Undefined symbols for architecture i386

Add the framework required for the method used in the project target in the "Link Binaries With Libraries" list of Build Phases, it will work easily. Like I have imported to my project

QuartzCore.framework

For the bug

Undefined symbols for architecture i386:

OpenCV - Apply mask to a color image

Here, you could use cv2.bitwise_and function if you already have the mask image.

For check the below code:

img = cv2.imread('lena.jpg')
mask = cv2.imread('mask.png',0)
res = cv2.bitwise_and(img,img,mask = mask)

The output will be as follows for a lena image, and for rectangular mask.

How to restrict SSH users to a predefined set of commands after login?

You can also restrict keys to permissible commands (in the authorized_keys file).

I.e. the user would not log in via ssh and then have a restricted set of commands but rather would only be allowed to execute those commands via ssh (e.g. "ssh somehost bin/showlogfile")

Portable way to check if directory exists [Windows/Linux, C]

With C++17 you can use std::filesystem::is_directory function (https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/filesystem/is_directory). It accepts a std::filesystem::path object which can be constructed with a unicode path.

How to add more than one machine to the trusted hosts list using winrm

I created a module to make dealing with trusted hosts slightly easier, psTrustedHosts. You can find the repo here on GitHub. It provides four functions that make working with trusted hosts easy: Add-TrustedHost, Clear-TrustedHost, Get-TrustedHost, and Remove-TrustedHost. You can install the module from PowerShell Gallery with the following command:

Install-Module psTrustedHosts -Force

In your example, if you wanted to append hosts 'machineC' and 'machineD' you would simply use the following command:

Add-TrustedHost 'machineC','machineD'

To be clear, this adds hosts 'machineC' and 'machineD' to any hosts that already exist, it does not overwrite existing hosts.

The Add-TrustedHost command supports pipeline processing as well (so does the Remove-TrustedHost command) so you could also do the following:

'machineC','machineD' | Add-TrustedHost

How do you print in a Go test using the "testing" package?

t.Log and t.Logf do print out in your test but can often be missed as it prints on the same line as your test. What I do is Log them in a way that makes them stand out, ie

t.Run("FindIntercomUserAndReturnID should find an intercom user", func(t *testing.T) {

    id, err := ic.FindIntercomUserAndReturnID("[email protected]")
    assert.Nil(t, err)
    assert.NotNil(t, id)

    t.Logf("\n\nid: %v\n\n", *id)
})

which prints it to the terminal as,

=== RUN   TestIntercom
=== RUN   TestIntercom/FindIntercomUserAndReturnID_should_find_an_intercom_user
    TestIntercom/FindIntercomUserAndReturnID_should_find_an_intercom_user: intercom_test.go:34:

how to use sqltransaction in c#

Well, I don't understand why are you used transaction in case when you make a select.

Transaction is useful when you make changes (add, edit or delete) data from database.

Remove transaction unless you use insert, update or delete statements

CertificateException: No name matching ssl.someUrl.de found

The server name should be same as the first/last name which you give while create a certificate

CSS: How to remove pseudo elements (after, before,...)?

You need to add a css rule that removes the after content (through a class)..

An update due to some valid comments.

The more correct way to completely remove/disable the :after rule is to use

p.no-after:after{content:none;}

as Gillian Lo Wong answered.

Original answer

You need to add a css rule that removes the after content (through a class)..

~~p.no-after:after{content:"";}~~

and add that class to your p when you want to with this line

$('p').addClass('no-after'); // replace the p selector with what you need...

What is callback in Android?

Here is a nice tutorial, which describes callbacks and the use-case well.

The concept of callbacks is to inform a class synchronous / asynchronous if some work in another class is done. Some call it the Hollywood principle: "Don't call us we call you".

Here's a example:

class A implements ICallback {
     MyObject o;
     B b = new B(this, someParameter);

     @Override
     public void callback(MyObject o){
           this.o = o;
     }
}

class B {
     ICallback ic;
     B(ICallback ic, someParameter){
         this.ic = ic;
     }

    new Thread(new Runnable(){
         public void run(){
             // some calculation
             ic.callback(myObject)
         }
    }).start(); 
}

interface ICallback{
    public void callback(MyObject o);
}

Class A calls Class B to get some work done in a Thread. If the Thread finished the work, it will inform Class A over the callback and provide the results. So there is no need for polling or something. You will get the results as soon as they are available.

In Android Callbacks are used f.e. between Activities and Fragments. Because Fragments should be modular you can define a callback in the Fragment to call methods in the Activity.

Can someone explain the dollar sign in Javascript?

In your example the $ has no special significance other than being a character of the name.

However, in ECMAScript 6 (ES6) the $ may represent a Template Literal

var user = 'Bob'
console.log(`We love ${user}.`); //Note backticks
// We love Bob.

How to delete cookies on an ASP.NET website

I just want to point out that the Session ID cookie is not removed when using Session.Abandon as others said.

When you abandon a session, the session ID cookie is not removed from the browser of the user. Therefore, as soon as the session has been abandoned, any new requests to the same application will use the same session ID but will have a new session state instance. At the same time, if the user opens another application within the same DNS domain, the user will not lose their session state after the Abandon method is called from one application.

Sometimes, you may not want to reuse the session ID. If you do and if you understand the ramifications of not reusing the session ID, use the following code example to abandon a session and to clear the session ID cookie:
Session.Abandon();
Response.Cookies.Add(new HttpCookie("ASP.NET_SessionId", ""));
This code example clears the session state from the server and sets the session state cookie to null. The null value effectively clears the cookie from the browser.

Get month name from number

This Is What I Would Do:

from datetime import *

months = ["Unknown",
          "January",
          "Febuary",
          "March",
          "April",
          "May",
          "June",
          "July",
          "August",
          "September",
          "October",
          "November",
          "December"]

now = (datetime.now())
year = (now.year)
month = (months[now.month])
print(month)

It Outputs:

>>> September

(This Was The Real Date When I Wrote This)

Checking Bash exit status of several commands efficiently

Instead of creating runner functions or using set -e, use a trap:

trap 'echo "error"; do_cleanup failed; exit' ERR
trap 'echo "received signal to stop"; do_cleanup interrupted; exit' SIGQUIT SIGTERM SIGINT

do_cleanup () { rm tempfile; echo "$1 $(date)" >> script_log; }

command1
command2
command3

The trap even has access to the line number and the command line of the command that triggered it. The variables are $BASH_LINENO and $BASH_COMMAND.

Why use #ifndef CLASS_H and #define CLASS_H in .h file but not in .cpp?

First, to address your first inquiry:

When you see this in .h file:

#ifndef FILE_H
#define FILE_H

/* ... Declarations etc here ... */

#endif

This is a preprocessor technique of preventing a header file from being included multiple times, which can be problematic for various reasons. During compilation of your project, each .cpp file (usually) is compiled. In simple terms, this means the compiler will take your .cpp file, open any files #included by it, concatenate them all into one massive text file, and then perform syntax analysis and finally it will convert it to some intermediate code, optimize/perform other tasks, and finally generate the assembly output for the target architecture. Because of this, if a file is #included multiple times under one .cpp file, the compiler will append its file contents twice, so if there are definitions within that file, you will get a compiler error telling you that you redefined a variable. When the file is processed by the preprocessor step in the compilation process, the first time its contents are reached the first two lines will check if FILE_H has been defined for the preprocessor. If not, it will define FILE_H and continue processing the code between it and the #endif directive. The next time that file's contents are seen by the preprocessor, the check against FILE_H will be false, so it will immediately scan down to the #endif and continue after it. This prevents redefinition errors.

And to address your second concern:

In C++ programming as a general practice we separate development into two file types. One is with an extension of .h and we call this a "header file." They usually provide a declaration of functions, classes, structs, global variables, typedefs, preprocessing macros and definitions, etc. Basically, they just provide you with information about your code. Then we have the .cpp extension which we call a "code file." This will provide definitions for those functions, class members, any struct members that need definitions, global variables, etc. So the .h file declares code, and the .cpp file implements that declaration. For this reason, we generally during compilation compile each .cpp file into an object and then link those objects (because you almost never see one .cpp file include another .cpp file).

How these externals are resolved is a job for the linker. When your compiler processes main.cpp, it gets declarations for the code in class.cpp by including class.h. It only needs to know what these functions or variables look like (which is what a declaration gives you). So it compiles your main.cpp file into some object file (call it main.obj). Similarly, class.cpp is compiled into a class.obj file. To produce the final executable, a linker is invoked to link those two object files together. For any unresolved external variables or functions, the compiler will place a stub where the access happens. The linker will then take this stub and look for the code or variable in another listed object file, and if it's found, it combines the code from the two object files into an output file and replaces the stub with the final location of the function or variable. This way, your code in main.cpp can call functions and use variables in class.cpp IF AND ONLY IF THEY ARE DECLARED IN class.h.

I hope this was helpful.

CSS: fixed position on x-axis but not y?

I just added position:absolute and that solved my problem.

Python - add PYTHONPATH during command line module run

For Mac/Linux;

PYTHONPATH=/foo/bar/baz python somescript.py somecommand

For Windows, setup a wrapper pythonpath.bat;

@ECHO OFF
setlocal
set PYTHONPATH=%1
python %2 %3
endlocal

and call pythonpath.bat script file like;

pythonpath.bat /foo/bar/baz somescript.py somecommand

git command to move a folder inside another

I'm sorry I don't have enough reputation to comment the "answer" of "Andres Jaan Tack".

I think my messege will be deleted (( But I just want to warn "lurscher" and others who got the same error: be carefull doing

$ mkdir include
$ mv common include
$ git rm -r common
$ git add include/common

It may cause you will not see the git history of your project in new folder.

I tryed

$ git mv oldFolderName newFolderName

got

fatal: bad source, source=oldFolderName/somepath/__init__.py, dest

I did

git rm -r oldFolderName

and

git add newFolderName

and I don't see old git history in my project. At least my project is not lost. Now I have my project in newFolderName, but without the history (

Just want to warn, be carefull using advice of "Andres Jaan Tack", if you dont want to lose your git hsitory.

How can I adjust DIV width to contents

You could try using float:left; or display:inline-block;.

Both of these will change the element's behaviour from defaulting to 100% width to defaulting to the natural width of its contents.

However, note that they'll also both have an impact on the layout of the surrounding elements as well. I would suggest that inline-block will have less of an impact though, so probably best to try that first.

How do I auto size a UIScrollView to fit its content

I think this can be a neat way of updating UIScrollView's content view size.

extension UIScrollView {
    func updateContentViewSize() {
        var newHeight: CGFloat = 0
        for view in subviews {
            let ref = view.frame.origin.y + view.frame.height
            if ref > newHeight {
                newHeight = ref
            }
        }
        let oldSize = contentSize
        let newSize = CGSize(width: oldSize.width, height: newHeight + 20)
        contentSize = newSize
    }
}

How to use NSJSONSerialization

The issue seems to be with autorelease of objects. NSJSONSerialization JSONObjectWithData is obviously creating some autoreleased objects and passing it back to you. If you try to take that on to a different thread, it will not work since it cannot be deallocated on a different thread.

Trick might be to try doing a mutable copy of that dictionary or array and use it.

NSError *e = nil;
id jsonObject = [NSJSONSerialization 
JSONObjectWithData: data 
options: NSJSONReadingMutableContainers 
error: &e] mutableCopy];

Treating a NSDictionary as NSArray will not result in Bad access exception but instead will probably crash when a method call is made.

Also, may be the options do not really matter here but it is better to give NSJSONReadingMutableContainers | NSJSONReadingMutableContainers | NSJSONReadingAllowFragments but even if they are autoreleased objects it may not solve this issue.

Create a File object in memory from a string in Java

No; instances of class File represent a path in a filesystem. Therefore, you can use that function only with a file. But perhaps there is an overload that takes an InputStream instead?

How to convert answer into two decimal point

Ran into this problem today and I wrote a function for it. In my particular case, I needed to make sure all values were at least 0 (hence the "LT0" name) and were rounded to two decimal places.

        Private Function LT0(ByVal Input As Decimal, Optional ByVal Precision As Int16 = 2) As Decimal

            ' returns 0 for all values less than 0, the decimal rounded to (Precision) decimal places otherwise.
            If Input < 0 Then Input = 0
            if Precision < 0 then Precision = 0 ' just in case someone does something stupid.
            Return Decimal.Round(Input, Precision) ' this is the line everyone's probably looking for.

        End Function

Understanding the ngRepeat 'track by' expression

You can track by $index if your data source has duplicate identifiers

e.g.: $scope.dataSource: [{id:1,name:'one'}, {id:1,name:'one too'}, {id:2,name:'two'}]

You can't iterate this collection while using 'id' as identifier (duplicate id:1).

WON'T WORK:

<element ng-repeat="item.id as item.name for item in dataSource">
  // something with item ...
</element>

but you can, if using track by $index:

<element ng-repeat="item in dataSource track by $index">
  // something with item ...
</element>

Pythonic way to check if a file exists?

Instead of os.path.isfile, suggested by others, I suggest using os.path.exists, which checks for anything with that name, not just whether it is a regular file.

Thus:

if not os.path.exists(filename):
    file(filename, 'w').close()

Alternatively:

file(filename, 'w+').close()

The latter will create the file if it exists, but not otherwise. It will, however, fail if the file exists, but you don't have permission to write to it. That's why I prefer the first solution.

Maven : error in opening zip file when running maven

Get distance between two points in canvas

You can do it with pythagoras theorem

If you have two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) then you can calculate the difference in x and difference in y, lets call them a and b.

enter image description here

var a = x1 - x2;
var b = y1 - y2;

var c = Math.sqrt( a*a + b*b );

// c is the distance

Multiple Order By with LINQ

You can use the ThenBy and ThenByDescending extension methods:

foobarList.OrderBy(x => x.Foo).ThenBy( x => x.Bar)

How can I generate random alphanumeric strings?

You just use the assembly SRVTextToImage. And write below code to generate random string.

CaptchaRandomImage c1 = new CaptchaRandomImage();
            string text = c1.GetRandomString(8);

Mostly it is used to implement the Captcha. But in your case it also works. Hope it helps.

How to send a stacktrace to log4j?

Try this:

catch (Throwable t) {
    logger.error("any message" + t);
    StackTraceElement[] s = t.getStackTrace();
    for(StackTraceElement e : s){
        logger.error("\tat " + e);
    }   
}

How to check type of object in Python?

What type() means:

I think your question is a bit more general than I originally thought. type() with one argument returns the type or class of the object. So if you have a = 'abc' and use type(a) this returns str because the variable a is a string. If b = 10, type(b) returns int.

For comparisons:

If you want a comparison you could use: if type(v) == h5py.h5r.Reference (to check if it is a h5py.h5r.Reference instance).

But it is recommended that one uses if isinstance(v, h5py.h5r.Reference) but then also subclasses will evaluate to True.

If you want to print the class use print v.__class__.__name__.

More generally: You can compare if two instances have the same class by using type(v) is type(other_v) or isinstance(v, other_v.__class__).

How to concatenate variables into SQL strings

You can accomplish this (if I understand what you are trying to do) using dynamic SQL.

The trick is that you need to create a string containing the SQL statement. That's because the tablename has to specified in the actual SQL text, when you execute the statement. The table references and column references can't be supplied as parameters, those have to appear in the SQL text.

So you can use something like this approach:

SET @stmt = 'INSERT INTO @tmpTbl1 SELECT ' + @KeyValue 
    + ' AS fld1 FROM tbl' + @KeyValue

EXEC (@stmt)

First, we create a SQL statement as a string. Given a @KeyValue of 'Foo', that would create a string containing:

'INSERT INTO @tmpTbl1 SELECT Foo AS fld1 FROM tblFoo'

At this point, it's just a string. But we can execute the contents of the string, as a dynamic SQL statement, using EXECUTE (or EXEC for short).

The old-school sp_executesql procedure is an alternative to EXEC, another way to execute dymamic SQL, which also allows you to pass parameters, rather than specifying all values as literals in the text of the statement.

FOLLOWUP

EBarr points out (correctly and importantly) that this approach is susceptible to SQL Injection.

Consider what would happen if @KeyValue contained the string:

'1 AS foo; DROP TABLE students; -- '

The string we would produce as a SQL statement would be:

'INSERT INTO @tmpTbl1 SELECT 1 AS foo; DROP TABLE students; -- AS fld1 ...'

When we EXECUTE that string as a SQL statement:

INSERT INTO @tmpTbl1 SELECT 1 AS foo;
DROP TABLE students;
-- AS fld1 FROM tbl1 AS foo; DROP ...

And it's not just a DROP TABLE that could be injected. Any SQL could be injected, and it might be much more subtle and even more nefarious. (The first attacks can be attempts to retreive information about tables and columns, followed by attempts to retrieve data (email addresses, account numbers, etc.)

One way to address this vulnerability is to validate the contents of @KeyValue, say it should contain only alphabetic and numeric characters (e.g. check for any characters not in those ranges using LIKE '%[^A-Za-z0-9]%'. If an illegal character is found, then reject the value, and exit without executing any SQL.

Warning: mysqli_num_rows() expects parameter 1 to be mysqli_result, boolean given in

The problem is your query returned false meaning there was an error in your query. After your query you could do the following:

if (!$result) {
    die(mysqli_error($link));
}

Or you could combine it with your query:

$results = mysqli_query($link, $query) or die(mysqli_error($link));

That will print out your error.

Also... you need to sanitize your input. You can't just take user input and put that into a query. Try this:

$query = "SELECT * FROM shopsy_db WHERE name LIKE '%" . mysqli_real_escape_string($link, $searchTerm) . "%'";

In reply to: Table 'sookehhh_shopsy_db.sookehhh_shopsy_db' doesn't exist

Are you sure the table name is sookehhh_shopsy_db? maybe it's really like users or something.

Get position/offset of element relative to a parent container?

Sure is easy with pure JS, just do this, work for fixed and animated HTML 5 panels too, i made and try this code and it works for any brower (include IE 8):

<script type="text/javascript">
    function fGetCSSProperty(s, e) {
        try { return s.currentStyle ? s.currentStyle[e] : window.getComputedStyle(s)[e]; }
        catch (x) { return null; } 
    }
    function fGetOffSetParent(s) {
        var a = s.offsetParent || document.body;

        while (a && a.tagName && a != document.body && fGetCSSProperty(a, 'position') == 'static')
            a = a.offsetParent;
        return a;
    }
    function GetPosition(s) {
        var b = fGetOffSetParent(s);

        return { Left: (b.offsetLeft + s.offsetLeft), Top: (b.offsetTop + s.offsetTop) };
    }    
</script>

DateTime format to SQL format using C#

Another solution to pass DateTime from C# to SQL Server, irrespective of SQL Server language settings

supposedly that your Regional Settings show date as dd.MM.yyyy (German standard '104') then

DateTime myDateTime = DateTime.Now;
string sqlServerDate = "CONVERT(date,'"+myDateTime+"',104)";

passes the C# datetime variable to SQL Server Date type variable, considering the mapping as per "104" rules . Sql Server date gets yyyy-MM-dd

If your Regional Settings display DateTime differently, then use the appropriate matching from the SQL Server CONVERT Table

see more about Rules: https://www.techonthenet.com/sql_server/functions/convert.php

Git Bash is extremely slow on Windows 7 x64

You might also gain a very subsquent performance boost by changing the following Git configuration:

git config --global status.submoduleSummary false

When running the simple git status command on Window 7 x64, it took my computer more than 30 seconds to run. After this option was defined, the command is immediate.

Activating Git's own tracing as explained in the following page helped me found the origin of the problem, which might differ in your installation: https://github.com/msysgit/msysgit/wiki/Diagnosing-why-Git-is-so-slow

How to export library to Jar in Android Studio?

I was able to export a jar file in Android Studio using this tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1i4I-Nph-Cw "How To Export Jar From Android Studio "

I updated my answer to include all the steps for exporting a JAR in Android Studio:

1) Create Android application project, go to app->build.gradle

2) Change the following in this file:

modify apply plugin: 'com.android.application' to apply plugin: 'com.android.library'
remove the following: applicationId, versionCode and versionName
Add the following code:

// Task to delete old jar
task deleteOldJar(type: Delete){
   delete 'release/AndroidPlugin2.jar'
}

// task to export contents as jar
task exportJar(type: Copy) {
    from ('build/intermediates/bundles/release/')
    into ('release/')
    include ('classes.jar')
    rename('classes.jar', 'AndroidPlugin2.jar')
}
exportJar.dependsOn(deleteOldJar, build)

3) Don't forget to click sync now in this file (top right or use sync button).

4) Click on Gradle tab (usually middle right) and scroll down to exportjar

5) Once you see the build successful message in the run window, using normal file explorer go to exported jar using the path: C:\Users\name\AndroidStudioProjects\ProjectName\app\release you should see in this directory your jar file.

Good Luck :)

How to convert the system date format to dd/mm/yy in SQL Server 2008 R2?

   SELECT CONVERT(varchar(11),getdate(),101)  -- mm/dd/yyyy

   SELECT CONVERT(varchar(11),getdate(),103)  -- dd/mm/yyyy

Check this . I am assuming D30.SPGD30_TRACKED_ADJUSTMENT_X is of datetime datatype .
That is why i am using CAST() function to make it as an character expression because CHARINDEX() works on character expression.
Also I think there is no need of OR condition.

select case when CHARINDEX('-',cast(D30.SPGD30_TRACKED_ADJUSTMENT_X as varchar )) > 0 

then 'Score Calculation - '+CONVERT(VARCHAR(11), D30.SPGD30_TRACKED_ADJUSTMENT_X, 103)
end

EDIT:

select case when CHARINDEX('-',D30.SPGD30_TRACKED_ADJUSTMENT_X) > 0 
then 'Score Calculation - '+
CONVERT( VARCHAR(11), CAST(D30.SPGD30_TRACKED_ADJUSTMENT_X as DATETIME) , 103)
end

C# Java HashMap equivalent

From C# equivalent to Java HashMap

I needed a Dictionary which accepted a "null" key, but there seems to be no native one, so I have written my own. It's very simple, actually. I inherited from Dictionary, added a private field to hold the value for the "null" key, then overwritten the indexer. It goes like this :

public class NullableDictionnary : Dictionary<string, string>
{
    string null_value;

    public StringDictionary this[string key]
    {
        get
        {
            if (key == null) 
            {
                return null_value;
            }
            return base[key];
        }
        set
        {
            if (key == null)
            {
                null_value = value;
            }
            else 
            {
                base[key] = value;
            }
        }
    }
}

Hope this helps someone in the future.

==========

I modified it to this format

public class NullableDictionnary : Dictionary<string, object>

How can I wait for set of asynchronous callback functions?

You can emulate it like this:

  countDownLatch = {
     count: 0,
     check: function() {
         this.count--;
         if (this.count == 0) this.calculate();
     },
     calculate: function() {...}
  };

then each async call does this:

countDownLatch.count++;

while in each asynch call back at the end of the method you add this line:

countDownLatch.check();

In other words, you emulate a count-down-latch functionality.

How to check for empty array in vba macro

Go with a triple negative:

If (Not Not FileNamesList) <> 0 Then
    ' Array has been initialized, so you're good to go.
Else
    ' Array has NOT been initialized
End If

Or just:

If (Not FileNamesList) = -1 Then
    ' Array has NOT been initialized
Else
    ' Array has been initialized, so you're good to go.
End If

In VB, for whatever reason, Not myArray returns the SafeArray pointer. For uninitialized arrays, this returns -1. You can Not this to XOR it with -1, thus returning zero, if you prefer.

               (Not myArray)   (Not Not myArray)
Uninitialized       -1                 0
Initialized    -someBigNumber   someOtherBigNumber

Redirecting unauthorized controller in ASP.NET MVC

Would have left this as a comment but I need more rep, anyways I just wanted to mention to Nicholas Peterson that perhaps passing the second argument to the Redirect call to tell it to end the response would have worked. Not the most graceful way to handle this but it does in fact work.

filterContext.RequestContext.HttpContext.Response.Redirect("/Login", true);

instead of

filterContext.RequestContext.HttpContext.Response.Redirect("/Login);

So you'd have this in your controller:

 protected override void OnAuthorization(AuthorizationContext filterContext)
 {
      if(!User.IsInRole("Admin")
      {
          base.OnAuthorization(filterContext);
          filterContext.RequestContext.HttpContext.Response.Redirect("/Login", true);
      }
 }

HTML Form Redirect After Submit

Try this Javascript (jquery) code. Its an ajax request to an external URL. Use the callback function to fire any code:

      window.location = 'http://google.com';
    });
    return false;
  });
});
</script>

How do I set the time zone of MySQL?

You have to set up the your location timezone. So that follow below process
Open your MSQLWorkbench write a simple sql command like this;

psql - save results of command to a file

If you got the following error

ERROR:  must be superuser to COPY to or from a file
HINT:  Anyone can COPY to stdout or from stdin. psql's \copy command also works for anyone.

you can run it in this way:

psql somepsqllink_or_credentials -c "COPY (SELECT foo, bar FROM baz) TO STDOUT (format csv, delimiter ';')"  > baz.csv

What is parsing in terms that a new programmer would understand?

Parsing is about READING data in one format, so that you can use it to your needs.

I think you need to teach them to think like this. So, this is the simplest way I can think of to explain parsing for someone new to this concept.

Generally, we try to parse data one line at a time because generally it is easier for humans to think this way, dividing and conquering, and also easier to code.

We call field to every minimum undivisible data. Name is field, Age is another field, and Surname is another field. For example.

In a line, we can have various fields. In order to distinguish them, we can delimit fields by separators or by the maximum length assign to each field.

For example: By separating fields by comma

Paul,20,Jones

Or by space (Name can have 20 letters max, age up to 3 digits, Jones up to 20 letters)

Paul 020Jones

Any of the before set of fields is called a record.

To separate between a delimited field record we need to delimit record. A dot will be enough (though you know you can apply CR/LF).

A list could be:

Michael,39,Jordan.Shaquille,40,O'neal.Lebron,24,James.

or with CR/LF

Michael,39,Jordan
Shaquille,40,O'neal
Lebron,24,James

You can say them to list 10 nba (or nlf) players they like. Then, they should type them according to a format. Then make a program to parse it and display each record. One group, can make list in a comma-separated format and a program to parse a list in a fixed size format, and viceversa.

SCRIPT7002: XMLHttpRequest: Network Error 0x2ef3, Could not complete the operation due to error 00002ef3

I have stumbled across this questions and answers after receiving the aforementioned error in IE11 when trying to upload files using XMLHttpRequest:

var reqObj = new XMLHttpRequest();

//event Handler
reqObj.upload.addEventListener("progress", uploadProgress, false);
reqObj.addEventListener("load", uploadComplete, false);
reqObj.addEventListener("error", uploadFailed, false);
reqObj.addEventListener("abort", uploadCanceled, false);

//open the object and set method of call (post), url to call, isAsynchronous(true)
reqObj.open("POST", $rootUrlService.rootUrl + "Controller/UploadFiles", true);

//set Content-Type at request header.for file upload it's value must be multipart/form-data
reqObj.setRequestHeader("Content-Type", "multipart/form-data");

//Set header properties : file name and project milestone id
reqObj.setRequestHeader('X-File-Name', name);

// send the file
// this is the line where the error occurs
reqObj.send(fileToUpload);

Removing the line reqObj.setRequestHeader("Content-Type", "multipart/form-data"); fixed the problem.

Note: this error is shown very differently in other browsers. I.e. Chrome shows something similar to a connection reset which is similar to what Fiddler reports (an empty response due to sudden connection close).

Also, this error appeared only when upload was done from a machine different from WebServer (no problems on localhost).

Get int from String, also containing letters, in Java

Unless you're talking about base 16 numbers (for which there's a method to parse as Hex), you need to explicitly separate out the part that you are interested in, and then convert it. After all, what would be the semantics of something like 23e44e11d in base 10?

Regular expressions could do the trick if you know for sure that you only have one number. Java has a built in regular expression parser.

If, on the other hands, your goal is to concatenate all the digits and dump the alphas, then that is fairly straightforward to do by iterating character by character to build a string with StringBuilder, and then parsing that one.

How to parse a JSON string into JsonNode in Jackson?

New approach to old question. A solution that works from java 9+

ObjectNode agencyNode = new ObjectMapper().valueToTree(Map.of("key", "value"));

is more readable and maintainable for complex objects. Ej

Map<String, Object> agencyMap = Map.of(
        "name", "Agencia Prueba",
        "phone1", "1198788373",
        "address", "Larrea 45 e/ calligaris y paris",
        "number", 267,
        "enable", true,
        "location", Map.of("id", 54),
        "responsible", Set.of(Map.of("id", 405)),
        "sellers", List.of(Map.of("id", 605))
);
ObjectNode agencyNode = new ObjectMapper().valueToTree(agencyMap);

How do you stylize a font in Swift?

Add Custom Font in Swift

Drag and drop your font in your project.
Double check that it is added in Copy Bundle Resource. (Build Phase -> Copy Bundle Resource).
In your plist file add "Font Provided by application" and add your fonts with full name.
Now use your font like: myLabel.font = UIFont (name: "GILLSANSCE-ROMAN", size: 20)

When do I have to use interfaces instead of abstract classes?

You can't achieve multiple inheritance with abstract class, that is why Sun Microsystems provide interfaces.

You cannot extend two classes but you can implement multiple interfaces.

Text-decoration: none not working

You have a block element (div) inside an inline element (a). This works in HTML 5, but not HTML 4. Thus also only browsers that actually support HTML 5.

When browsers encounter invalid markup, they will try to fix it, but different browsers will do that in different ways, so the result varies. Some browsers will move the block element outside the inline element, some will ignore it.

How does internationalization work in JavaScript?

Localization support in legacy browsers is poor. Originally, this was due to phrases in the ECMAScript language spec that look like this:

Number.prototype.toLocaleString()
Produces a string value that represents the value of the Number formatted according to the conventions of the host environment’s current locale. This function is implementation-dependent, and it is permissible, but not encouraged, for it to return the same thing as toString.

Every localization method defined in the spec is defined as "implementation-dependent", which results in a lot of inconsistencies. In this instance, Chrome Opera and Safari would return the same thing as .toString(). Firefox and IE will return locale formatted strings, and IE even includes a thousand separator (perfect for currency strings). Chrome was recently updated to return a thousands-separated string, though with no fixed decimal.

For modern environments, the ECMAScript Internationalization API spec, a new standard that complements the ECMAScript Language spec, provides much better support for string comparison, number formatting, and the date and time formatting; it also fixes the corresponding functions in the Language Spec. An introduction can be found here. Implementations are available in:

Chrome 24
Firefox 29
Internet Explorer 11
Opera 15

There is also a compatibility implementation, Intl.js, which will provide the API in environments where it doesn't already exist.

Determining the user's preferred language remains a problem since there's no specification for obtaining the current language. Each browser implements a method to obtain a language string, but this could be based on the user's operating system language or just the language of the browser:

// navigator.userLanguage for IE, navigator.language for others
var lang = navigator.language || navigator.userLanguage;

A good workaround for this is to dump the Accept-Language header from the server to the client. If formatted as a JavaScript, it can be passed to the Internationalization API constructors, which will automatically pick the best (or first-supported) locale.

In short, you have to put in a lot of the work yourself, or use a framework/library, because you cannot rely on the browser to do it for you.

Various libraries and plugins for localization:

Mantained by an open community (no order):

Polyglot.js - AirBnb's internationalization library
Intl.js - a compatibility implementation of the Internationalisation API
i18next (home) for i18n (incl. jquery plugin, translation ui,...)
moment.js (home) for dates
numbro.js (home) (was numeral.js (home)) for numbers and currency
l10n.js (home)
L10ns (home) tool for i18n workflow and complex string formatting
jQuery Localisation (plugin) (home)
YUI Internationalization support
jquery.i18Now for dates
browser-i18n with support to pluralization
counterpart is inspired by Ruby's famous I18n gem

Mathematical functions in Swift

For the Swift way of doing things, you can try and make use of the tools available in the Swift Standard Library. These should work on any platform that is able to run Swift.

Instead of floor(), round() and the rest of the rounding routines you can use rounded(_:):

let x = 6.5

// Equivalent to the C 'round' function:
print(x.rounded(.toNearestOrAwayFromZero))
// Prints "7.0"

// Equivalent to the C 'trunc' function:
print(x.rounded(.towardZero))
// Prints "6.0"

// Equivalent to the C 'ceil' function:
print(x.rounded(.up))
// Prints "7.0"

// Equivalent to the C 'floor' function:
print(x.rounded(.down))
// Prints "6.0"

These are currently available on Float and Double and it should be easy enough to convert to a CGFloat for example.

Instead of sqrt() there's the squareRoot() method on the FloatingPoint protocol. Again, both Float and Double conform to the FloatingPoint protocol:

let x = 4.0
let y = x.squareRoot()

For the trigonometric functions, the standard library can't help, so you're best off importing Darwin on the Apple platforms or Glibc on Linux. Fingers-crossed they'll be a neater way in the future.

#if os(OSX) || os(iOS)
import Darwin
#elseif os(Linux)
import Glibc
#endif

let x = 1.571
print(sin(x))
// Prints "~1.0"

equivalent of vbCrLf in c#

Add a reference to Microsoft.VisualBasic to your project.

Then insert the using statement

using Microsoft.VisualBasic;

Use the defined constant vbCrLf:

private const string myString = "abc" + Constants.vbCrLf;

Get a json via Http Request in NodeJS

Just setting json option to true, the body will contain the parsed json:

request({
  url: 'http://...',
  json: true
}, function(error, response, body) {
  console.log(body);
});

Have a fixed position div that needs to scroll if content overflows

Generally speaking, fixed section should be set with width, height and top, bottom properties, otherwise it won't recognise its size and position.

If the used box is direct child for body and has neighbours, then it makes sense to check z-index and top, left properties, since they could overlap each other, which might affect your mouse hover while scrolling the content.

Here is the solution for a content box (a direct child of body tag) which is commonly used along with mobile navigation.

.fixed-content {
    position: fixed;
    top: 0;
    bottom:0;

    width: 100vw; /* viewport width */
    height: 100vh; /* viewport height */
    overflow-y: scroll;
    overflow-x: hidden;
}

Hope it helps anybody. Thank you!

How to write logs in text file when using java.util.logging.Logger

Location of log file can be control through logging.properties file. And it can be passed as JVM parameter ex : java -Djava.util.logging.config.file=/scratch/user/config/logging.properties

Details: https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23549_01/doc.1111/e14568/handler.htm

Configuring the File handler

To send logs to a file, add FileHandler to the handlers property in the logging.properties file. This will enable file logging globally.

handlers= java.util.logging.FileHandler Configure the handler by setting the following properties:

java.util.logging.FileHandler.pattern=<home directory>/logs/oaam.log
java.util.logging.FileHandler.limit=50000
java.util.logging.FileHandler.count=1
java.util.logging.FileHandler.formatter=java.util.logging.SimpleFormatter

java.util.logging.FileHandler.pattern specifies the location and pattern of the output file. The default setting is your home directory.

java.util.logging.FileHandler.limit specifies, in bytes, the maximum amount that the logger writes to any one file.

java.util.logging.FileHandler.count specifies how many output files to cycle through.

java.util.logging.FileHandler.formatter specifies the java.util.logging formatter class that the file handler class uses to format the log messages. SimpleFormatter writes brief "human-readable" summaries of log records.

To instruct java to use this configuration file instead of $JDK_HOME/jre/lib/logging.properties:

java -Djava.util.logging.config.file=/scratch/user/config/logging.properties

add string to String array

You cannot resize an array in java.

Once the size of array is declared, it remains fixed.

Instead you can use ArrayList that has dynamic size, meaning you don't need to worry about its size. If your array list is not big enough to accommodate new values then it will be resized automatically.

ArrayList<String> ar = new ArrayList<String>();
String s1 ="Test1";
String s2 ="Test2";
String s3 ="Test3";
ar.add(s1);
ar.add(s2);
ar.add(s3);

String s4 ="Test4";
ar.add(s4);

How do I find the current machine's full hostname in C (hostname and domain information)?

To get a fully qualified name for a machine, we must first get the local hostname, and then lookup the canonical name.

The easiest way to do this is by first getting the local hostname using uname() or gethostname() and then performing a lookup with gethostbyname() and looking at the h_name member of the struct it returns. If you are using ANSI c, you must use uname() instead of gethostname().

Example:

char hostname[1024];
hostname[1023] = '\0';
gethostname(hostname, 1023);
printf("Hostname: %s\n", hostname);
struct hostent* h;
h = gethostbyname(hostname);
printf("h_name: %s\n", h->h_name);

Unfortunately, gethostbyname() is deprecated in the current POSIX specification, as it doesn't play well with IPv6. A more modern version of this code would use getaddrinfo().

Example:

struct addrinfo hints, *info, *p;
int gai_result;

char hostname[1024];
hostname[1023] = '\0';
gethostname(hostname, 1023);

memset(&hints, 0, sizeof hints);
hints.ai_family = AF_UNSPEC; /*either IPV4 or IPV6*/
hints.ai_socktype = SOCK_STREAM;
hints.ai_flags = AI_CANONNAME;

if ((gai_result = getaddrinfo(hostname, "http", &hints, &info)) != 0) {
    fprintf(stderr, "getaddrinfo: %s\n", gai_strerror(gai_result));
    exit(1);
}

for(p = info; p != NULL; p = p->ai_next) {
    printf("hostname: %s\n", p->ai_canonname);
}

freeaddrinfo(info);

Of course, this will only work if the machine has a FQDN to give - if not, the result of the getaddrinfo() ends up being the same as the unqualified hostname.

How to set the id attribute of a HTML element dynamically with angularjs (1.x)?

ngAttr directive can totally be of help here, as introduced in the official documentation

https://docs.angularjs.org/guide/interpolation#-ngattr-for-binding-to-arbitrary-attributes

For instance, to set the id attribute value of a div element, so that it contains an index, a view fragment might contain

<div ng-attr-id="{{ 'object-' + myScopeObject.index }}"></div>

which would get interpolated to

<div id="object-1"></div>

Can't find file executable in your configured search path for gnc gcc compiler

For that you need to install binary of GNU GCC compiler, which comes with MinGW package. You can download MinGW( and put it under C:/ ) and later you have to download gnu -c, c++ related Binaries, so select required package and install them(in the MinGW ). Then in the Code::Blocks, go to Setting, Compiler, ToolChain Executable. In that you will find Path, there set C:/MinGW. Then mentioned error will be vanished.

Remove non-utf8 characters from string

Slightly different to the question, but what I am doing is to use HtmlEncode(string),

pseudo code here

var encoded = HtmlEncode(string);
encoded = Regex.Replace(encoded, "&#\d+?;", "");
var result = HtmlDecode(encoded);

input and output

"Headlight\x007E Bracket, &#123; Cafe Racer<> Style,Â Stainless Steel ????"
"Headlight~ Bracket, &#123; Cafe Racer<> Style, Stainless Steel ????"

I know it's not perfect, but does the job for me.

Append a single character to a string or char array in java?

First of all you use here two strings: "" marks a string it may be ""-empty "s"- string of lenght 1 or "aaa" string of lenght 3, while '' marks chars . In order to be able to do String str = "a" + "aaa" + 'a' you must use method Character.toString(char c) as @Thomas Keene said so an example would be String str = "a" + "aaa" + Character.toString('a')

what is numeric(18, 0) in sql server 2008 r2

This page explains it pretty well.

As a numeric the allowable range that can be stored in that field is -10^38 +1 to 10^38 - 1.

The first number in parentheses is the total number of digits that will be stored. Counting both sides of the decimal. In this case 18. So you could have a number with 18 digits before the decimal 18 digits after the decimal or some combination in between.

The second number in parentheses is the total number of digits to be stored after the decimal. Since in this case the number is 0 that basically means only integers can be stored in this field.

So the range that can be stored in this particular field is -(10^18 - 1) to (10^18 - 1)

Or -999999999999999999 to 999999999999999999 Integers only

Java 8 Streams: multiple filters vs. complex condition

A complex filter condition is better in performance perspective, but the best performance will show old fashion for loop with a standard if clause is the best option. The difference on a small array 10 elements difference might ~ 2 times, for a large array the difference is not that big.
You can take a look on my GitHub project, where I did performance tests for multiple array iteration options

For small array 10 element throughput ops/s: For medium 10,000 elements throughput ops/s: For large array 1,000,000 elements throughput ops/s:

NOTE: tests runs on

OS version: 16.04.1 LTS (Xenial Xerus)
java version: 1.8.0_121
jvm: -XX:+UseG1GC -server -Xmx1024m -Xms1024m

UPDATE: Java 11 has some progress on the performance, but the dynamics stay the same

How to Install gcc 5.3 with yum on CentOS 7.2?

Command to install GCC and Development Tools on a CentOS / RHEL 7 server

Type the following yum command as root user:

yum group install "Development Tools"

sudo yum group install "Development Tools"

If above command failed, try:

yum groupinstall "Development Tools"

Install Application programmatically on Android

This can help others a lot!

First:

private static final String APP_DIR = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getAbsolutePath() + "/MyAppFolderInStorage/";

private void install() {
    File file = new File(APP_DIR + fileName);

    if (file.exists()) {
        Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
        String type = "application/vnd.android.package-archive";

        if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.N) {
            Uri downloadedApk = FileProvider.getUriForFile(getContext(), "ir.greencode", file);
            intent.setDataAndType(downloadedApk, type);
            intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION);
        } else {
            intent.setDataAndType(Uri.fromFile(file), type);
            intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
        }

        getContext().startActivity(intent);
    } else {
        Toast.makeText(getContext(), "?File not found!", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
    }
}

Second: For android 7 and above you should define a provider in manifest like below!

    <provider
        android:name="android.support.v4.content.FileProvider"
        android:authorities="ir.greencode"
        android:exported="false"
        android:grantUriPermissions="true">
        <meta-data
            android:name="android.support.FILE_PROVIDER_PATHS"
            android:resource="@xml/paths" />
    </provider>

Third: Define path.xml in res/xml folder like below! I'm using this path for internal storage if you want to change it to something else there is a few way! You can go to this link: FileProvider

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<paths xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <external-path name="your_folder_name" path="MyAppFolderInStorage/"/>
</paths>

Forth: You should add this permission in manifest:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.REQUEST_INSTALL_PACKAGES"/>

Allows an application to request installing packages. Apps targeting APIs greater than 25 must hold this permission in order to use Intent.ACTION_INSTALL_PACKAGE.

Please make sure the provider authorities are the same!

select from one table, insert into another table oracle sql query

From the oracle documentation, the below query explains it better

INSERT INTO tbl_temp2 (fld_id)
SELECT tbl_temp1.fld_order_id
FROM tbl_temp1 WHERE tbl_temp1.fld_order_id > 100;

You can read this link

Your query would be as follows

//just the concept    
    INSERT INTO quotedb
    (COLUMN_NAMES) //seperated by comma
    SELECT COLUMN_NAMES FROM tickerdb,quotedb WHERE quotedb.ticker = tickerdb.ticker

Note: Make sure the columns in insert and select are in right position as per your requirement

Hope this helps!

is there a 'block until condition becomes true' function in java?

Similar to EboMike's answer you can use a mechanism similar to wait/notify/notifyAll but geared up for using a Lock.

For example,

public void doSomething() throws InterruptedException {
    lock.lock();
    try {
        condition.await(); // releases lock and waits until doSomethingElse is called
    } finally {
        lock.unlock();
    }
}

public void doSomethingElse() {
    lock.lock();
    try {
        condition.signal();
    } finally {
        lock.unlock();
    }
}

Where you'll wait for some condition which is notified by another thread (in this case calling doSomethingElse), at that point, the first thread will continue...

Using Locks over intrinsic synchronisation has lots of advantages but I just prefer having an explicit Condition object to represent the condition (you can have more than one which is a nice touch for things like producer-consumer).

Also, I can't help but notice how you deal with the interrupted exception in your example. You probably shouldn't consume the exception like this, instead reset the interrupt status flag using Thread.currentThread().interrupt.

This because if the exception is thrown, the interrupt status flag will have been reset (it's saying "I no longer remember being interrupted, I won't be able to tell anyone else that I have been if they ask") and another process may rely on this question. The example being that something else has implemented an interruption policy based on this... phew. A further example might be that your interruption policy, rather that while(true) might have been implemented as while(!Thread.currentThread().isInterrupted() (which will also make your code be more... socially considerate).

So, in summary, using Condition is rougly equivalent to using wait/notify/notifyAll when you want to use a Lock, logging is evil and swallowing InterruptedException is naughty ;)

Polymorphism: Why use "List list = new ArrayList" instead of "ArrayList list = new ArrayList"?

The main reason you'd do this is to decouple your code from a specific implementation of the interface. When you write your code like this:

List list = new ArrayList();

the rest of your code only knows that data is of type List, which is preferable because it allows you to switch between different implementations of the List interface with ease.

For instance, say you were writing a fairly large 3rd party library, and say that you decided to implement the core of your library with a LinkedList. If your library relies heavily on accessing elements in these lists, then eventually you'll find that you've made a poor design decision; you'll realize that you should have used an ArrayList (which gives O(1) access time) instead of a LinkedList (which gives O(n) access time). Assuming you have been programming to an interface, making such a change is easy. You would simply change the instance of List from,

List list = new LinkedList();

List list = new ArrayList();

and you know that this will work because you have written your code to follow the contract provided by the List interface.

On the other hand, if you had implemented the core of your library using LinkedList list = new LinkedList(), making such a change wouldn't be as easy, as there is no guarantee that the rest of your code doesn't make use of methods specific to the LinkedList class.

All in all, the choice is simply a matter of design... but this kind of design is very important (especially when working on large projects), as it will allow you to make implementation-specific changes later without breaking existing code.

Set formula to a range of cells

I think this is the simplest answer possible: 2 lines and very comprehensible. It emulates the functionality of dragging a formula written in a cell across a range of cells.

Range("C1").Formula = "=A1+B1"
Range("C1:C10").FillDown

How do I get the selected element by name and then get the selected value from a dropdown using jQuery?

Your selector is a little off, it's missing the trailing ]

var mySelect = $('select[name=' + name + ']')

you may also need to put quotes around the name, like so:

var mySelect = $('select[name="' + name + '"]')

How to save a BufferedImage as a File

The answer lies within the Java Documentation's Tutorial for Writing/Saving an Image.

The Image I/O class provides the following method for saving an image:

static boolean ImageIO.write(RenderedImage im, String formatName, File output)  throws IOException

The tutorial explains that

The BufferedImage class implements the RenderedImage interface.

so it's able to be used in the method.

For example,

try {
    BufferedImage bi = getMyImage();  // retrieve image
    File outputfile = new File("saved.png");
    ImageIO.write(bi, "png", outputfile);
} catch (IOException e) {
    // handle exception
}

It's important to surround the write call with a try block because, as per the API, the method throws an IOException "if an error occurs during writing"

Also explained are the method's objective, parameters, returns, and throws, in more detail:

Writes an image using an arbitrary ImageWriter that supports the given format to a File. If there is already a File present, its contents are discarded.

Parameters:

im - a RenderedImage to be written.

formatName - a String containg the informal name of the format.

output - a File to be written to.

Returns:

false if no appropriate writer is found.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if any parameter is null.

IOException - if an error occurs during writing.

However, formatName may still seem rather vague and ambiguous; the tutorial clears it up a bit:

The ImageIO.write method calls the code that implements PNG writing a “PNG writer plug-in”. The term plug-in is used since Image I/O is extensible and can support a wide range of formats.

But the following standard image format plugins : JPEG, PNG, GIF, BMP and WBMP are always be present.

For most applications it is sufficient to use one of these standard plugins. They have the advantage of being readily available.

There are, however, additional formats you can use:

The Image I/O class provides a way to plug in support for additional formats which can be used, and many such plug-ins exist. If you are interested in what file formats are available to load or save in your system, you may use the getReaderFormatNames and getWriterFormatNames methods of the ImageIO class. These methods return an array of strings listing all of the formats supported in this JRE.

String writerNames[] = ImageIO.getWriterFormatNames();

The returned array of names will include any additional plug-ins that are installed and any of these names may be used as a format name to select an image writer.

For a full and practical example, one can refer to Oracle's SaveImage.java example.

Difference between "Complete binary tree", "strict binary tree","full binary Tree"?

Concluding from above answers, Here is the exact difference between full/strictly, complete and perfect binary trees

Full/Strictly binary tree :- Every node except the leaf nodes have two children
Complete binary tree :- Every level except the last level is completely filled and all the nodes are left justified.
Perfect binary tree :- Every node except the leaf nodes have two children and every level (last level too) is completely filled.

display Java.util.Date in a specific format

java.time

Here’s the modern answer.

    DateTimeFormatter sourceFormatter = DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern("dd/MM/uuuu");
    DateTimeFormatter displayFormatter = DateTimeFormatter
            .ofLocalizedDate(FormatStyle.SHORT)
            .withLocale(Locale.forLanguageTag("zh-SG"));

    String dateString = "31/05/2011";
    LocalDate date = LocalDate.parse(dateString, sourceFormatter);
    System.out.println(date.format(displayFormatter));

Output from this snippet is:

31/05/11

See if you can live with the 2-digit year. Or use FormatStyle.MEDIUM to obtain 2011?5?31?. I recommend you use Java’s built-in date and time formats when you can. It’s easier and lends itself very well to internationalization.

If you need the exact format you gave, just use the source formatter as display formatter too:

    System.out.println(date.format(sourceFormatter));

31/05/2011

I recommend you don’t use SimpleDateFormat. It’s notoriously troublesome and long outdated. Instead I use java.time, the modern Java date and time API.

To obtain a specific format you need to format the parsed date back into a string. Netiher an old-fashioned Date nor a modern LocalDatecan have a format in it.

DirectorySearcher Filter

How to get substring of NSString?

Option 1:

NSString *haystack = @"value:hello World:value";
NSString *haystackPrefix = @"value:";
NSString *haystackSuffix = @":value";
NSRange needleRange = NSMakeRange(haystackPrefix.length,
                                  haystack.length - haystackPrefix.length - haystackSuffix.length);
NSString *needle = [haystack substringWithRange:needleRange];
NSLog(@"needle: %@", needle); // -> "hello World"

Option 2:

NSRegularExpression *regex = [NSRegularExpression regularExpressionWithPattern:@"^value:(.+?):value$" options:0 error:nil];
NSTextCheckingResult *match = [regex firstMatchInString:haystack options:NSAnchoredSearch range:NSMakeRange(0, haystack.length)];
NSRange needleRange = [match rangeAtIndex: 1];
NSString *needle = [haystack substringWithRange:needleRange];

This one might be a bit over the top for your rather trivial case though.

Option 3:

NSString *needle = [haystack componentsSeparatedByString:@":"][1];

This one creates three temporary strings and an array while splitting.

All snippets assume that what's searched for is actually contained in the string.

What does 'var that = this;' mean in JavaScript?

Sometimes this can refer to another scope and refer to something else, for example suppose you want to call a constructor method inside a DOM event, in this case this will refer to the DOM element not the created object.

HTML

<button id="button">Alert Name</button>

var Person = function(name) {
  this.name = name;
  var that = this;
  this.sayHi = function() {
    alert(that.name);
  };
};

var ahmad = new Person('Ahmad');
var element = document.getElementById('button');
element.addEventListener('click', ahmad.sayHi); // => Ahmad

Demo

The solution above will assing this to that then we can and access the name property inside the sayHi method from that, so this can be called without issues inside the DOM call.

Another solution is to assign an empty that object and add properties and methods to it and then return it. But with this solution you lost the prototype of the constructor.

var Person = function(name) {
  var that = {};
  that.name = name;
  that.sayHi = function() {
    alert(that.name);
  };
  return that;
};

What's the correct way to convert bytes to a hex string in Python 3?

The method binascii.hexlify() will convert bytes to a bytes representing the ascii hex string. That means that each byte in the input will get converted to two ascii characters. If you want a true str out then you can .decode("ascii") the result.

I included an snippet that illustrates it.

import binascii

with open("addressbook.bin", "rb") as f: # or any binary file like '/bin/ls'
    in_bytes = f.read()
    print(in_bytes) # b'\n\x16\n\x04'
    hex_bytes = binascii.hexlify(in_bytes) 
    print(hex_bytes) # b'0a160a04' which is twice as long as in_bytes
    hex_str = hex_bytes.decode("ascii")
    print(hex_str) # 0a160a04

from the hex string "0a160a04" to can come back to the bytes with binascii.unhexlify("0a160a04") which gives back b'\n\x16\n\x04'

Better way to convert file sizes in Python

Instead of a size divisor of 1024 * 1024 you could use the << bitwise shifting operator, i.e. 1<<20 to get megabytes, 1<<30 to get gigabytes, etc.

In the simplest scenario you can have e.g. a constant MBFACTOR = float(1<<20) which can then be used with bytes, i.e.: megas = size_in_bytes/MBFACTOR.

Megabytes are usually all that you need, or otherwise something like this can be used:

# bytes pretty-printing
UNITS_MAPPING = [
    (1<<50, ' PB'),
    (1<<40, ' TB'),
    (1<<30, ' GB'),
    (1<<20, ' MB'),
    (1<<10, ' KB'),
    (1, (' byte', ' bytes')),
]


def pretty_size(bytes, units=UNITS_MAPPING):
    """Get human-readable file sizes.
    simplified version of https://pypi.python.org/pypi/hurry.filesize/
    """
    for factor, suffix in units:
        if bytes >= factor:
            break
    amount = int(bytes / factor)

    if isinstance(suffix, tuple):
        singular, multiple = suffix
        if amount == 1:
            suffix = singular
        else:
            suffix = multiple
    return str(amount) + suffix

print(pretty_size(1))
print(pretty_size(42))
print(pretty_size(4096))
print(pretty_size(238048577))
print(pretty_size(334073741824))

How to save data in an android app

In my opinion db4o is the easiest way to go. Here you can find a tutorial: http://community.versant.com/documentation/reference/db4o-7.12/java/tutorial/

And here you can download the library:

http://www.db4o.com/community/download.aspx?file=db4o-8.0-java.zip

(Just put the db4o-8.0...-all-java5.jar in the lib directory into your project's libs folder. If there is no libs folder in you project create it)

As db4o is a object oriented database system you can directly save you objects into the database and later get them back.

How to disable a button when an input is empty?

its simple let us assume you have made an state full class by extending Component which contains following

class DisableButton extends Components 
   {

      constructor()
       {
         super();
         // now set the initial state of button enable and disable to be false
          this.state = {isEnable: false }
       }

  // this function checks the length and make button to be enable by updating the state
     handleButtonEnable(event)
       {
         const value = this.target.value;
         if(value.length > 0 )
        {
          // set the state of isEnable to be true to make the button to be enable
          this.setState({isEnable : true})
        }


       }

      // in render you having button and input 
     render() 
       {
          return (
             <div>
                <input
                   placeholder={"ANY_PLACEHOLDER"}
                   onChange={this.handleChangePassword}

                  />

               <button 
               onClick ={this.someFunction}
               disabled = {this.state.isEnable} 
              /> 

             <div/>
            )

       }

   }

ORA-00979 not a group by expression

Too bad Oracle has limitations like these. Sure, the result for a column not in the GROUP BY would be random, but sometimes you want that. Silly Oracle, you can do this in MySQL/MSSQL.

BUT there is a work around for Oracle:

While the following line does not work

SELECT unique_id_col, COUNT(1) AS cnt FROM yourTable GROUP BY col_A;

You can trick Oracle with some 0's like the following, to keep your column in scope, but not group by it (assuming these are numbers, otherwise use CONCAT)

SELECT MAX(unique_id_col) AS unique_id_col, COUNT(1) AS cnt 
FROM yourTable GROUP BY col_A, (unique_id_col*0 + col_A);

Generate list of all possible permutations of a string

Well here is an elegant, non-recursive, O(n!) solution:

public static StringBuilder[] permutations(String s) {
        if (s.length() == 0)
            return null;
        int length = fact(s.length());
        StringBuilder[] sb = new StringBuilder[length];
        for (int i = 0; i < length; i++) {
            sb[i] = new StringBuilder();
        }
        for (int i = 0; i < s.length(); i++) {
            char ch = s.charAt(i);
            int times = length / (i + 1);
            for (int j = 0; j < times; j++) {
                for (int k = 0; k < length / times; k++) {
                    sb[j * length / times + k].insert(k, ch);
                }
            }
        }
        return sb;
    }

Uninitialized constant ActiveSupport::Dependencies::Mutex (NameError)

I'm posting my solution for the other sleep-deprived souls out there:

If you're using RVM, double-check that you're in the correct folder, using the correct ruby version and gemset. I had an array of terminal tabs open, and one of them was in a different directory. typing "rails console" produced the error because my default rails distro is 2.3.x.

I noticed the error on my part, cd'd to the correct directory, and my .rvmrc file did the rest.

RVM is not like Git. In git, changing branches in one shell changes it everywhere. It's literally rewriting the files in question. RVM, on the other hand, is just setting shell variables, and must be set for each new shell you open.

In case you're not familiar with .rvmrc, you can put a file with that name in any directory, and rvm will pick it up and use the version/gemset specified therein, whenever you change to that directory. Here's a sample .rvmrc file:

rvm use 1.9.2@turtles

This will switch to the latest version of ruby 1.9.2 in your RVM collection, using the gemset "turtles". Now you can open up a hundred tabs in Terminal (as I end up doing) and never worry about the ruby version it's pointing to.

SQL Server: Multiple table joins with a WHERE clause

You need to do a LEFT JOIN.

SELECT Computer.ComputerName, Application.Name, Software.Version
FROM Computer
JOIN dbo.Software_Computer
    ON Computer.ID = Software_Computer.ComputerID
LEFT JOIN dbo.Software
    ON Software_Computer.SoftwareID = Software.ID
RIGHT JOIN dbo.Application
    ON Application.ID = Software.ApplicationID
WHERE Computer.ID = 1

Here is the explanation:

The result of a left outer join (or simply left join) for table A and B always contains all records of the "left" table (A), even if the join-condition does not find any matching record in the "right" table (B). This means that if the ON clause matches 0 (zero) records in B, the join will still return a row in the result—but with NULL in each column from B. This means that a left outer join returns all the values from the left table, plus matched values from the right table (or NULL in case of no matching join predicate). If the right table returns one row and the left table returns more than one matching row for it, the values in the right table will be repeated for each distinct row on the left table. From Oracle 9i onwards the LEFT OUTER JOIN statement can be used as well as (+).

Write to CSV file and export it?

How to write to a file (easy search in Google) ... 1st Search Result

As far as creation of the file each time a user accesses the page ... each access will act on it's own behalf. You business case will dictate the behavior.

Case 1 - same file but does not change (this type of case can have multiple ways of being defined)

You would have logic that created the file when needed and only access the file if generation is not needed.

Case 2 - each user needs to generate their own file

You would decide how you identify each user, create a file for each user and access the file they are supposed to see ... this can easily merge with Case 1. Then you delete the file after serving the content or not if it requires persistence.

Case 3 - same file but generation required for each access

Use Case 2, this will cause a generation each time but clean up once accessed.

How can I pass data from Flask to JavaScript in a template?

Some js files come from the web or library, they are not written by yourself. The code they get variable like this:

var queryString = document.location.search.substring(1);
var params = PDFViewerApplication.parseQueryString(queryString);
var file = 'file' in params ? params.file : DEFAULT_URL;

This method makes js files unchanged(keep independence), and pass variable correctly!

How to insert a line break before an element using CSS

Following CSS worked for me:

/* newline before element */
#myelementId:before{
    content:"\a";
    white-space: pre;
}

What is the most elegant way to check if all values in a boolean array are true?

In Java 8, you could do:

boolean isAllTrue = Arrays.asList(myArray).stream().allMatch(val -> val == true);

Or even shorter:

boolean isAllTrue = Arrays.stream(myArray).allMatch(Boolean::valueOf);

Note: You need Boolean[] for this solution to work. Because you can't have a primitives List.

How to prevent a browser from storing passwords

I just change the type attribute of the field password to hidden before the click event:

document.getElementById("password").setAttribute("type", "hidden");
document.getElementById("save").click();

Is it possible to have placeholders in strings.xml for runtime values?

A Direct Kotlin Solution to the problem:

strings.xml

<string name="customer_message">Hello, %1$s!\nYou have %2$d Products in your cart.</string>

kotlinActivityORFragmentFile.kt:

val username = "Andrew"
val products = 1000
val text: String = String.format(
      resources.getString(R.string.customer_message), username, products )

Setting graph figure size

A different approach.
On the figure() call specify properties or modify the figure handle properties after h = figure().

This creates a full screen figure based on normalized units.
figure('units','normalized','outerposition',[0 0 1 1])

The units property can be adjusted to inches, centimeters, pixels, etc.

See figure documentation.

Writing to CSV with Python adds blank lines

The way you use the csv module changed in Python 3 in several respects (docs), at least with respect to how you need to open the file. Anyway, something like

import csv
with open('test.csv', 'w', newline='') as fp:
    a = csv.writer(fp, delimiter=',')
    data = [['Me', 'You'],
            ['293', '219'],
            ['54', '13']]
    a.writerows(data)

should work.

Script to get the HTTP status code of a list of urls?

Use curl to fetch the HTTP-header only (not the whole file) and parse it:

$ curl -I  --stderr /dev/null http://www.google.co.uk/index.html | head -1 | cut -d' ' -f2
200

How to set the font size in Emacs?

(set-face-attribute 'default nil :height 100)

The value is in 1/10pt, so 100 will give you 10pt, etc.

Using logging in multiple modules

Actually every logger is a child of the parent's package logger (i.e. package.subpackage.module inherits configuration from package.subpackage), so all you need to do is just to configure the root logger. This can be achieved by logging.config.fileConfig (your own config for loggers) or logging.basicConfig (sets the root logger). Setup logging in your entry module (__main__.py or whatever you want to run, for example main_script.py. __init__.py works as well)

using basicConfig:

# package/__main__.py
import logging
import sys

logging.basicConfig(stream=sys.stdout, level=logging.INFO)

using fileConfig:

# package/__main__.py
import logging
import logging.config

logging.config.fileConfig('logging.conf')

and then create every logger using:

# package/submodule.py
# or
# package/subpackage/submodule.py
import logging
log = logging.getLogger(__name__)

log.info("Hello logging!")

For more information see Advanced Logging Tutorial.

Node.js/Express.js App Only Works on Port 3000

Just a note for Mac OS X and Linux users:

If you want to run your Node / Express app on a port number lower than 1024, you have to run as the superuser: sudo PORT=80 node app.js

How can I iterate JSONObject to get individual items

You can try this it will recursively find all key values in a json object and constructs as a map . You can simply get which key you want from the Map .

public static Map<String,String> parse(JSONObject json , Map<String,String> out) throws JSONException{
    Iterator<String> keys = json.keys();
    while(keys.hasNext()){
        String key = keys.next();
        String val = null;
        try{
             JSONObject value = json.getJSONObject(key);
             parse(value,out);
        }catch(Exception e){
            val = json.getString(key);
        }

        if(val != null){
            out.put(key,val);
        }
    }
    return out;
}

 public static void main(String[] args) throws JSONException {

    String json = "{'ipinfo': {'ip_address': '131.208.128.15','ip_type': 'Mapped','Location': {'continent': 'north america','latitude': 30.1,'longitude': -81.714,'CountryData': {'country': 'united states','country_code': 'us'},'region': 'southeast','StateData': {'state': 'florida','state_code': 'fl'},'CityData': {'city': 'fleming island','postal_code': '32003','time_zone': -5}}}}";

    JSONObject object = new JSONObject(json);

    JSONObject info = object.getJSONObject("ipinfo");

    Map<String,String> out = new HashMap<String, String>();

    parse(info,out);

    String latitude = out.get("latitude");
    String longitude = out.get("longitude");
    String city = out.get("city");
    String state = out.get("state");
    String country = out.get("country");
    String postal = out.get("postal_code");

    System.out.println("Latitude : " + latitude + " LongiTude : " + longitude + " City : "+city + " State : "+ state + " Country : "+country+" postal "+postal);

    System.out.println("ALL VALUE " + out);

}

Output:

    Latitude : 30.1 LongiTude : -81.714 City : fleming island State : florida Country : united states postal 32003
ALL VALUE {region=southeast, ip_type=Mapped, state_code=fl, state=florida, country_code=us, city=fleming island, country=united states, time_zone=-5, ip_address=131.208.128.15, postal_code=32003, continent=north america, longitude=-81.714, latitude=30.1}

ReactJS - Add custom event listener to component

First off, custom events don't play well with React components natively. So you cant just say <div onMyCustomEvent={something}> in the render function, and have to think around the problem.

Secondly, after taking a peek at the documentation for the library you're using, the event is actually fired on document.body, so even if it did work, your event handler would never trigger.

Instead, inside componentDidMount somewhere in your application, you can listen to nv-enter by adding

document.body.addEventListener('nv-enter', function (event) {
    // logic
});

Then, inside the callback function, hit a function that changes the state of the component, or whatever you want to do.

Remove leading zeros from a number in Javascript

We can use four methods for this conversion

parseInt with radix 10
Number Constructor
Unary Plus Operator
Using mathematical functions (subtraction)

_x000D_

const numString = "065";_x000D_
_x000D_
//parseInt with radix=10_x000D_
let number = parseInt(numString, 10);_x000D_
console.log(number);_x000D_
_x000D_
// Number constructor_x000D_
number = Number(numString);_x000D_
console.log(number);_x000D_
_x000D_
// unary plus operator_x000D_
number = +numString;_x000D_
console.log(number);_x000D_
_x000D_
// conversion using mathematical function (subtraction)_x000D_
number = numString - 0;_x000D_
console.log(number);

_x000D_

Update(based on comments): Why doesn't this work on "large numbers"?

For the primitive type Number, the safest max value is 2^53-1(Number.MAX_SAFE_INTEGER).

_x000D_

console.log(Number.MAX_SAFE_INTEGER);

_x000D_

Now, lets consider the number string '099999999999999999999' and try to convert it using the above methods

_x000D_

const numString = '099999999999999999999';_x000D_
_x000D_
let parsedNumber = parseInt(numString, 10);_x000D_
console.log(`parseInt(radix=10) result: ${parsedNumber}`);_x000D_
_x000D_
parsedNumber = Number(numString);_x000D_
console.log(`Number conversion result: ${parsedNumber}`);_x000D_
_x000D_
parsedNumber = +numString;_x000D_
console.log(`Appending Unary plus operator result: ${parsedNumber}`);_x000D_
_x000D_
parsedNumber = numString - 0;_x000D_
console.log(`Subtracting zero conversion result: ${parsedNumber}`);

_x000D_

All results will be incorrect.

That's because, when converted, the numString value is greater than Number.MAX_SAFE_INTEGER. i.e.,

99999999999999999999 > 9007199254740991

This means all operation performed with the assumption that the stringcan be converted to number type fails.

For numbers greater than 2⁵³, primitive BigInt has been added recently. Check browser compatibility of BigInthere.

The conversion code will be like this.

const numString = '099999999999999999999';
const number = BigInt(numString);

P.S: Why radix is important for `parseInt`?

If radix is undefined or 0 (or absent), JavaScript assumes the following:

If the input string begins with "0x" or "0X", radix is 16 (hexadecimal) and the remainder of the string is parsed
If the input string begins with "0", radix is eight (octal) or 10 (decimal)
If the input string begins with any other value, the radix is 10 (decimal)

Exactly which radix is chosen is implementation-dependent. ECMAScript 5 specifies that 10 (decimal) is used, but not all browsers support this yet.

For this reason, always specify a radix when using parseInt

Capitalize the first letter of both words in a two word string

The base R function to perform capitalization is toupper(x). From the help file for ?toupper there is this function that does what you need:

simpleCap <- function(x) {
  s <- strsplit(x, " ")[[1]]
  paste(toupper(substring(s, 1,1)), substring(s, 2),
      sep="", collapse=" ")
}

name <- c("zip code", "state", "final count")

sapply(name, simpleCap)

     zip code         state   final count 
   "Zip Code"       "State" "Final Count"

Edit This works for any string, regardless of word count:

simpleCap("I like pizza a lot")
[1] "I Like Pizza A Lot"

Comparing results with today's date?

For me the query that is working, if I want to compare with DrawDate for example is:

CAST(DrawDate AS DATE) = CAST (GETDATE() as DATE)

This is comparing results with today's date.

or the whole query:

SELECT TOP (1000) *
FROM test
where DrawName != 'NULL' and CAST(DrawDate AS DATE) = CAST (GETDATE() as DATE)
order by id desc

How to read the content of a file to a string in C?

Another, unfortunately highly OS-dependent, solution is memory mapping the file. The benefits generally include performance of the read, and reduced memory use as the applications view and operating systems file cache can actually share the physical memory.

POSIX code would look like this:

int fd = open("filename", O_RDONLY);
int len = lseek(fd, 0, SEEK_END);
void *data = mmap(0, len, PROT_READ, MAP_PRIVATE, fd, 0);

Windows on the other hand is little more tricky, and unfortunately I don't have a compiler in front of me to test, but the functionality is provided by CreateFileMapping() and MapViewOfFile().

How to switch to another domain and get-aduser

best solution TNX to Drew Chapin and all of you too:

I just want to add that if you don't inheritently know the name of a domain controller, you can get the closest one, pass it's hostname to the -Server argument.

$dc = Get-ADDomainController -DomainName example.com -Discover -NextClosestSite

Get-ADUser -Server $dc.HostName[0] `
    -Filter { EmailAddress -Like "*Smith_Karla*" } `
    -Properties EmailAddress

my script:

$dc = Get-ADDomainController -DomainName example.com -Discover -NextClosestSite
 Get-ADUser -Server $dc.HostName[0] ` -Filter { EmailAddress -Like "*Smith_Karla*" } `  -Properties EmailAddress | Export-CSV "C:\Scripts\Email.csv

IntelliJ IDEA shows errors when using Spring's @Autowired annotation

in my case I was missing to write in web.xml:

    <listener>
        <listener-class>org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener</listener-class>
    </listener>

    <listener>
        <listener-class>org.springframework.web.context.request.RequestContextListener</listener-class>
    </listener>

   <context-param>
      <param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name>
      <param-value>classpath*:applicationContext.xml</param-value>
   </context-param>

and in the application context file:

<context:component-scan base-package=[your package name] />

after add this tags and run maven to rebuild project the autowired error in intellj desapears and the bean icon appears in the left margin:

Get the data received in a Flask request

Use request.get_json() to get posted JSON data.

data = request.get_json()
name = data.get('name', '')

Use request.form to get data when submitting a form with the POST method.

name = request.form.get('name', '')

Use request.args to get data passed in the query string of the URL, like when submitting a form with the GET method.

request.args.get("name", "")

request.form etc. are dict-like, use the get method to get a value with a default if it wasn't passed.

Parse string to DateTime in C#

The simple and straightforward answer -->

using System;

namespace DemoApp.App

{
public class TestClassDate
{
    public static DateTime GetDate(string string_date)
    {
        DateTime dateValue;
        if (DateTime.TryParse(string_date, out dateValue))
            Console.WriteLine("Converted '{0}' to {1}.", string_date, dateValue);
        else
            Console.WriteLine("Unable to convert '{0}' to a date.", string_date);
        return dateValue;
    }
    public static void Main()
    {
        string inString = "05/01/2009 06:32:00";
        GetDate(inString);
    }
}
}

/**
 * Output:
 * Converted '05/01/2009 06:32:00' to 5/1/2009 6:32:00 AM.

CSS :: child set to change color on parent hover, but changes also when hovered itself

If you don't care about supporting old browsers, you can use :not() to exclude that element:

.parent:hover span:not(:hover) {
    border: 10px solid red;
}

Demo: http://jsfiddle.net/vz9A9/1/

If you do want to support them, the I guess you'll have to either use JavaScript or override the CSS properties again:

.parent span:hover {
    border: 10px solid green;
}

SSIS package creating Hresult: 0x80004005 Description: "Login timeout expired" error

I had a similar error..This might be due to two reasons. a) If you have used variables, re-evaluate the expressions in which variables are used and make sure the expression is evaluated without errors. b) If you are deleting the excel sheet and creating excel sheet on the fly in your package.

AngularJS - get element attributes values

If you are using Angular2+ following code will help

You can use following syntax to get attribute value from html element

//to retrieve html element

const element = fixture.debugElement.nativeElement.querySelector('name of element'); // example a, h1, p

//get attribute value from that element

  const attributeValue = element.attributeName // like textContent/href

Truncate (not round off) decimal numbers in javascript

Number.prototype.trim = function(decimals) {
    var s = this.toString();
    var d = s.split(".");
    d[1] = d[1].substring(0, decimals);
    return parseFloat(d.join("."));
}

console.log((5.676).trim(2)); //logs 5.67

How do I make a branch point at a specific commit?

If you are currently not on branch master, that's super easy:

git branch -f master 1258f0d0aae

This does exactly what you want: It points master at the given commit, and does nothing else.

If you are currently on master, you need to get into detached head state first. I'd recommend the following two command sequence:

git checkout 1258f0d0aae    #detach from master
git branch -f master HEAD   #exactly as above

#optionally reattach to master
git checkout master

Be aware, though, that any explicit manipulation of where a branch points has the potential to leave behind commits that are no longer reachable by any branches, and thus become object to garbage collection. So, think before you type git branch -f!

This method is better than the git reset --hard approach, as it does not destroy anything in the index or working directory.

What's the difference between struct and class in .NET?

There is one interesting case of "class vs struct" puzzle - situation when you need to return several results from the method: choose which to use. If you know the ValueTuple story - you know that ValueTuple (struct) was added because it should be more effective then Tuple (class). But what does it mean in numbers? Two tests: one is struct/class that have 2 fields, other with struct/class that have 8 fields (with dimension more then 4 - class should become more effective then struct in terms processor ticks, but of course GC load also should be considered).

P.S. Another benchmark for specific case 'sturct or class with collections' is there: https://stackoverflow.com/a/45276657/506147

How to return a specific status code and no contents from Controller?

The best way to do it is:

return this.StatusCode(StatusCodes.Status418ImATeapot, "Error message");

'StatusCodes' has every kind of return status and you can see all of them in this link https://httpstatuses.com/

Once you choose your StatusCode, return it with a message.

Eclipse projects not showing up after placing project files in workspace/projects

I just wish to add one important detail to the answers above. And it is that even if you import the projects from your chosen root directory they may not appear in bold so you won't be able to select them. The reason for this may be that the metadata of the projects is corrupted. If you do encounter this problem then the easiest and quickest way to fix it is to rid yourself of the workspace-folder and create a new one and copy+paste your projects (do it before you erase the old workspace) folders to this new workspace. Then, in your new worskapce, import the projects as the previous posts have explained.

How to insert a timestamp in Oracle?

For my own future reference:

With cx_Oracle use cursor.setinputsize(...):

mycursor = connection.cursor();

mycursor.setinputsize( mytimestamp=cx_Oracle.TIMESTAMP );
params = { 'mytimestamp': timestampVar };
cusrsor.execute("INSERT INTO mytable (timestamp_field9 VALUES(:mytimestamp)", params);

No converting in the db needed. See Oracle Documentation

Color theme for VS Code integrated terminal

The best colors I've found --which aside from being so beautiful, are very easy to look at too and do not boil my eyes-- are the ones I've found listed in this GitHub repository: VSCode Snazzy

Very Easy Installation:

Copy the contents of snazzy.json into your VS Code "settings.json" file.

(In case you don't know how to open the "settings.json" file, first hit Ctrl+Shift+P and then write Preferences: open settings(JSON) and hit enter).

Notice: For those who have tried ColorTool and it works outside VSCode but not inside VSCode, you've made no mistakes in implementing it, that's just a decision of VSCode developers for the VSCode's terminal to be colored independently.

Use of "global" keyword in Python

Any variable declared outside of a function is assumed to be global, it's only when declaring them from inside of functions (except constructors) that you must specify that the variable be global.

How to fix an UnsatisfiedLinkError (Can't find dependent libraries) in a JNI project

I used to have exactly the same problem, and finally it was solved.

I put all the dependent DLLs into the same folder where mylib.dll was stored and make sure the JAVA Compiler could find it (if there is no mylib.dll in the compilation path, there would be an error reporting this during compiling). The important thing you need to notice is you must make sure all the dependent libs are of the same version with mylib.dll, for example if your mylib.dll is release version then you should also put the release version of all its dependent libs there.

Hope this could help others who have encountered the same problem.

Calling a PHP function from an HTML form in the same file

You can submit the form without refreshing the page, but to my knowledge it is impossible without using a JavaScript/Ajax call to a PHP script on your server. The following example uses the jQuery JavaScript library.

HTML

<form method = 'post' action = '' id = 'theForm'>
...
</form>

JavaScript

$(function() {
    $("#theForm").submit(function() {
        var data = "a=5&b=6&c=7";
        $.ajax({
            url: "path/to/php/file.php",
            data: data,
            success: function(html) {
                .. anything you want to do upon success here ..
                alert(html); // alert the output from the PHP Script
            }
        });
        return false;
    });
});

Upon submission, the anonymous Javascript function will be called, which simply sends a request to your PHP file (which will need to be in a separate file, btw). The data above needs to be a URL-encoded query string that you want to send to the PHP file (basically all of the current values of the form fields). These will appear to your server-side PHP script in the $_GET super global. An example is below.

var data = "a=5&b=6&c=7";

If that is your data string, then the PHP script will see this as:

echo($_GET['a']); // 5
echo($_GET['b']); // 6
echo($_GET['c']); // 7

You, however, will need to construct the data from the form fields as they exist for your form, such as:

var data = "user=" + $("#user").val();

(You will need to tag each form field with an 'id', the above id is 'user'.)

After the PHP script runs, the success function is called, and any and all output produced by the PHP script will be stored in the variable html.

...
success: function(html) {
    alert(html);
}
...

How can I play sound in Java?

I didn't want to have so many lines of code just to play a simple damn sound. This can work if you have the JavaFX package (already included in my jdk 8).

private static void playSound(String sound){
    // cl is the ClassLoader for the current class, ie. CurrentClass.class.getClassLoader();
    URL file = cl.getResource(sound);
    final Media media = new Media(file.toString());
    final MediaPlayer mediaPlayer = new MediaPlayer(media);
    mediaPlayer.play();
}

Notice : You need to initialize JavaFX. A quick way to do that, is to call the constructor of JFXPanel() once in your app :

static{
    JFXPanel fxPanel = new JFXPanel();
}

How to edit the legend entry of a chart in Excel?

There are 3 ways to do this:

1. Define the Series names directly

Right-click on the Chart and click Select Data then edit the series names directly as shown below.

You can either specify the values directly e.g. Series 1 or specify a range e.g. =A2

2. Create a chart defining upfront the series and axis labels

Simply select your data range (in similar format as I specified) and create a simple bar chart. The labels should be defined automatically.

3. Define the legend (series names) using VBA

Similarly you can define the series names dynamically using VBA. A simple example below:

ActiveChart.ChartArea.Select
ActiveChart.FullSeriesCollection(1).Name = "=""Hello"""

This will redefine the first series name. Just change the index from (1) to e.g. (2) and so on to change the following series names. What does the VBA above do? It sets the series name to Hello as "=""Hello""" translates to ="Hello" (" have to be escaped by a preceding ").

How do I rename the android package name?

The best way to solve this is going to the AndroidManifest.xml: package="com.foocomp.fooapp:

Set the cursor on "foocomp"
Press Shift+F6
Rename Package to whatever you want
Repeat for "fooapp".

Works for me.

Also, replace in Path in Whole Project as it didn't change everything. Then Clean, Rebuild and it works --> In Android Studio / IntelliJ you should unmark "Compact Empty Middle Packages"

Java 8 Stream and operation on arrays

There are new methods added to java.util.Arrays to convert an array into a Java 8 stream which can then be used for summing etc.

int sum =  Arrays.stream(myIntArray)
                 .sum();

Multiplying two arrays is a little more difficult because I can't think of a way to get the value AND the index at the same time as a Stream operation. This means you probably have to stream over the indexes of the array.

//in this example a[] and b[] are same length
int[] a = ...
int[] b = ...

int[] result = new int[a.length];

IntStream.range(0, a.length)
         .forEach(i -> result[i] = a[i] * b[i]);

EDIT

Commenter @Holger points out you can use the map method instead of forEach like this:

int[] result = IntStream.range(0, a.length).map(i -> a[i] * b[i]).toArray();

How to get a json string from url?

Use the WebClient class in System.Net:

var json = new WebClient().DownloadString("url");

Keep in mind that WebClient is IDisposable, so you would probably add a using statement to this in production code. This would look like:

using (WebClient wc = new WebClient())
{
   var json = wc.DownloadString("url");
}

How do I concatenate two strings in C?

Concatenate Strings

Concatenating any two strings in C can be done in atleast 3 ways :-

1) By copying string 2 to the end of string 1

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#define MAX 100
int main()
{
  char str1[MAX],str2[MAX];
  int i,j=0;
  printf("Input string 1: ");
  gets(str1);
  printf("\nInput string 2: ");
  gets(str2);
  for(i=strlen(str1);str2[j]!='\0';i++)  //Copying string 2 to the end of string 1
  {
     str1[i]=str2[j];
     j++;
  }
  str1[i]='\0';
  printf("\nConcatenated string: ");
  puts(str1);
  return 0;
}

2) By copying string 1 and string 2 to string 3

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#define MAX 100
int main()
{
  char str1[MAX],str2[MAX],str3[MAX];
  int i,j=0,count=0;
  printf("Input string 1: ");
  gets(str1);
  printf("\nInput string 2: ");
  gets(str2);
  for(i=0;str1[i]!='\0';i++)          //Copying string 1 to string 3
  {
    str3[i]=str1[i];
    count++;
  }
  for(i=count;str2[j]!='\0';i++)     //Copying string 2 to the end of string 3
  {
    str3[i]=str2[j];
    j++;
  }
  str3[i]='\0';
  printf("\nConcatenated string : ");
  puts(str3);
  return 0;
}

3) By using strcat() function

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#define MAX 100
int main()
{
  char str1[MAX],str2[MAX];
  printf("Input string 1: ");
  gets(str1);
  printf("\nInput string 2: ");
  gets(str2);
  strcat(str1,str2);                    //strcat() function
  printf("\nConcatenated string : ");
  puts(str1);
  return 0;
}

How to center HTML5 Videos?

I was having the same problem, until I realized that <video> elements are inline elements, not block elements. You need only set the container element to have text-align: center; in order to center the video horizontally on the page.

I'm getting an error "invalid use of incomplete type 'class map'

Your first usage of Map is inside a function in the combat class. That happens before Map is defined, hence the error.

A forward declaration only says that a particular class will be defined later, so it's ok to reference it or have pointers to objects, etc. However a forward declaration does not say what members a class has, so as far as the compiler is concerned you can't use any of them until Map is fully declared.

The solution is to follow the C++ pattern of the class declaration in a .h file and the function bodies in a .cpp. That way all the declarations appear before the first definitions, and the compiler knows what it's working with.

How do I check in SQLite whether a table exists?

Note that to check whether a table exists in the TEMP database, you must use sqlite_temp_master instead of sqlite_master:

SELECT name FROM sqlite_temp_master WHERE type='table' AND name='table_name';

Oracle: Call stored procedure inside the package

To those that are incline to use GUI:

How can I view all historical changes to a file in SVN

There's no built-in command for it, so I usually just do something like this:

#!/bin/bash

# history_of_file
#
# Outputs the full history of a given file as a sequence of
# logentry/diff pairs.  The first revision of the file is emitted as
# full text since there's not previous version to compare it to.

function history_of_file() {
    url=$1 # current url of file
    svn log -q $url | grep -E -e "^r[[:digit:]]+" -o | cut -c2- | sort -n | {

#       first revision as full text
        echo
        read r
        svn log -r$r $url@HEAD
        svn cat -r$r $url@HEAD
        echo

#       remaining revisions as differences to previous revision
        while read r
        do
            echo
            svn log -r$r $url@HEAD
            svn diff -c$r $url@HEAD
            echo
        done
    }
}

Then, you can call it with:

history_of_file $1

Maximize a window programmatically and prevent the user from changing the windows state

Change the property WindowState to System.Windows.Forms.FormWindowState.Maximized, in some cases if the older answers doesn't works.

So the window will be maximized, and the other parts are in the other answers.

Xcode5 "No matching provisioning profiles found issue" (but good at xcode4)

I had the same error today, with XCode 6.1

What I found was that, no matter what I tried, I couldn't get XCode to stop complaining about this Provisioning Profile with a GUID as its name.

The solution was to search for this GUID in the .pbxproj file, which lives within the XCode .xcodeproj folder.

Just find the line containing your GUID:

PROVISIONING_PROFILE = "A9234343-.....34"

and change it to:

PROVISIONING_PROFILE = ""

One other thing to check: Your XCode PROJECT settings contain your Provisioning Profile & Code Signing settings, but, there is a second set under your project's "TARGETS" tab.

So, if XCode is complaining about a Provisioning Profile which isn't the one quoted in your project settings, then go have have a look at the settings shown under "TARGETS" in your XCode project.

(I wish someone had given me this advice, 4 painful hours ago..)

No module named Image

You can this query:

pip install image

I had pillow installed, and still, I got the error that you mentioned. But after I executed the above command, the error vanished. And My program worked perfectly.

Xcode 10: A valid provisioning profile for this executable was not found

[edit] Note 2020: I used to manual sign this project. In projects where I automatically signed, I never had this issue. [/edit]

I had the same problem, and spent hours searching for an answer, removing profiles, cleaning project, and so on.

Have you distributed your app? You need to switch back to your developer profile, but not in General under the project settings, but in Build settings.

Under Signing, look at your Code Signing Identity.

Make sure that both your Debug and Release are set your iOS Developer, and not iOS Distribution; or your iOS Developer Provisioning profile, if not set to the automatic values.

The same goes with Provisioning Profile. It should be your developing profile, and not your distribution profile.

Hope this will help future developers in need.

How to install Python package from GitHub?

You need to use the proper git URL:

pip install git+https://github.com/jkbr/httpie.git#egg=httpie

Also see the VCS Support section of the pip documentation.

Don’t forget to include the egg=<projectname> part to explicitly name the project; this way pip can track metadata for it without having to have run the setup.py script.

How can I search an array in VB.NET?

check this..

        string[] strArray = { "ABC", "BCD", "CDE", "DEF", "EFG", "FGH", "GHI" };
        Array.IndexOf(strArray, "C"); // not found, returns -1
        Array.IndexOf(strArray, "CDE"); // found, returns index

Git push won't do anything (everything up-to-date)

Instead, you could try the following. You don't have to go to master; you can directly force push the changes from your branch itself.

As explained above, when you do a rebase, you are changing the history on your branch. As a result, if you try to do a normal git push after a rebase, Git will reject it because there isn't a direct path from the commit on the server to the commit on your branch. Instead, you'll need to use the -f or --force flag to tell Git that yes, you really know what you're doing. When doing force pushes, it is highly recommended that you set your push.default config setting to simple, which is the default in Git 2.0. To make sure that your configuration is correct, run:

$ git config --global push.default simple

Once it's correct, you can just run:

$ git push -f

And check your pull request. It should be updated!

Go to bottom of How to Rebase a Pull Request for more details.

SQL query to get most recent row for each instance of a given key

Try this:

Select u.[username]
      ,u.[ip]
      ,q.[time_stamp]
From [users] As u
Inner Join (
    Select [username]
          ,max(time_stamp) as [time_stamp]
    From [users]
    Group By [username]) As [q]
On u.username = q.username
And u.time_stamp = q.time_stamp

How do I shrink my SQL Server Database?

You also have to modify the minimum size of the data and log files. DBCC SHRINKDATABASE will shrink the data inside the files you already have allocated. To shrink a file to a size smaller than its minimum size, use DBCC SHRINKFILE and specify the new size.

Longer object length is not a multiple of shorter object length?

Yes, this is something that you should worry about. Check the length of your objects with nrow(). R can auto-replicate objects so that they're the same length if they differ, which means you might be performing operations on mismatched data.

In this case you have an obvious flaw in that your subtracting aggregated data from raw data. These will definitely be of different lengths. I suggest that you merge them as time series (using the dates), then locf(), then do your subtraction. Otherwise merge them by truncating the original dates to the same interval as the aggregated series. Just be very careful that you don't drop observations.

Lastly, as some general advice as you get started: look at the result of your computations to see if they make sense. You might even pull them into a spreadsheet and replicate the results.

Assumes MyString to be a char[], Method return after verification of the string, it ignores space and <,>, but this can be extended to ignore more, probably impleemnt a regex match of ignore list.

public bool IsPalindrome()
            if (MyString.Length == 0)
                return false;

            int len = MyString.Length - 1;

            int first = 0;
            int second = 0;

            for (int i = 0, j = len; i <= len / 2; i++, j--)
            {
                while (i<j && MyString[i] == ' ' || MyString[i] == ',')
                    i++;

                while(j>i && MyString[j] == ' ' || MyString[j] == ',')
                    j--;

                if ((i == len / 2) && (i == j))
                    return true;

                first = MyString[i] >= 97 && MyString[i] <= 122 ? MyString[i] - 32 : MyString[i];
                second = MyString[j] >= 97 && MyString[j] <= 122 ? MyString[j] - 32 : MyString[j];

                if (first != second)
                    return false;
            }

            return true;
  }

MySQL > Table doesn't exist. But it does (or it should)

If there's a period in the table name, it will fail for SELECT * FROM poorly_named.table;

Use backticks to get it to find the table SELECT * FROM `poorly_named.table`;

How do I calculate the date six months from the current date using the datetime Python module?

How about this? Not using another library (dateutil) or timedelta? building on vartec's answer I did this and I believe it works:

import datetime

today = datetime.date.today()
six_months_from_today = datetime.date(today.year + (today.month + 6)/12, (today.month + 6) % 12, today.day)

I tried using timedelta, but because it is counting the days, 365/2 or 6*356/12 does not always translate to 6 months, but rather 182 days. e.g.

day = datetime.date(2015, 3, 10)
print day
>>> 2015-03-10

print (day + datetime.timedelta(6*365/12))
>>> 2015-09-08

I believe that we usually assume that 6 month's from a certain day will land on the same day of the month but 6 months later (i.e. 2015-03-10 --> 2015-09-10, Not 2015-09-08)

I hope you find this helpful.

When to use AtomicReference in Java?

When do we use AtomicReference?

AtomicReference is flexible way to update the variable value atomically without use of synchronization.

AtomicReference support lock-free thread-safe programming on single variables.

There are multiple ways of achieving Thread safety with high level concurrent API. Atomic variables is one of the multiple options.

Lock objects support locking idioms that simplify many concurrent applications.

Executors define a high-level API for launching and managing threads. Executor implementations provided by java.util.concurrent provide thread pool management suitable for large-scale applications.

Concurrent collections make it easier to manage large collections of data, and can greatly reduce the need for synchronization.

Atomic variables have features that minimize synchronization and help avoid memory consistency errors.

Provide a simple example where AtomicReference should be used.

Sample code with AtomicReference:

String initialReference = "value 1";

AtomicReference<String> someRef =
    new AtomicReference<String>(initialReference);

String newReference = "value 2";
boolean exchanged = someRef.compareAndSet(initialReference, newReference);
System.out.println("exchanged: " + exchanged);

Is it needed to create objects in all multithreaded programs?

You don't have to use AtomicReference in all multi threaded programs.

If you want to guard a single variable, use AtomicReference. If you want to guard a code block, use other constructs like Lock /synchronized etc.

Declare and assign multiple string variables at the same time

^{All the information is in the existing answers, but I personally wished for a concise summary, so here's an attempt at it; the commands use int variables for brevity, but they apply analogously to any type, including string.}

To declare multiple variables and:

either: initialize them each:

int i = 0, j = 1; // declare and initialize each; `var` is NOT supported as of C# 8.0

or: initialize them all to the same value:

int i, j;    // *declare* first (`var` is NOT supported)
i = j = 42;  // then *initialize* 

// Single-statement alternative that is perhaps visually less obvious:
// Initialize the first variable with the desired value, then use 
// the first variable to initialize the remaining ones.
int i = 42, j = i, k = i;

What doesn't work:

You cannot use var in the above statements, because var only works with (a) a declaration that has an initialization value (from which the type can be inferred), and (b), as of C# 8.0, if that declaration is the only one in the statement (otherwise you'll get compilation error error CS0819: Implicitly-typed variables cannot have multiple declarators).
Placing an initialization value only after the last variable in a multiple-declarations statement initializes the last variable only:

~~int i, j = 1;~~// initializes *only* j

How to disable right-click context-menu in JavaScript

If your page really relies on the fact that people won't be able to see that menu, you should know that modern browsers (for example Firefox) let the user decide if he really wants to disable it or not. So you have no guarantee at all that the menu would be really disabled.

How to set the allowed url length for a nginx request (error code: 414, uri too large)

From: http://nginx.org/r/large_client_header_buffers

Syntax: large_client_header_buffers number size ;
Default: large_client_header_buffers 4 8k;
Context: http, server

Sets the maximum number and size of buffers used for reading large client request header. A request line cannot exceed the size of one buffer, or the 414 (Request-URI Too Large) error is returned to the client. A request header field cannot exceed the size of one buffer as well, or the 400 (Bad Request) error is returned to the client. Buffers are allocated only on demand. By default, the buffer size is equal to 8K bytes. If after the end of request processing a connection is transitioned into the keep-alive state, these buffers are released.

so you need to change the size parameter at the end of that line to something bigger for your needs.

python: create list of tuples from lists

You're after the zip function.

Taken directly from the question: How to merge lists into a list of tuples in Python?

>>> list_a = [1, 2, 3, 4]
>>> list_b = [5, 6, 7, 8]
>>> zip(list_a,list_b)
[(1, 5), (2, 6), (3, 7), (4, 8)]

Post parameter is always null

I've ran into this problem as well, and this is how I solved my problem

webapi code:

public void Post([FromBody] dynamic data)
{
    string value = data.value;
    /* do stuff */
}

client code:

$.post( "webapi/address", { value: "some value" } );

Can I use conditional statements with EJS templates (in JMVC)?

For others that stumble on this, you can also use ejs params/props in conditional statements:

recipes.js File:

app.get("/recipes", function(req, res) {
    res.render("recipes.ejs", {
        recipes: recipes
    });
});

recipes.ejs File:

<%if (recipes.length > 0) { %>
// Do something with more than 1 recipe
<% } %>
