Hi Bastian

I know I could keep the parameters in the hrefs of links and attach them in 
onClicks or onSubmits for forms but this would only help for single pages. We 
want to cache the properties of all tables. We don't have as many tables and 
concurrent users as our Weblogic-cluster would struggle with. 
My suggestion would be to add a Flag like <display:table 
parameterCachingEnabled="true"... which is false for default. This would just 
give you the possibility to "waste" session-memory if you need it.

Cheers

Günther

Hello Günther,

your solution made it easy to implement what the business guys wanted.
However keep in mind that you could carry over the display tag parameters
you desired by passing them over with the href. This saves you from
struggling with lots of session data in memory.

This would of course require a special tag (see older posts in the user
list) and will get complicated if you have very deep navigation structures.
Anyway, if memory usage is not a major concern for you, your solution is
much slicker.

Regards

Bastian

Hi list
 
My name is Guenther and I work in a project of a Telco Company in Austria.
Our team uses the display-tag extensively and we would like to thank you for
your cool project which saved us a lot of time.
Recently we got a little CR from our business guys who wanted the
displaytag-tables to remember pagenumber, sorting ... Therefore I patched
two methods of your org.displaytag.util.DefaultRequestHelper:
 
<code>
 
    public String getParameter(String key)
    {
        // actually simply return the parameter, this behaviour could be
changed
        return this.request.getParameter(key);
    }
 
    public Integer getIntParameter(String key)
    {
        String value = this.request.getParameter(key);
            .
            .
            .
 
</code>
 
became
 
<code>
 
    public String getParameter(String key)
    {
            HttpSession session = this.request.getSession();
            String value = this.request.getParameter(key);
                        
            boolean parameterCachingEnabled = true;
                        
            if (parameterCachingEnabled) {
                        // check if cache already exists
                        HashMap cache = (HashMap)
session.getAttribute(CACHE_KEY);
                        if (cache == null) {
                                    cache = new HashMap();
                                    session.setAttribute(CACHE_KEY, cache);
                        }
                        
                        if (value == null) {
                                    // let's get the parameter from the
cache
                                    value = (String) cache.get(key);
                                    
                        } else {
                                    // let's put the parameter in the cache
                                    cache.put(key, value);
                        }
            }
            return value;
    }
 
    public Integer getIntParameter(String key)
    {
        String value = getParameter(key);
            .
            .
            .
 
</code>
 
 
We would be very glad if you want to add this to displaytag. It's on you how
to pass the parameterCachingEnabled flag to the method. We always needed the
cache and wanted to modify as little as possible (for copy and paste upgrade
reasons if you don't want to add these changes to future releases).
 
Cheers,
 
Guenther
