How are VST Plugins made?

I wrote up a HOWTO for VST development on C++ with Visual Studio awhile back which details the steps necessary to create a basic plugin for the Windows platform (the Mac version of this article is forthcoming). On Windows, a VST plugin is just a normal DLL, but there are a number of "gotchas", and you need to build the plugin using some specific compiler/linker switches or else it won't be recognized by some hosts.

As for the Mac, a VST plugin is just a bundle with the .vst extension, though there are also a few settings which must be configured correctly in order to generate a valid plugin. You can also download a set of Xcode VST plugin project templates I made awhile back which can help you to write a working plugin on that platform.

As for AudioUnits, Apple has provided their own project templates which are included with Xcode. Apple also has very good tutorials and documentation online:

I would also highly recommend checking out the Juce Framework, which has excellent support for creating cross-platform VST/AU plugins. If you're going open-source, then Juce is a no-brainer, but you will need to pay licensing fees for it if you plan on releasing your work without source code.

What size do you use for varchar(MAX) in your parameter declaration?

You do not need to pass the size parameter, just declare Varchar already understands that it is MAX like:

cmd.Parameters.Add("@blah",SqlDbType.VarChar).Value = "some large text";

Use LINQ to get items in one List<>, that are not in another List<>

Once you write a generic FuncEqualityComparer you can use it everywhere.

peopleList2.Except(peopleList1, new FuncEqualityComparer<Person>((p, q) => p.ID == q.ID));

public class FuncEqualityComparer<T> : IEqualityComparer<T>
{
    private readonly Func<T, T, bool> comparer;
    private readonly Func<T, int> hash;

    public FuncEqualityComparer(Func<T, T, bool> comparer)
    {
        this.comparer = comparer;
        if (typeof(T).GetMethod(nameof(object.GetHashCode)).DeclaringType == typeof(object))
            hash = (_) => 0;
        else
            hash = t => t.GetHashCode(); 
    }

    public bool Equals(T x, T y) => comparer(x, y);
    public int GetHashCode(T obj) => hash(obj);
}

Set Focus After Last Character in Text Box

This works fine for me . [Ref: the very nice plug in by Gavin G]

(function($){
    $.fn.focusTextToEnd = function(){
        this.focus();
        var $thisVal = this.val();
        this.val('').val($thisVal);
        return this;
    }
}(jQuery));

$('#mytext').focusTextToEnd();

How to divide two columns?

Presumably, those columns are integer columns - which will be the reason as the result of the calculation will be of the same type.

e.g. if you do this:

SELECT 1 / 2

you will get 0, which is obviously not the real answer. So, convert the values to e.g. decimal and do the calculation based on that datatype instead.

e.g.

SELECT CAST(1 AS DECIMAL) / 2

gives 0.500000

Simple two column html layout without using tables

If you want to do it the HTML5 way (this particular code works better for things like blogs, where <article> is used multiple times, once for each blog entry teaser; ultimately, the elements themselves don't matter much, it's the styling and element placement that will get you your desired results):

<style type="text/css">
article {
  float: left;
  width: 500px;
}

aside {
  float: right;
  width: 200px;
}

#wrap {
  width: 700px;
  margin: 0 auto;
}
</style>

<div id="wrap">
  <article>
     Main content here
  </article>
  <aside>
     Sidebar stuff here
  </aside>
</div>

Git - Pushing code to two remotes

In recent versions of Git you can add multiple pushurls for a given remote. Use the following to add two pushurls to your origin:

git remote set-url --add --push origin git://original/repo.git
git remote set-url --add --push origin git://another/repo.git

So when you push to origin, it will push to both repositories.

UPDATE 1: Git 1.8.0.1 and 1.8.1 (and possibly other versions) seem to have a bug that causes --add to replace the original URL the first time you use it, so you need to re-add the original URL using the same command. Doing git remote -v should reveal the current URLs for each remote.

UPDATE 2: Junio C. Hamano, the Git maintainer, explained it's how it was designed. Doing git remote set-url --add --push <remote_name> <url> adds a pushurl for a given remote, which overrides the default URL for pushes. However, you may add multiple pushurls for a given remote, which then allows you to push to multiple remotes using a single git push. You can verify this behavior below:

$ git clone git://original/repo.git
$ git remote -v
origin  git://original/repo.git (fetch)
origin  git://original/repo.git (push)
$ git config -l | grep '^remote\.'
remote.origin.url=git://original/repo.git
remote.origin.fetch=+refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*

Now, if you want to push to two or more repositories using a single command, you may create a new remote named all (as suggested by @Adam Nelson in comments), or keep using the origin, though the latter name is less descriptive for this purpose. If you still want to use origin, skip the following step, and use origin instead of all in all other steps.

So let's add a new remote called all that we'll reference later when pushing to multiple repositories:

$ git remote add all git://original/repo.git
$ git remote -v
all git://original/repo.git (fetch)               <-- ADDED
all git://original/repo.git (push)                <-- ADDED
origin  git://original/repo.git (fetch)
origin  git://original/repo.git (push)
$ git config -l | grep '^remote\.all'
remote.all.url=git://original/repo.git            <-- ADDED
remote.all.fetch=+refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/all/* <-- ADDED

Then let's add a pushurl to the all remote, pointing to another repository:

$ git remote set-url --add --push all git://another/repo.git
$ git remote -v
all git://original/repo.git (fetch)
all git://another/repo.git (push)                 <-- CHANGED
origin  git://original/repo.git (fetch)
origin  git://original/repo.git (push)
$ git config -l | grep '^remote\.all'
remote.all.url=git://original/repo.git
remote.all.fetch=+refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/all/*
remote.all.pushurl=git://another/repo.git         <-- ADDED

Here git remote -v shows the new pushurl for push, so if you do git push all master, it will push the master branch to git://another/repo.git only. This shows how pushurl overrides the default url (remote.all.url).

Now let's add another pushurl pointing to the original repository:

$ git remote set-url --add --push all git://original/repo.git
$ git remote -v
all git://original/repo.git (fetch)
all git://another/repo.git (push)
all git://original/repo.git (push)                <-- ADDED
origin  git://original/repo.git (fetch)
origin  git://original/repo.git (push)
$ git config -l | grep '^remote\.all'
remote.all.url=git://original/repo.git
remote.all.fetch=+refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/all/*
remote.all.pushurl=git://another/repo.git
remote.all.pushurl=git://original/repo.git        <-- ADDED

You see both pushurls we added are kept. Now a single git push all master will push the master branch to both git://another/repo.git and git://original/repo.git.

In a bootstrap responsive page how to center a div

Update for Bootstrap 4

Now that Bootstrap 4 is flexbox, vertical alignment is easier. Given a full height flexbox div, just us my-auto for even top and bottom margins...

<div class="container h-100 d-flex justify-content-center">
    <div class="jumbotron my-auto">
      <h1 class="display-3">Hello, world!</h1>
    </div>

Android ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE Intent

this is a well documented bug in some versions of android. that is, on google experience builds of android, image capture doesn't work as documented. what i've generally used is something like this in a utilities class.

public boolean hasImageCaptureBug() {

    // list of known devices that have the bug
    ArrayList<String> devices = new ArrayList<String>();
    devices.add("android-devphone1/dream_devphone/dream");
    devices.add("generic/sdk/generic");
    devices.add("vodafone/vfpioneer/sapphire");
    devices.add("tmobile/kila/dream");
    devices.add("verizon/voles/sholes");
    devices.add("google_ion/google_ion/sapphire");

    return devices.contains(android.os.Build.BRAND + "/" + android.os.Build.PRODUCT + "/"
            + android.os.Build.DEVICE);

}

then when i launch image capture, i create an intent that checks for the bug.

Intent i = new Intent(android.provider.MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
if (hasImageCaptureBug()) {
    i.putExtra(android.provider.MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, Uri.fromFile(new File("/sdcard/tmp")));
} else {
    i.putExtra(android.provider.MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, android.provider.MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI);
}
startActivityForResult(i, mRequestCode);

then in activity that i return to, i do different things based on the device.

protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent intent) {
     switch (requestCode) {
         case GlobalConstants.IMAGE_CAPTURE:
             Uri u;
             if (hasImageCaptureBug()) {
                 File fi = new File("/sdcard/tmp");
                 try {
                     u = Uri.parse(android.provider.MediaStore.Images.Media.insertImage(getContentResolver(), fi.getAbsolutePath(), null, null));
                     if (!fi.delete()) {
                         Log.i("logMarker", "Failed to delete " + fi);
                     }
                 } catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
                     e.printStackTrace();
                 }
             } else {
                u = intent.getData();
            }
    }

this saves you having to write a new camera app, but this code isn't great either. the big problems are

  1. you never get full sized images from the devices with the bug. you get pictures that are 512px wide that are inserted into the image content provider. on devices without the bug, everything works as document, you get a big normal picture.

  2. you have to maintain the list. as written, it is possible for devices to be flashed with a version of android (say cyanogenmod's builds) that has the bug fixed. if that happens, your code will crash. the fix is to use the entire device fingerprint.

VBA check if file exists

I use this function to check for file existence:

Function IsFile(ByVal fName As String) As Boolean
'Returns TRUE if the provided name points to an existing file.
'Returns FALSE if not existing, or if it's a folder
    On Error Resume Next
    IsFile = ((GetAttr(fName) And vbDirectory) <> vbDirectory)
End Function

Sort a single String in Java

str.chars().boxed().map(Character::toString).sorted().collect(Collectors.joining())

or

s.chars().mapToObj(Character::toString).sorted().collect(Collectors.joining())

or

Arrays.stream(str.split("")).sorted().collect(Collectors.joining())

How to get the Google Map based on Latitude on Longitude?

Create a URI like this one:

https://maps.google.com/?q=[lat],[long]

For example:

https://maps.google.com/?q=-37.866963,144.980615

or, if you are using the javascript API

map.setCenter(new GLatLng(0,0))

This, and other helpful info comes from here:

https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/reference/?csw=1#Map

Automatically start forever (node) on system restart

You need to create a shell script in the /etc/init.d folder for that. It's sort of complicated if you never have done it but there is plenty of information on the web on init.d scripts.

Here is a sample a script that I created to run a CoffeeScript site with forever:

#!/bin/bash
#
# initd-example      Node init.d 
#
# chkconfig: 345 
# description: Script to start a coffee script application through forever
# processname: forever/coffeescript/node
# pidfile: /var/run/forever-initd-hectorcorrea.pid 
# logfile: /var/run/forever-initd-hectorcorrea.log
#
# Based on a script posted by https://gist.github.com/jinze at https://gist.github.com/3748766
#


# Source function library.
. /lib/lsb/init-functions


pidFile=/var/run/forever-initd-hectorcorrea.pid 
logFile=/var/run/forever-initd-hectorcorrea.log 

sourceDir=/home/hectorlinux/website
coffeeFile=app.coffee
scriptId=$sourceDir/$coffeeFile


start() {
    echo "Starting $scriptId"

    # This is found in the library referenced at the top of the script
    start_daemon

    # Start our CoffeeScript app through forever
    # Notice that we change the PATH because on reboot
    # the PATH does not include the path to node.
    # Launching forever or coffee with a full path
    # does not work unless we set the PATH.
    cd $sourceDir
    PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH
    NODE_ENV=production PORT=80 forever start --pidFile $pidFile -l $logFile -a -d --sourceDir $sourceDir/ -c coffee $coffeeFile

    RETVAL=$?
}

restart() {
    echo -n "Restarting $scriptId"
    /usr/local/bin/forever restart $scriptId
    RETVAL=$?
}

stop() {
    echo -n "Shutting down $scriptId"
    /usr/local/bin/forever stop $scriptId
    RETVAL=$?
}

status() {
    echo -n "Status $scriptId"
    /usr/local/bin/forever list
    RETVAL=$?
}


case "$1" in
    start)
        start
        ;;
    stop)
        stop
        ;;
    status)
        status
        ;;
    restart)
        restart
        ;;
    *)
        echo "Usage:  {start|stop|status|restart}"
        exit 1
        ;;
esac
exit $RETVAL

I had to make sure the folder and PATHs were explicitly set or available to the root user since init.d scripts are ran as root.

How do I convert strings in a Pandas data frame to a 'date' data type?

Essentially equivalent to @waitingkuo, but I would use to_datetime here (it seems a little cleaner, and offers some additional functionality e.g. dayfirst):

In [11]: df
Out[11]:
   a        time
0  1  2013-01-01
1  2  2013-01-02
2  3  2013-01-03

In [12]: pd.to_datetime(df['time'])
Out[12]:
0   2013-01-01 00:00:00
1   2013-01-02 00:00:00
2   2013-01-03 00:00:00
Name: time, dtype: datetime64[ns]

In [13]: df['time'] = pd.to_datetime(df['time'])

In [14]: df
Out[14]:
   a                time
0  1 2013-01-01 00:00:00
1  2 2013-01-02 00:00:00
2  3 2013-01-03 00:00:00

Handling ValueErrors
If you run into a situation where doing

df['time'] = pd.to_datetime(df['time'])

Throws a

ValueError: Unknown string format

That means you have invalid (non-coercible) values. If you are okay with having them converted to pd.NaT, you can add an errors='coerce' argument to to_datetime:

df['time'] = pd.to_datetime(df['time'], errors='coerce')

How line ending conversions work with git core.autocrlf between different operating systems

core.autocrlf value does not depend on OS type but on Windows default value is true and for Linux - input. I explored 3 possible values for commit and checkout cases and this is the resulting table:

+------------------------------------------------------------+
¦ core.autocrlf ¦     false    ¦     input    ¦     true     ¦
¦---------------+--------------+--------------+--------------¦
¦               ¦ LF   => LF   ¦ LF   => LF   ¦ LF   => LF   ¦
¦ git commit    ¦ CR   => CR   ¦ CR   => CR   ¦ CR   => CR   ¦
¦               ¦ CRLF => CRLF ¦ CRLF => LF   ¦ CRLF => LF   ¦
¦---------------+--------------+--------------+--------------¦
¦               ¦ LF   => LF   ¦ LF   => LF   ¦ LF   => CRLF ¦
¦ git checkout  ¦ CR   => CR   ¦ CR   => CR   ¦ CR   => CR   ¦
¦               ¦ CRLF => CRLF ¦ CRLF => CRLF ¦ CRLF => CRLF ¦

Why does the arrow (->) operator in C exist?

C also does a good job at not making anything ambiguous.

Sure the dot could be overloaded to mean both things, but the arrow makes sure that the programmer knows that he's operating on a pointer, just like when the compiler won't let you mix two incompatible types.

Naming convention - underscore in C++ and C# variables

With C#, Microsoft Framework Design Guidelines suggest not using the underscore character for public members. For private members, underscores are OK to use. In fact, Jeffrey Richter (often cited in the guidelines) uses an m_ for instance and a "s_" for private static memberss.

Personally, I use just _ to mark my private members. "m_" and "s_" verge on Hungarian notation which is not only frowned upon in .NET, but can be quite verbose and I find classes with many members difficult to do a quick eye scan alphabetically (imagine 10 variables all starting with m_).

Iterate over array of objects in Typescript

You can use the built-in forEach function for arrays.

Like this:

//this sets all product descriptions to a max length of 10 characters
data.products.forEach( (element) => {
    element.product_desc = element.product_desc.substring(0,10);
});

Your version wasn't wrong though. It should look more like this:

for(let i=0; i<data.products.length; i++){
    console.log(data.products[i].product_desc); //use i instead of 0
}

Extending the User model with custom fields in Django

New in Django 1.5, now you can create your own Custom User Model (which seems to be good thing to do in above case). Refer to 'Customizing authentication in Django'

Probably the coolest new feature on 1.5 release.

Angular update object in object array

I would rather create a map

export class item{
    name: string; 
    id: string
}

let caches = new Map<string, item>();

and then you can simply

this.caches[newitem.id] = newitem; 

even

this.caches.set(newitem.id, newitem); 

array is so 1999. :)

How do I make CMake output into a 'bin' dir?

$ cat CMakeLists.txt

How do you represent a JSON array of strings?

Basically yes, JSON is just a javascript literal representation of your value so what you said is correct.

You can find a pretty clear and good explanation of JSON notation on http://json.org/

Submitting a multidimensional array via POST with php

you could submit all parameters with such naming:

params[0][topdiameter]
params[0][bottomdiameter]
params[1][topdiameter]
params[1][bottomdiameter]

then later you do something like this:

foreach ($_REQUEST['params'] as $item) {
    echo $item['topdiameter'];
    echo $item['bottomdiameter'];
}

How to know if an object has an attribute in Python

I would like to suggest avoid this:

try:
    doStuff(a.property)
except AttributeError:
    otherStuff()

The user @jpalecek mentioned it: If an AttributeError occurs inside doStuff(), you are lost.

Maybe this approach is better:

try:
    val = a.property
except AttributeError:
    otherStuff()
else:
    doStuff(val)

How to fill in proxy information in cntlm config file?

Without any configuration, you can simply issue the following command (modifying myusername and mydomain with your own information):

cntlm -u myusername -d mydomain -H

or

cntlm -u myusername@mydomain -H

It will ask you the password of myusername and will give you the following output:

PassLM          1AD35398BE6565DDB5C4EF70C0593492
PassNT          77B9081511704EE852F94227CF48A793
PassNTLMv2      A8FC9092D566461E6BEA971931EF1AEC    # Only for user 'myusername', domain 'mydomain'

Then create the file cntlm.ini (or cntlm.conf on Linux using default path) with the following content (replacing your myusername, mydomain and A8FC9092D566461E6BEA971931EF1AEC with your information and the result of the previous command):

Username    myusername
Domain      mydomain

Proxy       my_proxy_server.com:80
NoProxy     127.0.0.*, 192.168.*

Listen      127.0.0.1:5865
Gateway     yes

SOCKS5Proxy 5866

Auth        NTLMv2
PassNTLMv2  A8FC9092D566461E6BEA971931EF1AEC

Then you will have a local open proxy on local port 5865 and another one understanding SOCKS5 protocol at local port 5866.

How to add items to a combobox in a form in excel VBA?

The method I prefer assigns an array of data to the combobox. Click on the body of your userform and change the "Click" event to "Initialize". Now the combobox will fill upon the initializing of the userform. I hope this helps.

Sub UserForm_Initialize()
  ComboBox1.List = Array("1001", "1002", "1003", "1004", "1005", "1006", "1007", "1008", "1009", "1010")
End Sub

How to avoid scientific notation for large numbers in JavaScript?

The question of the post was avoiding e notation numbers and having the number as a plain number.

Therefore, if all is needed is to convert e (scientific) notation numbers to plain numbers (including in the case of fractional numbers) without loss of accuracy, then it is essential to avoid the use of the Math object and other javascript number methods so that rounding does not occur when large numbers and large fractions are handled (which always happens due to the internal storage in binary format).

The following function converts e (scientific) notation numbers to plain numbers (including fractions) handling both large numbers and large fractions without loss of accuracy as it does not use the built-in math and number functions to handle or manipulate the number.

The function also handles normal numbers, so that a number that is suspected to become in an 'e' notation can be passed to the function for fixing.

The function should work with different locale decimal points.

94 test cases are provided.

For large e-notation numbers pass the number as a string.

Examples:

eToNumber("123456789123456789.111122223333444455556666777788889999e+50");
// output:
"12345678912345678911112222333344445555666677778888999900000000000000"
eToNumber("123.456123456789123456895e-80");
// output:
"0.00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000123456123456789123456895"
eToNumber("123456789123456789.111122223333444455556666777788889999e-50");
// output:
"0.00000000000000000000000000000000123456789123456789111122223333444455556666777788889999"

Valid e-notation numbers in Javascript include the following:

123e1   ==> 1230
123E1   ==> 1230
123e+1  ==> 1230
123.e+1 ==> 1230
123e-1  ==> 12.3
0.1e-1  ==> 0.01
.1e-1   ==> 0.01
-123e1  ==> -1230

if checkbox is checked, do this

Probably you can go with this code to take actions as the checkbox is checked or unchecked.

$('#chk').on('click',function(){
    if(this.checked==true){
      alert('yes');
    }else{
      alert('no');
    }
});

SSIS Connection not found in package

It seems that your ssis package is pointing to some other connection which might have been deleted or renamed .Try opening the SSIS compoenents and point to the correct connection which are there in your connection manager .

It happens when we copy the SSIS package components to create a new package or because of renaming the connections or there may be still components which are using the old connection defined in you xml config file( In your case try checking the Execute SQL Task which is throwing error ) .If you are using XML for configuration try deploying the new one.

How do I get milliseconds from epoch (1970-01-01) in Java?

java.time

Using the java.time framework built into Java 8 and later.

import java.time.Instant;

Instant.now().toEpochMilli(); //Long = 1450879900184
Instant.now().getEpochSecond(); //Long = 1450879900

This works in UTC because Instant.now() is really call to Clock.systemUTC().instant()

https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/time/Instant.html

What is a LAMP stack?

Linux operating system

Apache web server

MySQL database

and PHP

Reference: LAMP (software bundle)

The "stack" term means stack! That means if you have experience in working with these technologies/framework or not. Since all these come together in a LAMP package, which you can download and install, they call it a stack.

Maven "build path specifies execution environment J2SE-1.5", even though I changed it to 1.7

I was facing the same issue. In pom.xml I have specified maven compiler plugin to pick 1.7 as source and target. Even then when I would import the git project in eclipse it would pick 1.5 as compile version for the project. To be noted that the eclipse has installed runtime set to JDK 1.8

I also checked that none of the .classpath .impl or .project file is checked in git repository.

Solution that worked for me: I simply deleted .classpath files and did a 'maven-update project'. .classpath file was regenerated and it picked up 1.7 as compile version from pom file.

Get difference between two dates in months using Java

You can use Joda time library for Java. It would be much easier to calculate time-diff between dates with it.

Sample snippet for time-diff:

Days d = Days.daysBetween(startDate, endDate);
int days = d.getDays();

Detect if range is empty

Another possible solution. Count empty cells and subtract that value from the total number of cells

Sub Emptys()

Dim r As range
Dim totalCells As Integer

'My range To check'
Set r = ActiveSheet.range("A1:B5")

'Check for filled cells'
totalCells = r.Count- WorksheetFunction.CountBlank(r)


If totalCells = 0 Then
    MsgBox "Range is empty"
Else
    MsgBox "Range is not empty"
End If

End Sub

Convert Pixels to Points

Using wxPython on Mac to get the correct DPI as follows:

    from wx import ScreenDC
    from wx import Size

    size: Size = ScreenDC().GetPPI()
    print(f'x-DPI: {size.GetWidth()} y-DPI: {size.GetHeight()}')

This yields:

x-DPI: 72 y-DPI: 72

Thus, the formula is:

points: int = (pixelNumber * 72) // 72

Loop over array dimension in plpgsql

Since PostgreSQL 9.1 there is the convenient FOREACH:

DO
$do$
DECLARE
   m   varchar[];
   arr varchar[] := array[['key1','val1'],['key2','val2']];
BEGIN
   FOREACH m SLICE 1 IN ARRAY arr
   LOOP
      RAISE NOTICE 'another_func(%,%)',m[1], m[2];
   END LOOP;
END
$do$

Solution for older versions:

DO
$do$
DECLARE
   arr varchar[] := '{{key1,val1},{key2,val2}}';
BEGIN
   FOR i IN array_lower(arr, 1) .. array_upper(arr, 1)
   LOOP
      RAISE NOTICE 'another_func(%,%)',arr[i][1], arr[i][2];
   END LOOP;
END
$do$

Also, there is no difference between varchar[] and varchar[][] for the PostgreSQL type system. I explain in more detail here.

The DO statement requires at least PostgreSQL 9.0, and LANGUAGE plpgsql is the default (so you can omit the declaration).

Getting a UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning when testing using mocha/chai

I faced this issue:

(node:1131004) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Unhandled promise rejection (re jection id: 1): TypeError: res.json is not a function (node:1131004) DeprecationWarning: Unhandled promise rejections are deprecated. In the future, promise rejections that are not handled will terminate the Node.j s process with a non-zero exit code.

It was my mistake, I was replacing res object in then(function(res), so changed res to result and now it is working.

Wrong

module.exports.update = function(req, res){
        return Services.User.update(req.body)
                .then(function(res){//issue was here, res overwrite
                    return res.json(res);
                }, function(error){
                    return res.json({error:error.message});
                }).catch(function () {
                   console.log("Promise Rejected");
              });

Correction

module.exports.update = function(req, res){
        return Services.User.update(req.body)
                .then(function(result){//res replaced with result
                    return res.json(result);
                }, function(error){
                    return res.json({error:error.message});
                }).catch(function () {
                   console.log("Promise Rejected");
              });

Service code:

function update(data){
   var id = new require('mongodb').ObjectID(data._id);
        userData = {
                    name:data.name,
                    email:data.email,
                    phone: data.phone
                };
 return collection.findAndModify(
          {_id:id}, // query
          [['_id','asc']],  // sort order
          {$set: userData}, // replacement
          { "new": true }
          ).then(function(doc) {
                if(!doc)
                    throw new Error('Record not updated.');
                return doc.value;   
          });
    }

module.exports = {
        update:update
}

How to manually install a pypi module without pip/easy_install?

To further explain Sheena's answer, I needed to have setup-tools installed as a dependency of another tool e.g. more-itertools.

Download

Click the Clone or download button and choose your method. I placed these into a dev/py/libs directory in my user home directory. It does not matter where they are saved, because they will not be installed there.

Installing setup-tools

You will need to run the following inside the setup-tools directory.

python bootstrap.py
python setup.py install

General dependencies installation

Now you can navigate to the more-itertools direcotry and install it as normal.

  1. Download the package
  2. Unpackage it if it's an archive
  3. Navigate (cd ...) into the directory containing setup.py
  4. If there are any installation instructions contained in the documentation contained herein, read and follow the instructions OTHERWISE
  5. Type in: python setup.py install

Is there a CSS selector for elements containing certain text?

If I read the specification correctly, no.

You can match on an element, the name of an attribute in the element, and the value of a named attribute in an element. I don't see anything for matching content within an element, though.

jQuery append() - return appended elements

A little reminder, when elements are added dynamically, functions like append(), appendTo(), prepend() or prependTo() return a jQuery object, not the HTML DOM element.

DEMO

var container=$("div.container").get(0),
    htmlA="<div class=children>A</div>",
    htmlB="<div class=children>B</div>";

// jQuery object
alert( $(container).append(htmlA) ); // outputs "[object Object]"

// HTML DOM element
alert( $(container).append(htmlB).get(0) ); // outputs "[object HTMLDivElement]"

Using PHP with Socket.io

How about this ? PHPSocketio ?? It is a socket.io php server side alternative. The event loop is based on pecl event extension. Though haven't tried it myself till now.

Cross-platform way of getting temp directory in Python

This should do what you want:

print tempfile.gettempdir()

For me on my Windows box, I get:

c:\temp

and on my Linux box I get:

/tmp

Python: find position of element in array

You should do:

try:
    value_index = my_list.index(value)
except:
    value_index = -1;

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

The problem lies in https.conf file!

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

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

How to export datagridview to excel using vb.net?

Excel Method

This method is different than many you will see. Others use a loop to write each cell and write the cells with text data type.

This method creates an object array from a DataTable or DataGridView and then writes the array to Excel. This means I can write to Excel without a loop and retain data types.

I extracted this from my library and I think I changed it enough to work with this code only, but more minor tweaking might be necessary. If you get errors just let me know and I'll correct them for you. Normally, I create an instance of my class and call these methods. If you would like to use my library then use this link to download it and if you need help just let me know.
https://zomp.co/Files.aspx?ID=zExcel


After copying the code to your solution you will use it like this.

In your button code add this and change the names to your controls.

WriteDataGrid("Sheet1", grid)

To open your file after exporting use this line

System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("The location and filename of your file")

In the WriteArray method you'll want to change the line that saves the workbook to where you want to save it. Probably makes sense to add this as a parameter.

wb.SaveAs("C:\MyWorkbook.xlsx")


Public Function WriteArray(Sheet As String, ByRef ObjectArray As Object(,)) As String
    Try
        Dim xl As Excel.Application = New Excel.Application
        Dim wb As Excel.Workbook = xl.Workbooks.Add()
        Dim ws As Excel.Worksheet = wb.Worksheets.Add()
        ws.Name = Sheet
        Dim range As Excel.Range = ws.Range("A1").Resize(ObjectArray.GetLength(0), ObjectArray.GetLength(1))
        range.Value = ObjectArray

I actually don't use this method in my Database program because it's a slow method when you have a lot of rows/columns. I instead create a CSV from the DataGridView. Writing to Excel with Excel Automation is only useful if you need to format the data and cells otherwise you should use CSV. You can use the code after the image for CSV export.


CSV Method

Private Sub DataGridToCSV(ByRef dt As DataGridView, Qualifier As String)  
        Dim TempDirectory As String = "A temp Directory"  
        System.IO.Directory.CreateDirectory(TempDirectory)
        Dim oWrite As System.IO.StreamWriter
        Dim file As String = System.IO.Path.GetRandomFileName & ".csv"
        oWrite = IO.File.CreateText(TempDirectory & "\" & file)

        Dim CSV As StringBuilder = New StringBuilder()

        Dim i As Integer = 1
        Dim CSVHeader As StringBuilder = New StringBuilder()
        For Each c As DataGridViewColumn In dt.Columns
            If i = 1 Then
                CSVHeader.Append(Qualifier & c.HeaderText.ToString() & Qualifier)
            Else
                CSVHeader.Append("," & Qualifier & c.HeaderText.ToString() & Qualifier)
            End If
            i += 1
        Next

        'CSV.AppendLine(CSVHeader.ToString())
        oWrite.WriteLine(CSVHeader.ToString())
        oWrite.Flush()

Reverting single file in SVN to a particular revision

For a single file, you could do:

svn export -r <REV> svn://host/path/to/file/on/repos file.ext

You could do svn revert <file> but that will only restore the last working copy.

How to resolve the C:\fakepath?

Why don't you just use the target.files?

(I'm using React JS on this example)

const onChange = (event) => {
  const value = event.target.value;

  // this will return C:\fakepath\somefile.ext
  console.log(value);

  const files = event.target.files;

  //this will return an ARRAY of File object
  console.log(files);
}

return (
 <input type="file" onChange={onChange} />
)

The File object I'm talking above looks like this:

{
  fullName: "C:\Users\myname\Downloads\somefile.ext"
  lastModified: 1593086858659
  lastModifiedDate: (the date)
  name: "somefile.ext"
  size: 10235546
  type: ""
  webkitRelativePath: ""
}

So then you can just get the fullName if you wanna get the path.

Printing result of mysql query from variable

This will print out the query:

$query = "SELECT order_date, no_of_items, shipping_charge, SUM(total_order_amount) as test FROM `orders` WHERE DATE(`order_date`) = DATE(NOW()) GROUP BY DATE(`order_date`)";

$dave= mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error());
print $query;

This will print out the results:

$query = "SELECT order_date, no_of_items, shipping_charge, SUM(total_order_amount) as test FROM `orders` WHERE DATE(`order_date`) = DATE(NOW()) GROUP BY DATE(`order_date`)";

$dave= mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error());

while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($dave)){
    foreach($row as $cname => $cvalue){
        print "$cname: $cvalue\t";
    }
    print "\r\n";
}

Mockito: Trying to spy on method is calling the original method

I've found yet another reason for spy to call the original method.

Someone had the idea to mock a final class, and found about MockMaker:

As this works differently to our current mechanism and this one has different limitations and as we want to gather experience and user feedback, this feature had to be explicitly activated to be available ; it can be done via the mockito extension mechanism by creating the file src/test/resources/mockito-extensions/org.mockito.plugins.MockMaker containing a single line: mock-maker-inline

Source: https://github.com/mockito/mockito/wiki/What%27s-new-in-Mockito-2#mock-the-unmockable-opt-in-mocking-of-final-classesmethods

After I merged and brought that file to my machine, my tests failed.

I just had to remove the line (or the file), and spy() worked.

Remove the last line from a file in Bash

Here's how you can do it manually (I personally use this method a lot when I need to quickly remove the last line in a file):

vim + [FILE]

That + sign there means that when the file is opened in the vim text editor, the cursor will be positioned on the last line of the file.

Now just press d twice on your keyboard. This will do exactly what you want—remove the last line. After that, press : followed by x and then press Enter. This will save the changes and bring you back to the shell. Now, the last line has been successfully removed.

How to include another XHTML in XHTML using JSF 2.0 Facelets?

Adding minutes to date time in PHP

I thought this would help some when dealing with time zones too. My modified solution is based off of @Tim Cooper's solution, the correct answer above.

$minutes_to_add = 10;
$time = new DateTime();
**$time->setTimezone(new DateTimeZone('America/Toronto'));**
$time->add(new DateInterval('PT' . $minutes_to_add . 'M'));
$timestamp = $time->format("Y/m/d G:i:s");

The bold line, line 3, is the addition. I hope this helps some folks as well.

Name does not exist in the current context

In our case, beside changing ToolsVersion from 14.0 to 15.0 on .csproj projet file, as stated by Dominik Litschauer, we also had to install an updated version of MSBuild, since compilation is being triggered by a Jenkins job. After installing Build Tools for Visual Studio 2019, we had got MsBuild version 16.0 and all new C# features compiled ok.

Adding delay between execution of two following lines

If you're targeting iOS 4.0+, you can do the following:

[executing first operation];
double delayInSeconds = 2.0;
dispatch_time_t popTime = dispatch_time(DISPATCH_TIME_NOW, (int64_t)(delayInSeconds * NSEC_PER_SEC));
dispatch_after(popTime, dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^(void){
    [executing second operation];
});

Groovy String to Date

Googling around for Groovy ways to "cast" a String to a Date, I came across this article: http://www.goodercode.com/wp/intercept-method-calls-groovy-type-conversion/

The author uses Groovy metaMethods to allow dynamically extending the behavior of any class' asType method. Here is the code from the website.

class Convert {
    private from
    private to

    private Convert(clazz) { from = clazz }
    static def from(clazz) {
        new Convert(clazz)
    }

    def to(clazz) {
        to = clazz
        return this
    }

    def using(closure) {
        def originalAsType = from.metaClass.getMetaMethod('asType', [] as Class[])
        from.metaClass.asType = { Class clazz ->
            if( clazz == to ) {
                closure.setProperty('value', delegate)
                closure(delegate)
            } else {
                originalAsType.doMethodInvoke(delegate, clazz)
            }
        }
    }
}

They provide a Convert class that wraps the Groovy complexity, making it trivial to add custom as-based type conversion from any type to any other:

Convert.from( String ).to( Date ).using { new java.text.SimpleDateFormat('MM-dd-yyyy').parse(value) }

def christmas = '12-25-2010' as Date

It's a convenient and powerful solution, but I wouldn't recommend it to someone who isn't familiar with the tradeoffs and pitfalls of tinkering with metaClasses.

How to serialize an object into a string

Sergio:

You should use BLOB. It is pretty straighforward with JDBC.

The problem with the second code you posted is the encoding. You should additionally encode the bytes to make sure none of them fails.

If you still want to write it down into a String you can encode the bytes using java.util.Base64.

Still you should use CLOB as data type because you don't know how long the serialized data is going to be.

Here is a sample of how to use it.

import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;

/** 
 * Usage sample serializing SomeClass instance 
 */
public class ToStringSample {

    public static void main( String [] args )  throws IOException,
                                                      ClassNotFoundException {
        String string = toString( new SomeClass() );
        System.out.println(" Encoded serialized version " );
        System.out.println( string );
        SomeClass some = ( SomeClass ) fromString( string );
        System.out.println( "\n\nReconstituted object");
        System.out.println( some );


    }

    /** Read the object from Base64 string. */
   private static Object fromString( String s ) throws IOException ,
                                                       ClassNotFoundException {
        byte [] data = Base64.getDecoder().decode( s );
        ObjectInputStream ois = new ObjectInputStream( 
                                        new ByteArrayInputStream(  data ) );
        Object o  = ois.readObject();
        ois.close();
        return o;
   }

    /** Write the object to a Base64 string. */
    private static String toString( Serializable o ) throws IOException {
        ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
        ObjectOutputStream oos = new ObjectOutputStream( baos );
        oos.writeObject( o );
        oos.close();
        return Base64.getEncoder().encodeToString(baos.toByteArray()); 
    }
}

/** Test subject. A very simple class. */ 
class SomeClass implements Serializable {

    private final static long serialVersionUID = 1; // See Nick's comment below

    int i    = Integer.MAX_VALUE;
    String s = "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOP";
    Double d = new Double( -1.0 );
    public String toString(){
        return  "SomeClass instance says: Don't worry, " 
              + "I'm healthy. Look, my data is i = " + i  
              + ", s = " + s + ", d = " + d;
    }
}

Output:

Selenium Web Driver & Java. Element is not clickable at point (x, y). Other element would receive the click

WebDriverException: Element is not clickable at point (x, y)

This is a typical org.openqa.selenium.WebDriverException which extends java.lang.RuntimeException.

The fields of this exception are :

  • BASE_SUPPORT_URL : protected static final java.lang.String BASE_SUPPORT_URL
  • DRIVER_INFO : public static final java.lang.String DRIVER_INFO
  • SESSION_ID : public static final java.lang.String SESSION_ID

About your individual usecase, the error tells it all :

WebDriverException: Element is not clickable at point (x, y). Other element would receive the click 

It is clear from your code block that you have defined the wait as WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 10); but you are calling the click() method on the element before the ExplicitWait comes into play as in until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable).

Solution

The error Element is not clickable at point (x, y) can arise from different factors. You can address them by either of the following procedures:

1. Element not getting clicked due to JavaScript or AJAX calls present

Try to use Actions Class:

WebElement element = driver.findElement(By.id("navigationPageButton"));
Actions actions = new Actions(driver);
actions.moveToElement(element).click().build().perform();

2. Element not getting clicked as it is not within Viewport

Try to use JavascriptExecutor to bring the element within the Viewport:

WebElement myelement = driver.findElement(By.id("navigationPageButton"));
JavascriptExecutor jse2 = (JavascriptExecutor)driver;
jse2.executeScript("arguments[0].scrollIntoView()", myelement); 

3. The page is getting refreshed before the element gets clickable.

In this case induce ExplicitWait i.e WebDriverWait as mentioned in point 4.

4. Element is present in the DOM but not clickable.

In this case induce ExplicitWait with ExpectedConditions set to elementToBeClickable for the element to be clickable:

WebDriverWait wait2 = new WebDriverWait(driver, 10);
wait2.until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(By.id("navigationPageButton")));

5. Element is present but having temporary Overlay.

In this case, induce ExplicitWait with ExpectedConditions set to invisibilityOfElementLocated for the Overlay to be invisible.

WebDriverWait wait3 = new WebDriverWait(driver, 10);
wait3.until(ExpectedConditions.invisibilityOfElementLocated(By.xpath("ele_to_inv")));

6. Element is present but having permanent Overlay.

Use JavascriptExecutor to send the click directly on the element.

WebElement ele = driver.findElement(By.xpath("element_xpath"));
JavascriptExecutor executor = (JavascriptExecutor)driver;
executor.executeScript("arguments[0].click();", ele);

java.net.ConnectException: localhost/127.0.0.1:8080 - Connection refused

Since you have not specified you are connected to a server from the device or emulator so I guess you are using your application in the emulator.

If you are referring your localhost on your system from the Android emulator then you have to use http://10.0.2.2:8080/ Because Android emulator runs in a Virtual Machine therefore here 127.0.0.1 or localhost will be emulator's own loopback address.

How to get current SIM card number in Android?

You have everything right, but the problem is with getLine1Number() function.

getLine1Number()- this method returns the phone number string for line 1, i.e the MSISDN for a GSM phone. Return null if it is unavailable.

this method works only for few cell phone but not all phones.

So, if you need to perform operations according to the sim(other than calling), then you should use getSimSerialNumber(). It is always unique, valid and it always exists.

What do raw.githubusercontent.com URLs represent?

There are two ways of looking at github content, the "raw" way and the "Web page" way.

raw.githubusercontent.com returns the raw content of files stored in github, so they can be downloaded simply to your computer. For example, if the page represents a ruby install script, then you will get a ruby install script that your ruby installation will understand.

If you instead download the file using the github.com link, you will actually be downloading a web page with buttons and comments and which displays your wanted script in the middle -- it's what you want to give to your web browser to get a nice page to look at, but for the computer, it is not a script that can be executed or code that can be compiled, but a web page to be displayed. That web page has a button called Raw that sends you to the corresponding content on raw.githubusercontent.com.

To see the content of raw.githubusercontent.com/${repo}/${branch}/${path} in the usual github interface:

  1. you replace raw.githubusercontent.com with plain github.com
  2. AND you insert "blob" between the repo name and the branch name.

In this case, the branch name is "master" (which is a very common branch name), so you replace /master/ with /blob/master/, and so

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install

becomes

https://github.com/Homebrew/install/blob/master/install

This is the reverse of finding a file on Github and clicking the Raw link.

Linux find file names with given string recursively

The find command will take long time because it scans real files in file system.

The quickest way is using locate command, which will give result immediately:

locate "John"

If the command is not found, you need to install mlocate package and run updatedb command first to prepare the search database for the first time.

How to set a Timer in Java?

[Android] if someone looking to implement timer on android using java.

you need use UI thread like this to perform operations.

Timer timer = new Timer();
timer.schedule(new TimerTask() {
           @Override
            public void run() {
                ActivityName.this.runOnUiThread(new Runnable(){
                    @Override
                      public void run() {
                       // do something
                      }        
                });
            }
        }, 2000));

Disable double-tap "zoom" option in browser on touch devices

This will prevent double tap zoom on elements in 'body' this can be changed to any other selector

$('body').bind('touchstart', function preventZoom(e){
            var t2 = e.timeStamp;
            var t1 = $(this).data('lastTouch') || t2;
            var dt = t2 - t1;
            var fingers = e.originalEvent.touches.length;
            $(this).data('lastTouch', t2);
            if (!dt || dt > 500 || fingers > 1){
                return; // not double-tap
            }
            e.preventDefault(); // double tap - prevent the zoom
            // also synthesize click events we just swallowed up
            $(e.target).trigger('click');

});

But this also prevented my click event from triggering when clicked multiple times so i had to bind a another event to trigger the events on multiple clicks

$('.selector').bind('touchstart click', preventZoom(e) {    
    e.stopPropagation(); //stops propagation
    if(e.type == "touchstart") {
      // Handle touchstart event.
    } else if(e.type == "click") {
      // Handle click event.
    }
});

On touchstart i added the code to prevent the zoom and trigger a click.

$('.selector').bind('touchstart, click', function preventZoom(e){
            e.stopPropagation(); //stops propagation
            if(e.type == "touchstart") {
                // Handle touchstart event.
                var t2 = e.timeStamp;
                var t1 = $(this).data('lastTouch') || t2;
                var dt = t2 - t1;
                var fingers = e.originalEvent.touches.length;
                $(this).data('lastTouch', t2);


                if (!dt || dt > 500 || fingers > 1){
                    return; // not double-tap
                }

                e.preventDefault(); // double tap - prevent the zoom

                $(e.target).trigger('click');

How to change target build on Android project?

  1. You can change your the Build Target for your project at any time:

    Right-click the project in the Package Explorer, select Properties, select Android and then check the desired Project Target.

  2. Edit the following elements in the AndroidManifest.xml file (it is in your project root directory)

    In this case, that will be:

    <uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="3" />
    <uses-sdk android:targetSdkVersion="8" />
    

    Save it

  3. Rebuild your project.

    Click the Project on the menu bar, select Clean...

  4. Now, run the project again.

    Right Click Project name, move on Run as, and select Android Application

By the way, reviewing Managing Projects from Eclipse with ADT will be helpful. Especially the part called Creating an Android Project.

What is the difference between "mvn deploy" to a local repo and "mvn install"?

"matt b" has it right, but to be specific, the "install" goal copies your built target to the local repository on your file system; useful for small changes across projects not currently meant for the full group.

The "deploy" goal uploads it to your shared repository for when your work is finished, and then can be shared by other people who require it for their project.

In your case, it seems that "install" is used to make the management of the deployment easier since CI's local repo is the shared repo. If CI was on another box, it would have to use the "deploy" goal.

Java 'file.delete()' Is not Deleting Specified File

The problem could also be due to any output streams that you have forgotten to close. In my case I was working with the file before the file being deleted. However at one place in the file operations, I had forgotten to close an output stream that I used to write to the file that was attempted to delete later.

Lambda expression to convert array/List of String to array/List of Integers

For List :

List<Integer> intList 
 = stringList.stream().map(Integer::valueOf).collect(Collectors.toList());

For Array :

int[] intArray = Arrays.stream(stringArray).mapToInt(Integer::valueOf).toArray();

Convert ASCII number to ASCII Character in C

If the number is stored in a string (which it would be if typed by a user), you can use atoi() to convert it to an integer.

An integer can be assigned directly to a character. A character is different mostly just because how it is interpreted and used.

char c = atoi("61");

How should I multiple insert multiple records?

When it are a lot of entries consider to use SqlBulkCopy. The performance is much faster than a series of single inserts.

Circular (or cyclic) imports in Python

I solved the problem the following way, and it works well without any error. Consider two files a.py and b.py.

I added this to a.py and it worked.

if __name__ == "__main__":
        main ()

a.py:

import b
y = 2
def main():
    print ("a out")
    print (b.x)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main ()

b.py:

import a
print ("b out")
x = 3 + a.y

The output I get is

>>> b out 
>>> a out 
>>> 5

Getting value from appsettings.json in .net core

I guess the simplest way is by DI. An example of reaching into Controller.

// StartUp.cs
public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
{
    ...
    // for get appsettings from anywhere
    services.AddSingleton(Configuration);
}

public class ContactUsController : Controller
{
    readonly IConfiguration _configuration;

    public ContactUsController(
        IConfiguration configuration)
    {
        _configuration = configuration;

        // sample:
        var apiKey = _configuration.GetValue<string>("SendGrid:CAAO");
        ...
    }
}

How to modify existing XML file with XmlDocument and XmlNode in C#

You need to do something like this:

// instantiate XmlDocument and load XML from file
XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument();
doc.Load(@"D:\test.xml");

// get a list of nodes - in this case, I'm selecting all <AID> nodes under
// the <GroupAIDs> node - change to suit your needs
XmlNodeList aNodes = doc.SelectNodes("/Equipment/DataCollections/GroupAIDs/AID");

// loop through all AID nodes
foreach (XmlNode aNode in aNodes)
{
   // grab the "id" attribute
   XmlAttribute idAttribute = aNode.Attributes["id"];

   // check if that attribute even exists...
   if (idAttribute != null)
   {
      // if yes - read its current value
      string currentValue = idAttribute.Value;

      // here, you can now decide what to do - for demo purposes,
      // I just set the ID value to a fixed value if it was empty before
      if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(currentValue))
      {
         idAttribute.Value = "515";
      }
   }
}

// save the XmlDocument back to disk
doc.Save(@"D:\test2.xml");

How do I pass named parameters with Invoke-Command?

My solution to this was to write the script block dynamically with [scriptblock]:Create:

# Or build a complex local script with MARKERS here, and do substitutions
# I was sending install scripts to the remote along with MSI packages
# ...for things like Backup and AV protection etc.

$p1 = "good stuff"; $p2 = "better stuff"; $p3 = "best stuff"; $etc = "!"
$script = [scriptblock]::Create("MyScriptOnRemoteServer.ps1 $p1 $p2 $etc")
#strings get interpolated/expanded while a direct scriptblock does not

# the $parms are now expanded in the script block itself
# ...so just call it:
$result = invoke-command $computer -script $script

Passing arguments was very frustrating, trying various methods, e.g.,
-arguments, $using:p1, etc. and this just worked as desired with no problems.

Since I control the contents and variable expansion of the string which creates the [scriptblock] (or script file) this way, there is no real issue with the "invoke-command" incantation.

(It shouldn't be that hard. :) )

Get Return Value from Stored procedure in asp.net

2 things.

  • The query has to complete on sql server before the return value is sent.

  • The results have to be captured and then finish executing before the return value gets to the object.

In English, finish the work and then retrieve the value.

this will not work:

                cmm.ExecuteReader();
                int i = (int) cmm.Parameters["@RETURN_VALUE"].Value;

This will work:

                        SqlDataReader reader = cmm.ExecuteReader();
                        reader.Close();

                        foreach (SqlParameter prm in cmd.Parameters)
                        {
                           Debug.WriteLine("");
                           Debug.WriteLine("Name " + prm.ParameterName);
                           Debug.WriteLine("Type " + prm.SqlDbType.ToString());
                           Debug.WriteLine("Size " + prm.Size.ToString());
                           Debug.WriteLine("Direction " + prm.Direction.ToString());
                           Debug.WriteLine("Value " + prm.Value);

                        }

if you are not sure check the value of the parameter before during and after the results have been processed by the reader.

How to avoid precompiled headers

Right click project solution

Properties -> Configuration Properties -> C/C++ -> Precompiled Headers

  1. Click on "Precompiled Headers" change to "Not Using Precompiled Headers".

  2. Erase the "pch.h"/"stdafx.h" field in "Precompiled Header File" for the EOF error at the end of the build for the project.

  3. Then you can feel free to delete the pch./stdafx. files in your project

XMLHttpRequest cannot load an URL with jQuery

You can't do a XMLHttpRequest crossdomain, the only "option" would be a technique called JSONP, which comes down to this:

To start request: Add a new <script> tag with the remote url, and then make sure that remote url returns a valid javascript file that calls your callback function. Some services support this (and let you name your callback in a GET parameters).

The other easy way out, would be to create a "proxy" on your local server, which gets the remote request and then just "forwards" it back to your javascript.

edit/addition:

I see jQuery has built-in support for JSONP, by checking if the URL contains "callback=?" (where jQuery will replace ? with the actual callback method). But you'd still need to process that on the remote server to generate a valid response.

What's the most efficient way to erase duplicates and sort a vector?

void removeDuplicates(std::vector<int>& arr) {
    for (int i = 0; i < arr.size(); i++)
    {
        for (int j = i + 1; j < arr.size(); j++)
        {
            if (arr[i] > arr[j])
            {
                int temp = arr[i];
                arr[i] = arr[j];
                arr[j] = temp;
            }
        }
    }
    std::vector<int> y;
    int x = arr[0];
    int i = 0;
    while (i < arr.size())
    {
        if (x != arr[i])
        {
            y.push_back(x);
            x = arr[i];
        }
        i++;
        if (i == arr.size())
            y.push_back(arr[i - 1]);
    }
    arr = y;
}

How to convert const char* to char* in C?

You can cast it by doing (char *)Identifier_Of_Const_char

But as there is probabbly a reason that the api doesn't accept const cahr *, you should do this only, if you are sure, the function doesn't try to assign any value in range of your const char* which you casted to a non const one.

Should try...catch go inside or outside a loop?

The whole point of exceptions is to encourage the first style: letting the error handling be consolidated and handled once, not immediately at every possible error site.

How to upload (FTP) files to server in a bash script?

The ftp command isn't designed for scripts, so controlling it is awkward, and getting its exit status is even more awkward.

Curl is made to be scriptable, and also has the merit that you can easily switch to other protocols later by just modifying the URL. If you put your FTP credentials in your .netrc, you can simply do:

# Download file
curl --netrc --remote-name ftp://ftp.example.com/file.bin
# Upload file
curl --netrc --upload-file file.bin ftp://ftp.example.com/

If you must, you can specify username and password directly on the command line using --user username:password instead of --netrc.

What is the different between RESTful and RESTless

Any model which don't identify resource and the action associated with is restless. restless is not any term but a slang term to represent all other services that doesn't abide with the above definition. In restful model resource is identified by URL (NOUN) and the actions(VERBS) by the predefined methods in HTTP protocols i.e. GET, POST, PUT, DELETE etc.

Iterating through a JSON object

for iterating through JSON you can use this:

json_object = json.loads(json_file)
for element in json_object: 
    for value in json_object['Name_OF_YOUR_KEY/ELEMENT']:
        print(json_object['Name_OF_YOUR_KEY/ELEMENT']['INDEX_OF_VALUE']['VALUE'])

Why should we NOT use sys.setdefaultencoding("utf-8") in a py script?

As per the documentation: This allows you to switch from the default ASCII to other encodings such as UTF-8, which the Python runtime will use whenever it has to decode a string buffer to unicode.

This function is only available at Python start-up time, when Python scans the environment. It has to be called in a system-wide module, sitecustomize.py, After this module has been evaluated, the setdefaultencoding() function is removed from the sys module.

The only way to actually use it is with a reload hack that brings the attribute back.

Also, the use of sys.setdefaultencoding() has always been discouraged, and it has become a no-op in py3k. The encoding of py3k is hard-wired to "utf-8" and changing it raises an error.

I suggest some pointers for reading:

Remove commas from the string using JavaScript

This is the simplest way to do it.

let total = parseInt(('100,000.00'.replace(',',''))) + parseInt(('500,000.00'.replace(',','')))

What is the maximum length of a Push Notification alert text?

The real limits for the alert text are not documented anywhere. The only thing the documentation says is:

In iOS 8 and later, the maximum size allowed for a notification payload is 2 kilobytes; Apple Push Notification Service refuses any notification that exceeds this limit. (Prior to iOS 8 and in OS X, the maximum payload size is 256 bytes.)

This is what I could find doing some experiments.

  • Alerts: Prior to iOS 7, the alerts display limit was 107 characters. Bigger messages were truncated and you would get a "..." at the end of the displayed message. With iOS 7 the limit seems to be increased to 235 characters. If you go over 8 lines your message will also get truncated.
  • Banners: Banners get truncated around 62 characters or 2 lines.
  • Notification Center: The messages in the notification center get truncated around 110 characters or 4 lines.
  • Lock Screen: Same as a notification center.

Just as a reminder here is a very good note from the official documentation:

If necessary, iOS truncates your message so that it fits well in each notification delivery style; for best results, you shouldn’t truncate your message.

Selenium -- How to wait until page is completely loaded

yes stale element error is thrown when (taking your scenario) you have defined locator strategy to click on 'Add Item' first and then when you close the pop up the page gets refreshed hence the reference defined for 'Add Item' is lost in the memory so to overcome this you have to redefine the locator strategy for 'Add Item' again

understand it with a dummy code

// clicking on view details 
driver.findElement(By.id("")).click();
// closing the pop up 
driver.findElement(By.id("")).click();


// and when you try to click on Add Item
driver.findElement(By.id("")).click();
// you get stale element exception as reference to add item is lost 
// so to overcome this you have to re identify the locator strategy for add item 
// Please note : this is one of the way to overcome stale element exception 

// Step 1 please add a universal wait in your script like below 
driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(20, TimeUnit.SECONDS); // just after you have initiated browser

jQuery-UI datepicker default date

Seeing that:

Set the date to highlight on first opening if the field is blank. Specify either an actual date via a Date object or as a string in the current dateFormat, or a number of days from today (e.g. +7) or a string of values and periods ('y' for years, 'm' for months, 'w' for weeks, 'd' for days, e.g. '+1m +7d'), or null for today.

If the current dateFormat is not recognized, you can still use the Date object using new Date(year, month, day)

In your example, this should work (I didn't test it) :

<script type="text/javascript">
$(function() {               
    $("#birthdate" ).datepicker({
        changeMonth: true,
        changeYear: true,
        yearRange: '1920:2010',
        dateFormat : 'dd-mm-yy',
        defaultDate: new Date(1985,01,01)
    });
});
</script>

MySQL - Using If Then Else in MySQL UPDATE or SELECT Queries

Whilst you certainly can use MySQL's IF() control flow function as demonstrated by dbemerlin's answer, I suspect it might be a little clearer to the reader (i.e. yourself, and any future developers who might pick up your code in the future) to use a CASE expression instead:

UPDATE Table
SET    A = CASE
         WHEN A > 0 AND A < 1 THEN 1
         WHEN A > 1 AND A < 2 THEN 2
         ELSE A
       END
WHERE  A IS NOT NULL

Of course, in this specific example it's a little wasteful to set A to itself in the ELSE clause—better entirely to filter such conditions from the UPDATE, via the WHERE clause:

UPDATE Table
SET    A = CASE
         WHEN A > 0 AND A < 1 THEN 1
         WHEN A > 1 AND A < 2 THEN 2
       END
WHERE  (A > 0 AND A < 1) OR (A > 1 AND A < 2)

(The inequalities entail A IS NOT NULL).

Or, if you want the intervals to be closed rather than open (note that this would set values of 0 to 1—if that is undesirable, one could explicitly filter such cases in the WHERE clause, or else add a higher precedence WHEN condition):

UPDATE Table
SET    A = CASE
         WHEN A BETWEEN 0 AND 1 THEN 1
         WHEN A BETWEEN 1 AND 2 THEN 2
       END
WHERE  A BETWEEN 0 AND 2

Though, as dbmerlin also pointed out, for this specific situation you could consider using CEIL() instead:

UPDATE Table SET A = CEIL(A) WHERE A BETWEEN 0 AND 2

Symbolicating iPhone App Crash Reports

Steps to analyze crash report from apple:

  1. Copy the release .app file which was pushed to the appstore, the .dSYM file that was created at the time of release and the crash report receive from APPLE into a FOLDER.

  2. OPEN terminal application and go to the folder created above (using cd command)

  3. Run atos -arch armv7 -o APPNAME.app/APPNAME MEMORY_LOCATION_OF_CRASH. The memory location should be the one at which the app crashed as per the report.

Ex: atos -arch armv7 -o 'APPNAME.app'/'APPNAME' 0x0003b508

This would show you the exact line, method name which resulted in crash.

Ex: [classname functionName:]; -510

Symbolicating IPA

if we use IPA for symbolicating - just rename the extention .ipa with .zip , extract it then we can get a Payload Folder which contain app. In this case we don't need .dSYM file.

Note

This can only work if the app binary does not have symbols stripped. By default release builds stripped the symbols. We can change it in project build settings "Strip Debug Symbols During Copy" to NO.

How to append to a file in Node?

If you want an easy and stress-free way to write logs line by line in a file, then I recommend fs-extra:

const os = require('os');
const fs = require('fs-extra');

const file = 'logfile.txt';
const options = {flag: 'a'};

async function writeToFile(text) {
  await fs.outputFile(file, `${text}${os.EOL}`, options);
}

writeToFile('First line');
writeToFile('Second line');
writeToFile('Third line');
writeToFile('Fourth line');
writeToFile('Fifth line');

Tested with Node v8.9.4.

INNER JOIN vs LEFT JOIN performance in SQL Server

I found something interesting in SQL server when checking if inner joins are faster than left joins.

If you dont include the items of the left joined table, in the select statement, the left join will be faster than the same query with inner join.

If you do include the left joined table in the select statement, the inner join with the same query was equal or faster than the left join.

Best way to get whole number part of a Decimal number

By the way guys, (int)Decimal.MaxValue will overflow. You can't get the "int" part of a decimal because the decimal is too friggen big to put in the int box. Just checked... its even too big for a long (Int64).

If you want the bit of a Decimal value to the LEFT of the dot, you need to do this:

Math.Truncate(number)

and return the value as... A DECIMAL or a DOUBLE.

edit: Truncate is definitely the correct function!

What are the differences between .so and .dylib on osx?

The difference between .dylib and .so on mac os x is how they are compiled. For .so files you use -shared and for .dylib you use -dynamiclib. Both .so and .dylib are interchangeable as dynamic library files and either have a type as DYLIB or BUNDLE. Heres the readout for different files showing this.

libtriangle.dylib:
Mach header
      magic cputype cpusubtype  caps    filetype ncmds sizeofcmds      flags
MH_MAGIC_64  X86_64        ALL  0x00       DYLIB    17       1368   NOUNDEFS DYLDLINK TWOLEVEL NO_REEXPORTED_DYLIBS



libtriangle.so:
Mach header
      magic cputype cpusubtype  caps    filetype ncmds sizeofcmds      flags
MH_MAGIC_64  X86_64        ALL  0x00       DYLIB    17       1256   NOUNDEFS DYLDLINK TWOLEVEL NO_REEXPORTED_DYLIBS

triangle.so:
Mach header
      magic cputype cpusubtype  caps    filetype ncmds sizeofcmds      flags
MH_MAGIC_64  X86_64        ALL  0x00      BUNDLE    16       1696   NOUNDEFS DYLDLINK TWOLEVEL

The reason the two are equivalent on Mac OS X is for backwards compatibility with other UNIX OS programs that compile to the .so file type.

Compilation notes: whether you compile a .so file or a .dylib file you need to insert the correct path into the dynamic library during the linking step. You do this by adding -install_name and the file path to the linking command. If you dont do this you will run into the problem seen in this post: Mac Dynamic Library Craziness (May be Fortran Only).

jquery change button color onclick

You have to include the jquery framework in your document head from a cdn for example:

<script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.9.1/jquery.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

Then you have to include a own script for example:

(function( $ ) {

  $(document).ready(function(){
      $('input').click(function() {
          $(this).css('background-color', 'green');
      }
  });


  $(window).load(function() { 
  });

})( jQuery );

This part is a mapping of the $ to jQuery, so actually it is jQuery('selector').function();

(function( $ ) {

})( jQuery );

Here you can find die api of jquery where all functions are listed with examples and explanation: http://api.jquery.com/

How can I disable a button on a jQuery UI dialog?

You can also use the not now documented disabled attribute:

$("#element").dialog({
    buttons: [
    {
        text: "Confirm",
        disabled: true,
        id: "my-button-1"
    }, 
    {
        text: "Cancel",
        id: "my-button-2",
        click: function(){            
               $(this).dialog("close");
        }  

    }]
});

To enable after dialog has opened, use:

$("#my-button-1").attr('disabled', false);

Android Drawing Separator/Divider Line in Layout?

To complete Camille Sévigny answer you can additionally define your own line shape for example to custom the line color.

Define an xml shape in drawable directory. line_horizontal.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto" android:shape="line">
    <stroke android:width="2dp" android:color="@android:color/holo_blue_dark" />
    <size android:width="5dp" />
</shape>

Use this line in your layout with the wished attributes:

    <ImageView
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:paddingBottom="2dp"
        android:paddingLeft="5dp"
        android:paddingRight="5dp"
        android:paddingTop="2dp"
        android:src="@drawable/line_horizontal" />

How can I create an object based on an interface file definition in TypeScript?

Here is another approach:

You can simply create an ESLint friendly object like this

const modal: IModal = {} as IModal;

Or a default instance based on the interface and with sensible defaults, if any

const defaultModal: IModal = {
    content: "",
    form: "",
    href: "",
    $form: {} as JQuery,
    $message: {} as JQuery,
    $modal: {} as JQuery,
    $submits: {} as JQuery
};

Then variations of the default instance simply by overriding some properties

const confirmationModal: IModal = {
    ...defaultModal,     // all properties/values from defaultModal
    form: "confirmForm"  // override form only
}

MongoDB: Combine data from multiple collections into one..how?

use multiple $lookup for multiple collections in aggregation

query:

db.getCollection('servicelocations').aggregate([
  {
    $match: {
      serviceLocationId: {
        $in: ["36728"]
      }
    }
  },
  {
    $lookup: {
      from: "orders",
      localField: "serviceLocationId",
      foreignField: "serviceLocationId",
      as: "orders"
    }
  },
  {
    $lookup: {
      from: "timewindowtypes",
      localField: "timeWindow.timeWindowTypeId",
      foreignField: "timeWindowTypeId",
      as: "timeWindow"
    }
  },
  {
    $lookup: {
      from: "servicetimetypes",
      localField: "serviceTimeTypeId",
      foreignField: "serviceTimeTypeId",
      as: "serviceTime"
    }
  },
  {
    $unwind: "$orders"
  },
  {
    $unwind: "$serviceTime"
  },
  {
    $limit: 14
  }
])

result:

Lodash .clone and .cloneDeep behaviors

Thanks to Gruff Bunny and Louis' comments, I found the source of the issue.

As I use Backbone.js too, I loaded a special build of Lodash compatible with Backbone and Underscore that disables some features. In this example:

var clone = _.clone(data, true);

data[1].values.d = 'x';

I just replaced the Underscore build with the Normal build in my Backbone application and the application is still working. So I can now use the Lodash .clone with the expected behaviour.

Edit 2018: the Underscore build doesn't seem to exist anymore. If you are reading this in 2018, you could be interested by this documentation (Backbone and Lodash).

How to remove border from specific PrimeFaces p:panelGrid?

for me only the following code works

.noBorder tr {
border-width: 0 ;
}
.ui-panelgrid td{
    border-width: 0
}

<p:panelGrid id="userFormFields" columns="2" styleClass="noBorder" >
</p:panelGrid>

Protect .NET code from reverse engineering?

Here's one idea: you could have a server hosted by your company that all instances of your software need to connect to. Simply having them connect and verify a registration key is not sufficient -- they'll just remove the check. In addition to the key check, you need to also have the server perform some vital task that the client can't perform itself, so it's impossible to remove. This of course would probably mean a lot of heavy processing on the part of your server, but it would make your software difficult to steal, and assuming you have a good key scheme (check ownership, etc), the keys will also be difficult to steal. This is probably more invasive than you want, since it will require your users to be connected to the internet to use your software.

jQuery / Javascript code check, if not undefined

I like this:

if (wlocation !== undefined)

But if you prefer the second way wouldn't be as you posted. It would be:

if (typeof wlocation  !== "undefined")

How to pass all arguments passed to my bash script to a function of mine?

abc "$@"

$@ represents all the parameters given to your bash script.

Object comparison in JavaScript

Unfortunately there is no perfect way, unless you use _proto_ recursively and access all non-enumerable properties, but this works in Firefox only.

So the best I can do is to guess usage scenarios.


1) Fast and limited.

Works when you have simple JSON-style objects without methods and DOM nodes inside:

 JSON.stringify(obj1) === JSON.stringify(obj2) 

The ORDER of the properties IS IMPORTANT, so this method will return false for following objects:

 x = {a: 1, b: 2};
 y = {b: 2, a: 1};

2) Slow and more generic.

Compares objects without digging into prototypes, then compares properties' projections recursively, and also compares constructors.

This is almost correct algorithm:

function deepCompare () {
  var i, l, leftChain, rightChain;

  function compare2Objects (x, y) {
    var p;

    // remember that NaN === NaN returns false

Javascript how to parse JSON array

"Sencha way" for interacting with server data is setting up an Ext.data.Store proxied by a Ext.data.proxy.Proxy (in this case Ext.data.proxy.Ajax) furnished with a Ext.data.reader.Json (for JSON-encoded data, there are other readers available as well). For writing data back to the server there's a Ext.data.writer.Writers of several kinds.

Here's an example of a setup like that:

    var store = Ext.create('Ext.data.Store', {
        fields: [
            'counter_name',
            'counter_type',
            'counter_unit'
        ],

        proxy: {
            type: 'ajax',
            url: 'data1.json',

            reader: {
                type: 'json',
                idProperty: 'counter_name',
                rootProperty: 'counters'
            }
        }
    });

data1.json in this example (also available in this fiddle) contains your data verbatim. idProperty: 'counter_name' is probably optional in this case but usually points at primary key attribute. rootProperty: 'counters' specifies which property contains array of data items.

With a store setup this way you can re-read data from the server by calling store.load(). You can also wire the store to any Sencha Touch appropriate UI components like grids, lists or forms.

How to get different colored lines for different plots in a single figure?

TL;DR No, it can't be done automatically. Yes, it is possible.

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
my_colors = plt.rcParams['axes.prop_cycle']() # <<< note that we CALL the prop_cycle
fig, axes = plt.subplots(2,3)
for ax in axes.flatten(): ax.plot((0,1), (0,1), **next(my_colors))

enter image description here Each plot (axes) in a figure (figure) has its own cycle of colors — if you don't force a different color for each plot, all the plots share the same order of colors but, if we stretch a bit what "automatically" means, it can be done.


The OP wrote

[...] I have to identify each plot with a different color which should be automatically generated by [Matplotlib].

But... Matplotlib automatically generates different colors for each different curve

In [10]: import numpy as np
    ...: import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

In [11]: plt.plot((0,1), (0,1), (1,2), (1,0));
Out[11]:

enter image description here

So why the OP request? If we continue to read, we have

Can you please give me a method to put different colors for different plots in the same figure?

and it make sense, because each plot (each axes in Matplotlib's parlance) has its own color_cycle (or rather, in 2018, its prop_cycle) and each plot (axes) reuses the same colors in the same order.

In [12]: fig, axes = plt.subplots(2,3)

In [13]: for ax in axes.flatten():
    ...:     ax.plot((0,1), (0,1))

enter image description here

If this is the meaning of the original question, one possibility is to explicitly name a different color for each plot.

If the plots (as it often happens) are generated in a loop we must have an additional loop variable to override the color automatically chosen by Matplotlib.

In [14]: fig, axes = plt.subplots(2,3)

In [15]: for ax, short_color_name in zip(axes.flatten(), 'brgkyc'):
    ...:     ax.plot((0,1), (0,1), short_color_name)

enter image description here

Another possibility is to instantiate a cycler object

from cycler import cycler
my_cycler = cycler('color', ['k', 'r']) * cycler('linewidth', [1., 1.5, 2.])
actual_cycler = my_cycler()

fig, axes = plt.subplots(2,3)
for ax in axes.flat:
    ax.plot((0,1), (0,1), **next(actual_cycler))

enter image description here

Note that type(my_cycler) is cycler.Cycler but type(actual_cycler) is itertools.cycle.

Find value in an array

This answer is for everyone that realizes the accepted answer does not address the question as it currently written.

The question asks how to find a value in an array. The accepted answer shows how to check whether a value exists in an array.

There is already an example using index, so I am providing an example using the select method.

1.9.3-p327 :012 > x = [1,2,3,4,5]
  => [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] 
1.9.3-p327 :013 > x.select {|y| y == 1}
  => [1]

Create a tag in a GitHub repository

You can create tags for GitHub by either using:

  • the Git command line, or
  • GitHub's web interface.

Creating tags from the command line

To create a tag on your current branch, run this:

git tag <tagname>

If you want to include a description with your tag, add -a to create an annotated tag:

git tag <tagname> -a

This will create a local tag with the current state of the branch you are on. When pushing to your remote repo, tags are NOT included by default. You will need to explicitly say that you want to push your tags to your remote repo:

git push origin --tags

From the official Linux Kernel Git documentation for git push:

--tags

All refs under refs/tags are pushed, in addition to refspecs explicitly listed on the command line.

Or if you just want to push a single tag:

git push origin <tag>

See also my answer to How do you push a tag to a remote repository using Git? for more details about that syntax above.

Creating tags through GitHub's web interface

You can find GitHub's instructions for this at their Creating Releases help page. Here is a summary:

  1. Click the releases link on our repository page,

    Screenshot 1

  2. Click on Create a new release or Draft a new release,

    Screenshot 2

  3. Fill out the form fields, then click Publish release at the bottom,

    Screenshot 3 Screenshot 4

  4. After you create your tag on GitHub, you might want to fetch it into your local repository too:

    git fetch
    

Now next time, you may want to create one more tag within the same release from website. For that follow these steps:

Go to release tab

  1. Click on edit button for the release

  2. Provide name of the new tag ABC_DEF_V_5_3_T_2 and hit tab

  3. After hitting tab, UI will show this message: Excellent! This tag will be created from the target when you publish this release. Also UI will provide an option to select the branch/commit

  4. Select branch or commit

  5. Check "This is a pre-release" checkbox for qa tag and uncheck it if the tag is created for Prod tag.

  6. After that click on "Update Release"

  7. This will create a new Tag within the existing Release.

How to create a responsive image that also scales up in Bootstrap 3

Bootstrap's responsive image class sets max-width to 100%. This limits its size, but does not force it to stretch to fill parent elements larger than the image itself. You'd have to use the width attribute to force upscaling.

How to execute logic on Optional if not present?

There is an .orElseRun method, but it is called .orElseGet.

The main problem with your pseudocode is that .isPresent doesn't return an Optional<>. But .map returns an Optional<> which has the orElseRun method.

If you really want to do this in one statement this is possible:

public Optional<Obj> getObjectFromDB() {
    return dao.find()
        .map( obj -> { 
            obj.setAvailable(true);
            return Optional.of(obj); 
         })
        .orElseGet( () -> {
            logger.fatal("Object not available"); 
            return Optional.empty();
    });
}

But this is even clunkier than what you had before.

What is a callback?

If you referring to ASP.Net callbacks:

In the default model for ASP.NET Web pages, the user interacts with a page and clicks a button or performs some other action that results in a postback. The page and its controls are re-created, the page code runs on the server, and a new version of the page is rendered to the browser. However, in some situations, it is useful to run server code from the client without performing a postback. If the client script in the page is maintaining some state information (for example, local variable values), posting the page and getting a new copy of it destroys that state. Additionally, page postbacks introduce processing overhead that can decrease performance and force the user to wait for the page to be processed and re-created.

To avoid losing client state and not incur the processing overhead of a server roundtrip, you can code an ASP.NET Web page so that it can perform client callbacks. In a client callback, a client-script function sends a request to an ASP.NET Web page. The Web page runs a modified version of its normal life cycle. The page is initiated and its controls and other members are created, and then a specially marked method is invoked. The method performs the processing that you have coded and then returns a value to the browser that can be read by another client script function. Throughout this process, the page is live in the browser.

Source: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms178208.aspx

If you are referring to callbacks in code:

Callbacks are often delegates to methods that are called when the specific operation has completed or performs a sub-action. You'll often find them in asynchronous operations. It is a programming principle that you can find in almost every coding language.

How to check visibility of software keyboard in Android?

NEW ANSWER added Jan 25th 2012

Since writing the below answer, someone clued me in to the existence of ViewTreeObserver and friends, APIs which have been lurking in the SDK since version 1.

Rather than requiring a custom Layout type, a much simpler solution is to give your activity's root view a known ID, say @+id/activityRoot, hook a GlobalLayoutListener into the ViewTreeObserver, and from there calculate the size diff between your activity's view root and the window size:

final View activityRootView = findViewById(R.id.activityRoot);
activityRootView.getViewTreeObserver().addOnGlobalLayoutListener(new OnGlobalLayoutListener() {
    @Override
    public void onGlobalLayout() {
        int heightDiff = activityRootView.getRootView().getHeight() - activityRootView.getHeight();
        if (heightDiff > dpToPx(this, 200)) { // if more than 200 dp, it's probably a keyboard...
            // ... do something here
        }
     }
});

Using a utility such as:

public static float dpToPx(Context context, float valueInDp) {
    DisplayMetrics metrics = context.getResources().getDisplayMetrics();
    return TypedValue.applyDimension(TypedValue.COMPLEX_UNIT_DIP, valueInDp, metrics);
}

Easy!

Note: Your application must set this flag in Android Manifest android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize" otherwise above solution will not work.

ORIGINAL ANSWER

Yes it's possible, but it's far harder than it ought to be.

If I need to care about when the keyboard appears and disappears (which is quite often) then what I do is customize my top-level layout class into one which overrides onMeasure(). The basic logic is that if the layout finds itself filling significantly less than the total area of the window, then a soft keyboard is probably showing.

import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Context;
import android.graphics.Rect;
import android.util.AttributeSet;
import android.widget.LinearLayout;

/*
 * LinearLayoutThatDetectsSoftKeyboard - a variant of LinearLayout that can detect when 
 * the soft keyboard is shown and hidden (something Android can't tell you, weirdly). 
 */

public class LinearLayoutThatDetectsSoftKeyboard extends LinearLayout {

    public LinearLayoutThatDetectsSoftKeyboard(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
        super(context, attrs);
    }

    public interface Listener {
        public void onSoftKeyboardShown(boolean isShowing);
    }
    private Listener listener;
    public void setListener(Listener listener) {
        this.listener = listener;
    }

    @Override
    protected void onMeasure(int widthMeasureSpec, int heightMeasureSpec) {
        int height = MeasureSpec.getSize(heightMeasureSpec);
        Activity activity = (Activity)getContext();
        Rect rect = new Rect();
        activity.getWindow().getDecorView().getWindowVisibleDisplayFrame(rect);
        int statusBarHeight = rect.top;
        int screenHeight = activity.getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay().getHeight();
        int diff = (screenHeight - statusBarHeight) - height;
        if (listener != null) {
            listener.onSoftKeyboardShown(diff>128); // assume all soft keyboards are at least 128 pixels high
        }
        super.onMeasure(widthMeasureSpec, heightMeasureSpec);       
    }

    }

Then in your Activity class...

public class MyActivity extends Activity implements LinearLayoutThatDetectsSoftKeyboard.Listener {

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        ...
        LinearLayoutThatDetectsSoftKeyboard mainLayout = (LinearLayoutThatDetectsSoftKeyboard)findViewById(R.id.main);
        mainLayout.setListener(this);
        ...
    }


    @Override
    public void onSoftKeyboardShown(boolean isShowing) {
        // do whatever you need to do here
    }

    ...
}

Load a Bootstrap popover content with AJAX. Is this possible?

            html:true,
            placement:'left',
            title:$(i).html(),
            content:data

    final String cookieName = "my_cool_cookie";
    final String cookieValue = "my cool value here !";  // you could assign it some encoded value
    final Boolean useSecureCookie = false;
    final int expiryTime = 60 * 60 * 24;  // 24h in seconds
    final String cookiePath = "/";

    Cookie cookie = new Cookie(cookieName, cookieValue);

    cookie.setSecure(useSecureCookie);  // determines whether the cookie should only be sent using a secure protocol, such as HTTPS or SSL

    cookie.setMaxAge(expiryTime);  // A negative value means that the cookie is not stored persistently and will be deleted when the Web browser exits. A zero value causes the cookie to be deleted.

    cookie.setPath(cookiePath);  // The cookie is visible to all the pages in the directory you specify, and all the pages in that directory's subdirectories

    response.addCookie(cookie);
}

Trying to get property of non-object MySQLi result

Just thought I would expand on this a bit.

If you perform a MYSQLI SELECT query that returns 0 results, it returns FALSE.

However, if you get this error and you have written your own MYSQLI Query function, then you can also get this error if the query you are running is not a select but an update. An update query will return either TRUE or FALSE. So if you just assume that any non false result will have records returned, then you will trip up when you run an update or anything other than select.

The easiest solution, once you have checked that its not false, is to first check that the result of the query is an object.

    $sqlResult = $connection->query($sql);
    if (!$sqlResult)
    {
     ... 
    }
    else if (is_object($sqlResult))
    {
        $sqlRowCount = $sqlResult->num_rows;
    }
    else
    {
        $sqlRowCount = 0;
    }

C# HttpClient 4.5 multipart/form-data upload

Here is another example on how to use HttpClient to upload a multipart/form-data.

It uploads a file to a REST API and includes the file itself (e.g. a JPG) and additional API parameters. The file is directly uploaded from local disk via FileStream.

See here for the full example including additional API specific logic.

public static async Task UploadFileAsync(string token, string path, string channels)
{
    // we need to send a request with multipart/form-data
    var multiForm = new MultipartFormDataContent();

    // add API method parameters
    multiForm.Add(new StringContent(token), "token");
    multiForm.Add(new StringContent(channels), "channels");

    // add file and directly upload it
    FileStream fs = File.OpenRead(path);
    multiForm.Add(new StreamContent(fs), "file", Path.GetFileName(path));

    // send request to API
    var url = "https://slack.com/api/files.upload";
    var response = await client.PostAsync(url, multiForm);
}

How to copy file from one location to another location?

You can use this (or any variant):

Files.copy(src, dst, StandardCopyOption.REPLACE_EXISTING);

Also, I'd recommend using File.separator or / instead of \\ to make it compliant across multiple OS, question/answer on this available here.

Since you're not sure how to temporarily store files, take a look at ArrayList:

List<File> files = new ArrayList();
files.add(foundFile);

To move a List of files into a single directory:

List<File> files = ...;
String path = "C:/destination/";
for(File file : files) {
    Files.copy(file.toPath(),
        (new File(path + file.getName())).toPath(),
        StandardCopyOption.REPLACE_EXISTING);
}

Disabling of EditText in Android

Today I still use editable="false", but also with focusable="false".

I think the case we need to make an EditText un-editable, is because we want to keep its EditText style (with that underline, with hint, etc), but it accepts other inputs instead of text. For example a dropdown list.

In such use case, we need to have the EditText clickable (thus enabled="false" is not suitable). Setting focusable="false" do this trick, however, I can still long hold on the EditText and paste my own text onto it from clipboard. Depending on your code and handling this can even crash your app.

So I also used editable="false" and now everything is great, except the warning.

Makefiles with source files in different directories

I was looking for something like this and after some tries and falls i create my own makefile, I know that's not the "idiomatic way" but it's a begining to understand make and this works for me, maybe you could try in your project.

S_OBJ=$(patsubst %.cpp, %.o, $(CPP_FILES))

How to Correctly Use Lists in R?

x = list(1, 2, 3, 4)
x2 = list(1:4)
all.equal(x,x2)

is not the same because 1:4 is the same as c(1,2,3,4). If you want them to be the same then:

x = list(c(1,2,3,4))
x2 = list(1:4)
all.equal(x,x2)

Use of alloc init instead of new

If new does the job for you, then it will make your code modestly smaller as well. If you would otherwise call [[SomeClass alloc] init] in many different places in your code, you will create a Hot Spot in new's implementation - that is, in the objc runtime - that will reduce the number of your cache misses.

In my understanding, if you need to use a custom initializer use [[SomeClass alloc] initCustom].

If you don't, use [SomeClass new].

AttributeError: 'DataFrame' object has no attribute

value_counts work only for series. It won't work for entire DataFrame. Try selecting only one column and using this attribute. For example:

df['accepted'].value_counts()

It also won't work if you have duplicate columns. This is because when you select a particular column, it will also represent the duplicate column and will return dataframe instead of series. At that time remove duplicate column by using

df = df.loc[:,~df.columns.duplicated()]

ASP.Net MVC: Calling a method from a view

why You don't use Ajax to

its simple and does not require page refresh and has success and error callbacks

take look at my samlpe

<a id="ResendVerificationCode" >@Resource_en.ResendVerificationCode</a>

and in JQuery

 $("#ResendVerificationCode").on("click", function() {
                getUserbyPhoneIfNotRegisterd($("#phone").val());
 });

and this is my ajax which call my controller and my controller and return object from database

function getUserbyPhoneIfNotRegisterd(userphone) {

              $.ajax({
                    type: "GET",
                    dataType: "Json",
                    url: '@Url.Action("GetUserByPhone", "User")' + '?phone=' + userphone,
                    async: false,
                    success: function(data) {
                        if (data == null || data.data == null) {

How to check whether java is installed on the computer

After installing Java, set the path in environmental variables and then open the command prompt and type java -version. If installed properly, it'll list the java version, jre version, etc.

You can additionally check by trying the javac command too. If it displays some data, you've your java installed with the proper path set, else it'll that javac is an invalid command.

Setting HttpContext.Current.Session in a unit test

Never mock.. never! The solution is pretty simple. Why fake such a beautiful creation like HttpContext?

Push the session down! (Just this line is enough for most of us to understand but explained in detail below)

(string)HttpContext.Current.Session["CustomerId"]; is how we access it now. Change this to

_customObject.SessionProperty("CustomerId")

When called from test, _customObject uses alternative store (DB or cloud key value[ http://www.kvstore.io/] )

But when called from the real application, _customObject uses Session.

how is this done? well... Dependency Injection!

So test can set the session(underground) and then call the application method as if it knows nothing about the session. Then test secretly checks if the application code correctly updated the session. Or if the application behaves based on the session value set by the test.

Actually, we did end up mocking even though I said: "never mock". Becuase we couldn't help but slip to the next rule, "mock where it hurts the least!". Mocking huge HttpContext or mocking a tiny session, which hurts the least? don't ask me where these rules came from. Let us just say common sense. Here is an interesting read on not mocking as unit test can kills us

Inserting a string into a list without getting split into characters

ls=['hello','world']
ls.append('python')
['hello', 'world', 'python']

or (use insert function where you can use index position in list)

ls.insert(0,'python')
print(ls)
['python', 'hello', 'world']

How to check if an integer is within a range?

I'm not able to comment (not enough reputation) so I'll amend Luis Rosety's answer here:

function between($n, $a, $b) {
    return ($n-$a)*($n-$b) <= 0;
}

This function works also in cases where n == a or n == b.

Proof: Let n belong to range [a,b], where [a,b] is a subset of real numbers.

Now a <= n <= b. Then n-a >= 0 and n-b <= 0. That means that (n-a)*(n-b) <= 0.

Case b <= n <= a works similarly.

Is background-color:none valid CSS?

CSS Level 3 specifies the unset property value. From MDN:

The unset CSS keyword is the combination of the initial and inherit keywords. Like these two other CSS-wide keywords, it can be applied to any CSS property, including the CSS shorthand all. This keyword resets the property to its inherited value if it inherits from its parent or to its initial value if not. In other words, it behaves like the inherit keyword in the first case and like the initial keyword in the second case.

Unfortunately this value is currently not supported in all browsers, including IE, Safari and Opera. I suggest using transparent for the time being.

Android: where are downloaded files saved?

Most devices have some form of emulated storage. if they support sd cards they are usually mounted to /sdcard (or some variation of that name) which is usually symlinked to to a directory in /storage like /storage/sdcard0 or /storage/0 sometimes the emulated storage is mounted to /sdcard and the actual path is something like /storage/emulated/legacy. You should be able to use to get the downloads directory. You are best off using the api calls to get directories. Environment.getExternalStoragePublicDirectory(Environment.DIRECTORY_DOWNLOADS);

Since the filesystems and sdcard support varies among devices.

see similar question for more info how to access downloads folder in android?

Usually the DownloadManager handles downloads and the files are then accessed by requesting the file's uri fromthe download manager using a file id to get where file was places which would usually be somewhere in the sdcard/ real or emulated since apps can only read data from certain places on the filesystem outside of their data directory like the sdcard

Android: resizing imageview in XML

Unable to evaluate expression because the code is optimized or a native frame is on top of the call stack

This problem may be a result when you have a razor page in mvc with a model that has some validation rules. When you post from a form and you forget to display validation errors on some field, then this message might come up. Speculation: this could be if the method you are posting to is different and used by other sources or resides in a different place than the method serving the original request.

So because it's different, it can't return to the original page to display or handle the errors because the excecution and model state is not the same (something like that).

It can be slightly difficult to discover, but easy mistake to do. Make sure your recieving method actually validates all possible ways to post to it.

for instance, even if you have serverside validation that actually makes it impossible to write in the form a string that is bigger than the max allowed by your validation, there could be other ways and sources that post to the recieving method.

Validate fields after user has left a field

To pick up further on the given answers, you can simplify input tagging by using CSS3 pseudo-classes and only marking visited fields with a class to delay displaying validation errors until the user lost focus on the field:

(Example requires jQuery)

JavaScript

module = angular.module('app.directives', []);
module.directive('lateValidateForm', function () {
    return {
        restrict: 'AC',
        link: function (scope, element, attrs) {
            $inputs = element.find('input, select, textarea');

            $inputs.on('blur', function () {
                $(this).addClass('has-visited');
            });

            element.on('submit', function () {
                $inputs.addClass('has-visited');
            });
        }
    };
});

CSS

input.has-visited:not(:focus):required:invalid,
textarea.has-visited:not(:focus):required:invalid,
select.has-visited:not(:focus):required:invalid {
  color: #b94a48;
  border-color: #ee5f5b;
}

HTML

<form late-validate-form name="userForm">
  <input type="email" name="email" required />
</form>

What is the difference between AF_INET and PF_INET in socket programming?

AF_INET = Address Format, Internet = IP Addresses

PF_INET = Packet Format, Internet = IP, TCP/IP or UDP/IP

AF_INET is the address family that is used for the socket you're creating (in this case an Internet Protocol address). The Linux kernel, for example, supports 29 other address families such as UNIX sockets and IPX, and also communications with IRDA and Bluetooth (AF_IRDA and AF_BLUETOOTH, but it is doubtful you'll use these at such a low level).

For the most part sticking with AF_INET for socket programming over a network is the safest option.

Meaning, AF_INET refers to addresses from the internet, IP addresses specifically.

PF_INET refers to anything in the protocol, usually sockets/ports.

How do you do a deep copy of an object in .NET?

The best way is:

    public interface IDeepClonable<T> where T : class
    {
        T DeepClone();
    }

    public class MyObj : IDeepClonable<MyObj>
    {
        public MyObj Clone()
        {
            var myObj = new MyObj();
            myObj._field1 = _field1;//value type
            myObj._field2 = _field2;//value type
            myObj._field3 = _field3;//value type

            if (_child != null)
            {
                myObj._child = _child.DeepClone(); //reference type .DeepClone() that does the same
            }

            int len = _array.Length;
            myObj._array = new MyObj[len]; // array / collection
            for (int i = 0; i < len; i++)
            {
                myObj._array[i] = _array[i];
            }

            return myObj;
        }

        private bool _field1;
        public bool Field1
        {
            get { return _field1; }
            set { _field1 = value; }
        }

        private int _field2;
        public int Property2
        {
            get { return _field2; }
            set { _field2 = value; }
        }

        private string _field3;
        public string Property3
        {
            get { return _field3; }
            set { _field3 = value; }
        }

        private MyObj _child;
        private MyObj Child
        {
            get { return _child; }
            set { _child = value; }
        }

        private MyObj[] _array = new MyObj[4];
    }

Most common C# bitwise operations on enums

To test a bit you would do the following: (assuming flags is a 32 bit number)

Test Bit:

if((flags & 0x08) == 0x08)
(If bit 4 is set then its true) Toggle Back (1 - 0 or 0 - 1):
flags = flags ^ 0x08;
Reset Bit 4 to Zero:
flags = flags & 0xFFFFFF7F;

SVN commit command

Command-line SVN

You need to add your files to your working copy, before you commit your changes to the repository:

svn add <file|folder>

Afterwards:

svn commit

See here for detailed information about svn add.

TortoiseSVN

It works with TortoiseSVN, because it adds the file to your working copy automatically (commit dialog):

If you want to include an unversioned file, just check that file to add it to the commit.

See: TortoiseSVN: Committing Your Changes To The Repository

"Sources directory is already netbeans project" error when opening a project from existing sources

If you are on a Mac, press command shift G and in the box type /users and then go, next click on your user name and navigate to netbeansprojects and open it. Then delete the ones in there that are causing problems. You can then create your project.

Note: I had moved my wordpress folder to my desktop trying to figure this out, so I dropped it back into the origional location and it works fine. So if you did this, just replace the wordpress folder after deleting the problem projects from the netbeansprojects folder and its contents back to the original installation folder.

Hope this helps...:)

Multiple axis line chart in excel

The picture you showd in the question is actually a chart made using JavaScript. It is actually very easy to plot multi-axis chart using JavaScript with the help of 3rd party libraries like HighChart.js or D3.js. Here I propose to use the Funfun Excel add-in which allows you to use JavaScript directly in Excel so you could plot chart like you've showed easily in Excel. Here I made an example using Funfun in Excel.

enter image description here

You could see in this chart you have one axis of Rainfall at the left side while two axis of Temperature and Sea-pressure level at the right side. This is also a combination of line chart and bar chart for different datasets. In this example, with the help of the Funfun add-in, I used HighChart.js to plot this chart.

Funfun also has an online editor in which you could test your JavaScript code with you data. You could check the detailed code of this example on the link below.

https://www.funfun.io/1/#/edit/5a43b416b848f771fbcdee2c

Edit: The content on the previous link has been changed so I posted a new link here. The link below is the original link https://www.funfun.io/1/#/edit/5a55dc978dfd67466879eb24

If you are satisfied with the result you achieved in the online editor, you could easily load the result into you Excel using the URL above. Of couse first you need to insert the Funfun add-in from Insert - My add-ins. Here are some screenshots showing how you could do this.

How to resolve cURL Error (7): couldn't connect to host?

Use a LIKE statement on SQL Server XML Datatype

Another option is to search the XML as a string by converting it to a string and then using LIKE. However as a computed column can't be part of a WHERE clause you need to wrap it in another SELECT like this:

SELECT * FROM
    (SELECT *, CONVERT(varchar(MAX), [COLUMNA]) as [XMLDataString] FROM TABLE) x
WHERE [XMLDataString] like '%Test%'

How to create a zip archive of a directory in Python?

For anyone else delving into this question and trying to archive the very same directory their program is in and is getting both very deep tree structures and ending up with recursion due to the zip file zipping itself, try this.

It's a combination of Mark's answer and some extra checks to ensure that there's no recursive zipping of the zipfile itself, and no unnecessarily deep folder structures.

import os
import zipfile

def zipdir(path, ziph, ignored_directories, ignored_files):
    # ziph is zipfile handle
    for root, dirs, files in os.walk(path):
      for file in files:
        if not any(ignored_dir in root for ignored_dir in ignored_directories):
          if not any(ignored_fname in file for ignored_fname in ignored_files):
            ziph.write(os.path.join(root, file))

# current working directory
this_dir = os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__))

# the directory within the working directory the zip will be created in (build/archives).
zip_dest_dir = os.path.join('build', 'archives')

# verify zip_dest_dir exists: if not, create it
if not os.path.isdir(zip_dest_dir):
    os.makedirs(zip_dest_dir, exist_ok=True)

# leave zip_dest_dir blank (or set dist_dir = this_dir) if you want the zip file in the working directory (same directory as the script)
dest_dir = os.path.join(this_dir, zip_dest_dir)

# name the zip file: remember the file extension
zip_filename = 'zipped_directory.zip'

# zip file's path
zip_path = os.path.join(dest_dir, zip_filename)

# create the zipfile handle: you can change ZIP_STORED to any other compression algorithm of your choice, like ZIP_DEFLATED, if you need actual compression
zipf = zipfile.ZipFile(zip_path, 'w', zipfile.ZIP_STORED)

# ignored files and directories: I personally wanted to ignore the "build" directory, alongside with "node_modules", so those would be listed here.
ignored_dirs = []

# ignore any specific files: in my case, I was ignoring the script itself, so I'd include 'deploy.py' here
ignored_files = [zip_filename]

# zip directory contents
zipdir('.', zipf, ignored_dirs, ignored_files)
zipf.close()

The resulting zip file should only include directories starting from the working directory: so no Users/user/Desktop/code/.../working_directory/.../etc. kind of file structure.

Passing multiple variables to another page in url

Short answer:

This is what you are trying to do but it poses some security and encoding problems so don't do it.

$url = "http://localhost/main.php?email=" . $email_address . "&eventid=" . $event_id;

Long answer:

All variables in querystrings need to be urlencoded to ensure proper transmission. You should never pass a user's personal information in a url because urls are very leaky. Urls end up in log files, browsing histories, referal headers, etc. The list goes on and on.

As for proper url encoding, it can be achieved using either urlencode() or http_build_query(). Either one of these should work:

$url = "http://localhost/main.php?email=" . urlencode($email_address) . "&eventid=" . urlencode($event_id);

or

$vars = array('email' => $email_address, 'event_id' => $event_id);
$querystring = http_build_query($vars);
$url = "http://localhost/main.php?" . $querystring;

Additionally, if $event_id is in your session, you don't actually need to pass it around in order to access it from different pages. Just call session_start() and it should be available.

Initialize empty vector in structure - c++

The default vector constructor will create an empty vector. As such, you should be able to write:

struct user r = { string(), vector<unsigned char>() };

Note, I've also used the default string constructor instead of "".

You might want to consider making user a class and adding a default constructor that does this for you:

class User {
  User() {}
  string username;
  vector<unsigned char> password;
};

Then just writing:

User r;

Will result in a correctly initialized user.

Text size of android design TabLayout tabs

Try the snipped which is mentioned below, it works for me also.

In my layout xml where I have my TabLayout, have added style to the TabLayout like below :

<android.support.design.widget.TabLayout
    android:id="@+id/tab_layout"
    style="@style/MyCustomTabLayout"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    app:tabGravity="fill"
    app:tabMode="fixed" />

and in my style.xml I have defined the style that is used in my layout xml, check code for styles added below :

<style name="MyCustomTabLayout" parent="Widget.Design.TabLayout">
    <item name="android:background">YOUR BACKGROUND COLOR</item>
    <item name="tabTextAppearance">@style/MyCustomTabText</item>
    <item name="tabSelectedTextColor">SELECTED TAB TEXT COLOR</item>
    <item name="tabIndicatorColor">SELECTED TAB INDICATOR COLOR</item>
</style>

<style name="MyCustomTabText" parent="TextAppearance.AppCompat.Button">
    <item name="android:textSize">YOUR TEXT SIZE</item>
    <item name="android:textStyle">bold</item>
    <item name="android:textColor">@android:color/white</item>
</style>

I hope it will work for you.....

Is there a method to generate a UUID with go language

As part of the uuid spec, if you generate a uuid from random it must contain a "4" as the 13th character and a "8", "9", "a", or "b" in the 17th (source).

// this makes sure that the 13th character is "4"
u[6] = (u[6] | 0x40) & 0x4F
// this makes sure that the 17th is "8", "9", "a", or "b"
u[8] = (u[8] | 0x80) & 0xBF 

Hibernate: Automatically creating/updating the db tables based on entity classes

I don't know if leaving hibernate off the front makes a difference.

The reference suggests it should be hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto

A value of create will create your tables at sessionFactory creation, and leave them intact.

A value of create-drop will create your tables, and then drop them when you close the sessionFactory.

Perhaps you should set the javax.persistence.Table annotation explicitly?

Hope this helps.

Restore DB — Error RESTORE HEADERONLY is terminating abnormally.

I ran into this issue and my problem was a bit more involved... Originally I was trying to restore a SQL Server 2000 backup to SQL Server 2012. Of course this didn't work cause SQL server 2012 only supports backups from 2005 and upwards .

So, I restored the database on a SQL Server 2008 machine. Once this was done - I copied the database over to restore on SQL Server 2012 - and it failed with the following error

The media family on device 'C:\XXXXXXXXXXX.bak' is incorrectly formed. SQL Server cannot process this media family. RESTORE HEADERONLY is terminating abnormally. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 3241)

After a lot of research I found that I had skipped a step - I had to go back to the SQL Server 2008 machine and Right Click On the database(that I wanted to backup)> Properties > Options > Make sure compatibility level is set to SQL Server 2008. > Save

And then re-create the backup - After this I was able to restore to SQL Server 2012.

How to determine day of week by passing specific date?

tl;dr

Using java.time

LocalDate.parse(                               // Generate `LocalDate` object from String input.
             "23/2/2010" ,
             DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern( "d/M/uuuu" ) 
         )                                    
         .getDayOfWeek()                       // Get `DayOfWeek` enum object.
         .getDisplayName(                      // Localize. Generate a String to represent this day-of-week.
             TextStyle.SHORT_STANDALONE ,      // How long or abbreviated. Some languages have an alternate spelling for "standalone" use (not so in English).
             Locale.US                         // Or Locale.CANADA_FRENCH and such. Specify a `Locale` to determine (1) human language for translation, and (2) cultural norms for abbreviation, punctuation, etc.
         )

See my example code above, and see the correct Answer for java.time by Przemek.

Ordinal number

if just the day ordinal is desired, how can that be retrieved?

For ordinal number, consider passing around the DayOfWeek enum object instead such as DayOfWeek.TUESDAY. Keep in mind that a DayOfWeek is a smart object, not just a string or mere integer number. Using those enum objects makes your code more self-documenting, ensures valid values, and provides type-safety.

But if you insist, ask DayOfWeek for a number. You get 1-7 for Monday-Sunday per the ISO 8601 standard.

int ordinal = myLocalDate.getDayOfWeek().getValue() ;

Joda-Time

UPDATE: The Joda-Time project is now in maintenance mode. The team advises migrating to the java.time classes. The java.time framework is built into Java 8 (as well as back-ported to Java 6 & 7 and further adapted to Android).

Here is example code using the Joda-Time library version 2.4, as mentioned in the accepted answer by Bozho. Joda-Time is far superior to the java.util.Date/.Calendar classes bundled with Java.

LocalDate

Joda-Time offers the LocalDate class to represent a date-only without any time-of-day or time zone. Just what this Question calls for. The old java.util.Date/.Calendar classes bundled with Java lack this concept.

Parse

Parse the string into a date value.

String input = "23/2/2010";
DateTimeFormatter formatter = DateTimeFormat.forPattern( "d/M/yyyy" );
LocalDate localDate = formatter.parseLocalDate( input );

Extract

Extract from the date value the day of week number and name.

int dayOfWeek = localDate.getDayOfWeek(); // Follows ISO 8601 standard, where Monday = 1, Sunday = 7.
Locale locale = Locale.US;  // Locale specifies the human language to use in determining day-of-week name (Tuesday in English versus Mardi in French).
DateTimeFormatter formatterOutput = DateTimeFormat.forPattern( "E" ).withLocale( locale );
String output = formatterOutput.print( localDate ); // 'E' is code for abbreviation of day-of-week name. See Joda-Time doc.
String outputQuébécois = formatterOutput.withLocale( Locale.CANADA_FRENCH ).print( localDate );

Dump

Dump to console.

System.out.println( "input: " + input );
System.out.println( "localDate: " + localDate ); // Defaults to ISO 8601 formatted strings.
System.out.println( "dayOfWeek: " + dayOfWeek );
System.out.println( "output: " + output );
System.out.println( "outputQuébécois: " + outputQuébécois );

Run

When run.

input: 23/2/2010
localDate: 2010-02-23
dayOfWeek: 2
output: Tue
outputQuébécois: mar.

About java.time

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

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

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

Where to obtain the java.time classes?

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

VBA code to set date format for a specific column as "yyyy-mm-dd"

Use the range's NumberFormat property to force the format of the range like this:

Sheet1.Range("A2", "A50000").NumberFormat = "yyyy-mm-dd"

.attr("disabled", "disabled") issue

Try this updated code :

$(bla).click(function(){        
  if (something) {
     console.log($target.prev("input")) // gives out the right object
     $target.toggleClass("open").prev("input").attr("disabled", "true");
  }else{
     $target.toggleClass("open").prev("input").removeAttr("disabled"); //this works
  }
})

Ajax Upload image

HTML Code

<div class="rCol"> 
     <div id ="prv" style="height:auto; width:auto; float:left; margin-bottom: 28px; margin-left: 200px;"></div>
       </div>
    <div class="rCol" style="clear:both;">

    <label > Upload Photo : </label> 
    <input type="file" id="file" name='file' onChange=" return submitForm();">
    <input type="hidden" id="filecount" value='0'>

Here is Ajax Code:

function submitForm() {

    var fcnt = $('#filecount').val();
    var fname = $('#filename').val();
    var imgclean = $('#file');
    if(fcnt<=5)
    {
    data = new FormData();
    data.append('file', $('#file')[0].files[0]);

    var imgname  =  $('input[type=file]').val();
     var size  =  $('#file')[0].files[0].size;

    var ext =  imgname.substr( (imgname.lastIndexOf('.') +1) );
    if(ext=='jpg' || ext=='jpeg' || ext=='png' || ext=='gif' || ext=='PNG' || ext=='JPG' || ext=='JPEG')
    {
     if(size<=1000000)
     {
    $.ajax({
      url: "<?php echo base_url() ?>/upload.php",
      type: "POST",
      data: data,
      enctype: 'multipart/form-data',
      processData: false,  // tell jQuery not to process the data
      contentType: false   // tell jQuery not to set contentType
    }).done(function(data) {
       if(data!='FILE_SIZE_ERROR' || data!='FILE_TYPE_ERROR' )
       {
        fcnt = parseInt(fcnt)+1;
        $('#filecount').val(fcnt);
        var img = '<div class="dialog" id ="img_'+fcnt+'" ><img src="<?php echo base_url() ?>/local_cdn/'+data+'"><a href="#" id="rmv_'+fcnt+'" onclick="return removeit('+fcnt+')" class="close-classic"></a></div><input type="hidden" id="name_'+fcnt+'" value="'+data+'">';
        $('#prv').append(img);
        if(fname!=='')
        {
          fname = fname+','+data;
        }else
        {
          fname = data;
        }
         $('#filename').val(fname);
          imgclean.replaceWith( imgclean = imgclean.clone( true ) );
       }
       else
       {
         imgclean.replaceWith( imgclean = imgclean.clone( true ) );
         alert('SORRY SIZE AND TYPE ISSUE');
       }

    });
    return false;
  }//end size
  else
  {
      imgclean.replaceWith( imgclean = imgclean.clone( true ) );//Its for reset the value of file type
    alert('Sorry File size exceeding from 1 Mb');
  }
  }//end FILETYPE
  else
  {
     imgclean.replaceWith( imgclean = imgclean.clone( true ) );
    alert('Sorry Only you can uplaod JPEG|JPG|PNG|GIF file type ');
  }
  }//end filecount
  else
  {    imgclean.replaceWith( imgclean = imgclean.clone( true ) );
     alert('You Can not Upload more than 6 Photos');
  }
}

Here is PHP code :

$filetype = array('jpeg','jpg','png','gif','PNG','JPEG','JPG');
   foreach ($_FILES as $key )
    {

          $name =time().$key['name'];

          $path='local_cdn/'.$name;
          $file_ext =  pathinfo($name, PATHINFO_EXTENSION);
          if(in_array(strtolower($file_ext), $filetype))
          {
            if($key['name']<1000000)
            {

             @move_uploaded_file($key['tmp_name'],$path);
             echo $name;

            }
           else
           {
               echo "FILE_SIZE_ERROR";
           }
        }
        else
        {
            echo "FILE_TYPE_ERROR";
        }// Its simple code.Its not with proper validation.

Here upload and preview part done.Now if you want to delete and remove image from page and folder both then code is here for deletion. Ajax Part:

function removeit (arg) {
       var id  = arg;
       // GET FILE VALUE
       var fname = $('#filename').val();
       var fcnt = $('#filecount').val();
        // GET FILE VALUE

       $('#img_'+id).remove();
       $('#rmv_'+id).remove();
       $('#img_'+id).css('display','none');

        var dname  =  $('#name_'+id).val();
        fcnt = parseInt(fcnt)-1;
        $('#filecount').val(fcnt);
        var fname = fname.replace(dname, "");
        var fname = fname.replace(",,", "");
        $('#filename').val(fname);
        $.ajax({
          url: 'delete.php',
          type: 'POST',
          data:{'name':dname},
          success:function(a){
            console.log(a);
            }
        });
    } 

Here is PHP part(delete.php):

$path='local_cdn/'.$_POST['name'];

   if(@unlink($path))
   {
     echo "Success";
   }
   else
   {
     echo "Failed";
   }

Jersey stopped working with InjectionManagerFactory not found

Here is the reason. Starting from Jersey 2.26, Jersey removed HK2 as a hard dependency. It created an SPI as a facade for the dependency injection provider, in the form of the InjectionManager and InjectionManagerFactory. So for Jersey to run, we need to have an implementation of the InjectionManagerFactory. There are two implementations of this, which are for HK2 and CDI. The HK2 dependency is the jersey-hk2 others are talking about.

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.glassfish.jersey.inject</groupId>
    <artifactId>jersey-hk2</artifactId>
    <version>2.26</version>
</dependency>

The CDI dependency is

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.glassfish.jersey.inject</groupId>
    <artifactId>jersey-cdi2-se</artifactId>
    <version>2.26</version>
</dependency>

This (jersey-cdi2-se) should only be used for SE environments and not EE environments.

Jersey made this change to allow others to provide their own dependency injection framework. They don't have any plans to implement any other InjectionManagers, though others have made attempts at implementing one for Guice.
