UPDATE:

facesContext.responseComplete();
writer.close();

UPDATE 2 : 

<xp:button value="Create TXT File" id="button1">
    <xp:eventHandler event="onclick" submit="true"
        refreshMode="complete">
        <xp:this.action><![CDATA[#{javascript:var con = facesContext.getExternalContext();
var response:com.ibm.xsp.webapp.XspHttpServletResponse = con.getResponse();
response.setContentType("text/plain; charset=UTF-8");
response.setHeader("Cache-Control", "no-cache");
response.setDateHeader("Expires", -1);
response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=\"file.txt\"" );
var strEntr = "\n";
var str1 = "TXTV2[] \n";
str1 +=  "NUMBER|CLIENT_ID|START_DATE|END_DATE|\n";
str1 += "UNITS|DESCRIPTION|CLASSIFICATION|"+strEntr;
str1 += "[]";
response.getOutputStream().write(str1.getBytes());
facesContext.responseComplete();   }]]></xp:this.action>
    </xp:eventHandler></xp:button>
Solution

  • This example will download the content of a String as a txt-File.

    Hope that helps.

    var textBuffer = "some text here";
var con = facesContext.getExternalContext();
var response:com.ibm.xsp.webapp.XspHttpServletResponse = con.getResponse();
response.setContentType("text/plain");
response.setHeader("Cache-Control", "no-cache");
response.setDateHeader("Expires", -1);
response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=\"file.txt\"" );
response.getOutputStream().write(textBuffer.getBytes());
facesContext.responseComplete();
