Oracle PL/SQL : remove "space characters" from a string

To replace one or more white space characters by a single blank you should use {2,} instead of *, otherwise you would insert a blank between all non-blank characters.

REGEXP_REPLACE( my_value, '[[:space:]]{2,}', ' ' )

How to call a javaScript Function in jsp on page load without using <body onload="disableView()">

Either use window.onload this way

<script>
    window.onload = function() {
        // ...
    }
</script>

or alternatively

<script>
    window.onload = functionName;
</script>

(yes, without the parentheses)

Or just put the script at the very bottom of page, right before </body>. At that point, all HTML DOM elements are ready to be accessed by document functions.

<body>
    ...

    <script>
        functionName();
    </script>
</body>

How to format a float in javascript?

function trimNumber(num, len) {
  const modulu_one = 1;
  const start_numbers_float=2;
  var int_part = Math.trunc(num);
  var float_part = String(num % modulu_one);
      float_part = float_part.slice(start_numbers_float, start_numbers_float+len);
  return int_part+'.'+float_part;
}

Converting a string to int in Groovy

Well, Groovy accepts the Java form just fine. If you are asking if there is a Groovier way, there is a way to go to Integer.

Both are shown here:

String s = "99"
assert 99 == Integer.parseInt(s)
Integer i = s as Integer
assert 99 == i

How to return a PNG image from Jersey REST service method to the browser

I'm not convinced its a good idea to return image data in a REST service. It ties up your application server's memory and IO bandwidth. Much better to delegate that task to a proper web server that is optimized for this kind of transfer. You can accomplish this by sending a redirect to the image resource (as a HTTP 302 response with the URI of the image). This assumes of course that your images are arranged as web content.

Having said that, if you decide you really need to transfer image data from a web service you can do so with the following (pseudo) code:

@Path("/whatever")
@Produces("image/png")
public Response getFullImage(...) {

    BufferedImage image = ...;

    ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
    ImageIO.write(image, "png", baos);
    byte[] imageData = baos.toByteArray();

    // uncomment line below to send non-streamed
    // return Response.ok(imageData).build();

    // uncomment line below to send streamed
    // return Response.ok(new ByteArrayInputStream(imageData)).build();
}

Add in exception handling, etc etc.

When to use 'raise NotImplementedError'?

One could also do a raise NotImplementedError() inside the child method of an @abstractmethod-decorated base class method.

Imagine writing a control script for a family of measurement modules (physical devices). The functionality of each module is narrowly-defined, implementing just one dedicated function: one could be an array of relays, another a multi-channel DAC or ADC, another an ammeter etc.

Much of the low-level commands in use would be shared between the modules for example to read their ID numbers or to send a command to them. Let's see what we have at this point:

Base Class

from abc import ABC, abstractmethod  #< we'll make use of these later

class Generic(ABC):
    ''' Base class for all measurement modules. '''

    # Shared functions
    def __init__(self):
        # do what you must...

    def _read_ID(self):
        # same for all the modules

    def _send_command(self, value):
        # same for all the modules

Shared Verbs

We then realise that much of the module-specific command verbs and, therefore, the logic of their interfaces is also shared. Here are 3 different verbs whose meaning would be self-explanatory considering a number of target modules.

get(channel)
relay: get the on/off status of the relay on channel
DAC: get the output voltage on channel
ADC: get the input voltage on channel
enable(channel)
relay: enable the use of the relay on channel
DAC: enable the use of the output channel on channel
ADC: enable the use of the input channel on channel
set(channel)
relay: set the relay on channel on/off
DAC: set the output voltage on channel
ADC: hmm... nothing logical comes to mind.

Shared Verbs Become Enforced Verbs

I'd argue that there is a strong case for the above verbs to be shared across the modules as we saw that their meaning is evident for each one of them. I'd continue writing my base class Generic like so:

class Generic(ABC):  # ...continued
    
    @abstractmethod
    def get(self, channel):
        pass

    @abstractmethod
    def enable(self, channel):
        pass

    @abstractmethod
    def set(self, channel):
        pass

Subclasses

We now know that our subclasses will all have to define these methods. Let's see what it could look like for the ADC module:

class ADC(Generic):

    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__()  #< applies to all modules
        # more init code specific to the ADC module
    
    def get(self, channel):
        # returns the input voltage measured on the given 'channel'

    def enable(self, channel):
        # enables accessing the given 'channel'

You may now be wondering:

But this won't work for the ADC module as set makes no sense there as we've just seen this above!

You're right: not implementing set is not an option as Python would then fire the error below when you tried to instantiate your ADC object.

TypeError: Can't instantiate abstract class 'ADC' with abstract methods 'set'

So you must implement something, because we made set an enforced verb (aka '@abstractmethod'), which is shared by two other modules but, at the same time, you must also not implement anything as set does not make sense for this particular module.

NotImplementedError to the Rescue

By completing the ADC class like this:

class ADC(Generic): # ...continued

    def set(self, channel):
        raise NotImplementedError("Can't use 'set' on an ADC!")

You are doing three very good things at once:

You are protecting a user from erroneously issuing a command ('set') that is not (and shouldn't!) be implemented for this module.
You are telling them explicitly what the problem is (see TemporalWolf's link about 'Bare exceptions' for why this is important)
You are protecting the implementation of all the other modules for which the enforced verbs do make sense. I.e. you ensure that those modules for which these verbs do make sense will implement these methods and that they will do so using exactly these verbs and not some other ad-hoc names.

How to correctly write async method?

You are calling DoDownloadAsync() but you don't wait it. So your program going to the next line. But there is another problem, Async methods should return Task or Task<T>, if you return nothing and you want your method will be run asyncronously you should define your method like this:

private static async Task DoDownloadAsync()     {         WebClient w = new WebClient();          string txt = await w.DownloadStringTaskAsync("http://www.google.com/");         Debug.WriteLine(txt);     }

And in Main method you can't await for DoDownloadAsync, because you can't use await keyword in non-async function, and you can't make Main async. So consider this:

var result = DoDownloadAsync();  Debug.WriteLine("DoDownload done"); result.Wait();

Can I update a component's props in React.js?

A component cannot update its own props unless they are arrays or objects (having a component update its own props even if possible is an anti-pattern), but can update its state and the props of its children.

For instance, a Dashboard has a speed field in its state, and passes it to a Gauge child thats displays this speed. Its render method is just return <Gauge speed={this.state.speed} />. When the Dashboard calls this.setState({speed: this.state.speed + 1}), the Gauge is re-rendered with the new value for speed.

Just before this happens, Gauge's componentWillReceiveProps is called, so that the Gauge has a chance to compare the new value to the old one.

How to send data with angularjs $http.delete() request?

A many to many relationship normally has a linking table. Consider this "link" as an entity in its own right and give it a unique id, then send that id in the delete request.

You would have a a REST resource URL like /user/role to handle operations on a user-role "link" entity.

How to know/change current directory in Python shell?

You can try this:

current_dir = os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__))   # Can also use os.getcwd()
print(current_dir)                                         # prints(say)- D:\abc\def\ghi\jkl\mno"
new_dir = os.chdir('..\\..\\..\\')                         
print(new_dir)                                             # prints "D:\abc\def\ghi"

I want to vertical-align text in select box

I found that only adding padding-top pushed down the grey dropdown arrow box on the right, which was undesirable.

The method that worked for me was to go into the inspector and incrementally add padding until the text was centered. This will also reduce the size of the dropdown icon, but it will be centered as well so it isn't as visually disturbing.

Hide/Show Column in an HTML Table

you could use colgroups:

<table>
    <colgroup>
       <col class="visible_class"/>
       <col class="visible_class"/>
       <col class="invisible_class"/>  
    </colgroup>
    <thead>
        <tr><th class="col1">Header 1</th><th class="col2">Header 2</th><th class="col3">Header 3</th></tr>
    </thead>
    <tr><td>Column1</td><td>Column2</td><td>Column3</td></tr>
    <tr><td>Column1</td><td>Column2</td><td>Column3</td></tr>
    <tr><td>Column1</td><td>Column2</td><td>Column3</td></tr>
    <tr><td>Column1</td><td>Column2</td><td>Column3</td></tr>
</table>

your script then could change just the desire <col> class.

How to mock static methods in c# using MOQ framework?

Moq cannot mock a static member of a class.

When designing code for testability it's important to avoid static members (and singletons). A design pattern that can help you refactoring your code for testability is Dependency Injection.

This means changing this:

public class Foo
{
    public Foo()
    {
        Bar = new Bar();
    }
}

public Foo(IBar bar)
{
    Bar = bar;
}

This allows you to use a mock from your unit tests. In production you use a Dependency Injection tool like Ninject or Unity wich can wire everything together.

I wrote a blog about this some time ago. It explains which patterns an be used for better testable code. Maybe it can help you: Unit Testing, hell or heaven?

Another solution could be to use the Microsoft Fakes Framework. This is not a replacement for writing good designed testable code but it can help you out. The Fakes framework allows you to mock static members and replace them at runtime with your own custom behavior.

JSON Array iteration in Android/Java

When I tried @vipw's suggestion, I was faced with this exception: The method getJSONObject(int) is undefined for the type JSONArray

This worked for me instead:

int myJsonArraySize = myJsonArray.size();

for (int i = 0; i < myJsonArraySize; i++) {
    JSONObject myJsonObject = (JSONObject) myJsonArray.get(i);

    // Do whatever you have to do to myJsonObject...
}

Downloading MySQL dump from command line

If you have the database named archiedb, use this:

mysql -p <password for the database> --databases archiedb > /home/database_backup.sql

Assuming this is Linux, choose where the backup file will be saved.

Linux error while loading shared libraries: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

All I had to do was run:

sudo apt-get install libfontconfig1

I was in the folder located at /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu and it worked perfectly.

File changed listener in Java

I've written a log file monitor before, and I found that the impact on system performance of polling the attributes of a single file, a few times a second, is actually very small.

Java 7, as part of NIO.2 has added the WatchService API

The WatchService API is designed for applications that need to be notified about file change events.

PDO with INSERT INTO through prepared statements

Thanks to Novocaine88's answer to use a try catch loop I have successfully received an error message when I caused one.

    <?php
    $dbhost = "localhost";
    $dbname = "pdo";
    $dbusername = "root";
    $dbpassword = "845625";

    $link = new PDO("mysql:host=$dbhost;dbname=$dbname", $dbusername, $dbpassword);
    $link->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE, PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION);

    try {
        $statement = $link->prepare("INERT INTO testtable(name, lastname, age)
            VALUES(?,?,?)");

        $statement->execute(array("Bob","Desaunois",18));
    } catch(PDOException $e) {
        echo $e->getMessage();
    }
    ?>

In the following code instead of INSERT INTO it says INERT.

this is the error I got.

SQLSTATE[42000]: Syntax error or access violation: 1064 You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MariaDB server version for the right syntax to use near 'INERT INTO testtable(name, lastname, age) VALUES('Bob','Desaunoi' at line 1

When I "fix" the issue, it works as it should. Thanks alot everyone!

How do you install GLUT and OpenGL in Visual Studio 2012?

Yes visual studio 2012 express has built in opengl library. the headers are in the folder C:\Program Files\Windows Kits\8.0\Include\um\gl and the lib files are in folder C:\Program Files\Windows Kits\8.0\Lib\win8\um\x86 & C:\Program Files\Windows Kits\8.0\Lib\win8\um\x64. but the problem is integrating the glut with the existing one.. i downloaded the library from http://www.xmission.com/~nate/glut/glut-3.7.6-bin.zip.. and deployed the files into .....\gl and ....\lib\win8\um\x32 and the dll to %system%/windows folders respectively.. Hope so this will solve the problem...

DateTime format to SQL format using C#

Let's use the built in SqlDateTime class

new SqlDateTime(DateTime.Now).ToSqlString()

But still need to check for null values. This will throw overflow exception

new SqlDateTime(DateTime.MinValue).ToSqlString()

SqlDateTime overflow. Must be between 1/1/1753 12:00:00 AM and 12/31/9999 11:59:59 PM.

For cut: Place cursor on starting of block and press ma and then goto end of block and press d'a. This will select the block to paste it press p

How to calculate combination and permutation in R?

It might be that the package "Combinations" is not updated anymore and does not work with a recent version of R (I was also unable to install it on R 2.13.1 on windows). The package "combinat" installs without problem for me and might be a solution for you depending on what exactly you're trying to do.

jQuery attr() change img src

You remove the original image here:

newImg.animate(css, SPEED, function() {
    img.remove();
    newImg.removeClass('morpher');
    (callback || function() {})();
});

And all that's left behind is newImg. Then you reset link references the image using #rocket:

$("#rocket").attr('src', ...

But your newImg doesn't have an id attribute let alone an id of rocket.

To fix this, you need to remove img and then set the id attribute of newImg to rocket:

newImg.animate(css, SPEED, function() {
    var old_id = img.attr('id');
    img.remove();
    newImg.attr('id', old_id);
    newImg.removeClass('morpher');
    (callback || function() {})();
});

And then you'll get the shiny black rocket back again: http://jsfiddle.net/ambiguous/W2K9D/

UPDATE: A better approach (as noted by mellamokb) would be to hide the original image and then show it again when you hit the reset button. First, change the reset action to something like this:

$("#resetlink").click(function(){
    clearInterval(timerRocket);
    $("#wrapper").css('top', '250px');
    $('.throbber, .morpher').remove(); // Clear out the new stuff.
    $("#rocket").show();               // Bring the original back.
});

And in the newImg.load function, grab the images original size:

var orig = {
    width: img.width(),
    height: img.height()
};

And finally, the callback for finishing the morphing animation becomes this:

newImg.animate(css, SPEED, function() {
    img.css(orig).hide();
    (callback || function() {})();
});

New and improved: http://jsfiddle.net/ambiguous/W2K9D/1/

The leaking of $('.throbber, .morpher') outside the plugin isn't the best thing ever but it isn't a big deal as long as it is documented.

Pythonically add header to a csv file

You just add one additional row before you execute the loop. This row contains your CSV file header name.

schema = ['a','b','c','b']
row = 4
generators = ['A','B','C','D']
with open('test.csv','wb') as csvfile:    
     writer = csv.writer(csvfile, delimiter=delimiter)
# Gives the header name row into csv
     writer.writerow([g for g in schema])   
#Data add in csv file       
     for x in xrange(rows):
         writer.writerow([g() for g in generators])

how to add values to an array of objects dynamically in javascript?

You have to instantiate the object first. The simplest way is:

var lab =["1","2","3"];
var val = [42,55,51,22];
var data = [];
for(var i=0; i<4; i++)  {
    data.push({label: lab[i], value: val[i]});
}

Or an other, less concise way, but closer to your original code:

for(var i=0; i<4; i++)  {
   data[i] = {};              // creates a new object
   data[i].label = lab[i];
   data[i].value = val[i];    
}

array() will not create a new array (unless you defined that function). Either Array() or new Array() or just [].

I recommend to read the MDN JavaScript Guide.

How do I verify/check/test/validate my SSH passphrase?

ssh-keygen -y

ssh-keygen -y will prompt you for the passphrase (if there is one).

If you input the correct passphrase, it will show you the associated public key.
If you input the wrong passphrase, it will display load failed.
If the key has no passphrase, it will not prompt you for a passphrase and will immediately show you the associated public key.

e.g.,

Create a new public/private key pair, with or without a passphrase:

$ ssh-keygen -f /tmp/my_key
...

Now see if you can access the key pair:

$ ssh-keygen -y -f /tmp/my_key

Following is an extended example, showing output.

Create a new public/private key pair, with or without a passphrase:

$ ssh-keygen -f /tmp/my_key

How to get a list of installed Jenkins plugins with name and version pair

These days I use the same approach as the answer described by @Behe below instead, updated link: https://stackoverflow.com/a/35292719/3423146 (old link: https://stackoverflow.com/a/35292719/1597808)

You can use the API in combination with depth, XPath, and wrapper arguments.

The following will query the API of the pluginManager to list all plugins installed, but only to return their shortName and version attributes. You can of course retrieve additional fields by adding '|' to the end of the XPath parameter and specifying the pattern to identify the node.

wget http://<jenkins>/pluginManager/api/xml?depth=1&xpath=/*/*/shortName|/*/*/version&wrapper=plugins

The wrapper argument is required in this case, because it's returning more than one node as part of the result, both in that it is matching multiple fields with the XPath and multiple plugin nodes.

It's probably useful to use the following URL in a browser to see what information on the plugins is available and then decide what you want to limit using XPath:

http://<jenkins>/pluginManager/api/xml?depth=1

How can I get javascript to read from a .json file?

Instead of storing the data as pure JSON store it instead as a JavaScript Object Literal; E.g.

_x000D_

window.portalData = [_x000D_
  {_x000D_
    "kpi" : "NDAR",_x000D_
    "data": [15,152,2,45,0,2,0,16,88,0,174,0,30,63,0,0,0,0,448,4,0,139,1,7,12,0,211,37,182,154]_x000D_
  },_x000D_
  {_x000D_
     "kpi" : "NTI",_x000D_
     "data" : [195,299,31,32,438,12,0,6,136,31,71,5,40,40,96,46,4,49,106,127,43,366,23,36,7,34,196,105,30,77]_x000D_

  {_x000D_
     "kpi" : "BS",_x000D_
     "data" : [745,2129,1775,1089,517,720,2269,334,1436,517,3219,1167,2286,266,1813,509,1409,988,1511,972,730,2039,1067,1102,1270,1629,845,1292,1107,1800]_x000D_
  },_x000D_
  {_x000D_
     "kpi" : "SISS",_x000D_
     "data" :  [75,547,260,430,397,91,0,0,217,105,563,136,352,286,244,166,287,319,877,230,100,437,108,326,145,749,0,92,191,469]_x000D_
  },_x000D_
  {_x000D_
 "kpi" : "MID",_x000D_
 "data" : [6,17,14,8,13,7,4,6,8,5,72,15,6,3,1,13,17,32,9,3,25,21,7,49,23,10,13,18,36,9,12]_x000D_
  }_x000D_
];

_x000D_

You can then do the following in your HTML

<script src="server_data.js"> </script>


function getServerData(kpiCode)
{
    var elem = $(window.portalData).filter(function(idx){
        return window.portalData[idx].kpi == kpiCode;
     });

    return elem[0].data;
};

var defData = getServerData('NDAR');

Execute Python script via crontab

Put your script in a file foo.py starting with

#!/usr/bin/python

Then give execute permission to that script using

chmod a+x foo.py

and use the full path of your foo.py file in your crontab.

See documentation of execve(2) which is handling the shebang.

How to test code dependent on environment variables using JUnit?

This answer to the question How do I set environment variables from Java? provides a way to alter the (unmodifiable) Map in System.getenv(). So while it doesn't REALLY change the value of the OS environment variable, it can be used for unit testing as it does change what System.getenv will return.

Golang read request body

I could use the GetBody from Request package.

Look this comment in source code from request.go in net/http:

GetBody defines an optional func to return a new copy of Body. It is used for client requests when a redirect requires reading the body more than once. Use of GetBody still requires setting Body. For server requests it is unused."

GetBody func() (io.ReadCloser, error)

This way you can get the body request without make it empty.

Sample:

getBody := request.GetBody
copyBody, err := getBody()
if err != nil {
    // Do something return err
}
http.DefaultClient.Do(request)

How to initialize/instantiate a custom UIView class with a XIB file in Swift

Swift 3 Answer: In my case, I wanted to have an outlet in my custom class that I could modify:

class MyClassView: UIView {
    @IBOutlet weak var myLabel: UILabel!

    class func createMyClassView() -> MyClass {
        let myClassNib = UINib(nibName: "MyClass", bundle: nil)
        return myClassNib.instantiate(withOwner: nil, options: nil)[0] as! MyClassView
    }
}

When in the .xib, make sure that the Custom Class field is MyClassView. Don't bother with the File's Owner.

Also, make sure that you connect the outlet in MyClassView to the label:

To instantiate it:

let myClassView = MyClassView.createMyClassView()
myClassView.myLabel.text = "Hello World!"

Oracle SQL Developer: Failure - Test failed: The Network Adapter could not establish the connection?

Curiously, I was able to solve the same issue by doing the exact opposite move to svc's ! I had to :

1) replace the FQDN hostname in my tnsnames.ora / listener.ora files with localhost, and restart the listener service, and

2) two, I had to use "SYS as SYSDBA" as the username in the SQL Developer input textbox

to finally be able to have SQL Developer hook to my local instance.

Conditional Formatting using Excel VBA code

This will get you to an answer for your simple case, but can you expand on how you'll know which columns will need to be compared (B and C in this case) and what the initial range (A1:D5 in this case) will be? Then I can try to provide a more complete answer.

Sub setCondFormat()
    Range("B3").Select
    With Range("B3:H63")
        .FormatConditions.Add Type:=xlExpression, Formula1:= _
          "=IF($D3="""",FALSE,IF($F3>=$E3,TRUE,FALSE))"
        With .FormatConditions(.FormatConditions.Count)
            .SetFirstPriority
            With .Interior
                .PatternColorIndex = xlAutomatic
                .Color = 5287936
                .TintAndShade = 0
            End With
        End With
    End With
End Sub

Note: this is tested in Excel 2010.

How to get first two characters of a string in oracle query?

take a look here

SELECT SUBSTR('Take the first four characters', 1, 4) FIRST_FOUR FROM DUAL;

Java: Local variable mi defined in an enclosing scope must be final or effectively final

The error means you cannot use the local variable mi inside an inner class.

To use a variable inside an inner class you must declare it final. As long as mi is the counter of the loop and final variables cannot be assigned, you must create a workaround to get mi value in a final variable that can be accessed inside inner class:

final Integer innerMi = new Integer(mi);

So your code will be like this:

for (int mi=0; mi<colors.length; mi++){

    String pos = Character.toUpperCase(colors[mi].charAt(0)) + colors[mi].substring(1);
    JMenuItem Jmi =new JMenuItem(pos);
    Jmi.setIcon(new IconA(colors[mi]));

    // workaround:
    final Integer innerMi = new Integer(mi);

    Jmi.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
            @Override
            public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
                JMenuItem item = (JMenuItem) e.getSource();
                IconA icon = (IconA) item.getIcon();
                // HERE YOU USE THE FINAL innerMi variable and no errors!!!
                Color kolorIkony = getColour(colors[innerMi]); 
                textArea.setForeground(kolorIkony);
            }
        });

        mnForeground.add(Jmi);
    }
}

How to pass integer from one Activity to another?

In Activity A

private void startSwitcher() {
    int yourInt = 200;
    Intent myIntent = new Intent(A.this, B.class);
    intent.putExtra("yourIntName", yourInt);
    startActivity(myIntent);
}

in Activity B

int score = getIntent().getIntExtra("yourIntName", 0);

Printing an int list in a single line python3

If you write

You get this output: 1,2,3,4,5

Can anyone explain what JSONP is, in layman terms?

JSONP is a way of getting around the browser's same-origin policy. How? Like this:

The goal here is to make a request to otherdomain.com and alert the name in the response. Normally we'd make an AJAX request:

$.get('otherdomain.com', function (response) {
  var name = response.name;
  alert(name);
});

However, since the request is going out to a different domain, it won't work.

We can make the request using a <script> tag though. Both <script src="otherdomain.com"></script> and $.get('otherdomain.com') will result in the same request being made:

GET otherdomain.com

Q: But if we use the <script> tag, how could we access the response? We need to access it if we want to alert it.

A: Uh, we can't. But here's what we could do - define a function that uses the response, and then tell the server to respond with JavaScript that calls our function with the response as its argument.

Q: But what if the server won't do this for us, and is only willing to return JSON to us?

A: Then we won't be able to use it. JSONP requires the server to cooperate.

Q: Having to use a <script> tag is ugly.

A: Libraries like jQuery make it nicer. Ex:

$.ajax({
    url: "http://otherdomain.com",
    jsonp: "callback",
    dataType: "jsonp",
    success: function( response ) {
        console.log( response );
    }
});

It works by dynamically creating the <script> tag DOM element.

Q: <script> tags only make GET requests - what if we want to make a POST request?

A: Then JSONP won't work for us.

Q: That's ok, I just want to make a GET request. JSONP is awesome and I'm going to go use it - thanks!

A: Actually, it isn't that awesome. It's really just a hack. And it isn't the safest thing to use. Now that CORS is available, you should use it whenever possible.

Easy way to convert a unicode list to a list containing python strings?

Where does Jenkins store configuration files for the jobs it runs?

Jenkins stores some of the related builds data like the following:

The working directory is stored in the directory {JENKINS_HOME}/workspace/.
- Each job store its related temporal workspace folder in the directory {JENKINS_HOME}/workspace/{JOBNAME}
The configuration for all jobs stored in the directory {JENKINS_HOME}/jobs/.
- Each job store its related builds data in the directory {JENKINS_HOME}/jobs/{JOBNAME}
- Each job folder contains:
  - The job configuration file is {JENKINS_HOME}/jobs/{JOBNAME}/config.xml
  - The job builds are stored in {JENKINS_HOME}/jobs/{JOBNAME}/builds/

See the Jenkins documentation for a visual representation and further details.

JENKINS_HOME
 +- config.xml     (jenkins root configuration)
 +- *.xml          (other site-wide configuration files)
 +- userContent    (files in this directory will be served under your http://server/userContent/)
 +- fingerprints   (stores fingerprint records)
 +- nodes          (slave configurations)
 +- plugins        (stores plugins)
 +- secrets        (secretes needed when migrating credentials to other servers)
 +- workspace (working directory for the version control system)
     +- [JOBNAME] (sub directory for each job)
 +- jobs
     +- [JOBNAME]      (sub directory for each job)
         +- config.xml     (job configuration file)
         +- latest         (symbolic link to the last successful build)
         +- builds
             +- [BUILD_ID]     (for each build)
                 +- build.xml      (build result summary)
                 +- log            (log file)
                 +- changelog.xml  (change log)

Get element from within an iFrame

You can use this function to query for any element on the page, regardless of if it is nested inside of an iframe (or many iframes):

function querySelectorAllInIframes(selector) {
  let elements = [];

  const recurse = (contentWindow = window) => {

    const iframes = contentWindow.document.body.querySelectorAll('iframe');
    iframes.forEach(iframe => recurse(iframe.contentWindow));
    
    elements = elements.concat(contentWindow.document.body.querySelectorAll(selector));
  }

  recurse();

  return elements;
};

querySelectorAllInIframes('#elementToBeFound');

Note: Keep in mind that each of the iframes on the page will need to be of the same-origin, or this function will throw an error.

drop down list value in asp.net

Python class returning value

the worked proposition for me is __call__ on class who create list of little numbers:

import itertools
    
class SmallNumbers:
    def __init__(self, how_much):
        self.how_much = int(how_much)
        self.work_list = ['0', '1', '2', '3', '4', '5', '6', '7', '8', '9']
        self.generated_list = ['0', '1', '2', '3', '4', '5', '6', '7', '8', '9']
        start = 10
        end = 100
        for cmb in range(2, len(str(self.how_much)) + 1):
            self.ListOfCombinations(is_upper_then=start, is_under_then=end, combinations=cmb)
            start *= 10
            end *= 10

    def __call__(self, number, *args, **kwargs):
        return self.generated_list[number]

    def ListOfCombinations(self, is_upper_then, is_under_then, combinations):
        multi_work_list = eval(str('self.work_list,') * combinations)
        nbr = 0
        for subset in itertools.product(*multi_work_list):
            if is_upper_then <= nbr < is_under_then:
                self.generated_list.append(''.join(subset))
                if self.how_much == nbr:
                    break
            nbr += 1

and to run it:

if __name__ == '__main__':
        sm = SmallNumbers(56)
        print(sm.generated_list)
        print(sm.generated_list[34], sm.generated_list[27], sm.generated_list[10])
        print('The Best', sm(15), sm(55), sm(49), sm(0))

result

Use Fieldset Legend with bootstrap

Just wanted to summarize all the correct answers above in short. Because I had to spend lot of time to figure out which answer resolves the issue and what's going on behind the scenes.

There seems to be two problems of fieldset with bootstrap:

The bootstrap sets the width to the legend as 100%. That is why it overlays the top border of the fieldset.
There's a bottom border for the legend.

So, all we need to fix this is set the legend width to auto as follows:

legend.scheduler-border {
   width: auto; // fixes the problem 1
   border-bottom: none; // fixes the problem 2
}

Permission denied on accessing host directory in Docker

From access.redhat.com:Sharing_Data_Across_Containers:

Host volume settings are not portable, since they are host-dependent and might not work on any other machine. For this reason, there is no Dockerfile equivalent for mounting host directories to the container. Also, be aware that the host system has no knowledge of container SELinux policy. Therefore, if SELinux policy is enforced, the mounted host directory is not writable to the container, regardless of the rw setting. Currently, you can work around this by assigning the proper SELinux policy type to the host directory":

chcon -Rt svirt_sandbox_file_t host_dir

Where host_dir is a path to the directory on host system that is mounted to the container.

It's seems to be only a workaround, but I tried and it works.

Android Service Stops When App Is Closed

This may help you. I may be mistaken but it seems to me that this is related with returning START_STICKY in your onStartCommand() method. You can avoid the service from being called again by returning START_NOT_STICKY instead.

How to apply a patch generated with git format-patch?

If you're using a JetBrains IDE (like IntelliJ IDEA, Android Studio, PyCharm), you can drag the patch file and drop it inside the IDE, and a dialog will appear, showing the patch's content. All you have to do now is to click "Apply patch", and a commit will be created.

Automatically start forever (node) on system restart

I tried lots of the above answers. None of them worked for me. My app is installed in /home and as user, not as root. This probably means that when the above mentioned start scripts run, /home is not mounted yet, so the app is not started.

Then I found these instructions by Digital Ocean:

https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-use-pm2-to-setup-a-node-js-production-environment-on-an-ubuntu-vps

Using PM2 as explained was very simple and works perfectly: My virtual servers had two physical crashes since - downtime was only about a minute.

How to get the user input in Java?

You can get the user input using Scanner. You can use the proper input validation using proper methods for different data types like next() for String or nextInt() for Integer.

import java.util.Scanner;

Scanner scanner = new Scanner(System.in);

//reads the input until it reaches the space
System.out.println("Enter a string: ");
String str = scanner.next();
System.out.println("str = " + str);

//reads until the end of line
String aLine = scanner.nextLine();

//reads the integer
System.out.println("Enter an integer num: ");
int num = scanner.nextInt();
System.out.println("num = " + num);

//reads the double value
System.out.println("Enter a double: ");
double aDouble = scanner.nextDouble();
System.out.println("double = " + aDouble);


//reads the float value, long value, boolean value, byte and short
double aFloat = scanner.nextFloat();
long aLong = scanner.nextLong();
boolean aBoolean = scanner.nextBoolean();
byte aByte = scanner.nextByte();
short aShort = scanner.nextShort();

scanner.close();

Appending pandas dataframes generated in a for loop

Use pd.concat to merge a list of DataFrame into a single big DataFrame.

appended_data = []
for infile in glob.glob("*.xlsx"):
    data = pandas.read_excel(infile)
    # store DataFrame in list
    appended_data.append(data)
# see pd.concat documentation for more info
appended_data = pd.concat(appended_data)
# write DataFrame to an excel sheet 
appended_data.to_excel('appended.xlsx')

MVC Razor Hidden input and passing values

As you may have already figured, Asp.Net MVC is a different paradigm than Asp.Net (webforms). Accessing form elements between the server and client take a different approach in Asp.Net MVC.

You can google more reading material on this on the web. For now, I would suggest using Ajax to get or post data to the server. You can still employ input type="hidden", but initialize it with a value from the ViewData or for Razor, ViewBag.

For example, your controller may look like this:

public ActionResult Index()
{
     ViewBag.MyInitialValue = true;
     return View();
}

In your view, you can have an input elemet that is initialized by the value in your ViewBag:

<input type="hidden" name="myHiddenInput" id="myHiddenInput" value="@ViewBag.MyInitialValue" />

Then you can pass data between the client and server via ajax. For example, using jQuery:

$.get('GetMyNewValue?oldValue=' + $('#myHiddenInput').val(), function (e) {
   // blah
});

You can alternatively use $.ajax, $.getJSON, $.post depending on your requirement.

Moving from position A to position B slowly with animation

I don't understand why other answers are about relative coordinates change, not absolute like OP asked in title.

$("#Friends").animate( {top:
  "-=" + (parseInt($("#Friends").css("top")) - 100) + "px"
} );

If else embedding inside html

I recommend the following syntax for readability.

<? if ($condition): ?>
  <p>Content</p>
<? elseif ($other_condition): ?>
  <p>Other Content</p>
<? else: ?>
  <p>Default Content</p>
<? endif; ?>

Note, omitting php on the open tags does require that short_open_tags is enabled in your configuration, which is the default. The relevant curly-brace-free conditional syntax is always enabled and can be used regardless of this directive.

How can I grep for a string that begins with a dash/hyphen?

If you're using another utility that passes a single argument to grep, you can use:

'[-]X'

Using NSLog for debugging

type : BOOL DATA (YES/NO) OR(1/0)

BOOL dtBool = 0;

BOOL dtBool = NO;
NSLog(dtBool ? @"Yes" : @"No");

OUTPUT : NO

type : Long

long aLong = 2015;
NSLog(@"Display Long: %ld”, aLong);

OUTPUT : Display Long: 2015

long long veryLong = 20152015;
NSLog(@"Display very Long: %lld", veryLong);

OUTPUT : Display very Long: 20152015

type : String

NSString *aString = @"A string";
NSLog(@"Display string: %@", aString);

OUTPUT : Display String: a String

type : Float

float aFloat = 5.34245;
NSLog(@"Display Float: %F", aFloat);

OUTPUT : isplay Float: 5.342450

type : Integer

int aInteger = 3;    
NSLog(@"Display Integer: %i", aInteger);

OUTPUT : Display Integer: 3

NSLog(@"\nDisplay String: %@ \n\n Display Float: %f \n\n Display Integer: %i", aString, aFloat, aInteger);

OUTPUT : String: a String

Display Float: 5.342450

Display Integer: 3

Best way to store password in database

Background You never ... really ... need to know the user's password. You just want to verify an incoming user knows the password for an account.

Hash It: Store user passwords hashed (one-way encryption) via a strong hash function. A search for "c# encrypt passwords" gives a load of examples.

See the online SHA1 hash creator for an idea of what a hash function produces (But don't use SHA1 as a hash function, use something stronger such as SHA256).

Now, a hashed passwords means that you (and database thieves) shouldn't be able to reverse that hash back into the original password.

How to use it: But, you say, how do I use this mashed up password stored in the database?

When the user logs in, they'll hand you the username and the password (in its original text) You just use the same hash code to hash that typed-in password to get the stored version.

So, compare the two hashed passwords (database hash for username and the typed-in & hashed password). You can tell if "what they typed in" matched "what the original user entered for their password" by comparing their hashes.

Extra credit:

Question: If I had your database, then couldn't I just take a cracker like John the Ripper and start making hashes until I find matches to your stored, hashed passwords? (since users pick short, dictionary words anyway ... it should be easy)

Answer: Yes ... yes they can.

So, you should 'salt' your passwords. See the Wikipedia article on salt

See "How to hash data with salt" C# example (archived)

Div Height in Percentage

There is the semicolon missing (;) after the "50%"

but you should also notice that the percentage of your div is connected to the div that contains it.

for instance:

<div id="wrapper">
  <div class="container">
   adsf
  </div>
</div>

#wrapper {
  height:100px;
}
.container
{
  width:80%;
  height:50%;
  background-color:#eee;
}

here the height of your .container will be 50px. it will be 50% of the 100px from the wrapper div.

if you have:

adsf

#wrapper {
  height:400px;
}
.container
{
  width:80%;
  height:50%;
  background-color:#eee;
}

then you .container will be 200px. 50% of the wrapper.

So you may want to look at the divs "wrapping" your ".container"...

TypeScript error: Type 'void' is not assignable to type 'boolean'

Your code is passing a function as an argument to find. That function takes an element argument (of type Conversation) and returns void (meaning there is no return value). TypeScript describes this as (element: Conversation) => void'

What TypeScript is saying is that the find function doesn't expect to receive a function that takes a Conversation and returns void. It expects a function that takes a Conversations, a number and a Conversation array, and that this function should return a boolean.

So bottom line is that you either need to change your code to pass in the values to find correctly, or else you need to provide an overload to the definition of find in your definition file that accepts a Conversation and returns void.

How can I print using JQuery

How can I flush GPU memory using CUDA (physical reset is unavailable)

on macOS (/ OS X), if someone else is having trouble with the OS apparently leaking memory:

https://github.com/phvu/cuda-smi is useful for quickly checking free memory
Quitting applications seems to free the memory they use. Quit everything you don't need, or quit applications one-by-one to see how much memory they used.
If that doesn't cut it (quitting about 10 applications freed about 500MB / 15% for me), the biggest consumer by far is WindowServer. You can Force quit it, which will also kill all applications you have running and log you out. But it's a bit faster than a restart and got me back to 90% free memory on the cuda device.

Getting attribute of element in ng-click function in angularjs

Addition to the answer of Brett DeWoody: (which is updated now)

var dataValue = obj.srcElement.attributes.data.nodeValue;

Works fine in IE(9+) and Chrome, but Firefox does not know the srcElement property. I found:

var dataValue = obj.currentTarget.attributes.data.nodeValue;

Works in IE, Chrome and FF, I did not test Safari.

Recursive query in SQL Server

Try this:

;WITH CTE
AS
(
    SELECT DISTINCT
        M1.Product_ID Group_ID,
        M1.Product_ID
    FROM matches M1
        LEFT JOIN matches M2
            ON M1.Product_Id = M2.matching_Product_Id
    WHERE M2.matching_Product_Id IS NULL
    UNION ALL
    SELECT
        C.Group_ID,
        M.matching_Product_Id
    FROM CTE C
        JOIN matches M
            ON C.Product_ID = M.Product_ID
)
SELECT * FROM CTE ORDER BY Group_ID

You can use OPTION(MAXRECURSION n) to control recursion depth.

SQL FIDDLE DEMO

Reset C int array to zero : the fastest way?

memset (from <string.h>) is probably the fastest standard way, since it's usually a routine written directly in assembly and optimized by hand.

memset(myarray, 0, sizeof(myarray)); // for automatically-allocated arrays
memset(myarray, 0, N*sizeof(*myarray)); // for heap-allocated arrays, where N is the number of elements

By the way, in C++ the idiomatic way would be to use std::fill (from <algorithm>):

std::fill(myarray, myarray+N, 0);

which may be optimized automatically into a memset; I'm quite sure that it will work as fast as memset for ints, while it may perform slightly worse for smaller types if the optimizer isn't smart enough. Still, when in doubt, profile.

Installing R on Mac - Warning messages: Setting LC_CTYPE failed, using "C"

Hope this will work fine or use the other method

open(on mac): Utilities/Terminal copy and paste

defaults write org.R-project.R force.LANG en_US.UTF-8

and close both terminal and R and reopen R.

How to grep a string in a directory and all its subdirectories?

grep -r -e string directory

-r is for recursive; -e is optional but its argument specifies the regex to search for. Interestingly, POSIX grep is not required to support -r (or -R), but ~~I'm practically certain that System V grep did, so~~ in practice they (almost) all do. Some versions of grep support -R as well as (or conceivably instead of) -r; AFAICT, it means the same thing.

Django: Model Form "object has no attribute 'cleaned_data'"

At times, if we forget the

How do I script a "yes" response for installing programs?

You just need to put -y with the install command.

For example: yum install <package_to_install> -y

Java: Static vs inner class

Discussing nested classes...

The difference is that a nested class declaration that is also static can be instantiated outside of the enclosing class.

When you have a nested class declaration that is not static, Java won't let you instantiate it except via the enclosing class. The object created out of the inner class is linked to the object created from the outer class, so the inner class can reference the fields of the outer.

But if it's static, then the link does not exist, the outer fields cannot be accessed (except via an ordinary reference like any other object) and you can therefore instantiate the nested class by itself.

How do I draw a shadow under a UIView?

You can try this .... you can play with the values. The shadowRadius dictates the amount of blur. shadowOffset dictates where the shadow goes.

Swift 2.0

let radius: CGFloat = demoView.frame.width / 2.0 //change it to .height if you need spread for height
let shadowPath = UIBezierPath(rect: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 2.1 * radius, height: demoView.frame.height))
//Change 2.1 to amount of spread you need and for height replace the code for height

demoView.layer.cornerRadius = 2
demoView.layer.shadowColor = UIColor.blackColor().CGColor
demoView.layer.shadowOffset = CGSize(width: 0.5, height: 0.4)  //Here you control x and y
demoView.layer.shadowOpacity = 0.5
demoView.layer.shadowRadius = 5.0 //Here your control your blur
demoView.layer.masksToBounds =  false
demoView.layer.shadowPath = shadowPath.CGPath

Swift 3.0

let radius: CGFloat = demoView.frame.width / 2.0 //change it to .height if you need spread for height 
let shadowPath = UIBezierPath(rect: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 2.1 * radius, height: demoView.frame.height)) 
//Change 2.1 to amount of spread you need and for height replace the code for height

demoView.layer.cornerRadius = 2
demoView.layer.shadowColor = UIColor.black.cgColor
demoView.layer.shadowOffset = CGSize(width: 0.5, height: 0.4)  //Here you control x and y
demoView.layer.shadowOpacity = 0.5
demoView.layer.shadowRadius = 5.0 //Here your control your blur
demoView.layer.masksToBounds =  false
demoView.layer.shadowPath = shadowPath.cgPath

Example with spread

To create a basic shadow

    demoView.layer.cornerRadius = 2
    demoView.layer.shadowColor = UIColor.blackColor().CGColor
    demoView.layer.shadowOffset = CGSizeMake(0.5, 4.0); //Here your control your spread
    demoView.layer.shadowOpacity = 0.5 
    demoView.layer.shadowRadius = 5.0 //Here your control your blur

Swift how to sort array of custom objects by property value

[Updated for Swift 3 with sort(by:)] This, exploiting a trailing closure:

images.sorted { $0.fileID < $1.fileID }

where you use < or > depending on ASC or DESC, respectively. If you want to modify the images array, then use the following:

images.sort { $0.fileID < $1.fileID }

If you are going to do this repeatedly and prefer to define a function, one way is:

func sorterForFileIDASC(this:imageFile, that:imageFile) -> Bool {
  return this.fileID > that.fileID
}

and then use as:

images.sort(by: sorterForFileIDASC)

Parsing a CSV file using NodeJS

npm install csv

Sample CSV file You're going to need a CSV file to parse, so either you have one already, or you can copy the text below and paste it into a new file and call that file "mycsv.csv"

ABC, 123, Fudge
532, CWE, ICECREAM
8023, POOP, DOGS
441, CHEESE, CARMEL
221, ABC, HOUSE

Sample Code Reading and Parsing the CSV file

Create a new file, and insert the following code into it. Make sure to read through what is going on behind the scenes.

    var csv = require('csv'); 
    // loads the csv module referenced above.

    var obj = csv(); 
    // gets the csv module to access the required functionality

    function MyCSV(Fone, Ftwo, Fthree) {
        this.FieldOne = Fone;
        this.FieldTwo = Ftwo;
        this.FieldThree = Fthree;
    }; 
    // Define the MyCSV object with parameterized constructor, this will be used for storing the data read from the csv into an array of MyCSV. You will need to define each field as shown above.

    var MyData = []; 
    // MyData array will contain the data from the CSV file and it will be sent to the clients request over HTTP. 

    obj.from.path('../THEPATHINYOURPROJECT/TOTHE/csv_FILE_YOU_WANT_TO_LOAD.csv').to.array(function (data) {
        for (var index = 0; index < data.length; index++) {
            MyData.push(new MyCSV(data[index][0], data[index][1], data[index][2]));
        }
        console.log(MyData);
    });
    //Reads the CSV file from the path you specify, and the data is stored in the array we specified using callback function.  This function iterates through an array and each line from the CSV file will be pushed as a record to another array called MyData , and logs the data into the console to ensure it worked.

var http = require('http');
//Load the http module.

var server = http.createServer(function (req, resp) {
    resp.writeHead(200, { 'content-type': 'application/json' });
    resp.end(JSON.stringify(MyData));
});
// Create a webserver with a request listener callback.  This will write the response header with the content type as json, and end the response by sending the MyData array in JSON format.

server.listen(8080);

Things to be aware of in your app.js code
In lines 7 through 11, we define the function called 'MyCSV' and the field names.

If your CSV file has multiple columns make sure you define this correctly to match your file.

On line 17 we define the location of the CSV file of which we are loading.  Make sure you use the correct path here.

Start your App and Verify Functionality Open a console and type the following Command:

Node app 1 Node app You should see the following output in your console:

[  MYCSV { Fieldone: 'ABC', Fieldtwo: '123', Fieldthree: 'Fudge' },
   MYCSV { Fieldone: '532', Fieldtwo: 'CWE', Fieldthree: 'ICECREAM' },
   MYCSV { Fieldone: '8023', Fieldtwo: 'POOP', Fieldthree: 'DOGS' },
   MYCSV { Fieldone: '441', Fieldtwo: 'CHEESE', Fieldthree: 'CARMEL' },
   MYCSV { Fieldone: '221', Fieldtwo: 'ABC', Fieldthree: 'HOUSE' }, ]

1 [ MYCSV { Fieldone: 'ABC', Fieldtwo: '123', Fieldthree: 'Fudge' }, 2 MYCSV { Fieldone: '532', Fieldtwo: 'CWE', Fieldthree: 'ICECREAM' }, 3 MYCSV { Fieldone: '8023', Fieldtwo: 'POOP', Fieldthree: 'DOGS' }, 4 MYCSV { Fieldone: '441', Fieldtwo: 'CHEESE', Fieldthree: 'CARMEL' }, 5 MYCSV { Fieldone: '221', Fieldtwo: 'ABC', Fieldthree: 'HOUSE' }, ] Now you should open a web-browser and navigate to your server. You should see it output the data in JSON format.

Conclusion Using node.js and it's CSV module we can quickly and easily read and use data stored on the server and make it available to the client upon request

GCC dump preprocessor defines

The simple approach (gcc -dM -E - < /dev/null) works fine for gcc but fails for g++. Recently I required a test for a C++11/C++14 feature. Recommendations for their corresponding macro names are published at https://isocpp.org/std/standing-documents/sd-6-sg10-feature-test-recommendations. But:

g++ -dM -E - < /dev/null | fgrep __cpp_alias_templates

always fails, because it silently invokes the C-drivers (as if invoked by gcc). You can see this by comparing its output against that of gcc or by adding a g++-specific command line option like (-std=c++11) which emits the error message cc1: warning: command line option ‘-std=c++11’ is valid for C++/ObjC++ but not for C.

Because (the non C++) gcc will never support "Templates Aliases" (see http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2007/n2258.pdf) you must add the -x c++ option to force the invocation of the C++ compiler (Credits for using the -x c++ options instead of an empty dummy file go to yuyichao, see below):

g++ -dM -E -x c++ /dev/null | fgrep __cpp_alias_templates

There will be no output because g++ (revision 4.9.1, defaults to -std=gnu++98) does not enable C++11-features by default. To do so, use

g++ -dM -E -x c++ -std=c++11 /dev/null | fgrep __cpp_alias_templates

which finally yields

#define __cpp_alias_templates 200704

noting that g++ 4.9.1 does support "Templates Aliases" when invoked with -std=c++11.

How to remove line breaks (no characters!) from the string?

Ben's solution is acceptable, but str_replace() is by far faster than preg_replace()

$buffer = str_replace(array("\r", "\n"), '', $buffer);

How do you store Java objects in HttpSession?

You are not adding the object to the session, instead you are adding it to the request.
What you need is:

HttpSession session = request.getSession();
session.setAttribute("MySessionVariable", param);

In Servlets you have 4 scopes where you can store data.

Application
Session
Request
Page

Make sure you understand these. For more look here

Understanding Apache's access log

You seem to be using the combined log format.

LogFormat "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b \"%{Referer}i\" \"%{User-agent}i\"" combined

%h is the remote host (ie the client IP)
%l is the identity of the user determined by identd (not usually used since not reliable)
%u is the user name determined by HTTP authentication
%t is the time the request was received.
%r is the request line from the client. ("GET / HTTP/1.0")
%>s is the status code sent from the server to the client (200, 404 etc.)
%b is the size of the response to the client (in bytes)
Referer is the Referer header of the HTTP request (containing the URL of the page from which this request was initiated) if any is present, and "-" otherwise.
User-agent is the browser identification string.

The complete(?) list of formatters can be found here. The same section of the documentation also lists other common log formats; readers whose logs don't look quite like this one may find the pattern their Apache configuration is using listed there.

With jQuery, how do I capitalize the first letter of a text field while the user is still editing that field?

My attempt.

Only acts if all text is lowercase or all uppercase, uses Locale case conversion. Attempts to respect intentional case difference or a ' or " in names. Happens on Blur as to not cause annoyances on phones. Although left in selection start/end so if changed to keyup maybe useful still. Should work on phones but have not tried.

$.fn.capitalize = function() {
    $(this).blur(function(event) {
        var box = event.target;
        var txt = $(this).val();
        var lc = txt.toLocaleLowerCase();
        var startingWithLowerCaseLetterRegex = new RegExp("\b([a-z])", "g");
        if (!/([-'"])/.test(txt) && txt === lc || txt === txt.toLocaleUpperCase()) {
            var stringStart = box.selectionStart;
            var stringEnd = box.selectionEnd;
            $(this).val(lc.replace(startingWithLowerCaseLetterRegex, function(c) { return c.toLocaleUpperCase() }).trim());
            box.setSelectionRange(stringStart, stringEnd);
        }
    });
   return this;
}

// Usage:
$('input[type=text].capitalize').capitalize();

Find elements inside forms and iframe using Java and Selenium WebDriver

When using an iframe, you will first have to switch to the iframe, before selecting the elements of that iframe

You can do it using:

driver.switchTo().frame(driver.findElement(By.id("frameId")));
//do your stuff
driver.switchTo().defaultContent();

In case if your frameId is dynamic, and you only have one iframe, you can use something like:

driver.switchTo().frame(driver.findElement(By.tagName("iframe")));

SmtpException: Unable to read data from the transport connection: net_io_connectionclosed

My original problem is about intermittent sending failures. E.g. First Send() succeeds, 2nd Send() fails, 3rd Send() succeeds. Initially I thought I wasn't disposing properly. So I resorted to using().

Anyways, later I added the UseDefaultCredentials = false, and the Send() finally became stable. Not sure why though.

How to pause a vbscript execution?

You can use a WScript object and call the Sleep method on it:

Set WScript = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
WScript.Sleep 2000 'Sleeps for 2 seconds

Another option is to import and use the WinAPI function directly (only works in VBA, thanks @Helen):

Declare Sub Sleep Lib "kernel32" (ByVal dwMilliseconds As Long)

C++, How to determine if a Windows Process is running?

TL;DR Use GetProcessVersion.

All of these function are available in Windows XP [desktop apps | UWP apps].

GetProcessVersion uses a Process ID and returns 0 if the process of the given id is not running.

GetExitCodeProcess uses a Process handle and gives you the process exit code, if the code is STILL_ACTIVE (259) the process is still running so you could check if it is not STILL_ACTIVE (259) meaning that the process is not running. This is likely to work in basically every situation, unless the process exits with code 259.

WaitForSingleObject uses a Process handle with the SYNCHRONIZE access right and returns 0 if the process is not running. You should not specify INFINITE for the dwMilliseconds parameter because the function would not return until the process state became signaled(process is terminated).

Scroll Element into View with Selenium

Targeting any element and sending down keys (or up/left/right) seems to work also. I know this is a bit of a hack, but I'm not really into the idea of using JavaScript to solve the scrolling problem either.

For example:

WebElement.sendKeys(Keys.DOWN);

sending mail from Batch file

PowerShell comes with a built in command for it. So running directly from a .bat file:

powershell -ExecutionPolicy ByPass -Command Send-MailMessage ^

    -To [email protected] ^
    -From [email protected] ^
    -Subject Testing ^
    -Body 123

_{NB -ExecutionPolicy ByPass is only needed if you haven't set up permissions for running PS from CMD}

_{Also for those looking to call it from within powershell, drop everything before -Command [inclusive], and ` will be your escape character (not ^)}

How to append to the end of an empty list?

Note that you also can use insert in order to put number into the required position within list:

initList = [1,2,3,4,5]
initList.insert(2, 10) # insert(pos, val) => initList = [1,2,10,3,4,5]

And also note that in python you can always get a list length using method len()

Convert AM/PM time to 24 hours format?

If you need to convert a string to a DateTime you could try

DateTime dt = DateTime.Parse("01:00 PM"); // No error checking

or (with error checking)

DateTime dt;
bool res = DateTime.TryParse("01:00 PM", out dt);

Variable dt contains your datetime, so you can write it

dt.ToString("HH:mm");

Last one works for every DateTime var you have, so if you still have a DateTime, you can write it out in this way.

How to update Xcode from command line

Xcode::Install is a simple cli software that allow you to install/select a specific Xcode version.

You can install it using gem install xcode-install
Then you will be able to install a specific version with xcversion install 9.4.1
And if you have more than one version installed, you can switch version with xcversion select 9.4

You can find more information at https://github.com/KrauseFx/xcode-install

convert string array to string

In the accepted answer, String.Join isn't best practice per its usage. String.Concat should have be used since OP included a trailing space in the first item: "Hello " (instead of using a null delimiter).

However, since OP asked for the result "Hello World!", String.Join is still the appropriate method, but the trailing whitespace should be moved to the delimiter instead.

// string[] test = new string[2];

// test[0] = "Hello ";
// test[1] = "World!";

string[] test = { "Hello", "World" }; // Alternative array creation syntax 
string result = String.Join(" ", test);

How to overcome root domain CNAME restrictions?

My company does the same thing for a number of customers where we host a web site for them although in our case it's xyz.company.com rather than www.company.com. We do get them to set the A record on xyz.company.com to point to an IP address we allocate them.

As to how you could cope with a change in IP address I don't think there is a perfect solution. Some ideas are:

Use a NAT or IP load balancer and give your customers an IP address belonging to it. If the IP address of the web server needs to change you could make an update on the NAT or load balancer,
Offer a DNS hosting service as well and get your customers to host their domain with you so that you'd be in a position to update the A records,
Get your customers to set their A record up to one main web server and use a HTTP redirect for each customer's web requests.

Returning multiple values from a C++ function

It's entirely dependent upon the actual function and the meaning of the multiple values, and their sizes:

If they're related as in your fraction example, then I'd go with a struct or class instance.
If they're not really related and can't be grouped into a class/struct then perhaps you should refactor your method into two.
Depending upon the in-memory size of the values you're returning, you may want to return a pointer to a class instance or struct, or use reference parameters.

Why doesn't Java allow overriding of static methods?

Personally I think this is a flaw in the design of Java. Yes, yes, I understand that non-static methods are attached to an instance while static methods are attached to a class, etc etc. Still, consider the following code:

public class RegularEmployee {
    private BigDecimal salary;

    public void setSalary(BigDecimal salary) {
        this.salary = salary;
    }

    public static BigDecimal getBonusMultiplier() {
        return new BigDecimal(".02");
    }

    public BigDecimal calculateBonus() {
        return salary.multiply(getBonusMultiplier());
    }

    /* ... presumably lots of other code ... */
}

public class SpecialEmployee extends RegularEmployee {
    public static BigDecimal getBonusMultiplier() {
        return new BigDecimal(".03");
    }
}

This code will not work as you might expect. Namely, SpecialEmployee's get a 2% bonus just like regular employees. But if you remove the "static"s, then SpecialEmployee's get a 3% bonus.

(Admittedly, this example is poor coding style in that in real life you would likely want the bonus multiplier to be in a database somewhere rather than hard-coded. But that's just because I didn't want to bog down the example with a lot of code irrelevant to the point.)

It seems quite plausible to me that you might want to make getBonusMultiplier static. Perhaps you want to be able to display the bonus multiplier for all the categories of employees, without needing to have an instance of an employee in each category. What would be the point of searching for such example instances? What if we are creating a new category of employee and don't have any employees assigned to it yet? This is quite logically a static function.

But it doesn't work.

And yes, yes, I can think of any number of ways to rewrite the above code to make it work. My point is not that it creates an unsolvable problem, but that it creates a trap for the unwary programmer, because the language does not behave as I think a reasonable person would expect.

Perhaps if I tried to write a compiler for an OOP language, I would quickly see why implementing it so that static functions can be overriden would be difficult or impossible.

Or perhaps there is some good reason why Java behaves this way. Can anyone point out an advantage to this behavior, some category of problem that is made easier by this? I mean, don't just point me to the Java language spec and say "see, this is documented how it behaves". I know that. But is there a good reason why it SHOULD behave this way? (Besides the obvious "making it work right was too hard"...)

Update

@VicKirk: If you mean that this is "bad design" because it doesn't fit how Java handles statics, my reply is, "Well, duh, of course." As I said in my original post, it doesn't work. But if you mean that it is bad design in the sense that there would be something fundamentally wrong with a language where this worked, i.e. where statics could be overridden just like virtual functions, that this would somehow introduce an ambiguity or it would be impossible to implement efficiently or some such, I reply, "Why? What's wrong with the concept?"

I think the example I give is a very natural thing to want to do. I have a class that has a function that does not depend on any instance data, and which I might very reasonably want to call independent of an instance, as well as wanting to call from within an instance method. Why should this not work? I've run into this situation a fair number of times over the years. In practice I get around it by making the function virtual, and then creating a static method whose only purpose in life is to be a static method that passes the call on to the virtual method with a dummy instance. That seems like a very roundabout way to get there.

Ordering by the order of values in a SQL IN() clause

I think you should manage to store your data in a way that you will simply do a join and it will be perfect, so no hacks and complicated things going on.

I have for instance a "Recently played" list of track ids, on SQLite i simply do:

SELECT * FROM recently NATURAL JOIN tracks;

Git: How to remove proxy

This is in the case if first answer does not work The latest version of git does not require to set proxy it directly uses system proxy settings .so just do these

unset HTTP_PROXY
unset HTTPS_PROXY

in some systems you may also have to do

unset http_proxy
unset https_proxy

if you want to permanantly remove proxy then

sudo gsettings set org.gnome.system.proxy mode 'none'

Hibernate: best practice to pull all lazy collections

dc.setFetchMode("innerTable", FetchMode.EAGER);
Criteria c = dc.getExecutableCriteria(s);

How to run a script at a certain time on Linux?

Cron is good for something that will run periodically, like every Saturday at 4am. There's also anacron, which works around power shutdowns, sleeps, and whatnot. As well as at.

But for a one-off solution, that doesn't require root or anything, you can just use date to compute the seconds-since-epoch of the target time as well as the present time, then use expr to find the difference, and sleep that many seconds.

fatal: could not read Username for 'https://github.com': No such file or directory

This is an issue with your stored credentials in the system credential cache. You probably have the config variable 'credential.helper' set to either wincred or winstore and it is failing to clear it. If you start the Control Panel and launch the Credential Manager applet then look for items in the generic credentials section labelled "git:https://github.com". If you delete these, then the will be recreated next time but the credential helper utility will ask you for your new credentials.

How to make Bitmap compress without change the bitmap size?

Are you sure it is smaller?

Bitmap original = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(getAssets().open("1024x768.jpg"));
ByteArrayOutputStream out = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
original.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.PNG, 100, out);
Bitmap decoded = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(new ByteArrayInputStream(out.toByteArray()));

Log.e("Original   dimensions", original.getWidth()+" "+original.getHeight());
Log.e("Compressed dimensions", decoded.getWidth()+" "+decoded.getHeight());

Gives

12-07 17:43:36.333: E/Original   dimensions(278): 1024 768
12-07 17:43:36.333: E/Compressed dimensions(278): 1024 768

Maybe you get your bitmap from a resource, in which case the bitmap dimension will depend on the phone screen density

Bitmap bitmap=((BitmapDrawable)getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.img_1024x768)).getBitmap();
Log.e("Dimensions", bitmap.getWidth()+" "+bitmap.getHeight());

12-07 17:43:38.733: E/Dimensions(278): 768 576

Reading all files in a directory, store them in objects, and send the object

For all example below you need to import fs and path modules:

const fs = require('fs');
const path = require('path');

Read files asynchronously

function readFiles(dir, processFile) {
  // read directory
  fs.readdir(dir, (error, fileNames) => {
    if (error) throw error;

    fileNames.forEach(filename => {
      // get current file name
      const name = path.parse(filename).name;
      // get current file extension
      const ext = path.parse(filename).ext;
      // get current file path
      const filepath = path.resolve(dir, filename);

      // get information about the file
      fs.stat(filepath, function(error, stat) {
        if (error) throw error;

        // check if the current path is a file or a folder
        const isFile = stat.isFile();

        // exclude folders
        if (isFile) {
          // callback, do something with the file
          processFile(filepath, name, ext, stat);
        }
      });
    });
  });
}

Usage:

// use an absolute path to the folder where files are located
readFiles('absolute/path/to/directory/', (filepath, name, ext, stat) => {
  console.log('file path:', filepath);
  console.log('file name:', name);
  console.log('file extension:', ext);
  console.log('file information:', stat);
});

Read files synchronously, store in array, natural sorting

/**
 * @description Read files synchronously from a folder, with natural sorting
 * @param {String} dir Absolute path to directory
 * @returns {Object[]} List of object, each object represent a file
 * structured like so: `{ filepath, name, ext, stat }`
 */
function readFilesSync(dir) {
  const files = [];

  fs.readdirSync(dir).forEach(filename => {
    const name = path.parse(filename).name;
    const ext = path.parse(filename).ext;
    const filepath = path.resolve(dir, filename);
    const stat = fs.statSync(filepath);
    const isFile = stat.isFile();

    if (isFile) files.push({ filepath, name, ext, stat });
  });

  files.sort((a, b) => {
    // natural sort alphanumeric strings
    // https://stackoverflow.com/a/38641281
    return a.name.localeCompare(b.name, undefined, { numeric: true, sensitivity: 'base' });
  });

  return files;
}

Usage:

// return an array list of objects
// each object represent a file
const files = readFilesSync('absolute/path/to/directory/');

You can do with the following command at the time of running docker

docker run [OPTIONS] --add-host example.com:127.0.0.1 <your-image-name>:<your tag>

Here I am mapping example.com to localhost 127.0.0.1 and its working.

What does \d+ mean in regular expression terms?

\d is a digit (a character in the range 0-9), and + means 1 or more times. So, \d+ is 1 or more digits.

This is about as simple as regular expressions get. You should try reading up on regular expressions a little bit more. Google has a lot of results for regular expression tutorial, for instance. Or you could try using a tool like the free Regex Coach that will let you enter a regular expression and sample text, then indicate what (if anything) matches the regex.

jQuery Call to WebService returns "No Transport" error

Add this: jQuery.support.cors = true;

It enables cross-site scripting in jQuery (introduced after 1.4x, I believe).

We were using a really old version of jQuery (1.3.2) and swapped it out for 1.6.1. Everything was working, except .ajax() calls. Adding the above line fixed the problem.

Zip folder in C#

"Where should I copy ICSharpCode.SharpZipLib.dll to see that namespace in Visual Studio?"

You need to add the dll file as a reference in your project. Right click on References in the Solution Explorer->Add Reference->Browse and then select the dll.

Finally you'll need to add it as a using statement in whatever files you want to use it in.

What is the difference between .yaml and .yml extension?

File extensions do not have any bearing or impact on the content of the file. You can hold YAML content in files with any extension: .yml, .yaml or indeed anything else.

The (rather sparse) YAML FAQ recommends that you use .yaml in preference to .yml, but for historic reasons many Windows programmers are still scared of using extensions with more than three characters and so opt to use .yml instead.

So, what really matters is what is inside the file, rather than what its extension is.

How to read multiple text files into a single RDD?

There is a straight forward clean solution available. Use the wholeTextFiles() method. This will take a directory and forms a key value pair. The returned RDD will be a pair RDD. Find below the description from Spark docs:

SparkContext.wholeTextFiles lets you read a directory containing multiple small text files, and returns each of them as (filename, content) pairs. This is in contrast with textFile, which would return one record per line in each file

Pandas read in table without headers

In order to read a csv in that doesn't have a header and for only certain columns you need to pass params header=None and usecols=[3,6] for the 4th and 7th columns:

df = pd.read_csv(file_path, header=None, usecols=[3,6])

iOS change navigation bar title font and color

There is nothing wrong with the other answers. I'm just sharing the storyboard version for setting the font.

1. Select Your Navigation Bar within your Navigation Controller

2. Change the Title Font in the Attributes Inspector

(You will likely need to toggle the Bar Tint for the Navigation Bar before Xcode picks up the new font)

Notes (Caveats)

Verified that this does work on Xcode 7.1.1+. (See the Samples below)

You do need to toggle the nav bar tint before the font takes effect (seems like a bug in Xcode; you can switch it back to default and font will stick)
If you choose a system font ~ Be sure to make sure the size is not 0.0 (Otherwise the new font will be ignored)

Seems like this works with no problem when only one NavBar is in the view hierarchy. It appears that secondary NavBars in the same stack are ignored. (Note that if you show the master navigation controller's navBar all the other custom navBar settings are ignored).

Gotchas (deux)

Some of these are repeated which means they are very likely worth noting.

Sometimes the storyboard xml gets corrupt. This requires you to review the structure in Storyboard as Source Code mode (right click the storyboard file > Open As ...)
In some cases the navigationItem tag associated with user defined runtime attribute was set as an xml child of the view tag instead of the view controller tag. If so remove it from between the tags for proper operation.
Toggle the NavBar Tint to ensure the custom font is used.
Verify the size parameter of the font unless using a dynamic font style
View hierarchy will override the settings. It appears that one font per stack is possible.

Handling Custom Fonts

Note ~ A nice checklist can be found from the Code With Chris website and you can see the sample download project.

If you have your own font and want to use that in your storyboard, then there is a decent set of answers on the following SO Question. One answer identifies these steps.

Get you custom font file(.ttf,.ttc)
Import the font files to your Xcode project
In the app-info.plist,add a key named Fonts provided by application.It's an array type , add all your font file names to the array,note:including the file extension.
In the storyboard , on the NavigationBar go to the Attribute Inspector,click the right icon button of the Font select area.In the popup panel , choose Font to Custom, and choose the Family of you embeded font name.

Custom Font Workaround

So Xcode naturally looks like it can handle custom fonts on UINavigationItem but that feature is just not updating properly (The font selected is ignored).

To workaround this:

One way is to fix using the storyboard and adding a line of code: First add a UIView (UIButton, UILabel, or some other UIView subclass) to the View Controller (Not the Navigation Item...Xcode is not currently allowing one to do that). After you add the control you can modify the font in the storyboard and add a reference as an outlet to your View Controller. Just assign that view to the UINavigationItem.titleView. You could also set the text name in code if necessary. Reported Bug (23600285).

@IBOutlet var customFontTitleView: UIButton!

//Sometime later...    
self.navigationItem.titleView = customFontTitleView

What is the difference between atomic / volatile / synchronized?

volatile:

volatile is a keyword. volatile forces all threads to get latest value of the variable from main memory instead of cache. No locking is required to access volatile variables. All threads can access volatile variable value at same time.

Using volatile variables reduces the risk of memory consistency errors, because any write to a volatile variable establishes a happens-before relationship with subsequent reads of that same variable.

This means that changes to a volatile variable are always visible to other threads. What's more, it also means that when a thread reads a volatile variable, it sees not just the latest change to the volatile, but also the side effects of the code that led up the change.

When to use: One thread modifies the data and other threads have to read latest value of data. Other threads will take some action but they won't update data.

AtomicXXX:

AtomicXXX classes support lock-free thread-safe programming on single variables. These AtomicXXX classes (like AtomicInteger) resolves memory inconsistency errors / side effects of modification of volatile variables, which have been accessed in multiple threads.

When to use: Multiple threads can read and modify data.

synchronized:

synchronized is keyword used to guard a method or code block. By making method as synchronized has two effects:

First, it is not possible for two invocations of synchronized methods on the same object to interleave. When one thread is executing a synchronized method for an object, all other threads that invoke synchronized methods for the same object block (suspend execution) until the first thread is done with the object.
Second, when a synchronized method exits, it automatically establishes a happens-before relationship with any subsequent invocation of a synchronized method for the same object. This guarantees that changes to the state of the object are visible to all threads.

When to use: Multiple threads can read and modify data. Your business logic not only update the data but also executes atomic operations

AtomicXXX is equivalent of volatile + synchronized even though the implementation is different. AmtomicXXX extends volatile variables + compareAndSet methods but does not use synchronization.

Android check null or empty string in Android

Checking for empty string if it is equal to null, length is zero or containing "null" string

public static boolean isEmptyString(String text) {
        return (text == null || text.trim().equals("null") || text.trim()
                .length() <= 0);
    }

Early exit from function?

I think throw a new error is good approach to stop execution rather than just return or return false. For ex. I am validating a number of files that I only allow max five files for upload in separate function.

validateMaxNumber: function(length) {
   if (5 >= length) {
        // Continue execution
   }
   // Flash error message and stop execution
   // Can't stop execution by return or return false statement; 
   let message = "No more than " + this.maxNumber + " File is allowed";
   throw new Error(message);
}

But I am calling this function from main flow function as

  handleFilesUpload() {
      let files =  document.getElementById("myFile").files;
      this.validateMaxNumber(files.length);
}

In the above example I can't stop execution unless I throw new Error.Just return or return false only works if you are in main function of execution otherwise it doesn't work.

How do I open a new window using jQuery?

It's not really something you need jQuery to do. There is a very simple plain old javascript method for doing this:

window.open('http://www.google.com','GoogleWindow', 'width=800, height=600');

That's it.

The first arg is the url, the second is the name of the window, this should be specified because IE will throw a fit about trying to use window.opener later if there was no window name specified (just a little FYI), and the last two params are width/height.

EDIT: Full specification can be found in the link mmmshuddup provided.

Assigning multiple styles on an HTML element

The syntax you used is problematic. In html, an attribute (ex: style) has a value delimited by double quotes. In that case, the value of the style attribute is a css list of selectors. Try this:

<h2 style="text-align:center; font-family:tahoma">TITLE</h2>

How to remove the first and the last character of a string

I don't think jQuery has anything to do with this. Anyway, try the following :

url = url.replace(/^\/|\/$/g, '');

Why can't I define a default constructor for a struct in .NET?

Just special-case it. If you see a numerator of 0 and a denominator of 0, pretend like it has the values you really want.

mongodb how to get max value from collections

For max value, we can write sql query as

select age from table_name order by age desc limit 1

same way we can write in mongodb too.

db.getCollection('collection_name').find().sort({"age" : -1}).limit(1); //max age
db.getCollection('collection_name').find().sort({"age" : 1}).limit(1); //min age

Setting background images in JFrame

There is no built-in method, but there are several ways to do it. The most straightforward way that I can think of at the moment is:

Create a subclass of JComponent.
Override the paintComponent(Graphics g) method to paint the image that you want to display.
Set the content pane of the JFrame to be this subclass.

Some sample code:

class ImagePanel extends JComponent {
    private Image image;
    public ImagePanel(Image image) {
        this.image = image;
    }
    @Override
    protected void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
        super.paintComponent(g);
        g.drawImage(image, 0, 0, this);
    }
}

// elsewhere
BufferedImage myImage = ImageIO.read(...);
JFrame myJFrame = new JFrame("Image pane");
myJFrame.setContentPane(new ImagePanel(myImage));

Note that this code does not handle resizing the image to fit the JFrame, if that's what you wanted.

replace NULL with Blank value or Zero in sql server

You should always return the same type on all case condition:

In the first one you have an character and on the else you have an int.

You can use:

Select convert(varchar(11),isnull(totalamount,0))

or if you want with your solution:

Case when total_amount = 0 then '0'   
else convert(varchar(11),isnull(total_amount, 0))  
end as total_amount

Python: Removing list element while iterating over list

You can still use filter, moving to an outside function the element modification (iterating just once)

def do_the_magic(x):
    do_action(x)
    return check(x)

# you can get a different filtered list
filter(do_the_magic,yourList)

# or have it modified in place (as suggested by Steven Rumbalski, see comment)
yourList[:] = itertools.ifilter(do_the_magic, yourList)

Delegation: EventEmitter or Observable in Angular

If one wants to follow a more Reactive oriented style of programming, then definitely the concept of "Everything is a stream" comes into picture and hence, use Observables to deal with these streams as often as possible.

Uncaught TypeError: .indexOf is not a function

Basically indexOf() is a method belongs to string(array object also), But while calling the function you are passing a number, try to cast it to a string and pass it.

document.getElementById("oset").innerHTML = timeD2C(timeofday + "");

_x000D_

 var timeofday = new Date().getHours() + (new Date().getMinutes()) / 60;_x000D_
_x000D_
_x000D_
_x000D_
_x000D_
 function timeD2C(time) { // Converts 11.5 (decimal) to 11:30 (colon)_x000D_
    var pos = time.indexOf('.');_x000D_
    var hrs = time.substr(1, pos - 1);_x000D_
    var min = (time.substr(pos, 2)) * 60;_x000D_
_x000D_
    if (hrs > 11) {_x000D_
        hrs = (hrs - 12) + ":" + min + " PM";_x000D_
    } else {_x000D_
        hrs += ":" + min + " AM";_x000D_
    }_x000D_
    return hrs;_x000D_
}_x000D_
alert(timeD2C(timeofday+""));

_x000D_

And it is good to do the string conversion inside your function definition,

function timeD2C(time) { 
  time = time + "";
  var pos = time.indexOf('.');

So that the code flow won't break at times when devs forget to pass a string into this function.

How to solve "java.io.IOException: error=12, Cannot allocate memory" calling Runtime#exec()?

You can use the Tanuki wrapper to spawn a process with POSIX spawn instead of fork. http://wrapper.tanukisoftware.com/doc/english/child-exec.html

The WrapperManager.exec() function is an alternative to the Java-Runtime.exec() which has the disadvantage to use the fork() method, which can become on some platforms very memory expensive to create a new process.

escaping question mark in regex javascript

Whenever you have a known pattern (i.e. you do not use a variable to build a RegExp), use literal regex notation where you only need to use single backslashes to escape special regex metacharacters:

var re = /I like your Apartment\. Could we schedule a viewing\?/g;
                               ^^                            ^^

Whenever you need to build a RegExp dynamically, use RegExp constructor notation where you MUST double backslashes for them to denote a literal backslash:

var questionmark_block = "\\?"; // A literal ?
var initial_subpattern = "I like your Apartment\\. Could we schedule a viewing"; // Note the dot must also be escaped to match a literal dot
var re = new RegExp(initial_subpattern + questionmark_block, "g");

And if you use the String.raw string literal you may use \ as is (see an example of using a template string literal where you may put variables into the regex pattern):

_x000D_

const questionmark_block = String.raw`\?`; // A literal ?
const initial_subpattern = "I like your Apartment\\. Could we schedule a viewing";
const re = new RegExp(`${initial_subpattern}${questionmark_block}`, 'g'); // Building pattern from two variables
console.log(re); // => /I like your Apartment\. Could we schedule a viewing\?/g

Run a script in Dockerfile

Try to create script with ADD command and specification of working directory Like this("script" is the name of script and /root/script.sh is where you want it in the container, it can be different path:

ADD script.sh /root/script.sh

In this case ADD has to come before CMD, if you have one BTW it's cool way to import scripts to any location in container from host machine

In CMD place [./script]

It should automatically execute your script

You can also specify WORKDIR as /root, then you'l be automatically placed in root, upon starting a container

How to use jquery or ajax to update razor partial view in c#/asp.net for a MVC project

The main concept of partial view is returning the HTML code rather than going to the partial view it self.

[HttpGet]
public ActionResult Calendar(int year)
{
    var dates = new List<DateTime>() { /* values based on year */ };
    HolidayViewModel model = new HolidayViewModel {
        Dates = dates
    };
    return PartialView("HolidayPartialView", model);
}

this action return the HTML code of the partial view ("HolidayPartialView").

To refresh partial view replace the existing item with the new filtered item using the jQuery below.

$.ajax({
                url: "/Holiday/Calendar",
                type: "GET",
                data: { year: ((val * 1) + 1) }
            })
            .done(function(partialViewResult) {
                $("#refTable").html(partialViewResult);
            });

Output single character in C

Be careful of difference between 'c' and "c"

'c' is a char suitable for formatting with %c

"c" is a char* pointing to a memory block with a length of 2 (with the null terminator).

Visual Studio 2010 shortcut to find classes and methods?

Use the "Go To Find Combo Box" with the ">of" command. CTRL+/ or CTRL+D are the standard hotkeys.

For example, go to the combo box (CTRL+/) and type: >of MyClassName. As you type, intellisense will refine the options in the dropdown.

In my experience, this is faster than Navigate To and doesn't bring up another dialog to deal with. Also, this combo box has a lot of other nifty little shortcut commands:

Using the Go To Find Combo Box

Bootstrap Carousel image doesn't align properly

Does your images have exactly a 460px width as the span6 ? In my case, with different image sizes, I put a height attribute on my images to be sure they are all the same height and the carousel don't resize between images.

In your case, try to set a height so the ratio between this height and the width of your carousel-inner div is the same as the aspectRatio of your images

Making heatmap from pandas DataFrame

Please note that the authors of seaborn only want seaborn.heatmap to work with categorical dataframes. It's not general.

If your index and columns are numeric and/or datetime values, this code will serve you well.

Matplotlib heat-mapping function pcolormesh requires bins instead of indices, so there is some fancy code to build bins from your dataframe indices (even if your index isn't evenly spaced!).

The rest is simply np.meshgrid and plt.pcolormesh.

import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

def conv_index_to_bins(index):
    """Calculate bins to contain the index values.
    The start and end bin boundaries are linearly extrapolated from 
    the two first and last values. The middle bin boundaries are 
    midpoints.

    Example 1: [0, 1] -> [-0.5, 0.5, 1.5]
    Example 2: [0, 1, 4] -> [-0.5, 0.5, 2.5, 5.5]
    Example 3: [4, 1, 0] -> [5.5, 2.5, 0.5, -0.5]"""
    assert index.is_monotonic_increasing or index.is_monotonic_decreasing

    # the beginning and end values are guessed from first and last two
    start = index[0] - (index[1]-index[0])/2
    end = index[-1] + (index[-1]-index[-2])/2

    # the middle values are the midpoints
    middle = pd.DataFrame({'m1': index[:-1], 'p1': index[1:]})
    middle = middle['m1'] + (middle['p1']-middle['m1'])/2

    if isinstance(index, pd.DatetimeIndex):
        idx = pd.DatetimeIndex(middle).union([start,end])
    elif isinstance(index, (pd.Float64Index,pd.RangeIndex,pd.Int64Index)):
        idx = pd.Float64Index(middle).union([start,end])
    else:
        print('Warning: guessing what to do with index type %s' % 
              type(index))
        idx = pd.Float64Index(middle).union([start,end])

    return idx.sort_values(ascending=index.is_monotonic_increasing)

def calc_df_mesh(df):
    """Calculate the two-dimensional bins to hold the index and 
    column values."""
    return np.meshgrid(conv_index_to_bins(df.index),
                       conv_index_to_bins(df.columns))

def heatmap(df):
    """Plot a heatmap of the dataframe values using the index and 
    columns"""
    X,Y = calc_df_mesh(df)

Get total size of file in bytes

You can do that simple with Files.size(new File(filename).toPath()).

Restricting input to textbox: allowing only numbers and decimal point

All solutions presented here are using single key events. This is very error prone since input can be also given using copy'n'paste or drag'n'drop. Also some of the solutions restrict the usage of non-character keys like ctrl+c, Pos1 etc.

I suggest rather than checking every key press you check whether the result is valid in respect to your expectations.

_x000D_

var validNumber = new RegExp(/^\d*\.?\d*$/);_x000D_
var lastValid = document.getElementById("test1").value;_x000D_
function validateNumber(elem) {_x000D_
  if (validNumber.test(elem.value)) {_x000D_
    lastValid = elem.value;_x000D_
  } else {_x000D_
    elem.value = lastValid;_x000D_
  }_x000D_
}

_x000D_

<textarea id="test1" oninput="validateNumber(this);" ></textarea>

_x000D_

The oninput event is triggered just after something was changed in the text area and before being rendered.

You can extend the RegEx to whatever number format you want to accept. This is far more maintainable and extendible than checking for single key presses.

Converting int to string in C

Before I continue, I must warn you that itoa is NOT an ANSI function — it's not a standard C function. You should use sprintf to convert an int into a string.

itoa takes three arguments.

The first one is the integer to be converted.
The second is a pointer to an array of characters - this is where the string is going to be stored. The program may crash if you pass in a char * variable, so you should pass in a normal sized char array and it will work fine.
The last one is NOT the size of the array, but it's the BASE of your number - base 10 is the one you're most likely to use.

The function returns a pointer to its second argument — where it has stored the converted string.

itoa is a very useful function, which is supported by some compilers - it's a shame it isn't support by all, unlike atoi.

If you still want to use itoa, here is how should you use it. Otherwise, you have another option using sprintf (as long as you want base 8, 10 or 16 output):

char str[5];
printf("15 in binary is %s\n",  itoa(15, str, 2));

What is git tag, How to create tags & How to checkout git remote tag(s)

Let's start by explaining what a tag in git is

A tag is used to label and mark a specific commit in the history.
It is usually used to mark release points (eg. v1.0, etc.).

Although a tag may appear similar to a branch, a tag, however, does not change. It points directly to a specific commit in the history and will not change unless explicitly updated.

You will not be able to checkout the tags if it's not locally in your repository so first, you have to fetch the tags to your local repository.

First, make sure that the tag exists locally by doing

# --all will fetch all the remotes.
# --tags will fetch all tags as well
$ git fetch --all --tags --prune

Then check out the tag by running

$ git checkout tags/<tag_name> -b <branch_name>

Instead of origin use the tags/ prefix.

In this sample you have 2 tags version 1.0 & version 1.1 you can check them out with any of the following:

$ git checkout A  ...
$ git checkout version 1.0  ...
$ git checkout tags/version 1.0  ...

All of the above will do the same since the tag is only a pointer to a given commit.

origin: https://backlog.com/git-tutorial/img/post/stepup/capture_stepup4_1_1.png

How to see the list of all tags?

# list all tags
$ git tag

# list all tags with given pattern ex: v-
$ git tag --list 'v-*'

How to create tags?

There are 2 ways to create a tag:

# lightweight tag 
$ git tag 

# annotated tag
$ git tag -a

The difference between the 2 is that when creating an annotated tag you can add metadata as you have in a git commit:
name, e-mail, date, comment & signature

How to delete tags?

Delete a local tag

$ git tag -d <tag_name>
Deleted tag <tag_name> (was 000000)

Note: If you try to delete a non existig Git tag, there will be see the following error:

$ git tag -d <tag_name>
error: tag '<tag_name>' not found.

Delete remote tags

# Delete a tag from the server with push tags
$ git push --delete origin <tag name>

How to clone a specific tag?

In order to grab the content of a given tag, you can use the checkout command. As explained above tags are like any other commits so we can use checkout and instead of using the SHA-1 simply replacing it with the tag_name

Option 1:

# Update the local git repo with the latest tags from all remotes
$ git fetch --all

# checkout the specific tag
$ git checkout tags/<tag> -b <branch>

Option 2:

Using the clone command

Since git supports shallow clone by adding the --branch to the clone command we can use the tag name instead of the branch name. Git knows how to "translate" the given SHA-1 to the relevant commit

# Clone a specific tag name using git clone 
$ git clone <url> --branch=<tag_name>

git clone --branch=

--branch can also take tags and detaches the HEAD at that commit in the resulting repository.

How to push tags?

`git push --tags`

To push all tags:

# Push all tags
$ git push --tags

Using the `refs/tags` instead of just specifying the `<tagname>`.

Why?

It's recommended to use refs/tags since sometimes tags can have the same name as your branches and a simple git push will push the branch instead of the tag

To push annotated tags and current history chain tags use:

`git push --follow-tags`

This flag --follow-tags pushes both commits and only tags that are both:

Annotated tags (so you can skip local/temp build tags)
Reachable tags (an ancestor) from the current branch (located on the history)

From Git 2.4 you can set it using configuration

$ git config --global push.followTags true

Cheatsheet:

Compile throws a "User-defined type not defined" error but does not go to the offending line of code

I had this same problem when I inherited another analyst's workbook. He assigned macros to each button on his worksheet. When I changed the name of the module (not the procedure name), it kicked up this error. The fix was easy. Have the button run an _OnClick() event procedure in the worksheet and have that procedure explicitly Call MyProcedureName().

Shell script - remove first and last quote (") from a variable

There is a straightforward way using xargs:

> echo '"quoted"' | xargs
quoted

xargs uses echo as the default command if no command is provided and strips quotes from the input. See e.g. here.

Could not load file or assembly 'Newtonsoft.Json, Version=9.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=30ad4fe6b2a6aeed' or one of its dependencies

I had a very similar problem. I was trying to use Newtonsoft.Json.dll in a .NET DLL, in the same way that I am successfully using it in .NET EXEs on my computer. I used NuGet in my Visual Studio 2017 to add Newtonsoft.Json to MyDll.dll. MyExecutable.exe references MyDll.dll. Calling a Newtonsoft.Json method from code within MyDll.dll raised "System.IO.FileLoadException: Could not load file or assembly 'Newtonsoft.Json, Version=12.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=30ad4fe6b2a6aeed' or one of its dependencies. The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131040)".

I ran Microsoft's fuslogvw.exe https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/framework/tools/fuslogvw-exe-assembly-binding-log-viewer to check what was being loaded and found the following:

LOG: Post-policy reference: Newtonsoft.Json, Version=12.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=30ad4fe6b2a6aeed
LOG: GAC Lookup was unsuccessful.
LOG: Attempting download of new URL file:///C:/MyExecutable/bin/Debug/Newtonsoft.Json.DLL.
LOG: Assembly download was successful. Attempting setup of file: C:\MyExecutable\bin\Debug\Newtonsoft.Json.dll
LOG: Entering run-from-source setup phase.
LOG: Assembly Name is: Newtonsoft.Json, Version=6.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=30ad4fe6b2a6aeed
WRN: Comparing the assembly name resulted in the mismatch: Major Version

ERR: Run-from-source setup phase failed with hr = 0x80131040.
ERR: Failed to complete setup of assembly (hr = 0x80131040). Probing terminated.

MyExecutable.exe had no references or calls to Newtonsoft.Json, yet I found a 6.0.0.0 Newtonsoft.Json.dll in bin\Debug directories of copies of my MyExecutable source tree from before I added any Newtonsoft.Json references to any of my code. I do not know why the 6.0.0.0 Newtonsoft.Json.dll was there. Perhaps it was referenced by another DLL referenced by MyExecutable. I avoided the FileLoadException by using NuGet to add a reference to 12.0.0.0 Newtonsoft.Json to MyExecutable.

I expected that binding redirect in MyExecutable’s App.config as illustrated below would be an alternative to MyExecutable’s referencing Newtonsoft.Json, but it did not work. …

Docker-compose: node_modules not present in a volume after npm install succeeds

You can try something like this in your Dockerfile:

FROM node:0.12
WORKDIR /worker
CMD bash ./start.sh

Then you should use the Volume like this:

volumes:
  - worker/:/worker:rw

The startscript should be a part of your worker repository and looks like this:

#!/bin/sh
npm install
npm start

So the node_modules are a part of your worker volume and gets synchronized and the npm scripts are executed when everything is up.

Composer Warning: openssl extension is missing. How to enable in WAMP

I had the same problem even though openssl was enabled. The issue was that the Composer installer was looking at this config file:

C:\wamp\bin\php\php5.4.3\php.ini

But the config file that's loaded is actually here:

C:\wamp\bin\apache\apache2.2.22\bin\php.ini

So I just had to uncomment it in the first php.ini file and that did the trick. This is how WAMP was installed on my machine by default. I didn't go changing anything, so this will probably happen to others as well. This is basically the same as Augie Gardner's answer above, but I just wanted to point out that you might have two php.ini files.

Import Excel Spreadsheet Data to an EXISTING sql table?

You can copy-paste data from en excel-sheet to an SQL-table by doing so:

Select the data in Excel and press Ctrl + C
In SQL Server Management Studio right click the table and choose Edit Top 200 Rows
Scroll to the bottom and select the entire empty row by clicking on the row header
Paste the data by pressing Ctrl + V

Note: Often tables have a first column which is an ID-column with an auto generated/incremented ID. When you paste your data it will start inserting the leftmost selected column in Excel into the leftmost column in SSMS thus inserting data into the ID-column. To avoid that keep an empty column at the leftmost part of your selection in order to skip that column in SSMS. That will result in SSMS inserting the default data which is the auto generated ID.

Furthermore you can skip other columns by having empty columns at the same ordinal positions in the Excel sheet selection as those columns to be skipped. That will make SSMS insert the default value (or NULL where no default value is specified).

You can open your project now again.

MySQL Error #1133 - Can't find any matching row in the user table

To expound on Stephane's answer.

I got this error when I tried to grant remote connections privileges of a particular database to a root user on MySQL server by running the command:

USE database_name;
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'root'@'%';

This gave an error:

ERROR 1133 (42000): Can't find any matching row in the user table

Here's how I fixed it:

First, confirm that your MySQL server allows for remote connections. Use your preferred text editor to open the MySQL server configuration file:

sudo nano /etc/mysql/mysql.conf.d/mysqld.cnf

Scroll down to the bind-address line and ensure that is either commented out or replaced with 0.0.0.0 (to allow all remote connections) or replaced with Ip-Addresses that you want remote connections from.

Once you make the necessary changes, save and exit the configuration file. Apply the changes made to the MySQL config file by restarting the MySQL service:

sudo systemctl restart mysql

Next, log into the MySQL server console on the server it was installed:

mysql -u root -p

Enter your mysql user password

Check the hosts that the user you want has access to already. In my case the user is root:

SELECT host FROM mysql.user WHERE user = "root";

This gave me this output:

+-----------+
| host      |
+-----------+
| localhost |
+-----------+

Next, I ran the command below which is similar to the previous one that was throwing errors, but notice that I added a password to it this time:

USE database_name;
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'root'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'my-password';

Note: % grants a user remote access from all hosts on a network. You can specify the Ip-Address of the individual hosts that you want to grant the user access from using the command - GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'root'@'Ip-Address' IDENTIFIED BY 'my-password';

Afterwhich I checked the hosts that the user now has access to. In my case the user is root:

SELECT host FROM mysql.user WHERE user = "root";

This gave me this output:

+-----------+
| host      |
+-----------+
| %         |
| localhost |
+-----------+

Finally, you can try connecting to the MySQL server from another server using the command:

mysql -u username -h mysql-server-ip-address -p

Where u represents user, h represents mysql-server-ip-address and p represents password. So in my case it was:

mysql -u root -h 34.69.261.158 -p

Enter your mysql user password

You should get this output depending on your MySQL server version:

Welcome to the MySQL monitor.  Commands end with ; or \g.
Your MySQL connection id is 4

What exactly is a Maven Snapshot and why do we need it?

This is how a snapshot looks like for a repository and in this case is not enabled, which means that the repository referred in here is stable and there's no need for updates.

<project>
    ...
    <repositories>
        <repository>
            <id>lds-main</id>
            <name>LDS Main Repo</name>
            <url>http://code.lds.org/nexus/content/groups/main-repo</url>
            <snapshots>
                <enabled>false</enabled>
            </snapshots>
        </repository>
    </repositories>
</project>

Another case would be for:

<snapshots>
        <enabled>true</enabled>
</snapshots>

which means that Maven will look for updates for this repository. You can also specify an interval for the updates with tag.

Your configuration specifies to merge with the <branch name> from the remote, but no such ref was fetched.?

I was facing the same issue where my current branch was dev and I was checking out to MR branch and doing git pull thereafter. An easy workaround that I took was I created a new folder for MR Branch and did git pull there followed by git clone.

So basically I maintained different folders for pushing code to different branch.

What is Ruby's double-colon `::`?

It is all about preventing definitions from clashing with other code linked in to your project. It means you can keep things separate.

For example you can have one method called "run" in your code and you will still be able to call your method rather than the "run" method that has been defined in some other library that you have linked in.

How to sum all the values in a dictionary?

I feel sum(d.values()) is the most efficient way to get the sum.

You can also try the reduce function to calculate the sum along with a lambda expression:

reduce(lambda x,y:x+y,d.values())

CSS pseudo elements in React

Inline styling does not support pseudos or at-rules (e.g., @media). Recommendations range from reimplement CSS features in JavaScript for CSS states like :hover via onMouseEnter and onMouseLeave to using more elements to reproduce pseudo-elements like :after and :before to just use an external stylesheet.

Personally dislike all of those solutions. Reimplementing CSS features via JavaScript does not scale well -- neither does adding superfluous markup.

Imagine a large team wherein each developer is recreating CSS features like :hover. Each developer will do it differently, as teams grow in size, if it can be done, it will be done. Fact is with JavaScript there are about n ways to reimplement CSS features, and over time you can bet on every one of those ways being implemented with the end result being spaghetti code.

So what to do? Use CSS. Granted you asked about inline styling going to assume you're likely in the CSS-in-JS camp (me too!). Have found colocating HTML and CSS to be as valuable as colocating JS and HTML, lots of folks just don't realise it yet (JS-HTML colocation had lots of resistance too at first).

Made a solution in this space called Style It that simply lets your write plaintext CSS in your React components. No need to waste cycles reinventing CSS in JS. Right tool for the right job, here is an example using :after:

npm install style-it --save
