Programs & Examples On #.htaccess

Directory-level configuration file used by Apache web servers. Use this tag if and only if .htaccess content is directly involved in the topic. We know many people are using .htaccess, but kindly ask the members of the community to not use this tag, unless you know it is on-topic in your question.

Disable PHP in directory (including all sub-directories) with .htaccess

If you're using mod_php, you could put (either in a .htaccess in /USERS or in your httpd.conf for the USERS directory)

RemoveHandler .php

or

RemoveType .php

(depending on whether PHP is enabled using AddHandler or AddType)

PHP files run from another directory will be still able to include files in /USERS (assuming that there is no open_basedir restriction), because this does not go through Apache. If a php file is accessed using apache it will be serverd as plain text.

Edit

Lance Rushing's solution of just denying access to the files is probably better

How to redirect all HTTP requests to HTTPS

Add the following code to the .htaccess file:

Options +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} !=443
RewriteRule ^ https://[your domain name]%{REQUEST_URI} [R,L]

Where [your domain name] is your website's domain name.

You can also redirect specific folders off of your domain name by replacing the last line of the code above with:

RewriteRule ^ https://[your domain name]/[directory name]%{REQUEST_URI} [R,L]

.htaccess deny from all

This syntax has changed with the newer Apache HTTPd server, please see upgrade to apache 2.4 doc for full details.

2.2 configuration syntax was

Order deny,allow
Deny from all

2.4 configuration now is

Require all denied

Thus, this 2.2 syntax

order deny,allow
deny from all
allow from 127.0.0.1

Would ne now written

Require local

Apache: client denied by server configuration

Apache 2.4.3 (or maybe slightly earlier) added a new security feature that often results in this error. You would also see a log message of the form "client denied by server configuration". The feature is requiring an authorized user identity to access a directory. It is turned on by DEFAULT in the httpd.conf that ships with Apache. You can see the enabling of the feature with the directive

Require all denied

This basically says to deny access to all users. To fix this problem, either remove the denied directive (or much better) add the following directive to the directories you want to grant access to:

Require all granted

as in

<Directory "your directory here">
   Order allow,deny
   Allow from all
   # New directive needed in Apache 2.4.3: 
   Require all granted
</Directory>

CodeIgniter 500 Internal Server Error

This works fine for me

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
  RewriteEngine On
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
  RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L]
</IfModule >

CodeIgniter removing index.php from url

on your htaccess use this,

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /root_folder_name/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^system.*
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|images|js|uploads|css|robots\.txt)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php/$1 [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L]

Hope this helps.

How can I fix the 'Missing Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) Response Header' webfont issue?

In your particular case the issue seem to be with accessing the site from non-canonical url (www.site.com vs. site.com).

Instead of fixing CORS issue (which may require writing proxy to server fonts with proper CORS headers depending on service provider) you can normalize your Urls to always server content on canonical Url and simply redirect if one requests page without "www.".

Alternatively you can upload fonts to different server/CDN that is known to have CORS headers configured or you can easily do so.

Directory index forbidden by Options directive

It means there's no default document in that directory (index.html, index.php, etc...). On most webservers, that would mean it would show a listing of the directory's contents. But showing that directory is forbidden by server configuration (Options -Indexes)

.htaccess redirect all pages to new domain

The below answer could potentially cause an infinite redirect loop...

Here, this one redirects everything after the domain name on the URL to the exact same copy on the new domain URL:

RewriteEngine on 
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.newdomain.com/$1 [R=301,L]
www.example.net/somepage.html?var=foo

redirects to:

www.newdomain.com/somepage.html?var=foo

How to remove index.php from URLs?

Follow the below steps it will helps you.

step 1: Go to to your site root folder and you can find the .htaccess file there. Open it with a text editor and find the line #RewriteBase /magento/. Just replace it with #RewriteBase / take out just the 'magento/'

step 2: Then go to your admin panel and enable the Rewrites(set yes for Use Web Server Rewrites). You can find it at System->Configuration->Web->Search Engine Optimization.

step 3: Then go to Cache management page (system cache management ) and refresh your cache and refresh to check the site.

What is .htaccess file?

.htaccess file create in directory /var/www/html/.htaccess

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^ index.php [QSA,L]
</IfModule>

How to use a RELATIVE path with AuthUserFile in htaccess?

For just in case people are looking for solution for this:

<If "req('Host') = 'www.example.com'">
    Authtype Basic
    AuthName "user and password"
    AuthUserFile /var/www/www.example.com/.htpasswd
    Require valid-user
</If>

htaccess redirect if URL contains a certain string

RewriteRule ^(.*)foobar(.*)$ http://www.example.com/index.php [L,R=301]

(No space inside your website)

.htaccess, order allow, deny, deny from all: confused?

This is a quite confusing way of using Apache configuration directives.

Technically, the first bit is equivalent to

Allow From All

This is because Order Deny,Allow makes the Deny directive evaluated before the Allow Directives. In this case, Deny and Allow conflict with each other, but Allow, being the last evaluated will match any user, and access will be granted.

Now, just to make things clear, this kind of configuration is BAD and should be avoided at all cost, because it borders undefined behaviour.

The Limit sections define which HTTP methods have access to the directory containing the .htaccess file.

Here, GET and POST methods are allowed access, and PUT and DELETE methods are denied access. Here's a link explaining what the various HTTP methods are: http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec9.html

However, it's more than often useless to use these limitations as long as you don't have custom CGI scripts or Apache modules that directly handle the non-standard methods (PUT and DELETE), since by default, Apache does not handle them at all.

It must also be noted that a few other methods exist that can also be handled by Limit, namely CONNECT, OPTIONS, PATCH, PROPFIND, PROPPATCH, MKCOL, COPY, MOVE, LOCK, and UNLOCK.

The last bit is also most certainly useless, since any correctly configured Apache installation contains the following piece of configuration (for Apache 2.2 and earlier):

#
# The following lines prevent .htaccess and .htpasswd files from being 
# viewed by Web clients. 
#
<Files ~ "^\.ht">
    Order allow,deny
    Deny from all
    Satisfy all
</Files>

which forbids access to any file beginning by ".ht".

The equivalent Apache 2.4 configuration should look like:

<Files ~ "^\.ht">
    Require all denied
</Files>

Htaccess: add/remove trailing slash from URL

To complement Jon Lin's answer, here is a no-trailing-slash technique that also works if the website is located in a directory (like example.org/blog/):

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} (.+)/$
RewriteRule ^ %1 [R=301,L]


For the sake of completeness, here is an alternative emphasizing that REQUEST_URI starts with a slash (at least in .htaccess files):

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} /(.*)/$
RewriteRule ^ /%1 [R=301,L] <-- added slash here too, don't forget it

Just don't use %{REQUEST_URI} (.*)/$. Because in the root directory REQUEST_URI equals /, the leading slash, and it would be misinterpreted as a trailing slash.

(update: this technique is now implemented in Laravel 5.5)

.htaccess or .htpasswd equivalent on IIS?

This is the documentation that you want: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa292114(VS.71).aspx

I guess the answer is, yes, there is an equivalent that will accomplish the same thing, integrated with Windows security.

convert htaccess to nginx

Online tools to translate Apache .htaccess to Nginx rewrite tools include:

Note that these tools will convert to equivalent rewrite expressions using if statements, but they should be converted to try_files. See:

.htaccess not working apache

  1. Enable Apache mod_rewrite module

    a2enmod rewrite

  2. add the following code to /etc/apache2/sites-available/default

    AllowOverride All

  3. Restart apache

    /etc/init.d/apache2 restart

rewrite a folder name using .htaccess

try:

RewriteRule ^/apple(.*)?$ /folder1$1 [NC]

Where the folder you want to appear in the url is in the first part of the statement - this is what it will match against and the second part 'rewrites' it to your existing folder. the [NC] flag means that it will ignore case differences eg Apple/ will still forward.

See here for a tutorial: http://www.sitepoint.com/article/guide-url-rewriting/

There is also a nice test utility for windows you can download from here: http://www.helicontech.com/download/rxtest.zip Just to note for the tester you need to leave out the domain name - so the test would be against /folder1/login.php

to redirect from /folder1 to /apple try this:

RewriteRule ^/folder1(.*)?$ /apple$1 [R]

to redirect and then rewrite just combine the above in the htaccess file:

RewriteRule ^/folder1(.*)?$ /apple$1 [R]
RewriteRule ^/apple(.*)?$ /folder1$1 [NC]

How to debug .htaccess RewriteRule not working

To answer the first question of the three asked, a simple way to see if the .htaccess file is working or not is to trigger a custom error at the top of the .htaccess file:

ErrorDocument 200 "Hello. This is your .htaccess file talking."
RewriteRule ^ - [L,R=200]

On to your second question, if the .htaccess file is not being read it is possible that the server's main Apache configuration has AllowOverride set to None. Apache's documentation has troubleshooting tips for that and other cases that may be preventing the .htaccess from taking effect.

Finally, to answer your third question, if you need to debug specific variables you are referencing in your rewrite rule or are using an expression that you want to evaluate independently of the rule you can do the following:

Output the variable you are referencing to make sure it has the value you are expecting:

ErrorDocument 200 "Request: %{THE_REQUEST} Referrer: %{HTTP_REFERER} Host: %{HTTP_HOST}"
RewriteRule ^ - [L,R=200]

Test the expression independently by putting it in an <If> Directive. This allows you to make sure your expression is written properly or matching when you expect it to:

<If "%{REQUEST_URI} =~ /word$/">
    ErrorDocument 200 "Your expression is priceless!"
    RewriteRule ^ - [L,R=200]
</If>

Happy .htaccess debugging!

htaccess - How to force the client's browser to clear the cache?

In my case, I change a lot an specific JS file and I need it to be in its last version in all browsers where is being used.

I do not have a specific version number for this file, so I simply hash the current date and time (hour and minute) and pass it as the version number:

<script src="/js/panel/app.js?v={{ substr(md5(date("Y-m-d_Hi")),10,18) }}"></script>

I need it to be loaded every minute, but you can decide when it should be reloaded.

Redirecting 404 error with .htaccess via 301 for SEO etc

I came up with the solution and posted it on my blog

http://web.archive.org/web/20130310123646/http://onlinemarketingexperts.com.au/2013/01/how-to-permanently-redirect-301-all-404-missing-pages-in-htaccess/

here is the htaccess code also

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule . / [L,R=301]

but I posted other solutions on my blog too, it depends what you need really

.htaccess redirect http to https

I use the following to successfully redirect all pages of my domain from http to https:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]

Note this will redirect using the 301 'permanently moved' redirect, which will help transfer your SEO rankings.

To redirect using the 302 'temporarily moved' change [R=302,L]

Increase max execution time for php

PHP file (for example, my_lengthy_script.php)

ini_set('max_execution_time', 300); //300 seconds = 5 minutes

.htaccess file

<IfModule mod_php5.c>
php_value max_execution_time 300
</IfModule>

More configuration options

<IfModule mod_php5.c>
php_value post_max_size 5M
php_value upload_max_filesize 5M
php_value memory_limit 128M
php_value max_execution_time 300
php_value max_input_time 300
php_value session.gc_maxlifetime 1200
</IfModule>

If wordpress, set this in the config.php file,

define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '128M');

If drupal, sites/default/settings.php

ini_set('memory_limit', '128M');

If you are using other frameworks,

ini_set('memory_limit', '128M');

You can increase memory as gigabyte.

ini_set('memory_limit', '3G'); // 3 Gigabytes

259200 means:-

( 259200/(60x60 minutes) ) / 24 hours ===> 3 Days

How Can I Remove “public/index.php” in the URL Generated Laravel?

Laravel ships with a pretty URL .htaccess already... you should be good to go out of the box... http://laravel.com/docs/installation#pretty-urls

Make sure mod_rewrite is enabled and that your home path is set to the public directory of your application.

Apache 2.4 - Request exceeded the limit of 10 internal redirects due to probable configuration error

This problem can be caused by requests for certain files that don't exist. For example, requests for files in wp-content/uploads/ where the file does not exist.

If this is the situation you're seeing, you can solve the problem by going to .htaccess and changing this line:

RewriteRule ^(wp-(content|admin|includes).*) $1 [L]

to:

RewriteRule ^(wp-(content|admin|includes).*) - [L]

The underlying issue is that the rule above triggers a rewrite to the exact same url with a slash in front and because there was a rewrite, the newly rewritten request goes back through the rules again and the same rule is triggered. By changing that line's "$1" to "-", no rewrite happens and so the rewriting process does not start over again with the same URL.

It's possible that there's a difference in how apache 2.2 and 2.4 handle this situation of only-difference-is-a-slash-in-front and that's why the default rules provided by WordPress aren't working perfectly.

Access-Control-Allow-Origin Multiple Origin Domains?

The answer seems to be to use the header more than once. That is, rather than sending

Access-Control-Allow-Origin: http://domain1.example, http://domain2.example, http://domain3.example

send

Access-Control-Allow-Origin: http://domain1.example
Access-Control-Allow-Origin: http://domain2.example
Access-Control-Allow-Origin: http://domain3.example

On Apache, you can do this in an httpd.conf <VirtualHost> section or .htaccess file using mod_headers and this syntax:

Header add Access-Control-Allow-Origin "http://domain1.example"
Header add Access-Control-Allow-Origin "http://domain2.example"
Header add Access-Control-Allow-Origin "http://domain3.example"

The trick is to use add rather than append as the first argument.

htaccess redirect all pages to single page

Add this for pages not currently on your site...

ErrorDocument 404 http://example.com/

Along with your Redirect 301 / http://www.thenewdomain.com/ that should cover all the bases...

Good luck!

htaccess Access-Control-Allow-Origin

Make sure you don't have a redirect happening. This can happen if you don't include the trailing slash in the URL.

See this answer for more detail – https://stackoverflow.com/a/27872891/614524

.htaccess redirect www to non-www with SSL/HTTPS

Your condition will never be true, because its like "if (a == a + b)".

I'd try the following:

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.(.*)
RewriteRule ^.*$ https://%1/$1 [R=301,L]

This will capture "google.com" from "www.google.com" into %1, the rest in $1 and after that combining the 2, when HTTP_HOST starts with www (with or without https).

Redirect all to index.php using htaccess

Silly answer but if you can't figure out why its not redirecting check that the following is enabled for the web folder ..

AllowOverride All

This will enable you to run htaccess which must be running! (there are alternatives but not on will cause problems https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/core.html#allowoverride)

How to Set AllowOverride all

As other users explained here about the usage of allowoveride directive, which is used to give permission to .htaccess usage. one thing I want to point out that never use allowoverride all if other users have access to write .htaccess instead use allowoveride as to permit certain modules.

Such as AllowOverride AuthConfig mod_rewrite Instead of

AllowOverride All

Because module like mod_mime can render your server side files as plain text.

Tips for debugging .htaccess rewrite rules

If you're creating redirections, test with curl to avoid browser caching issues. Use -I to fetch http headers only. Use -L to follow all redirections.

Make index.html default, but allow index.php to be visited if typed in

If you're using WordPress, there is now a filter hook to resolve this:

remove_filter('template_redirect', 'redirect_canonical'); 

(Put this in your theme's functions.php)

This tells WordPress to not redirect index.php back to the root page, but to sit where it is. That way, index.html can be assigned to be the default page in .htaccess and can work alongside index.php.

htaccess <Directory> deny from all

You can use from root directory:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^(?:system)\b.* /403.html

Or:

RewriteRule ^(?:system)\b.* /403.php # with header('HTTP/1.0 403 Forbidden');

How to deny access to a file in .htaccess

I don't believe the currently accepted answer is correct. For example, I have the following .htaccess file in the root of a virtual server (apache 2.4):

<Files "reminder.php">
require all denied
require host localhost
require ip 127.0.0.1
require ip xxx.yyy.zzz.aaa
</Files>

This prevents external access to reminder.php which is in a subdirectory. I have a similar .htaccess file on my Apache 2.2 server with the same effect:

<Files "reminder.php">
        Order Deny,Allow
        Deny from all
        Allow from localhost
        Allow from 127.0.0.1
     Allow from xxx.yyy.zzz.aaa
</Files>

I don't know for sure but I suspect it's the attempt to define the subdirectory specifically in the .htaccess file, viz <Files ./inscription/log.txt> which is causing it to fail. It would be simpler to put the .htaccess file in the same directory as log.txt i.e. in the inscription directory and it will work there.

How to increase Maximum Upload size in cPanel?

In my case it was wp-admin/.user.ini:

post_max_size = 33M
upload_max_filesize = 32M

Deny all, allow only one IP through htaccess

If you want to use mod_rewrite for access control you can use condition like user agent, http referrer, remote addr etc.

Example

RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !=*.*.*.* #you ip address
RewriteRule ^$ - [F]

Redirect non-www to www in .htaccess

Write in .htaccess :)

## Redirect from non-www to www (remove the two lines below to enable)

    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L]

How can I disable mod_security in .htaccess file?

For anyone that simply are looking to bypass the ERROR page to display the content on shared hosting. You might wanna try and use redirect in .htaccess file. If it is say 406 error, on UnoEuro it didn't seem to work simply deactivating the security. So I used this instead:

ErrorDocument 406 /

Then you can always change the error status using PHP. But be aware that in my case doing so means I am opening a door to SQL injections as I am bypassing WAF. So you will need to make sure that you either have your own security measures or enable the security again asap.

Deny access to one specific folder in .htaccess

You can create a .htaccess file for the folder, wich should have denied access with

Deny from  all

or you can redirect to a custom 404 page

Redirect /includes/ 404.html

enable cors in .htaccess

Since I had everything being forwarded to index.php anyway I thought I would try setting the headers in PHP instead of the .htaccess file and it worked! YAY! Here's what I added to index.php for anyone else having this problem.

// Allow from any origin
if (isset($_SERVER['HTTP_ORIGIN'])) {
    // should do a check here to match $_SERVER['HTTP_ORIGIN'] to a
    // whitelist of safe domains
    header("Access-Control-Allow-Origin: {$_SERVER['HTTP_ORIGIN']}");
    header('Access-Control-Allow-Credentials: true');
    header('Access-Control-Max-Age: 86400');    // cache for 1 day
}
// Access-Control headers are received during OPTIONS requests
if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == 'OPTIONS') {

    if (isset($_SERVER['HTTP_ACCESS_CONTROL_REQUEST_METHOD']))
        header("Access-Control-Allow-Methods: GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, OPTIONS");         

    if (isset($_SERVER['HTTP_ACCESS_CONTROL_REQUEST_HEADERS']))
        header("Access-Control-Allow-Headers: {$_SERVER['HTTP_ACCESS_CONTROL_REQUEST_HEADERS']}");

}

credit goes to slashingweapon for his answer on this question

Because I'm using Slim I added this route so that OPTIONS requests get a HTTP 200 response

// return HTTP 200 for HTTP OPTIONS requests
$app->map('/:x+', function($x) {
    http_response_code(200);
})->via('OPTIONS');

Rewrite URL after redirecting 404 error htaccess

Try this in your .htaccess:

.htaccess

ErrorDocument 404 http://example.com/404/
ErrorDocument 500 http://example.com/500/
# or map them to one error document:
# ErrorDocument 404 /pages/errors/error_redirect.php
# ErrorDocument 500 /pages/errors/error_redirect.php

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/404/$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /pages/errors/404.php [L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/500/$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /pages/errors/500.php [L]

# or map them to one error document:
#RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/404/$ [OR]
#RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/500/$
#RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /pages/errors/error_redirect.php [L]

The ErrorDocument redirects all 404s to a specific URL, all 500s to another url (replace with your domain).

The Rewrite rules map that URL to your actual 404.php script. The RewriteCond regular expressions can be made more generic if you want, but I think you have to explicitly define all ErrorDocument codes you want to override.

Local Redirect:

Change .htaccess ErrorDocument to a file that exists (must exist, or you'll get an error):

ErrorDocument 404 /pages/errors/404_redirect.php

404_redirect.php

<?php
   header('Location: /404/');
   exit;
?>

Redirect based on error number

Looks like you'll need to specify an ErrorDocument line in .htaccess for every error you want to redirect (see: Apache ErrorDocument and Apache Custom Error). The .htaccess example above has multiple examples in it. You can use the following as the generic redirect script to replace 404_redirect.php above.

error_redirect.php

<?php
   $error_url = $_SERVER["REDIRECT_STATUS"] . '/';
   $error_path = $error_url . '.php';

   if ( ! file_exists($error_path)) {
      // this is the default error if a specific error page is not found
      $error_url = '404/';
   }

   header('Location: ' . $error_url);
   exit;
?>

CodeIgniter htaccess and URL rewrite issues

Open the application/config/config.php file and make the changes given below,

  1. set your base url by replacing the value of $config['base_url'], as $config['base_url'] = 'http://localhost/YOUR_PROJECT_DIR_NAME';

  2. make the $config['index_page'] configuration to empty as $config['index_page'] = '';

Create new .htaccess file in project root folder and use the given settings, RewriteEngine on RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|resources|assets|images|js|css|uploads|favicon.png|favicon.ico|robots\.txt) RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L,QSA]

Restart the server, open the project and you'll be good to go.

Leverage browser caching, how on apache or .htaccess?

This is what I use to control headers/caching, I'm not an Apache pro, so let me know if there is room for improvement, but I know that this has been working well on all of my sites for some time now.

Mod_expires

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_expires.html

This module controls the setting of the Expires HTTP header and the max-age directive of the Cache-Control HTTP header in server responses. The expiration date can set to be relative to either the time the source file was last modified, or to the time of the client access.

These HTTP headers are an instruction to the client about the document's validity and persistence. If cached, the document may be fetched from the cache rather than from the source until this time has passed. After that, the cache copy is considered "expired" and invalid, and a new copy must be obtained from the source.

# BEGIN Expires
<ifModule mod_expires.c>
ExpiresActive On
ExpiresDefault "access plus 1 seconds"
ExpiresByType text/html "access plus 1 seconds"
ExpiresByType image/gif "access plus 2592000 seconds"
ExpiresByType image/jpeg "access plus 2592000 seconds"
ExpiresByType image/png "access plus 2592000 seconds"
ExpiresByType text/css "access plus 604800 seconds"
ExpiresByType text/javascript "access plus 216000 seconds"
ExpiresByType application/x-javascript "access plus 216000 seconds"
</ifModule>
# END Expires

Mod_headers

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_headers.html

This module provides directives to control and modify HTTP request and response headers. Headers can be merged, replaced or removed.

# BEGIN Caching
<ifModule mod_headers.c>
<filesMatch "\.(ico|pdf|flv|jpg|jpeg|png|gif|swf)$">

.htaccess not working on localhost with XAMPP

For windows user, make sure to closely look at this section.

RewriteRule ^properties$ /property_available.php/$1 [NC,QSA]

As said in Apache documentation :

The mod_rewrite module uses a rule-based rewriting engine, based on a PCRE regular-expression parser, to rewrite requested URLs on the fly.

So ^properties$ means Apache will only look for URL that has exact match with properties. You might want to try this code.

RewriteRule properties /property_available.php/$1 [NC,QSA]

So Apache will see the URL that has properties and rewrite it to /property_available.php/

How do I manually create a file with a . (dot) prefix in Windows? For example, .htaccess

As an addition, if have Sublime Text installed in your development computer, you can drag the file to your opened Sublime Text window, right click the filename -> rename and enter whatever name even without any extension. This worked for me.

Forbidden You don't have permission to access / on this server

The problem lies in https.conf file!

# Virtual hosts
# Include conf/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf

The error occurs when hash(#) is removed or messed around with. These two lines should appear as shown above.

How can I get Apache gzip compression to work?

Enable compression via .htaccess

For most people reading this, compression is enabled by adding some code to a file called .htaccess on their web host/server. This means going to the file manager (or wherever you go to add or upload files) on your webhost.

The .htaccess file controls many important things for your site.

The code below should be added to your .htaccess file...

<ifModule mod_gzip.c>
mod_gzip_on Yes
mod_gzip_dechunk Yes
mod_gzip_item_include file .(html?|txt|css|js|php|pl)$
mod_gzip_item_include handler ^cgi-script$
mod_gzip_item_include mime ^text/.*
mod_gzip_item_include mime ^application/x-javascript.*
mod_gzip_item_exclude mime ^image/.*
mod_gzip_item_exclude rspheader ^Content-Encoding:.*gzip.*
</ifModule>

Save the .htaccess file and then refresh your webpage.

Check to see if your compression is working using the Gzip compression tool.

urlencoded Forward slash is breaking URL

Apache denies all URLs with %2F in the path part, for security reasons: scripts can't normally (ie. without rewriting) tell the difference between %2F and / due to the PATH_INFO environment variable being automatically URL-decoded (which is stupid, but a long-standing part of the CGI specification so there's nothing can be done about it).

You can turn this feature off using the AllowEncodedSlashes directive, but note that other web servers will still disallow it (with no option to turn that off), and that other characters may also be taboo (eg. %5C), and that %00 in particular will always be blocked by both Apache and IIS. So if your application relied on being able to have %2F or other characters in a path part you'd be limiting your compatibility/deployment options.

I am using urlencode() while preparing the search URL

You should use rawurlencode(), not urlencode() for escaping path parts. urlencode() is misnamed, it is actually for application/x-www-form-urlencoded data such as in the query string or the body of a POST request, and not for other parts of the URL.

The difference is that + doesn't mean space in path parts. rawurlencode() will correctly produce %20 instead, which will work both in form-encoded data and other parts of the URL.

How to use .htaccess in WAMP Server?

How to prevent http file caching in Apache httpd (MAMP)

Without mod_expires it will be harder to set expiration headers on your files. For anything generated you can certainly set some default headers on the answer, doing the job of mod_expires like that:

<?php header('Expires: '.gmdate('D, d M Y H:i:s \G\M\T', time() + 3600)); ?>

(taken from: Stack Overflow answer from @brianegge, where the mod_expires solution is also explained)

Now this won't work for static files, like your javascript files. As for static files there is only apache (without any expiration module) between the browser and the source file. To prevent caching of javascript files, which is done on your browser, you can use a random token at the end of the js url, something like ?rd=45642111, so the url looks like:

<script type="texte/javascript" src="my/url/myjs.js?rd=4221159546">

If this url on the page is generated by a PHP file you can simply add the random part with PHP. This way of randomizing url by simply appending random query string parameters is the base thing upôn no-cache setting of ajax jQuery request for example. The browser will never consider 2 url having different query strings to be the same, and will never use the cached version.

EDIT

Note that you should alos test mod_headers. If you have mod_headers you can maybe set the Expires headers directly with the Header keyword.

Laravel 5 – Remove Public from URL

What does $1 [QSA,L] mean in my .htaccess file?

If the following conditions are true, then rewrite the URL:
If the requested filename is not a directory,

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

and if the requested filename is not a regular file that exists,

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f

and if the requested filename is not a symbolic link,

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l

then rewrite the URL in the following way:
Take the whole request filename and provide it as the value of a "url" query parameter to index.php. Append any query string from the original URL as further query parameters (QSA), and stop processing this .htaccess file (L).

RewriteRule ^(.+)$ index.php?url=$1 [QSA,L]

Apache docs #flag_qsa

Another Example:

RewriteRule "/pages/(.+)" "/page.php?page=$1" [QSA]

With the [QSA] flag, a request for

/pages/123?one=two

will be mapped to

/page.php?page=123&one=two

Deny direct access to all .php files except index.php

Allow only 2 ip , all other will block

.htaccess: where is located when not in www base dir

. (dot) files are hidden by default on Unix/Linux systems. Most likely, if you know they are .htaccess files, then they are probably in the root folder for the website.

If you are using a command line (terminal) to access, then they will only show up if you use:

ls -a

If you are using a GUI application, look for a setting to "show hidden files" or something similar.

If you still have no luck, and you are on a terminal, you can execute these commands to search the whole system (may take some time):

cd /
find . -name ".htaccess"

This will list out any files it finds with that name.

How does RewriteBase work in .htaccess

I believe this excerpt from the Apache documentation, complements well the previous answers :

This directive is required when you use a relative path in a substitution in per-directory (htaccess) context unless either of the following conditions are true:

  • The original request, and the substitution, are underneath the DocumentRoot (as opposed to reachable by other means, such as Alias).

  • The filesystem path to the directory containing the RewriteRule, suffixed by the relative substitution is also valid as a URL path on the server (this is rare).

As previously mentioned, in other contexts, it is only useful to make your rule shorter. Moreover, also as previously mentioned, you can achieve the same thing by placing the htaccess file in the subdirectory.

How to remove .html from URL?

Good question, but it seems to have confused people. The answers are almost equally divided between those who thought Dave (the OP) was saving his HTML pages without the .html extension, and those who thought he was saving them as normal (with .html), but wanting the URL to show up without. While the question could have been worded a little better, I think it’s clear what he meant. If he was saving pages without .html, his two question (‘how to remove .html') and (how to ‘redirect any url with .html’) would be exactly the same question! So that interpretation doesn’t make much sense. Also, his first comment (about avoiding an infinite loop) and his own answer seem to confirm this.

So let’s start by rephrasing the question and breaking down the task. We want to accomplish two things:

  1. Visibly remove the .html if it’s part of the requested URL (e.g. /page.html)
  2. Point the cropped URL (e.g. /page) back to the actual file (/page.html).

There’s nothing difficult about doing either of these things. (We could achieve the second one simply by enabling MultiViews.) The challenge here is doing them both without creating an infinite loop.

Dave’s own answer got the job done, but it’s pretty convoluted and not at all portable. (Sorry Dave.) Lukasz Habrzyk seems to have cleaned up Anmol’s answer, and finally Amit Verma improved on them both. However, none of them explained how their solutions solved the fundamental problem—how to avoid an infinite loop. As I understand it, they work because THE_REQUEST variable holds the original request from the browser. As such, the condition (RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST}) only gets triggered once. Since it doesn’t get triggered upon a rewrite, you avoid the infinite loop scenario. But then you're dealing with the full HTTP request—GET, HTTP and all—which partly explains some of the uglier regex examples on this page.

I’m going to offer one more approach, which I think is easier to understand. I hope this helps future readers understand the code they’re using, rather than just copying and pasting code they barely understand and hoping for the best.

RewriteEngine on

# Remove .html (or htm) from visible URL (permanent redirect)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/(.+)\.html?$ [nocase]
RewriteRule ^ /%1 [L,R=301]

# Quietly point back to the HTML file (temporary/undefined redirect):
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.html -f
RewriteRule ^ %{REQUEST_URI}.html [END]

Let’s break it down…

The first rule is pretty simple. The condition matches any URL ending in .html (or .htm) and redirects to the URL without the filename extension. It's a permanent redirect to indicate that the cropped URL is the canonical one.

The second rule is simple too. The first condition will only pass if the requested filename is not a valid directory (!-d). The second will only pass if the filename refers to a valid file (-f) with the .html extension added. If both conditions pass, the rewrite rule simply adds ‘.html’ to the filename. And then the magic happens… [END]. Yep, that’s all it takes to prevent an infinite loop. The Apache RewriteRule Flags documentation explains it:

Using the [END] flag terminates not only the current round of rewrite processing (like [L]) but also prevents any subsequent rewrite processing from occurring in per-directory (htaccess) context.

Header set Access-Control-Allow-Origin in .htaccess doesn't work

If anyone else is trying this, the most upvoted answer should work. However, if you are having issues it could be possible the browser has cached the REQUEST. To confirm append a query string.

Server unable to read htaccess file, denying access to be safe

Ok, I recently met the same issue too while working on a WordPress installation using apache2 on the server on Ubuntu 20.04.

I experienced this issue when I changed file ownership to another user:

Here's what worked for me:

$ sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/YOUR-DIRECTORY

Here's a bit more context into the issue:

The above command gives ownership of all the files [in that folder] to the www-data user and group. This is the user that the Apache web server runs as, and Apache will need to be able to read and write WordPress files in order to serve the website and perform automatic updates.

Be sure to point to your server’s relevant directory (replace YOUR-DIRECTORY with your actual folder).

.htaccess File Options -Indexes on Subdirectories

The correct answer is

Options -Indexes

AllowOverride All

https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/howto/htaccess.html

.htaccess files (or "distributed configuration files") provide a way to make configuration changes on a per-directory basis. A file, containing one or more configuration directives, is placed in a particular document directory, and the directives apply to that directory, and all subdirectories thereof.

Force SSL/https using .htaccess and mod_rewrite

I'd just like to point out that Apache has the worst inheritance rules when using multiple .htaccess files across directory depths. Two key pitfalls:

  • Only the rules contained in the deepest .htaccess file will be performed by default. You must specify the RewriteOptions InheritDownBefore directive (or similar) to change this. (see question)
  • The pattern is applied to the file path relative to the subdirectory and not the upper directory containing the .htaccess file with the given rule. (see discussion)

This means the suggested global solution on the Apache Wiki does not work if you use any other .htaccess files in subdirectories. I wrote a modified version that does:

RewriteEngine On
# This will enable the Rewrite capabilities

RewriteOptions InheritDownBefore
# This prevents the rule from being overrided by .htaccess files in subdirectories.

RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
# This checks to make sure the connection is not already HTTPS

RewriteRule ^ https://%{SERVER_NAME}%{REQUEST_URI} [QSA,R,L]
# This rule will redirect users from their original location, to the same location but using HTTPS.
# i.e.  http://www.example.com/foo/ to https://www.example.com/foo/

Remove .php extension with .htaccess

Gumbo's answer in the Stack Overflow question How to hide the .html extension with Apache mod_rewrite should work fine.

Re 1) Change the .html to .php

Re a.) Yup, that's possible, just add #tab to the URL.

Re b.) That's possible using QSA (Query String Append), see below.

This should also work in a sub-directory path:

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php -f
RewriteRule !.*\.php$ %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php [QSA,L]

Using .htaccess to make all .html pages to run as .php files?

Create a .htaccess file at the root of your website and add this line:

[Apache2 @ Ubuntu/Debian: use this directive]

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

Or, from comment below:

AddType application/x-httpd-php5 .html .htm

If your are running PHP as CGI (probably not the case), you should write instead:

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

htaccess redirect to https://www

Michals answer worked for me, albeit with one small modification:

Problem:

when you have a single site security certificate, a browser that tries to access your page without https:// www. (or whichever domain your certificate covers) will display an ugly red warning screen before it even gets to receive the redirect to the safe and correct https page.

Solution

First use the redirect to the www (or whichever domain is covered by your certificate) and only then do the https redirect. This will ensure that your users are not confronted with any error because your browser sees a certificate that doesn't cover the current url.

#First rewrite any request to the wrong domain to use the correct one (here www.)
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]

#Now, rewrite to HTTPS:
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]

HTTP authentication logout via PHP

I needed to reset .htaccess authorization so I used this:

<?php
if (!isset($_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_USER'])) {
    header('WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm="My Realm"');
    header('HTTP/1.0 401 Unauthorized');
    echo 'Text to send if user hits Cancel button';
    exit;
}
?>

Found it here : http://php.net/manual/en/features.http-auth.php

Go figure.

A number of solutions reside on that page and it even notes at the bottom: Lynx, doesn't clear the auth like other browsers ;)

I tested it out on my installed browsers and once closed, each browser seems like it consistently requires reauth on reentry.

.htaccess rewrite to redirect root URL to subdirectory

I don't understand your question...

If you want to redirect every request to a subfolder:

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ shop/$1 [L,QSA]

http://www.example.com/* -> wwwroot/store/*

If you want to redirect to a subfolder which has the domain name

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ([^\.]+\.[^\.]+)$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ %1/$1 [L,QSA]

http://www.example.com/* -> wwwroot/example.com/*

Use .htaccess to redirect HTTP to HTTPs

easyest way to redirect http to https in wordpress it to modify site_url and home from http://example.com to https://example.com. Wordpress will do the redirection. ( that is why you get "too many redirects" error, wordpress is redirecting to http while .htaccess will redirect to https )

URL rewriting with PHP

PHP is not what you are looking for, check out mod_rewrite

Wordpress 403/404 Errors: You don't have permission to access /wp-admin/themes.php on this server

Try to disable ModSecurity from your cPanel. Log into your cPanel. Find the category "Security". There you can find ModSecurity link.Click on it and disable it for the domain you are facing the 403 error.

Some 403 errors can be solved by this method too. Go to the wordpress dashboard, settings>permalink and just click save.

Hope this helped. :)

How to hide .php extension in .htaccess

The other option for using PHP scripts sans extension is

Options +MultiViews

Or even just following in the directories .htaccess:

The latter allows having all filenames without extension script being treated as PHP scripts. While MultiViews makes the webserver look for alternatives, when just the basename is provided (there's a performance hit with that however).

http://spanibox.com/css/app.css works but http://spanibox.com/css/custom.css does not. I find this very weird.

JavaScript global event mechanism

Does this help you:

<script type="text/javascript">
window.onerror = function() {
    alert("Error caught");
};

xxx();
</script>

I'm not sure how it handles Flash errors though...

Update: it doesn't work in Opera, but I'm hacking Dragonfly right now to see what it gets. Suggestion about hacking Dragonfly came from this question:

Datagrid binding in WPF

PLEASE do not use object as a class name:

public class MyObject //better to choose an appropriate name
{
    string id;
    DateTime date;
    public string ID
    {
       get { return id; }
       set { id = value; }
    }
    public DateTime Date
    {
       get { return date; }
       set { date = value; }
    }
}

You should implement INotifyPropertyChanged for this class and of course call it on the Property setter. Otherwise changes are not reflected in your ui.

Your Viewmodel class/ dialogbox class should have a Property of your MyObject list. ObservableCollection<MyObject> is the way to go:

public ObservableCollection<MyObject> MyList
{
     get...
     set...
}

In your xaml you should set the Itemssource to your collection of MyObject. (the Datacontext have to be your dialogbox class!)

<DataGrid ItemsSource="{Binding Source=MyList}"  AutoGenerateColumns="False">
   <DataGrid.Columns>                
     <DataGridTextColumn Header="ID" Binding="{Binding ID}"/>
     <DataGridTextColumn Header="Date" Binding="{Binding Date}"/>
   </DataGrid.Columns>
</DataGrid>

MySQL DELETE FROM with subquery as condition

If you want to do this with 2 queries, you can always do something similar to this:

1) grab ids from the table with:

SELECT group_concat(id) as csv_result FROM your_table WHERE whatever = 'test' ...

Then copy result with mouse/keyboard or programming language to XXX below:

2) DELETE FROM your_table WHERE id IN ( XXX )

Maybe you could do this in one query, but this is what I prefer.

Is the MIME type 'image/jpg' the same as 'image/jpeg'?

The important thing to note here is that the mime type is not the same as the file extension. Sometimes, however, they have the same value.

https://www.iana.org/assignments/media-types/media-types.xhtml includes a list of registered Mime types, though there is nothing stopping you from making up your own, as long as you are at both the sending and the receiving end. Here is where Microsoft comes in to the picture.

Where there is a lot of confusion is the fact that operating systems have their own way of identifying file types by using the tail end of the file name, referred to as the extension. In modern operating systems, the whole name is one long string, but in more primitive operating systems, it is treated as a separate attribute.

The OS which caused the confusion is MSDOS, which had limited the extension to 3 characters. This limitation is inherited to this day in devices, such as SD cards, which still store data in the same way.

One side effect of this limitation is that some file extensions, such as .gif match their Mime Type, image/gif, while others are compromised. This includes image/jpeg whose extension is shortened to .jpg. Even in modern Windows, where the limitation is lifted, Microsoft never let the past go, and so the file extension is still the shortened version.

Given that that:

  1. File Extensions are not File Types
  2. Historically, some operating systems had serious file name limitations
  3. Some operating systems will just go ahead and make up their own rules

The short answer is:

  • Technically, there is no such thing as image/jpg, so the answer is that it is not the same as image/jpeg
  • That won’t stop some operating systems and software from treating it as if it is the same

While we’re at it …

Legacy versions of Internet Explorer took the liberty of uploading jpeg files with the Mime Type of image/pjpeg, which, of course, just means more work for everybody else. They also uploaded png files as image/x-png.

Converting String to Int with Swift

Use this:

// get the values from text boxes
    let a:Double = firstText.text.bridgeToObjectiveC().doubleValue
    let b:Double = secondText.text.bridgeToObjectiveC().doubleValue

//  we checking against 0.0, because above function return 0.0 if it gets failed to convert
    if (a != 0.0) && (b != 0.0) {
        var ans = a + b
        answerLabel.text = "Answer is \(ans)"
    } else {
        answerLabel.text = "Input values are not numberic"
    }

OR

Make your UITextField KeyboardType as DecimalTab from your XIB or storyboard, and remove any if condition for doing any calculation, ie.

var ans = a + b
answerLabel.text = "Answer is \(ans)"

Because keyboard type is DecimalPad there is no chance to enter other 0-9 or .

Hope this help !!

What is the difference between `Enum.name()` and `Enum.toString()`?

The main difference between name() and toString() is that name() is a final method, so it cannot be overridden. The toString() method returns the same value that name() does by default, but toString() can be overridden by subclasses of Enum.

Therefore, if you need the name of the field itself, use name(). If you need a string representation of the value of the field, use toString().

For instance:

public enum WeekDay {
    MONDAY, TUESDAY, WEDNESDAY, THURSDAY, FRIDAY;

    public String toString() {
        return name().charAt(0) + name().substring(1).toLowerCase();
    }
}

In this example, WeekDay.MONDAY.name() returns "MONDAY", and WeekDay.MONDAY.toString() returns "Monday".

WeekDay.valueOf(WeekDay.MONDAY.name()) returns WeekDay.MONDAY, but WeekDay.valueOf(WeekDay.MONDAY.toString()) throws an IllegalArgumentException.

How to access to the parent object in c#

You could maybe add a method to your Production object called 'SetPowerRating(int)' which sets a property in Production, and call this in your Meter object before using the property in the Production object?

PHP array delete by value (not key)

If you don't know its key it means it doesn't matter.

You could place the value as the key, it means it will instantly find the value. Better than using searching in all elements over and over again.

$messages=array();   
$messages[312] = 312;    
$messages[401] = 401;   
$messages[1599] = 1599;   
$messages[3] = 3;    

unset($messages[3]); // no search needed

Unable to open debugger port in IntelliJ IDEA

  1. Check "Run" configuration to see which port it is using (8081).
  2. Find all the other processes using that port lsof -t -i :8081
  3. Kill the processes on that port. kill PROCESS_ID
  4. Run Tomcat in Debug mode.

In my case, I wasted so much time on changing debugger port but it was not the issue. Since tomcat was not able to run on the port I chose in Run configuration, I was not able to debug my service.

Android charting libraries

If you're looking for something more straight forward to implement (and it doesn't include pie/donut charts) then I recommend WilliamChart. Specially if motion takes an important role in your app design. In other hand if you want featured charts, then go for MPAndroidChart.

How do I update an entity using spring-data-jpa?

Specifically how do I tell spring-data-jpa that users that have the same username and firstname are actually EQUAL and that it is supposed to update the entity. Overriding equals did not work.

For this particular purpose one can introduce a composite key like this:

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `test`.`user` (
  `username` VARCHAR(45) NOT NULL,
  `firstname` VARCHAR(45) NOT NULL,
  `description` VARCHAR(45) NOT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY (`username`, `firstname`))

Mapping:

@Embeddable
public class UserKey implements Serializable {
    protected String username;
    protected String firstname;

    public UserKey() {}

    public UserKey(String username, String firstname) {
        this.username = username;
        this.firstname = firstname;
    }
    // equals, hashCode
}

Here is how to use it:

@Entity
public class UserEntity implements Serializable {
    @EmbeddedId
    private UserKey primaryKey;

    private String description;

    //...
}

JpaRepository would look like this:

public interface UserEntityRepository extends JpaRepository<UserEntity, UserKey>

Then, you could use the following idiom: accept DTO with user info, extract name and firstname and create UserKey, then create a UserEntity with this composite key and then invoke Spring Data save() which should sort everything out for you.

Whitespaces in java

If you want to consider a regular expression based way of doing it

if(text.split("\\s").length > 1){
    //text contains whitespace
}

How to select the last record from MySQL table using SQL syntax

I have used the following two:

1 - select id from table_name where id = (select MAX(id) from table_name)
2 - select id from table_name order by id desc limit 0, 1

Java get month string from integer

DateFormatSymbols class provides methods for our ease use.

To get short month strings. For example: "Jan", "Feb", etc.

getShortMonths()

To get month strings. For example: "January", "February", etc.

getMonths()

Sample code to return month string in mmm format,

private static String getShortMonthFromNumber(int month){
    if(month<0 || month>11){
        return "";
    }
    return new DateFormatSymbols().getShortMonths()[month];
}

What does "where T : class, new()" mean?

That is a constraint on the generic parameter T. It must be a class (reference type) and must have a public parameter-less default constructor.

That means T can't be an int, float, double, DateTime or any other struct (value type).

It could be a string, or any other custom reference type, as long as it has a default or parameter-less constructor.

What is the way of declaring an array in JavaScript?

There are a number of ways to create arrays.

The traditional way of declaring and initializing an array looks like this:

var a = new Array(5); // declare an array "a", of size 5
a = [0, 0, 0, 0, 0];  // initialize each of the array's elements to 0

Or...

// declare and initialize an array in a single statement
var a = new Array(0, 0, 0, 0, 0); 

Make a Bash alias that takes a parameter?

Bash alias absolutely does accept parameters. I just added an alias to create a new react app which accepts the app name as a parameter. Here's my process:

Open the bash_profile for editing in nano

nano /.bash_profile

Add your aliases, one per line:

alias gita='git add .'
alias gitc='git commit -m "$@"'
alias gitpom='git push origin master'
alias creact='npx create-react-app "$@"'

note: the "$@" accepts parameters passed in like "creact my-new-app"

Save and exit nano editor

ctrl+o to to write (hit enter); ctrl+x to exit

Tell terminal to use the new aliases in .bash_profile

source /.bash_profile

That's it! You can now use your new aliases

How to change the plot line color from blue to black?

The usual way to set the line color in matplotlib is to specify it in the plot command. This can either be done by a string after the data, e.g. "r-" for a red line, or by explicitely stating the color argument.

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

plt.plot([1,2,3], [2,3,1], "r-") # red line
plt.plot([1,2,3], [5,5,3], color="blue") # blue line

plt.show()

See also the plot command's documentation.

In case you already have a line with a certain color, you can change that with the lines2D.set_color() method.

line, = plt.plot([1,2,3], [4,5,3], color="blue")
line.set_color("black")


Setting the color of a line in a pandas plot is also best done at the point of creating the plot:

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import pandas as pd

df = pd.DataFrame({ "x" : [1,2,3,5], "y" : [3,5,2,6]})
df.plot("x", "y", color="r") #plot red line

plt.show()

If you want to change this color later on, you can do so by

plt.gca().get_lines()[0].set_color("black")

This will get you the first (possibly the only) line of the current active axes.
In case you have more axes in the plot, you could loop through them

for ax in plt.gcf().axes:
    ax.get_lines()[0].set_color("black")

and if you have more lines you can loop over them as well.

How to deploy a Java Web Application (.war) on tomcat?

Note that you can deploy remotely using HTTP.

http://localhost:8080/manager/deploy

Upload the web application archive (WAR) file that is specified as the request data in this HTTP PUT request, install it into the appBase directory of our corresponding virtual host, and start it using the war file name without the .war extension as the path. The application can later be undeployed (and the corresponding application directory removed) by use of the /undeploy. To deploy the ROOT web application (the application with a context path of "/"), name the war ROOT.war.

and if you're using Ant you can do this using Tomcat Ant tasks (perhaps following a successful build).

To determine which path you then hit on your browser, you need to know the port Tomcat is running on, the context and your servlet path. See here for more details.

Set default format of datetimepicker as dd-MM-yyyy

You could easily use:

label1.Text = dateTimePicker1.Value.Date.ToString("dd/MM/yyyy")

and if you want to change '/' or '-', just add this:

label1.Text = label1.Text.Replace(".", "-")

More info about DateTimePicker.CustomFormat Property: Link

How do you get the "object reference" of an object in java when toString() and hashCode() have been overridden?

Double equals == will always check based on object identity, regardless of the objects' implementation of hashCode or equals. Of course - make sure the object references you are comparing are volatile (in a 1.5+ JVM).

If you really must have the original Object toString result (although it's not the best solution for your example use-case), the Commons Lang library has a method ObjectUtils.identityToString(Object) that will do what you want. From the JavaDoc:

public static java.lang.String identityToString(java.lang.Object object)

Gets the toString that would be produced by Object if a class did not override toString itself. null will return null.

 ObjectUtils.identityToString(null)         = null
 ObjectUtils.identityToString("")           = "java.lang.String@1e23"
 ObjectUtils.identityToString(Boolean.TRUE) = "java.lang.Boolean@7fa"

Which loop is faster, while or for?

In C#, the For loop is slightly faster.

For loop average about 2.95 to 3.02 ms.

The While loop averaged about 3.05 to 3.37 ms.

Quick little console app to prove:

 class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            int max = 1000000000;
            Stopwatch stopWatch = new Stopwatch();

            if (args.Length == 1 && args[0].ToString() == "While")
            {
                Console.WriteLine("While Loop: ");
                stopWatch.Start();
                WhileLoop(max);
                stopWatch.Stop();
                DisplayElapsedTime(stopWatch.Elapsed);
            }
            else
            {
                Console.WriteLine("For Loop: ");
                stopWatch.Start();
                ForLoop(max);
                stopWatch.Stop();
                DisplayElapsedTime(stopWatch.Elapsed);
            }
        }

        private static void WhileLoop(int max)
        {
            int i = 0;
            while (i <= max)
            {
                //Console.WriteLine(i);
                i++;
            };
        }

        private static void ForLoop(int max)
        {
            for (int i = 0; i <= max; i++)
            {
                //Console.WriteLine(i);
            }
        }

        private static void DisplayElapsedTime(TimeSpan ts)
        {
            // Format and display the TimeSpan value.
            string elapsedTime = String.Format("{0:00}:{1:00}:{2:00}.{3:00}",
                ts.Hours, ts.Minutes, ts.Seconds,
                ts.Milliseconds / 10);
            Console.WriteLine(elapsedTime, "RunTime");
        }
    }

Determining the version of Java SDK on the Mac

Open a terminal and type: java -version, or javac -version.

If you have all the latest updates for Snow Leopard, you should be running JDK 1.6.0_20 at this moment (the same as Oracle's current JDK version).

How to iterate through an ArrayList of Objects of ArrayList of Objects?

Edit:

Well, he edited his post.

If an Object inherits Iterable, you are given the ability to use the for-each loop as such:

for(Object object : objectListVar) {
     //code here
}

So in your case, if you wanted to update your Guns and their Bullets:

for(Gun g : guns) {
     //invoke any methods of each gun
     ArrayList<Bullet> bullets = g.getBullets()
     for(Bullet b : bullets) {
          System.out.println("X: " + b.getX() + ", Y: " + b.getY());
          //update, check for collisions, etc
     }
}

First get your third Gun object:

Gun g = gunList.get(2);

Then iterate over the third gun's bullets:

ArrayList<Bullet> bullets = g.getBullets();

for(Bullet b : bullets) {
     //necessary code here
}

Image height and width not working?

You must write

<img src="theSource" style="width:30px;height:30px;" />

Inline styling will always take precedence over CSS styling. The width and height attributes are being overridden by your stylesheet, so you need to switch to this format.

ASP.NET MVC Yes/No Radio Buttons with Strongly Bound Model MVC

Building slightly off Ben's answer, I added attributes for the ID so I could use labels.

<%: Html.Label("isBlahYes", "Yes")%><%= Html.RadioButtonFor(model => model.blah, true, new { @id = "isBlahYes" })%>
<%: Html.Label("isBlahNo", "No")%><%= Html.RadioButtonFor(model => model.blah, false, new { @id = "isBlahNo" })%>

I hope this helps.

Regex to get NUMBER only from String

\d+

\d represents any digit, + for one or more. If you want to catch negative numbers as well you can use -?\d+.

Note that as a string, it should be represented in C# as "\\d+", or @"\d+"

Android: disabling highlight on listView click

How to get $HOME directory of different user in bash script?

This works in Linux. Not sure how it behaves in other *nixes.

  getent passwd "${OTHER_USER}"|cut -d\: -f 6

A regex for version number parsing

Sometimes version numbers might contain alphanumeric minor information (e.g. 1.2.0b or 1.2.0-beta). In this case I am using this regex:

([0-9]{1,4}(\.[0-9a-z]{1,6}){1,5})

Browser can't access/find relative resources like CSS, images and links when calling a Servlet which forwards to a JSP

You must analyse the actual HTML output, for the hint.

By giving the path like this means "from current location", on the other hand if you start with a / that would mean "from the context".

How can I get a list of repositories 'apt-get' is checking?

All I needed was:

cd /etc/apt

deb http://http.kali.org/kali kali-rolling main non-free contrib
deb-src http://http.kali.org/kali kali-rolling main non-free contrib
apt upgrade && update

Source: Kali Network Repositories (/etc/apt/sources.list)

How to select specific form element in jQuery?

It isn't valid to have the same ID twice, that's why #name only finds the first one.

You can try:

$("#form2 input").val('Hello World!');

Or,

$("#form2 input[name=name]").val('Hello World!');

If you're stuck with an invalid page and want to select all #names, you can use the attribute selector on the id:

$("input[id=name]").val('Hello World!');

LINQ Contains Case Insensitive

Sort & uniq in Linux shell

Nothing, they will produce the same result

Background position, margin-top?

If you mean you want the background image itself to be offset by 50 pixels from the top, like a background margin, then just switch out the top for 50px and you're set.

#thedivstatus {
    background-image: url("imagestatus.gif");
    background-position: right 50px;
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
}

How to hide the Google Invisible reCAPTCHA badge

My solution was to hide the badge, then display it when the user focuses on a form input - thus still adhering to Google's T&Cs.

Note: The reCAPTCHA I was tweaking had been generated by a WordPress plugin, so you may need to wrap the reCAPTCHA with a <div class="inv-recaptcha-holder"> ... </div> yourself.

CSS

.inv-recaptcha-holder {
  visibility: hidden;
  opacity: 0;
  transition: linear opacity 1s;
}

.inv-recaptcha-holder.show {
  visibility: visible;
  opacity: 1;
  transition: linear opacity 1s;
}

jQuery

$(document).ready(function () {
  $('form input, form textarea').on( 'focus', function() {
    $('.inv-recaptcha-holder').addClass( 'show' );
  });
});

Obviously you can change the jQuery selector to target specific forms if necessary.

How to open a different activity on recyclerView item onclick

You can (but don't need to because the ViewHolder class is not static) create field context as is shown below:

private final Context context;

public MyViewHolder(View itemView) {
    super(itemView);
    context = itemView.getContext();
    ...
}

and on your onClick method just call sth like below:

@Override
public void onClick(View v) {          

    final Intent intent;
    switch (getAdapterPostion()){
        case 0:
           intent =  new Intent(context, FirstActivity.class);
           break;

        case 1:
            intent =  new Intent(context, SecondActivity.class);
            break;
           ...
        default:
           intent =  new Intent(context, DefaultActivity.class);
           break;
     }
    context.startActivity(intent);
}

or

@Override
public void onClick(View v) {          

    final Intent intent;
    if (getAdapterPosition() == sth){
       intent =  new Intent(context, OneActivity.class);
    } else if (getPosition() == sth2){
       intent =  new Intent(context, SecondActivity.class);
    } else {
       intent =  new Intent(context, DifferentActivity.class);
    }
    context.startActivity(intent);
}

Getting the client's time zone (and offset) in JavaScript

This would be my solution:


_x000D_
_x000D_
    // For time zone:_x000D_
    const timeZone = /\((.*)\)/.exec(new Date().toString())[1];_x000D_
    _x000D_
    // Offset hours:_x000D_
    const offsetHours = new Date().getTimezoneOffset() / 60;_x000D_
    _x000D_
    console.log(`${timeZone}, ${offsetHours}hrs`);
_x000D_
_x000D_
_x000D_

What's the difference between .NET Core, .NET Framework, and Xamarin?

Xamarin is used for phone applications (both IOS/Android). The .NET Core is used for designing Web applications that can work on both Apache and IIS.

That is the difference in two sentences.

cell format round and display 2 decimal places

Another way is to use FIXED function, you can specify the number of decimal places but it defaults to 2 if the places aren't specified, i.e.

=FIXED(E5,2)

or just

=FIXED(E5)

Setting href attribute at runtime

Small performance test comparision for three solutions:

  1. $(".link").prop('href',"https://example.com")
  2. $(".link").attr('href',"https://example.com")
  3. document.querySelector(".link").href="https://example.com";

enter image description here

Here you can perform test by yourself https://jsperf.com/a-href-js-change


We can read href values in following ways

  1. let href = $(selector).prop('href');
  2. let href = $(selector).attr('href');
  3. let href = document.querySelector(".link").href;

enter image description here

How to iterate through range of Dates in Java?

You can write a class like it(implementing iterator interface) and iterate over it .

public class DateIterator implements Iterator<Date>, Iterable<Date>
{

 private Calendar end = Calendar.getInstance();
 private Calendar current = Calendar.getInstance();

 public DateIterator(Date start, Date end)
 {
     this.end.setTime(end);
     this.end.add(Calendar.DATE, -1);
     this.current.setTime(start);
     this.current.add(Calendar.DATE, -1);
 }

 @Override
 public boolean hasNext()
 {
     return !current.after(end);
 }

 @Override
 public Date next()
 {
     current.add(Calendar.DATE, 1);
     return current.getTime();
 }

 @Override
 public void remove()
 {
     throw new UnsupportedOperationException(
        "Cannot remove");
 }

 @Override
 public Iterator<Date> iterator()
 {
     return this;

}

and use it like :

Iterator<Date> dateIterator = new DateIterator(startDate, endDate);
while(dateIterator.hasNext()){
      Date selectedDate = dateIterator .next();

}

Understanding [TCP ACKed unseen segment] [TCP Previous segment not captured]

Another cause of "TCP ACKed Unseen" is the number of packets that may get dropped in a capture. If I run an unfiltered capture for all traffic on a busy interface, I will sometimes see a large number of 'dropped' packets after stopping tshark.

On the last capture I did when I saw this, I had 2893204 packets captured, but once I hit Ctrl-C, I got a 87581 packets dropped message. Thats a 3% loss, so when wireshark opens the capture, its likely to be missing packets and report "unseen" packets.

As I mentioned, I captured a really busy interface with no capture filter, so tshark had to sort all packets, when I use a capture filter to remove some of the noise, I no longer get the error.

Is Java RegEx case-insensitive?

You can also match case insensitive regexs and make it more readable by using the Pattern.CASE_INSENSITIVE constant like:

Pattern mypattern = Pattern.compile(MYREGEX, Pattern.CASE_INSENSITIVE);
Matcher mymatcher= mypattern.matcher(mystring);

Dump all documents of Elasticsearch

For your case Elasticdump is the perfect answer.
First, you need to download the mapping and then the index

# Install the elasticdump 
npm install elasticdump -g

# Dump the mapping 
elasticdump --input=http://<your_es_server_ip>:9200/index --output=es_mapping.json --type=mapping

# Dump the data
elasticdump --input=http://<your_es_server_ip>:9200/index --output=es_index.json --type=data    

If you want to dump the data on any server I advise you to install esdump through docker. You can get more info from this website Blog Link

How to print a groupby object

df.groupby('key you want to group by').apply(print)

As mentioned by an other member, this is the easiest and simplest solution to visualize a groupby object.

Random "Element is no longer attached to the DOM" StaleElementReferenceException

I was facing the same problem today and made up a wrapper class, which checks before every method if the element reference is still valid. My solution to retrive the element is pretty simple so i thought i'd just share it.

private void setElementLocator()
{
    this.locatorVariable = "selenium_" + DateTimeMethods.GetTime().ToString();
    ((IJavaScriptExecutor)this.driver).ExecuteScript(locatorVariable + " = arguments[0];", this.element);
}

private void RetrieveElement()
{
    this.element = (IWebElement)((IJavaScriptExecutor)this.driver).ExecuteScript("return " + locatorVariable);
}

You see i "locate" or rather save the element in a global js variable and retrieve the element if needed. If the page gets reloaded this reference will not work anymore. But as long as only changes are made to doom the reference stays. And that should do the job in most cases.

Also it avoids re-searching the element.

CSS - display: none; not working

This is because the inline style display:block is overwriting your CSS. You'll need to either remove this inline style or use:

#tfl {
  display: none !important;
}

This overrides inline styles. Note that using !important is generally not recommended unless it's a last resort.

Error "can't load package: package my_prog: found packages my_prog and main"

Also, if all you are trying to do is break up the main.go file into multiple files, then just name the other files "package main" as long as you only define the main function in one of those files, you are good to go.

how to access iFrame parent page using jquery?

To find in the parent of the iFrame use:

$('#parentPrice', window.parent.document).html();

The second parameter for the $() wrapper is the context in which to search. This defaults to document.

Change all files and folders permissions of a directory to 644/755

This can work too:

chmod -R 644 *.*  // All files will be 644.

How to use SQL LIKE condition with multiple values in PostgreSQL?

Using array or set comparisons:

create table t (str text);
insert into t values ('AAA'), ('BBB'), ('DDD999YYY'), ('DDD099YYY');

select str from t
where str like any ('{"AAA%", "BBB%", "CCC%"}');

select str from t
where str like any (values('AAA%'), ('BBB%'), ('CCC%'));

It is also possible to do an AND which would not be easy with a regex if it were to match any order:

select str from t
where str like all ('{"%999%", "DDD%"}');

select str from t
where str like all (values('%999%'), ('DDD%'));

Disable a Maven plugin defined in a parent POM

See if the plugin has a 'skip' configuration parameter. Nearly all do. if it does, just add it to a declaration in the child:

<plugin>
   <groupId>group</groupId>
   <artifactId>artifact</artifactId>
   <configuration>
     <skip>true</skip>
   </configuration>
</plugin>

If not, then use:

<plugin>    
<groupId>group</groupId>   
 <artifactId>artifact</artifactId>    
<executions>
     <execution>
       <id>TheNameOfTheRelevantExecution</id>
       <phase>none</phase>
     </execution>    
</executions>

How can I clear or empty a StringBuilder?

There are basically two alternatives, using setLength(0) to reset the StringBuilder or creating a new one in each iteration. Both can have pros and cons depending on the usage.

If you know the expected capacity of the StringBuilder beforehand, creating a new one each time should be just as fast as setting a new length. It will also help the garbage collector, since each StringBuilder will be relatively short-lived and the gc is optimized for that.

When you don't know the capacity, reusing the same StringBuilder might be faster. Each time you exceed the capacity when appending, a new backing array has to be allocated and the previous content has to be copied. By reusing the same StringBuilder, it will reach the needed capacity after some iterations and there won't be any copying thereafter.

JUnit tests pass in Eclipse but fail in Maven Surefire

This has helped me in troubleshooting my problem. I had a similar symptoms in that maven would fail however running junit tests runs fine.

As it turns out my parent pom.xml contains the following definition:

    <plugin>
      <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
      <version>2.9</version>
      <configuration>
        <forkMode>pertest</forkMode>
        <argLine>-Xverify:none</argLine>
      </configuration>
    </plugin>

And in my project I override it to remove the argLine:

    <plugin>
       <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
       <configuration>
            <forkMode>pertest</forkMode>
            <argLine combine.self="override"></argLine>
          </configuration>
    </plugin>

Hopefully this will help someone in troubleshooting surefire plugin.

Axios having CORS issue

This work out for me :

in javascript :

Axios({
            method: 'post',
            headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded' },
            url: 'https://localhost:44346/Order/Order/GiveOrder',
            data: order
          }).then(function (response) {
            console.log(response.data);
          });

and in the backend (.net core) : in startup:

 #region Allow-Orgin
            services.AddCors(c =>
            {
                c.AddPolicy("AllowOrigin", options => options.AllowAnyOrigin());
            });
            #endregion

and in controller before action

[EnableCors("AllowOrigin")]

__FILE__ macro shows full path

I have use the same solution with @Patrick 's answer for years.

It has a small issue when the full path contains symbol-link.

Better solution.

set(CMAKE_C_FLAGS "${CMAKE_C_FLAGS} -Wno-builtin-macro-redefined -D'__FILE__=\"$(subst $(realpath ${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR})/,,$(abspath $<))\"'")
set(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} -Wno-builtin-macro-redefined -D'__FILE__=\"$(subst $(realpath ${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR})/,,$(abspath $<))\"'")

Why should use this ?

  • -Wno-builtin-macro-redefined to mute the compiler warnings for redefining __FILE__ macro.

    For those compilers do not support this, refer to the Robust way below.

  • Strip the project path from the file path is your real requirement. You won't like to waste the time to find out where is a header.h file, src/foo/header.h or src/bar/header.h.

  • We should strip the __FILE__ macro in cmake config file.

    This macro is used in most exists codes. Simply redefine it can set you free.

    Compilers like gcc predefines this macro from the command line arguments. And the full path is written in makefiles generated by cmake.

  • Hard code in CMAKE_*_FLAGS is required.

    There is some commands to add compiler options or definitions in some more recently version, like add_definitions() and add_compile_definitions(). These commands will parse the make functions like subst before apply to source files. That is not we want.

Robust way for -Wno-builtin-macro-redefined.

include(CheckCCompilerFlag)
check_c_compiler_flag(-Wno-builtin-macro-redefined SUPPORT_C_WNO_BUILTIN_MACRO_REDEFINED)
if (SUPPORT_C_WNO_BUILTIN_MACRO_REDEFINED)
    set(CMAKE_C_FLAGS "${CMAKE_C_FLAGS} -Wno-builtin-macro-redefined")
endif (SUPPORT_C_WNO_BUILTIN_MACRO_REDEFINED)
include(CheckCXXCompilerFlag)
check_cxx_compiler_flag(-Wno-builtin-macro-redefined SUPPORT_CXX_WNO_BUILTIN_MACRO_REDEFINED)
if (SUPPORT_CXX_WNO_BUILTIN_MACRO_REDEFINED)
    set(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} -Wno-builtin-macro-redefined")
endif (SUPPORT_CXX_WNO_BUILTIN_MACRO_REDEFINED)

Remember to remove this compiler option from the set(*_FLAGS ... -D__FILE__=...) line.

jQuery getTime function

You don't need jquery to do that, just javascript. For example, you can do a timer using this:

<body onload="clock();">

<script type="text/javascript">

   var now = new Date();
   var outStr = now.getHours()+':'+now.getMinutes()+':'+now.getSeconds();
   document.getElementById('clockDiv').innerHTML=outStr;
   setTimeout('clock()',1000);
}
clock();
</script>   

<div id="clockDiv"></div>

SQL Server 100% CPU Utilization - One database shows high CPU usage than others

You can see some reports in SSMS:

Right-click the instance name / reports / standard / top sessions

You can see top CPU consuming sessions. This may shed some light on what SQL processes are using resources. There are a few other CPU related reports if you look around. I was going to point to some more DMVs but if you've looked into that already I'll skip it.

You can use sp_BlitzCache to find the top CPU consuming queries. You can also sort by IO and other things as well. This is using DMV info which accumulates between restarts.

This article looks promising.

Some stackoverflow goodness from Mr. Ozar.

edit: A little more advice... A query running for 'only' 5 seconds can be a problem. It could be using all your cores and really running 8 cores times 5 seconds - 40 seconds of 'virtual' time. I like to use some DMVs to see how many executions have happened for that code to see what that 5 seconds adds up to.

Most efficient way to prepend a value to an array

With ES6, you can now use the spread operator to create a new array with your new elements inserted before the original elements.

_x000D_
_x000D_
// Prepend a single item._x000D_
const a = [1, 2, 3];_x000D_
console.log([0, ...a]);
_x000D_
_x000D_
_x000D_

_x000D_
_x000D_
// Prepend an array._x000D_
const a = [2, 3];_x000D_
const b = [0, 1];_x000D_
console.log([...b, ...a]);

Update 2018-08-17: Performance

I intended this answer to present an alternative syntax that I think is more memorable and concise. It should be noted that according to some benchmarks (see this other answer), this syntax is significantly slower. This is probably not going to matter unless you are doing many of these operations in a loop.

Android: ProgressDialog.show() crashes with getApplicationContext

Having read the above answers i found that for my situation the following fixed the issue.

This threw the error

myButton.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener(){
    public void onClick(View v) {
        MyDialogue dialog = new MyDialogue(getApplicationContext());
        dialog.show();              
    }
});

Based on the previous answers that suggested the context was the wrong one, i changed the getApplicationContext() to retrieve the context from the View passed in to the buttons onClick method.

myButton.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener(){
    public void onClick(View v) {
        MyDialogue dialog = new MyDialogue(v.getContext());
        dialog.show();              
    }
});

I don't fully understand the workings of Java so i could be wrong, but I'm guessing that for my specific situation the cause could have been related to the fact that the above snippet was defined in an Abstract Activity class; inherited and used by many Activities, perhaps that contributed to the fact that getApplicationContext() doesn't return a valid context?? (Just a guess).

How to target the href to div

You can put all your #m1...#m9 divs into .target and display them based on fragment identifier (hash) using :target pseudo-class. It doesn't move the contents between divs, but I think the effect is close to what you wanted to achieve.

Fiddle

HTML

<div class="target">
    <div id="m1">
        dasdasdasd m1
    </div>
    <!-- etc... -->
    <div id="m9">
        dasdasdsgaswa m9
    </div>   
</div>

CSS

.target {
    width:50%;
    height:200px;
    border:solid black 1px; 
}
.target > div {
    display:none;
}

.target > div:target{
    display:block;
}

Changing all files' extensions in a folder with one command on Windows

In my case I had a directory with 800+ files ending with .StoredProcedure.sql (they were scripted with SSMS).

The solutions posted above didn't work. But I came up with this:

(Based on answers to batch programming - get relative path of file)

@echo off
setlocal enabledelayedexpansion
for %%f in (*) do (
  set B=%%f
  set B=!B:%CD%\=!
  ren "!B!" "!B:.StoredProcedure=!"
)

The above script removes the substring .StoredProcedure from the filename. I'm sure it can be adapted to cover more cases, ask for input and be overall more generic.

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

Google lead me here while searching on the same question phill asked (sorting floats) so I figured it would be worth posting the answer despite the thread being kind of old. I'm new to perl and am still getting my head wrapped around it but brian d foy's statement "Perl cares more about the verbs than it does the nouns." above really hits the nail on the head. You don't need to convert the strings to floats before applying the sort. You need to tell the sort to sort the values as numbers and not strings. i.e.

my @foo = ('1.2', '3.4', '2.1', '4.6');
my @foo_sort = sort {$a <=> $b} @foo;

See http://perldoc.perl.org/functions/sort.html for more details on sort

Confused about Service vs Factory

This would be the best and short answer for understanding Service Vs Factory Vs Provider

Source: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/angular/56sdORWEoqg/HuZsOsMvKv4J

Here what ben says with a demo http://jsbin.com/ohamub/1/edit?html,output

"There are comments in the code illustrating the primary differences but I will expand on them a bit here. As a note, I am just getting my head around this so if I say anything that is wrong please let me know.

Services

Syntax: module.service( 'serviceName', function );

Result: When declaring serviceName as an injectable argument you will be provided the actual function reference passed to module.service.

Usage: Could be useful for sharing utility functions that are useful to invoke by simply appending () to the injected function reference. Could also be run with injectedArg.call( this ) or similar.

Factories

Syntax: module.factory( 'factoryName', function );

Result: When declaring factoryName as an injectable argument you will be provided the value that is returned by invoking the function reference passed to module.factory.

Usage: Could be useful for returning a 'class' function that can then be new'ed to create instances.

Providers

Syntax: module.provider( 'providerName', function );

Result: When declaring providerName as an injectable argument you will be provided the value that is returned by invoking the $get method of the function reference passed to module.provider.

Usage: Could be useful for returning a 'class' function that can then be new'ed to create instances but that requires some sort of configuration before being injected. Perhaps useful for classes that are reusable across projects? Still kind of hazy on this one." Ben

How to disable phone number linking in Mobile Safari?

My experience is the same as some others mentioned. The meta tag...

<meta name = "format-detection" content = "telephone=no">

...works when the website is running in Mobile Safari (i.e., with chrome) but stops working when run as a webapp (i.e., is saved to home screen and runs without chrome).

My less-than-ideal solution is to insert the values into input fields...

<input type="text" readonly="readonly" style="border:none;" value="3105551212">

It's less than ideal because, despite the border being set to none, iOS renders a multi-pixel gray bar above the field. But, it's better than seeing the number as a link.

how to show alternate image if source image is not found? (onerror working in IE but not in mozilla)

I think this is very nice and short

<img src="imagenotfound.gif" alt="Image not found" onerror="this.src='imagefound.gif';" />

But, be careful. The user's browser will be stuck in an endless loop if the onerror image itself generates an error.


EDIT To avoid endless loop, remove the onerror from it at once.

<img src="imagenotfound.gif" alt="Image not found" onerror="this.onerror=null;this.src='imagefound.gif';" />

By calling this.onerror=null it will remove the onerror then try to get the alternate image.


NEW I would like to add a jQuery way, if this can help anyone.

<script>
$(document).ready(function()
{
    $(".backup_picture").on("error", function(){
        $(this).attr('src', './images/nopicture.png');
    });
});
</script>

<img class='backup_picture' src='./images/nonexistent_image_file.png' />

You simply need to add class='backup_picture' to any img tag that you want a backup picture to load if it tries to show a bad image.

How to convert JSON to CSV format and store in a variable

Heres a way to do it for dynamically deep objects in a object oriented way for the newer js versions. you might have to change the seperatortype after region.

private ConvertToCSV(objArray) {
    let rows = typeof objArray !== "object" ? JSON.parse(objArray) : objArray;
    let  header = "";
    Object.keys(rows[0]).map(pr => (header += pr + ";"));

    let str = "";
    rows.forEach(row => {
        let line = "";
        let columns =
            typeof row !== "object" ? JSON.parse(row) : Object.values(row);
        columns.forEach(column => {
            if (line !== "") {
                line += ";";
            }
            if (typeof column === "object") {
                line += JSON.stringify(column);
            }  else {
                line += column;
            }
        });
        str += line + "\r\n";
    });
    return header + "\r\n" + str;

Change Screen Orientation programmatically using a Button

Wherever possible, please don't use SCREEN_ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE or SCREEN_ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT. Instead use:

setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_SENSOR_LANDSCAPE);
setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_SENSOR_PORTRAIT);

These allow the user to orient the device to either landscape orientation, or either portrait orientation, respectively. If you've ever had to play a game with a charging cable being driven into your stomach, then you know exactly why having both orientations available is important to the user.

Note: For phones, at least several that I've checked, it only allows the "right side up" portrait mode, however, SENSOR_PORTRAIT works properly on tablets.

Note: this feature was introduced in API Level 9, so if you must support 8 or lower (not likely at this point), then instead use:

setRequestedOrientation(Build.VERSION.SDK_INT < 9 ?
                        ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE :
                        ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_SENSOR_LANDSCAPE);
setRequestedOrientation(Build.VERSION.SDK_INT < 9 ?
                        ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT :
                        ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_SENSOR_PORTRAIT);

What is the difference between 'E', 'T', and '?' for Java generics?

compiler will make a capture for each wildcard (e.g., question mark in List) when it makes up a function like:

foo(List<?> list) {
    list.put(list.get()) // ERROR: capture and Object are not identical type.
}

However a generic type like V would be ok and making it a generic method:

<V>void foo(List<V> list) {
    list.put(list.get())
}

Multiple distinct pages in one HTML file

This is kind of overriding the thing of one page, but... You could use iframes in HTML.

<html>
<body>
<iframe src="page1.html" border="0"></iframe>
</body>
</html>

And page1.html would be your base page. Your still making multiple pages, but your browser just doesn't move. So lets say thats your index.html. You have tabs, you click page 2, your url wont change, but the page will. All in iframes. The only thing different, is that you can view the frame source as well.

Do you have to put Task.Run in a method to make it async?

First, let's clear up some terminology: "asynchronous" (async) means that it may yield control back to the calling thread before it starts. In an async method, those "yield" points are await expressions.

This is very different than the term "asynchronous", as (mis)used by the MSDN documentation for years to mean "executes on a background thread".

To futher confuse the issue, async is very different than "awaitable"; there are some async methods whose return types are not awaitable, and many methods returning awaitable types that are not async.

Enough about what they aren't; here's what they are:

  • The async keyword allows an asynchronous method (that is, it allows await expressions). async methods may return Task, Task<T>, or (if you must) void.
  • Any type that follows a certain pattern can be awaitable. The most common awaitable types are Task and Task<T>.

So, if we reformulate your question to "how can I run an operation on a background thread in a way that it's awaitable", the answer is to use Task.Run:

private Task<int> DoWorkAsync() // No async because the method does not need await
{
  return Task.Run(() =>
  {
    return 1 + 2;
  });
}

(But this pattern is a poor approach; see below).

But if your question is "how do I create an async method that can yield back to its caller instead of blocking", the answer is to declare the method async and use await for its "yielding" points:

private async Task<int> GetWebPageHtmlSizeAsync()
{
  var client = new HttpClient();
  var html = await client.GetAsync("http://www.example.com/");
  return html.Length;
}

So, the basic pattern of things is to have async code depend on "awaitables" in its await expressions. These "awaitables" can be other async methods or just regular methods returning awaitables. Regular methods returning Task/Task<T> can use Task.Run to execute code on a background thread, or (more commonly) they can use TaskCompletionSource<T> or one of its shortcuts (TaskFactory.FromAsync, Task.FromResult, etc). I don't recommend wrapping an entire method in Task.Run; synchronous methods should have synchronous signatures, and it should be left up to the consumer whether it should be wrapped in a Task.Run:

private int DoWork()
{
  return 1 + 2;
}

private void MoreSynchronousProcessing()
{
  // Execute it directly (synchronously), since we are also a synchronous method.
  var result = DoWork();
  ...
}

private async Task DoVariousThingsFromTheUIThreadAsync()
{
  // I have a bunch of async work to do, and I am executed on the UI thread.
  var result = await Task.Run(() => DoWork());
  ...
}

I have an async/await intro on my blog; at the end are some good followup resources. The MSDN docs for async are unusually good, too.

Drop all tables whose names begin with a certain string

On Oracle XE this works:

SELECT 'DROP TABLE "' || TABLE_NAME || '";'
FROM USER_TABLES
WHERE TABLE_NAME LIKE 'YOURTABLEPREFIX%'

Or if you want to remove the constraints and free up space as well, use this:

SELECT 'DROP TABLE "' || TABLE_NAME || '" cascade constraints PURGE;'
FROM USER_TABLES
WHERE TABLE_NAME LIKE 'YOURTABLEPREFIX%'

Which will generate a bunch of DROP TABLE cascade constraints PURGE statements...

For VIEWS use this:

SELECT 'DROP VIEW "' || VIEW_NAME || '";'
FROM USER_VIEWS
WHERE VIEW_NAME LIKE 'YOURVIEWPREFIX%'

How to create a GUID/UUID using iOS

In Swift 3.0

Cross-browser custom styling for file upload button

It's also easy to style the label if you are working with Bootstrap and LESS:

label {
    .btn();
    .btn-primary();

    > input[type="file"] {
        display: none;
    }
}

CSS to prevent child element from inheriting parent styles

Can't you style the forms themselves? Then, style the divs accordingly.

form
{
    /* styles */
}

You can always overrule inherited styles by making it important:

form
{
    /* styles */ !important
}

How to make one Observable sequence wait for another to complete before emitting?

Here's a custom operator written with TypeScript that waits for a signal before emitting results:

export function waitFor<T>(
    signal$: Observable<any>
) {
    return (source$: Observable<T>) =>
        new Observable<T>(observer => {
            // combineLatest emits the first value only when
            // both source and signal emitted at least once
            combineLatest([
                source$,
                signal$.pipe(
                    first(),
                ),
            ])
                .subscribe(([v]) => observer.next(v));
        });
}

You can use it like this:

two.pipe(waitFor(one))
   .subscribe(value => ...);

How can I make a button have a rounded border in Swift?

This class is based from all the comments and suggestions in answers, and also can be designable directly from xcode. Copy to your project and insert any UIButton and change to use custom class, now just select border or background color from xcode for normal and/or highlighted states.

//
//  RoundedButton.swift
//

import UIKit

@IBDesignable
class RoundedButton:UIButton {

    @IBInspectable var borderWidth: CGFloat = 0 {
        didSet {
            layer.borderWidth = borderWidth
        }
    }
    //Normal state bg and border
    @IBInspectable var normalBorderColor: UIColor? {
        didSet {
            layer.borderColor = normalBorderColor?.CGColor
        }
    }

    @IBInspectable var normalBackgroundColor: UIColor? {
        didSet {
            setBgColorForState(normalBackgroundColor, forState: .Normal)
        }
    }


    //Highlighted state bg and border
    @IBInspectable var highlightedBorderColor: UIColor?

    @IBInspectable var highlightedBackgroundColor: UIColor? {
        didSet {
            setBgColorForState(highlightedBackgroundColor, forState: .Highlighted)
        }
    }


    private func setBgColorForState(color: UIColor?, forState: UIControlState){
        if color != nil {
            setBackgroundImage(UIImage.imageWithColor(color!), forState: forState)

        } else {
            setBackgroundImage(nil, forState: forState)
        }
    }

    override func layoutSubviews() {
        super.layoutSubviews()

        layer.cornerRadius = layer.frame.height / 2
        clipsToBounds = true

        if borderWidth > 0 {
            if state == .Normal && !CGColorEqualToColor(layer.borderColor, normalBorderColor?.CGColor) {
                layer.borderColor = normalBorderColor?.CGColor
            } else if state == .Highlighted && highlightedBorderColor != nil{
                layer.borderColor = highlightedBorderColor!.CGColor
            }
        }
    }

}

//Extension Required by RoundedButton to create UIImage from UIColor
extension UIImage {
    class func imageWithColor(color: UIColor) -> UIImage {
        let rect: CGRect = CGRectMake(0, 0, 1, 1)
        UIGraphicsBeginImageContextWithOptions(CGSizeMake(1, 1), false, 1.0)
        color.setFill()
        UIRectFill(rect)
        let image: UIImage = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext()
        UIGraphicsEndImageContext()
        return image
    }
}

Difference in months between two dates

Here is a comprehensive solution to return a DateTimeSpan, similar to a TimeSpan, except that it includes all the date components in addition to the time components.

Usage:

void Main()
{
    DateTime compareTo = DateTime.Parse("8/13/2010 8:33:21 AM");
    DateTime now = DateTime.Parse("2/9/2012 10:10:11 AM");
    var dateSpan = DateTimeSpan.CompareDates(compareTo, now);
    Console.WriteLine("Years: " + dateSpan.Years);
    Console.WriteLine("Months: " + dateSpan.Months);
    Console.WriteLine("Days: " + dateSpan.Days);
    Console.WriteLine("Hours: " + dateSpan.Hours);
    Console.WriteLine("Minutes: " + dateSpan.Minutes);
    Console.WriteLine("Seconds: " + dateSpan.Seconds);
    Console.WriteLine("Milliseconds: " + dateSpan.Milliseconds);
}

Outputs:

Years: 1
Months: 5
Days: 27
Hours: 1
Minutes: 36
Seconds: 50
Milliseconds: 0

For convenience, I've lumped the logic into the DateTimeSpan struct, but you may move the method CompareDates wherever you see fit. Also note, it doesn't matter which date comes before the other.

public struct DateTimeSpan
{
    public int Years { get; }
    public int Months { get; }
    public int Days { get; }
    public int Hours { get; }
    public int Minutes { get; }
    public int Seconds { get; }
    public int Milliseconds { get; }

    public DateTimeSpan(int years, int months, int days, int hours, int minutes, int seconds, int milliseconds)
    {
        Years = years;
        Months = months;
        Days = days;
        Hours = hours;
        Minutes = minutes;
        Seconds = seconds;
        Milliseconds = milliseconds;
    }

    enum Phase { Years, Months, Days, Done }

    public static DateTimeSpan CompareDates(DateTime date1, DateTime date2)
    {
        if (date2 < date1)
        {
            var sub = date1;
            date1 = date2;
            date2 = sub;
        }

        DateTime current = date1;
        int years = 0;
        int months = 0;
        int days = 0;

        Phase phase = Phase.Years;
        DateTimeSpan span = new DateTimeSpan();
        int officialDay = current.Day;

        while (phase != Phase.Done)
        {
            switch (phase)
            {
                case Phase.Years:
                    if (current.AddYears(years + 1) > date2)
                    {
                        phase = Phase.Months;
                        current = current.AddYears(years);
                    }
                    else
                    {
                        years++;
                    }
                    break;
                case Phase.Months:
                    if (current.AddMonths(months + 1) > date2)
                    {
                        phase = Phase.Days;
                        current = current.AddMonths(months);
                        if (current.Day < officialDay && officialDay <= DateTime.DaysInMonth(current.Year, current.Month))
                            current = current.AddDays(officialDay - current.Day);
                    }
                    else
                    {
                        months++;
                    }
                    break;
                case Phase.Days:
                    if (current.AddDays(days + 1) > date2)
                    {
                        current = current.AddDays(days);
                        var timespan = date2 - current;
                        span = new DateTimeSpan(years, months, days, timespan.Hours, timespan.Minutes, timespan.Seconds, timespan.Milliseconds);
                        phase = Phase.Done;
                    }
                    else
                    {
                        days++;
                    }
                    break;
            }

Text size and different android screen sizes

I think its too late to reply on this thread. But I would like to share my idea or way to resolve text size problem over difference resolution devices. Many android developer sites suggest that we have to use sp unit for text size which will handle text size for difference resolution devices. But I am always unable to get the desired result. So I have found one solution which I am using from my last 4-5 projects and its working fine. As per my suggestion, you have to place the text size for each resolution devices, which is bit tedious work, but it will fulfill your requirement. Each developer has must listen about the ratio like 4:6:8:12 (h:xh:xxh:xxxh respectively). Now inside your project res folder you have to create 4 folder with dimens file e.g.

  1. res/values-hdpi/dimens.xml
  2. res/values-xhdpi/dimens.xml
  3. res/values-xxhdpi/dimens.xml
  4. res/values-xxxhdpi/dimens.xml

Now inside dimens.xml file you have to place text sizes. I am showing you code for values-hdpi, similarly you have to place code for other resolution values/dimens.xml file.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
   <dimen name="text_size">4px</dimen>
</resources>

For other resolutions it is like xhdpi : 6px, xxhdpi : 8px, xxxhdpi : 12px. This is calculated with the ratio (3:4:6:8:12) I have written above. Lets discuss other text size example with above ratio. If you want to take text size of 12px in hdpi, then in other resolution it would be

  1. hdpi : 12px
  2. xhdpi : 18px
  3. xxhdpi : 24px
  4. xxxhdpi : 36px

This is the simple solution to implement required text size for all resolutions. I am not considering values-mdpi resolution devices here. If any one want to include text size for this resolution then ration is like 3:4:6:8:12. In any query please let me know. Hope it will help you people out.

How to get folder path for ClickOnce application

Assuming the question is about accessing files in the application folder after the ClickOnce (true == System.Deployment.ApplicationDeploy.IsNetworkDeployed) application is installed on the user's PC, their are three ways to get this folder by the application itself:

String path1 = System.AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory;
String path2 = System.IO.Directory.GetCurrentDirectory();    
String path3 = System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().CodeBase; //Remove the last path component, the executing assembly itself.

These work from VS IDE and from a deployed/installed ClickedOnce app, no "true == System.Deployment.ApplicationDeploy.IsNetworkDeployed" check required. ClickOnce picks up any files included in the Visual Studio 2017 project so really the application can access any and all deployed files using relative paths from within the application.

This is based on Windows 10 and Visual Studio 2017

Accessing dictionary value by index in python

Standard Python dictionaries are inherently unordered, so what you're asking to do doesn't really make sense.

If you really, really know what you're doing, use

value_at_index = dic.values()[index]

Bear in mind that adding or removing an element can potentially change the index of every other element.

Insert auto increment primary key to existing table

yes, something like this would do it, might not be the best though, you might wanna make a backup

$get_query = mysql_query("SELECT `any_field` FROM `your_table`");

$auto_increment_id = 1;

while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($get_query))
{
  $update_query = mysql_query("UPDATE `your_table` SET `auto_increment_id`=$auto_increment_id WHERE `any_field` = '".$row['any_field']."'");
  $auto_increment_id++;
}

notice that the the any_field you select must be the same when updating.

Testing two JSON objects for equality ignoring child order in Java

Using GSON

JsonParser parser = new JsonParser();
JsonElement o1 = parser.parse("{a : {a : 2}, b : 2}");
JsonElement o2 = parser.parse("{b : 2, a : {a : 2}}");
assertEquals(o1, o2);

Edit: Since GSON v2.8.6 the instance method JsonParser.parse is deprecated. You have to use the static method JsonParser.parseString:

JsonElement o1 = JsonParser.parseString("{a : {a : 2}, b : 2}");
JsonElement o2 = JsonParser.parseString("{b : 2, a : {a : 2}}");
assertEquals(o1, o2);

Entity Framework: There is already an open DataReader associated with this Command

I noticed that this error happens when I send an IQueriable to the view and use it in a double foreach, where the inner foreach also needs to use the connection. Simple example (ViewBag.parents can be IQueriable or DbSet):

foreach (var parent in ViewBag.parents)
{
    foreach (var child in parent.childs)
    {

    }
}

The simple solution is to use .ToList() on the collection before using it. Also note that MARS does not work with MySQL.

"Incorrect string value" when trying to insert UTF-8 into MySQL via JDBC?

MySQL's utf8 permits only the Unicode characters that can be represented with 3 bytes in UTF-8. Here you have a character that needs 4 bytes: \xF0\x90\x8D\x83 (U+10343 GOTHIC LETTER SAUIL).

If you have MySQL 5.5 or later you can change the column encoding from utf8 to utf8mb4. This encoding allows storage of characters that occupy 4 bytes in UTF-8.

You may also have to set the server property character_set_server to utf8mb4 in the MySQL configuration file. It seems that Connector/J defaults to 3-byte Unicode otherwise:

For example, to use 4-byte UTF-8 character sets with Connector/J, configure the MySQL server with character_set_server=utf8mb4, and leave characterEncoding out of the Connector/J connection string. Connector/J will then autodetect the UTF-8 setting.

How to change date format in JavaScript

You can certainly format the date yourself..

var mydate = new Date(form.startDate.value);
var month = ["January", "February", "March", "April", "May", "June",
"July", "August", "September", "October", "November", "December"][mydate.getMonth()];
var str = month + ' ' + mydate.getFullYear();

You can also use an external library, such as DateJS.

Here's a DateJS example:

<script src="http://www.datejs.com/build/date.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script>
   var mydate = new Date(form.startDate.value);
   var str = mydate.toString("MMMM yyyy");
   window.alert(str);
</script>

Angular2: Cannot read property 'name' of undefined

In Angular, there is the support elvis operator ?. to protect against a view render failure. They call it the safe navigation operator. Take the example below:

The current person name is {{nullObject?.name}}

Since it is trying to access name property of a null value, the whole view disappears and you can see the error inside the browser console. It works perfectly with long property paths such as a?.b?.c?.d. So I recommend you to use it everytime you need to access a property inside a template.

Sending email through Gmail SMTP server with C#

CVertex, make sure to review your code, and, if that doesn't reveal anything, post it. I was just enabling this on a test ASP.NET site I was working on, and it works.

Actually, at some point I had an issue on my code. I didn't spot it until I had a simpler version on a console program and saw it was working (no change on the Gmail side as you were worried about). The below code works just like the samples you referred to:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Net.Mail;
using System.Net;

namespace ConsoleApplication2
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            var client = new SmtpClient("smtp.gmail.com", 587)
            {
                Credentials = new NetworkCredential("[email protected]", "mypwd"),
                EnableSsl = true
            };
            client.Send("[email protected]", "[email protected]", "test", "testbody");
            Console.WriteLine("Sent");
            Console.ReadLine();
        }
    }
}

I also got it working using a combination of web.config, http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/w355a94k.aspx and code (because there is no matching EnableSsl in the configuration file :( ).

Which port we can use to run IIS other than 80?

Port 8080 might have been used by another process in your computer.

Do netstat in command prompt to find out which server/process is using it.

Have a look at this page (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Port_number) it gives you full explanation on how to use port number

SQL Server 2012 column identity increment jumping from 6 to 1000+ on 7th entry

While trace flag 272 may work for many, it definitely won't work for hosted Sql Server Express installations. So, I created an identity table, and use this through an INSTEAD OF trigger. I'm hoping this helps someone else, and/or gives others an opportunity to improve my solution. The last line allows returning the last identity column added. Since I typically use this to add a single row, this works to return the identity of a single inserted row.

The identity table:

CREATE TABLE [dbo].[tblsysIdentities](
[intTableId] [int] NOT NULL,
[intIdentityLast] [int] NOT NULL,
[strTable] [varchar](100) NOT NULL,
[tsConcurrency] [timestamp] NULL,
CONSTRAINT [PK_tblsysIdentities] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED 
(
    [intTableId] ASC
)WITH (PAD_INDEX = OFF, STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE = OFF, IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF,  ALLOW_ROW_LOCKS = ON, ALLOW_PAGE_LOCKS = ON) ON [PRIMARY]
) ON [PRIMARY]

and the insert trigger:

-- INSERT --
IF OBJECT_ID ('dbo.trgtblsysTrackerMessagesIdentity', 'TR') IS NOT NULL
   DROP TRIGGER dbo.trgtblsysTrackerMessagesIdentity;
GO
CREATE TRIGGER trgtblsysTrackerMessagesIdentity
ON dbo.tblsysTrackerMessages
INSTEAD OF INSERT AS 
BEGIN
    DECLARE @intTrackerMessageId INT
    DECLARE @intRowCount INT

    SET @intRowCount = (SELECT COUNT(*) FROM INSERTED)

    SET @intTrackerMessageId = (SELECT intIdentityLast FROM tblsysIdentities WHERE intTableId=1)
    UPDATE tblsysIdentities SET intIdentityLast = @intTrackerMessageId + @intRowCount WHERE intTableId=1

    INSERT INTO tblsysTrackerMessages( 
    [intTrackerMessageId],
    [intTrackerId],
    [strMessage],
    [intTrackerMessageTypeId],
    [datCreated],
    [strCreatedBy])
    SELECT @intTrackerMessageId + ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY [datCreated]) AS [intTrackerMessageId], 
    [intTrackerId],
   [strMessage],
   [intTrackerMessageTypeId],
   [datCreated],
   [strCreatedBy] FROM INSERTED;

   SELECT TOP 1 @intTrackerMessageId + @intRowCount FROM INSERTED;
END

     using(IEnumerator<T> iter = items.GetEnumerator())
     {
         iter.MoveNext();
         return iter.Current;
     }
 }

This should do what you're looking for...it uses generics so you to get the first item on any type IEnumerable.

Call it like so:

List<string> items = new List<string>() { "A", "B", "C", "D", "E" };
string firstItem = First<string>(items);

Or

int[] items = new int[] { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 };
int firstItem = First<int>(items);

You could modify it readily enough to mimic .NET 3.5's IEnumerable.ElementAt() extension method:

static T ElementAt<T>(IEnumerable<T> items, int index)
{
    using(IEnumerator<T> iter = items.GetEnumerator())
    {
        for (int i = 0; i <= index; i++, iter.MoveNext()) ;
        return iter.Current;
    }
} 

Calling it like so:

int[] items = { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 };
int elemIdx = 3;
int item = ElementAt<int>(items, elemIdx);

Of course if you do have access to LINQ, then there are plenty of good answers posted already...

What is a non-capturing group in regular expressions?

Well I am a JavaScript developer and will try to explain its significance pertaining to JavaScript.

Consider a scenario where you want to match cat is animal when you would like match cat and animal and both should have a is in between them.

 // this will ignore "is" as that's is what we want
"cat is animal".match(/(cat)(?: is )(animal)/) ;
result ["cat is animal", "cat", "animal"]

 // using lookahead pattern it will match only "cat" we can
 // use lookahead but the problem is we can not give anything
 // at the back of lookahead pattern
"cat is animal".match(/cat(?= is animal)/) ;
result ["cat"]

 //so I gave another grouping parenthesis for animal
 // in lookahead pattern to match animal as well
"cat is animal".match(/(cat)(?= is (animal))/) ;
result ["cat", "cat", "animal"]

 // we got extra cat in above example so removing another grouping
"cat is animal".match(/cat(?= is (animal))/) ;
result ["cat", "animal"]

In Python, is there an elegant way to print a list in a custom format without explicit looping?

Starting from this:

>>> lst = [1, 2, 3]
>>> print('\n'.join('{}: {}'.format(*k) for k in enumerate(lst)))
0: 1
1: 2
2: 3

You can get rid of the join by passing \n as a separator to print

>>> print(*('{}: {}'.format(*k) for k in enumerate(lst)), sep="\n")
0: 1
1: 2
2: 3

Now you see you could use map, but you'll need to change the format string (yuck!)

>>> print(*(map('{0[0]}: {0[1]}'.format, enumerate(lst))), sep="\n")
0: 1
1: 2
2: 3

or pass 2 sequences to map. A separate counter and no longer enumerate lst

>>> from itertools import count
>>> print(*(map('{}: {}'.format, count(), lst)), sep="\n")
0: 1
1: 2
2: 3

How to import Maven dependency in Android Studio/IntelliJ?

Android Studio 3

The answers that talk about Maven Central are dated since Android Studio uses JCenter as the default repository center now. Your project's build.gradle file should have something like this:

repositories {
    google()
    jcenter()
}

So as long as the developer has their Maven repository there (which Picasso does), then all you would have to do is add a single line to the dependencies section of your app's build.gradle file.

dependencies {
    // ...
    implementation 'com.squareup.picasso:picasso:2.5.2'
}

How are you adding your Weblogic classes to the classpath in Eclipse? Are you using WTP, and a server runtime? If so, is your server runtime associated with your project?

If you right click on your project and choose build path->configure build path and then choose the libraries tab. You should see the weblogic libraries associated here. If you do not you can click Add Library->Server Runtime. If the library is not there, then you first need to configure it. Windows->Preferences->Server->Installed runtimes

What is Turing Complete?

As Waylon Flinn said:

Turing Complete means that it is at least as powerful as a Turing Machine.

I believe this is incorrect, a system is Turing complete if it's exactly as powerful as the Turing Machine, i.e. every computation done by the machine can be done by the system, but also every computation done by the system can be done by the Turing machine.

GZIPInputStream reading line by line

How to create an executable .exe file from a .m file

I developed a non-matlab software for direct compilation of m-files (TMC Compiler). This is an open-source converter of m-files projects to C. The compiler produces the C code that may be linked with provided open-source run-time library to produce a stand-alone application. The library implements a set of build-in functions; the linear-algebra operations use LAPACK code. It is possible to expand the set of the build-in functions by custom implementation as described in the documentation.

How to select from subquery using Laravel Query Builder?

I like doing something like this:

Message::select('*')
->from(DB::raw("( SELECT * FROM `messages`
                  WHERE `to_id` = ".Auth::id()." AND `isseen` = 0
                  GROUP BY `from_id` asc) as `sub`"))
->count();

It's not very elegant, but it's simple.

How to round an image with Glide library?

Check this post, glide vs picasso...
Edit: the linked post doesn't call out an important difference in the libraries. Glide does the recycling automatically. See TWiStErRob's comment for more.

Glide.with(this).load(URL).transform(new CircleTransform(context)).into(imageView);

public static class CircleTransform extends BitmapTransformation {
    public CircleTransform(Context context) {
        super(context);
    }

    @Override protected Bitmap transform(BitmapPool pool, Bitmap toTransform, int outWidth, int outHeight) {
        return circleCrop(pool, toTransform);
    }

    private static Bitmap circleCrop(BitmapPool pool, Bitmap source) {
        if (source == null) return null;

        int size = Math.min(source.getWidth(), source.getHeight());
        int x = (source.getWidth() - size) / 2;
        int y = (source.getHeight() - size) / 2;

        // TODO this could be acquired from the pool too
        Bitmap squared = Bitmap.createBitmap(source, x, y, size, size);

        Bitmap result = pool.get(size, size, Bitmap.Config.ARGB_8888);
        if (result == null) {
            result = Bitmap.createBitmap(size, size, Bitmap.Config.ARGB_8888);
        }

        Canvas canvas = new Canvas(result);
        Paint paint = new Paint();
        paint.setShader(new BitmapShader(squared, BitmapShader.TileMode.CLAMP, BitmapShader.TileMode.CLAMP));
        paint.setAntiAlias(true);
        float r = size / 2f;
        canvas.drawCircle(r, r, r, paint);
        return result;
    }

    @Override public String getId() {
        return getClass().getName();
    }
} 

Referring to a Column Alias in a WHERE Clause

You could refer to column alias but you need to define it using CROSS/OUTER APPLY:

SELECT s.logcount, s.logUserID, s.maxlogtm, c.daysdiff
FROM statslogsummary s
CROSS APPLY (SELECT DATEDIFF(day, s.maxlogtm, GETDATE()) AS daysdiff) c
WHERE c.daysdiff > 120;

DBFiddle Demo

Pros:

  • single definition of expression(easier to maintain/no need of copying-paste)
  • no need for wrapping entire query with CTE/outerquery
  • possibility to refer in WHERE/GROUP BY/ORDER BY
  • possible better performance(single execution)

How to create own dynamic type or dynamic object in C#?

Virtual member call in a constructor

The warning is a reminder that virtual members are likely to be overridden on derived class. In that case whatever the parent class did to a virtual member will be undone or changed by overriding child class. Look at the small example blow for clarity

The parent class below attempts to set value to a virtual member on its constructor. And this will trigger Re-sharper warning, let see on code:

public class Parent
{
    public virtual object Obj{get;set;}
    public Parent()
    {
        // Re-sharper warning: this is open to change from 
        // inheriting class overriding virtual member
        this.Obj = new Object();
    }
}

The child class here overrides the parent property. If this property was not marked virtual the compiler would warn that the property hides property on the parent class and suggest that you add 'new' keyword if it is intentional.

public class Child: Parent
{
    public Child():base()
    {
        this.Obj = "Something";
    }
    public override object Obj{get;set;}
}

Finally the impact on use, the output of the example below abandons the initial value set by parent class constructor. And this is what Re-sharper attempts to to warn you, values set on the Parent class constructor are open to be overwritten by the child class constructor which is called right after the parent class constructor.

public class Program
{
    public static void Main()
    {
        var child = new Child();
        // anything that is done on parent virtual member is destroyed
        Console.WriteLine(child.Obj);
        // Output: "Something"
    }
} 

Number of days between two dates in Joda-Time

tl;dr

java.time.temporal.ChronoUnit.DAYS.between( 
    earlier.toLocalDate(), 
    later.toLocalDate() 
)

…or…

java.time.temporal.ChronoUnit.HOURS.between( 
    earlier.truncatedTo( ChronoUnit.HOURS )  , 
    later.truncatedTo( ChronoUnit.HOURS ) 
)

java.time

FYI, the Joda-Time project is now in maintenance mode, with the team advising migration to the java.time classes.

The equivalent of Joda-Time DateTime is ZonedDateTime.

ZoneId z = ZoneId.of( "Pacific/Auckland" ) ;
ZonedDateTime now = ZonedDateTime.now( z ) ;

Apparently you want to count the days by dates, meaning you want to ignore the time of day. For example, starting a minute before midnight and ending a minute after midnight should result in a single day. For this behavior, extract a LocalDate from your ZonedDateTime. The LocalDate class represents a date-only value without time-of-day and without time zone.

LocalDate localDateStart = zdtStart.toLocalDate() ;
LocalDate localDateStop = zdtStop.toLocalDate() ;

Use the ChronoUnit enum to calculate elapsed days or other units.

long days = ChronoUnit.DAYS.between( localDateStart , localDateStop ) ;

Truncate

As for you asking about a more general way to do this counting where you are interested the delta of hours as hour-of-the-clock rather than complete hours as spans-of-time of sixty minutes, use the truncatedTo method.

Here is your example of 14:45 to 15:12 on same day.

ZoneId z = ZoneId.of( "America/Montreal" ); 
ZonedDateTime start = ZonedDateTime.of( 2017 , 1 , 17 , 14 , 45 , 0 , 0 , z );
ZonedDateTime stop = ZonedDateTime.of( 2017 , 1 , 17 , 15 , 12 , 0 , 0 , z );

long hours = ChronoUnit.HOURS.between( start.truncatedTo( ChronoUnit.HOURS ) , stop.truncatedTo( ChronoUnit.HOURS ) );

1

This does not work for days. Use toLocalDate() in this case.


About java.time

The java.time framework is built into Java 8 and later. These classes supplant the troublesome old legacy date-time classes such as java.util.Date, Calendar, & SimpleDateFormat.

The Joda-Time project, now in maintenance mode, advises migration to the java.time classes.

To learn more, see the Oracle Tutorial. And search Stack Overflow for many examples and explanations. Specification is JSR 310.

You may exchange java.time objects directly with your database. Use a JDBC driver compliant with JDBC 4.2 or later. No need for strings, no need for java.sql.* classes.

Where to obtain the java.time classes?

The ThreeTen-Extra project extends java.time with additional classes. This project is a proving ground for possible future additions to java.time. You may find some useful classes here such as Interval, YearWeek, YearQuarter, and more.

Set the selected index of a Dropdown using jQuery

I'm writing this answer in 2015, and for some reason (probably older versions of jQuery) none of the other answers have worked for me. I mean, they change the selected index, but it doesn't actually reflect on the actual dropdown.

Here is another way to change the index, and actually have it reflect in the dropdown:

$('#mydropdown').val('first').change();

How to write log base(2) in c/c++

Simple math:

    log2 (x) = logy (x) / logy (2)

where y can be anything, which for standard log functions is either 10 or e.

How do I get the full path of the current file's directory?

You can use os and os.path library easily as follows

import os
os.chdir(os.path.dirname(os.getcwd()))

os.path.dirname returns upper directory from current one. It lets us change to an upper level without passing any file argument and without knowing absolute path.

os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(myfilename))

Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM warning: ignoring option MaxPermSize

Please to solve this problem we just have set installed JDK path in

standalone.conf

file which under the bin folder of JBoss\Wildfly Server. To solve this we do the following steps:

  1. Open the standlone.conf file which under JBoss_or_wildfly\bin folder
  2. Within this file find for #JAVA_HOME text.
  3. Remove the # character and set your installed JDK path as JAVA_HOME="C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_65" Hope this will solve your problem Thanks

WCF - How to Increase Message Size Quota

The WCF Test Client has it's own client config.

Run the test client and scroll to the bottom. If you double click the Config File node you will see the XML representation. As you can see the maxReceivedMessageSize is 65536.

To edit this, Right Click the Config File tree node and select Edit With SvcConfigEditor. When the editor opens expand Bindings and double click the binding that was automatically generated.

You can edit all the properties here, including maxReceivedMessageSize. When you are done click File - Save.

Lastly, when you are back at the WCF Test Client window, click Tools - Options.

NOTE: Uncheck the Always regenerate config when launching services.

Assembly - JG/JNLE/JL/JNGE after CMP

Wikibooks has a fairly good summary of jump instructions. Basically, there's actually two stages:

cmp_instruction op1, op2

Which sets various flags based on the result, and

jmp_conditional_instruction address

which will execute the jump based on the results of those flags.

Compare (cmp) will basically compute the subtraction op1-op2, however, this is not stored; instead only flag results are set. So if you did cmp eax, ebx that's the same as saying eax-ebx - then deciding based on whether that is positive, negative or zero which flags to set.

More detailed reference here.

'module' object is not callable - calling method in another file

The problem is in the import line. You are importing a module, not a class. Assuming your file is named other_file.py (unlike java, again, there is no such rule as "one class, one file"):

from other_file import findTheRange

if your file is named findTheRange too, following java's convenions, then you should write

from findTheRange import findTheRange

you can also import it just like you did with random:

import findTheRange
operator = findTheRange.findTheRange()

Some other comments:

a) @Daniel Roseman is right. You do not need classes here at all. Python encourages procedural programming (when it fits, of course)

b) You can build the list directly:

  randomList = [random.randint(0, 100) for i in range(5)]

c) You can call methods in the same way you do in java:

largestInList = operator.findLargest(randomList)
smallestInList = operator.findSmallest(randomList)

d) You can use built in function, and the huge python library:

largestInList = max(randomList)
smallestInList = min(randomList)

e) If you still want to use a class, and you don't need self, you can use @staticmethod:

class findTheRange():
    @staticmethod
    def findLargest(_list):
        #stuff...

How to set limits for axes in ggplot2 R plots?

Basically you have two options

scale_x_continuous(limits = c(-5000, 5000))

or

coord_cartesian(xlim = c(-5000, 5000)) 

Where the first removes all data points outside the given range and the second only adjusts the visible area. In most cases you would not see the difference, but if you fit anything to the data it would probably change the fitted values.

You can also use the shorthand function xlim (or ylim), which like the first option removes data points outside of the given range:

+ xlim(-5000, 5000)

For more information check the description of coord_cartesian.

The RStudio cheatsheet for ggplot2 makes this quite clear visually. Here is a small section of that cheatsheet:

Cannot find control with name: formControlName in angular reactive form

For me even with [formGroup] the error was popping up "Cannot find control with name:''".
It got fixed when I added ngModel Value to the input box along with formControlName="fileName"

  <form class="upload-form" [formGroup]="UploadForm">
  <div class="row">
    <div class="form-group col-sm-6">
      <label for="fileName">File Name</label>
      <!-- *** *** *** Adding [(ngModel)]="FileName" fixed the issue-->
      <input type="text" class="form-control" id="fileName" [(ngModel)]="FileName"
        placeholder="Enter file name" formControlName="fileName"> 
    </div>
    <div class="form-group col-sm-6">
      <label for="selectedType">File Type</label>
      <select class="form-control" formControlName="selectedType" id="selectedType" 
        (change)="TypeChanged(selectedType)" name="selectedType" disabled="true">
        <option>Type 1</option>
        <option>Type 2</option>
      </select>
    </div>
  </div>
  <div class="form-group">
    <label for="fileUploader">Select {{selectedType}} file</label>
    <input type="file" class="form-control-file" id="fileUploader" (change)="onFileSelected($event)">
  </div>
  <div class="w-80 text-right mt-3">
    <button class="btn btn-primary mb-2 search-button cancel-button" (click)="cancelUpload()">Cancel</button>
    <button class="btn btn-primary mb-2 search-button" (click)="uploadFrmwrFile()">Upload</button>
  </div>
 </form>

And in the controller

ngOnInit() {
this.UploadForm= new FormGroup({
  fileName: new FormControl({value: this.FileName}),
  selectedType: new FormControl({value: this.selectedType, disabled: true}, Validators.required),
  frmwareFile: new FormControl({value: ['']})
});
}

How to use onSavedInstanceState example please

The Bundle is a container for all the information you want to save. You use the put* functions to insert data into it. Here's a short list (there are more) of put functions you can use to store data in the Bundle.

putString
putBoolean
putByte
putChar
putFloat
putLong
putShort
putParcelable (used for objects but they must implement Parcelable)

In your onCreate function, this Bundle is handed back to the program. The best way to check if the application is being reloaded, or started for the first time is:

if (savedInstanceState != null) {
    // Then the application is being reloaded
}

To get the data back out, use the get* functions just like the put* functions. The data is stored as a name-value pair. This is like a hashmap. You provide a key and the value, then when you want the value back, you give the key and the function gets the value. Here's a short example.

@Override
public void onSaveInstanceState(Bundle outState) {
   outState.putString("message", "This is my message to be reloaded");
   super.onSaveInstanceState(outState);
}

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    if (savedInstanceState != null) {
        String message = savedInstanceState.getString("message");
        Toast.makeText(this, message, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
    }
}

Your saved message will be toasted to the screen. Hope this helps.

Disable a textbox using CSS

You can't disable a textbox in CSS. Disabling it is not a presentational task, you will have to do this in the HTML markup using the disabled attribute.

You may be able to put something together by putting the textbox underneath an absolutely positioned transparent element with z-index... But that's just silly, plus you would need a second HTML element anyway.

You can, however, style disabled text boxes (if that's what you mean) in CSS using

input[disabled] { ... }

from IE7 upwards and in all other major browsers.

Merge r brings error "'by' must specify uniquely valid columns"

How do I vertical center text next to an image in html/css?

Since most of the answers to this question are between 2009 and 2014 (except for a comment in 2018), there should be an update to this.

I found a solution to the wrap-text problem brought up by Spongman on Jun 11 '14 at 23:20. He has an example here: jsfiddle.net/vPpD4

If you add the following in the CSS under the div tag in the jsfiddle.net/vPpD4 example, you get the desired wrap-text effect that I think Spongman was asking about. I don't know how far back this is applicable, but this works in all of the current (as of Dec 2020/Jan 2021) browsers available for Windows computers. Note: I have not tested this on the Apple Safari browser. I have also not tested this on any mobile devices.

    div img { 
        float: left;
    }
    .clearfix::after {
        content: ""; 
        clear: both;
        display: table;
    }

I also added a border around the image, just so that the reader will understand where the edge of the image is and why the text wraps as it does. The resulting example looks is here: http://jsfiddle.net/tqg7hLzk/

Is it possible to log all HTTP request headers with Apache?

If you're interested in seeing which specific headers a remote client is sending to your server, and you can cause the request to run a CGI script, then the simplest solution is to have your server script dump the environment variables into a file somewhere.

e.g. run the shell command "env > /tmp/headers" from within your script

Then, look for the environment variables that start with HTTP_...

You will see lines like:

HTTP_ACCEPT=text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8
HTTP_ACCEPT_ENCODING=gzip, deflate
HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE=en-US,en;q=0.5
HTTP_CACHE_CONTROL=max-age=0

Each of those represents a request header.

Note that the header names are modified from the actual request. For example, "Accept-Language" becomes "HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE", and so on.

How to parse JSON in Scala using standard Scala classes?

scala.util.parsing.json.JSON is deprecated.

Here is another approach with circe. FYI documentation: https://circe.github.io/circe/cursors.html

Add the dependency in build.sbt, I used scala 2.13.4, note the scala version must align with the library version.

val circeVersion = "0.14.0-M2"

libraryDependencies ++= Seq(
  "io.circe"  %% "circe-core"     % circeVersion,
  "io.circe"  %% "circe-generic"  % circeVersion,
  "io.circe"  %% "circe-parser"   % circeVersion
)

Example 1:

case class Person(name: String, age: Int)

object Main {
  def main(args: Array[String]): Unit = {
    val input =
      """
        |{
        |  "kind": "Listing",
        |  "data": [
        |    {
        |      "name": "Frodo",
        |      "age": 51
        |    },
        |    {
        |      "name": "Bilbo",
        |      "age": 60
        |    }
        |  ]
        |}
        |""".stripMargin

    implicit val decoderPerson: Decoder[Person] = deriveDecoder[Person] // decoder required to parse to custom object

    val parseResult: Json = circe.parser.parse(input).getOrElse(Json.Null)
    val data: ACursor = parseResult.hcursor.downField("data") // get the data field
    val personList: List[Person] = data.as[List[Person]].getOrElse(null) // parse the dataField to a list of Person
    for {
      person <- personList
    } println(person.name + " is " + person.age)
  }
}

Example 2, json has an object within an object:

case class Person(name: String, age: Int, position: Position)
case class Position(x: Int, y: Int)

object Main {
  def main(args: Array[String]): Unit = {
    val input =
      """
        |{
        |  "kind": "Listing",
        |  "data": [
        |    {
        |      "name": "Frodo",
        |      "age": 51,
        |      "position": {
        |        "x": 10,
        |        "y": 20
        |      }
        |    },
        |    {
        |      "name": "Bilbo",
        |      "age": 60,
        |      "position": {
        |        "x": 75,
        |        "y": 85
        |      }
        |    }
        |  ]
        |}
        |""".stripMargin

How to delete all data from solr and hbase

I came here looking to delete all documents from solr instance through .Net framework using SolrNet. Here is how I was able to do it:

Startup.Init<MyEntity>("http://localhost:8081/solr");
ISolrOperations<MyEntity> solr =
    ServiceLocator.Current.GetInstance<ISolrOperations<MyEntity>>();
SolrQuery sq = new SolrQuery("*:*");
solr.Delete(sq);
solr.Commit();

This has cleared all the documents. (I am not sure if this could be recovered, I am in learning and testing phase of Solr, so please consider backup before using this code)

How can I select rows by range?

For mysql you have limit, you can fire query as :

SELECT * FROM table limit 100` -- get 1st 100 records
SELECT * FROM table limit 100, 200` -- get 200 records beginning with row 101

For Oracle you can use rownum

See mysql select syntax and usage for limit here.

For SQLite, you have limit, offset. I haven't used SQLite but I checked it on SQLite Documentation. Check example for SQLite here.

How to export query result to csv in Oracle SQL Developer?

FYI to anyone who runs into problems, there is a bug in CSV timestamp export that I just spent a few hours working around. Some fields I needed to export were of type timestamp. It appears the CSV export option even in the current version (3.0.04 as of this posting) fails to put the grouping symbols around timestamps. Very frustrating since spaces in the timestamps broke my import. The best workaround I found was to write my query with a TO_CHAR() on all my timestamps, which yields the correct output, albeit with a little more work. I hope this saves someone some time or gets Oracle on the ball with their next release.

Mockito verify order / sequence of method calls

InOrder helps you to do that.

ServiceClassA firstMock = mock(ServiceClassA.class);
ServiceClassB secondMock = mock(ServiceClassB.class);

Mockito.doNothing().when(firstMock).methodOne();   
Mockito.doNothing().when(secondMock).methodTwo();  

//create inOrder object passing any mocks that need to be verified in order
InOrder inOrder = inOrder(firstMock, secondMock);

//following will make sure that firstMock was called before secondMock
inOrder.verify(firstMock).methodOne();
inOrder.verify(secondMock).methodTwo();

Difference between Console.Read() and Console.ReadLine()?

The difference of Read(),ReadLine() and Readkey() method are given below:

Read():This is static method in Console class:

int i = Console.Read();//it always return int value.
Console.WriteLine(i);

paste above code and give input '1', and the output will be 49. That is Console.Read give int value but that value will be the ASCII value of that.

ReadLine():

string s= Console.ReadLine();//it always return string value.
Console.WriteLine(s);

It gives the string as it is given in the input stream.

ReadKey(): this method is used to hold the output screen.when any key is press. Read() and ReadLine() is used the enter key for exit.

ASP.Net which user account running Web Service on IIS 7?

Look at the Identity of the Application Pool that's running your application. By default it will be the Network Service account, but you can change this.

At least that's how it works on 2003 server, don't know if some details have changed for 2008 server.

How to Generate a random number of fixed length using JavaScript?

I would go with this solution:

Math.floor(Math.random() * 899999 + 100000)

What does $ mean before a string?

The following example highlights various advantages of using interpolated strings over string.Format() as far as cleanliness and readability goes. It also shows that code within {} gets evaluated like any other function argument, just as it would if string.Format() we're being called.

using System;

public class Example
{
   public static void Main()
   {
      var name = "Horace";
      var age = 34;
      // replaces {name} with the value of name, "Horace"
      var s1 = $"He asked, \"Is your name {name}?\", but didn't wait for a reply.";
      Console.WriteLine(s1);

      // as age is an integer, we can use ":D3" to denote that
      // it should have leading zeroes and be 3 characters long
      // see https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/standard/base-types/how-to-pad-a-number-with-leading-zeros
      //
      // (age == 1 ? "" : "s") uses the ternary operator to 
      // decide the value used in the placeholder, the same 
      // as if it had been placed as an argument of string.Format
      //
      // finally, it shows that you can actually have quoted strings within strings
      // e.g. $"outer { "inner" } string"
      var s2 = $"{name} is {age:D3} year{(age == 1 ? "" : "s")} old.";
      Console.WriteLine(s2); 
   }
}
// The example displays the following output:
//       He asked, "Is your name Horace?", but didn't wait for a reply.
//       Horace is 034 years old.

Callback to a Fragment from a DialogFragment

Updated:

I made a library based on my gist code that generates those casting for you by using @CallbackFragment and @Callback.

https://github.com/zeroarst/callbackfragment.

And the example give you the example that send a callback from a fragment to another fragment.

Old answer:

I made a BaseCallbackFragment and annotation @FragmentCallback. It currently extends Fragment, you can change it to DialogFragment and will work. It checks the implementations with the following order: getTargetFragment() > getParentFragment() > context (activity).

Then you just need to extend it and declare your interfaces in your fragment and give it the annotation, and the base fragment will do the rest. The annotation also has a parameter mandatory for you to determine whether you want to force the fragment to implement the callback.

public class EchoFragment extends BaseCallbackFragment {

    private FragmentInteractionListener mListener;

    @FragmentCallback
    public interface FragmentInteractionListener {
        void onEcho(EchoFragment fragment, String echo);
    }
}

check if file exists in php

Based on your comment to Haim, is this a file on your own server? If so, you need to use the file system path, not url (e.g. file_exists( '/path/to/images/thumbnail.jpg' )).

How do I set a JLabel's background color?

You must set the setOpaque(true) to true other wise the background will not be painted to the form. I think from reading that if it is not set to true that it will paint some or not any of its pixels to the form. The background is transparent by default which seems odd to me at least but in the way of programming you have to set it to true as shown below.

      JLabel lb = new JLabel("Test");
      lb.setBackground(Color.red);
      lb.setOpaque(true); <--This line of code must be set to true or otherwise the 

From the JavaDocs

setOpaque

public void setOpaque(boolean isOpaque)
  If true the component paints every pixel within its bounds. Otherwise, 
  the component may not paint some or all of its pixels, allowing the underlying 
  pixels to show through.
  The default value of this property is false for JComponent. However, 
  the default value for this property on most standard JComponent subclasses 
   (such as JButton and JTree) is look-and-feel dependent.

Parameters:
isOpaque - true if this component should be opaque
See Also:
isOpaque()

how to convert a string date to date format in oracle10g

You can convert a string to a DATE using the TO_DATE function, then reformat the date as another string using TO_CHAR, i.e.:

SELECT TO_CHAR(
         TO_DATE('15/August/2009,4:30 PM'
                ,'DD/Month/YYYY,HH:MI AM')
       ,'DD-MM-YYYY')
FROM DUAL;

15-08-2009

For example, if your table name is MYTABLE and the varchar2 column is MYDATESTRING:

SELECT TO_CHAR(
         TO_DATE(MYDATESTRING
                ,'DD/Month/YYYY,HH:MI AM')
       ,'DD-MM-YYYY')
FROM MYTABLE;

Can I run HTML files directly from GitHub, instead of just viewing their source?

You can do this easily by Modifying Response Headers which can be done with Chrome and Firefox extension like Requestly.

In Chrome and Firefox:

  1. Install Requestly for Chrome and Requestly for Firefox

  2. Add the following Headers Modification Rules:

    enter image description here

    a) Content-Type:

    • Modify
    • Response
    • Header: Content-Type
    • Value: text/html
    • Source Url Matches: /raw\.githubusercontent\.com/.*\.html/


    b) Content-Security-Policy:

    • Modify
    • Response
    • Header: Content-Security-Policy
    • Value: default-src 'none'; style-src 'self' 'unsafe-inline'; img-src 'self' data:; script-src * 'unsafe-eval';
    • Source Url Matches: /raw\.githubusercontent\.com/.*\.html/

How to get phpmyadmin username and password

I had a problem with this. I didn't even create any passwords so I was confused. I googled it and I found out that I should just write root as username and than click GO. I hope it helps.

How do I base64 encode (decode) in C?

But you can also do it in openssl (openssl enc command does it....), look at the BIO_f_base64() function

How to correct TypeError: Unicode-objects must be encoded before hashing?

To store the password (PY3):

import hashlib, os
password_salt = os.urandom(32).hex()
password = '12345'

hash = hashlib.sha512()
hash.update(('%s%s' % (password_salt, password)).encode('utf-8'))
password_hash = hash.hexdigest()

Should I use .done() and .fail() for new jQuery AJAX code instead of success and error

In simple words

$.ajax("info.txt").done(function(data) {
  alert(data);
}).fail(function(data){
  alert("Try again champ!");
});

if its get the info.text then it will alert and whatever function you add or if any how unable to retrieve info.text from the server then alert or error function.

MySQL timezone change?

This works fine

      $con->query("SET time_zone = '+05:30'");
      $con->query("SET @@session.time_zone = '+05:30'");
?>

Get Value From Select Option in Angular 4

This is very simple actually.

Please notice that I'm

I. adding name="selectedCorp" to your select opening tag, and

II. changing your [value]="corporationObj" to [value]="corporation", which is consistent with the corporation in your *ngFor="let corporation of corporations" statement:

 <form class="form-inline" (ngSubmit)="HelloCorp(f)" #f="ngForm">
   <div class="select">
     <select class="form-control col-lg-8" #corporation name="selectedCorp" required>
       <option *ngFor="let corporation of corporations" [value]="corporation">{{corporation.corp_name}}</option>
     </select>
     <button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary manage">Submit</button>
   </div>
 </form>

And then in your .ts file, you just do the following:

HelloCorp(form: NgForm) {
   const corporationObj = form.value.selectedCorp;
}

and the const corporationObj now is the selected corporation object, which will include all the properties of the corporation class you have defined.

NOTE:

In the html code, by the statement [value]="corporation", the corporation (from *ngFor="let corporation of corporations") is bound to [value], and the name property will get the value.

Since the name is "selectedCorp", you can get the actual value by getting "form.value.selectedCorp" in your .ts file.

By the way, actually you don't need the "#corporation" in your "select" opening tag.

package android.support.v4.app does not exist ; in Android studio 0.8

tl;dr Remove all unused modules which have a dependency on the support library from your settings.gradle.

Long version:

In our case we had declared the support library as a dependency for all of our modules (one app module and multiple library modules) in a common.gradle file which is imported by every module. However there was one library module which wasn't declared as a dependency for any other module and therefore wasn't build. In every few syncs Android Studio would pick that exact module as the one where to look for the support library (that's why it appeared to happen randomly for us). As this module was never used it never got build which in turn caused the jar file not being in the intermediates folder of the module.

Removing this library module from settings.gradle and syncing again fixed the problem for us.

How to throw std::exceptions with variable messages?

Maybe this?

throw std::runtime_error(
    (std::ostringstream()
        << "Could not load config file '"
        << configfile
        << "'"
    ).str()
);

It creates a temporary ostringstream, calls the << operators as necessary and then you wrap that in round brackets and call the .str() function on the evaluated result (which is an ostringstream) to pass a temporary std::string to the constructor of runtime_error.

Note: the ostringstream and the string are r-value temporaries and so go out of scope after this line ends. Your exception object's constructor MUST take the input string using either copy or (better) move semantics.

Additional: I don't necessarily consider this approach "best practice", but it does work and can be used at a pinch. One of the biggest issues is that this method requires heap allocations and so the operator << can throw. You probably don't want that happening; however, if your get into that state your probably have way more issues to worry about!

Pros/cons of using redux-saga with ES6 generators vs redux-thunk with ES2017 async/await

Having reviewed a few different large scale React/Redux projects in my experience Sagas provide developers a more structured way of writing code that is much easier to test and harder to get wrong.

Yes it is a little wierd to start with, but most devs get enough of an understanding of it in a day. I always tell people to not worry about what yield does to start with and that once you write a couple of test it will come to you.

I have seen a couple of projects where thunks have been treated as if they are controllers from the MVC patten and this quickly becomes an unmaintable mess.

My advice is to use Sagas where you need A triggers B type stuff relating to a single event. For anything that could cut across a number of actions, I find it is simpler to write customer middleware and use the meta property of an FSA action to trigger it.

Execute action when back bar button of UINavigationController is pressed

jquery UI dialog: how to initialize without a title bar?

This is How it can be done.

Go to themes folder--> base--> open jquery.ui.dialog.css

Find

Followings

if you don't want to display titleBar then simply set display:none as i did in the following.

.ui dialog.ui-dialog .ui-dialog-titlebar 
{
    padding: .4em 1em;
    position: relative;
        display:none;
}

Samilarly for title as well.

.ui-dialog .ui-dialog-title {
    float: left;
    margin: .1em 0;
    white-space: nowrap;
    width: 90%;
    overflow: hidden;
    text-overflow: ellipsis;
    display:none; 
}

Now comes close button you can also set it none or you can set its

.ui-dialog .ui-dialog-titlebar-close {
    position: absolute;
    right: .3em;
    top: 50%;
    width: 21px;
    margin: -10px 0 0 0;
    padding: 1px;
    height: 20px;

   display:none;

}

I did lots of search but nothing then i got this idea in my mind. However this will effect entire application to don't have close button,title bar for dialog but you can overcome this as well by using jquery and adding and setting css via jquery

here is syntax for this

$(".specificclass").css({display:normal})

Is it better to use NOT or <> when comparing values?

The latter (<>), because the meaning of the former isn't clear unless you have a perfect understanding of the order of operations as it applies to the Not and = operators: a subtlety which is easy to miss.

How to change the Push and Pop animations in a navigation based app

How to change the Push and Pop animations in a navigation based app...

For 2019, the "final answer!"

Preamble:

Say you are new to iOS development. Confusingly, Apple provide two transitions which can be used easily. These are: "crossfade" and "flip".

But of course, "crossfade" and "flip" are useless. They are never used. Nobody knows why Apple provided those two useless transitions!

So:

Say you want to do an ordinary, common, transition such as "slide". In that case, you have to do a HUGE amount of work!.

That work, is explained in this post.

Just to repeat:

Surprisingly: with iOS, if you want the simplest, most common, everyday transitions (such as an ordinary slide), you do have to all the work of implementing a full custom transition.

Here's how to do it ...

1. You need a custom UIViewControllerAnimatedTransitioning

  1. You need a bool of your own like popStyle . (Is it popping on, or popping off?)

  2. You must include transitionDuration (trivial) and the main call, animateTransition

  3. In fact you must write two different routines for inside animateTransition. One for the push, and one for the pop. Probably name them animatePush and animatePop. Inside animateTransition, just branch on popStyle to the two routines

  4. The example below does a simple move-over/move-off

  5. In your animatePush and animatePop routines. You must get the "from view" and the "to view". (How to do that, is shown in the code example.)

  6. and you must addSubview for the new "to" view.

  7. and you must call completeTransition at the end of your anime

So ..

  class SimpleOver: NSObject, UIViewControllerAnimatedTransitioning {
        
        var popStyle: Bool = false
        
        func transitionDuration(
            using transitionContext: UIViewControllerContextTransitioning?) -> TimeInterval {
            return 0.20
        }
        
        func animateTransition(using transitionContext: UIViewControllerContextTransitioning) {
            
            if popStyle {
                
                animatePop(using: transitionContext)
                return
            }
            
            let fz = transitionContext.viewController(forKey: UITransitionContextViewControllerKey.from)!
            let tz = transitionContext.viewController(forKey: UITransitionContextViewControllerKey.to)!
            
            let f = transitionContext.finalFrame(for: tz)
            
            let fOff = f.offsetBy(dx: f.width, dy: 55)
            tz.view.frame = fOff
            
            transitionContext.containerView.insertSubview(tz.view, aboveSubview: fz.view)
            
            UIView.animate(
                withDuration: transitionDuration(using: transitionContext),
                animations: {
                    tz.view.frame = f
            }, completion: {_ in 
                    transitionContext.completeTransition(true)
            })
        }
        
        func animatePop(using transitionContext: UIViewControllerContextTransitioning) {
            
            let fz = transitionContext.viewController(forKey: UITransitionContextViewControllerKey.from)!
            let tz = transitionContext.viewController(forKey: UITransitionContextViewControllerKey.to)!
            
            let f = transitionContext.initialFrame(for: fz)
            let fOffPop = f.offsetBy(dx: f.width, dy: 55)
            
            transitionContext.containerView.insertSubview(tz.view, belowSubview: fz.view)
            
            UIView.animate(
                withDuration: transitionDuration(using: transitionContext),
                animations: {
                    fz.view.frame = fOffPop
            }, completion: {_ in 
                    transitionContext.completeTransition(true)
            })
        }
    }

And then ...

2. Use it in your view controller.

Note: strangely, you only have to do this in the "first" view controller. (The one which is "underneath".)

With the one that you pop on top, do nothing. Easy.

So your class...

class SomeScreen: UIViewController {
}

becomes...

class FrontScreen: UIViewController,
        UIViewControllerTransitioningDelegate, UINavigationControllerDelegate {
    
    let simpleOver = SimpleOver()
    

    override func viewDidLoad() {
        
        super.viewDidLoad()
        navigationController?.delegate = self
    }

    func navigationController(
        _ navigationController: UINavigationController,
        animationControllerFor operation: UINavigationControllerOperation,
        from fromVC: UIViewController,
        to toVC: UIViewController) -> UIViewControllerAnimatedTransitioning? {
        
        simpleOver.popStyle = (operation == .pop)
        return simpleOver
    }
}

That's it.

Push and pop exactly as normal, no change. To push ...

let n = UIStoryboard(name: "nextScreenStoryboardName", bundle: nil)
          .instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "nextScreenStoryboardID")
          as! NextScreen
navigationController?.pushViewController(n, animated: true)

and to pop it, you can if you like just do that on the next screen:

class NextScreen: TotallyOrdinaryUIViewController {
    
    @IBAction func userClickedBackOrDismissOrSomethingLikeThat() {
        
        navigationController?.popViewController(animated: true)
    }
}

Phew.

VBA - how to conditionally skip a for loop iteration

VBA does not have a Continue or any other equivalent keyword to immediately jump to the next loop iteration. I would suggest a judicious use of Goto as a workaround, especially if this is just a contrived example and your real code is more complicated:

For i = LBound(Schedule, 1) To UBound(Schedule, 1)
    If (Schedule(i, 1) < ReferenceDate) Then
        PrevCouponIndex = i
        Goto NextIteration
    End If
    DF = Application.Run("SomeFunction"....)
    PV = PV + (DF * Coupon / CouponFrequency)
    '....'
    'a whole bunch of other code you are not showing us'
    '....'

If that is really all of your code, though, @Brian is absolutely correct. Just put an Else clause in your If statement and be done with it.

Passing variables in remote ssh command

As answered previously, you do not need to set the environment variable on the remote host. Instead, you can simply do the meta-expansion on the local host, and pass the value to the remote host.

ssh [email protected] '~/tools/run_pvt.pl $BUILD_NUMBER'

If you really want to set the environment variable on the remote host and use it, you can use the env program

ssh [email protected] "env BUILD_NUMBER=$BUILD_NUMBER ~/tools/run_pvt.pl \$BUILD_NUMBER"

In this case this is a bit of an overkill, and note

  • env BUILD_NUMBER=$BUILD_NUMBER does the meta expansion on the local host
  • the remote BUILD_NUMBER environment variable will be used by
    the remote shell

maven... Failed to clean project: Failed to delete ..\org.ow2.util.asm-asm-tree-3.1.jar

Probably there are many processes that use sources compiled, could be a server, an old maven instruction or IDE. Sure terminate all processes, stop the server and then execute maven again. If the problem persists, you should close java.exe process.

How do you convert a jQuery object into a string?

If you want to stringify an HTML element in order to pass it somewhere and parse it back to an element try by creating a unique query for the element:

// 'e' is a circular object that can't be stringify
var e = document.getElementById('MyElement')

// now 'e_str' is a unique query for this element that can be stringify 
var e_str = e.tagName
  + ( e.id != "" ? "#" + e.id : "")
  + ( e.className != "" ? "." + e.className.replace(' ','.') : "");

//now you can stringify your element to JSON string
var e_json = JSON.stringify({
  'element': e_str
})

than

//parse it back to an object
var obj = JSON.parse( e_json )

//finally connect the 'obj.element' varible to it's element
obj.element = document.querySelector( obj.element )

//now the 'obj.element' is the actual element and you can click it for example:
obj.element.click();

What does the 'u' symbol mean in front of string values?

This is a feature, not a bug.

How to compare files from two different branches?

Agreeing with the answer suggested by @dahlbyk. If you want the diff to be written to a diff file for code reviews use the following command.

git diff branch master -- filepath/filename.extension > filename.diff --cached

OPENSSL file_get_contents(): Failed to enable crypto

Had same problem - it was somewhere in the ca certificate, so I used the ca bundle used for curl, and it worked. You can download the curl ca bundle here: https://curl.haxx.se/docs/caextract.html

For encryption and security issues see this helpful article:
https://www.venditan.com/labs/2014/06/26/ssl-and-php-streams-part-1-you-are-doing-it-wrongtm/432

Here is the example:

    $url = 'https://www.example.com/api/list';
    $cn_match = 'www.example.com';

    $data = array (     
        'apikey' => '[example api key here]',               
        'limit' => intval($limit),
        'offset' => intval($offset)
        );

    // use key 'http' even if you send the request to https://...
    $options = array(
        'http' => array(
            'header'  => "Content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded\r\n",
            'method'  => 'POST',                
            'content' => http_build_query($data)                
            )
        , 'ssl' => array(
            'verify_peer' => true,
            'cafile' => [path to file] . "cacert.pem",
            'ciphers' => 'HIGH:TLSv1.2:TLSv1.1:TLSv1.0:!SSLv3:!SSLv2',
            'CN_match' => $cn_match,
            'disable_compression' => true,
            )
        );

    $context  = stream_context_create($options);
    $response = file_get_contents($url, false, $context);

Hope that helps

Arduino Tools > Serial Port greyed out

sudo arduino is the only way I get the Arduino IDE working (serial port and upload) on ubuntu 12.04 (64) Indeed the serial port to use is /dev/ttyACM0 in my case too. The other two (ttyS4 and ttyS0) gave an error when trying to upload to Uno. Have fun
