Programs & Examples On #Administrator

An administrator account is a user account on an operating system which allow make changes that can affect other users (including, but not limited to, the creation and restriction of user accounts), change operating system options (including security settings), install software and drivers, access all files.

How do I force my .NET application to run as administrator?

You'll want to modify the manifest that gets embedded in the program. This works on Visual Studio 2008 and higher: Project + Add New Item, select "Application Manifest File". Change the <requestedExecutionLevel> element to:

 <requestedExecutionLevel level="requireAdministrator" uiAccess="false" />

The user gets the UAC prompt when they start the program. Use wisely; their patience can wear out quickly.

Google Chrome: This setting is enforced by your administrator

for me the default search in chrome was locked by smartsputnik.ru. and deleting all the entries in registry and also resetting and reinstalling chrome did not helped . except the below solution.

  1. Delete related key from the registry entry- Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACCHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Google\Chrome
  2. Delete file - C:\Windows\System32\GroupPolicy\Machine\registry.pol
  3. Restart computer and the problem will be solved

What precisely does 'Run as administrator' do?

When you log on Windows creates an access token. This identifies you, the groups you are a member of and your privileges. And note that whether a user is an administrator or not is determined by whether the user is a member of the Administrators group.

Without UAC, when you run a program it gets a copy of the access token, and this controls what the program can access.

With UAC, when you run a program it gets a restricted access token. This is the original access token with "Administrators" removed from the list of groups (and some other changes). Even though your user is a member of the Administrators group, the program can't use Administrator privileges.

When you select "Run as Administrator" and your user is an administrator the program is launched with the original unrestricted access token. If your user is not an administrator you are prompted for an administrator account, and the program is run under that account.

How do I set a Windows scheduled task to run in the background?

Assuming the application you are attempting to run in the background is CLI based, you can try calling the scheduled jobs using Hidden Start

Batch Script to Run as Administrator

My solution, if you dont need to have .bat file, is to convert the batch file to .exe file then you will be able to set up run as admin.

How do I run a program from command prompt as a different user and as an admin

Runas doesn't magically run commands as an administrator, it runs them as whatever account you provide credentials for. If it's not an administrator account, runas doesn't care.

Running a command as Administrator using PowerShell?

You can easily add some registry entries to get a "Run as administrator" context menu for .ps1 files:

New-Item -Path "Registry::HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Microsoft.PowershellScript.1\Shell\runas\command" `
-Force -Name '' -Value '"c:\windows\system32\windowspowershell\v1.0\powershell.exe" -noexit "%1"'

(updated to a simpler script from @Shay)

Basically at HKCR:\Microsoft.PowershellScript.1\Shell\runas\command set the default value to invoke the script using Powershell.

Start / Stop a Windows Service from a non-Administrator user account

Below I have put together everything I learned about Starting/Stopping a Windows Service from a non-Admin user account, if anyone needs to know.

Primarily, there are two ways in which to Start / Stop a Windows Service. 1. Directly accessing the service through logon Windows user account. 2. Accessing the service through IIS using Network Service account.

Command line command to start / stop services:

C:/> net start <SERVICE_NAME>
C:/> net stop <SERVICE_NAME>

C# Code to start / stop services:

ServiceController service = new ServiceController(SERVICE_NAME);

//Start the service
if (service.Status == ServiceControllerStatus.Stopped)
{
      service.Start();
      service.WaitForStatus(ServiceControllerStatus.Running, TimeSpan.FromSeconds(10.0));
}

//Stop the service
if (service.Status == ServiceControllerStatus.Running)
{
      service.Stop();
      service.WaitForStatus(ServiceControllerStatus.Stopped, TimeSpan.FromSeconds(10.0));
}

Note 1: When accessing the service through IIS, create a Visual Studio C# ASP.NET Web Application and put the code in there. Deploy the WebService to IIS Root Folder (C:\inetpub\wwwroot\) and you're good to go. Access it by the url http:///.

1. Direct Access Method

If the Windows User Account from which either you give the command or run the code is a non-Admin account, then you need to set the privileges to that particular user account so it has the ability to start and stop Windows Services. This is how you do it. Login to an Administrator account on the computer which has the non-Admin account from which you want to Start/Stop the service. Open up the command prompt and give the following command:

C:/>sc sdshow <SERVICE_NAME>

Output of this will be something like this:

D:(A;;CCLCSWRPWPDTLOCRRC;;;SY)(A;;CCDCLCSWRPWPDTLOCRSDRCWDWO;;;BA)(A;;CCLCSWLOCRRC;;;IU)(A;;CCLCSWLOCRRC;;;SU)S:(AU;FA;CCDCLCSWRPWPDTLOCRSDRCWDWO;;;WD)

It lists all the permissions each User / Group on this computer has with regards to .

A description of one part of above command is as follows:

    D:(A;;CCLCSWRPWPDTLOCRRC;;;SY)

It has the default owner, default group, and it has the Security descriptor control flags (A;;CCLCSWRPWPDTLOCRRC;;;SY):

ace_type - "A": ACCESS_ALLOWED_ACE_TYPE,
ace_flags - n/a,
rights - CCLCSWRPWPDTLOCRRC,  please refer to the Access Rights and Access Masks and Directory Services Access Rights
CC: ADS_RIGHT_DS_CREATE_CHILD - Create a child DS object.
LC: ADS_RIGHT_ACTRL_DS_LIST - Enumerate a DS object.
SW: ADS_RIGHT_DS_SELF - Access allowed only after validated rights checks supported by the object are performed. This flag can be used alone to perform all validated rights checks of the object or it can be combined with an identifier of a specific validated right to perform only that check.
RP: ADS_RIGHT_DS_READ_PROP - Read the properties of a DS object.
WP: ADS_RIGHT_DS_WRITE_PROP - Write properties for a DS object.
DT: ADS_RIGHT_DS_DELETE_TREE - Delete a tree of DS objects.
LO: ADS_RIGHT_DS_LIST_OBJECT - List a tree of DS objects.
CR: ADS_RIGHT_DS_CONTROL_ACCESS - Access allowed only after extended rights checks supported by the object are performed. This flag can be used alone to perform all extended rights checks on the object or it can be combined with an identifier of a specific extended right to perform only that check.
RC: READ_CONTROL - The right to read the information in the object's security descriptor, not including the information in the system access control list (SACL). (This is a Standard Access Right, please read more http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa379607(VS.85).aspx)
object_guid - n/a,
inherit_object_guid - n/a,
account_sid - "SY": Local system. The corresponding RID is SECURITY_LOCAL_SYSTEM_RID.

Now what we need to do is to set the appropriate permissions to Start/Stop Windows Services to the groups or users we want. In this case we need the current non-Admin user be able to Start/Stop the service so we are going to set the permissions to that user. To do that, we need the SID of that particular Windows User Account. To obtain it, open up the Registry (Start > regedit) and locate the following registry key.

LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList

Under that there is a seperate Key for each an every user account in this computer, and the key name is the SID of each account. SID are usually of the format S-1-5-21-2103278432-2794320136-1883075150-1000. Click on each Key, and you will see on the pane to the right a list of values for each Key. Locate "ProfileImagePath", and by it's value you can find the User Name that SID belongs to. For instance, if the user name of the account is SACH, then the value of "ProfileImagePath" will be something like "C:\Users\Sach". So note down the SID of the user account you want to set the permissions to.

Note2: Here a simple C# code sample which can be used to obtain a list of said Keys and it's values.

//LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList RegistryKey
RegistryKey profileList = Registry.LocalMachine.OpenSubKey(keyName);

//Get a list of SID corresponding to each account on the computer
string[] sidList = profileList.GetSubKeyNames();

foreach (string sid in sidList)
{
    //Based on above names, get 'Registry Keys' corresponding to each SID
    RegistryKey profile = Registry.LocalMachine.OpenSubKey(Path.Combine(keyName, sid));

    //SID
    string strSID = sid;
    //UserName which is represented by above SID    
    string strUserName = (string)profile.GetValue("ProfileImagePath");
}

Now that we have the SID of the user account we want to set the permissions to, let's get down to it. Let's assume the SID of the user account is S-1-5-21-2103278432-2794320136-1883075150-1000. Copy the output of the [sc sdshow ] command to a text editor. It will look like this:

D:(A;;CCLCSWRPWPDTLOCRRC;;;SY)(A;;CCDCLCSWRPWPDTLOCRSDRCWDWO;;;BA)(A;;CCLCSWLOCRRC;;;IU)(A;;CCLCSWLOCRRC;;;SU)S:(AU;FA;CCDCLCSWRPWPDTLOCRSDRCWDWO;;;WD)

Now, copy the (A;;CCLCSWRPWPDTLOCRRC;;;SY) part of the above text, and paste it just before the S:(AU;... part of the text. Then change that part to look like this: (A;;RPWPCR;;;S-1-5-21-2103278432-2794320136-1883075150-1000)

Then add sc sdset at the front, and enclose the above part with quotes. Your final command should look something like the following:

sc sdset <SERVICE_NAME> "D:(A;;CCLCSWRPWPDTLOCRRC;;;SY)(A;;CCDCLCSWRPWPDTLOCRSDRCWDWO;;;BA)(A;;CCLCSWLOCRRC;;;IU)(A;;CCLCSWLOCRRC;;;SU)(A;;RPWPCR;;;S-1-5-21-2103278432-2794320136-1883075150-1000)S:(AU;FA;CCDCLCSWRPWPDTLOCRSDRCWDWO;;;WD)"

Now execute this in your command prompt, and it should give the output as follows if successful:

[SC] SetServiceObjectSecurity SUCCESS

Now we're good to go! Your non-Admin user account has been granted permissions to Start/Stop your service! Try loggin in to the user account and Start/Stop the service and it should let you do that.

2. Access through IIS Method

In this case, we need to grant the permission to the IIS user "Network Services" instead of the logon Windows user account. The procedure is the same, only the parameters of the command will be changed. Since we set the permission to "Network Services", replace SID with the string "NS" in the final sdset command we used previously. The final command should look something like this:

sc sdset <SERVICE_NAME> "D:(A;;CCLCSWRPWPDTLOCRRC;;;SY)(A;;CCDCLCSWRPWPDTLOCRSDRCWDWO;;;BA)(A;;CCLCSWLOCRRC;;;IU)(A;;CCLCSWLOCRRC;;;SU)(A;;RPWPCR;;;NS)S:(AU;FA;CCDCLCSWRPWPDTLOCRSDRCWDWO;;;WD)"

Execute it in the command prompt from an Admin user account, and voila! You have the permission to Start / Stop the service from any user account (irrespective of whether it ia an Admin account or not) using a WebMethod. Refer to Note1 to find out how to do so.

How do I join two SQLite tables in my Android application?

An alternate way is to construct a view which is then queried just like a table. In many database managers using a view can result in better performance.

CREATE VIEW xyz SELECT q.question, a.alternative  
   FROM tbl_question AS q, tbl_alternative AS a
  WHERE q.categoryid = a.categoryid 
    AND q._id = a.questionid;

This is from memory so there may be some syntactic issues. http://www.sqlite.org/lang_createview.html

I mention this approach because then you can use SQLiteQueryBuilder with the view as you implied that it was preferred.

Kubernetes service external ip pending

The LoadBalancer ServiceType will only work if the underlying infrastructure supports the automatic creation of Load Balancers and have the respective support in Kubernetes, as is the case with the Google Cloud Platform and AWS. If no such feature is configured, the LoadBalancer IP address field is not populated and still in pending status , and the Service will work the same way as a NodePort type Service

Determining the last row in a single column

Never too late to post an alternative answer I hope. Here's a snippet of my Find last Cell. I'm primarily interested in speed. On a DB I'm using with around 150,000 rows this function took (average) 0.087 seconds to find solution compared to @Mogsdad elegant JS solution above which takes (average) 0.53 sec on same data. Both arrays were pre-loaded before the function call. It makes use of recursion to do a binary search. For 100,000+ rows you should find it takes no more than 15 to 20 hops to return it's result.

I've left the Log calls in so you can test it in the console first and see its workings.

/* @OnlyCurrentDoc */

function myLastRow() {

var ss=SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getActiveSheet();
var colArray = ss.getRange('A1:A').getDisplayValues();  // Change to relevant column label and put in Cache
var TestRow=ss.getLastRow();
var MaxRow=ss.getMaxRows(); 

Logger.log ('TestRow = %s',TestRow);
Logger.log ('MaxRow = %s',MaxRow);

var FoundRow=FindLastRow(TestRow,MaxRow);

Logger.log ('FoundRow = %s',FoundRow);    

function FindLastRow(v_TestRow,v_MaxRow) {

/* Some housekeeping/error trapping first
* 1) Check that LastRow doesn't = Max Rows. If so then suggest to add a few lines as this
* indicates the LastRow was the end of the sheet.
* 2) Check it's not a new sheet with no data ie, LastRow = 0 and/or cell A1 is empty.
* 3) A return result of 0 = an error otherwise any positive value is a valid result.
*/

 return   !(colArray[0][0]) ? 1                   // if first row is empty then presume it's a new empty sheet
        :!!(colArray[v_TestRow][0]) ? v_TestRow   // if the last row is not empty then column A was the longest
        : v_MaxRow==v_TestRow ? v_TestRow         // if Last=Max then consider adding a line here to extend row count, else
        : searchPair(0,v_TestRow);                // get on an find the last row
}

function searchPair(LowRow,HighRow){

var BinRow = ((LowRow+HighRow)/2)|0;   // force an INT to avoid row ambiguity

Logger.log ('LowRow/HighRow/BinRow = %s/%s/%s',LowRow, HighRow, BinRow);

/*   Check your log. You shoud find that the last row is always found in under 20 hops.
 *   This will be true whether your data rows are 100 or 100,000 long.
 *   The longest element of this script is loading the Cache (ColArray)
 */

 return   (!(colArray[BinRow-1][0]))^(!(colArray[BinRow][0])) ? BinRow
        : (!(colArray[BinRow-1][0]))&(!(colArray[BinRow][0])) ? searchPair(LowRow,BinRow-1)
        : (!!(colArray[BinRow-1][0]))|(!!(colArray[BinRow][0])) ? searchPair(BinRow+1,HighRow)
        : false;   // Error
 }
}

/* The premise for the above logic is that the binary search is looking for a specific pairing, <Text/No text>
 * on adjacent rows.  You said there are no gaps so the pairing <No Text/Text> is not tested as it's irrelevant.
 * If the logic finds <No Text/No Text> then it looks back up the sheet, if it finds <Text/Text> it looks further
 * down the sheet.  I think you'll find this is quite fast, especially on datasets > 100,000 rows.

Instantiating a generic type

How do I extract value from Json

If you don't mind adding a dependency, you can use JsonPath.

import com.jayway.jsonpath.JsonPath;

String firstName = JsonPath.read(rawJsonString, "$.detail.first_name");

"$" specifies the root of the raw json string and then you just specify the path to the field you want. This will always return a string. You'll have to do any casting yourself.

Be aware that it'll throw a PathNotFoundException at runtime if the path you specify doesn't exist.

Disable SSL fallback and use only TLS for outbound connections in .NET? (Poodle mitigation)

If you're curious which protocols .NET supports, you can try HttpClient out on https://www.howsmyssl.com/

// set proxy if you need to
// WebRequest.DefaultWebProxy = new WebProxy("http://localhost:3128");

File.WriteAllText("howsmyssl-httpclient.html", new HttpClient().GetStringAsync("https://www.howsmyssl.com").Result);

// alternative using WebClient for older framework versions
// new WebClient().DownloadFile("https://www.howsmyssl.com/", "howsmyssl-webclient.html");

The result is damning:

Your client is using TLS 1.0, which is very old, possibly susceptible to the BEAST attack, and doesn't have the best cipher suites available on it. Additions like AES-GCM, and SHA256 to replace MD5-SHA-1 are unavailable to a TLS 1.0 client as well as many more modern cipher suites.

As Eddie explains above, you can enable better protocols manually:

System.Net.ServicePointManager.SecurityProtocol = SecurityProtocolType.Tls12 | SecurityProtocolType.Tls11; 

I don't know why it uses bad protocols out-the-box. That seems a poor setup choice, tantamount to a major security bug (I bet plenty of applications don't change the default). How can we report it?

pip install - locale.Error: unsupported locale setting

The error message indicates a problem with the locale setting. To fix this as indicated by other answers you need to modify your locale.

On Mac OS X Sierra I found that the best way to do this was to modify the ~/bash_profile file as follows:

export LANG="en_US.UTF-8"
export LC_ALL="en_US.UTF-8"
export LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"

This change will not be immediately evident in your current cli session unless you reload the bash profile by using: source ~/.bash_profile.

This answer is pretty close to answers that I've posted to other non-identical, non-duplicate questions (i.e. not related to pipenv) but which happen to require the same solution.

To the moderator: With respect; my previous answer got deleted for this reason but I feel that was a bit silly because really this answer applies almost whenever the error is "problem with locale"... but there are a number of differing situations, languages, and environments which could trigger that error.

Thus it A) doesn't make sense to mark the questions as duplicates and B) doesn't make sense to tailor the answer either because the fix is very simple, is the same in each case and does not benefit from ornamentation.

EOFError: EOF when reading a line

width, height = map(int, input().split())
def rectanglePerimeter(width, height):
   return ((width + height)*2)
print(rectanglePerimeter(width, height))

Running it like this produces:

% echo "1 2" | test.py
6

I suspect IDLE is simply passing a single string to your script. The first input() is slurping the entire string. Notice what happens if you put some print statements in after the calls to input():

width = input()
print(width)
height = input()
print(height)

Running echo "1 2" | test.py produces

1 2
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/unutbu/pybin/test.py", line 5, in <module>
    height = input()
EOFError: EOF when reading a line

Notice the first print statement prints the entire string '1 2'. The second call to input() raises the EOFError (end-of-file error).

So a simple pipe such as the one I used only allows you to pass one string. Thus you can only call input() once. You must then process this string, split it on whitespace, and convert the string fragments to ints yourself. That is what

width, height = map(int, input().split())

does.

Note, there are other ways to pass input to your program. If you had run test.py in a terminal, then you could have typed 1 and 2 separately with no problem. Or, you could have written a program with pexpect to simulate a terminal, passing 1 and 2 programmatically. Or, you could use argparse to pass arguments on the command line, allowing you to call your program with

test.py 1 2

What is the best place for storing uploaded images, SQL database or disk file system?

Most implementations are option A.

With option B, you open a whole big can of whoop4ss when you marshall those bits from the database into something that can be displayed on a browser... Also, if the db is down, the images are not available.

I don't think that space is too much of an issue... Terabyte drives are a couple hundred bucks now.

We are implementing with option A because we don't have the time or resources to do option B.

What represents a double in sql server?

A Float represents double in SQL server. You can find a proof from the coding in C# in visual studio. Here I have declared Overtime as a Float in SQL server and in C#. Thus I am able to convert

int diff=4;
attendance.OverTime = Convert.ToDouble(diff);

Here OverTime is declared float type

Permission denied (publickey) when SSH Access to Amazon EC2 instance

I struggled with the same permission denied error apparently due to

key_parse_private2: missing begin marker 

In my situation the cause was the ssh config file of the current user (~/.ssh/config).

Using the following:

ssh -i ~/myKey.pem ec2-user@<IP address> -v 'exit'

The initial output showed:

debug1: Reading configuration data /home/ec2-user/.ssh/config
debug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh/ssh_config
debug1: /etc/ssh/ssh_config line 56: Applying options for *
debug1: Hostname has changed; re-reading configuration
debug1: Reading configuration data /home/ec2-user/.ssh/config
debug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh/ssh_config

... many debug lines cut here ...

debug1: Next authentication method: publickey
debug1: Trying private key: /home/ec2-user/somekey.pem
debug1: key_parse_private2: missing begin marker
debug1: read PEM private key done: type RSA
debug1: Authentications that can continue: publickey
debug1: No more authentication methods to try.

The third line above is where the problem actual was identified; however, I looked for at the debug message four lines from the bottom (above) and was misled. There isn't a problem with the key but I tested it and compared other configurations.

My user ssh config file reset the host via an unintended global setting as shown below. The first Host line should not have been a comment.

$ cat config
StrictHostKeyChecking=no
#Host myAlias
        user ec2-user
        Hostname bitbucket.org
#        IdentityFile ~/.ssh/somekey
#        IdentitiesOnly yes

Host my2ndAlias
        user myOtherUser
        Hostname bitbucket.org
        IdentityFile ~/.ssh/my2ndKey
        IdentitiesOnly yes

I hope someone else finds this helpful.

C# difference between == and Equals()

The only difference between Equal and == is on object type comparison. in other cases, such as reference types and value types, they are almost the same(either both are bit-wise equality or both are reference equality).

object: Equals: bit-wise equality ==: reference equality

string: (equals and == are the same for string, but if one of string changed to object, then comparison result will be different) Equals: bit-wise equality == : bit-wise equality

See here for more explanation.

Add colorbar to existing axis

This technique is usually used for multiple axis in a figure. In this context it is often required to have a colorbar that corresponds in size with the result from imshow. This can be achieved easily with the axes grid tool kit:

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

data = np.arange(100, 0, -1).reshape(10, 10)

fig, ax = plt.subplots()
divider = make_axes_locatable(ax)
cax = divider.append_axes('right', size='5%', pad=0.05)

im = ax.imshow(data, cmap='bone')

fig.colorbar(im, cax=cax, orientation='vertical')
plt.show()

Image with proper colorbar in size

Implode an array with JavaScript?

Array.join is what you need, but if you like, the friendly people at phpjs.org have created implode for you.

Then some slightly off topic ranting. As @jon_darkstar alreadt pointed out, jQuery is JavaScript and not vice versa. You don't need to know JavaScript to be able to understand how to use jQuery, but it certainly doesn't hurt and once you begin to appreciate reusability or start looking at the bigger picture you absolutely need to learn it.

How to connect android emulator to the internet

I think some of the answers may have addressed this, however obliquely, but here's what worked for me.

Assuming your problem is occurring when you're on a wireless network and you have a LAN card installed, the issue is that the emulator tries to obtain its DNS settings from that LAN card. Not a problem when you're connected via that LAN, but utterly useless if you're on a wireless connection. I noticed this when I was on my laptop.

So, how to fix? Simple: Disable your LAN card. Really. Just go to your Network connections, find your LAN card, right click it and choose disable. Now try your emulator. If you're like me, it suddenly ... works!

How to decorate a class?

I'd agree inheritance is a better fit for the problem posed.

I found this question really handy though on decorating classes, thanks all.

Here's another couple of examples, based on other answers, including how inheritance affects things in Python 2.7, (and @wraps, which maintains the original function's docstring, etc.):

def dec(klass):
    old_foo = klass.foo
    @wraps(klass.foo)
    def decorated_foo(self, *args ,**kwargs):
        print('@decorator pre %s' % msg)
        old_foo(self, *args, **kwargs)
        print('@decorator post %s' % msg)
    klass.foo = decorated_foo
    return klass

@dec  # No parentheses
class Foo...

Often you want to add parameters to your decorator:

from functools import wraps

def dec(msg='default'):
    def decorator(klass):
        old_foo = klass.foo
        @wraps(klass.foo)
        def decorated_foo(self, *args ,**kwargs):
            print('@decorator pre %s' % msg)
            old_foo(self, *args, **kwargs)
            print('@decorator post %s' % msg)
        klass.foo = decorated_foo
        return klass
    return decorator

@dec('foo decorator')  # You must add parentheses now, even if they're empty
class Foo(object):
    def foo(self, *args, **kwargs):
        print('foo.foo()')

@dec('subfoo decorator')
class SubFoo(Foo):
    def foo(self, *args, **kwargs):
        print('subfoo.foo() pre')
        super(SubFoo, self).foo(*args, **kwargs)
        print('subfoo.foo() post')

@dec('subsubfoo decorator')
class SubSubFoo(SubFoo):
    def foo(self, *args, **kwargs):
        print('subsubfoo.foo() pre')
        super(SubSubFoo, self).foo(*args, **kwargs)
        print('subsubfoo.foo() post')

SubSubFoo().foo()

Outputs:

@decorator pre subsubfoo decorator
subsubfoo.foo() pre
@decorator pre subfoo decorator
subfoo.foo() pre
@decorator pre foo decorator
foo.foo()
@decorator post foo decorator
subfoo.foo() post
@decorator post subfoo decorator
subsubfoo.foo() post
@decorator post subsubfoo decorator

I've used a function decorator, as I find them more concise. Here's a class to decorate a class:

class Dec(object):

    def __init__(self, msg):
        self.msg = msg

    def __call__(self, klass):
        old_foo = klass.foo
        msg = self.msg
        def decorated_foo(self, *args, **kwargs):
            print('@decorator pre %s' % msg)
            old_foo(self, *args, **kwargs)
            print('@decorator post %s' % msg)
        klass.foo = decorated_foo
        return klass

A more robust version that checks for those parentheses, and works if the methods don't exist on the decorated class:

from inspect import isclass

def decorate_if(condition, decorator):
    return decorator if condition else lambda x: x

def dec(msg):
    # Only use if your decorator's first parameter is never a class
    assert not isclass(msg)

    def decorator(klass):
        old_foo = getattr(klass, 'foo', None)

        @decorate_if(old_foo, wraps(klass.foo))
        def decorated_foo(self, *args ,**kwargs):
            print('@decorator pre %s' % msg)
            if callable(old_foo):
                old_foo(self, *args, **kwargs)
            print('@decorator post %s' % msg)

        klass.foo = decorated_foo
        return klass

    return decorator

The assert checks that the decorator has not been used without parentheses. If it has, then the class being decorated is passed to the msg parameter of the decorator, which raises an AssertionError.

@decorate_if only applies the decorator if condition evaluates to True.

The getattr, callable test, and @decorate_if are used so that the decorator doesn't break if the foo() method doesn't exist on the class being decorated.

How do I loop through a list by twos?

If you have control over the structure of the list, the most pythonic thing to do would probably be to change it from:

l=[1,2,3,4]

to:

l=[(1,2),(3,4)]

Then, your loop would be:

for i,j in l:
    print i, j

What does "SyntaxError: Missing parentheses in call to 'print'" mean in Python?

If your code should work in both Python 2 and 3, you can achieve this by loading this at the beginning of your program:

from __future__ import print_function   # If code has to work in Python 2 and 3!

Then you can print in the Python 3 way:

print("python")

If you want to print something without creating a new line - you can do this:

for number in range(0, 10):
    print(number, end=', ')

How to use <sec:authorize access="hasRole('ROLES)"> for checking multiple Roles?

There is a special security expression in spring security:

hasAnyRole(list of roles) - true if the user has been granted any of the roles specified (given as a comma-separated list of strings).

I have never used it but I think it is exactly what you are looking for.

Example usage:

<security:authorize access="hasAnyRole('ADMIN', 'DEVELOPER')">
    ...
</security:authorize>

Here is a link to the reference documentation where the standard spring security expressions are described. Also, here is a discussion where I described how to create custom expression if you need it.

What is the Swift equivalent of isEqualToString in Objective-C?

Actually, it feels like swift is trying to promote strings to be treated less like objects and more like values. However this doesn't mean under the hood swift doesn't treat strings as objects, as am sure you all noticed that you can still invoke methods on strings and use their properties.

For example:-

//example of calling method (String to Int conversion)
let intValue = ("12".toInt())
println("This is a intValue now \(intValue)")


//example of using properties (fetching uppercase value of string)
let caUpperValue = "ca".uppercaseString
println("This is the uppercase of ca \(caUpperValue)")

In objectC you could pass the reference to a string object through a variable, on top of calling methods on it, which pretty much establishes the fact that strings are pure objects.

Here is the catch when you try to look at String as objects, in swift you cannot pass a string object by reference through a variable. Swift will always pass a brand new copy of the string. Hence, strings are more commonly known as value types in swift. In fact, two string literals will not be identical (===). They are treated as two different copies.

let curious = ("ca" === "ca")
println("This will be false.. and the answer is..\(curious)")

As you can see we are starting to break aways from the conventional way of thinking of strings as objects and treating them more like values. Hence .isEqualToString which was treated as an identity operator for string objects is no more a valid as you can never get two identical string objects in Swift. You can only compare its value, or in other words check for equality(==).

 let NotSoCuriousAnyMore = ("ca" == "ca")
 println("This will be true.. and the answer is..\(NotSoCuriousAnyMore)")

This gets more interesting when you look at the mutability of string objects in swift. But thats for another question, another day. Something you should probably look into, cause its really interesting. :) Hope that clears up some confusion. Cheers!

How can I determine the URL that a local Git repository was originally cloned from?

To supplement the other answers: If the remote has for some reason been changed and so doesn't reflect the original origin, the very first entry in the reflog (i.e. the last entry displayed by the command git reflog) should indicate where the repo was originally cloned from.

e.g.

$ git reflog | tail -n 1
f34be46 HEAD@{0}: clone: from https://github.com/git/git
$

(Bear in mind that the reflog may be purged, so this isn't guaranteed to work.)

WSDL vs REST Pros and Cons

To me we should be careful when we use the word web service. We should all the time specify if we are speaking of SOAP web service, REST web service or other kind of web services because we are speaking about different things here and people don't understand anymore if we named all of them web services.

Basically SOAP web services are very well established for years and they follow a strict specification that describe how to communicate with them based on the SOAP specification. Now REST web services are a bit newer and basically looks like simpler because they are not using any communication protocol. Basically what you send and receive when you use a REST web service is plain XML. People like it because they can parse the xml the way they want without having to deal with a more sophisticated communication protocol like SOAP.

To me REST services are almost like if you would create a servlet instead of a SOAP web service. The servlet get data in and return data out. The format of the data are xml based. We can also imagine to use something else than xml if we want. For instance tags could be used instead of xml and that would be not REST anymore but something else (Could be even lighter in term of weight because xml is not light by nature). Would we call that still a web service? Yes we could but that will not follow any current standard and this is the main issue here if we start to call everything web services but we can do it the way we want then we are loosing on the interoperability side of the things. That means that the format of the data that is exchanged with the web service is not standardized anymore. That requires then that server and client agree on the format of the data whereas with SOAP this is all predefined already and server and client can interoperate without to know each other because they follow the same standard.

What people don't like with SOAP is that they have hard time to understand it and they cannot generate the queries manually. Computers can do that very well however so this is where we need to be clear: are web services queries and response supposed to be used directly by the end users or do we agree that web services are underneath API called by computer systems based on some normalized standards?

Loading and parsing a JSON file with multiple JSON objects

You have a JSON Lines format text file. You need to parse your file line by line:

import json

data = []
with open('file') as f:
    for line in f:
        data.append(json.loads(line))

Each line contains valid JSON, but as a whole, it is not a valid JSON value as there is no top-level list or object definition.

Note that because the file contains JSON per line, you are saved the headaches of trying to parse it all in one go or to figure out a streaming JSON parser. You can now opt to process each line separately before moving on to the next, saving memory in the process. You probably don't want to append each result to one list and then process everything if your file is really big.

If you have a file containing individual JSON objects with delimiters in-between, use How do I use the 'json' module to read in one JSON object at a time? to parse out individual objects using a buffered method.

Reading HTML content from a UIWebView

Note that the NSString stringWithContentsOfURL will report a totally different user-agent string than the UIWebView making the same request. So if your server is user-agent aware, and sending back different html depending on who is asking for it, you may not get correct results this way.

Also note that the @"document.body.innerHTML" mentioned above will only display what is in the body tag. If you use @"document.all[0].innerHTML" you will get both head and body. Which is still not the complete contents of the UIWebView, since it will not get back the !doctype or html tags, but it is a lot closer.

how to get current location in google map android

FusedLocationApi has been Deprecated (Why Google always deprecated everything!)

location: retrieve-current

Here is the way to get it now:

    // ...

    fusedLocationClient = LocationServices.getFusedLocationProviderClient(this)
}

Possible to iterate backwards through a foreach?

As 280Z28 says, for an IList<T> you can just use the index. You could hide this in an extension method:

public static IEnumerable<T> FastReverse<T>(this IList<T> items)
{
    for (int i = items.Count-1; i >= 0; i--)
    {
        yield return items[i];
    }
}

This will be faster than Enumerable.Reverse() which buffers all the data first. (I don't believe Reverse has any optimisations applied in the way that Count() does.) Note that this buffering means that the data is read completely when you first start iterating, whereas FastReverse will "see" any changes made to the list while you iterate. (It will also break if you remove multiple items between iterations.)

For general sequences, there's no way of iterating in reverse - the sequence could be infinite, for example:

public static IEnumerable<T> GetStringsOfIncreasingSize()
{
    string ret = "";
    while (true)
    {
        yield return ret;
        ret = ret + "x";
    }
}

What would you expect to happen if you tried to iterate over that in reverse?

Using Mockito to stub and execute methods for testing

SHORT ANSWER

How to do in your case:

int argument = 5; // example with int but could be another type
Mockito.when(mockMyAgent.otherMethod(Mockito.anyInt()).thenReturn(requiredReturnArg(argument));

LONG ANSWER

Actually what you want to do is possible, at least in Java 8. Maybe you didn't get this answer by other people because I am using Java 8 that allows that and this question is before release of Java 8 (that allows to pass functions, not only values to other functions).

Let's simulate a call to a DataBase query. This query returns all the rows of HotelTable that have FreeRoms = X and StarNumber = Y. What I expect during testing, is that this query will give back a List of different hotel: every returned hotel has the same value X and Y, while the other values and I will decide them according to my needs. The following example is simple but of course you can make it more complex.

So I create a function that will give back different results but all of them have FreeRoms = X and StarNumber = Y.

static List<Hotel> simulateQueryOnHotels(int availableRoomNumber, int starNumber) {
    ArrayList<Hotel> HotelArrayList = new ArrayList<>();
    HotelArrayList.add(new Hotel(availableRoomNumber, starNumber, Rome, 1, 1));
    HotelArrayList.add(new Hotel(availableRoomNumber, starNumber, Krakow, 7, 15));
    HotelArrayList.add(new Hotel(availableRoomNumber, starNumber, Madrid, 1, 1));
    HotelArrayList.add(new Hotel(availableRoomNumber, starNumber, Athens, 4, 1));

    return HotelArrayList;
}

Maybe Spy is better (please try), but I did this on a mocked class. Here how I do (notice the anyInt() values):

//somewhere at the beginning of your file with tests...
@Mock
private DatabaseManager mockedDatabaseManager;

//in the same file, somewhere in a test...
int availableRoomNumber = 3;
int starNumber = 4;
// in this way, the mocked queryOnHotels will return a different result according to the passed parameters
when(mockedDatabaseManager.queryOnHotels(anyInt(), anyInt())).thenReturn(simulateQueryOnHotels(availableRoomNumber, starNumber));

How to use BeginInvoke C#

I guess your code relates to Windows Forms.
You call BeginInvoke if you need something to be executed asynchronously in the UI thread: change control's properties in most of the cases.
Roughly speaking this is accomplished be passing the delegate to some procedure which is being periodically executed. (message loop processing and the stuff like that)

If BeginInvoke is called for Delegate type the delegate is just invoked asynchronously.
(Invoke for the sync version.)

If you want more universal code which works perfectly for WPF and WinForms you can consider Task Parallel Library and running the Task with the according context. (TaskScheduler.FromCurrentSynchronizationContext())

And to add a little to already said by others: Lambdas can be treated either as anonymous methods or expressions.
And that is why you cannot just use var with lambdas: compiler needs a hint.

UPDATE:

this requires .Net v4.0 and higher

// This line must be called in UI thread to get correct scheduler
var scheduler = System.Threading.Tasks.TaskScheduler.FromCurrentSynchronizationContext();

// this can be called anywhere
var task = new System.Threading.Tasks.Task( () => someformobj.listBox1.SelectedIndex = 0);

// also can be called anywhere. Task  will be scheduled for execution.
// And *IF I'm not mistaken* can be (or even will be executed synchronously)
// if this call is made from GUI thread. (to be checked) 
task.Start(scheduler);

If you started the task from other thread and need to wait for its completition task.Wait() will block calling thread till the end of the task.

Batch File; List files in directory, only filenames?

The full command is:

dir /b /a-d

Let me break it up;

Basically the /b is what you look for.

/a-d will exclude the directory names.


For more information see dir /? for other arguments that you can use with the dir command.

Query to search all packages for table and/or column

you can use the views *_DEPENDENCIES, for example:

SELECT owner, NAME
  FROM dba_dependencies
 WHERE referenced_owner = :table_owner
   AND referenced_name = :table_name
   AND TYPE IN ('PACKAGE', 'PACKAGE BODY')

"Conversion to Dalvik format failed with error 1" on external JAR

I am using Android 1.6 and had one external JAR file. What worked for me was to remove all libraries, right-click project and select Android Tools -> *Fix Project Properties (which added back Android 1.6) and then add back the external JAR file.

Android, How to read QR code in my application?

if user doesn't have any qr reader, what will happen to the application? if it crashes, may i ask user to download for example QrDroid and after that use it?

Interestingly, Google now introduced Mobile Vision APIs, they are integrated in play services itself.

In your Gradle file just add:

compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-vision:11.4.0'

Taken from this QR code tutorial.

UPDATE 2020:

Now QR code scanning is also a part of ML Kit, so you can bundle the model inside the app and use it by integrating the following gradle dependency:

dependencies {
  // ...
  // Use this dependency to bundle the model with your app
  implementation 'com.google.mlkit:barcode-scanning:16.0.3'
}

Or you can use the following gradle dependency to dynamically download the models from Google Play Services:

dependencies {
  // ...
  // Use this dependency to use the dynamically downloaded model in Google Play Services
  implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-mlkit-barcode-scanning:16.1.2'
}

AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'urlretrieve'

As you're using Python 3, there is no urllib module anymore. It has been split into several modules.

This would be equivalent to urlretrieve:

import urllib.request
data = urllib.request.urlretrieve("http://...")

urlretrieve behaves exactly the same way as it did in Python 2.x, so it'll work just fine.

Basically:

  • urlretrieve saves the file to a temporary file and returns a tuple (filename, headers)
  • urlopen returns a Request object whose read method returns a bytestring containing the file contents

HTTP 401 - what's an appropriate WWW-Authenticate header value?

No, you'll have to specify the authentication method to use (typically "Basic") and the authentication realm. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basic_access_authentication for an example request and response.

You might also want to read RFC 2617 - HTTP Authentication: Basic and Digest Access Authentication.

POST an array from an HTML form without javascript

You can also post multiple inputs with the same name and have them save into an array by adding empty square brackets to the input name like this:

<input type="text" name="comment[]" value="comment1"/>
<input type="text" name="comment[]" value="comment2"/>
<input type="text" name="comment[]" value="comment3"/>
<input type="text" name="comment[]" value="comment4"/>

If you use php:

print_r($_POST['comment']) 

you will get this:

Array ( [0] => 'comment1' [1] => 'comment2' [2] => 'comment3' [3] => 'comment4' )

How to have Java method return generic list of any type?

Another option is doing the following:

public class UserList extends List<User>{

}

public <T> T magicalListGetter(Class<T> clazz) {
    List<?> list = doMagicalVooDooHere();
    return (T)list;
}

List<User> users = magicalListGetter(UserList.class);

Picasso v/s Imageloader v/s Fresco vs Glide

These answers are totally my opinion

Answers

  1. Picasso is an easy to use image loader, same goes for Imageloader. Fresco uses a different approach to image loading, i haven't used it yet but it looks too me more like a solution for getting image from network and caching them then showing the images. then the other way around like Picasso/Imageloader/Glide which to me are more Showing image on screen that also does getting images from network and caching them.

  2. Glide tries to be somewhat interchangeable with Picasso.I think when they were created Picasso's mind set was follow HTTP spec's and let the server decide the caching policies and cache full sized and resize on demand. Glide is the same with following the HTTP spec but tries to have a smaller memory footprint by making some different assumptions like cache the resized images instead of the fullsized images, and show images with RGB_565 instead of RGB_8888. Both libraries offer full customization of the default settings.

  3. As to which library is the best to use is really hard to say. Picasso, Glide and Imageloader are well respected and well tested libraries which all are easy to use with the default settings. Both Picasso and Glide require only 1 line of code to load an image and have a placeholder and error image. Customizing the behaviour also doesn't require that much work. Same goes for Imageloader which is also an older library then Picasso and Glide, however I haven't used it so can't say much about performance/memory usage/customizations but looking at the readme on github gives me the impression that it is also relatively easy to use and setup. So in choosing any of these 3 libraries you can't make the wrong decision, its more a matter of personal taste. For fresco my opinion is that its another facebook library so we have to see how that is going to work out for them, so far there track record isn't that good. Like the facebook SDK is still isn't officially released on mavenCentral I have not used to facebook sdk since sept 2014 and it seems they have put the first version online on mavenCentral in oct 2014. So it will take some time before we can get any good opinion about it.

  4. between the 3 big name libraries I think there are no significant differences. The only one that stand out is fresco but that is because it has a different approach and is new and not battle tested.

Replace first occurrence of pattern in a string

public string ReplaceFirst(string text, string search, string replace)
{
  int pos = text.IndexOf(search);
  if (pos < 0)
  {
    return text;
  }
  return text.Substring(0, pos) + replace + text.Substring(pos + search.Length);
}

here is an Extension Method that could also work as well per VoidKing request

public static class StringExtensionMethods
{
    public static string ReplaceFirst(this string text, string search, string replace)
    {
      int pos = text.IndexOf(search);
      if (pos < 0)
      {
        return text;
      }
      return text.Substring(0, pos) + replace + text.Substring(pos + search.Length);
    }
}

SQL Server IF NOT EXISTS Usage?

Have you verified that there is in fact a row where Staff_Id = @PersonID? What you've posted works fine in a test script, assuming the row exists. If you comment out the insert statement, then the error is raised.

set nocount on

create table Timesheet_Hours (Staff_Id int, BookedHours int, Posted_Flag bit)

insert into Timesheet_Hours (Staff_Id, BookedHours, Posted_Flag) values (1, 5.5, 0)

declare @PersonID int
set @PersonID = 1

IF EXISTS    
    (
    SELECT 1    
    FROM Timesheet_Hours    
    WHERE Posted_Flag = 1    
        AND Staff_Id = @PersonID    
    )    
    BEGIN
        RAISERROR('Timesheets have already been posted!', 16, 1)
        ROLLBACK TRAN
    END
ELSE
    IF NOT EXISTS
        (
        SELECT 1
        FROM Timesheet_Hours
        WHERE Staff_Id = @PersonID
        )
        BEGIN
            RAISERROR('Default list has not been loaded!', 16, 1)
            ROLLBACK TRAN
        END
    ELSE
        print 'No problems here'

drop table Timesheet_Hours

Remove accents/diacritics in a string in JavaScript

If you're also interesting in converting Greek characters to Latin, I've included the Greek alhpabet along with some digraphs; it can also be used for a form of combined orthographic and phonetic Greeklish.

Also, this version accepts optional options with:

  • override Object {replace:string -> search:regex, ...}
    It overrides the default replacements
  • ignore Array<string | regex> | string
    Ignores the list items which can be strings or regular expressions

Java2D: Increase the line width

You should use setStroke to set a stroke of the Graphics2D object.

The example at http://www.java2s.com gives you some code examples.

The following code produces the image below:

import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.geom.Line2D;
import javax.swing.*;

public class FrameTest {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        JFrame jf = new JFrame("Demo");
        Container cp = jf.getContentPane();
        cp.add(new JComponent() {
            public void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
                Graphics2D g2 = (Graphics2D) g;
                g2.setStroke(new BasicStroke(10));
                g2.draw(new Line2D.Float(30, 20, 80, 90));
            }
        });
        jf.setSize(300, 200);
        jf.setVisible(true);
    }
}

enter image description here

(Note that the setStroke method is not available in the Graphics object. You have to cast it to a Graphics2D object.)

what is the difference between OLE DB and ODBC data sources?

At Microsoft website, it shows that native OLEDB provider is applied to SQL server directly and another OLEDB provider called OLEDB Provider for ODBC to access other Database, such as Sysbase, DB2 etc. There are different kinds of component under OLEDB Provider. See Distributed Queries on MSDN for more.

How to sort a file in-place

You can use file redirection to redirected the sorted output:

sort input-file > output_file

Or you can use the -o, --output=FILE option of sort to indicate the same input and output file:

sort -o file file

Without repeating the filename (with bash brace expansion)

sort -o file{,}

?? Note: A common mistake is to try to redirect the output to the same input file (e.g. sort file > file). This does not work as the shell is making the redirections (not the sort(1) program) and the input file (as being the output also) will be erased just before giving the sort(1) program the opportunity of reading it.

Clear listview content?

Simply write

listView.setAdapter(null);

Unable to merge dex

In my project I have more then two modules and sdks, I try all suggestion or answer listed above like

  • add multiDexEnabled true in defaultConfig
  • Clean and Rebuild project
  • replacing compile with implementing
  • update all dependencies

All these work temporarily but when I open project structure(cntrl + altr + shift+ s) i found, In my Project Property nothing will selected like- - compile SDK version, build sdk version - In flavors same

I update all these and perform clean and rebuild project and it works for me.

Jackson - best way writes a java list to a json array

In objectMapper we have writeValueAsString() which accepts object as parameter. We can pass object list as parameter get the string back.

List<Apartment> aptList =  new ArrayList<Apartment>();
    Apartment aptmt = null;
    for(int i=0;i<5;i++){
         aptmt= new Apartment();
         aptmt.setAptName("Apartment Name : ArrowHead Ranch");
         aptmt.setAptNum("3153"+i);
         aptmt.setPhase((i+1));
         aptmt.setFloorLevel(i+2);
         aptList.add(aptmt);
    }
mapper.writeValueAsString(aptList)

Mongoose's find method with $or condition does not work properly

According to mongoDB documentation: "...That is, for MongoDB to use indexes to evaluate an $or expression, all the clauses in the $or expression must be supported by indexes."

So add indexes for your other fields and it will work. I had a similar problem and this solved it.

How do I add a placeholder on a CharField in Django?

Look at the widgets documentation. Basically it would look like:

q = forms.CharField(label='search', 
                    widget=forms.TextInput(attrs={'placeholder': 'Search'}))

More writing, yes, but the separation allows for better abstraction of more complicated cases.

You can also declare a widgets attribute containing a <field name> => <widget instance> mapping directly on the Meta of your ModelForm sub-class.

one line if statement in php

You can use Ternary operator logic Ternary operator logic is the process of using "(condition)? (true return value) : (false return value)" statements to shorten your if/else structures. i.e

/* most basic usage */
$var = 5;
$var_is_greater_than_two = ($var > 2 ? true : false); // returns true

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.mysql.jdbc.Driver in Eclipse

It is because the WEB-INF folder does not exist at the location in the sub directory in the error. You either compile the application to use the WEB-INF folder under public_html OR copy the WEB-INF folder in sub folder as in the error above.

excel - if cell is not blank, then do IF statement

You need to use AND statement in your formula

=IF(AND(IF(NOT(ISBLANK(Q2));TRUE;FALSE);Q2<=R2);"1";"0")

And if both conditions are met, return 1.

You could also add more conditions in your AND statement.

Pass row number as variable in excel sheet

Assuming your row number is in B1, you can use INDIRECT:

=INDIRECT("A" & B1)

This takes a cell reference as a string (in this case, the concatenation of A and the value of B1 - 5), and returns the value at that cell.

Why do 64-bit DLLs go to System32 and 32-bit DLLs to SysWoW64 on 64-bit Windows?

System32 is where Windows historically placed all 32bit DLLs, and System was for the 16bit DLLs. When microsoft created the 64 bit OS, everyone I know of expected the files to reside under System64, but Microsoft decided it made more sense to put 64bit files under System32. The only reasoning I have been able to find, is that they wanted everything that was 32bit to work in a 64bit Windows w/o having to change anything in the programs -- just recompile, and it's done. The way they solved this, so that 32bit applications could still run, was to create a 32bit windows subsystem called Windows32 On Windows64. As such, the acronym SysWOW64 was created for the System directory of the 32bit subsystem. The Sys is short for System, and WOW64 is short for Windows32OnWindows64.
Since windows 16 is already segregated from Windows 32, there was no need for a Windows 16 On Windows 64 equivalence. Within the 32bit subsystem, when a program goes to use files from the system32 directory, they actually get the files from the SysWOW64 directory. But the process is flawed.

It's a horrible design. And in my experience, I had to do a lot more changes for writing 64bit applications, that simply changing the System32 directory to read System64 would have been a very small change, and one that pre-compiler directives are intended to handle.

Download/Stream file from URL - asp.net

The accepted solution from Dallas was working for us if we use Load Balancer on the Citrix Netscaler (without WAF policy).

The download of the file doesn't work through the LB of the Netscaler when it is associated with WAF as the current scenario (Content-length not being correct) is a RFC violation and AppFW resets the connection, which doesn't happen when WAF policy is not associated.

So what was missing was:

Response.End();

What exactly should be set in PYTHONPATH?

For most installations, you should not set these variables since they are not needed for Python to run. Python knows where to find its standard library.

The only reason to set PYTHONPATH is to maintain directories of custom Python libraries that you do not want to install in the global default location (i.e., the site-packages directory).

Make sure to read: http://docs.python.org/using/cmdline.html#environment-variables

More than one file was found with OS independent path 'META-INF/LICENSE'

I updated Studio from Java 7 to Java 8, and this problem occurred. Then I solved it this way:

android {
    defaultConfig {

    buildTypes {
    }
    packagingOptions{
        exclude 'META-INF/rxjava.properties'
    }
}

Close/kill the session when the browser or tab is closed

It is not possible to kill the session variable, when the machine unexpectly shutdown due to power failure. It is only possible when the user is idle for a long time or it is properly logout.

How to execute Ant build in command line

Try running all targets individually to check that all are running correct

run ant target name to run a target individually

e.g. ant build-project

Also the default target you specified is

project basedir="." default="build" name="iControlSilk4J"

This will only execute build-subprojects,build-project and init

AssertContains on strings in jUnit

If you add in Hamcrest and JUnit4, you could do:

String x = "foo bar";
Assert.assertThat(x, CoreMatchers.containsString("foo"));

With some static imports, it looks a lot better:

assertThat(x, containsString("foo"));

The static imports needed would be:

import static org.hamcrest.MatcherAssert.assertThat;
import static org.hamcrest.CoreMatchers.containsString;

ERROR: Sonar server 'http://localhost:9000' can not be reached

When you allow the 9000 port to firewall on your desired operating System the following error "ERROR: Sonar server 'http://localhost:9000' can not be reached" will remove successfully.In ubuntu it is just like as by typing the following command in terminal "sudo ufw allow 9000/tcp" this error will removed from the Jenkins server by clicking on build now in jenkins.

Javascript : Send JSON Object with Ajax?

I struggled for a couple of days to find anything that would work for me as was passing multiple arrays of ids and returning a blob. Turns out if using .NET CORE I'm using 2.1, you need to use [FromBody] and as can only use once you need to create a viewmodel to hold the data.

Wrap up content like below,

var params = {
            "IDs": IDs,
            "ID2s": IDs2,
            "id": 1
        };

In my case I had already json'd the arrays and passed the result to the function

var IDs = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(Model.Select(s => s.ID).ToArray());

Then call the XMLHttpRequest POST and stringify the object

var ajax = new XMLHttpRequest();
ajax.open("POST", '@Url.Action("MyAction", "MyController")', true);
ajax.responseType = "blob";
ajax.setRequestHeader("Content-Type", "application/json;charset=UTF-8");           
ajax.onreadystatechange = function () {
    if (this.readyState == 4) {
       var blob = new Blob([this.response], { type: "application/octet-stream" });
       saveAs(blob, "filename.zip");
    }
};

ajax.send(JSON.stringify(params));

Then have a model like this

public class MyModel
{
    public int[] IDs { get; set; }
    public int[] ID2s { get; set; }
    public int id { get; set; }
}

Then pass in Action like

public async Task<IActionResult> MyAction([FromBody] MyModel model)

How can I check if a string is null or empty in PowerShell?

In addition to [string]::IsNullOrEmpty in order to check for null or empty you can cast a string to a Boolean explicitly or in Boolean expressions:

$string = $null
[bool]$string
if (!$string) { "string is null or empty" }

$string = ''
[bool]$string
if (!$string) { "string is null or empty" }

$string = 'something'
[bool]$string
if ($string) { "string is not null or empty" }

Output:

False
string is null or empty

False
string is null or empty

True
string is not null or empty

Explain ExtJS 4 event handling

One more trick for controller event listeners.

You can use wildcards to watch for an event from any component:

this.control({
   '*':{ 
       myCustomEvent: this.doSomething
   }
});

psql - save results of command to a file

The psql \o command was already described by jhwist.

An alternative approach is using the COPY TO command to write directly to a file on the server. This has the advantage that it's dumped in an easy-to-parse format of your choice -- rather than psql's tabulated format. It's also very easy to import to another table/database using COPY FROM.

NB! This requires superuser privileges and will write to a file on the server.

Example: COPY (SELECT foo, bar FROM baz) TO '/tmp/query.csv' (format csv, delimiter ';')

Creates a CSV file with ';' as the field separator.

As always, see the documentation for details

Like Operator in Entity Framework?

For EfCore here is a sample to build LIKE expression

protected override Expression<Func<YourEntiry, bool>> BuildLikeExpression(string searchText)
    {
        var likeSearch = $"%{searchText}%";

        return t => EF.Functions.Like(t.Code, likeSearch)
                    || EF.Functions.Like(t.FirstName, likeSearch)
                    || EF.Functions.Like(t.LastName, likeSearch);
    }

//Calling method

var query = dbContext.Set<YourEntity>().Where(BuildLikeExpression("Text"));

Returning boolean if set is empty

not as pythonic as the other answers, but mathematics:

return len(c) == 0

As some comments wondered about the impact len(set) could have on complexity. It is O(1) as shown in the source code given it relies on a variable that tracks the usage of the set.

static Py_ssize_t
set_len(PyObject *so)
{

How to style SVG <g> element?

You actually cannot draw Container Elements

But you can use a "foreignObject" with a "SVG" inside it to simulate what you need.

http://jsfiddle.net/VBmbP/4/

<svg width="640" height="480" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
      <foreignObject id="G" width="300" height="200">
        <svg>
          <rect fill="blue" stroke-width="2" height="112" width="84" y="55" x="55" stroke-linecap="null" stroke-linejoin="null" stroke-dasharray="null" stroke="#000000"/>
          <ellipse fill="#FF0000" stroke="#000000" stroke-width="5" stroke-dasharray="null" stroke-linejoin="null" stroke-linecap="null" cx="155" cy="65" id="svg_7" rx="64" ry="56"/>     
        </svg>
          <style>
              #G {
                background: #cff; border: 1px dashed black;
              }
              #G:hover {
                background: #acc; border: 1px solid black;
              }
          </style>
      </foreignObject>

Truncate a SQLite table if it exists?

**It is Simple, just follow 2 steps. Step #1. Fire query "Delete from tableName", It will delete all records from table.

Step #2. There is table named "sqlite_sequence" in Sqlite Database, just browse it and you can set sequence table wise to "0" so it will start from auto id "1".** See the screenshot attached.

Import numpy on pycharm

I added Anaconda3/Library/Bin to the environment path and PyCharm no longer complained with the error.

Swift do-try-catch syntax

I was also disappointed by the lack of type a function can throw, but I get it now thanks to @rickster and I'll summarize it like this: let's say we could specify the type a function throws, we would have something like this:

enum MyError: ErrorType { case ErrorA, ErrorB }

func myFunctionThatThrows() throws MyError { ...throw .ErrorA...throw .ErrorB... }

do {
    try myFunctionThatThrows()
}
case .ErrorA { ... }
case .ErrorB { ... }

The problem is that even if we don't change anything in myFunctionThatThrows, if we just add an error case to MyError:

enum MyError: ErrorType { case ErrorA, ErrorB, ErrorC }

we are screwed because our do/try/catch is no longer exhaustive, as well as any other place where we called functions that throw MyError

python pandas: apply a function with arguments to a series

You can pass any number of arguments to the function that apply is calling through either unnamed arguments, passed as a tuple to the args parameter, or through other keyword arguments internally captured as a dictionary by the kwds parameter.

For instance, let's build a function that returns True for values between 3 and 6, and False otherwise.

s = pd.Series(np.random.randint(0,10, 10))
s

0    5
1    3
2    1
3    1
4    6
5    0
6    3
7    4
8    9
9    6
dtype: int64

s.apply(lambda x: x >= 3 and x <= 6)

0     True
1     True
2    False
3    False
4     True
5    False
6     True
7     True
8    False
9     True
dtype: bool

This anonymous function isn't very flexible. Let's create a normal function with two arguments to control the min and max values we want in our Series.

def between(x, low, high):
    return x >= low and x =< high

We can replicate the output of the first function by passing unnamed arguments to args:

s.apply(between, args=(3,6))

Or we can use the named arguments

s.apply(between, low=3, high=6)

Or even a combination of both

s.apply(between, args=(3,), high=6)

How to emulate a BEFORE INSERT trigger in T-SQL / SQL Server for super/subtype (Inheritance) entities?

While Andriy's proposal will work well for INSERTs of a small number of records, full table scans will be done on the final join as both 'enumerated' and '@new_super' are not indexed, resulting in poor performance for large inserts.

This can be resolved by specifying a primary key on the @new_super table, as follows:

DECLARE @new_super TABLE (
  row_num INT IDENTITY(1,1) PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED,
  super_id   int
);

This will result in the SQL optimizer scanning through the 'enumerated' table but doing an indexed join on @new_super to get the new key.

jQuery detect if string contains something

You get the value of the textarea, use it :

$('.type').keyup(function() {
    var v = $('.type').val(); // you'd better use this.value here
    if (v.indexOf('> <')!=-1) {
       console.log('contains > <');        
    }
});

How to echo print statements while executing a sql script

I don't know if this helps:

suppose you want to run a sql script (test.sql) from the command line:

mysql < test.sql

and the contents of test.sql is something like:

SELECT * FROM information_schema.SCHEMATA;
\! echo "I like to party...";

The console will show something like:

CATALOG_NAME    SCHEMA_NAME            DEFAULT_CHARACTER_SET_NAME      
         def    information_schema     utf8
         def    mysql                  utf8
         def    performance_schema     utf8
         def    sys                    utf8
I like to party...

So you can execute terminal commands inside an sql statement by just using \!, provided the script is run via a command line.

\! #terminal_commands

Image comparison - fast algorithm

I believe that dropping the size of the image down to an almost icon size, say 48x48, then converting to greyscale, then taking the difference between pixels, or Delta, should work well. Because we're comparing the change in pixel color, rather than the actual pixel color, it won't matter if the image is slightly lighter or darker. Large changes will matter since pixels getting too light/dark will be lost. You can apply this across one row, or as many as you like to increase the accuracy. At most you'd have 47x47=2,209 subtractions to make in order to form a comparable Key.

C# Linq Group By on multiple columns

        School = gcs.Key.School,
        Friend = gcs.Key.Friend,

Read properties file outside JAR file

So, you want to treat your .properties file on the same folder as the main/runnable jar as a file rather than as a resource of the main/runnable jar. In that case, my own solution is as follows:

First thing first: your program file architecture shall be like this (assuming your main program is main.jar and its main properties file is main.properties):

./ - the root of your program
 |__ main.jar
 |__ main.properties

With this architecture, you can modify any property in the main.properties file using any text editor before or while your main.jar is running (depending on the current state of the program) since it is just a text-based file. For example, your main.properties file may contain:

app.version=1.0.0.0
app.name=Hello

So, when you run your main program from its root/base folder, normally you will run it like this:

java -jar ./main.jar

or, straight away:

java -jar main.jar

In your main.jar, you need to create a few utility methods for every property found in your main.properties file; let say the app.version property will have getAppVersion() method as follows:

/**
 * Gets the app.version property value from
 * the ./main.properties file of the base folder
 *
 * @return app.version string
 * @throws IOException
 */

import java.util.Properties;

public static String getAppVersion() throws IOException{

    String versionString = null;

    //to load application's properties, we use this class
    Properties mainProperties = new Properties();

    FileInputStream file;

    //the base folder is ./, the root of the main.properties file  
    String path = "./main.properties";

    //load the file handle for main.properties
    file = new FileInputStream(path);

    //load all the properties from this file
    mainProperties.load(file);

    //we have loaded the properties, so close the file handle
    file.close();

    //retrieve the property we are intrested, the app.version
    versionString = mainProperties.getProperty("app.version");

    return versionString;
}

In any part of the main program that needs the app.version value, we call its method as follows:

String version = null;
try{
     version = getAppVersion();
}
catch (IOException ioe){
    ioe.printStackTrace();
}

When should I use Kruskal as opposed to Prim (and vice versa)?

Prim's is better for more dense graphs, and in this we also do not have to pay much attention to cycles by adding an edge, as we are primarily dealing with nodes. Prim's is faster than Kruskal's in the case of complex graphs.

SQL Server: Get table primary key using sql query

Using SQL SERVER 2005, you can try

        OBJECT_NAME(ic.OBJECT_ID) AS TableName,
        COL_NAME(ic.OBJECT_ID,ic.column_id) AS ColumnName
FROM    sys.indexes AS i INNER JOIN 
        sys.index_columns AS ic ON  i.OBJECT_ID = ic.OBJECT_ID
                                AND i.index_id = ic.index_id
WHERE   i.is_primary_key = 1

How to loop over files in directory and change path and add suffix to filename

Looks like you're trying to execute a windows file (.exe) Surely you ought to be using powershell. Anyway on a Linux bash shell a simple one-liner will suffice.

[/home/$] for filename in /Data/*.txt; do for i in {0..3}; do ./MyProgam.exe  Data/filenameLogs/$filename_log$i.txt; done done

Or in a bash

#!/bin/bash

for filename in /Data/*.txt; 
   do
     for i in {0..3}; 
       do ./MyProgam.exe Data/filename.txt Logs/$filename_log$i.txt; 
     done 
 done

How can I view all historical changes to a file in SVN

You could use git-svn to import the repository into a Git repository, then use git log -p filename. This shows each log entry for the file followed by the corresponding diff.

Why GDB jumps unpredictably between lines and prints variables as "<value optimized out>"?

The compiler will start doing very clever things with optimisations turned on. The debugger will show the code jumping forward and backwards alot due to the optimized way variables are stored in registers. This is probably the reason why you can't set your variable (or in some cases see its value) as it has been cleverly distributed between registers for speed, rather than having a direct memory location that the debugger can access.

Compile without optimisations?

How to make a HTML Page in A4 paper size page(s)?

I saw this solution after searching at google, search for "A4 CSS page template" (codepen.io). It shows an A4 (A3,A5, also portrait) sized area in the browser, using the <page> tag. Inside this tag the content is shown, but absolute position is still with respect to browser area.

How to prevent page scrolling when scrolling a DIV element?

Here is my solution I've used in applications.

I disabled the body overflow and placed the entire website html inside container div's. The website containers have overflow and therefore the user may scroll the page as expected.

I then created a sibling div (#Prevent) with a higher z-index that covers the entire website. Since #Prevent has a higher z-index, it overlaps the website container. When #Prevent is visible the mouse is no longer hovering the website containers, so scrolling isn't possible.

You may of course place another div, such as your modal, with a higher z-index than #Prevent in the markup. This allows you to create pop-up windows that don't suffer from scrolling issues.

This solution is better because it doesn't hide the scrollbars (jumping affect). It doesn't require event listeners and it's easy to implement. It works in all browsers, although with IE7 & 8 you have to play around (depends on your specific code).

html

<body>
  <div id="YourModal" style="display:none;"></div>
  <div id="Prevent" style="display:none;"></div>
  <div id="WebsiteContainer">
     <div id="Website">
     website goes here...
     </div>
  </div>
</body>

css

body { overflow: hidden; }

#YourModal {
 z-index:200;
 /* modal styles here */
}

#Prevent {
 z-index:100;
 position:absolute;
 left:0px;
 height:100%;
 width:100%;
 background:transparent;
}

#WebsiteContainer {
  z-index:50;
  overflow:auto;
  position: absolute;
  height:100%;
  width:100%;
}
#Website {
  position:relative;
}

jquery/js

function PreventScroll(A) { 
  switch (A) {
    case 'on': $('#Prevent').show(); break;
    case 'off': $('#Prevent').hide(); break;
  }
}

disable/enable the scroll

PreventScroll('on'); // prevent scrolling
PreventScroll('off'); // allow scrolling

Maximum length for MD5 input/output

The algorithm has been designed to support arbitrary input length. I.e you can compute hashes of big files like ISO of a DVD...

If there is a limitation for the input it could come from the environment where the hash function is used. Let's say you want to compute a file and the environment has a MAX_FILE limit.

But the output string will be always the same: 32 hex chars (128 bits)!

fetch gives an empty response body

This requires changes to the frontend JS and the headers sent from the backend.

Frontend

Remove "mode":"no-cors" in the fetch options.

fetch(
  "http://example.com/api/docs", 
  {
    // mode: "no-cors",
    method: "GET"
  }
)
  .then(response => response.text())
  .then(data => console.log(data))

Backend

When your server responds to the request, include the CORS headers specifying the origin from where the request is coming. If you don't care about the origin, specify the * wildcard.

The raw response should include a header like this.

Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *

Mockito : doAnswer Vs thenReturn

You should use thenReturn or doReturn when you know the return value at the time you mock a method call. This defined value is returned when you invoke the mocked method.

thenReturn(T value) Sets a return value to be returned when the method is called.

@Test
public void test_return() throws Exception {
    Dummy dummy = mock(Dummy.class);
    int returnValue = 5;

    // choose your preferred way
    when(dummy.stringLength("dummy")).thenReturn(returnValue);
    doReturn(returnValue).when(dummy).stringLength("dummy");
}

Answer is used when you need to do additional actions when a mocked method is invoked, e.g. when you need to compute the return value based on the parameters of this method call.

Use doAnswer() when you want to stub a void method with generic Answer.

Answer specifies an action that is executed and a return value that is returned when you interact with the mock.

@Test
public void test_answer() throws Exception {
    Dummy dummy = mock(Dummy.class);
    Answer<Integer> answer = new Answer<Integer>() {
        public Integer answer(InvocationOnMock invocation) throws Throwable {
            String string = invocation.getArgumentAt(0, String.class);
            return string.length() * 2;
        }
    };

    // choose your preferred way
    when(dummy.stringLength("dummy")).thenAnswer(answer);
    doAnswer(answer).when(dummy).stringLength("dummy");
}

Enter key press in C#

private void Input_KeyDown(object sender, KeyEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.Key == Key.Return)
        {
            MessageBox.Show("Enter pressed");
        }
    }

This worked for me.

Resolving MSB3247 - Found conflicts between different versions of the same dependent assembly

Collections.sort with multiple fields

A lot of answers above have fields compared in single comparator method which is not actually working. There are some answers though with different comparators implemented for each field, I am posting this because this example would be much more clearer and simple to understand I am believing.

class Student{
    Integer bornYear;
    Integer bornMonth;
    Integer bornDay;
    public Student(int bornYear, int bornMonth, int bornDay) {

        this.bornYear = bornYear;
        this.bornMonth = bornMonth;
        this.bornDay = bornDay;
    }
    public Student(int bornYear, int bornMonth) {

        this.bornYear = bornYear;
        this.bornMonth = bornMonth;

    }

Phonegap Cordova installation Windows

Phonegap can be a little tricky for freshers. I spent much time trying to find the optimum way for creating a robust android application which can access the phone's native features.

Try-catch speeding up my code?

Well, the way you're timing things looks pretty nasty to me. It would be much more sensible to just time the whole loop:

var stopwatch = Stopwatch.StartNew();
for (int i = 1; i < 100000000; i++)
{
    Fibo(100);
}
stopwatch.Stop();
Console.WriteLine("Elapsed time: {0}", stopwatch.Elapsed);

That way you're not at the mercy of tiny timings, floating point arithmetic and accumulated error.

Having made that change, see whether the "non-catch" version is still slower than the "catch" version.

EDIT: Okay, I've tried it myself - and I'm seeing the same result. Very odd. I wondered whether the try/catch was disabling some bad inlining, but using [MethodImpl(MethodImplOptions.NoInlining)] instead didn't help...

Basically you'll need to look at the optimized JITted code under cordbg, I suspect...

EDIT: A few more bits of information:

  • Putting the try/catch around just the n++; line still improves performance, but not by as much as putting it around the whole block
  • If you catch a specific exception (ArgumentException in my tests) it's still fast
  • If you print the exception in the catch block it's still fast
  • If you rethrow the exception in the catch block it's slow again
  • If you use a finally block instead of a catch block it's slow again
  • If you use a finally block as well as a catch block, it's fast

Weird...

EDIT: Okay, we have disassembly...

This is using the C# 2 compiler and .NET 2 (32-bit) CLR, disassembling with mdbg (as I don't have cordbg on my machine). I still see the same performance effects, even under the debugger. The fast version uses a try block around everything between the variable declarations and the return statement, with just a catch{} handler. Obviously the slow version is the same except without the try/catch. The calling code (i.e. Main) is the same in both cases, and has the same assembly representation (so it's not an inlining issue).

EDIT: Okay, I've now looked through the code and I think I can see how each version works... and I believe the slower version is slower because it uses fewer registers and more stack space. For small values of n that's possibly faster - but when the loop takes up the bulk of the time, it's slower.

Possibly the try/catch block forces more registers to be saved and restored, so the JIT uses those for the loop as well... which happens to improve the performance overall. It's not clear whether it's a reasonable decision for the JIT to not use as many registers in the "normal" code.

EDIT: Just tried this on my x64 machine. The x64 CLR is much faster (about 3-4 times faster) than the x86 CLR on this code, and under x64 the try/catch block doesn't make a noticeable difference.

mysql stored-procedure: out parameter

I know this is an old thread, but if anyone is looking for an answer of why their procedures doesn't work in the workbench and think the only result is "Query canceled" or anything like that without clues:

the output with errors or problems is hiddenl. I do not know why, I do understand it's annoying, but it is there. just move your cursor above the line above the message, it will turn in an double arrow (up and down) you can then click and drag that line up, then you will see a console with the message you missed!

How do I fix the npm UNMET PEER DEPENDENCY warning?

The given answer wont always work. If it does not fix your issue. Make sure that you are also using the correct symbol in your package.json. This is very important to fix that headache. For example:

warning " > @angular/[email protected]" has incorrect peer dependency "typescript@>=2.4.2 <2.7".
warning " > [email protected]" has incorrect peer dependency "typescript@>=2.4.2 <2.6".

So my typescript needs to be between 2.4.2 and 2.6 right?

So I changed my typescript library from using "typescript": "^2.7" to using "typescript": "^2.5". Seems correct?

Wrong.

The ^ means that you are okay with npm using "typescript": "2.5" or "2.6" or "2.7" etc...

If you want to learn what the ^ and ~ it mean see: What's the difference between tilde(~) and caret(^) in package.json?

Also you have to make sure that the package exists. Maybe there is no "typescript": "2.5.9" look up the package numbers. To be really safe just remove the ~ or the ^ if you dont want to read what they mean.

Where to place and how to read configuration resource files in servlet based application?

Word of warning: if you put config files in your WEB-INF/classes folder, and your IDE, say Eclipse, does a clean/rebuild, it will nuke your conf files unless they were in the Java source directory. BalusC's great answer alludes to that in option 1 but I wanted to add emphasis.

I learned the hard way that if you "copy" a web project in Eclipse, it does a clean/rebuild from any source folders. In my case I had added a "linked source dir" from our POJO java library, it would compile to the WEB-INF/classes folder. Doing a clean/rebuild in that project (not the web app project) caused the same problem.

I thought about putting my confs in the POJO src folder, but these confs are all for 3rd party libs (like Quartz or URLRewrite) that are in the WEB-INF/lib folder, so that didn't make sense. I plan to test putting it in the web projects "src" folder when i get around to it, but that folder is currently empty and having conf files in it seems inelegant.

So I vote for putting conf files in WEB-INF/commonConfFolder/filename.properties, next to the classes folder, which is Balus option 2.

How does one target IE7 and IE8 with valid CSS?

Well you don't really have to worry about IE7 code not working in IE8 because IE8 has compatibility mode (it can render pages the same as IE7). But if you still want to target different versions of IE, a way that's been done for a while now is to either use conditional comments or begin your css rule with a * to target IE7 and below. Or you could pay attention to user agent on the servers and dish up a different CSS file based on that information.

How to use vertical align in bootstrap

http://jsfiddle.net/b9chris/zN39r/

HTML:

<div class="item row">
    <div class="col-xs-12 col-sm-6"><h4>This is some text.</h4></div>
    <div class="col-xs-12 col-sm-6"><h4>This is some more.</h4></div>
</div>

CSS:

div.item div h4 {
    height: 60px;
    vertical-align: middle;    
    display: table-cell;
}

Important notes:

  • The vertical-align: middle; display: table-cell; must be applied to a tag that has no Bootstrap classes applied; it cannot be a col-*, a row, etc.
  • This can't be done without this extra, possibly pointless tag in your HTML, unfortunately.
  • The backgrounds are unnecessary - they're just there for demo purposes. So, you don't need to apply any special rules to the row or col-* tags.
  • It is important to notice the inner tag does not stretch to 100% of the width of its parent; in our scenario this didn't matter but it may to you. If it does, you end up with something closer to some of the other answers here:

http://jsfiddle.net/b9chris/zN39r/1/

CSS:

div.item div {
    background: #fdd;
    table-layout: fixed;
    display: table;
}
div.item div h4 {
    height: 60px;
    vertical-align: middle;    
    display: table-cell;
    background: #eee;
}

Notice the added table-layout and display properties on the col-* tags. This must be applied to the tag(s) that have col-* applied; it won't help on other tags.

How to fix missing dependency warning when using useEffect React Hook?

You can set it directly as the useEffect callback:

useEffect(fetchBusinesses, [])

It will trigger only once, so make sure all the function's dependencies are correctly set (same as using componentDidMount/componentWillMount...)


Edit 02/21/2020

Just for completeness:

1. Use function as useEffect callback (as above)

useEffect(fetchBusinesses, [])

2. Declare function inside useEffect()

useEffect(() => {
  function fetchBusinesses() {
    ...
  }
  fetchBusinesses()
}, [])

3. Memoize with useCallback()

In this case, if you have dependencies in your function, you will have to include them in the useCallback dependencies array and this will trigger the useEffect again if the function's params change. Besides, it is a lot of boilerplate... So just pass the function directly to useEffect as in 1. useEffect(fetchBusinesses, []).

const fetchBusinesses = useCallback(() => {
  ...
}, [])
useEffect(() => {
  fetchBusinesses()
}, [fetchBusinesses])

4. Disable eslint's warning

useEffect(() => {
  fetchBusinesses()
}, []) // eslint-disable-line react-hooks/exhaustive-deps

When should I use git pull --rebase?

I would like to provide a different perspective on what "git pull --rebase" actually means, because it seems to get lost sometimes.

If you've ever used Subversion (or CVS), you may be used to the behavior of "svn update". If you have changes to commit and the commit fails because changes have been made upstream, you "svn update". Subversion proceeds by merging upstream changes with yours, potentially resulting in conflicts.

What Subversion just did, was essentially "pull --rebase". The act of re-formulating your local changes to be relative to the newer version is the "rebasing" part of it. If you had done "svn diff" prior to the failed commit attempt, and compare the resulting diff with the output of "svn diff" afterwards, the difference between the two diffs is what the rebasing operation did.

The major difference between Git and Subversion in this case is that in Subversion, "your" changes only exist as non-committed changes in your working copy, while in Git you have actual commits locally. In other words, in Git you have forked the history; your history and the upstream history has diverged, but you have a common ancestor.

In my opinion, in the normal case of having your local branch simply reflecting the upstream branch and doing continuous development on it, the right thing to do is always "--rebase", because that is what you are semantically actually doing. You and others are hacking away at the intended linear history of a branch. The fact that someone else happened to push slightly prior to your attempted push is irrelevant, and it seems counter-productive for each such accident of timing to result in merges in the history.

If you actually feel the need for something to be a branch for whatever reason, that is a different concern in my opinion. But unless you have a specific and active desire to represent your changes in the form of a merge, the default behavior should, in my opinion, be "git pull --rebase".

Please consider other people that need to observe and understand the history of your project. Do you want the history littered with hundreds of merges all over the place, or do you want only the select few merges that represent real merges of intentional divergent development efforts?

        if (entities.TryGetValue(code, out val))
            return val;

no pg_hba.conf entry for host

Your postgres server configuration seems correct

host    all         all         127.0.0.1/32          md5
host    all         all         192.168.0.1/32        trust
That should grant access from the client to the postgres server. So that leads me to believe the username / password is whats failing.

Test this by creating a specific user for that database

createuser -a -d -W -U postgres chaosuser

Then adjust your perl script to use the newly created user

// insert one row
$name = 'one';

$value = 2;

Centering a canvas

Looking at the current answers I feel that one easy and clean fix is missing. Just in case someone passes by and looks for the right solution. I am quite successful with some simple CSS and javascript.

Center canvas to middle of the screen or parent element. No wrapping.

HTML:

<canvas id="canvas" width="400" height="300">No canvas support</canvas>

CSS:

#canvas {
    position: absolute;
    top:0;
    bottom: 0;
    left: 0;
    right: 0;
    margin:auto;
}

Javascript:

window.onload = window.onresize = function() {
    var canvas = document.getElementById('canvas');
    canvas.width = window.innerWidth * 0.8;
    canvas.height = window.innerHeight * 0.8;
}

Works like a charm - tested: firefox, chrome

How to get current time in milliseconds in PHP?

Use microtime. This function returns a string separated by a space. The first part is the fractional part of seconds, the second part is the integral part. Pass in true to get as a number:

var_dump(microtime());       // string(21) "0.89115400 1283846202"
var_dump(microtime(true));   // float(1283846202.89)

Beware of precision loss if you use microtime(true).

There is also gettimeofday that returns the microseconds part as an integer.

var_dump(gettimeofday());
/*
array(4) {
  ["sec"]=>
  int(1283846202)
  ["usec"]=>
  int(891199)
  ["minuteswest"]=>
  int(-60)
  ["dsttime"]=>
  int(1)
}
*/

Keras input explanation: input_shape, units, batch_size, dim, etc

Input Dimension Clarified:

Not a direct answer, but I just realized the word Input Dimension could be confusing enough, so be wary:

It (the word dimension alone) can refer to:

a) The dimension of Input Data (or stream) such as # N of sensor axes to beam the time series signal, or RGB color channel (3): suggested word=> "InputStream Dimension"

b) The total number /length of Input Features (or Input layer) (28 x 28 = 784 for the MINST color image) or 3000 in the FFT transformed Spectrum Values, or

"Input Layer / Input Feature Dimension"

c) The dimensionality (# of dimension) of the input (typically 3D as expected in Keras LSTM) or (#RowofSamples, #of Senors, #of Values..) 3 is the answer.

"N Dimensionality of Input"

d) The SPECIFIC Input Shape (eg. (30,50,50,3) in this unwrapped input image data, or (30, 250, 3) if unwrapped Keras:

Keras has its input_dim refers to the Dimension of Input Layer / Number of Input Feature

model.add(Dense(32, input_dim=784))  #or 3 in the current posted example above
model.add(Activation('relu'))

In Keras LSTM, it refers to the total Time Steps

The term has been very confusing, is correct and we live in a very confusing world!!

I find one of the challenge in Machine Learning is to deal with different languages or dialects and terminologies (like if you have 5-8 highly different versions of English, then you need to very high proficiency to converse with different speakers). Probably this is the same in programming languages too.

Angular (4, 5, 6, 7) - Simple example of slide in out animation on ngIf

I answered a very similar question, and here is a way of doing this :

First, create a file where you would define your animations and export them. Just to make it more clear in your app.component.ts

In the following example, I used a max-height of the div that goes from 0px (when it's hidden), to 500px, but you would change that according to what you need.

This animation uses states (in and out), that will be toggle when we click on the button, which will run the animtion.

animations.ts

import { trigger, state, style, transition,
    animate, group, query, stagger, keyframes
} from '@angular/animations';

export const SlideInOutAnimation = [
    trigger('slideInOut', [
        state('in', style({
            'max-height': '500px', 'opacity': '1', 'visibility': 'visible'
        })),
        state('out', style({
            'max-height': '0px', 'opacity': '0', 'visibility': 'hidden'
        })),
        transition('in => out', [group([
            animate('400ms ease-in-out', style({
                'opacity': '0'
            })),
            animate('600ms ease-in-out', style({
                'max-height': '0px'
            })),
            animate('700ms ease-in-out', style({
                'visibility': 'hidden'
            }))
        ]
        )]),
        transition('out => in', [group([
            animate('1ms ease-in-out', style({
                'visibility': 'visible'
            })),
            animate('600ms ease-in-out', style({
                'max-height': '500px'
            })),
            animate('800ms ease-in-out', style({
                'opacity': '1'
            }))
        ]
        )])
    ]),
]

Then in your app.component, we import the animation and create the method that will toggle the animation state.

app.component.ts

import { SlideInOutAnimation } from './animations';

@Component({
  ...
  animations: [SlideInOutAnimation]
})
export class AppComponent  {
  animationState = 'in';

  ...

  toggleShowDiv(divName: string) {
    if (divName === 'divA') {
      console.log(this.animationState);
      this.animationState = this.animationState === 'out' ? 'in' : 'out';
      console.log(this.animationState);
    }
  }
}

And here is how your app.component.html would look like :

<div class="wrapper">
  <button (click)="toggleShowDiv('divA')">TOGGLE DIV</button>
  <div [@slideInOut]="animationState" style="height: 100px; background-color: red;">
  THIS DIV IS ANIMATED</div>
  <div class="content">THIS IS CONTENT DIV</div>
</div>

slideInOut refers to the animation trigger defined in animations.ts

Here is a StackBlitz example I have created : https://angular-muvaqu.stackblitz.io/

Side note : If an error ever occurs and asks you to add BrowserAnimationsModule, just import it in your app.module.ts:

import { BrowserAnimationsModule } from '@angular/platform-browser/animations';

How to make a flex item not fill the height of the flex container?

When you create a flex container various default flex rules come into play.

Two of these default rules are flex-direction: row and align-items: stretch. This means that flex items will automatically align in a single row, and each item will fill the height of the container.

If you don't want flex items to stretch – i.e., like you wrote:

make its height the minimum required for holding its content

... then simply override the default with align-items: flex-start.

_x000D_
_x000D_
#a {_x000D_
  display: flex;_x000D_
  align-items: flex-start; /* NEW */_x000D_
}_x000D_
#a > div {_x000D_
  background-color: red;_x000D_
  padding: 5px;_x000D_
  margin: 2px;_x000D_
}_x000D_
#b {_x000D_
  height: auto;_x000D_
}
_x000D_
<div id="a">_x000D_
  <div id="b">left</div>_x000D_
  <div>_x000D_
    right<br>right<br>right<br>right<br>right<br>_x000D_
  </div>_x000D_
</div>
_x000D_
_x000D_
_x000D_

Here's an illustration from the flexbox spec that highlights the five values for align-items and how they position flex items within the container. As mentioned before, stretch is the default value.

What causes "Unable to access jarfile" error?

I had this issue under CygWin in Windows. I have read elsewhere that Java does not understand the CygWin paths (/cygdrive/c/some/dir instead of C:\some\dir) - so I used a relative path instead: ../../some/dir/sbt-launch.jar.

How to set JAVA_HOME for multiple Tomcat instances?

Difference between window.location.href, window.location.replace and window.location.assign

The part about not being able to use the Back button is a common misinterpretation. window.location.replace(URL) throws out the top ONE entry from the page history list, by overwriting it with the new entry, so the user can't easily go Back to that ONE particular webpage. The function does NOT wipe out the entire page history list, nor does it make the Back button completely non-functional.

(NO function nor combination of parameters that I know of can change or overwrite history list entries that you don't own absolutely for certain - browsers generally impelement this security limitation by simply not even defining any operation that might at all affect any entry other than the top one in the page history list. I shudder to think what sorts of dastardly things malware might do if such a function existed.)

If you really want to make the Back button non-functional (probably not "user friendly": think again if that's really what you want to do), "open" a brand new window. (You can "open" a popup that doesn't even have a "Back" button too ...but popups aren't very popular these days:-) If you want to keep your page showing no matter what the user does (again the "user friendliness" is questionable), set up a window.onunload handler that just reloads your page all over again clear from the very beginning every time.

Hope, this works for you!!

How do I show multiple recaptchas on a single page?

The grecaptcha.getResponse() method accepts an optional "widget_id" parameter, and defaults to the first widget created if unspecified. A widget_id is returned from the grecaptcha.render() method for each widget created, it is not related to the attribute id of the reCAPTCHA container!!

Each reCAPTCHA has its own response data. You have to give the reCAPTCHA div an ID and pass it to the getResponse method:

e.g.

<div id="reCaptchaLogin"
     class="g-recaptcha required-entry"
     data-sitekey="<?php echo $this->helper('recaptcha')->getKey(); ?>"
     data-theme="<?php echo($this->helper('recaptcha')->getTheme()); ?>"
     style="transform:scale(0.82);-webkit-transform:scale(0.82);transform-origin:0 0;-webkit-transform-origin:0 0;">
</div>


<script type="text/javascript">
  var CaptchaCallback = function() {
    jQuery('.g-recaptcha').each(function(index, el) {
        grecaptcha.render(el, {
            'sitekey' : jQuery(el).attr('data-sitekey')
            ,'theme' : jQuery(el).attr('data-theme')
            ,'size' : jQuery(el).attr('data-size')
            ,'tabindex' : jQuery(el).attr('data-tabindex')
            ,'callback' : jQuery(el).attr('data-callback')
            ,'expired-callback' : jQuery(el).attr('data-expired-callback')
            ,'error-callback' : jQuery(el).attr('data-error-callback')
        });
    });
  };
</script>

<script src="https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api.js?onload=CaptchaCallback&render=explicit" async defer></script>

Access response:

var reCaptchaResponse = grecaptcha.getResponse(0);

or

var reCaptchaResponse = grecaptcha.getResponse(1);

Returning a file to View/Download in ASP.NET MVC

How do I get LaTeX to hyphenate a word that contains a dash?

The problem (as KennyTM noted) is that LaTeX won't hyphenate words with dashes in them. Luckily, there's a standard package (part of ncctools) that addresses that very problem, called extdash. This defines new hyphen and dash commands that do not disrupt hyphenation, and which can allow or prevent line breaks at the hyphen/dash. I prefer to use it with the shortcuts option, so I can use, e.g., \-/ rather than \Hyphdash. Here's what you want:

\usepackage[shortcuts]{extdash} ... multi\-/disciplinary

To prevent breaking at that hyphen, use multi\=/disciplinary

(Aside: The Chicago Manual of Style advises dropping the hyphens attaching affixes like 'multi', unless the word is ambiguous or unintelligible without it.)

Replace a value in a data frame based on a conditional (`if`) statement

Short answer is:

junk$nm[junk$nm %in% "B"] <- "b"

Take a look at Index vectors in R Introduction (if you don't read it yet).


EDIT. As noticed in comments this solution works for character vectors so fail on your data.

For factor best way is to change level:

levels(junk$nm)[levels(junk$nm)=="B"] <- "b"

Angular-cli from css to scss

A brute force change can be applied. This will work to change, but it's a longer process.

Go to the app folder src/app

  1. Open this file: app.component.ts

  2. Change this code styleUrls: ['./app.component.css'] to styleUrls: ['./app.component.scss']

  3. Save and close.

In the same folder src/app

  1. Rename the extension for the app.component.css file to (app.component.scss)

  2. Follow this change for all the other components. (ex. home, about, contact, etc...)

The angular.json configuration file is next. It's located at the project root.

  1. Search and Replace the css change it to (scss).

  2. Save and close.

Lastly, Restart your ng serve -o.

If the compiler complains at you, go over the steps again.

Make sure to follow the steps in app/src closely.

How to decode HTML entities using jQuery?

You can use the he library, available from https://github.com/mathiasbynens/he

Example:

console.log(he.decode("J&#246;rg &amp J&#xFC;rgen rocked to &amp; fro "));
// Logs "Jörg & Jürgen rocked to & fro"

I challenged the library's author on the question of whether there was any reason to use this library in clientside code in favour of the <textarea> hack provided in other answers here and elsewhere. He provided a few possible justifications:

  • If you're using node.js serverside, using a library for HTML encoding/decoding gives you a single solution that works both clientside and serverside.

  • Some browsers' entity decoding algorithms have bugs or are missing support for some named character references. For example, Internet Explorer will both decode and render non-breaking spaces (&nbsp;) correctly but report them as ordinary spaces instead of non-breaking ones via a DOM element's innerText property, breaking the <textarea> hack (albeit only in a minor way). Additionally, IE 8 and 9 simply don't support any of the new named character references added in HTML 5. The author of he also hosts a test of named character reference support at http://mathias.html5.org/tests/html/named-character-references/. In IE 8, it reports over one thousand errors.

    If you want to be insulated from browser bugs related to entity decoding and/or be able to handle the full range of named character references, you can't get away with the <textarea> hack; you'll need a library like he.

  • He just darn well feels like doing things this way is less hacky.

Convert HTML + CSS to PDF

I developed a public API to build PDF files from web pages. It has a nice PHP client class that makes it super easy to use. It uses wkhtmltopdf to render the PDF in the cloud.

No need for anything special in the HTML. No need for absolute URLS in images/css/js links. Works on localhost (dev machine) too.

Currently the service has endpoints in 4 Azure regions: US East, US West, EU North, Southeast Asia.

It's fast since it uses a proprietary protocol to send the web page contents to the API for conversion to PDF.

It's reliable because all endpoints are load balanced.

Free account available for testing or low usage. Details on the web site:

apache and httpd running but I can't see my website

There are several possibilities.

  • firewall, iptables configuration
  • apache listen address / port

More information is needed about your configuration. What distro are you using? Can you connect via 127.0.0.1?

If the issue is with the firewall/iptables, you can add the following lines to /etc/sysconfig/iptables:

-A INPUT -p tcp -m tcp --dport 80 -j ACCEPT
-A INPUT -p tcp -m tcp --dport 443 -j ACCEPT

(Second line is only needed for https)

Make sure this is above any lines that would globally restrict access, like the following:

-A INPUT -j REJECT --reject-with icmp-host-prohibited

Tested on CentOS 6.3

And finally

service iptables restart

How to implement zoom effect for image view in android?

You could check the answer in a related question. https://stackoverflow.com/a/16894324/1465756

Just import library https://github.com/jasonpolites/gesture-imageview.

into your project and add the following in your layout file:

<LinearLayout

   xmlns:gesture-image="http://schemas.polites.com/android"
   android:layout_width="fill_parent"
   android:layout_height="fill_parent">

   gesture-image:max-scale="10.0"
   gesture-image:strict="false"/>`

Apache and Node.js on the Same Server

I am assuming that you are making a web app because you refer to Apache and Node. Quick answer - Is it possible - YES. Is it recommended - NO. Node bundles it's own webserver and most websites run on port 80. I am also assuming that there is currently no Apache plugin which is supported by Nodejs and I am not sure if creating a virtual host is the best way to implement this. These are the questions that should be answered by developers who maintain Nodejs like the good folks at Joyent.

Instead of ports, it would be better to evaluate Node's tech stack which is completely different from most others and which is why I love it but it also involves a few compromises that you should be aware of in advance.

Your example looks similar to a CMS or a sharing web app and there are hundreds of out of the box apps available that will run just fine on Apache. Even if you do not like any readymade solution, you could write a webapp in PHP / Java / Python or mix n match it with a couple of ready made apps and they are all designed and supported to run behind a single instance of Apache.

It's time to pause and think about what I just said.

Now you are ready to decide on which techstack you are going to use. If your website will never use any out of the thousands of ready made apps that require Apache, then go for Node otherwise you must first eliminate the assumptions that I have stated earlier.

In the end, your choice of techstack is way more important than any individual component.

I completely agree with @Straseus that it is relatively trivial to use node.js file system api for handling uploads and downloads but think more about what you want from your website in the long run and then choose your techstack.

Learning Node's framework is easier than learning other frameworks but it is not a panacea. With a slightly more effort (which may be a worthwhile endeavor in itself), you can learn any other framework too. We all learn from each other and you will be more productive if you are working as a small team than if you are working alone and your backend technical skills will also develop faster. Therefore, do not discount the skills of other members of your team so cheaply.

This post is about a year old and chances are that you have already decided but I hope that my rant will help the next person who is going through a similar decision.

Thanks for reading.

How to declare global variables in Android?

I couldn't find how to specify the application tag either, but after a lot of Googling, it became obvious from the manifest file docs: use android:name, in addition to the default icon and label in the application stanza.

android:name The fully qualified name of an Application subclass implemented for the application. When the application process is started, this class is instantiated before any of the application's components.

The subclass is optional; most applications won't need one. In the absence of a subclass, Android uses an instance of the base Application class.

Curl not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file

Steps to install curl in windows

Install cURL on Windows

There are 4 steps to follow to get cURL installed on Windows.

Step 1 and Step 2 is to install SSL library. Step 3 is to install cURL. Step 4 is to install a recent certificate

Step One: Install Visual C++ 2008 Redistributables

From https://www.microsoft.com/en-za/download/details.aspx?id=29 For 64bit systems Visual C++ 2008 Redistributables (x64) For 32bit systems Visual C++ 2008 Redistributables (x32)

Step Two: Install Win(32/64) OpenSSL v1.0.0k Light

From http://www.shininglightpro.com/products/Win32OpenSSL.html For 64bit systems Win64 OpenSSL v1.0.0k Light For 32bit systems Win32 OpenSSL v1.0.0k Light

Step Three: Install cURL

Depending on if your system is 32 or 64 bit, download the corresponding** curl.exe.** For example, go to the Win64 - Generic section and download the Win64 binary with SSL support (the one where SSL is not crossed out). Visit http://curl.haxx.se/download.html

Copy curl.exe to C:\Windows\System32

Step Four: Install Recent Certificates

Do not skip this step. Download a recent copy of valid CERT files from https://curl.haxx.se/ca/cacert.pem Copy it to the same folder as you placed curl.exe (C:\Windows\System32) and rename it as curl-ca-bundle.crt

If you have already installed curl or after doing the above steps, add the directory where it's installed to the windows path:

1 - From the Desktop, right-click My Computer and click Properties.
2 - Click Advanced System Settings .
3 - In the System Properties window click the Environment Variables button.
4 - Select Path and click Edit.
5 - Append ;c:\path to curl directory at the end.
5 - Click OK.
6 - Close and re-open the command prompt

Pyspark: display a spark data frame in a table format

Let's say we have the following Spark DataFrame:

df = sqlContext.createDataFrame(
    [
        (1, "Mark", "Brown"), 
        (2, "Tom", "Anderson"), 
        (3, "Joshua", "Peterson")
    ], 
    ('id', 'firstName', 'lastName')
)

There are typically three different ways you can use to print the content of the dataframe:

Print Spark DataFrame

The most common way is to use show() function:

>>> df.show()
+---+---------+--------+
| id|firstName|lastName|
+---+---------+--------+
|  1|     Mark|   Brown|
|  2|      Tom|Anderson|
|  3|   Joshua|Peterson|
+---+---------+--------+

Print Spark DataFrame vertically

Say that you have a fairly large number of columns and your dataframe doesn't fit in the screen. You can print the rows vertically - For example, the following command will print the top two rows, vertically, without any truncation.

>>> df.show(n=2, truncate=False, vertical=True)
-RECORD 0-------------
 id        | 1        
 firstName | Mark     
 lastName  | Brown    
-RECORD 1-------------
 id        | 2        
 firstName | Tom      
 lastName  | Anderson 
only showing top 2 rows

Convert to Pandas and print Pandas DataFrame

Alternatively, you can convert your Spark DataFrame into a Pandas DataFrame using .toPandas() and finally print() it.

>>> df_pd = df.toPandas()
>>> print(df_pd)
   id firstName  lastName
0   1      Mark     Brown
1   2       Tom  Anderson
2   3    Joshua  Peterson

Note that this is not recommended when you have to deal with fairly large dataframes, as Pandas needs to load all the data into memory. If this is the case, the following configuration will help when converting a large spark dataframe to a pandas one:

spark.conf.set("spark.sql.execution.arrow.pyspark.enabled", "true")

For more details you can refer to my blog post Speeding up the conversion between PySpark and Pandas DataFrames

Maximum size for a SQL Server Query? IN clause? Is there a Better Approach

Per batch, 65536 * Network Packet Size which is 4k so 256 MB

However, IN will stop way before that but it's not precise.

You end up with memory errors but I can't recall the exact error. A huge IN will be inefficient anyway.

Edit: Remus reminded me: the error is about "stack size"
