UI Mass Command opening new window

Question

Hi all,
I need your help. I would like to create new UI Mass Command which will open new IE window.
For better understanding of my problem:
I've created UI Mass Command which take selected resources and add them to ZIP archive. The final ZIP stream I store to a static class. Then I create servlet which loads the ZIP stream from the static class and offer it to user for downloading. But I need modify the command to be able call the servlet in new window.
Do you have any idea how to do that? Thank you in advance for any reply!

Hi Zbynek ,
You need to implement a class which extends AbstractCommand class and in the method getLinkAttributes() you can return the link that should be executed when user click the UICommand.
Check this to know, how to implement UICommand:
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/library/kmc/Implementing%20Flexible%20UI%20One-Step-Screenflow.article
Here is getLinkAttributes implementation:
public LinkAttributes getLinkAttributes() {
        try {
            String path = getResource().getRID().getPath();
                 String irjString = pcr.getServletRequest().getContextPath();
               String linkRef = irjString + "/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/YourComponent";
            return new LinkAttributes(
                "javascript:me.window.open('"
                    + linkRef
                    + "?path="
                    + path
                    + "', 'myWin_"
                    + System.currentTimeMillis()
                    + "', 'left=250, top=250, toolbar=no,status=no,menubar=no,resizable=yes,scrollbars=yes,width=700,height=350');",
                "_top",
                true);
        } catch (ResourceException e) {
            log.severe(e, "Operation failed");
            return null;
