如何限制ROME Fetcher中已下载（已解析）条目（项目）的数量

Question

I am using ROME & ROME Fetcher for getting Feeds ( ATOM/RSS ) in my JavaEE web application.

In some cases I would like to limit number of downloaded/parsed entries/items. I want to avoid this scenario: get all and ten just make subList() .

Any ideas or anybody solved this somehow ?

Thanks.

I don't see a feasible way that you could download just a few of them - at the end of the day you send a request to the server and it will decide what to send you.

To me this sounds a bit like premature optimization. Dependent on what you're building, it might be better to do something like caching data if you're worried about performance.

Anyhow, I can't see anyway you can do this with ROME, but it could be done if you built your own XML parser.
