Getting a reply from a pop up to confirm

Question

Hi.
I was giving a popup to the user to confirm something using create_popup_to_confirm of the window manager.
Now, problem is I coded it in one method of the view.
I want to call this popup method now at different user interaction stages of the view - for eg loss of data, confirm save, confirm send mail etc. So I'd call this popup with different question text preferably.
Problem is that what I understand is that I have to subscribe to YES/NO event, and I can handle them at the YES/NO event handler only.
But I want to do different things based on from where the action was triggered.
For eg. If user pressed cancel without saving, after the popup i want to navigate to the start menu. If user pressed save and a mail is being sent, after the mail confirmation popup, i want to go to a different view.
This is just an example. Basically I want to know how to get the return value of what user has pressed in the popup.
If I write anything after the popup, that code is executed first before the popup is called.
Please note I know that we have to write the handler code in the event handler method.I wanted the return value "yes/no" after my popup has been showed at some point in the program.
Thanks in adv.

Hi Aishi.
AFAIK what you want is not possible. You have to use the event handler methods.
But you can handle it. Just an example:
I have a method which performs a navigation from one component to another.
If the component is dirty the user should confirm the navigation. The navigation
method takes the parameter has_confirmed as boolean.
User clicks link to navigate->method is called with has_confirmed = abap_false.
Method checks if component is dirty and if so pops up confirmation window and returns imediatly.
Now user confirms and corresponding event handler is called. Here I check whetrher user pressed yes and then call navigation methods again with has_confirmed = abap_true. Navigation will be perormed.
This is just an example on how you can handle this problem.
Hopes this helps a bit.
