How to force Docker for a clean build of an image

There's a --no-cache option:

docker build --no-cache -t u12_core -f u12_core .

In older versions of Docker you needed to pass --no-cache=true, but this is no longer the case.

How to know a Pod's own IP address from inside a container in the Pod?

The simplest answer is to ensure that your pod or replication controller yaml/json files add the pod IP as an environment variable by adding the config block defined below. (the block below additionally makes the name and namespace available to the pod)

env:
- name: MY_POD_NAME
  valueFrom:
    fieldRef:
      fieldPath: metadata.name
- name: MY_POD_NAMESPACE
  valueFrom:
    fieldRef:
      fieldPath: metadata.namespace
- name: MY_POD_IP
  valueFrom:
    fieldRef:
      fieldPath: status.podIP

Recreate the pod/rc and then try

echo $MY_POD_IP

also run env to see what else kubernetes provides you with.

How to fix symbol lookup error: undefined symbol errors in a cluster environment

After two dozens of comments to understand the situation, it was found that the libhdf5.so.7 was actually a symlink (with several levels of indirection) to a file that was not shared between the queued processes and the interactive processes. This means even though the symlink itself lies on a shared filesystem, the contents of the file do not and as a result the process was seeing different versions of the library.

For future reference: other than checking LD_LIBRARY_PATH, it's always a good idea to check a library with nm -D to see if the symbols actually exist. In this case it was found that they do exist in interactive mode but not when run in the queue. A quick md5sum revealed that the files were actually different.

How to read xml file contents in jQuery and display in html elements?

responseText is what you are looking for. Example:

    $.ajax({
...
complete: function(xhr, status) {
alert(xhr.responseText);
}
});

Where xml is your file. Remember this will be your xml in the form form of a string. You can parse it using xmlparse as some of them mentioned.

How to use cURL to get jSON data and decode the data?

You can use this:

curl_setopt_array($ch, $options);
$resultado = curl_exec($ch);
$info = curl_getinfo($ch);
print_r($info["url"]);

Background blur with CSS

Use an empty element sized for the content as the background, and position the content over the blurred element.

#dialog_base{
  background:white;
  background:rgba(255,255,255,0.8);

  position: absolute;
  top: 40%;
  left: 50%;
  z-index: 50;
  margin-left: -200px;
  height: 200px;
  width: 400px;

  filter:blur(4px);
  -o-filter:blur(4px);
  -ms-filter:blur(4px);
  -moz-filter:blur(4px);
  -webkit-filter:blur(4px);
}

#dialog_content{
  background: transparent;
  position: absolute;
  top: 40%;
  left: 50%;
  margin-left -200px;
  overflow: hidden;
  z-index: 51;
}

The background element can be inside of the content element, but not the other way around.

<div id='dialog_base'></div>
<div id='dialog_content'>
    Some Content
    <!-- Alternatively with z-index: <div id='dialog_base'></div> -->
</div>

This is not easy if the content is not always consistently sized, but it works.

Adding image inside table cell in HTML

There are some syntax errors on your HTML.

First, the URL of the image needs to point to an address on the public Internet. The users viewing your page won't have your hard drive, so pointing to a file on your local hard drive cannot work. Replace C:\Pics with the actual URL of the image, not a path on development machine filesystem. If you want to be absolutely sure, use a different computer and paste the img tag src attribute value to the address bar of the browser. If it works there, then you're good. Do not that the path can be relative and still valid, but then it needs to be relative to the public URL of the web page it's embedded in.

Second, the <title> tag. You need to add this tag if you need a title on the browser, and you can't format it.

The third error, if about the <th> tag, you have to add this header inside a <tr> tag, because <th> needs a row (create by <tr>).

Another thing is, you don't need all colspan you did.

I tried to do a valid html as you need. Take a look:

How can I style the border and title bar of a window in WPF?

If someone says you can't because only Windows can control the non-client area, they're wrong!

That's just a half-truth because Windows lets you specify the dimensions of the non-client area. The fact is, this is possible only throughout the Windows' kernel methods, and you're in .NET, not C/C++. Anyway, don't worry! P/Invoke was meant just for such things! Indeed, the whole of the Windows Form UI and Console application Std-I/O methods are offered using system calls. Hence, you'd have only to perform the right system calls to set the non-client area up, as documented in MSDN.

However, this is a really hard solution I came up with a lot of time ago. Luckily, as of .NET 4.5, you can use the WindowChrome class to adjust the non-client area like you want. Here you can get to start with.

In order to make things simpler and cleaner, I'll redirect you here, a guide to change the window border dimensions to whatever you want. By setting it to 0, you'll be able to implement your custom window border in place of the system's one.

I'm sorry for not posting a clear example, but later I will for sure.

Validating email addresses using jQuery and regex

Lolz this is much better

    function isValidEmailAddress(emailAddress) {
        var pattern = new RegExp(/^([\w-\.]+@([\w-]+\.)+[\w-]{2,4})?$/);
        return pattern.test(emailAddress);
    };

Detect URLs in text with JavaScript

Based on Crescent Fresh answer

if you want to detect links with http:// OR without http:// and by www. you can use the following

function urlify(text) {
    var urlRegex = /(((https?:\/\/)|(www\.))[^\s]+)/g;
    //var urlRegex = /(https?:\/\/[^\s]+)/g;
    return text.replace(urlRegex, function(url,b,c) {
        var url2 = (c == 'www.') ?  'http://' +url : url;
        return '<a href="' +url2+ '" target="_blank">' + url + '</a>';
    }) 
}

Change private static final field using Java reflection

If your field is simply private you can do this:

Field aField= myClass.getClass().getDeclaredField("someField");
aField.setAccessible(true);
aField.set(myClass, "newValueForAString");

and throw/handle NoSuchFieldException

Explanation of 'String args[]' and static in 'public static void main(String[] args)'

public static void main(string [] args)

public -its the access specifier means from every where we can access it; static -access modifier means we can call this method directly using a class name without creating an object of it; void- its the return type; main- method name string [] args - it accepts only string type of argument... and stores it in a string array

Creating and Update Laravel Eloquent

Updated: Aug 27 2014 - [`updateOrCreate` Built into core...]

Just in case people are still coming across this... I found out a few weeks after writing this, that this is in fact part of Laravel's Eloquent's core...

Digging into Eloquent’s equivalent method(s). You can see here:

https://github.com/laravel/framework/blob/4.2/src/Illuminate/Database/Eloquent/Model.php#L553

on :570 and :553

    /**
     * Create or update a record matching the attributes, and fill it with values.
     *
     * @param  array  $attributes
     * @param  array  $values
     * @return static
     */
    public static function updateOrCreate(array $attributes, array $values = array())
    {
        $instance = static::firstOrNew($attributes);

        $instance->fill($values)->save();

        return $instance;
    }

Old Answer Below

I am wondering if there is any built in L4 functionality for doing this in some way such as:

$row = DB::table('table')->where('id', '=', $id)->first();
// Fancy field => data assignments here
$row->save();

I did create this method a few weeks back...

// Within a Model extends Eloquent
public static function createOrUpdate($formatted_array) {
    $row = Model::find($formatted_array['id']);
    if ($row === null) {
        Model::create($formatted_array);
        Session::flash('footer_message', "CREATED");
    } else {
        $row->update($formatted_array);
        Session::flash('footer_message', "EXISITING");
    }
    $affected_row = Model::find($formatted_array['id']);
    return $affected_row;
}

I Hope that helps. I would love to see an alternative to this if anyone has one to share. @erikthedev_

What does `unsigned` in MySQL mean and when to use it?

MySQL says:

All integer types can have an optional (nonstandard) attribute UNSIGNED. Unsigned type can be used to permit only nonnegative numbers in a column or when you need a larger upper numeric range for the column. For example, if an INT column is UNSIGNED, the size of the column's range is the same but its endpoints shift from -2147483648 and 2147483647 up to 0 and 4294967295.

When do I use it ?

Ask yourself this question: Will this field ever contain a negative value?
If the answer is no, then you want an UNSIGNED data type.

A common mistake is to use a primary key that is an auto-increment INT starting at zero, yet the type is SIGNED, in that case you’ll never touch any of the negative numbers and you are reducing the range of possible id's to half.

How to pass a function as a parameter in Java?

Java does not (yet) support closures. But there are other languages like Scala and Groovy which run in the JVM and do support closures.

Call Class Method From Another Class

In Python function are first class citezens, so you can just assign it to a property like any other value. Here we are assigning the method of A's hello to a property on B. After __init__, hello will be attached to B as self.hello, which is actually a reference to A's hello:

class A:
    def hello(self, msg):
        print(f"Hello {msg}")
    
class B:
    hello = A.hello

print(A.hello)
print(B.hello)

b = B()
b.hello("good looking!")

Prints:

<function A.hello at 0x7fcce55b9e50>
<function A.hello at 0x7fcce55b9e50>
Hello good looking!

Decimal or numeric values in regular expression validation

I had the same problem, but I also wanted ".25" to be a valid decimal number. Here is my solution using JavaScript:

function isNumber(v) {
  // [0-9]* Zero or more digits between 0 and 9  (This allows .25 to be considered valid.)
  // ()? Matches 0 or 1 things in the parentheses.  (Allows for an optional decimal point)
  // Decimal point escaped with \.
  // If a decimal point does exist, it must be followed by 1 or more digits [0-9]
  // \d and [0-9] are equivalent 
  // ^ and $ anchor the endpoints so tthe whole string must match.
  return v.trim().length > 0 && v.trim().match(/^[0-9]*(\.[0-9]+)?$/);
}

Where my trim() method is

String.prototype.trim = function() {
  return this.replace(/(^\s*|\s*$)/g, "");
};

SQL Query - Using Order By in UNION

Browsing this comment section I came accross two different patterns answering the question. Sadly for SQL 2012, the second pattern doesn't work, so here's my "work around"

Order By on a Common Column

This is the easiest case you can encounter. Like many user pointed out, all you really need to do is add an Order By at the end of the query

SELECT a FROM table1
UNION
SELECT a FROM table2
ORDER BY field1

SELECT a FROM table1 ORDER BY field1
UNION
SELECT a FROM table2 ORDER BY field1

Order By on Different Columns

Here's where it actually gets tricky. Using SQL 2012, I tried the top post and it doesn't work.

SELECT * FROM 
(
  SELECT table1.field1 FROM table1 ORDER BY table1.field1
) DUMMY_ALIAS1

UNION ALL

SELECT * FROM
( 
  SELECT table2.field1 FROM table2 ORDER BY table2.field1
) DUMMY_ALIAS2

Following the recommandation in the comment I tried this

SELECT * FROM 
(
  SELECT TOP 100 PERCENT table1.field1 FROM table1 ORDER BY table1.field1
) DUMMY_ALIAS1

UNION ALL

SELECT * FROM
( 
  SELECT TOP 100 PERCENT table2.field1 FROM table2 ORDER BY table2.field1
) DUMMY_ALIAS2

This code did compile but the DUMMY_ALIAS1 and DUMMY_ALIAS2 override the Order By established in the Select statement which makes this unusable.

The only solution that I could think of, that worked for me was not using a union and instead making the queries run individually and then dealing with them. So basically, not using a Union when you want to Order By

How to get build time stamp from Jenkins build variables?

Concatenate in jQuery Selector

Your concatenation syntax is correct.

Most likely the callback function isn't even being called. You can test that by putting an alert(), console.log() or debugger line in that function.

If it isn't being called, most likely there's an AJAX error. Look at chaining a .fail() handler after $.post() to find out what the error is, e.g.:

$.post('ajaxskeleton.php', {
    red: text       
}, function(){
    $('#part' + number).html(text);
}).fail(function(jqXHR, textStatus, errorThrown) {
    console.log(arguments);
});

Does not contain a definition for and no extension method accepting a first argument of type could be found

placeBets(betList, stakeAmt) is an instance method not a static method. You need to create an instance of CBetfairAPI first:

MyBetfair api = new MyBetfair();
ArrayList bets = api.placeBets(betList, stakeAmt);

TypeLoadException says 'no implementation', but it is implemented

Another possibility is a mixture of release and debug builds in the dependencies. For example, Assembly A depends on Assembly B, A was built in Debug mode while the copy of B in GAC was built in Release mode, or vice versa.

Exit/save edit to sudoers file? Putty SSH

Be careful to type exactly :wq as Wouter Verleur said at step 7. After type enter, you will save the changes and exit the visudo editor to bash.

Efficient way of having a function only execute once in a loop

I'm not sure that I understood your problem, but I think you can divide loop. On the part of the function and the part without it and save the two loops.

How do I tokenize a string in C++?

Another quick way is to use getline. Something like:

stringstream ss("bla bla");
string s;

while (getline(ss, s, ' ')) {
 cout << s << endl;
}

If you want, you can make a simple split() method returning a vector<string>, which is really useful.

React Router v4 - How to get current route?

In react router 4 the current route is in - this.props.location.pathname. Just get this.props and verify. If you still do not see location.pathname then you should use the decorator withRouter.

This might look something like this:

import {withRouter} from 'react-router-dom';

const SomeComponent = withRouter(props => <MyComponent {...props}/>);

class MyComponent extends React.Component {
  SomeMethod () {
    const {pathname} = this.props.location;
  }
}

Generic type conversion FROM string

lubos hasko's method fails for nullables. The method below will work for nullables. I didn't come up with it, though. I found it via Google: http://web.archive.org/web/20101214042641/http://dogaoztuzun.com/post/C-Generic-Type-Conversion.aspx Credit to "Tuna Toksoz"

Usage first:

TConverter.ChangeType<T>(StringValue);

The class is below.

public static class TConverter
{
    public static T ChangeType<T>(object value)
    {
        return (T)ChangeType(typeof(T), value);
    }

    public static object ChangeType(Type t, object value)
    {
        TypeConverter tc = TypeDescriptor.GetConverter(t);
        return tc.ConvertFrom(value);
    }

    public static void RegisterTypeConverter<T, TC>() where TC : TypeConverter
    {

        TypeDescriptor.AddAttributes(typeof(T), new TypeConverterAttribute(typeof(TC)));
    }
}

jQuery: How to capture the TAB keypress within a Textbox

Edit: Since your element is dynamically inserted, you have to use delegated on() as in your example, but you should bind it to the keydown event, because as @Marc comments, in IE the keypress event doesn't capture non-character keys:

$("#parentOfTextbox").on('keydown', '#textbox', function(e) { 
  var keyCode = e.keyCode || e.which; 

  if (keyCode == 9) { 
    e.preventDefault(); 
    // call custom function here
  } 
});

Check an example here.

Running multiple async tasks and waiting for them all to complete

Both answers didn't mention the awaitable Task.WhenAll:

var task1 = DoWorkAsync();
var task2 = DoMoreWorkAsync();

await Task.WhenAll(task1, task2);

The main difference between Task.WaitAll and Task.WhenAll is that the former will block (similar to using Wait on a single task) while the latter will not and can be awaited, yielding control back to the caller until all tasks finish.

More so, exception handling differs:

Task.WaitAll:

At least one of the Task instances was canceled -or- an exception was thrown during the execution of at least one of the Task instances. If a task was canceled, the AggregateException contains an OperationCanceledException in its InnerExceptions collection.

Task.WhenAll:

If any of the supplied tasks completes in a faulted state, the returned task will also complete in a Faulted state, where its exceptions will contain the aggregation of the set of unwrapped exceptions from each of the supplied tasks.

If none of the supplied tasks faulted but at least one of them was canceled, the returned task will end in the Canceled state.

If none of the tasks faulted and none of the tasks were canceled, the resulting task will end in the RanToCompletion state. If the supplied array/enumerable contains no tasks, the returned task will immediately transition to a RanToCompletion state before it's returned to the caller.

Is it possible to select the last n items with nth-child?

nth-last-child sounds like it was specifically designed to solve this problem, so I doubt whether there is a more compatible alternative. Support looks pretty decent, though.

How to pass a parameter like title, summary and image in a Facebook sharer URL

I've used the below before, and it has worked. It isn't very pretty, but you can alter it to suit your needs.

The following JavaScript function grabs the location.href & document.title for the sharer, and you can ultimately change these.

function fbs_click() {
        u=location.href;
        t=document.title;
window.open('http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u='+encodeURIComponent(u)+'&t='+encodeURIComponent(t),
                'sharer',
                'toolbar=0,status=0,width=626,height=436');

            return false;
        }

Usage:

<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.facebook.com/share.php?u=<;url>" onclick="return fbs_click()" target="_blank">
    Share on Facebook
</a>

It looks like this is what you could possibly be looking for: Facebook sharer title / desc....

Printing leading 0's in C

If you are on a *nix machine:

man 3 printf

This will show a manual page, similar to:

0 The value should be zero padded. For d, i, o, u, x, X, a, A, e, E, f, F, g, and G conversions, the converted value is padded on the left with zeros rather than blanks. If the 0 and - flags both appear, the 0 flag is ignored. If a precision is given with a numeric conversion (d, i, o, u, x, and X), the 0 flag is ignored. For other conversions, the behavior is undefined.

Even though the question is for C, this page may be of aid.

How do I delete from multiple tables using INNER JOIN in SQL server

This is an alternative way of deleting records without leaving orphans.


Declare @user Table(keyValue int  , someString varchar(10))
insert into @user
values(1,'1 value')

insert into @user
values(2,'2 value')

insert into @user
values(3,'3 value')

Declare @password Table(  keyValue int , details varchar(10))
insert into @password
values(1,'1 Password')
insert into @password
values(2,'2 Password')
insert into @password
values(3,'3 Password')

        --before deletion
  select * from @password a inner join @user b
                on a.keyvalue = b.keyvalue
  select * into #deletedID from @user where keyvalue=1 -- this works like the output example
  delete  @user where keyvalue =1
  delete @password where keyvalue in (select keyvalue from #deletedid)

  --After deletion--
  select * from @password a inner join @user b
                on a.keyvalue = b.keyvalue

Getter and Setter declaration in .NET

Well, the first and second both generate something like the third in the end. However, don't use the third when you have a syntax for properties.

Finally, if you have no work to do in the get or set, then use the first.

In the end, the first and second are just some form of syntactic sugar, but why code more than what's necessary.

// more code == more bugs

And just to have a little fun, consider this:

public string A { get; private set; }

Now that's a lot more straight forward isn't it? The public modifier is implied on both the get and the set, but it can be overriden. This would of course be the same rule for any modifier used when defining the property itself.

Connect to network drive with user name and password

The best way to do this is to p/invoke WNetUseConnection.

[StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential)] 
private class NETRESOURCE
{ 
        public int dwScope = 0;
        public int dwType = 0;
        public int dwDisplayType = 0;
        public int dwUsage = 0;
        public string lpLocalName = "";
        public string lpRemoteName = "";
        public string lpComment = "";
        public string lpProvider = "";
}


[DllImport("Mpr.dll")] 
private static extern int WNetUseConnection(
            IntPtr hwndOwner,
            NETRESOURCE lpNetResource,
            string lpPassword,
            string lpUserID,
            int dwFlags,
            string lpAccessName,
            string lpBufferSize,
            string lpResult
        );

FragmentActivity to Fragment

first of all;

a Fragment must be inside a FragmentActivity, that's the first rule,

a FragmentActivity is quite similar to a standart Activity that you already know, besides having some Fragment oriented methods

second thing about Fragments, is that there is one important method you MUST call, wich is onCreateView, where you inflate your layout, think of it as the setContentLayout

here is an example:

    @Override public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {     mView       = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_layout, container, false);       return mView; }

and continu your work based on that mView, so to find a View by id, call mView.findViewById(..);

for the FragmentActivity part:

the xml part "must" have a FrameLayout in order to inflate a fragment in it

        <FrameLayout             android:id="@+id/content_frame"             android:layout_width="match_parent"             android:layout_height="match_parent"  >         </FrameLayout>

as for the inflation part

getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction().replace(R.id.content_frame, new YOUR_FRAGMENT, "TAG").commit();

begin with these, as there is tons of other stuf you must know about fragments and fragment activities, start of by reading something about it (like life cycle) at the android developer site

pow (x,y) in Java

^ is the bitwise exclusive OR (XOR) operator in Java (and many other languages). It is not used for exponentiation. For that, you must use Math.pow.

Error when checking Java version: could not find java.dll

Reinstall JDK and set system variable JAVA_HOME on your JDK. (e.g. C:\tools\jdk7)
And add JAVA_HOME variable to your PATH system variable

Type in command line

echo %JAVA_HOME%

and

java -version

To verify whether your installation was done successfully.

This problem generally occurs in Windows when your "Java Runtime Environment" registry entry is missing or mismatched with the installed JDK. The mismatch can be due to multiple JDKs.

Steps to resolve:

Open the Run window:

Press windows+R
Open registry window:

Type regedit and enter.
Go to: \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\JavaSoft\
If Java Runtime Environment is not present inside JavaSoft, then create a new Key and give the name Java Runtime Environment.
For Java Runtime Environment create "CurrentVersion" String Key and give appropriate version as value:

JRE regedit entry

Create a new subkey of 1.8.
For 1.8 create a String Key with name JavaHome with the value of JRE home:

Transparent color of Bootstrap-3 Navbar

you can use this for your css , mainly use css3 rgba as your background in order to control the opacity and use a background fallback for older browser , either using a solid color or a transparent .png image.

.navbar {
   background:rgba(0,0,0,0.5);   /* for latest browsers */
   background: #000;  /* fallback for older browsers */
}

Join String list elements with a delimiter in one step

You can use the StringUtils.join() method of Apache Commons Lang:

String join = StringUtils.join(joinList, "+");

When to use static keyword before global variables?

static before a global variable means that this variable is not accessible from outside the compilation module where it is defined.

E.g. imagine that you want to access a variable in another module:

foo.c

int var; // a global variable that can be accessed from another module
// static int var; means that var is local to the module only.
...

bar.c

extern int var; // use the variable in foo.c
...

Now if you declare var to be static you can't access it from anywhere but the module where foo.c is compiled into.

Note, that a module is the current source file, plus all included files. i.e. you have to compile those files separately, then link them together.

How to stop BackgroundWorker correctly

MY example . DoWork is below:

    DoLengthyWork();

    //this is never executed
    if(bgWorker.CancellationPending)
    {
        MessageBox.Show("Up to here? ...");
        e.Cancel = true;
    }

inside DoLenghtyWork :

public void DoLenghtyWork()
{
    OtherStuff();
    for(int i=0 ; i<10000000; i++) 
    {  int j = i/3; }
}

inside OtherStuff() :

public void OtherStuff()
{
    for(int i=0 ; i<10000000; i++) 
    {  int j = i/3; }
}

What you want to do is modify both DoLenghtyWork and OtherStuff() so that they become:

public void DoLenghtyWork()
{
    if(!bgWorker.CancellationPending)
    {              
        OtherStuff();
        for(int i=0 ; i<10000000; i++) 
        {  
             int j = i/3; 
        }
    }
}

public void OtherStuff()
{
    if(!bgWorker.CancellationPending)
    {  
        for(int i=0 ; i<10000000; i++) 
        {  
            int j = i/3; 
        }
    }
}

Algorithm to randomly generate an aesthetically-pleasing color palette

I would use a color wheel and given a random position you could add the golden angle (137,5 degrees)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_angle

in order to get different colours each time that do not overlap.

Adjusting the brightness for the color wheel you could get also different bright/dark color combinations.

I've found this blog post that explains really well the problem and the solution using the golden ratio.

http://martin.ankerl.com/2009/12/09/how-to-create-random-colors-programmatically/

UPDATE: I've just found this other approach:

It's called RYB(red, yellow, blue) method and it's described in this paper:

http://threekings.tk/mirror/ryb_TR.pdf

as "Paint Inspired Color Compositing".

The algorithm generates the colors and each new color is chosen to maximize its euclidian distance to the previously selected ones.

Here you can find a a good implementation in javascript:

http://afriggeri.github.com/RYB/

UPDATE 2:

The Sciences Po Medialb have just released a tool called "I want Hue" that generate color palettes for data scientists. Using different color spaces and generating the palettes by using k-means clustering or force vectors ( repulsion graphs) The results from those methods are very good, they show the theory and an implementation in their web page.

HTTP status code 0 - Error Domain=NSURLErrorDomain?

A status code of 0 in an NSHTTPURLResponse object generally means there was no response, and can occur for various reasons. The server will never return a status of 0 as this is not a valid HTTP status code.

In your case, you are appearing to get a status code of 0 because the request is timing out and 0 is just the default value for the property. The timeout itself could be for various reasons, such as the server simply not responding in time, being blocked by a firewall, or your entire network connection being down. Usually in the case of the latter though the phone is smart enough to know it doesn't have a network connection and will fail immediately. However, it will still fail with an apparent status code of 0.

Note that in cases where the status code is 0, the real error is captured in the returned NSError object, not the NSHTTPURLResponse.

HTTP status 408 is pretty uncommon in my experience. I've never encountered one myself. But it is apparently used in cases where the client needs to maintain an active socket connection to the server, and the server is waiting on the client to send more data over the open socket, but it doesn't in a given amount of time and the server ends the connection with a 408 status code, essentially telling the client "you took too long".

How to randomly select rows in SQL?

Chosen Jquery Plugin - getting selected values

As of 2016, you can do this more simply than in any of the answers already given:

$('#myChosenBox').val();

where "myChosenBox" is the id of the original select input. Or, in the change event:

$('#myChosenBox').on('change', function(e, params) {
    alert(e.target.value); // OR
    alert(this.value); // OR
    alert(params.selected); // also in Panagiotis Kousaris' answer
}

In the Chosen doc, in the section near the bottom of the page on triggering events, it says "Chosen triggers a number of standard and custom events on the original select field." One of those standard events is the change event, so you can use it in the same way as you would with a standard select input. You don't have to mess around with using Chosen's applied classes as selectors if you don't want to. (For the change event, that is. Other events are often a different matter.)

What is the most efficient way to create a dictionary of two pandas Dataframe columns?

TL;DR

>>> import pandas as pd
>>> df = pd.DataFrame({'Position':[1,2,3,4,5], 'Letter':['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e']})
>>> dict(sorted(df.values.tolist())) # Sort of sorted... 
{'a': 1, 'b': 2, 'c': 3, 'd': 4, 'e': 5}
>>> from collections import OrderedDict
>>> OrderedDict(df.values.tolist())
OrderedDict([('a', 1), ('b', 2), ('c', 3), ('d', 4), ('e', 5)])

In Long

Explaining solution: dict(sorted(df.values.tolist()))

Given:

df = pd.DataFrame({'Position':[1,2,3,4,5], 'Letter':['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e']})

[out]:

 Letter Position
0   a   1
1   b   2
2   c   3
3   d   4
4   e   5

Try:

# Get the values out to a 2-D numpy array, 
df.values

[out]:

array([['a', 1],
       ['b', 2],
       ['c', 3],
       ['d', 4],
       ['e', 5]], dtype=object)

Then optionally:

# Dump it into a list so that you can sort it using `sorted()`
sorted(df.values.tolist()) # Sort by key

Or:

# Sort by value:
from operator import itemgetter
sorted(df.values.tolist(), key=itemgetter(1))

[out]:

[['a', 1], ['b', 2], ['c', 3], ['d', 4], ['e', 5]]

Lastly, cast the list of list of 2 elements into a dict.

dict(sorted(df.values.tolist()))

[out]:

{'a': 1, 'b': 2, 'c': 3, 'd': 4, 'e': 5}

Answering @sbradbio comment:

If there are multiple values for a specific key and you would like to keep all of them, it's the not the most efficient but the most intuitive way is:

from collections import defaultdict
import pandas as pd

multivalue_dict = defaultdict(list)

df = pd.DataFrame({'Position':[1,2,4,4,4], 'Letter':['a', 'b', 'd', 'e', 'f']})

for idx,row in df.iterrows():
    multivalue_dict[row['Position']].append(row['Letter'])

[out]:

>>> print(multivalue_dict)
defaultdict(list, {1: ['a'], 2: ['b'], 4: ['d', 'e', 'f']})

Push method in React Hooks (useState)?

Most recommended method is using wrapper function and spread operator together. For example, if you have initialized a state called name like this,

const [names, setNames] = useState([])

You can push to this array like this,

setNames(names => [...names, newName])

Hope that helps.

How to sort an ArrayList?

Using lambdas (Java8), and stripping it down to the barest of syntax (the JVM will infer plenty in this case), you get:

Collections.sort(testList, (a, b) -> b.compareTo(a));

A more verbose version:

// Implement a reverse-order Comparator by lambda function
Comparator<Double> comp = (Double a, Double b) -> {
    return b.compareTo(a);
};

Collections.sort(testList, comp);

The use of a lambda is possible because the Comparator interface has only a single method to implement, so the VM can infer which method is implementing. Since the types of the params can be inferred, they don't need to be stated (i.e. (a, b) instead of (Double a, Double b). And since the lambda body has only a single line, and the method is expected to return a value, the return is inferred and the braces aren't necessary.

What is the difference between %g and %f in C?

See any reference manual, such as the man page:

f,F

The double argument is rounded and converted to decimal notation in the style [-]ddd.ddd, where the number of digits after the decimal-point character is equal to the precision specification. If the precision is missing, it is taken as 6; if the precision is explicitly zero, no decimal-point character appears. If a decimal point appears, at least one digit appears before it. (The SUSv2 does not know about F and says that character string representations for infinity and NaN may be made available. The C99 standard specifies '[-]inf' or '[-]infinity' for infinity, and a string starting with 'nan' for NaN, in the case of f conversion, and '[-]INF' or '[-]INFINITY' or 'NAN*' in the case of F conversion.)

g,G

The double argument is converted in style f or e (or F or E for G conversions). The precision specifies the number of significant digits. If the precision is missing, 6 digits are given; if the precision is zero, it is treated as 1. Style e is used if the exponent from its conversion is less than -4 or greater than or equal to the precision. Trailing zeros are removed from the fractional part of the result; a decimal point appears only if it is followed by at least one digit.

Increment a Integer's int value?

All the primitive wrapper objects are immutable.

I'm maybe late to the question but I want to add and clarify that when you do playerID++, what really happens is something like this:

playerID = Integer.valueOf( playerID.intValue() + 1);

Integer.valueOf(int) will always cache values in the range -128 to 127, inclusive, and may cache other values outside of this range.

opening a window form from another form programmatically

This might also help:

void ButtQuitClick(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    QuitWin form = new QuitWin();
    form.Show();
}

Change ButtQuit to your button name and also change QuitWin to the name of the form that you made.

When the button is clicked it will open another window, you will need to make another form and a button on your main form for it to work.

How to display line numbers in 'less' (GNU)

If you hit = and expect to see line numbers, but only see byte counts, then line numbers are turned off. Hit -n to turn them on, and make sure $LESS doesn't include 'n'.

Turning off line numbers by default (for example, setting LESS=n) speeds up searches in very large files. It is handy if you frequently search through big files, but don't usually care which line you're on.

I typically run with LESS=RSXin (escape codes enabled, long lines chopped, don't clear the screen on exit, ignore case on all lower case searches, and no line number counting by default) and only use -n or -S from inside less as needed.

Angularjs prevent form submission when input validation fails

I know it's late and was answered, but I'd like to share the neat stuff I made. I created an ng-validate directive that hooks the onsubmit of the form, then it issues prevent-default if the $eval is false:

app.directive('ngValidate', function() {
  return function(scope, element, attrs) {
    if (!element.is('form'))
        throw new Error("ng-validate must be set on a form elment!");

    element.bind("submit", function(event) {
        if (!scope.$eval(attrs.ngValidate, {'$event': event}))
            event.preventDefault();
        if (!scope.$$phase)
            scope.$digest();            
    });
  };
});

In your html:

How to read file using NPOI

It might be helpful to rely on the Workbook factory to instantiate the workbook object since the factory method will do the detection of xls or xlsx for you. Reference: http://apache-poi.1045710.n5.nabble.com/How-to-check-for-valid-excel-files-using-POI-without-checking-the-file-extension-td2341055.html

IWorkbook workbook = WorkbookFactory.Create(inputStream);

If you're not sure of the Sheet's name but you are sure of the index (0 based), you can grab the sheet like this:

ISheet sheet = workbook.GetSheetAt(sheetIndex);

You can then iterate through the rows using code supplied by the accepted answer from mj82

sed edit file in place

On a system where sed does not have the ability to edit files in place, I think the better solution would be to use perl:

perl -pi -e 's/foo/bar/g' file.txt

Although this does create a temporary file, it replaces the original because an empty in place suffix/extension has been supplied.

How can I compile and run c# program without using visual studio?

There are different ways for this:

1.Building C# Applications Using csc.exe

While it is true that you might never decide to build a large-scale application using nothing but the C# command-line compiler, it is important to understand the basics of how to compile your code files by hand.

2.Building .NET Applications Using Notepad++

Another simple text editor I’d like to quickly point out is the freely downloadable Notepad++ application. This tool can be obtained from http://notepad-plus.sourceforge.net. Unlike the primitive Windows Notepad application, Notepad++ allows you to author code in a variety of languages and supports

3.Building .NET Applications Using SharpDevelop

As you might agree, authoring C# code with Notepad++ is a step in the right direction, compared to Notepad. However, these tools do not provide rich IntelliSense capabilities for C# code, designers for building graphical user interfaces, project templates, or database manipulation utilities. To address such needs, allow me to introduce the next .NET development option: SharpDevelop (also known as "#Develop").You can download it from http://www.sharpdevelop.com.

Python 3 Building an array of bytes

what about simply constructing your frame from a standard list ?

frame = bytes([0xA2,0x01,0x02,0x03,0x04])

the bytes() constructor can build a byte frame from an iterable containing int values. an iterable is anything which implements the iterator protocol: an list, an iterator, an iterable object like what is returned by range()...

Could not create the Java virtual machine

The problem got resolved when I edited the file /etc/bashrc with same contents as in /etc/profiles and in /etc/profiles.d/limits.sh and did a re-login.

java.util.Date to XMLGregorianCalendar

I should like to take a step back and a modern look at this 10 years old question. The classes mentioned, Date and XMLGregorianCalendar, are old now. I challenge the use of them and offer alternatives.

Date was always poorly designed and is more than 20 years old. This is simple: don’t use it.
XMLGregorianCalendar is old too and has an old-fashioned design. As I understand it, it was used for producing dates and times in XML format for XML documents. Like 2009-05-07T19:05:45.678+02:00 or 2009-05-07T17:05:45.678Z. These formats agree well enough with ISO 8601 that the classes of java.time, the modern Java date and time API, can produce them, which we prefer.

No conversion necessary

For many (most?) purposes the modern replacement for a Date will be an Instant. An Instant is a point in time (just as a Date is).

    Instant yourInstant = // ...
    System.out.println(yourInstant);

An example output from this snippet:

2009-05-07T17:05:45.678Z

It’s the same as the latter of my example XMLGregorianCalendar strings above. As most of you know, it comes from Instant.toString being implicitly called by System.out.println. With java.time, in many cases we don’t need the conversions that in the old days we made between Date, Calendar, XMLGregorianCalendar and other classes (in some cases we do need conversions, though, I am showing you a couple in the next section).

Controlling the offset

Neither a Date nor in Instant has got a time zone nor a UTC offset. The previously accepted and still highest voted answer by Ben Noland uses the JVMs current default time zone for selecting the offset of the XMLGregorianCalendar. To include an offset in a modern object we use an OffsetDateTime. For example:

    ZoneId zone = ZoneId.of("America/Asuncion");
    OffsetDateTime dateTime = yourInstant.atZone(zone).toOffsetDateTime();
    System.out.println(dateTime);

2009-05-07T13:05:45.678-04:00

Again this conforms with XML format. If you want to use the current JVM time zone setting again, set zone to ZoneId.systemDefault().

What if I absolutely need an XMLGregorianCalendar?

There are more ways to convert Instant to XMLGregorianCalendar. I will present a couple, each with its pros and cons. First, just as an XMLGregorianCalendar produces a string like 2009-05-07T17:05:45.678Z, it can also be built from such a string:

    String dateTimeString = yourInstant.toString();
    XMLGregorianCalendar date2
            = DatatypeFactory.newInstance().newXMLGregorianCalendar(dateTimeString);
    System.out.println(date2);

2009-05-07T17:05:45.678Z

Pro: it’s short and I don’t think it gives any surprises. Con: To me it feels like a waste formatting the instant into a string and parsing it back.

    ZonedDateTime dateTime = yourInstant.atZone(zone);
    GregorianCalendar c = GregorianCalendar.from(dateTime);
    XMLGregorianCalendar date2 = DatatypeFactory.newInstance().newXMLGregorianCalendar(c);
    System.out.println(date2);

2009-05-07T13:05:45.678-04:00

Pro: It’s the official conversion. Controlling the offset comes naturally. Con: It goes through more steps and is therefore longer.

What if we got a Date?

If you got an old-fashioned Date object from a legacy API that you cannot afford to change just now, convert it to Instant:

    Instant i = yourDate.toInstant();
    System.out.println(i);

Output is the same as before:

2009-05-07T17:05:45.678Z

If you want to control the offset, convert further to an OffsetDateTime in the same way as above.

If you’ve got an old-fashioned Date and absolutely need an old-fashioned XMLGregorianCalendar, just use the answer by Ben Noland.

Display special characters when using print statement

Use repr:

a = "Hello\tWorld\nHello World"
print(repr(a))
# 'Hello\tWorld\nHello World'

Note you do not get \s for a space. I hope that was a typo...?

But if you really do want \s for spaces, you could do this:

print(repr(a).replace(' ',r'\s'))

Disable keyboard on EditText

To add to Alex Kucherenko solution: the issue with the cursor getting disappearing after calling setInputType(0) is due to a framework bug on ICS (and JB).

The bug is documented here: https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=27609.

To workaround this, call setRawInputType(InputType.TYPE_CLASS_TEXT) right after the setInputType call.

To stop the keyboard from appearing, just override OnTouchListener of the EditText and return true (swallowing the touch event):

ed.setOnTouchListener(new OnTouchListener() {

            @Override
            public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {

                return true;
            }
        });

The reasons for the cursor appearing on GB devices and not on ICS+ had me tearing my hair out for a couple of hours, so I hope this saves someone's time.

Convert InputStream to byte array in Java

Safe solution (with capability of close streams correctly):

Java 9+:

 final byte[] bytes;
 try (inputStream) {
     bytes = inputStream.readAllBytes();
 }

Java 8:

 public static byte[] readAllBytes(InputStream inputStream) throws IOException {
     final int bufLen = 4 * 0x400; // 4KB
     byte[] buf = new byte[bufLen];
     int readLen;
     IOException exception = null;

     try {
         try (ByteArrayOutputStream outputStream = new ByteArrayOutputStream()) {
             while ((readLen = inputStream.read(buf, 0, bufLen)) != -1)
                 outputStream.write(buf, 0, readLen);

             return outputStream.toByteArray();
         }
     } catch (IOException e) {
         exception = e;
         throw e;
     } finally {
         if (exception == null) inputStream.close();
         else try {
             inputStream.close();
         } catch (IOException e) {
             exception.addSuppressed(e);
         }
     }
 }

Kotlin (when Java 9+ isn't accessible):

 @Throws(IOException::class)
 fun InputStream.readAllBytes(): ByteArray {
     val bufLen = 4 * 0x400 // 4KB
     val buf = ByteArray(bufLen)
     var readLen: Int = 0

     ByteArrayOutputStream().use { o ->
         this.use { i ->
             while (i.read(buf, 0, bufLen).also { readLen = it } != -1)
                 o.write(buf, 0, readLen)
         }

         return o.toByteArray()
     }
 }

To avoid nested use see here.

Scala (when Java 9+ isn't accessible) (By @Joan. Thx):

def readAllBytes(inputStream: InputStream): Array[Byte] =
  Stream.continually(inputStream.read).takeWhile(_ != -1).map(_.toByte).toArray

What are Java command line options to set to allow JVM to be remotely debugged?

Selecting Multiple Values from a Dropdown List in Google Spreadsheet

I have found solution at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dm4z9l26O0I

You would need to use Tools > Script Editor. Create .gs and .html files there. See example at http://goo.gl/LxGXfU (link can be also found under Youtube video). Just copy

Once you have .gs and .html files in place save them and reload your spreadsheet. You will see "Custom menu" as the last item of your top menu. Select cell you would like to manage and click on this menu item.

During the first time it will ask you to authorize application - go ahead and do this.

Note (1): make sure that your cell has "Data validation" defined before you click on "Custom menu".

Note (2): it appeared that solution works with "List from a range" criteria for Data validation (it does not work with "List of items")

How to host google web fonts on my own server?

I have a script written in PHP similar to that of @neverpanic that automatically downloads both the CSS and fonts (both hinted and unhinted) from Google. It then serves the correct CSS and fonts from your own server based on the User Agent. It keeps its own cache, so fonts and CSS of a User Agent will only be downloaded once.

It's in a premature stage, but it can be found here: DaAwesomeP / php-offline-fonts

PHP: date function to get month of the current date

To compare with an int do this:

    echo "They are the same";
}
?>

Generating a unique machine id

In my program I first check for Terminal Server and use the WTSClientHardwareId. Else the MAC address of the local PC should be adequate.

If you really want to use the list of properties you provided leave out things like Name and DriverVersion, Clockspeed, etc. since it's possibly OS dependent. Try outputting the same info on both operating systems and leave out that which differs between.

Where does the slf4j log file get saved?

It does not write to a file by default. You would need to configure something like the RollingFileAppender and have the root logger write to it (possibly in addition to the default ConsoleAppender).

how to define variable in jquery

In jquery, u can delcare variable two styles.

One is,

$.name = 'anirudha';
alert($.name);

Second is,

var hText = $("#head1").text();

Second is used when you read data from textbox, label, etc.

Can you have multiple $(document).ready(function(){ ... }); sections?

You can also do it the following way:

<html>
<head>
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>
 $(document).ready(function(){
     $("#hide").click(function(){
     $("#test").hide();
     });
     $("#show").click(function(){
     $("#test").show();
     });
 });
</script>
</head>

<body>
<h2>This is a test of jQuery!</h2>
<p id="test">This is a hidden paragraph.</p>
<button id="hide">Click me to hide</button>
<button id="show">Click me to show</button>
</body>

the previous answers showed using multiple named functions inside a single .ready block, or a single unnamed function in the .ready block, with another named function outside the .ready block. I found this question while researching if there was a way to have multiple unnamed functions inside the .ready block - I could not get the syntax correct. I finally figured it out, and hoped that by posting my test code I would help others looking for the answer to the same question I had

convert xml to java object using jaxb (unmarshal)

Tests

On the Tests class we will add an @XmlRootElement annotation. Doing this will let your JAXB implementation know that when a document starts with this element that it should instantiate this class. JAXB is configuration by exception, this means you only need to add annotations where your mapping differs from the default. Since the testData property differs from the default mapping we will use the @XmlElement annotation. You may find the following tutorial helpful: http://wiki.eclipse.org/EclipseLink/Examples/MOXy/GettingStarted

package forum11221136;

import javax.xml.bind.annotation.*;

@XmlRootElement
public class Tests {

    TestData testData;

    @XmlElement(name="test-data")
    public TestData getTestData() {
        return testData;
    }

    public void setTestData(TestData testData) {
        this.testData = testData;
    }

}

TestData

On this class I used the @XmlType annotation to specify the order in which the elements should be ordered in. I added a testData property that appeared to be missing. I also used an @XmlElement annotation for the same reason as in the Tests class.

package forum11221136;

import java.util.List;
import javax.xml.bind.annotation.*;

@XmlType(propOrder={"title", "book", "count", "testData"})
public class TestData {
    String title;
    String book;
    String count;
    List<TestData> testData;

    public String getTitle() {
        return title;
    }
    public void setTitle(String title) {
        this.title = title;
    }
    public String getBook() {
        return book;
    }
    public void setBook(String book) {
        this.book = book;
    }
    public String getCount() {
        return count;
    }
    public void setCount(String count) {
        this.count = count;
    }
    @XmlElement(name="test-data")
    public List<TestData> getTestData() {
        return testData;
    }
    public void setTestData(List<TestData> testData) {
        this.testData = testData;
    }
}

Demo

Below is an example of how to use the JAXB APIs to read (unmarshal) the XML and populate your domain model and then write (marshal) the result back to XML.

package forum11221136;

import java.io.File;
import javax.xml.bind.*;

public class Demo {

    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        JAXBContext jc = JAXBContext.newInstance(Tests.class);

        Unmarshaller unmarshaller = jc.createUnmarshaller();
        File xml = new File("src/forum11221136/input.xml");
        Tests tests = (Tests) unmarshaller.unmarshal(xml);

        Marshaller marshaller = jc.createMarshaller();
        marshaller.setProperty(Marshaller.JAXB_FORMATTED_OUTPUT, true);
        marshaller.marshal(tests, System.out);
    }

}

What is "origin" in Git?

The best answer here:

https://www.git-tower.com/learn/git/glossary/origin

In Git, "origin" is a shorthand name for the remote repository that a project was originally cloned from. More precisely, it is used instead of that original repository's URL - and thereby makes referencing much easier.

How do I count columns of a table

I think you need also to specify the name of the database:

SELECT COUNT(*)
FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS
WHERE table_schema = 'SchemaNameHere'
  AND table_name = 'TableNameHere'

if you don't specify the name of your database, chances are it will count all columns as long as it matches the name of your table. For example, you have two database: DBaseA and DbaseB, In DBaseA, it has two tables: TabA(3 fields), TabB(4 fields). And in DBaseB, it has again two tables: TabA(4 fields), TabC(4 fields).

if you run this query:

SELECT count(*)
FROM information_schema.columns
WHERE table_name = 'TabA'

it will return 7 because there are two tables named TabA. But by adding another condition table_schema = 'SchemaNameHere':

SELECT COUNT(*)
FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS
WHERE table_schema = 'DBaseA'
  AND table_name = 'TabA'

then it will only return 3.

How to Check byte array empty or not?

You must swap the order of your test:

From:

if (Attachment.Length > 0 && Attachment != null)

To:

if (Attachment != null && Attachment.Length > 0 )

The first version attempts to dereference Attachment first and therefore throws if it's null. The second version will check for nullness first and only go on to check the length if it's not null (due to "boolean short-circuiting").

[EDIT] I come from the future to tell you that with later versions of C# you can use a "null conditional operator" to simplify the code above to:

if (Attachment?.Length > 0)

Using fonts with Rails asset pipeline

just place your fonts inside app/assets/fonts folder and set the autoload path when app start using writing the code in application.rb

config.assets.paths << Rails.root.join("app", "assets", "fonts") and

then use the following code in css.

@font-face {

 font-family: 'icomoon';
 src: asset-url('icomoon.eot');
 src: asset-url('icomoon.eot') format('embedded-opentype'),
      asset-url('icomoon.woff') format('woff'),
      asset-url('icomoon.ttf') format('truetype'),
      asset-url('icomoon.svg') format('svg');
 font-weight: normal;
 font-style: normal;

}

Give it a try.

$myUser = "root";
$myPass = "pass";
$myDB = "testdb";

$conn = mssql_connect($myServer,$myUser,$myPass);
if (!$conn)
{ 
  die('Not connected : ' . mssql_get_last_message());
} 
$db_selected = mssql_select_db($myDB, $conn);
if (!$db_selected) 
{
  die ('Can\'t use db : ' . mssql_get_last_message());

bootstrap multiselect get selected values

the solution what I found to work in my case

$('#multiselect1').multiselect({
    selectAllValue: 'multiselect-all',
    enableCaseInsensitiveFiltering: true,
    enableFiltering: true,
    maxHeight: '300',
    buttonWidth: '235',
    onChange: function(element, checked) {
        var brands = $('#multiselect1 option:selected');
        var selected = [];
        $(brands).each(function(index, brand){
            selected.push([$(this).val()]);
        });

        console.log(selected);
    }
});

Showing alert in angularjs when user leaves a page

The other examples here work fine for the old versions of ui-router (>=0.3.x) but all state events, such as $stateChangeStart, are deprecated as of 1.0. The new ui-router 1.0 code uses the $transitions service. So you need to inject $transitions into your component then use the $transitions.onBefore method as the code below demonstrates.

$transitions.onBefore({}, function(transition) {
  return confirm("Are you sure you want to leave this page?");
});

This is just a super simple example. The $transitions service can accept more complicated responses such as promises. See the HookResult type for more information.

How can I disable HREF if onclick is executed?

In my case, I had a condition when the user click the "a" element. The condition was:

If other section had more than ten items, then the user should be not redirected to other page.

If other section had less than ten items, then the user should be redirected to other page.

The functionality of the "a" elements depends of the other component. The code within click event is the follow:

var elementsOtherSection = document.querySelectorAll("#vehicle-item").length;
if (elementsOtherSection> 10){
     return true;
}else{
     event.preventDefault();
     return false;
}

How do you get the current page number of a ViewPager for Android?

You will figure out that setOnPageChangeListener is deprecated, use addOnPageChangeListener, as below:

ViewPager.addOnPageChangeListener(new ViewPager.OnPageChangeListener() {
    @Override
    public void onPageScrolled(int position, float positionOffset, int positionOffsetPixels) {

    }

    @Override
    public void onPageSelected(int position) {
       if(position == 1){  // if you want the second page, for example
           //Your code here
       }
    }

    @Override
    public void onPageScrollStateChanged(int state) {

    }
});

Eclipse, regular expression search and replace

NomeN has answered correctly, but this answer wouldn't be of much use for beginners like me because we will have another problem to solve and we wouldn't know how to use RegEx in there. So I am adding a bit of explanation to this. The answer is

search: (\w+\\.someMethod\$\$)

replace: ((TypeName)$1)

Here:

In search:

First and last (, ) depicts a group in regex
\w depicts words (alphanumeric + underscore)
+ depicts one or more (ie one or more of alphanumeric + underscore)
. is a special character which depicts any character (ie .+ means one or more of any character). Because this is a special character to depict a . we should give an escape character with it, ie \.
someMethod is given as it is to be searched.
The two parenthesis (, ) are given along with escape character because they are special character which are used to depict a group (we will discuss about group in next point)

In replace:

It is given ((TypeName)$1), here $1 depicts the group. That is all the characters that are enclosed within the first and last parenthesis (, ) in the search field
Also make sure you have checked the 'Regular expression' option in find an replace box

Convert java.time.LocalDate into java.util.Date type

Kotlin Solution:

1) Paste this extension function somewhere.

fun LocalDate.toDate(): Date = Date.from(this.atStartOfDay(ZoneId.systemDefault()).toInstant())

2) Use it, and never google this again.

val myDate = myLocalDate.toDate()

How to style child components from parent component's CSS file?

There are a few options to achieve this in Angular:

1) You can use deep css selectors

:host >>> .childrens {
     color: red;
 }

2) You can also change view encapsulation it's set to Emulated as a default but can be easily changed to Native which uses Shadow DOM native browser implementation, in your case you just need to disable it

For example:`

import { Component, ViewEncapsulation } from '@angular/core';

@Component({
  selector: 'parent',
  styles: [`
    .first {
      color:blue;
    }
    .second {
      color:red;
    }
 `],
 template: `
    <div>
      <child class="first">First</child>
      <child class="second">Second</child>
    </div>`,
  encapsulation: ViewEncapsulation.None,
 })
 export class ParentComponent  {
   constructor() {

   }
 }

How should I deal with "package 'xxx' is not available (for R version x.y.z)" warning?

This is what I finally could do for installing psych package in R-3.4.1 when I got the same warning

1:Googled for that package.

2:downloaded it manually having tar.gz extension

3:Chose the option "Package Archive File (.zip;.tar.gz)" for install packages in R

4:browsed locally to the place where it was downloaded and clicked install

You may get a warning: dependencies 'xyz' not available for the package ,then first install those from the repository and then do steps 3-4 .

Can't compile project when I'm using Lombok under IntelliJ IDEA

what is the difference between json and xml

They are both data formats for hierarchical data, so while the syntax is quite different, the structure is similar. Example:

JSON:

{
  "persons": [
    {
      "name": "Ford Prefect",
      "gender": "male"
    },
    {
      "name": "Arthur Dent",
      "gender": "male"
    },
    {
      "name": "Tricia McMillan",
      "gender": "female"
    }
  ]
}

XML:

<persons>
  <person>
    <name>Ford Prefect</name>
    <gender>male</gender>
  </person>
  <person>
    <name>Arthur Dent</name>
    <gender>male</gender>
  </person>
  <person>
    <name>Tricia McMillan</name>
    <gender>female</gender>
  </person>
</persons>

The XML format is more advanced than shown by the example, though. You can for example add attributes to each element, and you can use namespaces to partition elements. There are also standards for defining the format of an XML file, the XPATH language to query XML data, and XSLT for transforming XML into presentation data.

The XML format has been around for some time, so there is a lot of software developed for it. The JSON format is quite new, so there is a lot less support for it.

While XML was developed as an independent data format, JSON was developed specifically for use with Javascript and AJAX, so the format is exactly the same as a Javascript literal object (that is, it's a subset of the Javascript code, as it for example can't contain expressions to determine values).

You need to install postgresql-server-dev-X.Y for building a server-side extension or libpq-dev for building a client-side application

Use these following commands, this will solve the error:

sudo apt-get install postgresql

then fire:

sudo apt-get install python-psycopg2

and last:

sudo apt-get install libpq-dev

Difference between View and Request scope in managed beans

A @ViewScoped bean lives exactly as long as a JSF view. It usually starts with a fresh new GET request, or with a navigation action, and will then live as long as the enduser submits any POST form in the view to an action method which returns null or void (and thus navigates back to the same view). Once you refresh the page, or return a non-null string (even an empty string!) navigation outcome, then the view scope will end.

A @RequestScoped bean lives exactly as long a HTTP request. It will thus be garbaged by end of every request and recreated on every new request, hereby losing all changed properties.

A @ViewScoped bean is thus particularly more useful in rich Ajax-enabled views which needs to remember the (changed) view state across Ajax requests. A @RequestScoped one would be recreated on every Ajax request and thus fail to remember all changed view state. Note that a @ViewScoped bean does not share any data among different browser tabs/windows in the same session like as a @SessionScoped bean. Every view has its own unique @ViewScoped bean.

How to call VS Code Editor from terminal / command line

You can also run VS Code from the terminal by typing code after adding it to the path:

Launch VS Code. Open the Command Palette (??P) and type shell command to find the Shell Command: Install code command in PATH command. Mac shell commands

Restart the terminal for the new $PATH value to take effect. You'll be able to type code . in any folder to start editing files in that folder.

fastest MD5 Implementation in JavaScript

I only need to support HTML5 browsers that support typed arrays (DataView, ArrayBuffer, etc.) I think I took the Joseph Myers code and modified it to support passing in a Uint8Array. I did not catch all the improvements, and there are still probably some char() array artifacts that can be improved on. I needed this for adding to the PouchDB project.

var PouchUtils = {};
PouchUtils.Crypto = {};
(function () {
    PouchUtils.Crypto.MD5 = function (uint8Array) {
        function md5cycle(x, k) {
            var a = x[0], b = x[1], c = x[2], d = x[3];

ln (Natural Log) in Python

math.log is the natural logarithm:

From the documentation:

math.log(x[, base]) With one argument, return the natural logarithm of x (to base e).

Your equation is therefore:

n = math.log((1 + (FV * r) / p) / math.log(1 + r)))

Note that in your code you convert n to a str twice which is unnecessary

How to use npm with ASP.NET Core

Much simpler approach is to use OdeToCode.UseNodeModules Nuget package. I just tested it with .Net Core 3.0. All you need to do is add the package to the solution and reference it in the Configure method of the Startup class:

app.UseNodeModules();

I learned about it from the excellent Building a Web App with ASP.NET Core, MVC, Entity Framework Core, Bootstrap, and Angular Pluralsight course by Shawn Wildermuth.

Python, print all floats to 2 decimal places in output

If what you want is to have the print operation automatically change floats to only show 2 decimal places, consider writing a function to replace 'print'. For instance:

def fp(*args):  # fp means 'floating print'
    tmps = []
    for arg in args:
        if type(arg) is float: arg = round(arg, 2)  # transform only floats
        tmps.append(str(arg))
    print(" ".join(tmps)

Use fp() in place of print ...

fp("PI is", 3.14159) ... instead of ... print "PI is", 3.14159

ffmpeg -i "concat:input1|input2" -codec copy output

an example...

ffmpeg -i "concat:01.mp4|02.mp4" -codec copy output.mp4

Python

Using some python code to do it with as many mp4 there are in a folder (install python from python.org, copy and paste and save this code into a file called mp4.py and run it from the cmd opened in the folder with python mp4.py and all the mp4 in the folder will be concatenated)

import glob
import os

stringa = ""
for f in glob.glob("*.mp4"):
    stringa += f + "|"
os.system("ffmpeg -i \"concat:" + stringa + "\" -codec copy output.mp4")

Version 2 with Python

Taken from my post on my blog, this is how I do it in python:

import os
import glob

def concatenate():
    stringa = "ffmpeg -i \"concat:"
    elenco_video = glob.glob("*.mp4")
    elenco_file_temp = []
    for f in elenco_video:
        file = "temp" + str(elenco_video.index(f) + 1) + ".ts"
        os.system("ffmpeg -i " + f + " -c copy -bsf:v h264_mp4toannexb -f mpegts " + file)
        elenco_file_temp.append(file)
    print(elenco_file_temp)
    for f in elenco_file_temp:
        stringa += f
        if elenco_file_temp.index(f) != len(elenco_file_temp)-1:
            stringa += "|"
        else:
            stringa += "\" -c copy  -bsf:a aac_adtstoasc output.mp4"
    print(stringa)
    os.system(stringa)

concatenate()

Bootstrap - Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'fn' of undefined

I had the same problem. Firefox showed me this error but in chrome everything was OK. then after a google search, i used google cdn for jquery in index.html instead of loading local js file and the problem solved.

How can I start and check my MySQL log?

Its given on OFFICIAL MYSQL website.

SET GLOBAL general_log = 'ON';

You can also use custom path:

[mysqld]
# Set Slow Query Log
long_query_time = 1
slow_query_log = 1
slow_query_log_file = "C:/slowquery.log"

#Set General Log
log = "C:/genquery.log"

Move column by name to front of table in pandas

I didn't like how I had to explicitly specify all the other column in the other solutions so this worked best for me. Though it might be slow for large dataframes...?

df = df.set_index('Mid').reset_index()

What is the right way to treat argparse.Namespace() as a dictionary?

Straight from the horse's mouth:

If you prefer to have dict-like view of the attributes, you can use the standard Python idiom, vars():
>>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
>>> parser.add_argument('--foo')
>>> args = parser.parse_args(['--foo', 'BAR'])
>>> vars(args)
{'foo': 'BAR'}

Trigger standard HTML5 validation (form) without using submit button?

You have to submit the form to get the html5 validation to work. There's a way around it to get what you want. Se the code:

<body>
    <h1>Validation Example</h1><br />
    <h2>Insert just 1 digit<h2>
    <form id="form" onsubmit="return false">
        <label>Input<input type="text" pattern="[0-9]" id="input" /></label> 
        <input type="submit" class="hide" id="inputButton">         
    </form>
</body>

See an example here

Note: using form.submit() didn't work for me. So i created a hidden submit button, that triggers on keyup. Don't ask me why. Maybe someone could clarify it.

How to POST using HTTPclient content type = application/x-www-form-urlencoded

Storing an object in state of a React component?

this.setState({abc: {xyz: 'new value'}}); will NOT work, as state.abc will be entirely overwritten, not merged.

This works for me:

this.setState((previousState) => {
  previousState.abc.xyz = 'blurg';
  return previousState;
});

Unless I'm reading the docs wrong, Facebook recommends the above format. https://facebook.github.io/react/docs/component-api.html

Additionally, I guess the most direct way without mutating state is to directly copy by using the ES6 spread/rest operator:

const newState = { ...this.state.abc }; // deconstruct state.abc into a new object-- effectively making a copy
newState.xyz = 'blurg';
this.setState(newState);

Detecting EOF in C

Another issue is that you're reading with scanf("%f", &input); only. If the user types something that can't be interpreted as a C floating-point number, like "pi", the scanf() call will not assign anything to input, and won't progress from there. This means it would attempt to keep reading "pi", and failing.

Given the change to while(!feof(stdin)) which other posters are correctly recommending, if you typed "pi" in there would be an endless loop of printing out the former value of input and printing the prompt, but the program would never process any new input.

scanf() returns the number of assignments to input variables it made. If it made no assignment, that means it didn't find a floating-point number, and you should read through more input with something like char string[100];scanf("%99s", string);. This will remove the next string from the input stream (up to 99 characters, anyway - the extra char is for the null terminator on the string).

You know, this is reminding me of all the reasons I hate scanf(), and why I use fgets() instead and then maybe parse it using sscanf().

Swift do-try-catch syntax

Create enum like this:

//Error Handling in swift
enum spendingError : Error{
case minus
case limit
}

Create method like:

 func calculateSpending(morningSpending:Double,eveningSpending:Double) throws ->Double{
if morningSpending < 0 || eveningSpending < 0{
    throw spendingError.minus
}
if (morningSpending + eveningSpending) > 100{
    throw spendingError.limit
}
return morningSpending + eveningSpending
}

Now check error is there or not and handle it:

do{
try calculateSpending(morningSpending: 60, eveningSpending: 50)
} catch spendingError.minus{
print("This is not possible...")
} catch spendingError.limit{
print("Limit reached...")
}

jQuery: get parent, parent id?

$(this).parent().parent().attr('id');

Is how you would get the id of the parent's parent.

EDIT:

$(this).closest('ul').attr('id');

Is a more foolproof solution for your case.

The difference between fork(), vfork(), exec() and clone()

execve() replaces the current executable image with another one loaded from an executable file.
fork() creates a child process.
vfork() is a historical optimized version of fork(), meant to be used when execve() is called directly after fork(). It turned out to work well in non-MMU systems (where fork() cannot work in an efficient manner) and when fork()ing processes with a huge memory footprint to run some small program (think Java's Runtime.exec()). POSIX has standardized the posix_spawn() to replace these latter two more modern uses of vfork().
posix_spawn() does the equivalent of a fork()/execve(), and also allows some fd juggling in between. It's supposed to replace fork()/execve(), mainly for non-MMU platforms.
pthread_create() creates a new thread.
clone() is a Linux-specific call, which can be used to implement anything from fork() to pthread_create(). It gives a lot of control. Inspired on rfork().
rfork() is a Plan-9 specific call. It's supposed to be a generic call, allowing several degrees of sharing, between full processes and threads.

"Missing return statement" within if / for / while

That is illegal syntax. It is not an optional thing for you to return a variable. You MUST return a variable of the type you specify in your method.

public String myMethod()
{
    if(condition)
    {
       return x;
    }
}

You are effectively saying, I promise any class can use this method(public) and I promise it will always return a String(String).

Then you are saying IF my condition is true I will return x. Well that is too bad, there is no IF in your promise. You promised that myMethod will ALWAYS return a String. Even if your condition is ALWAYS true the compiler has to assume that there is a possibility of it being false. Therefore you always need to put a return at the end of your non-void method outside of any conditions JUST IN CASE all of your conditions fail.

public String myMethod()
{
    if(condition)
    {
       return x;
    }
  return ""; //or whatever the default behavior will be if all of your conditions fail to return.
}

Create a file from a ByteArrayOutputStream

You can do it with using a FileOutputStream and the writeTo method.

ByteArrayOutputStream byteArrayOutputStream = getByteStreamMethod();
try(OutputStream outputStream = new FileOutputStream("thefilename")) {
    byteArrayOutputStream.writeTo(outputStream);
}

Compare dates in MySQL

You can try below query,

and
    DATE_ADD('2011-11-10',INTERVAL 1 DAY)

Saving images in Python at a very high quality

In case you are working with seaborn plots, instead of Matplotlib, you can save a .png image like this:

Let's suppose you have a matrix object (either Pandas or NumPy), and you want to take a heatmap:

import seaborn as sb

image = sb.heatmap(matrix)   # This gets you the heatmap
image.figure.savefig("C:/Your/Path/ ... /your_image.png")   # This saves it

This code is compatible with the latest version of Seaborn. Other code around Stack Overflow worked only for previous versions.

Another way I like is this. I set the size of the next image as follows:

plt.subplots(figsize=(15,15))

And then later I plot the output in the console, from which I can copy-paste it where I want. (Since Seaborn is built on top of Matplotlib, there will not be any problem.)

iPhone get SSID without private library

This code work well in order to get SSID.

#import <SystemConfiguration/CaptiveNetwork.h>

@implementation IODAppDelegate

@synthesize window = _window;

- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions
{


CFArrayRef myArray = CNCopySupportedInterfaces();
CFDictionaryRef myDict = CNCopyCurrentNetworkInfo(CFArrayGetValueAtIndex(myArray, 0));
NSLog(@"Connected at:%@",myDict);
NSDictionary *myDictionary = (__bridge_transfer NSDictionary*)myDict;
NSString * BSSID = [myDictionary objectForKey:@"BSSID"];
NSLog(@"bssid is %@",BSSID);
// Override point for customization after application launch.
return YES;
}

And this is the results :

Connected at:{
BSSID = 0;
SSID = "Eqra'aOrange";
SSIDDATA = <45717261 27614f72 616e6765>;

}

Find the item with maximum occurrences in a list

I am surprised no-one has mentioned the simplest solution,max() with the key list.count:

max(lst,key=lst.count)

Example:

>>> lst = [1, 2, 45, 55, 5, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 5456, 56, 6, 7, 67]
>>> max(lst,key=lst.count)
4

This works in Python 3 or 2, but note that it only returns the most frequent item and not also the frequency. Also, in the case of a draw (i.e. joint most frequent item) only a single item is returned.

Although the time complexity of using max() is worse than using Counter.most_common(1) as PM 2Ring comments, the approach benefits from a rapid C implementation and I find this approach is fastest for short lists but slower for larger ones (Python 3.6 timings shown in IPython 5.3):

In [1]: from collections import Counter
   ...: 
   ...: def f1(lst):
   ...:     return max(lst, key = lst.count)
   ...: 
   ...: def f2(lst):
   ...:     return Counter(lst).most_common(1)
   ...: 
   ...: lst0 = [1,2,3,4,3]
   ...: lst1 = lst0[:] * 100
   ...: 

In [2]: %timeit -n 10 f1(lst0)
10 loops, best of 3: 3.32 us per loop

In [3]: %timeit -n 10 f2(lst0)
10 loops, best of 3: 26 us per loop

In [4]: %timeit -n 10 f1(lst1)
10 loops, best of 3: 4.04 ms per loop

In [5]: %timeit -n 10 f2(lst1)
10 loops, best of 3: 75.6 us per loop

Putting -moz-available and -webkit-fill-available in one width (css property)

Can we have functions inside functions in C++?

Modern C++ - Yes with lambdas!

In current versions of c++ (C++11, C++14, and C++17), you can have functions inside functions in the form of a lambda:

int main() {
    // This declares a lambda, which can be called just like a function
    auto print_message = [](std::string message) 
    { 
        std::cout << message << "\n"; 
    };

    // Prints "Hello!" 10 times
    for(int i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
        print_message("Hello!"); 
    }
}

Lambdas can also modify local variables through **capture-by-reference*. With capture-by-reference, the lambda has access to all local variables declared in the lambda's scope. It can modify and change them normally.

int main() {
    int i = 0;
    // Captures i by reference; increments it by one
    auto addOne = [&] () {
        i++; 
    };

    while(i < 10) {
        addOne(); //Add 1 to i
        std::cout << i << "\n";
    }
}

C++98 and C++03 - Not directly, but yes with static functions inside local classes

C++ doesn't support that directly.

That said, you can have local classes, and they can have functions (non-static or static), so you can get this to some extend, albeit it's a bit of a kludge:

int main() // it's int, dammit!
{
  struct X { // struct's as good as class
    static void a()
    {
    }
  };

  X::a();

  return 0;
}

However, I'd question the praxis. Everyone knows (well, now that you do, anyway :)) C++ doesn't support local functions, so they are used to not having them. They are not used, however, to that kludge. I would spend quite a while on this code to make sure it's really only there to allow local functions. Not good.

Counting unique / distinct values by group in a data frame

This would also work but is less eloquent than the plyr solution:

x <- sapply(split(myvec, myvec$name),  function(x) length(unique(x[, 2]))) 
data.frame(names=names(x), number_of_distinct_orders=x, row.names = NULL)

How to set time delay in javascript

For sync calls you can use the method below:

function sleep(milliseconds) {
  var start = new Date().getTime();
  for (var i = 0; i < 1e7; i++) {
    if ((new Date().getTime() - start) > milliseconds){
      break;
    }
  }
}

How to create a Date in SQL Server given the Day, Month and Year as Integers

In SQL Server 2012+, you can use datefromparts():

select datefromparts(@year, @month, @day)

In earlier versions, you can cast a string. Here is one method:

select cast(cast(@year*10000 + @month*100 + @day as varchar(255)) as date)

Finish all previous activities

I found this way, it'll clear all history and exit

Intent startMain = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_MAIN);
startMain.addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_HOME);
startMain.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
startActivity(startMain);
Intent intent = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), SplashScreen.class);
intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);
startActivity(intent);

finish();
System.exit(0);

Is there a command for formatting HTML in the Atom editor?

Go to "Packages" in atom editor.
Then in "Packages" view choose "Settings View".
Choose "Install Packages/Themes".
Search for "Atom Beautify" and install it.

Truncate all tables in a MySQL database in one command?

I am not sure but I think there is one command using which you can copy the schema of database into new database, once you have done this you can delete the old database and after this you can again copy the database schema to the old name.

IF a cell contains a string

SEARCH does not return 0 if there is no match, it returns #VALUE!. So you have to wrap calls to SEARCH with IFERROR.

For example...

=IF(IFERROR(SEARCH("cat", A1), 0), "cat", "none")

=IF(IFERROR(SEARCH("cat",A1),0),"cat",IF(IFERROR(SEARCH("22",A1),0),"22","none"))

Here, IFERROR returns the value from SEARCH when it works; the given value of 0 otherwise.

Laravel 5.1 API Enable Cors

barryvdh/laravel-cors works perfectly with Laravel 5.1 with just a few key points in enabling it.

After adding it as a composer dependency, make sure you have published the CORS config file and adjusted the CORS headers as you want them. Here is how mine look in app/config/cors.php

<?php

return [

    'supportsCredentials' => true,
    'allowedOrigins' => ['*'],
    'allowedHeaders' => ['*'],
    'allowedMethods' => ['GET', 'POST', 'PUT',  'DELETE'],
    'exposedHeaders' => ['DAV', 'content-length', 'Allow'],
    'maxAge' => 86400,
    'hosts' => [],
];

After this, there is one more step that's not mentioned in the documentation, you have to add the CORS handler 'Barryvdh\Cors\HandleCors' in the App kernel. I prefer to use it in the global middleware stack. Like this

/**
 * The application's global HTTP middleware stack.
 *
 * @var array
 */
protected $middleware = [
    'Illuminate\Foundation\Http\Middleware\CheckForMaintenanceMode',
    'Illuminate\Cookie\Middleware\EncryptCookies',
    'Illuminate\Cookie\Middleware\AddQueuedCookiesToResponse',
    'Illuminate\Session\Middleware\StartSession',
    'Illuminate\View\Middleware\ShareErrorsFromSession',

    'Barryvdh\Cors\HandleCors',

];

But its up to you to use it as a route middleware and place on specific routes.

This should make the package work with L5.1

3 column layout HTML/CSS

Something like this should do it:

.column-left{ float: left; width: 33.333%; }
.column-right{ float: right; width: 33.333%; }
.column-center{ display: inline-block; width: 33.333%; }

DEMO

EDIT

To do this with a larger number of columns you could build a very simple grid system. For example, something like this should work for a five column layout:

_x000D_

.column {_x000D_
    float: left;_x000D_
    position: relative;_x000D_
    width: 20%;_x000D_
  _x000D_
    /*for demo purposes only */_x000D_
    background: #f2f2f2;_x000D_

   <div class="column column-five">Column five</div>_x000D_

_x000D_

Or, if you are lucky enough to be able to support only modern browsers, you can use flexible boxes:

_x000D_

.container {_x000D_
    display: flex;_x000D_
}_x000D_
_x000D_
.column {_x000D_

    border: 1px solid #e6e6e6;_x000D_
    box-sizing: border-box;_x000D_
}_x000D_
_x000D_
.column-one {_x000D_
    order: 3;_x000D_

HTML button calling an MVC Controller and Action method

In case if you are getting an error as "unterminated string constant", use the following razor syntax :

<input type="button" onclick="@("location.href='"+ Url.Action("Index","Test")+ "'")" />

Android: ScrollView vs NestedScrollView

I think one Benefit of using Nested Scroll view is that the cooridinator layout only listens for nested scroll events. So if for ex. you want the toolbar to scroll down when you scroll you content of activity, it will only scroll down when you are using nested scroll view in your layout. If you use a normal scroll view in your layout, the toolbar wont scroll when the user scrolls the content.

What is the technology behind wechat, whatsapp and other messenger apps?

To my knowledge, Ejabberd (http://www.ejabberd.im/) is the parent, this is XMPP server which provide quite good features of open source, Whatsapp uses some modified version of this, facebook messaging also uses a modified version of this. Some more chat applications likes Samsung's ChatOn, Nimbuzz messenger all use ejabberd based ones and Erlang solutions also have modified version of this ejabberd which they claim to be highly scalable and well tested with more performance improvements and renamed as MongooseIM.

Ejabberd is the server which has most of the featured implemented when compared to other. Since it is build in Erlang it is highly scalable horizontally.

How do I dispatch_sync, dispatch_async, dispatch_after, etc in Swift 3, Swift 4, and beyond?

Since the beginning, Swift has provided some facilities for making ObjC and C more Swifty, adding more with each version. Now, in Swift 3, the new "import as member" feature lets frameworks with certain styles of C API -- where you have a data type that works sort of like a class, and a bunch of global functions to work with it -- act more like Swift-native APIs. The data types import as Swift classes, their related global functions import as methods and properties on those classes, and some related things like sets of constants can become subtypes where appropriate.

In Xcode 8 / Swift 3 beta, Apple has applied this feature (along with a few others) to make the Dispatch framework much more Swifty. (And Core Graphics, too.) If you've been following the Swift open-source efforts, this isn't news, but now is the first time it's part of Xcode.

Your first step on moving any project to Swift 3 should be to open it in Xcode 8 and choose Edit > Convert > To Current Swift Syntax... in the menu. This will apply (with your review and approval) all of the changes at once needed for all the renamed APIs and other changes. (Often, a line of code is affected by more than one of these changes at once, so responding to error fix-its individually might not handle everything right.)

The result is that the common pattern for bouncing work to the background and back now looks like this:

// Move to a background thread to do some long running work
DispatchQueue.global(qos: .userInitiated).async {
    let image = self.loadOrGenerateAnImage()
    // Bounce back to the main thread to update the UI
    DispatchQueue.main.async {
        self.imageView.image = image
    }
}

Note we're using .userInitiated instead of one of the old DISPATCH_QUEUE_PRIORITY constants. Quality of Service (QoS) specifiers were introduced in OS X 10.10 / iOS 8.0, providing a clearer way for the system to prioritize work and deprecating the old priority specifiers. See Apple's docs on background work and energy efficiency for details.

By the way, if you're keeping your own queues to organize work, the way to get one now looks like this (notice that DispatchQueueAttributes is an OptionSet, so you use collection-style literals to combine options):

class Foo { 
    let queue = DispatchQueue(label: "com.example.my-serial-queue",
                           attributes: [.serial, .qosUtility])
    func doStuff() {
        queue.async {
            print("Hello World")
        }
    }
}

Using dispatch_after to do work later? That's a method on queues, too, and it takes a DispatchTime, which has operators for various numeric types so you can just add whole or fractional seconds:

DispatchQueue.main.asyncAfter(deadline: .now() + 0.5) { // in half a second...
    print("Are we there yet?")
}

You can find your way around the new Dispatch API by opening its interface in Xcode 8 -- use Open Quickly to find the Dispatch module, or put a symbol (like DispatchQueue) in your Swift project/playground and command-click it, then brouse around the module from there. (You can find the Swift Dispatch API in Apple's spiffy new API Reference website and in-Xcode doc viewer, but it looks like the doc content from the C version hasn't moved into it just yet.)

See the Migration Guide for more tips.

Convert JSONArray to String Array

Was trying one of the same scenario but found one different and simple solution to convert JSONArray into List.

import java.lang.reflect.Type;
import com.google.gson.Gson;
import com.google.gson.reflect.TypeToken;

String jsonStringArray = "[\"JSON\",\"To\",\"Java\"]";                 
    
//creating Gson instance to convert JSON array to Java array
                   
    Gson converter = new Gson();                  
    Type type = new TypeToken<List<String>>(){}.getType();
    List<String> list =  converter.fromJson(jsonStringArray, type );

How to implement WiX installer upgrade?

I used this site to help me understand the basics about WiX Upgrade:

http://wix.tramontana.co.hu/tutorial/upgrades-and-modularization

Afterwards I created a sample Installer, (installed a test file), then created the Upgrade installer (installed 2 sample test files). This will give you a basic understanding of how the mechanism works.

And as Mike said in the book from Apress, "The Definitive Guide to Windows Installer", it will help you out to understand, but it is not written using WiX.

Another site that was pretty helpful was this one:

What's the "average" requests per second for a production web application?

When I go to the control panel of my webhost, open up phpMyAdmin, and click on "Show MySQL runtime information", I get:

This MySQL server has been running for 53 days, 15 hours, 28 minutes and 53 seconds. It started up on Oct 24, 2008 at 04:03 AM.
Query statistics: Since its startup, 3,444,378,344 queries have been sent to the server.
Total 3,444 M
per hour 2.68 M
per minute 44.59 k
per second 743.13

That's an average of 743 mySQL queries every single second for the past 53 days!

I don't know about you, but to me that's fast! Very fast!!

The most likely explanation is that either a file called 'pandas.py' is in the same directory as your script, or that another variable called 'pd' is used in your program.

Activate a virtualenv with a Python script

To run another Python environment according to the official Virtualenv documentation, in the command line you can specify the full path to the executable Python binary, just that (no need to active the virtualenv before):

/path/to/virtualenv/bin/python

The same applies if you want to invoke a script from the command line with your virtualenv. You don't need to activate it before:

me$ /path/to/virtualenv/bin/python myscript.py

The same for a Windows environment (whether it is from the command line or from a script):

> \path\to\env\Scripts\python.exe myscript.py

Lightweight workflow engine for Java

Java based workflow engines like Activiti, Bonita or jBPM support a wide range of the BPMN 2.0 specification. Therefore, you can model processes in a graphical way. In addition, some of those engines have simulation capabilities like Activiti (with Activiti Crystalball). If you code the processes on your own, you aren´t as flexible when you need to change the process. Therefore, I would also advice to use a java based BPM engine.

I did a research concerning BPMN 2.0 based Open Source Engines. Here are the key-points which were relevant for our concrete use case:

1. Bonita:

Bonita has a zero-coding approach which means that they provide an easy to use IDE to build your processes without the need for coding. To achieve that, Bonita has the concept of connectors. For example, if you want to consume a web service, they provide you with a graphical wizzard. The downside is that you have to write the plain XML SOAP-envelope manually and copy it in a graphical textbox. The problem with this approach is that you only can realize use cases which are intended by Bonita. If you want to integrate a system which Bonita did not developed a connector for, you have to code such a connector on your own which is very painful. For example, Bonita offers a SOAP connector for consuming SOAP web services. This connector only works with SOAP 1.2, but not for SOAP 1.1 (http://community.bonitasoft.com/answers/consume-soap-11-webservices-bonita-secure-web-service-connector). If you have a legacy application with SOAP 1.1, you cannot integrate this system easily in your process. The same is true for databases. There are only a few database connectors for dedicated database versions. If you have a version not matching to a connector, you have to code this on your own.

In addition, Bonita has no support for LDAP or Active Directory Sync in the free community edition which is quite a showstopper for a production environment. Another thing to consider is that Bonita is licensed under the GPL / LGPL license which could cause problems when you want to integrate Bonita in another enterprise application. In addition, the community support is very weak. There are several posts which are more than 2 years old and those posts are still not answered.

Another important thing is Business-IT-Alignment. Modelling processes is a collaborative discipline in which IT AND the business analysts are involed. That is why you need adequate tools for both user groups (e.g. an Eclipse Plugin for the developers and an easy to use web modeler for the business people). Bonita only offers Bonita Studio, which needs to be installed on your machine. This IDE is quite technical and not suitable for business users. Therefore, it is very hard to realize Business-IT-Alignment with Bonita.

Bonita is a BPM tool for very trivial and easy processes. Because of the zero-coding approach, the lerning curve is very low and you can start modelling very fast. You need less programming skills and you are able to realize your processes without the need of coding. But as soon as your processes become very complex, Bonita might not be the best solution because of the lack of flexibility. You only can realize use cases which are intended by Bonita.

2. jBPM:

jBPM is a very powerful Open Source BPM Engine which has a lot of features. The web modeler even supports prefabricated models of some van der Aalst workflow patterns (workflowpatterns.com). Business-IT-Alignment is realizable because jBPM offers an Eclipse integration as well as a web-based modeler. A bit tricky is that you only can define forms in the web modeler, but not in the Eclipse Plugin, as far as I know. To sum up, jBPM is a good candidate for using in a company. Our showstopper was the scalability. jBPM is based on the Rules-Engine Drools. This leads to the fact that whole process instances are persisted as BLOBS in the database. This is a critial showstopper when you consider searching and scalability.

In addition, the learning curve is very high because of the complexity. jBPM does not offer a Service Task like the BPMN-Standard suggests In contrast, you have to define your own Java Service tasks and you have to register them manually in the engine, which results in quite low level programming.

3. Activiti:

In the end, we went with Activiti because this is a very easy to use framework-based engine. It offers an Eclipse Plugin as well as a modern AngularJS Web-Modeler. In this way, you can realize Business-IT-Alignment. The REST-API is secured by Spring Security which means that you can extend the Engine very easily with Single Sign-on features. Because of the Apache License 2.0, there is no copyleft which means you are completely free in terms of usage and extensibility which is very important in a productive environment.

In addition, the BPMN-coverage is very good. Not all BPMN-elements are realized, but I do not know any engine which does that.

The Activiti Explorer is a demo frontend which demonstrates the usage of the Activiti APIs. Since this frontend is based on VAADIN, it can be extended very easily. The community is very active which means that you can get help very fast if you have any problems.

Activiti offers good integration points for external form-technologies which is very important for a productive usage. The form-technologies of all candidates are very restrictive. Therefore, it makes sense to use a standard form-technology like XForms in combination with the Engine. Even such more complex things are realizable via the formKey-Attribute.

Activiti does not follow the zero-coding approach which means that you will need a bit of coding if you want to orchestrate services. But even the communication with SOAP services can be achieved by using a Java Service Task and Apache CXF. The coding effort is low.

I hope that my key points can help by taking a decision. To be clear, this is no advertisment for Activiti. The right product choice depends on the concrete use cases. I only want to point out the most important points in our project

How to push files to an emulator instance using Android Studio

refer johnml1135 answer, but not fully work.

after self investigate, work now:

as official say:

????

????????????????????? /sdcard/Download ???????? API ?????????????,?? API 22,?????:Settings > Device:Storage & USB > Internal Storage > Explore(?? SD ?)?

and use Drag and Drop actually worked, but use android self installed app Download, then you can NOT find the copied file, for not exist so called /sdcard/Download folder.

finally using other file manager app, like

ES File Explorer

then can see the really path is

/storage/emulated/0/Download/

which contains the copied files, like

/storage/emulated/0/Download/chenhongyu_lixiangsanxun.mp3

after drag and drop more mp3 files:

Colspan all columns

I have IE 7.0, Firefox 3.0 and Chrome 1.0

The colspan="0" attribute in a TD is NOT spanning across all TDs in any of the above browsers.

Maybe not recommended as proper markup practice, but if you give a higher colspan value than the total possible no. of columns in other rows, then the TD would span all the columns.

This does NOT work when the table-layout CSS property is set to fixed.

Once again, this is not the perfect solution but seems to work in the above mentioned 3 browser versions when the table-layout CSS property is automatic. Hope this helps.

Day Name from Date in JS

let weekday = ['Sun', 'Mon', 'Tue', 'Wed', 'Thu', 'Fri', 'Sat'][new Date().getDay()]

Validate that text field is numeric usiung jQuery

This should work. I would trim the whitespace from the input field first of all:

if($('#Field').val() != "") {
    var value = $('#Field').val().replace(/^\s\s*/, '').replace(/\s\s*$/, '');
    var intRegex = /^\d+$/;
    if(!intRegex.test(value)) {
        errors += "Field must be numeric.<br/>";
        success = false;
    }
} else {
    errors += "Field is blank.</br />";
    success = false;
}

javascript if number greater than number

You're comparing strings. JavaScript compares the ASCII code for each character of the string.

To see why you get false, look at the charCodes:

"1300".charCodeAt(0);
49
"999".charCodeAt(0);
57

The comparison is false because, when comparing the strings, the character codes for 1 is not greater than that of 9.

The fix is to treat the strings as numbers. You can use a number of methods:

parseInt(string, radix)
parseInt("1300", 10);
> 1300 - notice the lack of quotes


+"1300"
> 1300


Number("1300")
> 1300

jQuery $.ajax(), pass success data into separate function

this is how I do it

function run_ajax(obj) {
    $.ajax({
        type:"POST",
        url: prefix,
        data: obj.pdata,
        dataType: 'json',
        error: function(data) {
            //do error stuff
        },
        success: function(data) {

            if(obj.func){
                obj.func(data); 
            }

        }
    });
}

alert_func(data){
    //do what you want with data
}

var obj= {};
obj.pdata = {sumbit:"somevalue"}; // post variable data
obj.func = alert_func;
run_ajax(obj);

Creating a JSON dynamically with each input value using jquery

Like this:

function createJSON() {
    jsonObj = [];
    $("input[class=email]").each(function() {

        var id = $(this).attr("title");
        var email = $(this).val();

        item = {}
        item ["title"] = id;
        item ["email"] = email;

        jsonObj.push(item);
    });

    console.log(jsonObj);
}

Explanation

You are looking for an array of objects. So, you create a blank array. Create an object for each input by using 'title' and 'email' as keys. Then you add each of the objects to the array.

If you need a string, then do

jsonString = JSON.stringify(jsonObj);

Sample Output

[{"title":"QA","email":"a@b"},{"title":"PROD","email":"b@c"},{"title":"DEV","email":"c@d"}]

Foreign key constraints: When to use ON UPDATE and ON DELETE

You'll need to consider this in context of the application. In general, you should design an application, not a database (the database simply being part of the application).

Consider how your application should respond to various cases.

The default action is to restrict (i.e. not permit) the operation, which is normally what you want as it prevents stupid programming errors. However, on DELETE CASCADE can also be useful. It really depends on your application and how you intend to delete particular objects.

Personally, I'd use InnoDB because it doesn't trash your data (c.f. MyISAM, which does), rather than because it has FK constraints.

Jquery DatePicker Set default date

Today date:

$( ".selector" ).datepicker( "setDate", new Date());
// Or on the init
$( ".selector" ).datepicker({ defaultDate: new Date() });

15 days from today:

$( ".selector" ).datepicker( "setDate", 15);
// Or on the init
$( ".selector" ).datepicker({ defaultDate: 15 });

Converting data frame column from character to numeric

If we need only one column to be numeric

yyz$b <- as.numeric(as.character(yyz$b))

But, if all the columns needs to changed to numeric, use lapply to loop over the columns and convert to numeric by first converting it to character class as the columns were factor.

yyz[] <- lapply(yyz, function(x) as.numeric(as.character(x)))

Both the columns in the OP's post are factor because of the string "n/a". This could be easily avoided while reading the file using na.strings = "n/a" in the read.table/read.csv or if we are using data.frame, we can have character columns with stringsAsFactors=FALSE (the default is stringsAsFactors=TRUE)

Regarding the usage of apply, it converts the dataset to matrix and matrix can hold only a single class. To check the class, we need

lapply(yyz, class)

sapply(yyz, class)

Or check

str(yyz)

Unity 2d jumping script

The answer above is now obsolete with Unity 5 or newer. Use this instead!

GetComponent<Rigidbody2D>().AddForce(new Vector2(0,10), ForceMode2D.Impulse);

I also want to add that this leaves the jump height super private and only editable in the script, so this is what I did...

    public float playerSpeed;  //allows us to be able to change speed in Unity
public Vector2 jumpHeight;

// Use this for initialization
void Start () {

}
// Update is called once per frame
void Update ()
{
    transform.Translate(playerSpeed * Time.deltaTime, 0f, 0f);  //makes player run

    if (Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0) || Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.Space))  //makes player jump
    {
        GetComponent<Rigidbody2D>().AddForce(jumpHeight, ForceMode2D.Impulse);

This makes it to where you can edit the jump height in Unity itself without having to go back to the script.

Side note - I wanted to comment on the answer above, but I can't because I'm new here. :)

Unable to run Java code with Intellij IDEA

My classes contained a main() method yet I was unable to see the Run option. That option was enabled once I marked a folder containing my class files as a source folder:

Right click the folder containing your source
Select Mark Directory as → Test Source Root

Some of the classes in my folder don't have a main() method, but I still see a Run option for those.

Laravel: Using try...catch with DB::transaction()

You could wrapping the transaction over try..catch or even reverse them, here my example code I used to in laravel 5,, if you look deep inside DB:transaction() in Illuminate\Database\Connection that the same like you write manual transaction.

Laravel Transaction

public function transaction(Closure $callback)
    {
        $this->beginTransaction();

        try {
            $result = $callback($this);

            $this->commit();
        }

        catch (Exception $e) {
            $this->rollBack();

            throw $e;
        } catch (Throwable $e) {
            $this->rollBack();

            throw $e;
        }

        return $result;
    }

so you could write your code like this, and handle your exception like throw message back into your form via flash or redirect to another page. REMEMBER return inside closure is returned in transaction() so if you return redirect()->back() it won't redirect immediately, because the it returned at variable which handle the transaction.

Wrap Transaction

$result = DB::transaction(function () use ($request, $message) {
   try{

      // execute query 1
      // execute query 2
      // ..

      return redirect(route('account.article'));

   } catch (\Exception $e) {
       return redirect()->back()->withErrors(['error' => $e->getMessage()]);
    }
 });

// redirect the page
return $result;

then the alternative is throw boolean variable and handle redirect outside transaction function or if your need to retrieve why transaction failed you can get it from $e->getMessage() inside catch(Exception $e){...}

Div Background Image Z-Index Issue

To solve the issue, you are using the z-index on the footer and header, but you forgot about the position, if a z-index is to be used, the element must have a position:

Add to your footer and header this CSS:

position: relative;

EDITED:

Also noticed that the background image on the #backstretch has a negative z-index, don't use that, some browsers get really weird...

Remove From the #backstretch:

z-index: -999999;

Read a little bit about Z-Index here!

powerpoint loop a series of animation

Unfortunately you're probably done with the animation and presentation already. In the hopes this answer can help future questioners, however, this blog post has a walkthrough of steps that can loop a single slide as a sort of sub-presentation.

First, click Slide Show > Set Up Show.

Put a checkmark to Loop continuously until 'Esc'.

Click Ok. Now, Click Slide Show > Custom Shows. Click New.

Select the slide you are looping, click Add. Click Ok and Close.

Click on the slide you are looping. Click Slide Show > Slide Transition. Under Advance slide, put a checkmark to Automatically After. This will allow the slide to loop automatically. Do NOT Apply to all slides.

Right click on the thumbnail of the current slide, select Hide Slide.

Now, you will need to insert a new slide just before the slide you are looping. On the new slide, insert an action button. Set the hyperlink to the custom show you have created. Put a checkmark on "Show and Return"

This has worked for me.
