrame) and after that sending a request to the RAP server
(Unfortunately I don't have much experience with applets, so hopefully there
is a way to do so...). The server could acknowledge the request by sending a
response that closes the dialog. This way the timing issues may be solved.
Ciao
