Method Detail

addFingerprintToLink

public static String addFingerprintToLink(String link,
                                          Calendar lastModified)

Insert a finger-print into a link that is based on the last modified date. This way we can use far future cache headers on images/assets, and simply change the filename for the asset when the asset has changed and we want browsers & proxies to take up the new asset from the server. Appends the date as a string directly before the file extension.

Parameters:

lastModified -

Returns:

The original link with the date based finger-print inserted.

removeFingerprintAndExtensionFromLink

public static String removeFingerprintAndExtensionFromLink(String originalPath)

Remove the extension and fingerPrint if present. Example: (print-logo.2012-11-20-12-15-20.pdf --> print-logo)
