Programs & Examples On #Java platform module system

Project Jigsaw aims to design and implement a standard module system for the Java SE platform. It was released as part of Java 9.

what is an illegal reflective access

If you want to go with the add-open option, here's a command to find which module provides which package ->

java --list-modules | tr @ " " | awk '{ print $1 }' | xargs -n1 java -d

the name of the module will be shown with the @ while the name of the packages without it

NOTE: tested with JDK 11

IMPORTANT: obviously is better than the provider of the package does not do the illegal access

Git pull command from different user

Your question is a little unclear, but if what you're doing is trying to get your friend's latest changes, then typically what your friend needs to do is to push those changes up to a remote repo (like one hosted on GitHub), and then you fetch or pull those changes from the remote:

  1. Your friend pushes his changes to GitHub:

    git push origin <branch>

  2. Clone the remote repository if you haven't already:

    git clone https://[email protected]/abc/theproject.git

  3. Fetch or pull your friend's changes (unnecessary if you just cloned in step #2 above):

    git fetch origin
git merge origin/<branch>

    Note that git pull is the same as doing the two steps above:

    git pull origin <branch>

Easy login script without database

Try this:

        $userinfo = array(
            'user'=>'5d41402abc4b2a76b9719d911017c592', //Hello...

                $_SESSION['username'] = $_POST['username'];
            }else {
                header("location:403.html"); //replace with 403

Add centered text to the middle of a <hr/>-like line

You can accomplish this without <hr />. Semantically, design should be done with the means of CSS, in this case it is quite possible.

div.header
{
  position: relative;
  text-align: center;
  padding: 0 10px;
  background: #ffffff;
}

div.line
{
  position: absolute;
  top: 50%;
  border-top: 1px dashed;
  z-index: -1;
}

<div class="header">
  Next section
  <div class="line">&nbsp;</div>
</div>

How to pass a file path which is in assets folder to File(String path)?

Unless you unpack them, assets remain inside the apk. Accordingly, there isn't a path you can feed into a File. The path you've given in your question will work with/in a WebView, but I think that's a special case for WebView.

You'll need to unpack the file or use it directly.

If you have a Context, you can use context.getAssets().open("myfoldername/myfilename"); to open an InputStream on the file. With the InputStream you can use it directly, or write it out somewhere (after which you can use it with File).

Android SDK Manager gives "Failed to fetch URL https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/repository/repository.xml" error when selecting repository

I got the solution for the Android Studio installation after trying everything that I could find on the Internet. If you're using Android Studio and getting this error:

Find [Path_to_Android_SDK]\sdk\tools\android.bat. In my case, it was in C:\Users\Nathan\AppData\Local\Android\android-studio\sdk\tools\android.bat.

Right-click it, hit Edit, and scroll all the way down to the bottom.

Find where it says: call %java_exe% %REMOTE_DEBUG% ...

Replace that with call %java_exe% -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true %REMOTE_DEBUG% ...

Restart Android Studio/SDK and everything works. This fixed many issues for me, including being unable to fetch XML files or create new projects.

How do you use MySQL's source command to import large files in windows

Hello I had the same problem but I tried many different states and I came to it: SOURCE doesn't work with ; at the end in my case:

SOURCE D:\Barname-Narmafzar\computer programming's languages\SQL\MySQL\dataAug-12-2019\dataAug-12-2019.sql;

and the error was:

ERROR: Unknown command '\B'. '> it also didn't work with a quotation for the address. But it works without ; at the end:

SOURCE D:\Barname-Narmafzar\computer programming's languages\SQL\MySQL\dataAug-12-2019\dataAug-12-2019.sql

But remember to use USE database_name; before that. I think it's so because the SOURCE or USE or HELP are for the Mysql itself and they are not such query codes although when you write HELP it says:

"Note that all text commands must be first on line and end with ; ".

but here doesn't work.

I should say that I have done it in CMD and I didn't try it in Mysql Workbench. That was it

This is the result

Python set to list

This will work:

>>> t = [1,1,2,2,3,3,4,5]
>>> print list(set(t))
[1,2,3,4,5]

However, if you have used "list" or "set" as a variable name you will get the:

TypeError: 'set' object is not callable

eg:

>>> set = [1,1,2,2,3,3,4,5]
>>> print list(set(set))
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: 'list' object is not callable

Same error will occur if you have used "list" as a variable name.

Lists in ConfigParser

There is nothing stopping you from packing the list into a delimited string and then unpacking it once you get the string from the config. If you did it this way your config section would look like:

[Section 3]
barList=item1,item2

It's not pretty but it's functional for most simple lists.

How to change the default collation of a table?

It sets the default collation for the table; if you create a new column, that should be collated with latin_general_ci -- I think. Try specifying the collation for the individual column and see if that works. MySQL has some really bizarre behavior in regards to the way it handles this.

How to hide Bootstrap modal with javascript?

I was experiencing the same problem, and after a bit of experimentation I found a solution. In my click handler, I needed to stop the event from bubbling up, like so:

$("a.close").on("click", function(e){
  $("#modal").modal("hide");
  e.stopPropagation();
});

How can I autoformat/indent C code in vim?

Maybe you can try the followings $indent -kr -i8 *.c

Hope it's useful for you!

Bootstrap Alert Auto Close

Using a fadeTo() that is fading to an opacity of 500 in 2 seconds in "I Can Has Kittenz"'s code isn't readable to me. I think it's better using other options like a delay()

$(".alert").delay(4000).slideUp(200, function() {
    $(this).alert('close');
});

Convert HttpPostedFileBase to byte[]

As Darin says, you can read from the input stream - but I'd avoid relying on all the data being available in a single go. If you're using .NET 4 this is simple:

MemoryStream target = new MemoryStream();
model.File.InputStream.CopyTo(target);
byte[] data = target.ToArray();

It's easy enough to write the equivalent of CopyTo in .NET 3.5 if you want. The important part is that you read from HttpPostedFileBase.InputStream.

For efficient purposes you could check whether the stream returned is already a MemoryStream:

byte[] data;
using (Stream inputStream = model.File.InputStream)
{
    MemoryStream memoryStream = inputStream as MemoryStream;
    if (memoryStream == null)
    {
        memoryStream = new MemoryStream();
        inputStream.CopyTo(memoryStream);
    }
    data = memoryStream.ToArray();
}

Using bootstrap with bower

The css and js files are located within the package: bootstrap/docs/assets/

UPDATE:

since v3 there is a dist folder in the package that contains all css, js and fonts.

Another option (if you just want to fetch single files) might be: pulldown. Configuration is extremely simple and you can easily add your own files/urls to the list.

Stick button to right side of div

It depends on what exactly you want to achieve.

If you just want to have it on the right, then I'd recommend against using position absolute, because it opens a whole can of worms down the line.

The HTML can also be unchanged:

HTML

<div>
    <h1> Ok </h1>
    <button type='button'>Button</button>
</div>

the CSS then should be something along the lines of:

CSS

div {
    background: purple;
    overflow: hidden;
}

div h1 {
    text-align: center;
    display: inline-block;
    width: 100%;
    margin-right: -50%;
}

div button {
    float: right;
}

You can see it in action here: http://jsfiddle.net/azhH5/

If you can change the HTML, then it gets a bit simpler:

HTML

<div>
    <button type='button'>Button</button>
    <h1> Ok </h1>
</div>

CSS

div {
    background: purple;
    overflow: hidden;
}

div h1 {
    text-align: center;
}

div button {
    float: right;
    margin-left: -50%;
}

You can see it in action: http://jsfiddle.net/8WA3k/1/

If you want to have the button on the same line as the Text, you can achieve it by doing this:

HTML

<div>
    <button type='button'>Button</button>
    <h1> Ok </h1>
</div>

CSS

div {
    background: purple;
    overflow: hidden;
}

div h1 {
    text-align: center;
}

div button {
    float: right;
    margin-left: -50%;
    margin-top: 2em;
}

You an see that in action here: http://jsfiddle.net/EtqVh/1/

Cleary in the lest example you'd have to adjust the margin-top for the specified font-size of the <h1>

EDIT:

As you can see, it doesn't get popped out of the <div>, it's till inside. this is achieved by two things: the negative margin on the <button>, and the overflow: hidden; on the <div>

EDIT 2:

I just saw that you also want it to be a bit away from the margin on the right. That's easily achievable with this method. Just add margin-right: 1em; to the <button>, like this:

div {
    background: purple;
    overflow: hidden;
}

div h1 {
    text-align: center;
}

div button {
    float: right;
    margin-left: -50%;
    margin-top: 2em;
    margin-right: 1em;
}

How to install a specific version of a ruby gem?

Use the --version parameter (shortcut -v):

$ gem install rails -v 0.14.1

You can also use version comparators like >= or ~>

$ gem install rails -v '~> 0.14.0'

Or with newer versions of gem even:

$ gem install rails:0.14.4 rubyzip:'< 1'
…
Successfully installed rails-0.14.4

How to convert rdd object to dataframe in spark

Method 1: (Scala)

val sqlContext = new org.apache.spark.sql.SQLContext(sc)
import sqlContext.implicits._
val df_2 = sc.parallelize(Seq((1L, 3.0, "a"), (2L, -1.0, "b"), (3L, 0.0, "c"))).toDF("x", "y", "z")

Method 2: (Scala)

case class temp(val1: String,val3 : Double) 

val rdd = sc.parallelize(Seq(
  Row("foo",  0.5), Row("bar",  0.0)
))
val rows = rdd.map({case Row(val1:String,val3:Double) => temp(val1,val3)}).toDF()
rows.show()

Method 1: (Python)

from pyspark.sql import Row
l = [('Alice',2)]
Person = Row('name','age')
rdd = sc.parallelize(l)
person = rdd.map(lambda r:Person(*r))
df2 = sqlContext.createDataFrame(person)
df2.show()

Method 2: (Python)

from pyspark.sql.types import * 
l = [('Alice',2)]
rdd = sc.parallelize(l)
schema =  StructType([StructField ("name" , StringType(), True) , 
StructField("age" , IntegerType(), True)]) 
df3 = sqlContext.createDataFrame(rdd, schema) 
df3.show()

Extracted the value from the row object and then applied the case class to convert rdd to DF

val temp1 = attrib1.map{case Row ( key: Int ) => s"$key" }
val temp2 = attrib2.map{case Row ( key: Int) => s"$key" }

case class RLT (id: String, attrib_1 : String, attrib_2 : String)
import hiveContext.implicits._

val df = result.map{ s => RLT(s(0),s(1),s(2)) }.toDF

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

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

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

Google Public DNS

Preferred DNS server : 8.8.8.8
Alternate DNS server : 8.8.4.4

OpenDNS

Preferred DNS server : 208.67.222.222
Alternate DNS server : 208.67.220.220

Psexec "run as (remote) admin"

Use psexec -s

The s switch will cause it to run under system account which is the same as running an elevated admin prompt. just used it to enable WinRM remotely.

What was the strangest coding standard rule that you were forced to follow?

I ran into two rules that I really hated on a C job a few years ago:

  1. "One module per file," where "module" was defined as a C function.

  2. Function-local variables allowed only at the top of the function, so this sort of thing was illegal:

if (test)
{
   int i;
   ...
}

Compiling a java program into an executable

You can convert .jar file to .exe on these ways:
alt text
(source: viralpatel.net)

1- JSmooth .exe wrapper:
 JSmooth is a Java Executable Wrapper. It creates native Windows launchers (standard .exe) for your java applications. It makes java deployment much smoother and user-friendly, as it is able to find any installed Java VM by itself. When no VM is available, the wrapper can automatically download and install a suitable JVM, or simply display a message or redirect the user to a web site.

JSmooth provides a variety of wrappers for your java application, each of them having their own behaviour: Choose your flavour!

Download: http://jsmooth.sourceforge.net/

2- JarToExe 1.8
Jar2Exe is a tool to convert jar files into exe files. Following are the main features as describe in their website:

  • Can generate “Console”, “Windows GUI”, “Windows Service” three types of exe files.
  • Generated exe files can add program icons and version information.
  • Generated exe files can encrypt and protect java programs, no temporary files will be generated when program runs.
  • Generated exe files provide system tray icon support.
  • Generated exe files provide record system event log support.
  • Generated windows service exe files are able to install/uninstall itself, and support service pause/continue.
  • New release of x64 version, can create 64 bits executives. (May 18, 2008)
  • Both wizard mode and command line mode supported. (May 18, 2008)

Download: http://www.brothersoft.com/jartoexe-75019.html

3- Executor
 Package your Java application as a jar, and Executor will turn the jar into a Windows exe file, indistinguishable from a native application. Simply double-clicking the exe file will invoke the Java Runtime Environment and launch your application.

Download: http://mpowers.net/executor/

EDIT: The above link is broken, but here is the page (with working download) from the Internet Archive. http://web.archive.org/web/20090316092154/http://mpowers.net/executor/

4- Advanced Installer
Advanced Installer lets you create Windows MSI installs in minutes. This also has Windows Vista support and also helps to create MSI packages in other languages.
Download: http://www.advancedinstaller.com/ Let me know other tools that you have used to convert JAR to EXE.

Boolean operators ( &&, -a, ||, -o ) in Bash

Rule of thumb: Use -a and -o inside square brackets, && and || outside.

It's important to understand the difference between shell syntax and the syntax of the [ command.

  • && and || are shell operators. They are used to combine the results of two commands. Because they are shell syntax, they have special syntactical significance and cannot be used as arguments to commands.

  • [ is not special syntax. It's actually a command with the name [, also known as test. Since [ is just a regular command, it uses -a and -o for its and and or operators. It can't use && and || because those are shell syntax that commands don't get to see.

But wait! Bash has a fancier test syntax in the form of [[ ]]. If you use double square brackets, you get access to things like regexes and wildcards. You can also use shell operators like &&, ||, <, and > freely inside the brackets because, unlike [, the double bracketed form is special shell syntax. Bash parses [[ itself so you can write things like [[ $foo == 5 && $bar == 6 ]].

You can use <br/><br/> or &nbsp;&nbsp; or \ \.

Scanner vs. BufferedReader

I prefer Scanner because it doesn't throw checked exceptions and therefore it's usage results in a more streamlined code.

How to enable native resolution for apps on iPhone 6 and 6 Plus?

You can add a launch screen file that appears to work for multiple screen sizes. I just added the MainStoryboard as a launch screen file and that stopped the app from scaling. I think I will need to add a permanent launch screen later, but that got the native resolution up and working quickly. In Xcode, go to your target, general and add the launch screen file there.

Unable to use Intellij with a generated sources folder

I wanted to update at the comment earlier made by DaShaun, but as it is my first time commenting, application didn't allow me.

Nonetheless, I am using eclipse and after I added the below mention code snippet to my pom.xml as suggested by Dashun and I ran the mvn clean package to generate the avro source files, but I was still getting compilation error in the workspace.

I right clicked on project_name -> maven -> update project and updated the project, which added the target/generated-sources as a source folder to my eclipse project.

ASP.NET / C#: DropDownList SelectedIndexChanged in server control not firing

You need to set AutoPostBack to true for the Country DropDownList.

protected override void OnLoad(EventArgs e)
{
    // base stuff

    ddlCountries.AutoPostBack = true;

    // other stuff
}

Edit

I missed that you had done this. In that case you need to check that ViewState is enabled.

How can I get the executing assembly version?

Two options... regardless of application type you can always invoke:

Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetName().Version

If a Windows Forms application, you can always access via application if looking specifically for product version.

Application.ProductVersion

Using GetExecutingAssembly for an assembly reference is not always an option. As such, I personally find it useful to create a static helper class in projects where I may need to reference the underlying assembly or assembly version:

// A sample assembly reference class that would exist in the `Core` project.
public static class CoreAssembly
{
    public static readonly Assembly Reference = typeof(CoreAssembly).Assembly;
    public static readonly Version Version = Reference.GetName().Version;
}

Then I can cleanly reference CoreAssembly.Version in my code as required.

Page redirect after certain time PHP

The PHP refresh after 5 seconds didn't work for me when opening a Save As dialogue to save a file: (header('Content-type: text/plain'); header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=$filename>");)

After the Save As link was clicked, and file was saved, the timed refresh stopped on the calling page.

However, thank you very much, ibu's javascript solution just kept on ticking and refreshing my webpage, which is what I needed for my specific application. So thank you ibu for posting javascript solution to php problem here.

You can use javascript to redirect after some time

setTimeout(function () {    
    window.location.href = 'http://www.google.com';

I also wanted to clarify that if you have complex url parameters to build, you will need to build them manually. ie if your query is example.com/?latlng=-37,147, instead of providing the lat and lng values individually, you will need to build the latlng string externally, then provide it as a parameter, ie:

public interface LocationService {    
    @GET("/example/")
    void getLocation(@Query(value="latlng", encoded=true) String latlng);
}

Note the encoded=true is necessary, otherwise retrofit will encode the comma in the string parameter. Usage:

String latlng = location.getLatitude() + "," + location.getLongitude();
service.getLocation(latlng);

Function to Calculate Median in SQL Server

Although Justin grant's solution appears solid I found that when you have a number of duplicate values within a given partition key the row numbers for the ASC duplicate values end up out of sequence so they do not properly align.

Here is a fragment from my result: 

KEY VALUE ROWA ROWD  

13  2     22   182
13  1     6    183
13  1     7    184
13  1     8    185
13  1     9    186
13  1     10   187
13  1     11   188
13  1     12   189
13  0     1    190
13  0     2    191
13  0     3    192
13  0     4    193
13  0     5    194

I used Justin's code as the basis for this solution. Although not as efficient given the use of multiple derived tables it does resolve the row ordering problem I encountered. Any improvements would be welcome as I am not that experienced in T-SQL.

SELECT PKEY, cast(AVG(VALUE)as decimal(5,2)) as MEDIANVALUE
FROM
(
  SELECT PKEY,VALUE,ROWA,ROWD,
  'FLAG' = (CASE WHEN ROWA IN (ROWD,ROWD-1,ROWD+1) THEN 1 ELSE 0 END)
  FROM
  (
    SELECT
    PKEY,
    cast(VALUE as decimal(5,2)) as VALUE,
    ROWA,
    ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY PKEY ORDER BY ROWA DESC) as ROWD 

    FROM
    (
      SELECT
      PKEY, 
      VALUE,
      ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY PKEY ORDER BY VALUE ASC,PKEY ASC ) as ROWA 
      FROM [MTEST]
    )T1
  )T2
)T3
WHERE FLAG = '1'
GROUP BY PKEY
ORDER BY PKEY

Trigger event when user scroll to specific element - with jQuery

You can calculate the offset of the element and then compare that with the scroll value like:

$(window).scroll(function() {
   var hT = $('#scroll-to').offset().top,
       hH = $('#scroll-to').outerHeight(),
       wH = $(window).height(),
       wS = $(this).scrollTop();
   if (wS > (hT+hH-wH)){
       console.log('H1 on the view!');
   }
});

Check this Demo Fiddle

Updated Demo Fiddle no alert -- instead FadeIn() the element

Updated code to check if the element is inside the viewport or not. Thus this works whether you are scrolling up or down adding some rules to the if statement:

   if (wS > (hT+hH-wH) && (hT > wS) && (wS+wH > hT+hH)){
       //Do something
   }

How can I create a link to a local file on a locally-run web page?

If you are running IIS on your PC you can add the directory that you are trying to reach as a Virtual Directory. To do this you right-click on your Site in ISS and press "Add Virtual Directory". Name the virtual folder. Point the virtual folder to your folder location on your local PC. You also have to supply credentials that has privileges to access the specific folder eg. HOSTNAME\username and password. After that you can access the file in the virtual folder as any other file on your site.

http://sitename.com/virtual_folder_name/filename.fileextension

By the way, this also works with Chrome that otherwise does not accept the file-protocol file://

Hope this helps someone :)

TortoiseSVN icons not showing up under Windows 7

A combination of solutions worked for me. I tried to kill and restart explorer.exe as suggested by @LeighRiffel. Did not work. I uninstalled dropbox because I rarely use it. Then, I tried the explorer thing again and it worked. Maybe you can reinstall dropbox after this and see if things are okay ? I don't care though.

Here are the steps: Run taskmgr.exe or task manager > processes tab > select explorer.exe > kill. Then click file option > new task > enter explorer.exe > ok.

<meta charset="utf-8"> vs <meta http-equiv="Content-Type">

While not contesting the other answers, I think the following is worthy of mentioning.

  1. The “long” (http-equiv) notation and the “short” one are equal, whichever comes first wins;
  2. Web server headers will override all the <meta> tags;
  3. BOM (Byte order mark) will override everything, and in many cases it will affect html 4 (and probably other stuff, too);
  4. If you don't declare any encoding, you will probably get your text in “fallback text encoding” that is defined your browser. Neither in Firefox nor in Chrome it's utf-8;
  5. In absence of other clues the browser will attempt to read your document as if it was in ASCII to get the encoding, so you can't use any weird encodings (utf-16 with BOM should do, though);
  6. While the specs say that the encoding declaration must be within the first 512 bytes of the document, most browsers will try reading more than that.

You can test by running echo 'HTTP/1.1 200 OK\r\nContent-type: text/html; charset=windows-1251\r\n\r\n\xef\xbb\xbf<!DOCTYPE html><html><head><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"><meta charset="windows-1251"><title>??????</title></head><body>??????</body></html>' | nc -lp 4500 and pointing your browser at localhost:4500. (Of course you will want to change or remove parts. The BOM part is \xef\xbb\xbf. Be wary of the encoding of your shell.)

Please mind that it's very important that you explicitly declare the encoding. Letting browsers guess can lead to security issues.

How to connect to SQL Server from another computer?

If you want to connect to SQL server remotly you need to use a software - like Sql Server Management studio.

The computers doesn't need to be on the same network - but they must be able to connect each other using a communication protocol like tcp/ip, and the server must be set up to support incoming connection of the type you choose.

if you want to connect to another computer (to browse files ?) you use other tools, and not sql server (you can map a drive and access it through there ect...)

To Enable SQL connection using tcp/ip read this article:

For Sql Express: express For Sql 2008: 2008

Make sure you enable access through the machine firewall as well.

You might need to install either SSMS or Toad on the machine your using to connect to the server. both you can download from their's company web site.

What is the common header format of Python files?

The answers above are really complete, but if you want a quick and dirty header to copy'n paste, use this:

#!/usr/bin/env python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

"""Module documentation goes here
   and here
   and ...
"""

Why this is a good one:

  • The first line is for *nix users. It will choose the Python interpreter in the user path, so will automatically choose the user preferred interpreter.
  • The second one is the file encoding. Nowadays every file must have a encoding associated. UTF-8 will work everywhere. Just legacy projects would use other encoding.
  • And a very simple documentation. It can fill multiple lines.

See also: https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0263/

If you just write a class in each file, you don't even need the documentation (it would go inside the class doc).

Excluding Maven dependencies

You can utilize the dependency management mechanism.

If you create entries in the <dependencyManagement> section of your pom for spring-security-web and spring-web with the desired 3.1.0 version set the managed version of the artifact will override those specified in the transitive dependency tree.

I'm not sure if that really saves you any code, but it is a cleaner solution IMO.

        if(e.getStateChange() == ItemEvent.SELECTED) {//checkbox has been selected

        } else {//checkbox has been deselected
            //do something...
        };
    }
});

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

GCC adds C++ multiline raw string literals as a C extension

C++11 has raw string literals as mentioned at: https://stackoverflow.com/a/44337236/895245

However, GCC also adds them as a C extension, you just have to use -std=gnu99 instead of -std=c99. E.g.:

main.c

#include <assert.h>
#include <string.h>

int main(void) {
    assert(strcmp(R"(
a
b
)", "\na\nb\n") == 0);
}

Compile and run:

gcc -o main -pedantic -std=gnu99 -Wall -Wextra main.c
./main

This can be used for example to insert multiline inline assembly into C code: How to write multiline inline assembly code in GCC C++?

Now you just have to lay back, and wait for it to be standardized on C20XY.

How do you create a static class in C++?

Consider Matt Price's solution.

  1. In C++, a "static class" has no meaning. The nearest thing is a class with only static methods and members.
  2. Using static methods will only limit you.

What you want is, expressed in C++ semantics, to put your function (for it is a function) in a namespace.

Edit 2011-11-11

There is no "static class" in C++. The nearest concept would be a class with only static methods. For example:

// header
class MyClass
{
   public :
      static void myMethod() ;
} ;

// source
void MyClass::myMethod()
{
   // etc.
}

But you must remember that "static classes" are hacks in the Java-like kind of languages (e.g. C#) that are unable to have non-member functions, so they have instead to move them inside classes as static methods.

In C++, what you really want is a non-member function that you'll declare in a namespace:

// header
namespace MyNamespace
{
   void myMethod() ;
}

// source
namespace MyNamespace
{
   void myMethod()
   {
      // etc.
   }
}

Why is that?

In C++, the namespace is more powerful than classes for the "Java static method" pattern, because:

  • static methods have access to the classes private symbols
  • private static methods are still visible (if inaccessible) to everyone, which breaches somewhat the encapsulation
  • static methods cannot be forward-declared
  • static methods cannot be overloaded by the class user without modifying the library header
  • there is nothing that can be done by a static method that can't be done better than a (possibly friend) non-member function in the same namespace
  • namespaces have their own semantics (they can be combined, they can be anonymous, etc.)
  • etc.

Conclusion: Do not copy/paste that Java/C#'s pattern in C++. In Java/C#, the pattern is mandatory. But in C++, it is bad style.

Edit 2010-06-10

There was an argument in favor to the static method because sometimes, one needs to use a static private member variable.

I disagree somewhat, as show below:

The "Static private member" solution

// HPP

class Foo
{
   public :
      void barA() ;
   private :
      void barB() ;
      static std::string myGlobal ;
} ;

First, myGlobal is called myGlobal because it is still a global private variable. A look at the CPP source will clarify that:

// CPP
std::string Foo::myGlobal ; // You MUST declare it in a CPP

void Foo::barA()
{
   // I can access Foo::myGlobal
}

void Foo::barB()
{
   // I can access Foo::myGlobal, too
}

void barC()
{
   // I CAN'T access Foo::myGlobal !!!
}

At first sight, the fact the free function barC can't access Foo::myGlobal seems a good thing from an encapsulation viewpoint... It's cool because someone looking at the HPP won't be able (unless resorting to sabotage) to access Foo::myGlobal.

But if you look at it closely, you'll find that it is a colossal mistake: Not only your private variable must still be declared in the HPP (and so, visible to all the world, despite being private), but you must declare in the same HPP all (as in ALL) functions that will be authorized to access it !!!

So using a private static member is like walking outside in the nude with the list of your lovers tattooed on your skin : No one is authorized to touch, but everyone is able to peek at. And the bonus: Everyone can have the names of those authorized to play with your privies.

private indeed... :-D

The "Anonymous namespaces" solution

Anonymous namespaces will have the advantage of making things private really private.

First, the HPP header

// HPP

namespace Foo
{
   void barA() ;
}

Just to be sure you remarked: There is no useless declaration of barB nor myGlobal. Which means that no one reading the header knows what's hidden behind barA.

Then, the CPP:

// CPP
namespace Foo
{
   namespace
   {
      std::string myGlobal ;

      void Foo::barB()
      {
         // I can access Foo::myGlobal
      }
   }

   void barA()
   {
      // I can access myGlobal, too
   }
}

void barC()
{
   // I STILL CAN'T access myGlobal !!!
}

As you can see, like the so-called "static class" declaration, fooA and fooB are still able to access myGlobal. But no one else can. And no one else outside this CPP knows fooB and myGlobal even exist!

Unlike the "static class" walking on the nude with her address book tattooed on her skin the "anonymous" namespace is fully clothed, which seems quite better encapsulated AFAIK.

Does it really matter?

Unless the users of your code are saboteurs (I'll let you, as an exercise, find how one can access to the private part of a public class using a dirty behaviour-undefined hack...), what's private is private, even if it is visible in the private section of a class declared in a header.

Still, if you need to add another "private function" with access to the private member, you still must declare it to all the world by modifying the header, which is a paradox as far as I am concerned: If I change the implementation of my code (the CPP part), then the interface (the HPP part) should NOT change. Quoting Leonidas : "This is ENCAPSULATION!"

Edit 2014-09-20

When are classes static methods are actually better than namespaces with non-member functions?

When you need to group together functions and feed that group to a template:

namespace alpha
{
   void foo() ;
   void bar() ;
}

struct Beta
{
   static void foo() ;
   static void bar() ;
};

template <typename T>
struct Gamma
{
   void foobar()
   {
      T::foo() ;
      T::bar() ;
   }
};

Gamma<alpha> ga ; // compilation error
Gamma<Beta> gb ;  // ok
gb.foobar() ;     // ok !!!

Because, if a class can be a template parameter, a namespaces cannot.

How to search a string in String array

At first shot, I could come up with something like this (but it's pseudo code and assuming you cannot use any .NET built-in libaries). Might require a bit of tweaking and re-thinking, but should be good enough for a head-start, maybe?

int findString(String var, String[] stringArray, int currentIndex, int stringMaxIndex)
    {
    if currentIndex > stringMaxIndex 
       return (-stringMaxIndex-1);
    else if var==arr[currentIndex] //or use any string comparison op or function
       return 0;
    else 
       return findString(var, stringArray, currentIndex++, stringMaxIndex) + 1 ;
    }



    //calling code
    int index = findString(var, arr, 0, getMaxIndex(arr));

    if index == -1 printOnScreen("Not found");
    else printOnScreen("Found on index: " + index);

Determining Referer in PHP

The REFERER is sent by the client's browser as part of the HTTP protocol, and is therefore unreliable indeed. It might not be there, it might be forged, you just can't trust it if it's for security reasons.

If you want to verify if a request is coming from your site, well you can't, but you can verify the user has been to your site and/or is authenticated. Cookies are sent in AJAX requests so you can rely on that.

C# using streams

Streams are good for dealing with large amounts of data. When it's impractical to load all the data into memory at the same time, you can open it as a stream and work with small chunks of it.

Are there such things as variables within an Excel formula?

Yes. But not directly.

Simpler way

  • You could post Vlookup() in one cell and use its address in where required. - This is perhaps the only direct way of using variables in Excel.

OR

  • You could define Vlookup(reference)-10 as a wrapper function from within VBE Macros. Press Alt+f12 and use that function

Split by comma and strip whitespace in Python

Split using a regular expression. Note I made the case more general with leading spaces. The list comprehension is to remove the null strings at the front and back.

>>> import re
>>> string = "  blah, lots  ,  of ,  spaces, here "
>>> pattern = re.compile("^\s+|\s*,\s*|\s+$")
>>> print([x for x in pattern.split(string) if x])
['blah', 'lots', 'of', 'spaces', 'here']

This works even if ^\s+ doesn't match:

>>> string = "foo,   bar  "
>>> print([x for x in pattern.split(string) if x])
['foo', 'bar']
>>>

Here's why you need ^\s+:

>>> pattern = re.compile("\s*,\s*|\s+$")
>>> print([x for x in pattern.split(string) if x])
['  blah', 'lots', 'of', 'spaces', 'here']

See the leading spaces in blah?

Clarification: above uses the Python 3 interpreter, but results are the same in Python 2.

How can I align all elements to the left in JPanel?

My favorite method to use would be the BorderLayout method. Here are the five examples with each position the component could go in. The example is for if the component were a button. We will add it to a JPanel, p. The button will be called b.

//To align it to the left
p.add(b, BorderLayout.WEST);

//To align it to the right
p.add(b, BorderLayout.EAST);

//To align it at the top
p.add(b, BorderLayout.NORTH);

//To align it to the bottom
p.add(b, BorderLayout.SOUTH);

//To align it to the center
p.add(b, BorderLayout.CENTER);

Don't forget to import it as well by typing:

import java.awt.BorderLayout;

There are also other methods in the BorderLayout class involving things like orientation, but you can do your own research on that if you curious about that. I hope this helped!

What is dtype('O'), in pandas?

It means:

'O'     (Python) objects

Source.

The first character specifies the kind of data and the remaining characters specify the number of bytes per item, except for Unicode, where it is interpreted as the number of characters. The item size must correspond to an existing type, or an error will be raised. The supported kinds are to an existing type, or an error will be raised. The supported kinds are:

'b'       boolean
'i'       (signed) integer
'u'       unsigned integer
'f'       floating-point
'c'       complex-floating point
'O'       (Python) objects
'S', 'a'  (byte-)string
'U'       Unicode
'V'       raw data (void)

Another answer helps if need check types.

How to define relative paths in Visual Studio Project?

By default, all paths you define will be relative. The question is: relative to what? There are several options:

  1. Specifying a file or a path with nothing before it. For example: "mylib.lib". In that case, the file will be searched at the Output Directory.
  2. If you add "..\", the path will be calculated from the actual path where the .sln file resides.

Please note that following a macro such as $(SolutionDir) there is no need to add a backward slash "\". Just use $(SolutionDir)mylibdir\mylib.lib. In case you just can't get it to work, open the project file externally from Notepad and check it.

How to map and remove nil values in Ruby

If you wanted a looser criterion for rejection, for example, to reject empty strings as well as nil, you could use:

[1, nil, 3, 0, ''].reject(&:blank?)
 => [1, 3, 0]

If you wanted to go further and reject zero values (or apply more complex logic to the process), you could pass a block to reject:

[1, nil, 3, 0, ''].reject do |value| value.blank? || value==0 end
 => [1, 3]

[1, nil, 3, 0, '', 1000].reject do |value| value.blank? || value==0 || value>10 end
 => [1, 3]

Strip HTML from strings in Python

You can use either a different HTML parser (like lxml, or Beautiful Soup) -- one that offers functions to extract just text. Or, you can run a regex on your line string that strips out the tags. See Python docs for more.

Assigning default values to shell variables with a single command in bash

Here is an example

#!/bin/bash

default='default_value'
value=${1:-$default}

echo "value: [$value]"

save this as script.sh and make it executable. run it without params

./script.sh
> value: [default_value]

run it with param

./script.sh my_value
> value: [my_value]

Converting JSON data to Java object

I looked at Google's Gson as a potential JSON plugin. Can anyone offer some form of guidance as to how I can generate Java from this JSON string?

Google Gson supports generics and nested beans. The [] in JSON represents an array and should map to a Java collection such as List or just a plain Java array. The {} in JSON represents an object and should map to a Java Map or just some JavaBean class.

You have a JSON object with several properties of which the groups property represents an array of nested objects of the very same type. This can be parsed with Gson the following way:

package com.stackoverflow.q1688099;

import java.util.List;
import com.google.gson.Gson;

public class Test {

    public static void main(String... args) throws Exception {
        String json = 
            "{"
                + "'title': 'Computing and Information systems',"
                + "'id' : 1,"
                + "'children' : 'true',"
                + "'groups' : [{"
                    + "'title' : 'Level one CIS',"
                    + "'id' : 2,"
                    + "'children' : 'true',"
                    + "'groups' : [{"
                        + "'title' : 'Intro To Computing and Internet',"
                        + "'id' : 3,"
                        + "'children': 'false',"
                        + "'groups':[]"
                    + "}]" 
                + "}]"
            + "}";

        // Now do the magic.
        Data data = new Gson().fromJson(json, Data.class);

        // Show it.
        System.out.println(data);
    }

}

class Data {
    private String title;
    private Long id;
    private Boolean children;
    private List<Data> groups;

    public String getTitle() { return title; }
    public Long getId() { return id; }
    public Boolean getChildren() { return children; }
    public List<Data> getGroups() { return groups; }

    public void setTitle(String title) { this.title = title; }
    public void setId(Long id) { this.id = id; }
    public void setChildren(Boolean children) { this.children = children; }
    public void setGroups(List<Data> groups) { this.groups = groups; }
    
    public String toString() {
        return String.format("title:%s,id:%d,children:%s,groups:%s", title, id, children, groups);
    }
}

Fairly simple, isn't it? Just have a suitable JavaBean and call Gson#fromJson().

In Excel, how do I extract last four letters of a ten letter string?

No need to use a macro. Supposing your first string is in A1.

=RIGHT(A1, 4)

Drag this down and you will get your four last characters.

Edit: To be sure, if you ever have sequences like 'ABC DEF' and want the last four LETTERS and not CHARACTERS you might want to use trimspaces()

=RIGHT(TRIMSPACES(A1), 4)

Edit: As per brettdj's suggestion, you may want to check that your string is actually 4-character long or more:

=IF(TRIMSPACES(A1)>=4, RIGHT(TRIMSPACES(A1), 4), TRIMSPACES(A1))

Could not open ServletContext resource [/WEB-INF/applicationContext.xml]

ContextLoaderListener has its own context which is shared by all servlets and filters. By default it will search /WEB-INF/applicationContext.xml

You can customize this by using

<context-param>
    <param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name>
    <param-value>/WEB-INF/somewhere-else/root-context.xml</param-value>
</context-param>

on web.xml, or remove this listener if you don't need one.

pandas: best way to select all columns whose names start with X

Another option for the selection of the desired entries is to use map:

df.loc[(df == 1).any(axis=1), df.columns.map(lambda x: x.startswith('foo'))]

which gives you all the columns for rows that contain a 1:

   foo.aa  foo.bars  foo.fighters  foo.fox foo.manchu
0     1.0         0             0        2         NA
1     2.1         0             1        4          0
2     NaN         0           NaN        1          0
5     6.8         1             0        5          0

The row selection is done by 

(df == 1).any(axis=1)

as in @ajcr's answer which gives you:

0     True
1     True
2     True
3    False
4    False
5     True
dtype: bool

meaning that row 3 and 4 do not contain a 1 and won't be selected.

The selection of the columns is done using Boolean indexing like this:

df.columns.map(lambda x: x.startswith('foo'))

In the example above this returns

array([False,  True,  True,  True,  True,  True, False], dtype=bool)

So, if a column does not start with foo, False is returned and the column is therefore not selected.

If you just want to return all rows that contain a 1 - as your desired output suggests - you can simply do

df.loc[(df == 1).any(axis=1)]

which returns

   bar.baz  foo.aa  foo.bars  foo.fighters  foo.fox foo.manchu nas.foo
0      5.0     1.0         0             0        2         NA      NA
1      5.0     2.1         0             1        4          0       0
2      6.0     NaN         0           NaN        1          0       1
5      6.8     6.8         1             0        5          0       0

How do I dynamically change the content in an iframe using jquery?

If you just want to change where the iframe points to and not the actual content inside the iframe, you would just need to change the src attribute.

 $("#myiframe").attr("src", "newwebpage.html");

Javascript "Uncaught TypeError: object is not a function" associativity question

Your code experiences a case where the Automatic Semicolon Insertion (ASI) process doesn't happen.

You should never rely on ASI. You should use semicolons to properly separate statements:

var postTypes = new Array('hello', 'there'); // <--- Place a semicolon here!!

(function() { alert('hello there') })();

Your code was actually trying to invoke the array object.

Making an iframe responsive

I present to you The Incredible Singing Cat solution =)

.wrapper {
    position: relative;
    padding-bottom: 56.25%; /* 16:9 */
    padding-top: 25px;
    height: 0;
}
.wrapper iframe {
    position: absolute;
    top: 0;
    left: 0;
    width: 100%;
    height: 100%;
}

jsFiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/omarjuvera/8zkunqxy/2/
As you move the window bar, you'll see iframe to responsively resize

Alternatively, you may also use the intrinsic ratio technique - This is just an alternate option of the same solution above (tomato, tomato)

.iframe-container {
  overflow: hidden;
  padding-top: 56.25%;
  position: relative;
} 

.iframe-container iframe {
  position: absolute;
  top: 0;
  left: 0;
  border: 0;
  width: 100%;
  height: 100%;
}

Remove all constraints affecting a UIView

You could use something like this:

[viewA.superview.constraints enumerateObjectsUsingBlock:^(id obj, NSUInteger idx, BOOL *stop) {
    NSLayoutConstraint *constraint = (NSLayoutConstraint *)obj;
    if (constraint.firstItem == viewA || constraint.secondItem == viewA) {
        [viewA.superview removeConstraint:constraint];
    }
}];

[viewA removeConstraints:viewA.constraints];

Basically, this is enumerates over all the constraints on the superview of viewA and removes all of the constraints that are related to viewA.

Then, the second part removes the constraints from viewA using the array of viewA's constraints.

Python Create unix timestamp five minutes in the future

Now in Python >= 3.3 you can just call the timestamp() method to get the timestamp as a float.

import datetime
current_time = datetime.datetime.now(datetime.timezone.utc)
unix_timestamp = current_time.timestamp() # works if Python >= 3.3

unix_timestamp_plus_5_min = unix_timestamp + (5 * 60)  # 5 min * 60 seconds

Add "Are you sure?" to my excel button, how can I?

On your existing button code, simply insert this line before the procedure:

How to open generated pdf using jspdf in new window

Javascript code

// IE doesn't allow using a blob object directly as link href
// instead it is necessary to use msSaveOrOpenBlob
if (window.navigator && window.navigator.msSaveOrOpenBlob) {
  window.navigator.msSaveOrOpenBlob(doc.output("blob"), "Name.pdf");
} else {

  // For other browsers:
  // Create a link pointing to the ObjectURL containing the blob.
  doc.autoPrint();
  window.open(
    URL.createObjectURL(doc.output("blob")),
    "_blank",
    "height=650,width=500,scrollbars=yes,location=yes"
  );

  // For Firefox it is necessary to delay revoking the ObjectURL
  setTimeout(() => {    
    window.URL.revokeObjectURL(doc.output("bloburl"));
  }, 100);
}

How to filter an array from all elements of another array

You can setup the filter function to iterate over the "filter array".

var arr = [1, 2, 3 ,4 ,5, 6, 7];
var filter = [4, 5, 6];

var filtered = arr.filter(
  function(val) {
    for (var i = 0; i < filter.length; i++) {
      if (val == filter[i]) {
        return false;
      }
    }
    return true;
  }
);

Recursively list files in Java

I think this should do the work:

File dir = new File(dirname);
String[] files = dir.list();

This way you have files and dirs. Now use recursion and do the same for dirs (File class has isDirectory() method).

bash script read all the files in directory

To write it with a while loop you can do:

ls -f /var | while read -r file; do cmd $file; done

The primary disadvantage of this is that cmd is run in a subshell, which causes some difficulty if you are trying to set variables. The main advantages are that the shell does not need to load all of the filenames into memory, and there is no globbing. When you have a lot of files in the directory, those advantages are important (that's why I use -f on ls; in a large directory ls itself can take several tens of seconds to run and -f speeds that up appreciably. In such cases 'for file in /var/*' will likely fail with a glob error.)

What exactly does the .join() method do?

On providing this as input ,

li = ['server=mpilgrim', 'uid=sa', 'database=master', 'pwd=secret']

Python returns this as output :

'server=mpilgrim;uid=sa;database=master;pwd=secret'

Android - How to regenerate R class?

Android EditText view Floating Hint in Material Design

@andruboy's suggestion of https://gist.github.com/chrisbanes/11247418 is probably your best bet.

https://github.com/thebnich/FloatingHintEditText kind of works with appcompat-v7 v21.0.0, but since v21.0.0 does not support accent colors with subclasses of EditText, the underline of the FloatingHintEditText will be the default solid black or white. Also the padding is not optimized for the Material style EditText, so you may need to adjust it.

  2. This depends on mencoder. If it ouputs this status on the command line then yes :)

scatter plot in matplotlib

Maybe something like this:

import matplotlib.pyplot
import pylab

x = [1,2,3,4]
y = [3,4,8,6]

matplotlib.pyplot.scatter(x,y)

matplotlib.pyplot.show()

EDIT:

Let me see if I understand you correctly now:

You have:

       test1 | test2 | test3
test3 |   1   |   0  |  1

test4 |   0   |   1  |  0

test5 |   1   |   1  |  0

Now you want to represent the above values in in a scatter plot, such that value of 1 is represented by a dot.

Let's say you results are stored in a 2-D list:

results = [[1, 0, 1], [0, 1, 0], [1, 1, 0]]

We want to transform them into two variables so we are able to plot them.

And I believe this code will give you what you are looking for:

import matplotlib
import pylab


results = [[1, 0, 1], [0, 1, 0], [1, 1, 0]]

x = []
y = []

for ind_1, sublist in enumerate(results):
    for ind_2, ele in enumerate(sublist):
        if ele == 1:
            x.append(ind_1)
            y.append(ind_2)       


matplotlib.pyplot.scatter(x,y)

matplotlib.pyplot.show()

Notice that I do need to import pylab, and you would have play around with the axis labels. Also this feels like a work around, and there might be (probably is) a direct method to do this.

Primitive type 'short' - casting in Java

Java always uses at least 32 bit values for calculations. This is due to the 32-bit architecture which was common 1995 when java was introduced. The register size in the CPU was 32 bit and the arithmetic logic unit accepted 2 numbers of the length of a cpu register. So the cpus were optimized for such values.

This is the reason why all datatypes which support arithmetic opperations and have less than 32-bits are converted to int (32 bit) as soon as you use them for calculations.

So to sum up it mainly was due to performance issues and is kept nowadays for compatibility.

Best practice to call ConfigureAwait for all server-side code

I have some general thoughts about the implementation of Task:

  1. Task is disposable yet we are not supposed to use using.
  2. ConfigureAwait was introduced in 4.5. Task was introduced in 4.0.
  3. .NET Threads always used to flow the context (see C# via CLR book) but in the default implementation of Task.ContinueWith they do not b/c it was realised context switch is expensive and it is turned off by default.
  4. The problem is a library developer should not care whether its clients need context flow or not hence it should not decide whether flow the context or not.
  5. [Added later] The fact that there is no authoritative answer and proper reference and we keep fighting on this means someone has not done their job right.

I have got a few posts on the subject but my take - in addition to Tugberk's nice answer - is that you should turn all APIs asynchronous and ideally flow the context . Since you are doing async, you can simply use continuations instead of waiting so no deadlock will be cause since no wait is done in the library and you keep the flowing so the context is preserved (such as HttpContext).

Problem is when a library exposes a synchronous API but uses another asynchronous API - hence you need to use Wait()/Result in your code.

How to go back last page

in angular 4 use preserveQueryParams, ex:

url: /list?page=1

<a [routerLink]="['edit',id]" [preserveQueryParams]="true"></a>

Process all arguments except the first one (in a bash script)

Working in bash 4 or higher version:

#!/bin/bash
echo "$0";         #"bash"
bash --version;    #"GNU bash, version 5.0.3(1)-release (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu)"

In function:

echo $@;              #"p1" "p2" "p3" "p4" "p5"
echo ${@: 0};  #"bash" "p1" "p2" "p3" "p4" "p5"
echo ${@: 1};         #"p1" "p2" "p3" "p4" "p5"
echo ${@: 2};              #"p2" "p3" "p4" "p5"
echo ${@: 2:1};            #"p2"
echo ${@: 2:2};            #"p2" "p3"
echo ${@: -2};                       #"p4" "p5"
echo ${@: -2:1};                     #"p4"

Notice the space between ':' and '-', otherwise it means different:

${var:-word} If var is null or unset,
word is substituted for var. The value of var does not change.

${var:+word} If var is set,
word is substituted for var. The value of var does not change.

Which is described in:Unix / Linux - Shell Substitution

How to convert a full date to a short date in javascript?

Built-in toLocaleDateString() does the job, but it will remove the leading 0s for the day and month, so we will get something like "1/9/1970", which is not perfect in my opinion. To get a proper format MM/DD/YYYY we can use something like:

new Date(dateString).toLocaleDateString('en-US', {
  day: '2-digit',
  month: '2-digit',
  year: 'numeric',
})

How to config Tomcat to serve images from an external folder outside webapps?

Instead of configuring Tomcat to redirect requests, use Apache as a frontend with the Apache Tomcat connector so that Apache is only serving static content, while asking tomcat for dynamic content.

Using the JKmount directive (or others) you could specify exactly which requests are sent to Tomcat.

Requests for static content, such as images, would be served directly by Apache, using a standard virtual host configuration, while other requests, defined in the JKMount directive will be sent to Tomcat workers.

I think this implementation would give you the most flexibility and control on the overall application.

How to check if DST (Daylight Saving Time) is in effect, and if so, the offset?

Based on Matt Johanson's comment on the solution provided by Sheldon Griffin I created the following code:

    Date.prototype.stdTimezoneOffset = function() {
        var fy=this.getFullYear();
        if (!Date.prototype.stdTimezoneOffset.cache.hasOwnProperty(fy)) {

            var maxOffset = new Date(fy, 0, 1).getTimezoneOffset();
            var monthsTestOrder=[6,7,5,8,4,9,3,10,2,11,1];

            for(var mi=0;mi<12;mi++) {
                var offset=new Date(fy, monthsTestOrder[mi], 1).getTimezoneOffset();
                if (offset!=maxOffset) { 
                    maxOffset=Math.max(maxOffset,offset);
                    break;
                }
            }
            Date.prototype.stdTimezoneOffset.cache[fy]=maxOffset;
        }
        return Date.prototype.stdTimezoneOffset.cache[fy];
    };

    Date.prototype.stdTimezoneOffset.cache={};

    Date.prototype.isDST = function() {
        return this.getTimezoneOffset() < this.stdTimezoneOffset(); 
    };

It tries to get the best of all worlds taking into account all the comments and previously suggested answers and specifically it:

1) Caches the result for per year stdTimezoneOffset so that you don't need to recalculate it when testing multiple dates in the same year.

2) It does not assume that DST (if it exists at all) is necessarily in July, and will work even if it will at some point and some place be any month. However Performance-wise it will work faster if indeed July (or near by months) are indeed DST.

3) Worse case it will compare the getTimezoneOffset of the first of each month. [and do that Once per tested year].

The assumption it does still makes is that the if there is DST period is larger then a single month.

If someone wants to remove that assumption he can change loop into something more like whats in the solutin provided by Aaron Cole - but I would still jump half a year ahead and break out of the loop when two different offsets are found]

find . -type f -exec chmod 644 {} ;

I need this so often that I created a function in my ~/.bashrc file:

chmodf() {
        find $2 -type f -exec chmod $1 {} \;
}
chmodd() {
        find $2 -type d -exec chmod $1 {} \;
}

Now I can use these shortcuts:

chmodd 0775 .
chmodf 0664 .

Transpose list of lists

Methods 1 and 2 work in Python 2 or 3, and they work on ragged, rectangular 2D lists. That means the inner lists do not need to have the same lengths as each other (ragged) or as the outer lists (rectangular). The other methods, well, it's complicated.

the setup

import itertools
import six

list_list = [[1,2,3], [4,5,6, 6.1, 6.2, 6.3], [7,8,9]]

method 1 — map(), zip_longest()

>>> list(map(list, six.moves.zip_longest(*list_list, fillvalue='-')))
[[1, 4, 7], [2, 5, 8], [3, 6, 9], ['-', 6.1, '-'], ['-', 6.2, '-'], ['-', 6.3, '-']]

six.moves.zip_longest() becomes

The default fillvalue is None. Thanks to @jena's answer, where map() is changing the inner tuples to lists. Here it is turning iterators into lists. Thanks to @Oregano's and @badp's comments.

In Python 3, pass the result through list() to get the same 2D list as method 2.

method 2 — list comprehension, zip_longest()

>>> [list(row) for row in six.moves.zip_longest(*list_list, fillvalue='-')]
[[1, 4, 7], [2, 5, 8], [3, 6, 9], ['-', 6.1, '-'], ['-', 6.2, '-'], ['-', 6.3, '-']]

The @inspectorG4dget alternative.

method 3 — map() of map() — broken in Python 3.6

>>> map(list, map(None, *list_list))
[[1, 4, 7], [2, 5, 8], [3, 6, 9], [None, 6.1, None], [None, 6.2, None], [None, 6.3, None]]

This extraordinarily compact @SiggyF second alternative works with ragged 2D lists, unlike his first code which uses numpy to transpose and pass through ragged lists. But None has to be the fill value. (No, the None passed to the inner map() is not the fill value. It means there is no function to process each column. The columns are just passed through to the outer map() which converts them from tuples to lists.)

Somewhere in Python 3, map() stopped putting up with all this abuse: the first parameter cannot be None, and ragged iterators are just truncated to the shortest. The other methods still work because this only applies to the inner map().

method 4 — map() of map() revisited

>>> list(map(list, map(lambda *args: args, *list_list)))
[[1, 4, 7], [2, 5, 8], [3, 6, 9]]   // Python 2.7
[[1, 4, 7], [2, 5, 8], [3, 6, 9], [None, 6.1, None], [None, 6.2, None], [None, 6.3, None]] // 3.6+

Alas the ragged rows do NOT become ragged columns in Python 3, they are just truncated. Boo hoo progress.

ASP.NET MVC - Set custom IIdentity or IPrincipal

All right, so i'm a serious cryptkeeper here by dragging up this very old question, but there is a much simpler approach to this, which was touched on by @Baserz above. And that is to use a combination of C# Extension methods and caching (Do NOT use session).

In fact, Microsoft has already provided a number of such extensions in the Microsoft.AspNet.Identity.IdentityExtensions namespace. For instance, GetUserId() is an extension method that returns the user Id. There is also GetUserName() and FindFirstValue(), which returns claims based on the IPrincipal.

So you need only include the namespace, and then call User.Identity.GetUserName() to get the users name as configured by ASP.NET Identity.

I'm not certain if this is cached, since the older ASP.NET Identity is not open sourced, and I haven't bothered to reverse engineer it. However, if it's not then you can write your own extension method, that will cache this result for a specific amount of time.

Getting a list item by index

Visual Basic, C#, and C++ all have syntax for accessing the Item property without using its name. Instead, the variable containing the List is used as if it were an array.

List[index]

See for instance: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/0ebtbkkc(v=vs.110).aspx

Webview load html from assets directory

You are getting the WebView before setting the Content view so the wv is probably null.

public class ViewWeb extends Activity {  
        @Override  
        public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {  
            super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
            setContentView(R.layout.webview);  
            WebView wv;  
            wv = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webView1);  
            wv.loadUrl("file:///android_asset/aboutcertified.html");   // now it will not fail here
        }  
    }

What is the connection string for localdb for version 11

I have connection string Server=(localdb)\v11.0;Integrated Security=true;Database=DB1;

and even a .NET 3.5 program connects and execute SQL successfully.

But many people say .NET 4.0.2 or 4.5 is required.

Send Message in C#

Building on Mark Byers's answer.

The 3rd project could be a WCF project, hosted as a Windows Service. If all programs listened to that service, one application could call the service. The service passes the message on to all listening clients and they can perform an action if suitable.

Pandas/Python: Set value of one column based on value in another column

You can use np.where() to set values based on a specified condition:

#df
   c1  c2  c3
0   4   2   1
1   8   7   9
2   1   5   8
3   3   3   5
4   3   6   8

Now change values (or set) in column ['c2'] based on your condition.

df['c2'] = np.where(df.c1 == 8,'X', df.c3)

   c1  c3  c4
0   4   1   1
1   8   9   X
2   1   8   8
3   3   5   5
4   3   8   8

How to bundle an Angular app for production

ng serve works for serving our application for development purposes. What about for production? If we look into our package.json file, we can see that there are scripts we can use:

"scripts": {
  "ng": "ng",
  "start": "ng serve",
  "build": "ng build --prod",
  "test": "ng test",
  "lint": "ng lint",
  "e2e": "ng e2e"
},

The build script uses the Angular CLI's ng build with the --prod flag. Let's try that now. We can do it one of two ways:

# using the npm scripts

npm run build

# using the cli directly

ng build --prod

This time we are given four files instead of the five. The --prod flag tells Angular to make our application much smaller in size.

Numpy isnan() fails on an array of floats (from pandas dataframe apply)

np.isnan can be applied to NumPy arrays of native dtype (such as np.float64):

In [99]: np.isnan(np.array([np.nan, 0], dtype=np.float64))
Out[99]: array([ True, False], dtype=bool)

but raises TypeError when applied to object arrays:

In [96]: np.isnan(np.array([np.nan, 0], dtype=object))
TypeError: ufunc 'isnan' not supported for the input types, and the inputs could not be safely coerced to any supported types according to the casting rule ''safe''

Since you have Pandas, you could use pd.isnull instead -- it can accept NumPy arrays of object or native dtypes:

In [97]: pd.isnull(np.array([np.nan, 0], dtype=float))
Out[97]: array([ True, False], dtype=bool)

In [98]: pd.isnull(np.array([np.nan, 0], dtype=object))
Out[98]: array([ True, False], dtype=bool)

Note that None is also considered a null value in object arrays.

Why Doesn't C# Allow Static Methods to Implement an Interface?

Interfaces specify behavior of an object.

Static methods do not specify a behavior of an object, but behavior that affects an object in some way.

Can an abstract class have a constructor?

As described by javafuns here, this is an example:

public abstract class TestEngine
{
   private String engineId;
   private String engineName;

   public TestEngine(String engineId , String engineName)
   {
     this.engineId = engineId;
     this.engineName = engineName;
   }
   //public gettors and settors
   public abstract void scheduleTest();
}


public class JavaTestEngine extends TestEngine
{

   private String typeName;

   public JavaTestEngine(String engineId , String engineName , String typeName)
   {
      super(engineId , engineName);
      this.typeName = typeName;
   }

   public void scheduleTest()
   {
     //do Stuff
   }
}

Sequence contains more than one element

The problem is that you are using SingleOrDefault. This method will only succeed when the collections contains exactly 0 or 1 element. I believe you are looking for FirstOrDefault which will succeed no matter how many elements are in the collection.

How remove border around image in css?

Thank for the answers,

The border is removed for Internet Explorer, but this there for Firefox.

So, I added this class to the img:

.clearBorder{border:none;}

And it worked!

The page cannot be displayed because an internal server error has occurred on server

I think the best first approach is to make sure to turn on detailed error messages via your web.config file, like this:

<configuration>
    <system.webServer>
        <httpErrors errorMode="Detailed"></httpErrors>
    </system.webServer>
</configuration>

After doing this, you should get a more detailed error message from the server.

In my particular case, the more detailed error pointed out that my <defaultDocument> section of the web.config file was not allowed at the folder level where I'd placed my web.config. It said

This configuration section cannot be used at this path. This happens when the section is locked at a parent level. Locking is either by default (overrideModeDefault="Deny"), or set explicitly by a location tag with overrideMode="Deny" or the legacy allowOverride="false". "

Warning: A non-numeric value encountered

Try this.

$sub_total = 0;

and within your loop now you can use this

$sub_total += ($item['quantity'] * $product['price']);

It should solve your problem.

Nginx: Permission denied for nginx on Ubuntu

Make sure you are running the test as a superuser.

sudo nginx -t

Or the test wont have all the permissions needed to complete the test properly.

The import javax.servlet can't be resolved

Had the same problem in Eclipse. For some reason I didn't have the servlet.jar file in my build path. What I wound up doing was copying a "lib" folder from another project of mine to the project I was working on, then manually going into that folder and adding the servlet.jar file to the build path (option shows up when you right-click on the file in the project explorer).

Retrieve all values from HashMap keys in an ArrayList Java

List constructor accepts any data structure that implements Collection interface to be used to build a list.

To get all the keys from a hash map to a list:

Map<String, Integer> map = new HashMap<String, Integer>();
List<String> keys = new ArrayList<>(map.keySet());

To get all the values from a hash map to a list:

Map<String, Integer> map = new HashMap<String, Integer>();
List<Integer> values = new ArrayList<>(map.values());

Error: " 'dict' object has no attribute 'iteritems' "

As answered by RafaelC, Python 3 renamed dict.iteritems -> dict.items. Try a different package version. This will list available packages:

python -m pip install yourOwnPackageHere==

Then rerun with the version you will try after == to install/switch version

See changes to a specific file using git

Use a command like:

git diff file_2.rb

See the git diff documentation for full information on the kinds of things you can get differences for.

Normally, git diff by itself shows all the changes in the whole repository (not just the current directory).

Optimal number of threads per core

I know this question is rather old, but things have evolved since 2009.

There are two things to take into account now: the number of cores, and the number of threads that can run within each core.

With Intel processors, the number of threads is defined by the Hyperthreading which is just 2 (when available). But Hyperthreading cuts your execution time by two, even when not using 2 threads! (i.e. 1 pipeline shared between two processes -- this is good when you have more processes, not so good otherwise. More cores are definitively better!)

On other processors you may have 2, 4, or even 8 threads. So if you have 8 cores each of which support 8 threads, you could have 64 processes running in parallel without context switching.

"No context switching" is obviously not true if you run with a standard operating system which will do context switching for all sorts of other things out of your control. But that's the main idea. Some OSes let you allocate processors so only your application has access/usage of said processor!

From my own experience, if you have a lot of I/O, multiple threads is good. If you have very heavy memory intensive work (read source 1, read source 2, fast computation, write) then having more threads doesn't help. Again, this depends on how much data you read/write simultaneously (i.e. if you use SSE 4.2 and read 256 bits values, that stops all threads in their step... in other words, 1 thread is probably a lot easier to implement and probably nearly as speedy if not actually faster. This will depend on your process & memory architecture, some advanced servers manage separate memory ranges for separate cores so separate threads will be faster assuming your data is properly filed... which is why, on some architectures, 4 processes will run faster than 1 process with 4 threads.)

What's the PowerShell syntax for multiple values in a switch statement?

After searching a solution for the same problem like you, I've found this small topic here. In advance I got a much smoother solution for this switch, case statement

switch($someString) #switch is caseINsensitive, so you don't need to lower
{
    { 'y' -or 'yes' } { "You entered Yes." }
    default { "You entered No." }
}

Viewing all defined variables

A few things you could use:

  • dir() will give you the list of in scope variables:
  • globals() will give you a dictionary of global variables
  • locals() will give you a dictionary of local variables

random number generator between 0 - 1000 in c#

Use this:

static int RandomNumber(int min, int max)
{
    Random random = new Random(); return random.Next(min, max);

}

This is example for you to modify and use in your application.

how to fix stream_socket_enable_crypto(): SSL operation failed with code 1

To resolve this problem you first need to check the SSL certificates of the host your are connecting to. For example using ssllabs or other ssl tools. In my case the intermediate certificate was wrong.

If the certificate is ok, make sure the openSSL on your server is up to date. Run openssl -v to check your version. Maybe your version is to old to work with the certificate.

In very rare cases you might want to disable ssl security features like verify_peer, verify_peer_name or allow_self_signed. Please be very careful with this and never use this in production. This is only an option for temporary testing.

If Python is interpreted, what are .pyc files?

Python's *.py file is just a text file in which you write some lines of code. When you try to execute this file using say "python filename.py"

This command invokes Python Virtual Machine. Python Virtual Machine has 2 components: "compiler" and "interpreter". Interpreter cannot directly read the text in *.py file, so this text is first converted into a byte code which is targeted to the PVM (not hardware but PVM). PVM executes this byte code. *.pyc file is also generated, as part of running it which performs your import operation on file in shell or in some other file.

If this *.pyc file is already generated then every next time you run/execute your *.py file, system directly loads your *.pyc file which won't need any compilation(This will save you some machine cycles of processor).

Once the *.pyc file is generated, there is no need of *.py file, unless you edit it.

How do you change the document font in LaTeX?

I found the solution thanks to the link in Vincent's answer.

 \renewcommand{\familydefault}{\sfdefault}

This changes the default font family to sans-serif.

How does C compute sin() and other math functions?

There's nothing like hitting the source and seeing how someone has actually done it in a library in common use; let's look at one C library implementation in particular. I chose uLibC.

Here's the sin function:

http://git.uclibc.org/uClibc/tree/libm/s_sin.c

which looks like it handles a few special cases, and then carries out some argument reduction to map the input to the range [-pi/4,pi/4], (splitting the argument into two parts, a big part and a tail) before calling

http://git.uclibc.org/uClibc/tree/libm/k_sin.c

which then operates on those two parts. If there is no tail, an approximate answer is generated using a polynomial of degree 13. If there is a tail, you get a small corrective addition based on the principle that sin(x+y) = sin(x) + sin'(x')y

What are good examples of genetic algorithms/genetic programming solutions?

It was a while ago, but I rolled a GA to evolve what were in effect image processing kernels to remove cosmic ray traces from Hubble Space Telescope (HST) images. The standard approach is to take multiple exposures with the Hubble and keep only the stuff that is the same in all the images. Since HST time is so valuable, I'm an astronomy buff, and had recently attended the Congress on Evolutionary Computation, I thought about using a GA to clean up single exposures.

The individuals were in the form of trees that took a 3x3 pixel area as input, performed some calculations, and produced a decision about whether and how to modify the center pixel. Fitness was judged by comparing the output with an image cleaned up in the traditional way (i.e. stacking exposures).

It actually sort of worked, but not well enough to warrant foregoing the original approach. If I hadn't been time-constrained by my thesis, I might have expanded the genetic parts bin available to the algorithm. I'm pretty sure I could have improved it significantly.

Libraries used: If I recall correctly, IRAF and cfitsio for astronomical image data processing and I/O.

Run script with rc.local: script works, but not at boot

You might also have made it work by specifying the full path to node. Furthermore, when you want to run a shell command as a daemon you should close stdin by adding 1<&- before the &.

IndentationError: unexpected unindent WHY?

This error could actually be in the code preceding where the error is reported. See the For example, if you have a syntax error as below, you'll get the indentation error. The syntax error is actually next to the "except" because it should contain a ":" right after it. 

try:
    #do something
except
    print 'error/exception'


def printError(e):
    print e

If you change "except" above to "except:", the error will go away.

Good luck.

Graphical user interface Tutorial in C

My favourite UI tutorials all come from zetcode.com:

These are tutorials I'd consider to be "starting tutorials". The example tutorial gets you up and going, but doesn't show you anything too advanced or give much explanation. Still, often, I find the big problem is "how do I start?" and these have always proved useful to me.

Bootstrap : TypeError: $(...).modal is not a function

I had also faced same error when i was trying to call bootstrap modal from jquery. But this happens because we are using bootstrap modal and for this we need to attach one cdn bootstrap.min.js which is

<script src="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.7/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>

Hope this will help as I missed that when i was trying to call bootstrap modal from jQuery using

$('#button').on('click',function(){ $('#myModal').modal(); });

myModal is the id of Bootstrap modal and you have to give a click event to a button when you call click that button a pop up modal will be displayed.

Python function to convert seconds into minutes, hours, and days

The "timeit" answer above that declares divmod to be slower has seriously flawed logic.

Test1 calls operators.

Test2 calls the function divmod, and calling a function has overhead.

A more accurate way to test would be:

import timeit

def moddiv(a,b):
  q= a/b
  r= a%b
  return q,r

a=10
b=3
md=0
dm=0
for i in range(1,10):
  c=a*i
  md+= timeit.timeit( lambda: moddiv(c,b))
  dm+=timeit.timeit( lambda: divmod(c,b))

print("moddiv ", md)
print("divmod ", dm)




moddiv  5.806157339000492

divmod  4.322451676005585

divmod is faster.

How to start http-server locally

When you're running npm install in the project's root, it installs all of the npm dependencies into the project's node_modules directory.

If you take a look at the project's node_modules directory, you should see a directory called http-server, which holds the http-server package, and a .bin folder, which holds the executable binaries from the installed dependencies. The .bin directory should have the http-server binary (or a link to it).

So in your case, you should be able to start the http-server by running the following from your project's root directory (instead of npm start):

./node_modules/.bin/http-server -a localhost -p 8000 -c-1

This should have the same effect as running npm start.

If you're running a Bash shell, you can simplify this by adding the ./node_modules/.bin folder to your $PATH environment variable:

export PATH=./node_modules/.bin:$PATH

This will put this folder on your path, and you should be able to simply run

http-server -a localhost -p 8000 -c-1

How do I write to the console from a Laravel Controller?

It's very simple.

You can call it from anywhere in APP.

How to specify a multi-line shell variable?

read does not export the variable (which is a good thing most of the time). Here's an alternative which can be exported in one command, can preserve or discard linefeeds, and allows mixing of quoting-styles as needed. Works for bash and zsh.

oneLine=$(printf %s \
    a   \
    " b "   \
    $'\tc\t'    \
    'd '    \
)
multiLine=$(printf '%s\n' \
    a   \
    " b "   \
    $'\tc\t'    \
    'd '    \
)

I admit the need for quoting makes this ugly for SQL, but it answers the (more generally expressed) question in the title.

I use it like this

export LS_COLORS=$(printf %s    \
    ':*rc=36:*.ini=36:*.inf=36:*.cfg=36:*~=33:*.bak=33:*$=33'   \
    ...
    ':bd=40;33;1:cd=40;33;1:or=1;31:mi=31:ex=00')

in a file sourced from both my .bashrc and .zshrc.

How to ignore parent css style

It would make sense for CSS to have a way to simply add an additional style (in the head section of your page, for example, which would override the linked style sheet) such as this:

<head>
<style>
#elementId select {
    /* turn all styles off (no way to do this) */
}
</style>
</head>

and turn off all previously applied styles, but there is no way to do this. You will have to override the height attribute and set it to a new value in the head section of your pages.

<head>
<style>
#elementId select {
    height:1.5em;
}
</style>
</head>

Could not load NIB in bundle

Also the reason can be the file is looked up in the wrong language specific folder when you messed with localizations.

Which loop is faster, while or for?

They should be equal. The for loop you wrote is doing exactly the same thing that the while loop is doing: setting $i=0, printing $i, and incrementing $i at the end of the loop.

Python strip() multiple characters?

string.translate with table=None works fine.

TypeScript and field initializers

In some scenarios it may be acceptable to use Object.create. The Mozilla reference includes a polyfill if you need back-compatibility or want to roll your own initializer function.

Applied to your example:

Object.create(Person.prototype, {
    'Field1': { value: 'ASD' },
    'Field2': { value: 'QWE' }
});

Useful Scenarios

  • Unit Tests
  • Inline declaration

In my case I found this useful in unit tests for two reasons:

  1. When testing expectations I often want to create a slim object as an expectation
  2. Unit test frameworks (like Jasmine) may compare the object prototype (__proto__) and fail the test. For example:
var actual = new MyClass();
actual.field1 = "ASD";
expect({ field1: "ASD" }).toEqual(actual); // fails

The output of the unit test failure will not yield a clue about what is mismatched.

  1. In unit tests I can be selective about what browsers I support

Finally, the solution proposed at http://typescript.codeplex.com/workitem/334 does not support inline json-style declaration. For example, the following does not compile: 

var o = { 
  m: MyClass: { Field1:"ASD" }
};

How to get value of Radio Buttons?

You can also use a Common Event for your RadioButtons, and you can use the Tag property to pass information to your string or you can use the Text Property if you want your string to hold the same value as the Text of your RadioButton.

Something like this.

How to set focus on a view when a layout is created and displayed?

Set focus: The framework will handled moving focus in response to user input. To force focus to a specific view, call requestFocus()

Where in memory are my variables stored in C?

Linux minimal runnable examples with disassembly analysis

Since this is an implementation detail not specified by standards, let's just have a look at what the compiler is doing on a particular implementation.

In this answer, I will either link to specific answers that do the analysis, or provide the analysis directly here, and summarize all results here.

All of those are in various Ubuntu / GCC versions, and the outcomes are likely pretty stable across versions, but if we find any variations let's specify more precise versions.

Local variable inside a function

Be it main or any other function:

void f(void) {
    int my_local_var;
}

As shown at: What does <value optimized out> mean in gdb?

  • -O0: stack
  • -O3: registers if they don't spill, stack otherwise

For motivation on why the stack exists see: What is the function of the push / pop instructions used on registers in x86 assembly?

Global variables and static function variables

/* BSS */
int my_global_implicit;
int my_global_implicit_explicit_0 = 0;

/* DATA */
int my_global_implicit_explicit_1 = 1;

void f(void) {
    /* BSS */
    static int my_static_local_var_implicit;
    static int my_static_local_var_explicit_0 = 0;

    /* DATA */
    static int my_static_local_var_explicit_1 = 1;
}
  • if initialized to 0 or not initialized (and therefore implicitly initialized to 0): .bss section, see also: Why is the .bss segment required?
  • otherwise: .data section

char * and char c[]

As shown at: Where are static variables stored in C and C++?

void f(void) {
    /* RODATA / TEXT */
    char *a = "abc";

    /* Stack. */
    char b[] = "abc";
    char c[] = {'a', 'b', 'c', '\0'};
}

TODO will very large string literals also be put on the stack? Or .data? Or does compilation fail?

Function arguments

void f(int i, int j);

Must go through the relevant calling convention, e.g.: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X86_calling_conventions for X86, which specifies either specific registers or stack locations for each variable.

Then as shown at What does <value optimized out> mean in gdb?, -O0 then slurps everything into the stack, while -O3 tries to use registers as much as possible.

If the function gets inlined however, they are treated just like regular locals.

const

I believe that it makes no difference because you can typecast it away.

Conversely, if the compiler is able to determine that some data is never written to, it could in theory place it in .rodata even if not const.

TODO analysis.

Pointers

They are variables (that contain addresses, which are numbers), so same as all the rest :-)

malloc

The question does not make much sense for malloc, since malloc is a function, and in:

int *i = malloc(sizeof(int));

*i is a variable that contains an address, so it falls on the above case.

As for how malloc works internally, when you call it the Linux kernel marks certain addresses as writable on its internal data structures, and when they are touched by the program initially, a fault happens and the kernel enables the page tables, which lets the access happen without segfaul: How does x86 paging work?

Note however that this is basically exactly what the exec syscall does under the hood when you try to run an executable: it marks pages it wants to load to, and writes the program there, see also: How does kernel get an executable binary file running under linux? Except that exec has some extra limitations on where to load to (e.g. is the code is not relocatable).

The exact syscall used for malloc is mmap in modern 2020 implementations, and in the past brk was used: Does malloc() use brk() or mmap()?

Dynamic libraries

Basically get mmaped to memory: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/226524/what-system-call-is-used-to-load-libraries-in-linux/462710#462710

envinroment variables and main's argv

Above initial stack: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/75939/where-is-the-environment-string-actual-stored TODO why not in .data?

1052: Column 'id' in field list is ambiguous

You would do that by providing a fully qualified name, e.g.:

SELECT tbl_names.id as id, name, section FROM tbl_names, tbl_section WHERE tbl_names.id = tbl_section.id

Which would give you the id of tbl_names

How to initialize all members of an array to the same value?

You can do the whole static initializer thing as detailed above, but it can be a real bummer when your array size changes (when your array embiggens, if you don't add the appropriate extra initializers you get garbage).

memset gives you a runtime hit for doing the work, but no code size hit done right is immune to array size changes. I would use this solution in nearly all cases when the array was larger than, say, a few dozen elements.

If it was really important that the array was statically declared, I'd write a program to write the program for me and make it part of the build process.

How to pass arguments within docker-compose?

Now docker-compose supports variable substitution.

Compose uses the variable values from the shell environment in which docker-compose is run. For example, suppose the shell contains POSTGRES_VERSION=9.3 and you supply this configuration in your docker-compose.yml file:

db:
  image: "postgres:${POSTGRES_VERSION}"

When you run docker-compose up with this configuration, Compose looks for the POSTGRES_VERSION environment variable in the shell and substitutes its value in. For this example, Compose resolves the image to postgres:9.3 before running the configuration.

How do I use modulus for float/double?

I thought the regular modulus operator would work for this in java, but it can't be hard to code. Just divide the numerator by the denominator, and take the integer portion of the result. Multiply that by the denominator, and subtract the result from the numerator.

x = n / d
xint = Integer portion of x
result = n - d * xint

How to install mysql-connector via pip

To install the official MySQL Connector for Python, please use the name mysql-connector-python:

pip install mysql-connector-python

Some further discussion, when we pip search for mysql-connector at this time (Nov, 2018), the most related results shown as follow:

$ pip search mysql-connector | grep ^mysql-connector
mysql-connector (2.1.6)                  - MySQL driver written in Python
mysql-connector-python (8.0.13)          - MySQL driver written in Python
mysql-connector-repackaged (0.3.1)       - MySQL driver written in Python
mysql-connector-async-dd (2.0.2)         - mysql async connection
mysql-connector-python-rf (2.2.2)        - MySQL driver written in Python
mysql-connector-python-dd (2.0.2)        - MySQL driver written in Python

  • mysql-connector (2.1.6) is provided on PyPI when MySQL didn't provide their official pip install on PyPI at beginning (which was inconvenient). But it is a fork, and is stopped updating, so

    pip install mysql-connector

    will install this obsolete version.

  • And now mysql-connector-python (8.0.13) on PyPI is the official package maintained by MySQL, so this is the one we should install.

Redirect non-www to www in .htaccess

I have tested all the above solutions but not working for me, i have tried to remove the http:// and won't redirect also removed the www it redirect well, so i get confused, specially i am running all my sites under https://

So i have combined some codes together and came up with perfect solution for both http:// and https:// and www and non-www.

# HTTPS forced
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{SERVER_NAME}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]
# Redirect to www
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L]
</IfModule>

Hope this can help someone :)

How can I view the contents of an ElasticSearch index?

I can recommend Elasticvue, which is modern, free and open source. It allows accessing your ES instance via browser add-ons quite easily (supports Firefox, Chrome, Edge). But there are also further ways.

Just make sure you set cors values in elasticsearch.yml appropiate.

jQuery.css() - marginLeft vs. margin-left?

I think it is so it can keep consistency with the available options used when settings multiple css styles in one function call through the use of an object, for example...

$(".element").css( { marginLeft : "200px", marginRight : "200px" } );

as you can see the property are not specified as strings. JQuery also supports using string if you still wanted to use the dash, or for properties that perhaps cannot be set without the dash, so the following still works...

$(".element").css( { "margin-left" : "200px", "margin-right" : "200px" } );

without the quotes here, the javascript would not parse correctly as property names cannot have a dash in them.

EDIT: It would appear that JQuery is not actually making the distinction itsleft, instead it is just passing the property specified for the DOM to care about, most likely with style[propertyName];

Array initialization in Perl

To produce the output in your comment to your post, this will do it:

use strict;
use warnings;

my @other_array = (0,0,0,1,2,2,3,3,3,4);
my @array;
my %uniqs;

$uniqs{$_}++ for @other_array;

foreach (keys %uniqs) { $array[$_]=$uniqs{$_} }

print "array[$_] = $array[$_]\n" for (0..$#array);

Output:

   array[0] = 3
   array[1] = 1
   array[2] = 2
   array[3] = 3
   array[4] = 1

This is different than your stated algorithm of producing a parallel array with zero values, but it is a more Perly way of doing it...

If you must have a parallel array that is the same size as your first array with the elements initialized to 0, this statement will dynamically do it: @array=(0) x scalar(@other_array); but really, you don't need to do that.

How to create streams from string in Node.Js?

From node 10.17, stream.Readable have a from method to easily create streams from any iterable (which includes array literals):

const { Readable } = require("stream")

const readable = Readable.from(["input string"])

readable.on("data", (chunk) => {
  console.log(chunk) // will be called once with `"input string"`
})

Note that at least between 10.17 and 12.3, a string is itself a iterable, so Readable.from("input string") will work, but emit one event per character. Readable.from(["input string"]) will emit one event per item in the array (in this case, one item).

Also note that in later nodes (probably 12.3, since the documentation says the function was changed then), it is no longer necessary to wrap the string in an array.

How to convert integer timestamp to Python datetime

datetime.datetime.fromtimestamp() is correct, except you are probably having timestamp in miliseconds (like in JavaScript), but fromtimestamp() expects Unix timestamp, in seconds.

Do it like that:

>>> import datetime
>>> your_timestamp = 1331856000000
>>> date = datetime.datetime.fromtimestamp(your_timestamp / 1e3)

and the result is:

>>> date
datetime.datetime(2012, 3, 16, 1, 0)

Does it answer your question?

EDIT: J.F. Sebastian correctly suggested to use true division by 1e3 (float 1000). The difference is significant, if you would like to get precise results, thus I changed my answer. The difference results from the default behaviour of Python 2.x, which always returns int when dividing (using / operator) int by int (this is called floor division). By replacing the divisor 1000 (being an int) with the 1e3 divisor (being representation of 1000 as float) or with float(1000) (or 1000. etc.), the division becomes true division. Python 2.x returns float when dividing int by float, float by int, float by float etc. And when there is some fractional part in the timestamp passed to fromtimestamp() method, this method's result also contains information about that fractional part (as the number of microseconds).

How to get milliseconds from LocalDateTime in Java 8

If you have a Java 8 Clock, then you can use clock.millis() (although it recommends you use clock.instant() to get a Java 8 Instant, as it's more accurate).

Why would you use a Java 8 clock? So in your DI framework you can create a Clock bean:

@Bean
public Clock getClock() {
    return Clock.systemUTC();
}

and then in your tests you can easily Mock it:

@MockBean private Clock clock;

or you can have a different bean:

@Bean
public Clock getClock() {
    return Clock.fixed(instant, zone);
}

which helps with tests that assert dates and times immeasurably.

Find specific string in a text file with VBS script

Wow, after few attempts I finally figured out how to deal with my text edits in vbs. The code works perfectly, it gives me the result I was expecting. Maybe it's not the best way to do this, but it does its job. Here's the code:

Using HTML and Local Images Within UIWebView

My complex solution (or tutorial) for rss-feed (get in RSSItems) works only on device:

#define CACHE_DIR       [NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSCachesDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES) lastObject]

for (RSSItem *item in _dataSource) {

    url = [NSURL URLWithString:[item link]];
    request = [NSMutableURLRequest requestWithURL:url];
    [request setHTTPMethod:@"GET"];

    [NSURLConnection sendAsynchronousRequest:request

How to select between brackets (or quotes or ...) in Vim?

To select between the single quotes I usually do a vi' ("select inner single quotes").

Inside a parenthesis block, I use vib ("select inner block")

Inside a curly braces block you can use viB ("capital B")

To make the selections "inclusive" (select also the quotes, parenthesis or braces) you can use a instead of i.

You can read more about the Text object selections on the manual, or :help text-objects within vim.

Import JSON file in React

With json-loader installed, you can use

import customData from '../customData.json';

or also, even more simply

import customData from '../customData';

To install json-loader

npm install --save-dev json-loader

How do I put text on ProgressBar?

AVOID FLICKERING TEXT

The solution provided by Barry above is excellent, but there's is the "flicker-problem".

As soon as the Value is above zero the OnPaint will be envoked repeatedly and the text will flicker.

There is a solution to this. We do not need VisualStyles for the object since we will be drawing it with our own code.

Add the following code to the custom object Barry wrote and you will avoid the flicker:

    [DllImportAttribute("uxtheme.dll")]
    private static extern int SetWindowTheme(IntPtr hWnd, string appname, string idlist);

    protected override void OnHandleCreated(EventArgs e)
    {
        SetWindowTheme(this.Handle, "", "");
        base.OnHandleCreated(e);
    }

I did not write this myself. It found it here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/299983/1163954

I've testet it and it works.

MySQL Foreign Key Error 1005 errno 150 primary key as foreign key

Double check that the foreign keys have exactly the same type as the field you've got in this table. For example, both should be Integer(10), or Varchar (8), even the number of characters.

How do I find the location of my Python site-packages directory?

pip show will give all the details about a package: https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/reference/pip_show/ [pip show][1]

To get the location:

Vue-router redirect on page not found (404)

I think you should be able to use a default route handler and redirect from there to a page outside the app, as detailed below:

const ROUTER_INSTANCE = new VueRouter({
    mode: "history",
    routes: [
        { path: "/", component: HomeComponent },
        // ... other routes ...
        // and finally the default route, when none of the above matches:
        { path: "*", component: PageNotFound }
    ]
})

In the above PageNotFound component definition, you can specify the actual redirect, that will take you out of the app entirely:

Vue.component("page-not-found", {
    template: "",
    created: function() {
        // Redirect outside the app using plain old javascript
        window.location.href = "/my-new-404-page.html";
    }
}

You may do it either on created hook as shown above, or mounted hook also.

Please note:

  1. I have not verified the above. You need to build a production version of app, ensure that the above redirect happens. You cannot test this in vue-cli as it requires server side handling.

  2. Usually in single page apps, server sends out the same index.html along with app scripts for all route requests, especially if you have set <base href="/">. This will fail for your /404-page.html unless your server treats it as a special case and serves the static page.

Let me know if it works!

Update for Vue 3 onward:

You'll need to replace the '*' path property with '/:pathMatch(.*)*' if you're using Vue 3 as the old catch-all path of '*' is no longer supported. The route would then look something like this:

{ path: '/:pathMatch(.*)*', component: PathNotFound },

See the docs for more info on this update.

What is inf and nan?

Inf is infinity, it's a "bigger than all the other numbers" number. Try subtracting anything you want from it, it doesn't get any smaller. All numbers are < Inf. -Inf is similar, but smaller than everything.

NaN means not-a-number. If you try to do a computation that just doesn't make sense, you get NaN. Inf - Inf is one such computation. Usually NaN is used to just mean that some data is missing.

JavaScript - Replace all commas in a string

The third parameter of String.prototype.replace() function was never defined as a standard, so most browsers simply do not implement it.

The best way is to use regular expression with g (global) flag.

_x000D_
_x000D_ 
var myStr = 'this,is,a,test';_x000D_
var newStr = myStr.replace(/,/g, '-');_x000D_
_x000D_
console.log( newStr );  // "this-is-a-test"
_x000D_
_x000D_
_x000D_

Still have issues?

It is important to note, that regular expressions use special characters that need to be escaped. As an example, if you need to escape a dot (.) character, you should use /\./ literal, as in the regex syntax a dot matches any single character (except line terminators).

_x000D_
_x000D_ 
var myStr = 'this.is.a.test';_x000D_
var newStr = myStr.replace(/\./g, '-');_x000D_
_x000D_
console.log( newStr );  // "this-is-a-test"
_x000D_
_x000D_
_x000D_

If you need to pass a variable as a replacement string, instead of using regex literal you may create RegExp object and pass a string as the first argument of the constructor. The normal string escape rules (preceding special characters with \ when included in a string) will be necessary.

_x000D_
_x000D_ 
var myStr = 'this.is.a.test';_x000D_
var reStr = '\\.';_x000D_
var newStr = myStr.replace(new RegExp(reStr, 'g'), '-');_x000D_
_x000D_
console.log( newStr );  // "this-is-a-test"
_x000D_
_x000D_
_x000D_

How to convert nanoseconds to seconds using the TimeUnit enum?

Failed to start mongod.service: Unit mongod.service not found

To solve the problem of not being able to start mongodb on ubuntu 16.04 1) look at mongodb log file enter image description here

2) we find that the error is due to "Failed to unlink socket file /tmp/mongodb-27017"

3) Look at the permission of file /tmp/mongdb-27017.lock and find that the owner is root instead of mongodb

4) Delete the /tmp/mongodb-27017.sock file manually and use the command "sudo chown mongodb:mongodb /tmp/mongodb*"

5) Start the service with systemcl and use netstat to check whther mongdob has been started on port 27017

How to get HTML 5 input type="date" working in Firefox and/or IE 10

Sometimes you do not want use Datepicker http://jqueryui.com/datepicker/ in your project because:

  • You do not want use jquery
  • Conflict of jquery versions in your project
  • Choice of the year is not convenient. For example you need 120 clicks on the prev button for moving to 10 years ago.

Please see my very simple cross browser code for date input. My code apply only if your browser is not supports the date type input
