Get current/active screen of JVx application

I have a JVx application with lots of screens (> 150) and want to create an admin screen which takes care of the current/active screen. The admin screen is a modal screen and implemented as popup.

Is it possible to get the current/active screen for the application?

I tried to iterate all components and check by class, but this is not technology independent because desktop has frames, web has panels and mobile has a wrapper panel.

Is there an API for that?

Solution

  • There's an API for that.

    Use the application and call

    getActiveControllable()

    to get the active screen.

    But be careful, can be null.

    I found a blog post about the API and above call works for me.
