How do I base64 encode a string efficiently using Excel VBA?

As Mark C points out, you can use the MSXML Base64 encoding functionality as described here.

I prefer late binding because it's easier to deploy, so here's the same function that will work without any VBA references:

Function EncodeBase64(text As String) As String
  Dim arrData() As Byte
  arrData = StrConv(text, vbFromUnicode)

  Dim objXML As Variant
  Dim objNode As Variant

  Set objXML = CreateObject("MSXML2.DOMDocument")
  Set objNode = objXML.createElement("b64")

  objNode.dataType = "bin.base64"
  objNode.nodeTypedValue = arrData
  EncodeBase64 = objNode.text

  Set objNode = Nothing
  Set objXML = Nothing
End Function

How can I get key's value from dictionary in Swift?

For finding value use below

if let a = companies["AAPL"] {
   // a is the value
}

For traversing through the dictionary

for (key, value) in companies {
    print(key,"---", value)
}

Finally for searching key by value you firstly add the extension

extension Dictionary where Value: Equatable {
    func findKey(forValue val: Value) -> Key? {
        return first(where: { $1 == val })?.key
    }
}

Then just call

companies.findKey(val : "Apple Inc")

Rename Files and Directories (Add Prefix)

On my system, I don't have the rename command. Here is a simple one liner. It finds all the HTML files recursively and adds prefix_ in front of their names:

for f in $(find . -name '*.html'); do mv "$f" "$(dirname "$f")/prefix_$(basename "$f")"; done

PHP upload image

Here is a basic example of how an image file with certain restrictions (listed below) can be uploaded to the server.

  • Existence of the image.
  • Image extension validation

  • Checks for image size.

    <?php
   $newfilename = "newfilename";

   if(isset($_FILES['image'])){
      $errors= array();
      $file_name = $_FILES['image']['name'];
      $file_size =$_FILES['image']['size'];
      $file_tmp =$_FILES['image']['tmp_name'];
      $file_type=$_FILES['image']['type'];
      $file_ext=strtolower(end(explode('.',$_FILES['image']['name'])));

      $expensions= array("jpeg","jpg","png");
      if(file_exists($file_name)) {
        echo "Sorry, file already exists.";
        }
      if(in_array($file_ext,$expensions)=== false){
         $errors[]="extension not allowed, please choose a JPEG or PNG file.";
      }

      if($file_size > 2097152){
         $errors[]='File size must be excately 2 MB';
      }

      if(empty($errors)==true){
        move_uploaded_file($file_tmp,"images/".$newfilename.".".$file_ext);
        echo "Success";
        echo "<script>window.close();</script>";

      }

      else{
         print_r($errors);
      }
   }
?>

Inversion of Control vs Dependency Injection

I found best example on Dzone.com which is really helpfull to understand the real different between IOC and DI

“IoC is when you have someone else create objects for you.” So instead of writing "new " keyword (For example, MyCode c=new MyCode())in your code, the object is created by someone else. This ‘someone else’ is normally referred to as an IoC container. It means we handover the rrsponsibility (control )to the container to get instance of object is called Inversion of Control., means instead of you are creating object using new operator, let the container do that for you.

   DI(Dependency Injection):  Way of injecting properties to an object is 
   called 
  Dependency injection.
   We have three types of Dependency injection
    1)  Constructor Injection
    2)  Setter/Getter Injection
    3)  Interface Injection
   Spring will support only Constructor Injection and Setter/Getter Injection.

Django database query: How to get object by id?

You can also use get_object_or_404 django shortcut. It raises a 404 error if object is not found.

jQuery scroll to ID from different page

 
function scroll_down(){
    $.noConflict();
    jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
        $('html, body').animate({
            scrollTop : $("#bottom").offset().top
        }, 1);
    });
    return false;
}

here "bottom" is the div tag id where you want to scroll to. For changing the animation effects, you can change the time from '1' to a different value

How Do I Take a Screen Shot of a UIView?

The following snippet is used to take screenshot :

UIGraphicsBeginImageContext(self.muUIView.bounds.size);

[myUIView.layer renderInContext:UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext()];

UIImage *screenShot = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext();
UIGraphicsEndImageContext();

Use renderInContext: method instead of drawInContext: method

renderInContext: method renders the receiver and its sublayers into current context. This method renders directly from the layer tree.

JQuery Event for user pressing enter in a textbox?

I could not get the keypress event to fire for the enter button, and scratched my head for some time, until I read the jQuery docs:

"The keypress event is sent to an element when the browser registers keyboard input. This is similar to the keydown event, except that modifier and non-printing keys such as Shift, Esc, and delete trigger keydown events but not keypress events." (https://api.jquery.com/keypress/)

I had to use the keyup or keydown event to catch a press of the enter button.

How does Junit @Rule work?

The explanation for how it works:

JUnit wraps your test method in a Statement object so statement and Execute() runs your test. Then instead of calling statement.Execute() directly to run your test, JUnit passes the Statement to a TestRule with the @Rule annotation. The TestRule's "apply" function returns a new Statement given the Statement with your test. The new Statement's Execute() method can call the test Statement's execute method (or not, or call it multiple times), and do whatever it wants before and after.

Now, JUnit has a new Statement that does more than just run the test, and it can again pass that to any more rules before finally calling Execute.

Session TimeOut in web.xml

Another option I would recommend is to create a separate application that is stateless that would take the large file. On your main app open a new window or iframe that will accept the file and send it through that window then hide the window or iframe once the upload has started using Javascript.

how to configure lombok in eclipse luna

For Gradle users, if you are using Eclipse or one of its offshoots(I am using STS 4.5.1.RELEASE), all that you need to do is:

  • In build.gradle, you ONLY need these 2 "extra" instructions:

    dependencies {
  compileOnly 'org.projectlombok:lombok'  
  annotationProcessor 'org.projectlombok:lombok'
}

  • Right-click on your project > Gradle > Refresh Gradle Project. The lombok-"version".jar will appear inside your project's Project and External Dependencies

  • Right-click on that lombok-"version".jar > Run As > Java Application (similar to double-clicking on the actual jar or running java -jar lombok-"version".jar on the command line.)

  • A GUI will appear, follow the instructions and one of the thing it does is to copy lombok.jar to your IDE's root.

  • The only other thing you will need to do(outside of the GUI) is to add that lombok.jar to your project build path



That's it!

Android textview usage as label and value

You should implement a Custom List View, such that you define a Layout once and draw it for every row in the list view.

Table scroll with HTML and CSS

For whatever it's worth now: here is yet another solution:

  • create two divs within a display: inline-block
  • in the first div, put a table with only the header (header table tabhead)
  • in the 2nd div, put a table with header and data (data table / full table tabfull)
  • use JavaScript, use setTimeout(() => {/*...*/}) to execute code after render / after filling the table with results from fetch
  • measure the width of each th in the data table (using clientWidth)
  • apply the same width to the counterpart in the header table
  • set visibility of the header of the data table to hidden and set the margin top to -1 * height of data table thead pixels

With a few tweaks, this is the method to use (for brevity / simplicity, I used d3js, the same operations can be done using plain DOM): 

setTimeout(() => { // pass one cycle
  d3.select('#tabfull')
    .style('margin-top', (-1 * d3.select('#tabscroll').select('thead').node().getBoundingClientRect().height) + 'px')
    .select('thead')
      .style('visibility', 'hidden');
  let widths=[]; // really rely on COMPUTED values
  d3.select('#tabfull').select('thead').selectAll('th')
    .each((n, i, nd) => widths.push(nd[i].clientWidth));
  d3.select('#tabhead').select('thead').selectAll('th')
    .each((n, i, nd) => d3.select(nd[i])
          .style('padding-right', 0)
          .style('padding-left', 0)
          .style('width', widths[i]+'px'));
})

Waiting on render cycle has the advantage of using the browser layout engine thoughout the process - for any type of header; it's not bound to special condition or cell content lengths being somehow similar. It also adjusts correctly for visible scrollbars (like on Windows)

How to connect to my http://localhost web server from Android Emulator

I needed to figure out the system host IP address for the emulator "Nox App Player". Here is how I figured out it was 172.17.100.2.

  1. Installed Android Terminal Emulator from the app store
  2. Issue ip link show command to show all network interfaces. Of particular interest was the eth1 interface
  3. Issue ifconfig eth1 command, shows net as 172.17.100.15/255.255.255.0
  4. Begin pinging addresses starting at 172.17.100.1, got a hit on `172.17.100.2'. Not sure if a firewall would interfere but it didn't in my case

Maybe this can help someone else figure it out for other emulators.

Use NSInteger as array index

According to the error message, you declared myLoc as a pointer to an NSInteger (NSInteger *myLoc) rather than an actual NSInteger (NSInteger myLoc). It needs to be the latter.

Curl error: Operation timed out

Some time this error in Joomla appear because some thing incorrect with SESSION or coockie. That may because incorrect HTTPd server setting or because some before CURL or Server http requests

so PHP code like:

  curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url_page);
  curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 1);
  curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1);
  curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 30); 
  curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIESESSION, TRUE);
  curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_REFERER, $url_page);
  curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT']);
  curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE, dirname(__FILE__) . "./cookie.txt");
  curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR, dirname(__FILE__) . "./cookie.txt");
  curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIE, session_name() . '=' . session_id());

  curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1);
  if( $sc != "" ) curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIE, $sc);

will need replace to PHP code

  curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url_page);
  curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 1);
  curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1);
  curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 30);

//curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR, dirname(__FILE__) . "./cookie.txt");
//curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIE, session_name() . '=' . session_id());

    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, false); // !!!!!!!!!!!!!
  //if( $sc != "" ) curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIE, $sc);

Does height and width not apply to span?

Try using a div instead of the span or using the CSS display: block; or display: inline-block;—span is by default an inline element which cannot take width and height properties.

{
   array[++i] = strtok(NULL,"/");
}

How to get first and last day of the current week in JavaScript

An old question with lots of answers, so another one won't be an issue. Some general functions to get the start and end of all sorts of time units.

For startOf and endOf week, the start day of the week defaults to Sunday (0) but any day can be passed (Monday - 1, Tuesday - 2, etc.). Only uses Gregorian calendar though.

The functions don't mutate the source date, so to see if a date is in the same week as some other date (week starting on Monday):

if (d >= startOf('week', d1, 1) && d <= endOf('week', d1, 1)) {
  // d is in same week as d1
}

or in the current week starting on Sunday:

if (d >= startOf('week') && d <= endOf('week')) {
  // d is in the current week
}

Multiple IF statements between number ranges

It's a little tricky because of the nested IFs but here is my answer (confirmed in Google Spreadsheets):

=IF(AND(A2>=0,    A2<500),  "Less than 500", 
 IF(AND(A2>=500,  A2<1000), "Between 500 and 1000", 
 IF(AND(A2>=1000, A2<1500), "Between 1000 and 1500", 
 IF(AND(A2>=1500, A2<2000), "Between 1500 and 2000", "Undefined"))))

Switching the order of block elements with CSS

I known this is old, but I found a easier solution and it works on ie10, firefox and chrome:

<div id="wrapper">
  <div id="one">One</div>
  <div id="two">Two</div>
  <div id="three">Three</div>
</div>

This is the css:

#wrapper {display:table;}
#one {display:table-footer-group;}
#three {display:table-header-group;}

And the result:

"Three"
"Two"
"One"

How connect Postgres to localhost server using pgAdmin on Ubuntu?

Create a user first. You must do this as user postgres. Because the postgres system account has no password assigned, you can either set a password first, or you go like this:

sudo /bin/bash
# you should be root now  
su postgres
# you are postgres now
createuser --interactive

and the programm will prompt you.

Differences in boolean operators: & vs && and | vs ||

I know there's a lot of answers here, but they all seem a bit confusing. So after doing some research from the Java oracle study guide, I've come up with three different scenarios of when to use && or &. The three scenarios are logical AND, bitwise AND, and boolean AND.

Logical AND: Logical AND (aka Conditional AND) uses the && operator. It's short-circuited meaning: if the left operand is false, then the right operand will not be evaluated.
Example:

int x = 0;
if (false && (1 == ++x) {
    System.out.println("Inside of if");
}
System.out.println(x); // "0"

In the above example the value printed to the console of x will be 0, because the first operand in the if statement is false, hence java has no need to compute (1 == ++x) therefore x will not be computed.

Bitwise AND: Bitwise AND uses the & operator. It's used to preform a bitwise operation on the value. It's much easier to see what's going on by looking at operation on binary numbers ex:

int a = 5;     //                    5 in binary is 0101
int b = 12;    //                   12 in binary is 1100
int c = a & b; // bitwise & preformed on a and b is 0100 which is 4

As you can see in the example, when the binary representations of the numbers 5 and 12 are lined up, then a bitwise AND preformed will only produce a binary number where the same digit in both numbers have a 1. Hence 0101 & 1100 == 0100. Which in decimal is 5 & 12 == 4.

Boolean AND: Now the boolean AND operator behaves similarly and differently to both the bitwise AND and logical AND. I like to think of it as preforming a bitwise AND between two boolean values (or bits), therefore it uses & operator. The boolean values can be the result of a logical expression too.

It returns either a true or false value, much like the logical AND, but unlike the logical AND it is not short-circuited. The reason being, is that for it to preform that bitwise AND, it must know the value of both left and right operands. Here's an ex:

int x = 0;
if (false & (1 == ++x) {
    System.out.println("Inside of if");
}
System.out.println(x); //"1"

Now when that if statement is ran, the expression (1 == ++x) will be executed, even though the left operand is false. Hence the value printed out for x will be 1 because it got incremented.

This also applies to Logical OR (||), bitwise OR (|), and boolean OR (|) Hope this clears up some confusion.

How to get main div container to align to centre?

Do not use the * selector as that will apply to all elements on the page. Suppose you have a structure like this:

...
<body>
    <div id="content">
        <b>This is the main container.</b>
    </div>
</body>
</html>

You can then center the #content div using:

#content {
    width: 400px;
    margin: 0 auto;
    background-color: #66ffff;
}

Don't know what you've seen elsewhere but this is the way to go. The * { margin: 0; padding: 0; } snippet you've seen is for resetting browser's default definitions for all browsers to make your site behave similarly on all browsers, this has nothing to do with centering the main container.

Most browsers apply a default margin and padding to some elements which usually isn't consistent with other browsers' implementations. This is why it is often considered smart to use this kind of 'resetting'. The reset snippet you presented is the most simplest of reset stylesheets, you can read more about the subject here:

?: ?? Operators Instead Of IF|ELSE

I don't think you can its an operator and its suppose to return one or the other. It's not if else statement replacement although it can be use for that on certain case.

How do I specify row heights in CSS Grid layout?

One of the Related posts gave me the (simple) answer.

Apparently the auto value on the grid-template-rows property does exactly what I was looking for. 

.grid {
    display:grid;
    grid-template-columns: 1fr 1.5fr 1fr;
    grid-template-rows: auto auto 1fr 1fr 1fr auto auto;
    grid-gap:10px;
    height: calc(100vh - 10px);
}

How to write a cursor inside a stored procedure in SQL Server 2008

What's wrong with just simply using a single, simple UPDATE statement??

UPDATE dbo.Coupon
SET NoofUses = (SELECT COUNT(*) FROM dbo.CouponUse WHERE Couponid = dbo.Coupon.ID)

That's all that's needed ! No messy and complicated cursor, no looping, no RBAR (row-by-agonizing-row) processing ..... just a nice, simple, clean set-based SQL statement.

Calculate cosine similarity given 2 sentence strings

A simple pure-Python implementation would be:

import math
import re
from collections import Counter

WORD = re.compile(r"\w+")


def get_cosine(vec1, vec2):
    intersection = set(vec1.keys()) & set(vec2.keys())
    numerator = sum([vec1[x] * vec2[x] for x in intersection])

    sum1 = sum([vec1[x] ** 2 for x in list(vec1.keys())])
    sum2 = sum([vec2[x] ** 2 for x in list(vec2.keys())])
    denominator = math.sqrt(sum1) * math.sqrt(sum2)

    if not denominator:
        return 0.0
    else:
        return float(numerator) / denominator


def text_to_vector(text):
    words = WORD.findall(text)
    return Counter(words)


text1 = "This is a foo bar sentence ."
text2 = "This sentence is similar to a foo bar sentence ."

vector1 = text_to_vector(text1)
vector2 = text_to_vector(text2)

cosine = get_cosine(vector1, vector2)

print("Cosine:", cosine)

Prints:

Cosine: 0.861640436855

The cosine formula used here is described here.

This does not include weighting of the words by tf-idf, but in order to use tf-idf, you need to have a reasonably large corpus from which to estimate tfidf weights.

You can also develop it further, by using a more sophisticated way to extract words from a piece of text, stem or lemmatise it, etc.

How to get a JavaScript object's class?

I find object.constructor.toString() return [object objectClass] in IE ,rather than function objectClass () {} returned in chome. So,I think the code in http://blog.magnetiq.com/post/514962277/finding-out-class-names-of-javascript-objects may not work well in IE.And I fixed the code as follows:

code:

var getObjectClass = function (obj) {
        if (obj && obj.constructor && obj.constructor.toString()) {
            
                /*
                 *  for browsers which have name property in the constructor
                 *  of the object,such as chrome 
                 */
                if(obj.constructor.name) {
                    return obj.constructor.name;
                }
                var str = obj.constructor.toString();
                /*
                 * executed if the return of object.constructor.toString() is 
                 * "[object objectClass]"
                 */
                 
                if(str.charAt(0) == '[')
                {
                        var arr = str.match(/\[\w+\s*(\w+)\]/);
                } else {
                        /*
                         * executed if the return of object.constructor.toString() is 
                         * "function objectClass () {}"
                         * for IE Firefox
                         */
                        var arr = str.match(/function\s*(\w+)/);
                }
                if (arr && arr.length == 2) {
                            return arr[1];
                        }
          }
          return undefined;

sort files by date in PHP

I use your exact proposed code with only some few additional lines. The idea is more or less the same of the one proposed by @elias, but in this solution there cannot be conflicts on the keys since each file in the directory has a different filename and so adding it to the key solves the conflicts. The first part of the key is the datetime string formatted in a manner such that I can lexicographically compare two of them.

if ($handle = opendir('.')) {
    $result = array();
    while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle))) {
        if ($file != "." && $file != "..") {
            $lastModified = date('F d Y, H:i:s',filemtime($file));
            if(strlen($file)-strpos($file,".swf")== 4){
                $result [date('Y-m-d H:i:s',filemtime($file)).$file] =
                    "<tr><td><input type=\"checkbox\" name=\"box[]\"></td><td><a href=\"$file\" target=\"_blank\">$file</a></td><td>$lastModified</td></tr>";
            }
        }
    }
    closedir($handle);
    krsort($result);
    echo implode('', $result);
}

From inside of a Docker container, how do I connect to the localhost of the machine?

Several solutions come to mind:

  1. Move your dependencies into containers first
  2. Make your other services externally accessible and connect to them with that external IP
  3. Run your containers without network isolation
  4. Avoid connecting over the network, use a socket that is mounted as a volume instead

The reason this doesn't work out of the box is that containers run with their own network namespace by default. That means localhost (or 127.0.0.1 pointing to the loopback interface) is unique per container. Connecting to this will connect to the container itself, and not services running outside of docker or inside of a different docker container.

Option 1: If your dependency can be moved into a container, I would do this first. It makes your application stack portable as others try to run your container on their own environment. And you can still publish the port on your host where other services that have not been migrated can still reach it. You can even publish the port to the localhost interface on your docker host to avoid it being externally accessible with a syntax like: -p 127.0.0.1:3306:3306 for the published port.

Option 2: There are a variety of ways to detect the host IP address from inside of the container, but each have a limited number of scenarios where they work (e.g. requiring Docker for Mac). The most portable option is to inject your host IP into the container with something like an environment variable or configuration file, e.g.:

docker run --rm -e "HOST_IP=$(ip route get 1 | sed -n 's/^.*src \([0-9.]*\) .*$/\1/p')" ...

This does require that your service is listening on that external interface, which could be a security concern. For other methods to get the host IP address from inside of the container, see this post.

Slightly less portable is to use host.docker.internal. This works in current versions of Docker for Windows and Docker for Mac. And in 20.10, the capability has been added to Docker for Linux when you pass a special host entry with:

docker run --add-host host.docker.internal:host-gateway ...

The host-gateway is a special value added in Docker 20.10 that automatically expands to a host IP. For more details see this PR.

Option 3: Running without network isolation, i.e. running with --net host, means your application is running on the host network namespace. This is less isolation for the container, and it means you cannot access other containers over a shared docker network with DNS (instead, you need to use published ports to access other containerized applications). But for applications that need to access other services on the host that are only listening on 127.0.0.1 on the host, this can be the easiest option.

Option 4: Various services also allow access over a filesystem based socket. This socket can be mounted into the container as a bind mounted volume, allowing you to access the host service without going over the network. For access to the docker engine, you often see examples of mounting /var/run/docker.sock into the container (giving that container root access to the host). With mysql, you can try something like -v /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock:/var/run/mysqld/mysql.sock and then connect to localhost which mysql converts to using the socket.

How to use font-awesome icons from node-modules

You could add it between your <head></head> tag like so:

<head>
  <link href="./node_modules/font-awesome/css/font-awesome.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">

Or whatever your path to your node_modules is.

Edit (2017-06-26) - Disclaimer: THERE ARE BETTER ANSWERS. PLEASE DO NOT USE THIS METHOD. At the time of this original answer, good tools weren't as prevalent. With current build tools such as webpack or browserify, it probably doesn't make sense to use this answer. I can delete it, but I think it's important to highlight the various options one has and the possible dos and do nots.

PHP - Indirect modification of overloaded property

I've had this same error, without your whole code it is difficult to pinpoint exactly how to fix it but it is caused by not having a __set function.

The way that I have gotten around it in the past is I have done things like this:

$user = createUser();
$role = $user->role;
$role->rolename = 'Test';

now if you do this:

echo $user->role->rolename;

you should see 'Test'

Is <div style="width: ;height: ;background: "> CSS?

Yes, it is called Inline CSS, Here you styling the div using some height, width, and background.

Here the example:

<div style="width:50px;height:50px;background color:red">

You can achieve same using Internal or External CSS

2.Internal CSS:

  <head>
    <style>
    div {
    height:50px;
    width:50px;
    background-color:red;
    foreground-color:white;
    }
    </style>
  </head>
  <body>
    <div></div>
  </body>

3.External CSS:

<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style.css">
</head>
<body>
<div></div>
</body>

style.css /external css file/

 div {
        height:50px;
        width:50px;
        background-color:red;
    }

Nodejs convert string into UTF-8

I'd recommend using the Buffer class:

var someEncodedString = Buffer.from('someString', 'utf-8');

This avoids any unnecessary dependencies that other answers require, since Buffer is included with node.js, and is already defined in the global scope.

How to navigate through textfields (Next / Done Buttons)

In Cocoa for Mac OS X, you have the next responder chain, where you can ask the text field what control should have focus next. This is what makes tabbing between text fields work. But since iOS devices do not have a keyboard, only touch, this concept has not survived the transition to Cocoa Touch.

This can be easily done anyway, with two assumptions:

  1. All "tabbable" UITextFields are on the same parent view.
  2. Their "tab-order" is defined by the tag property.

Assuming this you can override textFieldShouldReturn: as this:

-(BOOL)textFieldShouldReturn:(UITextField*)textField
{
  NSInteger nextTag = textField.tag + 1;
  // Try to find next responder
  UIResponder* nextResponder = [textField.superview viewWithTag:nextTag];
  if (nextResponder) {
    // Found next responder, so set it.
    [nextResponder becomeFirstResponder];
  } else {
    // Not found, so remove keyboard.
    [textField resignFirstResponder];
  }
  return NO; // We do not want UITextField to insert line-breaks.
}

Add some more code, and the assumptions can be ignored as well.

Swift 4.0

 func textFieldShouldReturn(_ textField: UITextField) -> Bool {
    let nextTag = textField.tag + 1
    // Try to find next responder
    let nextResponder = textField.superview?.viewWithTag(nextTag) as UIResponder!

    if nextResponder != nil {
        // Found next responder, so set it
        nextResponder?.becomeFirstResponder()
    } else {
        // Not found, so remove keyboard
        textField.resignFirstResponder()
    }

    return false
}

If the superview of the text field will be a UITableViewCell then next responder will be

let nextResponder = textField.superview?.superview?.superview?.viewWithTag(nextTag) as UIResponder!

What's the difference between using "let" and "var"?

I think the terms and most of the examples are a bit overwhelming, The main issue i had personally with the difference is understanding what a "Block" is. At some point i realized, a block would be any curly brackets except for IF statement. an opening bracket { of a function or loop will define a new block, anything defined with let within it, will not be available after the closing bracket } of the same thing (function or loop); With that in mind, it was easier to understand:

_x000D_
_x000D_ 
let msg = "Hello World";_x000D_
_x000D_
function doWork() { // msg will be available since it was defined above this opening bracket!_x000D_
  let friends = 0;_x000D_
  console.log(msg);_x000D_
_x000D_
  // with VAR though:_x000D_
  for (var iCount2 = 0; iCount2 < 5; iCount2++) {} // iCount2 will be available after this closing bracket!_x000D_
  console.log(iCount2);_x000D_
  _x000D_
    for (let iCount1 = 0; iCount1 < 5; iCount1++) {} // iCount1 will not be available behind this closing bracket, it will return undefined_x000D_
  console.log(iCount1);_x000D_
  _x000D_
} // friends will no be available after this closing bracket!_x000D_
doWork();_x000D_
console.log(friends);
_x000D_

Check if input is integer type in C

This is a more user-friendly one I guess :

#include<stdio.h>

/* This program checks if the entered input is an integer
 * or provides an option for the user to re-enter.
 */

int getint()
{
  int x;
  char c;
  printf("\nEnter an integer (say -1 or 26 or so ): ");
  while( scanf("%d",&x) != 1 )
  {
    c=getchar();

    printf("You have entered ");
    putchar(c);
    printf(" in the input which is not an integer");

    while ( getchar() != '\n' )
     ; //wasting the buffer till the next new line

    printf("\nEnter an integer (say -1 or 26 or so ): ");

  }

return x;
}


int main(void)
{
  int x;
  x=getint();

  printf("Main Function =>\n");
  printf("Integer : %d\n",x);

 return 0;
}

Autocompletion of @author in Intellij

You can work around that via a Live Template. Go to Settings -> Live Template, click the "Add"-Button (green plus on the right).

In the "Abbreviation" field, enter the string that should activate the template (e.g. @a), and in the "Template Text" area enter the string to complete (e.g. @author - My Name). Set the "Applicable context" to Java (Comments only maybe) and set a key to complete (on the right).

I tested it and it works fine, however IntelliJ seems to prefer the inbuild templates, so "@a + Tab" only completes "author". Setting the completion key to Space worked however.

To change the user name that is automatically inserted via the File Templates (when creating a class for example), can be changed by adding

-Duser.name=Your name

to the idea.exe.vmoptions or idea64.exe.vmoptions (depending on your version) in the IntelliJ/bin directory.

PostgreSQL IF statement

From the docs

IF boolean-expression THEN
    statements
ELSE
    statements
END IF;

So in your above example the code should look as follows: 

IF select count(*) from orders > 0
THEN
  DELETE from orders
ELSE 
  INSERT INTO orders values (1,2,3);
END IF;

You were missing: END IF;

How can I find matching values in two arrays?

Naturally, my approach was to loop through the first array once and check the index of each value in the second array. If the index is > -1, then push it onto the returned array.

?Array.prototype.diff = function(arr2) {
    var ret = [];
    for(var i in this) {   
        if(arr2.indexOf(this[i]) > -1){
            ret.push(this[i]);
        }
    }
    return ret;
};

? My solution doesn't use two loops like others do so it may run a bit faster. If you want to avoid using for..in, you can sort both arrays first to reindex all their values:

Array.prototype.diff = function(arr2) {
    var ret = [];
    this.sort();
    arr2.sort();
    for(var i = 0; i < this.length; i += 1) {
        if(arr2.indexOf(this[i]) > -1){
            ret.push(this[i]);
        }
    }
    return ret;
};

Usage would look like:

var array1 = ["cat", "sum","fun", "run", "hut"];
var array2 = ["bat", "cat","dog","sun", "hut", "gut"];

console.log(array1.diff(array2));

If you have an issue/problem with extending the Array prototype, you could easily change this to a function.

var diff = function(arr, arr2) {

And you'd change anywhere where the func originally said this to arr2.

Correct way to delete cookies server-side

At the time of my writing this answer, the accepted answer to this question appears to state that browsers are not required to delete a cookie when receiving a replacement cookie whose Expires value is in the past. That claim is false. Setting Expires to be in the past is the standard, spec-compliant way of deleting a cookie, and user agents are required by spec to respect it.

Using an Expires attribute in the past to delete a cookie is correct and is the way to remove cookies dictated by the spec. The examples section of RFC 6255 states:

Finally, to remove a cookie, the server returns a Set-Cookie header with an expiration date in the past. The server will be successful in removing the cookie only if the Path and the Domain attribute in the Set-Cookie header match the values used when the cookie was created.

The User Agent Requirements section includes the following requirements, which together have the effect that a cookie must be immediately expunged if the user agent receives a new cookie with the same name whose expiry date is in the past

  1. If [when receiving a new cookie] the cookie store contains a cookie with the same name, domain, and path as the newly created cookie:

    1. ...
    2. ...
    3. Update the creation-time of the newly created cookie to match the creation-time of the old-cookie.
    4. Remove the old-cookie from the cookie store.

  2. Insert the newly created cookie into the cookie store.

A cookie is "expired" if the cookie has an expiry date in the past.

The user agent MUST evict all expired cookies from the cookie store if, at any time, an expired cookie exists in the cookie store.

Points 11-3, 11-4, and 12 above together mean that when a new cookie is received with the same name, domain, and path, the old cookie must be expunged and replaced with the new cookie. Finally, the point below about expired cookies further dictates that after that is done, the new cookie must also be immediately evicted. The spec offers no wiggle room to browsers on this point; if a browser were to offer the user the option to disable cookie expiration, as the accepted answer suggests some browsers do, then it would be in violation of the spec. (Such a feature would also have little use, and as far as I know it does not exist in any browser.)

Why, then, did the OP of this question observe this approach failing? Though I have not dusted off a copy of Internet Explorer to check its behaviour, I suspect it was because the OP's Expires value was malformed! They used this value:

expires=Thu, Jan 01 1970 00:00:00 UTC;

However, this is syntactically invalid in two ways.

The syntax section of the spec dictates that the value of the Expires attribute must be a

rfc1123-date, defined in [RFC2616], Section 3.3.1

Following the second link above, we find this given as an example of the format:

Sun, 06 Nov 1994 08:49:37 GMT

and find that the syntax definition...

  1. requires that dates be written in day month year format, not month day year format as used by the question asker.

    Specifically, it defines rfc1123-date as follows:

    rfc1123-date = wkday "," SP date1 SP time SP "GMT"

    and defines date1 like this:

    date1        = 2DIGIT SP month SP 4DIGIT
             ; day month year (e.g., 02 Jun 1982)

and

  1. doesn't permit UTC as a timezone.

    The spec contains the following statement about what timezone offsets are acceptable in this format:

    All HTTP date/time stamps MUST be represented in Greenwich Mean Time (GMT), without exception.

    What's more if we dig deeper into the original spec of this datetime format, we find that in its initial spec in https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc822, the Syntax section lists "UT" (meaning "universal time") as a possible value, but does not list not UTC (Coordinated Universal Time) as valid. As far as I know, using "UTC" in this date format has never been valid; it wasn't a valid value when the format was first specified in 1982, and the HTTP spec has adopted a strictly more restrictive version of the format by banning the use of all "zone" values other than "GMT".

If the question asker here had instead used an Expires attribute like this, then:

expires=Thu, 01 Jan 1970 00:00:00 GMT;

then it would presumably have worked.

Git: Create a branch from unstaged/uncommitted changes on master

If you want your current uncommited changes on the current branch to move to a new branch, use the following command to create a new branch and copy the uncommitted changes automatically.

git checkout -b branch_name

This will create a new branch from your current branch (assuming it to be master), copy the uncommited changes and switch to the new branch.

Add files to stage & commit your changes to the new branch.

git add .
git commit -m "First commit"

Since, a new branch is created, before pushing it to remote, you need to set the upstream. Use the below command to set the upstream and push it to remote.

git push --set-upstream origin feature/feature/NEWBRANCH

Once you hit this command, a new branch will be created at the remote and your new local branch will be pushed to remote.

Now, if you want to throw away your uncommited changes from master branch, use:

git checkout master -f

This will throw away any uncommitted local changes on checkout.

Call to undefined function mysql_query() with Login

You are mixing the deprecated mysql extension with mysqli.

Try something like:

UICollectionView spacing margins

In Objective-C

CGFloat spacing = 5;
UICollectionViewFlowLayout *flow = (UICollectionViewFlowLayout*)_habbitCollectionV.collectionViewLayout;
flow.sectionInset = UIEdgeInsetsMake(0, spacing, 0, spacing);
CGFloat itemsPerRow = 2;
CGRect screenRect = [[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds];
CGFloat oneMore = itemsPerRow + 1;
CGFloat width = screenRect.size.width - spacing * oneMore;
CGFloat height = width / itemsPerRow;

flow.itemSize = CGSizeMake(floor(height), height);
flow.minimumInteritemSpacing = spacing;
flow.minimumLineSpacing = spacing;

All you have to do is change the itemsPerRow value and it will update the number of items per row accordingly. Furthermore, you can change the spacing value if you want more or less general spacing.

How to mark a build unstable in Jenkins when running shell scripts

As a lighter alternative to the existing answers, you can set the build result with a simple HTTP POST to access the Groovy script console REST API:

    curl -X POST \
     --silent \
     --user "$YOUR_CREDENTIALS" \
     --data-urlencode "script=Jenkins.instance.getItemByFullName( '$JOB_NAME' ).getBuildByNumber( $BUILD_NUMBER ).setResult( hudson.model.Result.UNSTABLE )" $JENKINS_URL/scriptText

Advantages:

  • no need to download and run a huge jar file
  • no kludges for setting and reading some global state (console text, files in workspace)
  • no plugins required (besides Groovy)
  • no need to configure an extra build step that is superfluous in the PASSED or FAILURE cases.

For this solution, your environment must meet these conditions:

  • Jenkins REST API can be accessed from slave
  • Slave must have access to credentials that allows to access the Jenkins Groovy script REST API.

Difference between \n and \r?

What’s the difference between \n (newline) and \r (carriage return)?

In particular, are there any practical differences between \n and \r? Are there places where one should be used instead of the other?

I would like to make a short experiment with the respective escape sequences of \n for newline and \r for carriage return to illustrate where the distinct difference between them is.

I know, that this question was asked as language-independent. Nonetheless, We need a language at least in order to fulfill the experiment. In my case, I`ve chosen C++, but the experiment shall generally be applicable in any programming language.

The program simply just iterates to print a sentence into the console, done by a for-loop iteration.

Newline program:

#include <iostream>

int main(void)
{
    for(int i = 0; i < 7; i++)
    {
       std::cout << i + 1  <<".Walkthrough of the for-loop \n";   // Notice `\n` at the end.
    }
    return 0;
}

Output:

1.Walkthrough of the for-loop
2.Walkthrough of the for-loop
3.Walkthrough of the for-loop
4.Walkthrough of the for-loop
5.Walkthrough of the for-loop
6.Walkthrough of the for-loop
7.Walkthrough of the for-loop

Notice, that this result will not be provided on any system, you are executing this C++ code. But it shall work for the most modern systems. Read below for more details.

Now, the same program, but with the difference, that \n is replaced by \r at the end of the print sequence.

Carriage return program:

#include <iostream>

int main(void)
{
    for(int i = 0; i < 7; i++)
    {
       std::cout << i + 1  <<".Walkthrough of the for-loop \r";   // Notice `\r` at the end.
    }
    return 0;
}

Output:

7.Walkthrough of the for-loop

Noticed where the difference is? The difference is simply as that, when you using the Carriage return escape sequence \r at the end of each print sequence, the next iteration of this sequence do not getting into the following text line - At the end of each print sequence, the cursor did not jumped to the *beginning of the next line.

Instead, the cursor jumped back to the beginning of the line, on which he has been at the end of, before using the \r character. - The result is that each following iteration of the print sequence is replacing the previous one.

*Note: A \n do not necessarily jump to the beginning of following text line. On some, in general more elder, operation systems the result of the \n newline character can be, that it jumps to anywhere in the following line, not just to the beginning. That is why, they rquire to use \r \n to get at the start of the next text line.

This experiment showed us the difference between newline and carriage return in the context of the output of the iteration of a print sequence.

When discussing about the input in a program, some terminals/consoles may convert a carriage return into a newline implicitly for better portability, compatibility and integrity.

But if you have the choice to choose one for another or want or need to explicitly use only a specific one, you should always operate with the one, which fits to its purpose and strictly distinguish between.

ValueError: Wrong number of items passed - Meaning and suggestions?

In general, the error ValueError: Wrong number of items passed 3, placement implies 1 suggests that you are attempting to put too many pigeons in too few pigeonholes. In this case, the value on the right of the equation

results['predictedY'] = predictedY

is trying to put 3 "things" into a container that allows only one. Because the left side is a dataframe column, and can accept multiple items on that (column) dimension, you should see that there are too many items on another dimension.

Here, it appears you are using sklearn for modeling, which is where gaussian_process.GaussianProcess() is coming from (I'm guessing, but correct me and revise the question if this is wrong).

Now, you generate predicted values for y here:

predictedY, MSE = gp.predict(testX, eval_MSE = True)

However, as we can see from the documentation for GaussianProcess, predict() returns two items. The first is y, which is array-like (emphasis mine). That means that it can have more than one dimension, or, to be concrete for thick headed people like me, it can have more than one column -- see that it can return (n_samples, n_targets) which, depending on testX, could be (1000, 3) (just to pick numbers). Thus, your predictedY might have 3 columns.

If so, when you try to put something with three "columns" into a single dataframe column, you are passing 3 items where only 1 would fit.

This table does not contain a unique column. Grid edit, checkbox, Edit, Copy and Delete features are not available

I have been faced with this problem.

The cause is your table doesn't have a primary key field.

And I have a simple solution: Set a field to primary key to specific field that suits your business logic.

For example, I have database thesis_db and field thesis_id, I will press button Primary (key icon) to set thesis_id to become primary key field:

How to test multiple variables against a value?

To test multiple variables with one single value: if 1 in {a,b,c}:

To test multiple values with one variable: if a in {1, 2, 3}:

./xx.py: line 1: import: command not found

Are you using a UNIX based OS such as Linux? If so, add a shebang line to the very top of your script:

#!/usr/bin/python

Underneath which you would have the rest of the code (xx.py in your case) that you already have. Then run that same command at the terminal:

$ python xx.py

This should then work fine, as it is now interpreting this as Python code. However when running from the terminal this does not matter as python tells how to interpret it here. What it does allow you to do is execute it outside the terminal, i.e. executing it from a file browser.

php codeigniter count rows

If you really want to count all rows. You can use this in model function:

$this->db->select('count(*)');
$query = $this->db->get('home');
$cnt = $query->row_array();
return $cnt['count(*)'];

It returns single value, that is row count

Unable to resolve dependency for ':app@debug/compileClasspath': Could not resolve

I was unable to find the root cause of the issue but got a workaround. I started by setting my the java home variable as such.

  • vi ~/.bash_profile (this is for macs only. bash profiles are different on linux)
  • type the letter i for insert and then set the JAVA_HOME variable as such
  • export JAVA_HOME=/Applications/Android\Studio.app/Contents/jre/jdk/Contents/Home/
  • quit the vi editor with esc then type :wq
  • Restart the computer
  • Voila! Your android studio projects should build without any qualms

LISTAGG function: "result of string concatenation is too long"

We were able to solve a similar issue here using Oracle LISTAGG. There was a point where what we were grouping on exceeded the 4K limit but this was easily solved by having the first dataset take the first 15 items to aggregate, each of which have a 256K limit.

More info: We have projects, which have change orders, which in turn have explanations. Why the database is set up to take change text in chunks of 256K limits is not known but its one of the design constraints. So the application that feeds change explanations into the table stops at 254K and inserts, then gets the next set of text and if > 254K generates another row, etc. So we have a project to a change order, a 1:1. Then we have these as 1:n for explanations. LISTAGG concatenates all these. We have RMRKS_SN values, 1 for each remark and/or for each 254K of characters.

The largest RMRKS_SN was found to be 31, so I did the first dataset pulling SN 0 to 15, the 2nd dataset 16 to 30 and the last dataset 31 to 45 -- hey, let's plan on someone adding a LOT of explanation to some change orders!

In the SQL report, the Tablix ties to the first dataset. To get the other data, here's the expression:

=First(Fields!NON_STD_TXT.Value, "DataSet_EXPLAN") & First(Fields!NON_STD_TXT.Value, "ds_EXPLAN_SN_16_TO_30") & First(Fields!NON_STD_TXT.Value, "ds_EXPLAN_SN_31_TO_45")

For us, we have to have DB Group create functions, etc. because of security constraints. So with a bit of creativity, we didn't have to do a User Aggregate or a UDF.

If your application has some sort of SN to aggregate by, this method should work. I don't know what the equivalent TSQL is -- we're fortunate to be dealing with Oracle for this report, for which LISTAGG is a Godsend.

The code is:

SELECT
LT.C_O_NBR AS LT_CO_NUM,
RT.C_O_NBR AS RT_CO_NUM,
LT.STD_LN_ITM_NBR, 
RT.NON_STD_LN_ITM_NBR,
RT.NON_STD_PRJ_NBR, 
LT.STD_PRJ_NBR, 
NVL(LT.PRPSL_LN_NBR, RT.PRPSL_LN_NBR) AS PRPSL_LN_NBR,
LT.STD_CO_EXPL_TXT AS STD_TXT,
LT.STD_CO_EXPLN_T, 
LT.STD_CO_EXPL_SN, 
RT.NON_STD_CO_EXPLN_T,
LISTAGG(RT.RMRKS_TXT_FLD, '') 
    WITHIN GROUP(ORDER BY RT.RMRKS_SN) AS NON_STD_TXT

FROM ...

    WHERE RT.RMRKS_SN BETWEEN 0 AND 15

GROUP BY 
    LT.C_O_NBR,
    RT.C_O_NBR,
    ...

And in the other 2 datasets just select the LISTAGG only for the subqueries in the FROM:

SELECT
LISTAGG(RT.RMRKS_TXT_FLD, '') 
    WITHIN GROUP(ORDER BY RT.RMRKS_SN) AS NON_STD_TXT

FROM ...

WHERE RT.RMRKS_SN BETWEEN 31 AND 45

...

... and so on.

Access Control Request Headers, is added to header in AJAX request with jQuery

From client side, I cant solve this problem. From nodejs express side, you can use cors module to handle it.

var express       = require('express');
var app           = express();
var bodyParser = require('body-parser');
var cors = require('cors');

var port = 3000; 
var ip = '127.0.0.1';

app.use('*/myapi', 
          cors(), // with this row OPTIONS has handled
          bodyParser.text({type:'text/*'}),
          function( req, res, next ){
    console.log( '\n.----------------' + req.method + '------------------------' );
        console.log( '| prot:'+req.protocol );
        console.log( '| host:'+req.get('host') );
        console.log( '| url:'+req.originalUrl );
        console.log( '| body:',req.body );
        //console.log( '| req:',req );
    console.log( '.----------------' + req.method + '------------------------' );
    next();
    });

app.listen(port, ip, function() {
    console.log('Listening to port:  ' + port );
});
 
console.log(('dir:'+__dirname ));
console.log('The server is up and running at http://'+ip+':'+port+'/');

Without cors() this OPTIONS has appears before POST.

.----------------OPTIONS------------------------
| prot:http
| host:localhost:3000
| url:/myapi
| body: {}

| prot:http

How to convert DateTime to/from specific string format (both ways, e.g. given Format is "yyyyMMdd")?

Parsing DateTime:

To parse a DateTime, use one of the following methods:

Alternatively, you may use try-parse pattern:

Read more about Custom Date and Time Format Strings.

Converting DateTime to a string:

To return a DateTime as a string in "yyyyMMdd" format, you may use ToString method.

  • Code snippet example: string date = DateTime.ToString("yyyyMMdd");
  • Note upper-cased M's refer to months and lower-cased m's to minutes.

Your case:

In your case, assuming you don't want to handle scenario when date is different format or misssing, it would be most convenient to use ParseExact:

string dateToParse = "20170506";
DateTime parsedDate = DateTime.ParseExact(dateToParse, 
                                          "yyyyMMdd",
                                          CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);

PHP class: Global variable as property in class

Try to avoid globals, instead you can use something like this

class myClass() {

}

Now you can call

$class = new myClass();
$class->setNumber('1234');

Fatal error: Call to a member function query() on null

First, you declared $db outside the function. If you want to use it inside the function, you should put this at the begining of your function code:

global $db;

And I guess, when you wrote:

if($result->num_rows){
        return (mysqli_result($query, 0) == 1) ? true : false;

what you really wanted was:

if ($result->num_rows==1) { return true; } else { return false; }

What is the use of adding a null key or value to a HashMap in Java?

One example of usage for null values is when using a HashMap as a cache for results of an expensive operation (such as a call to an external web service) which may return null.

Putting a null value in the map then allows you to distinguish between the case where the operation has not been performed for a given key (cache.containsKey(someKey) returns false), and where the operation has been performed but returned a null value (cache.containsKey(someKey) returns true, cache.get(someKey) returns null).

Without null values, you would have to either put some special value in the cache to indicate a null response, or simply not cache that response at all and perform the operation every time.

JavaScript code to stop form submission

The following works as of now (tested in Chrome and Firefox):

jQuery - Dynamically Create Button and Attach Event Handler

Quick fix. Create whole structure tr > td > button; then find button inside; attach event on it; end filtering of chain and at the and insert it into dom.

$("#myButton").click(function () {
    var test = $('<tr><td><button>Test</button></td></tr>').find('button').click(function () {
        alert('hi');
    }).end();

    $("#nodeAttributeHeader").attr('style', 'display: table-row;');
    $("#addNodeTable tr:last").before(test);
});

What does an exclamation mark before a cell reference mean?

If you use that forumla in the name manager you are creating a dynamic range which uses "this sheet" in place of a specific sheet.

As Jerry says, Sheet1!A1 refers to cell A1 on Sheet1. If you create a named range and omit the Sheet1 part you will reference cell A1 on the currently active sheet. (omitting the sheet reference and using it in a cell formula will error).

edit: my bad, I was using $A$1 which will lock it to the A1 cell as above, thanks pnuts :p

Smooth scrolling when clicking an anchor link

Tested and Verified Code 

<script>
jQuery(document).ready(function(){
// Add smooth scrolling to all links
jQuery("a").on('click', function(event) {

// Make sure this.hash has a value before overriding default behavior
if (this.hash !== "") {
  // Prevent default anchor click behavior
  event.preventDefault();

  // Store hash
  var hash = this.hash;

  // Using jQuery's animate() method to add smooth page scroll
  // The optional number (800) specifies the number of milliseconds it takes to scroll to the specified area
  jQuery('html, body').animate({
    scrollTop: jQuery(hash).offset().top
  }, 800, function(){

    // Add hash (#) to URL when done scrolling (default click behavior)
    window.location.hash = hash;
  });
} // End if
});
});
</script>

Can't open config file: /usr/local/ssl/openssl.cnf on Windows

Simply install Win64 OpenSSL v1.0.2a or Win32 OpenSSL v1.0.2a, you can download these from http://slproweb.com/products/Win32OpenSSL.html. Works out of the box, no configuration needed.

Long vs Integer, long vs int, what to use and when?

Long is the Object form of long, and Integer is the object form of int.

The long uses 64 bits. The int uses 32 bits, and so can only hold numbers up to ±2 billion (-231 to +231-1).

You should use long and int, except where you need to make use of methods inherited from Object, such as hashcode. Java.util.collections methods usually use the boxed (Object-wrapped) versions, because they need to work for any Object, and a primitive type, like int or long, is not an Object.

Another difference is that long and int are pass-by-value, whereas Long and Integer are pass-by-reference value, like all non-primitive Java types. So if it were possible to modify a Long or Integer (it's not, they're immutable without using JNI code), there would be another reason to use one over the other.

A final difference is that a Long or Integer could be null.

How do I get the directory of the PowerShell script I execute?

PowerShell 3 has the $PSScriptRoot automatic variable:

Contains the directory from which a script is being run.

In Windows PowerShell 2.0, this variable is valid only in script modules (.psm1). Beginning in Windows PowerShell 3.0, it is valid in all scripts.

Don't be fooled by the poor wording. PSScriptRoot is the directory of the current file.

In PowerShell 2, you can calculate the value of $PSScriptRoot yourself:

# PowerShell v2
$PSScriptRoot = Split-Path -Parent -Path $MyInvocation.MyCommand.Definition

Add Legend to Seaborn point plot

I would suggest not to use seaborn pointplot for plotting. This makes things unnecessarily complicated.
Instead use matplotlib plot_date. This allows to set labels to the plots and have them automatically put into a legend with ax.legend().

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import pandas as pd
import seaborn as sns
import numpy as np

date = pd.date_range("2017-03", freq="M", periods=15)
count = np.random.rand(15,4)
df1 = pd.DataFrame({"date":date, "count" : count[:,0]})
df2 = pd.DataFrame({"date":date, "count" : count[:,1]+0.7})
df3 = pd.DataFrame({"date":date, "count" : count[:,2]+2})

f, ax = plt.subplots(1, 1)
x_col='date'
y_col = 'count'

ax.plot_date(df1.date, df1["count"], color="blue", label="A", linestyle="-")
ax.plot_date(df2.date, df2["count"], color="red", label="B", linestyle="-")
ax.plot_date(df3.date, df3["count"], color="green", label="C", linestyle="-")

ax.legend()

plt.gcf().autofmt_xdate()
plt.show()

enter image description here

In case one is still interested in obtaining the legend for pointplots, here a way to go:

sns.pointplot(ax=ax,x=x_col,y=y_col,data=df1,color='blue')
sns.pointplot(ax=ax,x=x_col,y=y_col,data=df2,color='green')
sns.pointplot(ax=ax,x=x_col,y=y_col,data=df3,color='red')

ax.legend(handles=ax.lines[::len(df1)+1], labels=["A","B","C"])

ax.set_xticklabels([t.get_text().split("T")[0] for t in ax.get_xticklabels()])
plt.gcf().autofmt_xdate()

plt.show()

How to commit changes to a new branch

If I understand right, you've made a commit to changed_branch and you want to copy that commit to other_branch? Easy:

git checkout other_branch
git cherry-pick changed_branch

PHP display current server path

You can also use the following alternative realpath.

Create a file called path.php

Put the following code inside by specifying the name of the created file.

<?php 
    echo realpath('path.php'); 
?>

A php file that you can move to all your folders to always have the absolute path from where the executed file is located.

What is an example of the Liskov Substitution Principle?

LSP concerns invariants.

The classic example is given by the following pseudo-code declaration (implementations omitted):

class Rectangle {
    int getHeight()
    void setHeight(int value) {
        postcondition: width didn’t change
    }
    int getWidth()
    void setWidth(int value) {
        postcondition: height didn’t change
    }
}

class Square extends Rectangle { }

Now we have a problem although the interface matches. The reason is that we have violated invariants stemming from the mathematical definition of squares and rectangles. The way getters and setters work, a Rectangle should satisfy the following invariant:

void invariant(Rectangle r) {
    r.setHeight(200)
    r.setWidth(100)
    assert(r.getHeight() == 200 and r.getWidth() == 100)
}

However, this invariant (as well as the explicit postconditions) must be violated by a correct implementation of Square, therefore it is not a valid substitute of Rectangle.

git pull while not in a git directory

As some of my servers are on an old Ubuntu LTS versions, I can't easily upgrade git to the latest version (which supports the -C option as described in some answers).

This trick works well for me, especially because it does not have the side effect of some other answers that leave you in a different directory from where you started.

pushd /X/Y
git pull
popd

Or, doing it as a one-liner:

pushd /X/Y; git pull; popd

Both Linux and Windows have pushd and popd commands.

MySQL IF ELSEIF in select query

I found a bug in MySQL 5.1.72 when using the nested if() functions .... the value of column variables (e.g. qty_1) is blank inside the second if(), rendering it useless. Use the following construct instead:

case 
  when qty_1<='23' then price
  when '23'>qty_1 && qty_2<='23' then price_2
  when '23'>qty_2 && qty_3<='23' then price_3
  when '23'>qty_3 then price_4
  else 1
end

Multiple FROMs - what it means

The first answer is too complex, historic, and uninformative for my tastes.

It's actually rather simple. Docker provides for a functionality called multi-stage builds the basic idea here is to,

  • Free you from having to manually remove what you don't want, by forcing you to whitelist what you do want,
  • Free resources that would otherwise be taken up because of Docker's implementation.

Let's start with the first. Very often with something like Debian you'll see.

RUN apt-get update \ 
  && apt-get dist-upgrade \
  && apt-get install <whatever> \
  && apt-get clean

We can explain all of this in terms of the above. The above command is chained together so it represents a single change with no intermediate Images required. If it was written like this,

RUN apt-get update ;
RUN apt-get dist-upgrade;
RUN apt-get install <whatever>;
RUN apt-get clean;

It would result in 3 more temporary intermediate Images. Having it reduced to one image, there is one remaining problem: apt-get clean doesn't clean up artifacts used in the install. If a Debian maintainer includes in his install a script that modifies the system that modification will also be present in the final solution (see something like pepperflashplugin-nonfree for an example of that).

By using a multi-stage build you get all the benefits of a single changed action, but it will require you to manually whitelist and copy over files that were introduced in the temporary image using the COPY --from syntax documented here. Moreover, it's a great solution where there is no alternative (like an apt-get clean), and you would otherwise have lots of un-needed files in your final image.

"Invalid JSON primitive" in Ajax processing

Just a guess what does the variable json contain after

var json = Sys.Serialization.JavaScriptSerializer.serialize(obj);?

If it is a valid json object like {'foo':'foovalue', 'bar':'barvalue'} then jQuery might not send it as json data but instead serialize it to foor=foovalue&bar=barvalue thus you get the error "Invalid JSON primitive: foo"

Try instead setting the data as string

$.ajax({
    ...
    data: "{'foo':'foovalue', 'bar':'barvalue'}", //note the additional quotation marks
    ...
})

This way jQuery should leave the data alone and send the string as is to the server which should allow ASP.NET to parse the json server side.

What strategies and tools are useful for finding memory leaks in .NET?

I use Scitech's MemProfiler when I suspect a memory leak.

So far, I have found it to be very reliable and powerful. It has saved my bacon on at least one occasion.

The GC works very well in .NET IMO, but just like any other language or platform, if you write bad code, bad things happen.

How to search and replace text in a file?

Your problem stems from reading from and writing to the same file. Rather than opening fileToSearch for writing, open an actual temporary file and then after you're done and have closed tempFile, use os.rename to move the new file over fileToSearch.

How to change content on hover

This little and simple trick I just learnt may help someone trying to avoid :before or :after pseudo elements altogether (for whatever reason) in changing text on hover. You can add both texts in the HTML, but vary the CSS 'display' property based on hover. Assuming the second text 'Add' has a class named 'add-label'; here is a little modification:

span.add-label{
 display:none;
}
.item:hover span.align{
 display:none;
}
.item:hover span.add-label{
 display:block;
}

Getting a File's MD5 Checksum in Java

A simple approach with no third party libraries using Java 7

String path = "your complete file path";
MessageDigest md = MessageDigest.getInstance("MD5");
md.update(Files.readAllBytes(Paths.get(path)));
byte[] digest = md.digest();

If you need to print this byte array. Use as below

System.out.println(Arrays.toString(digest));

If you need hex string out of this digest. Use as below

String digestInHex = DatatypeConverter.printHexBinary(digest).toUpperCase();
System.out.println(digestInHex);

where DatatypeConverter is javax.xml.bind.DatatypeConverter

How do I get the key at a specific index from a Dictionary in Swift?

I was looking for something like a LinkedHashMap in Java. Neither Swift nor Objective-C have one if I'm not mistaken.

My initial thought was to wrap my dictionary in an Array. [[String: UIImage]] but then I realized that grabbing the key from the dictionary was wacky with Array(dict)[index].key so I went with Tuples. Now my array looks like [(String, UIImage)] so I can retrieve it by tuple.0. No more converting it to an Array. Just my 2 cents.

Execute the following on your terminal to get the latest stable version:

sudo gem install cocoapods

Add --pre to get the latest pre release:

sudo gem install cocoapods --pre

If you originally installed the cocoapods gem using sudo, you should use that command again.

Later on, when you're actively using CocoaPods by installing pods, you will be notified when new versions become available with a CocoaPods X.X.X is now available, please update message.

Static linking vs dynamic linking

I agree with the points dnmckee mentions, plus:

  • Statically linked applications might be easier to deploy, since there are fewer or no additional file dependencies (.dll / .so) that might cause problems when they're missing or installed in the wrong place.

How to use WebRequest to POST some data and read response?

Below is the code that read the data from the text file and sends it to the handler for processing and receive the response data from the handler and read it and store the data in the string builder class 

 //Get the data from text file that needs to be sent.
                FileStream fileStream = new FileStream(@"G:\Papertest.txt", FileMode.OpenOrCreate, FileAccess.ReadWrite);
                byte[] buffer = new byte[fileStream.Length];
                int count = fileStream.Read(buffer, 0, buffer.Length);

                //This is a handler would recieve the data and process it and sends back response.
                WebRequest myWebRequest = WebRequest.Create(@"http://localhost/Provider/ProcessorHandler.ashx");

                myWebRequest.ContentLength = buffer.Length;
                myWebRequest.ContentType = "application/octet-stream";
                myWebRequest.Method = "POST";
                // get the stream object that holds request stream.
                Stream stream = myWebRequest.GetRequestStream();
                       stream.Write(buffer, 0, buffer.Length);

Change visibility of ASP.NET label with JavaScript

If you need to manipulate it on the client side, you can't use the Visible property on the server side. Instead, set its CSS display style to "none". For example:

<asp:Label runat="server" id="Label1" style="display: none;" />

Then, you could make it visible on the client side with:

document.getElementById('Label1').style.display = 'inherit';

You could make it hidden again with:

document.getElementById('Label1').style.display = 'none';

Keep in mind that there may be issues with the ClientID being more complex than "Label1" in practice. You'll need to use the ClientID with getElementById, not the server side ID, if they differ.

Unable to establish SSL connection upon wget on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS

Although this is almost certainly not the OPs issue, you can also get Unable to establish SSL connection from wget if you're behind a proxy and don't have HTTP_PROXY and HTTPS_PROXY environment variables set correctly. Make sure to set HTTP_PROXY and HTTPS_PROXY to point to your proxy.

This is a common situation if you work for a large corporation.

What Are The Best Width Ranges for Media Queries

You can take a look here for a longer list of screen sizes and respective media queries.

Or go for Bootstrap media queries:

/* Large desktop */
@media (min-width: 1200px) { ... }

/* Portrait tablet to landscape and desktop */
@media (min-width: 768px) and (max-width: 979px) { ... }

/* Landscape phone to portrait tablet */
@media (max-width: 767px) { ... }

/* Landscape phones and down */
@media (max-width: 480px) { ... }

Additionally you might wanty to take a look at Foundation's media queries with the following default settings:

// Media Queries

$screenSmall: 768px !default;
$screenMedium: 1279px !default;
$screenXlarge: 1441px !default;

How to check if IsNumeric

Other answers have suggested using TryParse, which might fit your needs, but the safest way to provide the functionality of the IsNumeric function is to reference the VB library and use the IsNumeric function.

IsNumeric is more flexible than TryParse. For example, IsNumeric returns true for the string "$100", while the TryParse methods all return false.

To use IsNumeric in C#, add a reference to Microsoft.VisualBasic.dll. The function is a static method of the Microsoft.VisualBasic.Information class, so assuming you have using Microsoft.VisualBasic;, you can do this:

if (Information.IsNumeric(txtMyText.Text.Trim())) //...

Or use the XmlSerializer class.

obj = xs.Deserialize(new StringReader(yourXmlString));

ASP.NET strange compilation error

Updating Nuget packages fixed proglem for me.

return results from a function (javascript, nodejs)

 
function routeToRoom(userId, passw, cb) {
    var roomId = 0;
    var nStore = require('nstore/lib/nstore').extend(require('nstore/lib/nstore/query')());
    var users = nStore.new('data/users.db', function() {
        users.find({
            user: userId,
            pass: passw
        }, function(err, results) {
            if (err) {
                roomId = -1;
            } else {
                roomId = results.creationix.room;
            }
            cb(roomId);
        });
    });
}
routeToRoom("alex", "123", function(id) {
    console.log(id);    
});

You need to use callbacks. That's how asynchronous IO works. Btw sys.puts is deprecated

Maven error: Not authorized, ReasonPhrase:Unauthorized

The issue may happen while fetching dependencies from a remote repository. In my case, the repository did not need any authentication and it has been resolved by removing the servers section in the settings.xml file:

<servers>

      <id>SomeRepo</id>
      <username>SomeUN</username>

Converting between datetime and Pandas Timestamp objects

You can use the to_pydatetime method to be more explicit:

In [11]: ts = pd.Timestamp('2014-01-23 00:00:00', tz=None)

In [12]: ts.to_pydatetime()
Out[12]: datetime.datetime(2014, 1, 23, 0, 0)

It's also available on a DatetimeIndex:

In [13]: rng = pd.date_range('1/10/2011', periods=3, freq='D')

In [14]: rng.to_pydatetime()
Out[14]:
array([datetime.datetime(2011, 1, 10, 0, 0),
       datetime.datetime(2011, 1, 11, 0, 0),
       datetime.datetime(2011, 1, 12, 0, 0)], dtype=object)

How can I read SMS messages from the device programmatically in Android?

Use Content Resolver ("content://sms/inbox") to read SMS which are in inbox.

// public static final String INBOX = "content://sms/inbox";
// public static final String SENT = "content://sms/sent";
// public static final String DRAFT = "content://sms/draft";
Cursor cursor = getContentResolver().query(Uri.parse("content://sms/inbox"), null, null, null, null);

if (cursor.moveToFirst()) { // must check the result to prevent exception
    do {
       String msgData = "";
       for(int idx=0;idx<cursor.getColumnCount();idx++)
       {
           msgData += " " + cursor.getColumnName(idx) + ":" + cursor.getString(idx);
       }
       // use msgData
    } while (cursor.moveToNext());
} else {
   // empty box, no SMS
}

Please add READ_SMS permission.

I Hope it helps :)

How can I keep my branch up to date with master with git?

You can use the cherry-pick to get the particular bug fix commit(s)

jquery/javascript convert date string to date

If you're running with jQuery you can use the datepicker UI library's parseDate function to convert your string to a date:

var d = $.datepicker.parseDate("DD, MM dd, yy",  "Sunday, February 28, 2010");

and then follow it up with the formatDate method to get it to the string format you want

var datestrInNewFormat = $.datepicker.formatDate( "mm/dd/yy", d);

If you're not running with jQuery of course its probably not the best plan given you'd need jQuery core as well as the datepicker UI module... best to go with the suggestion from Segfault above to use date.js.

How to specify the port an ASP.NET Core application is hosted on?

Alternative solution is to use a hosting.json in the root of the project. 

{
  "urls": "http://localhost:60000"
}

And then in Program.cs

public static void Main(string[] args)
{
    var config = new ConfigurationBuilder()
        .SetBasePath(Directory.GetCurrentDirectory())
        .AddJsonFile("hosting.json", true)
        .Build();

    var host = new WebHostBuilder()
        .UseKestrel(options => options.AddServerHeader = false)
        .UseConfiguration(config)
        .UseContentRoot(Directory.GetCurrentDirectory())
        .UseIISIntegration()
        .UseStartup<Startup>()
        .Build();

    host.Run();
}

Partly JSON unmarshal into a map in Go

Here is an elegant way to do similar thing. But why do partly JSON unmarshal? That doesn't make sense.

  1. Create your structs for the Chat.
  2. Decode json to the Struct.
  3. Now you can access everything in Struct/Object easily.

Look below at the working code. Copy and paste it.

import (
   "bytes"
   "encoding/json" // Encoding and Decoding Package
   "fmt"
 )

var messeging = `{
"say":"Hello",
"sendMsg":{
    "user":"ANisus",
    "msg":"Trying to send a message"
   }
}`

type SendMsg struct {
   User string `json:"user"`
   Msg  string `json:"msg"`
}

 type Chat struct {
   Say     string   `json:"say"`
   SendMsg *SendMsg `json:"sendMsg"`
}

func main() {
  /** Clean way to solve Json Decoding in Go */
  /** Excellent solution */

   var chat Chat
   r := bytes.NewReader([]byte(messeging))
   chatErr := json.NewDecoder(r).Decode(&chat)
   errHandler(chatErr)
   fmt.Println(chat.Say)
   fmt.Println(chat.SendMsg.User)
   fmt.Println(chat.SendMsg.Msg)

}

 func errHandler(err error) {
   if err != nil {
     fmt.Println(err)
     return
   }
 }

Angular-Material DateTime Picker Component?

I recommend you to checkout @angular-material-components/datetime-picker. This is a DatetimePicker like @angular/material Datepicker by adding support for choosing time.

Error with multiple definitions of function

You have #include "fun.cpp" in mainfile.cpp so compiling with:

g++ -o hw1 mainfile.cpp

will work, however if you compile by linking these together like

g++ -g -std=c++11 -Wall -pedantic   -c -o fun.o fun.cpp
g++ -g -std=c++11 -Wall -pedantic   -c -o mainfile.o mainfile.cpp

As they mention above, adding #include "fun.hpp" will need to be done or it won't work. However, your case with the funct() function is slightly different than my problem.

I had this issue when doing a HW assignment and the autograder compiled by the lower bash recipe, yet locally it worked using the upper bash.

enable/disable zoom in Android WebView

The solution you posted seems to work in stopping the zoom controls from appearing when the user drags, however there are situations where a user will pinch zoom and the zoom controls will appear. I've noticed that there are 2 ways that the webview will accept pinch zooming, and only one of them causes the zoom controls to appear despite your code:

User Pinch Zooms and controls appear:

ACTION_DOWN
getSettings().setBuiltInZoomControls(false); getSettings().setSupportZoom(false);
ACTION_POINTER_2_DOWN
getSettings().setBuiltInZoomControls(true); getSettings().setSupportZoom(true);
ACTION_MOVE (Repeat several times, as the user moves their fingers)
ACTION_POINTER_2_UP
ACTION_UP

User Pinch Zoom and Controls don't appear:

ACTION_DOWN
getSettings().setBuiltInZoomControls(false); getSettings().setSupportZoom(false);
ACTION_POINTER_2_DOWN
getSettings().setBuiltInZoomControls(true); getSettings().setSupportZoom(true);
ACTION_MOVE (Repeat several times, as the user moves their fingers)
ACTION_POINTER_1_UP
ACTION_POINTER_UP
ACTION_UP

Is it possible to overwrite a function in PHP

You could use the PECL extension

but that is bad practise in my opinion. You are using functions, but check out the Decorator design pattern. Can borrow the basic idea from it.

Force download a pdf link using javascript/ajax/jquery

With JavaScript it is very difficult if not impossible(?). I would suggest using some sort of code-behind language such as PHP, C#, or Java. If you were to use PHP, you could, in the page your button posts to, do something like this:

<?php
header('Content-type: application/pdf');
header('Content-disposition: attachment; filename=filename.pdf');
readfile("http://manuals.info.apple.com/en/iphone_user_guide.pdf");
?>

This also seems to work for JS (from http://www.phpbuilder.com/board/showthread.php?t=10149735):

<body>
<script>
function downloadme(x){
myTempWindow = window.open(x,'','left=10000,screenX=10000');
myTempWindow.document.execCommand('SaveAs','null','download.pdf');
myTempWindow.close();
}
</script>

How do CORS and Access-Control-Allow-Headers work?

Yes, you need to have the header Access-Control-Allow-Origin: http://domain.com:3000 or Access-Control-Allow-Origin: * on both the OPTIONS response and the POST response. You should include the header Access-Control-Allow-Credentials: true on the POST response as well.

Your OPTIONS response should also include the header Access-Control-Allow-Headers: origin, content-type, accept to match the requested header.

How to copy selected files from Android with adb pull

Pull multiple files using regex:

Create pullFiles.sh:

#!/bin/bash
HOST_DIR=<pull-to>
DEVICE_DIR=/sdcard/<pull-from>
EXTENSION=".jpg"

for file in $(adb shell ls $DEVICE_DIR | grep $EXTENSION'$')
do
    file=$(echo -e $file | tr -d "\r\n"); # EOL fix
    adb pull $DEVICE_DIR/$file $HOST_DIR/$file;
done

Run it:

Make it executable: chmod +x pullFiles.sh

Run it: ./pullFiles.sh

Notes:

  • as is, won't work when filenames have spaces
  • includes a fix for end-of-line (EOL) on Android, which is a "\r\n"

Importing a csv into mysql via command line

Can I set variables to undefined or pass undefined as an argument?

The best way to check for a null values is 

if ( testVar !== null )
{
    // do action here
}

and for undefined

if ( testVar !== undefined )
{
    // do action here
}

You can assign a avariable with undefined.

testVar = undefined;
//typeof(testVar) will be equal to undefined.

How to find out if an installed Eclipse is 32 or 64 bit version?

Auto reloading python Flask app upon code changes

In test/development environments

The werkzeug debugger already has an 'auto reload' function available that can be enabled by doing one of the following:

app.run(debug=True)

or

app.debug = True

You can also use a separate configuration file to manage all your setup if you need be. For example I use 'settings.py' with a 'DEBUG = True' option. Importing this file is easy too;

app.config.from_object('application.settings')

However this is not suitable for a production environment.

Production environment

Personally I chose Nginx + uWSGI over Apache + mod_wsgi for a few performance reasons but also the configuration options. The touch-reload option allows you to specify a file/folder that will cause the uWSGI application to reload your newly deployed flask app.

For example, your update script pulls your newest changes down and touches 'reload_me.txt' file. Your uWSGI ini script (which is kept up by Supervisord - obviously) has this line in it somewhere:

touch-reload = '/opt/virtual_environments/application/reload_me.txt'

I hope this helps!

Does the join order matter in SQL?

If you try joining C on a field from B before joining B, i.e.:

SELECT A.x, 
       A.y, 
       A.z 
FROM A 
   INNER JOIN C
       on B.x = C.x
   INNER JOIN B
       on A.x = B.x

your query will fail, so in this case the order matters.

Windows XP or later Windows: How can I run a batch file in the background with no window displayed?

For self-hiding you can use getCmdPID.bat and windowMode.bat:

@echo off

echo --- self hiding bat ----
pause
call getCmdPid.bat
set PID=%errorlevel%
call windowMode.bat -pid %PID% -mode hidden

Here's my collection of ways to achieve that - and even more - where it was possible I've tried to return also the PID of the started process (all linked scripts can be downloaded and saved with whatever name you find convenient):

  1. The IEXPRESS solution can be used even on old win 95/98 machines. Iexpress is a really ancient tool that is still packaged with Windows - as arguments accepts only the command and its arguments.

Example usage:

call IEXPhidden.bat "cmd /c myBat.bat"  "argument"
  1. SCHTASKS - Again accepts only two arguments - the command and the arguments.Also checks if it's started with elevated permissions and if possible gets the PID of the process with WEVTUTIL (available from Vista and above so the newer version of windows will receive the PID) command.

Example usage:

call SCHPhidden.bat "cmd /c myBat.bat"  "argument"
  1. 'WScript.Shell' - the script is full wrapper of 'WScript.Shell' and every possible option can be set through the command line options.It's a jscript/batch hybrid and can be called as a bat.

Example usage (for more info print the help with '-h'):

call ShellRunJS.bat "notepad.exe" -style 0 -wait no
  1. 'Win32_ProcessStartup' - again full wrapper and all options are accessible through the command line arguments.This time it's WSF/batch hybrid with some Jscript and some VBScript pieces of code - but it returns the PID of the started process.If process is not hidden some options like X/Y coordinates can be used (not applicable for every executable - but for example cmd.exe accepts coordinates).

Example usage (for more info print the help with '-h'):

call win32process.bat "notepad" -arguments "/A openFile.txt"  -showWindows 0 -title "notepad"
  1. The .NET solution . Most of the options of ProcessStartInfo options are used (but at the end I was too tired to include everything):

Example usage (for more info print the help with '-h'):

call ProcessStartJS.bat "notepad" -arguments "/A openFile.txt"  -style Hidden -directory "." -title "notepad" -priority Normal

Local and global temporary tables in SQL Server

Local temporary tables: if you create local temporary tables and then open another connection and try the query , you will get the following error.

the temporary tables are only accessible within the session that created them.

Global temporary tables: Sometimes, you may want to create a temporary table that is accessible other connections. In this case, you can use global temporary tables.

Global temporary tables are only destroyed when all the sessions referring to it are closed.

Protect .NET code from reverse engineering?

Yes. It is true. .NET code is extremely easy to reverse engineer if the code is not obfuscated.

Obfuscation will add a layer of annoyance to people trying to reverse engineer your software. Depending on which version you get, you'll get different levels of protection.

Visual Studio includes a version of Dotfuscator. Since it's a bundled version, you're definitely not getting the strongest obfuscation possible. If you look at their feature lists, you'll see exactly what you're missing (and exactly what the application will do to make your code more secure).

There are a couple of other free or open source .NET obfuscators out there (but I can't comment on the quality or the various methods they use):

In the end, nothing is perfect. If somebody really wants to see how your software works, they will.

Excel - match data from one range to another and get the value from the cell to the right of the matched data

Thanks a bundle, guys. You are great.

I used Chuff's answer and modified it a little to do what I wanted.

I have 2 worksheets in the same workbook.

On 1st worksheet I have a list of SMS in 3 columns: phone number, date & time, message

Then I inserted a new blank column next to the phone number

On worksheet 2 I have two columns: phone number, name of person

Used the formula to check the cell on the left, and match against the range in worksheet 2, pick the name corresponding to the number and input it into the blank cell in worksheet 1.

Then just copy the formula down the whole column until last sms It worked beautifully. 

=VLOOKUP(A3,Sheet2!$A$1:$B$31,2,0)

how concatenate two variables in batch script?

The way is correct, but can be improved a bit with the extended set-syntax. 

set "var=xyz"

Sets the var to the content until the last quotation mark, this ensures that no "hidden" spaces are appended.

Your code would look like

set "var1=A"
set "var2=B"
set "AB=hi"
set "newvar=%var1%%var2%"
echo %newvar% is the concat of var1 and var2
echo !%newvar%! is the indirect content of newvar

"Strict Standards: Only variables should be passed by reference" error

Instead of parsing it manually it's better to use pathinfo function:

$path_parts = pathinfo($value);
$extension = strtolower($path_parts['extension']);
$fileName = $path_parts['filename'];

Explanation of JSONB introduced by PostgreSQL

As far as I can tell,

  • hstore as it currently exists (in Postgresql 9.3) does not allow for nesting other objects and arrays as the values of its key/value pairs. however a future hstore patch will allow for nesting. this patch will not be in the 9.4 release and may not be included any time soon.

  • json as it currently exists does allow for nesting, but is text-based, and does not allow for indexing, thus it is "slow"

  • jsonb that will be released with 9.4 will have the current nesting capabilities of json, as well as the GIN/GIST indexing of hstore, so it will be fast

People working on postgresql 9.4 seem to be saying that the new, fast jsonb type will appeal to people who would have chosen to use a noSQL data store like MongoDB, but can now combine a relational database with query-able unstructured data under one roof

http://www.databasesoup.com/2014/02/why-hstore2jsonb-is-most-important.html

Benchmarks of postgresql 9.4 jsonb seem to be on par with or in some cases faster than MongoDB

Converting a char to ASCII?

A char is an integral type. When you write

char ch = 'A';

you're setting the value of ch to whatever number your compiler uses to represent the character 'A'. That's usually the ASCII code for 'A' these days, but that's not required. You're almost certainly using a system that uses ASCII.

Like any numeric type, you can initialize it with an ordinary number:

char ch = 13;

If you want do do arithmetic on a char value, just do it: ch = ch + 1; etc.

However, in order to display the value you have to get around the assumption in the iostreams library that you want to display char values as characters rather than numbers. There are a couple of ways to do that.

std::cout << +ch << '\n';
std::cout << int(ch) << '\n'

C linked list inserting node at the end

This code will work. The answer from samplebias is almost correct, but you need a third change:

int addNodeBottom(int val, node *head){

    //create new node
    node *newNode = (node*)malloc(sizeof(node));

    if(newNode == NULL){
        fprintf(stderr, "Unable to allocate memory for new node\n");
        exit(-1);
    }

    newNode->value = val;
    newNode->next = NULL;  // Change 1

    //check for first insertion
    if(head->next == NULL){
        head->next = newNode;
        printf("added at beginning\n");
    }

    else
    {
        //else loop through the list and find the last
        //node, insert next to it
        node *current = head;
        while (true) { // Change 2
            if(current->next == NULL)
            {
                current->next = newNode;
                printf("added later\n");
                break; // Change 3
            }
            current = current->next;
        };
    }
    return 0;
}

Change 1: newNode->next must be set to NULL so we don't insert invalid pointers at the end of the list.

Change 2/3: The loop is changed to an endless loop that will be jumped out with break; when we found the last element. Note how while(current->next != NULL) contradicted if(current->next == NULL) before.

EDIT: Regarding the while loop, this way it is much better:

  node *current = head;
  while (current->next != NULL) {
    current = current->next;
  }
  current->next = newNode;
  printf("added later\n");

POST Multipart Form Data using Retrofit 2.0 including image

Don't use multiple parameters in the function name just go with simple few args convention that will increase the readability of codes, for this you can do like -

// MultipartBody.Part.createFormData("partName", data)
Call<SomReponse> methodName(@Part MultiPartBody.Part part);
// RequestBody.create(MediaType.get("text/plain"), data)
Call<SomReponse> methodName(@Part(value = "partName") RequestBody part); 
/* for single use or you can use by Part name with Request body */

// add multiple list of part as abstraction |ease of readability|
Call<SomReponse> methodName(@Part List<MultiPartBody.Part> parts); 
Call<SomReponse> methodName(@PartMap Map<String, RequestBody> parts);
// this way you will save the abstraction of multiple parts.

There can be multiple exceptions that you may encounter while using Retrofit, all of the exceptions documented as code, have a walkthrough to retrofit2/RequestFactory.java. you can able to two functions parseParameterAnnotation and parseMethodAnnotation where you can able to exception thrown, please go through this, it will save your much of time than googling/stackoverflow

For those that are using a .conf file.

<VirtualHost *:443>
    ServerName domain.com
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteCond %{HTTPS} on
    RewriteRule (.*) http://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI}

    SSLEngine on
    SSLCertificateFile /etc/apache2/ssl/domain.crt
    SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/apache2/ssl/domain.key
    SSLCACertificateFile /etc/apache2/ssl/domain.crt

How to predict input image using trained model in Keras?

That's because you're getting the numeric value associated with the class. For example if you have two classes cats and dogs, Keras will associate them numeric values 0 and 1. To get the mapping between your classes and their associated numeric value, you can use

>>> classes = train_generator.class_indices    
>>> print(classes)
    {'cats': 0, 'dogs': 1}

Now you know the mapping between your classes and indices. So now what you can do is

if classes[0][0] == 1: prediction = 'dog' else: prediction = 'cat'

"NOT IN" clause in LINQ to Entities

If you are using an in-memory collection as your filter, it's probably best to use the negation of Contains(). Note that this can fail if the list is too long, in which case you will need to choose another strategy (see below for using a strategy for a fully DB-oriented query).

   var exceptionList = new List<string> { "exception1", "exception2" };

   var query = myEntities.MyEntity
                         .Select(e => e.Name)
                         .Where(e => !exceptionList.Contains(e.Name));

If you're excluding based on another database query using Except might be a better choice. (Here is a link to the supported Set extensions in LINQ to Entities)

   var exceptionList = myEntities.MyOtherEntity
                                 .Select(e => e.Name);

   var query = myEntities.MyEntity
                         .Select(e => e.Name)
                         .Except(exceptionList);

This assumes a complex entity in which you are excluding certain ones depending some property of another table and want the names of the entities that are not excluded. If you wanted the entire entity, then you'd need to construct the exceptions as instances of the entity class such that they would satisfy the default equality operator (see docs).

What is the difference between smoke testing and sanity testing?

Smoke testing

Suppose a new build of an app is ready from the development phase.

We check if we are able to open the app without a crash. We login to the app. We check if the user is redirected to the proper URL and that the environment is stable. If the main aim of the app is to provide a "purchase" functionality to the user, check if the user's ID is redirected to the buying page.

After the smoke testing we confirm the build is in a testable form and is ready to go through sanity testing.

Sanity testing

In this phase, we check the basic functionalities, like

  1. login with valid credentials,
  2. login with invalid credentials,
  3. user's info are properly displayed after logging in,
  4. making a purchase order with a certain user's id,
  5. the "thank you" page is displayed after the purchase

How to preserve insertion order in HashMap?

LinkedHashMap is precisely what you're looking for.

It is exactly like HashMap, except that when you iterate over it, it presents the items in the insertion order.

How to make Regular expression into non-greedy?

You are right that greediness is an issue:

--A--Z--A--Z--
  ^^^^^^^^^^
     A.*Z

If you want to match both A--Z, you'd have to use A.*?Z (the ? makes the * "reluctant", or lazy).

There are sometimes better ways to do this, though, e.g.

A[^Z]*+Z

This uses negated character class and possessive quantifier, to reduce backtracking, and is likely to be more efficient.

In your case, the regex would be:

/(\[[^\]]++\])/

Unfortunately Javascript regex doesn't support possessive quantifier, so you'd just have to do with:

/(\[[^\]]+\])/

See also

Quick summary

*   Zero or more, greedy
*?  Zero or more, reluctant
*+  Zero or more, possessive

+   One or more, greedy
+?  One or more, reluctant
++  One or more, possessive

?   Zero or one, greedy
??  Zero or one, reluctant
?+  Zero or one, possessive

Note that the reluctant and possessive quantifiers are also applicable to the finite repetition {n,m} constructs.

Examples in Java:

System.out.println("aAoZbAoZc".replaceAll("A.*Z", "!"));  // prints "a!c"
System.out.println("aAoZbAoZc".replaceAll("A.*?Z", "!")); // prints "a!b!c"

System.out.println("xxxxxx".replaceAll("x{3,5}", "Y"));  // prints "Yx"
System.out.println("xxxxxx".replaceAll("x{3,5}?", "Y")); // prints "YY"

Convert a String to int?

You can use the FromStr trait's from_str method, which is implemented for i32:

let my_num = i32::from_str("9").unwrap_or(0);

How can I wait for set of asynchronous callback functions?

You haven't been very specific with your code, so I'll make up a scenario. Let's say you have 10 ajax calls and you want to accumulate the results from those 10 ajax calls and then when they have all completed you want to do something. You can do it like this by accumulating the data in an array and keeping track of when the last one has finished:

Manual Counter

var ajaxCallsRemaining = 10;
var returnedData = [];

for (var i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
    doAjax(whatever, function(response) {
        // success handler from the ajax call

        // save response
        returnedData.push(response);

        // see if we're done with the last ajax call
        --ajaxCallsRemaining;
        if (ajaxCallsRemaining <= 0) {
            // all data is here now
            // look through the returnedData and do whatever processing 
            // you want on it right here
        }
    });
}

Note: error handling is important here (not shown because it's specific to how you're making your ajax calls). You will want to think about how you're going to handle the case when one ajax call never completes, either with an error or gets stuck for a long time or times out after a long time.

jQuery Promises

Adding to my answer in 2014. These days, promises are often used to solve this type of problem since jQuery's $.ajax() already returns a promise and $.when() will let you know when a group of promises are all resolved and will collect the return results for you:

var promises = [];
for (var i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
    promises.push($.ajax(...));
}
$.when.apply($, promises).then(function() {
    // returned data is in arguments[0][0], arguments[1][0], ... arguments[9][0]
    // you can process it here
}, function() {
    // error occurred
});

ES6 Standard Promises

As specified in kba's answer: if you have an environment with native promises built-in (modern browser or node.js or using babeljs transpile or using a promise polyfill), then you can use ES6-specified promises. See this table for browser support. Promises are supported in pretty much all current browsers, except IE.

If doAjax() returns a promise, then you can do this:

var promises = [];
for (var i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
    promises.push(doAjax(...));
}
Promise.all(promises).then(function() {
    // returned data is in arguments[0], arguments[1], ... arguments[n]
    // you can process it here
}, function(err) {
    // error occurred
});

If you need to make a non-promise async operation into one that returns a promise, you can "promisify" it like this:

function doAjax(...) {
    return new Promise(function(resolve, reject) {
        someAsyncOperation(..., function(err, result) {
            if (err) return reject(err);
            resolve(result);
        });
    });
}

And, then use the pattern above:

var promises = [];
for (var i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
    promises.push(doAjax(...));
}
Promise.all(promises).then(function() {
    // returned data is in arguments[0], arguments[1], ... arguments[n]
    // you can process it here
}, function(err) {
    // error occurred
});

Bluebird Promises

If you use a more feature rich library such as the Bluebird promise library, then it has some additional functions built in to make this easier:

 var doAjax = Promise.promisify(someAsync);
 var someData = [...]
 Promise.map(someData, doAjax).then(function(results) {
     // all ajax results here
 }, function(err) {
     // some error here
 });

Set UITableView content inset permanently

In Swift:

override func viewDidLayoutSubviews() {
      super.viewDidLayoutSubviews()
      self.tableView.contentInset = UIEdgeInsets(top: 108, left: 0, bottom: 0, right: 0)
}

How do AX, AH, AL map onto EAX?

The below snippet examines EAX using GDB.

    (gdb) info register eax
    eax            0xaa55   43605
    (gdb) info register ax
    ax             0xaa55   -21931
    (gdb) info register ah
    ah             0xaa -86
    (gdb) info register al
    al             0x55 85
  1. EAX - Full 32 bit value
  2. AX - lower 16 bit value
  3. AH - Bits from 8 to 15
  4. AL - lower 8 bits of EAX/AX

Close dialog on click (anywhere)

A bit late but this is a solution that worked for me. Perfect if your modal is inside the overlay tag. So, the modal will close when you click anywhere outside the modal content.

HTML

<div class="modal">  
  <div class="overlay">
    <div class="modal-content">
      <p>HELLO WORLD!</p>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

JS

$(document).on("click", function(event) {
  if ($(event.target).has(".modal-content").length) {
    $(".modal").hide();
  }
});

Here is a working example

Cannot open database "test" requested by the login. The login failed. Login failed for user 'xyz\ASPNET'

NB: If using a windows service to host the webservice.

You have to insure that your webservice is using the right Log on account to connect to SQL Server.

  • Open services(I assume the windows service has been install)
  • Right click on the service and goto properties.
  • Click on "Log On" Tab
  • Click on "This account" radio button
  • Click "Browse"
  • Enter Pc user name in Text Field and click "Check Name" Button to the right.
  • Click on text in Text Field, press "OK" button
  • enter login password and Apply

Not able to access adb in OS X through Terminal, "command not found"

In addition to slhck, this is what worked for me (mac).

To check where your sdk is located.

  1. Open Android studio and go to:

File -> Project Structure -> Sdk location

  1. Copy the path.

  2. Create the hidden .bash_profile in your home.

  3. (open it with vim, or open -e) with the following:
export PATH=/Users/<Your session name>/Library/Android/sdk/platform-tools:/Users/<Your session name>/Library/Android/sdk/tools:$PATH
  1. Then simply use this in your terminal: . ~/.bash_profile
