Instead of: LiftRules.getResourceAsStream(name: String): Box[InputStream]

And if you need laziness, you could use one of the usual suspects: "lazy val", unapplied function, FatLazy, etc. alex On Thu, Dec 31, 2009 at 3:48 PM, David Pollak <feeder.of.the.be...@gmail.com > wrote: > Folks, > > I've changed LiftRules.getResourceAsStream and LiftRules.finder to return > Box[Applier[InputStream]] rather than Box[InputStream]. > > Applier has a single method, apply[T] which takes an InputStream => T and > insures the InputStream is closed. > > This change is unlikely to impact much code out there, but does make sure > that InputStreams are closed. > > If any of the folks out there that name things better than I do (at least I > didn't call it Apply_A_Tron), please feel free to suggest name changes, > variance changes, etc. > > Thanks, > > David > > -- > Lift, the simply functional web framework http://liftweb.net > Beginning Scala http://www.apress.com/book/view/1430219890 > Follow me: http://twitter.com/dpp > Surf the harmonics > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Lift" group. > To post to this group, send email to lift...@googlegroups.com. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > liftweb+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com<liftweb%2bunsubscr...@googlegroups.com> > . > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/liftweb?hl=en. > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Lift" group.
