Funny :-)
I have some too...
btw, this is mine, about 8 years ago, and yes, I don't do things like
that anymore :-)
protected String encode(String src){
return
StringUtils.replace(StringUtils.replace(StringUtils.replace(StringUtils.replace(StringUtils.replace(StringUtils.replace(src,'%',"%25"),'&',"%26"),'#',"%23"),'+',"%2B"),'
',"%20"),'=',"%3D");
}
following code is not mine (thank g-d) but also ugly:
Random ran;
dbIFC is an instance of a businesslogic unit. Goal is to find a new id
for import of a new company.
while( dbIFC.companyExist(id = (ran == null ? (ran = new
Random(System.currentTimeMillis())).nextInt():ran.nextInt())) );
and that's my favorite comment:
/**
* @author xxx - 13.08.2001
* Transform key figuere value into the value without exponents
like millon or thousend
* @param provider provider id that supplies this key figure
* @param key figure id
* @prama valau stringrepresantation of key figure value
* return trafsformated key figure value
* */
hope you feel better now, as not the only one to deal with boneheaded :-)
Want some more? :-)
here, one junior developer decided that equals isn't cool enough :-)
if(req.getParameter("nMode")!=null){
try{
if(req.getParameter("nMode").compareTo("edit")==0){
same guy, same class:
if(myNote.length()>0){
addBeanToRequest(req,"dohook","true");
}else addBeanToRequest(req,"dohook","false");
...
how do you check if a String is equal to "true"? Equals is for worms!
return sDo.indexOf("true") >= 0;
....
next one is mine again... I want to clear the cache at 4 o'clock each morning...
private void receiveTimerInvalidateCacheEvent(){
Date d = Date.currentDate();
if (d.hour>=4 && d.hour<5){
//each morning between 4 and 5 am, we will
//completely clean the cache to enforce mailbox reload and trash cleaning
log.info("cleaning up the cache.");
cache.clearCache();
}
}
if (d.hour==4) was far to easy :-)
...
