GWT ChildWindow.onClose?

In Javascript, I can do the following:

var child = window.open(URL, "_blank"); child.onclose = myChildCloseHandler();

Is it possible to do that same thing with GWT? The main problem seems to be that Window.open does not return any handle to the child window.

There are two ways to do it in GWT:

  • use Elemental (elemental.html.Window with addEventListener)

  • use JSNI:

    public native void open(String url) /*-{
  var child = window.open(url, "_blank");
  var that = this;
  child.onclose = $entry(function() {
    [email protected]::myChildCloseHandler()();
  });
}-*/;
