How to solve SQL Server Error 1222 i.e Unlock a SQL Server table

To prevent this, make sure every BEGIN TRANSACTION has COMMIT

The following will say successful but will leave uncommitted transactions:

BEGIN TRANSACTION
BEGIN TRANSACTION
<SQL_CODE?
COMMIT

Closing query windows with uncommitted transactions will prompt you to commit your transactions. This will generally resolve the Error 1222 message.

Find the unique values in a column and then sort them

You can also use the drop_duplicates() instead of unique()

df = pd.DataFrame({'A':[1,1,3,2,6,2,8]})
a = df['A'].drop_duplicates()
a.sort()
print a

How to create my json string by using C#?

No real need for the JSON.NET package. You could use JavaScriptSerializer. The Serialize method will turn a managed type instance into a JSON string.

var serializer = new JavaScriptSerializer();
var json = serializer.Serialize(instanceOfThing);

Jquery Ajax, return success/error from mvc.net controller

Use Json class instead of Content as shown following:

    //  When I want to return an error:
    if (!isFileSupported)
    {
        Response.StatusCode = (int) HttpStatusCode.BadRequest;
        return Json("The attached file is not supported", MediaTypeNames.Text.Plain);
    }
    else
    {
        //  When I want to return sucess:
        Response.StatusCode = (int)HttpStatusCode.OK; 
        return Json("Message sent!", MediaTypeNames.Text.Plain);
    }

Also set contentType:

contentType: 'application/json; charset=utf-8',

How to submit http form using C#

I needed to have a button handler that created a form post to another application within the client's browser. I landed on this question but didn't see an answer that suited my scenario. This is what I came up with:

      protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {

            var formPostText = @"<html><body><div>
<form method=""POST"" action=""OtherLogin.aspx"" name=""frm2Post"">
  <input type=""hidden"" name=""field1"" value=""" + TextBox1.Text + @""" /> 
  <input type=""hidden"" name=""field2"" value=""" + TextBox2.Text + @""" /> 
</form></div><script type=""text/javascript"">document.frm2Post.submit();</script></body></html>
";
            Response.Write(formPostText);
        }

Inserting data to table (mysqli insert)

Okay, of course the question has been answered, but no-one seems to notice the third line of your code. It continuosly bugged me. 

    <?php
    mysqli_connect("localhost","root","","web_table");
    mysql_select_db("web_table") or die(mysql_error());

for some reason, you made a mysqli connection to server, but you are trying to make a mysql connection to database.To get going, rather use

       $link = mysqli_connect("localhost","root","","web_table");
       mysqli_select_db ($link , "web_table" ) or die.....

or for where i began

     <?php $connection = mysqli_connect("localhost","root","","web_table");       
      global $connection; // global connection to databases - kill it once you're done

or just query with a $connection parameter as the other argument like above. Get rid of that third line.

Import CSV to mysql table

First create a table in the database with same numbers of columns that are in the csv file.

Then use following query

LOAD DATA INFILE 'D:/Projects/testImport.csv' INTO TABLE cardinfo
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' ENCLOSED BY '"'
LINES TERMINATED BY '\r\n'

Resize image in the wiki of GitHub using Markdown

I have used methods described above. Now I am using the method which is a way similiar but more simple to me.

  1. First create add README.md file to your project.
  2. Then upload screenshoots or whatever description images needed to your project main directory.
  3. After uploading image Assets use html to refer these assets directly without using link like below

Like this:

<img src="icon.jpg" width="324" height="324">

<p align="center">
  <img src="screen1.png" width="256" height="455">
  <img src="screen2.png" width="256" height="455">
  <img src="screen3.png" width="256" height="455">
</p>

On above example I have used paragraph to align images side by side. If you are going to use single image just use the code as below

<img src="icon.jpg" width="324" height="324">

Have a nice day!

How to delete all files and folders in a folder by cmd call

One easy one-line option is to create an empty directory somewhere on your file system, and then use ROBOCOPY (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc733145.aspx) with the /MIR switch to remove all files and subfolders. By default, robocopy does not copy security, so the ACLs in your root folder should remain intact.

Also probably want to set a value for the retry switch, /r, because the default number of retries is 1 million.

robocopy "C:\DoNotDelete_UsedByScripts\EmptyFolder" "c:\temp\MyDirectoryToEmpty" /MIR /r:3

instantiate a class from a variable in PHP?

 
class Test {
    public function yo() {
        return 'yoes';
    }
}

$var = 'Test';

$obj = new $var();
echo $obj->yo(); //yoes

Does Java support structs?

Structs "really" pure aren't supported in Java. E.g., C# supports struct definitions that represent values and can be allocated anytime.

In Java, the unique way to get an approximation of C++ structs

struct Token
{
    TokenType type;
    Stringp stringValue;
    double mathValue;
}

// Instantiation

{
    Token t = new Token;
}

without using a (static buffer or list) is doing something like

var type = /* TokenType */ ;
var stringValue = /* String */ ;
var mathValue = /* double */ ;

So, simply allocate variables or statically define them into a class.

Spring RequestMapping for controllers that produce and consume JSON

You shouldn't need to configure the consumes or produces attribute at all. Spring will automatically serve JSON based on the following factors.

  • The accepts header of the request is application/json
  • @ResponseBody annotated method
  • Jackson library on classpath

You should also follow Wim's suggestion and define your controller with the @RestController annotation. This will save you from annotating each request method with @ResponseBody

Another benefit of this approach would be if a client wants XML instead of JSON, they would get it. They would just need to specify xml in the accepts header.

Confused about UPDLOCK, HOLDLOCK

Why would UPDLOCK block selects? The Lock Compatibility Matrix clearly shows N for the S/U and U/S contention, as in No Conflict.

As for the HOLDLOCK hint the documentation states:

HOLDLOCK: Is equivalent to SERIALIZABLE. For more information, see SERIALIZABLE later in this topic.

...

SERIALIZABLE: ... The scan is performed with the same semantics as a transaction running at the SERIALIZABLE isolation level...

and the Transaction Isolation Level topic explains what SERIALIZABLE means:

No other transactions can modify data that has been read by the current transaction until the current transaction completes.

Other transactions cannot insert new rows with key values that would fall in the range of keys read by any statements in the current transaction until the current transaction completes.

Therefore the behavior you see is perfectly explained by the product documentation:

  • UPDLOCK does not block concurrent SELECT nor INSERT, but blocks any UPDATE or DELETE of the rows selected by T1
  • HOLDLOCK means SERALIZABLE and therefore allows SELECTS, but blocks UPDATE and DELETES of the rows selected by T1, as well as any INSERT in the range selected by T1 (which is the entire table, therefore any insert).
  • (UPDLOCK, HOLDLOCK): your experiment does not show what would block in addition to the case above, namely another transaction with UPDLOCK in T2:
    SELECT * FROM dbo.Test WITH (UPDLOCK) WHERE ...
  • TABLOCKX no need for explanations

The real question is what are you trying to achieve? Playing with lock hints w/o an absolute complete 110% understanding of the locking semantics is begging for trouble...

After OP edit:

I would like to select rows from a table and prevent the data in that table from being modified while I am processing it.

The you should use one of the higher transaction isolation levels. REPEATABLE READ will prevent the data you read from being modified. SERIALIZABLE will prevent the data you read from being modified and new data from being inserted. Using transaction isolation levels is the right approach, as opposed to using query hints. Kendra Little has a nice poster exlaining the isolation levels.

In Rails, how do you render JSON using a view?

As others have mentioned you need a users/show.json view, but there are options to consider for the templating language...

ERB

Works out of the box. Great for HTML, but you'll quickly find it's awful for JSON.

RABL

Good solution. Have to add a dependency and learn its DSL.

JSON Builder

Same deal as RABL: Good solution. Have to add a dependency and learn its DSL.

Plain Ruby

Ruby is awesome at generating JSON and there's nothing new to learn as you can call to_json on a Hash or an AR object. Simply register the .rb extension for templates (in an initializer):

ActionView::Template.register_template_handler(:rb, :source.to_proc)

Then create the view users/show.json.rb:

@user.to_json

For more info on this approach see http://railscasts.com/episodes/379-template-handlers

What is "X-Content-Type-Options=nosniff"?

A really simple explanation that I found useful: the nosniff response header is a way to keep a website more secure.

From Security Researcher, Scott Helme, here:

It prevents Google Chrome and Internet Explorer from trying to mime-sniff the content-type of a response away from the one being declared by the server.

Flutter - Wrap text on overflow, like insert ellipsis or fade

There are many answers but Will some more observation it.

How to fix IndexError: invalid index to scalar variable

Basically, 1 is not a valid index of y. If the visitor is comming from his own code he should check if his y contains the index which he tries to access (in this case the index is 1).

Retrieve column names from java.sql.ResultSet

U can get column name and value from resultSet.getMetaData(); This code work for me:

Connection conn = null;
PreparedStatement preparedStatement = null;
    try {
        Class.forName("com.mysql.cj.jdbc.Driver");
        conn = MySQLJDBCUtil.getConnection();
        preparedStatement = conn.prepareStatement(sql);
        if (params != null) {
            for (int i = 0; i < params.size(); i++) {
                preparedStatement.setObject(i + 1, params.get(i).getSqlValue());
            }

Using grep to search for a string that has a dot in it

grep uses regexes; . means "any character" in a regex. If you want a literal string, use grep -F, fgrep, or escape the . to \..

Don't forget to wrap your string in double quotes. Or else you should use \\.

So, your command would need to be:

grep -r "0\.49" *

or 

grep -r 0\\.49 *

or

grep -Fr 0.49 *

how to declare global variable in SQL Server..?

It is not possible to declare global variables in SQL Server. Sql server has a concept of global variables, but they are system defined and can not be extended.

obviously you can do all kinds of tricks with the SQL you are sending - SqlCOmmand has such a variable replacement mechanism for example - BEFORE you send it to SqlServer, but that is about it.

Adjusting and image Size to fit a div (bootstrap)

I had this same problem and stumbled upon the following simple solution. Just add a bit of padding to the image and it resizes itself to fit within the div.

<div class="col-sm-3">
  <img src="xxx.png" class="img-responsive" style="padding-top: 5px">
</div>

Why doesn't importing java.util.* include Arrays and Lists?

The difference between

import java.util.*;

and

import java.util.*;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.Arrays;

becomes apparent when the code refers to some other List or Arrays (for example, in the same package, or also imported generally). In the first case, the compiler will assume that the Arrays declared in the same package is the one to use, in the latter, since it is declared specifically, the more specific java.util.Arrays will be used.

Missing styles. Is the correct theme chosen for this layout?

How to use Simple Ajax Beginform in Asp.net MVC 4?

Simple example: Form with textbox and Search button.

If you write "name" into the textbox and submit form, it will brings you patients with "name" in table.

View:

@using (Ajax.BeginForm("GetPatients", "Patient", new AjaxOptions {//GetPatients is name of method in PatientController
    InsertionMode = InsertionMode.Replace, //target element(#patientList) will be replaced
    UpdateTargetId = "patientList",
    LoadingElementId = "loader" // div with .gif loader - that is shown when data are loading   
}))
{
    string patient_Name = "";
    @Html.EditorFor(x=>patient_Name) //text box with name and id, that it will pass to controller
    <input  type="submit" value="Search" />
}

@* ... *@
<div id="loader" class=" aletr" style="display:none">
    Loading...<img src="~/Images/ajax-loader.gif" />
</div>
@Html.Partial("_patientList") @* this is view with patient table. Same view you will return from controller *@

_patientList.cshtml:

@model IEnumerable<YourApp.Models.Patient>

<table id="patientList" >
<tr>
    <th>
        @Html.DisplayNameFor(model => model.Name)
    </th>
    <th>
        @Html.DisplayNameFor(model => model.Number)
    </th>       
</tr>
@foreach (var patient in Model) {
<tr>
    <td>
        @Html.DisplayFor(modelItem => patient.Name)
    </td>
    <td>
        @Html.DisplayFor(modelItem => patient.Number)
    </td>
</tr>
}
</table>

Patient.cs

public class Patient
{
   public string Name { get; set; }
   public int Number{ get; set; }
}

PatientController.cs

public PartialViewResult GetPatients(string patient_Name="")
{
   var patients = yourDBcontext.Patients.Where(x=>x.Name.Contains(patient_Name))
   return PartialView("_patientList", patients);
}

And also as TSmith said in comments, don´t forget to install jQuery Unobtrusive Ajax library through NuGet.

What is the difference between npm install and npm run build?
  • npm install installs the depedendencies in your package.json config.
  • npm run build runs the script "build" and created a script which runs your application - let's say server.js
  • npm start runs the "start" script which will then be "node server.js"

It's difficult to tell exactly what the issue was but basically if you look at your scripts configuration, I would guess that "build" uses some kind of build tool to create your application while "start" assumes the build has been done but then fails if the file is not there.

You are probably using bower or grunt - I seem to remember that a typical grunt application will have defined those scripts as well as a "clean" script to delete the last build.

Build tools tend to create a file in a bin/, dist/, or build/ folder which the start script then calls - e.g. "node build/server.js". When your npm start fails, it is probably because you called npm clean or similar to delete the latest build so your application file is not present causing npm start to fail.

npm build's source code - to touch on the discussion in this question - is in github for you to have a look at if you like. If you run npm build directly and you have a "build" script defined, it will exit with an error asking you to call your build script as npm run-script build so it's not the same as npm run script.

I'm not quite sure what npm build does, but it seems to be related to postinstall and packaging scripts in dependencies. I assume that this might be making sure that any CLI build scripts's or native libraries required by dependencies are built for the specific environment after downloading the package. This will be why link and install call this script.

Why do you need to put #!/bin/bash at the beginning of a script file?

It's called a shebang. In unix-speak, # is called sharp (like in music) or hash (like hashtags on twitter), and ! is called bang. (You can actually reference your previous shell command with !!, called bang-bang). So when put together, you get haSH-BANG, or shebang.

The part after the #! tells Unix what program to use to run it. If it isn't specified, it will try with bash (or sh, or zsh, or whatever your $SHELL variable is) but if it's there it will use that program. Plus, # is a comment in most languages, so the line gets ignored in the subsequent execution.

How to handle ListView click in Android

This solution is really minimalistic and doesn't mess up your code.

In your list_item.xml (NOT listView!) assign the attribute android:onClick like this:

<RelativeLayout android:onClick="onClickDoSomething">

and then in your activity call this method:

public void onClickDoSomething(View view) {
   // the view is the line you have clicked on
}

Convert SQL Server result set into string

Maven Jacoco Configuration - Exclude classes/packages from report not working

Your XML is slightly wrong, you need to add any class exclusions within an excludes parent field, so your above configuration should look like the following as per the Jacoco docs

<configuration>
    <excludes>
        <exclude>**/*Config.*</exclude>
        <exclude>**/*Dev.*</exclude>
    </excludes>
</configuration>

The values of the exclude fields should be class paths (not package names) of the compiled classes relative to the directory target/classes/ using the standard wildcard syntax

*   Match zero or more characters
**  Match zero or more directories
?   Match a single character

You may also exclude a package and all of its children/subpackages this way:

<exclude>some/package/**/*</exclude>

This will exclude every class in some.package, as well as any children. For example, some.package.child wouldn't be included in the reports either.

I have tested and my report goal reports on a reduced number of classes using the above.

If you are then pushing this report into Sonar, you will then need to tell Sonar to exclude these classes in the display which can be done in the Sonar settings

Settings > General Settings > Exclusions > Code Coverage

Sonar Docs explains it a bit more

Running your command above

mvn clean verify

Will show the classes have been excluded

No exclusions

With exclusions

Hope this helps

Python: read all text file lines in loop

Just iterate over each line in the file. Python automatically checks for the End of file and closes the file for you (using the with syntax).

with open('fileName', 'r') as f:
    for line in f:
       if 'str' in line:
           break

Xampp-mysql - "Table doesn't exist in engine" #1932

I have faced same issue but copying the xampp\mysql\data\ibdata1 was not solved my problem, because I install new version of xampp, if you upgrading your xampp first make backup from all htdocs and mysql folder, in my case I just backup the all xampp to the new folder like old-xampp then install new xampp and then you need do the following steps before starting your new xampp servers:

  1. Backup the phpmyadmin folder and ibdata1 from your new installation form this location xampp\mysql\data.
  2. Then Go to your old xampp folder old-xampp\mysql\data and copy the ibdata1 file and phpmyadmin from old location.
  3. Then open your new xampp folder xampp\mysql\data and past them there.
  4. Start the xampp servers.

<hibernate-mapping package="org.nkl.model" default-access="field">
  <class name="FieldBean" table="FIELD_BEAN">
    <id name="id">
      <generator class="sequence" />
    </id>
    <property name="message" />
  </class>
</hibernate-mapping>

<hibernate-mapping package="org.nkl.model" default-access="property">
  <class name="PropBean" table="PROP_BEAN">
    <id name="id">
      <generator class="sequence" />
    </id>
    <property name="message" />
  </class>
</hibernate-mapping>

And the following unit tests:

@Test
public void testFieldBean() {
    Session session = sessionFactory.openSession();
    Transaction tx = session.beginTransaction();
    FieldBean fb = new FieldBean("field");
    Long id = (Long) session.save(fb);
    tx.commit();
    session.close();

    session = sessionFactory.openSession();
    tx = session.beginTransaction();
    fb = (FieldBean) session.load(FieldBean.class, id);
    System.out.println(fb.getId());
    tx.commit();
    session.close();
}

@Test
public void testPropBean() {
    Session session = sessionFactory.openSession();
    Transaction tx = session.beginTransaction();
    PropBean pb = new PropBean("prop");
    Long id = (Long) session.save(pb);
    tx.commit();
    session.close();

    session = sessionFactory.openSession();
    tx = session.beginTransaction();
    pb = (PropBean) session.load(PropBean.class, id);
    System.out.println(pb.getId());
    tx.commit();
    session.close();
}

You will see the subtle difference in the selects required:

Hibernate: 
    call next value for hibernate_sequence
Hibernate: 
    insert 
    into
        FIELD_BEAN
        (message, id) 
    values
        (?, ?)
Hibernate: 
    select
        fieldbean0_.id as id1_0_,
        fieldbean0_.message as message1_0_ 
    from
        FIELD_BEAN fieldbean0_ 
    where
        fieldbean0_.id=?
0
Hibernate: 
    call next value for hibernate_sequence
Hibernate: 
    insert 
    into
        PROP_BEAN
        (message, id) 
    values
        (?, ?)
1

That is, calling fb.getId() requires a select, whereas pb.getId() does not.

C# binary literals

If you look at the language feature implementation status of the .NET Compiler Platform ("Roslyn") you can clearly see that in C# 6.0 this is a planned feature, so in the next release we can do it in the usual way.

Binary literal status

C#: How would I get the current time into a string?

 
string t = DateTime.Now.ToString("h/m/s tt");
string t2 = DateTime.Now.ToString("hh:mm:ss tt");
string d = DateTime.Now.ToString("MM/dd/yy");

Why Is Subtracting These Two Times (in 1927) Giving A Strange Result?

I'm sorry to say, but the time discontinuity has moved a bit in

JDK 6 two years ago, and in JDK 7 just recently in update 25.

Lesson to learn: avoid non-UTC times at all costs, except maybe for display.

The easiest way to replace white spaces with (underscores) _ in bash

This is borderline programming, but look into using tr:

$ echo "this is just a test" | tr -s ' ' | tr ' ' '_'

Should do it. The first invocation squeezes the spaces down, the second replaces with underscore. You probably need to add TABs and other whitespace characters, this is for spaces only.

Adding new line of data to TextBox

Following are the ways

  1. From the code (the way you have mentioned) ->

    displayBox.Text += sent + "\r\n";

    or

    displayBox.Text += sent + Environment.NewLine;

  2. From the UI
    a) WPF

    Set TextWrapping="Wrap" and AcceptsReturn="True"

    Press Enter key to the textbox and new line will be created

    b) Winform text box 

    Set TextBox.MultiLine and TextBox.AcceptsReturn to true

LINQ Group By and select collection

I think you want:

items.GroupBy(item => item.Order.Customer)
     .Select(group => new { Customer = group.Key, Items = group.ToList() })
     .ToList()

If you want to continue use the overload of GroupBy you are currently using, you can do:

items.GroupBy(item => item.Order.Customer, 
              (key, group) =>  new { Customer = key, Items = group.ToList() })
     .ToList()

...but I personally find that less clear.

Convert string to integer type in Go?

Try this

import ("strconv")

value := "123"
number,err := strconv.ParseUint(value, 10, 32)
finalIntNum := int(number) //Convert uint64 To int

How to install wkhtmltopdf on a linux based (shared hosting) web server

Shared hosting no ssh or shell access?

Here is how i did it;

  1. Visit https://wkhtmltopdf.org/downloads.html and download the appropriate stable release for Linux. For my case I chose 32-bit which is wkhtmltox-0.12.4_linux-generic-i386.tar.xz
  2. Unzip to a folder on your local drive.
  3. Upload the folder to public_html (or whichever location fits your need) using an FTP program just like any other file(s)
  4. Change the binary paths in snappy.php file to point the appropriate files in the folder you just uploaded. Bingo! there you have it. You should be able to generate PDF files.

What is Bootstrap?

Bootstrap is an open-source CSS, JavaScript framework that was originally developed for twitter application by twitter's team of designers and developers. Then they released it for open-source. Being a longtime user of twitter bootstrap I find that its one of the best for designing mobile ready responsive websites. Many CSS and Javascript plugins are available for designing your website in no time. It's kind of rapid template design framework. Some people complain that the bootstrap CSS files are heavy and take time to load but these claims are made by lazy people. You don't have to keep the complete bootstrap.css in your website. You always have the option to remove the styles for components that you do not need for your website. For example, if you are only using basic components like forms and buttons then you can remove other components like accordions etc from the main CSS file. To start dabbling in bootstrap you can download the basic templates and components from getbootstrap site and let the magic happen.

How can I determine whether a 2D Point is within a Polygon?

If you're using Google Map SDK and want to check if a point is inside a polygon, you can try to use GMSGeometryContainsLocation. It works great!! Here is how that works,

if GMSGeometryContainsLocation(point, polygon, true) {
    print("Inside this polygon.")
} else {
    print("outside this polygon")
}

Here is the reference: https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/ios-sdk/reference/group___geometry_utils#gaba958d3776d49213404af249419d0ffd

jQuery/JavaScript to replace broken images

I believe this is what you're after: jQuery.Preload

Here's the example code from the demo, you specify the loading and not found images and you're all set:

jQuery('#images img').preload({
  placeholder:'placeholder.jpg',
  notFound:'notfound.jpg'
});

string szCmdline = "AbsolutePathToYourExe\\ExeNameWithoutExtension";
ProcessAsUser.Launch(szCmdline);

What is http multipart request?

As the official specification says, "one or more different sets of data are combined in a single body". So when photos and music are handled as multipart messages as mentioned in the question, probably there is some plain text metadata associated as well, thus making the request containing different types of data (binary, text), which implies the usage of multipart.

Difference between static and shared libraries?

Static libraries are compiled as part of an application, whereas shared libraries are not. When you distribute an application that depends on shared libaries, the libraries, eg. dll's on MS Windows need to be installed.

The advantage of static libraries is that there are no dependencies required for the user running the application - e.g. they don't have to upgrade their DLL of whatever. The disadvantage is that your application is larger in size because you are shipping it with all the libraries it needs.

As well as leading to smaller applications, shared libraries offer the user the ability to use their own, perhaps better version of the libraries rather than relying on one that's part of the application

Return Type for jdbcTemplate.queryForList(sql, object, classType)

In order to map a the result set of query to a particular Java class you'll probably be best (assuming you're interested in using the object elsewhere) off with a RowMapper to convert the columns in the result set into an object instance.

See Section 12.2.1.1 of Data access with JDBC on how to use a row mapper.

In short, you'll need something like:

List<Conversation> actors = jdbcTemplate.query(
    SELECT_ALL_CONVERSATIONS_SQL_FULL,
    new Object[] {userId, dateFrom, dateTo},
    new RowMapper<Conversation>() {
        public Conversation mapRow(ResultSet rs, int rowNum) throws SQLException {
            Conversation c = new Conversation();
            c.setId(rs.getLong(1));
            c.setRoom(rs.getString(2));
            [...]
            return c;
        }
    });

Dynamic array in C#

Sometimes plain arrays are preferred to Generic Lists, since they are more convenient (Better performance for costly computation -Numerical Algebra Applications for example, or for exchanging Data with Statistics software like R or Matlab)

In this case you may use the ToArray() method after initiating your List dynamically 

List<string> list = new List<string>();
list.Add("one");
list.Add("two");
list.Add("three");

string[] array = list.ToArray();

Of course, this has sense only if the size of the array is never known nor fixed ex-ante. if you already know the size of your array at some point of the program it is better to initiate it as a fixed length array. (If you retrieve data from a ResultSet for example, you could count its size and initiate an array of that size, dynamically)

How to increase apache timeout directive in .htaccess?

Just in case this helps anyone else:

If you're going to be adding the TimeOut directive, and your website uses multiple vhosts (eg. one for port 80, one for port 443), then don't forget to add the directive to all of them!

Quick-and-dirty way to ensure only one instance of a shell script is running at a time

When targeting a Debian machine I find the lockfile-progs package to be a good solution. procmail also comes with a lockfile tool. However sometimes I am stuck with neither of these.

Here's my solution which uses mkdir for atomic-ness and a PID file to detect stale locks. This code is currently in production on a Cygwin setup and works well.

To use it simply call exclusive_lock_require when you need get exclusive access to something. An optional lock name parameter lets you share locks between different scripts. There's also two lower level functions (exclusive_lock_try and exclusive_lock_retry) should you need something more complex.

function exclusive_lock_try() # [lockname]
{

    local LOCK_NAME="${1:-`basename $0`}"

    LOCK_DIR="/tmp/.${LOCK_NAME}.lock"
    local LOCK_PID_FILE="${LOCK_DIR}/${LOCK_NAME}.pid"

    if [ -e "$LOCK_DIR" ]
    then
        local LOCK_PID="`cat "$LOCK_PID_FILE" 2> /dev/null`"
        if [ ! -z "$LOCK_PID" ] && kill -0 "$LOCK_PID" 2> /dev/null
        then
            # locked by non-dead process
            echo "\"$LOCK_NAME\" lock currently held by PID $LOCK_PID"

Operation is not valid due to the current state of the object, when I select a dropdown list

From http://codecorner.galanter.net/2012/06/04/solution-for-operation-is-not-valid-due-to-the-current-state-of-the-object-error/

Issue happens because Microsoft Security Update MS11-100 limits number of keys in Forms collection during HTTP POST request. To alleviate this problem you need to increase that number.

This can be done in your application Web.Config in the <appSettings> section (create the section directly under <configuration> if it doesn’t exist). Add 2 lines similar to the lines below to the section:

<add key="aspnet:MaxHttpCollectionKeys" value="2000" />
<add key="aspnet:MaxJsonDeserializerMembers" value="2000" />

The above example set the limit to 2000 keys. This will lift the limitation and the error should go away.

How to get file creation & modification date/times in Python?

os.stat does include the creation time. There's just no definition of st_anything for the element of os.stat() that contains the time.

So try this:

os.stat('feedparser.py')[8]

Compare that with your create date on the file in ls -lah

They should be the same.

Debugging with Android Studio stuck at "Waiting For Debugger" forever

Non of this solutions worked for me.

In my case was that I was debugging an App from Intellij IDEA and at the same time with Android Studio. By just closing the Intellij IDEA and removing the app I was debugging just fixed my problem.

Xcode Debugger: view value of variable

This gets a little complicated. These objects are custom classes or structs, and looking inside them is not as easy on Xcode as in other development environments.

If I were you, I'd NSLog the values you want to see, with some description.

i.e:

NSLog(@"Description of object & time: %i", indexPath.row);

Save Dataframe to csv directly to s3 Python

This is a more up to date answer:

import s3fs

s3 = s3fs.S3FileSystem(anon=False)

# Use 'w' for py3, 'wb' for py2
with s3.open('<bucket-name>/<filename>.csv','w') as f:
    df.to_csv(f)

The problem with StringIO is that it will eat away at your memory. With this method, you are streaming the file to s3, rather than converting it to string, then writing it into s3. Holding the pandas dataframe and its string copy in memory seems very inefficient.

If you are working in an ec2 instant, you can give it an IAM role to enable writing it to s3, thus you dont need to pass in credentials directly. However, you can also connect to a bucket by passing credentials to the S3FileSystem() function. See documention:https://s3fs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

How to set the height of an input (text) field in CSS?

Fragment onCreateView and onActivityCreated called twice

The two upvoted answers here show solutions for an Activity with navigation mode NAVIGATION_MODE_TABS, but I had the same issue with a NAVIGATION_MODE_LIST. It caused my Fragments to inexplicably lose their state when the screen orientation changed, which was really annoying. Thankfully, due to their helpful code I managed to figure it out.

Basically, when using a list navigation, ``onNavigationItemSelected()is automatically called when your activity is created/re-created, whether you like it or not. To prevent your Fragment'sonCreateView()from being called twice, this initial automatic call toonNavigationItemSelected()should check whether the Fragment is already in existence inside your Activity. If it is, return immediately, because there is nothing to do; if it isn't, then simply construct the Fragment and add it to the Activity like you normally would. Performing this check prevents your Fragment from needlessly being created again, which is what causesonCreateView()` to be called twice!

See my onNavigationItemSelected() implementation below.

public class MyActivity extends FragmentActivity implements ActionBar.OnNavigationListener
{
    private static final String STATE_SELECTED_NAVIGATION_ITEM = "selected_navigation_item";

    private boolean mIsUserInitiatedNavItemSelection;

    // ... constructor code, etc.

    @Override
    public void onRestoreInstanceState(Bundle savedInstanceState)
    {
        super.onRestoreInstanceState(savedInstanceState);

        if (savedInstanceState.containsKey(STATE_SELECTED_NAVIGATION_ITEM))
        {
            getActionBar().setSelectedNavigationItem(savedInstanceState.getInt(STATE_SELECTED_NAVIGATION_ITEM));
        }
    }

    @Override
    public void onSaveInstanceState(Bundle outState)
    {
        outState.putInt(STATE_SELECTED_NAVIGATION_ITEM, getActionBar().getSelectedNavigationIndex());

        super.onSaveInstanceState(outState);
    }

    @Override
    public boolean onNavigationItemSelected(int position, long id)
    {    
        Fragment fragment;
        switch (position)
        {
            // ... choose and construct fragment here
        }

        // is this the automatic (non-user initiated) call to onNavigationItemSelected()
        // that occurs when the activity is created/re-created?
        if (!mIsUserInitiatedNavItemSelection)
        {
            // all subsequent calls to onNavigationItemSelected() won't be automatic
            mIsUserInitiatedNavItemSelection = true;

            // has the same fragment already replaced the container and assumed its id?
            Fragment existingFragment = getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.container);
            if (existingFragment != null && existingFragment.getClass().equals(fragment.getClass()))
            {
                return true; //nothing to do, because the fragment is already there 
            }
        }

        getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction().replace(R.id.container, fragment).commit();
        return true;
    }
}

I borrowed inspiration for this solution from here.

What is difference between Implicit wait and Explicit wait in Selenium WebDriver?

My Thought,

Implicit Wait : If wait is set, it will wait for specified amount of time for each findElement/findElements call. It will throw an exception if action is not complete.

Explicit Wait : If wait is set, it will wait and move on to next step when the provided condition becomes true else it will throw an exception after waiting for specified time. Explicit wait is applicable only once wherever specified.

How to label each equation in align environment?

Within the environment align from the package amsmath it is possible to combine the use of \label and \tag for each equation or line. For example, the code:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{amsmath}

\begin{document}
Write
\begin{align}
x+y\label{eq:eq1}\tag{Aa}\\
x+z\label{eq:eq2}\tag{Bb}\\
y-z\label{eq:eq3}\tag{Cc}\\
y-2z\nonumber
\end{align}
then cite \eqref{eq:eq1} and \eqref{eq:eq2} or \eqref{eq:eq3} separately.
\end{document}

produces:

How can I scroll a web page using selenium webdriver in python?

You can use

driver.execute_script("window.scrollTo(0, Y)")

where Y is the height (on a fullhd monitor it's 1080). (Thanks to @lukeis)

You can also use

driver.execute_script("window.scrollTo(0, document.body.scrollHeight);")

to scroll to the bottom of the page.

If you want to scroll to a page with infinite loading, like social network ones, facebook etc. (thanks to @Cuong Tran)

SCROLL_PAUSE_TIME = 0.5

# Get scroll height
last_height = driver.execute_script("return document.body.scrollHeight")

while True:
    # Scroll down to bottom
    driver.execute_script("window.scrollTo(0, document.body.scrollHeight);")

    # Wait to load page
    time.sleep(SCROLL_PAUSE_TIME)

    # Calculate new scroll height and compare with last scroll height
    new_height = driver.execute_script("return document.body.scrollHeight")
    if new_height == last_height:
        break
    last_height = new_height

another method (thanks to Juanse) is, select an object and 

label.sendKeys(Keys.PAGE_DOWN);

Heap space out of memory

If you are using a lot of memory and facing memory leaks, then you might want to check if you are using a large number of ArrayLists or HashMaps with many elements each.

An ArrayList is implemented as a dynamic array. The source code from Sun/Oracle shows that when a new element is inserted into a full ArrayList, a new array of 1.5 times the size of the original array is created, and the elements copied over. What this means is that you could be wasting up to 50% of the space in each ArrayList you use, unless you call its trimToSize method. Or better still, if you know the number of elements you are going to insert before hand, then call the constructor with the initial capacity as its argument.

I did not examine the source code for HashMap very carefully, but at a first glance it appears that the array length in each HashMap must be a power of two, making it another implementation of a dynamic array. Note that HashSet is essentially a wrapper around HashMap.

How can I move HEAD back to a previous location? (Detached head) & Undo commits

The question can be read as:

I was in detached-state with HEAD at 23b6772 and typed git reset origin/master (because I wanted to squash). Now I've changed my mind, how do I go back to HEAD being at 23b6772?

The straightforward answer being: git reset 23b6772

But I hit this question because I got sick of typing (copy & pasting) commit hashes or its abbreviation each time I wanted to reference the previous HEAD and was Googling to see if there were any kind of shorthand.

It turns out there is!

git reset - (or in my case git cherry-pick -)

Which incidentally was the same as cd - to return to the previous current directory in *nix! So hurrah, I learned two things with one stone.

Laravel - display a PDF file in storage without forcing download?

Ben Swinburne answer was so helpful.

The code below is for those who have their PDF file in database like me. 

$pdf = DB::table('exportfiles')->select('pdf')->where('user_id', $user_id)->first();

return Response::make(base64_decode( $pdf->pdf), 200, [
    'Content-Type' => 'application/pdf',
    'Content-Disposition' => 'inline; filename="'.$filename.'"',
]);

Where $pdf->pdf is the file column in database.

How can I add a string to the end of each line in Vim?

Even shorter than the :search command:

 A*      = append '*' to the end of current line

CSS Selector "(A or B) and C"?

UL or DIV vertical scrollbar

Sometimes it is not eligible to set height to pixel values. However, it is possible to show vertical scrollbar through setting height of div to 100% and overflow to auto.

Let me show an example:

<div id="content" style="height: 100%; overflow: auto">
  <p>some text</p>
  <ul>
    <li>text</li>
    .....
    <li>text</li>
</div>

How to send HTML-formatted email?

Best way to send html formatted Email

This code will be in "Customer.htm"

    <table>
    <tr>
        <td>
            Dealer's Company Name
        </td>
        <td>
            :
        </td>
        <td>
            #DealerCompanyName#
        </td>
    </tr>
</table>

Read HTML file Using System.IO.File.ReadAllText. get all HTML code in string variable.

string Body = System.IO.File.ReadAllText(HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath("EmailTemplates/Customer.htm"));

Replace Particular string to your custom value.

Body = Body.Replace("#DealerCompanyName#", _lstGetDealerRoleAndContactInfoByCompanyIDResult[0].CompanyName);

call SendEmail(string Body) Function and do procedure to send email.

 public static void SendEmail(string Body)
        {
            MailMessage message = new MailMessage();
            message.From = new MailAddress(Session["Email"].Tostring());
            message.To.Add(ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings["RequesEmail"].ToString());
            message.Subject = "Request from " + SessionFactory.CurrentCompany.CompanyName + " to add a new supplier";
            message.IsBodyHtml = true;
            message.Body = Body;

            SmtpClient smtpClient = new SmtpClient();
            smtpClient.UseDefaultCredentials = true;

            smtpClient.Host = ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings["SMTP"].ToString();
            smtpClient.Port = Convert.ToInt32(ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings["PORT"].ToString());
            smtpClient.EnableSsl = true;
            smtpClient.Credentials = new System.Net.NetworkCredential(ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings["USERNAME"].ToString(), ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings["PASSWORD"].ToString());
            smtpClient.Send(message);
        }

Get text from pressed button

The view you get passed in on onClick() is the Button you are looking for.

public void onClick(View v) {
    // 1) Possibly check for instance of first 
    Button b = (Button)v;
    String buttonText = b.getText().toString();
}

1) If you are using a non-anonymous class as onClickListener, you may want to check for the type of the view before casting it, as it may be something different than a Button.

java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError

The code was most likely compiled with a later JDK (without using cross-compilation options) and is being run on an earlier JRE. While upgrading the JRE is one solution, it would be better to use the cross-compilation options to ensure the code will run on whatever JRE is intended as the minimum version for the app.

Detect and exclude outliers in Pandas data frame

ssh script returns 255 error

I was stumped by this. Once I got passed the 255 problem... I ended up with a mysterious error code 1. This is the foo to get that resolved:

 pssh -x '-tt' -h HOSTFILELIST -P "sudo yum -y install glibc"

-P means write the output out as you go and is optional. But the -x '-tt' trick is what forces a psuedo tty to be allocated.

You can get a clue what the error code 1 means this if you try:

ssh AHOST "sudo yum -y install glibc"

You may see:

[slc@bastion-ci ~]$ ssh MYHOST "sudo yum -y install glibc"
sudo: sorry, you must have a tty to run sudo
[slc@bastion-ci ~]$ echo $?
1

Notice the return code for this is 1, which is what pssh is reporting to you.

I found this -x -tt trick here. Also note that turning on verbose mode (pssh --verbose) for these cases does nothing to help you.

CSS transition effect makes image blurry / moves image 1px, in Chrome?

I had a similar problem with blurry text but only the succeeding div was affected. For some reason the next div after the one that I was doing the transform in was blurry.

I tried everything that is recommended in this thread but nothing worked. For me rearranging my divs worked. I moved the div that blurres the following div to the end of parents div.

If someone know why just let me know.

#before
<header class="container">
      <div class="transformed div">
          <span class="transform wrapper">
            <span class="transformed"></span>
            <span class="transformed"></span>
          </span>
       </div>
       <div class="affected div">
       </div>
     </header>

#after
<header class="container">
   <div class="affected div">
   </div>
  <div class="transformed div">
      <span class="transform wrapper">
        <span class="transformed"></span>
        <span class="transformed"></span>
      </span>
   </div>

grep exclude multiple strings

Another option is to create a exclude list, this is particulary usefull when you have a long list of things to exclude.

vi /root/scripts/exclude_list.txt

Now add what you would like to exclude

Nopaging the limit is
keyword to remove is

Now use grep to remove lines from your file log file and view information not excluded.

grep -v -f /root/scripts/exclude_list.txt /var/log/admin.log

How do I enumerate through a JObject?

For people like me, linq addicts, and based on svick's answer, here a linq approach:

using System.Linq;
//...
//make it linq iterable. 
var obj_linq = Response.Cast<KeyValuePair<string, JToken>>();

Now you can make linq expressions like:

JToken x = obj_linq
          .Where( d => d.Key == "my_key")
          .Select(v => v)
          .FirstOrDefault()
          .Value;
string y = ((JValue)x).Value;

Or just:

var y = obj_linq
       .Where(d => d.Key == "my_key")
       .Select(v => ((JValue)v.Value).Value)
       .FirstOrDefault();

Or this one to iterate over all data:

obj_linq.ToList().ForEach( x => { do stuff } );

A button to start php script, how?

Having 2 files like you suggested would be the easiest solution.

For instance:

2 files solution:

index.html

(.. your html ..)
<form action="script.php" method="get">
  <input type="submit" value="Run me now!">
</form>
(...)

script.php

<?php
  echo "Hello world!"; // Your code here
?>

Single file solution:

index.php

<?php
  if (!empty($_GET['act'])) {
    echo "Hello world!"; //Your code here
  } else {
?>
(.. your html ..)
<form action="index.php" method="get">
  <input type="hidden" name="act" value="run">
  <input type="submit" value="Run me now!">
</form>
<?php
  }
?>

How can I implement custom Action Bar with custom buttons in Android?

enter image description here

This is pretty much as close as you'll get if you want to use the ActionBar APIs. I'm not sure you can place a colorstrip above the ActionBar without doing some weird Window hacking, it's not worth the trouble. As far as changing the MenuItems goes, you can make those tighter via a style. It would be something like this, but I haven't tested it.

<style name="MyTheme" parent="android:Theme.Holo.Light">
    <item name="actionButtonStyle">@style/MyActionButtonStyle</item>
</style>

<style name="MyActionButtonStyle" parent="Widget.ActionButton">
    <item name="android:minWidth">28dip</item>
</style>

Here's how to inflate and add the custom layout to your ActionBar.

    // Inflate your custom layout
    final ViewGroup actionBarLayout = (ViewGroup) getLayoutInflater().inflate(
            R.layout.action_bar,
            null);

    // Set up your ActionBar
    final ActionBar actionBar = getActionBar();
    actionBar.setDisplayShowHomeEnabled(false);
    actionBar.setDisplayShowTitleEnabled(false);
    actionBar.setDisplayShowCustomEnabled(true);
    actionBar.setCustomView(actionBarLayout);

    // You customization
    final int actionBarColor = getResources().getColor(R.color.action_bar);
    actionBar.setBackgroundDrawable(new ColorDrawable(actionBarColor));

    final Button actionBarTitle = (Button) findViewById(R.id.action_bar_title);
    actionBarTitle.setText("Index(2)");

    final Button actionBarSent = (Button) findViewById(R.id.action_bar_sent);
    actionBarSent.setText("Sent");

    final Button actionBarStaff = (Button) findViewById(R.id.action_bar_staff);
    actionBarStaff.setText("Staff");

    final Button actionBarLocations = (Button) findViewById(R.id.action_bar_locations);
    actionBarLocations.setText("HIPPA Locations");

Here's the custom layout:

<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:enabled="false"
    android:orientation="horizontal"
    android:paddingEnd="8dip" >

    <Button
        android:id="@+id/action_bar_title"
        style="@style/ActionBarButtonWhite" />

    <Button
        android:id="@+id/action_bar_sent"
        style="@style/ActionBarButtonOffWhite" />

    <Button
        android:id="@+id/action_bar_staff"
        style="@style/ActionBarButtonOffWhite" />

    <Button
        android:id="@+id/action_bar_locations"
        style="@style/ActionBarButtonOffWhite" />

</LinearLayout>

Here's the color strip layout: To use it, just use merge in whatever layout you inflate in setContentView.

<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="@dimen/colorstrip"
    android:background="@android:color/holo_blue_dark" />

Here are the Button styles:

<style name="ActionBarButton">
    <item name="android:layout_width">wrap_content</item>
    <item name="android:layout_height">wrap_content</item>
    <item name="android:background">@null</item>
    <item name="android:ellipsize">end</item>
    <item name="android:singleLine">true</item>
    <item name="android:textSize">@dimen/text_size_small</item>
</style>

<style name="ActionBarButtonWhite" parent="@style/ActionBarButton">
    <item name="android:textColor">@color/white</item>
</style>

<style name="ActionBarButtonOffWhite" parent="@style/ActionBarButton">
    <item name="android:textColor">@color/off_white</item>
</style>

Here are the colors and dimensions I used:

<color name="action_bar">#ff0d0d0d</color>
<color name="white">#ffffffff</color>
<color name="off_white">#99ffffff</color>

<!-- Text sizes -->
<dimen name="text_size_small">14.0sp</dimen>
<dimen name="text_size_medium">16.0sp</dimen>

<!-- ActionBar color strip -->
<dimen name="colorstrip">5dp</dimen>

If you want to customize it more than this, you may consider not using the ActionBar at all, but I wouldn't recommend that. You may also consider reading through the Android Design Guidelines to get a better idea on how to design your ActionBar.

If you choose to forgo the ActionBar and use your own layout instead, you should be sure to add action-able Toasts when users long press your "MenuItems". This can be easily achieved using this Gist.

How to do a newline in output

Actually you don't even need the block:

  Dir.chdir 'C:/Users/name/Music'
  music = Dir['C:/Users/name/Music/*.{mp3, MP3}']
  puts 'what would you like to call the playlist?'
  playlist_name = gets.chomp + '.m3u'

  File.open(playlist_name, 'w').puts(music)

JWT authentication for ASP.NET Web API

I've managed to achieve it with minimal effort (just as simple as with ASP.NET Core).

For that I use OWIN Startup.cs file and Microsoft.Owin.Security.Jwt library.

In order for the app to hit Startup.cs we need to amend Web.config:

<configuration>
  <appSettings>
    <add key="owin:AutomaticAppStartup" value="true" />
    ...

Here's how Startup.cs should look:

using MyApp.Helpers;
using Microsoft.IdentityModel.Tokens;
using Microsoft.Owin;
using Microsoft.Owin.Security;
using Microsoft.Owin.Security.Jwt;
using Owin;

[assembly: OwinStartup(typeof(MyApp.App_Start.Startup))]

namespace MyApp.App_Start
{
    public class Startup
    {
        public void Configuration(IAppBuilder app)
        {
            app.UseJwtBearerAuthentication(
                new JwtBearerAuthenticationOptions
                {
                    AuthenticationMode = AuthenticationMode.Active,
                    TokenValidationParameters = new TokenValidationParameters()
                    {
                        ValidAudience = ConfigHelper.GetAudience(),
                        ValidIssuer = ConfigHelper.GetIssuer(),
                        IssuerSigningKey = ConfigHelper.GetSymmetricSecurityKey(),
                        ValidateLifetime = true,
                        ValidateIssuerSigningKey = true
                    }
                });
        }
    }
}

Many of you guys use ASP.NET Core nowadays, so as you can see it doesn't differ a lot from what we have there.

It really got me perplexed first, I was trying to implement custom providers, etc. But I didn't expect it to be so simple. OWIN just rocks!

Just one thing to mention - after I enabled OWIN Startup NSWag library stopped working for me (e.g. some of you might want to auto-generate typescript HTTP proxies for Angular app).

The solution was also very simple - I replaced NSWag with Swashbuckle and didn't have any further issues.

Ok, now sharing ConfigHelper code:

public class ConfigHelper
{
    public static string GetIssuer()
    {
        string result = System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["Issuer"];
        return result;
    }

    public static string GetAudience()
    {
        string result = System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["Audience"];
        return result;
    }

    public static SigningCredentials GetSigningCredentials()
    {
        var result = new SigningCredentials(GetSymmetricSecurityKey(), SecurityAlgorithms.HmacSha256);
        return result;
    }

    public static string GetSecurityKey()
    {
        string result = System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["SecurityKey"];
        return result;
    }

    public static byte[] GetSymmetricSecurityKeyAsBytes()
    {
        var issuerSigningKey = GetSecurityKey();
        byte[] data = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(issuerSigningKey);
        return data;
    }

    public static SymmetricSecurityKey GetSymmetricSecurityKey()
    {
        byte[] data = GetSymmetricSecurityKeyAsBytes();
        var result = new SymmetricSecurityKey(data);
        return result;
    }

    public static string GetCorsOrigins()
    {
        string result = System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["CorsOrigins"];
        return result;
    }
}

Another important aspect - I sent JWT Token via Authorization header, so typescript code looks for me as follows:

(the code below is generated by NSWag)

@Injectable()
export class TeamsServiceProxy {
    private http: HttpClient;
    private baseUrl: string;
    protected jsonParseReviver: ((key: string, value: any) => any) | undefined = undefined;

    constructor(@Inject(HttpClient) http: HttpClient, @Optional() @Inject(API_BASE_URL) baseUrl?: string) {
        this.http = http;
        this.baseUrl = baseUrl ? baseUrl : "https://localhost:44384";
    }

    add(input: TeamDto | null): Observable<boolean> {
        let url_ = this.baseUrl + "/api/Teams/Add";
        url_ = url_.replace(/[?&]$/, "");

        const content_ = JSON.stringify(input);

        let options_ : any = {
            body: content_,
            observe: "response",
            responseType: "blob",
            headers: new HttpHeaders({
                "Content-Type": "application/json", 
                "Accept": "application/json",
                "Authorization": "Bearer " + localStorage.getItem('token')
            })
        };

See headers part - "Authorization": "Bearer " + localStorage.getItem('token')

How can I search for a commit message on GitHub?

You used to be able to do this, but GitHub removed this feature at some point mid-2013. To achieve this locally, you can do:

git log -g --grep=STRING

(Use the -g flag if you want to search other branches and dangling commits.)

-g, --walk-reflogs
    Instead of walking the commit ancestry chain, walk reflog entries from
    the most recent one to older ones.

Is it possible to run JavaFX applications on iOS, Android or Windows Phone 8?
  1. yes you can run it on iOS and Android (Win8 is not supported!
  2. no deployment as a web-app does not work

Call a python function from jinja2

For those using Flask, put this in your __init__.py:

def clever_function():
    return u'HELLO'

app.jinja_env.globals.update(clever_function=clever_function)

and in your template call it with {{ clever_function() }}

How to change the ROOT application?

the context.xml configuration didn't work for me. Tomcat 6.0.29 complains about the docBase being inside the appBase: ... For Tomcat 5 this did actually work.

So one solution is to put the application in the ROOT folder.

Another very simple solution is to put an index.jsp to ROOT that redirects to my application like this: response.sendRedirect("/MyApplicationXy");

Perform an action in every sub-directory using Bash

You could try: 

#!/bin/bash
### $1 == the first args to this script
### usage: script.sh /path/to/dir/

for f in `find . -maxdepth 1 -mindepth 1 -type d`; do
  cd "$f"
  <your job here>
done

or similar...

Explanation:

find . -maxdepth 1 -mindepth 1 -type d : Only find directories with a maximum recursive depth of 1 (only the subdirectories of $1) and minimum depth of 1 (excludes current folder .)

libstdc++-6.dll not found

useful to windows users who use eclipse for c/c++ but run *.exe file and get an error: "missing libstdc++6.dll"

4 ways to solve it

  1. Eclipse ->"Project" -> "Properties" -> "C/C++ Build" -> "Settings" -> "Tool Settings" -> "MinGW C++ Linker" -> "Misscellaneous" -> "Linker flags" (add '-static' to it)

  2. Add '{{the path where your MinGW was installed}}/bin' to current user environment variable - "Path" in Windows, then reboot eclipse, and finally recompile.

  3. Add '{{the path where your MinGW was installed}}/bin' to Windows environment variable - "Path", then reboot eclipse, and finally recompile.

  4. Copy the file "libstdc++-6.dll" to the path where the *.exe file is running, then rerun. (this is not a good way)

Note: the file "libstdc++-6.dll" is in the folder '{{the path where your MinGW was installed}}/bin'

Passing arguments to "make run"

Here is my example. Note that I am writing under Windows 7, using mingw32-make.exe that comes with Dev-Cpp. (I have c:\Windows\System32\make.bat, so the command is still called "make".)

clean:
    $(RM) $(OBJ) $(BIN) 
    @echo off
    if "${backup}" NEQ "" ( mkdir ${backup} 2> nul && copy * ${backup} )

Usage for regular cleaning:

make clean

Usage for cleaning and creating a backup in mydir/:

make clean backup=mydir

What does a circled plus mean?

People are saying that the symbol doesn't mean addition. This is true, but doesn't explain why a plus-like symbol is used for something that isn't addition.

The answer is that for modulo addition of 1-bit values, 0+0 == 1+1 == 0, and 0+1 == 1+0 == 1. Those are the same values as XOR.

So, plus in a circle in this context means "bitwise addition modulo-2". Which is, as everyone says, XOR for integers. It's common in mathematics to use plus in a circle for an operation which is a sort of addition, but isn't regular integer addition.

DataTable, How to conditionally delete rows

I don't have a windows box handy to try this but I think you can use a DataView and do something like so:

DataView view = new DataView(ds.Tables["MyTable"]);
view.RowFilter = "MyValue = 42"; // MyValue here is a column name

// Delete these rows.
foreach (DataRowView row in view)
{
  row.Delete();
}

I haven't tested this, though. You might give it a try.

How to get row count using ResultSet in Java?

If you have table and storing the ID as primary and auto increment then this will work

Example code to get the total row count http://www.java2s.com/Tutorial/Java/0340__Database/GettheNumberofRowsinaDatabaseTable.htm

Below is code

import java.sql.Connection;
import java.sql.DriverManager;
import java.sql.ResultSet;
import java.sql.ResultSetMetaData;
import java.sql.Statement;

public class Main {
  public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
    Connection conn = getConnection();
    Statement st = conn.createStatement(ResultSet.TYPE_SCROLL_INSENSITIVE,
        ResultSet.CONCUR_UPDATABLE);

    st.executeUpdate("create table survey (id int,name varchar(30));");
    st.executeUpdate("insert into survey (id,name ) values (1,'nameValue')");
    st.executeUpdate("insert into survey (id,name ) values (2,null)");
    st.executeUpdate("insert into survey (id,name ) values (3,'Tom')");
    st = conn.createStatement();
    ResultSet rs = st.executeQuery("SELECT * FROM survey");

    rs = st.executeQuery("SELECT COUNT(*) FROM survey");
    // get the number of rows from the result set
    rs.next();
    int rowCount = rs.getInt(1);
    System.out.println(rowCount);

    rs.close();
    st.close();
    conn.close();

  }

  private static Connection getConnection() throws Exception {
    Class.forName("org.hsqldb.jdbcDriver");
    String url = "jdbc:hsqldb:mem:data/tutorial";

    return DriverManager.getConnection(url, "sa", "");
  }
}

How can I find the first and last date in a month using PHP?

In simple format

   $curMonth = date('F');
   $curYear  = date('Y');
   $timestamp    = strtotime($curMonth.' '.$curYear);
   $first_second = date('Y-m-01 00:00:00', $timestamp);
   $last_second  = date('Y-m-t 12:59:59', $timestamp);

For next month change $curMonth to $curMonth = date('F',strtotime("+1 months"));

first-child and last-child with IE8

Since :last-child is a CSS3 pseudo-class, it is not supported in IE8. I believe :first-child is supported, as it's defined in the CSS2.1 specification.

One possible solution is to simply give the last child a class name and style that class.

Another would be to use JavaScript. jQuery makes this particularly easy as it provides a :last-child pseudo-class which should work in IE8. Unfortunately, that could result in a flash of unstyled content while the DOM loads.

SQLite Reset Primary Key Field

You can reset by update sequence after deleted rows in your-table

What is sr-only in Bootstrap 3?

As JoshC said, the class .sr-only is used to visually hide the information used for screen readers only. But not only to hide labels. You might consider hiding various other elements such as "skip to main content" link, icons which have an alternative texts etc.

BTW. you can also use .sr-only sr-only-focusable if you need the element to become visible when focused e.g. "skip to main content"

If you want make your website even more accessible I recommend to start here:

Why?

According to the World Health Organization, 285 million people have vision impairments. So making a website accessible is important.

IMPORTANT: Avoid treating disabled users differently. Generally speaking try to avoid developing a different content for different groups of users. Instead try to make accessible the existing content so that it simply works out-of-the-box and for all not specifically targeting e.g. screen readers. In other words don't try to reinvent the wheel. Otherwise the resulting accessibility will often be worse than if there was nothing developed at all. We developers should not assume how those users will use our website. So be very careful when you need to develop such solutions. Obviously a "skip link" is a good example of such content if it's made visible when focused. But there many bad examples too. Such would be hiding from a screen reader a "zoom" button on the map assuming that it has no relevance to blind users. But surprisingly, a zoom function indeed is used among blind users! They like to download images like many other users do (even in high resolution), for sending them to somebody else or for using them in some other context.

Change background image opacity

Responding to an earlier comment, you can change the background by variable in the "container" example if the CSS is in your php page and not in the css style sheet.

What is the difference between tinyint, smallint, mediumint, bigint and int in MySQL?

When it gets to real world usage of these datatypes, it is very important that you understand that using certain integer types could just be an overkill or under used. For example, using integer datatype for employeeCount in a table say employee could be an overkill since it supports a range of integer values from ~ negative 2 billion to positive 2 billion or zero to approximately 4 billion (unsigned). So, even if you consider one of the US biggest employer such as Walmart with roughly about 2.2 million employees using an integer datatype for the employeeCount column would be unnecessary. In such a case you use mediumint (that supports from 0 to 16 million (unsigned)) for example. Having said that if your range is expected to be unusually large you might consider bigint which as you can see from Daniel's notes supports a range larger than I care to decipher.

MVC4 Passing model from view to controller

I hope this complete example will help you.

This is the TaxiInfo class which holds information about a taxi ride:

namespace Taxi.Models
{
    public class TaxiInfo
    {
        public String Driver { get; set; }
        public Double Fare { get; set; }
        public Double Distance { get; set; }
        public String StartLocation { get; set; }
        public String EndLocation { get; set; }
    }
}

We also have a convenience model which holds a List of TaxiInfo(s):

namespace Taxi.Models
{
    public class TaxiInfoSet
    {
        public List<TaxiInfo> TaxiInfoList { get; set; }

        public TaxiInfoSet(params TaxiInfo[] TaxiInfos)
        {
            TaxiInfoList = new List<TaxiInfo>();

            foreach(var TaxiInfo in TaxiInfos)
            {
                TaxiInfoList.Add(TaxiInfo);
            }
        }
    }
}

Now in the home controller we have the default Index action which for this example makes two taxi drivers and adds them to the list contained in a TaxiInfo:

public ActionResult Index()
{
    var taxi1 = new TaxiInfo() { Fare = 20.2, Distance = 15, Driver = "Billy", StartLocation = "Perth", EndLocation = "Brisbane" };
    var taxi2 = new TaxiInfo() { Fare = 2339.2, Distance = 1500, Driver = "Smith", StartLocation = "Perth", EndLocation = "America" };

    return View(new TaxiInfoSet(taxi1,taxi2));
}

The code for the view is as follows:

@model Taxi.Models.TaxiInfoSet
@{
    ViewBag.Title = "Index";
}

<h2>Index</h2>

@foreach(var TaxiInfo in Model.TaxiInfoList){
    <form>
        <h1>Cost: [email protected]</h1>
        <h2>Distance: @(TaxiInfo.Distance) km</h2>
        <p>
            Our diver, @TaxiInfo.Driver will take you from @TaxiInfo.StartLocation to @TaxiInfo.EndLocation
        </p>
        @Html.ActionLink("Home","Booking",TaxiInfo)
    </form>
}

The ActionLink is responsible for the re-directing to the booking action of the Home controller (and passing in the appropriate TaxiInfo object) which is defiend as follows:

    public ActionResult Booking(TaxiInfo Taxi)
    {
        return View(Taxi);
    }

This returns a the following view:

@model Taxi.Models.TaxiInfo

@{
    ViewBag.Title = "Booking";
}

<h2>Booking For</h2>
<h1>@Model.Driver, going from @Model.StartLocation to @Model.EndLocation (a total of @Model.Distance km) for [email protected]</h1>

How to pass a value from one Activity to another in Android?

Standard way of passing data from one activity to another:

If you want to send large number of data from one activity to another activity then you can put data in a bundle and then pass it using putExtra() method.

//Create the `intent`
 Intent i = new Intent(this, ActivityTwo.class);
String one="xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx";
String two="xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx";
//Create the bundle
Bundle bundle = new Bundle();
//Add your data to bundle
bundle.putString(“ONE”, one);
bundle.putString(“TWO”, two);  
//Add the bundle to the intent
i.putExtras(bundle);
//Fire that second activity
startActivity(i);

otherwise you can use putExtra() directly with intent to send data and getExtra() to get data.

Intent i=new Intent(this, ActivityTwo.class);
i.putExtra("One",one);
i.putExtra("Two",two);
startActivity(i);

conversion from string to json object android

To get a JSONObject or JSONArray from a String I've created this class: 

public static class JSON {

     public Object obj = null;
     public boolean isJsonArray = false;

     JSON(Object obj, boolean isJsonArray){
         this.obj = obj;
         this.isJsonArray = isJsonArray;
     }
}

Here to get the JSON:

public static JSON fromStringToJSON(String jsonString){

    boolean isJsonArray = false;
    Object obj = null;

    try {
        JSONArray jsonArray = new JSONArray(jsonString);
        Log.d("JSON", jsonArray.toString());
        obj = jsonArray;
        isJsonArray = true;
    }
    catch (Throwable t) {
        Log.e("JSON", "Malformed JSON: \"" + jsonString + "\"");
    }

    if (object == null) {
        try {
            JSONObject jsonObject = new JSONObject(jsonString);
            Log.d("JSON", jsonObject.toString());
            obj = jsonObject;
            isJsonArray = false;
        } catch (Throwable t) {
            Log.e("JSON", "Malformed JSON: \"" + jsonString + "\"");
        }
    }

    return new JSON(obj, isJsonArray);
}

Example:

JSON json = fromStringToJSON("{\"message\":\"ciao\"}");
if (json.obj != null) {

    // If the String is a JSON array
    if (json.isJsonArray) {
        JSONArray jsonArray = (JSONArray) json.obj;
    }
    // If it's a JSON object
    else {
        JSONObject jsonObject = (JSONObject) json.obj;
    }

The code above doesn't set the value of the input element nor does it fire a change event. The code below works in Chrome and Firefox (not tested in other browsers):

$('input[type="date"]').click(function(e){
     e.preventDefault();
}).datepicker({
    onSelect: function(dateText){
        var d = new Date(dateText),
        dv = d.getFullYear().toString().pad(4)+'-'+(d.getMonth()+1).toString().pad(2)+'-'+d.getDate().toString().pad(2);
        $(this).val(dv).trigger('change');
    }
});

pad is a simple custom String method to pad strings with zeros (required)

Characters allowed in GET parameter

"." | "!" | "~" | "*" | "'" | "(" | ")" are also acceptable [RFC2396]. Really, anything can be in a GET parameter if it is properly encoded.

Sum up a column from a specific row down

Something like this worked for me (references columns C and D from the row 8 till the end of the columns, in Excel 2013 if relevant):

=SUMIFS(INDIRECT(ADDRESS(ROW(D$8), COLUMN())&":"&ADDRESS(ROWS($C:$C), COLUMN())),INDIRECT("C$8:C"&ROWS($C:$C)),$C$2)

Multiple WHERE Clauses with LINQ extension methods

If you working with in-memory data (read "collections of POCO") you may also stack your expressions together using PredicateBuilder like so:

// initial "false" condition just to start "OR" clause with
var predicate = PredicateBuilder.False<YourDataClass>();

if (condition1)
{
    predicate = predicate.Or(d => d.SomeStringProperty == "Tom");
}

if (condition2)
{
    predicate = predicate.Or(d => d.SomeStringProperty == "Alex");
}

if (condition3)
{
    predicate = predicate.And(d => d.SomeIntProperty >= 4);
}

return originalCollection.Where<YourDataClass>(predicate.Compile());

The full source of mentioned PredicateBuilder is bellow (but you could also check the original page with a few more examples):

using System;
using System.Linq;
using System.Linq.Expressions;
using System.Collections.Generic;

public static class PredicateBuilder
{
  public static Expression<Func<T, bool>> True<T> ()  { return f => true;  }
  public static Expression<Func<T, bool>> False<T> () { return f => false; }

  public static Expression<Func<T, bool>> Or<T> (this Expression<Func<T, bool>> expr1,
                                                      Expression<Func<T, bool>> expr2)
  {
    var invokedExpr = Expression.Invoke (expr2, expr1.Parameters.Cast<Expression> ());
    return Expression.Lambda<Func<T, bool>>
          (Expression.OrElse (expr1.Body, invokedExpr), expr1.Parameters);
  }

  public static Expression<Func<T, bool>> And<T> (this Expression<Func<T, bool>> expr1,
                                                       Expression<Func<T, bool>> expr2)
  {
    var invokedExpr = Expression.Invoke (expr2, expr1.Parameters.Cast<Expression> ());
    return Expression.Lambda<Func<T, bool>>
          (Expression.AndAlso (expr1.Body, invokedExpr), expr1.Parameters);
  }
}

Note: I've tested this approach with Portable Class Library project and have to use .Compile() to make it work:

Where(predicate .Compile() );

commandButton/commandLink/ajax action/listener method not invoked or input value not set/updated

One more possibility: if the symptom is that the first invocation works, but subsequent ones do not, you may be using PrimeFaces 3.x with JSF 2.2, as detailed here: No ViewState is sent.

Executing multiple commands from a Windows cmd script

When you call another .bat file, I think you need "call" in front of the call:

call otherCommand.bat

cannot make a static reference to the non-static field

Just write:

private static double balance = 0;

and you could also write those like that:

private static int id = 0;
private static double annualInterestRate = 0;
public static java.util.Date dateCreated;

Spring Boot Remove Whitelabel Error Page

If you want a more "JSONish" response page you can try something like that:

@RestController
@RequestMapping("/error")
public class SimpleErrorController implements ErrorController {

  private final ErrorAttributes errorAttributes;

  @Autowired
  public SimpleErrorController(ErrorAttributes errorAttributes) {
    Assert.notNull(errorAttributes, "ErrorAttributes must not be null");
    this.errorAttributes = errorAttributes;
  }

  @Override
  public String getErrorPath() {
    return "/error";
  }

  @RequestMapping
  public Map<String, Object> error(HttpServletRequest aRequest){
     Map<String, Object> body = getErrorAttributes(aRequest,getTraceParameter(aRequest));
     String trace = (String) body.get("trace");
     if(trace != null){
       String[] lines = trace.split("\n\t");
       body.put("trace", lines);
     }
     return body;
  }

  private boolean getTraceParameter(HttpServletRequest request) {
    String parameter = request.getParameter("trace");
    if (parameter == null) {
        return false;
    }
    return !"false".equals(parameter.toLowerCase());
  }

  private Map<String, Object> getErrorAttributes(HttpServletRequest aRequest, boolean includeStackTrace) {
    RequestAttributes requestAttributes = new ServletRequestAttributes(aRequest);
    return errorAttributes.getErrorAttributes(requestAttributes, includeStackTrace);
  }
}

How to take input in an array + PYTHON?

 
data = []
n = int(raw_input('Enter how many elements you want: '))
for i in range(0, n):
    x = raw_input('Enter the numbers into the array: ')
    data.append(x)
print(data)

Now this doesn't do any error checking and it stores data as a string.

Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected end of JSON input at JSON.parse (<anonymous>)

You are calling:

JSON.parse(scatterSeries)

But when you defined scatterSeries, you said:

var scatterSeries = [];

When you try to parse it as JSON it is converted to a string (""), which is empty, so you reach the end of the string before having any of the possible content of a JSON text.

scatterSeries is not JSON. Do not try to parse it as JSON.

data is not JSON either (getJSON will parse it as JSON automatically).

ch is JSON … but shouldn't be. You should just create a plain object in the first place:

var ch = {
    "name": "graphe1",
    "items": data.results[1]
};

scatterSeries.push(ch);

In short, for what you are doing, you shouldn't have JSON.parse anywhere in your code. The only place it should be is in the jQuery library itself.

Is there a way to get rid of accents and convert a whole string to regular letters?

As of 2011 you can use Apache Commons StringUtils.stripAccents(input) (since 3.0):

    String input = StringUtils.stripAccents("Thïs iš â funky Štring");
    System.out.println(input);
    // Prints "This is a funky String"

Note:

The accepted answer (Erick Robertson's) doesn't work for Ø or L. Apache Commons 3.5 doesn't work for Ø either, but it does work for L. After reading the Wikipedia article for Ø, I'm not sure it should be replaced with "O": it's a separate letter in Norwegian and Danish, alphabetized after "z". It's a good example of the limitations of the "strip accents" approach.

How can I get the intersection, union, and subset of arrays in Ruby?

If Multiset extends from the Array class

x = [1, 1, 2, 4, 7]
y = [1, 2, 2, 2]
z = [1, 1, 3, 7]

UNION

x.union(y)           # => [1, 2, 4, 7]      (ONLY IN RUBY 2.6)
x.union(y, z)        # => [1, 2, 4, 7, 3]   (ONLY IN RUBY 2.6)
x | y                # => [1, 2, 4, 7]

DIFFERENCE

x.difference(y)      # => [4, 7] (ONLY IN RUBY 2.6)
x.difference(y, z)   # => [4] (ONLY IN RUBY 2.6)
x - y                # => [4, 7]

INTERSECTION

x & y                # => [1, 2]

Please explain about insertable=false and updatable=false in reference to the JPA @Column annotation

I would like to add to the answers of BalusC and Pascal Thivent another common use of insertable=false, updatable=false:

Consider a column that is not an id but some kind of sequence number. The responsibility for calculating the sequence number may not necessarily belong to the application.

For example, sequence number starts with 1000 and should increment by one for each new entity. This is easily done, and very appropriately so, in the database, and in such cases these configurations makes sense.

Reverse Singly Linked List Java

I think your problem is that your initially last element next attribute isn't being changed becuase of your condition

if(next == null)
     return;

Is at the beginning of your loop.

I would move it right after tmp.next has been assigned:

while(tmp != null){

  tmp.next = before;
  if(next == null)
     return;
  before = tmp;
  tmp = next;
  next = next.next;
}

MS Access DB Engine (32-bit) with Office 64-bit

I had a more specifc error message that stated to remove 'Office 16 Click-to-Run Extensibility Component'

I fixed it by following the steps in https://www.tecklyfe.com/fix-for-microsoft-office-setup-error-please-uninstall-all-32-bit-office-programs-office-15-click-to-run-extensibility-component/

  • Go to Start > Run (or Winkey + R)
  • Type “installer” (that opens the %windir%installer folder), make sure all files are visible in Windows (Folder Settings)
  • Add the column “Subject” (and make it at least 400 pixels wide) – Right click on the column headers, click More, then find Subject
  • Sort on the Subject column and scroll down until you locate the name mentioned in your error screen (“Office 16 Click-to-Run Extensibility Component”)
  • Right click the MSI and choose uninstall

How do I find out which keystore was used to sign an app?

To build on Paul Lammertsma's answer, this command will print the names and signatures of all APKs in the current dir (I'm using sh because later I need to pipe the output to grep):

How do you reinstall an app's dependencies using npm?

The easiest way that I can see is delete node_modules folder and execute npm install.

Angular2: child component access parent class variable/function

If you use input property databinding with a JavaScript reference type (e.g., Object, Array, Date, etc.), then the parent and child will both have a reference to the same/one object. Any changes you make to the shared object will be visible to both parent and child.

In the parent's template:

<child [aList]="sharedList"></child>

In the child:

@Input() aList;
...
updateList() {
    this.aList.push('child');
}

If you want to add items to the list upon construction of the child, use the ngOnInit() hook (not the constructor(), since the data-bound properties aren't initialized at that point):

ngOnInit() {
    this.aList.push('child1')
}

This Plunker shows a working example, with buttons in the parent and child component that both modify the shared list.

Note, in the child you must not reassign the reference. E.g., don't do this in the child: this.aList = someNewArray; If you do that, then the parent and child components will each have references to two different arrays.

If you want to share a primitive type (i.e., string, number, boolean), you could put it into an array or an object (i.e., put it inside a reference type), or you could emit() an event from the child whenever the primitive value changes (i.e., have the parent listen for a custom event, and the child would have an EventEmitter output property. See @kit's answer for more info.)

Update 2015/12/22: the heavy-loader example in the Structural Directives guides uses the technique I presented above. The main/parent component has a logs array property that is bound to the child components. The child components push() onto that array, and the parent component displays the array.

jQuery won't parse my JSON from AJAX query

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

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

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

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

How can I properly use a PDO object for a parameterized SELECT query

A litle bit complete answer is here with all ready for use:

    $sql = "SELECT `username` FROM `users` WHERE `id` = :id";
    $q = $dbh->prepare($sql);
    $q->execute(array(':id' => "4"));
    $done= $q->fetch();

 echo $done[0];

Here $dbh is PDO db connecter, and based on id from table users we've get the username using fetch();

I hope this help someone, Enjoy!

remote: repository not found fatal: not found

Three things:

  1. Your GitHub username is not an email address. It should be a username (like "sethvargo")

  2. You have a trailing slash on your repo name:

    $ git remote rm origin
$ git remote add origin https://github.com/pete/first_app.git

  3. You need to create the first_app repo. I looked at "pete" on GitHub, and I do not see the repository. You must first create the remote repository before you may push.

Route.get() requires callback functions but got a "object Undefined"

There are two routes for get:

app.get('/', main.index);
todoRouter.get('/',todo.all);

Error: Route.get() requires callback functions but got a [object Undefined] This exception is thrown when route.getdoes not get a callback function. As you have defined todo.all in todo.js file, but it is unable to find main.index. That's why it works once you define main.index file later on in the tutorial.

XAMPP on Windows - Apache not starting

I had my Apache service not start same as MySQL one. Please follow these steps if none of above tips works :

  1. Open regedit.exe on any windows this available . Run as administrator. (Only on windows 7 and later editions )
    1. Go to local machine/system/controlset001/services
    2. Find and delete folders of services apache and mysql .
    3. Uninstall xampp . Delete folder of xampp.
    4. Restart computer and reinstall Xampp . After that your Xampp apache and Mysql should work. 
Note: Ports 80 and 443 must be unused by any program. 
      If it is in use . Just edit ports. There is a lot of tutorials about that .

Custom Input[type="submit"] style not working with jquerymobile button

I'm assume you cannot get css working for your button using anchor tag. So you need to override the css styles which are being overwritten by other elements using !important property.

HTML

<a href="#" class="selected_btn" data-role="button">Button name</a>

CSS

.selected_btn
{
    border:1px solid red;
    text-decoration:none;
    font-family:helvetica;
    color:red !important;            
    background:url('http://www.lessardstephens.com/layout/images/slideshow_big.png') repeat-x;
}

Here is the demo

SQL Server : trigger how to read value for Insert, Update, Delete

Here is the syntax to create a trigger:

CREATE TRIGGER trigger_name
ON { table | view }
[ WITH ENCRYPTION ]
{
    { { FOR | AFTER | INSTEAD OF } { [ INSERT ] [ , ] [ UPDATE ] [ , ] [ DELETE ] }
        [ WITH APPEND ]
        [ NOT FOR REPLICATION ]
        AS
        [ { IF UPDATE ( column )
            [ { AND | OR } UPDATE ( column ) ]
                [ ...n ]
        | IF ( COLUMNS_UPDATED ( ) { bitwise_operator } updated_bitmask )
                { comparison_operator } column_bitmask [ ...n ]
        } ]
        sql_statement [ ...n ]
    }
}

If you want to use On Update you only can do it with the IF UPDATE ( column ) section. That's not possible to do what you are asking.

CSS root directory

This problem that the "../" means step up (parent folder) link "../images/img.png" will not work because when you are using ajax like data passing to the web site from the server.

What you have to do is point the image location to root with "./" then the second folder (in this case the second folder is "images")

url("./images/img.png")

if you have folders like this

root -> content -> images

then you use url("./content/images/img.png"), remember your image will not visible in the editor window but when it passed to the browser using ajax it will display.

Media Queries - In between two widths

@Jonathan Sampson i think your solution is wrong if you use multiple @media.

You should use (min-width first):

@media screen and (min-width:400px) and (max-width:900px){
   ...
}

A Postback is an action taken by an interactive webpage, when the entire page and its contents are sent to the server for processing some information and then, the server posts the same page back to the browser.

How to check for a valid URL in Java?

Judging by the source code for URI, the

public URL(URL context, String spec, URLStreamHandler handler)

constructor does more validation than the other constructors. You might try that one, but YMMV.

How does delete[] know it's an array?

I had a similar question to this. In C, you allocate memory with malloc() (or another similar function), and delete it with free(). There is only one malloc(), which simply allocates a certain number of bytes. There is only one free(), which simply takes a pointer as it's parameter.

So why is it that in C you can just hand over the pointer to free, but in C++ you must tell it whether it's an array or a single variable?

The answer, I've learned, has to do with class destructors.

If you allocate an instance of a class MyClass...

classes = new MyClass[3];

And delete it with delete, you may only get the destructor for the first instance of MyClass called. If you use delete[], you can be assured that the destructor will be called for all instances in the array.

THIS is the important difference. If you're simply working with standard types (e.g. int) you won't really see this issue. Plus, you should remember that behavior for using delete on new[] and delete[] on new is undefined--it may not work the same way on every compiler/system.

"dd/mm/yyyy" date format in excel through vba

I got it

Cells(1, 1).Value = StartDate

Basically, I need to set the cell format, instead of setting the date.

How to parse a JSON file in swift?

Parsing JSON in Swift is an excellent job for code generation. I've created a tool at http://www.guideluxe.com/JsonToSwift to do just that.

You supply a sample JSON object with a class name and the tool will generate a corresponding Swift class, as well as any needed subsidiary Swift classes, to represent the structure implied by the sample JSON. Also included are class methods used to populate Swift objects, including one that utilizes the NSJSONSerialization.JSONObjectWithData method. The necessary mappings from the NSArray and NSDictionary objects are provided.

From the generated code, you only need to supply an NSData object containing JSON that matches the sample provided to the tool.

Other than Foundation, there are no dependencies.

My work was inspired by http://json2csharp.com/, which is very handy for .NET projects.

Here's how to create an NSData object from a JSON file.

let fileUrl: NSURL = NSBundle.mainBundle().URLForResource("JsonFile", withExtension: "json")!
let jsonData: NSData = NSData(contentsOfURL: fileUrl)!

How to give the background-image path in CSS?

There are two basic ways:

url(../../images/image.png)

or

url(/Web/images/image.png)

I prefer the latter, as it's easier to work with and works from all locations in the site (so useful for inline image paths too).

Mind you, I wouldn't do so much deep nesting of folders. It seems unnecessary and makes life a bit difficult, as you've found.

OpenCV error: the function is not implemented

If it's giving you errors with gtk, try qt.

sudo apt-get install libqt4-dev
cmake -D WITH_QT=ON ..
make
sudo make install

If this doesn't work, there's an easy way out.

sudo apt-get install libopencv-*

This will download all the required dependencies(although it seems that you have all the required libraries installed, but still you could try it once). This will probably install OpenCV 2.3.1 (Ubuntu 12.04). But since you have OpenCV 2.4.3 in /usr/local/lib include this path in /etc/ld.so.conf and do ldconfig. So now whenever you use OpenCV, you'd use the latest version. This is not the best way to do it but if you're still having problems with qt or gtk, try this once. This should work.

Update - 18th Jun 2019

I got this error on my Ubuntu(18.04.1 LTS) system for openCV 3.4.2, as the method call to cv2.imshow was failing (e.g., at the line of cv2.namedWindow(name) with error: cv2.error: OpenCV(3.4.2). The function is not implemented.). I am using anaconda. Just the below 2 steps helped me resolve:

conda remove opencv
conda install -c conda-forge opencv=4.1.0

If you are using pip, you can try 

pip install opencv-contrib-python

How to dynamically create a class?

Wow! Thank you for that answer! I added some features to it to create a "datatable to json" converter that I share with you.

    Public Shared Sub dt2json(ByVal _dt As DataTable, ByVal _sb As StringBuilder)
    Dim t As System.Type

    Dim oList(_dt.Rows.Count - 1) As Object
    Dim jss As New JavaScriptSerializer()
    Dim i As Integer = 0

    t = CompileResultType(_dt)

    For Each dr As DataRow In _dt.Rows
        Dim o As Object = Activator.CreateInstance(t)

        For Each col As DataColumn In _dt.Columns
            setvalue(o, col.ColumnName, dr.Item(col.ColumnName))
        Next

        oList(i) = o
        i += 1
    Next

    jss = New JavaScriptSerializer()
    jss.Serialize(oList, _sb)


End Sub

And in "compileresulttype" sub, I changed that:

    For Each column As DataColumn In _dt.Columns
        CreateProperty(tb, column.ColumnName, column.DataType)
    Next


Private Shared Sub setvalue(ByVal _obj As Object, ByVal _propName As String, ByVal _propValue As Object)
    Dim pi As PropertyInfo
    pi = _obj.GetType.GetProperty(_propName)
    If pi IsNot Nothing AndAlso pi.CanWrite Then
        If _propValue IsNot DBNull.Value Then
            pi.SetValue(_obj, _propValue, Nothing)

        Else
            Select Case pi.PropertyType.ToString
                Case "System.String"
                    pi.SetValue(_obj, String.Empty, Nothing)
                Case Else
                    'let the serialiser use javascript "null" value.
            End Select

        End If
    End If

End Sub

print highest value in dict with key

The clue is to work with the dict's items (i.e. key-value pair tuples). Then by using the second element of the item as the max key (as opposed to the dict key) you can easily extract the highest value and its associated key.

 mydict = {'A':4,'B':10,'C':0,'D':87}
>>> max(mydict.items(), key=lambda k: k[1])
('D', 87)
>>> min(mydict.items(), key=lambda k: k[1])
('C', 0)

Can I use if (pointer) instead of if (pointer != NULL)?

As others already answered well, they both are interchangeable.

Nonetheless, it's worth mentioning that there could be a case where you may want to use the explicit statement, i.e. pointer != NULL.

Set active tab style with AngularJS

Bootstrap example.

If you are using Angulars built in routing (ngview) this directive can be used:

angular.module('myApp').directive('classOnActiveLink', [function() {
    return {
        link: function(scope, element, attrs) {

            var anchorLink = element.children()[0].getAttribute('ng-href') || element.children()[0].getAttribute('href');
            anchorLink = anchorLink.replace(/^#/, '');

            scope.$on("$routeChangeSuccess", function (event, current) {
                if (current.$$route.originalPath == anchorLink) {
                    element.addClass(attrs.classOnActiveLink);
                }
                else {
                    element.removeClass(attrs.classOnActiveLink);
                }
            });

        }
    };
}]);

Assuming your markup looks like this:

    <ul class="nav navbar-nav">
        <li class-on-active-link="active"><a href="/orders">Orders</a></li>
        <li class-on-active-link="active"><a href="/distributors">Distributors</a></li>
    </ul>

I like this was of doing it since you can set the class name you want in your attribute.

How does one convert a grayscale image to RGB in OpenCV (Python)?

One you convert your image to gray-scale you cannot got back. You have gone from three channel to one, when you try to go back all three numbers will be the same. So the short answer is no you cannot go back. The reason your backtorgb function this throwing that error is because it needs to be in the format:

CvtColor(input, output, CV_GRAY2BGR)

OpenCV use BGR not RGB, so if you fix the ordering it should work, though your image will still be gray.

jQuery limit to 2 decimal places

Here is a working example in both Javascript and jQuery:

    var new_num = $("#textbox").val(num.toFixed(2));
});


// In javascript
document.getElementById('calculate').onclick = function() {
    var num = parseFloat(document.getElementById('textbox').value);
    var new_num = num.toFixed(2);
    document.getElementById('textbox').value = new_num;
};

How do I declare class-level properties in Objective-C?

As seen on WWDC 2016/XCode 8 (what's new in LLVM session @5:05). Class properties can be declared as follows

@interface MyType : NSObject
@property (class) NSString *someString;
@end

NSLog(@"format string %@", MyType.someString);

Note that class properties are never synthesized

@implementation
static NSString * _someString;
+ (NSString *)someString { return _someString; }
+ (void)setSomeString:(NSString *)newString { _someString = newString; }
@end

Take a list of numbers and return the average

You want to iterate through the list, sum all the numbers, and then divide the sum by the number of elements in the list. You can use a for loop to accomplish this.

average = 0
sum = 0    
for n in numbers:
    sum = sum + n
average = sum / len(numbers)

The for loop looks at each element in the list, and then adds it to the current sum. You then divide by the length of the list (or the number of elements in the list) to find the average.

I would recommend googling a python reference to find out how to use common programming concepts like loops and conditionals so that you feel comfortable when starting out. There are lots of great resources online that you could look up.

Good luck!

Counting duplicates in Excel

If you perhaps also want to eliminate all of the duplicates and keep only a single one of each

Change the formula =COUNTIF(A:A,A2) to =COUNIF($A$2:A2,A2) and drag the formula down. Then autofilter for anything greater than 1 and you can delete them.

Difference between int32, int, int32_t, int8 and int8_t

Between int32 and int32_t, (and likewise between int8 and int8_t) the difference is pretty simple: the C standard defines int8_t and int32_t, but does not define anything named int8 or int32 -- the latter (if they exist at all) is probably from some other header or library (most likely predates the addition of int8_t and int32_t in C99).

Plain int is quite a bit different from the others. Where int8_t and int32_t each have a specified size, int can be any size >= 16 bits. At different times, both 16 bits and 32 bits have been reasonably common (and for a 64-bit implementation, it should probably be 64 bits).

On the other hand, int is guaranteed to be present in every implementation of C, where int8_t and int32_t are not. It's probably open to question whether this matters to you though. If you use C on small embedded systems and/or older compilers, it may be a problem. If you use it primarily with a modern compiler on desktop/server machines, it probably won't be.

Oops -- missed the part about char. You'd use int8_t instead of char if (and only if) you want an integer type guaranteed to be exactly 8 bits in size. If you want to store characters, you probably want to use char instead. Its size can vary (in terms of number of bits) but it's guaranteed to be exactly one byte. One slight oddity though: there's no guarantee about whether a plain char is signed or unsigned (and many compilers can make it either one, depending on a compile-time flag). If you need to ensure its being either signed or unsigned, you need to specify that explicitly.
