Previously, if YaCy log folder was for example at
`/home/user/yacy/DATA/LOG`, because of improper truncation of log path,
an unnecessary directory creation was atempted at `/home/us`.
Considering that the sliders usage on that page is very basic, using
standard HTML5 inputs of type "range" has here the following advantages
:
- better keyboard accessibility
- remove not very necessary additional jquery dependencies
Today browsers suport for range inputs is good, and even on old
unsupporting browsers such as IE < 10 they nicely fall back to text
inputs.
When searching images, thumbnails that could not be rendered (because of
a load error such as HTTP 404, networking issue or an internal error on
the rendering servlet) are now hidden as default. But can be revealed
with a button if desired.
Fix for issue #217
Manually replacing '+' character or "%20" by a space character in the
search query parameter was necessary in YaCy a long time ago to properly
decode application/x-www-form-urlencoded format (commit
9842fab6e4 in 2010).
Since the introduction of Jetty as the embedded HTTP server (commit
4b77733e59 in 2013), this is no more
necessary as Jetty internals already do this for us in
org.eclipse.jetty.util.UrlEncoded.decodeUtf8To().
So we can remove now this duplicated decoding as it prevents a proper
use of the '+' character in search requests, as reported in issue #216.
- Removed calls to no more existing clearResources functions (on PDFont
class and its children) since upgrade to pdfbox 2.n.n
- Removed hacky usage of protected internal ClassLoader function. This
removes the warnings displayed when running with JDK9 or JDK10 :
[java] WARNING: Illegal reflective access by
net.yacy.document.parser.pdfParser$ResourceCleaner (file:<path>) to
method java.lang.ClassLoader.findLoadedClass(java.lang.String)
[java] WARNING: Please consider reporting this to the maintainers
of net.yacy.document.parser.pdfParser$ResourceCleaner
[java] WARNING: Use --illegal-access=warn to enable warnings of
further illegal reflective access operations
[java] WARNING: All illegal access operations will be denied in a
future release
Crawling thousands of pdf documents from various sources after
modifications applied, revealed no new memory leak related to pdfbox
(measurements done with JVisualVM).
As reported by @vikulin in issue #187, crawling websites using a raw
IPv6 address as host name in their URL failed when running on Microsoft
Windows platforms (FAT32 or NTFS filesystems) when YaCy crawler created
the crawl queue folder, as the ':' character which is part of an IPV6
address is forbidden on these filesystems.
The status of the library in the DictionaryLoader_p.html page now also
advertises the user that an upgrade can be applied when an older dump is
already loaded.
Upgrade applied as suggested by Niklas Andrus @fapth_gitlab on Gitter
chat.
Relative URLs to CSS stylesheets were not properly rendered when using
the Solr html response writer and the "/solr/collection1/select" entry
point instead of "/solr/select".
