Why is the Android emulator so slow? How can we speed up the Android emulator?

The older Android versions run a lot faster. When I'm on my netbook, I use Android 1.5 (API level 3). There are a couple of drawbacks, though--your apps need to support the older platforms (obviously), and ndk-gdb requires running Android 2.2 (API level 8) or higher. But regularly testing apps against older platforms is a good idea anyway.

Eclipse "cannot find the tag library descriptor" for custom tags (not JSTL!)

I was having the same problem using Tomcat 6.0 and Eclipse and I tried out something which my friend suggested and it worked for me. The link for the question I asked and my reply commented can be found here:

JSTL Tomcat 6.0 Cannot find the taglib descriptor Error

Let me know if this solves your "Cannot find the taglibrary descriptor" problem.

Global Angular CLI version greater than local version

if you upgraded your Angular Version, you need to change the version of

@angular-devkit/build-angular

inside your

package.json

from your old version to the new angular build version upgraded.

I had upgraded to Angular 10, so i needed to go to https://www.npmjs.com/package/@angular-devkit/build-angular and check which is my version according to Angular 10.

In my case, i founded that the version needs to be 0.1001.7, so i changed my old version to this version in my package.json and run

npm --save install

That was enough.

Filter dataframe rows if value in column is in a set list of values

Use the isin method:

rpt[rpt['STK_ID'].isin(stk_list)]

HAX kernel module is not installed

Since most modern CPUs support virtualization natively, the reason you received such message can be because virtualization is turned off on your machine. For example, that was the case on my HP laptop - the factory setting for hardware virtualization was "Disabled". So, go to your machine's BIOS and enable virtualization.

printf and long double

If you are using MinGW, the problem is that by default, MinGW uses the I/O resp. formatting functions from the Microsoft C runtime, which doesn't support 80 bit floating point numbers (long double == double in Microsoft land).

However, MinGW also comes with a set of alternative implementations that do properly support long doubles. To use them, prefix the function names with __mingw_ (e.g. __mingw_printf). Depending on the nature of your project, you might also want to globally #define printf __mingw_printf or use -D__USE_MINGW_ANSI_STDIO (which enables the MinGW versions of all the printf-family functions).

How to increment a JavaScript variable using a button press event

Yes.

<head>
<script type='javascript'>
var x = 0;
</script>
</head>
<body>
  <input type='button' onclick='x++;'/>
</body>

[Psuedo code, god I hope this is right.]

Clearing an input text field in Angular2

1. First Method

you have to assign null or empty string here

this.searchValue = null;
//or
this.searchValue = ' ';

Working Plunker

because no event is being fired from angular change detection. so you have to assign some value either null or string with space

2. Second Method

use of [(ngModel)] it should work with ngModel.

why ?

because as you did binding with value attribute which is only property binding not event binding. so angular doesn't run change detection because no event relevant to Angular is fired. If you bind to an event then Angular runs change detection and the binding works and value should be changes.

see working example of same with ngModel

How to set MouseOver event/trigger for border in XAML?

Yes, this is confusing...

According to this blog post, it looks like this is an omission from WPF.

To make it work you need to use a style:

    <Border Name="ClearButtonBorder" Grid.Column="1" CornerRadius="0,3,3,0">
        <Border.Style>
            <Style>
                <Setter Property="Border.Background" Value="Blue"/>
                <Style.Triggers>
                    <Trigger Property="Border.IsMouseOver" Value="True">
                        <Setter Property="Border.Background" Value="Green" />
                    </Trigger>
                </Style.Triggers>
            </Style>
        </Border.Style>
        <TextBlock HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Center" Text="X" />
    </Border>

I guess this problem isn't that common as most people tend to factor out this sort of thing into a style, so it can be used on multiple controls.

How can I create a Java method that accepts a variable number of arguments?

This is known as varargs see the link here for more details

In past java releases, a method that took an arbitrary number of values required you to create an array and put the values into the array prior to invoking the method. For example, here is how one used the MessageFormat class to format a message:

Object[] arguments = {
    new Integer(7),
    new Date(),
    "a disturbance in the Force"
};
    String result = MessageFormat.format(
        "At {1,time} on {1,date}, there was {2} on planet "
         + "{0,number,integer}.", arguments);

It is still true that multiple arguments must be passed in an array, but the varargs feature automates and hides the process. Furthermore, it is upward compatible with preexisting APIs. So, for example, the MessageFormat.format method now has this declaration:

public static String format(String pattern,
                            Object... arguments);

Get $_POST from multiple checkboxes

<input type="checkbox" name="check_list[<? echo $row['Report ID'] ?>]" value="<? echo $row['Report ID'] ?>">

And after the post, you can loop through them:

   if(!empty($_POST['check_list'])){
     foreach($_POST['check_list'] as $report_id){
        echo "$report_id was checked! ";
     }
   }

Or get a certain value posted from previous page:

if(isset($_POST['check_list'][$report_id])){
  echo $report_id . " was checked!<br/>";
}

How can I use async/await at the top level?

To give some further info on top of current answers:

The contents of a node.js file are currently concatenated, in a string-like way, to form a function body.

For example if you have a file test.js:

// Amazing test file!
console.log('Test!');

Then node.js will secretly concatenate a function that looks like:

function(require, __dirname, ... perhaps more top-level properties) {
  // Amazing test file!
  console.log('Test!');
}

The major thing to note, is that the resulting function is NOT an async function. So you cannot use the term await directly inside of it!

But say you need to work with promises in this file, then there are two possible methods:

Don't use await directly inside the function
Don't use await

Option 1 requires us to create a new scope (and this scope can be async, because we have control over it):

// Amazing test file!
// Create a new async function (a new scope) and immediately call it!
(async () => {
  await new Promise(...);
  console.log('Test!');
})();

Option 2 requires us to use the object-oriented promise API (the less pretty but equally functional paradigm of working with promises)

// Amazing test file!
// Create some sort of promise...
let myPromise = new Promise(...);

// Now use the object-oriented API
myPromise.then(() => console.log('Test!'));

It would be interesting to see node add support for top-level await!

Fixing broken UTF-8 encoding

I had a problem with an xml file that had a broken encoding, it said it was utf-8 but it had characters that where not utf-8.
After several trials and errors with the mb_convert_encoding() I manage to fix it with

mb_convert_encoding($text, 'Windows-1252', 'UTF-8')

Running PHP script from the command line

UPDATE:

After misunderstanding, I finally got what you are trying to do. You should check your server configuration files; are you using apache2 or some other server software?

Look for lines that start with LoadModule php... There probably are configuration files/directories named mods or something like that, start from there.

You could also check output from php -r 'phpinfo();' | grep php and compare lines to phpinfo(); from web server.

To run `php` interactively:

(so you can paste/write code in the console)

php -a

To make it parse file and output to console:

php -f file.php

Parse file and output to another file:

php -f file.php > results.html

Do you need something else?

To run only small part, one line or like, you can use:

php -r '$x = "Hello World"; echo "$x\n";'

If you are running linux then do man php at console.

if you need/want to run php through fpm, use cli fcgi

SCRIPT_NAME="file.php" SCRIP_FILENAME="file.php" REQUEST_METHOD="GET" cgi-fcgi -bind -connect "/var/run/php-fpm/php-fpm.sock"

where /var/run/php-fpm/php-fpm.sock is your php-fpm socket file.

Search All Fields In All Tables For A Specific Value (Oracle)

Modifying the code to search case-insensitively using a LIKE query instead of finding exact matches...

DECLARE
  match_count INTEGER;
  -- Type the owner of the tables you want to search.
  v_owner VARCHAR2(255) :='USER';
  -- Type the data type you're looking for (in CAPS). Examples include: VARCHAR2, NUMBER, etc.
  v_data_type VARCHAR2(255) :='VARCHAR2';
  -- Type the string you are looking for.
  v_search_string VARCHAR2(4000) :='Test';
BEGIN
  dbms_output.put_line( 'Starting the search...' );
  FOR t IN (SELECT table_name, column_name FROM all_tab_cols where owner=v_owner and data_type = v_data_type) LOOP
    EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 
    'SELECT COUNT(*) FROM '||t.table_name||' WHERE LOWER('||t.column_name||') LIKE :1'
    INTO match_count
    USING LOWER('%'||v_search_string||'%');
    IF match_count > 0 THEN
      dbms_output.put_line( t.table_name ||' '||t.column_name||' '||match_count );
    END IF;
  END LOOP;
END;

How to output something in PowerShell

You simply cannot get PowerShell to ommit those pesky newlines. There is no script or cmdlet that does this.

Of course Write-Host is absolute nonsense because you can't redirect/pipe from it! You simply have to write your own:

using System;

namespace WriteToStdout
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            if (args != null)
            {
                Console.Write(string.Join(" ", args));
            }
        }
    }
}

E.g.

PS C:\> writetostdout finally I can write to stdout like echo -n
finally I can write to stdout like echo -nPS C:\>

Best way to require all files from a directory in ruby?

Dir[File.dirname(__FILE__) + '/../lib/*.rb'].each do |file| 
  require File.basename(file, File.extname(file))
end

If you don't strip the extension then you may end up requiring the same file twice (ruby won't realize that "foo" and "foo.rb" are the same file). Requiring the same file twice can lead to spurious warnings (e.g. "warning: already initialized constant").

jQuery validate: How to add a rule for regular expression validation?

we mainly use the markup notation of jquery validation plugin and the posted samples did not work for us, when flags are present in the regex, e.g.

<input type="text" name="myfield" regex="/^[0-9]{3}$/i" />

therefore we use the following snippet

$.validator.addMethod(
        "regex",
        function(value, element, regstring) {
            // fast exit on empty optional
            if (this.optional(element)) {
                return true;
            }

            var regParts = regstring.match(/^\/(.*?)\/([gim]*)$/);
            if (regParts) {
                // the parsed pattern had delimiters and modifiers. handle them. 
                var regexp = new RegExp(regParts[1], regParts[2]);
            } else {
                // we got pattern string without delimiters
                var regexp = new RegExp(regstring);
            }

            return regexp.test(value);
        },
        "Please check your input."
);

Of course now one could combine this code, with one of the above to also allow passing RegExp objects into the plugin, but since we didn't needed it we left this exercise for the reader ;-).

PS: there is also bundled plugin for that, https://github.com/jzaefferer/jquery-validation/blob/master/src/additional/pattern.js

Remove spaces from std::string in C++

I'm afraid it's the best solution that I can think of. But you can use reserve() to pre-allocate the minimum required memory in advance to speed up things a bit. You'll end up with a new string that will probably be shorter but that takes up the same amount of memory, but you'll avoid reallocations.

EDIT: Depending on your situation, this may incur less overhead than jumbling characters around.

You should try different approaches and see what is best for you: you might not have any performance issues at all.

How to style icon color, size, and shadow of Font Awesome Icons

Try to simply use something like fa-lg,fa-2x,fa-3x,fa-4x,fa-5x to increase the icon size relative to their container

for eg:-

Convert HTML to NSAttributedString in iOS

Using of NSHTMLTextDocumentType is slow and it is hard to control styles. I suggest you to try my library which is called Atributika. It has its own very fast HTML parser. Also you can have any tag names and define any style for them.

Example:

let str = "<strong>Hello</strong> World!".style(tags:
    Style("strong").font(.boldSystemFont(ofSize: 15))).attributedString

label.attributedText = str

You can find it here https://github.com/psharanda/Atributika

Change "on" color of a Switch

As an addition to existing answers: you can customize thumb and track using selectors in res/color folder, for example:

switch_track_selector

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<selector
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <item android:color="@color/lightBlue"
        android:state_checked="true" />
    <item android:color="@color/grey"/>
</selector>

switch_thumb_selector

<selector
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <item android:color="@color/darkBlue"
        android:state_checked="true" />
    <item android:color="@color/white"/>
</selector>

Use these selectors to customize track and thumb tints:

<androidx.appcompat.widget.SwitchCompat
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    app:trackTint="@color/switch_track_selector"
    app:thumbTint="@color/switch_thumb_selector"/>

Keep in mind that if you use standart Switch and android namespace for these attributes, it will only work for API 23 and later, so use SwitchCompat with app namespace xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto" as universal solution.

How to create a remote Git repository from a local one?

Normally you can set up a git repo by just using the init command

git init

In your case, there is already a repo on a remote available. Dependent on how you access your remote repo ( with username inside the url or a ssh key which handles verification ) use just the clone command:

git clone git@[my.url.com]:[git-repo-name].git

There are also other ways to clone the repo. This way you call it if you have a ssh key setup on your machine which verifies on pulling your repository. There are other combinations of the url if you want to include your password and username inside to login into your remote repository.

How to display pandas DataFrame of floats using a format string for columns?

As of Pandas 0.17 there is now a styling system which essentially provides formatted views of a DataFrame using Python format strings:

import pandas as pd
import numpy as np

constants = pd.DataFrame([('pi',np.pi),('e',np.e)],
                   columns=['name','value'])
C = constants.style.format({'name': '~~ {} ~~', 'value':'--> {:15.10f} <--'})
C

which displays

This is a view object; the DataFrame itself does not change formatting, but updates in the DataFrame are reflected in the view:

constants.name = ['pie','eek']
C

However it appears to have some limitations:

Adding new rows and/or columns in-place seems to cause inconsistency in the styled view (doesn't add row/column labels):
```
constants.loc[2] = dict(name='bogus', value=123.456)
constants['comment'] = ['fee','fie','fo']
constants
```

which looks ok but:

Formatting works only for values, not index entries:

constants = pd.DataFrame([('pi',np.pi),('e',np.e)],
               columns=['name','value'])
constants.set_index('name',inplace=True)
C = constants.style.format({'name': '~~ {} ~~', 'value':'--> {:15.10f} <--'})
C

Condition within JOIN or WHERE

Joins are quicker in my opinion when you have a larger table. It really isn't that much of a difference though especially if you are dealing with a rather smaller table. When I first learned about joins, i was told that conditions in joins are just like where clause conditions and that i could use them interchangeably if the where clause was specific about which table to do the condition on.

'"SDL.h" no such file or directory found' when compiling

If the header file is /usr/include/sdl/SDL.h and your code has:

#include "SDL.h"

You need to either fix your code:

#include "sdl/SDL.h"

Or tell the preprocessor where to find include files:

CFLAGS = ... -I/usr/include/sdl ...

How to replace an entire line in a text file by line number

Let's suppose you want to replace line 4 with the text "different". You can use AWK like so:

awk '{ if (NR == 4) print "different"; else print $0}' input_file.txt > output_file.txt

AWK considers the input to be "records" divided into "fields". By default, one line is one record. NR is the number of records seen. $0 represents the current complete record (while $1 is the first field from the record and so on; by default the fields are words from the line).

So, if the current line number is 4, print the string "different" but otherwise print the line unchanged.

In AWK, program code enclosed in { } runs once on each input record.

You need to quote the AWK program in single-quotes to keep the shell from trying to interpret things like the $0.

EDIT: A shorter and more elegant AWK program from @chepner in the comments below:

awk 'NR==4 {$0="different"} { print }' input_file.txt

Only for record (i.e. line) number 4, replace the whole record with the string "different". Then for every input record, print the record.

Clearly my AWK skills are rusty! Thank you, @chepner.

EDIT: and see also an even shorter version from @Dennis Williamson:

awk 'NR==4 {$0="different"} 1' input_file.txt

How this works is explained in the comments: the 1 always evaluates true, so the associated code block always runs. But there is no associated code block, which means AWK does its default action of just printing the whole line. AWK is designed to allow terse programs like this.

curl_init() function not working

Reading NFC Tags with iPhone 6 / iOS 8

From digging into the iOS 8 docs that are available as of Sept 9th 3:30pm there is no mention of developer access to the NFC controller to perform any NFC operations; that includes reading tags, writing tags, pairing, payments, tag emulation... Given its an NXP controller the hardware has the capability to perform these features. They did mention a 3rd party app for the watch that allowed a hotel guest to open their room door with NFC. This is a classic use case for NFC and gives some indication that the NFC controller will be open to developers at some point. Remember, the watch is not supposed to be released until Q1 2015. So for now I'd say it's closed but will be open soon. Given the 'newness' of contactless payments for the general US consumer and the recent security breaches its not surprising Apple wants to keep this closed for a while.

Disclosure: Im the CEO of GoToTags, an NFC company with obvious vested interest in Apple opening up NFC to developers.

--- Correction & Update ---

The hotel app actually uses Bluetooth, not NFC. NFC is still often used for door unlocking, just not in this one example. NFC could be used if the watch has an open NFC controller.

I do know that Apple is aware of all of this and is discussing this with their top developers and stakeholders. There has already been massive negative push back on the lack of support for reading tags. As often the case in the past, I expect Apple to eventually open this up to developers for non-payment related functionality (reading tags, pairing). I do not think Apple will ever allow other wallets though. File sharing will likely be left to AirDrop as well.

--- Update on March 23rd 2016 ---

I am continually asked for updates about this topic, often with people referencing this post. With Apple releasing the iPhone SE, many are again asking why Apple has not supported tag reading yet. In summary Apple is more focused on Apple Pay succeeding than the other use cases for NFC for now. Apple could make a lot of money from Apple Pay, and has less to make from the other uses for NFC. Apple will likely open up NFC tag reading when they feel that consumer trust and security with NFC and Apple Pay is such that it wont put Apple Pay at risk. Further information here.

--- Update on May 24th 2017 ---

A developer in Greece has hacked the iPhone 6s to get it to read NFC tags via the NFC private frameworks; more info & video. While this isn't a long term solution, it provides some guidance on some outstanding question: Is there enough power in the iPhone's NFC controller to power an NFC tag? Looks like the answer is yes. From initial testing the range is a few cm, which isn't too bad. It might also be the power is tunable; this is being investigated at this time. The implications of this are significant. If the older model phones do have enough RF power for tag reading/writing, then when Apple does open up the SDK it means there will be 100Ms of iPhones that can read NFC tags, vs the case where only the new iPhones could.

What's the difference between "Layers" and "Tiers"?

Xcode error "Could not find Developer Disk Image"

This problem is a mismatch of your iOS version and Xcode version.

Detect key input in Python

Use Tkinter there are a ton of tutorials online for this. basically, you can create events. Here is a link to a great site! This makes it easy to capture clicks. Also, if you are trying to make a game, Tkinter also has a GUI. Although, I wouldn't recommend Python for games at all, it could be a fun experiment. Good Luck!

Why does C++ compilation take so long?

The slowdown is not necessarily the same with any compiler.

I haven't used Delphi or Kylix but back in the MS-DOS days, a Turbo Pascal program would compile almost instantaneously, while the equivalent Turbo C++ program would just crawl.

The two main differences were a very strong module system and a syntax that allowed single-pass compilation.

It's certainly possible that compilation speed just hasn't been a priority for C++ compiler developers, but there are also some inherent complications in the C/C++ syntax that make it more difficult to process. (I'm not an expert on C, but Walter Bright is, and after building various commercial C/C++ compilers, he created the D language. One of his changes was to enforce a context-free grammar to make the language easier to parse.)

Also, you'll notice that generally Makefiles are set up so that every file is compiled separately in C, so if 10 source files all use the same include file, that include file is processed 10 times.

How to quickly and conveniently disable all console.log statements in my code?

You could use javascript AOP (e.g. jquery-aop) to intercept all calls to console.debug/log (around) and do not proceed with the actual invocation if some global variable is set to false.

You could even do an ajax call (now and then) so you can change the log enabled/disabled behavior on the server which can be very interesting to enable debugging when facing an issue in a staging environment or such.

How to implement a queue using two stacks?

You'll have to pop everything off the first stack to get the bottom element. Then put them all back onto the second stack for every "dequeue" operation.

Entity Framework: One Database, Multiple DbContexts. Is this a bad idea?

In code first, you can have multiple DBContext and just one database. You just have to specify the connection string in the constructor.

public class MovieDBContext : DbContext
{
    public MovieDBContext()
        : base("DefaultConnection")
    {

    }
    public DbSet<Movie> Movies { get; set; }
}

Insert all values of a table into another table in SQL

If you are transferring a lot data permanently, i.e not populating a temp table, I would recommend using SQL Server Import/Export Data for table-to-table mappings.

Import/Export tool is usually better than straight SQL when you have type conversions and possible value truncation in your mapping. Generally, the more complex your mapping, the more productive you are using an ETL tool like Integration Services (SSIS) instead of direct SQL.

Import/Export tool is actually an SSIS wizard, and you can save your work as a dtsx package.

What is class="mb-0" in Bootstrap 4?

class="mb-0"

m - sets margin

b - sets bottom margin or padding

0 - sets 0 margin or padding

CSS class

     }

Random element from string array

Just store the index generated in a variable, and then access the array using this varaible:

int idx = new Random().nextInt(fruits.length);
String random = (fruits[idx]);

P.S. I usually don't like generating new Random object per randoization - I prefer using a single Random in the program - and re-use it. It allows me to easily reproduce a problematic sequence if I later find any bug in the program.

According to this approach, I will have some variable Random r somewhere, and I will just use:

int idx = r.nextInt(fruits.length)

However, your approach is OK as well, but you might have hard time reproducing a specific sequence if you need to later on.

OnChange event handler for radio button (INPUT type="radio") doesn't work as one value

This is just off the top of my head, but you could do an onClick event for each radio button, give them all different IDs, and then make a for loop in the event to go through each radio button in the group and find which is was checked by looking at the 'checked' attribute. The id of the checked one would be stored as a variable, but you might want to use a temp variable first to make sure that the value of that variable changed, since the click event would fire whether or not a new radio button was checked.

VB.NET Switch Statement GoTo Case

Why don't you just refactor the default case as a method and call it from both places? This should be more readable and will allow you to change the code later in a more efficient manner.

Angular 4 default radio button checked by default

You can use [(ngModel)], but you'll need to update your value to [value] otherwise the value is evaluating as a string. It would look like this:

<label>This rule is true if:</label>
<label class="form-check-inline">
    <input class="form-check-input" type="radio" name="mode" [value]="true" [(ngModel)]="rule.mode">
</label>
<label class="form-check-inline">
    <input class="form-check-input" type="radio" name="mode" [value]="false" [(ngModel)]="rule.mode">
</label>

If rule.mode is true, then that radio is selected. If it's false, then the other.

The difference really comes down to the value. value="true" really evaluates to the string 'true', whereas [value]="true" evaluates to the boolean true.

PHP DateTime __construct() Failed to parse time string (xxxxxxxx) at position x

This worked for me.

print(user + "typed" + line + "lines")

How do I determine height and scrolling position of window in jQuery?

from http://api.jquery.com/height/ (Note: The difference between the use for the window and the document object)

$(window).height();   // returns height of browser viewport
$(document).height(); // returns height of HTML document

from http://api.jquery.com/scrollTop/

$(window).scrollTop() // return the number of pixels scrolled vertically

How do I remove all HTML tags from a string without knowing which tags are in it?

You can parse the string using Html Agility pack and get the InnerText.

    HtmlDocument htmlDoc = new HtmlDocument();
    htmlDoc.LoadHtml(@"<b> Hulk Hogan's Celebrity Championship Wrestling &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<font color=\"#228b22\">[Proj # 206010]</font></b>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (Reality Series, &nbsp;)");
    string result = htmlDoc.DocumentNode.InnerText;

Include PHP file into HTML file

Create a .htaccess file in directory and add this code to .htaccess file

AddHandler x-httpd-php .html .htm

AddType application/x-httpd-php .html .htm

It will force Apache server to parse HTML or HTM files as PHP Script

What is the difference between Bootstrap .container and .container-fluid classes?

You are right in 3.1 .container-fluid and .container are same and works like container but if you remove them it works like .container-fluid (full width). They had removed .container-fluid for "Mobile First Approach", but now it's back in 3.3.4 (and they will work differently)

To get latest bootstrap please read this post on stackoverflow it will help check it out.

Visual Studio Code - Convert spaces to tabs

how to display toolbox on the left side of window of Visual Studio Express for windows phone 7 development?

Ctrl-Alt-X is the keyboard shortcut I use, although that may because I have Resharper installed - otherwise Ctrl W, X.

From the menu: View -> Toolbox.

You can easily view/change key bindings using Tools -> Options Environment->Keyboard. It has a convenient UI where you can enter a word, and it shows you what key bindings include that word, including View.Toolbox.

You might want to browse through the online MSDN documentation on getting started with Visual Studio.

Best way to "push" into C# array

I surggest using the CopyTo method, so here is my two cent on a solution that is easy to explain and simple. The CopyTo method copies the array to another array at a given index. In this case myArray is copied to newArr starting at index 1 so index 0 in newArr can hold the new value.

"Push" to array online demo

var newValue = 1;
var myArray = new int[5] { 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 };
var newArr = new int[myArray.Length + 1];

myArray.CopyTo(newArr, 1);
newArr[0] = newValue;
    
//debug
for(var i = 0; i < newArr.Length; i++){
    Console.WriteLine(newArr[i].ToString());
}

//output

ORA-01031: insufficient privileges when selecting view

Q. When is the "with grant option" required ?

A. when you have a view executed from a third schema.

Example: schema DSDSW has a view called view_name

a) that view selects from a table in another schema  (FDR.balance)
b) a third shema  X_WORK  tries to select  from that view

Typical grants: grant select on dsdw.view_name to dsdw_select_role; grant dsdw_select_role to fdr;

But: fdr gets select count(*) from dsdw.view_name; ERROR at line 1: ORA-01031: insufficient privileges

issue the grant:

grant select on fdr.balance to dsdw with grant option;

now fdr: select count(*) from dsdw.view_name; 5 rows

MySQL - Replace Character in Columns

maybe I'd go by this.

 SQL = SELECT REPLACE(myColumn, '""', '\'') FROM myTable

I used singlequotes because that's the one that registers string expressions in MySQL, or so I believe.

Hope that helps.

How to amend a commit without changing commit message (reusing the previous one)?

git commit -C HEAD --amend will do what you want. The -C option takes the metadata from another commit.

What does the ^ (XOR) operator do?

A little more information on XOR operation.

XOR a number with itself odd number of times the result is number itself.
XOR a number even number of times with itself, the result is 0.
Also XOR with 0 is always the number itself.

Java int to String - Integer.toString(i) vs new Integer(i).toString()

Here Integer.toString calls the static method in the class Integer. It does not require the object to call.

If you call new Integer(i) you first create an instance of type Integer, which is a full Java object encapsulating the value of your int i. Then you call the toString method on it to ask it to return a string representation of itself.

How to use the 'main' parameter in package.json?

One important function of the main key is that it provides the path for your entry point. This is very helpful when working with nodemon. If you work with nodemon and you define the main key in your package.json as let say "main": "./src/server/app.js", then you can simply crank up the server with typing nodemon in the CLI with root as pwd instead of nodemon ./src/server/app.js.

How do I programmatically set the value of a select box element using JavaScript?

Why not add a variable for the element's Id and make it a reusable function?

How to jump to top of browser page

You can set the scrollTop, like this:

Or if you want a little animation instead of a snap to the top:

$('html, body').animate({ scrollTop: 0 }, 'fast');

How to draw a line with matplotlib?

I was checking how ax.axvline does work, and I've written a small function that resembles part of its idea:

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import matplotlib.lines as mlines

def newline(p1, p2):
    ax = plt.gca()
    xmin, xmax = ax.get_xbound()

    if(p2[0] == p1[0]):
        xmin = xmax = p1[0]
        ymin, ymax = ax.get_ybound()
    else:
        ymax = p1[1]+(p2[1]-p1[1])/(p2[0]-p1[0])*(xmax-p1[0])
        ymin = p1[1]+(p2[1]-p1[1])/(p2[0]-p1[0])*(xmin-p1[0])

    l = mlines.Line2D([xmin,xmax], [ymin,ymax])
    ax.add_line(l)
    return l

So, if you run the following code you will realize how does it work. The line will span the full range of your plot (independently on how big it is), and the creation of the line doesn't rely on any data point within the axis, but only in two fixed points that you need to specify.

import numpy as np
x = np.linspace(0,10)
y = x**2

p1 = [1,20]
p2 = [6,70]

plt.plot(x, y)
newline(p1,p2)
plt.show()

jQuery change method on input type="file"

I could not get IE8+ to work by adding a jQuery event handler to the file input type. I had to go old-school and add the the onchange="" attribute to the input tag:

<input type='file' onchange='getFilename(this)'/>

function getFileName(elm) {
   var fn = $(elm).val();
   ....
}

EDIT:

function getFileName(elm) {
   var fn = $(elm).val();
   var filename = fn.match(/[^\\/]*$/)[0]; // remove C:\fakename
   alert(filename);
}

How do I define a method in Razor?

It's very simple to define a function inside razor.

@functions {

    public static HtmlString OrderedList(IEnumerable<string> items)
    { }
}

So you can call a the function anywhere. Like

@Functions.OrderedList(new[] { "Blue", "Red", "Green" })

However, this same work can be done through helper too. As an example

@helper OrderedList(IEnumerable<string> items){
    <ol>
        @foreach(var item in items){
            <li>@item</li>
        }
    </ol>
}

So what is the difference?? According to this previous post both @helpers and @functions do share one thing in common - they make code reuse a possibility within Web Pages. They also share another thing in common - they look the same at first glance, which is what might cause a bit of confusion about their roles. However, they are not the same. In essence, a helper is a reusable snippet of Razor sytnax exposed as a method, and is intended for rendering HTML to the browser, whereas a function is static utility method that can be called from anywhere within your Web Pages application. The return type for a helper is always HelperResult, whereas the return type for a function is whatever you want it to be.

python catch exception and continue try block

special_func to avoid try-except repetition:

def special_func(test_case_dict):
    final_dict = {}
    exception_dict = {}

    def try_except_avoider(test_case_dict):

        try:
            for k,v in test_case_dict.items():
                final_dict[k]=eval(v) #If no exception evaluate the function and add it to final_dict

        except Exception as e:
            exception_dict[k]=e #extract exception
            test_case_dict.pop(k)
            try_except_avoider(test_case_dict) #recursive function to handle remaining functions

        finally:  #cleanup
            final_dict.update(exception_dict)
            return final_dict #combine exception dict and  final dict

    return try_except_avoider(test_case_dict)

Run code:

def add(a,b):
    return (a+b)
def sub(a,b):
    return (a-b)
def mul(a,b):
    return (a*b)

case = {"AddFunc":"add(8,8)","SubFunc":"sub(p,5)","MulFunc":"mul(9,6)"}
solution = special_func(case)

Output looks like:

{'AddFunc': 16, 'MulFunc': 54, 'SubFunc': NameError("name 'p' is not defined")}

To convert to variables:

locals().update(solution)

Variables would look like:

AddFunc = 16, MulFunc = 54, SubFunc = NameError("name 'p' is not defined")

Struct inheritance in C++

In C++, a structure's inheritance is the same as a class except the following differences:

When deriving a struct from a class/struct, the default access-specifier for a base class/struct is public. And when deriving a class, the default access specifier is private.

For example, program 1 fails with a compilation error and program 2 works fine.

// Program 1
#include <stdio.h>

class Base {
    public:
        int x;
};

class Derived : Base { }; // Is equivalent to class Derived : private Base {}

int main()
{
    Derived d;
    d.x = 20; // Compiler error because inheritance is private
    getchar();
    return 0;
}

// Program 2
#include <stdio.h>

struct Base {
    public:
        int x;
};

struct Derived : Base { }; // Is equivalent to struct Derived : public Base {}

int main()
{
    Derived d;
    d.x = 20; // Works fine because inheritance is public
    getchar();
    return 0;
}

python how to pad numpy array with zeros

Very simple, you create an array containing zeros using the reference shape:

result = np.zeros(b.shape)
# actually you can also use result = np.zeros_like(b) 
# but that also copies the dtype not only the shape

and then insert the array where you need it:

result[:a.shape[0],:a.shape[1]] = a

and voila you have padded it:

print(result)
array([[ 1.,  1.,  1.,  1.,  1.,  0.],
       [ 1.,  1.,  1.,  1.,  1.,  0.],
       [ 1.,  1.,  1.,  1.,  1.,  0.],
       [ 0.,  0.,  0.,  0.,  0.,  0.]])

You can also make it a bit more general if you define where your upper left element should be inserted

result = np.zeros_like(b)
x_offset = 1  # 0 would be what you wanted
y_offset = 1  # 0 in your case
result[x_offset:a.shape[0]+x_offset,y_offset:a.shape[1]+y_offset] = a
result

array([[ 0.,  0.,  0.,  0.,  0.,  0.],
       [ 0.,  1.,  1.,  1.,  1.,  1.],
       [ 0.,  1.,  1.,  1.,  1.,  1.],
       [ 0.,  1.,  1.,  1.,  1.,  1.]])

but then be careful that you don't have offsets bigger than allowed. For x_offset = 2 for example this will fail.

If you have an arbitary number of dimensions you can define a list of slices to insert the original array. I've found it interesting to play around a bit and created a padding function that can pad (with offset) an arbitary shaped array as long as the array and reference have the same number of dimensions and the offsets are not too big.

def pad(array, reference, offsets):
    """
    array: Array to be padded
    reference: Reference array with the desired shape
    offsets: list of offsets (number of elements must be equal to the dimension of the array)
    """
    # Create an array of zeros with the reference shape
    result = np.zeros(reference.shape)
    # Create a list of slices from offset to offset + shape in each dimension
    insertHere = [slice(offset[dim], offset[dim] + array.shape[dim]) for dim in range(a.ndim)]
    # Insert the array in the result at the specified offsets
    result[insertHere] = a
    return result

And some test cases:

import numpy as np

# 1 Dimension
a = np.ones(2)
b = np.ones(5)
offset = [3]
pad(a, b, offset)

# 3 Dimensions

a = np.ones((3,3,3))
b = np.ones((5,4,3))
offset = [1,0,0]
pad(a, b, offset)

IntelliJ IDEA JDK configuration on Mac OS

If you are on Mac OS X or Ubuntu, the problem is caused by the symlinks to the JDK. File | Invalidate Caches should help. If it doesn't, specify the JDK path to the direct JDK Home folder, not a symlink.

Invalidate Caches menu item is available under IntelliJ IDEA File menu.

Direct JDK path after the recent Apple Java update is:

/System/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/1.6.0.jdk/Contents/Home

In IDEA you can configure the new JSDK in File | Project Structure, select SDKs on the left, then press [+] button, then specify the above JDK home path, you should get something like this:

show and hide divs based on radio button click

You're on the right track, but you forgot two things:

add the desc classes to your description divs
You have numeric values for the input but text for the id.

I have fixed the above and also added a line to initially hide() the third description div.

Check it out in action - http://jsfiddle.net/VgAgu/3/

HTML

<div id="myRadioGroup">
    2 Cars<input type="radio" name="cars" checked="checked" value="2"  />
    3 Cars<input type="radio" name="cars" value="3" />

    <div id="Cars2" class="desc">
        2 Cars Selected
    </div>
    <div id="Cars3" class="desc" style="display: none;">
        3 Cars
    </div>
</div>

JQuery

$(document).ready(function() {
    $("input[name$='cars']").click(function() {
        var test = $(this).val();

        $("div.desc").hide();
        $("#Cars" + test).show();
    });

How to add a Browse To File dialog to a VB.NET application

You should use the OpenFileDialog class like this

Dim fd As OpenFileDialog = New OpenFileDialog() 
Dim strFileName As String

fd.Title = "Open File Dialog"
fd.InitialDirectory = "C:\"
fd.Filter = "All files (*.*)|*.*|All files (*.*)|*.*"
fd.FilterIndex = 2
fd.RestoreDirectory = True

If fd.ShowDialog() = DialogResult.OK Then
   strFileName = fd.FileName
End If

Then you can use the File class.

ValueError: not enough values to unpack (expected 11, got 1)

For the line

line.split()

What are you splitting on? Looks like a CSV, so try

line.split(',')

Example:

"one,two,three".split()  # returns one element ["one,two,three"]
"one,two,three".split(',')  # returns three elements ["one", "two", "three"]

As @TigerhawkT3 mentions, it would be better to use the CSV module. Incredibly quick and easy method available here.

How to convert An NSInteger to an int?

Maximum size of a varchar(max) variable

EDIT: After further investigation, my original assumption that this was an anomaly (bug?) of the declare @var datatype = value syntax is incorrect.

I modified your script for 2005 since that syntax is not supported, then tried the modified version on 2008. In 2005, I get the Attempting to grow LOB beyond maximum allowed size of 2147483647 bytes. error message. In 2008, the modified script is still successful.

declare @KMsg varchar(max); set @KMsg = REPLICATE('a',1024);
declare @MMsg varchar(max); set @MMsg = REPLICATE(@KMsg,1024);
declare @GMsg varchar(max); set @GMsg = REPLICATE(@MMsg,1024);
declare @GGMMsg varchar(max); set @GGMMsg = @GMsg + @GMsg + @MMsg;

How to programmatically set the layout_align_parent_right attribute of a Button in Relative Layout?

For adding a RelativeLayout attribute whose value is true or false use 0 for false and RelativeLayout.TRUE for true:

RelativeLayout.LayoutParams params = (RelativeLayout.LayoutParams) button.getLayoutParams()
params.addRule(RelativeLayout.ALIGN_PARENT_RIGHT, RelativeLayout.TRUE)

It doesn't matter whether or not the attribute was already added, you still use addRule(verb, subject) to enable/disable it. However, post-API 17 you can use removeRule(verb) which is just a shortcut for addRule(verb, 0).

Base64 encoding and decoding in oracle

Solution with utl_encode.base64_encode and utl_encode.base64_decode have one limitation, they work only with strings up to 32,767 characters/bytes.

In case you have to convert bigger strings you will face several obstacles.

For BASE64_ENCODE the function has to read 3 Bytes and transform them. In case of Multi-Byte characters (e.g. öäüè€ stored at UTF-8, aka AL32UTF8) 3 Character are not necessarily also 3 Bytes. In order to read always 3 Bytes you have to convert your CLOB into BLOB first.
The same problem applies for BASE64_DECODE. The function has to read 4 Bytes and transform them into 3 Bytes. Those 3 Bytes are not necessarily also 3 Characters
Typically a BASE64-String has NEW_LINE (CR and/or LF) character each 64 characters. Such new-line characters have to be ignored while decoding.

Taking all this into consideration the full featured solution could be this one:

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION DecodeBASE64(InBase64Char IN OUT NOCOPY CLOB) RETURN CLOB IS

    blob_loc BLOB;
    clob_trim CLOB;
    res CLOB;

    src_offset INTEGER := 1;
    read_offset INTEGER := 1;
    warning INTEGER;
    ClobLen INTEGER := DBMS_LOB.GETLENGTH(InBase64Char);

    amount INTEGER := 1440; -- must be a whole multiple of 4
    buffer RAW(1440);
    stringBuffer VARCHAR2(1440);
    -- BASE64 characters are always simple ASCII. Thus you get never any Mulit-Byte character and having the same size as 'amount' is sufficient

BEGIN

    IF InBase64Char IS NULL OR NVL(ClobLen, 0) = 0 THEN 
        RETURN NULL;
    ELSIF ClobLen<= 32000 THEN
        RETURN UTL_RAW.CAST_TO_VARCHAR2(UTL_ENCODE.BASE64_DECODE(UTL_RAW.CAST_TO_RAW(InBase64Char)));
    END IF;        
    -- UTL_ENCODE.BASE64_DECODE is limited to 32k, process in chunks if bigger    

    -- Remove all NEW_LINE from base64 string
    ClobLen := DBMS_LOB.GETLENGTH(InBase64Char);
    DBMS_LOB.CREATETEMPORARY(clob_trim, TRUE);
    LOOP
        EXIT WHEN read_offset > ClobLen;
        stringBuffer := REPLACE(REPLACE(DBMS_LOB.SUBSTR(InBase64Char, amount, read_offset), CHR(13), NULL), CHR(10), NULL);
        DBMS_LOB.WRITEAPPEND(clob_trim, LENGTH(stringBuffer), stringBuffer);
        read_offset := read_offset + amount;
    END LOOP;

    read_offset := 1;

        read_offset := read_offset + amount;
    END LOOP;

    DBMS_LOB.CREATETEMPORARY(res, TRUE);
    DBMS_LOB.CONVERTTOCLOB(res, blob_loc, DBMS_LOB.LOBMAXSIZE, dest_offset, src_offset,  DBMS_LOB.DEFAULT_CSID, lang_context, warning);

    DBMS_LOB.FREETEMPORARY(blob_loc);
    DBMS_LOB.FREETEMPORARY(clob_trim);
    RETURN res;    

END DecodeBASE64;

HTTP GET in VB.NET

In VB.NET:

Dim webClient As New System.Net.WebClient
Dim result As String = webClient.DownloadString("http://api.hostip.info/?ip=68.180.206.184")

In C#:

System.Net.WebClient webClient = new System.Net.WebClient();
string result = webClient.DownloadString("http://api.hostip.info/?ip=68.180.206.184");

No visible cause for "Unexpected token ILLEGAL"

I had this same problem and it occurred because I had hit the enter key when adding code in a text string.

Because it was a long string of text I wanted to see it all without having to scroll in my text editor, however hitting enter added an invisible character to the string which was illegal. I was using Sublime Text as my editor.

What does 'low in coupling and high in cohesion' mean

I think you have red so many definitions but in the case you still have doubts or In case you are new to programming and want to go deep into this then I will suggest you to watch this video, https://youtu.be/HpJTGW9AwX0 It's just reference to get more info about polymorphism... Hope you get better understanding with this

What's the difference between an argument and a parameter?

Parameter is variable in the declaration of function.

Argument is the actual value of this variable that gets passed to function.

Fastest JavaScript summation

While searching for the best method to sum an array, I wrote a performance test.

In Chrome, "reduce" seems to be vastly superior

I hope this helps

// Performance test, sum of an array
  var array = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10];
  var result = 0;
// Eval
  console.time("eval");
  for(var i = 0; i < 10000; i++) eval("result = (" + array.join("+") + ")");
  console.timeEnd("eval");
// Loop
  console.time("loop");
  for(var i = 0; i < 10000; i++){
    result = 0;
    for(var j = 0; j < array.length; j++){
      result += parseInt(array[j]);
    }
  }
  console.timeEnd("loop");
// Reduce
  console.time("reduce");
  for(var i = 0; i < 10000; i++) result = array.reduce(function(pv, cv) { return pv + parseInt(cv); }, 0);
  console.timeEnd("reduce");
// While
  console.time("while");
  for(var i = 0; i < 10000; i++){
    j = array.length;
    result = 0;
    while(j--) result += array[i];
  }
  console.timeEnd("while");

eval: 5233.000ms

loop: 255.000ms

reduce: 70.000ms

while: 214.000ms

Using curl to upload POST data with files

Catching the user id as path variable (recommended):

curl -i -X POST -H "Content-Type: multipart/form-data" 
-F "[email protected]" http://mysuperserver/media/1234/upload/

Catching the user id as part of the form:

curl -i -X POST -H "Content-Type: multipart/form-data" 
-F "[email protected];userid=1234" http://mysuperserver/media/upload/

or:

curl -i -X POST -H "Content-Type: multipart/form-data" 
-F "[email protected]" -F "userid=1234" http://mysuperserver/media/upload/

Django auto_now and auto_now_add

Is this cause for concern?

No, Django automatically adds it for you while saving the models, so, it is expected.

Side question: in my admin tool, those 2 fields aren't showing up. Is that expected?

Since these fields are auto added, they are not shown.

To add to the above, as synack said, there has been a debate on the django mailing list to remove this, because, it is "not designed well" and is "a hack"

Writing a custom save() on each of my models is much more pain than using the auto_now

Obviously you don't have to write it to every model. You can write it to one model and inherit others from it.

But, as auto_add and auto_now_add are there, I would use them rather than trying to write a method myself.

Scroll RecyclerView to show selected item on top

Try what worked for me cool!

Create a variable private static int displayedposition = 0;

Now for the position of your RecyclerView in your Activity.

myRecyclerView.setOnScrollListener(new RecyclerView.OnScrollListener() {
            @Override
            public void onScrollStateChanged(RecyclerView recyclerView, int newState) {
                super.onScrollStateChanged(recyclerView, newState);
            }

            @Override
            public void onScrolled(RecyclerView recyclerView, int dx, int dy) {
                super.onScrolled(recyclerView, dx, dy);

                LinearLayoutManager llm = (LinearLayoutManager) myRecyclerView.getLayoutManager();


                displayedposition = llm.findFirstVisibleItemPosition();


            }
        });

Place this statement where you want it to place the former site displayed in your view .

LinearLayoutManager llm = (LinearLayoutManager) mRecyclerView.getLayoutManager();
        llm.scrollToPositionWithOffset(displayedposition , youList.size());

Well that's it , it worked fine for me \o/

How to hide Table Row Overflow?

If javascript is accepted as an answer, I made a jQuery plugin to address this issue (for more information about the issue see CSS: Truncate table cells, but fit as much as possible).

To use the plugin just type

$('selector').tableoverflow();

Plugin: https://github.com/marcogrcr/jquery-tableoverflow

Android marshmallow request permission?

From Android Marshmallow(API 23) and above by default all dangerous permission ( as per official doc official doc) disabled. After installation when app open first time then you have to grant permission at Run Time.

I achieved this following way:

public class MarshMallowPermission {

    public static final int EXTERNAL_STORAGE_PERMISSION_REQUEST_CODE_BY_GALLERY = 0;
    public static final int EXTERNAL_STORAGE_PERMISSION_REQUEST_CODE_BY_CAMERA = 1;
    public static final int EXTERNAL_STORAGE_PERMISSION_REQUEST_CODE_BY_LOAD_PROFILE = 2;
    public static final int CAMERA_PERMISSION_REQUEST_CODE = 3;
    public static final int LOCATION_PERMISSION_REQUEST_CODE = 4;
    Activity activity;
    Context mContext;

    public MarshMallowPermission(Activity activity) {
        this.activity = activity;
        this.mContext = activity;
    }

    public boolean checkPermissionForExternalStorage(){
        int result = ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(activity, Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE);
        if (result == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED){
            return true;
        } else {
            return false;
        }
    }

    public boolean checkPermissionForCamera(){
        int result = ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(activity, Manifest.permission.CAMERA);
        if (result == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED){
            return true;
        } else {
            return false;
        }
    }

HTTP status code 0 - Error Domain=NSURLErrorDomain?

We got the error:

GET http://localhost/pathToWebSite/somePage.aspx raised an http.status: 0 error

That call is made from windows task that calls a VBS file, so to troubleshoot the problem, pointed a browser to the url and we get a Privacy Error:

Your connection is not private

Attackers might be trying to steal your information from localhost (for example, passwords, messages, or credit cards). NET::ERR_CERT_COMMON_NAME_INVALID

Automatically report details of possible security incidents to Google. Privacy policy Back to safety This server could not prove that it is localhost; its security certificate is from *.ourdomain.com. This may be caused by a misconfiguration or an attacker intercepting your connection. Learn more.

This is because we have a IIS URL Rewrite rule set to force connections use https. That rule diverts http://localhost to https://localhost but our SSL certificate is based on an outside facing domain name not localhost, thus the error which is reported as status code 0. So a Privacy error could be a very obscure reason for this status code 0.

In our case the solution was to add an exception to the rule for localhost and allow http://localhost/pathToWebSite/somePage.aspx to use http. Obscure, yes, but I'll run into this next year and now I'll find my answer in a google search.

Installing Numpy on 64bit Windows 7 with Python 2.7.3

I've tried Mingw, Cygwin, all failed due to varies reasons. I am on Windows 7 Enterprise, 64bit.

Transactions in .net

You could also wrap the transaction up into it's own stored procedure and handle it that way instead of doing transactions in C# itself.

must declare a named package eclipse because this compilation unit is associated to the named module

Reason of the error: Package name left blank while creating a class. This make use of default package. Thus causes this error.

Quick fix:

Create a package eg. helloWorld inside the src folder.
Move helloWorld.java file in that package. Just drag and drop on the package. Error should disappear.

Explanation:

My Eclipse version: 2020-09 (4.17.0)
My Java version: Java 15, 2020-09-15

Latest version of Eclipse required java11 or above. The module feature is introduced in java9 and onward. It was proposed in 2005 for Java7 but later suspended. Java is object oriented based. And module is the moduler approach which can be seen in language like C. It was harder to implement it, due to which it took long time for the release. Source: Understanding Java 9 Modules

When you create a new project in Eclipse then by default module feature is selected. And in Eclipse-2020-09-R, a pop-up appears which ask for creation of module-info.java file. If you select don't create then module-info.java will not create and your project will free from this issue.

Best practice is while crating project, after giving project name. Click on next button instead of finish. On next page at the bottom it ask for creation of module-info.java file. Select or deselect as per need.

If selected: (by default) click on finish button and give name for module. Now while creating a class don't forget to give package name. Whenever you create a class just give package name. Any name, just don't left it blank.

If deselect: No issue

Difference between HashSet and HashMap?

you pretty much answered your own question - hashset doesn't allow duplicate values. it would be trivial to build a hashset using a backing hashmap (and just a check to see if the value already exists). i guess the various java implementations either do that, or implement some custom code to do it more efficiently.

Username and password in https url

When you put the username and password in front of the host, this data is not sent that way to the server. It is instead transformed to a request header depending on the authentication schema used. Most of the time this is going to be Basic Auth which I describe below. A similar (but significantly less often used) authentication scheme is Digest Auth which nowadays provides comparable security features.

With Basic Auth, the HTTP request from the question will look something like this:

GET / HTTP/1.1
Host: example.com
Authorization: Basic Zm9vOnBhc3N3b3Jk

The hash like string you see there is created by the browser like this: base64_encode(username + ":" + password).

To outsiders of the HTTPS transfer, this information is hidden (as everything else on the HTTP level). You should take care of logging on the client and all intermediate servers though. The username will normally be shown in server logs, but the password won't. This is not guaranteed though. When you call that URL on the client with e.g. curl, the username and password will be clearly visible on the process list and might turn up in the bash history file.

When you send passwords in a GET request as e.g. http://example.com/login.php?username=me&password=secure the username and password will always turn up in server logs of your webserver, application server, caches, ... unless you specifically configure your servers to not log it. This only applies to servers being able to read the unencrypted http data, like your application server or any middleboxes such as loadbalancers, CDNs, proxies, etc. though.

Basic auth is standardized and implemented by browsers by showing this little username/password popup you might have seen already. When you put the username/password into an HTML form sent via GET or POST, you have to implement all the login/logout logic yourself (which might be an advantage and allows you to more control over the login/logout flow for the added "cost" of having to implement this securely again). But you should never transfer usernames and passwords by GET parameters. If you have to, use POST instead. The prevents the logging of this data by default.

When implementing an authentication mechanism with a user/password entry form and a subsequent cookie-based session as it is commonly used today, you have to make sure that the password is either transported with POST requests or one of the standardized authentication schemes above only.

Concluding I could say, that transfering data that way over HTTPS is likely safe, as long as you take care that the password does not turn up in unexpected places. But that advice applies to every transfer of any password in any way.

Git blame -- prior commits?

As of Git 2.23 you can use git blame --ignore-rev

For the example given in the question this would be:

git blame -L10,+1 src/options.cpp --ignore-rev fe25b6d

(however it's a trick question because fe25b6d is the file's first revision!)

How do I select a span containing a specific text value, using jquery?

Why do you use typedef when declaring an enum in C++?

It's a C heritage, in C, if you do :

enum TokenType
{
    blah1   = 0x00000000,
    blah2   = 0X01000000,
    blah3   = 0X02000000
};

you'll have to use it doing something like :

enum TokenType foo;

But if you do this :

typedef enum e_TokenType
{
    blah1   = 0x00000000,
    blah2   = 0X01000000,
    blah3   = 0X02000000
} TokenType;

You'll be able to declare :

TokenType foo;

But in C++, you can use only the former definition and use it as if it were in a C typedef.

Python Pip install Error: Unable to find vcvarsall.bat. Tried all solutions

Try installing this, it's a known workaround for enabling the C++ compiler for Python 2.7.

In my experience, when pip does not find vcvarsall.bat compiler, all I do is opening a Visual Studio console as it set the path variables to call vcvarsall.bat directly and then I run pip on this command line.

How to get the current location latitude and longitude in android

try this, hope it will help you to get the current location, every time the location changes.

public class MyClass implements LocationListener {
    double currentLatitude, currentLongitude;

    public void onLocationChanged(Location location) {
        currentLatitude = location.getLatitude();
        currentLongitude = location.getLongitude();
    }
}

What is the difference between RTP or RTSP in a streaming server?

I think thats correct. RTSP may use RTP internally.

How to enable bulk permission in SQL Server

SQL Server may also return this error if the service account does not have permission to read the file being imported. Ensure that the service account has read access to the file location. For example:

icacls D:\ImportFiles /Grant "NT Service\MSSQLServer":(OI)(CI)R

How to remove "href" with Jquery?

Your title question and your example are completely different. I'll start by answering the title question:

$("a").removeAttr("href");

And as far as not requiring an href, the generally accepted way of doing this is:

<a href"#" onclick="doWork(); return false;">link</a>

The return false is necessary so that the href doesn't actually go anywhere.

How can I add additional PHP versions to MAMP

The easiest solution I found is to just rename the php folder version as such:

Shut down the servers
Rename the folder containing the php version that you don't need in /Applications/MAMP/bin/php. php7.3.9 --> _php7.3.9

That way only two of them will be read by MAMP. Done!

How to get Django and ReactJS to work together?

Hoping to provide a more nuanced answer than any of the ones here, especially as some things have changed since this was originally asked ~4 years ago, and because many of the top-voted answers claiming that you have to set this up as two separate applications are not accurate.

You have two primary architecture options:

A completely decoupled client/server approach using something like create-react-app and Django REST Framework
A hybrid architecture where you set up a React build pipeline (likely using webpack) and then include the compiled files as static files in your Django templates.

These might look something like this:

Option 1 (Client/Server Architecture):

Option 2 (Hybrid Architecture):

The decision between these two will depend on your / your team's experience, as well as the complexity of your UI. The first option is good if you have a lot of JS experience, want to keep your front-end / back-end developers separate, or want to write your entire application as a React single-page-app. The second option is generally better if you are more familiar with Django and want to move quickly while also using React for some parts of your app. I find it's a particularly good fit for full-stack solo-developers.

There is a lot more information in the series "Modern JavaScript for Django Developers", including choosing your architecture, integrating your JS build into a Django project and building a single-page React app.

Full disclosure, I'm the author of that series.

How to append text to an existing file in Java?

You can use the follong code to append the content in the file:

 String fileName="/home/shriram/Desktop/Images/"+"test.txt";
  FileWriter fw=new FileWriter(fileName,true);    
  fw.write("here will be you content to insert or append in file");    
  fw.close(); 
  FileWriter fw1=new FileWriter(fileName,true);    
 fw1.write("another content will be here to be append in the same file");    
 fw1.close();

jQuery AJAX cross domain

I know 3 way to resolve your problem:

First if you have access to both domains you can allow access for all other domain using :

header("Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *");

or just a domain by adding code bellow to .htaccess file:

<FilesMatch "\.(ttf|otf|eot|woff)$"> <IfModule mod_headers.c> SetEnvIf Origin "http(s)?://(www\.)?(google.com|staging.google.com|development.google.com|otherdomain.net|dev02.otherdomain.net)$" AccessControlAllowOrigin=$0 Header add Access-Control-Allow-Origin %{AccessControlAllowOrigin}e env=AccessControlAllowOrigin </IfModule> </FilesMatch>
you can have ajax request to a php file in your server and handle request to another domain using this php file.
you can use jsonp , because it doesn't need permission. for this you can read our friend @BGerrissen answer.

Getting the client IP address: REMOTE_ADDR, HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR, what else could be useful?

If you're behind a proxy, you should use X-Forwarded-For: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X-Forwarded-For

It is an IETF draft standard with wide support:

The X-Forwarded-For field is supported by most proxy servers, including Squid, Apache mod_proxy, Pound, HAProxy, Varnish cache, IronPort Web Security Appliance, AVANU WebMux, ArrayNetworks, Radware's AppDirector and Alteon ADC, ADC-VX, and ADC-VA, F5 Big-IP, Blue Coat ProxySG, Cisco Cache Engine, McAfee Web Gateway, Phion Airlock, Finjan's Vital Security, NetApp NetCache, jetNEXUS, Crescendo Networks' Maestro, Web Adjuster and Websense Web Security Gateway.

If not, here are a couple other common headers I've seen:

X-Client-IP (Apache)
X-Real-IP (Nginx)

How to call stopservice() method of Service class from the calling activity class

That looks like it should stop the service when you uncheck the checkbox. Are there any exceptions in the log? stopService returns a boolean indicating whether or not it was able to stop the service.

If you are starting your service by Intents, then you may want to extend IntentService instead of Service. That class will stop the service on its own when it has no more work to do.

AutoService

class AutoService extends IntentService {
     private static final String TAG = "AutoService";
     private Timer timer;    
     private TimerTask task;

     public onCreate() {
          timer = new Timer();
          timer = new TimerTask() {
            public void run() 
            {
                System.out.println("done");
            }
          }
     }

     protected void onHandleIntent(Intent i) {
        Log.d(TAG, "onHandleIntent");     

        int delay = 5000; // delay for 5 sec.
        int period = 5000; // repeat every sec.


        timer.scheduleAtFixedRate(timerTask, delay, period);
     }

     public boolean stopService(Intent name) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        timer.cancel();
        task.cancel();
        return super.stopService(name);
    }

}

How to create empty constructor for data class in Kotlin Android

the modern answer for this should be using Kotlin's no-arg compiler plugin which creates a non argument construct code for classic apies more about here

simply you have to add the plugin class path in build.gradle project level

    dependencies {
    ....

    classpath "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-noarg:1.4.10"

    ....
    }

then configure your annotation to generate the no-arg constructor

apply plugin: "kotlin-noarg"

noArg {
      annotation("your.path.to.annotaion.NoArg")
      invokeInitializers = true
}

then define your annotation file NoArg.kt

 @Target(AnnotationTarget.CLASS)
 @Retention(AnnotationRetention.SOURCE)
 annotation class NoArg

finally in any data class you can simply use your own annotation

@NoArg
data class SomeClass( val datafield:Type , ...   )

I used to create my own no-arg constructor as the accepted answer , which i got by search but then this plugin released or something and I found it way cleaner .

mysql server port number

if you want to have your port as a variable, you can write php like this:

$username = user;
$password = pw;
$host = 127.0.0.1;
$database = dbname;
$port = 3308; 

$conn = mysql_connect($host.':'.$port, $username, $password);
$db=mysql_select_db($database,$conn);

How do I replace text inside a div element?

nodeValue is also a standard DOM property you can use:

function showPanel(fieldName) {
  var fieldNameElement = document.getElementById(field_name);
  if(fieldNameElement.firstChild)
    fieldNameElement.firstChild.nodeValue = "New Text";
}

Constantly print Subprocess output while process is running

This PoC constantly reads the output from a process and can be accessed when needed. Only the last result is kept, all other output is discarded, hence prevents the PIPE from growing out of memory:

import subprocess
import time
import threading
import Queue


class FlushPipe(object):
    def __init__(self):
        self.command = ['python', './print_date.py']
        self.process = None
        self.process_output = Queue.LifoQueue(0)
        self.capture_output = threading.Thread(target=self.output_reader)

    def output_reader(self):
        for line in iter(self.process.stdout.readline, b''):
            self.process_output.put_nowait(line)

    def start_process(self):
        self.process = subprocess.Popen(self.command,
                                        stdout=subprocess.PIPE)
        self.capture_output.start()

    def get_output_for_processing(self):
        line = self.process_output.get()
        print ">>>" + line


if __name__ == "__main__":
    flush_pipe = FlushPipe()
    flush_pipe.start_process()

    now = time.time()
    while time.time() - now < 10:
        flush_pipe.get_output_for_processing()
        time.sleep(2.5)

    flush_pipe.capture_output.join(timeout=0.001)
    flush_pipe.process.kill()

print_date.py

#!/usr/bin/env python
import time

if __name__ == "__main__":
    while True:
        print str(time.time())
        time.sleep(0.01)

output: You can clearly see that there is only output from ~2.5s interval nothing in between.

How can I generate Javadoc comments in Eclipse?

Shift-Alt-J is a useful keyboard shortcut in Eclipse for creating Javadoc comment templates.

Invoking the shortcut on a class, method or field declaration will create a Javadoc template:

public int doAction(int i) {
    return i;
}

Pressing Shift-Alt-J on the method declaration gives:

/**
 * @param i
 * @return
 */
public int doAction(int i) {

How to get text of an element in Selenium WebDriver, without including child element text?

Unfortunately, Selenium was only built to work with Elements, not Text nodes.

If you try to use a function like get_element_by_xpath to target the text nodes, Selenium will throw an InvalidSelectorException.

One workaround is to grab the relevant HTML with Selenium and then use an HTML parsing library like BeautifulSoup that can handle text nodes more elegantly.

import bs4
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup

inner_html = driver.find_elements_by_css_selector('#a')[0].get_attribute("innerHTML")
inner_soup = BeautifulSoup(inner_html, 'html.parser')

outer_html = driver.find_elements_by_css_selector('#a')[0].get_attribute("outerHTML")
outer_soup = BeautifulSoup(outer_html, 'html.parser')

From there, there are several ways to search for the Text content. You'll have to experiment to see what works best for your use case.

Here's a simple one-liner that may be sufficient:

inner_soup.find(text=True)

If that doesn't work, then you can loop through the element's child nodes with .contents() and check their object type.

BeautifulSoup has four types of elements, and the one that you'll be interested in is the NavigableString type, which is produced by Text nodes. By contrast, Elements will have a type of Tag.

contents = inner_soup.contents

for bs4_object in contents:

    if (type(bs4_object) == bs4.Tag):
        print("This object is an Element.")

    elif (type(bs4_object) == bs4.NavigableString):
        print("This object is a Text node.")

Note that BeautifulSoup doesn't support Xpath expressions. If you need those, then you can use some of the workarounds in this thread.

PHP Date Time Current Time Add Minutes

echo $date = date('H:i:s', strtotime('13:00:00 + 30 minutes') );

13:00:00 - any inputted time

30 minutes - any interval you wish (20 hours, 10 minutes, 1 seconds etc...)

CFLAGS, CCFLAGS, CXXFLAGS - what exactly do these variables control?

Minimal example

And just to make what Mizux said as a minimal example:

main_c.c

#include <stdio.h>

int main(void) {
    puts("hello");
}

main_cpp.cpp

#include <iostream>

int main(void) {
    std::cout << "hello" << std::endl;
}

Then, without any Makefile:

make CFLAGS='-g -O3' \
     CXXFLAGS='-ggdb3 -O0' \
     CPPFLAGS='-DX=1 -DY=2' \
     CCFLAGS='--asdf' \
     main_c \
     main_cpp

runs:

cc -g -O3 -DX=1 -DY=2   main_c.c   -o main_c
g++ -ggdb3 -O0 -DX=1 -DY=2   main_cpp.cpp   -o main_cpp

So we understand that:

make had implicit rules to make main_c and main_cpp from main_c.c and main_cpp.cpp
CFLAGS and CPPFLAGS were used as part of the implicit rule for .c compilation
CXXFLAGS and CPPFLAGS were used as part of the implicit rule for .cpp compilation
CCFLAGS is not used

Those variables are only used in make's implicit rules automatically: if compilation had used our own explicit rules, then we would have to explicitly use those variables as in:

main_c: main_c.c
    $(CC) $(CFLAGS) $(CPPFLAGS) -o $@ $<

main_cpp: main_c.c
    $(CXX) $(CXXFLAGS) $(CPPFLAGS) -o $@ $<

to achieve a similar affect to the implicit rules.

We could also name those variables however we want: but since Make already treats them magically in the implicit rules, those make good name choices.

Tested in Ubuntu 16.04, GNU Make 4.1.

app-release-unsigned.apk is not signed

The app project you downloaded may include a signed info in the file of build.gradle. If you saw codes like these:

buildTypes {
    debug {
        signingConfig signingConfigs.release
    }
    release {
        signingConfig signingConfigs.release
    }
}

you could delete them and try again.

Difference between Destroy and Delete

A lot of answers already; wanted to jump on with a bit more.

docs:

For has_many, destroy and destroy_all will always call the destroy method of the record(s) being removed so that callbacks are run. However delete and delete_all will either do the deletion according to the strategy specified by the :dependent option, or if no :dependent option is given, then it will follow the default strategy. The default strategy is to do nothing (leave the foreign keys with the parent ids set), except for has_many :through, where the default strategy is delete_all (delete the join records, without running their callbacks).

The delete verbage works differently for ActiveRecord::Association.has_many and ActiveRecord::Base. For the latter, delete will execute SQL DELETE and bypass all validations/callbacks. The former will be executed based on the :dependent option passed into the association. However, during testing, I found the following side effect where callbacks were only ran for delete and not delete_all

dependent: :destroy Example:

class Parent < ApplicationRecord
   has_many :children,
     before_remove: -> (_) { puts "before_remove callback" },
     dependent: :destroy
end

class Child < ApplicationRecord
   belongs_to :parent

   before_destroy -> { puts "before_destroy callback" }
end

> child.delete                            # Ran without callbacks
Child Destroy (99.6ms)  DELETE FROM "children" WHERE "children"."id" = $1  [["id", 21]]

> parent.children.delete(other_child)     # Ran with callbacks
before_remove callback
before_destroy callback
Child Destroy (0.4ms)  DELETE FROM "children" WHERE "children"."id" = $1  [["id", 22]]

> parent.children.delete_all              # Ran without callbacks
Child Destroy (1.0ms)  DELETE FROM "children" WHERE "children"."parent_id" = $1  [["parent_id", 1]]

Add animated Gif image in Iphone UIImageView

Swift 3:

As suggested above I'm using FLAnimatedImage with an FLAnimatedImageView. And I'm loading the gif as a data set from xcassets. This allows me to provide different gifs for iphone and ipad for appearance and app slicing purposes. This is far more performant than anything else I've tried. It's also easy to pause using .stopAnimating().

if let asset = NSDataAsset(name: "animation") {
    let gifData = asset.data
    let gif = FLAnimatedImage(animatedGIFData: gifData)
    imageView.animatedImage = gif
  }

How to disable scrolling in UITableView table when the content fits on the screen

Remap values in pandas column with a dict

A nice complete solution that keeps a map of your class labels:

labels = features['col1'].unique()
labels_dict = dict(zip(labels, range(len(labels))))
features = features.replace({"col1": labels_dict})

This way, you can at any point refer to the original class label from labels_dict.

Can a background image be larger than the div itself?

This could help. It requires the footer height to be a fixed number. Basically, you have a div inside the footer div with it's normal content, with position: absolute, and then the image with position: relative, a negative z-index so it stays "below" everything, and a negative top value of the footer's height minus the image height (in my example, 50px - 600px = -550px). Tested in Chrome 8, FireFox 3.6 and IE 9.

Permission denied (publickey) when SSH Access to Amazon EC2 instance

I solved the problem just putting sudo before

sudo ssh -i mykey.pem myec2.amazonaws.com

But the proper solution is to change the ownership first, and then connect as a normal user as Janus Troelsen said below. In my case it would be:

chown wellington:wellington key.pem

Convert Date/Time for given Timezone - java

To find duration or time interval with two different time zone

import org.joda.time.{DateTime, Period, PeriodType}

val s1 = "2019-06-13T05:50:00-07:00"
val s2 = "2019-10-09T11:30:00+09:00"    

val period = new Period(DateTime.parse(s1), DateTime.parse(s2), PeriodType dayTime())

period.getDays
period.getMinutes
period.getHours

output period = P117DT13H40M

days = 117
minutes = 40
hours = 13

Is there a way to create and run javascript in Chrome?

How to create a Javascript Bookmark in Chrome:

You can use a Javascript bookmark: https://helloacm.com/how-to-write-chrome-bookmark-scripts-step-by-step-tutorial-with-a-steemit-example/. Just create a bookmark to look like this:

Ex:

Name:

Test javascript bookmark in Chrome

URL:

javascript:alert('Hello world!');

Just precede the URL with javascript:, followed by your Javascript code. No space after the colon is required.

Here's how it looks as I'm typing it in:

Now save and then click on your newly-created Javascript bookmark, and you'll see this:

You can do multi-line scripts too. If you include any comments, however, be sure to use the C-style multi-line comments ONLY (/* comment */), and NOT the C++-style single-line comments (// comment), as they will interfere. Here's an example:

URL:

javascript:

/* This is my javascript demo */

function multiply(a, b) 
{
    return a * b;
}

var a = 1.4108;
var b = 3.7654;
var result = multiply(a, b);
alert('The result of ' + a + ' x ' + b + ' = ' + result.toFixed(4));

And here's what it looks like as you edit the bookmark, after copying and pasting the above multi-line script into the URL field for the bookmark:

And here's the output when you click on it:

PHP error: php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: (while getting information from other site.)

I would imagine that the caching DNS servers you're using aren't behaving properly (or the DNS server for the domain you're resolving isn't working properly). You can try to fix the former possibility.

Do you have at least 2 name servers registered on your network adapter? You could always swap your computer over to use a different caching DNS server to rule this out. Try Google's:

Get HTML source of WebElement in Selenium WebDriver using Python

There is not really a straightforward way of getting the HTML source code of a webelement. You will have to use JavaScript. I am not too sure about python bindings, but you can easily do like this in Java. I am sure there must be something similar to JavascriptExecutor class in Python.

 WebElement element = driver.findElement(By.id("foo"));
 String contents = (String)((JavascriptExecutor)driver).executeScript("return arguments[0].innerHTML;", element);

How to sort Counter by value? - python

Use the Counter.most_common() method, it'll sort the items for you:

>>> from collections import Counter
>>> x = Counter({'a':5, 'b':3, 'c':7})
>>> x.most_common()
[('c', 7), ('a', 5), ('b', 3)]

It'll do so in the most efficient manner possible; if you ask for a Top N instead of all values, a heapq is used instead of a straight sort:

>>> x.most_common(1)
[('c', 7)]

Outside of counters, sorting can always be adjusted based on a key function; .sort() and sorted() both take callable that lets you specify a value on which to sort the input sequence; sorted(x, key=x.get, reverse=True) would give you the same sorting as x.most_common(), but only return the keys, for example:

>>> sorted(x, key=x.get, reverse=True)
['c', 'a', 'b']

or you can sort on only the value given (key, value) pairs:

>>> sorted(x.items(), key=lambda pair: pair[1], reverse=True)
[('c', 7), ('a', 5), ('b', 3)]

See the Python sorting howto for more information.

How can I read a large text file line by line using Java?

Look at this blog:

Java Read File Line by Line - Java Tutorial

The buffer size may be specified, or the default size may be used. The default is large enough for most purposes.

// Open the file
FileInputStream fstream = new FileInputStream("textfile.txt");
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(fstream));

String strLine;

//Read File Line By Line
while ((strLine = br.readLine()) != null)   {
  // Print the content on the console
  System.out.println (strLine);
}

//Close the input stream
fstream.close();

how to upload file using curl with php

Use:

if (function_exists('curl_file_create')) { // php 5.5+
  $cFile = curl_file_create($file_name_with_full_path);
} else { // 
  $cFile = '@' . realpath($file_name_with_full_path);
}
$post = array('extra_info' => '123456','file_contents'=> $cFile);
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL,$target_url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST,1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $post);
$result=curl_exec ($ch);
curl_close ($ch);

You can also refer:

http://blog.derakkilgo.com/2009/06/07/send-a-file-via-post-with-curl-and-php/

Important hint for PHP 5.5+:

Now we should use https://wiki.php.net/rfc/curl-file-upload but if you still want to use this deprecated approach then you need to set curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SAFE_UPLOAD, false);

phpmailer: Reply using only "Reply To" address

I have found the answer to this, and it is annoyingly/frustratingly simple! Basically the reply to addresses needed to be added before the from address as such:

$mail->addReplyTo('[email protected]', 'Reply to name');
$mail->SetFrom('[email protected]', 'Mailbox name');

Looking at the phpmailer code in more detail this is the offending line:

public function SetFrom($address, $name = '',$auto=1) {
   $address = trim($address);
   $name = trim(preg_replace('/[\r\n]+/', '', $name)); //Strip breaks and trim
   if (!self::ValidateAddress($address)) {
     $this->SetError($this->Lang('invalid_address').': '. $address);
     if ($this->exceptions) {
       throw new phpmailerException($this->Lang('invalid_address').': '.$address);
     }
     echo $this->Lang('invalid_address').': '.$address;
     return false;
   }
   $this->From = $address;
   $this->FromName = $name;
   if ($auto) {
      if (empty($this->ReplyTo)) {
         $this->AddAnAddress('ReplyTo', $address, $name);
      }
      if (empty($this->Sender)) {
         $this->Sender = $address;
      }
   }
   return true;
}

Specifically this line:

if (empty($this->ReplyTo)) {
   $this->AddAnAddress('ReplyTo', $address, $name);
}

':app:lintVitalRelease' error when generating signed apk

if you want to find out the exact error go to the following path in your project: /app/build/reports/lint-results-release-fatal.html(or .xml). The easiest way is if you go to the xml file, it will show you exactly what the error is including its position of the error in your either java class or xml file. Turning off the lint checks is not a good idea, they're there for a reason. Instead, go to:

    /app/build/reports/lint-results-release-fatal.html or 
    /app/build/reports/lint-results-release-fatal.xml

and fix it.

jQuery animated number counter from zero to value

Your thisdoesn't refer to the element in the step callback, instead you want to keep a reference to it at the beginning of your function (wrapped in $thisin my example):

$('.Count').each(function () {
  var $this = $(this);
  jQuery({ Counter: 0 }).animate({ Counter: $this.text() }, {
    duration: 1000,
    easing: 'swing',
    step: function () {
      $this.text(Math.ceil(this.Counter));
    }
  });
});

Update: If you want to display decimal numbers, then instead of rounding the value with Math.ceil you can round up to 2 decimals for instance with value.toFixed(2):

step: function () {
  $this.text(this.Counter.toFixed(2));
}

matplotlib has no attribute 'pyplot'

pyplot is a sub-module of matplotlib which doesn't get imported with a simple import matplotlib.

>>> import matplotlib
>>> print matplotlib.pyplot
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'pyplot'
>>> import matplotlib.pyplot
>>>

It seems customary to do: import matplotlib.pyplot as plt at which time you can use the various functions and classes it contains:

p = plt.plot(...)

How do I fix the indentation of selected lines in Visual Studio

Selecting the text to fix, and CtrlK, CtrlF shortcut certainly works. However, I generally find that if a particular method (for instance) has it's indentation messed up, simply removing the closing brace of the method, and re-adding, in fact fixes the indentation anyway, thereby doing without the need to select the code before hand, ergo is quicker. ymmv.

<li id="home_nav"><a href="<%= Url.Action("ActionName") %>"><span>Span text</span></a></li>

jQuery : select all element with custom attribute

Use the "has attribute" selector:

$('p[MyTag]')

Or to select one where that attribute has a specific value:

$('p[MyTag="Sara"]')

There are other selectors for "attribute value starts with", "attribute value contains", etc.

How to cut an entire line in vim and paste it?

dd in command mode (after pressing escape) will cut the line, p in command mode will paste.

Update:

For a bonus, d and then a movement will cut the equivalent of that movement, so dw will cut a word, d<down-arrow> will cut this line and the line below, d50w will cut 50 words.

yy is copy line, and works like dd.

D cuts from cursor to end of line.

If you've used v (visual mode), you should try V (visual line mode) and <ctrl>v (visual block mode).

selecting an entire row based on a variable excel vba

I just tested the code at the bottom and it prints 16384 twice (I'm on Excel 2010) and the first row gets selected. Your problem seems to be somewhere else.

Have you tried to get rid of the selects:

Sheets("BOM").Rows(copyFromRow).Copy
With Sheets("Proposal")
    .Paste Destination:=.Rows(copyToRow)
    copyToRow = copyToRow + 1
    Application.CutCopyMode = False
    .Rows(copyToRow).Insert Shift:=xlDown, CopyOrigin:=xlFormatFromLeftOrAbove
End With

Test code to get convinced that the problem does not seem to be what you think it is.

Sub test()

  Dim r
  Dim i As Long

  i = 1

  r = Rows(i & ":" & i)
  Debug.Print UBound(r, 2)
  r = Rows(i)
  Debug.Print UBound(r, 2)
  Rows(i).Select

End Sub

How do I calculate percentiles with python/numpy?

Here's how to do it without numpy, using only python to calculate the percentile.

import math

def percentile(data, percentile):
    size = len(data)
    return sorted(data)[int(math.ceil((size * percentile) / 100)) - 1]

p5 = percentile(mylist, 5)
p25 = percentile(mylist, 25)
p50 = percentile(mylist, 50)
p75 = percentile(mylist, 75)
p95 = percentile(mylist, 95)

Catch multiple exceptions at once?

If you don't want to use an if statement within the catch scopes, in C# 6.0 you can use Exception Filters syntax which was already supported by the CLR in previews versions but existed only in VB.NET/MSIL:

try
{
    WebId = new Guid(queryString["web"]);
}
catch (Exception exception) when (exception is FormatException || ex is OverflowException)
{
    WebId = Guid.Empty;
}

This code will catch the Exception only when it's a InvalidDataException or ArgumentNullException.

Actually, you can put basically any condition inside that when clause:

static int a = 8;

...

catch (Exception exception) when (exception is InvalidDataException && a == 8)
{
    Console.WriteLine("Catch");
}

Note that as opposed to an if statement inside the catch's scope, Exception Filters cannot throw Exceptions, and when they do, or when the condition is not true, the next catch condition will be evaluated instead:

static int a = 7;

static int b = 0;

...

try
{
    throw new InvalidDataException();
}
catch (Exception exception) when (exception is InvalidDataException && a / b == 2)
{
    Console.WriteLine("Catch");
}
catch (Exception exception) when (exception is InvalidDataException || exception is ArgumentException)
{
    Console.WriteLine("General catch");
}

Output: General catch.

When there is more then one true Exception Filter - the first one will be accepted:

static int a = 8;

static int b = 4;

...

try
{
    throw new InvalidDataException();
}
catch (Exception exception) when (exception is InvalidDataException && a / b == 2)
{
    Console.WriteLine("Catch");
}
catch (Exception exception) when (exception is InvalidDataException || exception is ArgumentException)
{
    Console.WriteLine("General catch");
}

Output: Catch.

And as you can see in the MSIL the code is not translated to if statements, but to Filters, and Exceptions cannot be throw from within the areas marked with Filter 1 and Filter 2 but the filter throwing the Exception will fail instead, also the last comparison value pushed to the stack before the endfilter command will determine the success/failure of the filter (Catch 1 XOR Catch 2 will execute accordingly):

Also, specifically Guid has the Guid.TryParse method.

what does this mean ? image/png;base64?

That data:image/png;base64 URL is cool, I’ve never run into it before. The long encrypted link is the actual image, i.e. no image call to the server. See RFC 2397 for details.

Side note: I have had trouble getting larger base64 images to render on IE8. I believe IE8 has a 32K limit that can be problematic for larger files. See this other StackOverflow thread for details.

What is the best way to extract the first word from a string in Java?

for those who are searching for kotlin

var delimiter = " "  
var mFullname = "Mahendra Rajdhami"  
var greetingName = mFullname.substringBefore(delimiter)

Is it possible only to declare a variable without assigning any value in Python?

It is a good question and unfortunately bad answers as var = None is already assigning a value, and if your script runs multiple times it is overwritten with None every time.

It is not the same as defining without assignment. I am still trying to figure out how to bypass this issue.

Most Useful Attributes

I have been using the [DataObjectMethod] lately. It describes the method so you can use your class with the ObjectDataSource ( or other controls).

[DataObjectMethod(DataObjectMethodType.Select)] 
[DataObjectMethod(DataObjectMethodType.Delete)] 
[DataObjectMethod(DataObjectMethodType.Update)] 
[DataObjectMethod(DataObjectMethodType.Insert)]

Close a MessageBox after several seconds

RogerB over at CodeProject has one of the slickest solutions to this answer, and he did that back in '04, and it's still bangin'

Basically, you go here to his project and download the CS file. In case that link ever dies, I've got a backup gist here. Add the CS file to your project, or copy/paste the code somewhere if you'd rather do that.

Then, all you'd have to do is switch

DialogResult result = MessageBox.Show("Text","Title", MessageBoxButtons.CHOICE)

DialogResult result = MessageBoxEx.Show("Text","Title", MessageBoxButtons.CHOICE, timer_ms)

And you're good to go.

Border Height on CSS

This will add a centered border to the left of the cell that is 80% the height of the cell. You can reference the full border-image documentation here.

Pass variables by reference in JavaScript

primitive type variables like strings and numbers are always passed by value.
Arrays and Objects are passed by reference or by value based on these conditions:
- if you are setting the value of an object or array it is Pass by Value.
  
  object1 = {prop: "car"}; array1 = [1,2,3];
- if you are changing a property value of an object or array then it is Pass by Reference.
  
  object1.prop = "car"; array1[0] = 9;

Code

_x000D_

function passVar(obj1, obj2, num) {_x000D_
    obj1.prop = "laptop"; // will CHANGE original_x000D_
    obj2 = { prop: "computer" }; //will NOT affect original_x000D_
    num = num + 1; // will NOT affect original_x000D_
}_x000D_
_x000D_
var object1 = {_x000D_
    prop: "car"_x000D_
};_x000D_
var object2 = {_x000D_
    prop: "bike"_x000D_
};_x000D_
var number1 = 10;_x000D_
_x000D_
passVar(object1, object2, number1);_x000D_
console.log(object1); //output: Object {item:"laptop"}_x000D_
console.log(object2); //output: Object {item:"bike"}_x000D_
console.log(number1); //ouput: 10

how to get all markers on google-maps-v3

For an specific cluster use: getMarkers() Gets the array of markers in the clusterer.

For all the markers in the map use: getTotalMarkers() Gets the array of markers in the clusterer.

Could not resolve this reference. Could not locate the assembly

You most likely get this message when the project points to an old location of the assembly where it no longer exists. Since you were able to build it once, the assembly has already been copied into your bin\Debug / bin\Release folders so your project can still find a copy.

If you open the references node of the project in your solution explorer, there should be a yellow icon next to the reference. Remove the reference and add it again from the correct location.

If you want to know the location it was referenced from, you'd have to open the .csproj file in a text editor and look for the HintPath for that assembly - the IDE for some reason does not show this information.

Print all properties of a Python Class

Another way is to call the dir() function (see https://docs.python.org/2/library/functions.html#dir).

a = Animal()
dir(a)   
>>>
['__class__', '__delattr__', '__dict__', '__doc__', '__format__', '__getattribute__',
 '__hash__', '__init__', '__module__', '__new__', '__reduce__', '__reduce_ex__', 
 '__repr__', '__setattr__', '__sizeof__', '__str__', '__subclasshook__', 
 '__weakref__', 'age', 'color', 'kids', 'legs', 'name', 'smell']

Note, that dir() tries to reach any attribute that is possible to reach.

Then you can access the attributes e.g. by filtering with double underscores:

attributes = [attr for attr in dir(a) 
              if not attr.startswith('__')]

This is just an example of what is possible to do with dir(), please check the other answers for proper way of doing this.

How to change column datatype from character to numeric in PostgreSQL 8.4

If your VARCHAR column contains empty strings (which are not the same as NULL for PostgreSQL as you might recall) you will have to use something in the line of the following to set a default:

ALTER TABLE presales ALTER COLUMN code TYPE NUMERIC(10,0)
            USING COALESCE(NULLIF(code, '')::NUMERIC, 0);

export html table to csv

I found there is a library for this. See example here:

https://editor.datatables.net/examples/extensions/exportButtons.html

In addition to the above code, the following Javascript library files are loaded for use in this example:

In HTML, include following scripts:

jquery.dataTables.min.js   
dataTables.editor.min.js   
dataTables.select.min.js
dataTables.buttons.min.js  
jszip.min.js    
pdfmake.min.js
vfs_fonts.js  
buttons.html5.min.js    
buttons.print.min.js

Enable buttons by adding scripts like:

<script>
$(document).ready( function () {
    $('#table-arrays').DataTable({
        dom: '<"top"Blf>rt<"bottom"ip>',
        buttons: ['copy', 'excel', 'csv', 'pdf', 'print'],
        select: true,
    });
} );
</script>

For some reason, the excel export results in corrupted file, but can be repaired. Alternatively, disable excel and use csv export.

Remove accents/diacritics in a string in JavaScript

I slightly modified khel version for one reason: Every regexp parse/replace will cost O(n) operations, where n is number of characters in target text. But, regexp is not exactly what we need. So:

what's the easiest way to put space between 2 side-by-side buttons in asp.net

If you are using bootstrap, add ml-3 to your second button:

 <div class="row justify-content-center mt-5">
        <button class="btn btn-secondary" type="button">Button1</button>
        <button class="btn btn-secondary ml-3" type="button">Button2</button>

File upload progress bar with jQuery

Here is a more complete looking jquery 1.11.x $.ajax() usage:

<script type="text/javascript">
    function uploadProgressHandler(event) {
        $("#loaded_n_total").html("Uploaded " + event.loaded + " bytes of " + event.total);
        var percent = (event.loaded / event.total) * 100;
        var progress = Math.round(percent);
        $("#uploadProgressBar").html(progress + " percent na ang progress");
        $("#uploadProgressBar").css("width", progress + "%");
        $("#status").html(progress + "% uploaded... please wait");
    }

    function loadHandler(event) {
        $("#status").html(event.target.responseText);
        $("#uploadProgressBar").css("width", "0%");
    }

    function errorHandler(event) {
        $("#status").html("Upload Failed");
    }

    function abortHandler(event) {
        $("#status").html("Upload Aborted");
    }

    $("#uploadFile").click(function (event) {
        event.preventDefault();
        var file = $("#fileUpload")[0].files[0];
        var formData = new FormData();
        formData.append("file1", file);

        $.ajax({
            url: 'http://testarea.local/UploadWithProgressBar1/file_upload_parser.php',
            method: 'POST',
            type: 'POST',
            data: formData,
            contentType: false,
            processData: false,
            xhr: function () {
                var xhr = new window.XMLHttpRequest();
                xhr.upload.addEventListener("progress",
                    uploadProgressHandler,
                    false
                );
                xhr.addEventListener("load", loadHandler, false);
                xhr.addEventListener("error", errorHandler, false);
                xhr.addEventListener("abort", abortHandler, false);

                return xhr;
            }
        });
    });

Automatically capture output of last command into a variable using Bash?

I find remembering to pipe the output of my commands into a specific file to be a bit annoying, my solution is a function in my .bash_profile that catches the output in a file and returns the result when you need it.

The advantage with this one is that you don't have to rerun the whole command (when using find or other long-running commands that can be critical)

Simple enough, paste this in your .bash_profile:

Script

# catch stdin, pipe it to stdout and save to a file
catch () { cat - | tee /tmp/catch.out}
# print whatever output was saved to a file
res () { cat /tmp/catch.out }

Usage

$ find . -name 'filename' | catch
/path/to/filename

$ res
/path/to/filename

At this point, I tend to just add | catch to the end of all of my commands, because there's no cost to doing it and it saves me having to rerun commands that take a long time to finish.

Also, if you want to open the file output in a text editor you can do this:

# vim or whatever your favorite text editor is
$ vim <(res)

Convert byte to string in Java

This is my version:

public String convertBytestoString(InputStream inputStream)
{
    int bytes;
    byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];

    bytes = inputStream.read(buffer);
    String stringData = new String(buffer,0,bytes);

    return stringData;

}
