[Dynapi-Dev] compressing files

[Jesse Vitrone]

Hello all,     I've never contributed to an open source project before, so I'm not sure of the proper ettiquite.  Please correct me if I do something stupid :)     I've been email with Raymond Irving about some idea's that I had, and he encouraged me to post it here and see what people think.     I wrote a Java version of the _javascript_ compressor that comes with DynAPI.  Along with everything that the DynAPI one does, it reads in a config file that says "compress these files, then merge them into this one file".  This enables me to keep a good amount of JS files when I'm coding, but then when I "build" to apache, I compress them all into 1 file, so the browser doesn't have to hit the server multiple times to get the files.     Then, I took it a step farther, and added what I had to in order to be able to compress the DynAPI files I was using, and it worked!  I was able to get all my files, plus the DynAPI files I was using and compress / merge them all into 1 file. It sped things up on my server dramatically.     The changes were all just adding semi-colons where they were needed, except for one case:                ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Etnus, makers of TotalView, The best thread debugger on the planet.
