Return to a first time state ...

Question

Hi everyone, I have an app that have a "return" button, this button is used when the user wants to return to a previous view, these previous view is the "main view" where the application starts and also the component controller, the problem is that I need to reload all the app (like a first time state) but I´m not sure if calling the wdDoInit of the component controller makes the job. ¿

Hi,
Anyway you want to load the entire screen and nodes again. So why dont you navigate to your applicaton again using the below code.
For example:
You have
App1 ---> Window1 ---> View1 (DefaultView)
               Window1 ---> View2
You are navigating from View1 to View2. When user clicks on View2 invoke App1 which loads all the application again. Use this below code to navigate to application.
// Get name of deployable object this component belongs to
String deployableObjectName =
wdComponentAPI.getDeployableObjectPart().getDeployableObjectName();
try {
// Get deployable object part of target application.
// Precondition: assume, that other application belongs to the same
// Web Dynpro Project (Deployable Object)
WDDeployableObjectPart deployableObjectPart =
WDDeployableObject.getDeployableObjectPart(
deployableObjectName,
"App1",
WDDeployableObjectPartType.APPLICATION);
// Get target URL based on deployable object part and URL parameters
String urlToTargetApp =
WDURLGenerator.getApplicationURL(deployableObjectPart, urlParameters);
// Fire exit plug to target URL via IPublic-API of used interface view
// controller
wdThis.wdGetStartCompInterfaceViewController()
.wdFirePlugStartAppExit(urlToTargetApp);
} catch (WDURLException e) {
messageMgr.reportException(e.getLocalizedMessage(), false);
} catch (WDDeploymentException ex) {
messageMgr.reportException(ex.getLocalizedMessage(), false);
