How to change button color with tkinter

When you do self.button = Button(...).grid(...), what gets assigned to self.button is the result of the grid() command, not a reference to the Button object created.

You need to assign your self.button variable before packing/griding it. It should look something like this:

self.button = Button(self,text="Click Me",command=self.color_change,bg="blue")
self.button.grid(row = 2, column = 2, sticky = W)

HTML input file selection event not firing upon selecting the same file

In this article, under the title "Using form input for selecting"

http://www.html5rocks.com/en/tutorials/file/dndfiles/

<input type="file" id="files" name="files[]" multiple />

<script>
function handleFileSelect(evt) {

    var files = evt.target.files; // FileList object

    // files is a FileList of File objects. List some properties.
    var output = [];
    for (var i = 0, f; f = files[i]; i++) {
     // Code to execute for every file selected
    }
    // Code to execute after that

}

document.getElementById('files').addEventListener('change', 
                                                  handleFileSelect, 
                                                  false);
</script>

It adds an event listener to 'change', but I tested it and it triggers even if you choose the same file and not if you cancel.

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

just check if any unnecessary Jars are added in your library or not. if yes, then simply remove that jars from your library and clean your project once. Its worked for me.

Does Eclipse have line-wrap

The Eclipse Word-Wrap plugin works for any type of file for me.

Datatable vs Dataset

A DataTable object represents tabular data as an in-memory, tabular cache of rows, columns, and constraints. The DataSet consists of a collection of DataTable objects that you can relate to each other with DataRelation objects.

Hibernate: hbm2ddl.auto=update in production?

I would vote no. Hibernate doesn't seem to understand when datatypes for columns have changed. Examples (using MySQL):

String with @Column(length=50)  ==> varchar(50)
changed to
String with @Column(length=100) ==> still varchar(50), not changed to varchar(100)

@Temporal(TemporalType.TIMESTAMP,TIME,DATE) will not update the DB columns if changed

There are probably other examples as well, such as pushing the length of a String column up over 255 and seeing it convert to text, mediumtext, etc etc.

Granted, I don't think there is really a way to "convert datatypes" with without creating a new column, copying the data and blowing away the old column. But the minute your database has columns which don't reflect the current Hibernate mapping you are living very dangerously...

Flyway is a good option to deal with this problem:

Batchfile to create backup and rename with timestamp

Yes, to make it run in the background create a shortcut to the batch file and go into the properties. I'm on a Linux machine ATM but I believe the option you are wanting is in the advanced tab.

You can also run your batch script through a vbs script like this:

'HideBat.vbs
CreateObject("Wscript.Shell").Run "your_batch_file.bat", 0, True

This will execute your batch file with no cmd window shown.

Collectors.toMap() keyMapper -- more succinct expression?

You can use a lambda:

Collectors.toMap(p -> p.getLast(), Function.identity())

or, more concisely, you can use a method reference using :::

Collectors.toMap(Person::getLast, Function.identity())

and instead of Function.identity, you can simply use the equivalent lambda:

Collectors.toMap(Person::getLast, p -> p)

If you use Netbeans you should get hints whenever an anonymous class can be replaced by a lambda.

What is logits, softmax and softmax_cross_entropy_with_logits?

Tensorflow 2.0 Compatible Answer: The explanations of dga and stackoverflowuser2010 are very detailed about Logits and the related Functions.

All those functions, when used in Tensorflow 1.x will work fine, but if you migrate your code from 1.x (1.14, 1.15, etc) to 2.x (2.0, 2.1, etc..), using those functions result in error.

Hence, specifying the 2.0 Compatible Calls for all the functions, we discussed above, if we migrate from 1.x to 2.x, for the benefit of the community.

Functions in 1.x:

  1. tf.nn.softmax
  2. tf.nn.softmax_cross_entropy_with_logits
  3. tf.nn.sparse_softmax_cross_entropy_with_logits

Respective Functions when Migrated from 1.x to 2.x:

  1. tf.compat.v2.nn.softmax
  2. tf.compat.v2.nn.softmax_cross_entropy_with_logits
  3. tf.compat.v2.nn.sparse_softmax_cross_entropy_with_logits

For more information about migration from 1.x to 2.x, please refer this Migration Guide.

Do AJAX requests retain PHP Session info?

One thing to watch out for though, particularly if you are using a framework, is to check if the application is regenerating session ids between requests - anything that depends explicitly on the session id will run into problems, although obviously the rest of the data in the session will unaffected.

If the application is regenerating session ids like this then you can end up with a situation where an ajax request in effect invalidates / replaces the session id in the requesting page.

How to add an event after close the modal window?

I find answer. Thanks all but right answer next:

$("#myModal").on("hidden", function () {
  $('#result').html('yes,result');
});

Events here http://bootstrap-ru.com/javascript.php#modals

UPD

For Bootstrap 3.x need use hidden.bs.modal:

$("#myModal").on("hidden.bs.modal", function () {
  $('#result').html('yes,result');
});

How to get column values in one comma separated value

You tagged the question with both sql-server and plsql so I will provide answers for both SQL Server and Oracle.

In SQL Server you can use FOR XML PATH to concatenate multiple rows together:

select distinct t.[user],
  STUFF((SELECT distinct ', ' + t1.department
         from yourtable t1
         where t.[user] = t1.[user]
            FOR XML PATH(''), TYPE
            ).value('.', 'NVARCHAR(MAX)') 
        ,1,2,'') department
from yourtable t;

See SQL Fiddle with Demo.

In Oracle 11g+ you can use LISTAGG:

select "User",
  listagg(department, ',') within group (order by "User") as departments
from yourtable
group by "User"

See SQL Fiddle with Demo

Prior to Oracle 11g, you could use the wm_concat function:

select "User",
  wm_concat(department) departments
from yourtable
group by "User"

How to set the font style to bold, italic and underlined in an Android TextView?

It gives you a list of n empty dictionaries.

Submit a form using jQuery

this will send a form with preloader :

var a=$('#yourform').serialize();
$.ajax({
    type:'post',
    url:'receiver url',
    data:a,

        launchpreloader();
    },
    complete:function(){
        stopPreloader();
    },
    success:function(result){
         alert(result);
    }
});

How to redirect Valgrind's output to a file?

By default, Valgrind writes its output to stderr. So you need to do something like:

valgrind a.out > log.txt 2>&1

Alternatively, you can tell Valgrind to write somewhere else; see http://valgrind.org/docs/manual/manual-core.html#manual-core.comment (but I've never tried this).

How to add google-services.json in Android?

google-services.json file work like API keys means it store your project_id and api key with json format for all google services(Which enable by you at google console) so no need manage all at different places.

Important process when uses google-services.json

at application gradle you should add

apply plugin: 'com.google.gms.google-services'.

at top level gradle you should add below dependency

  dependencies {
        // Add this line
        classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:3.0.0'
        // NOTE: Do not place your application dependencies here; they belong
        // in the individual module build.gradle files
    }

how to get file path from sd card in android

As some people indicated, the officially accepted answer does not quite return the external removable SD card. And i ran upon the following thread that proposes a method I've tested on some Android devices and seems to work reliably, so i thought of re-sharing here as i don't see it in the other responses:

http://forums.androidcentral.com/samsung-galaxy-s7/668364-whats-external-sdcard-path.html

Kudos to paresh996 for coming up with the answer itself, and i can attest I've tried on Samsung S7 and S7edge and seems to work.

Now, i needed a method that returned a valid path where to read files, and that considered the fact that there might not be an external SD, in which case the internal storage should be returned, so i modified the code from paresh996 to this :

File getStoragePath() {
    String removableStoragePath;
    File fileList[] = new File("/storage/").listFiles();
    for (File file : fileList) {
       if(!file.getAbsolutePath().equalsIgnoreCase(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getAbsolutePath()) && file.isDirectory() && file.canRead()) {
            return file;
        }
    }
    return Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory();
}

How do I start my app on startup?

Listen for the ACTION_BOOT_COMPLETE and do what you need to from there. There is a code snippet here.

Update:

Original link on answer is down, so based on the comments, here it is linked code, because no one would ever miss the code when the links are down.

                Intent i = new Intent(context, MyActivity.class);  //MyActivity can be anything which you want to start on bootup...
                i.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);

How to get the IP address of the docker host from inside a docker container

AFAIK, in the case of Docker for Linux (standard distribution), the IP address of the host will always be 172.17.0.1 (on the main network of docker, see comments to learn more).

The easiest way to get it is via ifconfig (interface docker0) from the host:

ifconfig

From inside a docker, the following command from a docker: ip -4 route show default | cut -d" " -f3

You can run it quickly in a docker with the following command line:

# 1. Run an ubuntu docker
# 2. Updates dependencies (quietly)
# 3. Install ip package   (quietly)
# 4. Shows (nicely) the ip of the host
# 5. Removes the docker (thanks to `--rm` arg)
docker run -it --rm ubuntu:20.10 bash -c "apt-get update > /dev/null && apt-get install iproute2 -y > /dev/null && ip -4 route show default | cut -d' ' -f3"

Uri content://media/external/file doesn't exist for some devices

Most probably it has to do with caching on the device. Catching the exception and ignoring is not nice but my problem was fixed and it seems to work.

null vs empty string in Oracle

This is because Oracle internally changes empty string to NULL values. Oracle simply won't let insert an empty string.

On the other hand, SQL Server would let you do what you are trying to achieve.

There are 2 workarounds here:

  1. Use another column that states whether the 'description' field is valid or not
  2. Use some dummy value for the 'description' field where you want it to store empty string. (i.e. set the field to be 'stackoverflowrocks' assuming your real data will never encounter such a description value)

Both are, of course, stupid workarounds :)

Command-line Git on Windows

I had the same issue and resolved it by adding the /bin directory location to the PATH Environment Variable.

  1. Search for the file location where Git was installed, mine is C:\Users\(My UserName)\AppData\Local\GitHub. It may also be C:\Program Files (x86)\Git

  2. Once you have the location of Git you should see a /bin sub-folder. It may be in a PortableGit folder (mine is PortableGit_015aa71ef18c047ce8509ffb2f9e4bb0e3e73f13). Copy this path.

  3. Go to Control Panel > System > System Protection > Advanced > Environment Variables

  4. Choose PATH, click edit and paste the bin path there. If there are already any values in your PATH paste your Git path at the end separated with a semi-colon.

Now you can access Git command from CMD.

Is it possible to have a HTML SELECT/OPTION value as NULL using PHP?

Yes, it is possible. You have to do something like this:

if(isset($_POST['submit']))
{
  $type_id = ($_POST['type_id'] == '' ? "null" : "'".$_POST['type_id']."'");
  $sql = "INSERT INTO `table` (`type_id`) VALUES (".$type_id.")";
}

It checks if the $_POST['type_id'] variable has an empty value. If yes, it assign NULL as a string to it. If not, it assign the value with ' to it for the SQL notation

Windows.history.back() + location.reload() jquery

After struggling with this for a few days, it turns out that you can't do a window.location.reload() after a window.history.go(-2), because the code stops running after the window.history.go(-2). Also the html spec basically views a history.go(-2) to the the same as hitting the back button and should retrieve the page as it was instead of as it now may be. There was some talk of setting caching headers in the webserver to turn off caching but I did not want to do this.

The solution for me was to use session storage to set a flag in the browser with sessionStorage.setItem('refresh', 'true'); Then in the "theme" or the next page that needs to be refreshed do:

if (sessionStorage.getItem("refresh") == "true") { 
    sessionStorage.removeItem("refresh"); window.location.reload()
}

So basically tell it to reload in the sessionStorage then check for that at the top of the page that needs to be reloaded.

Hope this helps someone with this bit of frustration.

How to get the real path of Java application at runtime?

If you're talking about a web application, you should use the getRealPath from a ServletContext object.

Example:

public class MyServlet extends Servlet {
    public void doGet(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse resp) 
              throws ServletException, IOException{
         String webAppPath = getServletContext().getRealPath("/");
    }
}

Hope this helps.

Remove specific characters from a string in Javascript

Honestly I think this probably the most concise and least confusing, but maybe that is just me:

str = "F0123456";
str.replace("f0", "");

Dont even go the regular expression route and simply do a straight replace.

Contain an image within a div?

object-fit, behaves like background-size, solving the issue of scaling images up and down to fit.

The object-fit CSS property specifies how the contents of a replaced element should be fitted to the box established by its used height and width.

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/object-fit

snapshot of an image rendered with all the object-fit options

.cover img {
    width: 100%;
    height: 100%;
    object-fit: cover;
    overflow: hidden;
}

Browser Support

There's no IE support, and support in Edge begins at v16, only for img element: https://caniuse.com/#search=object-fit

The bfred-it/object-fit-images polyfill works very well for me in IE11, tested on Browserstack: demo.


Alternative without polyfill using an image in SVG

For Edge pre v16, and ie9, ie10, ie11:

You can crop and scale any image using CSS object-fit and object-position. However, these properties are only supported in the latest version of MS Edge as well as all other modern browsers.

If you need to crop and scale an image in Internet Explorer and provide support back to IE9, you can do that by wrapping the image in an <svg>, and using the viewBox and preserveAspectRatio attributes to do what object-fit and object-position do.

(The author explains the technique thoroughly, and duplicating the detail here would be impractical.)

If you can decode JWT, how are they secure?

You can go to jwt.io, paste your token and read the contents. This is jarring for a lot of people initially.

The short answer is that JWT doesn't concern itself with encryption. It cares about validation. That is to say, it can always get the answer for "Have the contents of this token been manipulated"? This means user manipulation of the JWT token is futile because the server will know and disregard the token. The server adds a signature based on the payload when issuing a token to the client. Later on it verifies the payload and matching signature.

The logical question is what is the motivation for not concerning itself with encrypted contents?

  1. The simplest reason is because it assumes this is a solved problem for the most part. If dealing with a client like the web browser for example, you can store the JWT tokens in a cookie that is secure (is not transmitted via HTTP, only via HTTPS) and httpOnly (can't be read by Javascript) and talks to the server over an encrypted channel (HTTPS). Once you know you have a secure channel between the server and client you can securely exchange JWT or whatever else you want.

  2. This keeps thing simple. A simple implementation makes adoption easier but it also lets each layer do what it does best (let HTTPS handle encryption).

  3. JWT isn't meant to store sensitive data. Once the server receives the JWT token and validates it, it is free to lookup the user ID in its own database for additional information for that user (like permissions, postal address, etc). This keeps JWT small in size and avoids inadvertent information leakage because everyone knows not to keep sensitive data in JWT.

It's not too different from how cookies themselves work. Cookies often contain unencrypted payloads. If you are using HTTPS then everything is good. If you aren't then it's advisable to encrypt sensitive cookies themselves. Not doing so will mean that a man-in-the-middle attack is possible--a proxy server or ISP reads the cookies and then replays them later on pretending to be you. For similar reasons, JWT should always be exchanged over a secure layer like HTTPS.

Incorrect integer value: '' for column 'id' at row 1

This is because your data sending column type is integer and your are sending a string value to it.

So, the following way worked for me. Try with this one.

$insertQuery = "INSERT INTO workorders VALUES (
                    null,
                    '$priority',
                    '$requestType',
                    '$purchaseOrder',
                    '$nte',
                    '$jobSiteNumber'
                )";

Don't use 'null'. use it as null without single quotes.

PHP reindex array?

array_values does the job :

$myArray  = array_values($myArray);

Also some other php function do not preserve the keys, i.e. reset the index.

Why can't I push to this bare repository?

This related question's answer provided the solution for me... it was just a dumb mistake:

Remember to commit first!

https://stackoverflow.com/a/7572252

If you have not yet committed to your local repo, there is nothing to push, but the Git error message you get back doesn't help you too much.

Git "error: The branch 'x' is not fully merged"

Git is warning that you might lose history by deleting this branch. Even though it would not actually delete any commits right away, some or all of the commits on the branch would become unreachable if they are not part of some other branch as well.

For the branch experiment to be “fully merged” into another branch, its tip commit must be an ancestor of the other branch’s tip, making the commits in experiment a subset of the other branch. This makes it safe to delete experiment, since all its commits will remain part of the repository history via the other branch. It must be “fully” merged, because it may have been merged several times already, but now have commits added since the last merge that are not contained in the other branch.

Git doesn’t check every other branch in the repository, though; just two:

  1. The current branch (HEAD)
  2. The upstream branch, if there is one

The “upstream branch” for experiment, as in your case, is probably origin/experiment. If experiment is fully merged in the current branch, then Git deletes it with no complaint. If it is not, but it is fully merged in its upstream branch, then Git proceeds with a warning seeming like:

warning: deleting branch 'experiment' that has been merged
to 'refs/remotes/origin/experiment', but not yet merged to
HEAD.
Deleted branch experiment (was xxxxxxxx).

Where xxxxxxxx indicates a commit id. Being fully merged in its upstream indicates that the commits in experiment have been pushed to the origin repository, so that even if you lose them here, they may at least be saved elsewhere.

Since Git doesn’t check other branches, it may be safe to delete a branch because you know it is fully merged into another one; you can do this with the -D option as indicated, or switch to that branch first and let Git confirm the fully merged status for you.

Checkout multiple git repos into same Jenkins workspace

Since Multiple SCMs Plugin is deprecated.

With Jenkins Pipeline its possible to checkout multiple git repos and after building it using gradle

node {   
def gradleHome

stage('Prepare/Checkout') { // for display purposes
    git branch: 'develop', url: 'https://github.com/WtfJoke/Any.git'

    dir('a-child-repo') {
       git branch: 'develop', url: 'https://github.com/WtfJoke/AnyChild.git'
    }

    env.JAVA_HOME="${tool 'JDK8'}"
    env.PATH="${env.JAVA_HOME}/bin:${env.PATH}" // set java home in jdk environment
    gradleHome = tool '3.4.1' 
}

stage('Build') {
  // Run the gradle build
  if (isUnix()) {
     sh "'${gradleHome}/bin/gradle' clean build"
  } else {
     bat(/"${gradleHome}\bin\gradle" clean build/)
  }
}
}

You might want to consider using git submodules instead of a custom pipeline like this.

How to add a filter class in Spring Boot?

Filters are mostly used in logger files it varies according to the logger you using in the project Lemme explain for log4j2:

<Filters>
                <!-- It prevents error -->
                <ThresholdFilter level="error" onMatch="DENY" onMismatch="NEUTRAL"/>
                <!-- It prevents debug -->
                <ThresholdFilter level="debug" onMatch="DENY" onMismatch="NEUTRAL" />
                <!-- It allows all levels except debug/trace -->
                <ThresholdFilter level="info" onMatch="ACCEPT" onMismatch="DENY" /> 
            </Filters>

Filters are used to restrict the data and i used threshold filter further to restrict the levels of data in the flow I mentioned the levels that can be restricted over there. For your further refrence see the level order of log4j2 - Log4J Levels: ALL > TRACE > DEBUG > INFO > WARN > ERROR > FATAL > OFF

How to create Password Field in Model Django

You should create a ModelForm (docs), which has a field that uses the PasswordInput widget from the forms library.

It would look like this:

models.py

from django import models
class User(models.Model):
    username = models.CharField(max_length=100)
    password = models.CharField(max_length=50)

forms.py (not views.py)

from django import forms
class UserForm(forms.ModelForm):
    class Meta:
        model = User
        widgets = {
        'password': forms.PasswordInput(),
    }

For more about using forms in a view, see this section of the docs.

MySQL COUNT DISTINCT

Overall

SELECT
       COUNT(DISTINCT `site_id`) as distinct_sites
  FROM `cp_visits`
 WHERE ts >= DATE_SUB(NOW(), INTERVAL 1 DAY)

Or per site

  SELECT
         `site_id` as site,
         COUNT(DISTINCT `user_id`) as distinct_users_per_site
    FROM `cp_visits`
   WHERE ts >= DATE_SUB(NOW(), INTERVAL 1 DAY)
GROUP BY `site_id`

Having the time column in the result doesn't make sense - since you are aggregating the rows, showing one particular time is irrelevant, unless it is the min or max you are after.

How can I echo a newline in a batch file?

This solution works(Tested):

type nul | more /e /p

This converts isolated line feeds to carriage return line feed combination.

./xx.py: line 1: import: command not found

If you run a script directly e.g., ./xx.py and your script has no shebang such as #!/usr/bin/env python at the very top then your shell may execute it as a shell script. POSIX says:

If the execl() function fails due to an error equivalent to the [ENOEXEC] error defined in the System Interfaces volume of POSIX.1-2008, the shell shall execute a command equivalent to having a shell invoked with the pathname resulting from the search as its first operand, with any remaining arguments passed to the new shell, except that the value of "$0" in the new shell may be set to the command name. If the executable file is not a text file, the shell may bypass this command execution. In this case, it shall write an error message, and shall return an exit status of 126.

Note: you may get ENOEXEC if your text file has no shebang.

Without the shebang, you shell tries to run your Python script as a shell script that leads to the error: import: command not found.

Also, if you run your script as python xx.py then you do not need the shebang. You don't even need it to be executable (+x). Your script is interpreted by python in this case.

On Windows, shebang is not used unless pylauncher is installed. It is included in Python 3.3+.

NPM doesn't install module dependencies

I had the same problem. But on the same machine one project had good package.json, where all my dependencies are successfully installed. And in another project my package.json dependencies were not installed no matter what i do. I just copied the package.json and pasted into that another project. And it worked! The difference i have found was only empty line at the start of file. Dont know or it influences anything, maybe some other problem. But the problem was only the package.json file.

connecting to mysql server on another PC in LAN

Connecting to any mysql database should be like this:

$mysql -h hostname -Pportnumber -u username -p (then enter)

Then it will ask for password. Note: Port number should be closer to -P or it will show error. Make sure you know what is your mysql port. Default is 3306 and is optional to specify the port in this case. If its anything else you need to mention port number with -P or else it will show error.

For example: $mysql -h 10.20.40.5 -P3306 -u root -p (then enter)

Password:My_Db_Password

Gubrish about product you using.

mysql>_

Note: If you are trying to connect a db at different location make sure you can ping to that server/computer.

$ping 10.20.40.5

It should return TTL with time you got back PONG. If it says destination unreachable then you cannot connect to remote mysql no matter what.

In such case contact your Network Administrator or Check your cable connection to your computer till the end of your target computer. Or check if you got LAN/WAN/MAN or internet/intranet/extranet working.

how to reference a YAML "setting" from elsewhere in the same YAML file?

That your example is invalid is only because you chose a reserved character to start your scalars with. If you replace the * with some other non-reserved character (I tend to use non-ASCII characters for that as they are seldom used as part of some specification), you end up with perfectly legal YAML:

paths:
  root: /path/to/root/
  patha: ?root? + a
  pathb: ?root? + b
  pathc: ?root? + c

This will load into the standard representation for mappings in the language your parser uses and does not magically expand anything.
To do that use a locally default object type as in the following Python program:

# coding: utf-8

from __future__ import print_function

import ruamel.yaml as yaml

class Paths:
    def __init__(self):
        self.d = {}

    def __repr__(self):
        return repr(self.d).replace('ordereddict', 'Paths')

    @staticmethod
    def __yaml_in__(loader, data):
        result = Paths()
        loader.construct_mapping(data, result.d)
        return result

    @staticmethod
    def __yaml_out__(dumper, self):
        return dumper.represent_mapping('!Paths', self.d)

    def __getitem__(self, key):
        res = self.d[key]
        return self.expand(res)

    def expand(self, res):
        try:
            before, rest = res.split(u'?', 1)
            kw, rest = rest.split(u'? +', 1)
            rest = rest.lstrip() # strip any spaces after "+"
            # the lookup will throw the correct keyerror if kw is not found
            # recursive call expand() on the tail if there are multiple
            # parts to replace
            return before + self.d[kw] + self.expand(rest)
        except ValueError:
            return res

yaml_str = """\
paths: !Paths
  root: /path/to/root/
  patha: ?root? + a
  pathb: ?root? + b
  pathc: ?root? + c
"""

loader = yaml.RoundTripLoader
loader.add_constructor('!Paths', Paths.__yaml_in__)

paths = yaml.load(yaml_str, Loader=yaml.RoundTripLoader)['paths']

for k in ['root', 'pathc']:
    print(u'{} -> {}'.format(k, paths[k]))

which will print:

root -> /path/to/root/
pathc -> /path/to/root/c

The expanding is done on the fly and handles nested definitions, but you have to be careful about not invoking infinite recursion.

By specifying the dumper, you can dump the original YAML from the data loaded in, because of the on-the-fly expansion:

dumper = yaml.RoundTripDumper
dumper.add_representer(Paths, Paths.__yaml_out__)
print(yaml.dump(paths, Dumper=dumper, allow_unicode=True))

this will change the mapping key ordering. If that is a problem you have to make self.d a CommentedMap (imported from ruamel.yaml.comments.py)

Linux delete file with size 0

You can use the command find to do this. We can match files with -type f, and match empty files using -size 0. Then we can delete the matches with -delete.

find . -type f -size 0 -delete

Image overlay on responsive sized images bootstrap

If i understand your question you want to have the overlay just over the image and not cover everything?

I'd set the parent DIV (i renamed in content in the jsfiddle) position to relative, as the overlay should be positioned relative to this div not the window.

.content
{
  position: relative;
}

I did some pocking around and updated your fiddle to just have the overlay sized to the img which (I think) is what you want, let me know anyway :) http://jsfiddle.net/b9Vyw/

PHP string "contains"

You can use these string functions,

strstr — Find the first occurrence of a string

stristr — Case-insensitive strstr()

strrchr — Find the last occurrence of a character in a string

strpos — Find the position of the first occurrence of a substring in a string

strpbrk — Search a string for any of a set of characters

If that doesn't help then you should use preg regular expression

preg_match — Perform a regular expression match

Best way to replace multiple characters in a string?

For Python 3.8 and above, one can use assignment expressions

(text := text.replace(s, f"\\{i}") for s in "&#" if s in text)

Although, I am quite unsure if this would be considered "appropriate use" of assignment expressions as described in PEP 572, but looks clean and reads quite well (to my eyes). This would be "appropriate" if you wanted all intermediate strings as well. For example, (removing all lowercase vowels):

text = "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet"
intermediates = [text := text.replace(i, "") for i in "aeiou" if i in text]

['Lorem ipsum dolor sit met',
 'Lorm ipsum dolor sit mt',
 'Lorm psum dolor st mt',
 'Lrm psum dlr st mt',
 'Lrm psm dlr st mt']

On the plus side, it does seem (unexpectedly?) faster than some of the faster methods in the accepted answer, and seems to perform nicely with both increasing strings length and an increasing number of substitutions.

Comparison

The code for the above comparison is below. I am using random strings to make my life a bit simpler, and the characters to replace are chosen randomly from the string itself. (Note: I am using ipython's %timeit magic here, so run this in ipython/jupyter).

import random, string

def make_txt(length):
    "makes a random string of a given length"
    return "".join(random.choices(string.printable, k=length))

def get_substring(s, num):
    "gets a substring"
    return "".join(random.choices(s, k=num))

def a(text, replace): # one of the better performing approaches from the accepted answer
    for i in replace:
        if i in text:
             text = text.replace(i, "")

def b(text, replace):
    _ = (text := text.replace(i, "") for i in replace if i in text) 


def compare(strlen, replace_length):
    "use ipython / jupyter for the %timeit functionality"

    times_a, times_b = [], []

    for i in range(*strlen):
        el = make_txt(i)
        et = get_substring(el, replace_length)

        res_a = %timeit -n 1000 -o a(el, et) # ipython magic

        el = make_txt(i)
        et = get_substring(el, replace_length)
        
        res_b = %timeit -n 1000 -o b(el, et) # ipython magic

        times_a.append(res_a.average * 1e6)
        times_b.append(res_b.average * 1e6)
        
    return times_a, times_b

#----run
t2 = compare((2*2, 1000, 50), 2)
t10 = compare((2*10, 1000, 50), 10)

NULL values inside NOT IN clause

SQL uses three-valued logic for truth values. The IN query produces the expected result:

SELECT * FROM (VALUES (1), (2)) AS tbl(col) WHERE col IN (NULL, 1)
-- returns first row

But adding a NOT does not invert the results:

SELECT * FROM (VALUES (1), (2)) AS tbl(col) WHERE NOT col IN (NULL, 1)
-- returns zero rows

This is because the above query is equivalent of the following:

SELECT * FROM (VALUES (1), (2)) AS tbl(col) WHERE NOT (col = NULL OR col = 1)

Here is how the where clause is evaluated:

| col | col = NULL?¹?  | col = 1 | col = NULL OR col = 1 | NOT (col = NULL OR col = 1) |
|-----|----------------|---------|-----------------------|-----------------------------|
| 1   | UNKNOWN        | TRUE    | TRUE                  | FALSE                       |
| 2   | UNKNOWN        | FALSE   | UNKNOWN?²?            | UNKNOWN?³?                  |

Notice that:

  1. The comparison involving NULL yields UNKNOWN
  2. The OR expression where none of the operands are TRUE and at least one operand is UNKNOWN yields UNKNOWN (ref)
  3. The NOT of UNKNOWN yields UNKNOWN (ref)

You can extend the above example to more than two values (e.g. NULL, 1 and 2) but the result will be same: if one of the values is NULL then no row will match.

Convert float to string with precision & number of decimal digits specified?

The customary method for doing this sort of thing is to "print to string". In C++ that means using std::stringstream something like:

std::stringstream ss;
ss << std::fixed << std::setprecision(2) << number;
std::string mystring = ss.str();

How to get a Static property with Reflection

The below seems to work for me.

using System;
using System.Reflection;

public class ReflectStatic
{
    private static int SomeNumber {get; set;}
    public static object SomeReference {get; set;}
    static ReflectStatic()
    {
        SomeReference = new object();
        Console.WriteLine(SomeReference.GetHashCode());
    }
}

public class Program
{
    public static void Main()
    {
        var rs = new ReflectStatic();
        var pi = rs.GetType().GetProperty("SomeReference",  BindingFlags.Static | BindingFlags.Public);
        if(pi == null) { Console.WriteLine("Null!"); Environment.Exit(0);}
        Console.WriteLine(pi.GetValue(rs, null).GetHashCode());


    }
}

Jquery ajax call click event submit button

You did not add # before id of the button. You do not have right selector in your jquery code. So jquery is never execute in your button click. its submitted your form directly not passing any ajax request.

See documentation: http://api.jquery.com/category/selectors/
its your friend.

Try this:

It seems that id: $("#Shareitem").val() is wrong if you want to pass the value of

<input type="hidden" name="id" value="" id="id">

you need to change this line:

id: $("#Shareitem").val()

by

id: $("#id").val()

All together:

 <script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.11.0.min.js"></script>
    <script>
    $(document).ready(function(){
      $("#Shareitem").click(function(e){
          e.preventDefault();
        $.ajax({type: "POST",
                url: "/imball-reagens/public/shareitem",
                data: { id: $("#Shareitem").val(), access_token: $("#access_token").val() },
                success:function(result){
          $("#sharelink").html(result);
        }});
      });
    });

PHP function to make slug (URL string)

Update

Since this answer is getting some attention, I'm adding some explanation.

The solution provided will essentially replace everything except A-Z, a-z, 0-9, & - (hyphen) with - (hyphen). So, it won't work properly with other unicode characters (which are valid characters for a URL slug/string). A common scenario is when the input string contains non-English characters.

Only use this solution if you're confident that the input string won't have unicode characters which you might want to be a part of output/slug.

Eg. "???? ?????" will become "----------" (all hyphens) instead of "????-?????" (valid URL slug).

Original Answer

How about...

$slug = strtolower(trim(preg_replace('/[^A-Za-z0-9-]+/', '-', $string)));

?

AngularJS : The correct way of binding to a service properties

Building on the examples above I thought I'd throw in a way of transparently binding a controller variable to a service variable.

In the example below changes to the Controller $scope.count variable will automatically be reflected in the Service count variable.

In production we're actually using the this binding to update an id on a service which then asynchronously fetches data and updates its service vars. Further binding that means that controllers automagically get updated when the service updates itself.

The code below can be seen working at http://jsfiddle.net/xuUHS/163/

View:

<div ng-controller="ServiceCtrl">
    <p> This is my countService variable : {{count}}</p>
    <input type="number" ng-model="count">
    <p> This is my updated after click variable : {{countS}}</p>

    <button ng-click="clickC()" >Controller ++ </button>
    <button ng-click="chkC()" >Check Controller Count</button>
    </br>

    <button ng-click="clickS()" >Service ++ </button>
    <button ng-click="chkS()" >Check Service Count</button>
</div>

Service/Controller:

var app = angular.module('myApp', []);

app.service('testService', function(){
    var count = 10;

    function incrementCount() {
      count++;
      return count;
    };

    function getCount() { return count; }

    return {
        get count() { return count },
        set count(val) {
            count = val;
        },
        getCount: getCount,
        incrementCount: incrementCount
    }

});

function ServiceCtrl($scope, testService)
{

    Object.defineProperty($scope, 'count', {
        get: function() { return testService.count; },
        set: function(val) { testService.count = val; },
    });

    $scope.clickC = function () {
       $scope.count++;
    };
    $scope.chkC = function () {
        alert($scope.count);
    };

    $scope.clickS = function () {
       ++testService.count;
    };
    $scope.chkS = function () {
        alert(testService.count);
    };

}

@UniqueConstraint and @Column(unique = true) in hibernate annotation

From the Java EE documentation:

public abstract boolean unique

(Optional) Whether the property is a unique key. This is a shortcut for the UniqueConstraint annotation at the table level and is useful for when the unique key constraint is only a single field. This constraint applies in addition to any constraint entailed by primary key mapping and to constraints specified at the table level.

Laravel Escaping All HTML in Blade Template

I had the same issue. Thanks for the answers above, I solved my issue. If there are people facing the same problem, here is two way to solve it:

  • You can use {!! $news->body !!}
  • You can use traditional php openning (It is not recommended) like: <?php echo $string ?>

I hope it helps.

Download and open PDF file using Ajax

What worked for me is the following code, as the server function is retrieving File(memoryStream.GetBuffer(), "application/pdf", "fileName.pdf");:

$http.get( fullUrl, { responseType: 'arraybuffer' })
            .success(function (response) {
                var blob = new Blob([response], { type: 'application/pdf' });

                if (window.navigator && window.navigator.msSaveOrOpenBlob) {
                    window.navigator.msSaveOrOpenBlob(blob); // for IE
                }
                else {
                    var fileURL = URL.createObjectURL(blob);
                    var newWin = window.open(fileURL);
                    newWin.focus();
                    newWin.reload();
                }
});

How do I open the "front camera" on the Android platform?

private Camera openFrontFacingCameraGingerbread() {
    int cameraCount = 0;
    Camera cam = null;
    Camera.CameraInfo cameraInfo = new Camera.CameraInfo();
    cameraCount = Camera.getNumberOfCameras();
    for (int camIdx = 0; camIdx < cameraCount; camIdx++) {
        Camera.getCameraInfo(camIdx, cameraInfo);

How to convert std::string to LPCWSTR in C++ (Unicode)

I prefer using standard converters:

#include <codecvt>

std::string s = "Hi";
std::wstring_convert<std::codecvt_utf8_utf16<wchar_t>> converter;
std::wstring wide = converter.from_bytes(s);
LPCWSTR result = wide.c_str();

Please find more details in this answer: https://stackoverflow.com/a/18597384/592651


Update 12/21/2020 : My answer was commented on by @Andreas H . I thought his comment is valuable, so I updated my answer accordingly:

  1. codecvt_utf8_utf16 is deprecated in C++17.
  2. Also the code implies that source encoding is UTF-8 which it usually isn't.
  3. In C++20 there is a separate type std::u8string for UTF-8 because of that.

But it worked for me because I am still using an old version of C++ and it happened that my source encoding was UTF-8 .

PowerShell script to return members of multiple security groups

Get-ADGroupMember "Group1" -recursive | Select-Object Name | Export-Csv c:\path\Groups.csv

I got this to work for me... I would assume that you could put "Group1, Group2, etc." or try a wildcard. I did pre-load AD into PowerShell before hand:

Get-Module -ListAvailable | Import-Module

Checking length of dictionary object

This question is confusing. A regular object, {} doesn't have a length property unless you're intending to make your own function constructor which generates custom objects which do have it ( in which case you didn't specify ).

Meaning, you have to get the "length" by a for..in statement on the object, since length is not set, and increment a counter.

I'm confused as to why you need the length. Are you manually setting 0 on the object, or are you relying on custom string keys? eg obj['foo'] = 'bar';. If the latter, again, why the need for length?

Edit #1: Why can't you just do this?

list = [ {name:'john'}, {name:'bob'} ];

Then iterate over list? The length is already set.

Assembly Language - How to do Modulo?

If you don't care too much about performance and want to use the straightforward way, you can use either DIV or IDIV.

DIV or IDIV takes only one operand where it divides a certain register with this operand, the operand can be register or memory location only.

When operand is a byte: AL = AL / operand, AH = remainder (modulus).

Ex:

MOV AL,31h ; Al = 31h

DIV BL ; Al (quotient)= 08h, Ah(remainder)= 01h

when operand is a word: AX = (AX) / operand, DX = remainder (modulus).

Ex:

MOV AX,9031h ; Ax = 9031h

DIV BX ; Ax=1808h & Dx(remainder)= 01h

What is the best way to call a script from another script?

import os

os.system("python myOtherScript.py arg1 arg2 arg3")  

Using os you can make calls directly to your terminal. If you want to be even more specific you can concatenate your input string with local variables, ie.

command = 'python myOtherScript.py ' + sys.argv[1] + ' ' + sys.argv[2]
os.system(command)

Wait until a process ends

I think you just want this:

var process = Process.Start(...);
process.WaitForExit();

See the MSDN page for the method. It also has an overload where you can specify the timeout, so you're not potentially waiting forever.

JavaScript object: access variable property by name as string

ThiefMaster's answer is 100% correct, although I came across a similar problem where I needed to fetch a property from a nested object (object within an object), so as an alternative to his answer, you can create a recursive solution that will allow you to define a nomenclature to grab any property, regardless of depth:

function fetchFromObject(obj, prop) {

    if(typeof obj === 'undefined') {
        return false;
    }

    var _index = prop.indexOf('.')
    if(_index > -1) {
        return fetchFromObject(obj[prop.substring(0, _index)], prop.substr(_index + 1));
    }

    return obj[prop];
}

Where your string reference to a given property ressembles property1.property2

How to unpackage and repackage a WAR file

copy your war file to /tmp now extract the contents:

cp warfile.war /tmp
cd /tmp
unzip warfile.war
cd WEB-INF
nano web.xml (or vim or any editor you want to use)
cd ..
zip -r -u warfile.war WEB-INF

now you have in /tmp/warfile.war your file updated.

Convert pandas.Series from dtype object to float, and errors to nans

Use pd.to_numeric with errors='coerce'

# Setup
s = pd.Series(['1', '2', '3', '4', '.'])
s

0    1
1    2
2    3
3    4
4    .
dtype: object

pd.to_numeric(s, errors='coerce')

0    1.0
1    2.0
2    3.0
3    4.0
4    NaN
dtype: float64

If you need the NaNs filled in, use Series.fillna.

pd.to_numeric(s, errors='coerce').fillna(0, downcast='infer')

0    1
1    2
2    3
3    4
4    0
dtype: float64

Note, downcast='infer' will attempt to downcast floats to integers where possible. Remove the argument if you don't want that.

From v0.24+, pandas introduces a Nullable Integer type, which allows integers to coexist with NaNs. If you have integers in your column, you can use

pd.__version__
# '0.24.1'

pd.to_numeric(s, errors='coerce').astype('Int32')

0      1
1      2
2      3
3      4
4    NaN
dtype: Int32

There are other options to choose from as well, read the docs for more.


Extension for DataFrames

If you need to extend this to DataFrames, you will need to apply it to each row. You can do this using DataFrame.apply.

# Setup.
np.random.seed(0)
df = pd.DataFrame({
    'A' : np.random.choice(10, 5), 
    'C' : np.random.choice(10, 5), 
    'B' : ['1', '###', '...', 50, '234'], 
    'D' : ['23', '1', '...', '268', '$$']}
)[list('ABCD')]
df

   A    B  C    D
0  5    1  9   23
1  0  ###  3    1
2  3  ...  5  ...
3  3   50  2  268
4  7  234  4   $$

df.dtypes

A     int64
B    object
C     int64
D    object
dtype: object

df2 = df.apply(pd.to_numeric, errors='coerce')
df2

   A      B  C      D
0  5    1.0  9   23.0
1  0    NaN  3    1.0
2  3    NaN  5    NaN
3  3   50.0  2  268.0
4  7  234.0  4    NaN

df2.dtypes

A      int64
B    float64
C      int64
D    float64
dtype: object

You can also do this with DataFrame.transform; although my tests indicate this is marginally slower:

df.transform(pd.to_numeric, errors='coerce')

   A      B  C      D
0  5    1.0  9   23.0
1  0    NaN  3    1.0
2  3    NaN  5    NaN
3  3   50.0  2  268.0
4  7  234.0  4    NaN

If you have many columns (numeric; non-numeric), you can make this a little more performant by applying pd.to_numeric on the non-numeric columns only.

df.dtypes.eq(object)

A    False
B     True
C    False
D     True
dtype: bool

cols = df.columns[df.dtypes.eq(object)]
# Actually, `cols` can be any list of columns you need to convert.
cols
# Index(['B', 'D'], dtype='object')

df[cols] = df[cols].apply(pd.to_numeric, errors='coerce')
# Alternatively,
# for c in cols:
#     df[c] = pd.to_numeric(df[c], errors='coerce')

df

   A      B  C      D
0  5    1.0  9   23.0
1  0    NaN  3    1.0
2  3    NaN  5    NaN
3  3   50.0  2  268.0
4  7  234.0  4    NaN

Applying pd.to_numeric along the columns (i.e., axis=0, the default) should be slightly faster for long DataFrames.

A weighted version of random.choice

If you have a weighted dictionary instead of a list you can write this

items = { "a": 10, "b": 5, "c": 1 } 
random.choice([k for k in items for dummy in range(items[k])])

Note that [k for k in items for dummy in range(items[k])] produces this list ['a', 'a', 'a', 'a', 'a', 'a', 'a', 'a', 'a', 'a', 'c', 'b', 'b', 'b', 'b', 'b']

Use Invoke-WebRequest with a username and password for basic authentication on the GitHub API

I know this is a little off the OPs original request but I came across this while looking for a way to use Invoke-WebRequest against a site requiring basic authentication.

The difference is, I did not want to record the password in the script. Instead, I wanted to prompt the script runner for credentials for the site.

Here's how I handled it

$creds = Get-Credential

$basicCreds = [pscredential]::new($Creds.UserName,$Creds.Password)

Invoke-WebRequest -Uri $URL -Credential $basicCreds

The result is the script runner is prompted with a login dialog for the U/P then, Invoke-WebRequest is able to access the site with those credentials. This works because $Creds.Password is already an encrypted string.

I hope this helps someone looking for a similar solution to the above question but without saving the username or PW in the script

Loop through a date range with JavaScript

Why won't bundler install JSON gem?

You should try

$ sudo gem install json -v '1.8.2'

in my case (Ubuntu 14.04) that didn't work directly and I had to do this:

$ sudo apt-get install ruby-dev

and then I could install the gem and continue. Had one more problem that was fixed by:

$ sudo apt-get install libsqlite3-dev

Hoping helps.

How to reset sequence in postgres and fill id column with new data?

Even the auto-increment column is not PK ( in this example it is called seq - aka sequence ) you could achieve that with a trigger :

DROP TABLE IF EXISTS devops_guide CASCADE;

SELECT 'create the "devops_guide" table'
;
   CREATE TABLE devops_guide (
      guid           UUID NOT NULL DEFAULT gen_random_uuid()
    , level          integer NULL
    , seq            integer NOT NULL DEFAULT 1
    , name           varchar (200) NOT NULL DEFAULT 'name ...'
    , description    text NULL
    , CONSTRAINT pk_devops_guide_guid PRIMARY KEY (guid)
    ) WITH (
      OIDS=FALSE
    );

-- START trg_devops_guide_set_all_seq
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION fnc_devops_guide_set_all_seq()
    RETURNS TRIGGER
    AS $$
       BEGIN
         UPDATE devops_guide SET seq=col_serial FROM
         (SELECT guid, row_number() OVER ( ORDER BY seq) AS col_serial FROM devops_guide ORDER BY seq) AS tmp_devops_guide
         WHERE devops_guide.guid=tmp_devops_guide.guid;

         RETURN NEW;
       END;
    $$ LANGUAGE plpgsql;

 CREATE TRIGGER trg_devops_guide_set_all_seq
  AFTER UPDATE OR DELETE ON devops_guide
  FOR EACH ROW
  WHEN (pg_trigger_depth() < 1)
  EXECUTE PROCEDURE fnc_devops_guide_set_all_seq();

Error in plot.window(...) : need finite 'xlim' values

This error appears when the column contains character, if you check the data type it would be of type 'chr' converting the column to 'Factor' would solve this issue.

For e.g. In case you plot 'City' against 'Sales', you have to convert column 'City' to type 'Factor'

Difference between Static and final?

Easy Difference,

Final : means that the Value of the variable is Final and it will not change anywhere. If you say that final x = 5 it means x can not be changed its value is final for everyone.

Static : means that it has only one object. lets suppose you have x = 5, in memory there is x = 5 and its present inside a class. if you create an object or instance of the class which means there a specific box that represents that class and its variables and methods. and if you create an other object or instance of that class it means there are two boxes of that same class which has different x inside them in the memory. and if you call both x in different positions and change their value then their value will be different. box 1 has x which has x =5 and box 2 has x = 6. but if you make the x static it means it can not be created again. you can create object of class but that object will not have different x in them. if x is static then box 1 and box 2 both will have the same x which has the value of 5. Yes i can change the value of static any where as its not final. so if i say box 1 has x and i change its value to x =5 and after that i make another box which is box2 and i change the value of box2 x to x=6. then as X is static both boxes has the same x. and both boxes will give the value of box as 6 because box2 overwrites the value of 5 to 6.

Both final and static are totally different. Final which is final can not be changed. static which will remain as one but can be changed.

"This is an example. remember static variable are always called by their class name. because they are only one for all of the objects of that class. so Class A has x =5, i can call and change it by A.x=6; "

How do I resolve git saying "Commit your changes or stash them before you can merge"?

Before using reset think about using revert so you can always go back.

git reset vs git revert   sonic0002        2019-02-02 08:26:39 

When maintaining code using version control systems such as git, it is unavoidable that we need to rollback some wrong commits either due to bugs or temp code revert. In this case, rookie developers would be very nervous because they may get lost on what they should do to rollback their changes without affecting others, but to veteran developers, this is their routine work and they can show you different ways of doing that. In this post, we will introduce two major ones used frequently by developers.

  • git reset
  • git revert

What are their differences and corresponding use cases? We will discuss them in detail below. git reset Assuming we have below few commits. enter image description here

Commit A and B are working commits, but commit C and D are bad commits. Now we want to rollback to commit B and drop commit C and D. Currently HEAD is pointing to commit D 5lk4er, we just need to point HEAD to commit B a0fvf8 to achieve what we want.  It's easy to use git reset command.

git reset --hard a0fvf8

After executing above command, the HEAD will point to commit B. enter image description here

But now the remote origin still has HEAD point to commit D, if we directly use git push to push the changes, it will not update the remote repo, we need to add a -f option to force pushing the changes.

git push -f

The drawback of this method is that all the commits after HEAD will be gone once the reset is done. In case one day we found that some of the commits ate good ones and want to keep them, it is too late. Because of this, many companies forbid to use this method to rollback changes.

git revert The use of git revert is to create a new commit which reverts a previous commit. The HEAD will point to the new reverting commit.  For the example of git reset above, what we need to do is just reverting commit D and then reverting commit C. 

git revert 5lk4er
git revert 76sdeb

Now it creates two new commit D' and C',  enter image description here

In above example, we have only two commits to revert, so we can revert one by one. But what if there are lots of commits to revert? We can revert a range indeed.

git revert OLDER_COMMIT^..NEWER_COMMIT

This method would not have the disadvantage of git reset, it would point HEAD to newly created reverting commit and it is ok to directly push the changes to remote without using the -f option. Now let's take a look at a more difficult example. Assuming we have three commits but the bad commit is the second commit.  enter image description here

It's not a good idea to use git reset to rollback the commit B since we need to keep commit C as it is a good commit. Now we can revert commit C and B and then use cherry-pick to commit C again.  enter image description here

From above explanation, we can find out that the biggest difference between git reset and git revert is that git reset will reset the state of the branch to a previous state by dropping all the changes post the desired commit while git revert will reset to a previous state by creating new reverting commits and keep the original commits. It's recommended to use git revert instead of git reset in enterprise environment.  Reference: https://kknews.cc/news/4najez2.html

$result = mysql_query("SELECT $field FROM `events` WHERE `id` = '$eventid' ");
$row = mysql_fetch_array($result);
echo $row[$field];

but beware of sql injection cause you are using $_GET directly in a query. The danger of injection is particularly bad because there's no database function to escape identifiers. Instead, you need to pass the field through a whitelist or (better still) use a different name externally than the column name and map the external names to column names. Invalid external names would result in an error.

C# nullable string error

string cannot be the parameter to Nullable because string is not a value type. String is a reference type.

string s = null; 

is a very valid statement and there is not need to make it nullable.

private string typeOfContract
    {
      get { return ViewState["typeOfContract"] as string; }
      set { ViewState["typeOfContract"] = value; }
    }

should work because of the as keyword.

Hide Text with CSS, Best Practice?

Can't you use simply display: none; like this

HTML

<div id="web-title">
   <a href="http://website.com" title="Website" rel="home">
       <span class="webname">Website Name</span>
   </a>
</div>

CSS

.webname {
   display: none;
}

Or how about playing with visibility if you are concerned to reserve the space

.webname {
   visibility: hidden;
}

How to remove time portion of date in C# in DateTime object only?

To get only the date portion use the ToString() method,

example: DateTime.Now.Date.ToString("dd/MM/yyyy")

Note: The mm in the dd/MM/yyyy format must be capitalized

Selecting and manipulating CSS pseudo-elements such as ::before and ::after using javascript (or jQuery)

IF you want to to manipulate the ::before or ::after sudo elements entirely through CSS, you could do it JS. See below;

jQuery('head').append('<style id="mystyle" type="text/css"> /* your styles here */ </style>');

Notice how the <style> element has an ID, which you can use to remove it and append to it again if your style changes dynamically.

This way, your element is style exactly how you want it through CSS, with the help of JS.

How to create a scrollable Div Tag Vertically?

Adding overflow:auto before setting overflow-y seems to do the trick in Google Chrome.

{
    width:249px;
    height:299px;
    background-color:Gray;
    overflow: auto;
    overflow-y: scroll;
    max-width:230px;
    max-height:100px;
}

"cannot be used as a function error"

You can't pass a function as a parameter. Simply remove it from estimatedPopulation() and replace it with 'float growthRate'. use this in your calculation instead of calling the function:

int estimatedPopulation (int currentPopulation, float growthRate)
{
    return (currentPopulation + currentPopulation * growthRate / 100);
}

and call it as:

int foo = estimatedPopulation (currentPopulation, growthRate (birthRate, deathRate));

Restrict SQL Server Login access to only one database

  1. Connect to your SQL server instance using management studio
  2. Goto Security -> Logins -> (RIGHT CLICK) New Login
  3. fill in user details
  4. Under User Mapping, select the databases you want the user to be able to access and configure

UPDATE:

You'll also want to goto Security -> Server Roles, and for public check the permissions for TSQL Default TCP/TSQL Default VIA/TSQL Local Machine/TSQL Named Pipesand remove the connect permission

Dealing with HTTP content in HTTPS pages

If you're looking for a quick solution to load images over HTTPS then the free reverse proxy service at https://images.weserv.nl/ may interest you. It was exactly what I was looking for.

If you're looking for a paid solution, I have previously used Cloudinary.com which also works well but is too expensive solely for this task, in my opinion.

Database corruption with MariaDB : Table doesn't exist in engine

This one really sucked.

I tried all of the solutions suggested here but the only thing that worked was to

  • create a new database
  • run ALTER TABLE old_db.{table_name} RENAME new_db.{table_name} on all of the functioning tables
  • run DROP old_db
  • create old_db again
  • run ALTER TABLE new_db.{table_name} RENAME old_db.{table_name} on all the tables in new_db

Once you have done that you can finally just create the table again that you previously had.

How to access the request body when POSTing using Node.js and Express?

Express 4.0 and above:

$ npm install --save body-parser

And then in your node app:

const bodyParser = require('body-parser');
app.use(bodyParser);

Express 3.0 and below:

Try passing this in your cURL call:

--header "Content-Type: application/json"

and making sure your data is in JSON format:

{"user":"someone"}

Also, you can use console.dir in your node.js code to see the data inside the object as in the following example:

var express = require('express');
var app = express.createServer();

app.use(express.bodyParser());

app.post('/', function(req, res){
    console.dir(req.body);
    res.send("test");
}); 

app.listen(3000);

This other question might also help: How to receive JSON in express node.js POST request?

How to see local history changes in Visual Studio Code?

How can I format the output of a bash command in neat columns

Found this by searching for "linux output formatted columns".

awk '{ printf "%-20s %-40s\n", $1, $2}'

How to Set Opacity (Alpha) for View in Android

What I would suggest you do is create a custom ARGB color in your colors.xml file such as :

<resources>
<color name="translucent_black">#80000000</color>
</resources>

then set your button background to that color :

android:background="@android:color/translucent_black"

Another thing you can do if you want to play around with the shape of the button is to create a Shape drawable resource where you set up the properties what the button should look like :

file: res/drawable/rounded_corner_box.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:shape="rectangle">
    <gradient
        android:startColor="#80000000"
        android:endColor="#80FFFFFF"
        android:angle="45"/>
    <padding android:left="7dp"
        android:top="7dp"
        android:right="7dp"
        android:bottom="7dp" />
    <corners android:radius="8dp" />
</shape>

Then use that as the button background :

    android:background="@drawable/rounded_corner_box"

Twitter API - Display all tweets with a certain hashtag?

UPDATE for v1.1:

Rather than giving q="search_string" give it q="hashtag" in URL encoded form to return results with HASHTAG ONLY. So your query would become:

    GET https://api.twitter.com/1.1/search/tweets.json?q=%23freebandnames

%23 is URL encoded form of #. Try the link out in your browser and it should work.

You can optimize the query by adding since_id and max_id parameters detailed here. Hope this helps !

Note: Search API is now a OAUTH authenticated call, so please include your access_tokens to the above call

Updated

Change R default library path using .libPaths in Rprofile.site fails to work

If you do not have admin-rights, it can also be helpful to open the Rprofile.site-file located in \R-3.1.0\etc and add:

  .libPaths("your path here")
}

This evaluates the .libPath() command directly at start

Why is my Git Submodule HEAD detached from master?

I am also still figuring out the internals of git, and have figured out this so far:

  1. HEAD is a file in your .git/ directory that normally looks something like this:
% cat .git/HEAD
ref: refs/heads/master
  1. refs/heads/master is itself a file that normally has the hash value of the latest commit:
% cat .git/refs/heads/master 
cbf01a8e629e8d884888f19ac203fa037acd901f
  1. If you git checkout a remote branch that is ahead of your master, this may cause your HEAD file to be updated to contain the hash of the latest commit in the remote master:
% cat .git/HEAD
8e2c815f83231f85f067f19ed49723fd1dc023b7

This is called a detached HEAD. The remote master is ahead of your local master. When you do git submodule --remote myrepo to get the latest commit of your submodule, it will by default do a checkout, which will update HEAD. Since your current branch master is behind, HEAD becomes 'detached' from your current branch, so to speak.

What is the proper way to format a multi-line dict in Python?

First of all, like Steven Rumbalski said, "PEP8 doesn't address this question", so it is a matter of personal preference.

I would use a similar but not identical format as your format 3. Here is mine, and why.

my_dictionary = { # Don't think dict(...) notation has more readability
    "key1": 1, # Indent by one press of TAB (i.e. 4 spaces)
    "key2": 2, # Same indentation scale as above
    "key3": 3, # Keep this final comma, so that future addition won't show up as 2-lines change in code diff
    } # My favorite: SAME indentation AS ABOVE, to emphasize this bracket is still part of the above code block!
the_next_line_of_code() # Otherwise the previous line would look like the begin of this part of code

bad_example = {
               "foo": "bar", # Don't do this. Unnecessary indentation wastes screen space
               "hello": "world" # Don't do this. Omitting the comma is not good.
} # You see? This line visually "joins" the next line when in a glance
the_next_line_of_code()

btw_this_is_a_function_with_long_name_or_with_lots_of_parameters(
    foo='hello world',  # So I put one parameter per line
    bar=123,  # And yeah, this extra comma here is harmless too;
              # I bet not many people knew/tried this.
              # Oh did I just show you how to write
              # multiple-line inline comment here?
              # Basically, same indentation forms a natural paragraph.
    ) # Indentation here. Same idea as the long dict case.
the_next_line_of_code()

# By the way, now you see how I prefer inline comment to document the very line.
# I think this inline style is more compact.
# Otherwise you will need extra blank line to split the comment and its code from others.

some_normal_code()

# hi this function is blah blah
some_code_need_extra_explanation()

Comparison of C++ unit test frameworks

I've just pushed my own framework, CATCH, out there. It's still under development but I believe it already surpasses most other frameworks. Different people have different criteria but I've tried to cover most ground without too many trade-offs. Take a look at my linked blog entry for a taster. My top five features are:

  • Header only
  • Auto registration of function and method based tests
  • Decomposes standard C++ expressions into LHS and RHS (so you don't need a whole family of assert macros).
  • Support for nested sections within a function based fixture
  • Name tests using natural language - function/ method names are generated

It also has Objective-C bindings. The project is hosted on Github

Ignore .classpath and .project from Git

The git solution for such scenarios is setting SKIP-WORKTREE BIT. Run only the following command:

git update-index --skip-worktree .classpath .gitignore

It is used when you want git to ignore changes of files that are already managed by git and exist on the index. This is a common use case for config files.

Running git rm --cached doesn't work for the scenario mentioned in the question. If I simplify the question, it says:

How to have .classpath and .project on the repo while each one can change it locally and git ignores this change?

As I commented under the accepted answer, the drawback of git rm --cached is that it causes a change in the index, so you need to commit the change and then push it to the remote repository. As a result, .classpath and .project won't be available on the repo while the PO wants them to be there so anyone that clones the repo for the first time, they can use it.

What is SKIP-WORKTREE BIT?

Based on git documentaion:

Skip-worktree bit can be defined in one (long) sentence: When reading an entry, if it is marked as skip-worktree, then Git pretends its working directory version is up to date and read the index version instead. Although this bit looks similar to assume-unchanged bit, its goal is different from assume-unchanged bit’s. Skip-worktree also takes precedence over assume-unchanged bit when both are set.

More details is available here.

How to check if running as root in a bash script

There is a simple check for a user being root.

The [[ stuff ]] syntax is the standard way of running a check in bash.

error() {
  printf '\E[31m'; echo "$@"; printf '\E[0m'
}

if [[ $EUID -eq 0 ]]; then
    error "Do not run this as the root user"
    exit 1
fi

This also assumes that you want to exit with a 1 if you fail. The error function is some flair that sets output text to red (not needed, but pretty classy if you ask me).

How can I print out all possible letter combinations a given phone number can represent?

      START WITH map.digit = substr('12345',1,1)
      CONNECT BY   digit = substr('12345',LEVEL,1))
WHERE lvl = length('12345');

WPF loading spinner

I wrote this user control which may help, it will display messages with a progress bar spinning to show it is currently loading something.

  <ctr:LoadingPanel x:Name="loadingPanel"
                    IsLoading="{Binding PanelLoading}"
                    Message="{Binding PanelMainMessage}"
                    SubMessage="{Binding PanelSubMessage}" 
                    ClosePanelCommand="{Binding PanelCloseCommand}" />

It has a couple of basic properties that you can bind to.

Android set bitmap to Imageview

There is a library named Picasso which can efficiently load images from a URL. It can also load an image from a file.

Examples:

  1. Load URL into ImageView without generating a bitmap:

    Picasso.with(context) // Context
           .load("http://abc.imgur.com/gxsg.png") // URL or file
           .into(imageView); // An ImageView object to show the loaded image
    
  2. Load URL into ImageView by generating a bitmap:

    Picasso.with(this)
           .load(artistImageUrl)
           .into(new Target() {
               @Override
               public void onBitmapLoaded(final Bitmap bitmap, Picasso.LoadedFrom from) {
                   /* Save the bitmap or do something with it here */
    
                   // Set it in the ImageView
                   theView.setImageBitmap(bitmap)
               }
    
               @Override
               public void onBitmapFailed(Drawable errorDrawable) {
    
               }
    
               @Override
               public void onPrepareLoad(Drawable placeHolderDrawable) {
    
               }
           });
    

There are many more options available in Picasso. Here is the documentation.

        return array.shift();
    } else {
        return array.splice( index, 1 );

How should I make my VBA code compatible with 64-bit Windows?

To write for all versions of Office use a combination of the newer VBA7 and Win64 conditional Compiler Constants.

VBA7 determines if code is running in version 7 of the VB editor (VBA version shipped in Office 2010+).

Win64 determines which version (32-bit or 64-bit) of Office is running.

#If VBA7 Then
'Code is running VBA7 (2010 or later).

     #If Win64 Then
     'Code is running in 64-bit version of Microsoft Office.
     #Else
     'Code is running in 32-bit version of Microsoft Office.
     #End If

#Else
'Code is running VBA6 (2007 or earlier).

#End If

In Python, how do you convert seconds since epoch to a `datetime` object?

Note that datetime.datetime.fromtimestamp(timestamp) and .utcfromtimestamp(timestamp) fail on windows for dates before Jan. 1, 1970 while negative unix timestamps seem to work on unix-based platforms. The docs say this:

"This may raise ValueError, if the timestamp is out of the range of values supported by the platform C gmtime() function. It’s common for this to be restricted to years in 1970 through 2038"

Amazon AWS Filezilla transfer permission denied

In my case the /var/www/html in not a directory but a symbolic link to the /var/app/current, so you should change the real directoy ie /var/app/current:

sudo chown -R ec2-user /var/app/current
sudo chmod -R 755 /var/app/current

I hope this save some of your times :)

Saving awk output to variable

#!/bin/bash

variable=`ps -ef | grep "port 10 -" | grep -v "grep port 10 -" | awk '{printf $12}'`
echo $variable

Notice that there's no space after the equal sign.

You can also use $() which allows nesting and is readable.

Adding a column after another column within SQL

In a Firebird database the AFTER myOtherColumn does not work but you can try re-positioning the column using:

I guess it may work in other cases as well.

How to detect incoming calls, in an Android device?

With Android P - Api Level 28: You need to get READ_CALL_LOG permission

Restricted access to call logs

Android P moves the CALL_LOG, READ_CALL_LOG, WRITE_CALL_LOG, and PROCESS_OUTGOING_CALLS permissions from the PHONE permission group to the new CALL_LOG permission group. This group gives users better control and visibility to apps that need access to sensitive information about phone calls, such as reading phone call records and identifying phone numbers.

To read numbers from the PHONE_STATE intent action, you need both the READ_CALL_LOG permission and the READ_PHONE_STATE permission. To read numbers from onCallStateChanged(), you now need the READ_CALL_LOG permission only. You no longer need the READ_PHONE_STATE permission.

Kotlin unresolved reference in IntelliJ

For me, it was due to the project missing Gradle Libraries in its project structure.

Just add in build.gradle: apply plugin: 'idea'

And then run: $ gradle idea

After that gradle rebuilds dependencies libraries and the references are recognized!

Match everything except for specified strings

If you want to make sure that the string is neither red, green nor blue, caskey's answer is it. What is often wanted, however, is to make sure that the line does not contain red, green or blue anywhere in it. For that, anchor the regular expression with ^ and include .* in the negative lookahead:

^(?!.*(red|green|blue))

Also, suppose that you want lines containing the word "engine" but without any of those colors:

^(?!.*(red|green|blue)).*engine

You might think you can factor the .* to the head of the regular expression:

^.*(?!red|green|blue)engine     # Does not work

but you cannot. You have to have both instances of .* for it to work.

How to disable copy/paste from/to EditText

Using LINQ to remove elements from a List<T>

You can remove in two ways

var output = from x in authorsList
             where x.firstname != "Bob"
             select x;

or

var authors = from x in authorsList
              where x.firstname == "Bob"
              select x;

var output = from x in authorsList
             where !authors.Contains(x) 
             select x;

I had same issue, if you want simple output based on your where condition , then first solution is better.

How to make use of ng-if , ng-else in angularJS

I am adding some of the important concern about ng directives:-

  1. Directives will respond the same place where it's execute.
  2. ng-else concept is not there, you can with only if, or other flavor like switch statement.

Check out the below example:-

<div ng-if="data.type == 'FirstValue' ">

//different template with hoot data

</div>

<div ng-if="data.type == 'SecondValue' ">

  //different template with story data

</div>

<div ng-if="data.type == 'ThirdValue' ">

 //different template with article data

</div>

As per datatype it is going to render any one of the div.

How to replace innerHTML of a div using jQuery?

Just to add some performance insights.

A few years ago I had a project, where we had issues trying to set a large HTML / Text to various HTML elements.

It appeared, that "recreating" the element and injecting it to the DOM was way faster than any of the suggested methods to update the DOM content.

So something like:

_x000D_
_x000D_
var text = "very big content";_x000D_
$("#regTitle").remove();_x000D_
$("<div id='regTitle'>" + text + "</div>").appendTo("body");
_x000D_
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
_x000D_
_x000D_
_x000D_

Should get you a better performance. I haven't recently tried to measure that (browsers should be clever these days), but if you're looking for performance it may help.

The downside is that you will have more work to keep the DOM and the references in your scripts pointing to the right object.

How can I convert a string to a number in Perl?

Perl is a context-based language. It doesn't do its work according to the data you give it. Instead, it figures out how to treat the data based on the operators you use and the context in which you use them. If you do numbers sorts of things, you get numbers:

# numeric addition with strings:
my $sum = '5.45' + '0.01'; # 5.46

If you do strings sorts of things, you get strings:

# string replication with numbers:
my $string = ( 45/2 ) x 4; # "22.522.522.522.5"

Perl mostly figures out what to do and it's mostly right. Another way of saying the same thing is that Perl cares more about the verbs than it does the nouns.

Are you trying to do something and it isn't working?

What does the "$" sign mean in jQuery or JavaScript?

Additional to the jQuery thing treated in the other answers there is another meaning in JavaScript - as prefix for the RegExp properties representing matches, for example:

"test".match( /t(e)st/ );
alert( RegExp.$1 );

will alert "e"

But also here it's not "magic" but simply part of the properties name

How can I convert a VBScript to an executable (EXE) file?

Windows Forms

For a Windows Forms version (no console window and we don't get around to actually creating any forms - though you can if you want).

Compile line in a command prompt.

"C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\vbc.exe" /t:winexe "%userprofile%\desktop\VBS2Exe.vb"

Text for VBS2EXE.vb

Imports System.Windows.Forms 

Partial Class MyForm : Inherits Form 

Private Sub InitializeComponent() 


End Sub

Public Sub New() 

InitializeComponent() 

End Sub

Public Shared Sub Main() 

Dim sc as object 
Dim Scrpt as string

sc = createObject("MSScriptControl.ScriptControl")

Scrpt = "msgbox " & chr(34) & "Hi there I'm a form" & chr(34)

With SC 
.Language = "VBScript" 
.UseSafeSubset = False 
.AllowUI = True 
End With


sc.addcode(Scrpt)


End Sub

End Class

Using these optional parameters gives you an icon and manifest. A manifest allows you to specify run as normal, run elevated if admin, only run elevated.

/win32icon: Specifies a Win32 icon file (.ico) for the default Win32 resources.

/win32manifest: The provided file is embedded in the manifest section of the output PE.

In theory, I have UAC off so can't test, but put this text file on the desktop and call it vbs2exe.manifest, save as UTF-8.

The command line

"C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\vbc.exe" /t:winexe /win32manifest:"%userprofile%\desktop\VBS2Exe.manifest" "%userprofile%\desktop\VBS2Exe.vb"

The manifest

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?> 
  <assembly xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1" 
  manifestVersion="1.0"> <assemblyIdentity version="1.0.0.0" 
  processorArchitecture="*" name="VBS2EXE" type="win32" /> 
  <description>Script to Exe</description> 
  <trustInfo xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v3"> 
  <security> <requestedPrivileges> 
  <requestedExecutionLevel level="requireAdministrator" 
  uiAccess="false" /> </requestedPrivileges> 
  </security> </trustInfo> </assembly>

Hopefully it will now ONLY run as admin.

Give Access To a Host's Objects

Here's an example giving the vbscript access to a .NET object.

Imports System.Windows.Forms 

Partial Class MyForm : Inherits Form 

Private Sub InitializeComponent() 


End Sub 

Public Sub New() 

InitializeComponent() 

End Sub 

Public Shared Sub Main() 

Dim sc as object
Dim Scrpt as string 

sc = createObject("MSScriptControl.ScriptControl") 

Scrpt = "msgbox " & chr(34) & "Hi there I'm a form" & chr(34) & ":msgbox meScript.state" 

With SC
.Language = "VBScript"
.UseSafeSubset = False
.AllowUI = True
.addobject("meScript", SC, true)
End With 


sc.addcode(Scrpt) 


End Sub 

End Class

How do I exclude all instances of a transitive dependency when using Gradle?

In addition to what @berguiga-mohamed-amine stated, I just found that a wildcard requires leaving the module argument the empty string:

    exclude group: 'org.apache.httpcomponents', module: ''
    exclude group: 'org.slf4j', module: ''
}

How to perform a fade animation on Activity transition?

You could create your own .xml animation files to fade in a new Activity and fade out the current Activity:

fade_in.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<alpha xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
           android:interpolator="@android:anim/accelerate_interpolator"
           android:fromAlpha="0.0" android:toAlpha="1.0"
           android:duration="500" />

fade_out.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<alpha xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
           android:interpolator="@android:anim/accelerate_interpolator"
           android:fromAlpha="1.0" android:toAlpha="0.0"
           android:fillAfter="true"
           android:duration="500" />

Use it in code like that: (Inside your Activity)

Intent i = new Intent(this, NewlyStartedActivity.class);
startActivity(i);
overridePendingTransition(R.anim.fade_in, R.anim.fade_out);

The above code will fade out the currently active Activity and fade in the newly started Activity resulting in a smooth transition.

UPDATE: @Dan J pointed out that using the built in Android animations improves performance, which I indeed found to be the case after doing some testing. If you prefer working with the built in animations, use:

overridePendingTransition(android.R.anim.fade_in, android.R.anim.fade_out);

Notice me referencing android.R instead of R to access the resource id.

UPDATE: It is now common practice to perform transitions using the Transition class introduced in API level 19.

Batch - If, ElseIf, Else

batchfiles perform simple string substitution with variables. so, a simple

goto :language%language%
echo notfound
...

does this without any need for if.

ascending/descending in LINQ - can one change the order via parameter?

You can easily create your own extension method on IEnumerable or IQueryable:

public static IOrderedEnumerable<TSource> OrderByWithDirection<TSource,TKey>
    (this IEnumerable<TSource> source,
     Func<TSource, TKey> keySelector,
     bool descending)
{
    return descending ? source.OrderByDescending(keySelector)
                      : source.OrderBy(keySelector);
}

public static IOrderedQueryable<TSource> OrderByWithDirection<TSource,TKey>
    (this IQueryable<TSource> source,
     Expression<Func<TSource, TKey>> keySelector,
     bool descending)
{
    return descending ? source.OrderByDescending(keySelector)
                      : source.OrderBy(keySelector);
}

Yes, you lose the ability to use a query expression here - but frankly I don't think you're actually benefiting from a query expression anyway in this case. Query expressions are great for complex things, but if you're only doing a single operation it's simpler to just put that one operation:

var query = dataList.OrderByWithDirection(x => x.Property, direction);

How to check if String is null

You can use the null coalescing double question marks to test for nulls in a string or other nullable value type:

textBox1.Text = s ?? "Is null";

The operator '??' asks if the value of 's' is null and if not it returns 's'; if it is null it returns the value on the right of the operator.

More info here: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms173224.aspx

And also worth noting there's a null-conditional operator ?. and ?[ introduced in C# 6.0 (and VB) in VS2015

textBox1.Text = customer?.orders?[0].description ?? "n/a";

This returns "n/a" if description is null, or if the order is null, or if the customer is null, else it returns the value of description.

More info here: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn986595.aspx

How can I do a line break (line continuation) in Python?

What is the line? You can just have arguments on the next line without any problems:

a = dostuff(blahblah1, blahblah2, blahblah3, blahblah4, blahblah5, 
            blahblah6, blahblah7)

Otherwise you can do something like this:

if (a == True and
    b == False):

or with explicit line break:

if a == True and \
   b == False:

Check the style guide for more information.

Using parentheses, your example can be written over multiple lines:

a = ('1' + '2' + '3' +
    '4' + '5')

The same effect can be obtained using explicit line break:

a = '1' + '2' + '3' + \
    '4' + '5'

Note that the style guide says that using the implicit continuation with parentheses is preferred, but in this particular case just adding parentheses around your expression is probably the wrong way to go.

Apache won't run in xampp

Like Ianshark points out, a common reason for this error in Windows 7 is the Web Deployment Agent service.

The Web Deploy Tool enables administrators to use IIS Manager to deploy ASP.NET and PHP applications to an IIS server.

You can disable it from XAMPP Control Panel by clicking the "Services" button. If you have changed the port in the Apache config file, change it back to 80. Then uninstall Microsoft Web Deploy, if you prefer a more permanent solution.

How do I get the logfile from an Android device?

I know it's an old question, but I believe still valid even in 2018.

There is an option to Take a bug report hidden in Developer options in every android device.

NOTE: This would dump whole system log

How to enable developer options? see: https://developer.android.com/studio/debug/dev-options

What works for me:

  1. Restart your device (in order to create minimum garbage logs for developer to analyze)
  2. Reproduce your bug
  3. Go to Settings -> Developer options -> Take a bug report
  4. Wait for Android system to collect the logs (watch the progressbar in notification)
  5. Once it completes, tap the notification to share it (you can use gmail or whetever else)

how to read this? open bugreport-1960-01-01-hh-mm-ss.txt

you probably want to look for something like this:

------ SYSTEM LOG (logcat -v threadtime -v printable -d *:v) ------
--------- beginning of crash
06-13 14:37:36.542 19294 19294 E AndroidRuntime: FATAL EXCEPTION: main

or:

------ SYSTEM LOG (logcat -v threadtime -v printable -d *:v) ------
--------- beginning of main

How to get my activity context?

If you need the context of A in B, you need to pass it to B, and you can do that by passing the Activity A as parameter as others suggested. I do not see much the problem of having the many instances of A having their own pointers to B, not sure if that would even be that much of an overhead.

But if that is the problem, a possibility is to keep the pointer to A as a sort of global, avariable of the Application class, as @hasanghaforian suggested. In fact, depending on what do you need the context for, you could even use the context of the Application instead.

I'd suggest reading this article about context to better figure it out what context you need.

Creating a directory in /sdcard fails

There are Many Things You Need to worry about 1.If you are using Android Bellow Marshmallow then you have to set permesions in Manifest File. 2. If you are using later Version of Android means from Marshmallow to Oreo now Either you have to go to the App Info and Set there manually App permission for Storage. if you want to Set it at Run Time you can do that by below code

public  boolean isStoragePermissionGranted() {
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= 23) {
    if (checkSelfPermission(android.Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE)
            == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
        Log.v(TAG,"Permission is granted");
        return true;
    } else {

        Log.v(TAG,"Permission is revoked");
        ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this, new String[]{Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE}, 1);
        return false;
    }
}
else { //permission is automatically granted on sdk<23 upon installation
    Log.v(TAG,"Permission is granted");
    return true;
}

n-grams in python, four, five, six grams?

Great native python based answers given by other users. But here's the nltk approach (just in case, the OP gets penalized for reinventing what's already existing in the nltk library).

There is an ngram module that people seldom use in nltk. It's not because it's hard to read ngrams, but training a model base on ngrams where n > 3 will result in much data sparsity.

from nltk import ngrams

sentence = 'this is a foo bar sentences and i want to ngramize it'

n = 6
sixgrams = ngrams(sentence.split(), n)

for grams in sixgrams:
  print grams

How do I make a C++ macro behave like a function?

C++11 brought us lambdas, which can be incredibly useful in this situation:

#define MACRO(X,Y)                              \
    [&](x_, y_) {                               \
        cout << "1st arg is:" << x_ << endl;    \
        cout << "2nd arg is:" << y_ << endl;    \
        cout << "Sum is:" << (x_ + y_) << endl; \
    }((X), (Y))

You keep the generative power of macros, but have a comfy scope from which you can return whatever you want (including void). Additionally, the issue of evaluating macro parameters multiple times is avoided.

JQuery Validate Dropdown list

Easiest way to get it done is by adding required into your select

Select the best option
<br/>

<select name="dd1" id="dd1" required>
<option value="none">None</option>
<option value="o1">option 1</option>
<option value="o2">option 2</option>
<option value="o3">option 3</option>
</select>

How to remove a package in sublime text 2

If you installed with package control, search for "Package Control: Remove Package" in the command palette (accessed with Ctrl+Shift+P). Otherwise you can just remove the Emmet directory.

If you wish to use a custom caption to access commands, create Default.sublime-commands in your User folder. Then insert something similar to the following.

[
    {
        "caption": "Package Control: Uninstall Package",
        "command": "remove_package"
    }
]

Of course, you can customize the command and caption as you see fit.

Array of strings in groovy

If you really want to create an array rather than a list use either

String[] names = ["lucas", "Fred", "Mary"]

or

def names = ["lucas", "Fred", "Mary"].toArray()

Excel VBA to Export Selected Sheets to PDF

Once you have Selected a group of sheets, you can use Selection

Consider:

Sub luxation()
    ThisWorkbook.Sheets(Array("Sheet1", "Sheet2", "Sheet3")).Select
    Selection.ExportAsFixedFormat _
        Type:=xlTypePDF, _
        Filename:="C:\TestFolder\temp.pdf", _
        Quality:=xlQualityStandard, _
        IncludeDocProperties:=True, _
        IgnorePrintAreas:=False, _
        OpenAfterPublish:=True
End Sub

EDIT#1:

Further testing has reveled that this technique depends on the group of cells selected on each worksheet. To get a comprehensive output, use something like:

Sub Macro1()

   Sheets("Sheet1").Activate
   ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Select
   Sheets("Sheet2").Activate
   ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Select
   Sheets("Sheet3").Activate
   ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Select

   ThisWorkbook.Sheets(Array("Sheet1", "Sheet2", "Sheet3")).Select
   Selection.ExportAsFixedFormat Type:=xlTypePDF, Filename:= _
      "C:\Users\James\Desktop\pdfmaker.pdf", Quality:=xlQualityStandard, _
      IncludeDocProperties:=True, IgnorePrintAreas:=False, OpenAfterPublish:= _
      True
End Sub

Best ways to teach a beginner to program?

Try to find a copy of Why's (Poignant) Guide to Ruby online. The original site is offline but I'm sure there are a few mirrors out there. It's not your typical programming guide; it puts a unique (and funny) spin on learning a new language that might suit your friend. Not to mention, Ruby is a great language to learn with.

What is the best way to remove accents (normalize) in a Python unicode string?

perfplot

import unicodedata
from random import choice

import perfplot
import regex
import text_unidecode


def remove_accent_chars_regex(x: str):
    return regex.sub(r'\p{Mn}', '', unicodedata.normalize('NFKD', x))


def remove_accent_chars_join(x: str):
    # answer by MiniQuark
    # https://stackoverflow.com/a/517974/7966259
    return u"".join([c for c in unicodedata.normalize('NFKD', x) if not unicodedata.combining(c)])


perfplot.show(
    setup=lambda n: ''.join([choice('Málaga François Phút Hon ??') for i in range(n)]),
    kernels=[
        remove_accent_chars_regex,
        remove_accent_chars_join,
        text_unidecode.unidecode,

    labels=['regex', 'join', 'unidecode'],
    n_range=[2 ** k for k in range(22)],
    equality_check=None, relative_to=0, xlabel='str len'
)

jQuery changing style of HTML element

you could also specify multiple style values like this

$('#navigation ul li').css({'display': 'inline-block','background-color': '#ff0000', 'color': '#ffffff'});

Using setDate in PreparedStatement

Not sure, but what I think you're looking for is to create a java.util.Date from a String, then convert that java.util.Date to a java.sql.Date.

try this:

private static java.sql.Date getCurrentDate(String date) {

    java.util.Date today;
    java.sql.Date rv = null;
    try {

        SimpleDateFormat format = new SimpleDateFormat("dd-MM-yyyy");
        today = format.parse(date);
        rv = new java.sql.Date(today.getTime());
        System.out.println(rv.getTime());

    } catch (Exception e) {
        System.out.println("Exception: " + e.getMessage());
    } finally {
        return rv;
    }

}    

Will return a java.sql.Date object for setDate();

The function above will print out a long value:

1375934400000

SQL TRUNCATE DATABASE ? How to TRUNCATE ALL TABLES

Taking a point from both Boycs Answer and mtmurdock's subsequent answer I have the following stored proc on all of my development or staging databases. I've added some switches to fit my own requirement if I need to add in statements to reseed the data for certain columns.

(Note: I would have added this as a comment to Boycs brilliant answer but I haven't got enough reputation to do that yet. So please accept my apologies for adding this as an entirely new answer.)

ALTER PROCEDURE up_ResetEntireDatabase
@IncludeIdentReseed BIT,
@IncludeDataReseed BIT
AS

EXEC sp_MSForEachTable 'ALTER TABLE ? NOCHECK CONSTRAINT ALL'
EXEC sp_MSForEachTable 'DELETE FROM ?'

IF @IncludeIdentReseed = 1
BEGIN
    EXEC sp_MSForEachTable 'DBCC CHECKIDENT (''?'' , RESEED, 1)'
END

EXEC sp_MSForEachTable 'ALTER TABLE ? CHECK CONSTRAINT ALL'

IF @IncludeDataReseed = 1
BEGIN
    -- Populate Core Data Table Here
END
GO

And then once ready the execution is really simple:

EXEC up_ResetEntireDatabase 1, 1

Toggle Checkboxes on/off

The best way I can think of.

$('#selectAll').change(function () {
    $('.reportCheckbox').prop('checked', this.checked);
});

or

$checkBoxes = $(".checkBoxes");
$("#checkAll").change(function (e) {
    $checkBoxes.prop("checked", this.checked);
});   

or

<input onchange="toggleAll(this)">
function toggleAll(sender) {
    $(".checkBoxes").prop("checked", sender.checked);
}

Why does JSON.parse fail with the empty string?

For a valid JSON string at least a "{}" is required. See more at the http://json.org/

How to restart a windows service using Task Scheduler

Instead of using a bat file, you can simply create a Scheduled Task. Most of the time you define just one action. In this case, create two actions with the NET command. The first one to stop the service, the second one to start the service. Give them a STOP and START argument, followed by the service name.

In this example we restart the Printer Spooler service.

NET STOP "Print Spooler" 
NET START "Print Spooler"

enter image description here

enter image description here

Note: unfortunately NET RESTART <service name> does not exist.

Android Studio: Drawable Folder: How to put Images for Multiple dpi?

The easiest way I have found to have the proper "directory" structure appear under the drawable folder for my icons is this:

  1. Right click "Drawable"
  2. Click on "New", then "Image Asset"
  3. Change "Asset Type" to "Action Bar and Tab Icons"
  4. For "Foreground" choose "ClipArt"
  5. For "Clipart" click and "Choose" button and pick any icon
  6. For "Resource Name" type in you icon file name

Now the pseudo-directories have been created for you under the Drawable folder in the Android view. Open up the true directories on your file system "main/res/drawable-xxhdpi", "main/res/drawable-xhdpi" and replace the icons in each folder with your own of the proper density.

reading a line from ifstream into a string variable

Use the std::getline() from <string>.

 istream & getline(istream & is,std::string& str)

So, for your case it would be:

std::getline(read,x);

C# how to create a Guid value?

There's also ShortGuid - A shorter and url friendly GUID class in C#. It's available as a Nuget. More information here.

PM> Install-Package CSharpVitamins.ShortGuid

Usage:

Guid guid = Guid.NewGuid();
ShortGuid sguid1 = guid; // implicitly cast the guid as a shortguid
Console.WriteLine(sguid1);
Console.WriteLine(sguid1.Guid);

This produces a new guid, uses that guid to create a ShortGuid, and displays the two equivalent values in the console. Results would be something along the lines of:

ShortGuid: FEx1sZbSD0ugmgMAF_RGHw 
Guid:      b1754c14-d296-4b0f-a09a-030017f4461f

Why is lock(this) {...} bad?

Here's a much simpler illustration (taken from Question 34 here) why lock(this) is bad and may result in deadlocks when consumer of your class also try to lock on the object. Below, only one of three thread can proceed, the other two are deadlocked.

class SomeClass
{
    public void SomeMethod(int id)
    {
        **lock(this)**
        {
            while(true)
            {
                Console.WriteLine("SomeClass.SomeMethod #" + id);
            }
        }
    }
}

class Program
{
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        SomeClass o = new SomeClass();

        lock(o)
        {
            for (int threadId = 0; threadId < 3; threadId++)
            {
                Thread t = new Thread(() => {
                    o.SomeMethod(threadId);
                        });
                t.Start();
            }

            Console.WriteLine();
        }

To work around, this guy used Thread.TryMonitor (with timeout) instead of lock:

            Monitor.TryEnter(temp, millisecondsTimeout, ref lockWasTaken);
            if (lockWasTaken)
            {
                doAction();
            }
            else
            {
                throw new Exception("Could not get lock");
            }

How to read numbers from file in Python?

Assuming you don't have extraneous whitespace:

with open('file') as f:
    w, h = [int(x) for x in next(f).split()] # read first line
    array = []
    for line in f: # read rest of lines
        array.append([int(x) for x in line.split()])

You could condense the last for loop into a nested list comprehension:

with open('file') as f:
    w, h = [int(x) for x in next(f).split()]
    array = [[int(x) for x in line.split()] for line in f]

Best IDE for HTML5, Javascript, CSS, Jquery support with GUI building tools

My personal experience to build website with html, css en javascript is just to stick with plain text editors with ftp support. I am using Espresso or/and Coda on my mac. But Textmate with Cyberduck(ftp client) is also a great combination, imo. For developing in Windows I recommend notepad++.

What are good ways to prevent SQL injection?

SQL injection can be a tricky problem but there are ways around it. Your risk is reduced your risk simply by using an ORM like Linq2Entities, Linq2SQL, NHibrenate. However you can have SQL injection problems even with them.

The main thing with SQL injection is user controlled input (as is with XSS). In the most simple example if you have a login form (I hope you never have one that just does this) that takes a username and password.

SELECT * FROM Users WHERE Username = '" + username + "' AND password = '" + password + "'"

If a user were to input the following for the username Admin' -- the SQL Statement would look like this when executing against the database.

SELECT * FROM Users WHERE Username = 'Admin' --' AND password = ''

In this simple case using a paramaterized query (which is what an ORM does) would remove your risk. You also have a the issue of a lesser known SQL injection attack vector and that's with stored procedures. In this case even if you use a paramaterized query or an ORM you would still have a SQL injection problem. Stored procedures can contain execute commands, and those commands themselves may be suceptable to SQL injection attacks.

CREATE PROCEDURE SP_GetLogin @username varchar(100), @password varchar(100) AS
DECLARE @sql nvarchar(4000)
SELECT @sql = ' SELECT * FROM users' +
              ' FROM Product Where username = ''' + @username + ''' AND password = '''+@password+''''

EXECUTE sp_executesql @sql

So this example would have the same SQL injection problem as the previous one even if you use paramaterized queries or an ORM. And although the example seems silly you'd be surprised as to how often something like this is written.

My recommendations would be to use an ORM to immediately reduce your chances of having a SQL injection problem, and then learn to spot code and stored procedures which can have the problem and work to fix them. I don't recommend using ADO.NET (SqlClient, SqlCommand etc...) directly unless you have to, not because it's somehow not safe to use it with parameters but because it's that much easier to get lazy and just start writing a SQL query using strings and just ignoring the parameters. ORMS do a great job of forcing you to use parameters because it's just what they do.

Next Visit the OWASP site on SQL injection https://www.owasp.org/index.php/SQL_Injection and use the SQL injection cheat sheet to make sure you can spot and take out any issues that will arise in your code. https://www.owasp.org/index.php/SQL_Injection_Prevention_Cheat_Sheet finally I would say put in place a good code review between you and other developers at your company where you can review each others code for things like SQL injection and XSS. A lot of times programmers miss this stuff because they're trying to rush out some feature and don't spend too much time on reviewing their code.

Most efficient way to check if a file is empty in Java on Windows

I think the best way is to use file.length == 0.

It is sometimes possible that the first line is empty.

Sonar properties files

You can define a Multi-module project structure, then you can set the configuration for sonar in one properties file in the root folder of your project, (Way #1)

Database development mistakes made by application developers

The most common mistake I've seen in twenty years: not planning ahead. Many developers will create a database, and tables, and then continually modify and expand the tables as they build out the applications. The end result is often a mess and inefficient and difficult to clean up or simplify later on.

How do I execute code AFTER a form has loaded?

First time it WILL NOT start "AfterLoading",
It will just register it to start NEXT Load.

private void Main_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
    //Register it to Start in Load 
    //Starting from the Next time.
    this.Activated += AfterLoading;
}

private void AfterLoading(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    this.Activated -= AfterLoading;
    //Write your code here.
}

How to access remote server with local phpMyAdmin client?

In Windows with Wamp Server Installed you may find the configuration file

Spring Boot Program cannot find main class

Intellij

  • close Intellij
  • remove all files related to Intellij (.idea folder and *.iml files)
  • open the project in Intellij as if it was the first time (using open recent won't work, id needs to be done via file -> open)
