Generic Search

Question

Hi all
I have implementated a search method that open ups a new window.
IWDWindowInfo windowinfo =
   wdComponentAPI.getComponentInfo().findInWindows("Search");
IWDWindow window =
    wdComponentAPI.getWindowManager().createModalWindow(windowinfo);
   window.setWindowPosition(150, 100);
   window.show();
   wdContext.currentPopUpElement().setWindowInstance(window);
Now i want to make it generic so that same window opens up on every search but the data in it varies depending on the parameter passed.
In the above code no parameter is specified that should go into the new window (As per my requirement). Is there any way to  pass the parameter into the new window so that the data in that popup window can be changed depending on that parameter.
Guys please response.
This is really urgent.
Thanxs in Advance

Hi Gurmat,
Follow the steps.
Step1: Create a WD Component.
Step2:  Under Component Controller create a Value Node “EmployeeInfo” with attribute “EmployeeName” and “Position” and a context attribute “WindowInstance” of type “com.sap.tc.webdynpro.services.session.api.IWDWindow”
Step3: Create 2 Views
i>EmployeeView
Layout like
Employee Name : EmployeeInfo.EmployeeName(InputField)
Employee Position : EmployeeInfo.Position(InputField)
DisplayResultButton
ii>DisplayView
Layout like
Employee Name : EmployeeInfo.EmployeeName(TextView)
Employee Position : EmployeeInfo.Position(TextView)
CloseWindowButton
Step3: Create 2 Windows
1>EmployeeWindow
2>DisplayWindow.
Under “EmployeeWindow” add the “EmployeeView”
and “DisplayWindow” add the “DisplayView”
Step3: Go to the Diagram View. Do the mapping between “EmployeeView” and “Component Controller” and between “DisplayView” and “Component Controller”
Step4: Associate action “DisplayResult” with the “DisplayResultButton” and use this code inside the Implementation of “EmployeeView”
public void wdDoInit()
    //@@begin wdDoInit()
wdContext.nodeEmployeeInfo().addElement(wdContext.createEmployeeInfoElement());
    //@@end
public void onActionDisplayResult(com.sap.tc.webdynpro.progmodel.api.IWDCustomEvent wdEvent )
    //@@begin onActionDisplayResult(ServerEvent)
     IPrivateEmploeeView.IEmployeeInfoElement emp = wdContext.createEmployeeInfoElement();
     emp.setEmployeeName(wdContext.currentEmployeeInfoElement().getEmployeeName());
     emp.setPosition(wdContext.currentEmployeeInfoElement().getPosition());
     wdContext.nodeEmployeeInfo().addElement(emp);
     IWDWindowInfo windowInfo =(IWDWindowInfo) wdComponentAPI.getComponentInfo().findInWindows(
     "DisplayWindow");
//        create the Window
     IWDWindow window = wdComponentAPI.getWindowManager().createWindow(windowInfo, true);
     window.setWindowPosition(WDWindowPos.CENTER);
     window.setTitle("WindowTitle");
     window.setWindowSize(100,100);
//        Save WindowInstance in Context
     wdContext.currentContextElement().setWindowInstance(window);
//        and show the window
     window.show();
     //wdThis.wdFirePlugInDisplay();
    //@@end
Step5: Associate action “CloseWindow” with the “CloseWindowButton
” and use this code inside implementation of  “DisplayView”
  public void onActionCloseWindow(com.sap.tc.webdynpro.progmodel.api.IWDCustomEvent wdEvent )
    //@@begin onActionCloseWindow(ServerEvent)
   IWDWindow window = wdContext.currentContextElement().getWindowInstance();
   window.destroyInstance();
    //@@end
