Render images by java code or read images from a static path?

Image
By User



Here's my code:





1.Java Code:







public static void getImg(Long itemId) {

  try {

    Item item = Item.findById(itemId);

    if (item.img != null && item.img.getFile() != null{

      response.setContentTypeIfNotSet(item.img.type());

      renderBinary(item.img.get());

    }

  } catch (Exception e) {

    Logger.error("Can't find image,itemId = " + itemId);

  }

} 



html : < img src="@{{ Items.getImage(123)}}"/>







2.







html : < img src="/public/images/123.jpg"/>







I'm using playframework and the samples from documentation display images via the first version. What's the different (deep into mechanism) between them, especially in response performance ?

    In the 1st version, since you get the actual filename from some business logic (and/or database), you can easily rename/replace the image of id '123' without needing to change the presentation tiers.

    If the image of id '123' is in a protected folder (HTTP Basic Authentication or similar), your business logic could make sure the access is granted through an application wide security mechanism.

    You could also have versioning of the image, by providing the path of the desired version according to other Request/Session parameter and logic.

    In the 2nd case, it is possible to perform the above scenario but much more costly in development time and possibly configuration.

Why is this Javascript much *slower* than its jQuery equivalent?

By User
I have a HTML list of about 500 items and a "filter" box above it. I started by using jQuery to filter the list when I typed a letter (timing code added later): $('#filter').keyup( function() { var jqStart = (new Date).getTime(); var search = $(this).val().toLowerCase(); var $list = $('ul.ablist > li'); $list.each( function() { if ( $(this).text().toLowerCase().indexOf(search) === -1 ) $(this).hide(); else $(this).show(); } ); console.log('Time: ' + ((new Date).getTime() - jqStart)); } ); However, there was a couple of seconds delay after typing each letter (particularly the first letter). So I thought it may be slightly quicker if I used plain Javascript (I read recently that jQuery's each function is particularly slow). Here's my JS equivalent: document.getElementById('filter').addEventListener( 'keyup', function () { var jsStart = (new Date).getTime()...

Is it possible to have IF statement in an Echo statement in PHP

By User
Thanks in advance. I did look at the other questions/answers that were similar and didn't find exactly what I was looking for. I'm trying to do this, am I on the right path? echo " <div id='tabs-".$match."'> <textarea id='".$match."' name='".$match."'>". if ($COLUMN_NAME === $match) { echo $FIELD_WITH_COLUMN_NAME; } else { } ."</textarea> <script type='text/javascript'> CKEDITOR.replace( '".$match."' ); </script> </div>"; I am getting the following error message in the browser: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_IF Please let me know if this is the right way to go about nesting an IF statement inside an echo. Thank you.
