osx web service spawns icon in taskbar - osx - while drawing image
- by wuntee
I have a web endpoint that displays an image of a string... When the following code is run (in tomcat) it spawns a java icon in the taskbar on OSX. Not sure if it is a problem, or whats going on. Looking for some sort of explination
@RequestMapping("/text/{text}")
public void textImage(HttpServletResponse response, @PathVariable("text") String text){
response.setContentType("image/png");
try{
OutputStream os = response.getOutputStream();
BufferedImage bufferedImage = new BufferedImage( (text.length()*10) , 14, BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_ARGB);
Graphics2D g2d = bufferedImage.createGraphics();
g2d.setBackground(Color.WHITE);
g2d.setPaint(Color.BLACK);
Font font = new Font("sansserif", Font.PLAIN, 12);
g2d.setFont(font);
g2d.drawString(text, 0, 12);
ImageIO.write(bufferedImage, "png", os);
} catch(Exception e) {
// nothing we can do, simply log the error
logger.error("Could not draw string: ", e);
}
}
