Jsp and CSS size limits that web developers need to aware

Here I am listing some erroneous cases that might occur in your web development phase, due to some size restrictions.

 JSP file size limit :

You might get some run time exceptions that the JSP file size limit exceeds. Please find below the reason :

In JVM the size of a single JAVA method is limited to 64kb. When the jsp file is converted to Servlet, if the jspservice method's size exceeds the 64kb limit, this exception will occur. Keep in mind that this exception depends on the implementation of the JSP translator, means the same JSP code may give an exception in Tomcat and may run successfully in Weblogic due to the the difference in the logic to built the Servlet methods from JSP.


The best way to omit this issue is by using dynamic include.For example, if you are using
                 <%@ include file="sample.jsp" %> (static include),
 replace this to
                <jsp:include page="sample.jsp" />   (dynamic include).

Static includes affect page size where dynamic includes affect processing overhead.

CSS size limit in IE :

To get some performance improvements, if you try to combine all your CSS files and if the combined CSS size exceeds 288kb, beware : IE has a size limit to load the CSS content. IE will ignore any CSS beyond 288 KB and even gzipping content doesn't matter. This size limit appears to be a "per file" limit and you can split the CSS into two files and it will work fine.

    Pleas add the kind of "this exception" too..

ATG - quick reference to commonly used DSP Tags

In this blog, I would like to give a quick reference to the most commonly used DSP Tags.Note that in this DSP tag details : bean refers to a Nucleus path, component name, and property name param refers to a Page parameter value refers to a Static-value var refers to a EL variable id refers to a scripting variable ============================================================== 1.dsp:importbean     example: <dsp:importbean bean="/atg/dynamo/droplet/Switch"/> ============================================================== 2.dsp:page     usage: It encloses a JSP. The dsp:page invokes the JSP handler, which calls the servlet pipeline and generates HTTPServletRequest.    example:    <dsp:page> ..... </dsp:page> ============================================================== 3.dsp:include     usage: Embeds a page fragment in a JSP.     example:   <dsp:include src="/myPage/Result...

Basic design decisions for a commerce search setup ( with an ATG Search view)

In this blog I would like to explain the basic set of configuration/design decisions needed to setup an ATG search project. Most of these design decisions are common for all Enterprise search applications. 1. Decide the searchable properties :   This means the properties that the business want the user to search in the ecommerce platform. In ATG search these are configured as the text properties in the product-catalog-output-config.xml ( the definitionFile of the \atg\commerce\search\ProductCatalogOutputConfig). Usually the displayName of product/sku, displayName of department/category/sub-category, skuId, brandName are the properties configured as searchable. 2. Decide the search refinement properties or the faceted properties :   After a user search for a keyword, search refinement is the next step done to filter his results. ATG supports the search refinement using the Faceted Search concept. Read more about facted search @...

ATG Search Indexing - behind the scene steps explained

Read more about the search indexing @  http://tips4ufromsony.blogspot.com/2011/11/atg-search-architectural-flow-search.html ATG search indexing involves index file creation, deploying and copying the index file to the search engine's box. The steps can be divided into Initial stage, Preparing Content, Indexing and Deploying. Please find below the detailed analysis of each step. 1. Initial stage:        a. Check whether the folder deployshare configured correctly @ LaunchingService.deployShare  ( \atg\search\routing\LaunchingService.deployShare ). Lets assume that it is configured to \Search2007.1\SearchEngine\i686-win32-vc71\buildedIndexFiles.        b. Lets assume that the index file folder ( \Search2007.1\SearchEngine\i686-win32-vc71\indexFiles)  has the following segments (folders) currently :                     66900...

JBoss - know more about the JBoss directory structure

Fundamentally, the JBoss architecture consists of the JMX MBean server, the microkernel, and a set of pluggable component services - the MBeans. The JBoss Application Server ships with three different server configurations. Within the <JBoss_Home>/server directory, you will find three subdirectories: minimal, default and all. The default configuration is the one used if you don’t specify another one when starting up the server. If you want to know which services are configured in each of these instances, look at the jboss-service.xml file in the <JBoss_Home>/server/<instance-name>/conf/ directory and also the configuration files in the <JBoss_Home>/server/<instance-name>/deploy directory. JBoss 4.0 features an embedded Apache Tomcat 5.5 servlet container. conf --> The conf directory contains the jboss-service.xml bootstrap descriptor file for a given server configuration. This has the jboss-log4j.xml file which configures the Apach...
