Remove Child Window from Parent using WIN API

Hello all,
I am using User32.dll to make a parent-child relationship between two VIs. I use SetParent function, and pass the handle of parent VI and child VI to this function. Now, after this relationship has been established, I want to remove the child window from the parent and use it as a independent VI using WIN API. Can anyone help me on this?
Thanks in advance!

You should be able to set a NULL handle to undo the parent-child relationship and make the child window again a normal top level window. Setting the desktop as parent is probably not the same as being a top level window.

  • Calling a function in child window from parent window

    Hi,
    How can I call a method in child window from parent window in adobe air using javascript. In the following example I need to call mytest() function in
    child.html from parent.html file.
    Thanks,
    ASM
    //parent.html
    <HTML><HEAD>
    <script>
    var initOptions = new air.NativeWindowInitOptions();
    initOptions.type = air.NativeWindowType.NORMAL;
    initOptions.systemChrome = air.NativeWindowSystemChrome.STANDARD;
    var bounds = new air.Rectangle(300, 300, 600, 500);
    var html2 = air.HTMLLoader.createRootWindow(false, initOptions, false, bounds);
    var urlReq2 = new air.URLRequest("child.html");
    html2.load(urlReq2);
    html2.stage.nativeWindow.activate();
    html2.window.mytest();       //NOT WORKING
    </script>
    </HEAD><body></body></HTML> 
    // child.html
    <HTML><HEAD>
    <script>
    function mytest()
      air.trace("in child window");
    </script>
    </HEAD> <body></body></HTML>

    I suspect your problem is that the child window hasn't been created by the time you call the function in the parent.Loading the content is an asynchronous processes -- AIR doesn't stop executing your code until the window has finished loading child.html. So, you will need to add an eventlistener to html2 and call the function from there:
    html2.addEventListener( "complete", onChildLoaded );
    function onChildLoaded( event )
         html2.window.mytest();

  • Problem in Passing the value from child window to Parent window.

    Hi Frenz,
    I have a requirement like this. i have to pass a value from child window to parent window to one test field. That text field is not a normal text field.
    It was created like the following as SQL query.
    select
    ''LNo,
    apex_item.text(25,'',0,15,
    'style="width:100px;" onblur="javascript:showUpsell(this.value);" onkeypress="javascript:validateKeyPress(event,this.value,this.id);" onkeyup="javascript:this.value=this.value.toUpperCase();" id="P37_ITEMNO"') ItemNo
    Now i want to pass a value to the Item no from child window.
    i wrote the java script like this,
    opener.document.forms[0].f25.value="100";
    It was not working..Any suggestions for that..
    Thanks in advance

    Dear Baaju,
    How do you redirect your control from Child to Parent window.
    If you use a button to do this, then you can set this value in the branching of page.

  • How to pass a data from child window to parent window

    Hi,
    I have a jsp page with two hidden fields and a button, On clicking the button a popup will come out. There are two combobox in the popup and a search button. After putting a value in the comboboxes,if I click the search button, I need the datas of the combobox to pass to the parent's hidden fields then I need to do a data base search with that values of hidden fields and display the result in the parent page.
    I could I solve this problem, Please help, Its urgent.
    Thanks and Regards
    Rajib Sharma

    I think that you can use the JavaScipt as follow to pass a data from child window to parent window
    <HEAD>
    <script>
    function passData(){
    opener.form1.test1.value=form2.test2.value; //pass the value of test2 to the parent's test1
    window.close();
    </script>
    </HEAD>
    <BODY>
    <form name=form2>
    <input name=test2 type=text>
    <input type=button onclick="passData()" value=CLOSE>
    </form>
    </BODY>

  • How to access objects in the Child Form from Parent form.

    I have a requirement in which I have to first open a Child Form from a Parent Form. Then I want to access objects in the Child Form from Parent form. For example, I want to insert a record into a block present in Child Form by executing statements from a trigger present in Parent Form.
    I cannot use object groups since I cannot write code into Child Form to first create object groups into Child Form.
    I have tried to achieved it using the following (working of my testcase) :
    1) Created two new Forms TESTFORM1.fmb (parent) and TESTFORM2.fmb (child).
    2) Created a block named BLK1 manually in TESTFORM1.
    3) Created two items in BLK1:
    1.PJC1 which is a text item.
    2.OPEN which is a push button.
    4) Created a new block using data block wizard for a table EMPLOYEE_S1. Created items corresponding to all columns present in EMPLOYEE_S1 table.
    5) In WHEN-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE trigger of TESTFORM1 set the first navigation block to BLK1. In BLK1 first navigable item is PJC1.
    6) In WHEN-NEW-ITEM-INSTANCE of PJC1, code has been written to automatically execute the WHEN-BUTTON-PRESSED trigger for the "Open" button.
    7) In WHEN-BUTTON-PRESSED trigger of OPEN item, TESTFORM2 is opened using the following statement :
    open_form(‘TESTFORM2',no_activate,no_session,SHARE_LIBRARY_DATA);
    Since its NO_ACTIVATE, the code flows without giving handle to TESTFORM2.
    8) After invoking OPEN_FORM, a GO_FORM(‘TESTFORM2’) is now called to set the focus to TESTFORM2
    PROBLEM AT HAND
    ===============
    After Step 8, I notice that it passes the focus to TESTFORM2, and statements after go_form (in Parent Form trigger) doesnot executes.
    I need go_form with no_activate, similar to open_form.

    isn't it easier to find a solution without a second form? If you have a second window, then you can navigate and code whatever you want.
    If you must use a second form, then you can handle this with WHEN-WINDOW-ACTIVATED and meta-data, which you have to store in global variables... ( I can give you hints if the one-form-solution is no option for you )

  • How to close child windows when parent window closed in jsp

    how to close child windows when parent window closed in jsp
    becoz it can't be able to recognise it's parent
    with the whole application
    plz send me some sample code of it

    Hi, I have no idea how to do this is JSP.
    However createing a modal window (with javascript) would mean that the user can not use the parent window untill he closes the child window. However not sure if this is what you are searching.
    Otherwise you can detect the onClose (I think) and close the window from there.
    However both the above are JavaScript and not JSP.

  • Spawning child program from parent concurrent program.

    Hi All,
    I am trying to spawn multiple child programs from Parent concurrent program, Parent concurrent program is having execution method as HOST.
    Here is how I designed it.
    1. Parent Concurrent program (Parent Conc program with execution method as HOST).
    2. Host file is abc.prog calls PLSQL package xyz.main.
    3. xyz.main has logic to launch multiple child programs - (Child Conc program with execution method as PLSQL stored proc) using fnd_request.submit_request utility.
    All the child programs are getting launched but are in INACTIVE/NOMANAGER state. Could you please let me know how to overcome this issue.
    Both Parent and child programs are added to standard concurrent manager. This issue is only coming when parent program as execution method as HOST if parent program execution method is PLSQL stored procedure then child programs are running fine..
    I also tired initializing apps in HOST file (abc.prog) before calling PLSQL package xyz.main.
    Thanks.
    Sham.

    hi,
    even i was facing the same issue. while submitting the child requests through fnd_request.submit_request i tried the following:
    FND_REQUEST.submit_request (
    application => 'Application Short Name',
    program => 'Program Executable Name',
    description => 'Program Description',
    start_time => NULL,
    sub_request => FALSE,
    argument1 => 'Input 1',
    argument2 => 'Input 2' );
    After this the Programs were submitted successfully.

  • How to create child part from Parent Item - BLOW UP Master - Automatically

    Hi to All,
    Have any one defined this process?
    To create child part from Parent Item - BLOW UP Master - Automatically ie. we receive FG from customer which we need to blow up to its child part. In that case, FG should be consumed & child parts should be generated in stock.
    We tried with recursive, but the stock of FG was again generating with recursive.
    Ex. FG after receiving from customer in stock 1
    Child parts (with offtake 1) X1, X2, X3 in stock zero.
    After processing, FG stock should be zero & X1, X2, X3 = 1.
    Regards
    Nitin

    Create a BOM for one of the "child" parts that has the "FG from customer" as a component and all the other child parts are negative quantity components (by products).
    To make it simple have all the components backflushed and auto goods receipt the child in the BOM header.  Create a production order, then process the confirmation (this will auto goods receipt the 1st child, consume by backflush the "FG from customer" and put the other child parts into stock as by products.
    You will need to get your material prices correct first so that there is minimal variance in the production order.

  • Low level disk access using win API libraries

    Hello All,
    One of my project requires "low level access to the drives (usually pen Drive)' for analysis. I think this is possible using WIN API functions, i tried to read using kernal32.dll but i am unable to complete the task effectively, since i dont have sufficient exposure to text oriented languages. Basically i need to read the memory as it is stored, just like stream of bytes. Could any one guide me how do i proceed inorder to get rid of this.
    thank you.

    Unfortunately no. You cannot mix both high and low level on the same screen. You'll probably have to draw it out yourself and capture user input, unless you're willing to use textboxes.
    Or.. i suppose you can try using customItems for all your "coloring" instead?

  • Accessing variables from Child window from the parent window

    Hi All,
    I am in the process of integration of payment gateway, here I am opening payment gateway page as a new window, and after payment is done then I need access one variable which is hidden variable ...any ideas

    Have a hidden field/js variable in the parent page. Add a Javascript function in parent page which would take a value as parameter and set in the parent page hidden field/js variable. In the child window, you can invoke the method from script block as window.opener.setValue(document.getElementById('CHILD_WINDOW_HIDDEN_FIELD_ID').value)
    For Javascript related questions, please visit Javascript forums.

  • How to parse parameter from child window to parent window in JSP

    I have two JSP i.e. course1.jsp and course2.jsp. I would want to find out how I could parse the parameter/value from child window to the parent window when the child window get closed.
    What I am trying to do is actually a file upload process. The child windows will open for user to upload the file, and when close, the file name will be parse into the parent form for database update. Is this something possible at all? or is there any other better approaches.
    Thank you.
    These are the two files:
    --------course1.jsp ------------
    Attach File <p>
    <FORM name="courseForm" action="course2.jsp" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
    <TABLE cellSpacing=1 cellPadding=3 border=0 WIDTH=500>
    <TR >
    <TD>
    <input type="text" NAME="f_file_name" size="30" VALUE="this value should be taken from child windows">
    get file name
    <p>
         <INPUT class="buttons" TYPE="submit" NAME="submit" VALUE="Submit">
    </TD>
    </TR>
    </TABLE>
    </FORM>
    ---- course2.jsp -------
    <%
    String filename = "this is the string needs to go back to parent windows when I click on close";
    %>
    <p>
    close

    In course2.jsp, you have to write some javascript code to reload the parent window document to reload the document with an added parameter. But, instead of doing this, you can also do simple thing; in course2.jsp, you can reference course1.jsp controls via javascript object, "parent". On closing event of course2, you can write:
    parent.courseForm.f_file_name.text = '<%=filename%>' ;
    window.close() ;
    But for this to work, you must open your course2.jsp document thru window.open() function instead of simple hyper link (as you did thru ).
    So, modify the hyperlink line like below:
    get file name
    Hope it helps.

  • How can I remove child node from JTree???

    Hi,
    I would like to remove all the child node of my jtree. For instance I would like to remove the c, d, and e nodes. It's possible to remove all the child node or to remove by her name ("c", "d", and "e"). If yes what is the method that it permit to do.

    I use the model : DefaultMutableTreeNode
    Thanks

    There are a couple of ways it can be done. If your tree uses DefaultTreeModel as its TreeModel, you can use removeNodeFromParent(). This will remove the node from its parent and effectively remove its children, too. All nodes removed will be garbage-collected if there are no other references to them.
    If your tree model is not the default tree model, but still uses MutableTreeNode, you can use either remove() or removeFromParent() on the node itself, depending on whether you want to remove the node itself or one of its children.
    On the other hand, your tree may use a model that simply "mirrors" another data structure, in which case you would have to remove the node from the other data structure and have it reflected in the model.

  • Window.open always opens a child window with parent window propertiesin firefox 30

    By clicking on a link my code uses window.open which should open the response in child window. I am not specifying any height and width(as per requirement). In firefox alone, the window takes up the properties of child window and opens with same size as of parent window. Is there a way to restrict Firefox from inheriting the properties of parent window?

    Hi prajulakc,
    Thank you for your question. Currently the active window selected when you create a new window that new window will take the active window's screensize.
    You can add a preference: see also [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/754273 question/754273]
