Preventing router from navigating

Question

I need to prevent router to be navigated to another page (which is done by changing the hash) if some changes are made. Tried with HashChanger but it just fires \'hashChange\' e

Answer 1

There is a stop function on the router https://sapui5.hana.ondemand.com/#/api/sap.ui.core.routing.Router/methods/stop

if you call it, the router will stop listening to hashchanges.

There is also function isStopped(). To (re-)activate the router, call initialize(...).
