How to split one text file into multiple *.txt files?

I agree with @CS Pei, however this didn't work for me:

split -b=1M -d file.txt file

...as the = after -b threw it off. Instead, I simply deleted it and left no space between it and the variable, and used lowercase "m":

split -b1m -d file.txt file

And to append ".txt", we use what @schoon said:

split -b=1m -d file.txt file --additional-suffix=.txt

I had a 188.5MB txt file and I used this command [but with -b5m for 5.2MB files], and it returned 35 split files all of which were txt files and 5.2MB except the last which was 5.0MB. Now, since I wanted my lines to stay whole, I wanted to split the main file every 1 million lines, but the split command didn't allow me to even do -100000 let alone "-1000000, so large numbers of lines to split will not work.

difference between primary key and unique key

Unique key :- It should be used when you have to give unique value.In the case of unique key it means null values are also allowed.Unique keys are those keys which are unique and non similar in that column like for example your pet name.it can be nothing like null and if you are asking in context of database then it must be noted that every null is different from another null in the database.EXCEPT-SQL Server where null=null is true


primary key :- It should be used when you have to give uniquely identify a row.primary is key which unique for every row in a database constraint is that it doesn't allow null in it.so, you might have seen that the database have a column which is auto increment and it is the primary key of the table. plus it can be used as a foreign key in another table.example can be orderId on a order Table,billId in a bill Table.

now coming back to situation when to use it:-

1) primary key in the column which can not be null in the table and you are using as foreign key in another table for creating relationship

2) unique key in table where it doesn't affect in table or in the whole database whether you take the null for the particular column like snacks in the restaurant it is possible you don't take snacks in a restaurant

How to get name of dataframe column in pyspark?

I found the answer is very very simple...

// It is in java, but it should be same in pyspark
Column col = ds.col("colName"); //the column object
String theNameOftheCol = col.toString();

The variable "theNameOftheCol" is "colName"

What is the Record type in typescript?

A Record lets you create a new type from a Union. The values in the Union are used as attributes of the new type.

For example, say I have a Union like this:

type CatNames = "miffy" | "boris" | "mordred";

Now I want to create an object that contains information about all the cats, I can create a new type using the values in the CatName Union as keys.

type CatList = Record<CatNames, {age: number}>

If I want to satisfy this CatList, I must create an object like this:

const cats:CatList = {
  miffy: { age:99 },
  boris: { age:16 },
  mordred: { age:600 }
}

You get very strong type safety:

  • If I forget a cat, I get an error.
  • If I add a cat that's not allowed, I get an error.
  • If I later change CatNames, I get an error. This is especially useful because CatNames is likely imported from another file, and likely used in many places.

Real-world React example.

I used this recently to create a Status component. The component would receive a status prop, and then render an icon. I've simplified the code quite a lot here for illustrative purposes

I had a union like this:

type Statuses = "failed" | "complete";

I used this to create an object like this:

const icons: Record<
  Statuses,
  { iconType: IconTypes; iconColor: IconColors }
> = {
  failed: {
    iconType: "warning",
    iconColor: "red"
  },
  complete: {
    iconType: "check",
    iconColor: "green"
  };

I could then render by destructuring an element from the object into props, like so:

const Status = ({status}) => <Icon {...icons[status]} />

If the Statuses union is later extended or changed, I know my Status component will fail to compile and I'll get an error that I can fix immediately. This allows me to add additional error states to the app.

Note that the actual app had dozens of error states that were referenced in multiple places, so this type safety was extremely useful.

Object of class stdClass could not be converted to string

What I was looking for is a way to fetch the data

so I used this $data = $this->db->get('table_name')->result_array();

and then fetched my data just as you operate on array objects.

$data[0]['field_name']

No need to worry about type casting or anything just straight to the point.

So it worked for me.

Is it possible to animate scrollTop with jQuery?

I have what I believe is a better solution than the $('html, body') hack.

It's not a one-liner, but the issue I had with $('html, body') is that if you log $(window).scrollTop() during the animation, you'll see that the value jumps all over the place, sometimes by hundreds of pixels (though I don't see anything like that happening visually). I needed the value to be predictable, so that I could cancel the animation if the user grabbed the scroll bar or twirled the mousewheel during the auto-scroll.

Here is a function will animate scrolling smoothly:

function animateScrollTop(target, duration) {
    duration = duration || 16;
    var scrollTopProxy = { value: $(window).scrollTop() };
    if (scrollTopProxy.value != target) {
        $(scrollTopProxy).animate(
            { value: target }, 
            { duration: duration, step: function (stepValue) {
                var rounded = Math.round(stepValue);
                $(window).scrollTop(rounded);
            }
        });
    }
}

Below is a more complex version that will cancel the animation on user interaction, as well as refiring until the target value is reached, which is useful when trying to set the scrollTop instantaneously (e.g. simply calling $(window).scrollTop(1000) — in my experience, this fails to work about 50% of the time.)

function animateScrollTop(target, duration) {
    duration = duration || 16;

    var $window = $(window);
    var scrollTopProxy = { value: $window.scrollTop() };
    var expectedScrollTop = scrollTopProxy.value;

    if (scrollTopProxy.value != target) {
        $(scrollTopProxy).animate(
            { value: target },
            {
                duration: duration,

                step: function (stepValue) {
                    var roundedValue = Math.round(stepValue);
                    if ($window.scrollTop() !== expectedScrollTop) {
                        // The user has tried to scroll the page
                        $(scrollTopProxy).stop();
                    }
                    $window.scrollTop(roundedValue);
                    expectedScrollTop = roundedValue;
                },

                complete: function () {
                    if ($window.scrollTop() != target) {
                        setTimeout(function () {
                            animateScrollTop(target);
                        }, 16);
                    }
                }
            }
        );
    }
}

How to throw an exception in C?

In C you could use the combination of the setjmp() and longjmp() functions, defined in setjmp.h. Example from Wikipedia

#include <stdio.h>
#include <setjmp.h>

static jmp_buf buf;

void second(void) {
    printf("second\n");         // prints
    longjmp(buf,1);             // jumps back to where setjmp 
                                //   was called - making setjmp now return 1
}

void first(void) {
    second();
    printf("first\n");          // does not print
}

int main() {   
    if ( ! setjmp(buf) ) {
        first();                // when executed, setjmp returns 0
    } else {                    // when longjmp jumps back, setjmp returns 1
        printf("main");         // prints
    }

    return 0;
}

Note: I would actually advise you not to use them as they work awful with C++ (destructors of local objects wouldn't get called) and it is really hard to understand what is going on. Return some kind of error instead.

Get the item doubleclick event of listview

for me, I do double click of ListView in this code section .

    this.listView.Activation = ItemActivation.TwoClick;

    this.listView.ItemActivate += ListView1_ItemActivate;

ItemActivate specify how user activate with items

When user do double click, ListView1_ItemActivate will be trigger. Property of ListView ItemActivate refers to access the collection of items selected.

    private void ListView1_ItemActivate(Object sender, EventArgs e)
    {

        foreach (ListViewItem item in listView.SelectedItems)
           //do something

    }

it works for me.

Fastest way(s) to move the cursor on a terminal command line?

If you want to move forward a certain number of words, hit M-<n> (M- is for Meta and its usually the escape key) then hit a number. This sends a repeat argument to readline, so you can repeat whatever command you want - if you want to go forward then hit M-<n> M-f and the cursor will move forward <n> number of words.

E.g.

 $|echo "two three four five six seven"
 $ M-4
 (arg: 4) echo "two three four five six seven"
 $ M-f
 $ echo "two three four| five six seven"

So for your example from the cursor at the beginning of the line you would hit, M-26 M-f and your cursor would be at --option25| -or- from the end of the line M-26 M-b would put your cursor at --|option25

Loop through an array of strings in Bash?

None of those answers include a counter...

#!/bin/bash
## declare an array variable
declare -a array=("one" "two" "three")

# get length of an array
arraylength=${#array[@]}

# use for loop to read all values and indexes
for (( i=1; i<${arraylength}+1; i++ ));
do
  echo $i " / " ${arraylength} " : " ${array[$i-1]}
done

Output:

1  /  3  :  one
2  /  3  :  two
3  /  3  :  three

Query for documents where array size is greater than 1

You can MongoDB aggregation to do the task:

  },
  {
    $match: {
      arrayLength: {$gt: 1}
    },
  },
])

Python division

Make at least one of them float, then it will be float division, not integer:

Casting the result to float is too late.

How to apply style classes to td classes?

If I remember well, some CSS properties you apply to table are not inherited as expected. So you should indeed apply the style directly to td,tr and th elements.

If you need to add styling to each column, use the <col> element in your table.

See an example here: http://jsfiddle.net/GlauberRocha/xkuRA/2/

NB: You can't have a margin in a td. Use padding instead.

Ambiguous overload call to abs(double)

The header <math.h> is a C std lib header. It defines a lot of stuff in the global namespace. The header <cmath> is the C++ version of that header. It defines essentially the same stuff in namespace std. (There are some differences, like that the C++ version comes with overloads of some functions, but that doesn't matter.) The header <cmath.h> doesn't exist.

Since vendors don't want to maintain two versions of what is essentially the same header, they came up with different possibilities to have only one of them behind the scenes. Often, that's the C header (since a C++ compiler is able to parse that, while the opposite won't work), and the C++ header just includes that and pulls everything into namespace std. Or there's some macro magic for parsing the same header with or without namespace std wrapped around it or not. To this add that in some environments it's awkward if headers don't have a file extension (like editors failing to highlight the code etc.). So some vendors would have <cmath> be a one-liner including some other header with a .h extension. Or some would map all includes matching <cblah> to <blah.h> (which, through macro magic, becomes the C++ header when __cplusplus is defined, and otherwise becomes the C header) or <cblah.h> or whatever.

That's the reason why on some platforms including things like <cmath.h>, which ought not to exist, will initially succeed, although it might make the compiler fail spectacularly later on.

I have no idea which std lib implementation you use. I suppose it's the one that comes with GCC, but this I don't know, so I cannot explain exactly what happened in your case. But it's certainly a mix of one of the above vendor-specific hacks and you including a header you ought not to have included yourself. Maybe it's the one where <cmath> maps to <cmath.h> with a specific (set of) macro(s) which you hadn't defined, so that you ended up with both definitions.

Note, however, that this code still ought not to compile:

#include <cmath>

double f(double d)
{
  return abs(d);
}

There shouldn't be an abs() in the global namespace (it's std::abs()). However, as per the above described implementation tricks, there might well be. Porting such code later (or just trying to compile it with your vendor's next version which doesn't allow this) can be very tedious, so you should keep an eye on this.

Is CSS Turing complete?

This answer is not accurate because it mix description of UTM and UTM itself (Universal Turing Machine).

We have good answer but from different perspective and it do not show directly flaws in current top answer.


First of all we can agree that human can work as UTM. This mean if we do

CSS + Human == UTM

Then CSS part is useless because all work can be done by Human who will do UTM part. Act of clicking can be UTM, because you do not click at random but only in specific places.

Instead of CSS I could use this text (Rule 110):

000 -> 0
001 -> 1
010 -> 1
011 -> 1
100 -> 0
101 -> 1
110 -> 1
111 -> 0

To guide my actions and result will be same. This mean this text UTM? No this is only input (description) that other UTM (human or computer) can read and run. Clicking is enough to run any UTM.


Critical part that CSS lack is ability to change of it own state in arbitrary way, if CSS could generate clicks then it would be UTM. Argument that your clicks are "crank" for CSS is not accurate because real "crank" for CSS is Layout Engine that run it and it should be enough to prove that CSS is UTM.

How to view UTF-8 Characters in VIM or Gvim

I couldn't get any other fonts I installed to show up in my Windows GVim editor, so I just switched to Lucida Console which has at least somewhat better UTF-8 support. Add this to the end of your _vimrc:

" For making everything utf-8
set enc=utf-8
set guifont=Lucida_Console:h9:cANSI
set guifontwide=Lucida_Console:h12

Now I see at least some UTF-8 characters.

Base64 Java encode and decode a string

The following is a good solution -

That's it. A single line encoding and decoding.

How to determine an object's class?

I Used Java 8 generics to get what is the object instance at runtime rather than having to use switch case

 public <T> void print(T data) {
    System.out.println(data.getClass().getName()+" => The data is " + data);
}

pass any type of data and the method will print the type of data you passed while calling it. eg

    String str = "Hello World";
    int number = 10;
    double decimal = 10.0;
    float f = 10F;
    long l = 10L;
    List list = new ArrayList();
    print(str);
    print(number);
    print(decimal);
    print(f);
    print(l);
    print(list);

Following is the output

java.lang.String => The data is Hello World
java.lang.Integer => The data is 10
java.lang.Double => The data is 10.0
java.lang.Float => The data is 10.0
java.lang.Long => The data is 10
java.util.ArrayList => The data is []

What is dtype('O'), in pandas?

It means:

'O'     (Python) objects

Source.

The first character specifies the kind of data and the remaining characters specify the number of bytes per item, except for Unicode, where it is interpreted as the number of characters. The item size must correspond to an existing type, or an error will be raised. The supported kinds are to an existing type, or an error will be raised. The supported kinds are:

'b'       boolean
'i'       (signed) integer
'u'       unsigned integer
'f'       floating-point
'c'       complex-floating point
'O'       (Python) objects
'S', 'a'  (byte-)string
'U'       Unicode
'V'       raw data (void)

Another answer helps if need check types.

NewtonSoft.Json Serialize and Deserialize class with property of type IEnumerable<ISomeInterface>

I solved that problem by using a special setting for JsonSerializerSettings which is called TypeNameHandling.All

TypeNameHandling setting includes type information when serializing JSON and read type information so that the create types are created when deserializing JSON

Serialization:

var settings = new JsonSerializerSettings { TypeNameHandling = TypeNameHandling.All };
var text = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(configuration, settings);

Deserialization:

var settings = new JsonSerializerSettings { TypeNameHandling = TypeNameHandling.All };
var configuration = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<YourClass>(json, settings);

The class YourClass might have any kind of base type fields and it will be serialized properly.

How to get cookie's expire time

Putting an encoded json inside the cookie is my favorite method, to get properly formated data out of a cookie. Try that:

$expiry = time() + 12345;
$data = (object) array( "value1" => "just for fun", "value2" => "i'll save whatever I want here" );
$cookieData = (object) array( "data" => $data, "expiry" => $expiry );
setcookie( "cookiename", json_encode( $cookieData ), $expiry );

then when you get your cookie next time:

$cookie = json_decode( $_COOKIE[ "cookiename" ] );

you can simply extract the expiry time, which was inserted as data inside the cookie itself..

$expiry = $cookie->expiry;

and additionally the data which will come out as a usable object :)

$data = $cookie->data;
$value1 = $cookie->data->value1;

etc. I find that to be a much neater way to use cookies, because you can nest as many small objects within other objects as you wish!

Using an integer as a key in an associative array in JavaScript

Break or return from Java 8 stream forEach?

What about this one:

final BooleanWrapper condition = new BooleanWrapper();
someObjects.forEach(obj -> {
   if (condition.ok()) {
     // YOUR CODE to control
     condition.stop();
   }
});

Where BooleanWrapper is a class you must implement to control the flow.

AmazonS3 putObject with InputStream length example

Just passing the file object to the putobject method worked for me. If you are getting a stream, try writing it to a temp file before passing it on to S3.

How to set the height and the width of a textfield in Java?

There's a way which maybe not perfect, but can meet your requirement. The main point here is use a special dimension to restrict the height. But at the same time, width actually is free, as the max width is big enough.

package test;
import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;

public final class TestFrame extends Frame{
    public TestFrame(){
        JPanel p = new JPanel();
        p.setLayout(new BoxLayout(p, BoxLayout.X_AXIS));
        p.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(500, 200));
        p.setMaximumSize(new Dimension(10000, 200));
        p.add(new JLabel("TEST: "));

        JPanel p1 = new JPanel();
        p1.setLayout(new BoxLayout(p1, BoxLayout.X_AXIS));
        p1.setMaximumSize(new Dimension(10000, 200));
        p1.add(new JTextField(50));

        p.add(p1);

        this.setLayout(new BorderLayout());
        this.add(p, BorderLayout.CENTER);
    }

Laravel migration table field's type change

For me the solution was just replace unsigned with index

This is the full code:

    Schema::create('champions_overview',function (Blueprint $table){
        $table->engine = 'InnoDB';
        $table->increments('id');
        $table->integer('cid')->index();
        $table->longText('name');
    });


    Schema::create('champions_stats',function (Blueprint $table){
        $table->engine = 'InnoDB';
        $table->increments('id');
        $table->integer('championd_id')->index();
        $table->foreign('championd_id', 'ch_id')->references('cid')->on('champions_overview');
    });

form_for with nested resources

Be sure to have both objects created in controller: @post and @comment for the post, eg:

@post = Post.find params[:post_id]
@comment = Comment.new(:post=>@post)

Then in view:

<%= form_for([@post, @comment]) do |f| %>

Be sure to explicitly define the array in the form_for, not just comma separated like you have above.

Round a double to 2 decimal places

The easiest way, would be to do a trick like this;

double val = ....;
val = val*100;
val = Math.round(val);
val = val /100;

if val starts at 200.3456 then it goes to 20034.56 then it gets rounded to 20035 then we divide it to get 200.34.

if you wanted to always round down we could always truncate by casting to an int:

double val = ....;
val = val*100;
val = (double)((int) val);
val = val /100;

This technique will work for most cases because for very large doubles (positive or negative) it may overflow. but if you know that your values will be in an appropriate range then this should work for you.

What does a bitwise shift (left or right) do and what is it used for?

Left bit shifting to multiply by any power of two and right bit shifting to divide by any power of two.

For example, x = x * 2; can also be written as x<<1 or x = x*8 can be written as x<<3 (since 2 to the power of 3 is 8). Similarly x = x / 2; is x>>1 and so on.

How to find the statistical mode?

There are multiple solutions provided for this one. I checked the first one and after that wrote my own. Posting it here if it helps anyone:

Mode <- function(x){
  y <- data.frame(table(x))
  y[y$Freq == max(y$Freq),1]
}

Lets test it with a few example. I am taking the iris data set. Lets test with numeric data

> Mode(iris$Sepal.Length)
[1] 5

which you can verify is correct.

Now the only non numeric field in the iris dataset(Species) does not have a mode. Let's test with our own example

> test <- c("red","red","green","blue","red")
> Mode(test)
[1] red

EDIT

As mentioned in the comments, user might want to preserve the input type. In which case the mode function can be modified to:

Mode <- function(x){
  y <- data.frame(table(x))
  z <- y[y$Freq == max(y$Freq),1]
  as(as.character(z),class(x))
}

The last line of the function simply coerces the final mode value to the type of the original input.

In Oracle, is it possible to INSERT or UPDATE a record through a view?

There are two times when you can update a record through a view:

  1. If the view has no joins or procedure calls and selects data from a single underlying table.
  2. If the view has an INSTEAD OF INSERT trigger associated with the view.

Generally, you should not rely on being able to perform an insert to a view unless you have specifically written an INSTEAD OF trigger for it. Be aware, there are also INSTEAD OF UPDATE triggers that can be written as well to help perform updates.

Spark SQL: apply aggregate functions to a list of columns

Another example of the same concept - but say - you have 2 different columns - and you want to apply different agg functions to each of them i.e

f.groupBy("col1").agg(sum("col2").alias("col2"), avg("col3").alias("col3"), ...)

Here is the way to achieve it - though I do not yet know how to add the alias in this case

See the example below - Using Maps

val Claim1 = StructType(Seq(StructField("pid", StringType, true),StructField("diag1", StringType, true),StructField("diag2", StringType, true), StructField("allowed", IntegerType, true), StructField("allowed1", IntegerType, true)))
val claimsData1 = Seq(("PID1", "diag1", "diag2", 100, 200), ("PID1", "diag2", "diag3", 300, 600), ("PID1", "diag1", "diag5", 340, 680), ("PID2", "diag3", "diag4", 245, 490), ("PID2", "diag2", "diag1", 124, 248))

val claimRDD1 = sc.parallelize(claimsData1)
val claimRDDRow1 = claimRDD1.map(p => Row(p._1, p._2, p._3, p._4, p._5))
val claimRDD2DF1 = sqlContext.createDataFrame(claimRDDRow1, Claim1)

val l = List("allowed", "allowed1")
val exprs = l.map((_ -> "sum")).toMap
claimRDD2DF1.groupBy("pid").agg(exprs) show false
val exprs = Map("allowed" -> "sum", "allowed1" -> "avg")

claimRDD2DF1.groupBy("pid").agg(exprs) show false

How do I merge my local uncommitted changes into another Git branch?

If it were about committed changes, you should have a look at git-rebase, but as pointed out in comment by VonC, as you're talking about local changes, git-stash would certainly be the good way to do this.

How to convert all tables from MyISAM into InnoDB?

You can execute this statement in the mysql command line tool:

echo "SELECT concat('ALTER TABLE `',TABLE_NAME,'` ENGINE=InnoDB;')
FROM Information_schema.TABLES 
WHERE ENGINE != 'InnoDB' AND TABLE_TYPE='BASE TABLE' 
AND TABLE_SCHEMA='name-of-database'" | mysql > convert.sql

You may need to specify username and password using: mysql -u username -p The result is an sql script that you can pipe back into mysql:

mysql name-of-database < convert.sql

Replace "name-of-database" in the above statement and command line.

Difference between Method and Function?

Programmers from structural programming language background know it as a function while in OOPS it's called a method.

But there's not any difference between the two.

In the old days, methods did not return values and functions did. Now they both are used interchangeably.

Explain ExtJS 4 event handling

Let's start by describing DOM elements' event handling.

DOM node event handling

First of all you wouldn't want to work with DOM node directly. Instead you probably would want to utilize Ext.Element interface. For the purpose of assigning event handlers, Element.addListener and Element.on (these are equivalent) were created. So, for example, if we have html:

<div id="test_node"></div>

and we want add click event handler.
Let's retrieve Element:

var el = Ext.get('test_node');

Now let's check docs for click event. It's handler may have three parameters:

click( Ext.EventObject e, HTMLElement t, Object eOpts )

Knowing all this stuff we can assign handler:

//       event name      event handler
el.on(    'click'        , function(e, t, eOpts){
  // handling event here
});

Widgets event handling

Widgets event handling is pretty much similar to DOM nodes event handling.

First of all, widgets event handling is realized by utilizing Ext.util.Observable mixin. In order to handle events properly your widget must containg Ext.util.Observable as a mixin. All built-in widgets (like Panel, Form, Tree, Grid, ...) has Ext.util.Observable as a mixin by default.

For widgets there are two ways of assigning handlers. The first one - is to use on method (or addListener). Let's for example create Button widget and assign click event to it. First of all you should check event's docs for handler's arguments:

click( Ext.button.Button this, Event e, Object eOpts )

Now let's use on:

var myButton = Ext.create('Ext.button.Button', {
  text: 'Test button'
});
myButton.on('click', function(btn, e, eOpts) {
  // event handling here
  console.log(btn, e, eOpts);
});

The second way is to use widget's listeners config:

var myButton = Ext.create('Ext.button.Button', {
  text: 'Test button',
  listeners : {
    click: function(btn, e, eOpts) {
      // event handling here
      console.log(btn, e, eOpts);
    }
  }
});

Notice that Button widget is a special kind of widgets. Click event can be assigned to this widget by using handler config:

var myButton = Ext.create('Ext.button.Button', {
  text: 'Test button',
  handler : function(btn, e, eOpts) {
    // event handling here
    console.log(btn, e, eOpts);
  }
});

Custom events firing

First of all you need to register an event using addEvents method:

myButton.addEvents('myspecialevent1', 'myspecialevent2', 'myspecialevent3', /* ... */);

Using the addEvents method is optional. As comments to this method say there is no need to use this method but it provides place for events documentation.

To fire your event use fireEvent method:

myButton.fireEvent('myspecialevent1', arg1, arg2, arg3, /* ... */);

arg1, arg2, arg3, /* ... */ will be passed into handler. Now we can handle your event:

myButton.on('myspecialevent1', function(arg1, arg2, arg3, /* ... */) {
  // event handling here
  console.log(arg1, arg2, arg3, /* ... */);
});

It's worth mentioning that the best place for inserting addEvents method call is widget's initComponent method when you are defining new widget:

Ext.define('MyCustomButton', {
  extend: 'Ext.button.Button',
  // ... other configs,
  initComponent: function(){
    this.addEvents('myspecialevent1', 'myspecialevent2', 'myspecialevent3', /* ... */);
    // ...
    this.callParent(arguments);
  }
});
var myButton = Ext.create('MyCustomButton', { /* configs */ });

Preventing event bubbling

To prevent bubbling you can return false or use Ext.EventObject.preventDefault(). In order to prevent browser's default action use Ext.EventObject.stopPropagation().

For example let's assign click event handler to our button. And if not left button was clicked prevent default browser action:

myButton.on('click', function(btn, e){
  if (e.button !== 0)
    e.preventDefault();
});

The project cannot be built until the build path errors are resolved.

This works for me: close the project then re-open it, this will force eclipse to see it as a fresh project and detects a correct build path.

how to include glyphicons in bootstrap 3

I think your particular problem isn't how to use Glyphicons but understanding how Bootstrap files work together.

Bootstrap requires a specific file structure to work. I see from your code you have this:

<link href="bootstrap.css" rel="stylesheet" media="screen">

Your Bootstrap.css is being loaded from the same location as your page, this would create a problem if you didn't adjust your file structure.

But first, let me recommend you setup your folder structure like so:

/css      <-- Bootstrap.css here
/fonts    <-- Bootstrap fonts here
/img
/js       <-- Bootstrap JavaScript here
index.html

If you notice, this is also how Bootstrap structures its files in its download ZIP.

You then include your Bootstrap file like so:

<link href="css/bootstrap.css" rel="stylesheet" media="screen">
or
<link href="./css/bootstrap.css" rel="stylesheet" media="screen">
or
<link href="/css/bootstrap.css" rel="stylesheet" media="screen">

Depending on your server structure or what you're going for.

The first and second are relative to your file's current directory. The second one is just more explicit by saying "here" (./) first then css folder (/css).

The third is good if you're running a web server, and you can just use relative to root notation as the leading "/" will be always start at the root folder.

So, why do this?

Bootstrap.css has this specific line for Glyphfonts:

@font-face {
    font-family: 'Glyphicons Halflings';
    src: url('../fonts/glyphicons-halflings-regular.eot');
    src: url('../fonts/glyphicons-halflings-regular.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'), url('../fonts/glyphicons-halflings-regular.woff') format('woff'), url('../fonts/glyphicons-halflings-regular.ttf') format('truetype'), url('../fonts/glyphicons-halflings-regular.svg#glyphicons-halflingsregular') format('svg');
}

What you can see is that that Glyphfonts are loaded by going up one directory ../ and then looking for a folder called /fonts and THEN loading the font file.

The URL address is relative to the location of the CSS file. So, if your CSS file is at the same location like this:

/fonts
Bootstrap.css
index.html

The CSS file is going one level deeper than looking for a /fonts folder.

So, let's say the actual location of these files are:

C:\www\fonts
C:\www\Boostrap.css
C:\www\index.html

The CSS file would technically be looking for a folder at:

C:\fonts

but your folder is actually in:

C:\www\fonts

So see if that helps. You don't have to do anything 'special' to load Bootstrap Glyphicons, except make sure your folder structure is set up appropriately.

When you get that fixed, your HTML should simply be:

<span class="glyphicon glyphicon-comment"></span>

Note, you need both classes. The first class glyphicon sets up the basic styles while glyphicon-comment sets the specific image.

PostgreSQL: insert from another table

Very late answer, but I think my answer is more straight forward for specific use cases where users want to simply insert (copy) data from table A into table B:

INSERT INTO table_b (col1, col2, col3, col4, col5, col6)
SELECT col1, 'str_val', int_val, col4, col5, col6
FROM table_a

Align div right in Bootstrap 3

Bootstrap 4+ has made changes to the utility classes for this. From the documentation:

Added .float-{sm,md,lg,xl}-{left,right,none} classes for responsive floats and removed .pull-left and .pull-right since they’re redundant to .float-left and .float-right.

So use the .float-right (or a size equivalent such as .float-lg-right) instead of .pull-right for your right alignment if you're using a newer Bootstrap version.

How do I directly modify a Google Chrome Extension File? (.CRX)

Installed Chrome extension directories are listed below:

  1. Copy the folder of the extension you wish to modify. ( Named according to the extension ID, to find the ID of the extension, go to chrome://extensions/). Once copied, you have to remove the _metadata folder.

  2. From chrome://extensions in Developer mode select Load unpacked extension... and select your copied extension folder, if it contains a subfolder this is named by the version, select this version folder where there is a manifest file, this file is necessary for Chrome.

  3. Make your changes, then select reload and refresh the page for your extension to see your changes.


Chrome extension directories

Mac:

/Users/username/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome/Default/Extensions

Windows 7:

C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Extensions

Windows XP:

C:\Documents and Settings\YourUserName\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default

Ubuntu 14.04:

~/.config/google-chrome/Default/Extensions/

Create Carriage Return in PHP String?

PHP_EOL returns a string corresponding to the line break on the platform(LF, \n ou #10 sur Unix, CRLF, \n\r ou #13#10 sur Windows).

echo "Hello World".PHP_EOL;

Why is using "for...in" for array iteration a bad idea?

In addition to the other problems, the "for..in" syntax is probably slower, because the index is a string, not an integer.

var a = ["a"]
for (var i in a)
    alert(typeof i)  // 'string'
for (var i = 0; i < a.length; i++)
    alert(typeof i)  // 'number'

What does `dword ptr` mean?

It is a 32bit declaration. If you type at the top of an assembly file the statement [bits 32], then you don't need to type DWORD PTR. So for example:

[bits 32]
.
.
and  [ebp-4], 0

Max length for client ip address

If you are just storing it for reference, you can store it as a string, but if you want to do a lookup, for example, to see if the IP address is in some table, you need a "canonical representation." Converting the entire thing to a (large) number is the right thing to do. IPv4 addresses can be stored as a long int (32 bits) but you need a 128 bit number to store an IPv6 address.

For example, all these strings are really the same IP address: 127.0.0.1, 127.000.000.001, ::1, 0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1

Compare two data.frames to find the rows in data.frame 1 that are not present in data.frame 2

Really fast comparison, to get count of differences. Using specific column name.

colname = "CreatedDate" # specify column name
index <- match(colname, names(source_df)) # get index name for column name
sel <- source_df[, index] == target_df[, index] # get differences, gives you dataframe with TRUE and FALSE values
table(sel)["FALSE"] # count of differences
table(sel)["TRUE"] # count of matches

For complete dataframe, do not provide column or index name

sel <- source_df[, ] == target_df[, ] # gives you dataframe with TRUE and FALSE values
table(sel)["FALSE"] # count of differences
table(sel)["TRUE"] # count of matches

How is a CRC32 checksum calculated?

In addition to the Wikipedia Cyclic redundancy check and Computation of CRC articles, I found a paper entitled Reversing CRC - Theory and Practice* to be a good reference.

There are essentially three approaches for computing a CRC: an algebraic approach, a bit-oriented approach, and a table-driven approach. In Reversing CRC - Theory and Practice*, each of these three algorithms/approaches is explained in theory accompanied in the APPENDIX by an implementation for the CRC32 in the C programming language.

how do you filter pandas dataframes by multiple columns

For more general boolean functions that you would like to use as a filter and that depend on more than one column, you can use:

df = df[df[['col_1','col_2']].apply(lambda x: f(*x), axis=1)]

where f is a function that is applied to every pair of elements (x1, x2) from col_1 and col_2 and returns True or False depending on any condition you want on (x1, x2).

According to Cormen et al. Introduction to Algorithms (Appendix B.5.3), the depth of a node X in a tree T is defined as the length of the simple path (number of edges) from the root node of T to X. The height of a node Y is the number of edges on the longest downward simple path from Y to a leaf. The height of a tree is defined as the height of its root node.

Note that a simple path is a path without repeat vertices.

The height of a tree is equal to the max depth of a tree. The depth of a node and the height of a node are not necessarily equal. See Figure B.6 of the 3rd Edition of Cormen et al. for an illustration of these concepts.

I have sometimes seen problems asking one to count nodes (vertices) instead of edges, so ask for clarification if you're not sure you should count nodes or edges during an exam or a job interview.

How to get an absolute file path in Python

import os
os.path.abspath(os.path.expanduser(os.path.expandvars(PathNameString)))

Note that expanduser is necessary (on Unix) in case the given expression for the file (or directory) name and location may contain a leading ~/(the tilde refers to the user's home directory), and expandvars takes care of any other environment variables (like $HOME).

subsetting a Python DataFrame

Regarding some points mentioned in previous answers, and to improve readability:

No need for data.loc or query, but I do think it is a bit long.

The parentheses are also necessary, because of the precedence of the & operator vs. the comparison operators.

I like to write such expressions as follows - less brackets, faster to type, easier to read. Closer to R, too.

q_product = df.Product == p_id
q_start = df.Time > start_time
q_end = df.Time < end_time

df.loc[q_product & q_start & q_end, c('Time,Product')]

# c is just a convenience
c = lambda v: v.split(',') 

How to initialize a static array?

If you are creating an array then there is no difference, however, the following is neater:

String[] suit = {
  "spades", 
  "hearts", 
  "diamonds", 
  "clubs"  
};

But, if you want to pass an array into a method you have to call it like this:

myMethod(new String[] {"spades", "hearts"});

myMethod({"spades", "hearts"}); //won't compile!

Set default option in mat-select

Working StackBlitz

No need to use ngModel or Forms

In your html:

 <mat-form-field>
  <mat-select [(value)]="selected" placeholder="Mode">
    <mat-option value="domain">Domain</mat-option>
    <mat-option value="exact">Exact</mat-option>
  </mat-select>
</mat-form-field>

and in your component just set your public property selected to the default:

selected = 'domain';

Get a timestamp in C in microseconds?

You need to add in the seconds, too:

unsigned long time_in_micros = 1000000 * tv.tv_sec + tv.tv_usec;

Note that this will only last for about 232/106 =~ 4295 seconds, or roughly 71 minutes though (on a typical 32-bit system).

How to define static property in TypeScript interface

You can merge interface with namespace using the same name:

interface myInterface { }

namespace myInterface {
  Name:string;
}

But this interface is only useful to know that its have property Name. You can not implement it.

What is the difference between for and foreach?

You can use the foreach for an simple array like

int[] test = { 0, 1, 2, 3, ...};

And you can use the for when you have a 2D array

int[][] test = {{1,2,3,4},
                {5,2,6,5,8}};

Use SELECT inside an UPDATE query

I had a similar problem. I wanted to find a string in one column and put that value in another column in the same table. The select statement below finds the text inside the parens.

When I created the query in Access I selected all fields. On the SQL view for that query, I replaced the mytable.myfield for the field I wanted to have the value from inside the parens with

SELECT Left(Right(OtherField,Len(OtherField)-InStr((OtherField),"(")), 
            Len(Right(OtherField,Len(OtherField)-InStr((OtherField),"(")))-1) 

I ran a make table query. The make table query has all the fields with the above substitution and ends with INTO NameofNewTable FROM mytable

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

Standard way of passing data from one activity to another:

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

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

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

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

Centering a button vertically in table cell, using Twitter Bootstrap

To fix this, i put this class on the webpage

    td.vcenter {
        vertical-align: middle !important;
        text-align: center !important;
    }
</style>

and this in my TemplateField

<asp:TemplateField ItemStyle-CssClass="vcenter">

as the CSS class points directly to the td (tabledata) element and has the !important statment at the end each setting. It will over rule bootsraps CSS class settings.

How can I tell Moq to return a Task?

Now you can also use Talentsoft.Moq.SetupAsync package https://github.com/TalentSoft/Moq.SetupAsync

Which on the base on the answers found here and ideas proposed to Moq but still not yet implemented here: https://github.com/moq/moq4/issues/384, greatly simplify setup of async methods

Few examples found in previous responses done with SetupAsync extension:

mock.SetupAsync(arg=>arg.DoSomethingAsync());
mock.SetupAsync(arg=>arg.DoSomethingAsync()).Callback(() => { <my code here> });
mock.SetupAsync(arg=>arg.DoSomethingAsync()).Throws(new InvalidOperationException());

Convert HttpPostedFileBase to byte[]

You can read it from the input stream:

public ActionResult ManagePhotos(ManagePhotos model)
{
    if (ModelState.IsValid)
    {
        byte[] image = new byte[model.File.ContentLength];
        model.File.InputStream.Read(image, 0, image.Length); 

        // TODO: Do something with the byte array here
    }
    ...
}

And if you intend to directly save the file to the disk you could use the model.File.SaveAs method. You might find the following blog post useful.

How to do a Jquery Callback after form submit?

You'll have to do things manually with an AJAX call to the server. This will require you to override the form as well.

But don't worry, it's a piece of cake. Here's an overview on how you'll go about working with your form:

  • override the default submit action (thanks to the passed in event object, that has a preventDefault method)
  • grab all necessary values from the form
  • fire off an HTTP request
  • handle the response to the request

First, you'll have to cancel the form submit action like so:

$("#myform").submit(function(event) {
    // Cancels the form's submit action.
    event.preventDefault();
});

And then, grab the value of the data. Let's just assume you have one text box.

$("#myform").submit(function(event) {
    event.preventDefault();
    var val = $(this).find('input[type="text"]').val();
});

And then fire off a request. Let's just assume it's a POST request.

$("#myform").submit(function(event) {
    event.preventDefault();
    var val = $(this).find('input[type="text"]').val();

    // I like to use defers :)
    deferred = $.post("http://somewhere.com", { val: val });

    deferred.success(function () {
        // Do your stuff.
    });

    deferred.error(function () {
        // Handle any errors here.
    });
});

And this should about do it.

Note 2: For parsing the form's data, it's preferable that you use a plugin. It will make your life really easy, as well as provide a nice semantic that mimics an actual form submit action.

Note 2: You don't have to use defers. It's just a personal preference. You can equally do the following, and it should work, too.

$.post("http://somewhere.com", { val: val }, function () {
    // Start partying here.
}, function () {
    // Handle the bad news here.
});

How can I get around MySQL Errcode 13 with SELECT INTO OUTFILE?

MySQL is getting stupid here. It tries to create files under /tmp/data/.... So what you can do is the following:

mkdir /tmp/data
mount --bind /data /tmp/data

Then try your query. This worked for me after hours of debugging the issue.

}
a(1,2,3);?

How can I view the Git history in Visual Studio Code?

I recommend you this repository, https://github.com/DonJayamanne/gitHistoryVSCode

Git History Git History

It does exactly what you need and has these features:

  • View the details of a commit, such as author name, email, date, committer name, email, date and comments.
  • View a previous copy of the file or compare it against the local workspace version or a previous version.
  • View the changes to the active line in the editor (Git Blame).
  • Configure the information displayed in the list
  • Use keyboard shortcuts to view history of a file or line
  • View the Git log (along with details of a commit, such as author name, email, comments and file changes).

"relocation R_X86_64_32S against " linking Error

Assuming you are generating a shared library, most probably what happens is that the variant of liblog4cplus.a you are using wasn't compiled with -fPIC. In linux, you can confirm this by extracting the object files from the static library and checking their relocations:

ar -x liblog4cplus.a  
readelf --relocs fileappender.o | egrep '(GOT|PLT|JU?MP_SLOT)'

If the output is empty, then the static library is not position-independent and cannot be used to generate a shared object.

Since the static library contains object code which was already compiled, providing the -fPIC flag won't help.

You need to get ahold of a version of liblog4cplus.a compiled with -fPIC and use that one instead.

MySQL LEFT JOIN Multiple Conditions

Just move the extra condition into the JOIN ON criteria, this way the existence of b is not required to return a result

    WHERE a.keyword LIKE '%".$keyword."%' 
    GROUP BY group_id

C++ display stack trace on exception

If you are using C++ and don't want/can't use Boost, you can print backtrace with demangled names using the following code [link to the original site].

Note, this solution is specific to Linux. It uses GNU's libc functions backtrace()/backtrace_symbols() (from execinfo.h) to get the backtraces and then uses __cxa_demangle() (from cxxabi.h) for demangling the backtrace symbol names.

How does the FetchMode work in Spring Data JPA

I elaborated on dream83619 answer to make it handle nested Hibernate @Fetch annotations. I used recursive method to find annotations in nested associated classes.

So you have to implement custom repository and override getQuery(spec, domainClass, sort) method. Unfortunately you also have to copy all referenced private methods :(.

Here is the code, copied private methods are omitted.
EDIT: Added remaining private methods.

@NoRepositoryBean
public class EntityGraphRepositoryImpl<T, ID extends Serializable> extends SimpleJpaRepository<T, ID> {

    private final EntityManager em;
    protected JpaEntityInformation<T, ?> entityInformation;

    public EntityGraphRepositoryImpl(JpaEntityInformation<T, ?> entityInformation, EntityManager entityManager) {
        super(entityInformation, entityManager);
        this.em = entityManager;
        this.entityInformation = entityInformation;
    }

    @Override
    protected <S extends T> TypedQuery<S> getQuery(Specification<S> spec, Class<S> domainClass, Sort sort) {
        CriteriaBuilder builder = em.getCriteriaBuilder();
        CriteriaQuery<S> query = builder.createQuery(domainClass);

        Root<S> root = applySpecificationToCriteria(spec, domainClass, query);

        query.select(root);
        applyFetchMode(root);

        if (sort != null) {
            query.orderBy(toOrders(sort, root, builder));
        }

        return applyRepositoryMethodMetadata(em.createQuery(query));

                String fieldPath = path + "." + field.getName();
                joinCache.put(path, (Join) descent);

XDocument or XmlDocument

I am surprised none of the answers so far mentions the fact that XmlDocument provides no line information, while XDocument does (through the IXmlLineInfo interface).

This can be a critical feature in some cases (for example if you want to report errors in an XML, or keep track of where elements are defined in general) and you better be aware of this before you happily start to implement using XmlDocument, to later discover you have to change it all.

Install Chrome extension form outside the Chrome Web Store

For Windows, you can also whitelist your extension through Windows policies. The full steps are details in this answer, but there are quicker steps:

  1. Create the registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Google\Chrome\ExtensionInstallWhitelist.
  2. For each extension you want to whitelist, add a string value whose name should be a sequence number (starting at 1) and value is the extension ID.

For instance, in order to whitelist 2 extensions with ID aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa and bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb, create a string value with name 1 and value aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa, and a second value with name 2 and value bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb. This can be sum up by this registry file:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Google\Chrome]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Google\Chrome\ExtensionInstallWhitelist]
"1"="aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa"
"2"="bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb"

EDIT: actually, Chromium docs also indicate how to do it for other OS.

How do I enumerate through a JObject?

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

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

Now you can make linq expressions like:

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

Or just:

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

Or this one to iterate over all data:

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

Java 8, Streams to find the duplicate elements

You need a set (allItems below) to hold the entire array contents, but this is O(n):

Integer[] numbers = new Integer[] { 1, 2, 1, 3, 4, 4 };
Set<Integer> allItems = new HashSet<>();
Set<Integer> duplicates = Arrays.stream(numbers)
        .filter(n -> !allItems.add(n)) //Set.add() returns false if the item was already in the set.
        .collect(Collectors.toSet());
System.out.println(duplicates); // [1, 4]

Using cut command to remove multiple columns

The same could be done with Perl
Because it uses 0-based-indexing instead of 1-based-indexing, the field values are offset by 1

perl -F, -lane 'print join ",", @F[1..3,5..9,11..19]'    

is equivalent to:

cut -d, -f2-4,6-10,12-20

If the commas are not needed in the output:

perl -F, -lane 'print "@F[1..3,5..9,11..19]"'

Multiline strings in VB.NET

Multi-line strings are available since the Visual Studio 2015.

Dim sql As String = "
    SELECT ID, Description
    FROM inventory
    ORDER BY DateAdded
"

You can combine them with string interpolation to maximize usefullness:

Dim primaryKey As String = "ID"
Dim inventoryTable As String = "inventory"

Dim sql As String = $"
    SELECT {primaryKey}, Description
    FROM {inventoryTable}
    ORDER BY DateAdded
"

Note that interpolated strings begin with $ and you need to take care of ", { and } contained inside – convert them into "", {{ or }} respectively.

Here you can see actual syntax highlighting of interpolated parts of the above code example:

If you wonder if their recognition by the Visual Studio editor also works with refactoring (e.g. mass-renaming the variables), then you are right, code refactoring works with these. Not mentioning that they also support IntelliSense, reference counting or code analysis.

Read a plain text file with php

$filename = "fille.txt";
$fp = fopen($filename, "r");

$content = fread($fp, filesize($filename));
$lines = explode("\n", $content);
fclose($fp);
print_r($lines);

In this code full content of the file is copied to the variable $content and then split it into an array with each newline character in the file.

CSS - display: none; not working

Remove display: block; in the div #tfl style property

<div id="tfl" style="display: block; width: 187px; height: 260px;

Inline style take priority then css file

Disable activity slide-in animation when launching new activity?

IMHO this answer here solve issue in the most elegant way..

Developer should create a style,

<style name="noAnimTheme" parent="android:Theme">
  <item name="android:windowAnimationStyle">@null</item>
</style>

then in manifest set it as theme for activity or whole application.

<activity android:name=".ui.ArticlesActivity" android:theme="@style/noAnimTheme">
</activity>

Voila! Nice and easy..

How do I change db schema to dbo

You can run the following, which will generate a set of ALTER sCHEMA statements for all your talbes:

SELECT 'ALTER SCHEMA dbo TRANSFER ' + TABLE_SCHEMA + '.' + TABLE_NAME 
FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES WHERE TABLE_SCHEMA = 'jonathan'

You then have to copy and run the statements in query analyzer.

Here's an older script that will do that for you, too, I think by changing the object owner. Haven't tried it on 2008, though.

DECLARE @old sysname, @new sysname, @sql varchar(1000)

SELECT
  @old = 'jonathan'
  , @new = 'dbo'
  , @sql = '
  IF EXISTS (SELECT NULL FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES
  WHERE
      QUOTENAME(TABLE_SCHEMA)+''.''+QUOTENAME(TABLE_NAME) = ''?''
      AND TABLE_SCHEMA = ''' + @old + '''
  )
  EXECUTE sp_changeobjectowner ''?'', ''' + @new + ''''

EXECUTE sp_MSforeachtable @sql

Got it from this site.

It also talks about doing the same for stored procs if you need to.

Responsive css background images

If you want the same image to scale based on the size of the browser window:

background-image:url('../images/bg.png');
background-repeat:no-repeat;
background-size:contain;
background-position:center;

Do not set width, height, or margins.

EDIT: The previous line about not setting width, height or margin refers to OP's original question about scaling with the window size. In other use cases, you may want to set width/height/margins if necessary.

PHP is not recognized as an internal or external command in command prompt

Add C:\xampp\php to your PATH environment variable.(My Computer->properties -> Advanced system setting-> Environment Variables->edit path)

Then close your command prompt and restart again.

Note: It's very important to close your command prompt and restart again otherwise changes will not be reflected.

Swift alert view with OK and Cancel: which button tapped?

You may want to consider using SCLAlertView, alternative for UIAlertView or UIAlertController.

UIAlertController only works on iOS 8.x or above, SCLAlertView is a good option to support older version.

github to see the details

example:

let alertView = SCLAlertView()
alertView.addButton("First Button", target:self, selector:Selector("firstButton"))
alertView.addButton("Second Button") {
    print("Second button tapped")
}
alertView.showSuccess("Button View", subTitle: "This alert view has buttons")

Open a local HTML file using window.open in Chrome

First, make sure that the source page and the target page are both served through the file URI scheme. You can't force an http page to open a file page (but it works the other way around).

Next, your script that calls window.open() should be invoked by a user-initiated event, such as clicks, keypresses and the like. Simply calling window.open() won't work.

You can test this right here in this question page. Run these in Chrome's JavaScript console:

// Does nothing
window.open('http://google.com');

// Click anywhere within this page and the new window opens
$(document.body).unbind('click').click(function() { window.open('http://google.com'); });

// This will open a new window, but it would be blank
$(document.body).unbind('click').click(function() { window.open('file:///path/to/a/local/html/file.html'); });

You can also test if this works with a local file. Here's a sample HTML file that simply loads jQuery:

<html>
    <head>
        <script type="text/javascript" src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.5.0/jquery.min.js"></script>
    </head>
    <body>
        <h5>Feel the presha</h5>
        <h3>Come play my game, I'll test ya</h3>
        <h1>Psycho- somatic- addict- insane!</h1>
    </body>
</html>

Then open Chrome's JavaScript console and run the statements above. The 3rd one will now work.

How to solve munmap_chunk(): invalid pointer error in C++

The hint is, the output file is created even if you get this error. The automatic deconstruction of vector starts after your code executed. Elements in the vector are deconstructed as well. This is most probably where the error occurs. The way you access the vector is through vector::operator[] with an index read from stream. Try vector::at() instead of vector::operator[]. This won't solve your problem, but will show which assignment to the vector causes error.

Maven2: Missing artifact but jars are in place

Ohh what a mess! My advise: When its comes to messy poms or project packaging, Eclipse is really bad at showing the real problem. It will tell you some dependencies are missing, when in fact for pom is malformed or some other problem are present in your pom.

Leave Eclipse alone are run a maven install. You will get to the real problem really quick!

How do I split a string, breaking at a particular character?

How to enable mbstring from php.ini?

All XAMPP packages come with Multibyte String (php_mbstring.dll) extension installed.

If you have accidentally removed DLL file from php/ext folder, just add it back (get the copy from XAMPP zip archive - its downloadable).

If you have deleted the accompanying INI configuration line from php.ini file, add it back as well:

extension=php_mbstring.dll

Also, ensure to restart your webserver (Apache) using XAMPP control panel.

Additional Info on Enabling PHP Extensions

  • install extension (e.g. put php_mbstring.dll into /XAMPP/php/ext directory)
  • in php.ini, ensure extension directory specified (e.g. extension_dir = "ext")
  • ensure correct build of DLL file (e.g. 32bit thread-safe VC9 only works with DLL files built using exact same tools and configuration: 32bit thread-safe VC9)
  • ensure PHP API versions match (If not, once you restart the webserver you will receive related error.)

How to retrieve current workspace using Jenkins Pipeline Groovy script?

Is there a Java API that can create rich Word documents?

Try Aspose.Words for Java, it runs on any OS where Java is installed.

It will output the document to DOC, DOCX or RTF if you need an MS Word output format. All are supported equally well.

Using this API you can create a document from scratch, literally from nodes and set their formatting properties. You can also use a DocumentBuilder which provides higher level methods such as create a table row, insert a field etc. Or you can copy/join/move portions between existing pre created document, say you want to assemble a contract, just grab and copy pieces from several documents and Aspose.Words will merge styles, list formatting etc properly in the resulting document.

You will be able to insert a TOC field using Aspose.Words, but as of today, the TOC field will require a field update when the document is opened in Microsoft Word. However, we are going to release full support for TOC fields early in 2010. E.g. it will build complete TOC as MS Word does it.

I'm on the Aspose.Words team.

What's the UIScrollView contentInset property for?

It sets the distance of the inset between the content view and the enclosing scroll view.

Obj-C

aScrollView.contentInset = UIEdgeInsetsMake(0, 0, 0, 7.0);

Swift 5.0

aScrollView.contentInset = UIEdgeInsets(top: 0, left: 0, bottom: 0, right: 7.0)

Here's a good iOS Reference Library article on scroll views that has an informative screenshot (fig 1-3) - I'll replicate it via text here:

  _|?_cW_?_|_?_
   |       | 
---------------
   |content| ?
 ? |content| contentInset.top
cH |content|
 ? |content| contentInset.bottom
   |content| ?
---------------
  _|_______|___ 
             ?


   (cH = contentSize.height; cW = contentSize.width)

The scroll view encloses the content view plus whatever padding is provided by the specified content insets.

How to rollback or commit a transaction in SQL Server

The good news is a transaction in SQL Server can span multiple batches (each exec is treated as a separate batch.)

You can wrap your EXEC statements in a BEGIN TRANSACTION and COMMIT but you'll need to go a step further and rollback if any errors occur.

Ideally you'd want something like this:

BEGIN TRY
    BEGIN TRANSACTION 
        exec( @sqlHeader)
        exec(@sqlTotals)
        exec(@sqlLine)
    COMMIT
END TRY
BEGIN CATCH

    IF @@TRANCOUNT > 0
        ROLLBACK
END CATCH

The BEGIN TRANSACTION and COMMIT I believe you are already familiar with. The BEGIN TRY and BEGIN CATCH blocks are basically there to catch and handle any errors that occur. If any of your EXEC statements raise an error, the code execution will jump to the CATCH block.

Your existing SQL building code should be outside the transaction (above) as you always want to keep your transactions as short as possible.

ProcessStartInfo hanging on "WaitForExit"? Why?

The problem is that if you redirect StandardOutput and/or StandardError the internal buffer can become full. Whatever order you use, there can be a problem:

  • If you wait for the process to exit before reading StandardOutput the process can block trying to write to it, so the process never ends.
  • If you read from StandardOutput using ReadToEnd then your process can block if the process never closes StandardOutput (for example if it never terminates, or if it is blocked writing to StandardError).

The solution is to use asynchronous reads to ensure that the buffer doesn't get full. To avoid any deadlocks and collect up all output from both StandardOutput and StandardError you can do this:

EDIT: See answers below for how avoid an ObjectDisposedException if the timeout occurs.

using (Process process = new Process())
{
    process.StartInfo.FileName = filename;
    process.StartInfo.Arguments = arguments;
    process.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = false;
    process.StartInfo.RedirectStandardOutput = true;
    process.StartInfo.RedirectStandardError = true;

    StringBuilder output = new StringBuilder();
    StringBuilder error = new StringBuilder();

    using (AutoResetEvent outputWaitHandle = new AutoResetEvent(false))
    using (AutoResetEvent errorWaitHandle = new AutoResetEvent(false))
    {
        process.OutputDataReceived += (sender, e) => {
            if (e.Data == null)
            {
                outputWaitHandle.Set();
            }
            else
            {
                output.AppendLine(e.Data);
            }
        };
        process.ErrorDataReceived += (sender, e) =>
        {
            if (e.Data == null)
            {
                errorWaitHandle.Set();
            }
            else
            {
                error.AppendLine(e.Data);
            }
        };

        process.Start();

        process.BeginOutputReadLine();
        process.BeginErrorReadLine();

        if (process.WaitForExit(timeout) &&
            outputWaitHandle.WaitOne(timeout) &&
            errorWaitHandle.WaitOne(timeout))
        {
            // Process completed. Check process.ExitCode here.
        }
        else
        {
            // Timed out.
        }
    }
}

Java. Implicit super constructor Employee() is undefined. Must explicitly invoke another constructor

An explicit call to a parent class constructor is required any time the parent class lacks a no-argument constructor. You can either add a no-argument constructor to the parent class or explicitly call the parent class constructor in your child class.

ReactJS map through Object

When calling Object.keys it returns a array of the object's keys.

Object.keys({ test: '', test2: ''}) // ['test', 'test2']

When you call Array#map the function you pass will give you 2 arguments;

  1. the item in the array,
  2. the index of the item.

When you want to get the data, you need to use item (or in the example below keyName) instead of i

{Object.keys(subjects).map((keyName, i) => (
    <li className="travelcompany-input" key={i}>
        <span className="input-label">key: {i} Name: {subjects[keyName]}</span>
    </li>
))}

Correct way to use StringBuilder in SQL

You are correct in guessing that the aim of using string builder is not achieved, at least not to its full extent.

However, when the compiler sees the expression "select id1, " + " id2 " + " from " + " table" it emits code which actually creates a StringBuilder behind the scenes and appends to it, so the end result is not that bad afterall.

But of course anyone looking at that code is bound to think that it is kind of retarded.

How to call on a function found on another file?

You can use header files.

Good practice.

You can create a file called player.h declare all functions that are need by other cpp files in that header file and include it when needed.

player.h

#ifndef PLAYER_H    // To make sure you don't declare the function more than once by including the header multiple times.
#define PLAYER_H

#include "stdafx.h"
#include <SFML/Graphics.hpp>

int playerSprite();

#endif

player.cpp

#include "player.h"  // player.h must be in the current directory. or use relative or absolute path to it. e.g #include "include/player.h"

int playerSprite(){
    sf::Texture Texture;
    if(!Texture.loadFromFile("player.png")){
        return 1;
    }
    sf::Sprite Sprite;
    Sprite.setTexture(Texture);
    return 0;
}

main.cpp

#include "stdafx.h"
#include <SFML/Graphics.hpp>
#include "player.h"            //Here. Again player.h must be in the current directory. or use relative or absolute path to it.

int main()
{
    // ...
    int p = playerSprite();  
    //...

Not such a good practice but works for small projects. declare your function in main.cpp

#include "stdafx.h"
#include <SFML/Graphics.hpp>
// #include "player.cpp"


int playerSprite();  // Here

int main()
{
    // ...   
    int p = playerSprite();  
    //...

Control the dashed border stroke length and distance between strokes

The native dashed border property value does not offer control over the dashes themselves... so bring on the border-image property!

Brew your own border with border-image

Compatibility: It offers great browser support (IE 11 and all modern browsers). A normal border can be set as a fallback for older browsers.

Let's create these

These borders will display exactly the same cross-browser!

Goal example Goal example with wider gaps

Step 1 - Create a suitable image

This example is 15 pixels wide by 15 pixels high and the gaps are currently 5px wide. It is a .png with transparency.

This is what it looks like in photoshop when zoomed in:

Example Border Image Background Blown Up

This is what it looks like to scale:

Example Border Image Background Actual Size

Controlling gap and stroke length

To create wider / shorter gaps or strokes, widen / shorten the gaps or strokes in the image.

Here is an image with wider 10px gaps:

Larger gaps correctly scaled = Larger gaps to scale

Step 2 - Create the CSS — this example requires 4 basic steps

  1. Define the border-image-source:

    border-image-source:url("http://i.stack.imgur.com/wLdVc.png");  
    
  2. Optional - Define the border-image-width:

    border-image-width: 1;
    

    The default value is 1. It can also be set with a pixel value, percentage value, or as another multiple (1x, 2x, 3x etc). This overrides any border-width set.

  3. Define the border-image-slice:

    In this example, the thickness of the images top, right, bottom and left borders is 2px, and there is no gap outside of them, so our slice value is 2:

    border-image-slice: 2; 
    

    The slices look like this, 2 pixels from the top, right, bottom and left:

    Slices example

  4. Define the border-image-repeat:

    In this example, we want the pattern to repeat itself evenly around our div. So we choose:

    border-image-repeat: round;
    

Writing shorthand

The properties above can be set individually, or in shorthand using border-image:

border-image: url("http://i.stack.imgur.com/wLdVc.png") 2 round;

Complete example

Note the border: dashed 4px #000 fallback. Non-supporting browsers will receive this border.

_x000D_
_x000D_
.bordered {_x000D_
  display: inline-block;_x000D_
  padding: 20px;_x000D_
  /* Fallback dashed border_x000D_
     - the 4px width here is overwritten with the border-image-width (if set)_x000D_
     - the border-image-width can be omitted below if it is the same as the 4px here_x000D_
  */_x000D_
  border: dashed 4px #000;_x000D_
  _x000D_
  /* Individual border image properties */_x000D_
  border-image-source: url("http://i.stack.imgur.com/wLdVc.png");_x000D_
  border-image-slice: 2;_x000D_
  border-image-repeat: round;  _x000D_
  _x000D_
  /* or use the shorthand border-image */_x000D_
  border-image: url("http://i.stack.imgur.com/wLdVc.png") 2 round;_x000D_
}_x000D_
_x000D_
_x000D_
/*The border image of this one creates wider gaps*/_x000D_
.largeGaps {_x000D_
  border-image-source: url("http://i.stack.imgur.com/LKclP.png");_x000D_
  margin: 0 20px;_x000D_
}
_x000D_
<div class="bordered">This is bordered!</div>_x000D_
_x000D_
<div class="bordered largeGaps">This is bordered and has larger gaps!</div>

hash function for string

One thing I've used with good results is the following (I don't know if its mentioned already because I can't remember its name).

You precompute a table T with a random number for each character in your key's alphabet [0,255]. You hash your key 'k0 k1 k2 ... kN' by taking T[k0] xor T[k1] xor ... xor T[kN]. You can easily show that this is as random as your random number generator and its computationally very feasible and if you really run into a very bad instance with lots of collisions you can just repeat the whole thing using a fresh batch of random numbers.

What are OLTP and OLAP. What is the difference between them?

The difference is quite simple:

OLTP (Online Transaction Processing)

OLTP is a class of information systems that facilitate and manage transaction-oriented applications. OLTP has also been used to refer to processing in which the system responds immediately to user requests. Online transaction processing applications are high throughput and insert or update-intensive in database management. Some examples of OLTP systems include order entry, retail sales, and financial transaction systems.

OLAP (Online Analytical Processing)

OLAP is part of the broader category of business intelligence, which also encompasses relational database, report writing and data mining. Typical applications of OLAP include business reporting for sales, marketing, management reporting, business process management (BPM), budgeting and forecasting, financial reporting and similar areas.

How to do logging in React Native?

There are multiple ways to log. console.warn() will through the log in the mobile screen itself.It can be useful if you want to log small things and dont want to bother opening console. Other is console.log(), for which you will have to open browser's console to view the logs.With the newer react native 0.62+ you can see the log in node itself. So they've made it pretty easier to view logs in newer version.

Is there an equivalent to the SUBSTRING function in MS Access SQL?

You can use the VBA string functions (as @onedaywhen points out in the comments, they are not really the VBA functions, but their equivalents from the MS Jet libraries. As far as function signatures go, they are called and work the same, even though the actual presence of MS Access is not required for them to be available.):

SELECT DISTINCT Left(LastName, 1)
FROM Authors;

SELECT DISTINCT Mid(LastName, 1, 1)
FROM Authors;

How to set Android camera orientation properly?

I faced the issue when i was using ZBar for scanning in tabs. Camera orientation issue. Using below code i was able to resolve issue. This is not the whole code snippet, Please take only help from this.

What is the meaning of "__attribute__((packed, aligned(4))) "

Before answering, I would like to give you some data from Wiki


Data structure alignment is the way data is arranged and accessed in computer memory. It consists of two separate but related issues: data alignment and data structure padding.

When a modern computer reads from or writes to a memory address, it will do this in word sized chunks (e.g. 4 byte chunks on a 32-bit system). Data alignment means putting the data at a memory offset equal to some multiple of the word size, which increases the system's performance due to the way the CPU handles memory.

To align the data, it may be necessary to insert some meaningless bytes between the end of the last data structure and the start of the next, which is data structure padding.


gcc provides functionality to disable structure padding. i.e to avoid these meaningless bytes in some cases. Consider the following structure:

typedef struct
{
     char Data1;
     int Data2;
     unsigned short Data3;
     char Data4;

}sSampleStruct;

sizeof(sSampleStruct) will be 12 rather than 8. Because of structure padding. By default, In X86, structures will be padded to 4-byte alignment:

typedef struct
{
     char Data1;
     //3-Bytes Added here.
     int Data2;
     unsigned short Data3;
     char Data4;
     //1-byte Added here.

}sSampleStruct;

We can use __attribute__((packed, aligned(X))) to insist particular(X) sized padding. X should be powers of two. Refer here

typedef struct
{
     char Data1;
     int Data2;
     unsigned short Data3;
     char Data4;

}__attribute__((packed, aligned(1))) sSampleStruct;  

so the above specified gcc attribute does not allow the structure padding. so the size will be 8 bytes.

If you wish to do the same for all the structures, simply we can push the alignment value to stack using #pragma

#pragma pack(push, 1)

//Structure 1
......

//Structure 2
......

#pragma pack(pop)

Copying HTML code in Google Chrome's inspect element

Do the following:

  1. Select the top most element, you want to copy. (To copy all, select <html>)
  2. Right click.
  3. Select Edit as HTML
  4. New sub-window opens up with the HTML text.
  5. This is your chance. Press CTRL+A/CTRL+C and copy the entire text field to a different window.

This is a hacky way, but it's the easiest way to do this.

How to determine the Schemas inside an Oracle Data Pump Export file

impdp exports the DDL of a dmp backup to a file if you use the SQLFILE parameter. For example, put this into a text file

impdp '/ as sysdba' dumpfile=<your .dmp file> logfile=import_log.txt sqlfile=ddl_dump.txt

Then check ddl_dump.txt for the tablespaces, users, and schemas in the backup.

According to the documentation, this does not actually modify the database:

The SQL is not actually executed, and the target system remains unchanged.

PHP mailer multiple address

You need to call the AddAddress method once for every recipient. Like so:

$mail->AddAddress('[email protected]', 'Person One');
$mail->AddAddress('[email protected]', 'Person Two');
// ..

Better yet, add them as Carbon Copy recipients.

$mail->AddCC('[email protected]', 'Person One');
$mail->AddCC('[email protected]', 'Person Two');
// ..

To make things easy, you should loop through an array to do this.

$recipients = array(
   '[email protected]' => 'Person One',
   '[email protected]' => 'Person Two',
   // ..
);
foreach($recipients as $email => $name)
{
   $mail->AddCC($email, $name);
}

How to remove \n from a list element?

new_list = ['Name1', '7.3', '6.9', '6.6', '6.6', '6.1', '6.4', '7.3\n']
for i in range(len(new_list)):
    new_list[i]=new_list[i].replace('\n','')
print(new_list)

Output Will be like this

['Name1', '7.3', '6.9', '6.6', '6.6', '6.1', '6.4', '7.3']

How to do something to each file in a directory with a batch script

Command line usage:

for /f %f in ('dir /b c:\') do echo %f

Batch file usage:

for /f %%f in ('dir /b c:\') do echo %%f

Update: if the directory contains files with space in the names, you need to change the delimiter the for /f command is using. for example, you can use the pipe char.

for /f "delims=|" %%f in ('dir /b c:\') do echo %%f

Update 2: (quick one year and a half after the original answer :-)) If the directory name itself has a space in the name, you can use the usebackq option on the for:

for /f "usebackq delims=|" %%f in (`dir /b "c:\program files"`) do echo %%f

And if you need to use output redirection or command piping, use the escape char (^):

for /f "usebackq delims=|" %%f in (`dir /b "c:\program files" ^| findstr /i microsoft`) do echo %%f

Javascript checkbox onChange

The following solution makes use of jquery. Let's assume you have a checkbox with id of checkboxId.

const checkbox = $("#checkboxId");

checkbox.change(function(event) {
    var checkbox = event.target;
    if (checkbox.checked) {
        //Checkbox has been checked
    } else {
        //Checkbox has been unchecked
    }
});

Sorting Python list based on the length of the string

The same as in Eli's answer - just using a shorter form, because you can skip a lambda part here.

Creating new list:

>>> xs = ['dddd','a','bb','ccc']
>>> sorted(xs, key=len)
['a', 'bb', 'ccc', 'dddd']

In-place sorting:

>>> xs.sort(key=len)
>>> xs
['a', 'bb', 'ccc', 'dddd']

How to convert array to a string using methods other than JSON?

readable output!

OR

echo print_r($array, true);

Sorting Characters Of A C++ String

You can use sort() function. sort() exists in algorithm header file

        #include<bits/stdc++.h>
        using namespace std;


        int main()
        {
            ios::sync_with_stdio(false);
            string str = "sharlock";

            sort(str.begin(), str.end());
            cout<<str<<endl;

            return 0;
        }

Output:

Unable to obtain LocalDateTime from TemporalAccessor when parsing LocalDateTime (Java 8)

If you really need to transform a date to a LocalDateTime object, you could use the LocalDate.atStartOfDay(). This will give you a LocalDateTime object at the specified date, having the hour, minute and second fields set to 0:

final DateTimeFormatter formatter = DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern("yyyyMMdd");
LocalDateTime time = LocalDate.parse("20140218", formatter).atStartOfDay();

Failed to execute 'btoa' on 'Window': The string to be encoded contains characters outside of the Latin1 range.

I just thought I should share how I actually solved the problem and why I think this is the right solution (provided you don't optimize for old browser).

Converting data to dataURL (data: ...)

var blob = new Blob(
              // I'm using page innerHTML as data
              // note that you can use the array
              // to concatenate many long strings EFFICIENTLY
              [document.body.innerHTML],
              // Mime type is important for data url
              {type : 'text/html'}
); 
// This FileReader works asynchronously, so it doesn't lag
// the web application
var a = new FileReader();
a.onload = function(e) {
     // Capture result here
     console.log(e.target.result);
};
a.readAsDataURL(blob);

Allowing user to save data

Apart from obvious solution - opening new window with your dataURL as URL you can do two other things.

1. Use fileSaver.js

File saver can create actual fileSave dialog with predefined filename. It can also fallback to normal dataURL approach.

2. Use (experimental) URL.createObjectURL

This is great for reusing base64 encoded data. It creates a short URL for your dataURL:

console.log(URL.createObjectURL(blob));
//Prints: blob:http://stackoverflow.com/7c18953f-f5f8-41d2-abf5-e9cbced9bc42

Don't forget to use the URL including the leading blob prefix. I used document.body again:

image description

You can use this short URL as AJAX target, <script> source or <a> href location. You're responsible for destroying the URL though:

URL.revokeObjectURL('blob:http://stackoverflow.com/7c18953f-f5f8-41d2-abf5-e9cbced9bc42')
