WebChromeClient.OnCreateWindow(WebView, Boolean, Boolean, Message) Method

Definition

Request the host application to create a new window.

[Android.Runtime.Register("onCreateWindow", "(Landroid/webkit/WebView;ZZLandroid/os/Message;)Z", "GetOnCreateWindow_Landroid_webkit_WebView_ZZLandroid_os_Message_Handler")]
public virtual bool OnCreateWindow (Android.Webkit.WebView? view, bool isDialog, bool isUserGesture, Android.OS.Message? resultMsg);
[<Android.Runtime.Register("onCreateWindow", "(Landroid/webkit/WebView;ZZLandroid/os/Message;)Z", "GetOnCreateWindow_Landroid_webkit_WebView_ZZLandroid_os_Message_Handler")>]
abstract member OnCreateWindow : Android.Webkit.WebView * bool * bool * Android.OS.Message -> bool
override this.OnCreateWindow : Android.Webkit.WebView * bool * bool * Android.OS.Message -> bool

Parameters

view
WebView

The WebView from which the request for a new window originated.

isDialog
Boolean

true if the new window should be a dialog, rather than a full-size window.

isUserGesture
Boolean

true if the request was initiated by a user gesture, such as the user clicking a link.

resultMsg
Message

The message to send when once a new WebView has been created. resultMsg.obj is a WebView.WebViewTransport object. This should be used to transport the new WebView, by calling WebView.WebViewTransport#setWebView(WebView) WebView.WebViewTransport.setWebView(WebView).

Returns

Boolean

This method should return true if the host application will create a new window, in which case resultMsg should be sent to its target. Otherwise, this method should return false. Returning false from this method but also sending resultMsg will result in undefined behavior.
