Open New Window PeopleCode
Sometimes you need to open a new window to a PeopleSoft page and when that windows opens you lose the state of your previous page. Here is a function that uses the PeopleSoft newwin servlet processing to open a new window in a new state block.
/*****************************************************************************
NewWinUrl(&strUrl)
This function modifies a URL to return a new window URL
It allows a new state block to be generated in a separate browser instance.
http://server:port/psp/ps/EMPLOYEE/HRMS/c/......
turns into
http://server:port/psp/ps_newwin/EMPLOYEE/HRMS/c/......
which renders to the browser as
http://server:port/psp/ps_1/EMPLOYEE/HRMS/c/......
Input parameters: &strUrl - a URL to manipulate
Output parameters: &strUrlModified - New URL with _newwin parameter
****************************************************************************/
Function NewWinUrl(&strUrl As string) Returns string;
Local string &sRegex, &sReplace, &Result;
/* Declare java object */
Local JavaObject &jUrl;

&jUrl = CreateJavaObject("java.lang.String", &strUrl);
&Result = &jUrl.replaceAll(&sRegex, &sReplace);
