Programs & Examples On #Httpbuilder

HTTPBuilder is a wrapper for Apache's HttpClient, with some (actually, a lot of) Groovy syntactical sugar thrown on top. The request/response model is also inspired by Prototype.js' Ajax.Request.

Groovy built-in REST/HTTP client?

import groovyx.net.http.HTTPBuilder;

public class HttpclassgetrRoles {
     static void main(String[] args){
         def baseUrl = new URL('http://test.city.com/api/Cirtxyz/GetUser')

         HttpURLConnection connection = (HttpURLConnection) baseUrl.openConnection();
         connection.addRequestProperty("Accept", "application/json")
         connection.with {
           doOutput = true
           requestMethod = 'GET'
           println content.text
         }

     }
}

The requested resource does not support HTTP method 'GET'

In my case, the route signature was different from the method parameter. I had id, but I was accepting documentId as parameter, that caused the problem.

[Route("Documents/{id}")]   <--- caused the webapi error
[Route("Documents/{documentId}")] <-- solved
public Document Get(string documentId)
{
  ..
}

npm WARN notsup SKIPPING OPTIONAL DEPENDENCY: Unsupported platform for [email protected]

This still appears to be an issue, causing package installations to be aborted with warnings about optional packages no being installed because of "Unsupported platform".

The problem relates to the "shrinkwrap" or package-lock.json which gets persisted after every package manager execution. Subsequent attempts keep failing as this file is referenced instead of package.json.

Adding these options to the npm install command should allow packages to install again.

   --no-optional argument will prevent optional dependencies from being installed.

   --no-shrinkwrap argument, which will ignore an available package lock or
                   shrinkwrap file and use the package.json instead.

   --no-package-lock argument will prevent npm from creating a package-lock.json file.

The complete command looks like this:

    npm install --no-optional --no-shrinkwrap --no-package-lock

Angular 2 optional route parameter

rerezz's answer is pretty nice but it has one serious flaw. It causes User component to re-run the ngOnInit method.

It might be problematic when you do some heavy stuff there and don't want it to be re-run when you switch from the non-parametric route to the parametric one. Though those two routes are meant to imitate an optional url parameter, not become 2 separate routes.

Here's what I suggest to solve the problem:

const routes = [
  {
    path: '/user',
    component: User,
    children: [
      { path: ':id', component: UserWithParam, name: 'Usernew' }
    ]
  }
];

Then you can move the logic responsible for handling the param to the UserWithParam component and leave the base logic in the User component. Whatever you do in User::ngOnInit won't be run again when you navigate from /user to /user/123.

Don't forget to put the <router-outlet></router-outlet> in the User's template.

How to get history on react-router v4?

This works! https://reacttraining.com/react-router/web/api/withRouter

import { withRouter } from 'react-router-dom';

class MyComponent extends React.Component {
  render () {
    this.props.history;
  }
}

withRouter(MyComponent);

Is it possible to set an object to null?

An object of a class cannot be set to NULL; however, you can set a pointer (which contains a memory address of an object) to NULL.

Example of what you can't do which you are asking:

Cat c;
c = NULL;//Compiling error

Example of what you can do:

Cat c;
//Set p to hold the memory address of the object c
Cat *p = &c;
//Set p to hold NULL
p = NULL;

phpexcel to download

posible you already solved your problem, any way i hope this help you.

all files downloaded starts with empty line, in my case where four empty lines, and it make a problem. No matter if you work with readfile(); or save('php://output');, This can be fixed with adding ob_start(); at the beginning of the script and ob_end_clean(); just before the readfile(); or save('php://output');.

Lining up labels with radio buttons in bootstrap

In Bootstrap 4 you can use the form-check-inline class.

<div class="form-check form-check-inline">
  <input class="form-check-input" type="radio" name="queryFieldName" id="option1" value="1">
  <label class="form-check-label" for="option1">First</label>
</div>
<div class="form-check form-check-inline">
  <input class="form-check-input" type="radio" name="queryFieldName" id="option2" value="2">
  <label class="form-check-label" for="option2">Second</label>
</div>

facebook Uncaught OAuthException: An active access token must be used to query information about the current user

So I had the same issue, but it was because I was saving the access token but not using it. It could be because I'm super sleepy because of due dates, or maybe I just didn't think about it! But in case anyone else is in the same situation:

When I log in the user I save the access token:

$facebook = new Facebook(array(
    'appId' => <insert the app id you get from facebook here>,
    'secret' => <insert the app secret you get from facebook here>
));

$accessToken = $facebook->getAccessToken();
//save the access token for later

Now when I make requests to facebook I just do something like this:

$facebook = new Facebook(array(
    'appId' => <insert the app id you get from facebook here>,
    'secret' => <insert the app secret you get from facebook here>
));

$facebook->setAccessToken($accessToken);
$facebook->api(... insert own code here ...)

(XML) The markup in the document following the root element must be well-formed. Start location: 6:2

After insuring that the string "strOutput" has a correct XML structure, you can do this:

Matcher junkMatcher = (Pattern.compile("^([\\W]+)<")).matcher(strOutput);
strOutput = junkMatcher.replaceFirst("<");

ERROR Error: Uncaught (in promise), Cannot match any routes. URL Segment

In case you need the [] syntax, useful for "edit forms" when you need to pass parameters like id with the route, you would do something like:

[routerLink]="['edit', business._id]"

As for an "about page" with no parameters like yours,

[routerLink]="/about"

or

[routerLink]=['about']

will do the trick.

can't multiply sequence by non-int of type 'float'

Because growthRates is a sequence (you're even iterating it!) and you multiply it by (1 + 0.01), which is obviously a float (1.01). I guess you mean for growthRate in growthRates: ... * growthrate?

"405 method not allowed" in IIS7.5 for "PUT" method

In my case I had relocated Web Deploy to another port, which was also the IIS port (not 80). I didn't realize at first, but even though there were no errors running both under the same port, seems Web Deploy was most likely responding first instead of IIS for some reason, causing this error. I just moved my IIS binding to another port and all is well. ;)

Volley JsonObjectRequest Post request not working

You can create a custom JSONObjectReuqest and override the getParams method, or you can provide them in the constructor as a JSONObject to be put in the body of the request.

Like this (I edited your code):

JSONObject obj = new JSONObject();
obj.put("id", "1");
obj.put("name", "myname");

RequestQueue queue = MyVolley.getRequestQueue();
JsonObjectRequest jsObjRequest = new JsonObjectRequest(Request.Method.POST,SPHERE_URL,obj,
    new Response.Listener<JSONObject>() {
        @Override
        public void onResponse(JSONObject response) {
             System.out.println(response);
             hideProgressDialog();
        }
    },
    new Response.ErrorListener() {
        @Override
        public void onErrorResponse(VolleyError error) {
             hideProgressDialog();
        }
    });
queue.add(jsObjRequest);

Compress files while reading data from STDIN

gzip > stdin.gz perhaps? Otherwise, you need to flesh out your question.

A connection was successfully established with the server, but then an error occurred during the login process. (Error Number: 233)

In my case I had the following by mistake in my connection string:

Encrypt=True

Changing to

Encrypt=False

Solved the problem

"Server=***;Initial Catalog=***;Persist Security Info=False;User  ID=***;Password=***;MultipleActiveResultSets=False;Encrypt=False;TrustServerCertificate=False;Connection Timeout=30;"

How can I get my Twitter Bootstrap buttons to right align?

Using the Bootstrap pull-right helper didn't work for us because it uses float: right, which forces inline-block elements to become block. And when the .btns become block, they lose the natural margin that inline-block was providing them as quasi-textual elements.

So instead we used direction: rtl; on the parent element, which causes the text inside that element to layout from right to left, and that causes inline-block elements to layout from right to left, too. You can use LESS like the following to prevent children from being laid out rtl too:

/* Flow the inline-block .btn starting from the right. */
.btn-container-right {
  direction: rtl;

  * {
    direction: ltr;
  }
}

and use it like:

<div class="btn-container-right">
    <button class="btn">Click Me</button>
</div>

How to set value of input text using jQuery

Here is another variation for a file upload that has a nicer looking bootstrap button than the default file upload browse button. This is the html:

<div class="form-group">
        @Html.LabelFor(model => model.FileName, htmlAttributes: new { @class = "col-md-2  control-label" })
        <div class="col-md-1 btn btn-sn btn-primary" id="browseButton" onclick="$(this).parent().find('input[type=file]').click();">browse</div>
        <div class="col-md-7">
            <input id="fileSpace" name="uploaded_file"  type="file" style="display: none;">   @*style="display: none;"*@
            @Html.EditorFor(model => model.FileName, new { htmlAttributes = new { @class = "form-control", @id = "modelField"} })
            @Html.ValidationMessageFor(model => model.FileName, "", new { @class = "text-danger" })
        </div>
    </div>

Here is the script:

        $('#fileSpace').on("change", function () {
        $("#modelField").val($('input[name="uploaded_file"]').val());

How can I resize an image using Java?

The Java API does not provide a standard scaling feature for images and downgrading image quality.

Because of this I tried to use cvResize from JavaCV but it seems to cause problems.

I found a good library for image scaling: simply add the dependency for "java-image-scaling" in your pom.xml.

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.mortennobel</groupId>
    <artifactId>java-image-scaling</artifactId>
    <version>0.8.6</version>
</dependency>

In the maven repository you will get the recent version for this.

Ex. In your java program

ResampleOp resamOp = new ResampleOp(50, 40);
BufferedImage modifiedImage = resamOp.filter(originalBufferedImage, null);

How to change a DIV padding without affecting the width/height ?

Sounds like you're looking to simulate the IE6 box model. You could use the CSS 3 property box-sizing: border-box to achieve this. This is supported by IE8, but for Firefox you would need to use -moz-box-sizing and for Safari/Chrome, use -webkit-box-sizing.

IE6 already computes the height wrong, so you're good in that browser, but I'm not sure about IE7, I think it will compute the height the same in quirks mode.

Oracle : how to subtract two dates and get minutes of the result

When you subtract two dates in Oracle, you get the number of days between the two values. So you just have to multiply to get the result in minutes instead:

SELECT (date2 - date1) * 24 * 60 AS minutesBetween

How to unset a JavaScript variable?

ECMAScript 2015 offers Reflect API. It is possible to delete object property with Reflect.deleteProperty():

Reflect.deleteProperty(myObject, 'myProp');
// it is equivalent to:
delete myObject.myProp;
delete myObject['myProp'];

To delete property of global window object:

Reflect.deleteProperty(window, 'some_var');

In some cases properties cannot be deleted (when the property is not configurable) and then this function returns false (as well as delete operator). In other cases returns true:

Object.defineProperty(window, 'some_var', {
    configurable: false,
    writable: true,
    enumerable: true,
    value: 'some_val'
});

var frozen = Object.freeze({ myProperty: 'myValue' });
var regular = { myProperty: 'myValue' };
var blank = {};

console.log(Reflect.deleteProperty(window, 'some_var')); // false
console.log(window.some_var); // some_var

console.log(Reflect.deleteProperty(frozen, 'myProperty')); // false
console.log(frozen.myProperty); // myValue

console.log(Reflect.deleteProperty(regular, 'myProperty')); // true
console.log(regular.myProperty); // undefined

console.log(Reflect.deleteProperty(blank, 'notExistingProperty')); // true
console.log(blank.notExistingProperty); // undefined

There is a difference between deleteProperty function and delete operator when run in strict mode:

'use strict'

var frozen = Object.freeze({ myProperty: 'myValue' });

Reflect.deleteProperty(frozen, 'myProperty'); // false
delete frozen.myProperty;
// TypeError: property "myProperty" is non-configurable and can't be deleted

CORS - How do 'preflight' an httprequest?

Although this thread dates back to 2014, the issue can still be current to many of us. Here is how I dealt with it in a jQuery 1.12 /PHP 5.6 context:

  • jQuery sent its XHR request using only limited headers; only 'Origin' was sent.
  • No preflight request was needed.
  • The server only had to detect such a request, and add the "Access-Control-Allow-Origin: " . $_SERVER['HTTP_ORIGIN'] header, after detecting that this was a cross-origin XHR.

PHP Code sample:

if (!empty($_SERVER['HTTP_ORIGIN'])) {
    // Uh oh, this XHR comes from outer space...
    // Use this opportunity to filter out referers that shouldn't be allowed to see this request
    if (!preg_match('@\.partner\.domain\.net$@'))
        die("End of the road if you're not my business partner.");

    // otherwise oblige
    header("Access-Control-Allow-Origin: " . $_SERVER['HTTP_ORIGIN']);
}
else {
    // local request, no need to send a specific header for CORS
}

In particular, don't add an exit; as no preflight is needed.

IntelliJ - show where errors are

Plotting time in Python with Matplotlib

7 years later and this code has helped me. However, my times still were not showing up correctly.

enter image description here

Using Matplotlib 2.0.0 and I had to add the following bit of code from Editing the date formatting of x-axis tick labels in matplotlib by Paul H.

import matplotlib.dates as mdates
myFmt = mdates.DateFormatter('%d')
ax.xaxis.set_major_formatter(myFmt)

I changed the format to (%H:%M) and the time displayed correctly. enter image description here

All thanks to the community.

Java - Get a list of all Classes loaded in the JVM

There are multiple answers to this question, partly due to ambiguous question - the title is talking about classes loaded by the JVM, whereas the contents of the question says "may or may not be loaded by the JVM".

Assuming that OP needs classes that are loaded by the JVM by a given classloader, and only those classes - my need as well - there is a solution (elaborated here) that goes like this:

import java.net.URL;
import java.util.Enumeration;
import java.util.Iterator;
import java.util.Vector;

public class CPTest {

    private static Iterator list(ClassLoader CL)
        throws NoSuchFieldException, SecurityException,
        IllegalArgumentException, IllegalAccessException {
        Class CL_class = CL.getClass();
        while (CL_class != java.lang.ClassLoader.class) {
            CL_class = CL_class.getSuperclass();
        }
        java.lang.reflect.Field ClassLoader_classes_field = CL_class
                .getDeclaredField("classes");
        ClassLoader_classes_field.setAccessible(true);
        Vector classes = (Vector) ClassLoader_classes_field.get(CL);
        return classes.iterator();
    }

    public static void main(String args[]) throws Exception {
        ClassLoader myCL = Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader();
        while (myCL != null) {
            System.out.println("ClassLoader: " + myCL);
            for (Iterator iter = list(myCL); iter.hasNext();) {
                System.out.println("\t" + iter.next());
            }
            myCL = myCL.getParent();
        }
    }

}

One of the neat things about it is that you can choose an arbitrary classloader you want to check. It is however likely to break should internals of classloader class change, so it is to be used as one-off diagnostic tool.

Git undo local branch delete

You can use git reflog to find the SHA1 of the last commit of the branch. From that point, you can recreate a branch using

git branch branchName <sha1>

Edit: As @seagullJS says, the branch -D command tells you the sha1, so if you haven't closed the terminal yet it becomes real easy. For example this deletes and then immediately restores a branch named master2:

user@MY-PC /C/MyRepo (master)
$ git branch -D master2
Deleted branch master2 (was 130d7ba).    <-- This is the SHA1 we need to restore it!

user@MY-PC /C/MyRepo (master)
$ git branch master2 130d7ba

REST URI convention - Singular or plural name of resource while creating it

The premise of using /resources is that it is representing "all" resources. If you do a GET /resources, you will likely return the entire collection. By POSTing to /resources, you are adding to the collection.

However, the individual resources are available at /resource. If you do a GET /resource, you will likely error, as this request doesn't make any sense, whereas /resource/123 makes perfect sense.

Using /resource instead of /resources is similar to how you would do this if you were working with, say, a file system and a collection of files and /resource is the "directory" with the individual 123, 456 files in it.

Neither way is right or wrong, go with what you like best.

Eclipse error, "The selection cannot be launched, and there are no recent launches"

Eclipse can't work out what you want to run and since you've not run anything before, it can't try re-running that either.

Instead of clicking the green 'run' button, click the dropdown next to it and chose Run Configurations. On the Android tab, make sure it's set to your project. In the Target tab, set the tick box and options as appropriate to target your device. Then click Run. Keep an eye on your Console tab in Eclipse - that'll let you know what's going on. Once you've got your run configuration set, you can just hit the green 'run' button next time.

Sometimes getting everything to talk to your device can be problematic to begin with. Consider using an AVD (i.e. an emulator) as alternative, at least to begin with if you have problems. You can easily create one from the menu Window -> Android Virtual Device Manager within Eclipse.

To view the progress of your project being installed and started on your device, check the console. It's a panel within Eclipse with the tabs Problems/Javadoc/Declaration/Console/LogCat etc. It may be minimised - check the tray in the bottom right. Or just use Window/Show View/Console from the menu to make it come to the front. There are two consoles, Android and DDMS - there is a dropdown by its icon where you can switch.

how to bind img src in angular 2 in ngFor?

Angular 2 and Angular 4 

In a ngFor loop it must be look like this:

<div class="column" *ngFor="let u of events ">
                <div class="thumb">
                    <img src="assets/uploads/{{u.image}}">
                    <h4>{{u.name}}</h4>
                </div>
                <div class="info">
                    <img src="assets/uploads/{{u.image}}">
                    <h4>{{u.name}}</h4>
                    <p>{{u.text}}</p>
                </div>
            </div>

Go Back to Previous Page

We can show a back button using html code in our pages which can take the browser window to the previous page. This page will have a button or a link and by clicking it browser will return to previous page. This can be done by using html or by using JavaScript in the client side.

Here is the code of this button

<INPUT TYPE="button" VALUE="Back" onClick="history.go(-1);">

Using JavaScript

We can use JavaScript to create a link to take us back to previous or history page. Here is the code to move back the browser using client side JavaScript.

<a href = "javascript:history.back()">Back to previous page</a>

Oracle PL/SQL : remove "space characters" from a string

Since you're comfortable with regular expressions, you probably want to use the REGEXP_REPLACE function. If you want to eliminate anything that matches the [:space:] POSIX class

REGEXP_REPLACE( my_value, '[[:space:]]', '' )


SQL> ed
Wrote file afiedt.buf

  1  select '|' ||
  2         regexp_replace( 'foo ' || chr(9), '[[:space:]]', '' ) ||
  3         '|'
  4*   from dual
SQL> /

'|'||
-----
|foo|

If you want to leave one space in place for every set of continuous space characters, just add the + to the regular expression and use a space as the replacement character.

with x as (
  select 'abc 123  234     5' str
    from dual
)
select regexp_replace( str, '[[:space:]]+', ' ' )
  from x

CSS '>' selector; what is it?

As others have said, it's a direct child, but it's worth noting that this is different to just leaving a space... a space is for any descendant.

<div>
  <span>Some text</span>
</div>

div>span would match this, but it would not match this:

<div>
  <p><span>Some text</span></p>
</div>

To match that, you could do div>p>span or div span.

Difference between objectForKey and valueForKey?

objectForKey: is an NSDictionary method. An NSDictionary is a collection class similar to an NSArray, except instead of using indexes, it uses keys to differentiate between items. A key is an arbitrary string you provide. No two objects can have the same key (just as no two objects in an NSArray can have the same index).

valueForKey: is a KVC method. It works with ANY class. valueForKey: allows you to access a property using a string for its name. So for instance, if I have an Account class with a property accountNumber, I can do the following:

NSNumber *anAccountNumber = [NSNumber numberWithInt:12345];
Account *newAccount = [[Account alloc] init];

[newAccount setAccountNumber:anAccountNUmber];

NSNumber *anotherAccountNumber = [newAccount accountNumber];

Using KVC, I can access the property dynamically:

NSNumber *anAccountNumber = [NSNumber numberWithInt:12345];
Account *newAccount = [[Account alloc] init];

[newAccount setValue:anAccountNumber forKey:@"accountNumber"];

NSNumber *anotherAccountNumber = [newAccount valueForKey:@"accountNumber"];

Those are equivalent sets of statements.

I know you're thinking: wow, but sarcastically. KVC doesn't look all that useful. In fact, it looks "wordy". But when you want to change things at runtime, you can do lots of cool things that are much more difficult in other languages (but this is beyond the scope of your question).

If you want to learn more about KVC, there are many tutorials if you Google especially at Scott Stevenson's blog. You can also check out the NSKeyValueCoding Protocol Reference.

Hope that helps.

Get local IP address

@mrcheif I found this answer today and it was very useful although it did return a wrong IP (not due to the code not working) but it gave the wrong internetwork IP when you have such things as Himachi running.

public static string localIPAddress()
{
    IPHostEntry host;
    string localIP = "";
    host = Dns.GetHostEntry(Dns.GetHostName());

    foreach (IPAddress ip in host.AddressList)
    {
        localIP = ip.ToString();

        string[] temp = localIP.Split('.');

        if (ip.AddressFamily == AddressFamily.InterNetwork && temp[0] == "192")
        {
            break;
        }
        else
        {
            localIP = null;
        }
    }

    return localIP;
}

How can I solve the error 'TS2532: Object is possibly 'undefined'?

Edit / Update:

If you are using Typescript 3.7 or newer you can now also do:

    const data = change?.after?.data();

    if(!data) {
      console.error('No data here!');
       return null
    }

    const maxLen = 100;
    const msgLen = data.messages.length;
    const charLen = JSON.stringify(data).length;

    const batch = db.batch();

    if (charLen >= 10000 || msgLen >= maxLen) {

      // Always delete at least 1 message
      const deleteCount = msgLen - maxLen <= 0 ? 1 : msgLen - maxLen
      data.messages.splice(0, deleteCount);

      const ref = db.collection("chats").doc(change.after.id);

      batch.set(ref, data, { merge: true });

      return batch.commit();
    } else {
      return null;
    }

Original Response

Typescript is saying that change or data is possibly undefined (depending on what onUpdate returns).

So you should wrap it in a null/undefined check:

if(change && change.after && change.after.data){
    const data = change.after.data();

    const maxLen = 100;
    const msgLen = data.messages.length;
    const charLen = JSON.stringify(data).length;

    const batch = db.batch();

    if (charLen >= 10000 || msgLen >= maxLen) {

      // Always delete at least 1 message
      const deleteCount = msgLen - maxLen <= 0 ? 1 : msgLen - maxLen
      data.messages.splice(0, deleteCount);

      const ref = db.collection("chats").doc(change.after.id);

      batch.set(ref, data, { merge: true });

      return batch.commit();
    } else {
      return null;
    }
}

If you are 100% sure that your object is always defined then you can put this:

const data = change.after!.data();

Why do package names often begin with "com"

It's the domain name spelt out in reverse.

For example, one of my domains is hedgee.com. So, I use com.hedgee as the base name of all my packages.

How to draw a filled triangle in android canvas?

Don't moveTo() after each lineTo()

In other words, remove every moveTo() except the first one.

Seriously, if I just copy-paste OP's code and remove the unnecessary moveTo() calls, it works.

Nothing else needs to be done.


EDIT: I know the OP already posted his "final working solution", but he didn't state why it works. The actual reason was quite surprising to me, so I felt the need to add an answer.

Error 1022 - Can't write; duplicate key in table

I had this problem when creating a new table. It turns out the Foreign Key name I gave was already in use. Renaming the key fixed it.

How do I check my gcc C++ compiler version for my Eclipse?

gcc -dumpversion

-dumpversion Print the compiler version (for example, 3.0) — and don't do anything else.

The same works for following compilers/aliases:

cc -dumpversion
g++ -dumpversion
clang -dumpversion
tcc -dumpversion

Be careful with automate parsing the GCC output:

  • Output of --version might be localized (e.g. to Russian, Chinese, etc.)
  • GCC might be built with option --with-gcc-major-version-only. And some distros (e.g. Fedora) are already using that
  • GCC might be built with option --with-pkgversion. And --version output will contain something like Android (5220042 based on r346389c) clang version 8.0.7 (it's real version string)

IOError: [Errno 32] Broken pipe: Python

To bring Alex L.'s helpful answer, akhan's helpful answer, and Blckknght's helpful answer together with some additional information:

  • Standard Unix signal SIGPIPE is sent to a process writing to a pipe when there's no process reading from the pipe (anymore).

    • This is not necessarily an error condition; some Unix utilities such as head by design stop reading prematurely from a pipe, once they've received enough data.
  • By default - i.e., if the writing process does not explicitly trap SIGPIPE - the writing process is simply terminated, and its exit code is set to 141, which is calculated as 128 (to signal termination by signal in general) + 13 (SIGPIPE's specific signal number).

  • By design, however, Python itself traps SIGPIPE and translates it into a Python IOError instance with errno value errno.EPIPE, so that a Python script can catch it, if it so chooses - see Alex L.'s answer for how to do that.

  • If a Python script does not catch it, Python outputs error message IOError: [Errno 32] Broken pipe and terminates the script with exit code 1 - this is the symptom the OP saw.

  • In many cases this is more disruptive than helpful, so reverting to the default behavior is desirable:

    • Using the signal module allows just that, as stated in akhan's answer; signal.signal() takes a signal to handle as the 1st argument and a handler as the 2nd; special handler value SIG_DFL represents the system's default behavior:

      from signal import signal, SIGPIPE, SIG_DFL
      signal(SIGPIPE, SIG_DFL) 
      

Sending a JSON HTTP POST request from Android

Posting parameters Using POST:-

URL url;
URLConnection urlConn;
DataOutputStream printout;
DataInputStream  input;
url = new URL (getCodeBase().toString() + "env.tcgi");
urlConn = url.openConnection();
urlConn.setDoInput (true);
urlConn.setDoOutput (true);
urlConn.setUseCaches (false);
urlConn.setRequestProperty("Content-Type","application/json");   
urlConn.setRequestProperty("Host", "android.schoolportal.gr");
urlConn.connect();  
//Create JSONObject here
JSONObject jsonParam = new JSONObject();
jsonParam.put("ID", "25");
jsonParam.put("description", "Real");
jsonParam.put("enable", "true");

The part which you missed is in the the following... i.e., as follows..

// Send POST output.
printout = new DataOutputStream(urlConn.getOutputStream ());
printout.writeBytes(URLEncoder.encode(jsonParam.toString(),"UTF-8"));
printout.flush ();
printout.close ();

The rest of the thing you can do it.

How to commit my current changes to a different branch in Git

The other answers suggesting checking out the other branch, then committing to it, only work if the checkout is possible given the local modifications. If not, you're in the most common use case for git stash:

git stash
git checkout other-branch
git stash pop

The first stash hides away your changes (basically making a temporary commit), and the subsequent stash pop re-applies them. This lets Git use its merge capabilities.

If, when you try to pop the stash, you run into merge conflicts... the next steps depend on what those conflicts are. If all the stashed changes indeed belong on that other branch, you're simply going to have to sort through them - it's a consequence of having made your changes on the wrong branch.

On the other hand, if you've really messed up, and your work tree has a mix of changes for the two branches, and the conflicts are just in the ones you want to commit back on the original branch, you can save some work. As usual, there are a lot of ways to do this. Here's one, starting from after you pop and see the conflicts:

# Unstage everything (warning: this leaves files with conflicts in your tree)
git reset

# Add the things you *do* want to commit here
git add -p     # or maybe git add -i
git commit

# The stash still exists; pop only throws it away if it applied cleanly
git checkout original-branch
git stash pop

# Add the changes meant for this branch
git add -p
git commit

# And throw away the rest
git reset --hard

Alternatively, if you realize ahead of the time that this is going to happen, simply commit the things that belong on the current branch. You can always come back and amend that commit:

git add -p
git commit
git stash
git checkout other-branch
git stash pop

And of course, remember that this all took a bit of work, and avoid it next time, perhaps by putting your current branch name in your prompt by adding $(__git_ps1) to your PS1 environment variable in your bashrc file. (See for example the Git in Bash documentation.)

Tree implementation in Java (root, parents and children)

In answer ,it creates circular dependency.This can be avoided by removing parent inside Child nodes. i.e,

public class MyTreeNode<T>{     


    private T data = null;
    private List<MyTreeNode> children = new ArrayList<>();


    public MyTreeNode(T data) {
        this.data = data;

    }

    public void addChild(MyTreeNode child) {
        this.children.add(child);
    }

    public void addChild(T data) {
        MyTreeNode<T> newChild = new MyTreeNode<>(data);
        children.add(newChild);
    }

    public void addChildren(List<MyTreeNode> children) {
        this.children.addAll(children);
    }

    public List<MyTreeNode> getChildren() {
        return children;
    }

    public T getData() {
        return data;
    }

    public void setData(T data) {
        this.data = data;
    }


}

Using the same example specified above,the output will be like this:

{ "data": "Root", "children": [ { "data": "Child1", "children": [ { "data": "Grandchild1", "children": [] }, { "data": "Grandchild2", "children": [] } ] }, { "data": "Child2", "children": [ { "data": "Grandchild3", "children": [] } ] }, { "data": "Child3", "children": [] }, { "data": "Child4", "children": [] }, { "data": "Child5", "children": [] }, { "data": "Child6", "children": [] } ] }

Getting data posted in between two dates

This worked great for me

$this->db->where('sell_date BETWEEN "'. date('Y-m-d', strtotime($start_date)). '" and "'. date('Y-m-d', strtotime($end_date)).'"');

Find the index of a dict within a list, by matching the dict's value

lst = [{'id':'1234','name':'Jason'}, {'id':'2345','name':'Tom'}, {'id':'3456','name':'Art'}]

tom_index = next((index for (index, d) in enumerate(lst) if d["name"] == "Tom"), None)
# 1

If you need to fetch repeatedly from name, you should index them by name (using a dictionary), this way get operations would be O(1) time. An idea:

def build_dict(seq, key):
    return dict((d[key], dict(d, index=index)) for (index, d) in enumerate(seq))

info_by_name = build_dict(lst, key="name")
tom_info = info_by_name.get("Tom")
# {'index': 1, 'id': '2345', 'name': 'Tom'}

AngularJS : ng-click not working

i tried using the same ng-click for two elements with same name showDetail2('abc')

it is working for me . can you check rest of the code which may be breaking you to move further.

here is the sample jsfiddle i tried:

is inaccessible due to its protection level

myClub.distance = Console.ReadLine();

should be

myClub.mydistance = Console.ReadLine(); 

use your public properties that you have defined for others as well instead of the protected field members.

How do I load external fonts into an HTML document?

Take a look at this A List Apart article. The pertinent CSS is:

@font-face {
  font-family: "Kimberley";
  src: url(http://www.princexml.com/fonts/larabie/kimberle.ttf) format("truetype");
}
h1 { font-family: "Kimberley", sans-serif }

The above will work in Chrome/Safari/FireFox. As Paul D. Waite pointed out in the comments you can get it to work with IE if you convert the font to the EOT format.

The good news is that this seems to degrade gracefully in older browsers, so as long as you're aware and comfortable with the fact that not all users will see the same font, it's safe to use.

Get current cursor position in a textbox

Here's one possible method.

function isMouseInBox(e) {
  var textbox = document.getElementById('textbox');

  // Box position & sizes
  var boxX = textbox.offsetLeft;
  var boxY = textbox.offsetTop;
  var boxWidth = textbox.offsetWidth;
  var boxHeight = textbox.offsetHeight;

  // Mouse position comes from the 'mousemove' event
  var mouseX = e.pageX;
  var mouseY = e.pageY;
  if(mouseX>=boxX && mouseX<=boxX+boxWidth) {
    if(mouseY>=boxY && mouseY<=boxY+boxHeight){
       // Mouse is in the box
       return true;
    }
  }
}

document.addEventListener('mousemove', function(e){
    isMouseInBox(e);
})

JPA: unidirectional many-to-one and cascading delete

If you are using hibernate as your JPA provider you can use the annotation @OnDelete. This annotation will add to the relation the trigger ON DELETE CASCADE, which delegates the deletion of the children to the database.

Example:

public class Parent {
   
        @Id
        private long id;

}


public class Child {
        
        @Id
        private long id;
  
        @ManyToOne
        @OnDelete(action = OnDeleteAction.CASCADE)
        private Parent parent;
}
     

With this solution a unidirectional relationship from the child to the parent is enough to automatically remove all children. This solution does not need any listeners etc. Also a JPQL query like DELETE FROM Parent WHERE id = 1 will remove the children.

Can I call a function of a shell script from another shell script?

The problem

The currenly accepted answer works only under important condition. Given...

/foo/bar/first.sh:

function func1 {  
   echo "Hello $1"
}

and

/foo/bar/second.sh:

#!/bin/bash

source ./first.sh
func1 World

this works only if the first.sh is executed from within the same directory where the first.sh is located. Ie. if the current working path of shell is /foo, the attempt to run command

cd /foo
./bar/second.sh

prints error:

/foo/bar/second.sh: line 4: func1: command not found

That's because the source ./first.sh is relative to current working path, not the path of the script. Hence one solution might be to utilize subshell and run

(cd /foo/bar; ./second.sh)

More generic solution

Given...

/foo/bar/first.sh:

function func1 {  
   echo "Hello $1"
}

and

/foo/bar/second.sh:

#!/bin/bash

source $(dirname "$0")/first.sh

func1 World

then

cd /foo
./bar/second.sh

prints

Hello World

How it works

  • $0 returns relative or absolute path to the executed script
  • dirname returns relative path to directory, where the $0 script exists
  • $( dirname "$0" ) the dirname "$0" command returns relative path to directory of executed script, which is then used as argument for source command
  • in "second.sh", /first.sh just appends the name of imported shell script
  • source loads content of specified file into current shell

iPhone UILabel text soft shadow

customLabel.layer.shadowOffset = CGSizeZero;
customLabel.layer.masksToBounds = NO;

Change Bootstrap tooltip color

If you want to use jQuery you can try this:

$('[data-toggle="tooltip"]').on('shown.bs.tooltip', function(){
    $('.tooltip.bottom .tooltip-arrow').css('border-bottom-color', 'red');
    $('.tooltip-inner').css('background-color', 'red');
});

How to iterate over a string in C?

Rather than use strlen as suggested above, you can just check for the NULL character:

#include <stdio.h>

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    const char *const pszSource = "This is an example.";
    const char *pszChar = pszSource;

    while (pszChar != NULL && *pszChar != '\0')
    {
        printf("%s", *pszChar);
        ++pszChar;
    }

    getchar();

    return 0;
}

Cannot deserialize the current JSON array (e.g. [1,2,3]) into type

I ran into this exact same error message. I tried Aditi's example, and then I realized what the real issue was. (Because I had another apiEndpoint making a similar call that worked fine.) In this case The object in my list had not had an interface extracted from it yet. So because I apparently missed a step, when it went to do the bind to the

List<OfthisModelType>

It failed to deserialize.

If you see this issue, check to see if that could be the issue.

Rename multiple files in a folder, add a prefix (Windows)

How to declare a global variable in php?

$GLOBALS[] is the right solution, but since we're talking about alternatives, a function can also do this job easily:

function my_var() {
    return 'Rome';
}

Terminal Multiplexer for Microsoft Windows - Installers for GNU Screen or tmux

Here is dirty way:

  1. Log into a linux server using "ssh -X user@host"
  2. open rxvt-unicode or other X terminal.
  3. open tmux or screen
  4. Log back into your local computer from the server
  5. start your favourite shell such as msys or cygwin.

What is an "index out of range" exception, and how do I fix it?

Why does this error occur?

Because you tried to access an element in a collection, using a numeric index that exceeds the collection's boundaries.

The first element in a collection is generally located at index 0. The last element is at index n-1, where n is the Size of the collection (the number of elements it contains). If you attempt to use a negative number as an index, or a number that is larger than Size-1, you're going to get an error.

How indexing arrays works

When you declare an array like this:

var array = new int[6]

The first and last elements in the array are

var firstElement = array[0];
var lastElement = array[5];

So when you write:

var element = array[5];

you are retrieving the sixth element in the array, not the fifth one.

Typically, you would loop over an array like this:

for (int index = 0; index < array.Length; index++)
{
    Console.WriteLine(array[index]);
}

This works, because the loop starts at zero, and ends at Length-1 because index is no longer less than Length.

This, however, will throw an exception:

for (int index = 0; index <= array.Length; index++)
{
    Console.WriteLine(array[index]);
}

Notice the <= there? index will now be out of range in the last loop iteration, because the loop thinks that Length is a valid index, but it is not.

How other collections work

Lists work the same way, except that you generally use Count instead of Length. They still start at zero, and end at Count - 1.

for (int index = 0; i < list.Count; index++)
{
    Console.WriteLine(list[index]);
} 

However, you can also iterate through a list using foreach, avoiding the whole problem of indexing entirely:

foreach (var element in list)
{
    Console.WriteLine(element.ToString());
}

You cannot index an element that hasn't been added to a collection yet.

var list = new List<string>();
list.Add("Zero");
list.Add("One");
list.Add("Two");
Console.WriteLine(list[3]);  // Throws exception.

How can I specify the default JVM arguments for programs I run from eclipse?

Go to Window → Preferences → Java → Installed JREs. Select the JRE you're using, click Edit, and there will be a line for Default VM Arguments which will apply to every execution. For instance, I use this on OS X to hide the icon from the dock, increase max memory and turn on assertions:

How to push both key and value into an Array in Jquery

You might mean this:

var unEnumeratedArray = [];
var wtfObject = {
                 key    : 'val', 
                 0      : (undefined = 'Look, I\'m defined'),
                 'new'  : 'keyword', 
                 '{!}'  : 'use bracket syntax',
                 '        ': '8 spaces'
                };

for(var key in wtfObject){
    unEnumeratedArray[key] = wtfObject[key];
}
console.log('HAS KEYS PER VALUE NOW:', unEnumeratedArray, unEnumeratedArray[0], 
             unEnumeratedArray.key, unEnumeratedArray['new'], 
             unEnumeratedArray['{!}'], unEnumeratedArray['        ']);

You can set an enumerable for an Object like: ({})[0] = 'txt'; and you can set a key for an Array like: ([])['myKey'] = 'myVal';

Hope this helps :)

foreach for JSON array , syntax

You can do something like

for(var k in result) {
   console.log(k, result[k]);
}

which loops over all the keys in the returned json and prints the values. However, if you have a nested structure, you will need to use

typeof result[k] === "object"

to determine if you have to loop over the nested objects. Most APIs I have used, the developers know the structure of what is being returned, so this is unnecessary. However, I suppose it's possible that this expectation is not good for all cases.

How do I import a CSV file in R?

You would use the read.csv function; for example:

dat = read.csv("spam.csv", header = TRUE)

You can also reference this tutorial for more details.

Note: make sure the .csv file to read is in your working directory (using getwd()) or specify the right path to file. If you want, you can set the current directory using setwd.

Sass Nesting for :hover does not work

For concatenating selectors together when nesting, you need to use the parent selector (&):

.class {
    margin:20px;
    &:hover {
        color:yellow;
    }
}

Check if cookies are enabled

Answer on an old question, this new post is posted on April the 4th 2013

To complete the answer of @misza, here a advanced method to check if cookies are enabled without page reloading. The problem with @misza is that it not always work when the php ini setting session.use_cookies is not true. Also the solution does not check if a session is already started.

I made this function and test it many times with in different situations and does the job very well.

    function suGetClientCookiesEnabled() // Test if browser has cookies enabled
    {
      // Avoid overhead, if already tested, return it
      if( defined( 'SU_CLIENT_COOKIES_ENABLED' ))
       { return SU_CLIENT_COOKIES_ENABLED; }

      $bIni = ini_get( 'session.use_cookies' ); 
      ini_set( 'session.use_cookies', 1 ); 

      $a = session_id();
      $bWasStarted = ( is_string( $a ) && strlen( $a ));
      if( !$bWasStarted )
      {
        @session_start();
        $a = session_id();
      }

   // Make a copy of current session data
  $aSesDat = (isset( $_SESSION ))?$_SESSION:array();
   // Now we destroy the session and we lost the data but not the session id 
   // when cookies are enabled. We restore the data later. 
  @session_destroy(); 
   // Restart it
  @session_start();

   // Restore copy
  $_SESSION = $aSesDat;

   // If no cookies are enabled, the session differs from first session start
  $b = session_id();
  if( !$bWasStarted )
   { // If not was started, write data to the session container to avoid data loss
     @session_write_close(); 
   }

   // When no cookies are enabled, $a and $b are not the same
  $b = ($a === $b);
  define( 'SU_CLIENT_COOKIES_ENABLED', $b );

  if( !$bIni )
   { @ini_set( 'session.use_cookies', 0 ); }

  //echo $b?'1':'0';
  return $b;
    }

Usage:

if( suGetClientCookiesEnabled())
 { echo 'Cookies are enabled!'; }
else { echo 'Cookies are NOT enabled!'; }

Important note: The function temporarily modify the ini setting of PHP when it not has the correct setting and restore it when it was not enabled. This is only to test if cookies are enabled. It can get go wrong when you start a session and the php ini setting session.use_cookies has an incorrect value. To be sure that the session is working correctly, check and/or set it before start a session, for example:

   if( suGetClientCookiesEnabled())
     { 
       echo 'Cookies are enabled!'; 
       ini_set( 'session.use_cookies', 1 ); 
       echo 'Starting session';
       @start_session(); 

     }
    else { echo 'Cookies are NOT enabled!'; }

Best programming based games

Although not strictly programming-based, I enjoyed a lot Robot Odyssey, a game where you wired logic gates to sensors and motors in a robot, to make it move and react to environment, to get out of a city, escaping obstacles. I played in on Apple //e, it was one of the best games on this computer (with Lode Runner! :-)).

Retrieve a single file from a repository

If there is web interface deployed (like gitweb, cgit, Gitorious, ginatra), you can use it to download single file ('raw' or 'plain' view).

If other side enabled it, you can use git archive's '--remote=<URL>' option (and possibly limit it to a directory given file resides in), for example:

$ git archive [email protected]:foo/bar.git --prefix=path/to/ HEAD:path/to/ |  tar xvf -

Django {% with %} tags within {% if %} {% else %} tags?

if you want to stay DRY, use an include.

{% if foo %}
  {% with a as b %}
    {% include "snipet.html" %}
  {% endwith %} 
{% else %}
  {% with bar as b %}
    {% include "snipet.html" %}
  {% endwith %} 
{% endif %}

or, even better would be to write a method on the model that encapsulates the core logic:

def Patient(models.Model):
    ....
    def get_legally_responsible_party(self):
       if self.age > 18:
          return self
       else:
          return self.parent

Then in the template:

{% with patient.get_legally_responsible_party as p %}
  Do html stuff
{% endwith %} 

Then in the future, if the logic for who is legally responsible changes you have a single place to change the logic -- far more DRY than having to change if statements in a dozen templates.

Search for string and get count in vi editor

use

:%s/pattern/\0/g

when pattern string is too long and you don't like to type it all again.

What is the precise meaning of "ours" and "theirs" in git?

  • Ours: This is the branch you are currently on.
  • Theirs: This is the other branch that is used in your action.

So if you are on branch release/2.5 and you merge branch feature/new-buttons into it, then the content as found in release/2.5 is what ours refers to and the content as found on feature/new-buttons is what theirs refers to. During a merge action this is pretty straight forward.

The only problem most people fall for is the rebase case. If you do a re-base instead of a normal merge, the roles are swapped. How's that? Well, that's caused solely by the way rebasing works. Think of rebase to work like that:

  1. All commits you have done since your last pull are moved to a branch of their own, let's name it BranchX.
  2. You checkout the head of your current branch, discarding any local changes you had but that way retrieving all changes others have pushed for that branch.
  3. Now every commit on BranchX is cherry-picked in order old to new to your current branch.
  4. BranchX is deleted again and thus won't ever show up in any history.

Of course, that's not really what is going on but it's a nice mind model for me. And if you look at 2 and 3, you will understand why the roles are swapped now. As of 2, your current branch is now the branch from the server without any of your changes, so this is ours (the branch you are on). The changes you made are now on a different branch that is not your current one (BranchX) and thus these changes (despite being the changes you made) are theirs (the other branch used in your action).

That means if you merge and you want your changes to always win, you'd tell git to always choose "ours" but if you rebase and you want all your changes to always win, you tell git to always choose "theirs".

Create a BufferedImage from file and make it TYPE_INT_ARGB

try {
    File img = new File("somefile.png");
    BufferedImage image = ImageIO.read(img ); 
    System.out.println(image);
} catch (IOException e) { 
    e.printStackTrace(); 
}

Example output for my image file:

BufferedImage@5d391d: type = 5 ColorModel: #pixelBits = 24 
numComponents = 3 color 
space = java.awt.color.ICC_ColorSpace@50a649 
transparency = 1 
has alpha = false 
isAlphaPre = false 
ByteInterleavedRaster: 
width = 800 
height = 600 
#numDataElements 3 
dataOff[0] = 2

You can run System.out.println(object); on just about any object and get some information about it.

Angular 2 / 4 / 5 not working in IE11

The latest version of angular is only setup for evergreen browsers by default...

The current setup is for so-called "evergreen" browsers; the last versions of browsers that automatically update themselves. This includes Safari >= 10, Chrome >= 55 (including Opera), Edge >= 13 on the desktop, and iOS 10 and Chrome on mobile.
This also includes firefox, although not mentioned.

See here for more information on browser support along with a list of suggested polyfills for specific browsers. https://angular.io/guide/browser-support#polyfill-libs


This means that you manually have to enable the correct polyfills to get Angular working in IE11 and below.


To achieve this, go into polyfills.ts (in the src folder by default) and just uncomment the following imports:

/***************************************************************************************************
 * BROWSER POLYFILLS
 */

/** IE9, IE10 and IE11 requires all of the following polyfills. **/
 import 'core-js/es6/symbol';
 import 'core-js/es6/object';
 import 'core-js/es6/function';
 import 'core-js/es6/parse-int';
 import 'core-js/es6/parse-float';
 import 'core-js/es6/number';
 import 'core-js/es6/math';
 import 'core-js/es6/string';
 import 'core-js/es6/date';
 import 'core-js/es6/array';
 import 'core-js/es6/regexp';
 import 'core-js/es6/map';
 import 'core-js/es6/set';

Note that the comment is literally in the file, so this is easy to find.

If you are still having issues, you can downgrade the target property to es5 in tsconfig.json as @MikeDub suggested. What this does is change the compilation output of any es6 definitions to es5 definitions. For example, fat arrow functions (()=>{}) will be compiled to anonymous functions (function(){}). You can find a list of es6 supported browsers here.


Notes

• I was asked in the comments by @jackOfAll whether IE11 polyfills are loaded even if the user is in an evergreen browser which doesn't need them. The answer is, yes they are! The inclusion of the IE11 polyfills will take your polyfill file from ~162KB to ~258KB as of Aug 8 '17. I have invested in trying to solve this however it does not seem possible at this time.

• If you are getting errors in IE10 and below, go into you package.json and downgrade webpack-dev-server to 2.7.1 specifically. Versions higher than this no longer support "older" IE versions.

How to turn IDENTITY_INSERT on and off using SQL Server 2008?

I know this is an older thread but I just bumped into this. If the user is trying to run inserts on the Identity column after some other session Set IDENTITY_INSERT ON, then he is bound to get the above error.

Setting the Identity Insert value and the subsequent Insert DML commands are to be run by the same session.

Here @Beginner was setting Identity Insert ON separately and then running the inserts from his application. That is why he got the below Error:

Cannot insert explicit value for identity column in table 'Baskets' when 
IDENTITY_INSERT is set to OFF.

Change onclick action with a Javascript function

Your code is calling the function and assigning the return value to onClick, also it should be 'onclick'. This is how it should look.

document.getElementById("a").onclick = Bar;

Looking at your other code you probably want to do something like this:

document.getElementById(id+"Button").onclick = function() { HideError(id); }

Change line width of lines in matplotlib pyplot legend

@ImportanceOfBeingErnest 's answer is good if you only want to change the linewidth inside the legend box. But I think it is a bit more complex since you have to copy the handles before changing legend linewidth. Besides, it can not change the legend label fontsize. The following two methods can not only change the linewidth but also the legend label text font size in a more concise way.

Method 1

import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

# make some data
x = np.linspace(0, 2*np.pi)

y1 = np.sin(x)
y2 = np.cos(x)

# plot sin(x) and cos(x)
fig = plt.figure()
ax  = fig.add_subplot(111)
ax.plot(x, y1, c='b', label='y1')
ax.plot(x, y2, c='r', label='y2')

leg = plt.legend()
# get the individual lines inside legend and set line width
for line in leg.get_lines():
    line.set_linewidth(4)
# get label texts inside legend and set font size
for text in leg.get_texts():
    text.set_fontsize('x-large')

plt.savefig('leg_example')
plt.show()

Method 2

import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

# make some data
x = np.linspace(0, 2*np.pi)

y1 = np.sin(x)
y2 = np.cos(x)

# plot sin(x) and cos(x)
fig = plt.figure()
ax  = fig.add_subplot(111)
ax.plot(x, y1, c='b', label='y1')
ax.plot(x, y2, c='r', label='y2')

leg = plt.legend()
# get the lines and texts inside legend box
leg_lines = leg.get_lines()
leg_texts = leg.get_texts()
# bulk-set the properties of all lines and texts
plt.setp(leg_lines, linewidth=4)
plt.setp(leg_texts, fontsize='x-large')
plt.savefig('leg_example')
plt.show()

The above two methods produce the same output image:

How do I solve the "server DNS address could not be found" error on Windows 10?

There might be a problem with your DNS servers of the ISP. A computer by default uses the ISP's DNS servers. You can manually configure your DNS servers. It is free and usually better than your ISP.

  1. Go to Control Panel ? Network and Internet ? Network and Sharing Centre
  2. Click on Change Adapter settings.
  3. Right click on your connection icon (Wireless Network Connection or Local Area Connection) and select properties.
  4. Select Internet protocol version 4.
  5. Click on "Use the following DNS server address" and type either of the two DNS given below.

Google Public DNS

Preferred DNS server : 8.8.8.8
Alternate DNS server : 8.8.4.4

How to comment/uncomment in HTML code

Depending on your editor, this should be a fairly easy macro to write.

Another macro to reverse these steps, and you are done.

Edit: this simplistic approach does not handle nested comment tags, but should make the commenting/uncommenting easier in the general case.

When writing datetime value to sql db

    //Convert the time into UTC and build Timestamp object.
    Timestamp ts = Timestamp.valueOf(LocalDateTime.now(ZoneId.of("UTC")));
    //use setTimestamp on preparedstatement
    preparedStatement.setTimestamp(1, ts);

When reading the value back from DB into java,

  1. Read it as it is in java.sql.Timestamp type.
  2. Decorate the DateTime value as time in UTC timezone using atZone method in LocalDateTime class.
  3. Then, change it to your desired timezone. Here I am changing it to Toronto timezone.

    ResultSet resultSet = preparedStatement.executeQuery();
    resultSet.next();
    Timestamp timestamp = resultSet.getTimestamp(1);
    ZonedDateTime timeInUTC = timestamp.toLocalDateTime().atZone(ZoneId.of("UTC"));
    LocalDateTime timeInToronto = LocalDateTime.ofInstant(timeInUTC.toInstant(), ZoneId.of("America/Toronto"));
    

Changing the selected option of an HTML Select element

Excellent answers - here's the D3 version for anyone looking:

<select id="sel">
    <option>Cat</option>
    <option>Dog</option>
    <option>Fish</option>
</select>
<script>
    d3.select('#sel').property('value', 'Fish');
</script>

Sorting HashMap by values

In Java 8:

Map<Integer, String> sortedMap = 
     unsortedMap.entrySet().stream()
    .sorted(Entry.comparingByValue())
    .collect(Collectors.toMap(Entry::getKey, Entry::getValue,
                              (e1, e2) -> e1, LinkedHashMap::new));

Batch file to run a command in cmd within a directory

Mine DID execute commands in order. Here's my version of what I was using it for:

START cmd.exe /k "U: & cd U:\Design_stuff\new_lcso_website_2017 & python -m http.server"

I needed to

  1. Change to my U drive
  2. CD to a specific folder containing a website I'm redesigning
  3. Execute python with the http server module (to display the contents in my browser).

If those commands are out of order, it would not display the correct files. I initially forgot to change to U: and, running the batch file on my Desktop, it created a web page in my browser at http://localhost:8000 showing me the contents of my Desktop instead of the folder I wanted.

How to get the filename without the extension in Java?

The easiest way is to use a regular expression.

fileNameWithOutExt = "test.xml".replaceFirst("[.][^.]+$", "");

The above expression will remove the last dot followed by one or more characters. Here's a basic unit test.

public void testRegex() {
    assertEquals("test", "test.xml".replaceFirst("[.][^.]+$", ""));
    assertEquals("test.2", "test.2.xml".replaceFirst("[.][^.]+$", ""));
}

Wait for async task to finish

How about calling a function from within your callback instead of returning a value in sync_call()?

function sync_call(input) {
    var value;

    // Assume the async call always succeed
    async_call(input, function(result) {
        value = result;
        use_value(value);
    } );
}

How to use the 'replace' feature for custom AngularJS directives?

replace:true is Deprecated

From the Docs:

replace ([DEPRECATED!], will be removed in next major release - i.e. v2.0)

specify what the template should replace. Defaults to false.

  • true - the template will replace the directive's element.
  • false - the template will replace the contents of the directive's element.

-- AngularJS Comprehensive Directive API

From GitHub:

Caitp-- It's deprecated because there are known, very silly problems with replace: true, a number of which can't really be fixed in a reasonable fashion. If you're careful and avoid these problems, then more power to you, but for the benefit of new users, it's easier to just tell them "this will give you a headache, don't do it".

-- AngularJS Issue #7636


Update

Note: replace: true is deprecated and not recommended to use, mainly due to the issues listed here. It has been completely removed in the new Angular.

Issues with replace: true

How to declare std::unique_ptr and what is the use of it?

The constructor of unique_ptr<T> accepts a raw pointer to an object of type T (so, it accepts a T*).

In the first example:

unique_ptr<int> uptr (new int(3));

The pointer is the result of a new expression, while in the second example:

unique_ptr<double> uptr2 (pd);

The pointer is stored in the pd variable.

Conceptually, nothing changes (you are constructing a unique_ptr from a raw pointer), but the second approach is potentially more dangerous, since it would allow you, for instance, to do:

unique_ptr<double> uptr2 (pd);
// ...
unique_ptr<double> uptr3 (pd);

Thus having two unique pointers that effectively encapsulate the same object (thus violating the semantics of a unique pointer).

This is why the first form for creating a unique pointer is better, when possible. Notice, that in C++14 we will be able to do:

unique_ptr<int> p = make_unique<int>(42);

Which is both clearer and safer. Now concerning this doubt of yours:

What is also not clear to me, is how pointers, declared in this way will be different from the pointers declared in a "normal" way.

Smart pointers are supposed to model object ownership, and automatically take care of destroying the pointed object when the last (smart, owning) pointer to that object falls out of scope.

This way you do not have to remember doing delete on objects allocated dynamically - the destructor of the smart pointer will do that for you - nor to worry about whether you won't dereference a (dangling) pointer to an object that has been destroyed already:

{
    unique_ptr<int> p = make_unique<int>(42);
    // Going out of scope...
}
// I did not leak my integer here! The destructor of unique_ptr called delete

Now unique_ptr is a smart pointer that models unique ownership, meaning that at any time in your program there shall be only one (owning) pointer to the pointed object - that's why unique_ptr is non-copyable.

As long as you use smart pointers in a way that does not break the implicit contract they require you to comply with, you will have the guarantee that no memory will be leaked, and the proper ownership policy for your object will be enforced. Raw pointers do not give you this guarantee.

No matching bean of type ... found for dependency

In my case it was the wrong dependecy for CrudRepository. My IDE added also follwing:

    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.springframework.data</groupId>
        <artifactId>spring-data-commons</artifactId>
        <version>1.11.2.RELEASE</version>

But I just needed:

        <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-data-jpa</artifactId>
        <version>RELEASE</version>
    </dependency>

I removed the first one and everything was fine.

onActivityResult is not being called in Fragment

Solution 1:

Call startActivityForResult(intent, REQUEST_CODE); instead of getActivity().startActivityForResult(intent, REQUEST_CODE);.

Solution 2:

When startActivityForResult(intent, REQUEST_CODE); is called the activity's onActivityResult(requestCode,resultcode,intent) is invoked, and then you can call fragments onActivityResult() from here, passing the requestCode, resultCode and intent.

Generating random whole numbers in JavaScript in a specific range?

Visual Studio: LINK : fatal error LNK1181: cannot open input file

What is "git remote add ..." and "git push origin master"?

Have a look at the syntax for adding a remote repo.

git remote add origin <url_of_remote repository>

Example:

git remote add origin [email protected]:peter/first_app.git

Let us dissect the command :

git remote this is used to manage your Central servers for hosting your git repositories.

May be you are using Github for your central repository stuff. I will give you a example and explain the git remote add origin command

Suppose I am working with GitHub and BitBucket for the central servers for the git repositories and have created repositories on both the websites for my first-app project.

Now if I want to push my changes to both these git servers then I will need to tell git how to reach these central repositories. So I will have to add these,

For GitHub

git remote add gh_origin https://github.com/user/first-app-git.git

And For BitBucket

git remote add bb_origin https://[email protected]/user/first-app-git.git

I have used two variables ( as far it is easy for me to call them variables ) gh_origin ( gh FOR GITHUB ) and bb_origin ( bb for BITBUCKET ) just to explain you we can call origin anything we want.

Now after making some changes I will have to send(push) all these changes to central repositories so that other users can see these changes. So I call

Pushing to GitHub

git push gh_origin master

Pushing to BitBucket

git push bb_origin master

gh_origin is holding value of https://github.com/user/first-app-git.git and bb_origin is holding value of https://[email protected]/user/first-app-git.git

This two variables are making my life easier

as whenever I need to send my code changes I need to use this words instead of remembering or typing the URL for the same.

Most of the times you wont see anything except than origin as most of the times you will deal with only one central repository like Github or BitBucket for example.

How to run a command in the background on Windows?

Use the start command with the /b flag to run a command/application without opening a new window. For example, this runs dotnet run in the background:

start /b dotnet run

You can pass parameters to the command/application too. For example, I'm starting 3 instances of this C# project, with parameter values of x, y, and z:

enter image description here

To stop the program(s) running in the background: CTRL + BREAK

In my experience, this stops all of the background commands/programs you have started in that cmd instance.

According to the Microsoft docs:

CTRL+C handling is ignored unless the application enables CTRL+C processing. Use CTRL+BREAK to interrupt the application.

How can I write output from a unit test?

I get no output when my Test/Test Settings/Default Processor Architecture setting and the assemblies that my test project references are not the same. Otherwise Trace.Writeline() works fine.

How do I reference tables in Excel using VBA?

In addition to the above, you can do this (where "YourListObjectName" is the name of your table):

Dim LO As ListObject
Set LO = ActiveSheet.ListObjects("YourListObjectName")

But I think that only works if you want to reference a list object that's on the active sheet.

I found your question because I wanted to refer to a list object (a table) on one worksheet that a pivot table on a different worksheet refers to. Since list objects are part of the Worksheets collection, you have to know the name of the worksheet that list object is on in order to refer to it. So to get the name of the worksheet that the list object is on, I got the name of the pivot table's source list object (again, a table) and looped through the worksheets and their list objects until I found the worksheet that contained the list object I was looking for.

Public Sub GetListObjectWorksheet()
' Get the name of the worksheet that contains the data
' that is the pivot table's source data.

    Dim WB As Workbook
    Set WB = ActiveWorkbook

    ' Create a PivotTable object and set it to be
    ' the pivot table in the active cell:
    Dim PT As PivotTable
    Set PT = ActiveCell.PivotTable

    Dim LO As ListObject
    Dim LOWS As Worksheet

    ' Loop through the worksheets and each worksheet's list objects
    ' to find the name of the worksheet that contains the list object
    ' that the pivot table uses as its source data:
    Dim WS As Worksheet
    For Each WS In WB.Worksheets
        ' Loop through the ListObjects in each workshet:
        For Each LO In WS.ListObjects
            ' If the ListObject's name is the name of the pivot table's soure data,
            ' set the LOWS to be the worksheet that contains the list object:
            If LO.Name = PT.SourceData Then
                Set LOWS = WB.Worksheets(LO.Parent.Name)
            End If
        Next LO
    Next WS

    Debug.Print LOWS.Name

End Sub

Maybe someone knows a more direct way.

Add floating point value to android resources/values

Add a float to dimens.xml:

<item format="float" name="my_dimen" type="dimen">1.2</item>

To reference from XML:

<EditText 
    android:lineSpacingMultiplier="@dimen/my_dimen"
    ...

To read this value programmatically you can use ResourcesCompat.getFloat from androidx.core

Gradle dependency:

implementation("androidx.core:core:${version}")

Usage:

import androidx.core.content.res.ResourcesCompat;

...

float value = ResourcesCompat.getFloat(context.getResources(), R.dimen.my_dimen);

VBA: activating/selecting a worksheet/row/cell

This is just a sample code, but it may help you get on your way:

Public Sub testIt()
    Workbooks("Workbook2").Activate
    ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Sheet2").Activate
    ActiveSheet.Range("B3").Select
    ActiveCell.EntireRow.Insert
End Sub

I am assuming that you can open the book (called Workbook2 in the example).


I think (but I'm not sure) you can squash all this in a single line of code:

    Workbooks("Workbook2").Sheets("Sheet2").Range("B3").EntireRow.Insert

This way you won't need to activate the workbook (or sheet or cell)... Obviously, the book has to be open.

How to get public directory?

You can use base_path() to get the base of your application - and then just add your public folder to that:

$path = base_path().'/public';
return File::put($path , $data)

Note: Be very careful about allowing people to upload files into your root of public_html. If they upload their own index.php file, they will take over your site.

Increase max_execution_time in PHP?

Theres a setting max_input_time (on Apache) for many webservers that defines how long they will wait for post data, regardless of the size. If this time runs out the connection is closed without even touching the php.

So your problem is not necessarily solvable with php only but you will need to change the server settings too.

How to read a PEM RSA private key from .NET

I solved, thanks. In case anyone's interested, bouncycastle did the trick, just took me some time due to lack of knowledge from on my side and documentation. This is the code:

var bytesToDecrypt = Convert.FromBase64String("la0Cz.....D43g=="); // string to decrypt, base64 encoded

AsymmetricCipherKeyPair keyPair; 

using (var reader = File.OpenText(@"c:\myprivatekey.pem")) // file containing RSA PKCS1 private key
    keyPair = (AsymmetricCipherKeyPair) new PemReader(reader).ReadObject(); 

var decryptEngine = new Pkcs1Encoding(new RsaEngine());
decryptEngine.Init(false, keyPair.Private); 

var decrypted = Encoding.UTF8.GetString(decryptEngine.ProcessBlock(bytesToDecrypt, 0, bytesToDecrypt.Length));

I don't know if it's the fastest but works pretty good so far

Multi-line bash commands in makefile

Of course, the proper way to write a Makefile is to actually document which targets depend on which sources. In the trivial case, the proposed solution will make foo depend on itself, but of course, make is smart enough to drop a circular dependency. But if you add a temporary file to your directory, it will "magically" become part of the dependency chain. Better to create an explicit list of dependencies once and for all, perhaps via a script.

GNU make knows how to run gcc to produce an executable out of a set of .c and .h files, so maybe all you really need amounts to

foo: $(wildcard *.h) $(wildcard *.c)

How to get IP address of running docker container

You can start your container with the flag -P. This "assigns" a random port to the exposed port of your image.

With docker port <container id> you can see the randomly choosen port. Access is then possible via localhost:port.

Mockito: InvalidUseOfMatchersException

For my case, the exception was raised because I tried to mock a package-access method. When I changed the method access level from package to protected the exception went away. E.g. inside below Java class,

public class Foo {
    String getName(String id) {
        return mMap.get(id);
    }
}

the method String getName(String id) has to be AT LEAST protected level so that the mocking mechanism (sub-classing) can work.

Python Pandas: How to read only first n rows of CSV files in?

If you only want to read the first 999,999 (non-header) rows:

read_csv(..., nrows=999999)

If you only want to read rows 1,000,000 ... 1,999,999

read_csv(..., skiprows=1000000, nrows=999999)

nrows : int, default None Number of rows of file to read. Useful for reading pieces of large files*

skiprows : list-like or integer Row numbers to skip (0-indexed) or number of rows to skip (int) at the start of the file

and for large files, you'll probably also want to use chunksize:

chunksize : int, default None Return TextFileReader object for iteration

What is the convention for word separator in Java package names?

The official naming conventions aren't that strict, they don't even 'forbid' camel case notation except for prefix (com in your example).

But I personally would avoid upper case letters and hyphenations, even numbers. I'd choose com.stackoverflow.mypackage like Bragboy suggested too.

(hyphenations '-' are not legal in package names)

EDIT

Interesting - the language specification has something to say about naming conventions too.

In Chapter 7.7 Unique Package Names we see examples with package names that consist of upper case letters (so CamelCase notation would be OK) and they suggest to replace hyphonation by an underscore ("mary-lou" -> "mary_lou") and prefix java keywords with an underscore ("com.example.enum" -> "com.example._enum")

Some more examples for upper case letters in package names can be found in chapter 6.8.1 Package Names.

How to unmerge a Git merge?

You can reset your branch to the state it was in just before the merge if you find the commit it was on then.

One way is to use git reflog, it will list all the HEADs you've had. I find that git reflog --relative-date is very useful as it shows how long ago each change happened.

Once you find that commit just do a git reset --hard <commit id> and your branch will be as it was before.

If you have SourceTree, you can look up the <commit id> there if git reflog is too overwhelming.

Pandas df.to_csv("file.csv" encode="utf-8") still gives trash characters for minus sign

Your "bad" output is UTF-8 displayed as CP1252.

On Windows, many editors assume the default ANSI encoding (CP1252 on US Windows) instead of UTF-8 if there is no byte order mark (BOM) character at the start of the file. While a BOM is meaningless to the UTF-8 encoding, its UTF-8-encoded presence serves as a signature for some programs. For example, Microsoft Office's Excel requires it even on non-Windows OSes. Try:

df.to_csv('file.csv',encoding='utf-8-sig')

That encoder will add the BOM.

What is callback in Android?

I am using in the following case: In UI I got an action from a button, for eg. the user want to download an 500mb file. Thank I will initialize the background engine (AsyncTask class) and pass parameters to him. On the UI I will show a blocking progress dialog and disable the user to make any other clicks. The question is: when to remove the blocking from UI? the answer is: when the engine finished with success or fail, and that can be with callbacks or notifications.

What is the difference between notification and callbacks it is another question, but 1:1 is faster the callback.

How to undo a git merge with conflicts

Actually, it is worth noticing that git merge --abort is only equivalent to git reset --merge given that MERGE_HEAD is present. This can be read in the git help for merge command.

git merge --abort # is equivalent to git reset --merge when MERGE_HEAD is present.

After a failed merge, when there is no MERGE_HEAD, the failed merge can be undone with git reset --merge but not necessarily with git merge --abort, so they are not only old and new syntax for the same thing.

Personally I find git reset --merge much more useful in everyday work.

Best way to update an element in a generic List

AllDogs.First(d => d.Id == "2").Name = "some value";

However, a safer version of that might be this:

var dog = AllDogs.FirstOrDefault(d => d.Id == "2");
if (dog != null) { dog.Name = "some value"; }

What do .c and .h file extensions mean to C?

.c : c file (where the real action is, in general)

.h : header file (to be included with a preprocessor #include directive). Contains stuff that is normally deemed to be shared with other parts of your code, like function prototypes, #define'd stuff, extern declaration for global variables (oh, the horror) and the like.

Technically, you could put everything in a single file. A whole C program. million of lines. But we humans tend to organize things. So you create different C files, each one containing particular functions. That's all nice and clean. Then suddenly you realize that a declaration you have into a given C file should exist also in another C file. So you would duplicate them. The best is therefore to extract the declaration and put it into a common file, which is the .h

For example, in the cs50.h you find what are called "forward declarations" of your functions. A forward declaration is a quick way to tell the compiler how a function should be called (e.g. what input params) and what it returns, so it can perform proper checking (for example if you call a function with the wrong number of parameters, it will complain).

Another example. Suppose you write a .c file containing a function performing regular expression matching. You want your function to accept the regular expression, the string to match, and a parameter that tells if the comparison has to be case insensitive.

in the .c you will therefore put

bool matches(string regexp, string s, int flags) { the code }

Now, assume you want to pass the following flags:

0: if the search is case sensitive

1: if the search is case insensitive

And you want to keep yourself open to new flags, so you did not put a boolean. playing with numbers is hard, so you define useful names for these flags

#define MATCH_CASE_SENSITIVE 0
#define MATCH_CASE_INSENSITIVE 1

This info goes into the .h, because if any program wants to use these labels, it has no way of knowing them unless you include the info. Of course you can put them in the .c, but then you would have to include the .c code (whole!) which is a waste of time and a source of trouble.

Convert UTC Epoch to local date

Are you just asking to convert a UTC string to a "local" string? You could do:

var utc_string = '2011-09-05 20:05:15';
var local_string = (function(dtstr) {
    var t0 = new Date(dtstr);
    var t1 = Date.parse(t0.toUTCString().replace('GMT', ''));
    var t2 = (2 * t0) - t1;
    return new Date(t2).toString();
})(utc_string);

It is highly recommended that you install xampp 1.7.0 . Download Link

Note: This is not a solution to the above problem, but a FIX which would allow you to continue with your development.

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

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

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

sh -c 'command'

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

sh -c 'exec command'

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

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

command

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

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

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

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

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

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

How do I pass variables and data from PHP to JavaScript?

Use:

<?php
    $your_php_variable= 22;
    echo "<script type='text/javascript'>var your_javascript_variable = $your_php_variable;</script>";
?>

and that will work. It's just assigning a JavaScript variable and then passing the value of an existing PHP variable. Since PHP writes the JavaScript lines here, it has the value of of the PHP variable and can pass it directly.

Select query with date condition

hey guys i think what you are looking for is this one using select command. With this you can specify a RANGE GREATER THAN(>) OR LESSER THAN(<) IN MySQL WITH THIS:::::

select* from <**TABLE NAME**> where year(**COLUMN NAME**) > **DATE** OR YEAR(COLUMN NAME )< **DATE**;

FOR EXAMPLE:

select name, BIRTH from pet1 where year(birth)> 1996 OR YEAR(BIRTH)< 1989;
+----------+------------+
| name     | BIRTH      |
+----------+------------+
| bowser   | 1979-09-11 |
| chirpy   | 1998-09-11 |
| whistler | 1999-09-09 |
+----------+------------+

FOR SIMPLE RANGE LIKE USE ONLY GREATER THAN / LESSER THAN

mysql> select COLUMN NAME from <TABLE NAME> where year(COLUMN NAME)> 1996;

FOR EXAMPLE mysql>

select name from pet1 where year(birth)> 1996 OR YEAR(BIRTH)< 1989;
+----------+
| name     |
+----------+
| bowser   |
| chirpy   |
| whistler |
+----------+

Which concurrent Queue implementation should I use in Java?

ConcurrentLinkedQueue means no locks are taken (i.e. no synchronized(this) or Lock.lock calls). It will use a CAS - Compare and Swap operation during modifications to see if the head/tail node is still the same as when it started. If so, the operation succeeds. If the head/tail node is different, it will spin around and try again.

LinkedBlockingQueue will take a lock before any modification. So your offer calls would block until they get the lock. You can use the offer overload that takes a TimeUnit to say you are only willing to wait X amount of time before abandoning the add (usually good for message type queues where the message is stale after X number of milliseconds).

Fairness means that the Lock implementation will keep the threads ordered. Meaning if Thread A enters and then Thread B enters, Thread A will get the lock first. With no fairness, it is undefined really what happens. It will most likely be the next thread that gets scheduled.

As for which one to use, it depends. I tend to use ConcurrentLinkedQueue because the time it takes my producers to get work to put onto the queue is diverse. I don't have a lot of producers producing at the exact same moment. But the consumer side is more complicated because poll won't go into a nice sleep state. You have to handle that yourself.

Error: Unable to run mksdcard SDK tool

This really needs to be added to the documentation, which is why I filed an issue about it a few months ago...

You need some 32-bit binaries, and you have a 64-bit OS version (apparently). Try:

sudo apt-get install lib32z1 lib32ncurses5 lib32bz2-1.0 lib32stdc++6

That worked for me on Ubuntu 14.10.

How to check if a radiobutton is checked in a radiogroup in Android?

mRadioGroup.setOnCheckedChangeListener(new RadioGroup.OnCheckedChangeListener() {
        @Override

                text = "female";
            }
        }

OR

 mRadioGroup.setOnCheckedChangeListener(new RadioGroup.OnCheckedChangeListener() {
        @Override
        public void onCheckedChanged(RadioGroup radioGroup, int i) {
            if (mRadioButtonMale.isChecked()) { text = "male"; }

How to get controls in WPF to fill available space?

Well, I figured it out myself, right after posting, which is the most embarassing way. :)

It seems every member of a StackPanel will simply fill its minimum requested size.

In the DockPanel, I had docked things in the wrong order. If the TextBox or ListBox is the only docked item without an alignment, or if they are the last added, they WILL fill the remaining space as wanted.

I would love to see a more elegant method of handling this, but it will do.

Bootstrap collapse animation not smooth

Adding to @CR Rollyson answer,

In case if you have a collapsible div which has a min-height attribute, it will also cause the jerking. Try removing that attribute from directly collapsible div. Use it in the child div of the collapsible div.

<div class="form-group">
    <a for="collapseOne" data-toggle="collapse" href="#collapseOne" aria-expanded="true" aria-controls="collapseOne">+ Not Jerky</a>
    <div class="collapse" id="collapseOne" style="padding: 0;">
        <textarea class="form-control" rows="4" style="padding: 20px;">No padding on animated element. Padding on child.</textarea>
    </div>
</div>

Delegation: EventEmitter or Observable in Angular

I found out another solution for this case without using Reactivex neither services. I actually love the rxjx API however I think it goes best when resolving an async and/or complex function. Using It in that way, Its pretty exceeded to me.

What I think you are looking for is for a broadcast. Just that. And I found out this solution:

<app>
  <app-nav (selectedTab)="onSelectedTab($event)"></app-nav>
       // This component bellow wants to know when a tab is selected
       // broadcast here is a property of app component
  <app-interested [broadcast]="broadcast"></app-interested>
</app>

 @Component class App {
   broadcast: EventEmitter<tab>;

   constructor() {
     this.broadcast = new EventEmitter<tab>();
   }

   onSelectedTab(tab) {
     this.broadcast.emit(tab)
   }    
 }

 @Component class AppInterestedComponent implements OnInit {
   broadcast: EventEmitter<Tab>();

   doSomethingWhenTab(tab){ 
      ...
    }     

   ngOnInit() {
     this.broadcast.subscribe((tab) => this.doSomethingWhenTab(tab))
   }
 }

This is a full working example: https://plnkr.co/edit/xGVuFBOpk2GP0pRBImsE

changing permission for files and folder recursively using shell command in mac

The issue is that the * is getting interpreted by your shell and is expanding to a file named TEST_FILE that happens to be in your current working directory, so you're telling find to execute the command named TEST_FILE which doesn't exist. I'm not sure what you're trying to accomplish with that *, you should just remove it.

Furthermore, you should use the idiom -exec program '{}' \+ instead of -exec program '{}' \; so that find doesn't fork a new process for each file. With ;, a new process is forked for each file, whereas with +, it only forks one process and passes all of the files on a single command line, which for simple programs like chmod is much more efficient.

Lastly, chmod can do recursive changes on its own with the -R flag, so unless you need to search for specific files, just do this:

chmod -R 777 /Users/Test/Desktop/PATH

JUnit Eclipse Plugin?

JUnit is part of Eclipse Java Development Tools (JDT). So, either install the JDT via Software Updates or download and install Eclipse IDE for Java Developers (actually, I'd recommend installing Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers if you want a complete built-in environment for server side development).

You add it to a project by right clicking the project in the Package Explorer and selecting Build Path -> Add Libraries... Then simply select JUnit and click Next >.

Change Toolbar color in Appcompat 21

UPDATE 12/11/2019: Material Components Library

With the Material Components and Androidx libraries you can use:

  • the android:background attribute in the layout:

    <com.google.android.material.appbar.MaterialToolbar
        android:id="@+id/toolbar"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
        android:background="?attr/colorPrimary"
    
  • apply the default style: style="@style/Widget.MaterialComponents.Toolbar.Primary" or customize the style inheriting from it:

    <com.google.android.material.appbar.MaterialToolbar
        android:id="@+id/toolbar"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
        style="@style/Widget.MaterialComponents.Toolbar.Primary"
    
  • override the default color using the android:theme attribute:

    <com.google.android.material.appbar.MaterialToolbar
        android:id="@+id/toolbar"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
        android:theme="@style/MyThemeOverlay_Toolbar"
    

with:

  <style name="MyThemeOverlay_Toolbar" parent="ThemeOverlay.MaterialComponents.Toolbar.Primary">
    <item name="android:textColorPrimary">....</item>
    <item name="colorPrimary">@color/.....
    <item name="colorOnPrimary">@color/....</item>
  </style>

OLD: Support libraries:
You can use a app:theme="@style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Dark.ActionBar" theme as suggested in other answers, but you can also use a solution like this:

<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    style="@style/HeaderBar"
    app:theme="@style/ActionBarThemeOverlay"
    app:popupTheme="@style/ActionBarPopupThemeOverlay"/>

And you can have the full control of your ui elements with these styles:

<style name="ActionBarThemeOverlay" parent="">
    <item name="android:textColorPrimary">#fff</item>
    <item name="colorControlNormal">#fff</item>
    <item name="colorControlHighlight">#3fff</item>
</style>

<style name="HeaderBar">
    <item name="android:background">?colorPrimary</item>
</style>

<style name="ActionBarPopupThemeOverlay" parent="ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Light" >
    <item name="android:background">@android:color/white</item>
    <item name="android:textColor">#000</item>
</style>

What's the difference between eval, exec, and compile?

  1. exec is not an expression: a statement in Python 2.x, and a function in Python 3.x. It compiles and immediately evaluates a statement or set of statement contained in a string. Example:

     exec('print(5)')           # prints 5.
     # exec 'print 5'     if you use Python 2.x, nor the exec neither the print is a function there
     exec('print(5)\nprint(6)')  # prints 5{newline}6.
     exec('if True: print(6)')  # prints 6.
     exec('5')                 # does nothing and returns nothing.
    
  2. eval is a built-in function (not a statement), which evaluates an expression and returns the value that expression produces. Example:

     x = eval('5')              # x <- 5
     x = eval('%d + 6' % x)     # x <- 11
     x = eval('abs(%d)' % -100) # x <- 100
     x = eval('x = 5')          # INVALID; assignment is not an expression.
     x = eval('if 1: x = 4')    # INVALID; if is a statement, not an expression.
    
  3. compile is a lower level version of exec and eval. It does not execute or evaluate your statements or expressions, but returns a code object that can do it. The modes are as follows:

  4. compile(string, '', 'eval') returns the code object that would have been executed had you done eval(string). Note that you cannot use statements in this mode; only a (single) expression is valid.

  5. compile(string, '', 'exec') returns the code object that would have been executed had you done exec(string). You can use any number of statements here.

  6. compile(string, '', 'single') is like the exec mode but expects exactly one expression/statement, eg compile('a=1 if 1 else 3', 'myf', mode='single')

A SQL Query to select a string between two known strings

I had a similar need to parse out a set of parameters stored within an IIS logs' csUriQuery field, which looked like this: id=3598308&user=AD\user&parameter=1&listing=No needed in this format.

I ended up creating a User-defined function to accomplish a string between, with the following assumptions:

  1. If the starting occurrence is not found, a NULL is returned, and
  2. If the ending occurrence is not found, the rest of the string is returned

Here's the code:

CREATE FUNCTION dbo.str_between(@col varchar(max), @start varchar(50), @end varchar(50))  
  RETURNS varchar(max)  
  WITH EXECUTE AS CALLER  
AS  
BEGIN  
  RETURN substring(@col, charindex(@start, @col) + len(@start), 
         isnull(nullif(charindex(@end, stuff(@col, 1, charindex(@start, @col)-1, '')),0),
         len(stuff(@col, 1, charindex(@start, @col)-1, ''))+1) - len(@start)-1);
END;  
GO

For the above question, the usage is as follows:

DECLARE @a VARCHAR(MAX) = 'All I knew was that the dog had been very bad and required harsh punishment immediately regardless of what anyone else thought.'
SELECT dbo.str_between(@a, 'the dog', 'immediately')
-- Yields' had been very bad and required harsh punishment '

Validate email address textbox using JavaScript

Assuming your regular expression is correct:

function validateEmail(emailField){
        var reg = /^([A-Za-z0-9_\-\.])+\@([A-Za-z0-9_\-\.])+\.([A-Za-z]{2,4})$/;

        if (reg.test(emailField.value) == false) 
        {
            alert('Invalid Email Address');
            return false;
        }

        return true;

}

in your textfield:

<input type="text" onblur="validateEmail(this);" />

REST HTTP status codes for failed validation or invalid duplicate

  • Failed validation: 403 Forbidden ("The server understood the request, but is refusing to fulfill it"). Contrary to popular opinion, RFC2616 doesn't say "403 is only intended for failed authentication", but "403: I know what you want, but I won't do that". That condition may or may not be due to authentication.
  • Trying to add a duplicate: 409 Conflict ("The request could not be completed due to a conflict with the current state of the resource.")

You should definitely give a more detailed explanation in the response headers and/or body (e.g. with a custom header - X-Status-Reason: Validation failed).

How to lowercase a pandas dataframe string column if it has missing values?

Another possible solution, in case the column has not only strings but numbers too, is to use astype(str).str.lower() or to_string(na_rep='') because otherwise, given that a number is not a string, when lowered it will return NaN, therefore:

import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
df=pd.DataFrame(['ONE','Two', np.nan,2],columns=['x']) 
xSecureLower = df['x'].to_string(na_rep='').lower()
xLower = df['x'].str.lower()

then we have:

>>> xSecureLower
0    one
1    two
2   
3      2
Name: x, dtype: object

and not

>>> xLower
0    one
1    two
2    NaN
3    NaN
Name: x, dtype: object

edit:

if you don't want to lose the NaNs, then using map will be better, (from @wojciech-walczak, and @cs95 comment) it will look something like this

xSecureLower = df['x'].map(lambda x: x.lower() if isinstance(x,str) else x)

Git merge master into feature branch

You should be able to rebase your branch on master:

git checkout feature1
git rebase master

Manage all conflicts that arise. When you get to the commits with the bugfixes (already in master), Git will say that there were no changes and that maybe they were already applied. You then continue the rebase (while skipping the commits already in master) with

git rebase --skip

If you perform a git log on your feature branch, you'll see the bugfix commit appear only once, and in the master portion.

For a more detailed discussion, take a look at the Git book documentation on git rebase (https://git-scm.com/docs/git-rebase) which cover this exact use case.

================ Edit for additional context ====================

This answer was provided specifically for the question asked by @theomega, taking his particular situation into account. Note this part:

I want to prevent [...] commits on my feature branch which have no relation to the feature implementation.

Rebasing his private branch on master is exactly what will yield that result. In contrast, merging master into his branch would precisely do what he specifically does not want to happen: adding a commit that is not related to the feature implementation he is working on via his branch.

To address the users that read the question title, skip over the actual content and context of the question, and then only read the top answer blindly assuming it will always apply to their (different) use case, allow me to elaborate:

  • only rebase private branches (i.e. that only exist in your local repository and haven't been shared with others). Rebasing shared branches would "break" the copies other people may have.
  • if you want to integrate changes from a branch (whether it's master or another branch) into a branch that is public (e.g. you've pushed the branch to open a pull request, but there are now conflicts with master, and you need to update your branch to resolve those conflicts) you'll need to merge them in (e.g. with git merge master as in @Sven's answer).
  • you can also merge branches into your local private branches if that's your preference, but be aware that it will result in "foreign" commits in your branch.

Finally, if you're unhappy with the fact that this answer is not the best fit for your situation even though it was for @theomega, adding a comment below won't be particularly helpful: I don't control which answer is selected, only @theomega does.

Style disabled button with CSS

For the disabled buttons you can use the :disabled pseudo-element. It works for all the elements.

For browsers/devices supporting CSS2 only, you can use the [disabled] selector.

As with the image, don't put an image in the button. Use CSS background-image with background-position and background-repeat. That way, the image dragging will not occur.

Selection problem: here is a link to the specific question:

Example for the disabled selector:
