box-shadow on bootstrap 3 container

You should give the container an id and use that in your custom css file (which should be linked after the bootstrap css):

#container { box-shadow: values }

Babel 6 regeneratorRuntime is not defined

I fixed this error by installing babel-polyfill

npm install babel-polyfill --save

then I imported it in my app entry point

import http from 'http';
import config from 'dotenv';
import 'babel-polyfill';
import { register } from 'babel-core';
import app from '../app';

for testing I included --require babel-polyfill in my test script

"test": "export NODE_ENV=test|| SET NODE_ENV=test&& mocha --compilers 
  js:babel-core/register --require babel-polyfill server/test/**.js --exit"

Math operations from string

A simple way but dangerous way to do this would be to use eval(). eval() executes the string passed to it as code. The dangerous thing about this is that if this string is gained from user input, they could maliciously execute code that could break the computer. I would get the input, check it with a regex, and then execute it if you determine if it's OK. If it's only going to be in the format "number operation number", then you could use a simple regex:

import re
s = raw_input('What is your math problem? ')
if re.findall('\d+? *?\+ *?\d+?', s):
  print eval(s)
else:
  print "Try entering a math problem"

Otherwise, you would have to come up with something a bit stricter than this. You could also do it conversely, using a regex to find if certain things are not in it, such as numbers and operations. Also you could check to see if the input contains certain commands.

In Angular, What is 'pathmatch: full' and what effect does it have?

While technically correct, the other answers would benefit from an explanation of Angular's URL-to-route matching. I don't think you can fully (pardon the pun) understand what pathMatch: full does if you don't know how the router works in the first place.


Let's first define a few basic things. We'll use this URL as an example: /users/james/articles?from=134#section.

  1. It may be obvious but let's first point out that query parameters (?from=134) and fragments (#section) do not play any role in path matching. Only the base url (/users/james/articles) matters.

  2. Angular splits URLs into segments. The segments of /users/james/articles are, of course, users, james and articles.

  3. The router configuration is a tree structure with a single root node. Each Route object is a node, which may have children nodes, which may in turn have other children or be leaf nodes.

The goal of the router is to find a router configuration branch, starting at the root node, which would match exactly all (!!!) segments of the URL. This is crucial! If Angular does not find a route configuration branch which could match the whole URL - no more and no less - it will not render anything.

E.g. if your target URL is /a/b/c but the router is only able to match either /a/b or /a/b/c/d, then there is no match and the application will not render anything.

Finally, routes with redirectTo behave slightly differently than regular routes, and it seems to me that they would be the only place where anyone would really ever want to use pathMatch: full. But we will get to this later.

Default (prefix) path matching

The reasoning behind the name prefix is that such a route configuration will check if the configured path is a prefix of the remaining URL segments. However, the router is only able to match full segments, which makes this naming slightly confusing.

Anyway, let's say this is our root-level router configuration:

const routes: Routes = [
  {
    path: 'products',
    children: [
      {
        path: ':productID',
        component: ProductComponent,
      },
    ],
  },
  {
    path: ':other',
    children: [
      {
        path: 'tricks',
        component: TricksComponent,
      },
    ],
  },
  {
    path: 'user',
    component: UsersonComponent,
  },
  {
    path: 'users',
    children: [
      {
        path: 'permissions',
        component: UsersPermissionsComponent,
      },
      {
        path: ':userID',
        children: [
          {
            path: 'comments',
            component: UserCommentsComponent,
          },
          {
            path: 'articles',
            component: UserArticlesComponent,
          },
        ],
      },
    ],
  },
];

Note that every single Route object here uses the default matching strategy, which is prefix. This strategy means that the router iterates over the whole configuration tree and tries to match it against the target URL segment by segment until the URL is fully matched. Here's how it would be done for this example:

  1. Iterate over the root array looking for a an exact match for the first URL segment - users.
  2. 'products' !== 'users', so skip that branch. Note that we are using an equality check rather than a .startsWith() or .includes() - only full segment matches count!
  3. :other matches any value, so it's a match. However, the target URL is not yet fully matched (we still need to match james and articles), thus the router looks for children.
  • The only child of :other is tricks, which is !== 'james', hence not a match.
  1. Angular then retraces back to the root array and continues from there.
  2. 'user' !== 'users, skip branch.
  3. 'users' === 'users - the segment matches. However, this is not a full match yet, thus we need to look for children (same as in step 3).
  • 'permissions' !== 'james', skip it.
  • :userID matches anything, thus we have a match for the james segment. However this is still not a full match, thus we need to look for a child which would match articles.
    1. We can see that :userID has a child route articles, which gives us a full match! Thus the application renders UserArticlesComponent.

Full URL (full) matching

Example 1

Imagine now that the users route configuration object looked like this:

{
  path: 'users',
  component: UsersComponent,
  pathMatch: 'full',
  children: [
    {
      path: 'permissions',
      component: UsersPermissionsComponent,
    },
    {
      path: ':userID',
      component: UserComponent,
      children: [
        {
          path: 'comments',
          component: UserCommentsComponent,
        },
        {
          path: 'articles',
          component: UserArticlesComponent,
        },
      ],
    },
  ],
}

Note the usage of pathMatch: full. If this were the case, steps 1-5 would be the same, however step 6 would be different:

  1. 'users' !== 'users/james/articles - the segment does not match because the path configuration users with pathMatch: full does not match the full URL, which is users/james/articles.
  2. Since there is no match, we are skipping this branch.
  3. At this point we reached the end of the router configuration without having found a match. The application renders nothing.

Example 2

What if we had this instead:

{
  path: 'users/:userID',
  component: UsersComponent,
  pathMatch: 'full',
  children: [
    {
      path: 'comments',
      component: UserCommentsComponent,
    },
    {
      path: 'articles',
      component: UserArticlesComponent,
    },
  ],
}

users/:userID with pathMatch: full matches only users/james thus it's a no-match once again, and the application renders nothing.

Example 3

Let's consider this:

{
  path: 'users',
  children: [
    {
      path: 'permissions',
      component: UsersPermissionsComponent,
    },
    {
      path: ':userID',
      component: UserComponent,
      pathMatch: 'full',
      children: [
        {
          path: 'comments',
          component: UserCommentsComponent,
        },
        {
          path: 'articles',
          component: UserArticlesComponent,
        },
      ],
    },
  ],
}

In this case:

  1. 'users' === 'users - the segment matches, but james/articles still remains unmatched. Let's look for children.
  • 'permissions' !== 'james' - skip.
  • :userID' can only match a single segment, which would be james. However, it's a pathMatch: full route, and it must match james/articles (the whole remaining URL). It's not able to do that and thus it's not a match (so we skip this branch)!
  1. Again, we failed to find any match for the URL and the application renders nothing.

As you may have noticed, a pathMatch: full configuration is basically saying this:

Ignore my children and only match me. If I am not able to match all of the remaining URL segments myself, then move on.

Redirects

Any Route which has defined a redirectTo will be matched against the target URL according to the same principles. The only difference here is that the redirect is applied as soon as a segment matches. This means that if a redirecting route is using the default prefix strategy, a partial match is enough to cause a redirect. Here's a good example:

const routes: Routes = [
  {
    path: 'not-found',
    component: NotFoundComponent,
  },
  {
    path: 'users',
    redirectTo: 'not-found',
  },
  {
    path: 'users/:userID',
    children: [
      {
        path: 'comments',
        component: UserCommentsComponent,
      },
      {
        path: 'articles',
        component: UserArticlesComponent,
      },
    ],
  },
];

For our initial URL (/users/james/articles), here's what would happen:

  1. 'not-found' !== 'users' - skip it.
  2. 'users' === 'users' - we have a match.
  3. This match has a redirectTo: 'not-found', which is applied immediately.
  4. The target URL changes to not-found.
  5. The router begins matching again and finds a match for not-found right away. The application renders NotFoundComponent.

Now consider what would happen if the users route also had pathMatch: full:

const routes: Routes = [
  {
    path: 'not-found',
    component: NotFoundComponent,
  },
  {
    path: 'users',
    pathMatch: 'full',
    redirectTo: 'not-found',
  },
  {
    path: 'users/:userID',
    children: [
      {
        path: 'comments',
        component: UserCommentsComponent,
      },
      {
        path: 'articles',
        component: UserArticlesComponent,
      },
    ],
  },
];
  1. 'not-found' !== 'users' - skip it.
  2. users would match the first segment of the URL, but the route configuration requires a full match, thus skip it.
  3. 'users/:userID' matches users/james. articles is still not matched but this route has children.
  • We find a match for articles in the children. The whole URL is now matched and the application renders UserArticlesComponent.

Empty path (path: '')

The empty path is a bit of a special case because it can match any segment without "consuming" it (so it's children would have to match that segment again). Consider this example:

const routes: Routes = [
  {
    path: '',
    children: [
      {
        path: 'users',
        component: BadUsersComponent,
      }
    ]
  },
  {
    path: 'users',
    component: GoodUsersComponent,
  },
];

Let's say we are trying to access /users:

  • path: '' will always match, thus the route matches. However, the whole URL has not been matched - we still need to match users!
  • We can see that there is a child users, which matches the remaining (and only!) segment and we have a full match. The application renders BadUsersComponent.

Now back to the original question

The OP used this router configuration:

const routes: Routes = [
  {
    path: 'welcome',
    component: WelcomeComponent,
  },
  {
    path: '',
    redirectTo: 'welcome',
    pathMatch: 'full',
  },
  {
    path: '**',
    redirectTo: 'welcome',
    pathMatch: 'full',
  },
];

If we are navigating to the root URL (/), here's how the router would resolve that:

  1. welcome does not match an empty segment, so skip it.
  2. path: '' matches the empty segment. It has a pathMatch: 'full', which is also satisfied as we have matched the whole URL (it had a single empty segment).
  3. A redirect to welcome happens and the application renders WelcomeComponent.

What if there was no pathMatch: 'full'?

Actually, one would expect the whole thing to behave exactly the same. However, Angular explicitly prevents such a configuration ({ path: '', redirectTo: 'welcome' }) because if you put this Route above welcome, it would theoretically create an endless loop of redirects. So Angular just throws an error, which is why the application would not work at all! (https://angular.io/api/router/Route#pathMatch)

Actually, this does not make too much sense to me because Angular also has implemented a protection against such endless redirects - it only runs a single redirect per routing level! This would stop all further redirects (as you'll see in the example below).

What about path: '**'?

path: '**' will match absolutely anything (af/frewf/321532152/fsa is a match) with or without a pathMatch: 'full'.

Also, since it matches everything, the root path is also included, which makes { path: '', redirectTo: 'welcome' } completely redundant in this setup.

Funnily enough, it is perfectly fine to have this configuration:

const routes: Routes = [
  {
    path: '**',
    redirectTo: 'welcome'
  },
  {
    path: 'welcome',
    component: WelcomeComponent,
  },
];

If we navigate to /welcome, path: '**' will be a match and a redirect to welcome will happen. Theoretically this should kick off an endless loop of redirects but Angular stops that immediately (because of the protection I mentioned earlier) and the whole thing works just fine.

Repeat a task with a time delay?

I think the new hotness is to use a ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor. Like so:

private final ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor executor_ = 
        new ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor(1);
this.executor_.scheduleWithFixedDelay(new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
    update();
    }
}, 0L, kPeriod, kTimeUnit);

Better way to call javascript function in a tag

Neither is good.

Behaviour should be configured independent of the actual markup. For instance, in jQuery you might do something like

$('#the-element').click(function () { /* perform action here */ });

in a separate <script> block.

The advantage of this is that it

  1. Separates markup and behaviour in the same way that CSS separates markup and style
  2. Centralises configuration (this is somewhat a corollary of 1).
  3. Is trivially extensible to include more than one argument using jQuery’s powerful selector syntax

Furthermore, it degrades gracefully (but so would using the onclick event) since you can provide the link tags with a href in case the user doesn’t have JavaScript enabled.

Of course, these arguments still count if you’re not using jQuery or another JavaScript library (but why do that?).

Sending a JSON HTTP POST request from Android

try some thing like blow:

SString otherParametersUrServiceNeed =  "Company=acompany&Lng=test&MainPeriod=test&UserID=123&CourseDate=8:10:10";
String request = "http://android.schoolportal.gr/Service.svc/SaveValues";

URL url = new URL(request); 
HttpURLConnection connection = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();   
connection.setDoOutput(true);
connection.setDoInput(true);
connection.setInstanceFollowRedirects(false); 
connection.setRequestMethod("POST"); 
connection.setRequestProperty("Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"); 
connection.setRequestProperty("charset", "utf-8");
connection.setRequestProperty("Content-Length", "" + Integer.toString(otherParametersUrServiceNeed.getBytes().length));
connection.setUseCaches (false);

DataOutputStream wr = new DataOutputStream(connection.getOutputStream ());
wr.writeBytes(otherParametersUrServiceNeed);

   JSONObject jsonParam = new JSONObject();
jsonParam.put("ID", "25");
jsonParam.put("description", "Real");
jsonParam.put("enable", "true");

wr.writeBytes(jsonParam.toString());

wr.flush();
wr.close();

SQL QUERY replace NULL value in a row with a value from the previous known value

This is the solution for MS Access.

The example table is called tab, with fields id and val.

SELECT (SELECT last(val)
          FROM tab AS temp
          WHERE tab.id >= temp.id AND temp.val IS NOT NULL) AS val2, *
  FROM tab;

Azure SQL Database "DTU percentage" metric

From this document, this DTU percent is determined by this query:

SELECT end_time,   
  (SELECT Max(v)    
   FROM (VALUES (avg_cpu_percent), (avg_data_io_percent), 
(avg_log_write_percent)) AS    
   value(v)) AS [avg_DTU_percent]   
FROM sys.dm_db_resource_stats;  

looks like the max of avg_cpu_percent, avg_data_io_percent and avg_log_write_percent

Is there a Google Keep API?

No there's not and developers still don't know why google doesn't pay attention to this request!

As you can see in this link it's one of the most popular issues with many stars in google code but still no response from google! You can also add stars to this issue, maybe google hears that!

What are the specific differences between .msi and setup.exe file?

MSI is basically an installer from Microsoft that is built into windows. It associates components with features and contains installation control information. It is not necessary that this file contains actual user required files i.e the application programs which user expects. MSI can contain another setup.exe inside it which the MSI wraps, which actually contains the user required files.

Hope this clears you doubt.

The difference between sys.stdout.write and print?

My question is whether or not there are situations in which sys.stdout.write() is preferable to print

If you're writing a command line application that can write to both files and stdout then it is handy. You can do things like:

def myfunc(outfile=None):
    if outfile is None:
        out = sys.stdout
    else:
        out = open(outfile, 'w')
    try:
        # do some stuff
        out.write(mytext + '\n')
        # ...
    finally:
        if outfile is not None:
            out.close()

It does mean you can't use the with open(outfile, 'w') as out: pattern, but sometimes it is worth it.

Update multiple rows with different values in a single SQL query

I could not make @Clockwork-Muse work actually. But I could make this variation work:

WITH Tmp AS (SELECT * FROM (VALUES (id1, newsPosX1, newPosY1), 
                                   (id2, newsPosX2, newPosY2),
                                   ......................... ,
                                   (idN, newsPosXN, newPosYN)) d(id, px, py))

UPDATE t

SET posX = (SELECT px FROM Tmp WHERE t.id = Tmp.id),
    posY = (SELECT py FROM Tmp WHERE t.id = Tmp.id)

FROM TableToUpdate t

I hope this works for you too!

git repo says it's up-to-date after pull but files are not updated

std::string to char*

Alternatively , you can use vectors to get a writable char* as demonstrated below;

//this handles memory manipulations and is more convenient
string str;
vector <char> writable (str.begin (), str.end) ;
writable .push_back ('\0'); 
char* cstring = &writable[0] //or &*writable.begin () 

//Goodluck  

In c, in bool, true == 1 and false == 0?

You neglected to say which version of C you are concerned about. Let's assume it's this one:

http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg14/www/docs/n1570.pdf

As you can see by reading the specification, the standard definitions of true and false are 1 and 0, yes.

If your question is about a different version of C, or about non-standard definitions for true and false, then ask a more specific question.

jQuery: checking if the value of a field is null (empty)

Assuming

var val = $('#person_data[document_type]').value();

you have these cases:

val === 'NULL';  // actual value is a string with content "NULL"
val === '';      // actual value is an empty string
val === null;    // actual value is null (absence of any value)

So, use what you need.

make: *** No rule to make target `all'. Stop

Your makefile should ideally be named makefile, not make. Note that you can call your makefile anything you like, but as you found, you then need the -f option with make to specify the name of the makefile. Using the default name of makefile just makes life easier.

Execute specified function every X seconds

You can do this easily by adding a Timer to your form (from the designer) and setting it's Tick-function to run your isonline-function.

Make xargs execute the command once for each line of input

You can limit the number of lines, or arguments (if there are spaces between each argument) using the --max-lines or --max-args flags, respectively.

  -L max-lines
         Use at most max-lines nonblank input lines per command line.  Trailing blanks cause an input line to be logically continued on the next  input
         line.  Implies -x.

  --max-lines[=max-lines], -l[max-lines]
         Synonym  for  the -L option.  Unlike -L, the max-lines argument is optional.  If max-args is not specified, it defaults to one.  The -l option
         is deprecated since the POSIX standard specifies -L instead.

  --max-args=max-args, -n max-args
         Use at most max-args arguments per command line.  Fewer than max-args arguments will be used if the size (see  the  -s  option)  is  exceeded,
         unless the -x option is given, in which case xargs will exit.

heroku - how to see all the logs

Heroku treats logs as time-ordered streams of events. Accessing *.log files on the filesystem is not recommended in such an environment for a variety of reasons.

First, if your app has more than one dyno then each log file only represents a partial view into the events of your app. You would have to manually aggregate all the files to get the full view.

Second, the filesystem on Heroku is ephemeral meaning whenever your dyno is restarted or moved (which happens about once a day)the log files are lost. So you only get at most a day's view into that single dyno's logs.

Finally, on the Cedar stack running heroku console or even heroku run bash does not connect you to a currently running dyno. It spawns a new one specifically for the bash command. This is called a one-off process. As such, you won't find the log files for your other dynos that are running the actual http processes on the one spawned for heroku run.

Logging, and visibility in general, is a first-class citizen on Heroku and there are several tools that address these issues. First, to see a real-time stream of application events across all dynos and all layers of the application/stack use the heroku logs -t command to tail output to your terminal.

$ heroku logs -t
2010-09-16T15:13:46-07:00 app[web.1]: Processing PostController#list (for 208.39.138.12 at 2010-09-16 15:13:46) [GET]

2010-09-16T15:13:47-07:00 app[worker.1]: 2 jobs processed at 16.6761 j/s, 0 failed ...

This works great for observing the behavior of your application right now. If you want to store the logs for longer periods of time you can use one of the many logging add-ons that provide log retention, alerting and triggers.

Lastly, if you want to store the log files yourself you can setup your own syslog drain to receive the stream of events from Heroku and post-process/analyze yourself.

Summary: Don't use heroku console or heroku run bash to view static log files. Pipe into Heroku's stream of log events for your app using heroku logs or a logging add-on.

How can I print message in Makefile?

It's not clear what you want, or whether you want this trick to work with different targets, or whether you've defined these targets elsewhere, or what version of Make you're using, but what the heck, I'll go out on a limb:

ifeq (yes, ${TEST})
CXXFLAGS := ${CXXFLAGS} -DDESKTOP_TEST
test:
$(info ************  TEST VERSION ************)
else
release:
$(info ************ RELEASE VERSIOIN **********)

Comparison of C# modifiers

What are the uses of the exec command in shell scripts?

Just to augment the accepted answer with a brief newbie-friendly short answer, you probably don't need exec.

If you're still here, the following discussion should hopefully reveal why. When you run, say,

sh -c 'command'

you run a sh instance, then start command as a child of that sh instance. When command finishes, the sh instance also finishes.

sh -c 'exec command'

runs a sh instance, then replaces that sh instance with the command binary, and runs that instead.

Of course, both of these are useless in this limited context; you simply want

command

There are some fringe situations where you want the shell to read its configuration file or somehow otherwise set up the environment as a preparation for running command. This is pretty much the sole situation where exec command is useful.

#!/bin/sh
ENVIRONMENT=$(some complex task)
exec command

This does some stuff to prepare the environment so that it contains what is needed. Once that's done, the sh instance is no longer necessary, and so it's a (minor) optimization to simply replace the sh instance with the command process, rather than have sh run it as a child process and wait for it, then exit as soon as it finishes.

Similarly, if you want to free up as much resources as possible for a heavyish command at the end of a shell script, you might want to exec that command as an optimization.

If something forces you to run sh but you really wanted to run something else, exec something else is of course a workaround to replace the undesired sh instance (like for example if you really wanted to run your own spiffy gosh instead of sh but yours isn't listed in /etc/shells so you can't specify it as your login shell).

The second use of exec to manipulate file descriptors is a separate topic. The accepted answer covers that nicely; to keep this self-contained, I'll just defer to the manual for anything where exec is followed by a redirect instead of a command name.

What is the best free SQL GUI for Linux for various DBMS systems

For Oracle, I highly recommend the free Oracle SQL Developer

http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/sql_developer/index.html

The doucmentation states it also works with non-oracle databases - i've never tried that feature myself, but I do know that it works really well with Oracle

data.map is not a function

data is not an array, it is an object with an array of products so iterate over data.products

var allProducts = data.products.map(function (item) {
    return new getData(item);
});

Open Jquery modal dialog on click event

Try adding this line before your dialog line.

$( "#dialog" ).dialog( "open" );

This method worked for me. It seems that the "close" command messes up the dialog opening again with only the .dialog() .

Using your code as an example, it would go in like this (note that you may need to add more to your code for it to make sense):

    <script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
    //$('#dialog').dialog();
    $('#dialog_link').click(function() {
$( "#dialog" ).dialog( "open" );        
$('#dialog').dialog();
        return false;
    });
});
</script>    
</head><body>
   <div id="dialog" title="Dialog Title" style="display:none"> Some text</div>  
   <p id="dialog_link">Open Dialog</p>  
</body></html>

How to iterate over a TreeMap?

Using Google Collections, assuming K is your key type:

Maps.filterKeys(treeMap, new Predicate<K>() {
  @Override
  public boolean apply(K key) {
    return false; //return true here if you need the entry to be in your new map
  }});

You can use filterEntries instead if you need the value as well.

How to convert a private key to an RSA private key?

This may be of some help (do not literally write out the backslashes '\' in the commands, they are meant to indicate that "everything has to be on one line"):

Which Command to Apply When

It seems that all the commands (in grey) take any type of key file (in green) as "in" argument. Which is nice.

Here are the commands again for easier copy-pasting:

openssl rsa                                                -in $FF -out $TF
openssl rsa -aes256                                        -in $FF -out $TF
openssl pkcs8 -topk8 -nocrypt                              -in $FF -out $TF
openssl pkcs8 -topk8 -v2 aes-256-cbc -v2prf hmacWithSHA256 -in $FF -out $TF

and

openssl rsa -check -in $FF
openssl rsa -text  -in $FF

FutureWarning: elementwise comparison failed; returning scalar, but in the future will perform elementwise comparison

I had this code which was causing the error:

for t in dfObj['time']:
  if type(t) == str:
    the_date = dateutil.parser.parse(t)
    loc_dt_int = int(the_date.timestamp())
    dfObj.loc[t == dfObj.time, 'time'] = loc_dt_int

I changed it to this:

for t in dfObj['time']:
  try:
    the_date = dateutil.parser.parse(t)
    loc_dt_int = int(the_date.timestamp())
    dfObj.loc[t == dfObj.time, 'time'] = loc_dt_int
  except Exception as e:
    print(e)
    continue

to avoid the comparison, which is throwing the warning - as stated above. I only had to avoid the exception because of dfObj.loc in the for loop, maybe there is a way to tell it not to check the rows it has already changed.

Evaluate list.contains string in JSTL

Another way of doing this is using a Map (HashMap) with Key, Value pairs representing your object.

Map<Long, Object> map = new HashMap<Long, Object>();
map.put(new Long(1), "one");
map.put(new Long(2), "two");

In JSTL

<c:if test="${not empty map[1]}">

This should return true if the pair exist in the map

End If

How to open a new window on form submit

The code you have given, needs to be corrected. In form tag you have to enclosed the onClick attribute value in double quote:

"window.open('google.htm','','scrollbars=no,menubar=no,height=600,width=800,resizable=yes,toolbar=no,status=no');"

You also need to take care that first parameter of window.open should also be enclosed using quotes.

What does flex: 1 mean?

Here is the explanation:

https://www.w3.org/TR/css-flexbox-1/#flex-common

flex: <positive-number>
Equivalent to flex: <positive-number> 1 0. Makes the flex item flexible and sets the flex basis to zero, resulting in an item that receives the specified proportion of the free space in the flex container. If all items in the flex container use this pattern, their sizes will be proportional to the specified flex factor.

Therefore flex:1 is equivalent to flex: 1 1 0

Change visibility of ASP.NET label with JavaScript

Try this.

<asp:Button id="myButton" runat="server" style="display:none" Text="Click Me" />

<script type="text/javascript">
    function ShowButton() {
        var buttonID = '<%= myButton.ClientID %>';
        var button = document.getElementById(buttonID);
        if(button) { button.style.display = 'inherit'; }
    }
</script>

Don't use server-side code to do this because that would require a postback. Instead of using Visibility="false", you can just set a CSS property that hides the button. Then, in javascript, switch that property back whenever you want to show the button again.

The ClientID is used because it can be different from the server ID if the button is inside a Naming Container control. These include Panels of various sorts.

MySQL limit from descending order

No, you shouldn't do this. Without an ORDER BY clause you shouldn't rely on the order of the results being the same from query to query. It might work nicely during testing but the order is indeterminate and could break later. Use an order by.

SELECT * FROM table1 ORDER BY id LIMIT 5

By the way, another way of getting the last 3 rows is to reverse the order and select the first three rows:

SELECT * FROM table1 ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 3

This will always work even if the number of rows in the result set isn't always 8.

HTML embedded PDF iframe

It's downloaded probably because there is not Adobe Reader plug-in installed. In this case, IE (it doesn't matter which version) doesn't know how to render it, and it'll simply download the file (Chrome, for example, has its own embedded PDF renderer).

That said. <iframe> is not best way to display a PDF (do not forget compatibility with mobile browsers, for example Safari). Some browsers will always open that file inside an external application (or in another browser window). Best and most compatible way I found is a little bit tricky but works on all browsers I tried (even pretty outdated):

Keep your <iframe> but do not display a PDF inside it, it'll be filled with an HTML page that consists of an <object> tag. Create an HTML wrapping page for your PDF, it should look like this:

<html>
<body>
    <object data="your_url_to_pdf" type="application/pdf">
        <embed src="your_url_to_pdf" type="application/pdf" />
    </object>
</body>
</html>

Of course, you still need the appropriate plug-in installed in the browser. Also, look at this post if you need to support Safari on mobile devices.

1st. Why nesting <embed> inside <object>? You'll find the answer here on SO. Instead of a nested <embed> tag, you may (should!) provide a custom message for your users (or a built-in viewer, see next paragraph). Nowadays, <object> can be used without worries, and <embed> is useless.

2nd. Why an HTML page? So you can provide a fallback if PDF viewer isn't supported. Internal viewer, plain HTML error messages/options, and so on...

It's tricky to check PDF support so that you may provide an alternate viewer for your customers, take a look at PDF.JS project; it's pretty good but rendering quality - for desktop browsers - isn't as good as a native PDF renderer (I didn't see any difference in mobile browsers because of screen size, I suppose).

How do you sort a dictionary by value?

Sorting a SortedDictionary list to bind into a ListView control using VB.NET:

Dim MyDictionary As SortedDictionary(Of String, MyDictionaryEntry)

MyDictionaryListView.ItemsSource = MyDictionary.Values.OrderByDescending(Function(entry) entry.MyValue)

Public Class MyDictionaryEntry ' Need Property for GridViewColumn DisplayMemberBinding
    Public Property MyString As String
    Public Property MyValue As Integer
End Class

XAML:

<ListView Name="MyDictionaryListView">
    <ListView.View>
        <GridView>
            <GridViewColumn DisplayMemberBinding="{Binding Path=MyString}" Header="MyStringColumnName"></GridViewColumn>
            <GridViewColumn DisplayMemberBinding="{Binding Path=MyValue}" Header="MyValueColumnName"></GridViewColumn>
         </GridView>
    </ListView.View>
</ListView>

How can I get the count of milliseconds since midnight for the current?

In Java 8 you can simply do

ZonedDateTime.now().toInstant().toEpochMilli()

returns : the number of milliseconds since the epoch of 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z

JavaScript dictionary with names

Another approach would be to have an array of objects, with each individual object holding the properties of a column. This slightly changes the structure of "myMappings", but makes it easy to work with:

var myMappings = [
    { title: "Name", width: "10%" },
    { title: "Phone", width: "10%" },
    { title: "Address", width: "50%" },
    { title: "Zip", width: "10%" },
    { title: "Comments", width: "20%" }
];

Then you could easily iterate through all your "columns" with a for loop:

for (var i = 0; i < myMappings.length; i += 1) {
    // myMappings[i].title ...
    // myMappings[i].width ...
}

When to throw an exception?

I agree with japollock way up there--throw an acception when you are uncertain about the outcome of an operation. Calls to APIs, accessing filesystems, database calls, etc. Anytime you are moving past the "boundaries" of your programming languages.

I'd like to add, feel free to throw a standard exception. Unless you are going to do something "different" (ignore, email, log, show that twitter whale picture thingy, etc), then don't bother with custom exceptions.

Change language of Visual Studio 2017 RC

In RC2 (and most likely in the final release) you can switch language from inside Visual Studio and you can modify your setup to include other language packs.

You can now add and remove multiple user interface languages at any time using the Visual Studio installer on the Language Pack tab. You can select the current user interface language among those installed using Tools > Options > International Settings.

VS2010 How to include files in project, to copy them to build output directory automatically during build or publish

Just so my fellow neuronically impaired comrades might chance upon it here, I had assumed that, for web projects, if the linked file was an external .config file that the "output directory" would be the same directory that web.config lives in, i.e. your web project's root. In retrospect, it is entirely unsurprising that it copies the linked file into the root/bin folder.

So, if it's an appSettings include file, your web.config's open tag would be

<appSettings file=".\bin\includedAppSettingsFile.config">

Duh.

Show a child form in the centre of Parent form in C#

On the SubLogin Form I would expose a SetLocation method so that you can set it from your parent form:

public class SubLogin : Form
{
   public void SetLocation(Point p)
   {
      this.Location = p;
   }
} 

Then, from your main form:

loginForm = new SubLogin();   
Point p = //do math to get point
loginForm.SetLocation(p);
loginForm.Show();

How to get the Facebook user id using the access token

You just have to hit another Graph API:

It will give your e-mail Id and user Id (for Facebook) also.

How to negate specific word in regex?

I had a list of file names, and I wanted to exclude certain ones, with this sort of behavior (Ruby):

files = [
  'mydir/states.rb',      # don't match these
  'countries.rb',
  'mydir/states_bkp.rb',  # match these
  'mydir/city_states.rb' 
]
excluded = ['states', 'countries']

# set my_rgx here

result = WankyAPI.filter(files, my_rgx)  # I didn't write WankyAPI...
assert result == ['mydir/city_states.rb', 'mydir/states_bkp.rb']

Here's my solution:

excluded_rgx = excluded.map{|e| e+'\.'}.join('|')
my_rgx = /(^|\/)((?!#{excluded_rgx})[^\.\/]*)\.rb$/

My assumptions for this application:

  • The string to be excluded is at the beginning of the input, or immediately following a slash.
  • The permitted strings end with .rb.
  • Permitted filenames don't have a . character before the .rb.

How to update (append to) an href in jquery?

how to create dynamic two dimensional array in java?

Since the number of columns is a constant, you can just have an List of int[].

    import java.util.*;
    //...

    List<int[]> rowList = new ArrayList<int[]>();

    rowList.add(new int[] { 1, 2, 3 });
    rowList.add(new int[] { 4, 5, 6 });
    rowList.add(new int[] { 7, 8 });

    for (int[] row : rowList) {
        System.out.println("Row = " + Arrays.toString(row));
    } // prints:
      // Row = [1, 2, 3]
      // Row = [4, 5, 6]
      // Row = [7, 8]

    System.out.println(rowList.get(1)[1]); // prints "5"

Since it's backed by a List, the number of rows can grow and shrink dynamically. Each row is backed by an int[], which is static, but you said that the number of columns is fixed, so this is not a problem.

Change bootstrap navbar background color and font color

I have successfully styled my Bootstrap navbar using the following CSS. Also you didn't define any font in your CSS so that's why the font isn't changing. The site for which this CSS is used can be found here.

Assign JavaScript variable to Java Variable in JSP

The answer is You can't. Java (in your case JSP) is a server-side scripting language, which means that it is compiled and executed before all javascript code. You can assign javascript variables to JSP variables but not the other way around. If possible, you can have the variable appear in a QueryString or pass it via a form (through a hidden field), post it and extract the variable through JSP that way. But this would require resubmitting the page.

Hope this helps.

Delete terminal history in Linux

If you use bash, then the terminal history is saved in a file called .bash_history. Delete it, and history will be gone.

However, for MySQL the better approach is not to enter the password in the command line. If you just specify the -p option, without a value, then you will be prompted for the password and it won't be logged.

Another option, if you don't want to enter your password every time, is to store it in a my.cnf file. Create a file named ~/.my.cnf with something like:

[client]
user = <username>
password = <password>

Make sure to change the file permissions so that only you can read the file.

Of course, this way your password is still saved in a plaintext file in your home directory, just like it was previously saved in .bash_history.

How do I set up Visual Studio Code to compile C++ code?

Out of frustration at the lack of clear documentation, I've created a Mac project on github that should just work (both building and debugging):

I plan to do the same for Windows and linux (unless Microsoft write decent documentation first...).

How to compile C programming in Windows 7?

Compiling Programs on Windows 7:

You have to download configured Borland Compiler from http://www.4shared.com/get/Gs41_5yA/borland_for_graphics.html or http://dwij.co.in/graphics-c-programming-for-windows-7-borland-compiler/.

Put your Borland’s ‘bin’ folder into Environmental Variables.
Now go inside folder ‘bin’ & edit file bcc32.cfg as per your folder structure. This file contains settings of headers & libraries.

-I"D:\Borland\include;"
-L"D:\Borland\lib;D:\Borland\Lib\PSDK"

Now create any C/C++ Program say myprogram.cpp
Use following command to compile this bunch of code:

F:\>bcc32 myprogram.cpp

What's an Aggregate Root?

Imagine you have a Computer entity, this entity also cannot live without its Software entity and Hardware entity. These form the Computer aggregate, the mini-ecosystem for the Computer portion of the domain.

Aggregate Root is the mothership entity inside the aggregate (in our case Computer), it is a common practice to have your repository only work with the entities that are Aggregate Roots, and this entity is responsible for initializing the other entities.

Consider Aggregate Root as an Entry-Point to an Aggregate.

In C# code:

public class Computer : IEntity, IAggregateRoot
{
    public Hardware Hardware { get; set; }
    public Software Software { get; set; }
}

public class Hardware : IEntity { }
public class Software : IValueObject { }

public class Repository<T> : IRepository<T> where T : IAggregateRoot {}

Keep in mind that Hardware would likely be a ValueObject too (do not have identity on its own), consider it as an example only.

javax vs java package

java.* packages are the core Java language packages, meaning that programmers using the Java language had to use them in order to make any worthwhile use of the java language.

javax.* packages are optional packages, which provides a standard, scalable way to make custom APIs available to all applications running on the Java platform.

How to access elements of a JArray (or iterate over them)

There is a much simpler solution for that.
Actually treating the items of JArray as JObject works.
Here is an example:
Let's say we have such array of JSON objects:

JArray jArray = JArray.Parse(@"[
              {
                ""name"": ""Croke Park II"",
                ""url"": ""http://twitter.com/search?q=%22Croke+Park+II%22"",
                ""promoted_content"": null,
                ""query"": ""%22Croke+Park+II%22"",
                ""events"": null
              },
              {
                ""name"": ""Siptu"",
                ""url"": ""http://twitter.com/search?q=Siptu"",
                ""promoted_content"": null,
                ""query"": ""Siptu"",
                ""events"": null
              }]");

To get access each item we just do the following:

foreach (JObject item in jArray)
{
    string name = item.GetValue("name").ToString();
    string url = item.GetValue("url").ToString();
    // ...
}

How to flip background image using CSS?

For what it's worth, for Gecko-based browsers you can't condition this thing off of :visited due to the resulting privacy leaks. See http://hacks.mozilla.org/2010/03/privacy-related-changes-coming-to-css-vistited/

In Java how does one turn a String into a char or a char into a String?

String.valueOf('X') will create you a String "X"

"X".charAt(0) will give you the character 'X'

Best C++ Code Formatter/Beautifier

AStyle can be customized in great detail for C++ and Java (and others too)

This is a source code formatting tool.


clang-format is a powerful command line tool bundled with the clang compiler which handles even the most obscure language constructs in a coherent way.

It can be integrated with Visual Studio, Emacs, Vim (and others) and can format just the selected lines (or with git/svn to format some diff).

It can be configured with a variety of options listed here.

When using config files (named .clang-format) styles can be per directory - the closest such file in parent directories shall be used for a particular file.

Styles can be inherited from a preset (say LLVM or Google) and can later override different options

It is used by Google and others and is production ready.


Also look at the project UniversalIndentGUI. You can experiment with several indenters using it: AStyle, Uncrustify, GreatCode, ... and select the best for you. Any of them can be run later from a command line.


Uncrustify has a lot of configurable options. You'll probably need Universal Indent GUI (in Konstantin's reply) as well to configure it.

Case insensitive 'in'

Here's one way:

if string1.lower() in string2.lower(): 
    ...

For this to work, both string1 and string2 objects must be of type string.

OuterClass.this references the outer class.

Maven: How to change path to target directory from command line?

Colin is correct that a profile should be used. However, his answer hard-codes the target directory in the profile. An alternate solution would be to add a profile like this:

    <profile>
        <id>alternateBuildDir</id>
        <activation>
            <property>
                <name>alt.build.dir</name>
            </property>
        </activation>
        <build>
            <directory>${alt.build.dir}</directory>
        </build>
    </profile>

Doing so would have the effect of changing the build directory to whatever is given by the alt.build.dir property, which can be given in a POM, in the user's settings, or on the command line. If the property is not present, the compilation will happen in the normal target directory.

How to debug a Flask app

For Windows users:

Open Powershell and cd into your project directory.

Use these commandos in Powershell, all the other stuff won't work in Powershell.

How do I set the timeout for a JAX-WS webservice client?

Not sure if this will help in your context...

Can the soap object be cast as a BindingProvider ?

MyWebServiceSoap soap;
MyWebService service = new MyWebService("http://www.google.com");
soap = service.getMyWebServiceSoap();
// set timeouts here
((BindingProvider)soap).getRequestContext().put("com.sun.xml.internal.ws.request.timeout", 10000);
    soap.sendRequestToMyWebService();

On the other hand if you are wanting to set the timeout on the initialization of the MyWebService object then this will not help.

This worked for me when wanting to timeout the individual WebService calls.

Google Maps API - how to get latitude and longitude from Autocomplete without showing the map?

HTML:

<input type="text" id="address" name="address" value=""> //Autocomplete input address

<input type="hidden" name="s_latitude" id="s_latitude" value="" /> //get latitude
<input type="hidden" name="s_longitude" id="s_longitude" value="" /> //get longitude

Javascript:

<script src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=API_KEY&libraries=places&callback=initMap"
async defer></script>

<script>
var input = document.getElementById('address');
var originLatitude = document.getElementById('s_latitude');
var originLongitude = document.getElementById('s_longitude');

var originAutocomplete = new google.maps.places.Autocomplete(input);

    
originAutocomplete.addListener('place_changed', function(event) {
    var place = originAutocomplete.getPlace();

    if (place.hasOwnProperty('place_id')) {
        if (!place.geometry) {
                // window.alert("Autocomplete's returned place contains no geometry");
                return;
        }
        originLatitude.value = place.geometry.location.lat();
        originLongitude.value = place.geometry.location.lng();
    } else {
        service.textSearch({
                query: place.name
        }, function(results, status) {
            if (status == google.maps.places.PlacesServiceStatus.OK) {
                originLatitude.value = results[0].geometry.location.lat();
                originLongitude.value = results[0].geometry.location.lng();
            }
        });
    }
});

Execute a command line binary with Node.js

Now you can use shelljs ( from node v4 ) as follows :

var shell = require('shelljs');

shell.echo('hello world');
shell.exec('node --version')

Replace all 0 values to NA

Because someone asked for the Data.Table version of this, and because the given data.frame solution does not work with data.table, I am providing the solution below.

Basically, use the := operator --> DT[x == 0, x := NA]

library("data.table")

status = as.data.table(occupationalStatus)

head(status, 10)
    origin destination  N
 1:      1           1 50
 2:      2           1 16
 3:      3           1 12
 4:      4           1 11
 5:      5           1  2
 6:      6           1 12
 7:      7           1  0
 8:      8           1  0
 9:      1           2 19
10:      2           2 40


status[N == 0, N := NA]

head(status, 10)
    origin destination  N
 1:      1           1 50
 2:      2           1 16
 3:      3           1 12
 4:      4           1 11
 5:      5           1  2
 6:      6           1 12
 7:      7           1 NA
 8:      8           1 NA
 9:      1           2 19
10:      2           2 40

CSS hide scroll bar, but have element scrollable

if you use sass, you can try this

SQL Server Service not available in service list after installation of SQL Server Management Studio

downloaded Sql server management 2008 r2 and got it installed. Its getting installed but when I try to connect it via .\SQLEXPRESS it shows error. DO I need to install any SQL service on my system?

You installed management studio which is just a management interface to SQL Server. If you didn't (which is what it seems like) already have SQL Server installed, you'll need to install it in order to have it on your system and use it.

CSS Circular Cropping of Rectangle Image

I know many of the solutions mentioned above works, you can as well try flex.

But my image was rectangular and not fitting properly. so this is what i did.

.parentDivClass {
    position: relative;
    height: 100px;
    width: 100px;
    overflow: hidden;
    border-radius: 50%;
    margin: 20px;
    display: flex;
    justify-content: center;
}

and for the image inside, you can use,

child Img {
    display: block;
    margin: 0 auto;
    height: 100%;
    width: auto;
}

This is helpful when you are using bootstrap 4 classes.

How do I disable the resizable property of a textarea?

I found two things:

First

textarea{resize: none}

This is a CSS 3, which is not released yet, compatible with Firefox 4 (and later), Chrome, and Safari.

Another format feature is to overflow: auto to get rid of the right scrollbar, taking into account the dir attribute.

Code and different browsers

Basic HTML

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
    <textarea style="overflow:auto;resize:none" rows="13" cols="20"></textarea>
</body>
</html>

Some browsers

  • Internet Explorer 8

Enter image description here

  • Firefox 17.0.1

HTML anchor link - href and onclick both?

<a href="#Foo" onclick="return runMyFunction();">Do it!</a>

and

function runMyFunction() {
  //code
  return true;
}

This way you will have youf function executed AND you will follow the link AND you will follow the link exactly after your function was successfully run.

Why is nginx responding to any domain name?

There are few ways to specify default server.

First way - Specify default server first in list, if you keep your server configurations in one config file, like Dayo showed above.

Second way (better) More flexible - provide default_server parameter for listen instruction, for example:

server {
    listen  *:80 default_server;
    root /www/project/public/;
}

More information here: Nginx doc / Listen

This way more useful when you keep server configurations in separate files and do not want to name those files alphabetically.

Of Countries and their Cities

Smooth GPS data

I usually use the accelerometers. A sudden change of position in a short period implies high acceleration. If this is not reflected in accelerometer telemetry it is almost certainly due to a change in the "best three" satellites used to compute position (to which I refer as GPS teleporting).

When an asset is at rest and hopping about due to GPS teleporting, if you progressively compute the centroid you are effectively intersecting a larger and larger set of shells, improving precision.

To do this when the asset is not at rest you must estimate its likely next position and orientation based on speed, heading and linear and rotational (if you have gyros) acceleration data. This is more or less what the famous K filter does. You can get the whole thing in hardware for about $150 on an AHRS containing everything but the GPS module, and with a jack to connect one. It has its own CPU and Kalman filtering on board; the results are stable and quite good. Inertial guidance is highly resistant to jitter but drifts with time. GPS is prone to jitter but does not drift with time, they were practically made to compensate each other.

Run Function After Delay

$(document).ready(function() {

  // place this within dom ready function
  function showpanel() {     
    $(".navigation").hide();
    $(".page").children(".panel").fadeIn(1000);
 }

 // use setTimeout() to execute
 setTimeout(showpanel, 1000)

});

Python: fastest way to create a list of n lists

Here are two methods, one sweet and simple(and conceptual), the other more formal and can be extended in a variety of situations, after having read a dataset.

Method 1: Conceptual

X2=[]
X1=[1,2,3]
X2.append(X1)
X3=[4,5,6]
X2.append(X3)
X2 thus has [[1,2,3],[4,5,6]] ie a list of lists. 

Method 2 : Formal and extensible

Another elegant way to store a list as a list of lists of different numbers - which it reads from a file. (The file here has the dataset train) Train is a data-set with say 50 rows and 20 columns. ie. Train[0] gives me the 1st row of a csv file, train[1] gives me the 2nd row and so on. I am interested in separating the dataset with 50 rows as one list, except the column 0 , which is my explained variable here, so must be removed from the orignal train dataset, and then scaling up list after list- ie a list of a list. Here's the code that does that.

Note that I am reading from "1" in the inner loop since I am interested in explanatory variables only. And I re-initialize X1=[] in the other loop, else the X2.append([0:(len(train[0])-1)]) will rewrite X1 over and over again - besides it more memory efficient.

X2=[]
for j in range(0,len(train)):
    X1=[]
    for k in range(1,len(train[0])):
        txt2=train[j][k]
        X1.append(txt2)
    X2.append(X1[0:(len(train[0])-1)])

Body set to overflow-y:hidden but page is still scrollable in Chrome

I finally found a way to fix the issue so I'm answering here.

I set the overflow-y on the #content instead, and wrapped my steps in another div. It works.

Here is the final code:

<body>
  <div id="content">
    <div id="steps">
       <div class="step">this is the 1st step</div>
       <div class="step">this is the 2nd step</div>
       <div class="step">this is the 3rd step</div>
     </div>
   </div>
</body>

#content {
  position:absolute;
  width:100%;
  overflow-y:hidden;
  top:0;
  bottom:0;
}
.step {
  position:relative;
  height:500px;
  margin-bottom:500px;
}

Summernote image upload

This code worked well with new version (v0.8.12) (2019-05-21)

$('#summernote').summernote({
        callbacks: {
            onImageUpload: function(files) {
                for(let i=0; i < files.length; i++) {
                    $.upload(files[i]);
                }
            }
        },
        height: 500,
    });

    $.upload = function (file) {
        let out = new FormData();
        out.append('file', file, file.name);

        $.ajax({
            method: 'POST',
            url: 'upload.php',
            contentType: false,

                $('#summernote').summernote('insertImage', img);
            },
            error: function (jqXHR, textStatus, errorThrown) {
                console.error(textStatus + " " + errorThrown);
            }
        });
    };

PHP Code (upload.php)

    $name = md5(rand(100, 200));
    $ext = explode('.', $_FILES['file']['name']);
    $filename = $name . '.' . $ext[1];
    $destination = 'images/' . $filename; //change this directory
    $location = $_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"];
    move_uploaded_file($location, $destination);
    echo 'images/' . $filename;//change this URL

RecyclerView - How to smooth scroll to top of item on a certain position?

I have create an extension method based on position of items in a list which is bind with recycler view

Smooth scroll in large list takes longer time to scroll , use this to improve speed of scrolling and also have the smooth scroll animation. Cheers!!

fun RecyclerView?.perfectScroll(size: Int,up:Boolean = true ,smooth: Boolean = true) {
this?.apply {
    if (size > 0) {
        if (smooth) {
            val minDirectScroll = 10 // left item to scroll
            //smooth scroll
            if (size > minDirectScroll) {
                //scroll directly to certain position
                val newSize = if (up) minDirectScroll else size - minDirectScroll
                //scroll to new position
                val newPos = newSize  - 1
                //direct scroll
                scrollToPosition(newPos)
                //smooth scroll to rest
                perfectScroll(minDirectScroll, true)

            } else {
                //direct smooth scroll
                smoothScrollToPosition(if (up) 0 else size-1)
            }
        } else {
            //direct scroll
            scrollToPosition(if (up) 0 else size-1)
        }
    }
} }

Just call the method anywhere using

rvList.perfectScroll(list.size,up=true,smooth=true)

Failed to connect to mysql at 127.0.0.1:3306 with user root access denied for user 'root'@'localhost'(using password:YES)

Try this,

I hope this will help You

  1. Uninstalled everything including installer from it's own uninstall option.
  2. Un-installed all the programs that were in any way related to mysql
  3. Deleted the mysql folder from C:\Program Files
  4. Deleted the mysql folder from C:\ProgramData
  5. Cleared my registry and then re-installed the program, but all in vain.

How to repeat: Here is what I did:

  1. Installed it with mysql-installer-web-community-5.6.23.0.msi
  2. For my purposes I selected "Custom" install with MySQL servers 5.6.22 - X64 and MySQL Connectors -> Connector ODBC/5.3.4 - 64
  3. Next -> Execute -(ready to configure) -> Next
  4. Config type: Development machine, all defaults (TCP/IP, Port: 3306, Open firewall)
  5. Typed in MySQL Root Password
  6. MySQL user Accounts -> Add user (username, password, OK) -> Next
  7. Configure MySQL Server as a Windows Service (CHECKED)
  8. Windows Service Name: MySQL56 (default)
  9. Start the MySQL Serve at System Startup
  10. THIS IS CRUCIAL (BUG IS HERE): Run Service as... Standard System Account (CHECKED - but it will be disregarded and that is BUG)
  11. Next -> Execute, Installation hangs on Starting server, so wait for a while to time out (or don't, your choice). When Dialog (might be covered with other windows) popup with message "Configuration of MySQL Server is taking longer than expected..., here click OK (so to wait longer)

Suggested fix: 12. Meanwhile go to Start -> Control Panel -> Administrative Tools -> Services -> find MySQL56, right click on it -> Properties -> select Log On Tab AND HERE IS BUG -> Although Local System Account was selected, Somehow "This account: Network Service (with some password) was selected -> Select Log on as: Local System Account, Allow service to interact with desktop -> Apply -> Go back on general tab

  1. On general tab click on "Start" button to start service and here it is! Service is started! Click on OK to close MySQL56 Properties dialog. Close Services dialog. Close Administrative tools. Close control panel.

  2. And by that time (while you were closing those dialogs) when you look at MySQl Installer Dialog all steps are finished and checked: Starting Server, Applying security... Creating user accounts.. Updating Start menu link

  3. Confirm with Finish -> Next -> Finish That's it, happy MySQL-ing :)

How to delete/truncate tables from Hadoop-Hive?

Use the following to delete all the tables in a linux environment.

hive -e 'show tables' | xargs -I '{}' hive -e 'drop table {}'

How can I get a web site's favicon?

You'll want to tackle this a few ways:

  1. Look for the favicon.ico at the root of the domain

    www.domain.com/favicon.ico

  2. Look for a <link> tag with the rel="shortcut icon" attribute

    <link rel="shortcut icon" href="/favicon.ico" />

  3. Look for a <link> tag with the rel="icon" attribute

    <link rel="icon" href="/favicon.png" />

The latter two will usually yield a higher quality image.


Just to cover all of the bases, there are device specific icon files that might yield higher quality images since these devices usually have larger icons on the device than a browser would need:

<link rel="apple-touch-icon" href="images/touch.png" />

<link rel="apple-touch-icon-precomposed" href="images/touch.png" />


And to download the icon without caring what the icon is you can use a utility like http://www.google.com/s2/favicons which will do all of the heavy lifting:

var client = new System.Net.WebClient();

client.DownloadFile(
    @"http://www.google.com/s2/favicons?domain=stackoverflow.com",
    "stackoverflow.com.ico");

Difference between modes a, a+, w, w+, and r+ in built-in open function?

I find it important to note that python 3 defines the opening modes differently to the answers here that were correct for Python 2.

The Pyhton 3 opening modes are:

'r' open for reading (default)
'w' open for writing, truncating the file first
'x' open for exclusive creation, failing if the file already exists
'a' open for writing, appending to the end of the file if it exists
----
'b' binary mode
't' text mode (default)
'+' open a disk file for updating (reading and writing)
'U' universal newlines mode (for backwards compatibility; should not be used in new code)

The modes r, w, x, a are combined with the mode modifiers b or t. + is optionally added, U should be avoided.

As I found out the hard way, it is a good idea to always specify t when opening a file in text mode since r is an alias for rt in the standard open() function but an alias for rb in the open() functions of all compression modules (when e.g. reading a *.bz2 file).

Thus the modes for opening a file should be:

rt / wt / xt / at for reading / writing / creating / appending to a file in text mode and

rb / wb / xb / ab for reading / writing / creating / appending to a file in binary mode.

Use + as before.

Count the cells with same color in google spreadsheet

function countbackgrounds() {
 var book = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
 var sheet = book.getActiveSheet();
 var range_input = sheet.getRange("B3:B4");
 var range_output = sheet.getRange("B6");
 var cell_colors = range_input.getBackgroundColors();
 var color = "#58FA58";
 var count = 0;

 for(var r = 0; r < cell_colors.length; r++) {
   for(var c = 0; c < cell_colors[0].length; c++) {
     if(cell_colors[r][c] == color) {
       count = count + 1;
     }
   }
 }
    range_output.setValue(count);
 }

Changing line colors with ggplot()

color and fill are separate aesthetics. Since you want to modify the color you need to use the corresponding scale:

d + scale_color_manual(values=c("#CC6666", "#9999CC"))

is what you want.

"Unorderable types: int() < str()"

The issue here is that input() returns a string in Python 3.x, so when you do your comparison, you are comparing a string and an integer, which isn't well defined (what if the string is a word, how does one compare a string and a number?) - in this case Python doesn't guess, it throws an error.

To fix this, simply call int() to convert your string to an integer:

int(input(...))

As a note, if you want to deal with decimal numbers, you will want to use one of float() or decimal.Decimal() (depending on your accuracy and speed needs).

Note that the more pythonic way of looping over a series of numbers (as opposed to a while loop and counting) is to use range(). For example:

def main():
    print("Let me Retire Financial Calculator")
    deposit = float(input("Please input annual deposit in dollars: $"))
    rate = int(input ("Please input annual rate in percentage: %")) / 100
    time = int(input("How many years until retirement?"))
    value = 0
    for x in range(1, time+1):
        value = (value * rate) + deposit
        print("The value of your account after" + str(x) + "years will be $" + str(value))

Why do access tokens expire?

This is very much implementation specific, but the general idea is to allow providers to issue short term access tokens with long term refresh tokens. Why?

  • Many providers support bearer tokens which are very weak security-wise. By making them short-lived and requiring refresh, they limit the time an attacker can abuse a stolen token.
  • Large scale deployment don't want to perform a database lookup every API call, so instead they issue self-encoded access token which can be verified by decryption. However, this also means there is no way to revoke these tokens so they are issued for a short time and must be refreshed.
  • The refresh token requires client authentication which makes it stronger. Unlike the above access tokens, it is usually implemented with a database lookup.

Breaking out of a nested loop

Is it possible to refactor the nested for loop into a private method? That way you could simply 'return' out of the method to exit the loop.

Java - How to convert type collection into ArrayList?

More information needed for a definitive answer, but this code

myNodeList = (ArrayList<MyNode>)this.getVertices();

will only work if this.getVertices() returns a (subtype of) List<MyNode>. If it is a different collection (like your Exception seems to indicate), you want to use

new ArrayList<MyNode>(this.getVertices())

This will work as long as a Collection type is returned by getVertices.

How to set up subdomains on IIS 7

This one drove me crazy... basically you need two things:

1) Make sure your DNS is setup to point to your subdomain. This means to make sure you have an A Record in the DNS for your subdomain and point to the same IP.

2) You must add an additional website in IIS 7 named subdomain.example.com

  • Sites > Add Website
  • Site Name: subdomain.example.com
  • Physical Path: select the subdomain directory
  • Binding: same ip as example.com
  • Host name: subdomain.example.com

Jquery - How to get the style display attribute "none / block"

If you're using jquery 1.6.2 you only need to code

$('#theid').css('display')

for example:

if($('#theid').css('display') == 'none'){ 
   $('#theid').show('slow'); 
} else { 
   $('#theid').hide('slow'); 
}

PostgreSQL visual interface similar to phpMyAdmin?

I would also highly recommend Adminer - http://www.adminer.org/

It is much faster than phpMyAdmin, does less funky iframe stuff, and supports both MySQL and PostgreSQL.

Why does .json() return a promise?

This difference is due to the behavior of Promises more than fetch() specifically.

When a .then() callback returns an additional Promise, the next .then() callback in the chain is essentially bound to that Promise, receiving its resolve or reject fulfillment and value.

The 2nd snippet could also have been written as:

iterator.then(response =>
    response.json().then(post => document.write(post.title))
);

In both this form and yours, the value of post is provided by the Promise returned from response.json().


When you return a plain Object, though, .then() considers that a successful result and resolves itself immediately, similar to:

iterator.then(response =>
    Promise.resolve({
      data: response.json(),
      status: response.status
    })
    .then(post => document.write(post.data))
);

post in this case is simply the Object you created, which holds a Promise in its data property. The wait for that promise to be fulfilled is still incomplete.

Changing the URL in react-router v4 without using Redirect or Link

This is how I did a similar thing. I have tiles that are thumbnails to YouTube videos. When I click the tile, it redirects me to a 'player' page that uses the 'video_id' to render the correct video to the page.

<GridTile
  key={video_id}
  title={video_title}
  containerElement={<Link to={`/player/${video_id}`}/>}
 >

ETA: Sorry, just noticed that you didn't want to use the LINK or REDIRECT components for some reason. Maybe my answer will still help in some way. ; )

How do I make a fully statically linked .exe with Visual Studio Express 2005?

For the C-runtime go to the project settings, choose C/C++ then 'Code Generation'. Change the 'runtime library' setting to 'multithreaded' instead of 'multithreaded dll'.

If you are using any other libraries you may need to tell the linker to ignore the dynamically linked CRT explicitly.

How do you convert an entire directory with ffmpeg?

Another simple solution that hasn't been suggested yet would be to use xargs:

ls *.avi | xargs -i -n1 ffmpeg -i {} "{}.mp4"

One minor pitfall is the awkward naming of output files (e.g. input.avi.mp4). A possible workaround for this might be:

ls *.avi | xargs -i -n1 bash -c "i={}; ffmpeg -i {} "\${i%.*}.mp4""

Regular Expression to match string starting with a specific word

I'd advise against a simple regular expression approach to this problem. There are too many words that are substrings of other unrelated words, and you'll probably drive yourself crazy trying to overadapt the simpler solutions already provided.

You'll want at least a naive stemming algorithm (try the Porter stemmer; there's available, free code in most languages) to process text first. Keep this processed text and the preprocessed text in two separate space-split arrays. Make sure each non-alphabetical character also gets its own index in this array. Whatever list of words you're filtering, stem them also.

The next step would be to find the array indices which match to your list of stemmed 'stop' words. Remove those from the unprocessed array, and then rejoin on spaces.

This is only slightly more complicated, but will be much more reliable an approach. If you've got any doubts on the value of a more NLP-oriented approach, you might want to do some research into clbuttic mistakes.

No Network Security Config specified, using platform default - Android Log

This occurs to the api 28 and above, because doesn't accept http anymore, you need to change if you want to accept http or localhost requests.

  1. Create an XML file Create XML file

  2. Add the following code on the new XML file you created Add base-config

  3. Add this on AndroidManifest.xml Add this code line

get the value of input type file , and alert if empty

There should be

Creating a directory in /sdcard fails

There are three things to consider here:

  1. Don't assume that the sd card is mounted at /sdcard (May be true in the default case, but better not to hard code.). You can get the location of sdcard by querying the system:

    Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory();
    
  2. You have to inform Android that your application needs to write to external storage by adding a uses-permission entry in the AndroidManifest.xml file:

    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"/>
    
  3. If this directory already exists, then mkdir is going to return false. So check for the existence of the directory, and then try creating it if it does not exist. In your component, use something like:

    File folder = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() + "/map");
    boolean success = true;
    if (!folder.exists()) {
        success = folder.mkdir();
    }
    if (success) {
        // Do something on success
    } else {
        // Do something else on failure 
    }
    

Number of lines in a file in Java

/**
 * Count file rows.
 *
 * @param file file
 * @return file row count
 * @throws IOException
 */
public static long getLineCount(File file) throws IOException {

    try (Stream<String> lines = Files.lines(file.toPath())) {
        return lines.count();
    }
}

Tested on JDK8_u31. But indeed performance is slow compared to this method:

/**
 * Count file rows.
 *
 * @param file file
 * @return file row count
 * @throws IOException
 */
public static long getLineCount(File file) throws IOException {

    try (BufferedInputStream is = new BufferedInputStream(new FileInputStream(file), 1024)) {

        byte[] c = new byte[1024];
        boolean empty = true,
                lastEmpty = false;
        long count = 0;
        int read;
        while ((read = is.read(c)) != -1) {
            for (int i = 0; i < read; i++) {
                if (c[i] == '\n') {
                    count++;
                    lastEmpty = true;
                } else if (lastEmpty) {
                    lastEmpty = false;
                }
            }
            empty = false;
        }

        if (!empty) {
            if (count == 0) {
                count = 1;
            } else if (!lastEmpty) {
                count++;
            }
        }

        return count;
    }
}

Tested and very fast.

How to return a class object by reference in C++?

Well, it is maybe not a really beautiful solution in the code, but it is really beautiful in the interface of your function. And it is also very efficient. It is ideal if the second is more important for you (for example, you are developing a library).

The trick is this:

  1. A line A a = b.make(); is internally converted to a constructor of A, i.e. as if you had written A a(b.make());.
  2. Now b.make() should result a new class, with a callback function.
  3. This whole thing can be fine handled only by classes, without any template.

Here is my minimal example. Check only the main(), as you can see it is simple. The internals aren't.

From the viewpoint of the speed: the size of a Factory::Mediator class is only 2 pointers, which is more that 1 but not more. And this is the only object in the whole thing which is transferred by value.

#include <stdio.h>

class Factory {
  public:
    class Mediator;

    class Result {
      public:
        Result() {
          printf ("Factory::Result::Result()\n");
        };

        Result(Mediator fm) {
          printf ("Factory::Result::Result(Mediator)\n");
          fm.call(this);
        };
    };

    typedef void (*MakeMethod)(Factory* factory, Result* result);

    class Mediator {
      private:
        Factory* factory;
        MakeMethod makeMethod;

      public:
        Mediator(Factory* factory, MakeMethod makeMethod) {
          printf ("Factory::Mediator::Mediator(Factory*, MakeMethod)\n");
          this->factory = factory;
          this->makeMethod = makeMethod;
        };

        void call(Result* result) {
          printf ("Factory::Mediator::call(Result*)\n");
          (*makeMethod)(factory, result);
        };
    };
};

class A;

class B : private Factory {
  private:
    int v;

  public:
    B(int v) {
      printf ("B::B()\n");
      this->v = v;
    };

    int getV() const {
      printf ("B::getV()\n");
      return v;
    };

    static void makeCb(Factory* f, Factory::Result* a);

    Factory::Mediator make() {
      printf ("Factory::Mediator B::make()\n");
      return Factory::Mediator(static_cast<Factory*>(this), &B::makeCb);
    };
};

class A : private Factory::Result {
  friend class B;

  private:
    int v;

  public:
    A() {
      printf ("A::A()\n");
      v = 0;
    };

    A(Factory::Mediator fm) : Factory::Result(fm) {
      printf ("A::A(Factory::Mediator)\n");
    };

    int getV() const {
      printf ("A::getV()\n");
      return v;
    };

    void setV(int v) {
      printf ("A::setV(%i)\n", v);
      this->v = v;
    };
};

void B::makeCb(Factory* f, Factory::Result* r) {
      printf ("B::makeCb(Factory*, Factory::Result*)\n");
      B* b = static_cast<B*>(f);
      A* a = static_cast<A*>(r);
      a->setV(b->getV()+1);
    };

int main(int argc, char **argv) {
  B b(42);
  A a = b.make();
  printf ("a.v = %i\n", a.getV());
  return 0;
}

Using sudo with Python script

I used this for python 3.5. I did it using subprocess module.Using the password like this is very insecure.

The subprocess module takes command as a list of strings so either create a list beforehand using split() or pass the whole list later. Read the documentation for moreinformation.

#!/usr/bin/env python
import subprocess

sudoPassword = 'mypass'
command = 'mount -t vboxsf myfolder /home/myuser/myfolder'.split()

cmd1 = subprocess.Popen(['echo',sudoPassword], stdout=subprocess.PIPE)
cmd2 = subprocess.Popen(['sudo','-S'] + command, stdin=cmd1.stdout, stdout=subprocess.PIPE)

output = cmd2.stdout.read.decode()

Set Windows process (or user) memory limit

Use Windows Job Objects. Jobs are like process groups and can limit memory usage and process priority.

Why is the default value of the string type null instead of an empty string?

If the default value of string were the empty string, I would not have to test

Wrong! Changing the default value doesn't change the fact that it's a reference type and someone can still explicitly set the reference to be null.

Additionally Nullable<String> would make sense.

True point. It would make more sense to not allow null for any reference types, instead requiring Nullable<TheRefType> for that feature.

So why did the designers of C# choose to use null as the default value of strings?

Consistency with other reference types. Now, why allow null in reference types at all? Probably so that it feels like C, even though this is a questionable design decision in a language that also provides Nullable.

C++11 thread-safe queue

How to create javascript delay function

You can create a delay using the following example

setInterval(function(){alert("Hello")},3000);

Replace 3000 with # of milliseconds

You can place the content of what you want executed inside the function.

Using CSS :before and :after pseudo-elements with inline CSS?

If you have control over the HTML then you could add a real element instead of a pseudo one. :before and :after pseudo elements are rendered right after the open tag or right before the close tag. The inline equivalent for this css

td { text-align: justify; }
td:after { content: ""; display: inline-block; width: 100%; }

Would be something like this:

<table>
<tr>
<td style="text-align: justify;">
TD Content
<span class="inline_td_after" style="display: inline-block; width: 100%;"></span>
</td>
</tr>
</table>

Keep in mind; Your "real" before and after elements and anything with inline css will greatly increase the size of your pages and ignore page load optimizations that external css and pseudo elements make possible.

How to send a "multipart/form-data" with requests in python?

Basically, if you specify a files parameter (a dictionary), then requests will send a multipart/form-data POST instead of a application/x-www-form-urlencoded POST. You are not limited to using actual files in that dictionary, however:

>>> import requests
>>> response = requests.post('http://httpbin.org/post', files=dict(foo='bar'))
>>> response.status_code
200

and httpbin.org lets you know what headers you posted with; in response.json() we have:

>>> from pprint import pprint
>>> pprint(response.json()['headers'])
{'Accept': '*/*',
 'Accept-Encoding': 'gzip, deflate',
 'Connection': 'close',
 'Content-Length': '141',
 'Content-Type': 'multipart/form-data; '
                 'boundary=c7cbfdd911b4e720f1dd8f479c50bc7f',
 'Host': 'httpbin.org',
 'User-Agent': 'python-requests/2.21.0'}

Better still, you can further control the filename, content type and additional headers for each part by using a tuple instead of a single string or bytes object. The tuple is expected to contain between 2 and 4 elements; the filename, the content, optionally a content type, and an optional dictionary of further headers.

I'd use the tuple form with None as the filename, so that the filename="..." parameter is dropped from the request for those parts:

>>> files = {'foo': 'bar'}
>>> print(requests.Request('POST', 'http://httpbin.org/post', files=files).prepare().body.decode('utf8'))
--bb3f05a247b43eede27a124ef8b968c5
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="foo"; filename="foo"

bar
--bb3f05a247b43eede27a124ef8b968c5--
>>> files = {'foo': (None, 'bar')}
>>> print(requests.Request('POST', 'http://httpbin.org/post', files=files).prepare().body.decode('utf8'))
--d5ca8c90a869c5ae31f70fa3ddb23c76
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="foo"

bar
--d5ca8c90a869c5ae31f70fa3ddb23c76--

files can also be a list of two-value tuples, if you need ordering and/or multiple fields with the same name:

requests.post(
    'http://requestb.in/xucj9exu',
    files=(
        ('foo', (None, 'bar')),
        ('foo', (None, 'baz')),
        ('spam', (None, 'eggs')),
    )
)

If you specify both files and data, then it depends on the value of data what will be used to create the POST body. If data is a string, only it willl be used; otherwise both data and files are used, with the elements in data listed first.

There is also the excellent requests-toolbelt project, which includes advanced Multipart support. It takes field definitions in the same format as the files parameter, but unlike requests, it defaults to not setting a filename parameter. In addition, it can stream the request from open file objects, where requests will first construct the request body in memory:

from requests_toolbelt.multipart.encoder import MultipartEncoder

mp_encoder = MultipartEncoder(
    fields={
        'foo': 'bar',
        # plain file object, no filename or mime type produces a
        # Content-Disposition header with just the part name
        'spam': ('spam.txt', open('spam.txt', 'rb'), 'text/plain'),
    }
)
r = requests.post(
    'http://httpbin.org/post',
    data=mp_encoder,  # The MultipartEncoder is posted as data, don't use files=...!
    # The MultipartEncoder provides the content-type header with the boundary:
    headers={'Content-Type': mp_encoder.content_type}
)

Fields follow the same conventions; use a tuple with between 2 and 4 elements to add a filename, part mime-type or extra headers. Unlike the files parameter, no attempt is made to find a default filename value if you don't use a tuple.

javascript regular expression to check for IP addresses

\b(?:[0-9]{1,3}\.){3}[0-9]{1,3}\b

matches 0.0.0.0 through 999.999.999.999 use if you know the seachdata does not contain invalid IP addresses

\b(25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|[01]?[0-9][0-9]?)\.(25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|[01]?[0-9][0-9]?)\.(25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|[01]?[0-9][0-9]?)\.(25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|[01]?[0-9][0-9]?)\b

use to match IP numbers with accurracy - each of the 4 numbers is stored into it's own capturing group, so you can access them later

Remove specific characters from a string in Javascript

Another way to do it:

rnum = rnum.split("F0").pop()

It splits the string into two: ["", "123456"], then selects the last element.

Python - 'ascii' codec can't decode byte

You can try this

What does the 'standalone' directive mean in XML?

Markup declarations can affect the content of the document, as passed from an XML processor to an application; examples are attribute defaults and entity declarations. The standalone document declaration, which may appear as a component of the XML declaration, signals whether or not there are such declarations which appear external to the document entity or in parameter entities. [Definition: An external markup declaration is defined as a markup declaration occurring in the external subset or in a parameter entity (external or internal, the latter being included because non-validating processors are not required to read them).]

WPF Button with Image

Most simple approach would be using the Image tag.

<Button Name="btn" Width="26" Height="26" Click="btnClick"> 
   <Image Source="Resource/btn-icon.png"/>
</Button>

Suppose your image file is added in Resource folder

How do you create an asynchronous method in C#?

I don't recommend StartNew unless you need that level of complexity.

If your async method is dependent on other async methods, the easiest approach is to use the async keyword:

private static async Task<DateTime> CountToAsync(int num = 10)
{
  for (int i = 0; i < num; i++)
  {
    await Task.Delay(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(1));
  }

  return DateTime.Now;
}

If your async method is doing CPU work, you should use Task.Run:

private static async Task<DateTime> CountToAsync(int num = 10)
{
  await Task.Run(() => ...);
  return DateTime.Now;
}

You may find my async/await intro helpful.

Print time in a batch file (milliseconds)

If you're doing something like

for /l %%i in (1,1,500) do @echo %time%

or

if foo (
    echo %time%
    do_something
    echo %time%
)

then you could simply put a setlocal enabledelayedexpansion at the beginning of your batch file and use !time! instead of %time% which gets evaluated on execution, not on parsing the line (which includes complete blocks enclosed in parentheses).

Docker: Multiple Dockerfiles in project

Use docker-compose and multiple Dockerfile in separate directories

Don't rename your Dockerfile to Dockerfile.db or Dockerfile.web, it may not be supported by your IDE and you will lose syntax highlighting.

As Kingsley Uchnor said, you can have multiple Dockerfile, one per directory, which represent something you want to build.

I like to have a docker folder which holds each applications and their configuration. Here's an example project folder hierarchy for a web application that has a database.

docker-compose.yml
docker
+-- web
¦   +-- Dockerfile
+-- db
    +-- Dockerfile

docker-compose.yml example:

version: '3'
services:
  web:
    # will build ./docker/web/Dockerfile
    build: ./docker/web
    ports:
     - "5000:5000"
    volumes:
     - .:/code
  db:
    # will build ./docker/db/Dockerfile
    build: ./docker/db
    ports:
      - "3306:3306"
  redis:
    # will use docker hub's redis prebuilt image from here:
    # https://hub.docker.com/_/redis/
    image: "redis:alpine"

docker-compose command line usage example:

# The following command will create and start all containers in the background
# using docker-compose.yml from current directory
docker-compose up -d

# get help
docker-compose --help

In case you need files from previous folders when building your Dockerfile

You can still use the above solution and place your Dockerfile in a directory such as docker/web/Dockerfile, all you need is to set the build context in your docker-compose.yml like this:

version: '3'
services:
  web:
    build:
      context: .
      dockerfile: ./docker/web/Dockerfile
    ports:
     - "5000:5000"
    volumes:
     - .:/code

This way, you'll be able to have things like this:

config-on-root.ini
docker-compose.yml
docker
+-- web
    +-- Dockerfile
    +-- some-other-config.ini

and a ./docker/web/Dockerfile like this:

FROM alpine:latest

COPY config-on-root.ini /
COPY docker/web/some-other-config.ini /

Here are some quick commands from tldr docker-compose. Make sure you refer to official documentation for more details.

How do I add PHP code/file to HTML(.html) files?

You can modify .htaccess like others said, but the fastest solution is to rename the file extension to .php

Why use sys.path.append(path) instead of sys.path.insert(1, path)?

you are confusing the concept of appending and prepending. the following code is prepending:

sys.path.insert(1,'/thePathToYourFolder/')

it places the new information at the beginning (well, second, to be precise) of the search sequence that your interpreter will go through. sys.path.append() puts things at the very end of the search sequence.

it is advisable that you use something like virtualenv instead of manually coding your package directories into the PYTHONPATH everytime. for setting up various ecosystems that separate your site-packages and possible versions of python, read these two blogs:

  1. python ecosystems introduction

  2. bootstrapping python virtual environments

if you do decide to move down the path to environment isolation you would certainly benefit by looking into virtualenvwrapper: http://www.doughellmann.com/docs/virtualenvwrapper/

Get decimal portion of a number with JavaScript

The simplest way to comma-delimit a list?

There is a pretty way to achieve this using Java 8:

List<String> list = Arrays.asList(array);
String joinedString = String.join(",", list);

Populating a ComboBox using C#

Define a class

public class Language
{
     public string Name { get; set; }
     public string Value { get; set; }
}

then...

//Build a list
var dataSource = new List<Language>();
dataSource.Add(new Language() { Name = "blah", Value = "blah" });
dataSource.Add(new Language() { Name = "blah", Value = "blah" });
dataSource.Add(new Language() { Name = "blah", Value = "blah" });

//Setup data binding
this.comboBox1.DataSource = dataSource;
this.comboBox1.DisplayMember = "Name";
this.comboBox1.ValueMember = "Value";

// make it readonly
this.comboBox1.DropDownStyle = ComboBoxStyle.DropDownList;

Java check to see if a variable has been initialized

Instance variables or fields, along with static variables, are assigned default values based on the variable type:

  • int: 0
  • char: \u0000 or 0
  • double: 0.0
  • boolean: false
  • reference: null

Just want to clarify that local variables (ie. declared in block, eg. method, for loop, while loop, try-catch, etc.) are not initialized to default values and must be explicitly initialized.

File path issues in R using Windows ("Hex digits in character string" error)

Bootstrap 3 2-column form layout

As mentioned earlier, you can use the grid system to layout your inputs and labels anyway that you want. The trick is to remember that you can use rows within your columns to break them into twelfths as well.

The example below is one possible way to accomplish your goal and will put the two text boxes near Label3 on the same line when the screen is small or larger.

How do I add a auto_increment primary key in SQL Server database?

If the table already contains data and you want to change one of the columns to identity:

First create a new table that has the same columns and specify the primary key-kolumn:

create table TempTable
(
    Id int not null identity(1, 1) primary key
    --, Other columns...
)

Then copy all rows from the original table to the new table using a standard insert-statement.

Then drop the original table.

And finally rename TempTable to whatever you want using sp_rename:

sudo ln -s /etc/php/7.1/mods-available/mcrypt.ini /etc/php/7.2/mods-available

After enabling mcrypt by sudo phpenmod mcrypt, it gets available.

Changing tab bar item image and text color iOS

From UITabBarItem class docs:

By default, the actual unselected and selected images are automatically created from the alpha values in the source images. To prevent system coloring, provide images with UIImageRenderingModeAlwaysOriginal.

The clue is not whether you use UIImageRenderingModeAlwaysOriginal, the important thing is when to use it.

To prevent the grey color for unselected items, you will just need to prevent the system colouring for the unselected image. Here is how to do this:

var firstViewController:UIViewController = UIViewController()
// The following statement is what you need
var customTabBarItem:UITabBarItem = UITabBarItem(title: nil, image: UIImage(named: "YOUR_IMAGE_NAME")?.imageWithRenderingMode(UIImageRenderingMode.AlwaysOriginal), selectedImage: UIImage(named: "YOUR_IMAGE_NAME"))
firstViewController.tabBarItem = customTabBarItem

As you can see, I asked iOS to apply the original color (white, yellow, red, whatever) of the image ONLY for the UNSELECTED state, and leave the image as it is for the SELECTED state.

Also, you may need to add a tint color for the tab bar in order to apply a different color for the SELECTED state (instead of the default iOS blue color). As per your screenshot above, you are applying white color for the selected state:

self.tabBar.tintColor = UIColor.whiteColor()

My 2 cents:

You can find the system error codes here: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms681382(v=vs.85).aspx

You will find the typical codes like 2 for "file not found" or 5 for "access denied".

Return multiple values in JavaScript?

A very common way to return multiple values in javascript is using an object literals, so something like:

const myFunction = () => {
  const firstName = "Alireza", 
        familyName = "Dezfoolian",
        age = 35;
  return { firstName, familyName, age};
}

and get the values like this:

myFunction().firstName; //Alireza
myFunction().familyName; //Dezfoolian
myFunction().age; //age

or even a shorter way:

const {firstName, familyName, age} = myFunction();

and get them individually like:

firstName; //Alireza
familyName; //Dezfoolian
age; //35

Javascript: Setting location.href versus location

One difference to keep in mind, though.

Let's say you want to build some URL using the current URL. The following code will in fact redirect you, because it's not calling String.replace but Location.replace:

nextUrl = window.location.replace('/step1', '/step2');

The following codes work:

// cast to string
nextUrl = (window.location+'').replace('/step1', '/step2');

// href property
nextUrl = window.location.href.replace('/step1', '/step2');

How to set custom header in Volley Request

Looking for solution to this problem as well. see something here: http://developer.android.com/training/volley/request.html

is it a good idea to directly use ImageRequest instead of ImageLoader? Seems ImageLoader uses it internally anyway. Does it miss anything important other than ImageLoader's cache support?

ImageView mImageView;
String url = "http://i.imgur.com/7spzG.png";
mImageView = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.myImage);
...

// Retrieves an image specified by the URL, displays it in the UI.
mRequestQueue = Volley.newRequestQueue(context);;
ImageRequest request = new ImageRequest(url,
  new Response.Listener() {
      @Override
      public void onResponse(Bitmap bitmap) {
          mImageView.setImageBitmap(bitmap);
      }
  }, 0, 0, null,
  new Response.ErrorListener() {
      public void onErrorResponse(VolleyError error) {
          mImageView.setImageResource(R.drawable.image_load_error);
      }
  })   {
    @Override
    public Map<String, String> getHeaders() throws AuthFailureError {
        Map<String, String> params = new Map<String, String>();
        params.put("User-Agent", "one");
        params.put("header22", "two");

        return params;
    };
mRequestQueue.add(request);

RSA Public Key format

You can't just change the delimiters from ---- BEGIN SSH2 PUBLIC KEY ---- to -----BEGIN RSA PUBLIC KEY----- and expect that it will be sufficient to convert from one format to another (which is what you've done in your example).

This article has a good explanation about both formats.

What you get in an RSA PUBLIC KEY is closer to the content of a PUBLIC KEY, but you need to offset the start of your ASN.1 structure to reflect the fact that PUBLIC KEY also has an indicator saying which type of key it is (see RFC 3447). You can see this using openssl asn1parse and -strparse 19, as described in this answer.

EDIT: Following your edit, your can get the details of your RSA PUBLIC KEY structure using grep -v -- ----- | tr -d '\n' | base64 -d | openssl asn1parse -inform DER:

    0:d=0  hl=4 l= 266 cons: SEQUENCE          
    4:d=1  hl=4 l= 257 prim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
  265:d=1  hl=2 l=   3 prim: INTEGER           :010001

To decode the SSH key format, you need to use the data format specification in RFC 4251 too, in conjunction with RFC 4253:

   The "ssh-rsa" key format has the following specific encoding:

      string    "ssh-rsa"
      mpint     e
      mpint     n

For example, at the beginning, you get 00 00 00 07 73 73 68 2d 72 73 61. The first four bytes (00 00 00 07) give you the length. The rest is the string itself: 73=s, 68=h, ... -> 73 73 68 2d 72 73 61=ssh-rsa, followed by the exponent of length 1 (00 00 00 01 25) and the modulus of length 256 (00 00 01 00 7f ...).

How to style an asp.net menu with CSS

Just want to throw something in to help people still having this problem. (for me at least) the css is showing that it puts default classes of level1, level2, and level3 on each piece of the menu(level 1 being the menu, level2 being the first dropdown, level3 being the third popout). Setting the padding in css

.level2
{
padding: 2px 2px 2px 2px;
}

does work for adding the padding to each li in the first dropdown.

Undefined index with $_POST

Use:

if (isset($_POST['user'])) {
   //do something
}

But you probably should be using some more proper validation. Try a simple regex or a rock-solid implementation from Zend Framework or Symfony.

http://framework.zend.com/manual/en/zend.validate.introduction.html

http://symfony.com/doc/current/book/validation.html

Or even the built-in filter extension:

http://php.net/manual/en/function.filter-var.php

Never trust user input, be smart. Don't trust anything. Always make sure what you receive is really what you expect. If it should be a number, make SURE it's a number.

Much improved code:

$user = filter_var($_POST['user'], FILTER_SANITIZE_STRING);
$isValid = filter_var($user, FILTER_VALIDATE_REGEXP, array('options' => array('regexp' => "/^[a-zA-Z0-9]+$/")));

if ($isValid) {
    // do something
}

Can you set a border opacity in CSS?

As others have mentioned: CSS-3 says that you can use the rgba(...) syntax to specify a border color with an opacity (alpha) value.

here's a quick example if you'd like to check it.

  • It works in Safari and Chrome (probably works in all webkit browsers).

  • It works in Firefox

  • I doubt that it works at all in IE, but I suspect that there is some filter or behavior that will make it work.

There's also this stackoverflow post, which suggests some other issues--namely, that the border renders on-top-of any background color (or background image) that you've specified; thus limiting the usefulness of border alpha in many cases.

How do you get AngularJS to bind to the title attribute of an A tag?

Sometimes it is not desirable to use interpolation on title attribute or on any other attributes as for that matter, because they get parsed before the interpolation takes place. So:

<!-- dont do this -->
<!-- <a title="{{product.shortDesc}}" ...> -->

If an attribute with a binding is prefixed with the ngAttr prefix (denormalized as ng-attr-) then during the binding will be applied to the corresponding unprefixed attribute. This allows you to bind to attributes that would otherwise be eagerly processed by browsers. The attribute will be set only when the binding is done. The prefix is then removed:

<!-- do this -->
<a ng-attr-title="{{product.shortDesc}}" ...>

(Ensure that you are not using a very earlier version of Angular). Here's a demo fiddle using v1.2.2:

Loop through each row of a range in Excel

In Loops, I always prefer to use the Cells class, using the R1C1 reference method, like this:

Cells(rr, col).Formula = ...

This allows me to quickly and easily loop over a Range of cells easily:

Dim r As Long
Dim c As Long

c = GetTargetColumn() ' Or you could just set this manually, like: c = 1

With Sheet1 ' <-- You should always qualify a range with a sheet!

    For r = 1 To 10 ' Or 1 To (Ubound(MyListOfStuff) + 1)

        ' Here we're looping over all the cells in rows 1 to 10, in Column "c"
        .Cells(r, c).Value = MyListOfStuff(r)

        '---- or ----

        '...to easily copy from one place to another (even with an offset of rows and columns)
        .Cells(r, c).Value = Sheet2.Cells(r + 3, 17).Value


    Next r

You can install directly from the official repository:

Settings > Plugins > search for makefile > Search in repositories > Install > Restart

There are at least three different ways to run:

  1. Right click on a makefile and select Run
  2. Have the makefile open in the editor, put the cursor over one target (anywhere on the line), hit alt + enter, then select make target
  3. Hit ctrl/cmd + shift + F10 on a target (although this one didn't work for me on a mac).

It opens a pane named Run target with the output.

Android/Java - Date Difference in days

All of these solutions suffer from one of two problems. Either the solution isn't perfectly accurate due to rounding errors, leap days and seconds, etc. or you end up looping over the number of days in between your two unknown dates.

This solution solves the first problem, and improves the second by a factor of roughly 365, better if you know what your max range is.

/**
 * @param thisDate
 * @param thatDate
 * @param maxDays
 *            set to -1 to not set a max
 * @returns number of days covered between thisDate and thatDate, inclusive, i.e., counting both
 *          thisDate and thatDate as an entire day. Will short out if the number of days exceeds
 *          or meets maxDays
 */
public static int daysCoveredByDates(Date thisDate, Date thatDate, int maxDays) {
    //Check inputs
    if (thisDate == null || thatDate == null) {
        return -1;
    }

    //Set calendar objects
    Calendar startCal = Calendar.getInstance();
    Calendar endCal = Calendar.getInstance();
    if (thisDate.before(thatDate)) {
        startCal.setTime(thisDate);
        endCal.setTime(thatDate);
    }
    else {
        startCal.setTime(thatDate);
        endCal.setTime(thisDate);
    }

    //Get years and dates of our times.
    int startYear = startCal.get(Calendar.YEAR);
    int endYear = endCal.get(Calendar.YEAR);
    int startDay = startCal.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_YEAR);
    int endDay = endCal.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_YEAR);

    //Calculate the number of days between dates.  Add up each year going by until we catch up to endDate.
    while (startYear < endYear && maxDays >= 0 && endDay - startDay + 1 < maxDays) {
        endDay += startCal.getActualMaximum(Calendar.DAY_OF_YEAR); //adds the number of days in the year startDate is currently in
        ++startYear;
        startCal.set(Calendar.YEAR, startYear); //reup the year
    }
    int days = endDay - startDay + 1;

    //Honor the maximum, if set
    if (maxDays >= 0) {
        days = Math.min(days, maxDays);
    }
    return days;
}

If you need days between dates (uninclusive of the latter date), just get rid of the + 1 when you see endDay - startDay + 1.

Loop Through Each HTML Table Column and Get the Data using jQuery

Using a nested .each() means that your inner loop is doing one td at a time, so you can't set the productId and product and quantity all in the inner loop.

Also using function(key, val) and then val[key].innerHTML isn't right: the .each() method passes the index (an integer) and the actual element, so you'd use function(i, element) and then element.innerHTML. Though jQuery also sets this to the element, so you can just say this.innerHTML.

Anyway, here's a way to get it to work:

    table.find('tr').each(function (i, el) {
        var $tds = $(this).find('td'),
            productId = $tds.eq(0).text(),
            product = $tds.eq(1).text(),
            Quantity = $tds.eq(2).text();
        // do something with productId, product, Quantity
    });

Create a mocked list by mockito

We can mock list properly for foreach loop. Please find below code snippet and explanation.

This is my actual class method where I want to create test case by mocking list. this.nameList is a list object.

public void setOptions(){
    // ....
    for (String str : this.nameList) {
        str = "-"+str;
    }
    // ....
}

The foreach loop internally works on iterator, so here we crated mock of iterator. Mockito framework has facility to return pair of values on particular method call by using Mockito.when().thenReturn(), i.e. on hasNext() we pass 1st true and on second call false, so that our loop will continue only two times. On next() we just return actual return value.

@Test
public void testSetOptions(){
    // ...
    Iterator<SampleFilter> itr = Mockito.mock(Iterator.class);
    Mockito.when(itr.hasNext()).thenReturn(true, false);
    Mockito.when(itr.next()).thenReturn(Mockito.any(String.class);  

    List mockNameList = Mockito.mock(List.class);
    Mockito.when(mockNameList.iterator()).thenReturn(itr);
    // ...
}

In this way we can avoid sending actual list to test by using mock of list.

Lambda expression can be passed as a argument.To pass a lambda expression as an argument the type of the parameter (which receives the lambda expression as an argument) must be of functional interface type.

If there is a functional interface -

interface IMyFunc {
   boolean test(int num);
}

And there is a filter method which adds the int in the list only if it is greater than 5. Note here that filter method has funtional interface IMyFunc as one of the parameter. In that case lambda expression can be passed as an argument for the method parameter.

public class LambdaDemo {
    public static List<Integer> filter(IMyFunc testNum, List<Integer> listItems) {
        List<Integer> result = new ArrayList<Integer>();
        for(Integer item: listItems) {
            if(testNum.test(item)) {
                result.add(item);
            }
        }
        return result;
    }
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        List<Integer> myList = new ArrayList<Integer>();
        myList.add(1);
        myList.add(4);
        myList.add(6);
        myList.add(7);
        // calling filter method with a lambda expression
        // as one of the param
        Collection<Integer> values = filter(n -> n > 5, myList);

        System.out.println("Filtered values " + values);
    }
}

Adding a user on .htpasswd

FWIW, htpasswd -n username will output the result directly to stdout, and avoid touching files altogether.

jQuery how to find an element based on a data-attribute value?

I have faced the same issue while fetching elements using jQuery and data-* attribute.

so for your reference the shortest code is here:

This is my HTML Code:

<section data-js="carousel"></section>
<section></section>
<section></section>
<section data-js="carousel"></section>

This is my jQuery selector:

$('section[data-js="carousel"]');
// this will return array of the section elements which has data-js="carousel" attribute.

How to use OpenSSL to encrypt/decrypt files?

Encypt:

openssl enc -aes-256-cbc -a -salt -in {raw data} -out {encrypted data} -pass file:{random key}

Decrypt:

openssl enc -d -aes-256-cbc -in {ciphered data} -out {raw data}

What is a difference between unsigned int and signed int in C?

The C standard specifies that unsigned numbers will be stored in binary. (With optional padding bits). Signed numbers can be stored in one of three formats: Magnitude and sign; two's complement or one's complement. Interestingly that rules out certain other representations like Excess-n or Base -2.

However on most machines and compilers store signed numbers in 2's complement.

int is normally 16 or 32 bits. The standard says that int should be whatever is most efficient for the underlying processor, as long as it is >= short and <= long then it is allowed by the standard.

On some machines and OSs history has causes int not to be the best size for the current iteration of hardware however.

Xcode Product -> Archive disabled

In addition to the generic device (or "Any iOS Device" in newer versions of Xcode) mentioned in the other answers, it is possible that the "Archive" action is not selected for the current target in the scheme.

To view and edit at the current scheme, select Product > Schemes > Edit Scheme... (Cmd+<), then make sure that the "Archive" action is checked in the line corresponding to the desired target.

In the image below, Archive is not checked and the Archive action is greyed out in the Product menu. Checking the indicated checkbox fixed the issue for me.

How do I load a file into the python console?

For Python 2 give execfile a try. (See other answers for Python 3)

execfile('file.py')

Example usage:
Let's use "copy con" to quickly create a small script file...

C:\junk>copy con execfile_example.py
a = [9, 42, 888]
b = len(a)
^Z
        1 file(s) copied.

...and then let's load this script like so:

C:\junk>\python27\python
Python 2.7.1 (r271:86832, Nov 27 2010, 18:30:46) [MSC v.1500 32 bit (Intel)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> execfile('execfile_example.py')
>>> a
[9, 42, 888]
>>> b
3
>>>

What's the difference between identifying and non-identifying relationships?

An Identifying relationship specifies that a child object cannot exist without the parent object

Non-identifying relationships specifies a regular association between objects, 1:1 or 1:n cardinality.

Non-identifying relationships can be specified as optional where a parent is not required or mandatory where a parent is required by setting the parent table cardinality...

Byte Array and Int conversion in Java

You're swapping endianness between your two methods. You have intToByteArray(int a) assigning the low-order bits into ret[0], but then byteArrayToInt(byte[] b) assigns b[0] to the high-order bits of the result. You need to invert one or the other, like:

public static byte[] intToByteArray(int a)
{
    byte[] ret = new byte[4];
    ret[3] = (byte) (a & 0xFF);   
    ret[2] = (byte) ((a >> 8) & 0xFF);   
    ret[1] = (byte) ((a >> 16) & 0xFF);   
    ret[0] = (byte) ((a >> 24) & 0xFF);
    return ret;
}

Delete last char of string

Additional to sll's solution: It's better to trim the string in case there are some blank(s) at the end.

strgroupids = strgroupids.Remove(strgroupids.Trim().Length - 1);

How to URL encode in Python 3?

For Python 3 you could try using quote instead of quote_plus:

import urllib.parse

print(urllib.parse.quote("http://www.sample.com/"))

Result:

http%3A%2F%2Fwww.sample.com%2F

Or:

from requests.utils import requote_uri
requote_uri("http://www.sample.com/?id=123 abc")

Result:

'https://www.sample.com/?id=123%20abc'

to remove first and last element in array

push() adds a new element to the end of an array.
pop() removes an element from the end of an array.

unshift() adds a new element to the beginning of an array.
shift() removes an element from the beginning of an array.

To remove first element from an array arr , use arr.shift()
To remove last element from an array arr , use arr.pop()
