If you see the "return" statement in your program, you are likely doing
something wrong. It means that it's time to refactor your code so there's a
single return point from your method. Using null is a red flag (use Option
or Box) and using vars (rather than vals) is a yellow flag.
So, let's go through your code:
def findTagWithName(tags: List[Tag], name: String) : Tag = {
val t = tags.find(x => x.name == name)
return t.getOrElse(null)
}
becomes:
def findTagWithName(tags: List[Tag], name: String): Box[Tag] =
tags.find(x => x.name == name)
def getCookieValue(name: String, default: String) : String = {
for(cookie <- S.findCookie(name); v <- cookie.value) {
return v
}
return default
}
becomes:
def getCookieValue(name: String, default: String): String =
(for(cookie <- S.findCookie(name); v <- cookie.value)
yield v) openOr default
def getParamValue(name: String, default: String) : String = {
for(v <- S.param(name)) {
return v
}
return default
}
becomes:
def getParamValue(name: String, default: String): String =
S.param(name) openOr default
def getSelectedTag(tags: List[Tag], cookieName: String, urlParam: String)
: Tag = {
var t : Tag = null
try {
if(tags.length == 0) {
return null
}
// See if tag name is present in the URL
val tagName = getParamValue(urlParam, "")
// If yes, check if a tag with this name is present in tags
t = findTagWithName(tags, tagName)
// If it is, write out the right cookie and return
if(t != null) {
return t
}
// if no, check the corresponding cookie
val cv = getCookieValue(cookieName, "")
if(cv != null) {
// and check if the tag with a name stored in cookie is
present in tags
t = findTagWithName(tags, cv)
if(t != null) {
return t
}
}
// otherwise just select the last tag from the list and write out
the cookie
t = tags.last
return t
} finally {
if(t != null) {
var c = HTTPCookie(cookieName, t.name).setMaxAge(365 * 24 *
60 * 60)
S.addCookie(c)
}
}
}
becomes:
def getSelectedTag(tags: List[Tag], cookieName: String, urlParam:
String): Box[Tag] = {
// See if tag name is present in the URL
def tagForParam =
for {
param <- S.param(urlParam)
tag <- tags.find(_.name == param)
} yield tag
// if no, check the corresponding cookie
def tagForCookie =
for {
cookie <- S.findCookie(cookieName)
value <- cookie.value
tag <- tags.find(_.name == value)
} yield tag
val tag = tagForParam or tagForCookie or tags.lastOption
for {
// otherwise just select the last tag from the list and write out
the cookie
t = tags.last
return t
} finally {
if(t != null) {
var c = HTTPCookie(cookieName, t.name).setMaxAge(365 * 24 *
60 * 60)
S.addCookie(c)
}
}
}
