This answer has what you are looking for:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8617055/how-to-run-javascript-function-from-gwt-java-with-jsni
Specifically in Java:
myButton.addClickHandler(new ClickHandler(){
public void onClick(ClickEvent event) {
closeWindow();
};
});
public static native void closeWindow() /*-{ $wnd.closeWindow();}-*/;
Then in JavaScript in your app's .html page:
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
function closeWindow() {
window.open('','_self','');
window.close();
}</script>
Someone please correct me if this isn't the proper way to call JavaScript
from Java within GWT. I haven't tested this, but from the documentation and
a lot of various questions/answers, this appears to be the way to do it.
Especially when not using UIBinder and doing everything through GWT
Designer and/or normal Java editors as Nalini needs.
