Programs & Examples On #Crash

A crash is the result of an unrecoverable error that causes the program to stop completely.

What do I do when my program crashes with exception 0xc0000005 at address 0?

Problems with the stack frames could indicate stack corruption (a truely horrible beast), optimisation, or mixing frameworks such as C/C++/C#/Delphi and other craziness as that - there is no absolute standard with respect to stack frames. (Some languages do not even have them!).

So, I suggest getting slightly annoyed with the stack frame issues, ignoring it, and then just use Remy's answer.

Can anybody tell me details about hs_err_pid.log file generated when Tomcat crashes?

A very very good document regarding this topic is Troubleshooting Guide for Java from (originally) Sun. See the chapter "Troubleshooting System Crashes" for information about hs_err_pid* Files.

See Appendix C - Fatal Error Log

Per the guide, by default the file will be created in the working directory of the process if possible, or in the system temporary directory otherwise. A specific location can be chosen by passing in the -XX:ErrorFile product flag. It says:

If the -XX:ErrorFile= file flag is not specified, the system attempts to create the file in the working directory of the process. In the event that the file cannot be created in the working directory (insufficient space, permission problem, or other issue), the file is created in the temporary directory for the operating system.

Exception Error c0000005 in VC++

Exception code c0000005 is the code for an access violation. That means that your program is accessing (either reading or writing) a memory address to which it does not have rights. Most commonly this is caused by:

  • Accessing a stale pointer. That is accessing memory that has already been deallocated. Note that such stale pointer accesses do not always result in access violations. Only if the memory manager has returned the memory to the system do you get an access violation.
  • Reading off the end of an array. This is when you have an array of length N and you access elements with index >=N.

To solve the problem you'll need to do some debugging. If you are not in a position to get the fault to occur under your debugger on your development machine you should get a crash dump file and load it into your debugger. This will allow you to see where in the code the problem occurred and hopefully lead you to the solution. You'll need to have the debugging symbols associated with the executable in order to see meaningful stack traces.

Apache server keeps crashing, "caught SIGTERM, shutting down"

I had mysterious SIGTERM shutdowns in our L.A.M.P. server, and it turned out to be an error in a custom PHP module, which was caused by mismatched versions. It was found by looking in the apache access/error logs at the time of malfunction. Don't forget to turn error logging on.

Android Studio - How to increase Allocated Heap Size

IF by changing or creating the .studio.exe.vmoptions doesn't work, then try changing the gradle.properties file and change the heap size as per your requirement.

It really worked for me on my Windows 7 with 4Gb RAM and Android Studio 2.2 install on it.

Working properly with no error and displaying 'Gradle Sync complete'

C# : "A first chance exception of type 'System.InvalidOperationException'"

Consider using System.Windows.Forms.Timer instead of System.Threading.Timer for a GUI application, for timers that are based on the Windows message queue instead of on dedicated threads or the thread pool.

In your scenario, for the purpose of periodic updates of UI, it seems particularly appropriate since you don't really have a background work or long calculation to perform. You just want to do periodic small tasks that have to happen on the UI thread anyway.

Login with facebook android sdk app crash API 4

The official answer from Facebook (http://developers.facebook.com/bugs/282710765082535):

Mikhail,

The facebook android sdk no longer supports android 1.5 and 1.6. Please upgrade to the next api version.

Good luck with your implementation.

Android Room - simple select query - Cannot access database on the main thread

An elegant RxJava/Kotlin solution is to use Completable.fromCallable, which will give you an Observable which does not return a value, but can observed and subscribed on a different thread.

public Completable insert(Event event) {
    return Completable.fromCallable(new Callable<Void>() {
        @Override
        public Void call() throws Exception {
            return database.eventDao().insert(event)
        }
    }
}

Or in Kotlin:

fun insert(event: Event) : Completable = Completable.fromCallable {
    database.eventDao().insert(event)
}

You can the observe and subscribe as you would usually:

dataManager.insert(event)
    .subscribeOn(scheduler)
    .observeOn(AndroidSchedulers.mainThread())
    .subscribe(...)

How to automatically generate a stacktrace when my program crashes

See the Stack Trace facility in ACE (ADAPTIVE Communication Environment). It's already written to cover all major platforms (and more). The library is BSD-style licensed so you can even copy/paste the code if you don't want to use ACE.

Node.js heap out of memory

if you want to change the memory globally for node (windows) go to advanced system settings -> environment variables -> new user variable

variable name = NODE_OPTIONS
variable value = --max-old-space-size=4096

How do I obtain crash-data from my Android application?

Late to the party, I support and believe ACRA is the best option among all. Its easy to setup and configure. I have created a detailed guide with inputs from all over to fetch the crash report using ACRA and mail the same to my email address using MandrillAp.

iOS app with framework crashed on device, dyld: Library not loaded, Xcode 6 Beta

Surprisingly, not all of the necessary pieces are documented here, at least for Xcode 8.

My case was a custom-built framework as part of the same workspace. It turns out it was being built incorrectly. Based on jeremyhu's last response to this thread:

https://forums.developer.apple.com/thread/4687

I had to set Dynamic Library Install Name Base (DYLIB_INSTALL_NAME_BASE) under Build Settings of the Framework Project and then rebuild it. It was incorrectly set to $(LOCAL_LIBRARY_DIR) and I had to change it to @rpath.

So in the link processing stage in the App Project, it was instructing the host App to dynamically load the framework at runtime from /Library/Frameworks/fw.Framework/fw (as in, the root of the runtime filesystem) rather than path-to-App/Frameworks/fw.Framework/fw

Regarding all the other settings: it does have to be in 3 places in Build Phases, but these are all set at once when you just add it to the Embedded Binaries setting of the General tab of the hosting App.

I did not have to set up an extra Copy Files phase, which seems intuitively redundant with respect to the embedding stage anyway. By checking the tail end of the build transcript we can assure that that's not necessary.

PBXCp /Users/xyz/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/MyApp-cbcnqafhywqkjufwsvbzckecmjjs/Build/Products/Debug-iphoneos/MyFramework.framework

[Many verbose lines removed, but it's clear from the simplified transcript in the Xcode UI.]

I still have no idea why Xcode set the DYLIB_INSTALL_NAME_BASE value incorrectly on me.

How to get Android crash logs?

If you're using Eclipse, make sure you use debug and not run. Make sure you are in the debug perspective (top right) You may have to hit 'Resume' (F8) a few times for the log to print. The crash log will be in the Logcat window at the bottom- double click for fullscreen and make sure you scroll to the bottom. You'll see red text for errors, the crash trace will be something like

Round double in two decimal places in C#?

You should use

inputvalue=Math.Round(inputValue, 2, MidpointRounding.AwayFromZero)

Math.Round

Math.Round rounds a double-precision floating-point value to a specified number of fractional digits.

MidpointRounding

Specifies how mathematical rounding methods should process a number that is midway between two numbers.

Basically the function above will take your inputvalue and round it to 2 (or whichever number you specify) decimal places. With MidpointRounding.AwayFromZero when a number is halfway between two others, it is rounded toward the nearest number that is away from zero. There is also another option you can use that rounds towards the nearest even number.

What does [object Object] mean?

You can see value inside [object Object] like this

Alert.alert(  JSON.stringify(userDate)  );

Try like this

    realm.write(() => {
       const userFormData = realm.create('User',{
       user_email: value.username,
       user_password: value.password,
      });
     });

      const userDate = realm.objects('User').filtered('user_email == $0', value.username.toString(), );
      Alert.alert(  JSON.stringify(userDate)  );

Get element type with jQuery

Use Nodename over tagName :

nodeName contains all functionalities of tagName, plus a few more. Therefore nodeName is always the better choice.

see DOM Core

Angular: conditional class with *ngClass

Additionally, you can add with method function:

In HTML

<div [ngClass]="setClasses()">...</div>

In component.ts

// Set Dynamic Classes
  setClasses() {
    let classes = {
      constantClass: true,
      'conditional-class': this.item.id === 1
    }

    return classes;
  }

Error: could not find function "%>%"

The benefit is that the output of previous function is used. You do not need to repeat where the data source comes from, for example.

How to read a text file into a string variable and strip newlines?

I don't feel that anyone addressed the [ ] part of your question. When you read each line into your variable, because there were multiple lines before you replaced the \n with '' you ended up creating a list. If you have a variable of x and print it out just by

x

or print(x)

or str(x)

You will see the entire list with the brackets. If you call each element of the (array of sorts)

x[0] then it omits the brackets. If you use the str() function you will see just the data and not the '' either. str(x[0])

PHP - Move a file into a different folder on the server

Use the rename() function.

rename("user/image1.jpg", "user/del/image1.jpg");

MySQL - UPDATE query based on SELECT Query

For same table,

     (SELECT BILL_ID, COUNT(REGISTRATION_NUMBER) AS REG 
       FROM PHA_BILL_SEGMENT
        GROUP BY REGISTRATION_NUMBER, BILL_DATE, BILL_AMOUNT
        HAVING REG > 1) T
    SET PHA.BILL_DATE = PHA.BILL_DATE + 2
 WHERE PHA.BILL_ID = T.BILL_ID;

Algorithm to randomly generate an aesthetically-pleasing color palette

In php:

function pastelColors() {
    $r = dechex(round(((float) rand() / (float) getrandmax()) * 127) + 127);
    $g = dechex(round(((float) rand() / (float) getrandmax()) * 127) + 127);
    $b = dechex(round(((float) rand() / (float) getrandmax()) * 127) + 127);

    return "#" . $r . $g . $b;
}

How to symbolicate crash log Xcode?

Follow these steps in Xcode 10 to symbolicate a crash log from an app build on the same machine:

  1. Inside Organizer, locate the archive where the app is based on.
  2. Click on the Download Debug Symbols button. Nothing will appear in your Downloads folder, but that's OK.
  3. Connect the build machine to an iOS device.
  4. Select the device in Devices and Simulators.
  5. Click on the View Devices Logs button.
  6. Drag-and-drop the crash file to the left panel. The file must end with a .crash extension, otherwise the drag fails.
  7. Switch to the All Logs tab.
  8. Select the added crash file.
  9. The file should automatically symbolicate, otherwise use the right-click context menu item Re-Symbolicate Log.

WCF vs ASP.NET Web API

The new ASP.NET Web API is a continuation of the previous WCF Web API project (although some of the concepts have changed).

WCF was originally created to enable SOAP-based services. For simpler RESTful or RPCish services (think clients like jQuery) ASP.NET Web API should be good choice.


For us, WCF is used for SOAP and Web API for REST. I wish Web API supported SOAP too. We are not using advanced features of WCF. Here is comparison from MSDN:

enter image description here


ASP.net Web API is all about HTTP and REST based GET,POST,PUT,DELETE with well know ASP.net MVC style of programming and JSON returnable; web API is for all the light weight process and pure HTTP based components. For one to go ahead with WCF even for simple or simplest single web service it will bring all the extra baggage. For light weight simple service for ajax or dynamic calls always WebApi just solves the need. This neatly complements or helps in parallel to the ASP.net MVC.

Check out the podcast : Hanselminutes Podcast 264 - This is not your father's WCF - All about the WebAPI with Glenn Block by Scott Hanselman for more information.


In the scenarios listed below you should go for WCF:

  1. If you need to send data on protocols like TCP, MSMQ or MIME
  2. If the consuming client just knows how to consume SOAP messages

WEB API is a framework for developing RESTful/HTTP services.

There are so many clients that do not understand SOAP like Browsers, HTML5, in those cases WEB APIs are a good choice.

HTTP services header specifies how to secure service, how to cache the information, type of the message body and HTTP body can specify any type of content like HTML not just XML as SOAP services.

When saving, how can you check if a field has changed?

There is an attribute __dict__ which have all the fields as the keys and value as the field values. So we can just compare two of them

Just change the save function of model to the function below

def save(self, force_insert=False, force_update=False, using=None, update_fields=None):
    if self.pk is not None:
        initial = A.objects.get(pk=self.pk)
        initial_json, final_json = initial.__dict__.copy(), self.__dict__.copy()
        initial_json.pop('_state'), final_json.pop('_state')
        only_changed_fields = {k: {'final_value': final_json[k], 'initial_value': initial_json[k]} for k in initial_json if final_json[k] != initial_json[k]}
        print(only_changed_fields)
    super(A, self).save(force_insert=False, force_update=False, using=None, update_fields=None)

Example Usage:

class A(models.Model):
    name = models.CharField(max_length=200, null=True, blank=True)
    senior = models.CharField(choices=choices, max_length=3)
    timestamp = models.DateTimeField(null=True, blank=True)

    def save(self, force_insert=False, force_update=False, using=None, update_fields=None):
        if self.pk is not None:
            initial = A.objects.get(pk=self.pk)
            initial_json, final_json = initial.__dict__.copy(), self.__dict__.copy()
            initial_json.pop('_state'), final_json.pop('_state')
            only_changed_fields = {k: {'final_value': final_json[k], 'initial_value': initial_json[k]} for k in initial_json if final_json[k] != initial_json[k]}
            print(only_changed_fields)
        super(A, self).save(force_insert=False, force_update=False, using=None, update_fields=None)

yields output with only those fields that have been changed

{'name': {'initial_value': '1234515', 'final_value': 'nim'}, 'senior': {'initial_value': 'no', 'final_value': 'yes'}}

Best way to do a split pane in HTML

I found a working splitter, http://www.dreamchain.com/split-pane/, which works with jQuery v1.9. Note I had to add the following CSS code to get it working with a fixed bootstrap navigation bar.

fixed-left {
    position: absolute !important; /* to override relative */
    height: auto !important;
    top: 55px; /* Fixed navbar height */
    bottom: 0px;
}

regular expression for DOT

. matches any character so needs escaping i.e. \., or \\. within a Java string (because \ itself has special meaning within Java strings.)

You can then use \.\. or \.{2} to match exactly 2 dots.

How to configure multi-module Maven + Sonar + JaCoCo to give merged coverage report?

FAQ

Questions from the top of my head since that time I gone crazy with jacoco.

My application server (jBoss, Glassfish..) located in Iraq, Syria, whatever.. Is it possible to get multi-module coverage when running integration tests on it? Jenkins and Sonar are also on different servers.

Yes. You have to use jacoco agent that runs in mode output=tcpserver, jacoco ant lib. Basically two jars. This will give you 99% success.

How does jacoco agent works?

You append a string

-javaagent:[your_path]/jacocoagent.jar=destfile=/jacoco.exec,output=tcpserver,address=*

to your application server JAVA_OPTS and restart it. In this string only [your_path] have to be replaced with the path to jacocoagent.jar, stored(store it!) on your VM where app server runs. Since that time you start app server, all applications that are deployed will be dynamically monitored and their activity (meaning code usage) will be ready for you to get in jacocos .exec format by tcl request.

Could I reset jacoco agent to start collecting execution data only since the time my test start?

Yes, for that purpose you need jacocoant.jar and ant build script located in your jenkins workspace.

So basically what I need from http://www.eclemma.org/jacoco/ is jacocoant.jar located in my jenkins workspace, and jacocoagent.jar located on my app server VM?

That's right.

I don't want to use ant, I've heard that jacoco maven plugin can do all the things too.

That's not right, jacoco maven plugin can collect unit test data and some integration tests data(see Arquillian Jacoco), but if you have for example rest assured tests as a separated build in jenkins, and want to show multi-module coverage, I can't see how maven plugin can help you.

What exactly does jacoco agent produce?

Only coverage data in .exec format. Sonar then can read it.

Does jacoco need to know where my java classes located are?

No, sonar does, but not jacoco. When you do mvn sonar:sonar path to classes comes into play.

So what about the ant script?

It has to be presented in your jenkins workspace. Mine ant script, I called it jacoco.xml looks like that:

<project name="Jacoco library to collect code coverage remotely" xmlns:jacoco="antlib:org.jacoco.ant">
    <property name="jacoco.port" value="6300"/>
    <property name="jacocoReportFile" location="${workspace}/it-jacoco.exec"/>

    <taskdef uri="antlib:org.jacoco.ant" resource="org/jacoco/ant/antlib.xml">
        <classpath path="${workspace}/tools/jacoco/jacocoant.jar"/>
    </taskdef>

    <target name="jacocoReport">
            <jacoco:dump address="${jacoco.host}" port="${jacoco.port}" dump="true" reset="true" destfile="${jacocoReportFile}" append="false"/>
    </target>

    <target name="jacocoReset">
            <jacoco:dump address="${jacoco.host}" port="${jacoco.port}" reset="true" destfile="${jacocoReportFile}" append="false"/>
        <delete file="${jacocoReportFile}"/>
    </target>
</project>

Two mandatory params you should pass when invoking this script -Dworkspace=$WORKSPACE use it to point to your jenkins workspace and -Djacoco.host=yourappserver.com host without http://

Also notice that I put my jacocoant.jar to ${workspace}/tools/jacoco/jacocoant.jar

What should I do next?

Did you start your app server with jacocoagent.jar?

Did you put ant script and jacocoant.jar in your jenkins workspace?

If yes the last step is to configure a jenkins build. Here is the strategy:

  1. Invoke ant target jacocoReset to reset all previously collected data.
  2. Run your tests
  3. Invoke ant target jacocoReport to get report

If everything is right, you will see it-jacoco.exec in your build workspace.

Look at the screenshot, I also have ant installed in my workspace in $WORKSPACE/tools/ant dir, but you can use one that is installed in your jenkins.

enter image description here

How to push this report in sonar?

Maven sonar:sonar will do the job (don't forget to configure it), point it to main pom.xml so it will run through all modules. Use sonar.jacoco.itReportPath=$WORKSPACE/it-jacoco.exec parameter to tell sonar where your integration test report is located. Every time it will analyse new module classes, it will look for information about coverage in it-jacoco.exec.

I already have jacoco.exec in my `target` dir, `mvn sonar:sonar` ignores/removes it

By default mvn sonar:sonar does clean and deletes your target dir, use sonar.dynamicAnalysis=reuseReports to avoid it.

Javascript querySelector vs. getElementById

The functions getElementById and getElementsByClassName are very specific, while querySelector and querySelectorAll are more elaborate. My guess is that they will actually have a worse performance.

Also, you need to check for the support of each function in the browsers you are targetting. The newer it is, the higher probability of lack of support or the function being "buggy".

Setting Oracle 11g Session Timeout

Adam has already suggested database profiles.

You could check the SQLNET.ORA file. There's an EXPIRE_TIME parameter but this is for detecting lost connections, rather than terminating existing ones.

Given it happens overnight, it sounds more like an idle timeout, which could be down to a firewall between the app server and database server. Setting the EXPIRE_TIME may stop that happening (as there'll be check every 10 minutes to check the client is alive).

Or possibly the database is being shutdown and restarted and that is killing the connections.

Alternatively, you should be able to configure tomcat with a validationQuery so that it will automatically restart the connection without a tomcat restart

How to convert std::chrono::time_point to calendar datetime string with fractional seconds?

If you are to format a system_clock::time_point in the format of numpy datetime64, you could use:

std::string format_time_point(system_clock::time_point point)
{
    static_assert(system_clock::time_point::period::den == 1000000000 && system_clock::time_point::period::num == 1);
    std::string out(29, '0');
    char* buf = &out[0];
    std::time_t now_c = system_clock::to_time_t(point);
    std::strftime(buf, 21, "%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S.", std::localtime(&now_c));
    sprintf(buf+20, "%09ld", point.time_since_epoch().count() % 1000000000);
    return out;
}

As mentioned above, put gem: --no-document in your gem file. However, the system-wide gemrc will not always necessarily go into /etc/gemrc. If you are using RVM, or you have Ruby installed under /usr/local/bin, it needs to go in a different location. You can find this location by running irb and typing...

require 'rubygems'
Gem::ConfigFile::SYSTEM_WIDE_CONFIG_FILE

See the original post on this over here.

Correctly determine if date string is a valid date in that format

Give this a try:

$date = "2017-10-01";


function date_checker($input,$devider){
  $output = false;

  $input = explode($devider, $input);
  $year = $input[0];
  $month = $input[1];
  $day = $input[2];

  if (is_numeric($year) && is_numeric($month) && is_numeric($day)) {
    if (strlen($year) == 4 && strlen($month) == 2 && strlen($day) == 2) {
      $output = true;
    }
  }
  return $output;
}

if (date_checker($date, '-')) {
  echo "The function is working";
}else {
  echo "The function isNOT working";
}

How do I integrate Ajax with Django applications?

Easy ajax calls with Django

(26.10.2020)
This is in my opinion much cleaner and simpler than the correct answer. This one also includes how to add the csrftoken and using login_required methods with ajax.

The view

@login_required
def some_view(request):
    """Returns a json response to an ajax call. (request.user is available in view)"""
    # Fetch the attributes from the request body
    data_attribute = request.GET.get('some_attribute')  # Make sure to use POST/GET correctly
    # DO SOMETHING...
    return JsonResponse(data={}, status=200)

urls.py

urlpatterns = [
    path('some-view-does-something/', views.some_view, name='doing-something'),
]

The ajax call

The ajax call is quite simple, but is sufficient for most cases. You can fetch some values and put them in the data object, then in the view depicted above you can fetch their values again via their names.

You can find the csrftoken function in django's documentation. Basically just copy it and make sure it is rendered before your ajax call so that the csrftoken variable is defined.

$.ajax({
    url: "{% url 'doing-something' %}",
    headers: {'X-CSRFToken': csrftoken},
    data: {'some_attribute': some_value},
    type: "GET",
    dataType: 'json',
    success: function (data) {
        if (data) {
            console.log(data);
            // call function to do something with data
            process_data_function(data);
        }
    }
});

Add HTML to current page with ajax

This might be a bit off topic but I have rarely seen this used and it is a great way to minimize window relocations as well as manual html string creation in javascript.

This is very similar to the one above but this time we are rendering html from the response without reloading the current window.

If you intended to render some kind of html from the data you would receive as a response to the ajax call, it might be easier to send a HttpResponse back from the view instead of a JsonResponse. That allows you to create html easily which can then be inserted into an element.

The view

# The login required part is of course optional
@login_required
def create_some_html(request):
    """In this particular example we are filtering some model by a constraint sent in by 
    ajax and creating html to send back for those models who match the search"""
    # Fetch the attributes from the request body (sent in ajax data)
    search_input = request.GET.get('search_input')

    # Get some data that we want to render to the template
    if search_input:
        data = MyModel.objects.filter(name__contains=search_input) # Example
    else:
        data = []

    # Creating an html string using template and some data
    html_response = render_to_string('path/to/creation_template.html', context = {'models': data})

    return HttpResponse(html_response, status=200)

The html creation template for view

creation_template.html

{% for model in models %}
   <li class="xyz">{{ model.name }}</li>
{% endfor %}

urls.py

urlpatterns = [
    path('get-html/', views.create_some_html, name='get-html'),
]

The main template and ajax call

This is the template where we want to add the data to. In this example in particular we have a search input and a button that sends the search input's value to the view. The view then sends a HttpResponse back displaying data matching the search that we can render inside an element.

{% extends 'base.html' %}
{% load static %}
{% block content %}
    <input id="search-input" placeholder="Type something..." value="">
    <button id="add-html-button" class="btn btn-primary">Add Html</button>
    <ul id="add-html-here">
        <!-- This is where we want to render new html -->
    </ul>
{% end block %}

{% block extra_js %}
    <script>
        // When button is pressed fetch inner html of ul
        $("#add-html-button").on('click', function (e){
            e.preventDefault();
            let search_input = $('#search-input').val();
            let target_element = $('#add-html-here');
            $.ajax({
                url: "{% url 'get-html' %}",
                headers: {'X-CSRFToken': csrftoken},
                data: {'search_input': search_input},
                type: "GET",
                dataType: 'html',
                success: function (data) {
                    if (data) {
                        console.log(data);
                        // Add the http response to element
                        target_element.html(data);
                    }
                }
            });
        })
    </script>
{% endblock %}

Git - how delete file from remote repository

The easiest thing to do is to move the file from your local directory temporarily, then commit changes to your remote repo. Then add it back to your local repo, make sure to update .gitignore so it doesn't commit to remote again

How to pip or easy_install tkinter on Windows

get current date with 'yyyy-MM-dd' format in Angular 4

If you only want to display then you can use date pipe in HTML like this :

Just Date:

your date | date: 'dd MMM yyyy'

Date With Time:

your date | date: 'dd MMM yyyy hh:mm a'

And if you want to take input only date from new Date() then :

You can use angular formatDate() in ts file like this -

currentDate = new Date();

const cValue = formatDate(currentDate, 'yyyy-MM-dd', 'en-US');

How to set width to 100% in WPF

It is the container of the Grid that is imposing on its width. In this case, that's a ListBoxItem, which is left-aligned by default. You can set it to stretch as follows:

<ListBox>
    <!-- other XAML omitted, you just need to add the following bit -->
    <ListBox.ItemContainerStyle>
        <Style TargetType="ListBoxItem">
            <Setter Property="HorizontalAlignment" Value="Stretch"/>
        </Style>
    </ListBox.ItemContainerStyle>
</ListBox>

Hidden features of Python

Built-in base64, zlib, and rot13 codecs

Strings have encode and decode methods. Usually this is used for converting str to unicode and vice versa, e.g. with u = s.encode('utf8'). But there are some other handy builtin codecs. Compression and decompression with zlib (and bz2) is available without an explicit import:

>>> s = 'a' * 100
>>> s.encode('zlib')
'x\x9cKL\xa4=\x00\x00zG%\xe5'

Similarly you can encode and decode base64:

>>> 'Hello world'.encode('base64')
'SGVsbG8gd29ybGQ=\n'
>>> 'SGVsbG8gd29ybGQ=\n'.decode('base64')
'Hello world'

And, of course, you can rot13:

>>> 'Secret message'.encode('rot13')
'Frperg zrffntr'

Breaking out of nested loops

Use itertools.product!

from itertools import product
for x, y in product(range(10), range(10)):
    #do whatever you want
    break

Here's a link to itertools.product in the python documentation: http://docs.python.org/library/itertools.html#itertools.product

You can also loop over an array comprehension with 2 fors in it, and break whenever you want to.

>>> [(x, y) for y in ['y1', 'y2'] for x in ['x1', 'x2']]
[
    ('x1', 'y1'), ('x2', 'y1'),
    ('x1', 'y2'), ('x2', 'y2')
]

How to redirect 'print' output to a file using python?

Changing the value of sys.stdout does change the destination of all calls to print. If you use an alternative way to change the destination of print, you will get the same result.

Your bug is somewhere else:

  • it could be in the code you removed for your question (where does filename come from for the call to open?)
  • it could also be that you are not waiting for data to be flushed: if you print on a terminal, data is flushed after every new line, but if you print to a file, it's only flushed when the stdout buffer is full (4096 bytes on most systems).

Is right click a Javascript event?

Yes, oncontextmenu is probably the best alternative but be aware that it triggers on mouse down whereas click will trigger on mouse up.

Other related questions were asking about double right click - which apparently isn't supported except through manual timer checking. One reason you might want to be able to have right double click is if you need/want to support left-handed mouse input (button reversal). The browser implementations seem to make a lot of assumptions about how we should be using the available input devices.

Change the spacing of tick marks on the axis of a plot?

And if you don't want R to add decimals or zeros, you can stop it from drawing the x axis or the y axis or both using ...axt. Then, you can add your own ticks and labels:

plot(x, y, xaxt="n")
plot(x, y, yaxt="n")
axis(1 or 2, at=c(1, 5, 10), labels=c("First", "Second", "Third"))

dropdownlist set selected value in MVC3 Razor

For anyone that dont want to or dont make sense to use dropdownlistfor, here is how I did it in jQuery with .NET MVC set up.

  1. Front end Javascript -> getting data from model:
    var settings = @Html.Raw(Json.Encode(Model.GlobalSetting.NotificationFrequencySettings)); 

    SelectNotificationSettings(settings);

    function SelectNotificationSettings(settings) {
                $.each(settings, function (i, value) {
                    $("#" + value.NotificationItemTypeId + " option[value=" + value.NotificationFrequencyTypeId + "]").prop("selected", true);
                });
    }
  1. In razor html, you going to have few dropdownlist
 @Html.DropDownList(NotificationItemTypeEnum.GenerateSubscriptionNotification.ToString,
    notificationFrequencyOptions, optionLabel:=DbRes.T("Default", "CommonLabels"),
    htmlAttributes:=New With {.class = "form-control notification-item-type", .id = Convert.ToInt32(NotificationItemTypeEnum.GenerateSubscriptionNotification)})

And when page load, you js function is going to set the selected option based on value that's stored in @model.

Cheers.

How to run a hello.js file in Node.js on windows?

Go to cmd and type: node "C:\Path\To\File\Sample.js"

How do I use Ruby for shell scripting?

In ruby, the constant __FILE__ will always give you the path of the script you're running.

On Linux, /usr/bin/env is your friend:

#! /usr/bin/env ruby
# Extension of this script does not matter as long
# as it is executable (chmod +x)
puts File.expand_path(__FILE__)

On Windows it depends whether or not .rb files are associated with ruby. If they are:

# This script filename must end with .rb
puts File.expand_path(__FILE__)

If they are not, you have to explicitly invoke ruby on them, I use a intermediate .cmd file:

my_script.cmd:

@ruby %~dp0\my_script.rb

my_script.rb:

puts File.expand_path(__FILE__)

How to use the priority queue STL for objects?

A priority queue is an abstract data type that captures the idea of a container whose elements have "priorities" attached to them. An element of highest priority always appears at the front of the queue. If that element is removed, the next highest priority element advances to the front.

The C++ standard library defines a class template priority_queue, with the following operations:

push: Insert an element into the prioity queue.

top: Return (without removing it) a highest priority element from the priority queue.

pop: Remove a highest priority element from the priority queue.

size: Return the number of elements in the priority queue.

empty: Return true or false according to whether the priority queue is empty or not.

The following code snippet shows how to construct two priority queues, one that can contain integers and another one that can contain character strings:

#include <queue>

priority_queue<int> q1;
priority_queue<string> q2;

The following is an example of priority queue usage:

#include <string>
#include <queue>
#include <iostream>

using namespace std;  // This is to make available the names of things defined in the standard library.

int main()
{
    piority_queue<string> pq; // Creates a priority queue pq to store strings, and initializes the queue to be empty.

    pq.push("the quick");
    pq.push("fox");
    pq.push("jumped over");
    pq.push("the lazy dog");

    // The strings are ordered inside the priority queue in lexicographic (dictionary) order:
    // "fox", "jumped over", "the lazy dog", "the quick"
    //  The lowest priority string is "fox", and the highest priority string is "the quick"

    while (!pq.empty()) {
       cout << pq.top() << endl;  // Print highest priority string
       pq.pop();                    // Remmove highest priority string
    }

    return 0;
}

The output of this program is:

the quick
the lazy dog
jumped over
fox

Since a queue follows a priority discipline, the strings are printed from highest to lowest priority.

Sometimes one needs to create a priority queue to contain user defined objects. In this case, the priority queue needs to know the comparison criterion used to determine which objects have the highest priority. This is done by means of a function object belonging to a class that overloads the operator (). The overloaded () acts as < for the purpose of determining priorities. For example, suppose we want to create a priority queue to store Time objects. A Time object has three fields: hours, minutes, seconds:

struct Time {
    int h; 
    int m; 
    int s;
};

class CompareTime {
    public:
    bool operator()(Time& t1, Time& t2) // Returns true if t1 is earlier than t2
    {
       if (t1.h < t2.h) return true;
       if (t1.h == t2.h && t1.m < t2.m) return true;
       if (t1.h == t2.h && t1.m == t2.m && t1.s < t2.s) return true;
       return false;
    }
}

A priority queue to store times according the the above comparison criterion would be defined as follows:

priority_queue<Time, vector<Time>, CompareTime> pq;

Here is a complete program:

#include <iostream>
#include <queue>
#include <iomanip>

using namespace std;

struct Time {
    int h; // >= 0
    int m; // 0-59
    int s; // 0-59
};

class CompareTime {
public:
    bool operator()(Time& t1, Time& t2)
    {
       if (t1.h < t2.h) return true;
       if (t1.h == t2.h && t1.m < t2.m) return true;
       if (t1.h == t2.h && t1.m == t2.m && t1.s < t2.s) return true;
       return false;
    }
};

int main()
{
    priority_queue<Time, vector<Time>, CompareTime> pq;

    // Array of 4 time objects:

    Time t[4] = { {3, 2, 40}, {3, 2, 26}, {5, 16, 13}, {5, 14, 20}};

    for (int i = 0; i < 4; ++i)
       pq.push(t[i]);

    while (! pq.empty()) {
       Time t2 = pq.top();
       cout << setw(3) << t2.h << " " << setw(3) << t2.m << " " <<
       setw(3) << t2.s << endl;
       pq.pop();
    }

    return 0;
}

The program prints the times from latest to earliest:

5  16  13
5  14  20
3   2  40
3   2  26

If we wanted earliest times to have the highest priority, we would redefine CompareTime like this:

class CompareTime {
public:
    bool operator()(Time& t1, Time& t2) // t2 has highest prio than t1 if t2 is earlier than t1
    {
       if (t2.h < t1.h) return true;
       if (t2.h == t1.h && t2.m < t1.m) return true;
       if (t2.h == t1.h && t2.m == t1.m && t2.s < t1.s) return true;
       return false;
    }
};

Detect if user is scrolling

window.addEventListener("scroll",function(){
    window.lastScrollTime = new Date().getTime()
});
function is_scrolling() {
    return window.lastScrollTime && new Date().getTime() < window.lastScrollTime + 500
}

Change the 500 to the number of milliseconds after the last scroll event at which you consider the user to be "no longer scrolling".

(addEventListener is better than onScroll because the former can coexist nicely with any other code that uses onScroll.)

ORA-01950: no privileges on tablespace 'USERS'

You cannot insert data because you have a quota of 0 on the tablespace. To fix this, run

ALTER USER <user> quota unlimited on <tablespace name>;

or

ALTER USER <user> quota 100M on <tablespace name>;

as a DBA user (depending on how much space you need / want to grant).

grabbing first row in a mysql query only

To return only one row use LIMIT 1:

SELECT *
FROM tbl_foo
WHERE name = 'sarmen'
LIMIT 1

It doesn't make sense to say 'first row' or 'last row' unless you have an ORDER BY clause. Assuming you add an ORDER BY clause then you can use LIMIT in the following ways:

  • To get the first row use LIMIT 1.
  • To get the 2nd row you can use limit with an offset: LIMIT 1, 1.
  • To get the last row invert the order (change ASC to DESC or vice versa) then use LIMIT 1.

Given a starting and ending indices, how can I copy part of a string in C?

Just use memcpy.

If the destination isn't big enough, strncpy won't null terminate. if the destination is huge compared to the source, strncpy just fills the destination with nulls after the string. strncpy is pointless, and unsuitable for copying strings.

strncpy is like memcpy except it fills the destination with nulls once it sees one in the source. It's absolutely useless for string operations. It's for fixed with 0 padded records.

How to compress an image via Javascript in the browser?

I had an issue with the downscaleImage() function posted above by @daniel-allen-langdon in that the image.width and image.height properties are not available immediately because the image load is asynchronous.

Please see updated TypeScript example below that takes this into account, uses async functions, and resizes the image based on the longest dimension rather than just the width

function getImage(dataUrl: string): Promise<HTMLImageElement> 
{
    return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
        const image = new Image();
        image.src = dataUrl;
        image.onload = () => {
            resolve(image);
        };
        image.onerror = (el: any, err: ErrorEvent) => {
            reject(err.error);
        };
    });
}

export async function downscaleImage(
        dataUrl: string,  
        imageType: string,  // e.g. 'image/jpeg'
        resolution: number,  // max width/height in pixels
        quality: number   // e.g. 0.9 = 90% quality
    ): Promise<string> {

    // Create a temporary image so that we can compute the height of the image.
    const image = await getImage(dataUrl);
    const oldWidth = image.naturalWidth;
    const oldHeight = image.naturalHeight;
    console.log('dims', oldWidth, oldHeight);

    const longestDimension = oldWidth > oldHeight ? 'width' : 'height';
    const currentRes = longestDimension == 'width' ? oldWidth : oldHeight;
    console.log('longest dim', longestDimension, currentRes);

    if (currentRes > resolution) {
        console.log('need to resize...');

        // Calculate new dimensions
        const newSize = longestDimension == 'width'
            ? Math.floor(oldHeight / oldWidth * resolution)
            : Math.floor(oldWidth / oldHeight * resolution);
        const newWidth = longestDimension == 'width' ? resolution : newSize;
        const newHeight = longestDimension == 'height' ? resolution : newSize;
        console.log('new width / height', newWidth, newHeight);

        // Create a temporary canvas to draw the downscaled image on.
        const canvas = document.createElement('canvas');
        canvas.width = newWidth;
        canvas.height = newHeight;

        // Draw the downscaled image on the canvas and return the new data URL.
        const ctx = canvas.getContext('2d')!;
        ctx.drawImage(image, 0, 0, newWidth, newHeight);
        const newDataUrl = canvas.toDataURL(imageType, quality);
        return newDataUrl;
    }
    else {
        return dataUrl;
    }

}

SQL set values of one column equal to values of another column in the same table

I would do it this way:

UPDATE YourTable SET B = COALESCE(B, A);

COALESCE is a function that returns its first non-null argument.

In this example, if B on a given row is not null, the update is a no-op.

If B is null, the COALESCE skips it and uses A instead.

Recreating a Dictionary from an IEnumerable<KeyValuePair<>>

If you're using .NET 3.5 or .NET 4, it's easy to create the dictionary using LINQ:

Dictionary<string, ArrayList> result = target.GetComponents()
                                      .ToDictionary(x => x.Key, x => x.Value);

There's no such thing as an IEnumerable<T1, T2> but a KeyValuePair<TKey, TValue> is fine.

Open terminal here in Mac OS finder

Check out Open Terminal Here. It may be the most similar to "Open Command Window Here." I used >cdto and this is very similar but this seems to be a little better at dealing with Spaces... but not perfect.

What it has that is very nice is the ability to "detect key-down events at the start of the application and used them to modify the behavior of the script" allowing the script to open a new tab in the front most terminal window when invoked by holding down ? key. Neat trick.

Also note PCheese's answer; it is probably more useful for heavy terminal users!

how to add json library

AFAIK the json module was added in version 2.6, see here. I'm guessing you can update your python installation to the latest stable 2.6 from this page.

Efficient way to rotate a list in python

If efficiency is your goal, (cycles? memory?) you may be better off looking at the array module: http://docs.python.org/library/array.html

Arrays do not have the overhead of lists.

As far as pure lists go though, what you have is about as good as you can hope to do.

Using any() and all() to check if a list contains one set of values or another

Generally speaking:

all and any are functions that take some iterable and return True, if

  • in the case of all(), no values in the iterable are falsy;
  • in the case of any(), at least one value is truthy.

A value x is falsy iff bool(x) == False. A value x is truthy iff bool(x) == True.

Any non-booleans in the iterable will be fine — bool(x) will coerce any x according to these rules: 0, 0.0, None, [], (), [], set(), and other empty collections will yield False, anything else True. The docstring for bool uses the terms 'true'/'false' for 'truthy'/'falsy', and True/False for the concrete boolean values.


In your specific code samples:

You misunderstood a little bit how these functions work. Hence, the following does something completely not what you thought:

if any(foobars) == big_foobar:

...because any(foobars) would first be evaluated to either True or False, and then that boolean value would be compared to big_foobar, which generally always gives you False (unless big_foobar coincidentally happened to be the same boolean value).

Note: the iterable can be a list, but it can also be a generator/generator expression (˜ lazily evaluated/generated list) or any other iterator.

What you want instead is:

if any(x == big_foobar for x in foobars):

which basically first constructs an iterable that yields a sequence of booleans—for each item in foobars, it compares the item to big_foobar and emits the resulting boolean into the resulting sequence:

tmp = (x == big_foobar for x in foobars)

then any walks over all items in tmp and returns True as soon as it finds the first truthy element. It's as if you did the following:

In [1]: foobars = ['big', 'small', 'medium', 'nice', 'ugly']                                        

In [2]: big_foobar = 'big'                                                                          

In [3]: any(['big' == big_foobar, 'small' == big_foobar, 'medium' == big_foobar, 'nice' == big_foobar, 'ugly' == big_foobar])        
Out[3]: True

Note: As DSM pointed out, any(x == y for x in xs) is equivalent to y in xs but the latter is more readable, quicker to write and runs faster.

Some examples:

In [1]: any(x > 5 for x in range(4))
Out[1]: False

In [2]: all(isinstance(x, int) for x in range(10))
Out[2]: True

In [3]: any(x == 'Erik' for x in ['Erik', 'John', 'Jane', 'Jim'])
Out[3]: True

In [4]: all([True, True, True, False, True])
Out[4]: False

How to truncate milliseconds off of a .NET DateTime

2 Extension methods for the solutions mentioned above

    public static bool LiesAfterIgnoringMilliseconds(this DateTime theDate, DateTime compareDate, DateTimeKind kind)
    {
        DateTime thisDate = new DateTime(theDate.Year, theDate.Month, theDate.Day, theDate.Hour, theDate.Minute, theDate.Second, kind);
        compareDate = new DateTime(compareDate.Year, compareDate.Month, compareDate.Day, compareDate.Hour, compareDate.Minute, compareDate.Second, kind);

        return thisDate > compareDate;
    }


    public static bool LiesAfterOrEqualsIgnoringMilliseconds(this DateTime theDate, DateTime compareDate, DateTimeKind kind)
    {
        DateTime thisDate = new DateTime(theDate.Year, theDate.Month, theDate.Day, theDate.Hour, theDate.Minute, theDate.Second, kind);
        compareDate = new DateTime(compareDate.Year, compareDate.Month, compareDate.Day, compareDate.Hour, compareDate.Minute, compareDate.Second, kind);

        return thisDate >= compareDate;
    }

usage:

bool liesAfter = myObject.DateProperty.LiesAfterOrEqualsIgnoringMilliseconds(startDateTime, DateTimeKind.Utc);

Remove "whitespace" between div element

Using a <br/> for making a new row it's a bad solution from the start. Make your container #div1 to have a width equal to 3 child-divs. <br/> in my opinion should not be used in other places than paragraphs.

Access a JavaScript variable from PHP

JS ist browser-based, PHP is server-based. You have to generate some browser-based request/signal to get the data from the JS into the PHP. Take a look into Ajax.

How to display (print) vector in Matlab?

Here's another approach that takes advantage of Matlab's strjoin function. With strjoin it's easy to customize the delimiter between values.

x = [1, 2, 3];
fprintf('Answer: (%s)\n', strjoin(cellstr(num2str(x(:))),', '));

This results in: Answer: (1, 2, 3)

Pretty Printing a pandas dataframe

I've just found a great tool for that need, it is called tabulate.

It prints tabular data and works with DataFrame.

from tabulate import tabulate
import pandas as pd

df = pd.DataFrame({'col_two' : [0.0001, 1e-005 , 1e-006, 1e-007],
                   'column_3' : ['ABCD', 'ABCD', 'long string', 'ABCD']})
print(tabulate(df, headers='keys', tablefmt='psql'))

+----+-----------+-------------+
|    |   col_two | column_3    |
|----+-----------+-------------|
|  0 |    0.0001 | ABCD        |
|  1 |    1e-05  | ABCD        |
|  2 |    1e-06  | long string |
|  3 |    1e-07  | ABCD        |
+----+-----------+-------------+

Note:

To suppress row indices for all types of data, pass showindex="never" or showindex=False.

Django DoesNotExist

The solution that i believe is best and optimized is:

try:
   #your code
except "ModelName".DoesNotExist:
   #your code

What exactly do "u" and "r" string flags do, and what are raw string literals?

Maybe this is obvious, maybe not, but you can make the string '\' by calling x=chr(92)

x=chr(92)
print type(x), len(x) # <type 'str'> 1
y='\\'
print type(y), len(y) # <type 'str'> 1
x==y   # True
x is y # False

Post-increment and Pre-increment concept?

All four answers so far are incorrect, in that they assert a specific order of events.

Believing that "urban legend" has led many a novice (and professional) astray, to wit, the endless stream of questions about Undefined Behavior in expressions.

So.

For the built-in C++ prefix operator,

++x

increments x and produces (as the expression's result) x as an lvalue, while

x++

increments x and produces (as the expression's result) the original value of x.

In particular, for x++ there is no no time ordering implied for the increment and production of original value of x. The compiler is free to emit machine code that produces the original value of x, e.g. it might be present in some register, and that delays the increment until the end of the expression (next sequence point).

Folks who incorrectly believe the increment must come first, and they are many, often conclude from that certain expressions must have well defined effect, when they actually have Undefined Behavior.

Reading CSV file and storing values into an array

java.lang.ClassCastException

@Lauren?iu Dascalu's answer explains how / why you get a ClassCastException.

Your exception message looks rather suspicious to me, but it might help you to know that "[Lcom.rsa.authagent.authapi.realmstat.AUTHw" means that the actual type of the object that you were trying to cast was com.rsa.authagent.authapi.realmstat.AUTHw[]; i.e. it was an array object.

Normally, the next steps to solving a problem like this are:

  • examining the stacktrace to figure out which line of which class threw the exception,
  • examining the corresponding source code, to see what the expected type, and
  • tracing back to see where the object with the "wrong" type came from.

How to handle the new window in Selenium WebDriver using Java?

I have an utility method to switch to the required window as shown below

public class Utility 
{
    public static WebDriver getHandleToWindow(String title){

        //parentWindowHandle = WebDriverInitialize.getDriver().getWindowHandle(); // save the current window handle.
        WebDriver popup = null;
        Set<String> windowIterator = WebDriverInitialize.getDriver().getWindowHandles();
        System.err.println("No of windows :  " + windowIterator.size());
        for (String s : windowIterator) {
          String windowHandle = s; 
          popup = WebDriverInitialize.getDriver().switchTo().window(windowHandle);
          System.out.println("Window Title : " + popup.getTitle());
          System.out.println("Window Url : " + popup.getCurrentUrl());
          if (popup.getTitle().equals(title) ){
              System.out.println("Selected Window Title : " + popup.getTitle());
              return popup;
          }

        }
                System.out.println("Window Title :" + popup.getTitle());
                System.out.println();
            return popup;
        }
}

It will take you to desired window once title of the window is passed as parameter. In your case you can do.

Webdriver childDriver = Utility.getHandleToWindow("titleOfChildWindow");

and then again switch to parent window using the same method

Webdriver parentDriver = Utility.getHandleToWindow("titleOfParentWindow");

This method works effectively when dealing with multiple windows.

Calling a particular PHP function on form submit

you don't need this code

<?php
function display()
{
echo "hello".$_POST["studentname"];
}
?>

Instead, you can check whether the form is submitted by checking the post variables using isset.

here goes the code

if(isset($_POST)){
echo "hello ".$_POST['studentname'];
}

Styling JQuery UI Autocomplete

Based on @md-nazrul-islam reply, This is what I did with SCSS:

ul.ui-autocomplete {
    position: absolute;
    top: 100%;
    left: 0;
    z-index: 1000;
    float: left;
    display: none;
    min-width: 160px;
    margin: 0 0 10px 25px;
    list-style: none;
    background-color: #ffffff;
    border: 1px solid #ccc;
    border-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);
    //@include border-radius(5px);
    @include box-shadow( rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1) 0 5px 10px );
    @include background-clip(padding-box);
    *border-right-width: 2px;
    *border-bottom-width: 2px;

    li.ui-menu-item{
        padding:0 .5em;
        line-height:2em;
        font-size:.8em;
        &.ui-state-focus{
            background: #F7F7F7;
        }
    }

}

making a paragraph in html contain a text from a file

You can do something like that in pure html using an <object> tag:
<div><object data="file.txt"></object></div>

This method has some limitations though, like, it won't fit size of the block to the content - you have to specify width and height manually. And styles won't be applied to the text.

ES6 map an array of objects, to return an array of objects with new keys

You just need to wrap object in ()

_x000D_
_x000D_
var arr = [{_x000D_
  id: 1,_x000D_
  name: 'bill'_x000D_
}, {_x000D_
  id: 2,_x000D_
  name: 'ted'_x000D_
}]_x000D_
_x000D_
var result = arr.map(person => ({ value: person.id, text: person.name }));_x000D_
console.log(result)
_x000D_

Meaning of ${project.basedir} in pom.xml

There are a set of available properties to all Maven projects.

From Introduction to the POM:

project.basedir: The directory that the current project resides in.

This means this points to where your Maven projects resides on your system. It corresponds to the location of the pom.xml file. If your POM is located inside /path/to/project/pom.xml then this property will evaluate to /path/to/project.

Some properties are also inherited from the Super POM, which is the case for project.build.directory. It is the value inside the <project><build><directory> element of the POM. You can get a description of all those values by looking at the Maven model. For project.build.directory, it is:

The directory where all files generated by the build are placed. The default value is target.

This is the directory that will hold every generated file by the build.

Set padding for UITextField with UITextBorderStyleNone

Swift version:

extension UITextField {
    @IBInspectable var padding_left: CGFloat {
        get {
            LF.log("WARNING no getter for UITextField.padding_left")
            return 0
        }
        set (f) {
            layer.sublayerTransform = CATransform3DMakeTranslation(f, 0, 0)
        }
    }
}

So that you can assign value in IB

How to get my Android device Internal Download Folder path

if a device has an SD card, you use:

Environment.getExternalStorageState() 

if you don't have an SD card, you use:

Environment.getDataDirectory()

if there is no SD card, you can create your own directory on the device locally.

    //if there is no SD card, create new directory objects to make directory on device
        if (Environment.getExternalStorageState() == null) {
                        //create new file directory object
            directory = new File(Environment.getDataDirectory()

What's the best way to join on the same table twice?

SELECT
    T1.ID
    T1.PhoneNumber1,
    T1.PhoneNumber2
    T2A.SomeOtherField AS "SomeOtherField of PhoneNumber1",
    T2B.SomeOtherField AS "SomeOtherField of PhoneNumber2"  
FROM
    Table1 T1
    LEFT JOIN Table2 T2A ON T1.PhoneNumber1 = T2A.PhoneNumber
    LEFT JOIN Table2 T2B ON T1.PhoneNumber2 = T2B.PhoneNumber
WHERE
    T1.ID = 'FOO';

LEFT JOIN or JOIN also return same result. Tested success with PostgreSQL 13.1.1 .

How to pass parameter to a promise function

Wrap your Promise inside a function or it will start to do its job right away. Plus, you can pass parameters to the function:

var some_function = function(username, password)
{
 return new Promise(function(resolve, reject)
 {
  /*stuff using username, password*/
  if ( /* everything turned out fine */ )
  {
   resolve("Stuff worked!");
  }
  else
  {
   reject(Error("It broke"));
  }
 });
}

Then, use it:

some_module.some_function(username, password).then(function(uid)
{
 // stuff
})

 

ES6:

const some_function = (username, password) =>
{
 return new Promise((resolve, reject) =>
 {
  /*stuff using username, password*/

  if ( /* everything turned out fine */ )
  {
   resolve("Stuff worked!");
  }
  else
  {
   reject(Error("It broke"));
  }
 });
};

Use:

some_module.some_function(username, password).then(uid =>
{
 // stuff
});

cannot resolve symbol javafx.application in IntelliJ Idea IDE

As indicated here, JavaFX is no longer included in openjdk.

So check, if you have <Java SDK root>/jre/lib/ext/jfxrt.jar on your classpath under Project Structure -> SDKs -> 1.x -> Classpath? If not, that could be why. Try adding it and see if that fixes your issue, e.g. on Ubuntu, install then openjfx package with sudo apt-get install openjfx.

Passing parameter using onclick or a click binding with KnockoutJS

Use a binding, like in this example:

    var self = this;
    this.SearchManager = function (search) {
        console.log(search);
    };
}();

How to create a zip archive of a directory in Python?

Modern Python (3.6+) using the pathlib module for concise OOP-like handling of paths, and pathlib.Path.rglob() for recursive globbing. As far as I can tell, this is equivalent to George V. Reilly's answer: zips with compression, the topmost element is a directory, keeps empty dirs, uses relative paths.

from pathlib import Path
from zipfile import ZIP_DEFLATED, ZipFile

from os import PathLike
from typing import Union


def zip_dir(zip_name: str, source_dir: Union[str, PathLike]):
    src_path = Path(source_dir).expanduser().resolve(strict=True)
    with ZipFile(zip_name, 'w', ZIP_DEFLATED) as zf:
        for file in src_path.rglob('*'):
            zf.write(file, file.relative_to(src_path.parent))

Note: as optional type hints indicate, zip_name can't be a Path object (would be fixed in 3.6.2+).

Angular 2 Cannot find control with unspecified name attribute on formArrays

This happened to me because I left a formControlName empty (formControlName=""). Since I didn't need that extra form control, I deleted it and the error was resolved.

Integer division with remainder in JavaScript?

I'm no expert in bitwise operators, but here's another way to get the whole number:

var num = ~~(a / b);

This will work properly for negative numbers as well, while Math.floor() will round in the wrong direction.

This seems correct as well:

var num = (a / b) >> 0;

Performing a query on a result from another query?

Usually you can plug a Query's result (which is basically a table) as the FROM clause source of another query, so something like this will be written:

SELECT COUNT(*), SUM(SUBQUERY.AGE) from
(
  SELECT availables.bookdate AS Date, DATEDIFF(now(),availables.updated_at) as Age
  FROM availables
  INNER JOIN rooms
  ON availables.room_id=rooms.id
  WHERE availables.bookdate BETWEEN '2009-06-25' AND date_add('2009-06-25', INTERVAL 4 DAY) AND rooms.hostel_id = 5094
  GROUP BY availables.bookdate
) AS SUBQUERY

React js onClick can't pass value to method

Easy Way

Use an arrow function:

return (
  <th value={column} onClick={() => this.handleSort(column)}>{column}</th>
);

This will create a new function that calls handleSort with the right params.

Better Way

Extract it into a sub-component. The problem with using an arrow function in the render call is it will create a new function every time, which ends up causing unneeded re-renders.

If you create a sub-component, you can pass handler and use props as the arguments, which will then re-render only when the props change (because the handler reference now never changes):

Sub-component

class TableHeader extends Component {
  handleClick = () => {
    this.props.onHeaderClick(this.props.value);
  }

  render() {
    return (
      <th onClick={this.handleClick}>
        {this.props.column}
      </th>
    );
  }
}

Main component

{this.props.defaultColumns.map((column) => (
  <TableHeader
    value={column}
    onHeaderClick={this.handleSort}
  />
))}

Old Easy Way (ES5)

Use .bind to pass the parameter you want, this way you are binding the function with the Component context :

return (
  <th value={column} onClick={this.handleSort.bind(this, column)}>{column}</th>
);

How to set HTML Auto Indent format on Sublime Text 3?

This is an adaptation of the above answer, but should be more complete.

To be clear, this is to re-introduce previous auto-indent features when HTML files are open in Sublime Text. So when you finish a tag, it automatically indents for the next element.

Windows Users

Go to C:\Program Files\Sublime Text 3\Packages extract HTML.sublime-package as if it is a zip file to a directory.

How to edit default dark theme for Visual Studio Code?

tldr

You can get the colors for any theme (including the builtin ones) by switching to the theme then choosing Developer > Generate Color Theme From Current Settings from the command palette.

Details

  1. Switch to the builtin theme you wish to modify by selecting Preferences: Color Theme from the command palette then choosing the theme.

  2. Get the colors for that theme by choosing Developer > Generate Color Theme From Current Settings from the command palette. Save the file with the suffix -color-theme.jsonc.
    The color-theme part will enable color picker widgets when editing the file and jsonc sets the filetype to JSON with comments.

  3. From the command palette choose Preferences: Open Settings (JSON) to open your settings.json file. Then add your desired changes to either the workbench.colorCustomizations or tokenColorCustomizations section.

    • To restrict the settings to just this theme, use an associative arrays where the key is the theme name in brackets ([]) and the value is an associative array of settings.
    • The theme name can be found in settings.json at workbench.colorTheme.

For example, the following customizes the theme listed as Dark+ (default dark) from the Color Theme list. It sets the editor background to near black and the syntax highlighting for comments to a dim gray.

// settings.json
"workbench.colorCustomizations": {
    "[Default Dark+]": {
        "editor.background": "#19191f"
    }
},
"editor.tokenColorCustomizations": {
    "[Default Dark+]": {
        "comments": "#5F6167"
    }
},

How do I clone a generic list in C#?

There is a simple way to clone objects in C# using a JSON serializer and deserializer.

You can create an extension class:

using Newtonsoft.Json;

static class typeExtensions
{
    [Extension()]
    public static T jsonCloneObject<T>(T source)
    {
    string json = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(source);
    return JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<T>(json);
    }
}

To clone and object:

obj clonedObj = originalObj.jsonCloneObject;

Django -- Template tag in {% if %} block

{% for source in sources %}
  <tr>
    <td>{{ source }}</td>
    <td>
      {% ifequal title source %}
        Just now!
      {% endifequal %}
    </td>
  </tr>
{% endfor %}

                or


{% for source in sources %}
      <tr>
        <td>{{ source }}</td>
        <td>
          {% if title == source %}
            Just now!
          {% endif %}
        </td>
      </tr>
    {% endfor %}

DataGridView.Clear()

If you want clear a dataGridView not binded to DataSource but manually loaded you can use this simple code:

datagridview.Rows.Clear();
datagridview.Columns.Clear();

Select tableview row programmatically

Use this category to select a table row and execute a given segue after a delay.
Call this within your viewDidAppear method:

How do I change the text size in a label widget, python tkinter

Try passing width=200 as additional paramater when creating the Label.

This should work in creating label with specified width.

If you want to change it later, you can use:

label.config(width=200)

As you want to change the size of font itself you can try:

label.config(font=("Courier", 44))

What is the maximum length of a table name in Oracle?

I'm working on Oracle 12c 12.1. However, doesn't seem like it allows more than 30 characters for column/table names.

Read through an oracle page which mentions 30 bytes. https://docs.oracle.com/database/121/SQLRF/sql_elements008.htm#SQLRF00223

In 12c although the all_tab_columns do say VARCHAR2(128) for Table_Name, it does not allow more than 30 bytes name.

Found another article about 12c R2, which seems to be allowing this up to 128 characters. https://community.oracle.com/ideas/3338

Check if ADODB connection is open

ADO Recordset has .State property, you can check if its value is adStateClosed or adStateOpen

If Not (rs Is Nothing) Then
  If (rs.State And adStateOpen) = adStateOpen Then rs.Close
  Set rs = Nothing
End If

MSDN about State property

Edit; The reason not to check .State against 1 or 0 is because even if it works 99.99% of the time, it is still possible to have other flags set which will cause the If statement fail the adStateOpen check.

Edit2:

For Late binding without the ActiveX Data Objects referenced, you have few options. Use the value of adStateOpen constant from ObjectStateEnum

If Not (rs Is Nothing) Then
  If (rs.State And 1) = 1 Then rs.Close
  Set rs = Nothing
End If

Or you can define the constant yourself to make your code more readable (defining them all for a good example.)

Const adStateClosed As Long = 0 'Indicates that the object is closed.
Const adStateOpen As Long = 1 'Indicates that the object is open.
Const adStateConnecting As Long = 2 'Indicates that the object is connecting.
Const adStateExecuting As Long = 4 'Indicates that the object is executing a command.
Const adStateFetching As Long = 8 'Indicates that the rows of the object are being retrieved.    

[...]

If Not (rs Is Nothing) Then

    ' ex. If (0001 And 0001) = 0001 (only open flag) -> true
    ' ex. If (1001 And 0001) = 0001 (open and retrieve) -> true
    '    This second example means it is open, but its value is not 1
    '    and If rs.State = 1 -> false, even though it is open
    If (rs.State And adStateOpen) = adStateOpen Then 
        rs.Close
    End If

    Set rs = Nothing
End If

Is there an equivalent of CSS max-width that works in HTML emails?

There is a trick you can do for Outlook 2007 using conditional html comments.
The code below will make sure that Outlook table is 800px wide, its not max-width but it works better than letting the table span across the entire window.

<!--[if gte mso 9]>
<style>
#tableForOutlook {
  width:800px;
}
</style>
<![endif]-->

<table style="width:98%;max-width:800px">
<!--[if gte mso 9]>
  <table id="tableForOutlook"><tr><td>
<![endif]-->
    <tr><td>
    [Your Content Goes Here]
    </td></tr>
<!--[if gte mso 9]>

Programmatically get height of navigation bar

UIImage*image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"logo"];

float targetHeight = self.navigationController.navigationBar.frame.size.height;
float logoRatio = image.size.width / image.size.height;
float targetWidth = targetHeight * logoRatio;

UIImageView*logoView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:image];
// X or Y position can not be manipulated because autolayout handles positions.
//[logoView setFrame:CGRectMake((self.navigationController.navigationBar.frame.size.width - targetWidth) / 2 , (self.navigationController.navigationBar.frame.size.height - targetHeight) / 2 , targetWidth, targetHeight)];
[logoView setFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, targetWidth, targetHeight)];
self.navigationItem.titleView = logoView;

// How much you pull out the strings and struts, with autolayout, your image will fill the width on navigation bar. So setting only height and content mode is enough/
[logoView setContentMode:UIViewContentModeScaleAspectFit];

/* Autolayout constraints also can not be manipulated since navigation bar has  immutable constraints
self.navigationItem.titleView.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false;

NSDictionary*metricsArray = @{@"width":[NSNumber numberWithFloat:targetWidth],@"height":[NSNumber numberWithFloat:targetHeight],@"margin":[NSNumber numberWithFloat:20]};
NSDictionary*viewsArray = @{@"titleView":self.navigationItem.titleView};

[self.navigationItem.titleView addConstraints:[NSLayoutConstraint constraintsWithVisualFormat:@"|-(>margin=)-H:[titleView(width)]-(>margin=)-|" options:NSLayoutFormatAlignAllCenterX metrics:metricsArray views:viewsArray]];
[self.navigationItem.titleView addConstraints:[NSLayoutConstraint constraintsWithVisualFormat:@"V:[titleView(height)]" options:0 metrics:metricsArray views:viewsArray]];

NSLog(@"%f", self.navigationItem.titleView.width );
*/

So all we actually need is

UIImage*image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"logo"];
UIImageView*logoView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:image];
float targetHeight = self.navigationController.navigationBar.frame.size.height;
[logoView setFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 0, targetHeight)];
[logoView setContentMode:UIViewContentModeScaleAspectFit];

self.navigationItem.titleView = logoView;

How do I resolve ClassNotFoundException?

I was trying to run .jar from C# code using Process class. The java code ran successfully from eclipse but it doesn't from C# visual studio and even clicking directly on the jar file, it always stopped with ClassNotFoundException: exception.

How do I set a JLabel's background color?

Use

label.setOpaque(true);

Otherwise the background is not painted, since the default of opaque is false for JLabel.

From the JavaDocs:

If true the component paints every pixel within its bounds. Otherwise, the component may not paint some or all of its pixels, allowing the underlying pixels to show through.

For more information, read the Java Tutorial How to Use Labels.

ORDER BY using Criteria API

It's hard to know for sure without seeing the mappings (see @Juha's comment), but I think you want something like the following:

Criteria c3 = c2.createCriteria("kind");
c3.addOrder(Order.asc("value"));
return c.list();

How to get the version of ionic framework?

That is the version number of the Ionic CLI, which is different from the version number of Ionic's library. Here are a couple easy ways to check the version.

In the browser console, you can run ionic.version and it will print to the console what version it is.

You can also look at the bower.json file in your app, and it will show the version number like you see here. https://github.com/ionic-in-action/chapter5/blob/master/bower.json#L5

How can I jump to class/method definition in Atom text editor?

This feature has been built-in into Atom editor (see: symbols-view package), but you need to generate ctags symbols file for your project GH-9, GH-20.

To do that, install ctags command (e.g. brew install ctags on macOS), then:

  1. Append, link or copy ctags-config to your ~/.ctags, example on macOS:

    ln -vs "$(find /Applications/Atom.app -name ctags-config -print -quit)" ~/.ctags
    
  2. Go to your project folder and run:

    cd your/project/directory
    ctags -R .
    
  3. Restart Atom editor.


Alternatively you can use symbol-gen package to generate ctags symbols file for your project based on the options found in .ctags file. You can install it from Atom Package Manager by: apm install symbol-gen. Then hit CMD-Alt-G to generate tags file for your project.


After following above, you can use Go To Declaration option from the context menu.

On macOS you can use also use the following keyboard shortcuts:

  • CMD-R to jump to a function/method in the current ,editor
  • Alt-CMD-Down to go to declaration.

How do you use subprocess.check_output() in Python?

Since Python 3.5, subprocess.run() is recommended over subprocess.check_output():

>>> subprocess.run(['cat','/tmp/text.txt'], stdout=subprocess.PIPE).stdout
b'First line\nSecond line\n'

Since Python 3.7, instead of the above, you can use capture_output=true parameter to capture stdout and stderr:

>>> subprocess.run(['cat','/tmp/text.txt'], capture_output=True).stdout
b'First line\nSecond line\n'

Also, you may want to use universal_newlines=True or its equivalent since Python 3.7 text=True to work with text instead of binary:

>>> stdout = subprocess.run(['cat', '/tmp/text.txt'], capture_output=True, text=True).stdout
>>> print(stdout)
First line
Second line

See subprocess.run() documentation for more information.

How to concatenate items in a list to a single string?

We can also use Python's reduce function:

from functools import reduce

sentence = ['this','is','a','sentence']
out_str = str(reduce(lambda x,y: x+"-"+y, sentence))
print(out_str)

Array versus List<T>: When to use which?

Populating a list is easier than an array. For arrays, you need to know the exact length of data, but for lists, data size can be any. And, you can convert a list into an array.

List<URLDTO> urls = new List<URLDTO>();

urls.Add(new URLDTO() {
    key = "wiki",
    url = "https://...",
});

urls.Add(new URLDTO()
{
    key = "url",
    url = "http://...",
});

urls.Add(new URLDTO()
{
    key = "dir",
    url = "https://...",
});

// convert a list into an array: URLDTO[]
return urls.ToArray();

Difference between checkout and export in SVN

(To complement Gerald's answer...) One further subtle difference is that, although the command:

svn checkout ...repos_location/my_dir .

puts the files in my_dir into the current directory (with the .svn folder)

in certain versions of the svn, the command:

svn export ...repos_location/my_dir .

will create a folder called my_dir in the current directory and then place the exported files inside it.

What is the difference between JDK and JRE?

jdk is necessary to compile to code and convert java code to byte codes while jre is necessary for executing the byte codes.

How to get the SHA-1 fingerprint certificate in Android Studio for debug mode?

For Windows 10, from the Android Studio terminal:

keytool -exportcert -alias androiddebugkey -keystore %USER_PROFILE%"/.android/debug.keystore -list -v

Note: For the debug.keystore, the password is "android". The debug keystore is typically located at "%USER_PROFILE%"/.android/debug.keystore.

Parsing JSON from URL

A simple alternative solution:

  • Paste the URL into a json to csv converter

  • Open the CSV file in either Excel or Open Office

  • Use the spreadsheet tools to parse the data

100% height minus header?

As mentioned in the comments height:100% relies on the height of the parent container being explicitly defined. One way to achieve what you want is to use absolute/relative positioning, and specifying the left/right/top/bottom properties to "stretch" the content out to fill the available space. I have implemented what I gather you want to achieve in jsfiddle. Try resizing the Result window and you will see the content resizes automatically.

The limitation of this approach in your case is that you have to specify an explicit margin-top on the parent container to offset its contents down to make room for the header content. You can make it dynamic if you throw in javascript though.

getResources().getColor() is deprecated

You need to use ContextCompat.getColor(), which is part of the Support V4 Library (so it will work for all the previous API).

ContextCompat.getColor(context, R.color.my_color)

As specified in the documentation, "Starting in M, the returned color will be styled for the specified Context's theme". SO no need to worry about it.

You can add the Support V4 library by adding the following to the dependencies array inside your app build.gradle:

compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:23.0.1'

Visual Studio C# IntelliSense not automatically displaying

Sometimes i've found Intellisense to be slow. Hit the . and wait for a minute and see if it appears after a delay. If so, then I believe there may be a cache that can be deleted to get it to rescan.

HTML iframe - disable scroll

I solved the same issue with this css:

    pointer-events:none;

HTML5 live streaming

Firstly you need to setup a media streaming server. You can use Wowza, red5 or nginx-rtmp-module. Read their documentation and setup on OS you want. All the engine are support HLS (Http Live Stream protocol that was developed by Apple). You should read documentation for config. Example with nginx-rtmp-module:

rtmp {
    server {
        listen 1935; # Listen on standard RTMP port
        chunk_size 4000;

        application show {
            live on;
            # Turn on HLS
            hls on;
            hls_path /mnt/hls/;
            hls_fragment 3;
            hls_playlist_length 60;
            # disable consuming the stream from nginx as rtmp
            deny play all;
        }
    }
} 

server {
    listen 8080;

    location /hls {
        # Disable cache
        add_header Cache-Control no-cache;

        # CORS setup
        add_header 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' '*' always;
        add_header 'Access-Control-Expose-Headers' 'Content-Length,Content-Range';
        add_header 'Access-Control-Allow-Headers' 'Range';

        # allow CORS preflight requests
        if ($request_method = 'OPTIONS') {
            add_header 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' '*';
            add_header 'Access-Control-Allow-Headers' 'Range';
            add_header 'Access-Control-Max-Age' 1728000;
            add_header 'Content-Type' 'text/plain charset=UTF-8';
            add_header 'Content-Length' 0;
            return 204;
        }

        types {
            application/vnd.apple.mpegurl m3u8;
            video/mp2t ts;
        }

        root /mnt/;
    }
}

After server was setup and configuration successful. you must use some rtmp encoder software (OBS, wirecast ...) for start streaming like youtube or twitchtv.

In client side (browser in your case) you can use Videojs or JWplayer to play video for end user. You can do something like below for Videojs:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
    <title>Live Streaming</title>
    <link href="//vjs.zencdn.net/5.8/video-js.min.css" rel="stylesheet">
    <script src="//vjs.zencdn.net/5.8/video.min.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<video id="player" class="video-js vjs-default-skin" height="360" width="640" controls preload="none">
    <source src="http://localhost:8080/hls/stream.m3u8" type="application/x-mpegURL" />
</video>
<script>
    var player = videojs('#player');
</script>
</body>
</html>

You don't need to add others plugin like flash (because we use HLS not rtmp). This player can work well cross browser with out flash.

How to download dependencies in gradle

It is hard to figure out exactly what you are trying to do from the question. I'll take a guess and say that you want to add an extra compile task in addition to those provided out of the box by the java plugin.

The easiest way to do this is probably to specify a new sourceSet called 'speedTest'. This will generate a configuration called 'speedTest' which you can use to specify your dependencies within a dependencies block. It will also generate a task called compileSpeedTestJava for you.

For an example, take a look at defining new source sets in the Java plugin documentation

In general it seems that you have some incorrect assumptions about how dependency management works with Gradle. I would echo the advice of the others to read the 'Dependency Management' chapters of the user guide again :)

Multiple actions were found that match the request in Web Api

I know it is an old question, but sometimes, when you use service resources like from AngularJS to connect to WebAPI, make sure you are using the correct route, other wise this error happens.

PDO error message?

Old thread, but maybe my answer will help someone. I resolved by executing the query first, then setting an errors variable, then checking if that errors variable array is empty. see simplified example:

$field1 = 'foo';
$field2 = 'bar';

$insert_QUERY = $db->prepare("INSERT INTO table bogus(field1, field2) VALUES (:field1, :field2)");
$insert_QUERY->bindParam(':field1', $field1);
$insert_QUERY->bindParam(':field2', $field2);

$insert_QUERY->execute();

$databaseErrors = $insert_QUERY->errorInfo();

if( !empty($databaseErrors) ){  
    $errorInfo = print_r($databaseErrors, true); # true flag returns val rather than print
    $errorLogMsg = "error info: $errorInfo"; # do what you wish with this var, write to log file etc...         

/* 
 $errorLogMsg will return something like: 
 error info:  
 Array(
  [0] => 42000
  [1] => 1064
  [2] => You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'table bogus(field1, field2) VALUES                                                  ('bar', NULL)' at line 1
 )
*/
} else {
    # no SQL errors.
}

Automatically add all files in a folder to a target using CMake?

So Why not use powershell to create the list of source files for you. Take a look at this script

param (
    [Parameter(Mandatory=$True)]
    [string]$root 
)

if (-not (Test-Path  -Path $root)) {    
throw "Error directory does not exist"
}

#get the full path of the root
$rootDir = get-item -Path $root
$fp=$rootDir.FullName;


$files = Get-ChildItem -Path $root -Recurse -File | 
         Where-Object { ".cpp",".cxx",".cc",".h" -contains $_.Extension} | 
         Foreach {$_.FullName.replace("${fp}\","").replace("\","/")}

$CMakeExpr = "set(SOURCES "

foreach($file in $files){

    $CMakeExpr+= """$file"" " ;
}
$CMakeExpr+=")"
return $CMakeExpr;

Suppose you have a folder with this structure

C:\Workspace\A
--a.cpp
C:\Workspace\B 
--b.cpp

Now save this file as "generateSourceList.ps1" for example, and run the script as

~>./generateSourceList.ps1 -root "C:\Workspace" > out.txt

out.txt file will contain

set(SOURCE "A/a.cpp" "B/b.cpp")

Put current changes in a new Git branch

You can simply check out a new branch, and then commit:

git checkout -b my_new_branch
git commit

Checking out the new branch will not discard your changes.

How to search for a part of a word with ElasticSearch

Searching with leading and trailing wildcards is going to be extremely slow on a large index. If you want to be able to search by word prefix, remove leading wildcard. If you really need to find a substring in a middle of a word, you would be better of using ngram tokenizer.

Set min-width in HTML table's <td>

None of these solutions worked for me. The only workaround I could find was, adding all the min-width sizes together and applying that to the entire table. This obviously only works if you know all the column sizes in advanced, which I do. My tables look something like this:

var columns = [
  {label: 'Column 1', width: 80 /* plus other column config */},
  {label: 'Column 2', minWidth: 110 /* plus other column config */},
  {label: 'Column 3' /* plus other column config */},
];

const minimumTableWidth = columns.reduce((sum, column) => {
  return sum + (column.width || column.minWidth || 0);
}, 0);

tableElement.style.minWidth = minimumTableWidth + 'px';

This is an example and not recommended code. Fit the idea to your requirements. For example, the above is javascript and won't work if the user has JS disabled, etc.

Why is this HTTP request not working on AWS Lambda?

Yes, there's in fact many reasons why you can access AWS Lambda like and HTTP Endpoint.

The architecture of AWS Lambda

It's a microservice. Running inside EC2 with Amazon Linux AMI (Version 3.14.26–24.46.amzn1.x86_64) and runs with Node.js. The memory can be beetwen 128mb and 1gb. When the data source triggers the event, the details are passed to a Lambda function as parameter's.

What happen?

AWS Lambda run's inside a container, and the code is directly uploaded to this container with packages or modules. For example, we NEVER can do SSH for the linux machine running your lambda function. The only things that we can monitor are the logs, with CloudWatchLogs and the exception that came from the runtime.

AWS take care of launch and terminate the containers for us, and just run the code. So, even that you use require('http'), it's not going to work, because the place where this code runs, wasn't made for this.

What is a View in Oracle?

A view is a virtual table, which provides access to a subset of column from one or more table. A view can derive its data from one or more table. An output of query can be stored as a view. View act like small a table but it does not physically take any space. View is good way to present data in particular users from accessing the table directly. A view in oracle is nothing but a stored sql scripts. Views itself contain no data.

ASP.NET / C#: DropDownList SelectedIndexChanged in server control not firing

Is Viewstate turned on?

Edit: Perhaps you should reconsider overriding the rendering function

  protected override void RenderContents(HtmlTextWriter output)
    {
        ddlCountries.RenderControl(output);
        ddlStates.RenderControl(output);
    }

and instead add the dropdownlists to the control and render the control using the default RenderContents.

Edit: See the answer from Dennis which I alluded to in my previous comment:

Controls.Add ( ddlCountries );
Controls.Add ( ddlStates );

Permutations in JavaScript?

Here is a minimal ES6 version. The flatten and without functions can be pulled from Lodash.

const flatten = xs =>
    xs.reduce((cum, next) => [...cum, ...next], []);

const without = (xs, x) =>
    xs.filter(y => y !== x);

const permutations = xs =>
    flatten(xs.map(x =>
        xs.length < 2
            ? [xs]
            : permutations(without(xs, x)).map(perm => [x, ...perm])
    ));

Result:

permutations([1,2,3])
// [[1, 2, 3], [1, 3, 2], [2, 1, 3], [2, 3, 1], [3, 1, 2], [3, 2, 1]]

How to convert SSH keypairs generated using PuTTYgen (Windows) into key-pairs used by ssh-agent and Keychain (Linux)

I think what TCSgrad was trying to ask (a few years ago) was how to make Linux behave like his Windows machine does. That is, there is an agent (pageant) which holds a decrypted copy of a private key so that the passphrase only needs to be put in once. Then, the ssh client, putty, can log in to machines where his public key is listed as "authorized" without a password prompt.

The analog for this is that Linux, acting as an ssh client, has an agent holding a decrypted private key so that when TCSgrad types "ssh host" the ssh command will get his private key and go without being prompted for a password. host would, of course, have to be holding the public key in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys.

The Linux analog to this scenario is accomplished using ssh-agent (the pageant analog) and ssh-add (the analog to adding a private key to pageant).

The method that worked for me was to use: $ ssh-agent $SHELL That $SHELL was the magic trick I needed to make the agent run and stay running. I found that somewhere on the 'net and it ended a few hours of beating my head against the wall.

Now we have the analog of pageant running, an agent with no keys loaded.

Typing $ ssh-add by itself will add (by default) the private keys listed in the default identity files in ~/.ssh .

How to check if my string is equal to null?

WORKING !!!!

 if (myString != null && !myString.isEmpty()) {
        return true;
    }
    else {
        return false;
    }

Updated

For Kotlin we check if the string is null or not by following

return myString.isNullOrEmpty() // Returns `true` if this nullable String is either `null` or empty, false otherwise

return myString.isEmpty() // Returns `true` if this char sequence is empty (contains no characters), false otherwise

How to put a component inside another component in Angular2?

If you remove directives attribute it should work.

@Component({
    selector: 'parent',
    template: `
            <h1>Parent Component</h1>
            <child></child>
        `
    })
    export class ParentComponent{}


@Component({
    selector: 'child',    
    template: `
            <h4>Child Component</h4>
        `
    })
    export class ChildComponent{}

Directives are like components but they are used in attributes. They also have a declarator @Directive. You can read more about directives Structural Directives and Attribute Directives.

There are two other kinds of Angular directives, described extensively elsewhere: (1) components and (2) attribute directives.

A component manages a region of HTML in the manner of a native HTML element. Technically it's a directive with a template.


Also if you are open the glossary you can find that components are also directives.

Directives fall into one of the following categories:

  • Components combine application logic with an HTML template to render application views. Components are usually represented as HTML elements. They are the building blocks of an Angular application.

  • Attribute directives can listen to and modify the behavior of other HTML elements, attributes, properties, and components. They are usually represented as HTML attributes, hence the name.

  • Structural directives are responsible for shaping or reshaping HTML layout, typically by adding, removing, or manipulating elements and their children.


The difference that components have a template. See Angular Architecture overview.

A directive is a class with a @Directive decorator. A component is a directive-with-a-template; a @Component decorator is actually a @Directive decorator extended with template-oriented features.


The @Component metadata doesn't have directives attribute. See Component decorator.

How to place the "table" at the middle of the webpage?

            /*Alternatively you could use: */
           /*
              position: fixed;
               bottom: 50%;
               right: 50%;

Get the value of checked checkbox?

In my project, I usually use this snippets:

            });

And it works well.

How do the major C# DI/IoC frameworks compare?

Well, after looking around the best comparison I've found so far is:

It was a poll taken in March 2010.

One point of interest to me is that people who've used a DI/IoC Framework and liked/disliked it, StructureMap appears to come out on top.

Also from the poll, it seems that Castle.Windsor and StructureMap seem to be most highly favoured.

Interestingly, Unity and Spring.Net seem to be the popular options which are most generally disliked. (I was considering Unity out of laziness (and Microsoft badge/support), but I'll be looking more closely at Castle Windsor and StructureMap now.)

Of course this probably (?) doesn't apply to Unity 2.0 which was released in May 2010.

Hopefully someone else can provide a comparison based on direct experience.

'const int' vs. 'int const' as function parameters in C++ and C

The trick is to read the declaration backwards (right-to-left):

const int a = 1; // read as "a is an integer which is constant"
int const a = 1; // read as "a is a constant integer"

Both are the same thing. Therefore:

a = 2; // Can't do because a is constant

The reading backwards trick especially comes in handy when you're dealing with more complex declarations such as:

const char *s;      // read as "s is a pointer to a char that is constant"
char c;
char *const t = &c; // read as "t is a constant pointer to a char"

*s = 'A'; // Can't do because the char is constant
s++;      // Can do because the pointer isn't constant
*t = 'A'; // Can do because the char isn't constant
t++;      // Can't do because the pointer is constant

How to create Python egg file

I think you should use python wheels for distribution instead of egg now.

Wheels are the new standard of python distribution and are intended to replace eggs. Support is offered in pip >= 1.4 and setuptools >= 0.8.

Programmatically switching between tabs within Swift

If your window rootViewController is UITabbarController(which is in most cases) then you can access tabbar in didFinishLaunchingWithOptions in the AppDelegate file.

func application(application: UIApplication!, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: NSDictionary!) -> Bool {
    // Override point for customization after application launch.

    if let tabBarController = self.window!.rootViewController as? UITabBarController {
        tabBarController.selectedIndex = 1
    }

    return true
}

This will open the tab with the index given (1) in selectedIndex.

If you do this in viewDidLoad of your firstViewController, you need to manage by flag or another way to keep track of the selected tab. The best place to do this in didFinishLaunchingWithOptions of your AppDelegate file or rootViewController custom class viewDidLoad.

             android:bottom="10dp" android:top="10dp" />

</shape>

If you're just looking to create a shape that rounds the corners, removing the padding and the stroke will do. If you remove the solid as well you will, in effect, have created rounded corners on a transparent background.

For the sake of being lazy I have created a shape underneath, which is just a solid white background with rounded corners - enjoy! :)

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">

    <!-- Background color -->
    <solid android:color="@color/white" />

    <!-- The corners of the shape -->
    <corners android:radius="4dp"/>

</shape>

Best way to check if a Data Table has a null value in it

DataTable dt = new DataTable();
foreach (DataRow dr in dt.Rows)
{
    if (dr["Column_Name"] == DBNull.Value)
    {
        //Do something
    }
    else
    {
        //Do something
    }
}

How to read a text file into a list or an array with Python

This question is asking how to read the comma-separated value contents from a file into an iterable list:

0,0,200,0,53,1,0,255,...,0.

The easiest way to do this is with the csv module as follows:

import csv
with open('filename.dat', newline='') as csvfile:
    spamreader = csv.reader(csvfile, delimiter=',')

Now, you can easily iterate over spamreader like this:

for row in spamreader:
    print(', '.join(row))

See documentation for more examples.

How can I upgrade NumPy?

The error you mentioned happens when you have two versions of NumPy on your system. As you mentioned, the version of NumPy you imported is still not upgraded since you tried to upgrade it through pip (it will upgrade the version existing in '/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages' ).

However Python still loads the packages from '/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/Extras/lib/python/numpy' where the pre-installed packages live.

In order to upgrade that version you have to use easy_install. The other way around this problem is using virtualenv and setting up a new environment with all the requirements you need.

How does #include <bits/stdc++.h> work in C++?

#include <bits/stdc++.h> is an implementation file for a precompiled header.

From, software engineering perspective, it is a good idea to minimize the include. If you use it actually includes a lot of files, which your program may not need, thus increase both compile-time and program size unnecessarily. [edit: as pointed out by @Swordfish in the comments that the output program size remains unaffected. But still, it's good practice to include only the libraries you actually need, unless it's some competitive competition]

But in contests, using this file is a good idea, when you want to reduce the time wasted in doing chores; especially when your rank is time-sensitive.

It works in most online judges, programming contest environments, including ACM-ICPC (Sub-Regionals, Regionals, and World Finals) and many online judges.

The disadvantages of it are that it:

  • increases the compilation time.
  • uses an internal non-standard header file of the GNU C++ library, and so will not compile in MSVC, XCode, and many other compilers

How to deserialize xml to object

Your classes should look like this

[XmlRoot("StepList")]
public class StepList
{
    [XmlElement("Step")]
    public List<Step> Steps { get; set; }
}

public class Step
{
    [XmlElement("Name")]
    public string Name { get; set; }
    [XmlElement("Desc")]
    public string Desc { get; set; }
}

Here is my testcode.

string testData = @"<StepList>
                        <Step>
                            <Name>Name1</Name>
                            <Desc>Desc1</Desc>
                        </Step>
                        <Step>
                            <Name>Name2</Name>
                            <Desc>Desc2</Desc>
                        </Step>
                    </StepList>";

XmlSerializer serializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(StepList));
using (TextReader reader = new StringReader(testData))
{
    StepList result = (StepList) serializer.Deserialize(reader);
}

If you want to read a text file you should load the file into a FileStream and deserialize this.

using (FileStream fileStream = new FileStream("<PathToYourFile>", FileMode.Open)) 
{
    StepList result = (StepList) serializer.Deserialize(fileStream);
}

Split string into list in jinja?

You can’t run arbitrary Python code in jinja; it doesn’t work like JSP in that regard (it just looks similar). All the things in jinja are custom syntax.

For your purpose, it would make most sense to define a custom filter, so you could for example do the following:

The grass is {{ variable1 | splitpart(0, ',') }} and the boat is {{  splitpart(1, ',') }}
Or just:
The grass is {{ variable1 | splitpart(0) }} and the boat is {{  splitpart(1) }}

The filter function could then look like this:

def splitpart (value, index, char = ','):
    return value.split(char)[index]

An alternative, which might make even more sense, would be to split it in the controller and pass the splitted list to the view.

How to add image to canvas

You have to use .onload

let canvas = document.getElementById("myCanvas");
let ctx = canvas.getContext("2d"); 

const drawImage = (url) => {
    const image = new Image();
    image.src = url;
    image.onload = () => {
       ctx.drawImage(image, 0, 0)
    }
}

Here's Why

If you are loading the image first after the canvas has already been created then the canvas won't be able to pass all the image data to draw the image. So you need to first load all the data that came with the image and then you can use drawImage()

What’s the difference between Response.Write() andResponse.Output.Write()?

See this:

The difference between Response.Write() and Response.Output.Write() in ASP.NET. The short answer is that the latter gives you String.Format-style output and the former doesn't. The long answer follows.

In ASP.NET the Response object is of type HttpResponse and when you say Response.Write you're really saying (basically) HttpContext.Current.Response.Write and calling one of the many overloaded Write methods of HttpResponse.

Response.Write then calls .Write() on it's internal TextWriter object:

public void Write(object obj){ this._writer.Write(obj);} 

HttpResponse also has a Property called Output that is of type, yes, TextWriter, so:

public TextWriter get_Output(){ return this._writer; } 

Which means you can do the Response whatever a TextWriter will let you. Now, TextWriters support a Write() method aka String.Format, so you can do this:

Response.Output.Write("Scott is {0} at {1:d}", "cool",DateTime.Now);

But internally, of course, this is happening:

public virtual void Write(string format, params object[] arg)
{ 
this.Write(string.Format(format, arg)); 
}

MySQLi prepared statements error reporting

Completeness

You need to check both $mysqli and $statement. If they are false, you need to output $mysqli->error or $statement->error respectively.

Efficiency

For simple scripts that may terminate, I use simple one-liners that trigger a PHP error with the message. For a more complex application, an error warning system should be activated instead, for example by throwing an exception.

Usage example 1: Simple script

# This is in a simple command line script
$mysqli = new mysqli('localhost', 'buzUser', 'buzPassword');
$q = "UPDATE foo SET bar=1";
($statement = $mysqli->prepare($q)) or trigger_error($mysqli->error, E_USER_ERROR);
$statement->execute() or trigger_error($statement->error, E_USER_ERROR);

Usage example 2: Application

# This is part of an application
class FuzDatabaseException extends Exception {
}

class Foo {
  public $mysqli;
  public function __construct(mysqli $mysqli) {
    $this->mysqli = $mysqli;
  }
  public function updateBar() {
    $q = "UPDATE foo SET bar=1";
    $statement = $this->mysqli->prepare($q);
    if (!$statement) {
      throw new FuzDatabaseException($mysqli->error);
    }

    if (!$statement->execute()) {
      throw new FuzDatabaseException($statement->error);
    }
  }
}

$foo = new Foo(new mysqli('localhost','buzUser','buzPassword'));
try {
  $foo->updateBar();
} catch (FuzDatabaseException $e)
  $msg = $e->getMessage();
  // Now send warning emails, write log
}

How can I change NULL to 0 when getting a single value from a SQL function?

Most database servers have a COALESCE function, which will return the first argument that is non-null, so the following should do what you want:

SELECT COALESCE(SUM(Price),0) AS TotalPrice
FROM Inventory
WHERE (DateAdded BETWEEN @StartDate AND @EndDate)

Since there seems to be a lot of discussion about

COALESCE/ISNULL will still return NULL if no rows match, try this query you can copy-and-paste into SQL Server directly as-is:

SELECT coalesce(SUM(column_id),0) AS TotalPrice 
FROM sys.columns
WHERE (object_id BETWEEN -1 AND -2)

Note that the where clause excludes all the rows from sys.columns from consideration, but the 'sum' operator still results in a single row being returned that is null, which coalesce fixes to be a single row with a 0.

What is the difference between BIT and TINYINT in MySQL?

From Overview of Numeric Types;

BIT[(M)]

A bit-field type. M indicates the number of bits per value, from 1 to 64. The default is 1 if M is omitted.

This data type was added in MySQL 5.0.3 for MyISAM, and extended in 5.0.5 to MEMORY, InnoDB, BDB, and NDBCLUSTER. Before 5.0.3, BIT is a synonym for TINYINT(1).

TINYINT[(M)] [UNSIGNED] [ZEROFILL]

A very small integer. The signed range is -128 to 127. The unsigned range is 0 to 255.

Additionally consider this;

BOOL, BOOLEAN

These types are synonyms for TINYINT(1). A value of zero is considered false. Non-zero values are considered true.

How to call a method function from another class?

For calling the method of one class within the second class, you have to first create the object of that class which method you want to call than with the object reference you can call the method.

class A {
   public void fun(){
     //do something
   }
}

class B {
   public static void main(String args[]){
     A obj = new A();
     obj.fun();
   }
}

But in your case you have the static method in Date and TemperatureRange class. You can call your static method by using the class name directly like below code or by creating the object of that class like above code but static method ,mostly we use for creating the utility classes, so best way to call the method by using class name. Like in your case -

public static void main (String[] args){
  String dateVal = Date.date("01","11,"12"); // calling the date function by passing some parameter.

  String tempRangeVal = TemperatureRange.TempRange("80","20"); 
}

How to check whether an object has certain method/property?

It is an old question, but I just ran into it. Type.GetMethod(string name) will throw an AmbiguousMatchException if there is more than one method with that name, so we better handle that case

public static bool HasMethod(this object objectToCheck, string methodName)
{
    try
    {
        var type = objectToCheck.GetType();
        return type.GetMethod(methodName) != null;
    }
    catch(AmbiguousMatchException)
    {
        // ambiguous means there is more than one result,
        // which means: a method with that name does exist
        return true;
    }
} 

"Uncaught TypeError: Illegal invocation" in Chrome

You can also use:

var obj = {
    alert: alert.bind(window)
};
obj.alert('I´m an alert!!');

"Instantiating" a List in Java?

List is the interface, not a class so it can't be instantiated. ArrayList is most likely what you're after:

ArrayList<Integer> list = new ArrayList<Integer>();

An interface in Java essentially defines a blueprint for the class - a class implementing an interface has to provide implementations of the methods the list defines. But the actual implementation is completely up to the implementing class, ArrayList in this case.

The JDK also provides LinkedList - an alternative implementation that again conforms to the list interface. It works very differently to the ArrayList underneath and as such it tends to be more efficient at adding / removing items half way through the list, but for the vast majority of use cases it's less efficient. And of course if you wanted to define your own implementation it's perfectly possible!

In short, you can't create a list because it's an interface containing no concrete code - that's the job of the classes that implement that list, of which ArrayList is the most used by far (and with good reason!)

It's also worth noting that in C# a List is a class, not an interface - that's IList. The same principle applies though, just with different names.
