Thank you very much.
I changed the method highbound() as below:
@highbound() = @{
if ((lowbound() + bound) * pageLength >= collectionLength)
math.ceil(collectionLength.toDouble / pageLength).toInt
else
lowbound() + bound
}

Hi – tried to get this working from Java but have had problems with delegating the page parameter to the paginate helper.

I changed the parameter on the paginate helper to route:Int => play.api.mvc.Call, plus the last parameter on the @includes.paginate to list from index and it all works well.

Thanks!

Only slightly related, but... MVC - learned all about this programming concept over a decade ago at Apple's WWDC. I remember people on the WebObjects and Cocoa team would put songs together about MVCs, and I found one on YouTube. I guess I should go dig out my WWDC DVDs and find the others, as they were interesting. Enjoy! David

printf(“%s”, loglevel);
vprintf(format, arglist);
printf(“\n”);

Thread-safe, huh?

Hmmm, you are obviously very Linux-centric, what about AIX, Solaris, HP-UX,…(just to name a few)?
Yes, Linux is becoming more Enterprise aware, but, still not nearly on top of the world like we’d like to think (I was a large S/W contributor to the FSF community starting back in 1985).

Instead of trying to control all the rings, how about One Ring to rule them all (perhaps we need to re-investigate “United Linux” (w/o MS of course, just saying).

But I digress.

Ahh, withUser comes from an Action Composition but it is unnecessary for this example. See: http://www.playframework.org/documentation/2.0.4/ScalaActionsComposition if you are curious.

Hi,
I had trouble to find out what “withUser” means. Then I found something like withComputer in a computer DB sample application so I decided to understand the code there first of all. In my opinion it would be sufficient to have a set of some users data and a single web page with paging to demonstrate the concept. Thanks!

@Zenius – can you describe what you are having trouble with? I’d have to make a full demo app to show much more than this.

Hey,
couldn’t you please post a working example of this to study it more. It is hard for a newbie to figure everything out on his own.
