I'm implementing some naive searching in my application, and searches will take place on a couple of different object types (Customer, Appointment, Activity, etc.). I'm trying to create an interface that will have types that are searchable. What I'd like to do is something like this: public interface ISearchable { // Contains the 'a...
What would be the best way to optimize this code below to make it more efficient while applying the 'best practices'. This is just a simple school project and it works, I've tested it. But I just feel like there's a better and more efficient way to write this method. What do you think? I have an array that is pre-populated with a bunch...

I'm trying to build a page similar to www.bing-vs-google.com, but instead of bing and google, I want to populate it with several of my company's internally-used sites. This would function as a "universal search" for our employees to search across a variety of sites (all of which pass search queries via URL). Has anyone seen or done thi...
I have been using http://www.grepcode.com/ a lot lately to dig into the internals of common libraries to determine what a specific error means. (like what does "Connection reset" mean when using Axis? turns out it means that the socket closed but the buffer doesn't contain an EOF marker in it... though i still can't replicate this except...

Hi I am in need of a data storage type and algorithm for keeping track of the status of the last N items I have seen. Each item has a status of Pass or Fail, but the system I am monitoring will deemed to have failed if M items in a row have failed. Once the system is deemed to have failed I then need to scan back through the history of...
I'm coding a resource site around a fairly large directory database, and I'd like to make some kind of in-site search available for my visitors. I'm debating between whether to use Google's premade site search (which I can drop right into my template) or coding a custom search that accesses the database directly. Obviously, the custom s...
Hello, My website stores several million entities. Visitors search for entities by typing words contained only in the titles. The titles are at most 100 characters long. This is not a case of classic document search, where users search inside large blobs. The fields are very short. Also, the main issue here is performance (and not r...
I have a master/detail form with a JTable on top, and all the JTextFields corresponding below in the JPanel. I'm trying to make a search in the JTable, so that when the correct row gets picked, all the JTextFields can be filled with the column values. I don't know how can I call the rows programmatically to do so. How would it be done...

Hi, I've implemented a "simple search form" (railscasts #37) in my app, but I wonder how: 1.) I cannot display any results if the keywords field is empty, or if the index page is loaded (I've tried search != "". Maybe there is a better way) 2.) I can add a function which avoid multiple white spaces in the search. (if users wrote someth...
Hi guys, In one of our community sites, we allow users to upload images. These images are approved or rejected by our moderators. To limit the work needed by our administrators, we want to 'log' each picture that is rejected to some kind of database, and do a lookup in this database prior to submitting an image for approval. If a simi...

I need to search through all revisions of a Subversion repository to find file names and revision numbers that contain a particular string. I know that this will find occurrences in a dump: svnadmin dump $REPO_PATH | grep -i "Verdana" but the output is too cryptic. The output will include chunks of binary files that match. I have bee...
Hi, Here is the code of a "simple search form" (thanks to jordinl) which I try to improve. I would like to add the case if there is no match found.
