Programs & Examples On #Data annotations

Data Annotations are used by frameworks such as ASP.NET MVC to enable a model-based validation approach and enforce consistent validation throughout the application, both on client and server side. They were first introduced in ASP.NET MVC 2. In addition to ASP.NET MVC, they can also be used with other technologies such as Entity Framework, either through manual placement of attributes on properties, or automatic generation with T4 templates.

Int or Number DataType for DataAnnotation validation attribute

For any number validation you have to use different different range validation as per your requirements :

For Integer

[Range(0, int.MaxValue, ErrorMessage = "Please enter valid integer Number")]

for float

[Range(0, float.MaxValue, ErrorMessage = "Please enter valid float Number")]

for double

[Range(0, double.MaxValue, ErrorMessage = "Please enter valid doubleNumber")]

How to add "required" attribute to mvc razor viewmodel text input editor

I needed the "required" HTML5 atribute, so I did something like this:

<%: Html.TextBoxFor(model => model.Name, new { @required = true })%>

How to specify a min but no max decimal using the range data annotation attribute?

You can use:

[Min(0)]

This will impose a required minimum value of 0 (zero), and no maximum value.

You need DataAnnotationsExtensions to use this.

Assign format of DateTime with data annotations?

Apply DataAnnotation like:

[DisplayFormat(DataFormatString = "{0:MMM dd, yyyy}")]

Entity Framework code first unique column

Solution for EF4.3

Unique UserName

Add data annotation over column as:

 [Index(IsUnique = true)]
 [MaxLength(255)] // for code-first implementations
 public string UserName{get;set;}

Unique ID , I have added decoration [Key] over my column and done. Same solution as described here: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-gb/data/jj591583.aspx

IE:

[Key]
public int UserId{get;set;}

Alternative answers

using data annotation

[Key, DatabaseGenerated(DatabaseGeneratedOption.Identity)]
[Column("UserId")]

using mapping

  mb.Entity<User>()
            .HasKey(i => i.UserId);
        mb.User<User>()
          .Property(i => i.UserId)
          .HasDatabaseGeneratedOption(DatabaseGeneratedOption.Identity)
          .HasColumnName("UserId");

Disable Required validation attribute under certain circumstances

As of MVC 5 this can be easily achieved by adding this in your global.asax.

DataAnnotationsModelValidatorProvider.AddImplicitRequiredAttributeForValueTypes = false;

Why can't I reference System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations?

I searched for help on this topic as I came across the same issue.

Although the following may not be the Answer to the question asked originally in 2012 it may be a solution for those who come across this thread.

A way to solve this is to check where your project is within the solution. It turns out for my instance (I was trying to install a NuGet package but it wouldn't and the listed error came up) that my project file was not included within the solution directory although showing in the solution explorer. I deleted the project from the directory out of scope and re-added the project but this time within the correct location.

DataAnnotations validation (Regular Expression) in asp.net mvc 4 - razor view

Try this one in model class

    [Required(ErrorMessage = "Enter full name.")]
    [RegularExpression("([A-Za-z])+( [A-Za-z]+)", ErrorMessage = "Enter valid full name.")]

    public string FullName { get; set; }

How do I specify the columns and rows of a multiline Editor-For in ASP.MVC?

One option seems to be using CSS to style the textarea

.multi-line { height:5em; width:5em; }

See this entry on SO or this one.

Amurra's accepted answer seems to imply this class is added automatically when using EditorFor but you'd have to verify this.

EDIT: Confirmed, it does. So yes, if you want to use EditorFor, using this CSS style does what you're looking for.

<textarea class="text-box multi-line" id="StoreSearchCriteria_Location" name="StoreSearchCriteria.Location">

ASP.NET MVC: Custom Validation by DataAnnotation

You could write a custom validation attribute:

public class CombinedMinLengthAttribute: ValidationAttribute
{
    public CombinedMinLengthAttribute(int minLength, params string[] propertyNames)
    {
        this.PropertyNames = propertyNames;
        this.MinLength = minLength;
    }

    public string[] PropertyNames { get; private set; }
    public int MinLength { get; private set; }

    protected override ValidationResult IsValid(object value, ValidationContext validationContext)
    {
        var properties = this.PropertyNames.Select(validationContext.ObjectType.GetProperty);
        var values = properties.Select(p => p.GetValue(validationContext.ObjectInstance, null)).OfType<string>();
        var totalLength = values.Sum(x => x.Length) + Convert.ToString(value).Length;
        if (totalLength < this.MinLength)
        {
            return new ValidationResult(this.FormatErrorMessage(validationContext.DisplayName));
        }
        return null;
    }
}

and then you might have a view model and decorate one of its properties with it:

public class MyViewModel
{
    [CombinedMinLength(20, "Bar", "Baz", ErrorMessage = "The combined minimum length of the Foo, Bar and Baz properties should be longer than 20")]
    public string Foo { get; set; }
    public string Bar { get; set; }
    public string Baz { get; set; }
}

displayname attribute vs display attribute

They both give you the same results but the key difference I see is that you cannot specify a ResourceType in DisplayName attribute. For an example in MVC 2, you had to subclass the DisplayName attribute to provide resource via localization. Display attribute (new in MVC3 and .NET4) supports ResourceType overload as an "out of the box" property.

Accessing nested JavaScript objects and arrays by string path

Extension of Mohamad Hamouday' Answer will fill in missing keys

function Object_Manager(obj, Path, value, Action, strict) 
{
    try
    {
        if(Array.isArray(Path) == false)
        {
            Path = [Path];
        }

        let level = 0;
        var Return_Value;
        Path.reduce((a, b)=>{
            console.log(level,':',a, '|||',b)
            if (!strict){
              if (!(b in a)) a[b] = {}
            }


            level++;
            if (level === Path.length)
            {
                if(Action === 'Set')
                {
                    a[b] = value;
                    return value;
                }
                else if(Action === 'Get')
                {
                    Return_Value = a[b];
                }
                else if(Action === 'Unset')
                {
                    delete a[b];
                }
            } 
            else 
            {
                return a[b];
            }
        }, obj);
        return Return_Value;
    }

    catch(err)
    {
        console.error(err);
        return obj;
    }
}

Example


obja = {
  "a": {
    "b":"nom"
  }
}

// Set
path = "c.b" // Path does not exist
Object_Manager(obja,path.split('.'), 'test_new_val', 'Set', false);

// Expected Output: Object { a: Object { b: "nom" }, c: Object { b: "test_new_value" } }

How does it work - requestLocationUpdates() + LocationRequest/Listener

I use this one:

LocationManager.requestLocationUpdates(String provider, long minTime, float minDistance, LocationListener listener)

For example, using a 1s interval:

locationManager.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER,1000,0,this);

the time is in milliseconds, the distance is in meters.

This automatically calls:

public void onLocationChanged(Location location) {
    //Code here, location.getAccuracy(), location.getLongitude() etc...
}

I also had these included in the script but didnt actually use them:

public void onStatusChanged(String provider, int status, Bundle extras) {}
public void onProviderEnabled(String provider) {}
public void onProviderDisabled(String provider) {}

In short:

public class GPSClass implements LocationListener {

    public void onLocationChanged(Location location) {
        // Called when a new location is found by the network location provider.
        Log.i("Message: ","Location changed, " + location.getAccuracy() + " , " + location.getLatitude()+ "," + location.getLongitude());
    }

    public void onStatusChanged(String provider, int status, Bundle extras) {}
    public void onProviderEnabled(String provider) {}
    public void onProviderDisabled(String provider) {}

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        locationManager = (LocationManager)getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);
        locationManager.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER,1000,0,this);
    }
}

Open-Source Examples of well-designed Android Applications?

I recommend the Last.fm for Android application: http://github.com/c99koder/lastfm-android

UPDATE: I'm not sure this is a good example anymore, it hasn't been updated in 2-3 years.

Can attributes be added dynamically in C#?

Attributes are static metadata. Assemblies, modules, types, members, parameters, and return values aren't first-class objects in C# (e.g., the System.Type class is merely a reflected representation of a type). You can get an instance of an attribute for a type and change the properties if they're writable but that won't affect the attribute as it is applied to the type.

How to return a result from a VBA function

Just setting the return value to the function name is still not exactly the same as the Java (or other) return statement, because in java, return exits the function, like this:

public int test(int x) {
    if (x == 1) {
        return 1; // exits immediately
    }

    // still here? return 0 as default.
    return 0;
}

In VB, the exact equivalent takes two lines if you are not setting the return value at the end of your function. So, in VB the exact corollary would look like this:

Public Function test(ByVal x As Integer) As Integer
    If x = 1 Then
        test = 1 ' does not exit immediately. You must manually terminate...
        Exit Function ' to exit
    End If

    ' Still here? return 0 as default.
    test = 0
    ' no need for an Exit Function because we're about to exit anyway.
End Function 

Since this is the case, it's also nice to know that you can use the return variable like any other variable in the method. Like this:

Public Function test(ByVal x As Integer) As Integer

    test = x ' <-- set the return value

    If test <> 1 Then ' Test the currently set return value
        test = 0 ' Reset the return value to a *new* value
    End If

End Function 

Or, the extreme example of how the return variable works (but not necessarily a good example of how you should actually code)—the one that will keep you up at night:

Public Function test(ByVal x As Integer) As Integer

    test = x ' <-- set the return value

    If test > 0 Then

        ' RECURSIVE CALL...WITH THE RETURN VALUE AS AN ARGUMENT,
        ' AND THE RESULT RESETTING THE RETURN VALUE.
        test = test(test - 1)

    End If

End Function

Find CRLF in Notepad++

If you need to do a complex regexp replacement including \r\n, you can workaround the limitation by a three-step approach:

  1. Replace all \r\n by a tag, let's say #GO# ? Check 'Extended', replace \r\n by #GO#
  2. Perform your regexp, example removing multiline ICON="*" from an html bookmarks ? Check regexp, replace ICON=.[^"]+.> by >
  3. Put back \r\n ? Check 'Extended', replace #GO# by \r\n

Calculating Page Table Size

My explanation uses elementary building blocks that helped me to understand. Note I am leveraging @Deepak Goyal's answer above since he provided clarity:

We were given a logical 32-bit address space (i.e. We have a 32 bit computer)

Consider a system with a 32-bit logical address space

We were also told that

each page size is 4 KB

  • 1 KB (kilobyte) = 1 x 1024 bytes = 2^10 bytes
  • 4 x 1024 bytes = 2^2 x 2^10 bytes => 4 KB (i.e. 2^12 bytes)
  • The size of each page is thus 4 KB (Kilobytes NOT kilobits).

As Depaak said, we calculate the number of pages in the page table with this formula:

Num_Pages_in_PgTable = Total_Possible_Logical_Address_Entries / page size 
Num_Pages_in_PgTable =         2^32                           /    2^12
Num_Pages_in_PgTable = 2^20 (i.e. 1 million) 

The authors go on to give the case where each entry in the page table takes 4 bytes. That means that the total size of the page table in physical memory will be 4MB:

Memory_Required_Per_Page = Size_of_Page_Entry_in_bytes x Num_Pages_in_PgTable
Memory_Required_Per_Page =           4                 x     2^20
Memory_Required_Per_Page =     4 MB (Megabytes)

So yes, each process would require at least 4MB of memory to run, in increments of 4MB.

Example

Now if a professor wanted to make the question a bit more challenging than the explanation from the book, they might ask about a 64-bit computer. Let's say they want memory in bits. To solve the question, we'd follow the same process, only being sure to convert MB to Mbits.

Let's step through this example.

Givens:

  • Logical address space: 64-bit
  • Page Size: 4KB
  • Entry_Size_Per_Page: 4 bytes

Recall: A 64-bit entry can point to one of 2^64 physical page frames - Since Page size is 4 KB, then we still have 2^12 byte page sizes

  • 1 KB (kilobyte) = 1 x 1024 bytes = 2^10 bytes
  • Size of each page = 4 x 1024 bytes = 2^2 x 2^10 bytes = 2^12 bytes

How Many pages In Page Table?

`Num_Pages_in_PgTable = Total_Possible_Logical_Address_Entries / page size 
Num_Pages_in_PgTable =         2^64                            /    2^12
Num_Pages_in_PgTable =         2^52 
Num_Pages_in_PgTable =      2^2 x 2^50 
Num_Pages_in_PgTable =       4  x 2^50 `  

How Much Memory in BITS Per Page?

Memory_Required_Per_Page = Size_of_Page_Entry_in_bytes x Num_Pages_in_PgTable 
Memory_Required_Per_Page =   4 bytes x 8 bits/byte    x     2^52
Memory_Required_Per_Page =     32 bits                x   2^2 x 2^50
Memory_Required_Per_Page =     32 bits                x    4  x 2^50
Memory_Required_Per_Page =     128 Petabits

Getting XML Node text value with Java DOM

I use a very old java. Jdk 1.4.08 and I had the same issue. The Node class for me did not had the getTextContent() method. I had to use Node.getFirstChild().getNodeValue() instead of Node.getNodeValue() to get the value of the node. This fixed for me.

Difference between WebStorm and PHPStorm

There is actually a comparison of the two in the official WebStorm FAQ. However, the version history of that page shows it was last updated December 13, so I'm not sure if it's maintained.

This is an extract from the FAQs for reference:

What is WebStorm & PhpStorm?

WebStorm & PhpStorm are IDEs (Integrated Development Environment) built on top of JetBrains IntelliJ platform and narrowed for web development.

Which IDE do I need?

PhpStorm is designed to cover all needs of PHP developer including full JavaScript, CSS and HTML support. WebStorm is for hardcore JavaScript developers. It includes features PHP developer normally doesn’t need like Node.JS or JSUnit. However corresponding plugins can be installed into PhpStorm for free.

How often new vesions (sic) are going to be released?

Preliminarily, WebStorm and PhpStorm major updates will be available twice in a year. Minor (bugfix) updates are issued periodically as required.

snip

IntelliJ IDEA vs WebStorm features

IntelliJ IDEA remains JetBrains' flagship product and IntelliJ IDEA provides full JavaScript support along with all other features of WebStorm via bundled or downloadable plugins. The only thing missing is the simplified project setup.

Trying to use Spring Boot REST to Read JSON String from POST

The issue appears with parsing the JSON from request body, tipical for an invalid JSON. If you're using curl on windows, try escaping the json like -d "{"name":"value"}" or even -d "{"""name""":"value"""}"

On the other hand you can ommit the content-type header in which case whetewer is sent will be converted to your String argument

When to favor ng-if vs. ng-show/ng-hide?

One important note:

ngIf (unlike ngShow) usually creates child scopes that may produce unexpected results.

I had an issue related to this and I've spent MUCH time to figure out what was going on.

(My directive was writing its model values to the wrong scope.)

So, to save your hair just use ngShow unless you run too slow.

The performance difference is barely noticable anyway and I am not sure yet on who's favour is it without a test...

Print "hello world" every X seconds

I figure it out with a timer, hope it helps. I have used a timer from java.util.Timer and TimerTask from the same package. See below:

TimerTask task = new TimerTask() {

    @Override
    public void run() {
        System.out.println("Hello World");
    }
};

Timer timer = new Timer();
timer.schedule(task, new Date(), 3000);

Printing Batch file results to a text file

Step 1: Simply put all the required code in a "MAIN.BAT" file.

Step 2: Create another bat file, say MainCaller.bat, and just copy/paste these 3 lines of code:

REM THE MAIN FILE WILL BE CALLED FROM HERE..........
CD "File_Path_Where_Main.bat_is_located"
MAIN.BAT > log.txt

Step 3: Just double click "MainCaller.bat".

All the output will be logged into the text file named "log".

jQuery Clone table row

Is very simple to clone the last row with jquery pressing a button:

Your Table HTML:

<table id="tableExample">
    <thead>
        <tr>
            <th>ID</th>
            <th>Header 1</th>
        </tr>
    </thead>
    <tbody>
        <tr>
            <td>1</td>
            <td>Line 1</td>
        </tr>
    </tbody>
    <tfoot>
        <tr>
            <td colspan="2"><button type="button" id="addRowButton">Add row</button></td>
        </tr>
    </tfoot>
</table>

JS:

$(document).on('click', '#addRowButton', function() {
    var table = $('#tableExample'),
        lastRow = table.find('tbody tr:last'),
        rowClone = lastRow.clone();

    table.find('tbody').append(rowClone);
});

How to convert list of key-value tuples into dictionary?

Here is a way to handle duplicate tuple "keys":

# An example
l = [('A', 1), ('B', 2), ('C', 3), ('A', 5), ('D', 0), ('D', 9)]

# A solution
d = dict()
[d [t [0]].append(t [1]) if t [0] in list(d.keys()) 
 else d.update({t [0]: [t [1]]}) for t in l]
d

OUTPUT: {'A': [1, 5], 'B': [2], 'C': [3], 'D': [0, 9]}

What's the idiomatic syntax for prepending to a short python list?

The s.insert(0, x) form is the most common.

Whenever you see it though, it may be time to consider using a collections.deque instead of a list.

Where are the python modules stored?

1) Using the help function

Get into the python prompt and type the following command:

>>>help("modules")

This will list all the modules installed in the system. You don't need to install any additional packages to list them, but you need to manually search or filter the required module from the list.

2) Using pip freeze

sudo apt-get install python-pip
pip freeze

Even though you need to install additional packages to use this, this method allows you to easily search or filter the result with grep command. e.g. pip freeze | grep feed.

You can use whichever method is convenient for you.

How to change Angular CLI favicon

Following steps worked for me.

  1. Remove default "favicon.ico" file with a new one with different name i.e. "_favicon.ico" in my case.

    Note :: Don't keep the default name, as it's get's cached in your browser and difficult to overwrite with new icon.

  2. Update index.html with new link tag i.e.

     <link rel="icon" type="image/x-icon" href="_favicon.ico" /> 
    
  3. Update .angular-cli.json with new icon name i.e. "_favicon.ico".

  4. Build & launch your app, and do a hard refresh Ctrl+F5.

How do I prevent a parent's onclick event from firing when a child anchor is clicked?

If you do not intend to interact with the inner element/s in any case, then a CSS solution might be useful for you.

Just set the inner element/s to pointer-events: none

in your case:

.clickable > a {
    pointer-events: none;
}

or to target all inner elements generally:

.clickable * {
    pointer-events: none;
}

This easy hack saved me a lot of time while developing with ReactJS

Database cluster and load balancing

From SQL Server point of view:

Clustering will give you an active - passive configuration. Meaning in a 2 node cluster, one of them will be the active (serving) and the other one will be passive (waiting to take over when the active node fails). It's a high availability from hardware point of view.

You can have an active-active cluster, but it will require multiple instances of SQL Server running on each node. (i.e. Instance 1 on Node A failing over to Instance 2 on Node B, and instance 1 on Node B failing over to instance 2 on Node A).

Load balancing (at least from SQL Server point of view) does not exists (at least in the same sense of web server load balancing). You can't balance load that way. However, you can split your application to run on some database on server 1 and also run on some database on server 2, etc. This is the primary mean of "load balancing" in SQL world.

Get property value from string using reflection

What about using the CallByName of the Microsoft.VisualBasic namespace (Microsoft.VisualBasic.dll)? It uses reflection to get properties, fields, and methods of normal objects, COM objects, and even dynamic objects.

and then

Versioned.CallByName(this, "method/function/prop name", CallType.Get).ToString();

Calling a Function defined inside another function in Javascript

SQL Server Group By Month

Another approach, that doesn't involve adding columns to the result, is to simply zero-out the day component of the date, so 2016-07-13 and 2016-07-16 would both be 2016-07-01 - thus making them equal by month.

If you have a date (not a datetime) value, then you can zero it directly:

SELECT
    DATEADD( day, 1 - DATEPART( day, [Date] ), [Date] ),
    COUNT(*)
FROM
    [Table]
GROUP BY
    DATEADD( day, 1 - DATEPART( day, [Date] ), [Date] )

If you have datetime values, you'll need to use CONVERT to remove the time-of-day portion:

SELECT
    DATEADD( day, 1 - DATEPART( day, [Date] ),  CONVERT( date, [Date] ) ),
    COUNT(*)
FROM
    [Table]
GROUP BY
    DATEADD( day, 1 - DATEPART( day, [Date] ),  CONVERT( date, [Date] ) )

How to choose multiple files using File Upload Control?

You can try below code:

    Try
        Dim j As Integer = 0
        Dim hfc As HttpFileCollection = Request.Files
        Dim PathName As String
        For i As Integer = 0 To hfc.Count - 1
            Dim hpf As HttpPostedFile = hfc(i)

            If hpf.ContentLength > 0 Then
                hpf.SaveAs(Server.MapPath("~/E:\") & System.IO.Path.GetFileName(hpf.FileName))
                PathName = Server.MapPath(hpf.FileName)

                If j < hfc.Count Then
                    Dim strConnString As String = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("conString").ConnectionString
                    Dim sqlquery As String
                    sqlquery = "Insert_proc"
                    Dim con As New SqlConnection(strConnString)
                    Dim cmd As New SqlCommand(sqlquery, con)

                    cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure

                    cmd.Parameters.Add("@FilePath", SqlDbType.VarChar).Value = PathName
                    j = j + 1

                    Try
                        con.Open()
                        cmd.ExecuteNonQuery()


                    Catch ex As Exception
                        Throw ex
                    Finally

                        con.Dispose()

                    End Try
                    If j = hfc.Count Then

Command prompt won't change directory to another drive

I suppose you are using Windows system.

Once you open CMD you would be shown with the default location i.e. like this

C:\Users\Admin - In your case its admin as mentioned else it will be the username of your computer

Consider if you want to move to E directory then simply type E:

This will move the user to E: Directory. Now change to what ever folder you want to point to in E: Drive

Ex: If you want to move to Software directory of E folder then first type

E:

then type the location of the folder

cd E:\Software

Converting Go struct to JSON

Related issue:

I was having trouble converting struct to JSON, sending it as response from Golang, then, later catch the same in JavaScript via Ajax.

Wasted a lot of time, so posting solution here.

In Go:

// web server

type Foo struct {
    Number int    `json:"number"`
    Title  string `json:"title"`
}

foo_marshalled, err := json.Marshal(Foo{Number: 1, Title: "test"})
fmt.Fprint(w, string(foo_marshalled)) // write response to ResponseWriter (w)

In JavaScript:

// web call & receive in "data", thru Ajax/ other

var Foo = JSON.parse(data);
console.log("number: " + Foo.number);
console.log("title: " + Foo.title);

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space

Android dependency has different version for the compile and runtime

See in your library projects make the compileSdkVersion and targetSdkVersion version to same level as your application is

android {
    compileSdkVersion 28

    defaultConfig {
        consumerProguardFiles 'proguard-rules.txt'
        minSdkVersion 14
        targetSdkVersion 28
    }
}

also make all dependencies to same level

LINQ - Full Outer Join

As you've found, Linq doesn't have an "outer join" construct. The closest you can get is a left outer join using the query you stated. To this, you can add any elements of the lastname list that aren't represented in the join:

outerJoin = outerJoin.Concat(lastNames.Select(l=>new
                            {
                                id = l.ID,
                                firstname = String.Empty,
                                surname = l.Name
                            }).Where(l=>!outerJoin.Any(o=>o.id == l.id)));

Android Layout Right Align

You can do all that by using just one RelativeLayout (which, btw, don't need android:orientation parameter). So, instead of having a LinearLayout, containing a bunch of stuff, you can do something like:

<RelativeLayout>
    <ImageButton
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:id="@+id/the_first_one"
        android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"/>
    <ImageButton
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_toRightOf="@+id/the_first_one"/>
    <ImageButton
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_alignParentRight="true"/>
</RelativeLayout>

As you noticed, there are some XML parameters missing. I was just showing the basic parameters you had to put. You can complete the rest.

How do you specifically order ggplot2 x axis instead of alphabetical order?

The accepted answer offers a solution which requires changing of the underlying data frame. This is not necessary. One can also simply factorise within the aes() call directly or create a vector for that instead.

This is certainly not much different than user Drew Steen's answer, but with the important difference of not changing the original data frame.

level_order <- c('virginica', 'versicolor', 'setosa') #this vector might be useful for other plots/analyses

ggplot(iris, aes(x = factor(Species, level = level_order), y = Petal.Width)) + geom_col()

or

level_order <- factor(iris$Species, level = c('virginica', 'versicolor', 'setosa'))

ggplot(iris, aes(x = level_order, y = Petal.Width)) + geom_col()

or
directly in the aes() call without a pre-created vector:

ggplot(iris, aes(x = factor(Species, level = c('virginica', 'versicolor', 'setosa')), y = Petal.Width)) + geom_col()

that's for the first version

Size-limited queue that holds last N elements in Java

Apache commons collections 4 has a CircularFifoQueue<> which is what you are looking for. Quoting the javadoc:

CircularFifoQueue is a first-in first-out queue with a fixed size that replaces its oldest element if full.

    import java.util.Queue;
    import org.apache.commons.collections4.queue.CircularFifoQueue;

    Queue<Integer> fifo = new CircularFifoQueue<Integer>(2);
    fifo.add(1);
    fifo.add(2);
    fifo.add(3);
    System.out.println(fifo);

    // Observe the result: 
    // [2, 3]

If you are using an older version of the Apache commons collections (3.x), you can use the CircularFifoBuffer which is basically the same thing without generics.

Update: updated answer following release of commons collections version 4 that supports generics.

vertical-align: middle doesn't work

Vertical align doesn't quite work the way you want it to. See: http://phrogz.net/css/vertical-align/index.html

This isn't pretty, but it WILL do what you want: Vertical align behaves as expected only when used in a table cell.

http://jsfiddle.net/e8ESb/6/

There are other alternatives: You can declare things as tables or table cells within CSS to make them behave as desired, for example. Margins and positioning can sometimes be played with to get the same effect. None of the solutions are terrible pretty, though.

How can I set the maximum length of 6 and minimum length of 6 in a textbox?

You can't set a minimum length on a text field. Otherwise, users wouldn't be able to type in the first five characters.

Your best bet is to validate the input when the form is submitted to ensure that the length is six.

maxlength is not a validation attribute. It is designed to prevent the user from physically typing in more than six characters. The corresponding minlengh is not in scope of the HTML specification, because its implementation would render the textbox unusable.

How to manually trigger validation with jQuery validate?

As written in the documentation, the way to trigger form validation programmatically is to invoke validator.form()

What does "O(1) access time" mean?

O(1) means Random Access. In any Random Access Memory, the time taken to access any element at any location is the same. Here time can be any integer, but the only thing to remember is time taken to retrieve the element at (n-1)th or nth location will be same(ie constant).

Whereas O(n) is dependent on the size of n.

what is the difference between XSD and WSDL

XSD is schema for WSDL file. XSD contain datatypes for WSDL. Element declared in XSD is valid to use in WSDL file. We can Check WSDL against XSD to check out web service WSDL is valid or not.

Meaning of delta or epsilon argument of assertEquals for double values

Note that if you're not doing math, there's nothing wrong with asserting exact floating point values. For instance:

public interface Foo {
    double getDefaultValue();
}

public class FooImpl implements Foo {
    public double getDefaultValue() { return Double.MIN_VALUE; }
}

In this case, you want to make sure it's really MIN_VALUE, not zero or -MIN_VALUE or MIN_NORMAL or some other very small value. You can say

double defaultValue = new FooImpl().getDefaultValue();
assertEquals(Double.MIN_VALUE, defaultValue);

but this will get you a deprecation warning. To avoid that, you can call assertEquals(Object, Object) instead:

// really you just need one cast because of autoboxing, but let's be clear
assertEquals((Object)Double.MIN_VALUE, (Object)defaultValue);

And, if you really want to look clever:

assertEquals(
    Double.doubleToLongBits(Double.MIN_VALUE), 
    Double.doubleToLongBits(defaultValue)
);

Or you can just use Hamcrest fluent-style assertions:

// equivalent to assertEquals((Object)Double.MIN_VALUE, (Object)defaultValue);
assertThat(defaultValue, is(Double.MIN_VALUE));

If the value you're checking does come from doing some math, though, use the epsilon.

Can the "IN" operator use LIKE-wildcards (%) in Oracle?

The closest legal equivalent to illegal syntax mentioned in question is:

select * from myTable m
where not exists (
  select 1
  from table(sys.ku$_vcnt('Done', 'Finished except', 'In Progress')) patterns
  where m.status like patterns.column_value || '%'
)

Both mine and @Sethionic's answer make possible to list patterns dynamically (just by choosing other source than auxiliar sys.whatever table).

Note, if we had to search pattern inside string (rather than from the beginning) and database contained for example status = 'Done In Progress', then my solution (modified to like '%' || patterns.column_value || '%') would still generate one row for given record, whileas the @Sethionic's solution (modified to another auxiliar join before a) would produce multiple rows for each pattern occurence. Not judging which is better, just be aware of differences and choose which better fits your need.

Can't find bundle for base name

When you create an initialization of the ResourceBundle, you can do this way also.

For testing and development I have created a properties file under \src with the name prp.properties.

Use this way:

ResourceBundle rb = ResourceBundle.getBundle("prp");

Use xml.etree.ElementTree to print nicely formatted xml files

You could use the library lxml (Note top level link is now spam) , which is a superset of ElementTree. Its tostring() method includes a parameter pretty_print - for example:

>>> print(etree.tostring(root, pretty_print=True))
<root>
  <child1/>
  <child2/>
  <child3/>
</root>

Working around MySQL error "Deadlock found when trying to get lock; try restarting transaction"

Note that if you use SELECT FOR UPDATE to perform a uniqueness check before an insert, you will get a deadlock for every race condition unless you enable the innodb_locks_unsafe_for_binlog option. A deadlock-free method to check uniqueness is to blindly insert a row into a table with a unique index using INSERT IGNORE, then to check the affected row count.

add below line to my.cnf file

innodb_locks_unsafe_for_binlog = 1

#

1 - ON
0 - OFF

How do check if a PHP session is empty?

I know this is old, but I ran into an issue where I was running a function after checking if there was a session. It would throw an error everytime I tried loading the page after logging out, still worked just logged an error page. Make sure you use exit(); if you are running into the same problem.

     function sessionexists(){
        if(!empty($_SESSION)){
     return true;
         }else{
     return false;
         }
      }


        if (!sessionexists()){
           redirect("https://www.yoursite.com/");
           exit();
           }else{call_user_func('check_the_page');

Allowed memory size of 262144 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 24576 bytes)

I was trying to up the limit Wordpress sets on media uploads. I followed advice from some blog I’m not going to mention to raise the limit from 64MB to 2GB.

I did the following:

Created a (php.ini) file in WP ADMIN with the following integers:

upload_max_filesize = 2000MB
post_max_size = 2100MV
memory_limit = 2300MB

I immediately received this error when trying to log into my Wordpress dashboard to check if it worked:

“Allowed memory size of 262144 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 24576 bytes)"

The above information in this chain helped me tremendously. (Stack usually does BTW)

I modified the PHP.ini file to the following:

upload_max_filesize = 2000M
post_max_size = 2100M
memory_limit = 536870912M

The major difference was only use M, not MB, and set that memory limit high.

As soon as I saved the changed the PHP.ini file, I saved it, went to login again and the login screen reappeared.

I went in and checked media uploads, ands bang:

Image showing twordpress media folder “Add New” box, with limits stated as “MAXIMUM UPLOAD FILE SIZE: 2 GB”

I haven't restarted Apache yet… but all looks good.

Thanks everyone.

Why use deflate instead of gzip for text files served by Apache?

Why use deflate instead of gzip for text files served by Apache?

The simple answer is don't.


RFC 2616 defines deflate as:

deflate The "zlib" format defined in RFC 1950 in combination with the "deflate" compression mechanism described in RFC 1951

The zlib format is defined in RFC 1950 as :

     0   1
     +---+---+
     |CMF|FLG|   (more-->)
     +---+---+

       0   1   2   3
     +---+---+---+---+
     |     DICTID    |   (more-->)
     +---+---+---+---+

     +=====================+---+---+---+---+
     |...compressed data...|    ADLER32    |
     +=====================+---+---+---+---+

So, a few headers and an ADLER32 checksum

RFC 2616 defines gzip as:

gzip An encoding format produced by the file compression program "gzip" (GNU zip) as described in RFC 1952 [25]. This format is a Lempel-Ziv coding (LZ77) with a 32 bit CRC.

RFC 1952 defines the compressed data as:

The format presently uses the DEFLATE method of compression but can be easily extended to use other compression methods.

CRC-32 is slower than ADLER32

Compared to a cyclic redundancy check of the same length, it trades reliability for speed (preferring the latter).

So ... we have 2 compression mechanisms that use the same algorithm for compression, but a different algorithm for headers and checksum.

Now, the underlying TCP packets are already pretty reliable, so the issue here is not Adler 32 vs CRC-32 that GZIP uses.


Turns out many browsers over the years implemented an incorrect deflate algorithm. Instead of expecting the zlib header in RFC 1950 they simply expected the compressed payload. Similarly various web servers made the same mistake.

So, over the years browsers started implementing a fuzzy logic deflate implementation, they try for zlib header and adler checksum, if that fails they try for payload.

The result of having complex logic like that is that it is often broken. Verve Studio have a user contributed test section that show how bad the situation is.

For example: deflate works in Safari 4.0 but is broken in Safari 5.1, it also always has issues on IE.


So, best thing to do is avoid deflate altogether, the minor speed boost (due to adler 32) is not worth the risk of broken payloads.

Docker build gives "unable to prepare context: context must be a directory: /Users/tempUser/git/docker/Dockerfile"

It's simple, whenever Docker build is run, docker wants to know, what's the image name, so we need to pass -t : . Now make sure you are in the same directory where you have your Dockerfile and run

docker build -t <image_name>:<version> . Example docker build -t my_apache:latest . assuming you are in the same directory as your Dockerfile otherwise pass -f flag and the Dockerfile.

docker build -t my_apache:latest -f ~/Users/documents/myapache/Dockerfile

How does one get started with procedural generation?

I'm not an expert on this, but I can try and contribute a few answers:

  1. NetHack and it's brethern are open source and rely heavily on procedural generation of levels (maps). Link to the downloads of it. If you are more interested in landscape/texture/cloud generation, I'd recommend you search Gamasutra and GameDev which have quite a few articles on those subjects.

  2. AFAIK I don't think there is much difference between languages. Most of the code you see will be in C/CPP because it's still very much the official language of Game Developers, but you can use anything you want...

  3. Well it depends if you have a project that can benefit from such technology. I saw procedural generation used in simulators for the army (which can be considered a game, although they are not very playable :)).

And a small note - my definition if procedural generation is anything generating a lot of data from a small amount of rules or patterns and lots of randomness, your results may vary :)

Asp Net Web API 2.1 get client IP address

Replying to this 4 year old post, because this seems overcomplicated to me, at least if you're hosting on IIS.

Here's how I solved it:

using System;
using System.Net;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.Http;
...
[HttpPost]
[Route("ContactForm")]
public IHttpActionResult PostContactForm([FromBody] ContactForm contactForm)
    {
        var hostname = HttpContext.Current.Request.UserHostAddress;
        IPAddress ipAddress = IPAddress.Parse(hostname);
        IPHostEntry ipHostEntry = Dns.GetHostEntry(ipAddress);
        ...

Unlike OP, this gives me the client IP and client hostname, not the server. Perhaps they've fixed the bug since then?

How to use DISTINCT and ORDER BY in same SELECT statement?

Extended sort key columns

The reason why what you want to do doesn't work is because of the logical order of operations in SQL, which, for your first query, is (simplified):

  • FROM MonitoringJob
  • SELECT Category, CreationDate i.e. add a so called extended sort key column
  • ORDER BY CreationDate DESC
  • SELECT Category i.e. remove the extended sort key column again from the result.

So, thanks to the SQL standard extended sort key column feature, it is totally possible to order by something that is not in the SELECT clause, because it is being temporarily added to it behind the scenes.

So, why doesn't this work with DISTINCT?

If we add the DISTINCT operation, it would be added between SELECT and ORDER BY:

  • FROM MonitoringJob
  • SELECT Category, CreationDate
  • DISTINCT
  • ORDER BY CreationDate DESC
  • SELECT Category

But now, with the extended sort key column CreationDate, the semantics of the DISTINCT operation has been changed, so the result will no longer be the same. This is not what we want, so both the SQL standard, and all reasonable databases forbid this usage.

Workarounds

It can be emulated with standard syntax as follows

SELECT Category
FROM (
  SELECT Category, MAX(CreationDate) AS CreationDate
  FROM MonitoringJob
  GROUP BY Category
) t
ORDER BY CreationDate DESC

Or, just simply (in this case), as shown also by Prutswonder

SELECT Category, MAX(CreationDate) AS CreationDate
FROM MonitoringJob
GROUP BY Category
ORDER BY CreationDate DESC

I have blogged about SQL DISTINCT and ORDER BY more in detail here.

What does $1 mean in Perl?

In general, questions regarding "magic" variables in Perl can be answered by looking in the Perl predefined variables documentation a la:

perldoc perlvar

However, when you search this documentation for $1, etc., you'll find references in a number of places except the section on these "digit" variables. You have to search for

$<digits>

I would have added this to Brian's answer either by commenting or editing, but I don't have enough rep. If someone adds this I'll remove this answer.

How to switch to the new browser window, which opens after click on the button?

So the problem with a lot of these solutions is you're assuming the window appears instantly (nothing happens instantly, and things happen significantly less instantly in IE). Also you're assuming that there will only be one window prior to clicking the element, which is not always the case. Also IE will not return the window handles in a predictable order. So I would do the following.

 public String clickAndSwitchWindow(WebElement elementToClick, Duration 
    timeToWaitForWindowToAppear) {
    Set<String> priorHandles = _driver.getWindowHandles();

    elementToClick.click();
    try {
        new WebDriverWait(_driver,
                timeToWaitForWindowToAppear.getSeconds()).until(
                d -> {
                    Set<String> newHandles = d.getWindowHandles();
                    if (newHandles.size() > priorHandles.size()) {
                        for (String newHandle : newHandles) {
                            if (!priorHandles.contains(newHandle)) {
                                d.switchTo().window(newHandle);
                                return true;
                            }
                        }
                        return false;
                    } else {
                        return false;
                    }

                });
    } catch (Exception e) {
        Logging.log_AndFail("Encountered error while switching to new window after clicking element " + elementToClick.toString()
                + " seeing error: \n" + e.getMessage());
    }

    return _driver.getWindowHandle();
}

Under what circumstances can I call findViewById with an Options Menu / Action Bar item?

I am trying to obtain a handle on one of the views in the Action Bar

I will assume that you mean something established via android:actionLayout in your <item> element of your <menu> resource.

I have tried calling findViewById(R.id.menu_item)

To retrieve the View associated with your android:actionLayout, call findItem() on the Menu to retrieve the MenuItem, then call getActionView() on the MenuItem. This can be done any time after you have inflated the menu resource.

Binding arrow keys in JS/jQuery

With coffee & Jquery

  $(document).on 'keydown', (e) ->
    switch e.which
      when 37 then console.log('left key')
      when 38 then console.log('up key')
      when 39 then console.log('right key')
      when 40 then console.log('down key')
    e.preventDefault()

JQuery - Get select value

val() returns the value of the <select> element, i.e. the value attribute of the selected <option> element.

Since you actually want the inner text of the selected <option> element, you should match that element and use text() instead:

var nationality = $("#dancerCountry option:selected").text();

Print list without brackets in a single row

print(', '.join(names))

This, like it sounds, just takes all the elements of the list and joins them with ', '.

What's the use of "enum" in Java?

Enums are the recommended way to provide easy-to-remember names for a defined set of contants (optionally with some limited behaviour too).

You should use enums where otherwise you would use multiple static integer constants (eg. public static int ROLE_ADMIN = 0 or BLOOD_TYPE_AB = 2)

The main advantages of using enums instead of these are type safety, compile type warnings/errors when trying to use wrong values and providing a namespace for related "constants". Additionally they are easier to use within an IDE since it helps code completion too.

how to show confirmation alert with three buttons 'Yes' 'No' and 'Cancel' as it shows in MS Word

If you don't want to use a separate JS library to create a custom control for that, you could use two confirm dialogs to do the checks:

if (confirm("Are you sure you want to quit?") ) {
    if (confirm("Save your work before leaving?") ) {
        // code here for save then leave (Yes)
    } else {
        //code here for no save but leave (No)
    }
} else {
    //code here for don't leave (Cancel)
}

import static org.hamcrest.Matchers.is;

public void test_returnsList(){

    arrange();
  
    List<MyBean> myList = act();
    
    assertThat(myList , contains(allOf(hasProperty("id",          is(7L)), 
                                       hasProperty("name",        is("testName1")),
                                       hasProperty("description", is("testDesc1"))),
                                 allOf(hasProperty("id",          is(11L)), 
                                       hasProperty("name",        is("testName2")),
                                       hasProperty("description", is("testDesc2")))));
}

Use containsInAnyOrder if you do not want to check the order of the objects.

P.S. Any help to avoid the warning that is suppresed will be really appreciated.

jQuery toggle CSS?

The best option would be to set a class style in CSS like .showMenu and .hideMenu with the various styles inside. Then you can do something like

$("#user_button").addClass("showMenu"); 

This view is not constrained vertically. At runtime it will jump to the left unless you add a vertical constraint

app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent"

This help me a lot

Selecting Values from Oracle Table Variable / Array?

The sql array type is not neccessary. Not if the element type is a primitive one. (Varchar, number, date,...)

Very basic sample:

declare
  type TPidmList is table of sgbstdn.sgbstdn_pidm%type;
  pidms TPidmList;
begin
  select distinct sgbstdn_pidm
  bulk collect into pidms
  from sgbstdn
  where sgbstdn_majr_code_1 = 'HS04'
  and sgbstdn_program_1 = 'HSCOMPH';

  -- do something with pidms

  open :someCursor for
    select value(t) pidm
    from table(pidms) t;
end;

When you want to reuse it, then it might be interesting to know how that would look like. If you issue several commands than those could be grouped in a package. The private package variable trick from above has its downsides. When you add variables to a package, you give it state and now it doesn't act as a stateless bunch of functions but as some weird sort of singleton object instance instead.

e.g. When you recompile the body, it will raise exceptions in sessions that already used it before. (because the variable values got invalided)

However, you could declare the type in a package (or globally in sql), and use it as a paramter in methods that should use it.

create package Abc as
  type TPidmList is table of sgbstdn.sgbstdn_pidm%type;

  function CreateList(majorCode in Varchar, 
                      program in Varchar) return TPidmList;

  function Test1(list in TPidmList) return PLS_Integer;
  -- "in" to make it immutable so that PL/SQL can pass a pointer instead of a copy
  procedure Test2(list in TPidmList);
end;

create package body Abc as

  function CreateList(majorCode in Varchar, 
                      program in Varchar) return TPidmList is
    result TPidmList;
  begin
    select distinct sgbstdn_pidm
    bulk collect into result
    from sgbstdn
    where sgbstdn_majr_code_1 = majorCode
    and sgbstdn_program_1 = program;

    return result;
  end;

  function Test1(list in TPidmList) return PLS_Integer is
    result PLS_Integer := 0;
  begin
    if list is null or list.Count = 0 then
      return result;
    end if;

    for i in list.First .. list.Last loop
      if ... then
        result := result + list(i);
      end if;
    end loop;
  end;

  procedure Test2(list in TPidmList) as
  begin
    ...
  end;

  return result;
end;

How to call it:

declare
  pidms constant Abc.TPidmList := Abc.CreateList('HS04', 'HSCOMPH');
  xyz PLS_Integer;
begin
  Abc.Test2(pidms);
  xyz := Abc.Test1(pidms);
  ...

  open :someCursor for
    select value(t) as Pidm,
           xyz as SomeValue
    from   table(pidms) t;
end;

How can I embed a YouTube video on GitHub wiki pages?

Complete Example

Expanding on @MGA's Answer

While it's not possible to embed a video in Markdown you can "fake it" by including a valid linked image in your markup file, using this format:

[![IMAGE ALT TEXT](http://img.youtube.com/vi/YOUTUBE_VIDEO_ID_HERE/0.jpg)](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YOUTUBE_VIDEO_ID_HERE "Video Title")

Explanation of the Markdown

If this markup snippet looks complicated, break it down into two parts:

an image
![image alt text](https://example.com/link-to-image)
wrapped in a link
[link text](https://example.com/my-link "link title")

Example using Valid Markdown and YouTube Thumbnail:

Everything Is AWESOME

We are sourcing the thumbnail image directly from YouTube and linking to the actual video, so when the person clicks the image/thumbnail they will be taken to the video.

Code:

[![Everything Is AWESOME](https://img.youtube.com/vi/StTqXEQ2l-Y/0.jpg)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=StTqXEQ2l-Y "Everything Is AWESOME")

OR If you want to give readers a visual cue that the image/thumbnail is actually a playable video, take your own screenshot of the video in YouTube and use that as the thumbnail instead.

Example using Screenshot with Video Controls as Visual Cue:

Everything Is AWESOME

Code:

[![Everything Is AWESOME](http://i.imgur.com/Ot5DWAW.png)](https://youtu.be/StTqXEQ2l-Y?t=35s "Everything Is AWESOME")

 Clear Advantages

While this requires a couple of extra steps (a) taking the screenshot of the video and (b) uploading it so you can use the image as your thumbnail it does have 3 clear advantages:

  1. The person reading your markdown (or resulting html page) has a visual cue telling them they can watch the video (video controls encourage clicking)
  2. You can chose a specific frame in the video to use as the thumbnail (thus making your content more engaging)
  3. You can link to a specific time in the video from which play will start when the linked-image is clicked. (in our case from 35 seconds)

Taking and uploading a screenshot takes a few seconds but has a big payoff.

Works Everywhere!

Since this is standard markdown, it works everywhere. try it on GitHub, Reddit, Ghost, and here on Stack Overflow.

Vimeo

This approach also works with Vimeo videos

Difference between del, remove, and pop on lists

pop

Takes index (when given, else take last), removes value at that index, and returns value

remove

Takes value, removes first occurrence, and returns nothing

delete

Takes index, removes value at that index, and returns nothing

Evaluate if list is empty JSTL

empty is an operator:

The empty operator is a prefix operation that can be used to determine whether a value is null or empty.

mysqldump exports only one table

In case you encounter an error like this

mysqldump: 1044 Access denied when using LOCK TABLES

A quick workaround is to pass the –-single-transaction option to mysqldump.

So your command will be like this.

mysqldump --single-transaction -u user -p DBNAME > backup.sql

Convert Little Endian to Big Endian

Below is an other approach that was useful for me

convertLittleEndianByteArrayToBigEndianByteArray (byte littlendianByte[], byte bigEndianByte[], int ArraySize){
    int i =0;

    for(i =0;i<ArraySize;i++){
      bigEndianByte[i] = (littlendianByte[ArraySize-i-1] << 7 & 0x80) | (littlendianByte[ArraySize-i-1] << 5 & 0x40) |
                            (littlendianByte[ArraySize-i-1] << 3 & 0x20) | (littlendianByte[ArraySize-i-1] << 1 & 0x10) |
                            (littlendianByte[ArraySize-i-1] >>1 & 0x08) | (littlendianByte[ArraySize-i-1] >> 3 & 0x04) |
                            (littlendianByte[ArraySize-i-1] >>5 & 0x02) | (littlendianByte[ArraySize-i-1] >> 7 & 0x01) ;
    }
}

How do I get the max ID with Linq to Entity?

try this

int intIdt = db.Users.Max(u => u.UserId);

Update:

If no record then generate exception using above code try this

int? intIdt = db.Users.Max(u => (int?)u.UserId);

Is it possible to use JS to open an HTML select to show its option list?

The solution I present is safe, simple and compatible with Internet Explorer, FireFox and Chrome.

This approach is new and complete. I not found nothing equal to that solution on the internet. Is simple, cross-browser (Internet Explorer, Chrome and Firefox), preserves the layout, use the select itself and is easy to use.

Note: JQuery is required.

How to tell whether a point is to the right or left side of a line

@AVB's answer in ruby

det = Matrix[
  [(x2 - x1), (x3 - x1)],
  [(y2 - y1), (y3 - y1)]
].determinant

If det is positive its above, if negative its below. If 0, its on the line.

How to show "if" condition on a sequence diagram?

Very simple , using Alt fragment

Lets take an example of sequence diagram for an ATM machine.Let's say here you want

IF card inserted is valid then prompt "Enter Pin"....ELSE prompt "Invalid Pin"

Then here is the sequence diagram for the same

ATM machine sequence diagram

Hope this helps!

Check if EditText is empty.

To editText is empty try another this simple way :

String star = editText.getText().toString();

if (star.equalsIgnoreCase("")) {
  Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Please Set start no", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}

Git push/clone to new server

  1. git remote add name url
  2. git push name branch

Example:

git remote add origin [email protected]:foo/bar.git
git push origin master

See the docs for git push -- you can set a remote as the default remote for a given branch; if you don't, the name origin is special. Just git push alone will do the same as git push origin thisbranch (for whatever branch you're on).

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: View not attached to window manager

i agree a opinion of 'Damjan'.
if you use many dialogs, should close all dialog in onDestroy() or onStop().
then you may be able to reduce the frequency 'java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: View not attached to window manager' exception occurs.

@Override
protected void onDestroy() {
    Log.d(TAG, "called onDestroy");
    mDialog.dismiss();
    super.onDestroy();
}



but little exceed...
to make it more clear, you prevent to show any dialog after onDestroy called.
i don't use as below. but it's clear.

private boolean mIsDestroyed = false;

private void showDialog() {
    closeDialog();

    if (mIsDestroyed) {
        Log.d(TAG, "called onDestroy() already.");
        return;
    }

    mDialog = new AlertDialog(this)
        .setTitle("title")
        .setMessage("This is DialogTest")
        .setNegativeButton("Cancel", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
            public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
                dialog.dismiss();
            }
        })
        .create();
    mDialog.show();
}

private void closeDialog() {
    if (mDialog != null) {
        mDialog.dismiss();
    }
}

@Override
protected void onDestroy() {
    Log.d(TAG, "called onDestroy");
    mIsDestroyed = true;
    closeDialog();

How to round a numpy array?

It is worth noting that the accepted answer will round small floats down to zero.

>>> import numpy as np 
>>> arr = np.asarray([2.92290007e+00, -1.57376965e-03, 4.82011728e-08, 1.92896977e-12])
>>> print(arr)
[ 2.92290007e+00 -1.57376965e-03  4.82011728e-08  1.92896977e-12]
>>> np.round(arr, 2)
array([ 2.92, -0.  ,  0.  ,  0.  ]) 

You can use set_printoptions and a custom formatter to fix this and get a more numpy-esque printout with fewer decimal places:

>>> np.set_printoptions(formatter={'float': "{0:0.2e}".format})
>>> print(arr)
[2.92e+00 -1.57e-03 4.82e-08 1.93e-12]  

This way, you get the full versatility of format and maintain the full precision of numpy's datatypes.

Also note that this only affects printing, not the actual precision of the stored values used for computation.

Setting the Textbox read only property to true using JavaScript

Reading a column from CSV file using JAVA

You are not changing the value of line. It should be something like this.

import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.FileReader;

public class InsertValuesIntoTestDb {

  @SuppressWarnings("rawtypes")
  public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
      String splitBy = ",";
      BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("test.csv"));
      while((line = br.readLine()) != null){
           String[] b = line.split(splitBy);
           System.out.println(b[0]);
      }
      br.close();

  }
}

readLine returns each line and only returns null when there is nothing left. The above code sets line and then checks if it is null.

Replace transparency in PNG images with white background

I needed either: both -alpha background and -flatten, or -fill.

I made a new PNG with a transparent background and a red dot in the middle.

convert image.png -background green -alpha off green.png failed: it produced an image with black background

convert image.png -background green -alpha background -flatten green.png produced an image with the correct green background.

Of course, with another file that I renamed image.png, it failed to do anything. For that file, I found that the color of the transparent pixels was "#d5d5d5" so I filled that color with green:

convert image.png -fill green -opaque "#d5d5d5" green.png replaced the transparent pixels with the correct green.

Difference between JSON.stringify and JSON.parse

JSON : It is mainly used to exchange data to/from the server. Before sending the JSON object to the server, it has to be a string.

JSON.stringify() //Converts the JSON object into the string representation.
var jsonData={"Name":"ABC","Dept":"Software"};// It is a JSON object
var jsonString=JSON.stringify(jsonData);// It is a string representation of the object
// jsonString === '{"Name":"ABC","Dept":"Software"}'; is true

It also converts the Javascript array into string

var arrayObject=["ABC","Software"];// It is array object
var arrString=JSON.stringify(array);// It is string representation of the array (object)
// arrString === '["ABC","Software"]'; is true 

When we received the JSON data from the server, the data would be the string format.Hence we convert the string into JSON object.

JSON.parse() //To convert the string into JSON object.
var data='{ "name":"ABC", "Dept":"Software"}'// it is a string (even though it looks like an object)
var JsonData= JSON.parse(data);// It is a JSON Object representation of the string.
// JsonData === { "name":"ABC", "Dept":"Software"}; is true

Send Mail to multiple Recipients in java

InternetAddress.Parse is going to be your friend! See the worked example below:

String to = "[email protected], [email protected], [email protected]";
String toCommaAndSpaces = "[email protected] [email protected], [email protected]";
  1. Parse a comma-separated list of email addresses. Be strict. Require comma separated list.
  2. If strict is true, many (but not all) of the RFC822 syntax rules for emails are enforced.

    msg.setRecipients(Message.RecipientType.CC,
    InternetAddress.parse(to, true));
    
  3. Parse comma/space-separated list. Cut some slack. We allow spaces seperated list as well, plus invalid email formats.

    msg.setRecipients(Message.RecipientType.BCC,
    InternetAddress.parse(toCommaAndSpaces, false));

Why should C++ programmers minimize use of 'new'?

new is the new goto.

Recall why goto is so reviled: while it is a powerful, low-level tool for flow control, people often used it in unnecessarily complicated ways that made code difficult to follow. Furthermore, the most useful and easiest to read patterns were encoded in structured programming statements (e.g. for or while); the ultimate effect is that the code where goto is the appropriate way to is rather rare, if you are tempted to write goto, you're probably doing things badly (unless you really know what you're doing).

new is similar — it is often used to make things unnecessarily complicated and harder to read, and the most useful usage patterns can be encoded have been encoded into various classes. Furthermore, if you need to use any new usage patterns for which there aren't already standard classes, you can write your own classes that encode them!

I would even argue that new is worse than goto, due to the need to pair new and delete statements.

Like goto, if you ever think you need to use new, you are probably doing things badly — especially if you are doing so outside of the implementation of a class whose purpose in life is to encapsulate whatever dynamic allocations you need to do.

C free(): invalid pointer

From where did you get the idea that you need to free(token) and free(tk)? You don't. strsep() doesn't allocate memory, it only returns pointers inside the original string. Of course, those are not pointers allocated by malloc() (or similar), so free()ing them is undefined behavior. You only need to free(s) when you are done with the entire string.

Also note that you don't need dynamic memory allocation at all in your example. You can avoid strdup() and free() altogether by simply writing char *s = p;.

The type or namespace name 'System' could not be found

I've tried all answers above. For me works only removal and adding the reference again described in the following steps:

  1. Open 'References' under the project.
  2. Right click on 'System' reference.
  3. Click on 'Remove'.
  4. Right click on 'References'.
  5. Click 'Add Reference...'.
  6. From right menu choose an 'Assemblies',
  7. In a search field type 'System'.
  8. Choose 'System' from the list.
  9. Click 'Add' button.
  10. IMPORTANT: Restart the Visual Studio.

What is the "-->" operator in C/C++?

This code first compares x and 0 and then decrements x. (Also said in the first answer: You're post-decrementing x and then comparing x and 0 with the > operator.) See the output of this code:

9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0

We now first compare and then decrement by seeing 0 in the output.

If we want to first decrement and then compare, use this code:

#include <stdio.h>
int main(void)
{
    int x = 10;

    while( --x> 0 ) // x goes to 0
    {
        printf("%d ", x);
    }
    return 0;
}

That output is:

9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1

Objective-C: Extract filename from path string

At the risk of being years late and off topic - and notwithstanding @Marc's excellent insight, in Swift it looks like:

let basename = NSURL(string: "path/to/file.ext")?.URLByDeletingPathExtension?.lastPathComponent

ConnectionTimeout versus SocketTimeout

A connection timeout occurs only upon starting the TCP connection. This usually happens if the remote machine does not answer. This means that the server has been shut down, you used the wrong IP/DNS name, wrong port or the network connection to the server is down.

A socket timeout is dedicated to monitor the continuous incoming data flow. If the data flow is interrupted for the specified timeout the connection is regarded as stalled/broken. Of course this only works with connections where data is received all the time.

By setting socket timeout to 1 this would require that every millisecond new data is received (assuming that you read the data block wise and the block is large enough)!

If only the incoming stream stalls for more than a millisecond you are running into a timeout.

What is the difference between Numpy's array() and asarray() functions?

Since other questions are being redirected to this one which ask about asanyarray or other array creation routines, it's probably worth having a brief summary of what each of them does.

The differences are mainly about when to return the input unchanged, as opposed to making a new array as a copy.

array offers a wide variety of options (most of the other functions are thin wrappers around it), including flags to determine when to copy. A full explanation would take just as long as the docs (see Array Creation, but briefly, here are some examples:

Assume a is an ndarray, and m is a matrix, and they both have a dtype of float32:

  • np.array(a) and np.array(m) will copy both, because that's the default behavior.
  • np.array(a, copy=False) and np.array(m, copy=False) will copy m but not a, because m is not an ndarray.
  • np.array(a, copy=False, subok=True) and np.array(m, copy=False, subok=True) will copy neither, because m is a matrix, which is a subclass of ndarray.
  • np.array(a, dtype=int, copy=False, subok=True) will copy both, because the dtype is not compatible.

Most of the other functions are thin wrappers around array that control when copying happens:

  • asarray: The input will be returned uncopied iff it's a compatible ndarray (copy=False).
  • asanyarray: The input will be returned uncopied iff it's a compatible ndarray or subclass like matrix (copy=False, subok=True).
  • ascontiguousarray: The input will be returned uncopied iff it's a compatible ndarray in contiguous C order (copy=False, order='C').
  • asfortranarray: The input will be returned uncopied iff it's a compatible ndarray in contiguous Fortran order (copy=False, order='F').
  • require: The input will be returned uncopied iff it's compatible with the specified requirements string.
  • copy: The input is always copied.
  • fromiter: The input is treated as an iterable (so, e.g., you can construct an array from an iterator's elements, instead of an object array with the iterator); always copied.

There are also convenience functions, like asarray_chkfinite (same copying rules as asarray, but raises ValueError if there are any nan or inf values), and constructors for subclasses like matrix or for special cases like record arrays, and of course the actual ndarray constructor (which lets you create an array directly out of strides over a buffer).

how to run or install a *.jar file in windows?

Have you tried (from a command line)

java -jar jbpm-installer-3.2.7.jar

or double clicking it with the mouse ?

Found this and this by googling.

Hope it helps

Turning off some legends in a ggplot

You can use guide=FALSE in scale_..._...() to suppress legend.

For your example you should use scale_colour_continuous() because length is continuous variable (not discrete).

(p3 <- ggplot(mov, aes(year, rating, colour = length, shape = mpaa)) +
   scale_colour_continuous(guide = FALSE) +
   geom_point()
)

Or using function guides() you should set FALSE for that element/aesthetic that you don't want to appear as legend, for example, fill, shape, colour.

p0 <- ggplot(mov, aes(year, rating, colour = length, shape = mpaa)) +
  geom_point()    
p0+guides(colour=FALSE)

UPDATE

Both provided solutions work in new ggplot2 version 2.0.0 but movies dataset is no longer present in this library. Instead you have to use new package ggplot2movies to check those solutions.

library(ggplot2movies)
data(movies)
mov <- subset(movies, length != "")

How to add Apache HTTP API (legacy) as compile-time dependency to build.grade for Android M?

For API 23:

Top level build.gradle - /build.gradle

buildscript {
    ...
    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:1.3.1'
    }
}
...

Module specific build.gradle - /app/build.gradle

android {
    compileSdkVersion 23
    buildToolsVersion "23.0.0"
    useLibrary 'org.apache.http.legacy'
    ...
}

gcc makefile error: "No rule to make target ..."

The problem I found was even sillier than what other folks have mentioned.

Our makefiles get passed lists of things to build. Someone added TheOtherLibrary to one of the lists, as shown below.

LIBRARYDIRS = src/Library
LIBRARYDIRS = src/TheOtherLibrary

They should have done this:

LIBRARYDIRS = src/Library
LIBRARYDIRS += src/TheOtherLibrary

Had they done it the second way, they would not have wiped out the Library build. The plus in += is very important.

Android SeekBar setOnSeekBarChangeListener

onProgressChanged is called every time you move the cursor.

@Override
public void onProgressChanged(SeekBar seekBar, int progress, boolean fromUser) {
    textView.setText(String.valueOf(new Integer(progress)));        
}

so textView should show the progress and alter always if the seekbar is being moved.

How to compare the contents of two string objects in PowerShell

How do I find out my root MySQL password?

Under MYSQL 5.7, If you are using mysql for development purpose, just :

1.kill mysql :

$ sudo service mysql stop

2.start mysql under --skip-grant-tables mode:

$ sudo mysqld_safe --skip-grant-tables 

and, further, you could try to change the user table under "skip-grant-table" mode, however I failed.

so, this is just a workaround.

Is there a way to cache GitHub credentials for pushing commits?

The composer documentation mentions that you can prevent it from using the GitHub API, so that it acts like git clone:

If you set the no-api key to true on a GitHub repository it will clone the repository as it would with any other Git repository instead of using the GitHub API. But unlike using the git driver directly, composer will still attempt to use GitHub's zip files.

So the section would look like this:

"repositories": [
    {
        "type": "vcs",
        "no-api": true,
        "url": "https://github.com/your/repo"
    }
],

Keep in mind that the API is there for a reason. So it this should be a method of last resort regarding the increased load on github.com.

Sort a list alphabetically

Another way

_details.Sort((s1, s2) => s1.CompareTo(s2)); 

Second line in li starts under the bullet after CSS-reset

I second Dipaks' answer, but often just the text-indent is enough as you may/maynot be positioning the ul for better layout control.

ul li{

Moving matplotlib legend outside of the axis makes it cutoff by the figure box

How to make an HTTP get request with parameters

In a GET request, you pass parameters as part of the query string.

string url = "http://somesite.com?var=12345";

How do I enable FFMPEG logging and where can I find the FFMPEG log file?

I find the answer. 1/First put in the presets, i have this example "Output format MPEG2 DVD HQ"

-vcodec mpeg2video -vstats_file MFRfile.txt -r 29.97 -s 352x480 -aspect 4:3 -b 4000k -mbd rd -trellis -mv0 -cmp 2 -subcmp 2 -acodec mp2 -ab 192k -ar 48000 -ac 2

If you want a report includes the commands -vstats_file MFRfile.txt into the presets like the example. this can make a report which it's ubicadet in the folder source of your file Source. you can put any name if you want , i solved my problem "i write many times in this forum" reading a complete .docx about mpeg properties. finally i can do my progress bar reading this txt file generated.

Call Stored Procedure within Create Trigger in SQL Server

You pass an undefined rAgent_IP parameter in EXEC instead of the local variable @rAgent_IP.

Still, this trigger will fail if you perform a multi-record INSERT statement.

Yarn install command error No such file or directory: 'install'

For Ubuntu 18.04.4 LTS I just followed the official instructions: https://classic.yarnpkg.com/en/docs/install#debian-stable

curl -sS https://dl.yarnpkg.com/debian/pubkey.gpg | sudo apt-key add -
echo "deb https://dl.yarnpkg.com/debian/ stable main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/yarn.list

sudo apt update && sudo apt install yarn

No need to do:

sudo apt remove cmdtest

That is only necessary on Ubuntu 17.04.* I think.

I hope it helps!

convert string array to string

A simple string.Concat() is what you need.

string[] test = new string[2];

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

string result = string.Concat(test);

If you also need to add a seperator (space, comma etc) then, string.Join() should be used.

string[] test = new string[2];

test[0] = "Red";
test[1] = "Blue";

string result = string.Join(",", test);

If you have to perform this on a string array with hundereds of elements than string.Join() is better by performace point of view. Just give a "" (blank) argument as seperator. StringBuilder can also be used for sake of performance, but it will make code a bit longer.

PHP unable to load php_curl.dll extension

Add your php folder path to the System PATH and everything should work fine. It will also fix some other extensions that are broken.

Measure execution time for a Java method

You might want to think about aspect-oriented programming. You don't want to litter your code with timings. You want to be able to turn them off and on declaratively.

If you use Spring, take a look at their MethodInterceptor class.

Is there a program to decompile Delphi?

Languages like Delphi, C and C++ Compile to processor-native machine code, and the output executables have little or no metadata in them. This is in contrast with Java or .Net, which compile to object-oriented platform-independent bytecode, which retains the names of methods, method parameters, classes and namespaces, and other metadata.

So there is a lot less useful decompiling that can be done on Delphi or C code. However, Delphi typically has embedded form data for any form in the project (generated by the $R *.dfm line), and it also has metadata on all published properties, so a Delphi-specific tool would be able to extract this information.

How to get span tag inside a div in jQuery and assign a text?

$("#message > span").text("your text");

$("#message > a.close-notify").siblings('span').text("your text");

Java - checking if parseInt throws exception

Check if it is integer parseable

public boolean isInteger(String string) {
    try {
        Integer.valueOf(string);
        return true;
    } catch (NumberFormatException e) {
        return false;
    }
}

or use Scanner

Scanner scanner = new Scanner("Test string: 12.3 dog 12345 cat 1.2E-3");

while (scanner.hasNext()) {
    if (scanner.hasNextDouble()) {
        Double doubleValue = scanner.nextDouble();
    } else {
        String stringValue = scanner.next();
    }
}

or use Regular Expression like

private static Pattern doublePattern = Pattern.compile("-?\\d+(\\.\\d*)?");

public boolean isDouble(String string) {
    return doublePattern.matcher(string).matches();
}

Use latest version of Internet Explorer in the webbrowser control

I saw Veer's answer. I think it's right, but it did not I work for me. Maybe I am using .NET 4 and am using 64x OS so kindly check this.

You may put in setup or check it in start-up of your application:

private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    var appName = Process.GetCurrentProcess().ProcessName + ".exe";
    SetIE8KeyforWebBrowserControl(appName);
}

private void SetIE8KeyforWebBrowserControl(string appName)
{
    RegistryKey Regkey = null;
    try
    {
        // For 64 bit machine
        if (Environment.Is64BitOperatingSystem)
            Regkey = Microsoft.Win32.Registry.LocalMachine.OpenSubKey(@"SOFTWARE\\Wow6432Node\\Microsoft\\Internet Explorer\\Main\\FeatureControl\\FEATURE_BROWSER_EMULATION", true);
        else  //For 32 bit machine
            Regkey = Microsoft.Win32.Registry.LocalMachine.OpenSubKey(@"SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\Internet Explorer\\Main\\FeatureControl\\FEATURE_BROWSER_EMULATION", true);

        // If the path is not correct or
        // if the user haven't priviledges to access the registry
        if (Regkey == null)
        {
            MessageBox.Show("Application Settings Failed - Address Not found");
            return;
        }

        string FindAppkey = Convert.ToString(Regkey.GetValue(appName));

        // Check if key is already present
        if (FindAppkey == "8000")
        {
            MessageBox.Show("Required Application Settings Present");
            Regkey.Close();
            return;
        }

        // If a key is not present add the key, Key value 8000 (decimal)
        if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(FindAppkey))
            Regkey.SetValue(appName, unchecked((int)0x1F40), RegistryValueKind.DWord);

        // Check for the key after adding
        FindAppkey = Convert.ToString(Regkey.GetValue(appName));

        if (FindAppkey == "8000")
            MessageBox.Show("Application Settings Applied Successfully");
        else
            MessageBox.Show("Application Settings Failed, Ref: " + FindAppkey);
    }
    catch (Exception ex)
    {
        MessageBox.Show("Application Settings Failed");
        MessageBox.Show(ex.Message);
    }
    finally
    {
        // Close the Registry
        if (Regkey != null)
            Regkey.Close();
    }
}

You may find messagebox.show, just for testing.

Keys are as the following:

  • 11001 (0x2AF9) - Internet Explorer 11. Webpages are displayed in IE11 edge mode, regardless of the !DOCTYPE directive.

  • 11000 (0x2AF8) - Internet Explorer 11. Webpages containing standards-based !DOCTYPE directives are displayed in IE11 edge mode. Default value for IE11.

  • 10001 (0x2711)- Internet Explorer 10. Webpages are displayed in IE10 Standards mode, regardless of the !DOCTYPE directive.

  • 10000 (0x2710)- Internet Explorer 10. Webpages containing standards-based !DOCTYPE directives are displayed in IE10 Standards mode. Default value for Internet Explorer 10.

  • 9999 (0x270F) - Internet Explorer 9. Webpages are displayed in IE9 Standards mode, regardless of the !DOCTYPE directive.

  • 9000 (0x2328) - Internet Explorer 9. Webpages containing standards-based !DOCTYPE directives are displayed in IE9 mode.

  • 8888 (0x22B8) - Webpages are displayed in IE8 Standards mode, regardless of the !DOCTYPE directive.

  • 8000 (0x1F40) - Webpages containing standards-based !DOCTYPE directives are displayed in IE8 mode.

  • 7000 (0x1B58) - Webpages containing standards-based !DOCTYPE directives are displayed in IE7 Standards mode.

Reference: MSDN: Internet Feature Controls

I saw applications like Skype use 10001. I do not know.

NOTE

The setup application will change the registry. You may need to add a line in the Manifest File to avoid errors due to permissions of change in registry:

<requestedExecutionLevel level="highestAvailable" uiAccess="false" />

Credit card expiration dates - Inclusive or exclusive?

It took me a couple of minutes to find a site that I could source for this.

The card is valid until the last day of the month indicated, after the last [sic]1 day of the next month; the card cannot be used to make a purchase if the merchant attempts to obtain an authorization. - Source

Also, while looking this up, I found an interesting article on Microsoft's website using an example like this, exec summary: Access 2000 for a month/year defaults to the first day of the month, here's how to override that to calculate the end of the month like you'd want for a credit card.

Additionally, this page has everything you ever wanted to know about credit cards.


  1. This is assumed to be a typo and that it should read "..., after the first day of the next month; ..."

How can I get a character in a string by index?

Do you mean like this

int index = 2;
string s = "hello";
Console.WriteLine(s[index]);

string also implements IEnumberable<char> so you can also enumerate it like this

foreach (char c in s)
    Console.WriteLine(c);

How can I pass a parameter to a setTimeout() callback?

In modern browsers, the "setTimeout" receives a third parameter that is sent as parameter to the internal function at the end of the timer.

Example:

_x000D_
_x000D_
var hello = "Hello World";_x000D_
setTimeout(alert, 1000, hello);
_x000D_
_x000D_
_x000D_

Java code for getting current time

try this to get the current date.You can also get current hour, minutes and seconds by using getters :

Setting a JPA timestamp column to be generated by the database?

If you mark your entity with @DynamicInsert e.g.

@Entity
@DynamicInsert
@Table(name = "TABLE_NAME")
public class ClassName implements Serializable  {

Hibernate will generate SQL without null values. Then the database will insert its own default value. This does have performance implications See [Dynamic Insert][1].

How to prevent errno 32 broken pipe?

It depends on how you tested it, and possibly on differences in the TCP stack implementation of the personal computer and the server.

For example, if your sendall always completes immediately (or very quickly) on the personal computer, the connection may simply never have broken during sending. This is very likely if your browser is running on the same machine (since there is no real network latency).


In general, you just need to handle the case where a client disconnects before you're finished, by handling the exception.

Remember that TCP communications are asynchronous, but this is much more obvious on physically remote connections than on local ones, so conditions like this can be hard to reproduce on a local workstation. Specifically, loopback connections on a single machine are often almost synchronous.

Difference between Visibility.Collapsed and Visibility.Hidden

Visibility : Hidden Vs Collapsed

Consider following code which only shows three Labels and has second Label visibility as Collapsed:

 <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" VerticalAlignment="Top" HorizontalAlignment="Center">
    <StackPanel.Resources>
        <Style TargetType="Label">
            <Setter Property="Height" Value="30" />
            <Setter Property="Margin" Value="0"/>
            <Setter Property="BorderBrush" Value="Black"/>
            <Setter Property="BorderThickness" Value="1" />
        </Style>
    </StackPanel.Resources>
    <Label Width="50" Content="First"/>
    <Label Width="50" Content="Second" Visibility="Collapsed"/>
    <Label Width="50" Content="Third"/>
</StackPanel>

Output Collapsed:

Collapsed

Now change the second Label visibility to Hiddden.

<Label Width="50" Content="Second" Visibility="Hidden"/>

Output Hidden:

Hidden

As simple as that.

What is username and password when starting Spring Boot with Tomcat?

When I started learning Spring Security, then I overrided the method userDetailsService() as in below code snippet:

@Configuration
@EnableWebSecurity
public class ApplicationSecurityConfiguration extends WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter{

    @Override
    protected void configure(HttpSecurity http) throws Exception {
        http
                .csrf().disable()
                .authorizeRequests()
                .antMatchers("/", "/index").permitAll()
                .anyRequest().authenticated()
                .and()
                .httpBasic();
    }

    @Override
    @Bean
    public UserDetailsService userDetailsService() {
        List<UserDetails> users= new ArrayList<UserDetails>();
        users.add(User.withDefaultPasswordEncoder().username("admin").password("nimda").roles("USER","ADMIN").build());
        users.add(User.withDefaultPasswordEncoder().username("Spring").password("Security").roles("USER").build());
        return new InMemoryUserDetailsManager(users);
    }
}

So we can log in to the application using the above-mentioned creds. (e.g. admin/nimda)

Note: This we should not use in production.

$(...).datepicker is not a function - JQuery - Bootstrap

You can try the following and it worked for me.

Import following scripts and css files as there are used by the date picker.

<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.9.1.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/bootstrap-datepicker/1.4.1/js/bootstrap-datepicker.min.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/bootstrap-datepicker/1.4.1/css/bootstrap-datepicker3.css"/>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/bootstrap.min.css">
<script src="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.0.0/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>

<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://code.jquery.com/ui/1.12.1/themes/base/jquery-ui.css">

The JS coding for the Date Picker I use.

<script>
        $(document).ready(function(){
            // alert ('Cliecked');
            var date_input=$('input[name="orangeDateOfBirthForm"]'); //our date input has the name "date"
            var container=$('.bootstrap-iso form').length>0 ? $('.bootstrap-iso form').parent() : "body";
            var options={
                format: 'dd/mm/yyyy', //format of the date
                container: container,
                changeYear: true, // you can change the year as you need
                changeMonth: true, // you can change the months as you need
                todayHighlight: true,
                autoclose: true,
                yearRange: "1930:2100" // the starting to end of year range 
            };
            date_input.datepicker(options);
        });
    </script>

The HTML Coding:

 <input type="text" id="orangeDateOfBirthForm" name="orangeDateOfBirthForm" class="form-control validate" required>
 <label data-error="wrong" data-success="right" for="orangeForm-email">Date of Birth</label>

How to access route, post, get etc. parameters in Zend Framework 2

The easisest way to get a posted json string, for example, is to read the contents of 'php://input' and then decode it. For example i had a simple Zend route:

'save-json' => array(
'type' => 'Zend\Mvc\Router\Http\Segment',
            'options' => array(
                'route'    => '/save-json/',
                'defaults' => array(
                    'controller' => 'CDB\Controller\Index',
                    'action'     => 'save-json',
                ),
            ),
        ),

and i wanted to post data to it using Angular's $http.post. The post was fine but the retrive method in Zend

$this->params()->fromPost('paramname'); 

didn't get anything in this case. So my solution was, after trying all kinds of methods like $_POST and the other methods stated above, to read from 'php://':

$content = file_get_contents('php://input');
print_r(json_decode($content));

I got my json array in the end. Hope this helps.

Inserting line breaks into PDF

You state that

2 is the height of the multi-line text box

No it's not. 2 is the distance between lines of text.

I don't think there is a real way for calculating the height of the actual resulting text box, unless you use GetY() and then subtract the original Y value used in your SetXY() statement for placing the Multicell in the first place.

Javascript can't find element by id?

Script is called before element exists.

You should try one of the following:

  1. wrap code into a function and use a body onload event to call it.
  2. put script at the end of document
  3. use defer attribute into script tag declaration

Use the auto keyword in C++ STL

If you want a code that is readable by all programmers (c++, java, and others) use the original old form instead of cryptographic new features

for(size_t i = 0; i < m_dataDraw->m_dataDrawArrayInfoList.size(); i++) {
    ddai = m_dataDraw->m_dataDrawArrayInfoList[i];
    //...
}

how to print float value upto 2 decimal place without rounding off

The only easy way to do this is to use snprintf to print to a buffer that's long enough to hold the entire, exact value, then truncate it as a string. Something like:

char buf[2*(DBL_MANT_DIG + DBL_MAX_EXP)];
snprintf(buf, sizeof buf, "%.*f", (int)sizeof buf, x);
char *p = strchr(buf, '.'); // beware locale-specific radix char, though!
p[2+1] = 0;
puts(buf);

How do you get the length of a string?

You don't need to use jquery.

var myString = 'abc';
var n = myString.length;

n will be 3.

Calculating Waiting Time and Turnaround Time in (non-preemptive) FCFS queue

For non-preemptive system,

waitingTime = startTime - arrivalTime

turnaroundTime = burstTime + waitingTime = finishTime- arrivalTime

startTime = Time at which the process started executing

finishTime = Time at which the process finished executing

You can keep track of the current time elapsed in the system(timeElapsed). Assign all processors to a process in the beginning, and execute until the shortest process is done executing. Then assign this processor which is free to the next process in the queue. Do this until the queue is empty and all processes are done executing. Also, whenever a process starts executing, recored its startTime, when finishes, record its finishTime (both same as timeElapsed). That way you can calculate what you need.

Is there a way to @Autowire a bean that requires constructor arguments?

Another alternative, if you already have an instance of the object created and you want to add it as an @autowired dependency to initialize all the internal @autowired variables, could be the following:

@Autowired 
private AutowireCapableBeanFactory autowireCapableBeanFactory;

public void doStuff() {
   YourObject obj = new YourObject("Value X", "etc");
   autowireCapableBeanFactory.autowireBean(obj);
}

Reverse Singly Linked List Java

        for(int i = 0; i <=linkedList.size()-1; i++){

            System.out.println(" - "+ linkedList.get(i));

        }

            linkedList.set(i, linkedList.get(linkedList.size()-1-i));
            linkedList.set((linkedList.size()-1-i), temp);
        }
        return linkedList;
    }
}

Executing multiple commands from a Windows cmd script

Not sure why the first command is stopping. If you can make it parallel, you can try something like

start cmd.exe /C 2.bat

Make scrollbars only visible when a Div is hovered over?

Answer by @Calvin Froedge is the shortest answer but have an issue also mentioned by @kizu. Due to inconsistent width of the div the div will flick on hover. To solve this issue add minus margin to the right on hover

#div { 
     overflow:hidden;
     height:whatever px; 
}
#div:hover { 
     overflow-y:scroll; 
     margin-right: -15px; // adjust according to scrollbar width  
}

Decompile Python 2.7 .pyc

UPDATE (2019-04-22) - It sounds like you want to use uncompyle6 nowadays rather than the answers I had mentioned originally.

This sounds like it works: http://code.google.com/p/unpyc/

Issue 8 says it supports 2.7: http://code.google.com/p/unpyc/updates/list

UPDATE (2013-09-03) - As noted in the comments and in other answers, you should look at https://github.com/wibiti/uncompyle2 or https://github.com/gstarnberger/uncompyle instead of unpyc.

Switch case on type c#

The following code works more or less as one would expect a type-switch that only looks at the actual type (e.g. what is returned by GetType()).

public static void TestTypeSwitch()
{
    var ts = new TypeSwitch()
        .Case((int x) => Console.WriteLine("int"))
        .Case((bool x) => Console.WriteLine("bool"))
        .Case((string x) => Console.WriteLine("string"));

    ts.Switch(42);     
    ts.Switch(false);  
    ts.Switch("hello"); 
}

Here is the machinery required to make it work.

public class TypeSwitch
{
    Dictionary<Type, Action<object>> matches = new Dictionary<Type, Action<object>>();
    public TypeSwitch Case<T>(Action<T> action) { matches.Add(typeof(T), (x) => action((T)x)); return this; } 
    public void Switch(object x) { matches[x.GetType()](x); }
}

How can I create 2 separate log files with one log4j config file?

Modify your log4j.properties file accordingly:

log4j.rootLogger=TRACE,stdout
...
log4j.logger.debugLog=TRACE,debugLog
log4j.logger.reportsLog=DEBUG,reportsLog

Change the log levels for each logger depending to your needs.

How to Use Content-disposition for force a file to download to the hard drive?

On the HTTP Response where you are returning the PDF file, ensure the content disposition header looks like:

Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=quot.pdf;

See content-disposition on the wikipedia MIME page.

Access multiple viewchildren using @viewchild

Use the @ViewChildren decorator combined with QueryList. Both of these are from "@angular/core"

@ViewChildren(CustomComponent) customComponentChildren: QueryList<CustomComponent>;

Doing something with each child looks like: this.customComponentChildren.forEach((child) => { child.stuff = 'y' })

There is further documentation to be had at angular.io, specifically: https://angular.io/docs/ts/latest/cookbook/component-communication.html#!#sts=Parent%20calls%20a%20ViewChild

Printing the value of a variable in SQL Developer

SQL Developer seems to only output the DBMS_OUTPUT text when you have explicitly turned on the DBMS_OUTPUT window pane.

Go to (Menu) VIEW -> Dbms_output to invoke the pane.

Click on the Green Plus sign to enable output for your connection and then run the code.

EDIT: Don't forget to set the buffer size according to the amount of output you are expecting.

How to get current memory usage in android?

I refer few writings.

reference:

This getMemorySize() method is returned MemorySize that has total and free memory size.
I don't believe this code perfectly.
This code is testing on LG G3 cat.6 (v5.0.1)

    private MemorySize getMemorySize() {
        final Pattern PATTERN = Pattern.compile("([a-zA-Z]+):\\s*(\\d+)");

        MemorySize result = new MemorySize();
        String line;
        try {
            RandomAccessFile reader = new RandomAccessFile("/proc/meminfo", "r");
            while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
                Matcher m = PATTERN.matcher(line);
                if (m.find()) {
                    String name = m.group(1);
                    String size = m.group(2);

                    if (name.equalsIgnoreCase("MemTotal")) {
                        result.total = Long.parseLong(size);
                    } else if (name.equalsIgnoreCase("MemFree") || name.equalsIgnoreCase("Buffers") ||
                            name.equalsIgnoreCase("Cached") || name.equalsIgnoreCase("SwapFree")) {
                        result.free += Long.parseLong(size);
                    }
                }
            }
            reader.close();

            result.total *= 1024;
            result.free *= 1024;
        } catch (IOException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }

        return result;
    }

    private static class MemorySize {
        public long total = 0;
        public long free = 0;
    }

I know that Pattern.compile() is expensive cost so You may move its code to class member.

How many concurrent requests does a single Flask process receive?

No- you can definitely handle more than that.

Its important to remember that deep deep down, assuming you are running a single core machine, the CPU really only runs one instruction* at a time.

Namely, the CPU can only execute a very limited set of instructions, and it can't execute more than one instruction per clock tick (many instructions even take more than 1 tick).

Therefore, most concurrency we talk about in computer science is software concurrency. In other words, there are layers of software implementation that abstract the bottom level CPU from us and make us think we are running code concurrently.

These "things" can be processes, which are units of code that get run concurrently in the sense that each process thinks its running in its own world with its own, non-shared memory.

Another example is threads, which are units of code inside processes that allow concurrency as well.

The reason your 4 worker processes will be able to handle more than 4 requests is that they will fire off threads to handle more and more requests.

The actual request limit depends on HTTP server chosen, I/O, OS, hardware, network connection etc.

Good luck!

*instructions are the very basic commands the CPU can run. examples - add two numbers, jump from one instruction to another
