Creating a jQuery object from a big HTML-string

var jQueryObject = $('<div></div>').html( string ).children();

This creates a dummy jQuery object in which you can put the string as HTML. Then, you get the children only.

How to get full width in body element

If its in a landscape then you will be needing more width and less height! That's just what all websites have.

Lets go with a basic first then the rest!

The basic CSS:

By CSS you can do this,

#body {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}

Here you are using a div with id body, as:

<body>
  <div id="body>
    all the text would go here!
  </div>
</body>

Then you can have a web page with 100% height and width.

What if he tries to resize the window?

The issues pops up, what if he tries to resize the window? Then all the elements inside #body would try to mess up the UI. For that you can write this:

#body {
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
}

And just add min-height max-height min-width and max-width.

This way, the page element would stay at the place they were at the page load.

Using JavaScript:

Using JavaScript, you can control the UI, use jQuery as:

$('#body').css('min-height', '100%');

And all other remaining CSS properties, and JS will take care of the User Interface when the user is trying to resize the window.

How to not add scroll to the web page:

If you are not trying to add a scroll, then you can use this JS

$('#body').css('min-height', screen.height); // or anyother like window.height

This way, the document will get a new height whenever the user would load the page.

Second option is better, because when users would have different screen resolutions they would want a CSS or Style sheet created for their own screen. Not for others!

Tip: So try using JS to find current Screen size and edit the page! :)

No route matches "/users/sign_out" devise rails 3

See if your routes.rb has a "resource :users" before a "devise_for :users" then try swapping them:

Works
- devise_for :users
- resources :users
Fails
- resources :users
- devise_for :users

How to get memory available or used in C#

For the complete system you can add the Microsoft.VisualBasic Framework as a reference;

 Console.WriteLine("You have {0} bytes of RAM",
        new Microsoft.VisualBasic.Devices.ComputerInfo().TotalPhysicalMemory);
        Console.ReadLine();

How do I remove diacritics (accents) from a string in .NET?

In case someone is interested, I was looking for something similar and ended writing the following:

public static string NormalizeStringForUrl(string name)
{
    String normalizedString = name.Normalize(NormalizationForm.FormD);
    StringBuilder stringBuilder = new StringBuilder();

    foreach (char c in normalizedString)
    {
        switch (CharUnicodeInfo.GetUnicodeCategory(c))
        {
            case UnicodeCategory.LowercaseLetter:
            case UnicodeCategory.UppercaseLetter:
            case UnicodeCategory.DecimalDigitNumber:
                stringBuilder.Append(c);
                break;
            case UnicodeCategory.SpaceSeparator:
            case UnicodeCategory.ConnectorPunctuation:
            case UnicodeCategory.DashPunctuation:
                stringBuilder.Append('_');
                break;
        }
    }
    string result = stringBuilder.ToString();
    return String.Join("_", result.Split(new char[] { '_' }
        , StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries)); // remove duplicate underscores
}

Javascript: How to detect if browser window is scrolled to bottom?

Getting a list of associative array keys

I am currently using Rob de la Cruz's reply:

Object.keys(obj)

And in a file loaded early on I have some lines of code borrowed from elsewhere on the Internet which cover the case of old versions of script interpreters that do not have Object.keys built in.

if (!Object.keys) {
    Object.keys = function(object) {
        var keys = [];
        for (var o in object) {
            if (object.hasOwnProperty(o)) {
                keys.push(o);
            }
        }
        return keys;
    };
}

I think this is the best of both worlds for large projects: simple modern code and backwards compatible support for old versions of browsers, etc.

Effectively it puts JW's solution into the function when Rob de la Cruz's Object.keys(obj) is not natively available.

How to escape braces (curly brackets) in a format string in .NET

You can use double open brackets and double closing brackets which will only show one bracket on your page.

jQuery - hashchange event

Here is updated version of @johnny.rodgers

Hope helps someone.

// ie9 ve ie7 return true but never fire, lets remove ie less then 10
if(("onhashchange" in window) && navigator.userAgent.toLowerCase().indexOf('msie') == -1){ // event supported?
    window.onhashchange = function(){
        var url = window.location.hash.substring(1);
        alert(url);
    }
}
else{ // event not supported:
    var storedhash = window.location.hash;
    window.setInterval(function(){
        if(window.location.hash != storedhash){
            storedhash = window.location.hash;
            alert(url);
        }
    }, 100);
}

How can I dynamically switch web service addresses in .NET without a recompile?

I know this is an old question, but our solution is much simpler than what I see here. We use it for WCF calls with VS2010 and up. The string url can come from app settings or another source. In my case it is a drop down list where the user picks the server. TheService was configured through VS add service reference.

private void CallTheService( string url )
{
   TheService.TheServiceClient client = new TheService.TheServiceClient();
   client.Endpoint.Address = new System.ServiceModel.EndpointAddress(url);
   var results = client.AMethodFromTheService();
}

How can I drop a table if there is a foreign key constraint in SQL Server?

BhupeshC and murat , this is what I was looking for. However @SQL varchar(4000) wasn't big enough. So, small change

DECLARE @cmd varchar(4000)

DECLARE MY_CURSOR CURSOR 
  LOCAL STATIC READ_ONLY FORWARD_ONLY
FOR 

select 'ALTER TABLE ['+s.name+'].['+t.name+'] DROP CONSTRAINT [' + RTRIM(f.name) +'];' FROM sys.Tables t INNER JOIN sys.foreign_keys f ON f.parent_object_id = t.object_id INNER JOIN sys.schemas s ON s.schema_id = f.schema_id

OPEN MY_CURSOR
FETCH NEXT FROM MY_CURSOR INTO @cmd
WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0
BEGIN
    -- EXEC (@cmd)
    PRINT @cmd
    FETCH NEXT FROM MY_CURSOR INTO @cmd
END
CLOSE MY_CURSOR
DEALLOCATE MY_CURSOR

GO

Detecting locked tables (locked by LOCK TABLE)

You could also get all relevant details from performance_schema:

SELECT
OBJECT_SCHEMA
,OBJECT_NAME
,GROUP_CONCAT(DISTINCT EXTERNAL_LOCK)
FROM performance_schema.table_handles 
WHERE EXTERNAL_LOCK IS NOT NULL

GROUP BY
OBJECT_SCHEMA
,OBJECT_NAME

This works similar as

show open tables WHERE In_use > 0

How should I copy Strings in Java?

Since strings are immutable, both versions are safe. The latter, however, is less efficient (it creates an extra object and in some cases copies the character data).

With this in mind, the first version should be preferred.

Query to get all rows from previous month

Even though the answer for this question has been selected already, however, I believe the simplest query will be

SELECT * 
FROM table 
WHERE 
date_created BETWEEN (CURRENT_DATE() - INTERVAL 1 MONTH) AND CURRENT_DATE();

write a shell script to ssh to a remote machine and execute commands

This worked for me. I made a function. Put this in your shell script:

sshcmd(){
    ssh $1@$2 $3
}

sshcmd USER HOST COMMAND

If you have multiple machines that you want to do the same command on you would repeat that line with a semi colon. For example, if you have two machines you would do this:

sshcmd USER HOST COMMAND ; sshcmd USER HOST COMMAND

Replace USER with the user of the computer. Replace HOST with the name of the computer. Replace COMMAND with the command you want to do on the computer.

Hope this helps!

Git: Recover deleted (remote) branch

It may seem as being too cautious, but I frequently zip a copy of whatever I've been working on before I make source control changes. In a Gitlab project I'm working on, I recently deleted a remote branch by mistake that I wanted to keep after merging a merge request. It turns out all I had to do to get it back with the commit history was push again. The merge request was still tracked by Gitlab, so it still shows the blue 'merged' label to the right of the branch. I still zipped my local folder in case something bad happened.

UNION with WHERE clause

In my experience, Oracle is very good at pushing simple predicates around. The following test was made on Oracle 11.2. I'm fairly certain it produces the same execution plan on all releases of 10g as well.

(Please people, feel free to leave a comment if you run an earlier version and tried the following)

create table table1(a number, b number);
create table table2(a number, b number);

explain plan for
select *
  from (select a,b from table1
        union 
        select a,b from table2
       )
 where a > 1;

select * 
  from table(dbms_xplan.display(format=>'basic +predicate'));

PLAN_TABLE_OUTPUT
---------------------------------------
| Id  | Operation            | Name   |
---------------------------------------
|   0 | SELECT STATEMENT     |        |
|   1 |  VIEW                |        |
|   2 |   SORT UNIQUE        |        |
|   3 |    UNION-ALL         |        |
|*  4 |     TABLE ACCESS FULL| TABLE1 |
|*  5 |     TABLE ACCESS FULL| TABLE2 |
---------------------------------------

Predicate Information (identified by operation id):
---------------------------------------------------    
   4 - filter("A">1)
   5 - filter("A">1)

As you can see at steps (4,5), the predicate is pushed down and applied before the sort (union).

I couldn't get the optimizer to push down an entire sub query such as

 where a = (select max(a) from empty_table)

or a join. With proper PK/FK constraints in place it might be possible, but clearly there are limitations :)

Is there way to use two PHP versions in XAMPP?

I would recommend using Docker, this allows you to split the environment into various components and mix and match the ones you want at any time.

Docker will allow you to run one container with MySQL, another with PHP. As they are separate images you can have two containers, one PHP 5 another PHP 7, you start up which ever one you wish and port 80 can be mapped to both containers.

https://hub.docker.com has a wide range of preconfigured images which you can install and run without much hassle.

I've also added portainer as an image, which allows you to manage the various aspects of your docker setup - from within a docker image (I did start this container on startup to save me having to use the command line). It doesn't do everything for you and sometimes it's easier to configure and launch the images for the first time from the command line, but once setup you can start and stop them through a web interface.

It's also possible to run both containers at the same time and map separate ports to each. So port 80 can be mapped to PHP 5 and 81 to PHP 81 (Or PHP 7 if your watching this in 2017).

There are various tutorials on how to install Docker( https://docs.docker.com/engine/installation/) and loads of other 'how to' type things. Try http://www.masterzendframework.com/docker-development-environment/ for a development environment configuration.

How do I change the root directory of an Apache server?

I had made the /var/www to be a soft link to the required directory (for example, /users/username/projects) and things were fine after that.

However, naturally, the original /var/www needs to be deleted - or renamed.

Why do I have to run "composer dump-autoload" command to make migrations work in laravel?

OK so I think i know the issue you're having.

Basically, because Composer can't see the migration files you are creating, you are having to run the dump-autoload command which won't download anything new, but looks for all of the classes it needs to include again. It just regenerates the list of all classes that need to be included in the project (autoload_classmap.php), and this is why your migration is working after you run that command.

How to fix it (possibly) You need to add some extra information to your composer.json file.

"autoload": {
    "classmap": [
        "PATH TO YOUR MIGRATIONS FOLDER"
    ],
}

You need to add the path to your migrations folder to the classmap array. Then run the following three commands...

php artisan clear-compiled 
composer dump-autoload
php artisan optimize

This will clear the current compiled files, update the classes it needs and then write them back out so you don't have to do it again.

Ideally, you execute composer dump-autoload -o , for a faster load of your webpages. The only reason it is not default, is because it takes a bit longer to generate (but is only slightly noticable).

Hope you can manage to get this sorted, as its very annoying indeed :(

Slicing a dictionary

You should be iterating over the tuple and checking if the key is in the dict not the other way around, if you don't check if the key exists and it is not in the dict you are going to get a key error:

print({k:d[k] for k in l if k in d})

Some timings:

 {k:d[k] for k in set(d).intersection(l)}

In [22]: %%timeit                        
l = xrange(100000)
{k:d[k] for k in l}
   ....: 
100 loops, best of 3: 11.5 ms per loop

In [23]: %%timeit                        
l = xrange(100000)
{k:d[k] for k in set(d).intersection(l)}
   ....: 
10 loops, best of 3: 20.4 ms per loop

In [24]: %%timeit                        
l = xrange(100000)
l = set(l)                              
{key: d[key] for key in d.viewkeys() & l}
   ....: 
10 loops, best of 3: 24.7 ms per

In [25]: %%timeit                        

l = xrange(100000)
{k:d[k] for k in l if k in d}
   ....: 
100 loops, best of 3: 17.9 ms per loop

I don't see how {k:d[k] for k in l} is not readable or elegant and if all elements are in d then it is pretty efficient.

index.php not loading by default

While adding 'DirectoryIndex index.php' to a .htaccess file may work,

NOTE:

In general, you should never use .htaccess files

This is quoted from http://httpd.apache.org/docs/1.3/howto/htaccess.html
Although this refers to an older version of apache, I believe the principle still applies.

Adding the following to your httpd.conf (if you have access to it) is considered better form, causes less server overhead and has the exact same effect:

<Directory /myapp>
DirectoryIndex index.php
</Directory>

Get source jar files attached to Eclipse for Maven-managed dependencies

I am sure m2eclipse Maven plugin for Eclipse - the other way around - can do that. You can configure it to download both the source files and javadoc automatically for you.

This is achieved by going into Window > Preferences > Maven and checking the "Download Artifact Sources" and "Download Artifact JavaDoc" options.

How to open a URL in a new Tab using JavaScript or jQuery?

I know your question does not specify if you are trying to open all a tags in a new window or only the external links.

But in case you only want external links to open in a new tab you can do this:

$( 'a[href^="http://"]' ).attr( 'target','_blank' )
$( 'a[href^="https://"]' ).attr( 'target','_blank' )

  <Run Text="°C"/>
  <Run Text=" ("/>
  <Run Text="{Binding Fahrenheit}"/>
  <Run Text="°F)"/>

Sending Multipart File as POST parameters with RestTemplate requests

I recently struggled with this issue for 3 days. How the client is sending the request might not be the cause, the server might not be configured to handle multipart requests. This is what I had to do to get it working:

pom.xml - Added commons-fileupload dependency (download and add the jar to your project if you are not using dependency management such as maven)

<dependency>
  <groupId>commons-fileupload</groupId>
  <artifactId>commons-fileupload</artifactId>
  <version>${commons-version}</version>
</dependency>

web.xml - Add multipart filter and mapping

<filter>
  <filter-name>multipartFilter</filter-name>
  <filter-class>org.springframework.web.multipart.support.MultipartFilter</filter-class>
</filter>
<filter-mapping>
  <filter-name>multipartFilter</filter-name>
  <url-pattern>/springrest/*</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>

app-context.xml - Add multipart resolver

<beans:bean id="multipartResolver" class="org.springframework.web.multipart.commons.CommonsMultipartResolver">
    <beans:property name="maxUploadSize">
        <beans:value>10000000</beans:value>
    </beans:property>
</beans:bean>

Your Controller

@RequestMapping(value=Constants.REQUEST_MAPPING_ADD_IMAGE, method = RequestMethod.POST, produces = { "application/json"})
public @ResponseBody boolean saveStationImage(
        @RequestParam(value = Constants.MONGO_STATION_PROFILE_IMAGE_FILE) MultipartFile file,
        @RequestParam(value = Constants.MONGO_STATION_PROFILE_IMAGE_URI) String imageUri, 
        @RequestParam(value = Constants.MONGO_STATION_PROFILE_IMAGE_TYPE) String imageType, 
        @RequestParam(value = Constants.MONGO_FIELD_STATION_ID) String stationId) {
    // Do something with file
    // Return results
}

Your client

public static Boolean updateStationImage(StationImage stationImage) {
    if(stationImage == null) {
        Log.w(TAG + ":updateStationImage", "Station Image object is null, returning.");
        return null;
    }

    Log.d(TAG, "Uploading: " + stationImage.getImageUri());
    try {
        RestTemplate restTemplate = new RestTemplate();
        FormHttpMessageConverter formConverter = new FormHttpMessageConverter();
        formConverter.setCharset(Charset.forName("UTF8"));
        restTemplate.getMessageConverters().add(formConverter);
        restTemplate.getMessageConverters().add(new MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter());

        restTemplate.setRequestFactory(new HttpComponentsClientHttpRequestFactory());

        HttpHeaders httpHeaders = new HttpHeaders();
        httpHeaders.setAccept(Collections.singletonList(MediaType.parseMediaType("application/json")));

        MultiValueMap<String, Object> parts = new LinkedMultiValueMap<String, Object>();

        parts.add(Constants.STATION_PROFILE_IMAGE_FILE, new FileSystemResource(stationImage.getImageFile()));
        parts.add(Constants.STATION_PROFILE_IMAGE_URI, stationImage.getImageUri());
        parts.add(Constants.STATION_PROFILE_IMAGE_TYPE, stationImage.getImageType());
        parts.add(Constants.FIELD_STATION_ID, stationImage.getStationId());

        return restTemplate.postForObject(Constants.REST_CLIENT_URL_ADD_IMAGE, parts, Boolean.class);
    } catch (Exception e) {
        StringWriter sw = new StringWriter();
        e.printStackTrace(new PrintWriter(sw));

        Log.e(TAG + ":addStationImage", sw.toString());
    }

    return false;
}

That should do the trick. I added as much information as possible because I spent days, piecing together bits and pieces of the full issue, I hope this will help.

How to get html to print return value of javascript function?

There are some options to do that.

One would be:

document.write(produceMessage())

Other would be appending some element in your document this way:

var span = document.createElement("span");
span.appendChild(document.createTextNode(produceMessage()));
document.body.appendChild(span);

Or just:

document.body.appendChild(document.createTextNode(produceMessage()));

If you're using jQuery, you can do this:

$(document.body).append(produceMessage());

jQuery get content between <div> tags

I suggest that you give an if to the div than:

$("#my_div_id").html();

SQL Server Operating system error 5: "5(Access is denied.)"

If you get this error on an .MDF file in the APP_DATA folder (or where ever you put it) for a Visual Studio project, the way I did it was to simply copy permissions from the existing DATA folder here (I'm using SQL Express 2014 to support an older app):

C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL12.SQLEXPRESS2014\MSSQL\DATA

(note: your actual install path my vary - especially if your instance name is different)

Double click on theDATA folder first as administrator to make sure you have access, then open the properties on the folder and mimic the same for the APP_DATA folder. In my case the missing user was MSSQL$SQLEXPRESS2014 (because I named the instance SQLEXPRESS2014 - yours may be different). That also happens to be the SQL Server service username.

EntityType 'IdentityUserLogin' has no key defined. Define the key for this EntityType

The problem is that your ApplicationUser inherits from IdentityUser, which is defined like this:

IdentityUser : IdentityUser<string, IdentityUserLogin, IdentityUserRole, IdentityUserClaim>, IUser
....
public virtual ICollection<TRole> Roles { get; private set; }
public virtual ICollection<TClaim> Claims { get; private set; }
public virtual ICollection<TLogin> Logins { get; private set; }

and their primary keys are mapped in the method OnModelCreating of the class IdentityDbContext:

modelBuilder.Entity<TUserRole>()
            .HasKey(r => new {r.UserId, r.RoleId})
            .ToTable("AspNetUserRoles");

modelBuilder.Entity<TUserLogin>()
            .HasKey(l => new {l.LoginProvider, l.ProviderKey, l.UserId})
            .ToTable("AspNetUserLogins");

and as your DXContext doesn't derive from it, those keys don't get defined.

If you dig into the sources of Microsoft.AspNet.Identity.EntityFramework, you will understand everything.

I came across this situation some time ago, and I found three possible solutions (maybe there are more):

Use separate DbContexts against two different databases or the same database but different tables.
Merge your DXContext with ApplicationDbContext and use one database.
Use separate DbContexts against the same table and manage their migrations accordingly.

Option 1: See update the bottom.

Option 2: You will end up with a DbContext like this one:

public class DXContext : IdentityDbContext<User, Role,
    int, UserLogin, UserRole, UserClaim>//: DbContext
{
    public DXContext()
        : base("name=DXContext")
    {
        Database.SetInitializer<DXContext>(null);// Remove default initializer
        Configuration.ProxyCreationEnabled = false;
        Configuration.LazyLoadingEnabled = false;
    }

    public static DXContext Create()
    {
        return new DXContext();
    }

    //Identity and Authorization
    public DbSet<UserLogin> UserLogins { get; set; }
    public DbSet<UserClaim> UserClaims { get; set; }
    public DbSet<UserRole> UserRoles { get; set; }
    
    // ... your custom DbSets
    public DbSet<RoleOperation> RoleOperations { get; set; }

    protected override void OnModelCreating(DbModelBuilder modelBuilder)
    {
        base.OnModelCreating(modelBuilder);

        modelBuilder.Conventions.Remove<PluralizingTableNameConvention>();
        modelBuilder.Conventions.Remove<OneToManyCascadeDeleteConvention>();

        // Configure Asp Net Identity Tables
        modelBuilder.Entity<User>().ToTable("User");
        modelBuilder.Entity<User>().Property(u => u.PasswordHash).HasMaxLength(500);
        modelBuilder.Entity<User>().Property(u => u.Stamp).HasMaxLength(500);
        modelBuilder.Entity<User>().Property(u => u.PhoneNumber).HasMaxLength(50);

        modelBuilder.Entity<Role>().ToTable("Role");
        modelBuilder.Entity<UserRole>().ToTable("UserRole");
        modelBuilder.Entity<UserLogin>().ToTable("UserLogin");
        modelBuilder.Entity<UserClaim>().ToTable("UserClaim");
        modelBuilder.Entity<UserClaim>().Property(u => u.ClaimType).HasMaxLength(150);
        modelBuilder.Entity<UserClaim>().Property(u => u.ClaimValue).HasMaxLength(500);
    }
}

Option 3: You will have one DbContext equal to the option 2. Let's name it IdentityContext. And you will have another DbContext called DXContext:

public class DXContext : DbContext
{        
    public DXContext()
        : base("name=DXContext") // connection string in the application configuration file.
    {
        Database.SetInitializer<DXContext>(null); // Remove default initializer
        Configuration.LazyLoadingEnabled = false;
        Configuration.ProxyCreationEnabled = false;
    }

    // Domain Model
    public DbSet<User> Users { get; set; }
    // ... other custom DbSets
    
    public static DXContext Create()
    {
        return new DXContext();
    }

    protected override void OnModelCreating(DbModelBuilder modelBuilder)
    {
        base.OnModelCreating(modelBuilder);

        modelBuilder.Conventions.Remove<PluralizingTableNameConvention>();

        // IMPORTANT: we are mapping the entity User to the same table as the entity ApplicationUser
        modelBuilder.Entity<User>().ToTable("User"); 
    }

    public DbQuery<T> Query<T>() where T : class
    {
        return Set<T>().AsNoTracking();
    }
}

where User is:

public class User
{
    public int Id { get; set; }

    [Required, StringLength(100)]
    public string Name { get; set; }

    [Required, StringLength(128)]
    public string SomeOtherColumn { get; set; }
}

With this solution, I'm mapping the entity User to the same table as the entity ApplicationUser.

Then, using Code First Migrations you'll need to generate the migrations for the IdentityContext and THEN for the DXContext, following this great post from Shailendra Chauhan: Code First Migrations with Multiple Data Contexts

You'll have to modify the migration generated for DXContext. Something like this depending on which properties are shared between ApplicationUser and User:

        //CreateTable(
        //    "dbo.User",
        //    c => new
        //        {
        //            Id = c.Int(nullable: false, identity: true),
        //            Name = c.String(nullable: false, maxLength: 100),
        //            SomeOtherColumn = c.String(nullable: false, maxLength: 128),
        //        })
        //    .PrimaryKey(t => t.Id);
        AddColumn("dbo.User", "SomeOtherColumn", c => c.String(nullable: false, maxLength: 128));

and then running the migrations in order (first the Identity migrations) from the global.asax or any other place of your application using this custom class:

public static class DXDatabaseMigrator
{
    public static string ExecuteMigrations()
    {
        return string.Format("Identity migrations: {0}. DX migrations: {1}.", ExecuteIdentityMigrations(),
            ExecuteDXMigrations());
    }

    private static string ExecuteIdentityMigrations()
    {
        IdentityMigrationConfiguration configuration = new IdentityMigrationConfiguration();
        return RunMigrations(configuration);
    }

    private static string ExecuteDXMigrations()
    {
        DXMigrationConfiguration configuration = new DXMigrationConfiguration();
        return RunMigrations(configuration);
    }

    private static string RunMigrations(DbMigrationsConfiguration configuration)
    {
        List<string> pendingMigrations;
        try
        {
            DbMigrator migrator = new DbMigrator(configuration);
            pendingMigrations = migrator.GetPendingMigrations().ToList(); // Just to be able to log which migrations were executed

            if (pendingMigrations.Any())                
                    migrator.Update();     
        }
        catch (Exception e)
        {
            ExceptionManager.LogException(e);
            return e.Message;
        }
        return !pendingMigrations.Any() ? "None" : string.Join(", ", pendingMigrations);
    }
}

This way, my n-tier cross-cutting entities don't end up inheriting from AspNetIdentity classes, and therefore I don't have to import this framework in every project where I use them.

Sorry for the extensive post. I hope it could offer some guidance on this. I have already used options 2 and 3 in production environments.

UPDATE: Expand Option 1

For the last two projects I have used the 1st option: having an AspNetUser class that derives from IdentityUser, and a separate custom class called AppUser. In my case, the DbContexts are IdentityContext and DomainContext respectively. And I defined the Id of the AppUser like this:

public class AppUser : TrackableEntity
{
    [Key, DatabaseGenerated(DatabaseGeneratedOption.None)]
    // This Id is equal to the Id in the AspNetUser table and it's manually set.
    public override int Id { get; set; }

(TrackableEntity is the custom abstract base class that I use in the overridden SaveChanges method of my DomainContext context)

I first create the AspNetUser and then the AppUser. The drawback with this approach is that you have ensured that your "CreateUser" functionality is transactional (remember that there will be two DbContexts calling SaveChanges separately). Using TransactionScope didn't work for me for some reason, so I ended up doing something ugly but that works for me:

        IdentityResult identityResult = UserManager.Create(aspNetUser, model.Password);

        if (!identityResult.Succeeded)
            throw new TechnicalException("User creation didn't succeed", new LogObjectException(result));

        AppUser appUser;
        try
        {
            appUser = RegisterInAppUserTable(model, aspNetUser);
        }
        catch (Exception)
        {
            // Roll back
            UserManager.Delete(aspNetUser);
            throw;
        }

(Please, if somebody comes with a better way of doing this part I appreciate commenting or proposing an edit to this answer)

The benefits are that you don't have to modify the migrations and you can use any crazy inheritance hierarchy over the AppUser without messing with the AspNetUser. And actually, I use Automatic Migrations for my IdentityContext (the context that derives from IdentityDbContext):

public sealed class IdentityMigrationConfiguration : DbMigrationsConfiguration<IdentityContext>
{
    public IdentityMigrationConfiguration()
    {
        AutomaticMigrationsEnabled = true;
        AutomaticMigrationDataLossAllowed = false;
    }

    protected override void Seed(IdentityContext context)
    {
    }
}

This approach also has the benefit of avoiding to have your n-tier cross-cutting entities inheriting from AspNetIdentity classes.

How to convert an NSString into an NSNumber

You can use -[NSString integerValue], -[NSString floatValue], etc. However, the correct (locale-sensitive, etc.) way to do this is to use -[NSNumberFormatter numberFromString:] which will give you an NSNumber converted from the appropriate locale and given the settings of the NSNumberFormatter (including whether it will allow floating point values).

PHP class not found but it's included

If you've included the file correctly and file exists and still getting error:

Then make sure:
Your included file contains the class and is not defined within any namespace.
If the class is in a namespace then:
instead of new YourClass() you've to do new YourNamespace\YourClass()

Insert multiple lines into a file after specified pattern using shell script

This answer is easy to understand

Copy before the pattern
Add your lines
Copy after the pattern
Replace original file

FILENAME='app/Providers/AuthServiceProvider.php'

STEP 1 copy until the pattern

sed '/THEPATTERNYOUARELOOKINGFOR/Q' $FILENAME >>${FILENAME}_temp

STEP 2 add your lines

cat << 'EOL' >> ${FILENAME}_temp

HERE YOU COPY AND
PASTE MULTIPLE
LINES, ALSO YOU CAN
//WRITE COMMENTS

AND NEW LINES
AND SPECIAL CHARS LIKE $THISONE

EOL

STEP 3 add the rest of the file

grep -A 9999 'THEPATTERNYOUARELOOKINGFOR' $FILENAME >>${FILENAME}_temp

REPLACE original file

mv ${FILENAME}_temp $FILENAME

if you need variables, in step 2 replace 'EOL' with EOL

cat << EOL >> ${FILENAME}_temp

this variable will expand: $variable1

EOL

sed command with -i option failing on Mac, but works on Linux

Here's how to apply environment variables to template file (no backup need).

1. Create template with {{FOO}} for later replace.

echo "Hello {{FOO}}" > foo.conf.tmpl

2. Replace {{FOO}} with FOO variable and output to new foo.conf file

FOO="world" && sed -e "s/{{FOO}}/$FOO/g" foo.conf.tmpl > foo.conf

How to select records from last 24 hours using SQL?

MySQL :

SELECT * 
FROM table_name
WHERE table_name.the_date > DATE_SUB(NOW(), INTERVAL 24 HOUR)

The INTERVAL can be in YEAR, MONTH, DAY, HOUR, MINUTE, SECOND

For example, In the last 10 minutes

SELECT * 
FROM table_name
WHERE table_name.the_date > DATE_SUB(NOW(), INTERVAL 10 MINUTE)

Is there a way to SELECT and UPDATE rows at the same time?

in SQL 2008 a new TSQL statement "MERGE" is introduced which performs insert, update, or delete operations on a target table based on the results of a join with a source table. You can synchronize two tables by inserting, updating, or deleting rows in one table based on differences found in the other table.

How to turn off gcc compiler optimization to enable buffer overflow

You don't need to disable ASLR in order to do a buffer overflow! Although ASLR is enabled (kernel_randomize_va_space = 2), it will not take effect unless the compiled executable is PIE. So unless you compiled your file with -fPIC -pie flag, ASLR will not take effect.

I think only disabling the canaries with -fno-stack-protector is enough. If you want to check if ASLR is working or not (Position independent code must be set), use:

hardening-check executable_name

The Definitive C Book Guide and List

Beginner

Introductory, no previous programming experience

C++ Primer * (Stanley Lippman, Josée Lajoie, and Barbara E. Moo) (updated for C++11) Coming at 1k pages, this is a very thorough introduction into C++ that covers just about everything in the language in a very accessible format and in great detail. The fifth edition (released August 16, 2012) covers C++11. [Review]

^{* Not to be confused with C++ Primer Plus (Stephen Prata), with a significantly less favorable review.}
Programming: Principles and Practice Using C++ (Bjarne Stroustrup, 2nd Edition - May 25, 2014) (updated for C++11/C++14) An introduction to programming using C++ by the creator of the language. A good read, that assumes no previous programming experience, but is not only for beginners.

Introductory, with previous programming experience

A Tour of C++ (Bjarne Stroustrup) (2nd edition for C++17) The “tour” is a quick (about 180 pages and 14 chapters) tutorial overview of all of standard C++ (language and standard library, and using C++11) at a moderately high level for people who already know C++ or at least are experienced programmers. This book is an extended version of the material that constitutes Chapters 2-5 of The C++ Programming Language, 4th edition.
Accelerated C++ (Andrew Koenig and Barbara Moo, 1st Edition - August 24, 2000) This basically covers the same ground as the C++ Primer, but does so on a fourth of its space. This is largely because it does not attempt to be an introduction to programming, but an introduction to C++ for people who've previously programmed in some other language. It has a steeper learning curve, but, for those who can cope with this, it is a very compact introduction to the language. (Historically, it broke new ground by being the first beginner's book to use a modern approach to teaching the language.) Despite this, the C++ it teaches is purely C++98. [Review]

Best practices

Effective C++ (Scott Meyers, 3rd Edition - May 22, 2005) This was written with the aim of being the best second book C++ programmers should read, and it succeeded. Earlier editions were aimed at programmers coming from C, the third edition changes this and targets programmers coming from languages like Java. It presents ~50 easy-to-remember rules of thumb along with their rationale in a very accessible (and enjoyable) style. For C++11 and C++14 the examples and a few issues are outdated and Effective Modern C++ should be preferred. [Review]
Effective Modern C++ (Scott Meyers) This is basically the new version of Effective C++, aimed at C++ programmers making the transition from C++03 to C++11 and C++14.
Effective STL (Scott Meyers) This aims to do the same to the part of the standard library coming from the STL what Effective C++ did to the language as a whole: It presents rules of thumb along with their rationale. [Review]

Intermediate

More Effective C++ (Scott Meyers) Even more rules of thumb than Effective C++. Not as important as the ones in the first book, but still good to know.
Exceptional C++ (Herb Sutter) Presented as a set of puzzles, this has one of the best and thorough discussions of the proper resource management and exception safety in C++ through Resource Acquisition is Initialization (RAII) in addition to in-depth coverage of a variety of other topics including the pimpl idiom, name lookup, good class design, and the C++ memory model. [Review]
More Exceptional C++ (Herb Sutter) Covers additional exception safety topics not covered in Exceptional C++, in addition to discussion of effective object-oriented programming in C++ and correct use of the STL. [Review]
Exceptional C++ Style (Herb Sutter) Discusses generic programming, optimization, and resource management; this book also has an excellent exposition of how to write modular code in C++ by using non-member functions and the single responsibility principle. [Review]
C++ Coding Standards (Herb Sutter and Andrei Alexandrescu) “Coding standards” here doesn't mean “how many spaces should I indent my code?” This book contains 101 best practices, idioms, and common pitfalls that can help you to write correct, understandable, and efficient C++ code. [Review]
C++ Templates: The Complete Guide (David Vandevoorde and Nicolai M. Josuttis) This is the book about templates as they existed before C++11. It covers everything from the very basics to some of the most advanced template metaprogramming and explains every detail of how templates work (both conceptually and at how they are implemented) and discusses many common pitfalls. Has excellent summaries of the One Definition Rule (ODR) and overload resolution in the appendices. A second edition covering C++11, C++14 and C++17 has been already published. [Review]
C++ 17 - The Complete Guide (Nicolai M. Josuttis) This book describes all the new features introduced in the C++17 Standard covering everything from the simple ones like 'Inline Variables', 'constexpr if' all the way up to 'Polymorphic Memory Resources' and 'New and Delete with overaligned Data'. [Review]
C++ in Action (Bartosz Milewski). This book explains C++ and its features by building an application from ground up. [Review]
Functional Programming in C++ (Ivan Cukic). This book introduces functional programming techniques to modern C++ (C++11 and later). A very nice read for those who want to apply functional programming paradigms to C++.
Professional C++ (Marc Gregoire, 5th Edition - Feb 2021) Provides a comprehensive and detailed tour of the C++ language implementation replete with professional tips and concise but informative in-text examples, emphasizing C++20 features. Uses C++20 features, such as modules and std::format throughout all examples.

Advanced

Modern C++ Design (Andrei Alexandrescu) A groundbreaking book on advanced generic programming techniques. Introduces policy-based design, type lists, and fundamental generic programming idioms then explains how many useful design patterns (including small object allocators, functors, factories, visitors, and multi-methods) can be implemented efficiently, modularly, and cleanly using generic programming. [Review]
C++ Template Metaprogramming (David Abrahams and Aleksey Gurtovoy)
C++ Concurrency In Action (Anthony Williams) A book covering C++11 concurrency support including the thread library, the atomics library, the C++ memory model, locks and mutexes, as well as issues of designing and debugging multithreaded applications. A second edition covering C++14 and C++17 has been already published. [Review]
Advanced C++ Metaprogramming (Davide Di Gennaro) A pre-C++11 manual of TMP techniques, focused more on practice than theory. There are a ton of snippets in this book, some of which are made obsolete by type traits, but the techniques, are nonetheless useful to know. If you can put up with the quirky formatting/editing, it is easier to read than Alexandrescu, and arguably, more rewarding. For more experienced developers, there is a good chance that you may pick up something about a dark corner of C++ (a quirk) that usually only comes about through extensive experience.

Reference Style - All Levels

The C++ Programming Language (Bjarne Stroustrup) (updated for C++11) The classic introduction to C++ by its creator. Written to parallel the classic K&R, this indeed reads very much like it and covers just about everything from the core language to the standard library, to programming paradigms to the language's philosophy. [Review] Note: All releases of the C++ standard are tracked in the question "Where do I find the current C or C++ standard documents?".
C++ Standard Library Tutorial and Reference (Nicolai Josuttis) (updated for C++11) The introduction and reference for the C++ Standard Library. The second edition (released on April 9, 2012) covers C++11. [Review]
The C++ IO Streams and Locales (Angelika Langer and Klaus Kreft) There's very little to say about this book except that, if you want to know anything about streams and locales, then this is the one place to find definitive answers. [Review]

C++11/14/17/… References:

The C++11/14/17 Standard (INCITS/ISO/IEC 14882:2011/2014/2017) This, of course, is the final arbiter of all that is or isn't C++. Be aware, however, that it is intended purely as a reference for experienced users willing to devote considerable time and effort to its understanding. The C++17 standard is released in electronic form for 198 Swiss Francs.
The C++17 standard is available, but seemingly not in an economical form – directly from the ISO it costs 198 Swiss Francs (about $200 US). For most people, the final draft before standardization is more than adequate (and free). Many will prefer an even newer draft, documenting new features that are likely to be included in C++20.

The C++ Core Guidelines (C++11/14/17/…) (edited by Bjarne Stroustrup and Herb Sutter) is an evolving online document consisting of a set of guidelines for using modern C++ well. The guidelines are focused on relatively higher-level issues, such as interfaces, resource management, memory management and concurrency affecting application architecture and library design. The project was announced at CppCon'15 by Bjarne Stroustrup and others and welcomes contributions from the community. Most guidelines are supplemented with a rationale and examples as well as discussions of possible tool support. Many rules are designed specifically to be automatically checkable by static analysis tools.
The C++ Super-FAQ (Marshall Cline, Bjarne Stroustrup and others) is an effort by the Standard C++ Foundation to unify the C++ FAQs previously maintained individually by Marshall Cline and Bjarne Stroustrup and also incorporating new contributions. The items mostly address issues at an intermediate level and are often written with a humorous tone. Not all items might be fully up to date with the latest edition of the C++ standard yet.
cppreference.com (C++03/11/14/17/…) (initiated by Nate Kohl) is a wiki that summarizes the basic core-language features and has extensive documentation of the C++ standard library. The documentation is very precise but is easier to read than the official standard document and provides better navigation due to its wiki nature. The project documents all versions of the C++ standard and the site allows filtering the display for a specific version. The project was presented by Nate Kohl at CppCon'14.

Classics / Older

Note: Some information contained within these books may not be up-to-date or no longer considered best practice.

Ruminations on C++ - (Andrew Koenig and Barbara Moo) [Review]
Advanced C++ Programming Styles and Idioms (James Coplien) A predecessor of the pattern movement, it describes many C++-specific “idioms”. It's certainly a very good book and might still be worth a read if you can spare the time, but quite old and not up-to-date with current C++.
Large Scale C++ Software Design (John Lakos) Lakos explains techniques to manage very big C++ software projects. Certainly, a good read, if it only was up to date. It was written long before C++ 98 and misses on many features (e.g. namespaces) important for large-scale projects. If you need to work in a big C++ software project, you might want to read it, although you need to take more than a grain of salt with it. The first volume of a new edition is released in 2019.
Inside the C++ Object Model (Stanley Lippman) If you want to know how virtual member functions are commonly implemented and how base objects are commonly laid out in memory in a multi-inheritance scenario, and how all this affects performance, this is where you will find thorough discussions of such topics.
The Annotated C++ Reference Manual (Bjarne Stroustrup, Margaret A. Ellis) This book is quite outdated in the fact that it explores the 1989 C++ 2.0 version - Templates, exceptions, namespaces and new casts were not yet introduced. Saying that however, this book goes through the entire C++ standard of the time explaining the rationale, the possible implementations, and features of the language. This is not a book to learn programming principles and patterns on C++, but to understand every aspect of the C++ language.
Thinking in C++ (Bruce Eckel, 2nd Edition, 2000). Two volumes; is a tutorial style free set of intro level books. Downloads: vol 1, vol 2. Unfortunately they're marred by a number of trivial errors (e.g. maintaining that temporaries are automatically const), with no official errata list. A partial 3^rd party errata list is available at http://www.computersciencelab.com/Eckel.htm, but it is apparently not maintained.
Scientific and Engineering C++: An Introduction to Advanced Techniques and Examples (John Barton and Lee Nackman) It is a comprehensive and very detailed book that tried to explain and make use of all the features available in C++, in the context of numerical methods. It introduced at the time several new techniques, such as the Curiously Recurring Template Pattern (CRTP, also called Barton-Nackman trick). It pioneered several techniques such as dimensional analysis and automatic differentiation. It came with a lot of compilable and useful code, ranging from an expression parser to a Lapack wrapper. The code is still available online. Unfortunately, the books have become somewhat outdated in the style and C++ features, however, it was an incredible tour-de-force at the time (1994, pre-STL). The chapters on dynamics inheritance are a bit complicated to understand and not very useful. An updated version of this classic book that includes move semantics and the lessons learned from the STL would be very nice.

h1 { font-size: 20pt; }
h2 { font-size: 16pt; }

java SSL and cert keystore

First of all, there're two kinds of keystores.

Individual and General

The application will use the one indicated in the startup or the default of the system.

It will be a different folder if JRE or JDK is running, or if you check the personal or the "global" one.

They are encrypted too

In short, the path will be like:

$JAVA_HOME/lib/security/cacerts for the "general one", who has all the CA for the Authorities and is quite important.

How to append elements at the end of ArrayList in Java?

import java.util.*;


public class matrixcecil {
    public static void main(String args[]){
        List<Integer> k1=new ArrayList<Integer>(10);
        k1.add(23);
        k1.add(10);
        k1.add(20);
        k1.add(24);
        int i=0;
        while(k1.size()<10){
            if(i==(k1.get(k1.size()-1))){

            }
             i=k1.get(k1.size()-1);
             k1.add(30);
             i++;
             break;
        }
        System.out.println(k1);
    }

}

I think this example will help you for better solution.

How to inherit constructors?

As Foo is a class can you not create virtual overloaded Initialise() methods? Then they would be available to sub-classes and still extensible?

public class Foo
{
   ...
   public Foo() {...}

   public virtual void Initialise(int i) {...}
   public virtual void Initialise(int i, int i) {...}
   public virtual void Initialise(int i, int i, int i) {...}
   ... 
   public virtual void Initialise(int i, int i, ..., int i) {...}

   ...

   public virtual void SomethingElse() {...}
   ...
}

This shouldn't have a higher performance cost unless you have lots of default property values and you hit it a lot.

How can I write text on a HTML5 canvas element?

It is easy to write text to a canvas. Lets say that you canvas is declared like below.

<html>
  <canvas id="YourCanvas" width="500" height="500">
   Your Internet Browser does not support HTML5 (Get a new Browser)
  </canvas>
</html>

This part of the code returns a variable into canvas which is a representation of your canvas in HTML.

  var c  = document.getElementById("YourCanvas");

The following code returns the methods for drawing lines, text, fills to your canvas.

  var ctx = canvas.getContext("2d");

<script>
  ctx.font="20px Times Roman";
  ctx.fillText("Hello World!",50,100);

  ctx.font="30px Verdana";

  var g = ctx.createLinearGradient(0,0,c.width,0);

  g.addColorStop("0","magenta");
  g.addColorStop("0.3","blue");
  g.addColorStop("1.0","red");

  ctx.fillStyle=g; //Sets the fille of your text here. In this case it is set to the gradient that was created above. But you could set it to Red, Green, Blue or whatever.

  ctx.fillText("This is some new and funny TEXT!",40,190);
</script>

There is a beginners guide out on Amazon for the kindle http://www.amazon.com/HTML5-Canvas-Guide-Beginners-ebook/dp/B00JSFVY9O/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1398113376&sr=8-4&keywords=html5+canvas+beginners that is well worth the money. I purchased it a couple of days ago and it showed me a lot of simple techniques that were very useful.

Are there any disadvantages to always using nvarchar(MAX)?

Sometimes you want the data type to enforce some sense on the data in it.

Say for example you have a column that really shouldn't be longer than, say, 20 characters. If you define that column as VARCHAR(MAX), some rogue application could insert a long string into it and you'd never know, or have any way of preventing it.

The next time your application uses that string, under the assumption that the length of the string is modest and reasonable for the domain it represents, you will experience an unpredictable and confusing result.

UTF-8, UTF-16, and UTF-32

In UTF-32 all of characters are coded with 32 bits. The advantage is that you can easily calculate the length of the string. The disadvantage is that for each ASCII characters you waste an extra three bytes.

In UTF-8 characters have variable length, ASCII characters are coded in one byte (eight bits), most western special characters are coded either in two bytes or three bytes (for example € is three bytes), and more exotic characters can take up to four bytes. Clear disadvantage is, that a priori you cannot calculate string's length. But it's takes lot less bytes to code Latin (English) alphabet text, compared to UTF-32.

UTF-16 is also variable length. Characters are coded either in two bytes or four bytes. I really don't see the point. It has disadvantage of being variable length, but hasn't got the advantage of saving as much space as UTF-8.

Of those three, clearly UTF-8 is the most widely spread.

Creating default object from empty value in PHP?

I had similar problem and this seem to solve the problem. You just need to initialize the $res object to a class . Suppose here the class name is test.

class test
{
   //You can keep the class empty or declare your success variable here
}
$res = new test();
$res->success = false;

How to implement debounce in Vue2?

I had the same problem and here is a solution that works without plugins.

Since <input v-model="xxxx"> is exactly the same as

<input
   v-bind:value="xxxx"
   v-on:input="xxxx = $event.target.value"
>

(source)

I figured I could set a debounce function on the assigning of xxxx in xxxx = $event.target.value

like this

<input
   v-bind:value="xxxx"
   v-on:input="debounceSearch($event.target.value)"
>

methods:

debounceSearch(val){
  if(search_timeout) clearTimeout(search_timeout);
  var that=this;
  search_timeout = setTimeout(function() {
    that.xxxx = val; 
  }, 400);
},

matplotlib: colorbars and its text labels

To add to tacaswell's answer, the colorbar() function has an optional cax input you can use to pass an axis on which the colorbar should be drawn. If you are using that input, you can directly set a label using that axis.

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from mpl_toolkits.axes_grid1 import make_axes_locatable

fig, ax = plt.subplots()
heatmap = ax.imshow(data)
divider = make_axes_locatable(ax)
cax = divider.append_axes('bottom', size='10%', pad=0.6)
cb = fig.colorbar(heatmap, cax=cax, orientation='horizontal')

cax.set_xlabel('data label')  # cax == cb.ax

Looping through all the properties of object php

Sometimes, you need to list the variables of an object and not for debugging purposes. The right way to do it is using get_object_vars($object). It returns an array that has all the class variables and their value. You can then loop through them in a foreach loop. If used within the object itself, simply do get_object_vars($this)

Python: Making a beep noise

The cross-platform way to do this is to print('\a'). This will send the ASCII Bell character to stdout, and will hopefully generate a beep (a for 'alert'). Note that many modern terminal emulators provide the option to ignore bell characters.

Since you're on Windows, you'll be happy to hear that Windows has its own (brace yourself) Beep API, which allows you to send beeps of arbitrary length and pitch. Note that this is a Windows-only solution, so you should probably prefer print('\a') unless you really care about Hertz and milliseconds.

The Beep API is accessed through the winsound module: http://docs.python.org/library/winsound.html

Insert a new row into DataTable

Release generating .pdb files, why?

.PDB file is the short name of "Program Database". It contains the information about debug point for debugger and resources which are used or reference. Its generated when we build as debug mode. Its allow to application to debug at runtime.

The size is increase of .PDB file in debug mode. It is used when we are testing our application.

How should I call 3 functions in order to execute them one after the other?

asec=1000; 

setTimeout('some_3secs_function("somevalue")',asec*3);
setTimeout('some_5secs_function("somevalue")',asec*5);
setTimeout('some_8secs_function("somevalue")',asec*8);

I won't go into a deep discussion of setTimeout here, but:

in this case I've added the code to execute as a string. this is the simplest way to pass a var into your setTimeout-ed function, but purists will complain.
you can also pass a function name without quotes, but no variable can be passed.
your code does not wait for setTimeout to trigger.
This one can be hard to get your head around at first: because of the previous point, if you pass a variable from your calling function, that variable will not exist anymore by the time the timeout triggers - the calling function will have executed and it's vars gone.
I have been known to use anonymous functions to get around all this, but there could well be a better way,

How to add an image in Tkinter?

Git merge with force overwrite

Not really related to this answer, but I'd ditch git pull, which just runs git fetch followed by git merge. You are doing three merges, which is going to make your Git run three fetch operations, when one fetch is all you will need. Hence:

git fetch origin   # update all our origin/* remote-tracking branches

git checkout demo         # if needed -- your example assumes you're on it
git merge origin/demo     # if needed -- see below

git checkout master
git merge origin/master

git merge -X theirs demo   # but see below

git push origin master     # again, see below

Controlling the trickiest merge

The most interesting part here is git merge -X theirs. As root545 noted, the -X options are passed on to the merge strategy, and both the default recursive strategy and the alternative resolve strategy take -X ours or -X theirs (one or the other, but not both). To understand what they do, though, you need to know how Git finds, and treats, merge conflicts.

A merge conflict can occur within some file¹ when the base version differs from both the current (also called local, HEAD, or --ours) version and the other (also called remote or --theirs) version of that same file. That is, the merge has identified three revisions (three commits): base, ours, and theirs. The "base" version is from the merge base between our commit and their commit, as found in the commit graph (for much more on this, see other StackOverflow postings). Git has then found two sets of changes: "what we did" and "what they did". These changes are (in general) found on a line-by-line, purely textual basis. Git has no real understanding of file contents; it is merely comparing each line of text.

These changes are what you see in git diff output, and as always, they have context as well. It's possible that things we changed are on different lines from things they changed, so that the changes seem like they would not collide, but the context has also changed (e.g., due to our change being close to the top or bottom of the file, so that the file runs out in our version, but in theirs, they have also added more text at the top or bottom).

If the changes happen on different lines—for instance, we change color to colour on line 17 and they change fred to barney on line 71—then there is no conflict: Git simply takes both changes. If the changes happen on the same lines, but are identical changes, Git takes one copy of the change. Only if the changes are on the same lines, but are different changes, or that special case of interfering context, do you get a modify/modify conflict.

The -X ours and -X theirs options tell Git how to resolve this conflict, by picking just one of the two changes: ours, or theirs. Since you said you are merging demo (theirs) into master (ours) and want the changes from demo, you would want -X theirs.

Blindly applying -X, however, is dangerous. Just because our changes did not conflict on a line-by-line basis does not mean our changes do not actually conflict! One classic example occurs in languages with variable declarations. The base version might declare an unused variable:

int i;

In our version, we delete the unused variable to make a compiler warning go away—and in their version, they add a loop some lines later, using i as the loop counter. If we combine the two changes, the resulting code no longer compiles. The -X option is no help here since the changes are on different lines.

If you have an automated test suite, the most important thing to do is to run the tests after merging. You can do this after committing, and fix things up later if needed; or you can do it before committing, by adding --no-commit to the git merge command. We'll leave the details for all of this to other postings.

¹You can also get conflicts with respect to "file-wide" operations, e.g., perhaps we fix the spelling of a word in a file (so that we have a change), and they delete the entire file (so that they have a delete). Git will not resolve these conflicts on its own, regardless of -X arguments.

Doing fewer merges and/or smarter merges and/or using rebase

There are three merges in both of our command sequences. The first is to bring origin/demo into the local demo (yours uses git pull which, if your Git is very old, will fail to update origin/demo but will produce the same end result). The second is to bring origin/master into master.

It's not clear to me who is updating demo and/or master. If you write your own code on your own demo branch, and others are writing code and pushing it to the demo branch on origin, then this first-step merge can have conflicts, or produce a real merge. More often than not, it's better to use rebase, rather than merge, to combine work (admittedly, this is a matter of taste and opinion). If so, you might want to use git rebase instead. On the other hand, if you never do any of your own commits on demo, you don't even need a demo branch. Alternatively, if you want to automate a lot of this, but be able to check carefully when there are commits that both you and others, made, you might want to use git merge --ff-only origin/demo: this will fast-forward your demo to match the updated origin/demo if possible, and simply outright fail if not (at which point you can inspect the two sets of changes, and choose a real merge or a rebase as appropriate).

This same logic applies to master, although you are doing the merge on master, so you definitely do need a master. It is, however, even likelier that you would want the merge to fail if it cannot be done as a fast-forward non-merge, so this probably also should be git merge --ff-only origin/master.

Let's say that you never do your own commits on demo. In this case we can ditch the name demo entirely:

git fetch origin   # update origin/*

git checkout master
git merge --ff-only origin/master || die "cannot fast-forward our master"

git merge -X theirs origin/demo || die "complex merge conflict"

git push origin master

If you are doing your own demo branch commits, this is not helpful; you might as well keep the existing merge (but maybe add --ff-only depending on what behavior you want), or switch it to doing a rebase. Note that all three methods may fail: merge may fail with a conflict, merge with --ff-only may not be able to fast-forward, and rebase may fail with a conflict (rebase works by, in essence, cherry-picking commits, which uses the merge machinery and hence can get a merge conflict).

Reading entire html file to String?

Here's a solution to retrieve the html of a webpage using only standard java libraries:

import java.io.*;
import java.net.*;

String urlToRead = "https://google.com";
URL url; // The URL to read
HttpURLConnection conn; // The actual connection to the web page
BufferedReader rd; // Used to read results from the web page
String line; // An individual line of the web page HTML
String result = ""; // A long string containing all the HTML
try {
 url = new URL(urlToRead);
 conn = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
 conn.setRequestMethod("GET");
 rd = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(conn.getInputStream()));
 while ((line = rd.readLine()) != null) {
  result += line;
 }
 rd.close();
} catch (Exception e) {
 e.printStackTrace();
}

System.out.println(result);

Remove Android App Title Bar

I was able to do this for Android 2.1 devices and above using an App Compatibility library theme applied to the app element in the manifest:

<application
    ...
    android:theme="@style/AppTheme" />

<style name="AppTheme" parent="@style/Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar">
    ...
   <item name="windowNoTitle">true</item>
   <item name="android:windowNoTitle">true</item>

Convert an enum to List<string>

Use Enum's static method, GetNames. It returns a string[], like so:

Enum.GetNames(typeof(DataSourceTypes))

If you want to create a method that does only this for only one type of enum, and also converts that array to a List, you can write something like this:

public List<string> GetDataSourceTypes()
{
    return Enum.GetNames(typeof(DataSourceTypes)).ToList();
}

You will need Using System.Linq; at the top of your class to use .ToList()

Deleting specific rows from DataTable

the easy way use this in button :

Can curl make a connection to any TCP ports, not just HTTP/HTTPS?

Yes, it's possible, the syntax is curl [protocol://]<host>[:port], for example:

curl example.com:1234

If you're using Bash, you can also use pseudo-device /dev files to open a TCP connection, e.g.:

exec 5<>/dev/tcp/127.0.0.1/1234
echo "send some stuff" >&5
cat <&5 # Receive some stuff.

UPDATE: Adjusted code per the comments:

After viewing your jsFiddle, an important thing to note about tables is that table cell widths in each additional row all have to be the same width as the first, and all cells must add to the total width of your table.

Here is an example that will NOT WORK:

<table width="600" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
  <tr>
    <td width="200" bgcolor="#252525">&nbsp;
    </td>
    <td width="400" bgcolor="#454545">&nbsp;
    </td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td width="300" bgcolor="#252525">&nbsp;
    </td>
    <td width="300" bgcolor="#454545">&nbsp;
    </td>
  </tr>
</table>

Although the 2nd row does add up to 600, it (and any additional rows) must have the same 200-400 split as the first row, unless you are using colspans. If you use a colspan, you could have one row, but it needs to have the same width as the cells it is spanning, so this works:

<table width="600" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
  <tr>
    <td width="200" bgcolor="#252525">&nbsp;
    </td>
    <td width="400" bgcolor="#454545">&nbsp;
    </td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td width="600" colspan="2" bgcolor="#353535">&nbsp;
    </td>
  </tr>
</table>

Not a full tutorial, but I hope that helps steer you in the right direction in the future.

Here is the code you are after:

<table width="900" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
  <tr>
    <td width="57" height="43" valign="top" rowspan="2">
      <img alt="Rashel Adragna" src="http://zoparealtygroup.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/sig_head.png" width="47" height="43" style="margin: 0; border: 0; padding: 0; display: block;">
    </td>
    <td width="843" height="43" style="font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: #000000;">
<a href="" style="color: #D31145; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;">RASHEL ADRAGNA</a><br>
REALTOR | P 855.900.24KW
    </td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td width="843" height="64" valign="bottom" style="font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: #000000;">
<img alt="Zopa Realty Group logo" src="http://zoparealtygroup.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/sig_logo.png" width="177" height="54" style="margin: 0; border: 0; padding: 0; display: block;">
    </td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td width="843" colspan="2" height="20" valign="bottom" align="center" style="font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10px; color: #000000;">
all your minor text here | all your minor text here | all your minor text here
    </td>
  </tr>
</table>

You'll note that I've added an extra 10px to some of your table cells. This in combination with align/valigns act as padding between your cells. It is a clever way to aviod actually having to add padding, margins or empty padding cells.

history.replaceState() example?

Here is a minimal, contrived example.

console.log( window.location.href );  // whatever your current location href is
window.history.replaceState( {} , 'foo', '/foo' );
console.log( window.location.href );  // oh, hey, it replaced the path with /foo

There is more to replaceState() but I don't know what exactly it is that you want to do with it.

How to output MySQL query results in CSV format?

This solution places the SQL query in a heredoc and pipes the output though a filter:

$cat query.sh 
#!/bin/bash

mysql --defaults-group-suffix=[DATABASE_NAME] --batch << EOF | python query.py
SELECT [FIELDS]
FROM [TABLE]
EOF

This version of the python filter works without requiring the use of the csv module:

$cat query.py 
import sys

for line in sys.stdin:
    print(','.join(["\"" + str(element) + "\"" for element in line.rstrip('\n').split('\t')]))

This version of the python filter uses the csv module and involves slightly more code but is arguably a little bit more clear:

$cat query.py 
import csv, sys

csv_reader = csv.reader(sys.stdin, delimiter='\t')
csv_writer = csv.writer(sys.stdout, quoting=csv.QUOTE_NONNUMERIC)

for line in csv_reader:
    csv_writer.writerow(line)

Or you could use pandas:

$cat query.py 
import csv, sys
import pandas as pd

df = pd.read_csv(sys.stdin, sep='\t')
df.to_csv(sys.stdout, index=False, quoting=csv.QUOTE_NONNUMERIC)

How to sort a List<Object> alphabetically using Object name field

You can use sortThisBy() from Eclipse Collections:

MutableList<Campaign> list = Lists.mutable.empty();
list.sortThisBy(Campaign::getName);

If you can't change the type of list from List:

List<Campaign> list = new ArrayList<>();
ListAdapter.adapt(list).sortThisBy(Campaign::getName);

Note: I am a contributor to Eclipse Collections.

What does 'useLegacyV2RuntimeActivationPolicy' do in the .NET 4 config?

After a bit of time (and more searching), I found this blog entry by Jomo Fisher.

One of the recent problems we’ve seen is that, because of the support for side-by-side runtimes, .NET 4.0 has changed the way that it binds to older mixed-mode assemblies. These assemblies are, for example, those that are compiled from C++\CLI. Currently available DirectX assemblies are mixed mode. If you see a message like this then you know you have run into the issue:

Mixed mode assembly is built against version 'v1.1.4322' of the runtime and cannot be loaded in the 4.0 runtime without additional configuration information.

[Snip]

The good news for applications is that you have the option of falling back to .NET 2.0 era binding for these assemblies by setting an app.config flag like so:
<startup useLegacyV2RuntimeActivationPolicy="true">
  <supportedRuntime version="v4.0"/>
</startup>

So it looks like the way the runtime loads mixed-mode assemblies has changed. I can't find any details about this change, or why it was done. But the useLegacyV2RuntimeActivationPolicy attribute reverts back to CLR 2.0 loading.

How to check if JavaScript object is JSON

The answer by @PeterWilkinson didn't work for me because a constructor for a "typed" object is customized to the name of that object. I had to work with typeof

function isJson(obj) {
    var t = typeof obj;
    return ['boolean', 'number', 'string', 'symbol', 'function'].indexOf(t) == -1;
}

Original purpose of <input type="hidden">?

In short, the original purpose was to make a field which will be submitted with form's submit. Sometimes, there were need to store some information in hidden field(for example, id of user) and submit it with form's submit.

From HTML September 22, 1995 specification

An INPUT element with `TYPE=HIDDEN' represents a hidden field.The user does not interact with this field; instead, the VALUE attribute specifies the value of the field. The NAME and VALUE attributes are required.

How can I check whether a option already exist in select by JQuery

This evaluates to true if it already exists:

$("#yourSelect option[value='yourValue']").length > 0;

converting string to long in python

Well, longs can't hold anything but integers.

One option is to use a float: float('234.89')

The other option is to truncate or round. Converting from a float to a long will truncate for you: long(float('234.89'))

>>> long(float('1.1'))
1L
>>> long(float('1.9'))
1L
>>> long(round(float('1.1')))
1L
>>> long(round(float('1.9')))
2L

How to get the first and last date of the current year?

Every year has the 1 st as First date and 31 as the last date what you have to do is only attach the year to that day and month for example:-

 SELECT '01/01/'+cast(year(getdate()) as varchar(4)) as [First Day],
 '12/31/'+cast(year(getdate()) as varchar(4)) as [Last Day]

Read XML Attribute using XmlDocument

I have an Xml File books.xml

<ParameterDBConfig>
    <ID Definition="1" />
</ParameterDBConfig>

Program:

XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument();
doc.Load("D:/siva/books.xml");
XmlNodeList elemList = doc.GetElementsByTagName("ID");     
for (int i = 0; i < elemList.Count; i++)     
{
    string attrVal = elemList[i].Attributes["Definition"].Value;
}

Now, attrVal has the value of ID.

Store mysql query output into a shell variable

My two cents here:

myvariable=$(mysql database -u $user -p$password -sse "SELECT A, B, C FROM table_a" 2>&1 \
   | grep -v "Using a password")

Removes both the column names and the annoying (but necessary) password warning. Thanks @Dominic Bartl and John for this answer.

Prevent double submission of forms in jQuery

My solution:

// jQuery plugin to prevent double submission of forms
$.fn.preventDoubleSubmission = function () {
    var $form = $(this);

    $form.find('[type="submit"]').click(function () {
        $(this).prop('disabled', true);
        $form.submit();
    });

    // Keep chainability
    return this;
};

Python: How exactly can you take a string, split it, reverse it and join it back together again?

Do you mean like this?

import string
astr='a(b[c])d'

deleter=string.maketrans('()[]','    ')
print(astr.translate(deleter))
# a b c  d
print(astr.translate(deleter).split())
# ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd']
print(list(reversed(astr.translate(deleter).split())))
# ['d', 'c', 'b', 'a']
print(' '.join(reversed(astr.translate(deleter).split())))
# d c b a

Is it still valid to use IE=edge,chrome=1?

<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge,chrome=1" /> serves two purposes.

IE=edge: specifies that IE should run in the highest mode available to that version of IE as opposed to a compatability mode; IE8 can support up to IE8 modes, IE9 can support up to IE9 modes, and so on.
chrome=1: specifies that Google Chrome frame should start if the user has it installed

The IE=edge flag is still relevant for IE versions 10 and below. IE11 sets this mode as the default.

As for the chrome flag, you can leave it if your users still use Chrome Frame. Despite support and updates for Chrome Frame ending, one can still install and use the final release. If you remove the flag, Chrome Frame will not be activated when installed. For other users, chrome=1 will do nothing more than consume a few bytes of bandwidth.

I recommend you analyze your audience and see if their browsers prohibit any needed features and then decide. Perhaps it might be better to encourage them to use a more modern, evergreen browser.

Note, the W3C validator will flag chrome=1 as an error:

Error: A meta element with an http-equiv attribute whose value is
X-UA-Compatible must have a content attribute with the value IE=edge.

Fixed header table with horizontal scrollbar and vertical scrollbar on

Here's a solution which again is not a CSS only solution. It is similar to avrahamcool's solution in that it uses a few lines of jQuery, but instead of changing heights and moving the header along, all it does is changing the width of tbody based on how far its parent table is scrolled along to the right.

An added bonus with this solution is that it works with a semantically valid HTML table.

It works great on all recent browser versions (IE10, Chrome, FF) and that's it, the scrolling functionality breaks on older versions.

But then the fact that you are using a semantically valid HTML table will save the day and ensure the table is still displayed properly, it's only the scrolling functionality that won't work on older browsers.

Here's a jsFiddle for demonstration purposes.

CSS

table {
    width: 300px;
    overflow-x: scroll;
    display: block;
}
thead, tbody {
    display: block;
}
tbody {
    overflow-y: scroll;
    overflow-x: hidden;
    height: 140px;
}
td, th {
    min-width: 100px;
}

$("table").on("scroll", function () {
    $("table > *").width($("table").width() + $("table").scrollLeft());
});

I needed a version which degrades nicely in IE9 (no scrolling, just a normal table). Posting the fiddle here as it is an improved version. All you need to do is set a height on the tr.

Additional CSS to make this solution degrade nicely in IE9

tr {
    height: 25px; /* This could be any value, it just needs to be set. */ 
}

Here's a jsFiddle demonstrating the nicely degrading in IE9 version of this solution.

Edit: Updated fiddle links to link to a version of the fiddle which contains fixes for issues mentioned in the comments. Just adding a snippet with the latest and greatest version while I'm at it:

How can I set focus on an element in an HTML form using JavaScript?

window.onload is to put focus initially onblur is to put focus while you click outside of the textarea,or avoid text area blur

    <textarea id="focus"></textarea>
    <script>
     var mytexarea=document.getElementById("focus");
    window.onload=function()
    {

    mytexarea.focus();

    }

mytextarea.onblur=function(){

mytextarea.focus();

}
    </script>

Angular 2.0 router not working on reloading the browser

How to submit a form when the return key is pressed?

I tried various javascript/jQuery-based strategies, but I kept having issues. The latest issue to arise involved accidental submission when the user uses the enter key to select from the browser's built-in auto-complete list. I finally switched to this strategy, which seems to work on all the browsers my company supports:

<div class="hidden-submit"><input type="submit" tabindex="-1"/></div>

.hidden-submit {
    border: 0 none;
    height: 0;
    width: 0;
    padding: 0;
    margin: 0;
    overflow: hidden;
}

This is similar to the currently-accepted answer by Chris Marasti-Georg, but by avoiding display: none, it appears to work correctly on all browsers.

Update

I edited the code above to include a negative tabindex so it doesn't capture the tab key. While this technically won't validate in HTML 4, the HTML5 spec includes language to make it work the way most browsers were already implementing it anyway.

How to get the <html> tag HTML with JavaScript / jQuery?

In addition to some of the other answers, you could also access the HTML element via:

var htmlEl = document.body.parentNode;

Then you could get the inner HTML content:

var inner = htmlEl.innerHTML;

Doing so this way seems to be marginally faster. If you are just obtaining the HTML element, however, document.body.parentNode seems to be quite a bit faster.

After you have the HTML element, you can mess with the attributes with the getAttribute and setAttribute methods.

For the DOCTYPE, you could use document.doctype, which was elaborated upon in this question.

Is it fine to have foreign key as primary key?

Foreign keys are almost always "Allow Duplicates," which would make them unsuitable as Primary Keys.

Instead, find a field that uniquely identifies each record in the table, or add a new field (either an auto-incrementing integer or a GUID) to act as the primary key.

The only exception to this are tables with a one-to-one relationship, where the foreign key and primary key of the linked table are one and the same.

Lambda function in list comprehensions

People gave good answers but forgot to mention the most important part in my opinion: In the second example the X of the list comprehension is NOT the same as the X of the lambda function, they are totally unrelated. So the second example is actually the same as:

[Lambda X: X*X for I in range(10)]

The internal iterations on range(10) are only responsible for creating 10 similar lambda functions in a list (10 separate functions but totally similar - returning the power 2 of each input).

On the other hand, the first example works totally different, because the X of the iterations DO interact with the results, for each iteration the value is X*X so the result would be [0,1,4,9,16,25, 36, 49, 64 ,81]

Saving an image in OpenCV

SayntLewis is right. When you activate the camera with cvCaptureFromCAM, the auto white balance is not yet adjusted (it's a slow process), so you may get a mostly white or mostly black (depends on the camera and your lightning conditions) on the first frames. The same happens when there's a sudden change of the lightning of the scene. Just wait some time after opening the camera, flush the buffer and you're ready to go.

Getting date format m-d-Y H:i:s.u from milliseconds

You can readily do this this with the input format U.u.

$now = DateTime::createFromFormat('U.u', microtime(true));
echo $now->format("m-d-Y H:i:s.u");

This produces the following output:

04-13-2015 05:56:22.082300

From the PHP manual page for date formats:

U = Seconds since the Unix Epoch
u = Microseconds

http://php.net/manual/en/function.date.php

Thanks goes to giggsey for pointing out a flaw in my original answer, adding number_format() to the line should fix the case of the exact second. Too bad it doesn't feel quite as elegant any more...

$now = DateTime::createFromFormat('U.u', number_format(microtime(true), 6, '.', ''));

http://php.net/manual/en/function.number-format.php

A note on time zones in response to DaVe.

Normally the createFromFormat() method will use the local time zone if one is not specified.

http://php.net/manual/en/datetime.createfromformat.php

However, the technique described here is initialising the DateTime object using microtime() which returns the number of seconds elapsed since the Unix Epoch (01 Jan 1970 00:00:00 GMT).

http://php.net/manual/en/function.microtime.php

This means that the DateTime object is implicitly initialised to UTC, which is fine for server internal tasks that just want to track elapsed time.

If you need to display the time for a particular time zone then you need to set it accordingly. However, this should be done as a separate step after the initialisation (not using the third parameter of createFromFormat()) because of the reasons discussed above.

The setTimeZone() method can be used to accomplish this requirement.

http://php.net/manual/en/datetime.settimezone.php

As an example:

$now = DateTime::createFromFormat('U.u', number_format(microtime(true), 6, '.', ''));
echo $now->format("m-d-Y H:i:s.u") . '<br>';

$local = $now->setTimeZone(new DateTimeZone('Australia/Canberra'));
echo $local->format("m-d-Y H:i:s.u") . '<br>';

Produces the following output:

10-29-2015 00:40:09.433818
10-29-2015 11:40:09.433818

Note that if you want to input into mysql, the time format needs to be:

format("Y-m-d H:i:s.u")

Typescript: Type 'string | undefined' is not assignable to type 'string'

Had the same issue.

I find out that react-scrips add "strict": true to tsconfig.json.

After I removed it everything works great.

Edit

Need to warn that changing this property means that you:

not being warned about potential run-time errors anymore.

as been pointed out by PaulG in comments! Thank you :)

Use "strict": false only if you fully understand what it affects!

How do I remove javascript validation from my eclipse project?

I was able to exclude the jquery.mobile 1.1.1 in Juno by selecting Add Multiple next to the Exlusion Patterns, which brings up the tree, then drilling down to the jquery-mobile folder and selecting that.

This corrected all the warnings for the library!

How to hide column of DataGridView when using custom DataSource?

MyDataGridView.RowHeadersVisible = False; Before binding and rename each columns header and set columns width. To help my failing memory when I search, because I will search ... that's for sure ;-)

How can I copy network files using Robocopy?

I use the following format and works well.

robocopy \\SourceServer\Path \\TargetServer\Path filename.txt

to copy everything you can replace filename.txt with *.* and there are plenty of other switches to copy subfolders etc... see here: http://ss64.com/nt/robocopy.html

Link to a section of a webpage

Hashtags at the end of the URL bring a visitor to the element with the ID: e.g.

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8424785/link-to-a-section-of-a-webpage#answers

Would bring you to where the DIV with the ID 'answers' begins. Also, you can use the name attribute in anchor tags, to create the same effect.

Managing large binary files with Git

git clone --filter from Git 2.19 + shallow clones

This new option might eventually become the final solution to the binary file problem, if the Git and GitHub devs and make it user friendly enough (which they arguably still haven't achieved for submodules for example).

It allows to actually only fetch files and directories that you want for the server, and was introduced together with a remote protocol extension.

With this, we could first do a shallow clone, and then automate which blobs to fetch with the build system for each type of build.

There is even already a --filter=blob:limit<size> which allows limiting the maximum blob size to fetch.

I have provided a minimal detailed example of how the feature looks like at: How do I clone a subdirectory only of a Git repository?

How to find Current open Cursors in Oracle

This could work:

SELECT    sql_text "SQL Query", 
          Count(*) AS "Open Cursors" 
FROM      v$open_cursor 
GROUP BY  sql_text 
HAVING    Count(*) > 2 
ORDER BY  Count(*) DESC;

Warning: "continue" targeting switch is equivalent to "break". Did you mean to use "continue 2"?

I had the same issue. but fixed it by downloading composer & installing it from scratch.

Check if TextBox is empty and return MessageBox?

Well, you are clearing the textbox right before you check if it's empty

/* !! This clears the textbox BEFORE you check if it's empty */
MaterialTextBox.Clear();

HoursNumericUpDown.Value = HoursNumericUpDown.Minimum;
MarkNumericUpDown.Value = MarkNumericUpDown.Minimum;

if (String.IsNullOrEmpty(MaterialTextBox.Text))
{
        MessageBox.Show("Enter Material Name Please.", "Error", MessageBoxButtons.OK,    MessageBoxIcon.Warning);
            //dataGridView1.Rows.Clear();
}

Convert int (number) to string with leading zeros? (4 digits)

Use the ToString() method - standard and custom numeric format strings. Have a look at the MSDN article How to: Pad a Number with Leading Zeros.

string text = no.ToString("0000");

Visual Studio 64 bit?

No! There is no 64-bit version of Visual Studio.

How to know it is not 64-bit: Once you download Visual Studio and click the install button, you will see that the initialization folder it selects automatically is C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0

As per my understanding, all 64-bit programs/applications goes to C:\Program Files and all 32-bit applications goes to C:\Program Files (x86) from Windows 7 onwards.

How to deal with page breaks when printing a large HTML table

The accepted answer did not work for me in all browsers, but following css did work for me:

tr    
{ 
  display: table-row-group;
  page-break-inside:avoid; 
  page-break-after:auto;
}

The html structure was:

<table>
  <thead>
    <tr></tr>
  </thead>
  <tbody>
    <tr></tr>
    <tr></tr>
    ...
  </tbody>
</table>

In my case, there were some additional issues with the thead tr, but this resolved the original issue of keeping the table rows from breaking.

Because of the header issues, I ultimately ended up with:

#theTable td *
{
  page-break-inside:avoid;
}

This didn't prevent rows from breaking; just each cell's content.

How to uninstall Eclipse?

Look for an installation subdirectory, likely named eclipse. Under that subdirectory, if you see files like eclipse.ini, icon.xpm and subdirectories like plugins and dropins, remove the subdirectory parent (the one named eclipse).

That will remove your installation except for anything you've set up yourself (like workspaces, projects, etc.).

Hope this helps.

Java Long primitive type maximum limit

Long.MAX_VALUE is 9,223,372,036,854,775,807.

If you were executing your function once per nanosecond, it would still take over 292 years to encounter this situation according to this source.

When that happens, it'll just wrap around to Long.MIN_VALUE, or -9,223,372,036,854,775,808 as others have said.

Find duplicate records in MySQL

we can found the duplicates depends on more then one fields also.For those cases you can use below format.

SELECT COUNT(*), column1, column2

GROUP BY column1, column2
HAVING COUNT(*)>1;

Two dimensional array in python

What you're using here are not arrays, but lists (of lists).

If you want multidimensional arrays in Python, you can use Numpy arrays. You'd need to know the shape in advance.

For example:

 import numpy as np
 arr = np.empty((3, 2), dtype=object)
 arr[0, 1] = 'abc'

Pandas groupby month and year

You can also do it by creating a string column with the year and month as follows:

df['date'] = df.index
df['year-month'] = df['date'].apply(lambda x: str(x.year) + ' ' + str(x.month))
grouped = df.groupby('year-month')

However this doesn't preserve the order when you loop over the groups, e.g.

for name, group in grouped:
    print(name)

Will give:

So then, if you want to preserve the order, you must do as suggested by @Q-man above:

grouped = df.groupby([df.index.year, df.index.month])

This will preserve the order in the above loop:

(2007, 11)
(2007, 12)
(2008, 1)
(2008, 2)
(2008, 3)
(2008, 4)
(2008, 5)
(2008, 6)
(2008, 7)
(2008, 8)
(2008, 9)
(2008, 10)

Adding values to specific DataTable cells

You mean you want to add a new row and only put data in a certain column? Try the following:

var row = dataTable.NewRow();
row[myColumn].Value = "my new value";
dataTable.Add(row);

As it is a data table, though, there will always be data of some kind in every column. It just might be DBNull.Value instead of whatever data type you imagine it would be.

JS file gets a net::ERR_ABORTED 404 (Not Found)

As mentionned in comments: you need a way to send your static files to the client. This can be achieved with a reverse proxy like Nginx, or simply using express.static().

Put all your "static" (css, js, images) files in a folder dedicated to it, different from where you put your "views" (html files in your case). I'll call it static for the example. Once it's done, add this line in your server code:

app.use("/static", express.static('./static/'));

This will effectively serve every file in your "static" folder via the /static route.

Querying your index.js file in the client thus becomes:

<script src="static/index.js"></script>

Use of var keyword in C#

Depends, somehow it makes the code look 'cleaner', but agree it makes it more unreadable to...

jQuery - find child with a specific class

I'm not sure if I understand your question properly, but it shouldn't matter if this div is a child of some other div. You can simply get text from all divs with class bgHeaderH2 by using following code:

$(".bgHeaderH2").text();

SVG rounded corner

I'd also consider using a plain old <rect> which provides the rx and ry attributes

MDN SVG docs <- note the second drawn rect element

error UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xff in position 0: invalid start byte

use only

increase legend font size ggplot2

You can also specify the font size relative to the base_size included in themes such as theme_bw() (where base_size is 11) using the rel() function.

For example:

ggplot(mtcars, aes(disp, mpg, col=as.factor(cyl))) +
  geom_point() +
  theme_bw() +
  theme(legend.text=element_text(size=rel(0.5)))

When is assembly faster than C?

I think the general case when assembler is faster is when a smart assembly programmer looks at the compiler's output and says "this is a critical path for performance and I can write this to be more efficient" and then that person tweaks that assembler or rewrites it from scratch.

How to set input type date's default value to today?

I had the same problem and I fixed it with simple JS. The input:

<input type="date" name="dateOrder" id="dateOrder"  required="required">

the JS

<script language="javascript">
document.getElementById('dateOrder').value = "<?php echo date("Y-m-d"); ?>";
</script>

Important: the JS script should be in the last code line, or after to input, because if you put this code before, the script won't find your input.

How can I get a side-by-side diff when I do "git diff"?

Make div stay at bottom of page's content all the time even when there are scrollbars

Unfortunately you can't do this with out adding a little extra HTML and having one piece of CSS rely on another.

HTML

First you need to wrap your header,footer and #body into a #holder div:

<div id="holder">
    <header>.....</header>
    <div id="body">....</div>
    <footer>....</footer>
</div>

CSS

Then set height: 100% to html and body (actual body, not your #body div) to ensure you can set minimum height as a percentage on child elements.

Now set min-height: 100% on the #holder div so it fills the content of the screen and use position: absolute to sit the footer at the bottom of the #holder div.

Unfortunately, you have to apply padding-bottom to the #body div that is the same height as the footer to ensure that the footer does not sit above any content:

html,body{
    height: 100%
}

#holder{
    min-height: 100%;
    position:relative;
}

#body{
    padding-bottom: 100px;    /* height of footer */
}

footer{
    height: 100px; 
    width:100%;
    position: absolute;
    left: 0;
    bottom: 0; 
}

Working example, short body: http://jsfiddle.net/ELUGc/

Working example, long body: http://jsfiddle.net/ELUGc/1/

jQuery won't parse my JSON from AJAX query

This problem is usually because your request received the wrong mime type. When developing on your own computer, sometimes you are not receiving the proper mime type from the "server", which is your own computer. I ran into this problem once when developing by opening the locally stored file in the browser (e.g. the url was "c:/project/test.html").

Try using the beforeSend property to add a callback function that overrides the mime type. This will trick the code into dealing with json despite the wrong mime type being sent by the server and received by your calling code. Some example code is below.

The proper mime type is application/json according to this question, but I do know that application/j-son worked when I tried it (now several years ago). You should probably try application/json first.

var jsonMimeType = "application/json;charset=UTF-8";
$.ajax({
 type: "GET",
 url: myURL,
 beforeSend: function(x) {
  if(x && x.overrideMimeType) {
   x.overrideMimeType(jsonMimeType);
  }
 },
 dataType: "json",
 success: function(data){
  // do stuff...
 }
});

How do I draw a shadow under a UIView?

All Answer all well but I want to add one more point

If you encounter a problem when you have table cells, Deque a new cell there is a mismatch in shadow so in this case, you need to place your shadow code in a layoutSubviews method so that it will behave nicely in all conditions.

-(void)layoutSubviews{
    [super layoutSubviews];

    [self.contentView setNeedsLayout];
    [self.contentView layoutIfNeeded];
    [VPShadow applyShadowView:self];
}

or in ViewControllers for specific view place shadow code inside the following method so that it's work well

-(void)viewDidLayoutSubviews{
    [super viewDidLayoutSubviews];

    [self.viewShadow layoutIfNeeded];
    [VPShadow applyShadowView:self.viewShadow];
}

I have modified my shadow implementation for new devs for more generalized form ex:

/*!
 @brief Add shadow to a view.

 @param layer CALayer of the view.

 */
+(void)applyShadowOnView:(CALayer *)layer OffsetX:(CGFloat)x OffsetY:(CGFloat)y blur:(CGFloat)radius opacity:(CGFloat)alpha RoundingCorners:(CGFloat)cornerRadius{
    UIBezierPath *shadowPath = [UIBezierPath bezierPathWithRoundedRect:layer.bounds cornerRadius:cornerRadius];
    layer.masksToBounds = NO;
    layer.shadowColor = [UIColor blackColor].CGColor;
    layer.shadowOffset = CGSizeMake(x,y);// shadow x and y
    layer.shadowOpacity = alpha;
    layer.shadowRadius = radius;// blur effect
    layer.shadowPath = shadowPath.CGPath;
}

Integer division: How do you produce a double?

How do you format a Date/Time in TypeScript?

This worked for me

    /**
     * Convert Date type to "YYYY/MM/DD" string 
     * - AKA ISO format?
     * - It's logical and sortable :)
     * - 20200227
     * @param Date eg. new Date()
     * https://stackoverflow.com/questions/23593052/format-javascript-date-as-yyyy-mm-dd 
     * https://stackoverflow.com/questions/23593052/format-javascript-date-as-yyyy-mm-dd?page=2&tab=active#tab-top
     */
    static DateToYYYYMMDD(Date: Date): string {
        let DS: string = Date.getFullYear()
            + '/' + ('0' + (Date.getMonth() + 1)).slice(-2)
            + '/' + ('0' + Date.getDate()).slice(-2)
        return DS
    }

You can certainly add HH:MM something like this...

    static DateToYYYYMMDD_HHMM(Date: Date): string {
        let DS: string = Date.getFullYear()
            + '/' + ('0' + (Date.getMonth() + 1)).slice(-2)
            + '/' + ('0' + Date.getDate()).slice(-2)
            + ' ' + ('0' + Date.getHours()).slice(-2)
            + ':' + ('0' + Date.getMinutes()).slice(-2)
        return DS
    }

Storing money in a decimal column - what precision and scale?

4 decimal places would give you the accuracy to store the world's smallest currency sub-units. You can take it down further if you need micropayment (nanopayment?!) accuracy.

I too prefer DECIMAL to DBMS-specific money types, you're safer keeping that kind of logic in the application IMO. Another approach along the same lines is simply to use a [long] integer, with formatting into ¤unit.subunit for human readability (¤ = currency symbol) done at the application level.

LINQ to SQL - Left Outer Join with multiple join conditions

You need to introduce your join condition before calling DefaultIfEmpty(). I would just use extension method syntax:

from p in context.Periods
join f in context.Facts on p.id equals f.periodid into fg
from fgi in fg.Where(f => f.otherid == 17).DefaultIfEmpty()
where p.companyid == 100
select f.value

Or you could use a subquery:

from p in context.Periods
join f in context.Facts on p.id equals f.periodid into fg
from fgi in (from f in fg
             where f.otherid == 17
             select f).DefaultIfEmpty()
where p.companyid == 100
select f.value

Correct way to handle conditional styling in React

 <div style={{ visibility: this.state.driverDetails.firstName != undefined? 'visible': 'hidden'}}></div>

How to set headers in http get request?

Pay attention that in http.Request header "Host" can not be set via Set method

req.Header.Set("Host", "domain.tld")

but can be set directly:

req.Host = "domain.tld":

req, err := http.NewRequest("GET", "http://10.0.0.1/", nil)
if err != nil {
    ...
}

req.Host = "domain.tld"
client := &http.Client{}
resp, err := client.Do(req)

How to fix "Root element is missing." when doing a Visual Studio (VS) Build?

In my case, i was using vs 2010 with crystal report. Innerexception revealed root element is missing error. Go to directory like C:\Users\sam\AppData\Local\dssms\dssms.vshost.exe_Url_uy5is55gioxym5avqidulehrfjbdsn13\1.0.0.0 which is given in the innermessage and make sure user.config is proper XML (mine was blank for some reason).

Overriding css style?

You just have to reset the values you don't want to their defaults. No need to get into a mess by using !important.

#zoomTarget .slikezamenjanje img {
    max-height: auto;
    padding-right: 0px;
}

Hatting

I think the key datum you are missing is that CSS comes with default values. If you want to override a value, set it back to its default, which you can look up.

For example, all CSS height and width attributes default to auto.

Disabling swap files creation in vim

I agree with those who question why vim needs all this 'disaster recovery' stuff when no other text editors bother with it. I don't want vim creating ANY extra files in the edited file's directory when I'm editing it, thank you very much. To that end, I have this in my _vimrc to disable swap files, and move irritating 'backup' files to the Temp dir:

" Uncomment below to prevent 'tilde backup files' (eg. myfile.txt~) from being created
"set nobackup

" Uncomment below to cause 'tilde backup files' to be created in a different dir so as not to clutter up the current file's directory (probably a better idea than disabling them altogether)
set backupdir=C:\Windows\Temp

" Uncomment below to disable 'swap files' (eg. .myfile.txt.swp) from being created
set noswapfile

Load image from resources area of project in C#

You need to load it from resource stream.

Bitmap bmp = new Bitmap(
  System.Reflection.Assembly.GetEntryAssembly().
    GetManifestResourceStream("MyProject.Resources.myimage.png"));

If you want to know all resource names in your assembly, go with:

string[] all = System.Reflection.Assembly.GetEntryAssembly().
  GetManifestResourceNames();

foreach (string one in all) {
    MessageBox.Show(one);
}

What does the @ symbol before a variable name mean in C#?

It allows you to use a C# keyword as a variable. For example:

class MyClass
{
   public string name { get; set; }
   public string @class { get; set; }
}

How to disable copy/paste from/to EditText

i added Extension Function in Kotlin language :

fun EditText.disableTextSelection() {
    this.setCustomSelectionActionModeCallback(object : android.view.ActionMode.Callback {
        override fun onActionItemClicked(mode: android.view.ActionMode?, item: MenuItem?): Boolean {
            return false
        }
        override fun onCreateActionMode(mode: android.view.ActionMode?, menu: Menu?): Boolean {
            return false
        }
        override fun onPrepareActionMode(mode: android.view.ActionMode?, menu: Menu?): Boolean {
            return false
        }
        override fun onDestroyActionMode(mode: android.view.ActionMode?) {
        }
    })
}

you can use it like this :

edit_text.disableTextSelection()

also added below line in your xml :

                android:longClickable="false"
                android:textIsSelectable="false"

How to get old Value with onchange() event in text box

Maybe you can store the previous value of the textbox into a hidden textbox. Then you can get the first value from hidden and the last value from textbox itself. An alternative related to this, at onfocus event of your textbox set the value of your textbox to an hidden field and at onchange event read the previous value.

Is there a limit on an Excel worksheet's name length?

Renaming a worksheet manually in Excel, you hit a limit of 31 chars, so I'd suggest that that's a hard limit.

how to get the first and last days of a given month

You might want to look at the strtotime and date functions.

<?php

$query_date = '2010-02-04';

// First day of the month.
echo date('Y-m-01', strtotime($query_date));

// Last day of the month.
echo date('Y-m-t', strtotime($query_date));

Difference between using Throwable and Exception in a try catch

Throwable is super class of Exception as well as Error. In normal cases we should always catch sub-classes of Exception, so that the root cause doesn't get lost.

Only special cases where you see possibility of things going wrong which is not in control of your Java code, you should catch Error or Throwable.

I remember catching Throwable to flag that a native library is not loaded.

Choosing bootstrap vs material design

As far as I know you can use all mentioned technologies separately or together. It's up to you. I think you look at the problem from the wrong angle. Material Design is just the way particular elements of the page are designed, behave and put together. Material Design provides great UI/UX, but it relies on the graphic layout (HTML/CSS) rather than JS (events, interactions).

On the other hand, AngularJS and Bootstrap are front-end frameworks that can speed up your development by saving you from writing tons of code. For example, you can build web app utilizing AngularJS, but without Material Design. Or You can build simple HTML5 web page with Material Design without AngularJS or Bootstrap. Finally you can build web app that uses AngularJS with Bootstrap and with Material Design. This is the best scenario. All technologies support each other.

Bootstrap = responsive page
AngularJS = MVC
Material Design = great UI/UX

You can check awesome material design components for AngularJS:

How to convert an OrderedDict into a regular dict in python3

It is easy to convert your OrderedDict to a regular Dict like this:

dict(OrderedDict([('method', 'constant'), ('data', '1.225')]))

If you have to store it as a string in your database, using JSON is the way to go. That is also quite simple, and you don't even have to worry about converting to a regular dict:

import json
d = OrderedDict([('method', 'constant'), ('data', '1.225')])
dString = json.dumps(d)

Or dump the data directly to a file:

with open('outFile.txt','w') as o:
    json.dump(d, o)

How to convert JSON string into List of Java object?

You can also use Gson for this scenario.

Gson gson = new Gson();
NameList nameList = gson.fromJson(data, NameList.class);

List<Name> list = nameList.getList();

Your NameList class could look like:

class NameList{
 List<Name> list;
 //getter and setter
}

How to round the corners of a button

First set width=100 and Height=100 of button

Objective C Solution

YourBtn1.layer.cornerRadius=YourBtn1.Frame.size.width/2;
YourBtn1.layer.borderColor=[uicolor blackColor].CGColor;
YourBtn1.layer.borderWidth=1.0f;

Swift 4 Solution

YourBtn1.layer.cornerRadius = YourBtn1.Frame.size.width/2
YourBtn1.layer.borderColor = UIColor.black.cgColor
YourBtn1.layer.borderWidth = 1.0

Two's Complement in Python

in case someone needs the inverse direction too:

def num_to_bin(num, wordsize):
    if num < 0:
        num = 2**wordsize+num
    base = bin(num)[2:]
    padding_size = wordsize - len(base)
    return '0' * padding_size + base

for i in range(7, -9, -1):
    print num_to_bin(i, 4)

should output this: 0111 0110 0101 0100 0011 0010 0001 0000 1111 1110 1101 1100 1011 1010 1001 1000

Split data frame string column into multiple columns

This question is pretty old but I'll add the solution I found the be the simplest at present.

library(reshape2)
before = data.frame(attr = c(1,30,4,6), type=c('foo_and_bar','foo_and_bar_2'))
newColNames <- c("type1", "type2")
newCols <- colsplit(before$type, "_and_", newColNames)
after <- cbind(before, newCols)
after$type <- NULL
after

'node' is not recognized as an internal or an external command, operable program or batch file while using phonegap/cordova

Add a system variable named "node", with value of your node path. It solves my problem, hope it helps.

Get a timestamp in C in microseconds?

timespec_get from C11 returns up to nanoseconds, rounded to the resolution of the implementation.

#include <time.h>
struct timespec ts;
timespec_get(&ts, TIME_UTC);
struct timespec {
    time_t   tv_sec;        /* seconds */
    long     tv_nsec;       /* nanoseconds */
};

"Invalid JSON primitive" in Ajax processing

Jquery Ajax will default send the data as query string parameters form like:

RecordId=456&UserId=123

unless the processData option is set to false, in which case it will sent as object to the server.

contentType option is for the server that in which format client has sent the data.
dataType option is for the server which tells that what type of data client is expecting back from the server.

Don't specify contentType so that server will parse them as query String parameters not as json.

Use contentType as 'application/json; charset=utf-8' and use JSON.stringify(object) so that server would be able to deserialize json from string.

Python equivalent for HashMap

You need a dict:

my_dict = {'cheese': 'cake'}

Example code (from the docs):

>>> a = dict(one=1, two=2, three=3)
>>> b = {'one': 1, 'two': 2, 'three': 3}
>>> c = dict(zip(['one', 'two', 'three'], [1, 2, 3]))
>>> d = dict([('two', 2), ('one', 1), ('three', 3)])
>>> e = dict({'three': 3, 'one': 1, 'two': 2})
>>> a == b == c == d == e
True

You can read more about dictionaries here.

Recyclerview and handling different type of row inflation

You can just return ItemViewType and use it. See below code:

@Override
public int getItemViewType(int position) {

    Message item = messageList.get(position);
    // return my message layout
    if(item.getUsername() == Message.userEnum.I)
        return R.layout.item_message_me;
    else
        return R.layout.item_message; // return other message layout
}

@Override
public ViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup viewGroup, int viewType) {
    View view = LayoutInflater.from(viewGroup.getContext()).inflate(viewType, viewGroup, false);
    return new ViewHolder(view);
}

MySQL Cannot drop index needed in a foreign key constraint

In my case I dropped the foreign key and I still could not drop the index. That was because there was yet another table that had a foreign key to this table on the same fields. After I dropped the foreign key on the other table I could drop the indexes on this table.

How do I sort a VARCHAR column in SQL server that contains numbers?

There are a few possible ways to do this.

One would be

SELECT
 ...
ORDER BY
  CASE 
    WHEN ISNUMERIC(value) = 1 THEN CONVERT(INT, value) 
    ELSE 9999999 -- or something huge
  END,
  value

the first part of the ORDER BY converts everything to an int (with a huge value for non-numerics, to sort last) then the last part takes care of alphabetics.

Note that the performance of this query is probably at least moderately ghastly on large amounts of data.

What does the following Oracle error mean: invalid column index

I had the exact same problem when using Spring Security 3.1.0. and Oracle 11G. I was using the following query and getting the invalid column index error:

<security:jdbc-user-service data-source-ref="dataSource"
                users-by-username-query="SELECT A.user_name AS username, A.password AS password FROM MB_REG_USER A where A.user_name=lower(?)"

It turns out that I needed to add: "1 as enabled" to the query:

<security:jdbc-user-service data-source-ref="dataSource" users-by-username query="SELECT A.user_name AS username, A.password AS password, 1 as enabled FROM MB_REG_USER A where A.user_name=lower(?)"

Everything worked after that. I believe this could be a bug in the Spring JDBC core package...

How can I create a keystore?

You can create your keystore by exporting a signed APK. When you will try to export/build a signed APK, it will ask for a keystore.

You can choose your existing keystore or you can easily create a new one by clicking create new keystore

Here a link very useful and well-explained of how to create your keystore and generate a signed APK

THis link explained how to do it with Android Studio, but if I remember, it is pretty similar on Eclipse

WATCH OUT

Once you generate your keystore, keep it somewhere safe because you will need it to regenerate a new signed APK.

What does the "@" symbol do in Powershell?

PowerShell will actually treat any comma-separated list as an array:

"server1","server2"

So the @ is optional in those cases. However, for associative arrays, the @ is required:

@{"Key"="Value";"Key2"="Value2"}

Officially, @ is the "array operator." You can read more about it in the documentation that installed along with PowerShell, or in a book like "Windows PowerShell: TFM," which I co-authored.

Dropdown select with images

If you think about it the concept behind a dropdown select it's pretty simple. For what you're trying to accomplish, a simple <ul> will do.

<ul id="menu">
    <li>
        <a href="#"><img src="" alt=""/></a> <!-- Selected -->
        <ul>
            <li><a href="#"><img src="" alt=""/></a></li>
            <li><a href="#"><img src="" alt=""/></a></li>
            <li><a href="#"><img src="" alt=""/></a></li>
            <li><a href="#"><img src="" alt=""/></a></li>
        </ul>
    </li>
</ul>

You style it with css and then some simple jQuery will do. I haven't tried this tho:

$('#menu ul li').click(function(){
    var $a = $(this).find('a');
    $(this).parents('#menu').children('li a').replaceWith($a).
});

Disable button in jQuery

This is the simplest way in my opinion:

_x000D_

// All buttons where id contains 'rbutton_'_x000D_
const $buttons = $("button[id*='rbutton_']");_x000D_
_x000D_
//Selected button onclick_x000D_
$buttons.click(function() {_x000D_
    $(this).prop('disabled', true); //disable clicked button_x000D_
});_x000D_
_x000D_
//Enable button onclick_x000D_
$('#enable').click(() =>_x000D_
    $buttons.prop('disabled', false) //enable all buttons_x000D_
);

_x000D_

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>_x000D_
<button id="rbutton_200">click</button>_x000D_
<button id="rbutton_201">click</button>_x000D_
<button id="rbutton_202">click</button>_x000D_
<button id="rbutton_203">click</button>_x000D_
<button id="rbutton_204">click</button>_x000D_
<button id="rbutton_205">click</button>_x000D_
<button id="enable">enable</button>

Use stored procedure to insert some data into a table

If you have the table definition to have an IDENTITY column e.g. IDENTITY(1,1) then don't include MyId in your INSERT INTO statement. The point of IDENTITY is it gives it the next unused value as the primary key value.

insert into MYDB.dbo.MainTable (MyFirstName, MyLastName, MyAddress, MyPort)
values(@myFirstName, @myLastName, @myAddress, @myPort)

There is then no need to pass the @MyId parameter into your stored procedure either. So change it to:

CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[sp_Test]
@myFirstName nvarchar(50)
,@myLastName nvarchar(50)
,@myAddress nvarchar(MAX)
,@myPort int

AS

If you want to know what the ID of the newly inserted record is add

SELECT @@IDENTITY

to the end of your procedure. e.g. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms187342.aspx

You will then be able to pick this up in which ever way you are calling it be it SQL or .NET.

P.s. a better way to show you table definision would have been to script the table and paste the text into your stackoverflow browser window because your screen shot is missing the column properties part where IDENTITY is set via the GUI. To do that right click the table 'Script Table as' --> 'CREATE to' --> Clipboard. You can also do File or New Query Editor Window (all self explanitory) experient and see what you get.

Why can't I declare static methods in an interface?

Java 8 Had changed the world you can have static methods in interface but it forces you to provide implementation for that.

public interface StaticMethodInterface {
public static int testStaticMethod() {
    return 0;
}

/**
 * Illegal combination of modifiers for the interface method
 * testStaticMethod; only one of abstract, default, or static permitted
 * 
 * @param i
 * @return
 */
// public static abstract int testStaticMethod(float i);

default int testNonStaticMethod() {
    return 1;
}

/**
 * Without implementation.
 * 
 * @param i
 * @return
 */
int testNonStaticMethod(float i);

}
