Title: GWC view PDF file Post by: Jeff W. on November 11, 2010, 12:10:57 am When viewing a PDF using GWC front-end, the provided app "gviewpdf" displays a newly created PDF file using a Menu (example attached). Is there another way to do this without the Menu? I can't find a frontcall used by GWC to open a PDF directly, but the Menu solution is awkward.

#-- pseudo-code if (os.Path.copy(my_pdf, "%FGLASDIR%\\web\\my_dir\\"||my_pdf)) then let pdf_url = "/my_dir/my_pdf" call ui.Interface.frontCall("standard", "launchurl", [pdf_url], []) end if In as.xcf, see also: <RESOURCE Id="res.path.docroot" Source="INTERNAL">$(res.path.as)/web</RESOURCE> ... <DOCUMENT_ROOT>$(res.path.docroot)</DOCUMENT_ROOT> Or, something like that!
