Google Maps API OVER QUERY LIMIT per second limit


This approach is not correct beacuse of Google Server Overload. For more informations see https://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/15052/how-to-avoid-google-map-geocode-limit#answer-15365


By the way, if you wish to proceed anyway, here you can find a code that let you load multiple markers ajax sourced on google maps avoiding OVER_QUERY_LIMIT error.

I've tested on my onw server and it works!:

var lost_addresses = [];
    geocode_count  = 0;
    resNumber = 0;
    map = new GMaps({
       div: '#gmap_marker',
       lat: 43.921493,
       lng: 12.337646,
    });

function loadMarkerTimeout(timeout) {
    setTimeout(loadMarker, timeout)
}

function loadMarker() { 
    map.setZoom(6);         
    $.ajax({
            url: [Insert here your URL] ,
            type:'POST',
            data: {
                "action":   "loadMarker"
            },
            success:function(result){

                /***************************
                 * Assuming your ajax call
                 * return something like: 
                 *   array(
                 *      'status' => 'success',
                 *      'results'=> $resultsArray
                 *   );
                 **************************/

                var res=JSON.parse(result);
                if(res.status == 'success') {
                    resNumber = res.results.length;
                    //Call the geoCoder function
                    getGeoCodeFor(map, res.results);
                }

Reverse Contents in Array

This would be my approach:

#include <algorithm>
#include <iterator>

int main()
{
  const int SIZE = 10;
  int arr [SIZE] = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10};
  std::reverse(std::begin(arr), std::end(arr));
  ...
}

Byte Array to Image object

From Database.
Blob blob = resultSet.getBlob("pictureBlob");               
byte [] data = blob.getBytes( 1, ( int ) blob.length() );
BufferedImage img = null;
try {
img = ImageIO.read(new ByteArrayInputStream(data));
} catch (IOException e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
}
drawPicture(img);  //  void drawPicture(Image img);

Post Build exited with code 1

I had a similar issue but specifically in a Jenkins build environment. To fix the issue, I switched from using a copy command in the post build event to using a copy target.

I changed this:

   <PropertyGroup>
      <PostBuildEvent>copy $(ProjectDir)bin\BLAH.Common.xml $(ProjectDir)App_Data\BLAH.Common.xml</PostBuildEvent>
   </PropertyGroup>

to this:

  <Target Name="AfterBuild">
    <Copy SourceFiles="$(ProjectDir)bin\BLAH.Common.xml" DestinationFolder="$(ProjectDir)App_Data\" />
  </Target>

and it works fine now.

The specific error I was getting was:

(PostBuildEvent target) -> 
  C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\Microsoft.Common.targets(4291,5): error MSB3073: The command "copy <http://1.2.3.4/job/BLAHv2/ws/Api/bin/BLAH.Common.xml> <http://1.2.3.4/job/BLAHv2/ws/Api/App_Data/BLAH.Common.xml"> exited with code 1. [<http://1.2.3.4/job/BLAHv2/ws/Api/Api.csproj]>

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

Basically find the php.ini file and comment out the OPCache lines. I hope this alternative answer helps others else out as well.

Huge performance difference when using group by vs distinct

The two queries express the same question. Apparently the query optimizer chooses two different execution plans. My guess would be that the distinct approach is executed like:

  • Copy all business_key values to a temporary table
  • Sort the temporary table
  • Scan the temporary table, returning each item that is different from the one before it

The group by could be executed like:

  • Scan the full table, storing each value of business key in a hashtable
  • Return the keys of the hashtable

The first method optimizes for memory usage: it would still perform reasonably well when part of the temporary table has to be swapped out. The second method optimizes for speed, but potentially requires a large amount of memory if there are a lot of different keys.

Since you either have enough memory or few different keys, the second method outperforms the first. It's not unusual to see performance differences of 10x or even 100x between two execution plans.

How to list files inside a folder with SQL Server

I hunted around for ages to find a decent easy solution to this and in the end found some ridiculously complicated CLR solutions so decided to write my own simple VB one. Simply create a new VB CLR project from the Database tab under Installed Templates, and then add a new SQL CLR VB User Defined Function. I renamed it to CLRGetFilesInDir.vb. Here's the code inside it...

Imports System
Imports System.Data
Imports System.Data.Sql
Imports System.Data.SqlTypes
Imports Microsoft.SqlServer.Server
Imports System.IO
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Public Class CLRFilesInDir
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
<SqlFunction(FillRowMethodName:="FillRowFiles", IsDeterministic:=True, IsPrecise:=True, TableDefinition:="FilePath nvarchar(4000)")> _
Public Shared Function GetFiles(PathName As SqlString, Pattern As SqlString) As IEnumerable
    Dim FileNames As String()

    Try
    FileNames = Directory.GetFiles(PathName, Pattern, SearchOption.TopDirectoryOnly)
    Catch
        FileNames = Nothing
    End Try

    Return FileNames

End Function
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Public Shared Sub FillRowFiles(ByVal obj As Object, ByRef Val As SqlString)
    Val = CType(obj, String).ToString
End Sub

End Class

I also changed the Assembly Name in the Project Properties window to CLRExcelFiles, and the Default Namespace to CLRGetExcelFiles.

NOTE: Set the target framework to 3.5 if you are using anything less that SQL Server 2012.

Compile the project and then copy the CLRExcelFiles.dll from \bin\release to somewhere like C:\temp on the SQL Server machine, not your own.

In SSMS:-

CREATE ASSEMBLY <your assembly name in here - anything you like>
FROM 'C:\temp\CLRExcelFiles.dll';

CREATE FUNCTION dbo.fnGetFiles
(
@PathName NVARCHAR(MAX),
@Pattern NVARCHAR(MAX)
)
RETURNS TABLE (Val NVARCHAR(100))
AS
EXTERNAL NAME <your assembly name>."CLRGetExcelFiles.CLRFilesInDir".GetFiles;
GO

then call it

SELECT * FROM dbo.fnGetFiles('\\<SERVERNAME>\<$SHARE>\<folder>\' , '*.xls')

NOTE: Even though I changed the Permission Level to EXTERNAL_ACCESS on the SQLCLR tab under Project Properties, I still needed to run this every time I (re)created it.

ALTER ASSEMBLY [CLRFilesInDirAssembly] 
WITH PERMISSION_SET = EXTERNAL_ACCESS 
GO

and wullah! that should work.

Can't connect to MySQL server on '127.0.0.1' (10061) (2003)

maybe it has a different solution, but I fixed it by finding mysqld.exe and running following command in the console:

C:\wamp\bin\mysql\mysql5.6.17\bin\mysqld.exe --console

You should be able to see following result:

  • A new page will be opened having checkbox at the bottom saying "Foreign key check", uncheck it.
  • Confirm the deletion by accepting "yes".

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

Note Wording changed in response to the commments. Thanks @slekse
That is not an error, it is a warning. It means the branch you are about to delete contains commits that are not reachable from any of: its upstream branch, or HEAD (currently checked out revision). In other words, when you might lose commits¹.

In practice it means that you probably amended, rebased or filtered commits and they don't seem identical.

Therefore you could avoid the warning by checking out a branch that does contain the commits that you're about un-reference by deleting that other branch.²

You will want to verify that you in fact aren't missing any vital commits:

git log --graph --left-right --cherry-pick --oneline master...experiment

This will give you a list of any nonshared between the branches. In case you are curious, there might be a difference without --cherry-pick and this difference could well be the reason for the warning you get:

--cherry-pick

Omit any commit that introduces the same change as another commit on the "other side" when the set of commits are limited with symmetric difference. For example, if you have two branches, A and B, a usual way to list all commits on only one side of them is with --left-right, like the example above in the description of that option. It however shows the commits that were cherry-picked from the other branch (for example, "3rd on b" may be cherry-picked from branch A). With this option, such pairs of commits are excluded from the output.


¹ they're really only garbage collected after a while, by default. Also, the git-branch command does not check the revision tree of all branches. The warning is there to avoid obvious mistakes.

² (My preference here is to just force the deletion instead, but you might want to have the extra reassurance).

Import multiple csv files into pandas and concatenate into one DataFrame

If you have same columns in all your csv files then you can try the code below. I have added header=0 so that after reading csv first row can be assigned as the column names.

import pandas as pd
import glob

path = r'C:\DRO\DCL_rawdata_files' # use your path
all_files = glob.glob(path + "/*.csv")

li = []

for filename in all_files:
    df = pd.read_csv(filename, index_col=None, header=0)
    li.append(df)

frame = pd.concat(li, axis=0, ignore_index=True)

How do I alias commands in git?

If you want an alternative to the ~/.gitconfig option and open to digging in a little more, another option is to write entirely custom git commands by wrapping them in a global node package.

In your package.json, you'd define the root command (example: gt), and then filter the specific commands to execute the correct git commands. For example, git checkout my-branch could be gt co mybranch.

The "christian-git" package on npm uses this method: https://github.com/alexmacarthur/christian-git

The security exception is now gone and ALL of the log messages are appearing again.

Additionally, I later found another Security exception and was able to fix it by following the instructions on this post in another thread.

Is there a way to get version from package.json in nodejs code?

In case you want to get version of the target package.

import { version } from 'TARGET_PACKAGE/package.json';

Example:

import { version } from 'react/package.json';

CSS text-align: center; is not centering things

I assume you want all the items next to each other, and the whole thing to be centered horizontally.

li elements are display: block by default, taking up all the horizontal space.

Add

div#footer ul li { display: inline }

once you've done that, you probably want to get rid of the list's bullets:

div#footer ul { list-style-type: none; padding: 0px; margin: 0px }

is there any PHP function for open page in new tab

You can simply use target="_blank" to open a page in a new tab

<a href="whatever.php" target="_blank">Opens On Another Tab</a>

Or you can simply use a javascript for onload

<body onload="window.open(url, '_blank');">

How to use a variable inside a regular expression?

I needed to search for usernames that are similar to each other, and what Ned Batchelder said was incredibly helpful. However, I found I had cleaner output when I used re.compile to create my re search term:

pattern = re.compile(r"("+username+".*):(.*?):(.*?):(.*?):(.*)"
matches = re.findall(pattern, lines)

Output can be printed using the following:

print(matches[1]) # prints one whole matching line (in this case, the first line)
print(matches[1][3]) # prints the fourth character group (established with the parentheses in the regex statement) of the first line.

Docker error: invalid reference format: repository name must be lowercase

"docker build -f Dockerfile -t SpringBoot-Docker ." As in the above commend, we are creating an image file for docker container. commend says create image use file(-f refer to docker file) and -t for the target of the image file we are going to push to docker. the "." represents the current directory

solution for the above problem: provide target image name in lowercase

Rails - passing parameters in link_to

First of all, link_to is a html tag helper, its second argument is the url, followed by html_options. What you would like is to pass account_id as a url parameter to the path. If you have set up named routes correctly in routes.rb, you can use path helpers.

link_to "+ Service", new_my_service_path(:account_id => acct.id)

I think the best practice is to pass model values as a param nested within :

link_to "+ Service", new_my_service_path(:my_service => { :account_id => acct.id })

# my_services_controller.rb
def new
  @my_service = MyService.new(params[:my_service])
end

And you need to control that account_id is allowed for 'mass assignment'. In rails 3 you can use powerful controls to filter valid params within the controller where it belongs. I highly recommend.

http://apidock.com/rails/ActiveModel/MassAssignmentSecurity/ClassMethods

Also note that if account_id is not freely set by the user (e.g., a user can only submit a service for the own single account_id, then it is better practice not to send it via the request, but set it within the controller by adding something like:

@my_service.account_id = current_user.account_id 

You can surely combine the two if you only allow users to create service on their own account, but allow admin to create anyone's by using roles in attr_accessible.

hope this helps

Non greedy (reluctant) regex matching in sed?

Here is something you can do with a two step approach and awk:

A=http://www.suepearson.co.uk/product/174/71/3816/  
echo $A|awk '  
{  
  var=gensub(///,"||",3,$0) ;  
  sub(/\|\|.*/,"",var);  
  print var  
}'  

Output: http://www.suepearson.co.uk

Hope that helps!

Min and max value of input in angular4 application

You can write a directive to listen the change event on the input and reset the value to the min value if it is too low. StackBlitz

@HostListener('change') onChange() {
  const min = +this.elementRef.nativeElement.getAttribute('min');

  if (this.valueIsLessThanMin(min, +this.elementRef.nativeElement.value)) {
    this.renderer2.setProperty(
      this.elementRef.nativeElement,
      'value',
      min + ''
    );
  }
}

Also listen for the ngModelChange event to do the same when the form value is set.

@HostListener('ngModelChange', ['$event'])
onModelChange(value: number) {
  const min = +this.elementRef.nativeElement.getAttribute('min');
  if (this.valueIsLessThanMin(min, value)) {
    const formControl = this.formControlName
      ? this.formControlName.control
      : this.formControlDirective.control;

    if (formControl) {
      if (formControl.updateOn === 'change') {
        console.warn(
          `minValueDirective: form control ${this.formControlName.name} is set to update on change
          this can cause issues with min update values.`
        );
      }
      formControl.reset(min);
    }
  }
}

Full code:

import {
  Directive,
  ElementRef,
  HostListener,
  Optional,
  Renderer2,
  Self
} from "@angular/core";
import { FormControlDirective, FormControlName } from "@angular/forms";

@Directive({
  // tslint:disable-next-line: directive-selector
  selector: "input[minValue][min][type=number]"
})
export class MinValueDirective {
  @HostListener("change") onChange() {
    const min = +this.elementRef.nativeElement.getAttribute("min");

    if (this.valueIsLessThanMin(min, +this.elementRef.nativeElement.value)) {
      this.renderer2.setProperty(
        this.elementRef.nativeElement,
        "value",
        min + ""
      );
    }
  }

  // if input is a form control validate on model change
  @HostListener("ngModelChange", ["$event"])
  onModelChange(value: number) {
    const min = +this.elementRef.nativeElement.getAttribute("min");
    if (this.valueIsLessThanMin(min, value)) {
      const formControl = this.formControlName
        ? this.formControlName.control
        : this.formControlDirective.control;

      if (formControl) {
        if (formControl.updateOn === "change") {
          console.warn(
            `minValueDirective: form control ${
              this.formControlName.name
            } is set to update on change
              this can cause issues with min update values.`
          );
        }
        formControl.reset(min);
      }
    }
  }

  constructor(
    private elementRef: ElementRef<HTMLInputElement>,
    private renderer2: Renderer2,
    @Optional() @Self() private formControlName: FormControlName,
    @Optional() @Self() private formControlDirective: FormControlDirective
  ) {}

  private valueIsLessThanMin(min: any, value: number): boolean {
    return typeof min === "number" && value && value < min;
  }
}

Make sure to use this with the form control set to updateOn blur or the user won't be able to enter a +1 digit number if the first digit is below the min value.

 this.formGroup = this.formBuilder.group({
    test: [
      null,
      {
        updateOn: 'blur',
        validators: [Validators.min(5)]
      }
    ]
  });

Convert String XML fragment to Document Node in Java

For what it's worth, here's a solution I came up with using the dom4j library. (I did check that it works.)

Read the XML fragment into a org.dom4j.Document (note: all the XML classes used below are from org.dom4j; see Appendix):

  String newNode = "<node>value</node>"; // Convert this to XML
  SAXReader reader = new SAXReader();
  Document newNodeDocument = reader.read(new StringReader(newNode));

Then get the Document into which the new node is inserted, and the parent Element (to be) from it. (Your org.w3c.dom.Document would need to be converted to org.dom4j.Document here.) For testing purposes, I created one like this:

    Document originalDoc = 
      new SAXReader().read(new StringReader("<root><given></given></root>"));
    Element givenNode = originalDoc.getRootElement().element("given");

Adding the new child element is very simple:

    givenNode.add(newNodeDocument.getRootElement());

Done. Outputting originalDoc now yields:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<root>
    <given>
        <node>value</node>
    </given>
</root>

Appendix: Because your question talks about org.w3c.dom.Document, here's how to convert between that and org.dom4j.Document.

// dom4j -> w3c
DOMWriter writer = new DOMWriter();
org.w3c.dom.Document w3cDoc = writer.write(dom4jDoc);

// w3c -> dom4j
DOMReader reader = new DOMReader();
Document dom4jDoc = reader.read(w3cDoc);

(If you'd need both kind of Documents regularly, it might make sense to put these in neat utility methods, maybe in a class called XMLUtils or something like that.)

Maybe there are better ways to do this, even without any 3rd party libraries. But out of the solutions presented so far, in my view this is the easiest way, even if you need to do the dom4j <-> w3c conversions.

Update (2011): before adding dom4j dependency to your code, note that it is not an actively maintained project, and has some other problems too. Improved version 2.0 has been in the works for ages, but there's only an alpha version available. You may want to consider an alternative, like XOM, instead; read more in the question linked above.

create a white rgba / CSS3

The code you have is a white with low opacity.

If something white with a low opacity is above something black, you end up with a lighter shade of gray. Above red? Lighter red, etc. That is how opacity works.

Here is a simple demo.

If you want it to look 'more white', make it less opaque:

background:rgba(255,255,255, 0.9);

How do I compare two string variables in an 'if' statement in Bash?

This question has already great answers, but here it appears that there is a slight confusion between using single equal (=) and double equals (==) in

if [ "$s1" == "$s2" ]

The main difference lies in which scripting language you are using. If you are using Bash then include #!/bin/bash in the starting of the script and save your script as filename.bash. To execute, use bash filename.bash - then you have to use ==.

If you are using sh then use #!/bin/sh and save your script as filename.sh. To execute use sh filename.sh - then you have to use single =. Avoid intermixing them.

How do I pause my shell script for a second before continuing?

use trap to pause and check command line (in color using tput) before running it

trap 'tput setaf 1;tput bold;echo $BASH_COMMAND;read;tput init' DEBUG

press any key to continue

use with set -x to debug command line

Storing Data in MySQL as JSON

MySQL 5.7 Now supports a native JSON data type similar to MongoDB and other schemaless document data stores:

JSON support

Beginning with MySQL 5.7.8, MySQL supports a native JSON type. JSON values are not stored as strings, instead using an internal binary format that permits quick read access to document elements. JSON documents stored in JSON columns are automatically validated whenever they are inserted or updated, with an invalid document producing an error. JSON documents are normalized on creation, and can be compared using most comparison operators such as =, <, <=, >, >=, <>, !=, and <=>; for information about supported operators as well as precedence and other rules that MySQL follows when comparing JSON values, see Comparison and Ordering of JSON Values.

MySQL 5.7.8 also introduces a number of functions for working with JSON values. These functions include those listed here:

  1. Functions that create JSON values: JSON_ARRAY(), JSON_MERGE(), and JSON_OBJECT(). See Section 12.16.2, “Functions That Create JSON Values”.
  2. Functions that search JSON values: JSON_CONTAINS(), JSON_CONTAINS_PATH(), JSON_EXTRACT(), JSON_KEYS(), and JSON_SEARCH(). See Section 12.16.3, “Functions That Search JSON Values”.
  3. Functions that modify JSON values: JSON_APPEND(), JSON_ARRAY_APPEND(), JSON_ARRAY_INSERT(), JSON_INSERT(), JSON_QUOTE(), JSON_REMOVE(), JSON_REPLACE(), JSON_SET(), and JSON_UNQUOTE(). See Section 12.16.4, “Functions That Modify JSON Values”.
  4. Functions that provide information about JSON values: JSON_DEPTH(), JSON_LENGTH(), JSON_TYPE(), and JSON_VALID(). See Section 12.16.5, “Functions That Return JSON Value Attributes”.

In MySQL 5.7.9 and later, you can use column->path as shorthand for JSON_EXTRACT(column, path). This works as an alias for a column wherever a column identifier can occur in an SQL statement, including WHERE, ORDER BY, and GROUP BY clauses. This includes SELECT, UPDATE, DELETE, CREATE TABLE, and other SQL statements. The left hand side must be a JSON column identifier (and not an alias). The right hand side is a quoted JSON path expression which is evaluated against the JSON document returned as the column value.

See Section 12.16.3, “Functions That Search JSON Values”, for more information about -> and JSON_EXTRACT(). For information about JSON path support in MySQL 5.7, see Searching and Modifying JSON Values. See also Secondary Indexes and Virtual Generated Columns.

vertical divider between two columns in bootstrap

In Bootstrap 4 there is the utility class border-right which you can use.

So for example you can do:

  <div class="col-6 border-right"></div>
  <div class="col-6"></div>
</div>

.NET NewtonSoft JSON deserialize map to a different property name

If you'd like to use dynamic mapping, and don't want to clutter up your model with attributes, this approach worked for me

Usage:

var settings = new JsonSerializerSettings();
settings.DateFormatString = "YYYY-MM-DD";
settings.ContractResolver = new CustomContractResolver();
this.DataContext = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<CountResponse>(jsonString, settings);

Logic:

public class CustomContractResolver : DefaultContractResolver
{
    private Dictionary<string, string> PropertyMappings { get; set; }

    public CustomContractResolver()
    {
        this.PropertyMappings = new Dictionary<string, string> 
        {
            {"Meta", "meta"},
            {"LastUpdated", "last_updated"},
            {"Disclaimer", "disclaimer"},
            {"License", "license"},
            {"CountResults", "results"},
            {"Term", "term"},
            {"Count", "count"},
        };
    }

    protected override string ResolvePropertyName(string propertyName)
    {
        string resolvedName = null;
        var resolved = this.PropertyMappings.TryGetValue(propertyName, out resolvedName);
        return (resolved) ? resolvedName : base.ResolvePropertyName(propertyName);
    }
}

What is (functional) reactive programming?

If you want to get a feel for FRP, you could start with the old Fran tutorial from 1998, which has animated illustrations. For papers, start with Functional Reactive Animation and then follow up on links on the publications link on my home page and the FRP link on the Haskell wiki.

Personally, I like to think about what FRP means before addressing how it might be implemented. (Code without a specification is an answer without a question and thus "not even wrong".) So I don't describe FRP in representation/implementation terms as Thomas K does in another answer (graphs, nodes, edges, firing, execution, etc). There are many possible implementation styles, but no implementation says what FRP is.

I do resonate with Laurence G's simple description that FRP is about "datatypes that represent a value 'over time' ". Conventional imperative programming captures these dynamic values only indirectly, through state and mutations. The complete history (past, present, future) has no first class representation. Moreover, only discretely evolving values can be (indirectly) captured, since the imperative paradigm is temporally discrete. In contrast, FRP captures these evolving values directly and has no difficulty with continuously evolving values.

FRP is also unusual in that it is concurrent without running afoul of the theoretical & pragmatic rats' nest that plagues imperative concurrency. Semantically, FRP's concurrency is fine-grained, determinate, and continuous. (I'm talking about meaning, not implementation. An implementation may or may not involve concurrency or parallelism.) Semantic determinacy is very important for reasoning, both rigorous and informal. While concurrency adds enormous complexity to imperative programming (due to nondeterministic interleaving), it is effortless in FRP.

So, what is FRP? You could have invented it yourself. Start with these ideas:

  • Dynamic/evolving values (i.e., values "over time") are first class values in themselves. You can define them and combine them, pass them into & out of functions. I called these things "behaviors".

  • Behaviors are built up out of a few primitives, like constant (static) behaviors and time (like a clock), and then with sequential and parallel combination. n behaviors are combined by applying an n-ary function (on static values), "point-wise", i.e., continuously over time.

  • To account for discrete phenomena, have another type (family) of "events", each of which has a stream (finite or infinite) of occurrences. Each occurrence has an associated time and value.

  • To come up with the compositional vocabulary out of which all behaviors and events can be built, play with some examples. Keep deconstructing into pieces that are more general/simple.

  • So that you know you're on solid ground, give the whole model a compositional foundation, using the technique of denotational semantics, which just means that (a) each type has a corresponding simple & precise mathematical type of "meanings", and (b) each primitive and operator has a simple & precise meaning as a function of the meanings of the constituents. Never, ever mix implementation considerations into your exploration process. If this description is gibberish to you, consult (a) Denotational design with type class morphisms, (b) Push-pull functional reactive programming (ignoring the implementation bits), and (c) the Denotational Semantics Haskell wikibooks page. Beware that denotational semantics has two parts, from its two founders Christopher Strachey and Dana Scott: the easier & more useful Strachey part and the harder and less useful (for software design) Scott part.

If you stick with these principles, I expect you'll get something more-or-less in the spirit of FRP.

Where did I get these principles? In software design, I always ask the same question: "what does it mean?". Denotational semantics gave me a precise framework for this question, and one that fits my aesthetics (unlike operational or axiomatic semantics, both of which leave me unsatisfied). So I asked myself what is behavior? I soon realized that the temporally discrete nature of imperative computation is an accommodation to a particular style of machine, rather than a natural description of behavior itself. The simplest precise description of behavior I can think of is simply "function of (continuous) time", so that's my model. Delightfully, this model handles continuous, deterministic concurrency with ease and grace.

It's been quite a challenge to implement this model correctly and efficiently, but that's another story.

onSaveInstanceState () and onRestoreInstanceState ()

In my case, onRestoreInstanceState was called when the activity was reconstructed after changing the device orientation. onCreate(Bundle) was called first, but the bundle didn't have the key/values I set with onSaveInstanceState(Bundle).

Right after, onRestoreInstanceState(Bundle) was called with a bundle that had the correct key/values.

How to get the full path of running process?

 using System.Diagnostics;
 var process = Process.GetCurrentProcess(); // Or whatever method you are using
 string fullPath = process.MainModule.FileName;
 //fullPath has the path to exe.

There is one catch with this API, if you are running this code in 32 bit application, you'll not be able to access 64-bit application paths, so you'd have to compile and run you app as 64-bit application (Project Properties ? Build ? Platform Target ? x64).

Faking an RS232 Serial Port

I use com0com - With Signed Driver, on windows 7 x64 to emulate COM3 AND COM4 as a pair.

Then i use COM Dataport Emulator to recieve from COM4.

Then i open COM3 with the app im developping (c#) and send data to COM3.

The data sent thru COM3 is received by COM4 and shown by 'COM Dataport Emulator' who can also send back a response (not automated).

So with this 2 great programs i managed to emulate Serial RS-232 comunication.

Hope it helps.

Both programs are free!!!!!

Metadata file '.dll' could not be found

In my case, setting the target framework solved the problem:

Equivalent to AssemblyInfo in dotnet core/csproj

I do the following for my .NET Standard 2.0 projects.

Create a Directory.Build.props file (e.g. in the root of your repo) and move the properties to be shared from the .csproj file to this file.

MSBuild will pick it up automatically and apply them to the autogenerated AssemblyInfo.cs.

They also get applied to the nuget package when building one with dotnet pack or via the UI in Visual Studio 2017.

See https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/msbuild/customize-your-build

Example:

<Project>
    <PropertyGroup>
        <Company>Some company</Company>
        <Copyright>Copyright © 2020</Copyright>
        <AssemblyVersion>1.0.0.1</AssemblyVersion>
        <FileVersion>1.0.0.1</FileVersion>
        <Version>1.0.0.1</Version>
        <!-- ... -->

Detect Close windows event by jQuery

The unload() method was deprecated in jQuery version 1.8.

so if you are using versions older than 1.8

then use -

$(window).unload(function(){
alert("Goodbye!");
});

and if you are using 1.8 and higher

then use -

window.onbeforeunload = function() {
    return "Bye now!";
};

hope this will work :-)

How do I add multiple "NOT LIKE '%?%' in the WHERE clause of sqlite3?

If you have any problems with the "not like" query, Consider that you may have a null in the database. In this case, Use:

IFNULL(word, '') NOT LIKE '%something%'

Display alert message and redirect after click on accept

echo "<script>
window.location.href='admin/ahm/panel';
alert('There are no fields to generate a report');
</script>";

Try out this way it works...

First assign the window with the new page where the alert box must be displayed then show the alert box.

The one problem I still have is that sqlite3 is not installed so the command is not recognized.

How to Ignore "Duplicate Key" error in T-SQL (SQL Server)

Well you could solve this with a temp table..

DECLARE @RoleToAdds TABLE
([RoleID] int, [PageID] int)

INSERT INTO @RoleToAdds ([RoleID], [PageID])
    VALUES
    (1, 2),
    (1, 3),
    (1, 4),
    (2, 5)

INSERT INTO [dbo].[RolePages] ([RoleID], [PageID])
    SELECT rta.[RoleID], rta.[PageID] FROM @RoleToAdds rta WHERE NOT EXISTS 
        (SELECT * FROM [RolePages] rp WHERE rp.PageID = rta.PageID AND rp.RoleID = rta.RoleID)

This might not work for big amounts of data but for a few rows it should work!

JNI converting jstring to char *

Thanks Jason Rogers's answer first.

In Android && cpp should be this:

const char *nativeString = env->GetStringUTFChars(javaString, nullptr);

// use your string

env->ReleaseStringUTFChars(javaString, nativeString);

Can fix this errors:

1.error: base operand of '->' has non-pointer type 'JNIEnv {aka _JNIEnv}'

2.error: no matching function for call to '_JNIEnv::GetStringUTFChars(JNIEnv*&, _jstring*&, bool)'

3.error: no matching function for call to '_JNIEnv::ReleaseStringUTFChars(JNIEnv*&, _jstring*&, char const*&)'

4.add "env->DeleteLocalRef(nativeString);" at end.

The paths in the pen do the brunt of the work, the values can be modified to suite whatever desired dimensions.

Using onBlur with JSX and React

There are a few problems here.

1: onBlur expects a callback, and you are calling renderPasswordConfirmError and using the return value, which is null.

2: you need a place to render the error.

3: you need a flag to track "and I validating", which you would set to true on blur. You can set this to false on focus if you want, depending on your desired behavior.

handleBlur: function () {
  this.setState({validating: true});
},
render: function () {
  return <div>
    ...
    <input
        type="password"
        placeholder="Password (confirm)"
        valueLink={this.linkState('password2')}
        onBlur={this.handleBlur}
     />
    ...
    {this.renderPasswordConfirmError()}
  </div>
},
renderPasswordConfirmError: function() {
  if (this.state.validating && this.state.password !== this.state.password2) {
    return (
      <div>
        <label className="error">Please enter the same password again.</label>
      </div>
    );
  }  
  return null;
},

What is java pojo class, java bean, normal class?

POJO = Plain Old Java Object. It has properties, getters and setters for respective properties. It may also override Object.toString() and Object.equals().

Java Beans : See Wiki link.

Normal Class : Any java Class.

Laravel: Using try...catch with DB::transaction()

You could wrapping the transaction over try..catch or even reverse them, here my example code I used to in laravel 5,, if you look deep inside DB:transaction() in Illuminate\Database\Connection that the same like you write manual transaction.

Laravel Transaction

public function transaction(Closure $callback)
    {
        $this->beginTransaction();

        try {
            $result = $callback($this);

            $this->commit();
        }

        catch (Exception $e) {
            $this->rollBack();

            throw $e;
        } catch (Throwable $e) {
            $this->rollBack();

            throw $e;
        }

        return $result;
    }

so you could write your code like this, and handle your exception like throw message back into your form via flash or redirect to another page. REMEMBER return inside closure is returned in transaction() so if you return redirect()->back() it won't redirect immediately, because the it returned at variable which handle the transaction.

Wrap Transaction

$result = DB::transaction(function () use ($request, $message) {
   try{

      // execute query 1
      // execute query 2
      // ..

      return redirect(route('account.article'));

   } catch (\Exception $e) {
       return redirect()->back()->withErrors(['error' => $e->getMessage()]);
    }
 });

// redirect the page
return $result;

then the alternative is throw boolean variable and handle redirect outside transaction function or if your need to retrieve why transaction failed you can get it from $e->getMessage() inside catch(Exception $e){...}

Why use pip over easy_install?

Two reasons, there may be more:

  1. pip provides an uninstall command

  2. if an installation fails in the middle, pip will leave you in a clean state.

How to append text to a text file in C++?

You could use an fstream and open it with the std::ios::app flag. Have a look at the code below and it should clear your head.

...
fstream f("filename.ext", f.out | f.app);
f << "any";
f << "text";
f << "written";
f << "wll";
f << "be append";
...

You can find more information about the open modes here and about fstreams here.

How to check if object has been disposed in C#

If you're not sure whether the object has been disposed or not, you should call the Dispose method itself rather than methods such as Close. While the framework doesn't guarantee that the Dispose method must run without exceptions even if the object had previously been disposed, it's a common pattern and to my knowledge implemented on all disposable objects in the framework.

The typical pattern for Dispose, as per Microsoft:

public void Dispose() 
{
    Dispose(true);

    // Use SupressFinalize in case a subclass
    // of this type implements a finalizer.
    GC.SuppressFinalize(this);      
}

protected virtual void Dispose(bool disposing)
{
    // If you need thread safety, use a lock around these 
    // operations, as well as in your methods that use the resource.
    if (!_disposed)
    {
        if (disposing) {
            if (_resource != null)
                _resource.Dispose();
                Console.WriteLine("Object disposed.");
        }

        // Indicate that the instance has been disposed.
        _resource = null;
        _disposed = true;   
    }
}

Notice the check on _disposed. If you were to call a Dispose method implementing this pattern, you could call Dispose as many times as you wanted without hitting exceptions.

How to count instances of character in SQL Column

If you need to count the char in a string with more then 2 kinds of chars, you can use instead of 'n' - some operator or regex of the chars accept the char you need.

SELECT LEN(REPLACE(col, 'N', ''))

How can you strip non-ASCII characters from a string? (in C#)

Inspired by philcruz's Regular Expression solution, I've made a pure LINQ solution

public static string PureAscii(this string source, char nil = ' ')
{
    var min = '\u0000';
    var max = '\u007F';
    return source.Select(c => c < min ? nil : c > max ? nil : c).ToText();
}

public static string ToText(this IEnumerable<char> source)
{
    var buffer = new StringBuilder();
    foreach (var c in source)
        buffer.Append(c);
    return buffer.ToString();
}

This is untested code.

C# using Sendkey function to send a key to another application

If notepad is already started, you should write:

// import the function in your class
[DllImport ("User32.dll")]
static extern int SetForegroundWindow(IntPtr point);

//...

Process p = Process.GetProcessesByName("notepad").FirstOrDefault();
if (p != null)
{
    IntPtr h = p.MainWindowHandle;
    SetForegroundWindow(h);
    SendKeys.SendWait("k");
}

GetProcessesByName returns an array of processes, so you should get the first one (or find the one you want).

If you want to start notepad and send the key, you should write:

Process p = Process.Start("notepad.exe");
p.WaitForInputIdle();
IntPtr h = p.MainWindowHandle;
SetForegroundWindow(h);
SendKeys.SendWait("k");

The only situation in which the code may not work is when notepad is started as Administrator and your application is not.

How to file split at a line number

file_name=test.log

# set first K lines:
K=1000

# line count (N): 
N=$(wc -l < $file_name)

# length of the bottom file:
L=$(( $N - $K ))

# create the top of file: 
head -n $K $file_name > top_$file_name

# create bottom of file: 
tail -n $L $file_name > bottom_$file_name

Also, on second thought, split will work in your case, since the first split is larger than the second. Split puts the balance of the input into the last split, so

split -l 300000 file_name

will output xaa with 300k lines and xab with 100k lines, for an input with 400k lines.

setState(...): Can only update a mounted or mounting component. This usually means you called setState() on an unmounted component. This is a no-op

I have faced same problem since I have updated the latest react version. Solved like below.

My code was

async componentDidMount() {
  const { default: Component } = await importComponent();
  Nprogress.done();
  this.setState({
    component: <Component {...this.props} />
  });
}

Changed to

componentWillUnmount() {
  this.mounted = false;
}
async componentDidMount() {
  this.mounted = true;
  const { default: Component } = await importComponent();
  if (this.mounted) {
    this.setState({
      component: <Component {...this.props} />
    });
  }
}

Install msi with msiexec in a Specific Directory

In my case all of them did not work and finally it was

msiexec /i "msinamebla.msi" INSTALLFOLDER="C:\test\" /qb

I checked the log.txt as described by ezzadeen and found "INSTALLFOLDER" in there.

How to check if a file exists before creating a new file

Looked around a bit, and the only thing I find is using the open system call. It is the only function I found that allows you to create a file in a way that will fail if it already exists

#include <fcntl.h>
#include <errno.h>

int fd=open(filename, O_WRONLY | O_CREAT | O_EXCL, S_IRUSR | S_IWUSR);
if (fd < 0) {
  /* file exists or otherwise uncreatable
     you might want to check errno*/
}else {
  /* File is open to writing */
}

Note that you have to give permissions since you are creating a file.

This also removes any race conditions there might be

The database cannot be opened because it is version 782. This server supports version 706 and earlier. A downgrade path is not supported

This solution solve my problem: (from: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms239722.aspx)

To permanently attach a database file (.mdf) from the Data Connections node

  1. Open the shortcut menu for Data Connections and choose Add New Connection.

    The Add Connection dialog box appears.

  2. Choose the Change button.

    The Change Data Source dialog box appears.

  3. Select Microsoft SQL Server and choose the OK button.

    The Add Connection dialog box reappears, with Microsoft SQL Server (SqlClient) displayed in the Data source text box.

  4. In the Server Name box, type or browse to the path to the local instance of SQL Server. You can type the following:

    • "." for the default instance on your computer.
    • "(LocalDB)\v11.0" for the default instance of SQL Server Express LocalDB.
    • ".\SQLEXPRESS" for the default instance of SQL Server Express.

    For information about SQL Server Express LocalDB and SQL Server Express, see Local Data Overview.

  5. Select either Use Windows Authentication or Use SQL Server Authentication.

  6. Choose Attach a database file, Browse, and open an existing .mdf file.

  7. Choose the OK button.

    The new database appears in Server Explorer. It will remain connected to SQL Server until you explicitly detach it.

Hide html horizontal but not vertical scrollbar

.combobox_selector ul {
    padding: 0;
    margin: 0;
    list-style: none;
    border:1px solid #CCC;
    height: 200px;
    overflow: auto;
    overflow-x: hidden;
}

sets 200px scrolldown size, overflow-x hides any horizontal scrollbar.

rm: cannot remove: Permission denied

The code says everything:

max@serv$ chmod 777 .

Okay, it doesn't say everything.

In UNIX and Linux, the ability to remove a file is not determined by the access bits of that file. It is determined by the access bits of the directory which contains the file.

Think of it this way -- deleting a file doesn't modify that file. You aren't writing to the file, so why should "w" on the file matter? Deleting a file requires editing the directory that points to the file, so you need "w" on the that directory.

How to call base.base.method()?

The answer (which I know is not what you're looking for) is:

class SpecialDerived : Base
{
    public override void Say()
    {
        Console.WriteLine("Called from Special Derived.");
        base.Say();
    }
}

The truth is, you only have direct interaction with the class you inherit from. Think of that class as a layer - providing as much or as little of it or its parent's functionality as it desires to its derived classes.

EDIT:

Your edit works, but I think I would use something like this:

class Derived : Base
{
    protected bool _useBaseSay = false;

    public override void Say()
    {
        if(this._useBaseSay)
            base.Say();
        else
            Console.WriteLine("Called from Derived");
    }
}

Of course, in a real implementation, you might do something more like this for extensibility and maintainability:

class Derived : Base
{
    protected enum Mode
    {
        Standard,
        BaseFunctionality,
        Verbose
        //etc
    }

    protected Mode Mode
    {
        get; set;
    }

    public override void Say()
    {
        if(this.Mode == Mode.BaseFunctionality)
            base.Say();
        else
            Console.WriteLine("Called from Derived");
    }
}

Then, derived classes can control their parents' state appropriately.

Find the item with maximum occurrences in a list

My (simply) code (three months studying Python):

def more_frequent_item(lst):
    new_lst = []
    times = 0
    for item in lst:
        count_num = lst.count(item)
        new_lst.append(count_num)
        times = max(new_lst)
    key = max(lst, key=lst.count)
    print("In the list: ")
    print(lst)
    print("The most frequent item is " + str(key) + ". Appears " + str(times) + " times in this list.")


more_frequent_item([1, 2, 45, 55, 5, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 5456, 56, 6, 7, 67])

The output will be:

In the list: 
[1, 2, 45, 55, 5, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 5456, 56, 6, 7, 67]
The most frequent item is 4. Appears 6 times in this list.

Escaping double quotes in JavaScript onClick event handler

It needs to be HTML-escaped, not Javascript-escaped. Change \" to &quot;

Find Process Name by its Process ID

Using only "native" Windows utilities, try the following, where "516" is the process ID that you want the image name for:

for /f "delims=," %a in ( 'tasklist /fi "PID eq 516" /nh /fo:csv' ) do ( echo %~a )
for /f %a in ( 'tasklist /fi "PID eq 516" ^| findstr "516"' ) do ( echo %a )

Or you could use wmic (the Windows Management Instrumentation Command-line tool) and get the full path to the executable:

wmic process where processId=516 get name
wmic process where processId=516 get ExecutablePath

Or you could download Microsoft PsTools, or specifically download just the pslist utility, and use PsList:

for /f %a in ( 'pslist 516 ^| findstr "516"' ) do ( echo %a )

Check with jquery if div has overflowing elements

I fixed this by adding another div in the one that overflows. Then you compare the heights of the 2 divs.

<div class="AAAA overflow-hidden" style="height: 20px;" >
    <div class="BBBB" >
        Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
    </div>
</div>

and the js

    if ($('.AAAA').height() < $('.BBBB').height()) {
        console.log('we have overflow')
    } else {
        console.log('NO overflow')
    }

This looks easier...

How can I convert a Unix timestamp to DateTime and vice versa?

The latest version of .NET (v4.6) has added built-in support for Unix time conversions. That includes both to and from Unix time represented by either seconds or milliseconds.

  • Unix time in seconds to UTC DateTimeOffset:

DateTimeOffset dateTimeOffset = DateTimeOffset.FromUnixTimeSeconds(1000);
  • DateTimeOffset to Unix time in seconds:

long unixTimeStampInSeconds = dateTimeOffset.ToUnixTimeSeconds();
  • Unix time in milliseconds to UTC DateTimeOffset:

DateTimeOffset dateTimeOffset = DateTimeOffset.FromUnixTimeMilliseconds(1000000);
  • DateTimeOffset to Unix time in milliseconds:

long unixTimeStampInMilliseconds = dateTimeOffset.ToUnixTimeMilliseconds();

Note: These methods convert to and from a UTC DateTimeOffset. To get a DateTime representation simply use the DateTimeOffset.UtcDateTime or DateTimeOffset.LocalDateTime properties:

DateTime dateTime = dateTimeOffset.UtcDateTime;

How to advance to the next form input when the current input has a value?

you just need to give focus to the next input field (by invoking focus()method on that input element), for example if you're using jQuery this code will simulate the tab key when enter is pressed:

var inputs = $(':input').keypress(function(e){ 
    if (e.which == 13) {
       e.preventDefault();
       var nextInput = inputs.get(inputs.index(this) + 1);
       if (nextInput) {
          nextInput.focus();
       }
    }
});

Convert a python 'type' object to a string

print("My type is %s" % type(someObject)) # the type in python

or...

print("My type is %s" % type(someObject).__name__) # the object's type (the class you defined)

Send json post using php

Beware that file_get_contents solution doesn't close the connection as it should when a server returns Connection: close in the HTTP header.

CURL solution, on the other hand, terminates the connection so the PHP script is not blocked by waiting for a response.

What is the purpose of a self executing function in javascript?

Given your simple question: "In javascript, when would you want to use this:..."

I like @ken_browning and @sean_holding's answers, but here's another use-case that I don't see mentioned:

let red_tree = new Node(10);

(async function () {
    for (let i = 0; i < 1000; i++) {
        await red_tree.insert(i);
    }
})();

console.log('----->red_tree.printInOrder():', red_tree.printInOrder());

where Node.insert is some asynchronous action.

I can't just call await without the async keyword at the declaration of my function, and i don't need a named function for later use, but need to await that insert call or i need some other richer features (who knows?).

Change the encoding of a file in Visual Studio Code

The existing answers show a possible solution for single files or file types. However, you can define the charset standard in VS Code by following this path:

File > Preferences > Settings > Encoding > Choose your option

This will define a character set as default. Besides that, you can always change the encoding in the lower right corner of the editor (blue symbol line) for the current project.

How to fix error "ERROR: Command errored out with exit status 1: python." when trying to install django-heroku using pip

Android: combining text & image on a Button or ImageButton

You can call setBackground() on a Button to set the background of the button.

Any text will appear above the background.

If you are looking for something similar in xml there is: android:background attribute which works the same way.

Value of type 'T' cannot be converted to

If you're checking for explicit types, why are you declaring those variables as T's?

T HowToCast<T>(T t)
{
    if (typeof(T) == typeof(string))
    {
        var newT1 = "some text";
        var newT2 = t;  //this builds but I'm not sure what it does under the hood.
        var newT3 = t.ToString();  //for sure the string you want.
    }

    return t;
}

What's the difference between Visual Studio Community and other, paid versions?

All these answers are partially wrong.

Microsoft has clarified that Community is for ANY USE as long as your revenue is under $1 Million US dollars. That is literally the only difference between Pro and Community. Corporate or free or not, irrelevant.

Even the lack of TFS support is not true. I can verify it is present and works perfectly.

EDIT: Here is an MSDN post regarding the $1M limit: MSDN (hint: it's in the VS 2017 license)

EDIT: Even over the revenue limit, open source is still free.

How to make readonly all inputs in some div in Angular2?

How to create the branch from specific commit in different branch

If you are using this form of the branch command (with start point), it does not matter where your HEAD is.

What you are doing:

git checkout dev
git branch test 07aeec983bfc17c25f0b0a7c1d47da8e35df7af8
  • First, you set your HEAD to the branch dev,

  • Second, you start a new branch on commit 07aeec98. There is no bb.txt at this commit (according to your github repo).

If you want to start a new branch at the location you have just checked out, you can either run branch with no start point:

git branch test

or as other have answered, branch and checkout there in one operation:

git checkout -b test

I think that you might be confused by that fact that 07aeec98 is part of the branch dev. It is true that this commit is an ancestor of dev, its changes are needed to reach the latest commit in dev. However, they are other commits that are needed to reach the latest dev, and these are not necessarily in the history of 07aeec98.

8480e8ae (where you added bb.txt) is for example not in the history of 07aeec98. If you branch from 07aeec98, you won't get the changes introduced by 8480e8ae.

In other words: if you merge branch A and branch B into branch C, then create a new branch on a commit of A, you won't get the changes introduced in B.

Same here, you had two parallel branches master and dev, which you merged in dev. Branching out from a commit of master (older than the merge) won't provide you with the changes of dev.


If you want to permanently integrate new changes from master into your feature branches, you should merge master into them and go on. This will create merge commits in your feature branches, though.

If you have not published your feature branches, you can also rebase them on the updated master: git rebase master featureA. Be prepared to solve possible conflicts.

If you want a workflow where you can work on feature branches free of merge commits and still integrate with newer changes in master, I recommend the following:

  • base every new feature branch on a commit of master
  • create a dev branch on a commit of master
  • when you need to see how your feature branch integrates with new changes in master, merge both master and the feature branch into dev.

Do not commit into dev directly, use it only for merging other branches.

For example, if you are working on feature A and B:

a---b---c---d---e---f---g -master
    \       \
     \       \-x -featureB
      \
       \-j---k -featureA

Merge branches into a dev branch to check if they work well with the new master:

a---b---c---d---e---f---g -master
    \       \            \
     \       \            \--x'---k' -dev
      \       \             /    /   
       \       \-x----------    /    -featureB
        \                      /
         \-j---k--------------- -featureA

You can continue working on your feature branches, and keep merging in new changes from both master and feature branches into dev regularly.

a---b---c---d---e---f---g---h---i----- -master
    \       \            \            \
     \       \            \--x'---k'---i'---l' -dev
      \       \             /    /         /
       \       \-x----------    /         /  -featureB
        \                      /         /  
         \-j---k-----------------l------ -featureA

When it is time to integrate the new features, merge the feature branches (not dev!) into master.

Make multiple-select to adjust its height to fit options without scroll bar

Using the size attribute is the most practical solution, however there are quirks when it is applied to select elements with only two or three options.

  • Setting the size attribute value to "0" or "1" will mostly render a default select element (dropdown).
  • Setting the size attribute to a value greater than "1" will mostly render a selection list with a height capable of displaying at least four items. This also applies to lists with only two or three items, leading to unintended white-space.

Simple JavaScript can be used to set the size attribute to the correct value automatically, e.g. see this fiddle.

$(function() {
    $("#autoheight").attr("size", parseInt($("#autoheight option").length)); 
});

As mentioned above, this solution does not solve the issue when there are only two or three options.

command to remove row from a data frame

eldNew <- eld[-14,]

See ?"[" for a start ...

For ‘[’-indexing only: ‘i’, ‘j’, ‘...’ can be logical vectors, indicating elements/slices to select. Such vectors are recycled if necessary to match the corresponding extent. ‘i’, ‘j’, ‘...’ can also be negative integers, indicating elements/slices to leave out of the selection.

(emphasis added)

Java integer list

code that works, but output is:

    myCoords.add(20);
    myCoords.add(30);
    myCoords.add(40);

How do I disable directory browsing?

To complete @GauravKachhadiya's answer :

IndexIgnore *.jpg

means "hide only .jpg extension files from indexing.

IndexIgnore directive uses wildcard expression to match against directories and files.

  • a star character , it matches any charactes in a string ,eg : foo or foo.extension, in the following example, we are going to turn off the directory listing, no files or dirs will appear in the index :

    IndexIgnore *

Or if you want to hide spacific files , in the directory listing, then we can use

IndexIgnore *.php

*.php => matches a string that starts with any char and ends with .php

The example above hides all files that end with .php

Junit - run set up method once

JUnit 5 now has a @BeforeAll annotation:

Denotes that the annotated method should be executed before all @Test methods in the current class or class hierarchy; analogous to JUnit 4’s @BeforeClass. Such methods must be static.

The lifecycle annotations of JUnit 5 seem to have finally gotten it right! You can guess which annotations available without even looking (e.g. @BeforeEach @AfterAll)

Why do you have to link the math library in C?

If I put stdlib.h or stdio.h, I don't have to link those but I have to link when I compile:

stdlib.h, stdio.h are the header files. You include them for your convenience. They only forecast what symbols will become available if you link in the proper library. The implementations are in the library files, that's where the functions really live.

Including math.h is only the first step to gaining access to all the math functions.

Also, you don't have to link against libm if you don't use it's functions, even if you do a #include <math.h> which is only an informational step for you, for the compiler about the symbols.

stdlib.h, stdio.h refer to functions available in libc, which happens to be always linked in so that the user doesn't have to do it himself.

Doctrine2: Best way to handle many-to-many with extra columns in reference table

From $album->getTrackList() you will alwas get "AlbumTrackReference" entities back, so what about adding methods from the Track and proxy?

class AlbumTrackReference
{
    public function getTitle()
    {
        return $this->getTrack()->getTitle();
    }

    public function getDuration()
    {
        return $this->getTrack()->getDuration();
    }
}

This way your loop simplifies considerably, aswell as all other code related to looping the tracks of an album, since all methods are just proxied inside AlbumTrakcReference:

foreach ($album->getTracklist() as $track) {
    echo sprintf("\t#%d - %-20s (%s) %s\n", 
        $track->getPosition(),
        $track->getTitle(),
        $track->getDuration()->format('H:i:s'),
        $track->isPromoted() ? ' - PROMOTED!' : ''
    );
}

Btw You should rename the AlbumTrackReference (for example "AlbumTrack"). It is clearly not only a reference, but contains additional logic. Since there are probably also Tracks that are not connected to an album but just available through a promo-cd or something this allows for a cleaner separation also.

Bluetooth pairing without user confirmation

Yes it is possible in theory as defined by the specification. However there is no practical implementation as yet that would allow this.

Refer: NFC Forum Connection Handover Technical Specification http://www.nfc-forum.org/specs/spec_list/

Quoting from the specification regarding the security - "The Handover Protocol requires transmission of network access data and credentials (the carrier configuration data) to allow one device to connect to a wireless network provided by another device. Because of the close proximity needed for communication between NFC Devices and Tags, eavesdropping of carrier configuration data is difficult, but not impossible, without recognition by the legitimate owner of the devices. Transmission of carrier configuration data to devices that can be brought to close proximity is deemed legitimate within the scope of this specification."

What's the best practice for primary keys in tables?

I always use an autonumber or identity field.

I worked for a client who had used SSN as a primary key and then because of HIPAA regulations was forced to change to a "MemberID" and it caused a ton of problems when updating the foreign keys in related tables. Sticking to a consistent standard of an identity column has helped me avoid a similar problem in all of my projects.

How to take screenshot of a div with JavaScript?

If you wish to have "Save as" dialog, just pass image into php script, which adds appropriate headers

Example "all-in-one" script script.php

    if(preg_match('#^data:image/(.*);base64,(.*)$#s', $image, $match)){
        $base64 = $match[2];
        $imageBody = base64_decode($base64);
        $imageFormat = $match[1];

        header('Content-type: application/octet-stream');
        header("Pragma: public");
        header("Expires: 0");
        header("Cache-Control: must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0");
        header("Cache-Control: private", false); // required for certain browsers
        header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=\"file.".$imageFormat."\";" ); //png is default for toDataURL
        header("Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary");
        header("Content-Length: ".strlen($imageBody));
        echo $imageBody;
    }
    exit();

Is there a function to split a string in PL/SQL?

You can use regexp_substr(). Example:

create or replace type splitTable_Type is table of varchar2(100);

declare
    l_split_table splitTable_Type;
begin
  select
      regexp_substr('SMITH,ALLEN,WARD,JONES','[^,]+', 1, level)
  bulk collect into
      l_split_table
  from dual
  connect by
      regexp_substr('SMITH,ALLEN,WARD,JONES', '[^,]+', 1, level) is not null;
end;

The query iterates through the comma separated string, searches for the comma (,) and then splits the string by treating the comma as delimiter. It returns the string as a row, whenever it hits a delimiter.

level in statement regexp_substr('SMITH,ALLEN,WARD,JONES','[^,]+', 1, level) refers to a pseudocolumn in Oracle which is used in a hierarchical query to identify the hierarchy level in numeric format: level in connect by

Regular expression negative lookahead

If you revise your regular expression like this:

drupal-6.14/(?=sites(?!/all|/default)).*
             ^^

...then it will match all inputs that contain drupal-6.14/ followed by sites followed by anything other than /all or /default. For example:

drupal-6.14/sites/foo
drupal-6.14/sites/bar
drupal-6.14/sitesfoo42
drupal-6.14/sitesall

Changing ?= to ?! to match your original regex simply negates those matches:

drupal-6.14/(?!sites(?!/all|/default)).*
             ^^

So, this simply means that drupal-6.14/ now cannot be followed by sites followed by anything other than /all or /default. So now, these inputs will satisfy the regex:

drupal-6.14/sites/all
drupal-6.14/sites/default
drupal-6.14/sites/all42

But, what may not be obvious from some of the other answers (and possibly your question) is that your regex will also permit other inputs where drupal-6.14/ is followed by anything other than sites as well. For example:

drupal-6.14/foo
drupal-6.14/xsites

Conclusion: So, your regex basically says to include all subdirectories of drupal-6.14 except those subdirectories of sites whose name begins with anything other than all or default.

Declaring a boolean in JavaScript using just var

Types are dependent to your initialization:

var IsLoggedIn1 = "true"; //string
var IsLoggedIn2 = 1; //integer
var IsLoggedIn3 = true; //bool

But take a look at this example:

var IsLoggedIn1 = "true"; //string
IsLoggedIn1 = true; //now your variable is a boolean

Your variables' type depends on the assigned value in JavaScript.

How to get height of <div> in px dimension

Use height():

var result = $("#myDiv").height();
alert(result);

This will give you the unit-less computed height in pixels. "px" will be stripped from the result. I.e. if the height is 400px, the result will be 400, but the result will be in pixels.

If you want to do it without jQuery, you can use plain JavaScript:

var result = document.getElementById("myDiv").offsetHeight;

Linker command failed with exit code 1 - duplicate symbol __TMRbBp

If you're using Ionic and the Push and Console plugins that's the problem. Remove the cordova console plugin (which is deprecated) and the error will disappear.

The linker error is saying that a library is duplicated which is, in fact, true because the console plugin is already in cordova-ios 4.5+

It took me a couple of hours to figure this out!

How to convert object to Dictionary<TKey, TValue> in C#?

You can create a generic extension method and then use it on the object like:

public static class Extensions
{
    public static KeyValuePair<TKey, TValue> ToKeyValuePair<TKey, TValue>(this Object obj)
    {
        // if obj is null throws exception
        Contract.Requires(obj != null);

        // gets the type of the obj parameter
        var type = obj.GetType();
        // checks if obj is of type KeyValuePair
        if (type.IsGenericType && type == typeof(KeyValuePair<TKey, TValue>))
        {

            return new KeyValuePair<TKey, TValue>(
                                                    (TKey)type.GetProperty("Key").GetValue(obj, null), 
                                                    (TValue)type.GetProperty("Value").GetValue(obj, null)
                                                 );

        }
        // if obj type does not match KeyValuePair throw exception
        throw new ArgumentException($"obj argument must be of type KeyValuePair<{typeof(TKey).FullName},{typeof(TValue).FullName}>");   
 }

and usage would be like:

KeyValuePair<string,long> kvp = obj.ToKeyValuePair<string,long>();

How to remove multiple indexes from a list at the same time?

Debug JavaScript in Eclipse

Why can't overriding methods throw exceptions broader than the overridden method?

Let us take an interview Question. There is a method that throws NullPointerException in the superclass. Can we override it with a method that throws RuntimeException?

To answer this question, let us know what is an Unchecked and Checked exception.

  1. Checked exceptions must be explicitly caught or propagated as described in Basic try-catch-finally Exception Handling. Unchecked exceptions do not have this requirement. They don't have to be caught or declared thrown.

  2. Checked exceptions in Java extend the java.lang.Exception class. Unchecked exceptions extend the java.lang.RuntimeException.

public class NullPointerException extends RuntimeException

Unchecked exceptions extend the java.lang.RuntimeException. Thst's why NullPointerException is an Uncheked exception.

Let's take an example: Example 1 :

    public class Parent {
       public void name()  throws NullPointerException {
           System.out.println(" this is parent");
       }
}

public class Child  extends Parent{
     public  void name() throws RuntimeException{
             System.out.println(" child ");
     }

     public static void main(String[] args) {
        Parent parent  = new Child();
        parent.name();// output => child
    }
}

The program will compile successfully. Example 2:

    public class Parent {
       public void name()  throws RuntimeException {
           System.out.println(" this is parent");
       }
}

public class Child  extends Parent{
     public  void name() throws  NullPointerException {
             System.out.println(" child ");
     }

     public static void main(String[] args) {
        Parent parent  = new Child();
        parent.name();// output => child
    }
}

The program will also compile successfully. Therefore it is evident, that nothing happens in case of Unchecked exceptions. Now, let's take a look what happens in case of Checked exceptions. Example 3: When base class and child class both throws a checked exception

    public class Parent {
       public void name()  throws IOException {
           System.out.println(" this is parent");
       }
}
public class Child  extends Parent{
     public  void name() throws IOException{
             System.out.println(" child ");
     }

     public static void main(String[] args) {
        Parent parent  = new Child();

        try {
            parent.name();// output=> child
        }catch( Exception e) {
            System.out.println(e);
        }

    }
}

The program will compile successfully. Example 4: When child class method is throwing border checked exception compared to the same method of base class.

import java.io.IOException;

public class Parent {
       public void name()  throws IOException {
           System.out.println(" this is parent");
       }
}
public class Child  extends Parent{
     public  void name() throws Exception{ // broader exception
             System.out.println(" child ");
     }

     public static void main(String[] args) {
        Parent parent  = new Child();

        try {
            parent.name();//output=> Compilation failure
        }catch( Exception e) {
            System.out.println(e);
        }

    }
}

The program will fail to compile. So, we have to be careful when we are using Checked exceptions.

Error: Failed to execute 'appendChild' on 'Node': parameter 1 is not of type 'Node'

In my case, there was no string on which i was calling appendChild, the object i was passing on appendChild argument was wrong, it was an array and i had pass an element object, so i used divel.appendChild(childel[0]) instead of divel.appendChild(childel) and it worked. Hope it help someone.

How to set HTTP header to UTF-8 using PHP which is valid in W3C validator?

This is a problem with your web server sending out an HTTP header that does not match the one you define. For instructions on how to make the server send the correct headers, see this page.

Otherwise, you can also use PHP to modify the headers, but this has to be done before outputting any text using this code:

header('Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8');

More information on how to send out headers using PHP can be found in the documentation for the header function.

JDBC ODBC Driver Connection

As mentioned in the comments to the question, the JDBC-ODBC Bridge is - as the name indicates - only a mechanism for the JDBC layer to "talk to" the ODBC layer. Even if you had a JDBC-ODBC Bridge on your Mac you would also need to have

  • an implementation of ODBC itself, and
  • an appropriate ODBC driver for the target database (ACE/Jet, a.k.a. "Access")

So, for most people, using JDBC-ODBC Bridge technology to manipulate ACE/Jet ("Access") databases is really a practical option only under Windows. It is also important to note that the JDBC-ODBC Bridge will be has been removed in Java 8 (ref: here).

There are other ways of manipulating ACE/Jet databases from Java, such as UCanAccess and Jackcess. Both of these are pure Java implementations so they work on non-Windows platforms. For details on how to use UCanAccess see

Adding n hours to a date in Java?

This is another piece of code when your Date object is in Datetime format. The beauty of this code is, If you give more number of hours the date will also update accordingly.

    String myString =  "09:00 12/12/2014";
    SimpleDateFormat simpleDateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("HH:mm dd/MM/yyyy");
    Date myDateTime = null;

    //Parse your string to SimpleDateFormat
    try
      {
        myDateTime = simpleDateFormat.parse(myString);
      }
    catch (ParseException e)
      {
         e.printStackTrace();
      }
    System.out.println("This is the Actual Date:"+myDateTime);
    Calendar cal = new GregorianCalendar();
    cal.setTime(myDateTime);

    //Adding 21 Hours to your Date
    cal.add(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY, 21);
    System.out.println("This is Hours Added Date:"+cal.getTime());

Here is the Output:

    This is the Actual Date:Fri Dec 12 09:00:00 EST 2014
    This is Hours Added Date:Sat Dec 13 06:00:00 EST 2014

REST API using POST instead of GET

In REST, each HTTP verbs has its place and meaning.

For example,

  • GET is to get the 'resource(s)' that is pointed to in the URL.

  • POST is to instructure the backend to 'create' a resource of the 'type' pointed to in the URL. You can supplement the POST operation with parameters or additional data in the body of the POST call.

In you case, since you are interested in 'getting' the info using query, thus it should be a GET operation instead of a POST operation.

This wiki may help to further clarify things.

Hope this help!

How do I pass a list as a parameter in a stored procedure?

I solved this problem through the following:

  1. In C # I built a String variable.

string userId="";

  1. I put my list's item in this variable. I separated the ','.

for example: in C#

userId= "5,44,72,81,126";

and Send to SQL-Server

 SqlParameter param = cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@user_id_list",userId);
  1. I Create Separated Function in SQL-server For Convert my Received List (that it's type is NVARCHAR(Max)) to Table.
CREATE FUNCTION dbo.SplitInts  
(  
   @List      VARCHAR(MAX),  
   @Delimiter VARCHAR(255)  
)  
RETURNS TABLE  
AS  
  RETURN ( SELECT Item = CONVERT(INT, Item) FROM  
      ( SELECT Item = x.i.value('(./text())[1]', 'varchar(max)')  
        FROM ( SELECT [XML] = CONVERT(XML, '<i>'  
        + REPLACE(@List, @Delimiter, '</i><i>') + '</i>').query('.')  
          ) AS a CROSS APPLY [XML].nodes('i') AS x(i) ) AS y  
      WHERE Item IS NOT NULL  
  );
  1. In the main Store Procedure, using the command below, I use the entry list.

SELECT user_id = Item FROM dbo.SplitInts(@user_id_list, ',');

Converting an int to std::string

If you cannot use std::to_string from C++11, you can write it as it is defined on cppreference.com:

std::string to_string( int value ) Converts a signed decimal integer to a string with the same content as what std::sprintf(buf, "%d", value) would produce for sufficiently large buf.

Implementation

#include <cstdio>
#include <string>
#include <cassert>

std::string to_string( int x ) {
  int length = snprintf( NULL, 0, "%d", x );
  assert( length >= 0 );
  char* buf = new char[length + 1];
  snprintf( buf, length + 1, "%d", x );
  std::string str( buf );
  delete[] buf;
  return str;
}

You can do more with it. Just use "%g" to convert float or double to string, use "%x" to convert int to hex representation, and so on.

JPA EntityManager: Why use persist() over merge()?

Another observation:

merge() will only care about an auto-generated id(tested on IDENTITY and SEQUENCE) when a record with such an id already exists in your table. In that case merge() will try to update the record. If, however, an id is absent or is not matching any existing records, merge() will completely ignore it and ask a db to allocate a new one. This is sometimes a source of a lot of bugs. Do not use merge() to force an id for a new record.

persist() on the other hand will never let you even pass an id to it. It will fail immediately. In my case, it's:

Caused by: org.hibernate.PersistentObjectException: detached entity passed to persist

hibernate-jpa javadoc has a hint:

Throws: javax.persistence.EntityExistsException - if the entity already exists. (If the entity already exists, the EntityExistsException may be thrown when the persist operation is invoked, or the EntityExistsException or another PersistenceException may be thrown at flush or commit time.)

ASP.NET MVC: Html.EditorFor and multi-line text boxes

in your view, instead of:

@Html.EditorFor(model => model.Comments[0].Comment)

just use:

@Html.TextAreaFor(model => model.Comments[0].Comment, 5, 1, null)

Stopping an Android app from console

The clean way of stopping the app is:

adb shell am force-stop com.my.app.package

This way you don't have to figure out the process ID.

Ignore invalid self-signed ssl certificate in node.js with https.request?

So, my company just switched to Node.js v12.x. I was using NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED, and it stopped working. After some digging, I started using NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS=A_FILE_IN_OUR_PROJECT that has a PEM format of our self signed cert and all my scripts are working again.

So, if your project has self signed certs, perhaps this env var will help you.

Post-increment and Pre-increment concept?

Post increment(a++)

If int b = a++,then this means

int b = a;

a = a+1;

Here we add 1 to the value. The value is returned before the increment is made,

For eg a = 1; b = a++;

Then b=1 and a=2

Pre-increment (++a)

If int b = ++a; then this means

a=a+1;

int b=a ;

Pre-increment: This will add 1 to the main value. The value will be returned after the increment is made, For a = 1; b = ++a; Then b=2 and a=2.

Append data to a POST NSURLRequest

The example code above was really helpful to me, however (as has been hinted at above), I think you need to use NSMutableURLRequest rather than NSURLRequest. In its current form, I couldn't get it to respond to the setHTTPMethod call. Changing the type fixed things right up.

Android: Remove all the previous activities from the back stack

finishAffinity() added in API 16. Use ActivityCompat.finishAffinity() in previous versions. When you will launch any activity using intent and finish the current activity. Now use ActivityCompat.finishAffinity() instead finish(). it will finish all stacked activity below current activity. It works fine for me.

How can I download HTML source in C#

You can get it with:

var html = new System.Net.WebClient().DownloadString(siteUrl)

What causes a Python segmentation fault?

Segmentation fault is a generic one, there are many possible reasons for this:

  • Low memory
  • Faulty Ram memory
  • Fetching a huge data set from the db using a query (if the size of fetched data is more than swap mem)
  • wrong query / buggy code
  • having long loop (multiple recursion)

How do you create a yes/no boolean field in SQL server?

You can use the BIT field

To create new table:

CREATE TABLE Tb_Table1
(
ID              INT,
BitColumn       BIT DEFAULT 1
)

Adding Column in existing Table:

ALTER TABLE Tb_Table1 ADD BitColumn  BIT DEFAULT 1

To Insert record:

INSERT Tb_Table1 VALUES(11,0)

ORA-12170: TNS:Connect timeout occurred

Check the FIREWALL, to allow the connection at the server from your client. By allowing Domain network or create rule.

PHP: get the value of TEXTBOX then pass it to a VARIABLE

In testing2.php use the following code to get the name:

if ( ! empty($_POST['name'])){
    $name = $_POST['name']);
}

When you create the next page, use the value of $name to prefill the form field:

Name: <input type="text" name="name" id="name" value="<?php echo $name; ?>"><br/>

However, before doing that, be sure to use regular expressions to verify that the $name only contains valid characters, such as:

$pattern =  '/^[0-9A-Za-zÁ-Úá-úàÀÜü]+$/';//integers & letters
if (preg_match($pattern, $name) == 1){
    //continue
} else {
    //reload form with error message
}

Twitter Bootstrap Button Text Word Wrap

You can simply add this class.

.btn {
    white-space:normal !important;

}

Assert equals between 2 Lists in Junit

Don't transform to string and compare. This is not good for perfomance. In the junit, inside Corematchers, there's a matcher for this => hasItems

List<Integer> yourList = Arrays.asList(1,2,3,4)    
assertThat(yourList, CoreMatchers.hasItems(1,2,3,4,5));

This is the better way that I know of to check elements in a list.

Authenticating in PHP using LDAP through Active Directory

PHP has libraries: http://ca.php.net/ldap

PEAR also has a number of packages: http://pear.php.net/search.php?q=ldap&in=packages&x=0&y=0

I haven't used either, but I was going to at one point and they seemed like they should work.

Update Fragment from ViewPager

i had 4 Fragments in the ViewPager, but i wanted to update just one Fragment "FavoriteFragment" at the position 0 of the viewPager, every time the user click on this fragment. but none of the codes above helped me reload just the one Fragment i want. so i tried this and it works for me:

in my FavoriteFragment i overrided onResume()

@Override
    public void onResume() {
        super.onResume();
        updateUI(); // code to update the UI in the fragment
    }

in the Activity hosting the viewPager override addOnPageChangeListener() and add this code

mViewPager.addOnPageChangeListener(new ViewPager.SimpleOnPageChangeListener() {
            @Override
            public void onPageSelected(int position) {
                super.onPageSelected(position);

                if(position == 0) { // 0 = the first fragment in the ViewPager, in this case, the fragment i want to refresh its UI
                    FavoritesFragment fragment = (FavoritesFragment) mViewPager.getAdapter().instantiateItem(mViewPager, position); 
                    fragment.onResume(); // here i call the onResume of the fragment, where i have the method updateUI() to update its UI
                    mViewPager.getAdapter().notifyDataSetChanged();
                }
            }
        });

and it works perfect for me, to refresh/reload just the one fragment i want.

How to update npm

NPM was returning the old version after running $ sudo npm install npm -g.

Restarting the terminal (i.e. close and open again) fixed the issue for me and $ npm --version began returning the expected version.

* @Rimian mentions the need to reload the terminal in a comment of another answer.

Mac OS X and multiple Java versions

I find this Java version manager called Jabba recently and the usage is very similar to version managers of other languages like rvm(ruby), nvm(node), pyenv(python), etc. Also it's cross platform so definitely it can be used on Mac.

After installation, it will create a dir in ~/.jabba to put all the Java versions you install. It "Supports installation of Oracle JDK (default) / Server JRE, Zulu OpenJDK (since 0.3.0), IBM SDK, Java Technology Edition (since 0.6.0) and from custom URLs.".

Basic usage is listed on their Github. A quick summary to start:

curl -sL https://github.com/shyiko/jabba/raw/master/install.sh | bash && . ~/.jabba/jabba.sh

# install Oracle JDK
jabba install 1.8 # "jabba use 1.8" will be called automatically  
jabba install 1.7 # "jabba use 1.7" will be called automatically 

# list all installed JDK's
jabba ls

# switch to a different version of JDK
jabba use 1.8

iOS start Background Thread

Enable NSZombieEnabled to know which object is being released and then accessed. Then check if the getResultSetFromDB: has anything to do with that. Also check if docids has anything inside and if it is being retained.

This way you can be sure there is nothing wrong.

Updating a local repository with changes from a GitHub repository

This should work for every default repo:

git pull origin master

If your default branch is different than master, you will need to specify the branch name:

Is there a better way to refresh WebView?

How do I add a Font Awesome icon to input field?

For those, who are wondering how to get FontAwesome icons to drupal input, you have to decode_entities first like so:

$form['submit'] = array(
'#type' => 'submit',
'#value' => decode_entities('&#xf014;'), // code for FontAwesome trash icon
// etc.
);

Calculate difference between two dates (number of days)?

For beginners like me that will stumble upon this tiny problem, in a simple line, with sample conversion to int:

int totalDays = Convert.ToInt32((DateTime.UtcNow.Date - myDateTime.Date).TotalDays);

This calculates the total days from today (DateTime.UtcNow.Date) to a desired date (myDateTime.Date).

If myDateTime is yesterday, or older date than today, this will give a positive (+) integer result.

On the other side, if the myDateTime is tomorrow or on the future date, this will give a negative (-) integer result due to rules of addition.

Happy coding! ^_^

Exception.Message vs Exception.ToString()

Exception.Message contains only the message (doh) associated with the exception. Example:

Object reference not set to an instance of an object

The Exception.ToString() method will give a much more verbose output, containing the exception type, the message (from before), a stack trace, and all of these things again for nested/inner exceptions. More precisely, the method returns the following:

ToString returns a representation of the current exception that is intended to be understood by humans. Where the exception contains culture-sensitive data, the string representation returned by ToString is required to take into account the current system culture. Although there are no exact requirements for the format of the returned string, it should attempt to reflect the value of the object as perceived by the user.

The default implementation of ToString obtains the name of the class that threw the current exception, the message, the result of calling ToString on the inner exception, and the result of calling Environment.StackTrace. If any of these members is a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic), its value is not included in the returned string.

If there is no error message or if it is an empty string (""), then no error message is returned. The name of the inner exception and the stack trace are returned only if they are not a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).

HTML5 Canvas and Anti-aliasing

I haven't needed to turn on anti-alias because it's on by default but I have needed to turn it off. And if it can be turned off it can also be turned on.

ctx.imageSmoothingEnabled = true;

I usually shut it off when I'm working on my canvas rpg so when I zoom in the images don't look blurry.

How do I authenticate a WebClient request?

What kind of authentication are you using? If it's Forms authentication, then at best, you'll have to find the .ASPXAUTH cookie and pass it in the WebClient request.

At worst, it won't work.

How to split a string literal across multiple lines in C / Objective-C?

One more solution for the pile, change your .m file to .mm so that it becomes Objective-C++ and use C++ raw literals, like this:

const char *sql_query = R"(SELECT word_id
                           FROM table1, table2
                           WHERE table2.word_id = table1.word_id
                           ORDER BY table1.word ASC)";

Raw literals ignore everything until the termination sequence, which in the default case is parenthesis-quote.

If the parenthesis-quote sequence has to appear in the string somewhere, you can easily specify a custom delimiter too, like this:

const char *sql_query = R"T3RM!N8(
                                  SELECT word_id
                                  FROM table1, table2
                                  WHERE table2.word_id = table1.word_id
                                  ORDER BY table1.word ASC
                         )T3RM!N8";

What causes imported Maven project in Eclipse to use Java 1.5 instead of Java 1.6 by default and how can I ensure it doesn't?

Project specific settings

One more place where this can go wrong is in the project specific settings, in Eclipse.

  1. project properties: click your project and one of the following:

    • Alt + Enter
    • Menu > Project > Properties
    • right click your project > project properties (last item in the menu)
  2. click on "Java Compiler"

  3. Uncheck "Enable project specific settings" (or change them all by hand).

Because of client requirements we had them enabled to keep our projects in 1.6. When it was needed to upgrade to 1.7, we had a hard time because we needed to change the java version all over the place:

  • project POM
  • Eclipse Workspace default
  • project specific settings
  • executing virtual machine (1.6 was used for everything)

What is the non-jQuery equivalent of '$(document).ready()'?

In plain vanilla JavaScript, with no libraries? It's an error. $ is simply an identifier, and is undefined unless you define it.

jQuery defines $ as it's own "everything object" (also known as jQuery so you can use it without conflicting with other libraries). If you're not using jQuery (or some other library that defines it), then $ will not be defined.

Or are you asking what the equivalent is in plain JavaScript? In that case, you probably want window.onload, which isn't exactly equivalent, but is the quickest and easiest way to get close to the same effect in vanilla JavaScript.

How can I set the background color of <option> in a <select> element?

Just like normal background-color: #f0f

You just need a way to target it, eg: <option id="myPinkOption">blah</option>

How to send data in request body with a GET when using jQuery $.ajax()

You can send your data like the "POST" request through the "HEADERS".

Something like this:

$.ajax({
   url: "htttp://api.com/entity/list($body)",
   type: "GET",
   headers: ['id1':1, 'id2':2, 'id3':3],
   data: "",
   contentType: "text/plain",
   dataType: "json",
   success: onSuccess,
   error: onError
});

Add custom message to thrown exception while maintaining stack trace in Java

Using other keys for the waitKey() function of opencv

As to me, the below code does't work, when it runs,the image will step to the next quickly without your press:

import cv2
img = cv2.imread('sof.jpg') # load a dummy image
while(1):
    cv2.imshow('img',img)
    k = cv2.waitKey(33)
    if k==27:    # Esc key to stop
        break
    elif k==-1:  # normally -1 returned,so don't print it
        continue
    else:
        print k # else print its value

But this works:

def test_wait_key():
    lst_img_path = [
        '/home/xy/yy_face_head/face_det_test/111.png',
        '/home/xy/yy_face_head/face_det_test/222.png'
        #.....more path ...
    ]

    for f_path in lst_img_path:
        img = cv2.imread(f_path)
        cv2.imshow('tmp', img)
        c = cv2.waitKey(0) % 256

        if c == ord('a'):
            print "pressed a"
        else:
            print 'you press %s' % chr(c)

Output as below:

how to add value to a tuple?

As other people have answered, tuples in python are immutable and the only way to 'modify' one is to create a new one with the appended elements included.

But the best solution is a list. When whatever function or method that requires a tuple needs to be called, create a tuple by using tuple(list).

How to fix: "UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte"

In some cases, when you check your default encoding (print sys.getdefaultencoding()), it returns that you are using ASCII. If you change to UTF-8, it doesn't work, depending on the content of your variable. I found another way:

import sys
reload(sys)  
sys.setdefaultencoding('Cp1252')

Coding Conventions - Naming Enums

As already stated, enum instances should be uppercase according to the docs on the Oracle website (http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/java/javaOO/enum.html).

However, while looking through a JavaEE7 tutorial on the Oracle website (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javaee/downloads/index.html), I stumbled across the "Duke's bookstore" tutorial and in a class (tutorial\examples\case-studies\dukes-bookstore\src\main\java\javaeetutorial\dukesbookstore\components\AreaComponent.java), I found the following enum definition:

private enum PropertyKeys {
    alt, coords, shape, targetImage;
}

According to the conventions, it should have looked like:

public enum PropertyKeys {
    ALT("alt"), COORDS("coords"), SHAPE("shape"), TARGET_IMAGE("targetImage");

    private final String val;

    private PropertyKeys(String val) {
        this.val = val;
    }

    @Override
    public String toString() {
        return val;
    }
}

So it seems even the guys at Oracle sometimes trade convention with convenience.

Angular 4 HttpClient Query Parameters

You can pass it like this

let param: any = {'userId': 2};
this.http.get(`${ApiUrl}`, {params: param})

Python 3 sort a dict by its values

You can sort by values in reverse order (largest to smallest) using a dictionary comprehension:

{k: d[k] for k in sorted(d, key=d.get, reverse=True)}
# {'b': 4, 'a': 3, 'c': 2, 'd': 1}

If you want to sort by values in ascending order (smallest to largest)

{k: d[k] for k in sorted(d, key=d.get)}
# {'d': 1, 'c': 2, 'a': 3, 'b': 4}

If you want to sort by the keys in ascending order

{k: d[k] for k in sorted(d)}
# {'a': 3, 'b': 4, 'c': 2, 'd': 1}

This works on CPython 3.6+ and any implementation of Python 3.7+ because dictionaries keep insertion order.

Assign a class name to <img> tag instead of write it in css file?

It's just more versatile if you give it a class name as the style you specify will only apply to that class name. But if you exactly know every .column img and want to style that in the same way, there's no reason why you can't use that selector.

The performance difference, if any, is negligible these days.

Checking if a collection is null or empty in Groovy

!members.find()

I think now the best way to solve this issue is code above. It works since Groovy 1.8.1 http://docs.groovy-lang.org/docs/next/html/groovy-jdk/java/util/Collection.html#find(). Examples:

def lst1 = []
assert !lst1.find()

def lst2 = [null]
assert !lst2.find()

def lst3 = [null,2,null]
assert lst3.find()

def lst4 = [null,null,null]
assert !lst4.find()

def lst5 = [null, 0, 0.0, false, '', [], 42, 43]
assert lst5.find() == 42

def lst6 = null; 
assert !lst6.find()

What is the difference between decodeURIComponent and decodeURI?

js> s = "http://www.example.com/string with + and ? and & and spaces";
http://www.example.com/string with + and ? and & and spaces
js> encodeURI(s)
http://www.example.com/string%20with%20+%20and%20?%20and%20&%20and%20spaces
js> encodeURIComponent(s)
http%3A%2F%2Fwww.example.com%2Fstring%20with%20%2B%20and%20%3F%20and%20%26%20and%20spaces

Looks like encodeURI produces a "safe" URI by encoding spaces and some other (e.g. nonprintable) characters, whereas encodeURIComponent additionally encodes the colon and slash and plus characters, and is meant to be used in query strings. The encoding of + and ? and & is of particular importance here, as these are special chars in query strings.

Using Mysql in the command line in osx - command not found?

So there are few places where terminal looks for commands. This places are stored in your $PATH variable. Think of it as a global variable where terminal iterates over to look up for any command. This are usually binaries look how /bin folder is usually referenced.

/bin folder has lots of executable files inside it. Turns out this are command. This different folder locations are stored inside one Global variable i.e. $PATH separated by :

Now usually programs upon installation takes care of updating PATH & telling your terminal that hey i can be all commands inside my bin folder.

Turns out MySql doesn't do it upon install so we manually have to do it.

We do it by following command,

export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/mysql/bin

If you break it down, export is self explanatory. Think of it as an assignment. So export a variable PATH with value old $PATH concat with new bin i.e. /usr/local/mysql/bin

This way after executing it all the commands inside /usr/local/mysql/bin are available to us.

There is a small catch here. Think of one terminal window as one instance of program and maybe something like $PATH is class variable ( maybe ). Note this is pure assumption. So upon close we lose the new assignment. And if we reopen terminal we won't have access to our command again because last when we exported, it was stored in primary memory which is volatile.

Now we need to have our mysql binaries exported every-time we use terminal. So we have to persist concat in our path.

You might be aware that our terminal using something called dotfiles to load configuration on terminal initialisation. I like to think of it's as sets of thing passed to constructer every-time a new instance of terminal is created ( Again an assumption but close to what it might be doing ). So yes by now you get the point what we are going todo.

.bash_profile is one of the primary known dotfile.

So in following command,

echo 'export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/mysql/bin' >> ~/.bash_profile

What we are doing is saving result of echo i.e. output string to ~/.bash_profile

So now as we noted above every-time we open terminal or instance of terminal our dotfiles are loaded. So .bash_profile is loaded respectively and export that we appended above is run & thus a our global $PATH gets updated and we get all the commands inside /usr/local/mysql/bin.

P.s.

if you are not running first command export directly but just running second in order to persist it? Than for current running instance of terminal you have to,

source ~/.bash_profile

This tells our terminal to reload that particular file.

AngularJS - Any way for $http.post to send request parameters instead of JSON?

You can also solve this problem without changing code in server, changing header in $http.post call and use $_POST the regular way. Explained here: http://victorblog.com/2012/12/20/make-angularjs-http-service-behave-like-jquery-ajax/

OpenCV TypeError: Expected cv::UMat for argument 'src' - What is this?

Is canny your own function? Do you use Canny from OpenCV inside it? If yes check if you feed suitable argument for Canny - first Canny argument should meet following criteria:

  • type: <type 'numpy.ndarray'>
  • dtype: dtype('uint8')
  • being single channel or simplyfing: grayscale, that is 2D array, i.e. its shape should be 2-tuple of ints (tuple containing exactly 2 integers)

You can check it by printing respectively

type(variable_name)
variable_name.dtype
variable_name.shape

Replace variable_name with name of variable you feed as first argument to Canny.

What is Dependency Injection?

Any nontrivial application is made up of two or more classes that collaborate with each other to perform some business logic. Traditionally, each object is responsible for obtaining its own references to the objects it collaborates with (its dependencies). When applying DI, the objects are given their dependencies at creation time by some external entity that coordinates each object in the system. In other words, dependencies are injected into objects.

Angular 2.0 and Modal Dialog

Now available as a NPM package

angular-custom-modal


@Stephen Paul continuation...

  • Angular 2 and up Bootstrap css (animation is preserved)
  • NO JQuery
  • NO bootstrap.js
  • Supports custom modal content
  • Support for multiple modals on top of each other.
  • Moduralized
  • Disable scroll when modal is open
  • Modal gets destroyed when navigating away.
  • Lazy content initialization, which gets ngOnDestroy(ed) when the modal is exited.
  • Parent scrolling disabled when modal is visible

Lazy content initialization

Why?

In some cases you might not want to modal to retain its status after having been closed, but rather restored to the initial state.

Original modal issue

Passing the content straightforward into the view actually generates initializes it even before the modal gets it. The modal doesn't have a way to kill such content even if using a *ngIf wrapper.

Solution

ng-template. ng-template doesn't render until ordered to do so.

my-component.module.ts

...
imports: [
  ...
  ModalModule
]

my-component.ts

<button (click)="reuseModal.open()">Open</button>
<app-modal #reuseModal>
  <ng-template #header></ng-template>
  <ng-template #body>
    <app-my-body-component>
      <!-- This component will be created only when modal is visible and will be destroyed when it's not. -->
    </app-my-body-content>
    <ng-template #footer></ng-template>
</app-modal>

modal.component.ts

export class ModalComponent ... {
  @ContentChild('header') header: TemplateRef<any>;
  @ContentChild('body') body: TemplateRef<any>;
  @ContentChild('footer') footer: TemplateRef<any>;
 ...
}

modal.component.html

<div ... *ngIf="visible">
  ...
  <div class="modal-body">
    ng-container *ngTemplateOutlet="body"></ng-container>
  </div>

References

I have to say that it wouldn't have been possible without the excellent official and community documentation around the net. It might help some of you too to understand better how ng-template, *ngTemplateOutlet and @ContentChild work.

TSQL - Cast string to integer or return default value

Yes :). Try this:

DECLARE @text AS NVARCHAR(10)

SET @text = '100'
SELECT CASE WHEN ISNUMERIC(@text) = 1 THEN CAST(@text AS INT) ELSE NULL END
-- returns 100

SET @text = 'XXX'
SELECT CASE WHEN ISNUMERIC(@text) = 1 THEN CAST(@text AS INT) ELSE NULL END
-- returns NULL

ISNUMERIC() has a few issues pointed by Fedor Hajdu.

It returns true for strings like $ (is currency), , or . (both are separators), + and -.

Docker error : no space left on device

I went to the docker settings and changed the image space available. It reached the limit while creating the new image with docker build. So I just increased the amount available.

$date + 1 year?

To add one year to todays date use the following:

$oneYearOn = date('Y-m-d',strtotime(date("Y-m-d", mktime()) . " + 365 day"));

For the other examples you must initialize $StartingDate with a timestamp value for example:

$StartingDate = mktime();  // todays date as a timestamp

Try this

$newEndingDate = date("Y-m-d", strtotime(date("Y-m-d", strtotime($StaringDate)) . " + 365 day"));

or

$newEndingDate = date("Y-m-d", strtotime(date("Y-m-d", strtotime($StaringDate)) . " + 1 year"));

Full Screen Theme for AppCompat

Mobile overflow:scroll and overflow-scrolling: touch // prevent viewport "bounce"

I've managed to find a CSS workaround to preventing bouncing of the viewport. The key was to wrap the content in 3 divs with -webkit-touch-overflow:scroll applied to them. The final div should have a min-height of 101%. In addition, you should explicitly set fixed widths/heights on the body tag representing the size of your device. I've added a red background on the body to demonstrate that it is the content that is now bouncing and not the mobile safari viewport.

Source code below and here is a plunker (this has been tested on iOS7 GM too). http://embed.plnkr.co/NCOFoY/preview

If you intend to run this as a full-screen app on iPhone 5, modify the height to 1136px (when apple-mobile-web-app-status-bar-style is set to 'black-translucent' or 1096px when set to 'black'). 920x is the height of the viewport once the chrome of mobile safari has been taken into account).

Bootstrap Modal before form Submit

It is easy to solve, only create an hidden submit:

<button id="submitCadastro" type="button">ENVIAR</button>
<input type="submit" id="submitCadastroHidden" style="display: none;" >

with jQuery you click the submit:

$("#submitCadastro").click(function(){
    if($("#checkDocumentos").prop("checked") == false){
        //alert("Aceite os termos e condições primeiro!.");
        $("#modalERROR").modal("show");
    }else{
        //$("#formCadastro").submit();
        $("#submitCadastroHidden").click();                     
    }
});

Catching multiple exception types in one catch block

As of PHP 8.0 you can use even cleaner way to catch your exceptions when you don't need to output the content of the error (from variable $e). However you must replace default Exception with Throwable.

try {
    /* something */
} catch (AError | BError) {
    handler1()
} catch (Throwable) {
    handler2()
}

Java Swing revalidate() vs repaint()

revalidate() just request to layout the container, when you experienced simply call revalidate() works, it could be caused by the updating of child components bounds triggers the repaint() when their bounds are changed during the re-layout. In the case you mentioned, only component removed and no component bounds are changed, this case no repaint() is "accidentally" triggered.

Pseudo-terminal will not be allocated because stdin is not a terminal

All relevant information is in the existing answers, but let me attempt a pragmatic summary:

tl;dr:

  • DO pass the commands to run using a command-line argument:
    ssh jdoe@server '...'

    • '...' strings can span multiple lines, so you can keep your code readable even without the use of a here-document:
      ssh jdoe@server ' ... '
  • Do NOT pass the commands via stdin, as is the case when you use a here-document:
    ssh jdoe@server <<'EOF' # Do NOT do this ... EOF

Passing the commands as an argument works as-is, and:

  • the problem with the pseudo-terminal will not even arise.
  • you won't need an exit statement at the end of your commands, because the session will automatically exit after the commands have been processed.

In short: passing commands via stdin is a mechanism that is at odds with ssh's design and causes problems that must then be worked around.
Read on, if you want to know more.


Optional background information:

ssh's mechanism for accepting commands to execute on the target server is a command-line argument: the final operand (non-option argument) accepts a string containing one or more shell commands.

  • By default, these commands run unattended, in an non-interactive shell, without the use of a (pseudo) terminal (option -T is implied), and the session automatically ends when the last command finishes processing.

  • In the event that your commands require user interaction, such as responding to an interactive prompt, you can explicitly request the creation of a pty (pseudo-tty), a pseudo terminal, that enables interacting with the remote session, using the -t option; e.g.:

    • ssh -t jdoe@server 'read -p "Enter something: "; echo "Entered: [$REPLY]"'

    • Note that the interactive read prompt only works correctly with a pty, so the -t option is needed.

    • Using a pty has a notable side effect: stdout and stderr are combined and both reported via stdout; in other words: you lose the distinction between regular and error output; e.g.:

      • ssh jdoe@server 'echo out; echo err >&2' # OK - stdout and stderr separate

      • ssh -t jdoe@server 'echo out; echo err >&2' # !! stdout + stderr -> stdout

In the absence of this argument, ssh creates an interactive shell - including when you send commands via stdin, which is where the trouble begins:

  • For an interactive shell, ssh normally allocates a pty (pseudo-terminal) by default, except if its stdin is not connected to a (real) terminal.

    • Sending commands via stdin means that ssh's stdin is no longer connected to a terminal, so no pty is created, and ssh warns you accordingly:
      Pseudo-terminal will not be allocated because stdin is not a terminal.

    • Even the -t option, whose express purpose is to request creation of a pty, is not enough in this case: you'll get the same warning.

      • Somewhat curiously, you must then double the -t option to force creation of a pty: ssh -t -t ... or ssh -tt ... shows that you really, really mean it.

      • Perhaps the rationale for requiring this very deliberate step is that things may not work as expected. For instance, on macOS 10.12, the apparent equivalent of the above command, providing the commands via stdin and using -tt, does not work properly; the session gets stuck after responding to the read prompt:
        ssh -tt jdoe@server <<<'read -p "Enter something: "; echo "Entered: [$REPLY]"'


In the unlikely event that the commands you want to pass as an argument make the command line too long for your system (if its length approaches getconf ARG_MAX - see this article), consider copying the code to the remote system in the form of a script first (using, e.g., scp), and then send a command to execute that script.

In a pinch, use -T, and provide the commands via stdin, with a trailing exit command, but note that if you also need interactive features, using -tt in lieu of -T may not work.

How can I echo the whole content of a .html file in PHP?

Just use:

<?php
    include("/path/to/file.html");
?>

That will echo it as well. This also has the benefit of executing any PHP in the file.

If you need to do anything with the contents, use file_get_contents(),

For example,

<?php
    $pagecontents = file_get_contents("/path/to/file.html");

    echo str_replace("Banana", "Pineapple", $pagecontents);

?>

This doesn't execute code in that file, so be careful if you expect that to work.

I usually use:

include($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']."/path/to/file/as/in/url.html");

as then I can move files without breaking the includes.

What is the use of GO in SQL Server Management Studio & Transact SQL?

CSS two div width 50% in one line with line break in file

The problem is that when something is inline, every whitespace is treated as an actual space. So it will influence the width of the elements. I recommend using float or display: inline-block. (Just don't leave any whitespace between the divs).

Here is a demo:

_x000D_
_x000D_
div {_x000D_
  background: red;_x000D_
}_x000D_
div + div {_x000D_
  background: green;_x000D_
}
_x000D_
<div style="width:50%; display:inline-block;">A</div><div style="width:50%; display:inline-block;">B</div>
_x000D_
_x000D_
