Wait Until File Is Completely Written
When the file is writing in binary(byte by byte),create FileStream and above solutions Not working,because file is ready and wrotted in every bytes,so in this Situation you need other workaround like this:
Do this when file created or you want to start processing on file
long fileSize = 0;
currentFile = new FileInfo(path);
while (fileSize < currentFile.Length)//check size is stable or increased
{
fileSize = currentFile.Length;//get current size
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(500);//wait a moment for processing copy
currentFile.Refresh();//refresh length value
}
//Now file is ready for any process!
Using .Select and .Where in a single LINQ statement
Did you add the Select()
after the Where()
or before?
You should add it after, because of the concurrency logic:
1 Take the entire table
2 Filter it accordingly
3 Select only the ID's
4 Make them distinct.
If you do a Select first, the Where clause can only contain the ID attribute because all other attributes have already been edited out.
Update: For clarity, this order of operators should work:
db.Items.Where(x=> x.userid == user_ID).Select(x=>x.Id).Distinct();
Probably want to add a .toList()
at the end but that's optional :)
Creating a generic method in C#
I like to start with a class like this
class settings
{
public int X {get;set;}
public string Y { get; set; }
// repeat as necessary
public settings()
{
this.X = defaultForX;
this.Y = defaultForY;
// repeat ...
}
public void Parse(Uri uri)
{
// parse values from query string.
// if you need to distinguish from default vs. specified, add an appropriate property
}
This has worked well on 100's of projects. You can use one of the many other parsing solutions to parse values.
Long Press in JavaScript?
jQuery plugin. Just put $(expression).longClick(function() { <your code here> });
. Second parameter is hold duration; default timeout is 500 ms.
(function($) {
$.fn.longClick = function(callback, timeout) {
var timer;
timeout = timeout || 500;
$(this).mousedown(function() {
timer = setTimeout(function() { callback(); }, timeout);
return false;
});
$(document).mouseup(function() {
clearTimeout(timer);
return false;
});
};
})(jQuery);
How to change the background color on a input checkbox with css?
I always use pseudo elements :before
and :after
for changing the appearance of checkboxes and radio buttons. it's works like a charm.
Refer this link for more info
CODEPEN
Steps
- Hide the default checkbox using css rules like
visibility:hidden
or opacity:0
or position:absolute;left:-9999px
etc.
- Create a fake checkbox using
:before
element and pass either an empty or a non-breaking space '\00a0'
;
- When the checkbox is in
:checked
state, pass the unicode content: "\2713"
, which is a checkmark;
- Add
:focus
style to make the checkbox accessible.
- Done
Here is how I did it.

Check key exist in python dict
Use the in
keyword.
if 'apples' in d:
if d['apples'] == 20:
print('20 apples')
else:
print('Not 20 apples')
If you want to get the value only if the key exists (and avoid an exception trying to get it if it doesn't), then you can use the get
function from a dictionary, passing an optional default value as the second argument (if you don't pass it it returns None
instead):
if d.get('apples', 0) == 20:
print('20 apples.')
else:
print('Not 20 apples.')
How to get the input from the Tkinter Text Widget?
I did come also in search of how to get input data from the Text widget. Regarding the problem with a new line on the end of the string. You can just use .strip() since it is a Text widget that is always a string.
Also, I'm sharing code where you can see how you can create multiply Text widgets and save them in the dictionary as form data, and then by clicking the submit button get that form data and do whatever you want with it. I hope it helps others. It should work in any 3.x python and probably will work in 2.7 also.
from tkinter import *
from functools import partial
class SimpleTkForm(object):
def __init__(self):
self.root = Tk()
def myform(self):
self.root.title('My form')
frame = Frame(self.root, pady=10)
form_data = dict()
form_fields = ['username', 'password', 'server name', 'database name']
cnt = 0
for form_field in form_fields:
Label(frame, text=form_field, anchor=NW).grid(row=cnt,column=1, pady=5, padx=(10, 1), sticky="W")
textbox = Text(frame, height=1, width=15)
form_data.update({form_field: textbox})
textbox.grid(row=cnt,column=2, pady=5, padx=(3,20))
cnt += 1
conn_test = partial(self.test_db_conn, form_data=form_data)
Button(frame, text='Submit', width=15, command=conn_test).grid(row=cnt,column=2, pady=5, padx=(3,20))
frame.pack()
self.root.mainloop()
def test_db_conn(self, form_data):
data = {k:v.get('1.0', END).strip() for k,v in form_data.items()}

JPanel setBackground(Color.BLACK) does nothing
In order to completely set the background to a given color :
1) set first the background color
2) call method "Clear(0,0,this.getWidth(),this.getHeight())" (width and height of the component paint area)
I think it is the basic procedure to set the background...
I've had the same problem.
Another usefull hint : if you want to draw BUT NOT in a specific zone (something like a mask or a "hole"), call the setClip() method of the graphics with the "hole" shape (any shape) and then call the Clear() method (background should previously be set to the "hole" color).
You can make more complicated clip zones by calling method clip() (any times you want) AFTER calling method setClip() to have intersections of clipping shapes.
I didn't find any method for unions or inversions of clip zones, only intersections, too bad...
Hope it helps
<code> vs <pre> vs <samp> for inline and block code snippets
Use <code>
for inline code that can wrap and <pre><code>
for block code that must not wrap. <samp>
is for sample output, so I would avoid using it to represent sample code (which the reader is to input). This is what Stack Overflow does.
(Better yet, if you want easy to maintain, let the users edit the articles as Markdown, then they don’t have to remember to use <pre><code>
.)
HTML5 agrees with this in “the pre
element”:
The pre element represents a block of preformatted text, in which structure is represented by typographic conventions rather than by elements.
Some examples of cases where the pre element could be used:
- Including fragments of computer code, with structure indicated according to the conventions of that language.
[…]
To represent a block of computer code, the pre element can be used with a code element; to represent a block of computer output the pre element can be used with a samp element. Similarly, the kbd element can be used within a pre element to indicate text that the user is to enter.
In the following snippet, a sample of computer code is presented.

Install this.
Run these in an elevated PS session:

install-module MSOnline
I was then able to log in and run what I needed.
Django: OperationalError No Such Table
It looks like there was an issue with my migration.
I ran ./manage.py schemamigration research --auto

So, I ran ./manage.py schemamigration research --init
followed by ./manage.py migrate research
Rerunning the server from there did the trick!
PHP check if file is an image
The getimagesize() should be the most definite way of working out whether the file is an image:
if(@is_array(getimagesize($mediapath))){
$image = true;
} else {
$image = false;
}
because this is a sample getimagesize() output:
Array (
[0] => 800
[1] => 450
[2] => 2
[3] => width="800" height="450"
[bits] => 8
[channels] => 3
[mime] => image/jpeg)

How do I check if a variable is of a certain type (compare two types) in C?
Gnu GCC has a builtin function for comparing types __builtin_types_compatible_p
.
https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-3.4.5/gcc/Other-Builtins.html
This built-in function returns 1 if the unqualified versions of the
types type1 and type2 (which are types, not expressions) are
compatible, 0 otherwise. The result of this built-in function can be
used in integer constant expressions.
This built-in function ignores top level qualifiers (e.g., const,
volatile). For example, int is equivalent to const int.
Used in your example:
double doubleVar;
if(__builtin_types_compatible_p(typeof(doubleVar), double)) {
printf("doubleVar is of type double!");
}

Python assigning multiple variables to same value? list behavior
What you need is this:

a = 1 # `a` did equal 0, not [0,3,5]
print(a)
print(b)
print(c)
Resize HTML5 canvas to fit window
A pure CSS approach adding to solution of @jerseyboy above.
Works in Firefox (tested in v29), Chrome (tested in v34) and Internet Explorer (tested in v11).
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style>
html,
body {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
margin: 0;
}
canvas {
background-color: #ccc;
display: block;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
right: 0;
bottom: 0;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<canvas id="canvas" width="500" height="500"></canvas>
<script>
var canvas = document.getElementById('canvas');
if (canvas.getContext) {
var ctx = canvas.getContext('2d');
ctx.fillRect(25,25,100,100);
ctx.clearRect(45,45,60,60);
ctx.strokeRect(50,50,50,50);
}
</script>
</body>
</html>
Link to the example: http://temporaer.net/open/so/140502_canvas-fit-to-window.html
But take care, as @jerseyboy states in his comment:
Rescaling canvas with CSS is troublesome. At least on Chrome and
Safari, mouse/touch event positions will not correspond 1:1 with
canvas pixel positions, and you'll have to transform the coordinate
systems.
What does "to stub" mean in programming?
RPC Stubs
- Basically, a client-side stub is a procedure that looks to the client as if it were a callable server procedure.
- A server-side stub looks to the server as if it's a calling client.
- The client program thinks it is calling the server; in fact, it's calling the client stub.
- The server program thinks it's called by the client; in fact, it's called by the server stub.
- The stubs send messages to each other to make the RPC happen.

Principal Component Analysis (PCA) in Python
UPDATE: matplotlib.mlab.PCA
is since release 2.2 (2018-03-06) indeed deprecated.
The library matplotlib.mlab.PCA
(used in this answer) is not deprecated. So for all the folks arriving here via Google, I'll post a complete working example tested with Python 2.7.
Use the following code with care as it uses a now deprecated library!
from matplotlib.mlab import PCA
import numpy
data = numpy.array( [[3,2,5], [-2,1,6], [-1,0,4], [4,3,4], [10,-5,-6]] )
pca = PCA(data)
Now in `pca.Y' is the original data matrix in terms of the principal components basis vectors. More details about the PCA object can be found here.
>>> pca.Y
array([[ 0.67629162, -0.49384752, 0.14489202],
[ 1.26314784, 0.60164795, 0.02858026],
[ 0.64937611, 0.69057287, -0.06833576],
[ 0.60697227, -0.90088738, -0.11194732],
[-3.19578784, 0.10251408, 0.00681079]])
You can use matplotlib.pyplot
to draw this data, just to convince yourself that the PCA yields "good" results. The names
list is just used to annotate our five vectors.
import matplotlib.pyplot
names = [ "A", "B", "C", "D", "E" ]
matplotlib.pyplot.scatter(pca.Y[:,0], pca.Y[:,1])
for label, x, y in zip(names, pca.Y[:,0], pca.Y[:,1]):
matplotlib.pyplot.annotate( label, xy=(x, y), xytext=(-2, 2), textcoords='offset points', ha='right', va='bottom' )
matplotlib.pyplot.show()
Looking at our original vectors we'll see that data[0] ("A") and data[3] ("D") are rather similar as are data[1] ("B") and data[2] ("C"). This is reflected in the 2D plot of our PCA transformed data.
What is the facade design pattern?
Its simply creating a wrapper to call multiple methods .
You have an A
class with method x()
and y()
and B
class with method k()
and z()
.
You want to call x, y, z at once , to do that using Facade pattern you just create a Facade class and create a method lets say xyz()
.
Instead of calling each method (x,y and z) individually you just call the wrapper method (xyz()
) of the facade class which calls those methods .
Similar pattern is repository but it s mainly for the data access layer.
How to do a "Save As" in vba code, saving my current Excel workbook with datestamp?
Most likely the path you are trying to access does not exist. It seems you are trying to save to a relative location and you do not have an file extension in that string. If you need to use relative paths you can parse the path from ActiveWorkbook.FullName
EDIT:
Better syntax would also be
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:=myFileName, FileFormat:=xlWorkbookNormal
Print an ArrayList with a for-each loop
Your code works. If you don't have any output, you may have "forgotten" to add some values to the list:
// add values
list.add("one");
list.add("two");
// your code
for (String object: list) {
System.out.println(object);
}
Insert picture into Excel cell
Now we can add a picture to Excel directly and easely. Just follow these instructions:
- Go to the Insert tab.
- Click on the Pictures option (it’s in the illustrations group).
- In the ‘Insert Picture’ dialog box, locate the pictures that you
want to insert into a cell in Excel.
- Click on the Insert button.
- Re-size the picture/image so that it can fit perfectly within the
cell.
- Place the picture in the cell. A cool way to do this is to first
press the ALT key and then move the picture with the mouse. It will
snap and arrange itself with the border of the cell as soon it comes
close to it.
If you have multiple images, you can select and insert all the images at once (as shown in step 4).
You can also resize images by selecting it and dragging the edges. In the case of logos or product images, you may want to keep the aspect ratio of the image intact. To keep the aspect ratio intact, use the corners of an image to resize it.
When you place an image within a cell using the steps above, it will not stick with the cell in case you resize, filter, or hide the cells. If you want the image to stick to the cell, you need to lock the image to the cell it’s placed n.
To do this, you need to follow the additional steps as shown below.
- Right-click on the picture and select Format Picture.
- In the Format Picture pane, select Size & Properties and with the
options in Properties, select ‘Move and size with cells’.
Now you can move cells, filter it, or hide it, and the picture will also move/filter/hide.
NOTE:
This answer was taken from this link: Insert Picture into a Cell in Excel.
make html text input field grow as I type?
Which approach you use, of course, depends on what your end goal is. If you want to submit the results with a form then using native form elements means you don't have to use scripting to submit. Also, if scripting is turned off then the fallback still works without the fancy grow-shrink effects. If you want to get the plain text out of a contenteditable element you can always also use scripting like node.textContent to strip out the html that the browsers insert in the user input.
This version uses native form elements with slight refinements on some of the previous posts.
It allows the content to shrink as well.
Use this in combination with CSS for better control.
<html>
<textarea></textarea>
<br>
<input type="text">
<style>
textarea {
width: 300px;
min-height: 100px;
}
input {
min-width: 300px;
}
<script>
document.querySelectorAll('input[type="text"]').forEach(function(node) {
var minWidth = parseInt(getComputedStyle(node).minWidth) || node.clientWidth;
node.style.overflowX = 'auto'; // 'hidden'
node.onchange = node.oninput = function() {
node.style.width = minWidth + 'px';
node.style.width = node.scrollWidth + 'px';
};
});
You can use something similar with <textarea> elements
document.querySelectorAll('textarea').forEach(function(node) {
var minHeight = parseInt(getComputedStyle(node).minHeight) || node.clientHeight;
node.style.overflowY = 'auto'; // 'hidden'
node.onchange = node.oninput = function() {
node.style.height = minHeight + 'px';
node.style.height = node.scrollHeight + 'px';
};
});
This doesn't flicker on Chrome, results may vary on other browsers, so test.
Run a mySQL query as a cron job?
I personally find it easier use MySQL event scheduler than cron.
Enable it with
SET GLOBAL event_scheduler = ON;
and create an event like this:
CREATE EVENT name_of_event
ON SCHEDULE EVERY 1 DAY
STARTS '2014-01-18 00:00:00'
DO
DELETE FROM tbl_message WHERE DATEDIFF( NOW( ) , timestamp ) >=7;
and that's it.
Read more about the syntax here and here is more general information about it.

http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/nircmd2.html#using (Scroll down to the "shortcut" section.)
Yes, using nircmd does mean you are using another 3rd-party .exe, but it can do some functions not in (most of) the above solutions (e.g., pick a icon # in a dll with multiple icons, assign a hot-key, and set the shortcut target to be minimized or maximized).
Though it appears that the shortcutjs.bat solution above can do most of that, too, but you'll need to dig more to find how to properly assign those settings. Nircmd is probably simpler.
PHP move_uploaded_file() error?
I ran into a very obscure and annoying cause of error 6.
After goofing around with some NFS mounted volumes, uploads started failing.
Problem resolved by restarting services
systemctl restart php-fpm.service
systemctl restart httpd.service
NGINX - No input file specified. - php Fast/CGI
This is likely because with the trailing slash, NGinx tries to find the default index file which is probably index.html without configuration. Without the trailing slash it tries to match the file testservice which he can't find. Either this and/or you don't have any default index file in the testservice
folder.
Try adding this line to your server
configuration :
index index.php index.html index.htm; // Or in the correct priority order for you
Hope this helps!
Edit
My answer is not very clear, see this example to understand what I mean
listen 80;

What is the purpose of using WHERE 1=1 in SQL statements?
People use it because they're inherently lazy when building dynamic SQL queries. If you start with a "where 1 = 1"
then all your extra clauses just start with "and"
and you don't have to figure out.
Not that there's anything wrong with being inherently lazy. I've seen doubly-linked lists where an "empty" list consists of two sentinel nodes and you start processing at the first->next
up until last->prev
inclusive.
This actually removed all the special handling code for deleting first
and last
nodes. In this set-up, every node was a middle node since you weren't able to delete first
or last
. Two nodes were wasted but the code was simpler and (ever so slightly) faster.
The only other place I've ever seen the "1 = 1" construct is in BIRT. Reports often use positional parameters and are modified with Javascript to allow all values. So the query:
select * from tbl where col = ?
when the user selects "*"
for the parameter being used for col
is modified to read:
select * from tbl where ((col = ?) or (1 = 1))
This allows the new query to be used without fiddling around with the positional parameter details. There's still exactly one such parameter. Any decent DBMS (e.g., DB2/z) will optimize that query to basically remove the clause entirely before trying to construct an execution plan, so there's no trade-off.
How do I add the contents of an iterable to a set?
for item in items:
extant_set.add(item)
For the record, I think the assertion that "There should be one-- and preferably only one --obvious way to do it." is bogus. It makes an assumption that many technical minded people make, that everyone thinks alike. What is obvious to one person is not so obvious to another.
I would argue that my proposed solution is clearly readable, and does what you ask. I don't believe there are any performance hits involved with it--though I admit I might be missing something. But despite all of that, it might not be obvious and preferable to another developer.

How to deal with SettingWithCopyWarning in Pandas
For me this issue occured in a following >simplified< example. And I was also able to solve it (hopefully with a correct solution):
old code with warning:
def update_old_dataframe(old_dataframe, new_dataframe):
for new_index, new_row in new_dataframe.iterrorws():
old_dataframe.loc[new_index] = update_row(old_dataframe.loc[new_index], new_row)
def update_row(old_row, new_row):
for field in [list_of_columns]:
# line with warning because of chain indexing old_dataframe[new_index][field]
old_row[field] = new_row[field]
return old_row
This printed the warning for the line old_row[field] = new_row[field]
Since the rows in update_row method are actually type Series
, I replaced the line with:
old_row.at[field] = new_row.at[field]
i.e. method for accessing/lookups for a Series
. Eventhough both works just fine and the result is same, this way I don't have to disable the warnings (=keep them for other chain indexing issues somewhere else).
I hope this may help someone.
Capitalize the first letter of string in AngularJs
Just to add my own take on this issue, I would use a custom directive myself;
app.directive('capitalization', function () {
return {
require: 'ngModel',
link: function (scope, element, attrs, modelCtrl) {
modelCtrl.$parsers.push(function (inputValue) {
var transformedInput = (!!inputValue) ? inputValue.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + inputValue.substr(1).toLowerCase() : '';
if (transformedInput != inputValue) {
modelCtrl.$setViewValue(transformedInput);
modelCtrl.$render();
}
return transformedInput;
});
}
};
Once declared you can place inside your Html as below;
<input ng-model="surname" ng-trim="false" capitalization>

Async await in linq select
Existing code is working, but is blocking the thread.
.Select(async ev => await ProcessEventAsync(ev))
creates a new Task for every event, but
.Select(t => t.Result)
blocks the thread waiting for each new task to end.
In the other hand your code produce the same result but keeps asynchronous.
Just one comment on your first code. This line
var tasks = await Task.WhenAll(events...
will produce a single Task<TResult[]> so the variable should be named in singular.
Finally your last code make the same but is more succinct.
For reference: Task.Wait / Task.WhenAll
How to find index of an object by key and value in an javascript array
The Functional Approach
All the cool kids are doing functional programming (hello React users) these days so I thought I would give the functional solution. In my view it's actually a lot nicer than the imperatival for
and each
loops that have been proposed thus far and with ES6 syntax it is quite elegant.
Update
There's now a great way of doing this called findIndex
which takes a function that return true
/false
based on whether the array element matches (as always, check for browser compatibility though).
var index = peoples.findIndex(function(person) {
return person.attr1 == "john"
}
With ES6 syntax you get to write this:
var index = peoples.findIndex(p => p.attr1 == "john")
The (Old) Functional Approach
TL;DR
If you're looking for index
where peoples[index].attr1 == "john"
use:
var index = peoples.map(function(o) { return o.attr1; }).indexOf("john");
Explanation
Step 1
Use .map()
to get an array of values given a particular key:
var values = object_array.map(function(o) { return o.your_key; });
The line above takes you from here:
var peoples = [
{ "attr1": "bob", "attr2": "pizza" },
{ "attr1": "john", "attr2": "sushi" },
{ "attr1": "larry", "attr2": "hummus" }
];
To here:
var values = [ "bob", "john", "larry" ];
Step 2
Now we just use .indexOf()
to find the index of the key we want (which is, of course, also the index of the object we're looking for):
var index = values.indexOf(your_value);
Solution
We combine all of the above:
var index = peoples.map(function(o) { return o.attr1; }).indexOf("john");
Or, if you prefer ES6 syntax:
var index = peoples.map((o) => o.attr1).indexOf("john");
Demo:

var peoples = [_x000D_
{ "attr1": "bob", "attr2": "pizza" },_x000D_

Set Font Color, Font Face and Font Size in PHPExcel
I recommend you start reading the documentation (4.6.18. Formatting cells). When applying a lot of formatting it's better to use applyFromArray()
According to the documentation this method is also suppose to be faster when you're setting many style properties. There's an annex where you can find all the possible keys for this function.
This will work for you:
$phpExcel = new PHPExcel();
$styleArray = array(
'font' => array(
'bold' => true,
'color' => array('rgb' => 'FF0000'),
'size' => 15,
'name' => 'Verdana'
));
$phpExcel->getActiveSheet()->getCell('A1')->setValue('Some text');
$phpExcel->getActiveSheet()->getStyle('A1')->applyFromArray($styleArray);
To apply font style to complete excel document:
$styleArray = array(
'font' => array(
'bold' => true,
'color' => array('rgb' => 'FF0000'),
'size' => 15,
'name' => 'Verdana'
));
$phpExcel->getDefaultStyle()
->applyFromArray($styleArray);
Creating a Pandas DataFrame from a Numpy array: How do I specify the index column and column headers?
I agree with Joris; it seems like you should be doing this differently, like with numpy record arrays. Modifying "option 2" from this great answer, you could do it like this:
import pandas
import numpy
dtype = [('Col1','int32'), ('Col2','float32'), ('Col3','float32')]
values = numpy.zeros(20, dtype=dtype)
index = ['Row'+str(i) for i in range(1, len(values)+1)]
df = pandas.DataFrame(values, index=index)
How to import csv file in PHP?

$arrResult = array();

while (($data = fgetcsv($handle, 1000, ",")) !== FALSE) {
$num = count($data);
DB::table('banks')->insert(
array('bank_name' => $data[1], 'ifsc' => $data[2], 'micr' => $data[3], 'branch_name' => $data[4],'address' => $data[5], 'contact' => $data[6], 'city' => $data[7],'district' => $data[8],'state' => $data[9])
);
}
fclose($handle);
}
Automatic creation date for Django model form objects?
Well, the above answer is correct, auto_now_add and auto_now would do it, but it would be better to make an abstract class and use it in any model where you require created_at
and updated_at
fields.
class TimeStampMixin(models.Model):
created_at = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True)
updated_at = models.DateTimeField(auto_now=True)
class Meta:
abstract = True
Now anywhere you want to use it you can do a simple inherit and you can use timestamp in any model you make like.
class Posts(TimeStampMixin):
name = models.CharField(max_length=50)
...
...
In this way, you can leverage object-oriented reusability, in Django DRY(don't repeat yourself)
Conda uninstall one package and one package only
You can use conda remove --force

How do I get the difference between two Dates in JavaScript?
Depending on your needs, this function will calculate the difference between the 2 days, and return a result in days decimal.
// This one returns a signed decimal. The sign indicates past or future.
this.getDateDiff = function(date1, date2) {
return (date1.getTime() - date2.getTime()) / (1000 * 60 * 60 * 24);
}
// This one always returns a positive decimal. (Suggested by Koen below)
this.getDateDiff = function(date1, date2) {
return Math.abs((date1.getTime() - date2.getTime()) / (1000 * 60 * 60 * 24));
}
What is the difference between Bootstrap .container and .container-fluid classes?
I think you are saying that a container
vs container-fluid
is the difference between responsive and non-responsive to the grid. This is not true...what is saying is that the width is not fixed...its full width!
This is hard to explain so lets look at the examples
Example one
container-fluid
:
http://www.bootply.com/119981
So you see how the container takes up the whole screen...that's a container-fluid
.
Now lets look at the other just a normal container
and watch the edges of the preview
Example two
container
http://www.bootply.com/119982
Now do you see the white space in the example? That's because its a fixed width container
! It might make more sense to open both examples up in two different tabs and switch back and forth.
EDIT
Better yet here is an example with both containers at once! Now you can really tell the difference!
http://www.bootply.com/119983
I hope this helped clarify a little bit!

How to change the button text for 'Yes' and 'No' buttons in the MessageBox.Show dialog?
Just add a new form and add buttons and a label. Give the value to be shown and the text of the button, etc. in its constructor, and call it from anywhere you want in the project.
In project -> Add Component -> Windows Form and select a form
Add some label and buttons.
Initialize the value in constructor and call it from anywhere.
public class form1:System.Windows.Forms.Form
{
public form1()
{
}
public form1(string message,string buttonText1,string buttonText2)
{
lblMessage.Text = message;
button1.Text = buttonText1;
button2.Text = buttonText2;
}
}
// Write code for button1 and button2 's click event in order to call
// from any where in your current project.
// Calling
Form1 frm = new Form1("message to show", "buttontext1", "buttontext2");
frm.ShowDialog();

Check if date is a valid one
Was able to find the solution.
Since the date I am getting is in ISO format, only providing date to moment will validate it, no need to pass the dateFormat.
var date = moment("2016-10-19");
And then date.isValid()
gives desired result.
What is the difference between print and puts?
The API docs give some good hints:
print() ? nil
print(obj, ...) ? nil
Writes the given object(s) to ios. Returns nil
.
The stream must be opened for writing. Each given object that isn't a
string will be converted by calling its to_s
method. When
called without arguments, prints the contents of $_
.
If the output field separator ($,
) is not nil
, it
is inserted between objects. If the output record separator
($\
) is not nil
, it is appended to the output.
...
puts(obj, ...) ? nil
Writes the given object(s) to ios. Writes a newline after any that
do not already end with a newline sequence. Returns nil
.
The stream must be opened for writing. If called with an array argument,
writes each element on a new line. Each given object that isn't a
string or array will be converted by calling its to_s
method.
If called without arguments, outputs a single newline.
Experimenting a little with the points given above, the differences seem to be:
Called with multiple arguments, print
separates them by the 'output field separator' $,
(which defaults to nothing) while puts
separates them by newlines. puts
also puts a newline after the final argument, while print
does not.

print
with no arguments prints $_
(the last thing read by gets
), while puts
prints a newline:

hello world
=> "hello world\n"
2.1.3 :002 > puts
=> nil
2.1.3 :003 > print
hello world
=> nil
print
writes the output record separator $\
after whatever it prints, while puts
ignores this variable:
mark@lunchbox:~$ irb
2.1.3 :001 > $\ = 'MOOOOOOO!'
=> "MOOOOOOO!"
2.1.3 :002 > puts "Oink! Baa! Cluck! "

"unable to locate adb" using Android Studio
- on your android studio at the top right corner beside the search icon you can find the SDK Manager.
- view android SDK location (this will show you your sdk path)
- navigate to file explorer on your system, and locate the file path, this should be found something like
Windows=> c://Users/johndoe/AppData/local/android (you can now see the sdk.)
Mac=>/Users/johndoe/Library/Android/sdk
- check the platform tools folder and see if you would see anything like adb.exe (it should be missing probably because it was corrupted and your antivirus or windows defender has quarantined it)
- delete the platform tools folder
- go back to android studio and from where you left off navigate to sdk tools (this should be right under android sdk location)
- uncheck android sdk platform-tools and select ok. (this will uninstall the platform tools from your ide) wait till it is done and then your gradle will sync.
- after sync is complete, go back and check the box of android sdk platform-tools (this will install a fresh one with new adb.exe) wait till it is done and sync project and then you are good to go.
I hope this saves someone some hours of pain.
Pandas aggregate count distinct
Just adding to the answers already given, the solution using the string "nunique"
seems much faster, tested here on ~21M rows dataframe, then grouped to ~2M
%time _=g.agg({"id": lambda x: x.nunique()})
CPU times: user 3min 3s, sys: 2.94 s, total: 3min 6s
Wall time: 3min 20s
%time _=g.agg({"id": pd.Series.nunique})
CPU times: user 3min 2s, sys: 2.44 s, total: 3min 4s
Wall time: 3min 18s
%time _=g.agg({"id": "nunique"})
CPU times: user 14 s, sys: 4.76 s, total: 18.8 s
Wall time: 24.4 s

How do I install the babel-polyfill library?
If your package.json looks something like the following:
...
"devDependencies": {
"babel": "^6.5.2",
"babel-eslint": "^6.0.4",
"babel-polyfill": "^6.8.0",
"babel-preset-es2015": "^6.6.0",
"babelify": "^7.3.0",
...
And you get the Cannot find module 'babel/polyfill'
error message, then you probably just need to change your import statement FROM:
import "babel/polyfill";
TO:
import "babel-polyfill";
And make sure it comes before any other import
statement (not necessarily at the entry point of your application).

CSS 3 slide-in from left transition
Use CSS3 2D transform
to avoid performance issues (mobile)
A common pitfall is to animate left
/top
/right
/bottom
properties instead of using css-transform to achieve the same effect. For a variety of reasons, the semantics of transforms make them easier to offload, but left
/top
/right
/bottom
are much more difficult.

jQuery .live() vs .on() method for adding a click event after loading dynamic html
If you want the click handler to work for an element that gets loaded dynamically, then you set the event handler on a parent object (that does not get loaded dynamically) and give it a selector that matches your dynamic object like this:
$('#parent').on("click", "#child", function() {});
The event handler will be attached to the #parent
object and anytime a click event bubbles up to it that originated on #child
, it will fire your click handler. This is called delegated event handling (the event handling is delegated to a parent object).
It's done this way because you can attach the event to the #parent
object even when the #child
object does not exist yet, but when it later exists and gets clicked on, the click event will bubble up to the #parent
object, it will see that it originated on #child
and there is an event handler for a click on #child
and fire your event.
Write objects into file with Node.js
In my experience JSON.stringify is slightly faster than util.inspect.
I had to save the result object of a DB2 query as a json file, The query returned an object of 92k rows, the conversion took very long to complete with util.inspect, so I did the following test by writing the same 1000 record object to a file with both methods.
JSON.Stringify
fs.writeFile('./data.json', JSON.stringify(obj, null, 2));
Time: 3:57 (3 min 57 sec)
Result's format:
[
{
"PROB": "00001",
"BO": "AXZ",
"CNTRY": "649"
},
...
]
util.inspect
var util = require('util');
fs.writeFile('./data.json', util.inspect(obj, false, 2, false));
Time: 4:12 (4 min 12 sec)
Result's format:
[ { PROB: '00001',
BO: 'AXZ',
CNTRY: '649' },
...
]
java.lang.RuntimeException: Can't create handler inside thread that has not called Looper.prepare();
Here's what I've been doing:
public void displayError(final String errorText) {
Runnable doDisplayError = new Runnable() {
public void run() {
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), errorText, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
};
messageHandler.post(doDisplayError);
}
That should allow the method to be called from either thread.
Where messageHandler is declared in the activity as ..
Handler messageHandler = new Handler();
How to put multiple statements in one line?
You could use the built-in exec statement, eg.:
exec("try: \n \t if sam[0] != 'harry': \n \t\t print('hello', sam) \nexcept: pass")
Where \n
is a newline and \t
is used as indentation (a tab).
Also, you should count the spaces you use, so your indentation matches exactly.
However, as all the other answers already said, this is of course only to be used when you really have to put it on one line.
exec
is quite a dangerous statement (especially when building a webapp) since it allows execution of arbitrary Python code.
Evaluate a string with a switch in C++
You can only use switch-case on types castable to an int.
You could, however, define a std::map<std::string, std::function> dispatcher
and use it like dispatcher[str]()
to achieve same effect.
What does LINQ return when the results are empty
You can also check the .Any()
method:
if (!YourResult.Any())
Just a note that .Any
will still retrieve the records from the database; doing a .FirstOrDefault()/.Where()
will be just as much overhead but you would then be able to catch the object(s) returned from the query
How does a hash table work?
All of the answers so far are good, and get at different aspects of how a hashtable works. Here is a simple example that might be helpful. Lets say we want to store some items with lower case alphabetic strings as a keys.
As simon explained, the hash function is used to map from a large space to a small space. A simple, naive implementation of a hash function for our example could take the first letter of the string, and map it to an integer, so "alligator" has a hash code of 0, "bee" has a hash code of 1, "zebra" would be 25, etc.
Next we have an array of 26 buckets (could be ArrayLists in Java), and we put the item in the bucket that matches the hash code of our key. If we have more than one item that has a key that begins with the same letter, they will have the same hash code, so would all go in the bucket for that hash code so a linear search would have to be made in the bucket to find a particular item.
In our example, if we just had a few dozen items with keys spanning the alphabet, it would work very well. However, if we had a million items or all the keys all started with 'a' or 'b', then our hash table would not be ideal. To get better performance, we would need a different hash function and/or more buckets.

Open File in Another Directory (Python)
If you know the full path to the file you can just do something similar to this. However if you question directly relates to relative paths, that I am unfamiliar with and would have to research and test.
path = 'C:\\Users\\Username\\Path\\To\\File'
with open(path, 'w') as f:
f.write(data)
Edit:
Here is a way to do it relatively instead of absolute. Not sure if this works on windows, you will have to test it.
import os
cur_path = os.path.dirname(__file__)
new_path = os.path.relpath('..\\subfldr1\\testfile.txt', cur_path)
with open(new_path, 'w') as f:
f.write(data)
Edit 2: One quick note about __file__
, this will not work in the interactive interpreter due it being ran interactively and not from an actual file.
Create SQL identity as primary key?

)
ALTER TABLE [dbo].[ImagenesUsuario] ADD
CONSTRAINT [PK_ImagenesUsuario] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED

How to move from one fragment to another fragment on click of an ImageView in Android?
When you are inside an activity and need to go to a fragment use below
getFragmentManager().beginTransaction().replace(R.id.*TO_BE_REPLACED_LAYOUT_ID*, new tasks()).commit();
But when you are inside a fragment and need to go to a fragment then just add a getActivity().
before, so it would become
getActivity().getFragmentManager().beginTransaction().replace(R.id.*TO_BE_REPLACED_LAYOUT_ID*, new tasks()).commit();
as simple as that.
The *TO_BE_REPLACED_LAYOUT_ID*
can be the entire page of activity or a part of it, just make sure to put an id to the layout to be replaced. It is general practice to put the replaceable layout in a FrameLayout
.
Should I use @EJB or @Inject
The @EJB
is used to inject EJB's only and is available for quite some time now. @Inject
can inject any managed bean and is a part of the new CDI specification (since Java EE 6).
In simple cases you can simply change @EJB
to @Inject
. In more advanced cases (e.g. when you heavily depend on @EJB
's attributes like beanName
, lookup
or beanInterface
) than in order to use @Inject
you would need to define a @Producer
field or method.
These resources might be helpful to understand the differences between @EJB
and @Produces
and how to get the best of them:
Antonio Goncalves' blog:
CDI Part I
CDI Part II

Random state (Pseudo-random number) in Scikit learn
train_test_split
splits arrays or matrices into random train and test subsets. That means that everytime you run it without specifying random_state
, you will get a different result, this is expected behavior. For example:
Run 1:
>>> a, b = np.arange(10).reshape((5, 2)), range(5)
>>> train_test_split(a, b)
[array([[6, 7],
[8, 9],
[4, 5]]),
array([[2, 3],
[0, 1]]), [3, 4, 2], [1, 0]]
Run 2
>>> train_test_split(a, b)
[array([[8, 9],
[4, 5],
[0, 1]]),
array([[6, 7],
[2, 3]]), [4, 2, 0], [3, 1]]
It changes. On the other hand if you use random_state=some_number
, then you can guarantee that the output of Run 1 will be equal to the output of Run 2, i.e. your split will be always the same.
It doesn't matter what the actual random_state
number is 42, 0, 21, ... The important thing is that everytime you use 42, you will always get the same output the first time you make the split.
This is useful if you want reproducible results, for example in the documentation, so that everybody can consistently see the same numbers when they run the examples.
In practice I would say, you should set the random_state
to some fixed number while you test stuff, but then remove it in production if you really need a random (and not a fixed) split.
Regarding your second question, a pseudo-random number generator is a number generator that generates almost truly random numbers. Why they are not truly random is out of the scope of this question and probably won't matter in your case, you can take a look here form more details.
Git error when trying to push -- pre-receive hook declined
In my case, we have hooks for commit messages, our server script accepts commits if they have the special format for commit message"<JIRA ID><Message>"

How do I make a dictionary with multiple keys to one value?
Your example creates multiple key: value pairs if using fromkeys
. If you don't want this, you can use one key and create an alias for the key. For example if you are using a register map, your key can be the register address and the alias can be register name. That way you can perform read/write operations on the correct register.
>>> mydict = {}
>>> mydict[(1,2)] = [30, 20]
>>> alias1 = (1,2)
>>> print mydict[alias1]
[30, 20]
>>> mydict[(1,3)] = [30, 30]
>>> print mydict
{(1, 2): [30, 20], (1, 3): [30, 30]}
>>> alias1 in mydict
True
What's the difference between getPath(), getAbsolutePath(), and getCanonicalPath() in Java?
The big thing to get your head around is that the File
class tries to represent a view of what Sun like to call "hierarchical pathnames" (basically a path like c:/foo.txt
or /usr/muggins
). This is why you create files in terms of paths. The operations you are describing are all operations upon this "pathname".
getPath()
fetches the path that the File was created with (../foo.txt
)
getAbsolutePath()
fetches the path that the File was created with, but includes information about the current directory if the path is relative (/usr/bobstuff/../foo.txt
)
getCanonicalPath()
attempts to fetch a unique representation of the absolute path to the file. This eliminates indirection from ".." and "." references (/usr/foo.txt
).
Note I say attempts - in forming a Canonical Path, the VM can throw an IOException
. This usually occurs because it is performing some filesystem operations, any one of which could fail.
Difference between parameter and argument
They are often used interchangeably in text, but in most standards the distinction is that an argument is an expression passed to a function, where a parameter is a reference declared in a function declaration.
Is it possible to disable the network in iOS Simulator?
Just updating the answer to the current date. Since Xcode 4 (?) there is a preferences pane in /Applications/Utilities

. Either you use one of the existent profiles or you create your own custom profile with 0 Kbps Up/Downlink and 100% dropped.
How to develop Desktop Apps using HTML/CSS/JavaScript?
CEF offers lot of flexibility and options for customisation. But if the intent is to develop quickly node-webkit is also a good option. Node-web kit also offers ability to call node modules directly from DOM.
If there aren't any native modules to integrate Node-Webkit can offer better mileage. With native modules C/C++ or even C# it is better with CEF.
C# using Sendkey function to send a key to another application
If notepad is already started, you should write:
// import the function in your class
[DllImport ("User32.dll")]
static extern int SetForegroundWindow(IntPtr point);
//...
Process p = Process.GetProcessesByName("notepad").FirstOrDefault();
if (p != null)
{
IntPtr h = p.MainWindowHandle;
SetForegroundWindow(h);
SendKeys.SendWait("k");
}
GetProcessesByName
returns an array of processes, so you should get the first one (or find the one you want).
If you want to start notepad
and send the key, you should write:
Process p = Process.Start("notepad.exe");
p.WaitForInputIdle();
IntPtr h = p.MainWindowHandle;
SetForegroundWindow(h);
SendKeys.SendWait("k");
The only situation in which the code may not work is when notepad
is started as Administrator and your application is not.

How can I define an interface for an array of objects with Typescript?
You don't need to use an indexer (since it a bit less typesafe). You have two options :
interface EnumServiceItem {
id: number; label: string; key: any
}
interface EnumServiceItems extends Array<EnumServiceItem>{}
// Option A
var result: EnumServiceItem[] = [
{ id: 0, label: 'CId', key: 'contentId' },
{ id: 1, label: 'Modified By', key: 'modifiedBy' },
{ id: 2, label: 'Modified Date', key: 'modified' },
{ id: 3, label: 'Status', key: 'contentStatusId' },
{ id: 4, label: 'Status > Type', key: ['contentStatusId', 'contentTypeId'] },
{ id: 5, label: 'Title', key: 'title' },
{ id: 6, label: 'Type', key: 'contentTypeId' },
{ id: 7, label: 'Type > Status', key: ['contentTypeId', 'contentStatusId'] }
];
// Option B
var result: EnumServiceItems = [
{ id: 0, label: 'CId', key: 'contentId' },
{ id: 1, label: 'Modified By', key: 'modifiedBy' },
{ id: 2, label: 'Modified Date', key: 'modified' },
{ id: 3, label: 'Status', key: 'contentStatusId' },
{ id: 4, label: 'Status > Type', key: ['contentStatusId', 'contentTypeId'] },
{ id: 5, label: 'Title', key: 'title' },
{ id: 6, label: 'Type', key: 'contentTypeId' },
{ id: 7, label: 'Type > Status', key: ['contentTypeId', 'contentStatusId'] }
]
Personally I recommend Option A (simpler migration when you are using classes not interfaces).
where is gacutil.exe?
You can use the version in Windows SDK but sometimes it might not be the same version of the .NET Framework your using, getting you the following error:

Remove Safari/Chrome textinput/textarea glow

Why catch and rethrow an exception in C#?
This can be useful when your programming functions for a library or dll.
This rethrow structure can be used to purposefully reset the call stack so that instead of seeing the exception thrown from an individual function inside the function, you get the exception from the function itself.
I think this is just used so that the thrown exceptions are cleaner and don't go into the "roots" of the library.

Android LinearLayout Gradient Background
You can used a custom view to do that. With this solution, it's finished the gradient shapes of all colors in your projects:
class GradientView(context: Context, attrs: AttributeSet) : View(context, attrs) {
// Properties
private val paint: Paint = Paint()
private val rect = Rect()
//region Attributes
var start: Int = Color.WHITE
var end: Int = Color.WHITE
//endregion
override fun onSizeChanged(w: Int, h: Int, oldw: Int, oldh: Int) {
super.onSizeChanged(w, h, oldw, oldh)
// Update Size
val usableWidth = width - (paddingLeft + paddingRight)
val usableHeight = height - (paddingTop + paddingBottom)
rect.right = usableWidth
rect.bottom = usableHeight
// Update Color
paint.shader = LinearGradient(0f, 0f, width.toFloat(), 0f,
start, end, Shader.TileMode.CLAMP)
// ReDraw
invalidate()
}
override fun onDraw(canvas: Canvas) {
super.onDraw(canvas)
canvas.drawRect(rect, paint)
}
}
I also create an open source project GradientView with this custom view:
https://github.com/lopspower/GradientView
implementation 'com.mikhaellopez:gradientview:1.1.0'
How does Zalgo text work?
The text uses combining characters, also known as combining marks. See section 2.11 of Combining Characters in the Unicode Standard (PDF).
In Unicode, character rendering does not use a simple character cell model where each glyph fits into a box with given height. Combining marks may be rendered above, below, or inside a base character
So you can easily construct a character sequence, consisting of a base character and “combining above” marks, of any length, to reach any desired visual height, assuming that the rendering software conforms to the Unicode rendering model. Such a sequence has no meaning of course, and even a monkey could produce it (e.g., given a keyboard with suitable driver).
And you can mix “combining above” and “combining below” marks.
The sample text in the question starts with:
When should we use mutex and when should we use semaphore
Binary semaphore and Mutex are different. From OS perspective, a binary semaphore and counting semaphore are implemented in the same way and a binary semaphore can have a value 0 or 1.
Mutex -> Can only be used for one and only purpose of mutual exclusion for a critical section of code.
Semaphore -> Can be used to solve variety of problems. A binary semaphore can be used for signalling and also solve mutual exclusion problem. When initialized to 0, it solves signalling problem and when initialized to 1, it solves mutual exclusion problem.
When the number of resources are more and needs to be synchronized, we can use counting semaphore.
In my blog, I have discussed these topics in detail.

Change string color with NSAttributedString?
There is no need for using NSAttributedString
. All you need is a simple label with the proper textColor
. Plus this simple solution will work with all versions of iOS, not just iOS 6.
But if you needlessly wish to use NSAttributedString
, you can do something like this:
UIColor *color = [UIColor redColor]; // select needed color
NSString *string = ... // the string to colorize
NSDictionary *attrs = @{ NSForegroundColorAttributeName : color };
NSAttributedString *attrStr = [[NSAttributedString alloc] initWithString:string attributes:attrs];
self.scanLabel.attributedText = attrStr;
How to center content in a bootstrap column?
[Updated Dec 2020]: Tested and Included 5.0
version of Bootstrap.
I know this question is old. And the question did not mentioned which version of Bootstrap he was using. So i'll assume the answer to this question is resolved.
If any of you (like me) stumbled upon this question and looking for answer using current bootstrap 5.0 (2020) and 4.5 (2019) framework, then here's the solution.
Bootstrap 4.5 and 5.0
Use d-flex justify-content-center
on your column div. This will center everything inside that column.
<div class="row">
<div class="col-4 d-flex justify-content-center">
// Image
</div>
</div>
If you want to align the text inside the col just use text-center
<div class="row">
<div class="col-4 text-center">
// text only
</div>
</div>
If you have text and image inside the column, you need to use d-flex
justify-content-center
and text-center
.
<div class="row">
<div class="col-4 d-flex justify-content-center text-center">
// for image and text
</div>
</div>
.NET: Simplest way to send POST with data and read response
Given other answers are a few years old, currently here are my thoughts that may be helpful:
Simplest way
private async Task<string> PostAsync(Uri uri, HttpContent dataOut)
{
var client = new HttpClient();
var response = await client.PostAsync(uri, dataOut);
return await response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync();
// For non strings you can use other Content.ReadAs...() method variations
}
A More Practical Example
Often we are dealing with known types and JSON, so you can further extend this idea with any number of implementations, such as:
public async Task<T> PostJsonAsync<T>(Uri uri, object dtoOut)
{
var content = new StringContent(JsonConvert.SerializeObject(dtoOut));
content.Headers.ContentType = MediaTypeHeaderValue.Parse("application/json");
var results = await PostAsync(uri, content); // from previous block of code
return JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<T>(results); // using Newtonsoft.Json
}
An example of how this could be called:

How do you calculate the variance, median, and standard deviation in C++ or Java?
public class Statistics {
double[] data;
int size;
public Statistics(double[] data) {
this.data = data;
size = data.length;
}
double getMean() {
double sum = 0.0;
for(double a : data)
sum += a;
return sum/size;
}
double getVariance() {
double mean = getMean();
double temp = 0;
for(double a :data)
temp += (a-mean)*(a-mean);
return temp/(size-1);
}
double getStdDev() {
return Math.sqrt(getVariance());
}
public double median() {
Arrays.sort(data);
if (data.length % 2 == 0)
return (data[(data.length / 2) - 1] + data[data.length / 2]) / 2.0;
return data[data.length / 2];
}
}
mysqli_fetch_assoc() expects parameter 1 to be mysqli_result, boolean given
mysqli_fetch_assoc() expects parameter 1 to be mysqli_result, boolean given
This means that the first parameter you passed is a boolean (true or false).
The first parameter is $result
, and it is false
because there is a syntax error in the query.
" ... WHERE PartNumber = $partid';"
You should never directly include a request variable in a SQL query, else the users are able to inject SQL in your queries. (See SQL injection.)
You should escape the variable:
" ... WHERE PartNumber = '" . mysqli_escape_string($conn,$partid) . "';"
Or better, use Prepared Statements
.
Query an XDocument for elements by name at any depth
Descendants should work absolutely fine. Here's an example:
using System;
using System.Xml.Linq;
class Test
{
static void Main()
{
string xml = @"
<root>
<child id='1'/>
<child id='2'>
<grandchild id='3' />
<grandchild id='4' />
</child>
</root>";
XDocument doc = XDocument.Parse(xml);
foreach (XElement element in doc.Descendants("grandchild"))
{
Console.WriteLine(element);
}
}
}
Results:
<grandchild id="3" />
<grandchild id="4" />
How to clear cache of Eclipse Indigo
You can always create a new Eclipse workspace. The Eclipse.exe -clean
option is not sufficient in some cases, for example, if the local history becomes a problem.
Edit:
Eclipse is mostly a collection of third party plugins. And each of those plugins can add some extra useful, useless or problematic information to the central Eclipse workspace meta-data folder.
The problem is that not every plugin participates during the user-issued cleanup routine. Therefore, I'd say that it is a problem in the system design of Eclipse, that it allows plugins to misbehave like this.
And therefore, I'd recommend to make yourself comfortable with the idea of using multiple workspaces and linking-in external project entities into each workspace. Because, this is the only workaround for the given system design, to handle faulty plugins that spam your workspace.
Nested or Inner Class in PHP
Since PHP version 5.4 you can force create objects with private constructor through reflection. It can be used to simulate Java nested classes. Example code:
class OuterClass {
private $name;
public function __construct($name) {
$this->name = $name;
}
public function getName() {
return $this->name;
}
public function forkInnerObject($name) {
$class = new ReflectionClass('InnerClass');
$constructor = $class->getConstructor();
$constructor->setAccessible(true);
$innerObject = $class->newInstanceWithoutConstructor(); // This method appeared in PHP 5.4
$constructor->invoke($innerObject, $this, $name);
return $innerObject;
}
}
class InnerClass {
private $parentObject;
private $name;
private function __construct(OuterClass $parentObject, $name) {
$this->parentObject = $parentObject;
$this->name = $name;
}
public function getName() {
return $this->name;
}
public function getParent() {
return $this->parentObject;
}
}
$outerObject = new OuterClass('This is an outer object');
//$innerObject = new InnerClass($outerObject, 'You cannot do it');
$innerObject = $outerObject->forkInnerObject('This is an inner object');
echo $innerObject->getName() . "\n";
echo $innerObject->getParent()->getName() . "\n";
No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' - Node / Apache Port Issue
Try adding the following middleware to your NodeJS/Express app (I have added some comments for your convenience):
// Add headers
app.use(function (req, res, next) {
// Website you wish to allow to connect
res.setHeader('Access-Control-Allow-Origin', 'http://localhost:8888');
// Request methods you wish to allow
res.setHeader('Access-Control-Allow-Methods', 'GET, POST, OPTIONS, PUT, PATCH, DELETE');
// Request headers you wish to allow
res.setHeader('Access-Control-Allow-Headers', 'X-Requested-With,content-type');
// Set to true if you need the website to include cookies in the requests sent
// to the API (e.g. in case you use sessions)
res.setHeader('Access-Control-Allow-Credentials', true);
// Pass to next layer of middleware
next();
});
Hope that helps!
Always pass weak reference of self into block in ARC?
I totally agree with @jemmons:
But this should not be the default pattern you follow when dealing with blocks that call self! This should only be used to break what would otherwise be a retain cycle between self and the block. If you were to adopt this pattern everywhere, you'd run the risk of passing a block to something that got executed after self was deallocated.
//SUSPICIOUS EXAMPLE:
__weak MyObject *weakSelf = self;
[[SomeOtherObject alloc] initWithCompletion:^{
//By the time this gets called, "weakSelf" might be nil because it's not retained!
[weakSelf doSomething];
}];
To overcome this problem one can define a strong reference over the weakSelf
inside the block:
__weak MyObject *weakSelf = self;
[[SomeOtherObject alloc] initWithCompletion:^{
MyObject *strongSelf = weakSelf;
[strongSelf doSomething];
}];
fcntl substitute on Windows
The substitute of fcntl
on windows are win32api
calls. The usage is completely different. It is not some switch you can just flip.
In other words, porting a fcntl
-heavy-user module to windows is not trivial. It requires you to analyze what exactly each fcntl
call does and then find the equivalent win32api
code, if any.
There's also the possibility that some code using fcntl
has no windows equivalent, which would require you to change the module api and maybe the structure/paradigm of the program using the module you're porting.
If you provide more details about the fcntl
calls people can find windows equivalents.
How do servlets work? Instantiation, sessions, shared variables and multithreading
Sessions
In short: the web server issues a unique identifier to each visitor on his first visit. The visitor must bring back that ID for him to be recognised next time around. This identifier also allows the server to properly segregate objects owned by one session against that of another.
Servlet Instantiation
If load-on-startup is false:
If load-on-startup is true:
Once he's on the service mode and on the groove, the same servlet will work on the requests from all other clients.
Why isn't it a good idea to have one instance per client? Think about this: Will you hire one pizza guy for every order that came? Do that and you'd be out of business in no time.
It comes with a small risk though. Remember: this single guy holds all the order information in his pocket: so if you're not cautious about thread safety on servlets, he may end up giving the wrong order to a certain client.
open failed: EACCES (Permission denied)
In my case it was permissions issue.
The catch is that on device with Android 4.0.4 I got access to file without any error or exception. And on device with Android 5.1 it failed with ACCESS exception (open failed: EACCES (Permission denied)).
Handled it with adding follow permission to manifest file:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"/>
So I guess that it's the difference between permissions management in OS versions that causes to failures.
Update built-in vim on Mac OS X
On Yosemite, install vim using brew
and the override-system-vi
option. This will automatically install vim with the features of the 'huge' vim install.
brew install vim --with-override-system-vi
The output of this command will show you where brew installed vim. In that folder, go down into /bin/vim
to actually run vim. This is your command to run vim from any folder:
/usr/local/Cellar/vim/7.4.873/bin/vim
Then alias this command by adding the following line in your .bashrc:
alias vim="/usr/local/Cellar/vim/7.4.873/bin/vim"
EDIT: Brew flag --override-system-vi
has been deprecated. Changed for --with-override-system-vi
. Source: https://github.com/Shougo/neocomplete.vim/issues/401
JavaFX: How to get stage from controller during initialization?
The simplest way to get stage object in controller is:
Add an extra method in own created controller class like (it will be a setter method to set the stage in controller class),
private Stage myStage;
public void setStage(Stage stage) {
myStage = stage;
}
Get controller in start method and set stage
FXMLLoader loader = new FXMLLoader(getClass().getResource("MyFXML.fxml"));
OwnController controller = loader.getController();
controller.setStage(this.stage);
Now you can access the stage in controller
Android: Access child views from a ListView
This assumes you know the position of the element in the ListView :
View element = listView.getListAdapter().getView(position, null, null);
Then you should be able to call getLeft() and getTop() to determine the elements on screen position.
How to cast/convert pointer to reference in C++
Call it like this:
foo(*ob);
Note that there is no casting going on here, as suggested in your question title. All we have done is de-referenced the pointer to the object which we then pass to the function.
How do you convert a DataTable into a generic list?
using System.Data;
var myEnumerable = myDataTable.AsEnumerable();

MyClassProperty2 = item.Field<string>("DataTableColumnName2")
}).ToList();
How to send data in request body with a GET when using jQuery $.ajax()
we all know generally that for sending the data according to the http standards we generally use POST request.
But if you really want to use Get for sending the data in your scenario
I would suggest you to use the query-string or query-parameters.
1.GET use of Query string as.
{{url}}admin/recordings/some_id
here the some_id is mendatory parameter to send and can be used and req.params.some_id at server side.
2.GET use of query string as{{url}}admin/recordings?durationExact=34&isFavourite=true
here the durationExact ,isFavourite is optional strings to send and can be used and req.query.durationExact and req.query.isFavourite at server side.
3.GET Sending arrays
{{url}}admin/recordings/sessions/?os["Windows","Linux","Macintosh"]
and you can access those array values at server side like this
let osValues = JSON.parse(req.query.os);
if(osValues.length > 0)
{
for (let i=0; i<osValues.length; i++)
{
console.log(osValues[i])
//do whatever you want to do here
}
}
Java equivalent to #region in C#
This is more of an IDE feature than a language feature. Netbeans allows you to define your own folding definitions using the following definition:
// <editor-fold defaultstate="collapsed" desc="user-description">
...any code...
// </editor-fold>
As noted in the article, this may be supported by other editors too, but there are no guarantees.
Global variables in Javascript across multiple files
You need to declare the variable before you include the helpers.js file. Simply create a script tag above the include for helpers.js and define it there.
<script type='text/javascript' >
var myFunctionTag = false;
</script>
<script type='text/javascript' src='js/helpers.js'></script>
...
<script type='text/javascript' >
// rest of your code, which may depend on helpers.js
</script>
Java resource as file
Here is a bit of code from one of my applications...
Let me know if it suits your needs.
You can use this if you know the file you want to use.
URL defaultImage = ClassA.class.getResource("/packageA/subPackage/image-name.png");
File imageFile = new File(defaultImage.toURI());
Hope that helps.
Get Cell Value from a DataTable in C#
The DataRow
has also an indexer:
Object cellValue = dt.Rows[i][j];
But i would prefer the strongly typed Field
extension method which also supports nullable types:
int number = dt.Rows[i].Field<int>(j);
or even more readable and less error-prone with the name of the column:
double otherNumber = dt.Rows[i].Field<double>("DoubleColumn");
How can I escape a double quote inside double quotes?
A simple example of escaping quotes in the shell:
$ echo 'abc'\''abc'
abc'abc
$ echo "abc"\""abc"
abc"abc
It's done by finishing an already-opened one ('
), placing the escaped one (\'
), and then opening another one ('
).
Alternatively:
$ echo 'abc'"'"'abc'
abc'abc
$ echo "abc"'"'"abc"
abc"abc
It's done by finishing already opened one ('
), placing a quote in another quote ("'"
), and then opening another one ('
).

How to merge two arrays of objects by ID using lodash?
Create dictionaries for both arrays using _.keyBy()
, merge the dictionaries, and convert the result to an array with _.values()
. In this way, the order of the arrays doesn't matter. In addition, it can also handle arrays of different length.
_x000D_
_x000D_
const ObjectId = (id) => id; // mock of ObjectId_x000D_
const arr1 = [{"member" : ObjectId("57989cbe54cf5d2ce83ff9d8"),"bank" : ObjectId("575b052ca6f66a5732749ecc"),"country" : ObjectId("575b0523a6f66a5732749ecb")},{"member" : ObjectId("57989cbe54cf5d2ce83ff9d6"),"bank" : ObjectId("575b052ca6f66a5732749ecc"),"country" : ObjectId("575b0523a6f66a5732749ecb")}];_x000D_

Using ES6 Map
Concat the arrays, and reduce the combined array to a Map. Use Object#assign to combine objects with the same member
to a new object, and store in map. Convert the map to an array with Map#values and spread:

Declaring functions in JSP?
You need to enclose that in <%! %> as follows:
<%!
public String getQuarter(int i){
String quarter;
switch(i){
case 1: quarter = "Winter";
break;
case 2: quarter = "Spring";
break;
case 3: quarter = "Summer I";
break;
case 4: quarter = "Summer II";
break;
case 5: quarter = "Fall";
break;
default: quarter = "ERROR";
}
return quarter;
}
%>
You can then invoke the function within scriptlets or expressions:
<%
out.print(getQuarter(4));
%>
or
<%= getQuarter(17) %>
How to ignore a property in class if null, using json.net
Here's an option that's similar, but provides another choice:
public class DefaultJsonSerializer : JsonSerializerSettings
{
public DefaultJsonSerializer()
{
NullValueHandling = NullValueHandling.Ignore;
}
}
Then, I use it like this:
JsonConvert.SerializeObject(postObj, new DefaultJsonSerializer());
The difference here is that:
- Reduces repeated code by instantiating and configuring
JsonSerializerSettings
each place it's used.
- Saves time in configuring every property of every object to be serialized.
- Still gives other developers flexibility in serialization options, rather than having the property explicitly specified on a reusable object.
- My use-case is that the code is a 3rd party library and I don't want to force serialization options on developers who would want to reuse my classes.
- Potential drawbacks are that it's another object that other developers would need to know about, or if your application is small and this approach wouldn't matter for a single serialization.
Do you recommend using semicolons after every statement in JavaScript?
I'd say consistency is more important than saving a few bytes. I always include semicolons.
On the other hand, I'd like to point out there are many places where the semicolon is not syntactically required, even if a compressor is nuking all available whitespace. e.g. at then end of a block.
if (a) { b() }
mysqli_real_connect(): (HY000/2002): No such file or directory
change localhost to 127.0.0.1 in /etc/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['host'] = '127.0.0.1';
The reason for this is that pma tries to connect to the mysql.socket if you use localhost. If you use 127.0.0.1 PMA makes a TCP connection which should work.
Launch Android application without main Activity and start Service on launching application
The reason to make an App with no activity or service could be making a Homescreen Widget app that doesn't need to be started.
Once you start a project don't create any activities. After you created the project just hit run. Android studio will say No default activity found
.
Click Edit Configuration (From the Run menu) and in the Launch option part set the Launch value to Nothing.
Then click ok and run the App.
(Since there is no launcher activity, No app will be show in the Apps menu.).
What does the question mark and the colon (?: ternary operator) mean in objective-c?
Ternary operator example.If the value of isFemale
boolean variable is YES, print "GENDER IS FEMALE" otherwise "GENDER IS
MALE"
? means = execute the codes before the : if the condition is true.
: means = execute the codes after the : if the condition is false.
Objective-C
BOOL isFemale = YES;
NSString *valueToPrint = (isFemale == YES) ? @"GENDER IS FEMALE" : @"GENDER IS MALE";
NSLog(valueToPrint); //Result will be "GENDER IS FEMALE" because the value of isFemale was set to YES.
For Swift
let isFemale = false
let valueToPrint:String = (isFemale == true) ? "GENDER IS FEMALE" : "GENDER IS MALE"
print(valueToPrint) //Result will be "GENDER IS MALE" because the isFemale value was set to false.

Hide div by default and show it on click with bootstrap
Here I propose a way to do this exclusively using the Bootstrap framework built-in functionality.
- You need to make sure the target
div
has an ID.
- Bootstrap has a
class
"collapse", this will hide your block by
default. If you want your div to be collapsible AND be shown by
default you need to add "in" class to the collapse. Otherwise the
toggle behavior will not work properly.
- Then, on your hyperlink (also works for buttons), add an href
attribute that points to your target div.
- Finally, add the attribute
data-toggle="collapse"
to instruct
Bootstrap to add an appropriate toggle script to this tag.
Here is a code sample than can be copy-pasted directly on a page that already includes Bootstrap framework (up to version 3.4.1):
<a href="#Foo" class="btn btn-default" data-toggle="collapse">Toggle Foo</a>
<button href="#Bar" class="btn btn-default" data-toggle="collapse">Toggle Bar</button>
<div id="Foo" class="collapse">
This div (Foo) is hidden by default
</div>
<div id="Bar" class="collapse in">
This div (Bar) is shown by default and can toggle
</div>
Converting Float to Dollars and Cents
Personally, I like this much better (which, granted, is just a different way of writing the currently selected "best answer"):
money = float(1234.5)
print('$' + format(money, ',.2f'))
Or, if you REALLY don't like "adding" multiple strings to combine them, you could do this instead:
money = float(1234.5)
print('${0}'.format(format(money, ',.2f')))
I just think both of these styles are a bit easier to read. :-)
(of course, you can still incorporate an If-Else to handle negative values as Eric suggests too)
span with onclick event inside a tag
I would use jQuery to get the results that you're looking for. You wouldn't need to use an anchor tag at that point but if you did it would look like:
<a href="page" style="text-decoration:none;display:block;">
<span onclick="hide()">Hide me</span>
</a>
<script type='text/javascript' src='http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.7.2.min.js' /
<script type='text/javascript'>
$(document).ready(function(){
$('span').click(function(){
$(this).hide();
}

Java current machine name and logged in user?
To get the currently logged in user:
System.getProperty("user.name");
To get the host name of the machine:
InetAddress.getLocalHost().getHostName();
To answer the last part of your question, the Java API says that getHostName() will return
the host name for this IP address, or if the operation is not allowed by the security check, the textual representation of the IP address.
border-radius not working
To add a bit on to @ethanmay 's answer: (https://stackoverflow.com/a/44334424/8479303)...
If there are contents within the div that has the curved corners, you have to set overflow: hidden
because otherwise the child div's overflow can give the impression that the border-radius
isn't working.
<!-- This will look like the border-radius isn't working-->
<div style="border: 1px solid black; border-radius: 10px;">
<div style="background: red;">
text!
</div>
</div>
<!-- but here the contents properly fit within the rounded div -->
<div style="border: 1px solid black; border-radius: 10px; overflow: hidden;">
<div style="background: red;">
text!
</div>
</div>

How to write to a CSV line by line?
What about this:

The separator between elements is
the string providing this method.
What does $_ mean in PowerShell?
I think the easiest way to think about this variable like input parameter in lambda expression in C#. I.e. $_
is similar to x
in x => Console.WriteLine(x)
anonymous function in C#. Consider following examples:
PowerShell:
1,2,3 | ForEach-Object {Write-Host $_}
Prints:
1
2
3
or
1,2,3 | Where-Object {$_ -gt 1}
Prints:
2
3
And compare this with C# syntax using LINQ:
var list = new List<int> { 1, 2, 3 };
list.ForEach( _ => Console.WriteLine( _ ));
Prints:
1
2
3
or
list.Where( _ => _ > 1)
.ToList()
.ForEach(s => Console.WriteLine(s));
Prints:
2
3
Compare 2 arrays which returns difference

How to enable MySQL Query Log?

How to compile python script to binary executable
Or use PyInstaller as an alternative to py2exe. Here is a good starting point. PyInstaller also lets you create executables for linux and mac...
Here is how one could fairly easily use PyInstaller to solve the issue at hand:
pyinstaller oldlogs.py
From the tool's documentation:
PyInstaller analyzes myscript.py and:
- Writes myscript.spec in the same folder as the script.
- Creates a folder build in the same folder as the script if it does not exist.
- Writes some log files and working files in the build folder.
- Creates a folder dist in the same folder as the script if it does not exist.
- Writes the myscript executable folder in the dist folder.
In the dist folder you find the bundled app you distribute to your users.
