Programs & Examples On #Dynamic scope

Dynamic scoping is a method of variable scoping where variables are bound based upon the call stack, instead of where they are defined.

Wrap text in <td> tag

HTML tables support a "table-layout:fixed" css style that prevents the user agent from adapting column widths to their content. You might want to use it.

How should a model be structured in MVC?

In my case I have a database class that handle all the direct database interaction such as querying, fetching, and such. So if I had to change my database from MySQL to PostgreSQL there won't be any problem. So adding that extra layer can be useful.

Each table can have its own class and have its specific methods, but to actually get the data, it lets the database class handle it:

File Database.php

class Database {
    private static $connection;
    private static $current_query;
    ...

    public static function query($sql) {
        if (!self::$connection){
            self::open_connection();
        }
        self::$current_query = $sql;
        $result = mysql_query($sql,self::$connection);

        if (!$result){
            self::close_connection();
            // throw custom error
            // The query failed for some reason. here is query :: self::$current_query
            $error = new Error(2,"There is an Error in the query.\n<b>Query:</b>\n{$sql}\n");
            $error->handleError();
        }
        return $result;
    }
 ....

    public static function find_by_sql($sql){
        if (!is_string($sql))
            return false;

        $result_set = self::query($sql);
        $obj_arr = array();
        while ($row = self::fetch_array($result_set))
        {
            $obj_arr[] = self::instantiate($row);
        }
        return $obj_arr;
    }
}

Table object classL

class DomainPeer extends Database {

    public static function getDomainInfoList() {
        $sql = 'SELECT ';
        $sql .='d.`id`,';
        $sql .='d.`name`,';
        $sql .='d.`shortName`,';
        $sql .='d.`created_at`,';
        $sql .='d.`updated_at`,';
        $sql .='count(q.id) as queries ';
        $sql .='FROM `domains` d ';
        $sql .='LEFT JOIN queries q on q.domainId = d.id ';
        $sql .='GROUP BY d.id';
        return self::find_by_sql($sql);
    }

    ....
}

I hope this example helps you create a good structure.

Combining C++ and C - how does #ifdef __cplusplus work?

  1. extern "C" doesn't change the presence or absence of the __cplusplus macro. It just changes the linkage and name-mangling of the wrapped declarations.

  2. You can nest extern "C" blocks quite happily.

  3. If you compile your .c files as C++ then anything not in an extern "C" block, and without an extern "C" prototype will be treated as a C++ function. If you compile them as C then of course everything will be a C function.

  4. Yes

  5. You can safely mix C and C++ in this way.

How to connect android wifi to adhoc wifi?

I did notice something of interest here: In my 2.3.4 phone I can't see AP/AdHoc SSIDs in the Settings > Wireless & Networks menu. On an Acer A500 running 4.0.3 I do see them, prefixed by (*)

However in the following bit of code that I adapted from (can't remember source, sorry!) I do see the Ad Hoc show up in the Wifi Scan on my 2.3.4 phone. I am still looking to actually connect and create a socket + input/outputStream. But, here ya go:

    public class MainActivity extends Activity {

private static final String CHIPKIT_BSSID = "E2:14:9F:18:40:1C";
private static final int CHIPKIT_WIFI_PRIORITY = 1;

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.main);

    final Button btnDoSomething = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btnDoSomething);
    final Button btnNewScan = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btnNewScan);
    final TextView textWifiManager = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.WifiManager);
    final TextView textWifiInfo = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.WifiInfo);
    final TextView textIp = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.Ip);

    final WifiManager myWifiManager = (WifiManager) getSystemService(Context.WIFI_SERVICE);
    final WifiInfo myWifiInfo = myWifiManager.getConnectionInfo();

    WifiConfiguration wifiConfiguration = new WifiConfiguration();
    wifiConfiguration.BSSID = CHIPKIT_BSSID;
    wifiConfiguration.priority = CHIPKIT_WIFI_PRIORITY;
    wifiConfiguration.allowedKeyManagement.set(WifiConfiguration.KeyMgmt.NONE);
    wifiConfiguration.allowedKeyManagement.set(KeyMgmt.NONE);
    wifiConfiguration.allowedGroupCiphers.set(WifiConfiguration.GroupCipher.TKIP);
    wifiConfiguration.allowedAuthAlgorithms.set(WifiConfiguration.AuthAlgorithm.OPEN);
    wifiConfiguration.status = WifiConfiguration.Status.ENABLED;

    myWifiManager.setWifiEnabled(true);

    int netID = myWifiManager.addNetwork(wifiConfiguration);

    myWifiManager.enableNetwork(netID, true);

    textWifiInfo.setText("SSID: " + myWifiInfo.getSSID() + '\n' 
            + myWifiManager.getWifiState() + "\n\n");

    btnDoSomething.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {          
        public void onClick(View v) {
            clearTextViews(textWifiManager, textIp);                
        }           
    });

    btnNewScan.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        public void onClick(View v) {
            getNewScan(myWifiManager, textWifiManager, textIp);
        }
    });     
}

private void clearTextViews(TextView...tv) {
    for(int i = 0; i<tv.length; i++){
        tv[i].setText("");
    }       
}

public void getNewScan(WifiManager wm, TextView...textViews) {
    wm.startScan();

    List<ScanResult> scanResult = wm.getScanResults();

    String scan = "";

    for (int i = 0; i < scanResult.size(); i++) {
        scan += (scanResult.get(i).toString() + "\n\n");
    }

    textViews[0].setText(scan);
    textViews[1].setText(wm.toString());
}

@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
    getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.main, menu);
    return true;
}

Don't forget that in Eclipse you can use Ctrl+Shift+[letter O] to fill in the missing imports...

and my manifest:

    <manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.digilent.simpleclient"
android:versionCode="1"
android:versionName="1.0" >

<uses-sdk
    android:minSdkVersion="8"
    android:targetSdkVersion="15" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CHANGE_WIFI_STATE"/>

<application
    android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
    android:label="@string/app_name"
    android:theme="@style/AppTheme" >
    <activity
        android:name=".MainActivity"
        android:label="@string/title_activity_main" >
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />

            <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
        </intent-filter>
    </activity>
</application>

Hope that helps!

Set the text in a span

This is because you have wrong selector. According to your markup, .ui-icon and .ui-icon-circle-triangle-w" should point to the same <span> element. So you should use:

$(".ui-icon.ui-icon-circle-triangle-w").html("<<");

or

$(".ui-datepicker-prev .ui-icon").html("<<");

or

$(".ui-datepicker-prev span").html("<<");

Converting SVG to PNG using C#

There is a much easier way using the library http://svg.codeplex.com/ (Newer version @GIT, @NuGet). Here is my code

{
    var svgDocument = SvgDocument.Open(stream);
    var bitmap = svgDocument.Draw();
    bitmap.Save(path, ImageFormat.Png);

How to position a Bootstrap popover?

I solved this (partially) by adding some lines of code to the bootstrap css library. You will have to modify tooltip.js, tooltip.less, popover.js, and popover.less

in tooltip.js, add this case in the switch statement there

case 'bottom-right':
          tp = {top: pos.top + pos.height, left: pos.left + pos.width}
          break

in tooltip.less, add these two lines in .tooltip{}

&.bottom-right { margin-top:   -2px; }
&.bottom-right .tooltip-arrow { #popoverArrow > .bottom(); }

do the same in popover.js and popover.less. Basically, wherever you find code where other positions are mentioned, add your desired position accordingly.

As I mentioned earlier, this solved the problem partially. My problem now is that the little arrow of the popover does not appear.

note: if you want to have the popover in top-left, use top attribute of '.top' and left attribute of '.left'

What is a good naming convention for vars, methods, etc in C++?

While many people will suggest more or less strict Hungarian notation variants (scary!), for naming suggestions I'd suggest you take a look at Google C++ Coding Guidelines. This may well be not the most popular naming conventions, but at least it's fairly complete. Apart from sound naming conventions, there's some useful guidelines there, however much of it should be taken with a grain of salt (exception ban for example, and the tendency to keep away from modern C++ coding style).

Although personally I like the extreme low-tech convention style of STL and Boost ;).

Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();
int offset = cal.getTimeZone().getOffset(cal.getTimeInMillis());
Date da = new Date(); 
da = new Date(longDate-(long)offset);
cal.setTime(da);

String time =cal.getTime().toLocaleString(); 
//this is full string        

time = DateFormat.getTimeInstance(DateFormat.MEDIUM).format(da);
//this is only time

time = DateFormat.getDateInstance(DateFormat.MEDIUM).format(da);
//this is only date

JPA: unidirectional many-to-one and cascading delete

Create a bi-directional relationship, like this:

    private long id;

    @OneToMany(mappedBy = "parent", cascade = CascadeType.REMOVE)
    private Set<Child> children;
}

What is the HTML unicode character for a "tall" right chevron?

From the description and from the reference to the search box in the Ubuntu site, I gather that you actually want an arrowhead character pointing to the right. There are no Unicode characters designed to be used as arrowheads, but some of them may visually resemble an arrowhead.

In particular, if you draw your idea of the character at Shapecatcher.com, you will find many suggestions, such as “>” RIGHT-POINTING ANGLE BRACKET' (U+232A) and “?” MEDIUM RIGHT-POINTING ANGLE BRACKET ORNAMENT (U+276D).

Such characters generally have limited support in fonts, so you would need to carefully write a longish font-family list or to use a downloadable font. See my Guide to using special characters in HTML.

Especially if the intended use is as a symbol in a search box, as the reference to the Ubuntu page suggests, it is questionable whether you should use a character at all. It’s not really an element of text here; rather, a graphic symbol that accompanies text but isn’t a part of it. So why take all the trouble with using a character (safely), when it isn’t really a character?

How to reset or change the passphrase for a GitHub SSH key?

Passphrases can be added to an existing key or changed without regenerating the key pair:
Note This will work if keys doesn't had a passphrase, otherwise you'll get this: Enter old passphrase: then Bad passphrase

$ ssh-keygen -p
Enter file in which the key is (/Users/tekkub/.ssh/id_rsa):
Key has comment '/Users/tekkub/.ssh/id_rsa'
Enter new passphrase (empty for no passphrase):
Enter same passphrase again:
Your identification has been saved with the new passphrase.

If your key had passphrase then, There's no way to recover the passphrase for a pair of SSH keys. In that case you have to create a new pair of SSH keys.

  1. Generating SSH keys

Read file line by line using ifstream in C++

First, make an ifstream:

#include <fstream>
std::ifstream infile("thefile.txt");

The two standard methods are:

  1. Assume that every line consists of two numbers and read token by token:

    int a, b;
    while (infile >> a >> b)
    {
        // process pair (a,b)
    }
    
  2. Line-based parsing, using string streams:

    #include <sstream>
    #include <string>
    
    std::string line;
    while (std::getline(infile, line))
    {
        std::istringstream iss(line);
        int a, b;
        if (!(iss >> a >> b)) { break; } // error
    
        // process pair (a,b)
    }
    

You shouldn't mix (1) and (2), since the token-based parsing doesn't gobble up newlines, so you may end up with spurious empty lines if you use getline() after token-based extraction got you to the end of a line already.

How to have a default option in Angular.js select box

Try this:

HTML

<select 
    ng-model="selectedOption" 
    ng-options="option.name for option in options">
</select>

Javascript

function Ctrl($scope) {
    $scope.options = [
        {
          name: 'Something Cool',
          value: 'something-cool-value'
        }, 
        {
          name: 'Something Else',
          value: 'something-else-value'
        }
    ];

    $scope.selectedOption = $scope.options[0];
}

Plunker here.

If you really want to set the value that will be bound to the model, then change the ng-options attribute to

ng-options="option.value as option.name for option in options"

and the Javascript to

...
$scope.selectedOption = $scope.options[0].value;

Another Plunker here considering the above.

"&" meaning after variable type

It means you're passing the variable by reference.

In fact, in a declaration of a type, it means reference, just like:

int x = 42;
int& y = x;

declares a reference to x, called y.

What is the difference between Integer and int in Java?

int is a primitive type that represent an integer. whereas Integer is an Object that wraps int. The Integer object gives you more functionality, such as converting to hex, string, etc.

You can also use OOP concepts with Integer. For example, you can use Integer for generics (i.e. Collection<Integer>).

UTF-8: General? Bin? Unicode?

You should also be aware of the fact, that with utf8_general_ci when using a varchar field as unique or primary index inserting 2 values like 'a' and 'á' would give a duplicate key error.

How to create a hidden <img> in JavaScript?

This question is vague, but if you want to make the image with Javascript. It is simple.

function loadImages(src) {
  if (document.images) {
    img1 = new Image();
    img1.src = src;
}
loadImages("image.jpg");

The image will be requested but until you show it it will never be displayed. great for pre loading images you expect to be requests but delaying it until the document is loaded.

Example

CSS: create white glow around image

Use simple CSS3 (not supported in IE<9)

img
{
    box-shadow: 0px 0px 5px #fff;
}

This will put a white glow around every image in your document, use more specific selectors to choose which images you'd like the glow around. You can change the color of course :)

If you're worried about the users that don't have the latest versions of their browsers, use this:

img
{
-moz-box-shadow: 0 0 5px #fff;
-webkit-box-shadow: 0 0 5px #fff;
box-shadow: 0px 0px 5px #fff;
}

For IE you can use a glow filter (not sure which browsers support it)

img
{
    filter:progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Glow(Color=white,Strength=5);
}

Play with the settings to see what suits you :)

Ternary operation in CoffeeScript

Coffeescript doesn't support javascript ternary operator. Here is the reason from the coffeescript author:

I love ternary operators just as much as the next guy (probably a bit more, actually), but the syntax isn't what makes them good -- they're great because they can fit an if/else on a single line as an expression.

Their syntax is just another bit of mystifying magic to memorize, with no analogue to anything else in the language. The result being equal, I'd much rather have if/elses always look the same (and always be compiled into an expression).

So, in CoffeeScript, even multi-line ifs will compile into ternaries when appropriate, as will if statements without an else clause:

if sunny   
  go_outside() 
else   
  read_a_book().

if sunny then go_outside() else read_a_book()

Both become ternaries, both can be used as expressions. It's consistent, and there's no new syntax to learn. So, thanks for the suggestion, but I'm closing this ticket as "wontfix".

Please refer to the github issue: https://github.com/jashkenas/coffeescript/issues/11#issuecomment-97802

jQuery check if Cookie exists, if not create it

I was having alot of trouble with this because I was using:

if($.cookie('token') === null || $.cookie('token') === "")
{
      //no cookie
}
else
{
     //have cookie
}

The above was ALWAYS returning false, no matter what I did in terms of setting the cookie or not. From my tests it seems that the object is therefore undefined before it's set so adding the following to my code fixed it.

if($.cookie('token') === null || $.cookie('token') === "" 
    || $.(cookie('token') === "null" || $.cookie('token') === undefined)
{
      //no cookie
}
else
{
     //have cookie
}

Export a list into a CSV or TXT file in R

You can simply wrap your list as a data.frame (data.frame is in fact a special kind of list). Here is an example:

mylist = list() 
mylist[["a"]] = 1:10 
mylist[["b"]] = letters[1:10]
write.table(as.data.frame(mylist),file="mylist.csv", quote=F,sep=",",row.names=F)

or alternatively you can use write.csv (a wrapper around write.table). For the conversion of the list , you can use both as.data.frame(mylist) and data.frame(mylist).

To help in making a reproducible example, you can use functions like dput on your data.

Twitter Bootstrap onclick event on buttons-radio

For Bootstrap 3 the default radio/button-group structure is :

<div class="btn-group" data-toggle="buttons">
    <label class="btn btn-primary">
        <input type="radio" name="options" id="option1"> Option 1
    </label>
    <label class="btn btn-primary">
        <input type="radio" name="options" id="option2"> Option 2
    </label>
    <label class="btn btn-primary">
        <input type="radio" name="options" id="option3"> Option 3
    </label>
</div>

And you can select the active one like this:

$('.btn-primary').on('click', function(){
    alert($(this).find('input').attr('id'));
}); 

parse html string with jquery

I'm not a 100% sure, but won't

$(data)

produce a jquery object with a DOM for that data, not connected anywhere? Or if it's already parsed as a DOM, you could just go $("#myImg", data), or whatever selector suits your needs.

EDIT
Rereading your question it appears your 'data' is already a DOM, which means you could just go (assuming there's only an img in your DOM, otherwise you'll need a more precise selector)

$("img", data).attr ("src")

if you want to access the src-attribute. If your data is just text, it would probably work to do

$("img", $(data)).attr ("src")

How to call getClass() from a static method in Java?

The Answer

Just use TheClassName.class instead of getClass().

Declaring Loggers

Since this gets so much attention for a specific usecase--to provide an easy way to insert log declarations--I thought I'd add my thoughts on that. Log frameworks often expect the log to be constrained to a certain context, say a fully-qualified class name. So they are not copy-pastable without modification. Suggestions for paste-safe log declarations are provided in other answers, but they have downsides such as inflating bytecode or adding runtime introspection. I don't recommend these. Copy-paste is an editor concern, so an editor solution is most appropriate.

In IntelliJ, I recommend adding a Live Template:

  • Use "log" as the abbreviation
  • Use private static final org.slf4j.Logger logger = org.slf4j.LoggerFactory.getLogger($CLASS$.class); as the template text.
  • Click Edit Variables and add CLASS using the expression className()
  • Check the boxes to reformat and shorten FQ names.
  • Change the context to Java: declaration.

Now if you type log<tab> it'll automatically expand to

private static final Logger logger = LoggerFactory.getLogger(ClassName.class);

And automatically reformat and optimize the imports for you.

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

filter: blur(0)
transition: filter .3s ease-out

Use of var keyword in C#

var is essential for anonymous types (as pointed out in one of the previous responses to this question).

I would categorise all other discussion of its pros and cons as "religious war". By that I mean that a comparison and discussion of the relative merits of...

var i = 5;
int j = 5;

SomeType someType = new SomeType();
var someType = new SomeType();

...is entirely subjective.

Implicit typing means that there is no runtime penalty for any variable being declared using the var keyword, so it comes down to being a debate about what makes the developers happy.

How to compute the sum and average of elements in an array?

I am just building on Abdennour TOUMI's answer. here are the reasons why:

1.) I agree with Brad, I do not think it is a good idea to extend object that we did not create.

2.) array.length is exactly reliable in javascript, I prefer Array.reduce beacuse a=[1,3];a[1000]=5; , now a.length would return 1001.

function getAverage(arry){
    // check if array
    if(!(Object.prototype.toString.call(arry) === '[object Array]')){
        return 0;
    }
    var sum = 0, count = 0; 
    sum = arry.reduce(function(previousValue, currentValue, index, array) {
        if(isFinite(currentValue)){
            count++;
            return previousValue+ parseFloat(currentValue);
        }
        return previousValue;
    }, sum);
    return count ? sum / count : 0; 
};

Evaluate a string with a switch in C++

Switch value must have an Integral type. Also, since you know that differenciating character is in position 7, you could switch on a.at(7). But you are not sure the user entered 8 characters. He may as well have done some typing mistake. So you are to surround your switch statement within a Try Catch. Something with this flavour

#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
int main() {
    string a;
    cin>>a;

    try
    {
    switch (a.at(7)) {
    case '1':
        cout<<"It pressed number 1"<<endl;
        break;
    case '2':
        cout<<"It pressed number 2"<<endl;
        break;
    case '3':
        cout<<"It pressed number 3"<<endl;
        break;
    default:
        cout<<"She put no choice"<<endl;
        break;
    }
    catch(...)
    {

    }
    }
    return 0;
}

The default clause in switch statement captures cases when users input is at least 8 characters, but not in {1,2,3}.

Alternatively, you can switch on values in an enum.

EDIT

Fetching 7th character with operator[]() does not perform bounds check, so that behavior would be undefined. we use at() from std::string, which is bounds-checked, as explained here.

How to display an unordered list in two columns?

Modern Browsers

leverage the css3 columns module to support what you are looking for.

http://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css3_pr_columns.asp

CSS:

ul {
  columns: 2;
  -webkit-columns: 2;
  -moz-columns: 2;
}

http://jsfiddle.net/HP85j/8/

Legacy Browsers

Unfortunately for IE support you will need a code solution that involves JavaScript and dom manipulation. This means that anytime the contents of the list changes you will need to perform the operation for reordering the list into columns and reprinting. The solution below uses jQuery for brevity.

http://jsfiddle.net/HP85j/19/

HTML:

<div>
    <ul class="columns" data-columns="2">
        <li>A</li>
        <li>B</li>
        <li>C</li>
        <li>D</li>
        <li>E</li>
        <li>F</li>
        <li>G</li>
    </ul>
</div>

JavaScript:

(function($){
    var initialContainer = $('.columns'),
        columnItems = $('.columns li'),
        columns = null,
        column = 1; // account for initial column
    function updateColumns(){
        column = 0;
        columnItems.each(function(idx, el){
            if (idx !== 0 && idx > (columnItems.length / columns.length) + (column * idx)){
                column += 1;
            }
            $(columns.get(column)).append(el);
        });
    }
    function setupColumns(){
        columnItems.detach();
        while (column++ < initialContainer.data('columns')){
            initialContainer.clone().insertBefore(initialContainer);
            column++;
        }
        columns = $('.columns');
    }

    $(function(){
        setupColumns();
        updateColumns();
    });
})(jQuery);

CSS:

.columns{
    float: left;
    position: relative;
    margin-right: 20px;
}

EDIT:

As pointed out below this will order the columns as follows:

A  E
B  F
C  G
D

while the OP asked for a variant matching the following:

A  B
C  D
E  F
G

To accomplish the variant you simply change the code to the following:

function updateColumns(){
    column = 0;
    columnItems.each(function(idx, el){
        if (column > columns.length){
            column = 0;
        }
        $(columns.get(column)).append(el);
        column += 1;
    });
}

Python: AttributeError: '_io.TextIOWrapper' object has no attribute 'split'

You're not reading the file content:

my_file_contents = f.read()

See the docs for further infos

You could, without calling read() or readlines() loop over your file object:

f = open('goodlines.txt')
for line in f:
    print(line)

If you want a list out of it (without \n as you asked)

my_list = [line.rstrip('\n') for line in f]

Is it possible to auto-format your code in Dreamweaver?

Please click on "edit" -> then keyboard shortcuts. It`s straight forward from there. Just select the command from the list, and press the + button.

You will need to create a duplicate set, then select it again from the list. And finally set a keyboard shortcut!

Now, before saving, press the shortcut you just created!

Difference between onCreate() and onStart()?

onCreate() method gets called when activity gets created, and its called only once in whole Activity life cycle. where as onStart() is called when activity is stopped... I mean it has gone to background and its onStop() method is called by the os. onStart() may be called multiple times in Activity life cycle.More details here

Error in contrasts when defining a linear model in R

This is a variation to the answer provided by @Metrics and edited by @Max Ghenis...

l <- sapply(iris, function(x) is.factor(x))
m <- iris[,l]

n <- sapply( m, function(x) { y <- summary(x)/length(x)
len <- length(y[y<0.005 | y>0.995])
cbind(len,t(y))} )

drop_cols_df <- data.frame(var = names(l[l]), 
                           status = ifelse(as.vector(t(n[1,]))==0,"NODROP","DROP" ),
                           level1 = as.vector(t(n[2,])),
                           level2 = as.vector(t(n[3,])))

Here, after identifying factor variables, the second sapply computes what percent of records belong to each level / category of the variable. Then it identifies number of levels over 99.5% or below 0.5% incidence rate (my arbitrary thresholds).

It then goes on to return the number of valid levels and the incidence rate of each level in each categorical variable.

Variables with zero levels crossing the thresholds should not be dropped, while the other should be dropped from the linear model.

The last data frame makes viewing the results easy. It's hard coded for this data set since all factor variables are binomial. This data frame can be made generic easily enough.

How to identify whether a grammar is LL(1), LR(0) or SLR(1)?

LL(1) grammar is Context free unambiguous grammar which can be parsed by LL(1) parsers.

In LL(1)

  • First L stands for scanning input from Left to Right. Second L stands for Left Most Derivation. 1 stands for using one input symbol at each step.

For Checking grammar is LL(1) you can draw predictive parsing table. And if you find any multiple entries in table then you can say grammar is not LL(1).

Their is also short cut to check if the grammar is LL(1) or not . Shortcut Technique

Check if EditText is empty.

Reset identity seed after deleting records in SQL Server

Truncate table is preferred because it clears the records, resets the counter and reclaims the disk space.

Delete and CheckIdent should be used only where foreign keys prevent you from truncating.

python global name 'self' is not defined

If you come from a language such as Java maybe you can make some kind of association between self and this. self will be the reference to the object that called that method but you need to declare a class first. Try:

class MyClass(object)

    def __init__(self)
        #equivalent of constructor, can do initialisation and stuff


    def setavalue(self):
        self.myname = "harry"

    def printaname(self):
        print "Name", self.myname     

def main():
    #Now since you have self as parameter you need to create an object and then call the method for that object.
    my_obj = MyClass()
    my_obj.setavalue() #now my_obj is passed automatically as the self parameter in your method declaration
    my_obj.printname()


if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

How to create global variables accessible in all views using Express / Node.JS?

What I do in order to avoid having a polluted global scope is to create a script that I can include anywhere.

// my-script.js
const ActionsOverTime = require('@bigteam/node-aot').ActionsOverTime;
const config = require('../../config/config').actionsOverTime;
let aotInstance;

(function () {
  if (!aotInstance) {
    console.log('Create new aot instance');
    aotInstance = ActionsOverTime.createActionOverTimeEmitter(config);
  }
})();

exports = aotInstance;

Doing this will only create a new instance once and share that everywhere where the file is included. I am not sure if it is because the variable is cached or of it because of an internal reference mechanism for the application (that might include caching). Any comments on how node resolves this would be great.

Maybe also read this to get the gist on how require works: http://fredkschott.com/post/2014/06/require-and-the-module-system/

How to manually install an artifact in Maven 2?

  -DgroupId=javax.transaction \

  -Dpackaging=jar \
  -Dversion=1.0.1B \
  -Dfile=jta-1.0.1B.jar \

Sort & uniq in Linux shell

Beware! While it's true that "sort -u" and "sort|uniq" are equivalent, any additional options to sort can break the equivalence. Here's an example from the coreutils manual:

For example, 'sort -n -u' inspects only the value of the initial numeric string when checking for uniqueness, whereas 'sort -n | uniq' inspects the entire line.

Similarly, if you sort on key fields, the uniqueness test used by sort won't necessarily look at the entire line anymore. After being bitten by that bug in the past, these days I tend to use "sort|uniq" when writing Bash scripts. I'd rather have higher I/O overhead than run the risk that someone else in the shop won't know about that particular pitfall when they modify my code to add additional sort parameters.

Get characters after last / in url

Here's a beautiful dynamic function I wrote to remove last part of url or path.

/**
 * remove the last directories
 *
 * @param $path the path
 * @param $level number of directories to remove
 *
 * @return string
 */
private function removeLastDir($path, $level)
{
    if(is_int($level) && $level > 0){
        $path = preg_replace('#\/[^/]*$#', '', $path);
        return $this->removeLastDir($path, (int) $level - 1);
    }
    return $path;
}

How do I get some variable from another class in Java?

The code that you have is correct. To get a variable from another class you need to create an instance of the class if the variable is not static, and just call the explicit method to get access to that variable. If you put get and set method like the above is the same of declaring that variable public.

Put the method setNum private and inside the getNum assign the value that you want, you will have "get" access to the variable in that case

Python: For each list element apply a function across the list

If working with Python =2.6 (including 3.x), you can:

from __future__ import division
import operator, itertools

def getmin(alist):
    return min(
        (operator.div(*pair), pair)
        for pair in itertools.product(alist, repeat=2)
    )[1]

getmin([1, 2, 3, 4, 5])

EDIT: Now that I think of it and if I remember my mathematics correctly, this should also give the answer assuming that all numbers are non-negative:

def getmin(alist):
    return min(alist), max(alist)

Adding a column to an existing table in a Rails migration

You can also force to table columns in table using force: true, if you table is already exist.

example:

  create_table "authors", force: true do |t|
    t.string   "name"
    t.datetime "created_at"
    t.datetime "updated_at"
  end
end

http://localhost:50070 does not work HADOOP

If you can open the http://localhost:8088/cluster but can't open http://localhost:50070/. Maybe datanode didn't start-up or namenode didn't formate.

Hadoop version 2.6.4

  • step 1:

check whether your namenode has been formated, if not type:

$ stop-all.sh
$ /path/to/hdfs namenode -format
$ start-all.sh
  • step 2:

check your namenode tmp file path, to see in /tmp, if the namenode directory is in /tmp, you need set tmp path in core-site.xml, because every time when you reboot or start your machine, the files in /tmp will be removed, you need set a tmp dir path.

add the following to it.

<property>
    <name>hadoop.tmp.dir</name>
    <value>/path/to/hadoop/tmp</value>
</property>
  • step 3:

check step 2, stop hadoop and remove the namenode tmp dir in /tmp, then type /path/to/hdfs namenode -format, and start the hadoop. The is also a tmp dir in $HADOOP_HOME

There is a handy 'Connect' option in the 'Instance Actions' menu for the EC2 instance. It will give you the exact SSH command to execute with the correct url for the instance. Jabley's overall instructions are correct.

How can I list all tags for a Docker image on a remote registry?

I've managed to get it working using curl:

curl -u <username>:<password> https://myrepo.example/v1/repositories/<username>/<image_name>/tags

Note that image_name should not contain user details etc. For example if you're pushing image named myrepo.example/username/x then image_name should be x.

How to include a Font Awesome icon in React's render()

If you are new to React JS and using create-react-app cli command to create the application, then run the following NPM command to include the latest version of font-awesome.

npm install --save font-awesome

import font-awesome to your index.js file. Just add below line to your index.js file

import '../node_modules/font-awesome/css/font-awesome.min.css'; 

or

import 'font-awesome/css/font-awesome.min.css';

Don't forget to use className as attribute

 render: function() {
    return <div><i className="fa fa-spinner fa-spin">no spinner but why</i></div>;
}

Loop through a date range with JavaScript

Based on Tom Gullen´s answer.

var start = new Date("02/05/2013");
var end = new Date("02/10/2013");


var loop = new Date(start);
while(loop <= end){
   alert(loop);           

   var newDate = loop.setDate(loop.getDate() + 1);
   loop = new Date(newDate);

How to remove leading whitespace from each line in a file

Here you go:

Or:

user@host:~$ sed 's/^[\t ]*//g' < file-in.txt > file-out.txt

Eclipse Java Missing required source folder: 'src'

I think it's because of the .classpath getting saved with the deleted source folder configuration.

  1. Create the missing folder [ 'src' in your case] manually inside the root of the project. When I say manually, I meant outside Eclipse, using the file explorer.

  2. Then, come back to eclipse and refresh the project. Now, the error saying it's already there will be gone.

  3. Now, Right click on the project > Build Path > Configure Build path. It should take us to the Java build path side menu.

  4. Make sure we are on the 'Source' tab. Delete the source folder causing the problem. Now, maybe the folder might show up in the project structure and you may delete that too.

Adding images to an HTML document with javascript

This works:

var img = document.createElement('img');
img.src = 'img/eqp/' + this.apparel + '/' + this.facing + '_idle.png';
document.getElementById('gamediv').appendChild(img)

Or using jQuery:

$('<img/>')
.attr('src','img/eqp/' + this.apparel + '/' + this.facing + '_idle.png')
.appendTo('#gamediv');

How to push local changes to a remote git repository on bitbucket

I'm with Git downloaded from https://git-scm.com/ and set up ssh follow to the answer for instructions https://stackoverflow.com/a/26130250/4058484.

Once the generated public key is verified in my Bitbucket account, and by referring to the steps as explaned on http://www.bohyunkim.net/blog/archives/2518 I found that just 'git push' is working:

What is the difference between DAO and Repository patterns?

Repository is more abstract domain oriented term that is part of Domain Driven Design, it is part of your domain design and a common language, DAO is a technical abstraction for data access technology, repository is concerns only with managing existing data and factories for creation of data.

Error: Cannot invoke an expression whose type lacks a call signature

"Cannot invoke an expression whose type lacks a call signature."

In your code :

class Post extends Component {
  public toggleBody: string;

  constructor() {
    this.toggleBody = this.setProp('showFullBody');
  }

  public showMore(): boolean {
    return this.toggleBody(true);
  }

  public showLess(): boolean {
    return this.toggleBody(false);
  }
}

You have public toggleBody: string;. You cannot call a string as a function. Hence errors on : this.toggleBody(true); and this.toggleBody(false);

Use virtualenv with Python with Visual Studio Code in Ubuntu

I was able to use the workspace setting that other people on this page have been asking for.

In Preferences, ?+P, search for python.pythonPath in the search bar.

You should see something like:

// Path to Python, you can use a custom version of Python by modifying this setting to include the full path.
"python.pythonPath": "python"

Then click on the WORKSPACE SETTINGS tab on the right side of the window. This will make it so the setting is only applicable to the workspace you're in.

Afterwards, click on the pencil icon next to "python.pythonPath". This should copy the setting over the workspace settings.

Change the value to something like:

"python.pythonPath": "${workspaceFolder}/venv"

Downloading images with node.js

I ran into this problem some days ago, for a pure NodeJS answer I would suggest using Stream to merge the chunks together.

var http = require('http'),                                                
    Stream = require('stream').Transform,                                  
    fs = require('fs');                                                    

var url = 'http://www.google.com/images/srpr/logo11w.png';                    

http.request(url, function(response) {                                        
  var data = new Stream();                                                    

  response.on('data', function(chunk) {                                       
    data.push(chunk);                                                         
  });                                                                         

  response.on('end', function() {                                             
    fs.writeFileSync('image.png', data.read());                               
  });                                                                         
}).end();

The newest Node versions won't work well with binary strings, so merging chunks with strings is not a good idea when working with binary data.

*Just be careful when using 'data.read()', it will empty the stream for the next 'read()' operation. If you want to use it more than once, store it somewhere.

How to dynamically change header based on AngularJS partial view?

Note that you can also set the title directly with javascript, i.e.,

$window.document.title = someTitleYouCreated;

This does not have data binding, but it suffices when putting ng-app in the <html> tag is problematic. (For example, using JSP templates where <head> is defined in exactly one place, yet you have more than one app.)

How to insert tab character when expandtab option is on in Vim

You can disable expandtab option from within Vim as below:

:set expandtab!

or

:set noet

PS: And set it back when you are done with inserting tab, with "set expandtab" or "set et"

PS: If you have tab set equivalent to 4 spaces in .vimrc (softtabstop), you may also like to set it to 8 spaces in order to be able to insert a tab by pressing tab key once instead of twice (set softtabstop=8).

Reading entire html file to String?

I prefers using Guava :

String content = Files.toString(file);

Apache Spark: The number of cores vs. the number of executors

From the excellent resources available at RStudio's Sparklyr package page:

SPARK DEFINITIONS:

It may be useful to provide some simple definitions for the Spark nomenclature:

Node: A server

Worker Node: A server that is part of the cluster and are available to run Spark jobs

Master Node: The server that coordinates the Worker nodes.

Executor: A sort of virtual machine inside a node. One Node can have multiple Executors.

Driver Node: The Node that initiates the Spark session. Typically, this will be the server where sparklyr is located.

Driver (Executor): The Driver Node will also show up in the Executor list.

WCF Error "This could be due to the fact that the server certificate is not configured properly with HTTP.SYS in the HTTPS case"

Our applications were recently forced off of SSL to TLS via a network appliance (F5) OS update. We fixed this error by re-generating the self-signed certs. Hope this helps someone in the future to resolve the issue as we spent multiple maintenance windows troubleshooting before arriving at the solution.

How can I undo a mysql statement that I just executed?

For some instrutions, like ALTER TABLE, this is not possible with MySQL, even with transactions (1 and 2).

Why do I get the error "Unsafe code may only appear if compiling with /unsafe"?

To use unsafe code blocks, open the properties for the project, go to the Build tab and check the Allow unsafe code checkbox, then compile and run.

class myclass
{
     public static void Main(string[] args)
     {
         unsafe
         {
             int iData = 10;
             int* pData = &iData;
             Console.WriteLine("Data is " + iData);
             Console.WriteLine("Address is " + (int)pData);
         }
     }
}

Output:

Data is 10
Address is 1831848

How do I format a String in an email so Outlook will print the line breaks?

Because it is a query, only percent escaped characters work, means %0A gives you a line break. For example,

&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:[email protected]?Subject=TEST&amp;amp;body=Hi there,%0A%0AHow are you?%0A%0AThanks&quot;&gt;email to me&lt;/a&gt;

ADB device list is empty

This helped me at the end:

Quick guide:

  • Download Google USB Driver

  • Connect your device with Android Debugging enabled to your PC

  • Open Device Manager of Windows from System Properties.

  • Your device should appear under Other devices listed as something like Android ADB Interface or 'Android Phone' or similar. Right-click that and click on Update Driver Software...

  • Select Browse my computer for driver software

  • Select Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer

  • Double-click Show all devices

  • Press the Have disk button

  • Browse and navigate to [wherever your SDK has been installed]\google-usb_driver and select android_winusb.inf

  • Select Android ADB Interface from the list of device types.

  • Press the Yes button

  • Press the Install button

  • Press the Close button

Now you've got the ADB driver set up correctly. Reconnect your device if it doesn't recognize it already.

Use a URL to link to a Google map with a marker on it

Django gives Bad Request (400) when DEBUG = False

With DEBUG = False in you settings file, you also need ALLOWED_HOST list set up. Try including ALLOWED_HOST = ['127.0.0.1', 'localhost', 'www.yourdomain.com']

Otherwise you might receive a Bad Request(400) error from django.

How to create materialized views in SQL Server?

When indexed view is not an option, and quick updates are not necessary, you can create a hack cache table:

select * into cachetablename from myviewname
alter table cachetablename add primary key (columns)
-- OR alter table cachetablename add rid bigint identity primary key
create index...

then sp_rename view/table or change any queries or other views that reference it to point to the cache table.

schedule daily/nightly/weekly/whatnot refresh like

begin transaction
truncate table cachetablename
insert into cachetablename select * from viewname
commit transaction

NB: this will eat space, also in your tx logs. Best used for small datasets that are slow to compute. Maybe refactor to eliminate "easy but large" columns first into an outer view.

SQL: Combine Select count(*) from multiple tables

You can combine your counts like you were doing before, but then you could sum them all up a number of ways, one of which is shown below:

SELECT SUM(A) 
FROM
(
    SELECT 1 AS A
    UNION ALL 
    SELECT 1 AS A
    UNION ALL
    SELECT 1 AS A
    UNION ALL
    SELECT 1 AS A
) AS B

tsc is not recognized as internal or external command

If you want to run the tsc command from the integrated terminal with the TypeScript module installed locally, you can add the following to your .vscode\settings.json file.

{
  "terminal.integrated.env.windows": { "PATH": "${workspaceFolder}\\node_modules\\.bin;${env:PATH}" }
}

This will prepend the locally installed node module's binary/executable directory (where tsc.cmd is located) to the $env.PATH variable.

first-child and last-child with IE8

If your table is only 2 columns across, you can easily reach the second td with the adjacent sibling selector, which IE8 does support along with :first-child:

.editor td:first-child
{
    width: 150px; 
}

.editor td:first-child + td input,
.editor td:first-child + td textarea
{
    width: 500px;
    padding: 3px 5px 5px 5px;
    border: 1px solid #CCC; 
}

Otherwise, you'll have to use a JS selector library like jQuery, or manually add a class to the last td, as suggested by James Allardice.

What is the difference between @Inject and @Autowired in Spring Framework? Which one to use under what condition?

Here is a blog post that compares @Resource, @Inject, and @Autowired, and appears to do a pretty comprehensive job.

From the link:

With the exception of test 2 & 7 the configuration and outcomes were identical. When I looked under the hood I determined that the ‘@Autowired’ and ‘@Inject’ annotation behave identically. Both of these annotations use the ‘AutowiredAnnotationBeanPostProcessor’ to inject dependencies. ‘@Autowired’ and ‘@Inject’ can be used interchangeable to inject Spring beans. However the ‘@Resource’ annotation uses the ‘CommonAnnotationBeanPostProcessor’ to inject dependencies. Even though they use different post processor classes they all behave nearly identically. Below is a summary of their execution paths.

Tests 2 and 7 that the author references are 'injection by field name' and 'an attempt at resolving a bean using a bad qualifier', respectively.

The Conclusion should give you all the information you need.

Apply function to pandas groupby

Try:

g = pd.DataFrame(['A','B','A','C','D','D','E'])

# Group by the contents of column 0 
gg = g.groupby(0)  

# Create a DataFrame with the counts of each letter
histo = gg.apply(lambda x: x.count())

# Add a new column that is the count / total number of elements    
histo[1] = histo.astype(np.float)/len(g) 

print histo

Output:

   0         1
0             
A  2  0.285714
B  1  0.142857
C  1  0.142857

Importing large sql file to MySql via command line

You can import .sql file using the standard input like this:

mysql -u <user> -p<password> <dbname> < file.sql

Note: There shouldn't space between <-p> and <password>

Reference: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/mysql-batch-commands.html

Note for suggested edits: This answer was slightly changed by suggested edits to use inline password parameter. I can recommend it for scripts but you should be aware that when you write password directly in the parameter (-p<password>) it may be cached by a shell history revealing your password to anyone who can read the history file. Whereas -p asks you to input password by standard input.

How to run two jQuery animations simultaneously?

I believe I found the solution in the jQuery documentation:

Animates all paragraph to a left style of 50 and opacity of 1 (opaque, visible), completing the animation within 500 milliseconds. It also will do it outside the queue, meaning it will automatically start without waiting for its turn.

$( "p" ).animate({
  left: "50px", opacity: 1
}, { duration: 500, queue: false }); 

simply add: queue: false.

Drop data frame columns by name

Beyond select(-one_of(drop_col_names)) demonstrated in earlier answers, there are a couple other dplyr options for dropping columns using select() that do not involve defining all the specific column names (using the dplyr starwars sample data for some variety in column names):

library(dplyr)
starwars %>% 
  select(-(name:mass)) %>%        # the range of columns from 'name' to 'mass'
  select(-contains('color')) %>%  # any column name that contains 'color'
  select(-starts_with('bi')) %>%  # any column name that starts with 'bi'
  select(-ends_with('er')) %>%    # any column name that ends with 'er'
  select(-matches('^f.+s$')) %>%  # any column name matching the regex pattern
  select_if(~!is.list(.)) %>%     # not by column name but by data type
  head(2)

# A tibble: 2 x 2
homeworld species
  <chr>     <chr>  
1 Tatooine  Human  
2 Tatooine  Droid 

If you need to drop a column that may or may not exist in the data frame, here's a slight twist using select_if() that unlike using one_of() will not throw an Unknown columns: warning if the column name does not exist. In this example 'bad_column' is not a column in the data frame:

starwars %>% 
  select_if(!names(.) %in% c('height', 'mass', 'bad_column'))

How to remove all files from directory without removing directory in Node.js

To remove all files from a directory, first you need to list all files in the directory using fs.readdir, then you can use fs.unlink to remove each file. Also fs.readdir will give just the file names, you need to concat with the directory name to get the full path.

Here is an example

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

const directory = 'test';

fs.readdir(directory, (err, files) => {
  if (err) throw err;

  for (const file of files) {
    fs.unlink(path.join(directory, file), err => {
      if (err) throw err;
    });
  }
});

Update node version 14

There is a recursive flag that you can use in rmdir to remove all the files recursively. See nodejs docs for more information.

const fs = require('fs').promises;

const directory = 'test';

fs.rmdir(directory, { recursive: true })
  .then(() => console.log('directory removed!'));

In PHP how can you clear a WSDL cache?

Edit your php.ini file, search for soap.wsdl_cache_enabled and set the value to 0

[soap]
; Enables or disables WSDL caching feature.
; http://php.net/soap.wsdl-cache-enabled
soap.wsdl_cache_enabled=0

How to change Android version and code version number?

I didn't get the other answers to work in Android Studio 1.4. But this worked: click on your app name to the left below the main ribbon. It will show a list of files. Open AndroidManifest.xml and change the version code and version number there.

An error has occured. Please see log file - eclipse juno

Here's what I did to solve this:

  • I removed workspace/.metadata
  • run eclipse as an administrator.

Android WebView Cookie Problem

Don't use your raw url

Instead of:

cookieManager.setCookie(myUrl, cookieString); 

use it like this:

cookieManager.setCookie("your url host", cookieString); 

Error in Process.Start() -- The system cannot find the file specified

I had the same problem, but none of the solutions worked for me, because the message The system cannot find the file specified can be misleading in some special cases.

In my case, I use Notepad++ in combination with the registry redirect for notepad.exe. Unfortunately my path to Notepad++ in the registry was wrong.

So in fact the message The system cannot find the file specified was telling me, that it cannot find the application (Notepad++) associated with the file type(*.txt), not the file itself.

Visual Studio Code - Convert spaces to tabs

In my case, the problem was JS-CSS-HTML Formatter extension installed after january update. The default indent_char property is space. I uninstalled it and the weird behavior stops.

How to get the exact local time of client?

You can also make your own nodeJS endpoint, publish it with something like heroku, and access it

require("http").createServer(function (q,r) {
    r.setHeader("accees-control-allow-origin","*")
    r.end(Date.now())
}).listen(process.env.PORT || 80)

Then just access it on JS

fetch ("http://someGerokuApp")
.then(r=>r.text)
. then (r=>console.log(r))

This will still be relative to whatever computer the node app is hosted on, but perhaps you can get the location somehow and provide different endpoints fit the other timezones based on the current one (for example if the server happens to be in California then for a new York timezone just add 1000*60*60*3 milliseconds to Date.now() to add 3 hours)

For simplicity, if it's possible to get the location from the server and send it as a response header, you can just do the calculations for the different time zones in the client side

In fact using heroku they allow you to specify a region that it should be deployed at https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/regions#specifying-a-region you can use this as reference..

EDIT just realized the timezone is in the date string itself, can just pay the whole thing as a header to be read by the client

require("http").createServer(function (q,r) {
    var d= new Date()
    r.setHeader("accees-control-allow-origin","*")
    r.setHeader("zman", d.toString())
    r.end(d.getTime())
}).listen(process.env.PORT || 80)

How to import a module given its name as string?

The below piece worked for me:

>>>import imp; 
>>>fp, pathname, description = imp.find_module("/home/test_module"); 
>>>test_module = imp.load_module("test_module", fp, pathname, description);
>>>print test_module.print_hello();

if you want to import in shell-script:

python -c '<above entire code in one line>'

How can I clear the input text after clicking

To remove the default text, on clicking the element:

$('input:text').click(
    function(){
        $(this).val('');
    });

I would, though, suggest using focus() instead:

$('input:text').focus(
    function(){
        $(this).val('');
    });

Which responds to keyboard events too (the tab key, for example). Also, you could use the placeholder attribute in the element:

<input type="text" placeholder="default text" />

Which will clear on focus of the element, and reappear if the element remains empty/user doesn't input anything.

ORDER BY items must appear in the select list if SELECT DISTINCT is specified

Try this:

ORDER BY 1, 2

OR

ORDER BY rsc.RadioServiceCodeId, rsc.RadioServiceCode + ' - ' + rsc.RadioService

How many bytes is unsigned long long?

Use the operator sizeof, it will give you the size of a type expressed in byte. One byte is eight bits. See the following program:

#include <iostream>

int main(int,char**)
{
 std::cout << "unsigned long long " << sizeof(unsigned long long) << "\n";
 std::cout << "unsigned long long int " << sizeof(unsigned long long int) << "\n";
 return 0;
}

How can I add a new column and data to a datatable that already contains data?

Just keep going with your code - you're on the right track:

//call SQL helper class to get initial data 
DataTable dt = sql.ExecuteDataTable("sp_MyProc");

dt.Columns.Add("NewColumn", typeof(System.Int32));

foreach(DataRow row in dt.Rows)
{
    //need to set value to NewColumn column
    row["NewColumn"] = 0;   // or set it to some other value
}

// possibly save your Dataset here, after setting all the new values

How to open a file for both reading and writing?

r+ is the canonical mode for reading and writing at the same time. This is not different from using the fopen() system call since file() / open() is just a tiny wrapper around this operating system call.

Which is best data type for phone number in MySQL and what should Java type mapping for it be?

VARCHAR with probably 15-20 length would be sufficient and would be the best option for the database. Since you would probably require various hyphens and plus signs along with your phone numbers.

Change application's starting activity

Follow to below instructions:

1:) Open your AndroidManifest.xml file.

2:) Go to the activity code which you want to make your main activity like below.

such as i want to make SplashScreen as main activity

<activity
    android:name=".SplashScreen"
    android:screenOrientation="sensorPortrait"
    android:label="City Retails">
</activity>

3:) Now copy the below code in between activity tags same as:

<activity
    android:name=".SplashScreen"
    android:screenOrientation="sensorPortrait"
    android:label="City Retails">
    <intent-filter>
        <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
        <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
    </intent-filter>
</activity>

and also check that newly added lines are not attached with other activity tags.

Why can't I shrink a transaction log file, even after backup?

You may run into this problem if your database is set to autogrow the log & you end up with lots of virtual log files.
Run DBCC LOGINFO('databasename') & look at the last entry, if this is a 2 then your log file wont shrink. Unlike data files virtual log files cannot be moved around inside the log file.

You will need to run BACKUP LOG and DBCC SHRINKFILE several times to get the log file to shrink.

For extra bonus points run DBBC LOGINFO in between log & shirks

How do I use a C# Class Library in a project?

  1. Add a reference to your library
  2. Import the namespace
  3. Consume the types in your library

Tick symbol in HTML/XHTML

Why don't you use the HTML input checkbox element in read only mode

<input type="checkbox" disabled="disabled" /> and
<input type="checkbox" checked="checked" disabled="disabled" />

I assume this will work on all browsers.

Android, How can I Convert String to Date?

     import java.text.ParseException;
     import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;
     import java.util.Date;
     public class MyClass 
     {
     public static void main(String args[]) 
     {
     SimpleDateFormat formatter = new SimpleDateFormat("EEE MMM dd HH:mm:ss Z yyyy");

     String dateInString = "Wed Mar 14 15:30:00 EET 2018";

     SimpleDateFormat formatterOut = new SimpleDateFormat("dd MMM yyyy");


     try {

        Date date = formatter.parse(dateInString);
        System.out.println(date);
        System.out.println(formatterOut.format(date));

         } catch (ParseException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
         }
    }
    }

here is your Date object date and the output is :

Wed Mar 14 13:30:00 UTC 2018

14 Mar 2018

The network path was not found

I recently had the same issue. It's more likely that your application can not connect to database server due to the network issues.

In my case I was connected to wrong WiFi.

Add Class to Object on Page Load

This should work:

window.onload = function() {
  document.getElementById('about').className = 'expand';
};

Or if you're using jQuery:

$(function() {
  $('#about').addClass('expand');
});

Combine multiple Collections into a single logical Collection?

If you're using at least Java 8, see my other answer.

If you're already using Google Guava, see Sean Patrick Floyd's answer.

If you're stuck at Java 7 and don't want to include Google Guava, you can write your own (read-only) Iterables.concat() using no more than Iterable and Iterator:

Constant number

public static <E> Iterable<E> concat(final Iterable<? extends E> iterable1,
                                     final Iterable<? extends E> iterable2) {
    return new Iterable<E>() {
        @Override
        public Iterator<E> iterator() {
            return new Iterator<E>() {
                final Iterator<? extends E> iterator1 = iterable1.iterator();
                final Iterator<? extends E> iterator2 = iterable2.iterator();

                @Override
                public boolean hasNext() {
                    return iterator1.hasNext() || iterator2.hasNext();
                }

                @Override
                public E next() {
                    return iterator1.hasNext() ? iterator1.next() : iterator2.next();
                }
            };
        }
    };
}

Variable number

@SafeVarargs
public static <E> Iterable<E> concat(final Iterable<? extends E>... iterables) {
    return concat(Arrays.asList(iterables));
}

public static <E> Iterable<E> concat(final Iterable<Iterable<? extends E>> iterables) {
    return new Iterable<E>() {
        final Iterator<Iterable<? extends E>> iterablesIterator = iterables.iterator();

        @Override
        public Iterator<E> iterator() {
            return !iterablesIterator.hasNext() ? Collections.emptyIterator()
                                                : new Iterator<E>() {
                Iterator<? extends E> iterableIterator = nextIterator();

                @Override
                public boolean hasNext() {
                    return iterableIterator.hasNext();
                }

                @Override
                public E next() {
                    final E next = iterableIterator.next();
                    findNext();
                    return next;
                }

                Iterator<? extends E> nextIterator() {
                    return iterablesIterator.next().iterator();
                }

                Iterator<E> findNext() {
                    while (!iterableIterator.hasNext()) {
                        if (!iterablesIterator.hasNext()) {
                            break;
                        }
                        iterableIterator = nextIterator();
                    }
                    return this;
                }
            }.findNext();
        }
    };
}

Your content must have a ListView whose id attribute is 'android.R.id.list'

Rename the id of your ListView like this,

<ListView android:id="@android:id/list"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent"/>

Since you are using ListActivity your xml file must specify the keyword android while mentioning to a ID.

If you need a custom ListView then instead of Extending a ListActivity, you have to simply extend an Activity and should have the same id without the keyword android.

TypeScript static classes

One possible way to achieve this is to have static instances of a class within another class. For example:

class SystemParams
{
  pageWidth:  number = 8270;
  pageHeight: number = 11690;  
}

class DocLevelParams
{
  totalPages: number = 0;
}

class Wrapper
{ 
  static System: SystemParams = new SystemParams();
  static DocLevel: DocLevelParams = new DocLevelParams();
}

Then parameters can be accessed using Wrapper, without having to declare an instance of it. For example:

Wrapper.System.pageWidth = 1234;
Wrapper.DocLevel.totalPages = 10;

So you get the benefits of the JavaScript type object (as described in the original question) but with the benefits of being able to add the TypeScript typing. Additionally, it avoids having to add 'static' in front of all the parameters in the class.

Checking if a variable is an integer

Basically, an integer n is a power of three, if there exists an integer x such that n == 3x.

So to verify that you can use this functions

def is_power_of_three(n)
  return false unless n.positive?

  n == 3**(Math.log10(n)/Math.log10(3)).to_f.round(2)
end

Finding all the subsets of a set

Too late to answer, but an iterative approach sounds easy here:

1) for a set of n elements, get the value of 2^n. There will be 2^n no.of subsets. (2^n because each element can be either present(1) or absent(0). So for n elements there will be 2^n subsets. ). Eg:
for 3 elements, say {a,b,c}, there will be 2^3=8 subsets

2) Get a binary representation of 2^n. Eg:
8 in binary is 1000

3) Go from 0 to (2^n - 1). In each iteration, for each 1 in the binary representation, form a subset with elements that correspond to the index of that 1 in the binary representation. Eg:

For the elements {a, b, c}
000 will give    {}
001 will give    {c}
010 will give    {b}
011 will give    {b, c}
100 will give    {a}
101 will give    {a, c}
110 will give    {a, b}
111 will give    {a, b, c}

4) Do a union of all the subsets thus found in step 3. Return. Eg:
Simple union of above sets!

sqlite database default time value 'now'

If you want millisecond precision, try this:

CREATE TABLE my_table (
    timestamp DATETIME DEFAULT (strftime('%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%fZ', 'now'))
);

This will save the timestamp as text, though.

Hashmap does not work with int, char

Hashmaps can only use classes, not primitives. This page from programmerinterview.com might be of use in guiding you to finding the answer. To be honest, I haven't figured out the answer to this problem in detail myself.

How to print to the console in Android Studio?

Android has its own method of printing messages (called logs) to the console, known as the LogCat.

When you want to print something to the LogCat, you use a Log object, and specify the category of message.

The main options are:

  • DEBUG: Log.d
  • ERROR: Log.e
  • INFO: Log.i
  • VERBOSE: Log.v
  • WARN: Log.w

You print a message by using a Log statement in your code, like the following example:

Log.d("myTag", "This is my message");

Within Android Studio, you can search for log messages labelled myTag to easily find the message in the LogCat. You can also choose to filter logs by category, such as "Debug" or "Warn".

How to delete multiple files at once in Bash on Linux?

A wild card would work nicely for this, although to be safe it would be best to make the use of the wild card as minimal as possible, so something along the lines of this:

rm -rf abc.log.2012-*

Although from the looks of it, are those just single files? The recursive option should not be necessary if none of those items are directories, so best to not use that, just for safety.

iOS 6 apps - how to deal with iPhone 5 screen size?

All apps will continue to work in the vertically stretched screen from what I could tell in today's presentation. They will be letterboxed or basically the extra 88 points in height would simply be black.

If you only plan to support iOS 6+, then definitely consider using Auto Layout. It removes all fixed layout handling and instead uses constraints to lay things out. Nothing will be hard-coded, and your life will become a lot simpler.

However, if you have to support older iOS's, then it really depends on your application. A majority of applications that use a standard navigation bar, and/or tab bar, could simply expand the content in the middle to use up that extra points. Set the autoresizing mask of the center content to expand in both directions.

view.autoresizingMask = UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleWidth | UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleHeight;

It works great out of the box for table views, however, if your app used pixel-perfect layout for displaying content, then your best bet would be to re-imagine the content so that it can accommodate varying heights.

If that's not a possibility, then the only remaining option is to have two UIs (pre iPhone 5, and iPhone 5).

If that sounds ugly, then you could go with the default letterboxed model where the extra points/pixels just show up black.

Edit

To enable your apps to work with iPhone 5, you need to add a retina version of the launcher image. It should be named [email protected]. And it has to be retina quality - there's no backward compatibility here :)

You could also select this image from within Xcode. Go to the target, and under the Summary section, look for Launch Images. The image has to be 640x1136 pixels in size. Here's a screenshot of where to find it, if that helps.

How to compare oldValues and newValues on React Hooks useEffect?

If you prefer a useEffect replacement approach:

const usePreviousEffect = (fn, inputs = []) => {
  const previousInputsRef = useRef([...inputs])

  useEffect(() => {
    fn(previousInputsRef.current)
    previousInputsRef.current = [...inputs]
  }, inputs)
}

And use it like this:

usePreviousEffect(
  ([prevReceiveAmount, prevSendAmount]) => {
    if (prevReceiveAmount !== receiveAmount) // side effect here
    if (prevSendAmount !== sendAmount) // side effect here
  },
  [receiveAmount, sendAmount]
)

Note that the first time the effect executes, the previous values passed to your fn will be the same as your initial input values. This would only matter to you if you wanted to do something when a value did not change.

Fill username and password using selenium in python

I am new to selenium and I tried all solutions above but they don't work. Finally, I tried this manually by

driver = webdriver.Firefox()
import time

driver.get(url)

time.sleep(20)

print (driver.page_source.encode("utf-8"))

Then I could get contents from web.

Show div on scrollDown after 800px

You've got a few things going on there. One, why a class? Do you actually have multiple of these on the page? The CSS suggests you can't. If not you should use an ID - it's faster to select both in CSS and jQuery:

<div id=bottomMenu>You read it all.</div>

Second you've got a few crazy things going on in that CSS - in particular the z-index is supposed to just be a number, not measured in pixels. It specifies what layer this tag is on, where each higher number is closer to the user (or put another way, on top of/occluding tags with lower z-indexes).

The animation you're trying to do is basically .fadeIn(), so just set the div to display: none; initially and use .fadeIn() to animate it:

$('#bottomMenu').fadeIn(2000);

.fadeIn() works by first doing display: (whatever the proper display property is for the tag), opacity: 0, then gradually ratcheting up the opacity.

Full working example:

http://jsfiddle.net/b9chris/sMyfT/

CSS:

#bottomMenu {
    display: none;
    position: fixed;
    left: 0; bottom: 0;
    width: 100%; height: 60px;
    border-top: 1px solid #000;
    background: #fff;
    z-index: 1;
}

JS:

var $win = $(window);

function checkScroll() {
    if ($win.scrollTop() > 100) {
        $win.off('scroll', checkScroll);
        $('#bottomMenu').fadeIn(2000);
    }
}

$win.scroll(checkScroll);

Java: Add elements to arraylist with FOR loop where element name has increasing number

Put the answers into an array and iterate over it:

List<Answer> answers = new ArrayList<Answer>(3);

for (Answer answer : new Answer[] {answer1, answer2, answer3}) {
    list.add(answer);
}

See João's answer for a much better solution. I'm still leaving my answer here as another option.

When using .net MVC RadioButtonFor(), how do you group so only one selection can be made?

In cases where the name attribute is different it is easiest to control the radio group via JQuery. When an option is selected use JQuery to un-select the other options.

How can I store and retrieve images from a MySQL database using PHP?

Personally i wouldnt store the image in the database, Instead put it in a folder not accessable from outside, and use the database for keeping track of its location. keeps database size down and you can just include it by using PHP. There would be no way without PHP to access that image then

Why does Lua have no "continue" statement?

I've never used Lua before, but I Googled it and came up with this:

http://www.luafaq.org/

Check question 1.26.

This is a common complaint. The Lua authors felt that continue was only one of a number of possible new control flow mechanisms (the fact that it cannot work with the scope rules of repeat/until was a secondary factor.)

In Lua 5.2, there is a goto statement which can be easily used to do the same job.

Creating a file name as a timestamp in a batch job

I frequently use this, and put everything into a single copy command. The following copies example.txt as example_YYYYMMDD_HHMMSS.txt and of course you can modify it to suit your preferred format. The quotes are only necessary if there are any spaces in the filespec. If you want to reuse the exact same date/timestamp, you'd need to store it in a variable.

copy "{path}\example.txt" "{path}\_%date:~10,4%%date:~4,2%%date:~7,2%_%time:~0,2%%time:~3,2%%time:~6,2%.txt"

Can you find all classes in a package using reflection?

Yeah using few API's you can, here is how I like doing it, faced this problem which I was using hibernate core & had to find classes which where annotated with a certain annotation.

Make these an custom annotation using which you will mark which classes you want to be picked up.

import java.lang.annotation.ElementType;
import java.lang.annotation.Retention;
import java.lang.annotation.RetentionPolicy;
import java.lang.annotation.Target;

@Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)
@Target(ElementType.TYPE)
public @interface EntityToBeScanned {

}

Then mark your class with it like

@EntityToBeScanned 
public MyClass{

}

Make this utility class which has the following method

public class ClassScanner {

    public static Set<Class<?>> allFoundClassesAnnotatedWithEntityToBeScanned(){
        Reflections reflections = new Reflections(".*");
        Set<Class<?>> annotated = reflections.getTypesAnnotatedWith(EntityToBeScanned.class);
        return annotated;
    }

}

Call the allFoundClassesAnnotatedWithEntityToBeScanned() method to get a Set of Classes found.

How to find the highest value of a column in a data frame in R?

Here's a dplyr solution:

library(dplyr)

# find max for each column
summarise_each(ozone, funs(max(., na.rm=TRUE)))

# sort by Solar.R, descending
arrange(ozone, desc(Solar.R))

UPDATE: summarise_each() has been deprecated in favour of a more featureful family of functions: mutate_all(), mutate_at(), mutate_if(), summarise_all(), summarise_at(), summarise_if()

Here is how you could do:

# find max for each column
ozone %>%
         summarise_if(is.numeric, funs(max(., na.rm=TRUE)))%>%
         arrange(Ozone)

or

ozone %>%
         summarise_at(vars(1:6), funs(max(., na.rm=TRUE)))%>%
         arrange(Ozone)

Splitting a string into chunks of a certain size

        public static List<string> DevideByStringLength(string text, int chunkSize)

        var numberOfChunks = Math.Ceiling(a);

        Console.WriteLine($"{text.Length} | {numberOfChunks}");

        List<string> chunkList = new List<string>();
        for (int i = 0; i < numberOfChunks; i++)
        {
            string subString = string.Empty;
            if (i == (numberOfChunks - 1))
            {
                subString = text.Substring(chunkSize * i, text.Length - chunkSize * i);
                chunkList.Add(subString);
                continue;
            }
            subString = text.Substring(chunkSize * i, chunkSize);
            chunkList.Add(subString);
        }
        return chunkList;
    }

convert base64 to image in javascript/jquery

This is not exactly the OP's scenario but an answer to those of some of the commenters. It is a solution based on Cordova and Angular 1, which should be adaptable to other frameworks like jQuery. It gives you a Blob from Base64 data which you can store somewhere and reference it from client side javascript / html.

It also answers the original question on how to get an image (file) from the Base 64 data:

The important part is the Base 64 - Binary conversion:

function base64toBlob(base64Data, contentType) {
    contentType = contentType || '';
    var sliceSize = 1024;
    var byteCharacters = atob(base64Data);
    var bytesLength = byteCharacters.length;
    var slicesCount = Math.ceil(bytesLength / sliceSize);
    var byteArrays = new Array(slicesCount);

    for (var sliceIndex = 0; sliceIndex < slicesCount; ++sliceIndex) {
        var begin = sliceIndex * sliceSize;
        var end = Math.min(begin + sliceSize, bytesLength);

        var bytes = new Array(end - begin);
        for (var offset = begin, i = 0; offset < end; ++i, ++offset) {
            bytes[i] = byteCharacters[offset].charCodeAt(0);
        }
        byteArrays[sliceIndex] = new Uint8Array(bytes);
    }
    return new Blob(byteArrays, { type: contentType });
}

Slicing is required to avoid out of memory errors.

Works with jpg and pdf files (at least that's what I tested). Should work with other mimetypes/contenttypes too. Check the browsers and their versions you aim for, they need to support Uint8Array, Blob and atob.

Here's the code to write the file to the device's local storage with Cordova / Android:

...
window.resolveLocalFileSystemURL(cordova.file.externalDataDirectory, function(dirEntry) {

                    // Setup filename and assume a jpg file
                    var filename = attachment.id + "-" + (attachment.fileName ? attachment.fileName : 'image') + "." + (attachment.fileType ? attachment.fileType : "jpg");
                    dirEntry.getFile(filename, { create: true, exclusive: false }, function(fileEntry) {
                        // attachment.document holds the base 64 data at this moment
                        var binary = base64toBlob(attachment.document, attachment.mimetype);
                        writeFile(fileEntry, binary).then(function() {
                            // Store file url for later reference, base 64 data is no longer required
                            attachment.document = fileEntry.nativeURL;

                        }, function(error) {
                            WL.Logger.error("Error writing local file: " + error);
                            reject(error.code);
                        });

                    }, function(errorCreateFile) {
                        WL.Logger.error("Error creating local file: " + JSON.stringify(errorCreateFile));
                        reject(errorCreateFile.code);
                    });

                }, function(errorCreateFS) {
                    WL.Logger.error("Error getting filesystem: " + errorCreateFS);
                    reject(errorCreateFS.code);
                });
...

Writing the file itself:

function writeFile(fileEntry, dataObj) {
    return $q(function(resolve, reject) {
        // Create a FileWriter object for our FileEntry (log.txt).
        fileEntry.createWriter(function(fileWriter) {

            fileWriter.onwriteend = function() {
                WL.Logger.debug(LOG_PREFIX + "Successful file write...");
                resolve();
            };

            fileWriter.onerror = function(e) {
                WL.Logger.error(LOG_PREFIX + "Failed file write: " + e.toString());
                reject(e);
            };

            // If data object is not passed in,
            // create a new Blob instead.
            if (!dataObj) {
                dataObj = new Blob(['missing data'], { type: 'text/plain' });
            }

            fileWriter.write(dataObj);
        });
    })
}

I am using the latest Cordova (6.5.0) and Plugins versions:

I hope this sets everyone here in the right direction.

ValidateAntiForgeryToken purpose, explanation and example

In ASP.Net Core anti forgery token is automatically added to forms, so you don't need to add @Html.AntiForgeryToken() if you use razor form element or if you use IHtmlHelper.BeginForm and if the form's method isn't GET.

It will generate input element for your form similar to this:

<input name="__RequestVerificationToken" type="hidden" 
       value="CfDJ8HSQ_cdnkvBPo-jales205VCq9ISkg9BilG0VXAiNm3Fl5Lyu_JGpQDA4_CLNvty28w43AL8zjeR86fNALdsR3queTfAogif9ut-Zd-fwo8SAYuT0wmZ5eZUYClvpLfYm4LLIVy6VllbD54UxJ8W6FA">

And when user submits form this token is verified on server side if validation is enabled.

[ValidateAntiForgeryToken] attribute can be used against actions. Requests made to actions that have this filter applied are blocked unless the request includes a valid antiforgery token.

[AutoValidateAntiforgeryToken] attribute can be used against controllers. This attribute works identically to the ValidateAntiForgeryToken attribute, except that it doesn't require tokens for requests made using the following HTTP methods: GET HEAD OPTIONS TRACE

Additional information: docs.microsoft.com/aspnet/core/security/anti-request-forgery

Remove items from one list in another

You can use Except:

List<car> list1 = GetTheList();
List<car> list2 = GetSomeOtherList();
List<car> result = list2.Except(list1).ToList();

You probably don't even need those temporary variables:

List<car> result = GetSomeOtherList().Except(GetTheList()).ToList();

Note that Except does not modify either list - it creates a new list with the result.

Creating a comma separated list from IList<string> or IEnumerable<string>

I just solved this issue before happening across this article. My solution goes something like below :

   private static string GetSeparator<T>(IList<T> list, T item)
   {
       return (list.IndexOf(item) == list.Count - 1) ? "" : ", ";
   }

Called like:

List<thing> myThings;
string tidyString;

foreach (var thing in myThings)
{
     tidyString += string.format("Thing {0} is a {1}", thing.id, thing.name) + GetSeparator(myThings, thing);
}

I could also have just as easily expressed as such and would have also been more efficient:

string.Join(“,”, myThings.Select(t => string.format(“Thing {0} is a {1}”, t.id, t.name)); 

JOptionPane Yes or No window

"if(true)" will always be true and it will never make it to the else. If you want it to work correctly you have to do this:

int reply = JOptionPane.showConfirmDialog(null, message, title, JOptionPane.YES_NO_OPTION);
if (reply == JOptionPane.YES_OPTION) {
    JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "HELLO");
} else {
    JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "GOODBYE");
    System.exit(0);
}

Change Volley timeout duration

To handle Android Volley Timeout you need to use RetryPolicy

RetryPolicy

  • Volley provides an easy way to implement your RetryPolicy for your requests.
  • Volley sets default Socket & ConnectionTImeout to 5 secs for all requests.

RetryPolicy is an interface where you need to implement your logic of how you want to retry a particular request when a timeout happens.

It deals with these three parameters

  • Timeout - Specifies Socket Timeout in millis per every retry attempt.
  • Number Of Retries - Number of times retry is attempted.
  • Back Off Multiplier - A multiplier which is used to determine exponential time set to socket for every retry attempt.

For ex. If RetryPolicy is created with these values

Timeout - 3000 ms, Num of Retry Attempts - 2, Back Off Multiplier - 2.0

Retry Attempt 1:

  • time = time + (time * Back Off Multiplier);
  • time = 3000 + 6000 = 9000ms
  • Socket Timeout = time;
  • Request dispatched with Socket Timeout of 9 Secs

Retry Attempt 2:

  • time = time + (time * Back Off Multiplier);
  • time = 9000 + 18000 = 27000ms
  • Socket Timeout = time;
  • Request dispatched with Socket Timeout of 27 Secs

So at the end of Retry Attempt 2 if still Socket Timeout happens Volley would throw a TimeoutError in your UI Error response handler.

//Set a retry policy in case of SocketTimeout & ConnectionTimeout Exceptions. 
//Volley does retry for you if you have specified the policy.
jsonObjRequest.setRetryPolicy(new DefaultRetryPolicy(5000, 
                DefaultRetryPolicy.DEFAULT_MAX_RETRIES, 
                DefaultRetryPolicy.DEFAULT_BACKOFF_MULT));

jQuery: go to URL with target="_blank"

The .ready function is used to insert the attribute once the page has finished loading.

$(document).ready(function() {
     $("class name or id a.your class name").attr({"target" : "_blank"})
})

Adding maven nexus repo to my pom.xml

Why should text files end with a newline?

IMHO, it's a matter of personal style and opinion.

In olden days, I didn't put that newline. A character saved means more speed through that 14.4K modem.

Later, I put that newline so that it's easier to select the final line using shift+downarrow.

Change Screen Orientation programmatically using a Button

A working code:

private void changeScreenOrientation() {
    int orientation = yourActivityName.this.getResources().getConfiguration().orientation;
    if (orientation == Configuration.ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE) {
        setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT);
        showMediaDescription();
    } else {
        setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE);
        hideMediaDescription();
    }
    if (Settings.System.getInt(getContentResolver(),
            Settings.System.ACCELEROMETER_ROTATION, 0) == 1) {
        Handler handler = new Handler();
        handler.postDelayed(new Runnable() {
            @Override
            public void run() {
                setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_SENSOR);
            }
        }, 4000);
    }
}

call this method in your button click

Node.js request CERT_HAS_EXPIRED

I had this problem on production with Heroku and locally while debugging on my macbook pro this morning.

After an hour of debugging, this resolved on its own both locally and on production. I'm not sure what fixed it, so that's a bit annoying. It happened right when I thought I did something, but reverting my supposed fix didn't bring the problem back :(

Interestingly enough, it appears my database service, MongoDb has been having server problems since this morning, so there's a good chance this was related to it.

Pip install - Python 2.7 - Windows 7

pip is installed by default when we install Python in windows. After setting up the environment variables path for python executables, we can run python interpreter from the command line on windows CMD After that, we can directly use the python command with pip option to install further packages as following:-

C:\ python -m pip install python_module_name

This will install the module using pip.

Why are empty catch blocks a bad idea?

An empty catch block is essentially saying "I don't want to know what errors are thrown, I'm just going to ignore them."

It's similar to VB6's On Error Resume Next, except that anything in the try block after the exception is thrown will be skipped.

Which doesn't help when something then breaks.

Filter Java Stream to 1 and only 1 element

Using reduce

This is the simpler and flexible way I found (based on @prunge answer)

Optional<User> user = users.stream()
        .filter(user -> user.getId() == 1)
        .reduce((a, b) -> {
            throw new IllegalStateException("Multiple elements: " + a + ", " + b);
        })

This way you obtain:

  • the Optional - as always with your object or Optional.empty() if not present
  • the Exception (with eventually YOUR custom type/message) if there's more than one element

Accessing session from TWIG template

Save PL/pgSQL output from PostgreSQL to a CSV file

There are several solutions:

1 psql command

psql -d dbname -t -A -F"," -c "select * from users" > output.csv

This has the big advantage that you can using it via SSH, like ssh postgres@host command - enabling you to get

2 postgres copy command

COPY (SELECT * from users) To '/tmp/output.csv' With CSV;

3 psql interactive (or not)

>psql dbname
psql>\f ','
psql>\a
psql>\o '/tmp/output.csv'
psql>SELECT * from users;
psql>\q

All of them can be used in scripts, but I prefer #1.

4 pgadmin but that's not scriptable.

In Injectables you can use class normally that is putting initial code in constructor instead of using ngOnInit(), it works fine.

Jenkins "Console Output" log location in filesystem

You can install this Jenkins Console log plugin to write the log in your workspace as a post build step.

You have to build the plugin yourself and install the plugin manually.

Next, you can add a post build step like that:

With an additional post build step (shell script), you will be able to grep your log.

I hope it helped :)

How to convert a SVG to a PNG with ImageMagick?

This is not perfect but it does the job.

convert -density 1200 -resize 200x200 source.svg target.png

Basically it increases the DPI high enough (just use an educated/safe guess) that resizing is done with adequate quality. I was trying to find a proper solution to this but after a while decided this was good enough for my current need.

Note: Use 200x200! to force the given resolution

Capture close event on Bootstrap Modal

This is very similar to another stackoverflow article, Bind a function to Twitter Bootstrap Modal Close. Assuming you are using some version of Bootstap v3 or v4, you can do something like the following:

$("#myModal").on("hidden.bs.modal", function () {
    // put your default event here
});

How to add a form load event (currently not working)

You got half of the answer! Now that you created the event handler, you need to hook it to the form so that it actually gets called when the form is loading. You can achieve that by doing the following:

 public class ProgramViwer : Form{
  public ProgramViwer()
  {
       InitializeComponent();
       Load += new EventHandler(ProgramViwer_Load);
  }
  private void ProgramViwer_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
  {
       formPanel.Controls.Clear();
       formPanel.Controls.Add(wel);
  }
}

javascript onclick increment number

For those who do NOT want an input box, here's a ready-to-compile example you can check out, which just counts the button clicks, updates them in the text and toggles the font. You could take the value and use it anywhere you see fit.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>


<body>
<p id="demo">JavaScript can change the style of an HTML element.</p>

<script>
   function incrementValue()
        {
            var demo_id = document.getElementById('demo')
            var value = parseInt(demo_id.value, 10);
            // if NaN, set to 0, else, keep the current value
            value = isNaN(value) ? 0 : value;
            value++;
            demo_id.value = value;

            if ((value%2)==0){
                demo_id.innerHTML = value;
                demo_id.style.fontSize = "25px"; 
                demo_id.style.color = "red";
                demo_id.style.backgroundColor = "yellow";   
            } 
            else {
                demo_id.innerHTML = value.toString() ;
                demo_id.style.fontSize = "15px"; 
                demo_id.style.color = "black";
                demo_id.style.backgroundColor = "white";
            }
        }
</script>

<form>
    <input type="button" onclick="incrementValue()" value="Increment Value" />
</form>
</body>

converting list to json format - quick and easy way

I've done something like before using the JavaScript serialization class:

using System.Web.Script.Serialization;

And:

JavaScriptSerializer jss = new JavaScriptSerializer();

string output = jss.Serialize(ListOfMyObject);
Response.Write(output);
Response.Flush();
Response.End();
