React : difference between <Route exact path="/" /> and <Route path="/" />

In short, if you have multiple routes defined for your app's routing, enclosed with Switch component like this;

<Switch>

  <Route exact path="/" component={Home} />
  <Route path="/detail" component={Detail} />

  <Route exact path="/functions" component={Functions} />
  <Route path="/functions/:functionName" component={FunctionDetails} />

</Switch>

Then you have to put exact keyword to the Route which it's path is also included by another Route's path. For example home path / is included in all paths so it needs to have exact keyword to differentiate it from other paths which start with /. The reason is also similar to /functions path. If you want to use another route path like /functions-detail or /functions/open-door which includes /functions in it then you need to use exact for the /functions route.

Failed to find 'ANDROID_HOME' environment variable

I experienced same issue on MAC catalina 10.15 what you add in .bash_profile is not recognised when you echo it on terminal, it is stored temporarily. It is recommended to use .zprofile for permanent and add all environment variables in it.After trying for 5hours i found out this solution. Hope it will be useful for someone.

 vi .zprofile
 insert(press i)

export ANDROID_HOME=/Users/mypc/Library/Android/sdk
export PATH=$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools:${PATH}

after adding environment variables press esc
then enter :wq!
try echo $ANDROID_HOME in new tab(it will not be empty) path will be 
printed

Deleting row from datatable in C#

I think the reason the OPs code does not work is because once you call Remove you are changing the Length of drr. When you call Delete you are not actually deleting the row until AcceptChanges is called. This is why if you want to use Remove you need a separate loop.

Depending on the situation or preference...

string colName = "colName";
string comparisonValue = (whatever it is).ToString();
string strFilter = (dtbl.Columns[colName].DataType == typeof(string)) ? "[" + colName + "]='" + comparisonValue + "'" : "[" + colName + "]=" + comparisonValue;
string strSort = "";

DataRow[] drows = dtbl.Select(strFilter, strSort, DataViewRowState.CurrentRows);

Above used for next two examples

foreach(DataRow drow in drows)
{
   drow.Delete();//Mark a row for deletion.
}
dtbl.AcceptChanges();

OR

foreach(DataRow drow in drows)
{
   dtbl.Rows[dtbl.Rows.IndexOf(drow)].Delete();//Mark a row for deletion.
}
dtbl.AcceptChanges();

OR

List<DataRow> listRowsToDelete = new List<DataRow>();

foreach(DataRow drow in dtbl.Rows)
{
   if(condition to delete)
   {
      listRowsToDelete.Add(drow);
   }
}

foreach(DataRow drowToDelete in listRowsToDelete)
{
   dtbl.Rows.Remove(drowToDelete);// Calling Remove is the same as calling Delete and then calling AcceptChanges
}

Note that if you call Delete() then you should call AcceptChanges() but if you call Remove() then AcceptChanges() is not necessary.

Also, here is a good link on row filter syntax.

How to find the port for MS SQL Server 2008?

Click on Start button in Windows.

Go to All Programs -> Microsoft SQL Server 2008 -> Configuration Tools -> SQL Server Configuration Manager

Click on SQL Native Client 10.0 Configuration -> Client Protocols -> TCP/IP double click ( Right click select Properties ) on TCP/IP.

You will find Default Port 1433.

Depending on connection, the port number may vary.

How to quickly clear a JavaScript Object?

The short answer to your question, I think, is no (you can just create a new object).

  1. In this example, I believe setting the length to 0 still leaves all of the elements for garbage collection.

  2. You could add this to Object.prototype if it's something you'd frequently use. Yes it's linear in complexity, but anything that doesn't do garbage collection later will be.

  3. This is the best solution. I know it's not related to your question - but for how long do we need to continue supporting IE6? There are many campaigns to discontinue the usage of it.

Feel free to correct me if there's anything incorrect above.

Where is HttpContent.ReadAsAsync?

If you are already using Newtonsoft.Json and don't want to install Microsoft.AspNet.WebApi.Client:

 var myInstance = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<MyClass>(
   await response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync());

Integrity constraint violation: 1452 Cannot add or update a child row:

Also make sure that the foreign key you add is the same type of the original column, if the column you're reference is not the same type it will fail too.

Rename file with Git

Do a git status to find out if your file is actually in your index or the commit.

It is easy as a beginner to misunderstand the index/staging area.

I view it as a 'progress pinboard'. I therefore have to add the file to the pinboard before I can commit it (i.e. a copy of the complete pinboard), I have to update the pinboard when required, and I also have to deliberately remove files from it when I've finished with them - simply creating, editing or deleting a file doesn't affect the pinboard. It's like 'storyboarding'.

Edit: As others noted, You should do the edits locally and then push the updated repo, rather than attempt to edit directly on github.

Alphabet range in Python

This is the easiest way I can figure out:

#!/usr/bin/python3
for i in range(97, 123):
    print("{:c}".format(i), end='')

So, 97 to 122 are the ASCII number equivalent to 'a' to and 'z'. Notice the lowercase and the need to put 123, since it will not be included).

In print function make sure to set the {:c} (character) format, and, in this case, we want it to print it all together not even letting a new line at the end, so end=''would do the job.

The result is this: abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz

List Git commits not pushed to the origin yet

git log origin/master..master

or, more generally:

git log <since>..<until>

You can use this with grep to check for a specific, known commit:

git log <since>..<until> | grep <commit-hash>

Or you can also use git-rev-list to search for a specific commit:

git rev-list origin/master | grep <commit-hash>

One or more types required to compile a dynamic expression cannot be found. Are you missing references to Microsoft.CSharp.dll and System.Core.dll?

How to detect scroll direction

Here is a sample showing an easy way to do it. The script is:

$(function() {
  var _t = $("#container").scrollTop();
  $("#container").scroll(function() {
    var _n = $("#container").scrollTop();
    if (_n > _t) {
      $("#target").text("Down");
    } else {
      $("#target").text("Up");
    }
    _t = _n;
  });
});

The #container is your div id. The #target is just to see it working. Change to what you want when up or when down.

EDIT

The OP didn't say before, but since he's using a div with overflow: hidden, scrolling doesn't occur, then the script to detect the scroll is the least of it. Well, how to detect something that does not happen?!

So, the OP himself posted the link with what he wants, so why not use that library? http://cdn.jquerytools.org/1.2.5/full/jquery.tools.min.js.

The call is just:

$(function() {
    $(".scrollable").scrollable({ vertical: true, mousewheel: true });
});

How to query between two dates using Laravel and Eloquent?

If you need to have in when a datetime field should be like this.

HTML table with horizontal scrolling (first column fixed)

Use jQuery DataTables plug-in, it supports fixed header and columns. This example adds fixed column support to the html table "example":

http://datatables.net/extensions/fixedcolumns/

For two fixed columns:

http://www.datatables.net/release-datatables/extensions/FixedColumns/examples/two_columns.html

[] and {} vs list() and dict(), which is better?

list() and [] work differently:

>>> def a(p):
...     print(id(p))
... 
>>> for r in range(3):
...     a([])
... 
139969725291904
139969725291904
139969725291904
>>> for r in range(3):
...     a(list())
... 
139969725367296
139969725367552
139969725367616

list() always create new object in heap, but [] can reuse memory cell in many reason.

How to write to a JSON file in the correct format

With formatting

require 'json'
tempHash = {
    "key_a" => "val_a",
    "key_b" => "val_b"
}
File.open("public/temp.json","w") do |f|
  f.write(JSON.pretty_generate(tempHash))
end

Output

{
    "key_a":"val_a",
    "key_b":"val_b"
}

Getting Image from URL (Java)

Directly calling a URL to get an image may concern with major security issues. You need to ensure that you have sufficient rights to access that resource. However You can use ByteOutputStream to read image file. This is an example (Its just an example, you need to do necessary changes as per your requirement.)

ByteArrayOutputStream bis = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
InputStream is = null;
try {
  is = url.openStream ();
  byte[] bytebuff = new byte[4096]; 
  int n;

  while ( (n = is.read(bytebuff)) > 0 ) {
    bis.write(bytebuff, 0, n);
  }
}

How can I pass an argument to a PowerShell script?

You can also define a variable directly in the PowerShell command line and then execute the script. The variable will be defined there, too. This helped me in a case where I couldn't modify a signed script.

Example:

 PS C:\temp> $stepsize = 30
 PS C:\temp> .\itunesForward.ps1

with iTunesForward.ps1 being

$iTunes = New-Object -ComObject iTunes.Application

if ($iTunes.playerstate -eq 1)
{
  $iTunes.PlayerPosition = $iTunes.PlayerPosition + $stepsize
}

Greyscale Background Css Images

You can also use:

img{
   filter:grayscale(100%);
}


img:hover{
   filter:none;
}

add allow_url_fopen to my php.ini using .htaccess

Try this, but I don't think it will work because you're not supposed to be able to change this

Put this line in an htaccess file in the directory you want the setting to be enabled:

php_value allow_url_fopen On

Note that this setting will only apply to PHP file's in the same directory as the htaccess file.

As an alternative to using url_fopen, try using curl.

How to process SIGTERM signal gracefully?

The simplest solution I have found, taking inspiration by responses above is

class SignalHandler:

    def __init__(self):

        # register signal handlers
        signal.signal(signal.SIGINT, self.exit_gracefully)
        signal.signal(signal.SIGTERM, self.exit_gracefully)

        self.logger = Logger(level=ERROR)

    def exit_gracefully(self, signum, frame):
        self.logger.info('captured signal %d' % signum)
        traceback.print_stack(frame)

Finding partial text in range, return an index

You can use "wildcards" with MATCH so assuming "ASDFGHJK" in H1 as per Peter's reply you can use this regular formula

=INDEX(G:G,MATCH("*"&H1&"*",G:G,0)+3)

MATCH can only reference a single column or row so if you want to search 6 columns you either have to set up a formula with 6 MATCH functions or change to another approach - try this "array formula", assuming search data in A2:G100

=INDIRECT("R"&REPLACE(TEXT(MIN(IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH(H1,A2:G100)),(ROW(A2:G100)+3)*1000+COLUMN(A2:G100))),"000000"),4,0,"C"),FALSE)

Read large files in Java

This is a very good article: http://java.sun.com/developer/technicalArticles/Programming/PerfTuning/

In summary, for great performance, you should:

  1. Avoid accessing the disk.
  2. Avoid accessing the underlying operating system.
  3. Avoid method calls.
  4. Avoid processing bytes and characters individually.

For example, to reduce the access to disk, you can use a large buffer. The article describes various approaches.

Import multiple csv files into pandas and concatenate into one DataFrame

The Dask library can read a dataframe from multiple files:

>>> import dask.dataframe as dd
>>> df = dd.read_csv('data*.csv')

(Source: https://examples.dask.org/dataframes/01-data-access.html#Read-CSV-files)

The Dask dataframes implement a subset of the Pandas dataframe API. If all the data fits into memory, you can call df.compute() to convert the dataframe into a Pandas dataframe.

Compress images on client side before uploading

I'm late to the party, but this solution worked for me quite well. Based on this library, you can use a function lik this - setting the image, quality, max-width, and output format (jepg,png):

function compress(source_img_obj, quality, maxWidth, output_format){
    var mime_type = "image/jpeg";
    if(typeof output_format !== "undefined" && output_format=="png"){
        mime_type = "image/png";
    }

    maxWidth = maxWidth || 1000;
    var natW = source_img_obj.naturalWidth;
    var natH = source_img_obj.naturalHeight;
    var ratio = natH / natW;
    if (natW > maxWidth) {
        natW = maxWidth;
        natH = ratio * maxWidth;
    }

    var cvs = document.createElement('canvas');
    cvs.width = natW;
    cvs.height = natH;

    var ctx = cvs.getContext("2d").drawImage(source_img_obj, 0, 0, natW, natH);
    var newImageData = cvs.toDataURL(mime_type, quality/100);
    var result_image_obj = new Image();
    result_image_obj.src = newImageData;
    return result_image_obj;
}

How to find rows that have a value that contains a lowercase letter

In Posgresql you could use ~

For example you could search for all rows that have col_a with any letter in lowercase

select * from your_table where col_a '[a-z]';

You could modify the Regex expression according your needs.

Spring expected at least 1 bean which qualifies as autowire candidate for this dependency

If there is an interface anywhere in the ThreadProvider hierarchy try putting the name of the Interface as the type of your service provider, eg. if you have say this structure:

public class ThreadProvider implements CustomInterface{
...
}

Then in your controller try this:

@Controller
public class ChiusuraController {

    @Autowired
    private CustomInterface chiusuraProvider;
}

The reason why this is happening is, in your first case when you DID NOT have ChiusuraProvider extend ThreadProvider Spring probably was underlying creating a CGLIB based proxy for you(to handle the @Transaction).

When you DID extend from ThreadProvider assuming that ThreadProvider extends some interface, Spring in that case creates a Java Dynamic Proxy based Proxy, which would appear to be an implementation of that interface instead of being of ChisuraProvider type.

If you absolutely need to use ChisuraProvider you can try AspectJ as an alternative or force CGLIB based proxy in the case with ThreadProvider also this way:

<aop:aspectj-autoproxy proxy-target-class="true"/>

Here is some more reference on this from the Spring Reference site: http://static.springsource.org/spring/docs/3.1.x/spring-framework-reference/html/classic-aop-spring.html#classic-aop-pfb

C# Debug - cannot start debugging because the debug target is missing

Please try with the steps below:

  1. Right click on the Visual Studio Project - Properties - Debug - (Start Action section) - select "Start project" radio button.
  2. Right click on the Visual Studio Project - Properties - Debug - (Enable Debuggers section) - mark "Enable the Visual Studio hosting process"
  3. Save changes Ctrl + Shift + S) and run the project again.

P.S. I experienced the same problem when I was playing with the options to redirect the console input / output to text file and have selected the option Properties - Debug - (Start Action section) - Start external program. When I moved the Solution to another location on my computer the problem occurred because it was searching for an absolute path to the executable file. Restoring the Visual Studio Project default settings (see above) fixed the problem. For your reference I am using Visual Studio 2013 Professional.

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.

Uploading a file in Rails

There is a nice gem especially for uploading files : carrierwave. If the wiki does not help , there is a nice RailsCast about the best way to use it . Summarizing , there is a field type file in Rails forms , which invokes the file upload dialog. You can use it , but the 'magic' is done by carrierwave gem .

I don't know what do you mean with "how to write to a file" , but I hope this is a nice start.

Python, print all floats to 2 decimal places in output

If you just want to convert the values to nice looking strings do the following:

twodecimals = ["%.2f" % v for v in vars]

Alternatively, you could also print out the units like you have in your question:

vars = [0, 1, 2, 3] # just some example values
units = ['kg', 'lb', 'gal', 'l']
delimiter = ', ' # or however you want the values separated

print delimiter.join(["%.2f %s" % (v,u) for v,u in zip(vars, units)])
Out[189]: '0.00 kg, 1.00 lb, 2.00 gal, 3.00 l'

The second way allows you to easily change the delimiter (tab, spaces, newlines, whatever) to suit your needs easily; the delimiter could also be a function argument instead of being hard-coded.

Edit: To use your 'name = value' syntax simply change the element-wise operation within the list comprehension:

print delimiter.join(["%s = %.2f" % (u,v) for v,u in zip(vars, units)])
Out[190]: 'kg = 0.00, lb = 1.00, gal = 2.00, l = 3.00'

jQuery - Detecting if a file has been selected in the file input

You should be able to attach an event handler to the onchange event of the input and have that call a function to set the text in your span.

<script type="text/javascript">
  $(function() {
     $("input:file").change(function (){
       var fileName = $(this).val();
       $(".filename").html(fileName);
     });
  });
</script>

You may want to add IDs to your input and span so you can select based on those to be specific to the elements you are concerned with and not other file inputs or spans in the DOM.

Get generic type of java.util.List

Use Reflection to get the Field for these then you can just do: field.genericType to get the type that contains the information about generic as well.

Conda activate not working?

To use "conda activate" via Windows CMD, not the Anaconda Prompt:
(in response to okorng's question, although using the Anaconda Prompt is the preferred option)

First, we need to add the activate.bat script to your path:
Via CMD:

set PATH=%PATH%;<your_path_to_anaconda_installation>\Scripts

Or via Control Panel, open "User Accounts" and choose "Change my environment variables".

Then calling directly from Windows CMD:

activate <environment_name>

without using the prefix "conda".

Create an empty object in JavaScript with {} or new Object()?

The object and array literal syntax {}/[] was introduced in JavaScript 1.2, so is not available (and will produce a syntax error) in versions of Netscape Navigator prior to 4.0.

How to implement static class member functions in *.cpp file?

Yes you can define static member functions in *.cpp file. If you define it in the header, compiler will by default treat it as inline. However, it does not mean separate copies of the static member function will exist in the executable. Please follow this post to learn more about this: Are static member functions in c++ copied in multiple translation units?

tar: file changed as we read it

It worked for me by adding a simple sleep timeout of 20 sec. This might happen if your source directory is still writing. Hence put a sleep so that the backup would finish and then tar should work fine. This also helped me in getting the right exit status.

HTML: Select multiple as dropdown

It's quite unpractical to make multiple select with size 1. think about it. I made a fiddle here: https://jsfiddle.net/wqd0yd5m/2/

    <option>456</option>
    <option>789</option>
</select>

Swap two variables without using a temporary variable

For completeness, here is the binary XOR swap:

int x = 42;
int y = 51236;
x ^= y;
y ^= x;
x ^= y;

This works for all atomic objects/references, as it deals directly with the bytes, but may require an unsafe context to work on decimals or, if you're feeling really twisted, pointers. And it may be slower than a temp variable in some circumstances as well.

Jquery Smooth Scroll To DIV - Using ID value from Link

      target = target.length ? target : $('[name=' + this.hash.slice(1) +']');
      if (target.length) {
        $('html,body').animate({
          scrollTop: target.offset().top
        }, 500);
        return false;
      }
    }
  });
});
</script>

With just this snippet you can use an unlimited number of hash-links and corresponding ids without having to execute a new script for each.

I already explained how it works in another thread here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/28631803/4566435 (or here's a direct link to my blog post)

For clarifications, let me know. Hope it helps!

How to replace blank (null ) values with 0 for all records?

Better solution is to use NZ (null to zero) function during generating table => NZ([ColumnName]) It comes 0 where is "null" in ColumnName.

Lock screen orientation (Android)

In the Manifest, you can set the screenOrientation to landscape. It would look something like this in the XML:

<activity android:name="MyActivity"
android:screenOrientation="landscape"
android:configChanges="keyboardHidden|orientation|screenSize">
...
</activity>

Where MyActivity is the one you want to stay in landscape.

The android:configChanges=... line prevents onResume(), onPause() from being called when the screen is rotated. Without this line, the rotation will stay as you requested but the calls will still be made.

Note: keyboardHidden and orientation are required for < Android 3.2 (API level 13), and all three options are required 3.2 or above, not just orientation.

How to manually force a commit in a @Transactional method?

Why don't you use spring's TransactionTemplate to programmatically control transactions? You could also restructure your code so that each "transaction block" has it's own @Transactional method, but given that it's a test I would opt for programmatic control of your transactions.

Also note that the @Transactional annotation on your runnable won't work (unless you are using aspectj) as the runnables aren't managed by spring!

@RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class)
//other spring-test annotations; as your database context is dirty due to the committed transaction you might want to consider using @DirtiesContext
public class TransactionTemplateTest {

@Autowired
PlatformTransactionManager platformTransactionManager;

TransactionTemplate transactionTemplate;

@Before
public void setUp() throws Exception {
    transactionTemplate = new TransactionTemplate(platformTransactionManager);
}

@Test //note that there is no @Transactional configured for the method
public void test() throws InterruptedException {

    final Contract c1 = transactionTemplate.execute(new TransactionCallback<Contract>() {
        @Override
        public Contract doInTransaction(TransactionStatus status) {
            Contract c = contractDOD.getNewTransientContract(15);
            contractRepository.save(c);
            return c;
        }
    });

    ExecutorService executorService = Executors.newFixedThreadPool(5);

    for (int i = 0; i < 5; ++i) {
        executorService.execute(new Runnable() {
            @Override  //note that there is no @Transactional configured for the method
            public void run() {
                transactionTemplate.execute(new TransactionCallback<Object>() {
                    @Override
                    public Object doInTransaction(TransactionStatus status) {
                        // do whatever you want to do with c1
                        return null;
                    }
                });
            }
        });
    }

    executorService.shutdown();
    executorService.awaitTermination(10, TimeUnit.SECONDS);

    transactionTemplate.execute(new TransactionCallback<Object>() {
        @Override
        public Object doInTransaction(TransactionStatus status) {
            // validate test results in transaction
            return null;
        }
    });
}

}

How to get default gateway in Mac OSX

For getting the list of ip addresses associated, you can use netstat command

netstat -rn 

This gives a long list of ip addresses and it is not easy to find the required field. The sample result is as following:

Routing tables
Internet:
Destination        Gateway            Flags        Refs      Use   Netif Expire
default            192.168.195.1      UGSc           17        0     en2
127                127.0.0.1          UCS             0        0     lo0
127.0.0.1          127.0.0.1          UH              1   254107     lo0
169.254            link#7             UCS             0        0     en2
192.168.195        link#7             UCS             3        0     en2
192.168.195.1      0:27:22:67:35:ee   UHLWIi         22      397     en2   1193
192.168.195.5      127.0.0.1          UHS             0        0     lo0

More result is truncated.......

The ip address of gateway is in the first line; one with default at its first column.

To display only the selected lines of result, we can use grep command along with netstat

netstat -rn | grep 'default'

This command filters and displays those lines of result having default. In this case, you can see result like following:

default            192.168.195.1      UGSc           14        0     en2

If you are interested in finding only the ip address of gateway and nothing else you can further filter the result using awk. The awk command matches pattern in the input result and displays the output. This can be useful when you are using your result directly in some program or batch job.

netstat -rn | grep 'default' | awk '{print $2}'

The awk command tells to match and print the second column of the result in the text. The final result thus looks like this:

192.168.195.1

In this case, netstat displays all result, grep only selects the line with 'default' in it, and awk further matches the pattern to display the second column in the text.

You can similarly use route -n get default command to get the required result. The full command is

route -n get default | grep 'gateway' | awk '{print $2}'

These commands work well in linux as well as unix systems and MAC OS.

Print multiple arguments in Python

Use: .format():

print("Total score for {0} is {1}".format(name, score))

Or:

// Recommended, more readable code

print("Total score for {n} is {s}".format(n=name, s=score))

Or:

print("Total score for" + name + " is " + score)

Or:

`print("Total score for %s is %d" % (name, score))`

Explanation of BASE terminology

The BASE acronym was defined by Eric Brewer, who is also known for formulating the CAP theorem.

The CAP theorem states that a distributed computer system cannot guarantee all of the following three properties at the same time:

  • Consistency
  • Availability
  • Partition tolerance

A BASE system gives up on consistency.

  • Basically available indicates that the system does guarantee availability, in terms of the CAP theorem.
  • Soft state indicates that the state of the system may change over time, even without input. This is because of the eventual consistency model.
  • Eventual consistency indicates that the system will become consistent over time, given that the system doesn't receive input during that time.

Brewer does admit that the acronym is contrived:

I came up with [the BASE] acronym with my students in their office earlier that year. I agree it is contrived a bit, but so is "ACID" -- much more than people realize, so we figured it was good enough.

Push to GitHub without a password using ssh-key

You have to use the SSH version, not HTTPS. When you clone from a repository, copy the link with the SSH version, because SSH is easy to use and solves all problems with access. You can set the access for every SSH you input into your account (like push, pull, clone, etc...)

Here is a link, which says why we need SSH and how to use it: step by step

What's the best way to add a full screen background image in React Native

I solved my background image issue using this code.

import React from 'react';
import { StyleSheet, Text, View,Alert,ImageBackground } from 'react-native';

import { TextInput,Button,IconButton,Colors,Avatar } from 'react-native-paper';

class SignInScreen extends React.Component {

    state = {
       UsernameOrEmail  : '',
       Password : '',
     }
    render() {
      return (
             <ImageBackground  source={require('../assets/icons/background3.jpg')} style {styles.backgroundImage}>
              <Text>React Native App</Text>
            </ImageBackground>
          );
    }
  }


    export default SignInScreen;

    const styles = StyleSheet.create({
     backgroundImage: {
      flex: 1,
      resizeMode: 'cover', // or 'stretch'
     }
   });

?: ?? Operators Instead Of IF|ELSE

Refering to ?: Operator (C# Reference)

The conditional operator (?:) returns one of two values depending on the value of a Boolean expression. Following is the syntax for the conditional operator.

Refering to ?? Operator (C# Reference)

The ?? operator is called the null-coalescing operator and is used to define a default value for a nullable value types as well as reference types. It returns the left-hand operand if it is not null; otherwise it returns the right operand.

That means:

[Part 1]

return source ?? String.Empty;

[Part 2] is not applicable ...

No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource - Resteasy

After facing a similar issue, below is what I did :

  • Created a class extending javax.ws.rs.core.Application and added a Cors Filter to it.

To the CORS filter, I added corsFilter.getAllowedOrigins().add("http://localhost:4200");.

Basically, you should add the URL which you want to allow Cross-Origin Resource Sharing. Ans you can also use "*" instead of any specific URL to allow any URL.

public class RestApplication
    extends Application
{
    private Set<Object> singletons = new HashSet<Object>();

    public MessageApplication()
    {
        singletons.add(new CalculatorService()); //CalculatorService is your specific service you want to add/use.
        CorsFilter corsFilter = new CorsFilter();
        // To allow all origins for CORS add following, otherwise add only specific urls.
        // corsFilter.getAllowedOrigins().add("*");
        System.out.println("To only allow restrcited urls ");
        corsFilter.getAllowedOrigins().add("http://localhost:4200");
        singletons = new LinkedHashSet<Object>();
        singletons.add(corsFilter);
    }

    @Override
    public Set<Object> getSingletons()
    {
        return singletons;
    }
}
  • And here is my web.xml:
<web-app id="WebApp_ID" version="2.4"

        <url-pattern>/rest/*</url-pattern>

The most important code which I was missing when I was getting this issue was, I was not adding my class extending javax.ws.rs.Application i.e RestApplication to the init-param of <servlet-name>resteasy-servlet</servlet-name>

   <init-param>
        <param-name>javax.ws.rs.Application</param-name>
        <param-value>com.app.RestApplication</param-value>
    </init-param>

And therefore my Filter was not able to execute and thus the application was not allowing CORS from the URL specified.

What is the correct Performance Counter to get CPU and Memory Usage of a Process?

How to download a file over HTTP?

If you have wget installed, you can use parallel_sync.

pip install parallel_sync

from parallel_sync import wget
urls = ['http://something.png', 'http://somthing.tar.gz', 'http://somthing.zip']
wget.download('/tmp', urls)
# or a single file:
wget.download('/tmp', urls[0], filenames='x.zip', extract=True)

Doc: https://pythonhosted.org/parallel_sync/pages/examples.html

This is pretty powerful. It can download files in parallel, retry upon failure , and it can even download files on a remote machine.

How to put a new line into a wpf TextBlock control?

For completeness: You can also do this:

 <TextBlock Text="Line1&#x0a;Line 2"/>

x0A is the escaped hexadecimal Line Feed. The equivalent of \n

Adding placeholder text to textbox

While using the EM_SETCUEBANNER message is probably simplest, one thing I do not like is that the placeholder text disappears when the control gets focus. That's a pet peeve of mine when I'm filling out forms. I have to click off of it to remember what the field is for.

So here is another solution for WinForms. It overlays a Label on top of the control, which disappears only when the user starts typing.

It's certainly not bulletproof. It accepts any Control, but I've only tested with a TextBox. It may need modification to work with some controls. The method returns the Label control in case you need to modify it a bit in a specific case, but that may never be needed.

Use it like this:

SetPlaceholder(txtSearch, "Type what you're searching for");

Here is the method:

/// <summary>
/// Sets placeholder text on a control (may not work for some controls)
/// </summary>
/// <param name="control">The control to set the placeholder on</param>
/// <param name="text">The text to display as the placeholder</param>
/// <returns>The newly-created placeholder Label</returns>
public static Label SetPlaceholder(Control control, string text) {
    var placeholder = new Label {
        Text = text,
        Font = control.Font,
        ForeColor = Color.Gray,
        BackColor = Color.Transparent,
        Cursor = Cursors.IBeam,
        Margin = Padding.Empty,

        //get rid of the left margin that all labels have
        FlatStyle = FlatStyle.System,
        AutoSize = false,

        //Leave 1px on the left so we can see the blinking cursor
        Size = new Size(control.Size.Width - 1, control.Size.Height),
        Location = new Point(control.Location.X + 1, control.Location.Y)
    };

    //when clicking on the label, pass focus to the control
    placeholder.Click += (sender, args) => { control.Focus(); };

    //disappear when the user starts typing
    control.TextChanged += (sender, args) => {
        placeholder.Visible = string.IsNullOrEmpty(control.Text);
    };

    //stay the same size/location as the control
    EventHandler updateSize = (sender, args) => {
        placeholder.Location = new Point(control.Location.X + 1, control.Location.Y);
        placeholder.Size = new Size(control.Size.Width - 1, control.Size.Height);
    };

    control.SizeChanged += updateSize;
    control.LocationChanged += updateSize;

    control.Parent.Controls.Add(placeholder);
    placeholder.BringToFront();

    return placeholder;
}

CMake output/build directory

As of CMake Wiki:

CMAKE_BINARY_DIR if you are building in-source, this is the same as CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR, otherwise this is the top level directory of your build tree

Compare these two variables to determine if out-of-source build was started

Angular and debounce

We can create a [debounce] directive which overwrites ngModel's default viewToModelUpdate function with an empty one.

Directive Code

@Directive({ selector: '[debounce]' })
export class MyDebounce implements OnInit {
    @Input() delay: number = 300;

    constructor(private elementRef: ElementRef, private model: NgModel) {
    }

    ngOnInit(): void {
        const eventStream = Observable.fromEvent(this.elementRef.nativeElement, 'keyup')
            .map(() => {
                return this.model.value;
            })
            .debounceTime(this.delay);

        this.model.viewToModelUpdate = () => {};

        eventStream.subscribe(input => {
            this.model.viewModel = input;
            this.model.update.emit(input);
        });
    }
}

How to use it

<div class="ui input">
  <input debounce [delay]=500 [(ngModel)]="myData" type="text">
</div>

Sort a list by multiple attributes?

A key can be a function that returns a tuple:

s = sorted(s, key = lambda x: (x[1], x[2]))

Or you can achieve the same using itemgetter (which is faster and avoids a Python function call):

import operator
s = sorted(s, key = operator.itemgetter(1, 2))

And notice that here you can use sort instead of using sorted and then reassigning:

s.sort(key = operator.itemgetter(1, 2))

Transform DateTime into simple Date in Ruby on Rails

DateTime#to_date does exist with ActiveSupport:

$ irb
>> DateTime.new.to_date
NoMethodError: undefined method 'to_date' for #<DateTime: -1/2,0,2299161>
    from (irb):1

>> require 'active_support/core_ext'
=> true

>> DateTime.new.to_date
=> Mon, 01 Jan -4712

Repeat table headers in print mode

This is what the THEAD element is for. Official docs here.

Hive cast string to date dd-MM-yyyy

AFAIK you must reformat your String in ISO format to be able to cast it as a Date:

cast(concat(substr(STR_DMY,7,4), '-',
            substr(STR_DMY,1,2), '-',
            substr(STR_DMY,4,2)
           )
     as date
     ) as DT

To display a Date as a String with specific format, then it's the other way around, unless you have Hive 1.2+ and can use date_format()

=> did you check the documentation by the way?

'nuget' is not recognized but other nuget commands working

Nuget.exe is placed at .nuget folder of your project. It can't be executed directly in Package Manager Console, but is executed by Powershell commands because these commands build custom path for themselves.

My steps to solve are:


Update

NuGet can be easily installed in your project using the following command:

Install-Package NuGet.CommandLine

Check if element is clickable in Selenium Java

There are certain things you have to take care:

  • WebDriverWait inconjunction with ExpectedConditions as elementToBeClickable() returns the WebElement once it is located and clickable i.e. visible and enabled.
  • In this process, WebDriverWait will ignore instances of NotFoundException that are encountered by default in the until condition.
  • Once the duration of the wait expires on the desired element not being located and clickable, will throw a timeout exception.
  • The different approach to address this issue are:
    • To invoke click() as soon as the element is returned, you can use:

      new WebDriverWait(driver, 10).until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(By.xpath("(//div[@id='brandSlider']/div[1]/div/div/div/img)[50]"))).click();
      
    • To simply validate if the element is located and clickable, wrap up the WebDriverWait in a try-catch{} block as follows:

      try {
             new WebDriverWait(driver, 10).until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(By.xpath("(//div[@id='brandSlider']/div[1]/div/div/div/img)[50]")));
             System.out.println("Element is clickable");
           }
      catch(TimeoutException e) {
             System.out.println("Element isn't clickable");
          }
      
    • If WebDriverWait returns the located and clickable element but the element is still not clickable, you need to invoke executeScript() method as follows:

      WebElement element = new WebDriverWait(driver, 10).until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(By.xpath("(//div[@id='brandSlider']/div[1]/div/div/div/img)[50]"))); 
      ((JavascriptExecutor)driver).executeScript("arguments[0].click();", element);
      

SmtpException: Unable to read data from the transport connection: net_io_connectionclosed

Prepare: 1. HostA is SMTP virtual server with default port 25 2. HostB is a workstation on which I send mail with SmtpClient and simulate unstable network I use clumsy

Case 1 Given If HostB is 2008R2 When I send email. Then This issue occurs.

Case 2 Given If HostB is 2012 or higher version When I send email. Then The mail was sent out.

Conclusion: This root cause is related with Windows Server 2008R2.

jQuery bind to Paste Event, how to get the content of the paste

Another approach: That input event will catch also the paste event.

$('textarea').bind('input', function () {
    setTimeout(function () { 
        console.log('input event handled including paste event');
    }, 0);
});

Find an element in a list of tuples

There is actually a clever way to do this that is useful for any list of tuples where the size of each tuple is 2: you can convert your list into a single dictionary.

For example,

test = [("hi", 1), ("there", 2)]
test = dict(test)
print test["hi"] # prints 1

jQuery Mobile: Stick footer to bottom of page

Fixed basics

To enable this behavior on a header or footer, add the data-position="fixed" attribute to a jQuery Mobile header or footer element.

<div data-role="footer" data-position="fixed">
    <h1>Fixed Footer!</h1>
</div>

How to append to the end of an empty list?

Like Mikola said, append() returns a void, so every iteration you're setting list1 to a nonetype because append is returning a nonetype. On the next iteration, list1 is null so you're trying to call the append method of a null. Nulls don't have methods, hence your error.

How to export DataTable to Excel

Just Make use of the CloseMXL.Excel Library. It's easy and pretty fast too.

Class

private DataTable getAllList()
        {
            string constr = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["RConnection"].ConnectionString;
            using (SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection(constr))
            {
                using (SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("SELECT EmpId, gender, EmpName, pOnHold FROM Employee  WHERE EmpId= '"+ AnyVariable + "' ORDER BY EmpName"))
                {
                    using (SqlDataAdapter da = new SqlDataAdapter())
                    {
                        DataTable dt = new DataTable();
                        cmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text;
                        cmd.Connection = con;
                        da.SelectCommand = cmd;
                        da.Fill(dt);
                        dt.Columns[0].ColumnName = "Employee Id";
                        dt.Columns[1].ColumnName = "Gender";
                        dt.Columns[2].ColumnName = "Employee Name";
                        dt.Columns[3].ColumnName = "On Hold";

                        return dt;
                    }
                }
            }
        }

Then another method which get the Dataset

public DataSet getDataSetExportToExcel()
        {
            DataSet ds = new DataSet();
            DataTable dtEmp = new DataTable("CLOT List");

How to make child process die after parent exits?

Another way to do this that is Linux specific is to have the parent be created in a new PID namespace. It will then be PID 1 in that namespace, and when it exits it all of it's children will be immediately killed with SIGKILL.

Unfortunately, in order to create a new PID namespace you have to have CAP_SYS_ADMIN. But, this method is very effective and requires no real change to the parent or the children beyond the initial launch of the parent.

See clone(2), pid_namespaces(7), and unshare(2).

Pandas Split Dataframe into two Dataframes at a specific row

I generally use array split because it's easier simple syntax and scales better with more than 2 partitions.

import numpy as np
partitions = 2
dfs = np.array_split(df, partitions)

np.split(df, [100,200,300], axis=0] wants explicit index numbers which may or may not be desirable.

error C2220: warning treated as error - no 'object' file generated

The error says that a warning was treated as an error, therefore your problem is a warning message! The object file is then not created because there was an error. So you need to check your warnings and fix them.

In case you don't know how to find them: Open the Error List (View > Error List) and click on Warning.

Django TemplateDoesNotExist?

in your setting.py file replace DIRS in TEMPLATES array with this

'DIRS': []

to this

'DIRS': [os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'templates')],

but 1 think u need to know is that you have to make a folder with name templates and it should on the root path otherwise u have to change the DIRS value

hasOwnProperty in JavaScript

Try this:

function welcomeMessage()
{
    var shape1 = new Shape();
    //alert(shape1.draw());
    alert(shape1.hasOwnProperty("name"));
}

When working with reflection in JavaScript, member objects are always refered to as the name as a string. For example:

for(i in obj) { ... }

The loop iterator i will be hold a string value with the name of the property. To use that in code you have to address the property using the array operator like this:

 for(i in obj) {
   alert("The value of obj." + i + " = " + obj[i]);
 }

How do I syntax check a Bash script without running it?

sh  -n   script-name 

Run this. If there are any syntax errors in the script, then it returns the same error message. If there are no errors, then it comes out without giving any message. You can check immediately by using echo $?, which will return 0 confirming successful without any mistake.

It worked for me well. I ran on Linux OS, Bash Shell.

How to get rows count of internal table in abap?

Collections sort(List<T>,Comparator<? super T>) method example

Building upon your existing Student class, this is how I usually do it, especially if I need more than one comparator.

public class Student implements Comparable<Student> {

    String name;
    int age;

    public Student(String name, int age) {
       this.name = name;
       this.age = age;
    }

    @Override
    public String toString() {
        return name + ":" + age;
    }

    @Override
    public int compareTo(Student o) {
        return Comparators.NAME.compare(this, o);
    }


    public static class Comparators {

        public static Comparator<Student> NAME = new Comparator<Student>() {
            @Override
            public int compare(Student o1, Student o2) {
                return o1.name.compareTo(o2.name);
            }
        };
        public static Comparator<Student> AGE = new Comparator<Student>() {
            @Override
            public int compare(Student o1, Student o2) {
                return o1.age - o2.age;
            }
        };
        public static Comparator<Student> NAMEANDAGE = new Comparator<Student>() {
            @Override
            public int compare(Student o1, Student o2) {
                int i = o1.name.compareTo(o2.name);
                if (i == 0) {
                    i = o1.age - o2.age;
                }
                return i;
            }
        };
    }
}

Usage:

List<Student> studentList = new LinkedList<>();
Collections.sort(studentList, Student.Comparators.AGE);

EDIT

Since the release of Java 8 the inner class Comparators may be greatly simplified using lambdas. Java 8 also introduces a new method for the Comparator object thenComparing, which removes the need for doing manual checking of each comparator when nesting them. Below is the Java 8 implementation of the Student.Comparators class with these changes taken into account.

public static class Comparators {
    public static final Comparator<Student> NAME = (Student o1, Student o2) -> o1.name.compareTo(o2.name);
    public static final Comparator<Student> AGE = (Student o1, Student o2) -> Integer.compare(o1.age, o2.age);
    public static final Comparator<Student> NAMEANDAGE = (Student o1, Student o2) -> NAME.thenComparing(AGE).compare(o1, o2);
}

Getting the location from an IP address

Thought I'd post as nobody seems to have given info on this particular API, but its returning exactly what I'm after and you can get it to return in multiple formats, json, xml and csv.

 $location = file_get_contents('http://freegeoip.net/json/'.$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']);
 print_r($location);

This will give you all of the things you could possibly want:

{
      "ip": "77.99.179.98",
      "country_code": "GB",
      "country_name": "United Kingdom",
      "region_code": "H9",
      "region_name": "London, City of",
      "city": "London",
      "zipcode": "",
      "latitude": 51.5142,
      "longitude": -0.0931,
      "metro_code": "",
      "areacode": ""

}

Is there a "standard" format for command line/shell help text?

Take a look at docopt. It is a formal standard for documenting (and automatically parsing) command line arguments.

For example...

Usage:
  my_program command --option <argument>
  my_program [<optional-argument>]
  my_program --another-option=<with-argument>
  my_program (--either-that-option | <or-this-argument>)
  my_program <repeating-argument> <repeating-argument>...

How to call Base Class's __init__ method from the child class?

As Mingyu pointed out, there is a problem in formatting. Other than that, I would strongly recommend not using the Derived class's name while calling super() since it makes your code inflexible (code maintenance and inheritance issues). In Python 3, Use super().__init__ instead. Here is the code after incorporating these changes :

class Car(object):
    condition = "new"

    def __init__(self, model, color, mpg):
        self.model = model
        self.color = color
        self.mpg   = mpg

class ElectricCar(Car):

    def __init__(self, battery_type, model, color, mpg):
        self.battery_type=battery_type
        super().__init__(model, color, mpg)

Thanks to Erwin Mayer for pointing out the issue in using __class__ with super()

How can I limit possible inputs in a HTML5 "number" element?

a simple way to set maxlength for number inputs is:

<input type="number" onkeypress="return this.value.length < 4;" oninput="if(this.value.length>=4) { this.value = this.value.slice(0,4); }" />

JavaScript OOP in NodeJS: how?

This is an example that works out of the box. If you want less "hacky", you should use inheritance library or such.

Well in a file animal.js you would write:

var method = Animal.prototype;

function Animal(age) {
    this._age = age;
}

method.getAge = function() {
    return this._age;
};

module.exports = Animal;

To use it in other file:

var Animal = require("./animal.js");

var john = new Animal(3);

If you want a "sub class" then inside mouse.js:

var _super = require("./animal.js").prototype,
    method = Mouse.prototype = Object.create( _super );

method.constructor = Mouse;

function Mouse() {
    _super.constructor.apply( this, arguments );
}
//Pointless override to show super calls
//note that for performance (e.g. inlining the below is impossible)
//you should do
//method.$getAge = _super.getAge;
//and then use this.$getAge() instead of super()
method.getAge = function() {
    return _super.getAge.call(this);
};

module.exports = Mouse;

Also you can consider "Method borrowing" instead of vertical inheritance. You don't need to inherit from a "class" to use its method on your class. For instance:

 var method = List.prototype;
 function List() {

 }

 method.add = Array.prototype.push;

 ...

 var a = new List();
 a.add(3);
 console.log(a[0]) //3;

Hibernate: How to fix "identifier of an instance altered from X to Y"?

Make sure you aren't trying to use the same User object more than once while changing the ID. In other words, if you were doing something in a batch type operation:

User user = new User();  // Using the same one over and over, won't work
List<Customer> customers = fetchCustomersFromSomeService();
for(Customer customer : customers) {
 // User user = new User(); <-- This would work, you get a new one each time
 user.setId(customer.getId());
 user.setName(customer.getName());
 saveUserToDB(user);
}

Write single CSV file using spark-csv

It is creating a folder with multiple files, because each partition is saved individually. If you need a single output file (still in a folder) you can repartition (preferred if upstream data is large, but requires a shuffle):

df
   .repartition(1)
   .write.format("com.databricks.spark.csv")
   .option("header", "true")
   .save("mydata.csv")

or coalesce:

df
   .coalesce(1)
   .write.format("com.databricks.spark.csv")
   .option("header", "true")
   .save("mydata.csv")

data frame before saving:

All data will be written to mydata.csv/part-00000. Before you use this option be sure you understand what is going on and what is the cost of transferring all data to a single worker. If you use distributed file system with replication, data will be transfered multiple times - first fetched to a single worker and subsequently distributed over storage nodes.

Alternatively you can leave your code as it is and use general purpose tools like cat or HDFS getmerge to simply merge all the parts afterwards.

React Native fixed footer

The best way is to use justifyContent property

<View style={{flexDirection:'column',justifyContent:'flex-end'}}>
     <View>
        <Text>fixed footer</Text>
    </View>
</View>

if you have multiple view elements on screen, then you can use

<View style={{flexDirection:'column',justifyContent:'space-between'}}>
     <View>
        <Text>view 1</Text>
    </View>
    <View>
        <Text>view 2</Text>
    </View>
    <View>
        <Text>fixed footer</Text>
    </View>
</View>

Writing MemoryStream to Response Object

Try with this

Response.Clear();
Response.AppendHeader("Content-Type", "application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.presentationml.presentation");
Response.AppendHeader("Content-Disposition", string.Format("attachment;filename={0}.pptx;", getLegalFileName(CurrentPresentation.Presentation_NM)));
Response.Flush();                
Response.BinaryWrite(masterPresentation.ToArray());
Response.End();

filemtime "warning stat failed for"

For me the filename involved was appended with a querystring, which this function didn't like.

$path = 'path/to/my/file.js?v=2'

Solution was to chop that off first:

$path = preg_replace('/\?v=[\d]+$/', '', $path);
$fileTime = filemtime($path);

XML Carriage return encoding

Is it good practice to use the xor operator for boolean checks?

If the usage pattern justifies it, why not? While your team doesn't recognize the operator right away, with time they could. Humans learn new words all the time. Why not in programming?

The only caution I might state is that "^" doesn't have the short circuit semantics of your second boolean check. If you really need the short circuit semantics, then a static util method works too.

public static boolean xor(boolean a, boolean b) {
    return (a && !b) || (b && !a);
}

how to determine size of tablespace oracle 11g

The following query can be used to detemine tablespace and other params:

select df.tablespace_name "Tablespace",
       totalusedspace "Used MB",
       (df.totalspace - tu.totalusedspace) "Free MB",
       df.totalspace "Total MB",
       round(100 * ( (df.totalspace - tu.totalusedspace)/ df.totalspace)) "Pct. Free"
  from (select tablespace_name,
               round(sum(bytes) / 1048576) TotalSpace
          from dba_data_files 
         group by tablespace_name) df,
       (select round(sum(bytes)/(1024*1024)) totalusedspace,
               tablespace_name
          from dba_segments 
         group by tablespace_name) tu
 where df.tablespace_name = tu.tablespace_name 
   and df.totalspace <> 0;

Source: https://community.oracle.com/message/1832920

For your case if you want to know the partition name and it's size just run this query:

select owner,
       segment_name,
       partition_name,
       segment_type,
       bytes / 1024/1024 "MB" 
  from dba_segments 
 where owner = <owner_name>;

Initialization of all elements of an array to one default value in C++?

Using the syntax that you used,

int array[100] = {-1};

says "set the first element to -1 and the rest to 0" since all omitted elements are set to 0.

In C++, to set them all to -1, you can use something like std::fill_n (from <algorithm>):

std::fill_n(array, 100, -1);

In portable C, you have to roll your own loop. There are compiler-extensions or you can depend on implementation-defined behavior as a shortcut if that's acceptable.

ORA-01017 Invalid Username/Password when connecting to 11g database from 9i client

The tip on Oracle's OTN = Don't type your password in TOAD when you try to connect and let it popup a dialog box for your password. Type the password in there and it will work. Not sure what they've done in TOAD with passwords but that is a workaround. It has to do with case sensitive passwords in 11g. I think if you change the password to all upper case it will work with TOAD. https://community.oracle.com/thread/908022

How do I automatically resize an image for a mobile site?

SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: Name or service not known

In my case, it had absolute nothing to do with network issues.

I had been using my local laravel testing environment using laradock. Because laradock runs the mysql server in a different container, you have to set your mysql host in the .env file to the name of the docker mysql container, which by default is mysql.

When I switched back to using homestead, it was trying to connect to a host named mysql, when in fact is should be looking on localhost.

What is the effect of extern "C" in C++?

Without conflicting with other good answers, I will add a bit of my example.

What exactly C++ Compiler does: it mangles the names in the compilation process, hence we require telling the compiler to treat C implementation specially.

When we are making C++ classes and adding extern "C", we're telling our C++ compiler that we are using C calling convention.

Reason (we are calling C implementation from C++): either we want to call C function from C++ or calling C++ function from C (C++ classes ... etc do not work in C).

XmlWriter to Write to a String Instead of to a File

You need to create a StringWriter, and pass that to the XmlWriter.

The string overload of the XmlWriter.Create is for a filename.

E.g.

using (var sw = new StringWriter()) {
  using (var xw = XmlWriter.Create(sw)) {
    // Build Xml with xw.


  }
  return sw.ToString();
}

Javascript - removing undefined fields from an object

I prefer to use something like Lodash:

import { pickBy, identity } from 'lodash'

const cleanedObject = pickBy(originalObject, identity)

Note that the identity function is just x => x and its result will be false for all falsy values. So this removes undefined, "", 0, null, ...

If you only want the undefined values removed you can do this:

const cleanedObject = pickBy(originalObject, v => v !== undefined)

It gives you a new object, which is usually preferable over mutating the original object like some of the other answers suggest.

What's the easiest way to install a missing Perl module?

On Fedora Linux or Enterprise Linux, yum also tracks perl library dependencies. So, if the perl module is available, and some rpm package exports that dependency, it will install the right package for you.

yum install 'perl(Chocolate::Belgian)'

(most likely perl-Chocolate-Belgian package, or even ChocolateFactory package)

How do you stop tracking a remote branch in Git?

You can delete the remote-tracking branch using

git branch -d -r origin/<remote branch name>

as VonC mentions above. However, if you keep your local copy of the branch, git push will still try to push that branch (which could give you a non-fast-forward error as it did for ruffin). This is because the config push.default defaults to matching which means:

matching - push all matching branches. All branches having the same name in both ends are considered to be matching. This is the default.

(see http://git-scm.com/docs/git-config under push.default)

Seeing as this is probably not what you wanted when you deleted the remote-tracking branch, you can set push.default to upstream (or tracking if you have git < 1.7.4.3)

upstream - push the current branch to its upstream branch.

using

git config push.default upstream

and git will stop trying to push branches that you have "stopped tracking."

Note: The simpler solution would be to just rename your local branch to something else. That would eliminate some potential for confusion, as well.

CertPathValidatorException : Trust anchor for certificate path not found - Retrofit Android

DISCLAIMER: this answer is from Jul 2015 and uses Retrofit and OkHttp from that time.
Check this link for more info on Retrofit v2 and this one for the current OkHttp methods.

Okay, I got it working using Android Developers guide.

Just as OP, I'm trying to use Retrofit and OkHttp to connect to a self-signed SSL-enabled server.

Here's the code that got things working (I've removed the try/catch blocks):

public static RestAdapter createAdapter(Context context) {
  // loading CAs from an InputStream
  CertificateFactory cf = CertificateFactory.getInstance("X.509");
  InputStream cert = context.getResources().openRawResource(R.raw.my_cert);
  Certificate ca;
  try {
    ca = cf.generateCertificate(cert);
  } finally { cert.close(); }

  // creating a KeyStore containing our trusted CAs
  String keyStoreType = KeyStore.getDefaultType();
  KeyStore keyStore = KeyStore.getInstance(keyStoreType);
  keyStore.load(null, null);
  keyStore.setCertificateEntry("ca", ca);

  // creating a TrustManager that trusts the CAs in our KeyStore
  String tmfAlgorithm = TrustManagerFactory.getDefaultAlgorithm();
  TrustManagerFactory tmf = TrustManagerFactory.getInstance(tmfAlgorithm);
  tmf.init(keyStore);

  // creating an SSLSocketFactory that uses our TrustManager
  SSLContext sslContext = SSLContext.getInstance("TLS");
  sslContext.init(null, tmf.getTrustManagers(), null);

  // creating an OkHttpClient that uses our SSLSocketFactory
  OkHttpClient okHttpClient = new OkHttpClient();
  okHttpClient.setSslSocketFactory(sslContext.getSocketFactory());

  // creating a RestAdapter that uses this custom client
  return new RestAdapter.Builder()
              .setEndpoint(UrlRepository.API_BASE)
              .setClient(new OkClient(okHttpClient))
              .build();
}

To help in debugging, I also added .setLogLevel(RestAdapter.LogLevel.FULL) to my RestAdapter creation commands and I could see it connecting and getting the response from the server.

All it took was my original .crt file saved in main/res/raw. The .crt file, aka the certificate, is one of the two files created when you create a certificate using openssl. Generally, it is a .crt or .cert file, while the other is a .key file.

Afaik, the .crt file is your public key and the .key file is your private key.

As I can see, you already have a .cert file, which is the same, so try to use it.


PS: For those that read it in the future and only have a .pem file, according to this answer, you only need this to convert one to the other:

openssl x509 -outform der -in your-cert.pem -out your-cert.crt

PS²: For those that don't have any file at all, you can use the following command (bash) to extract the public key (aka certificate) from any server:

echo -n | openssl s_client -connect your.server.com:443 | \
  sed -ne '/-BEGIN CERTIFICATE-/,/-END CERTIFICATE-/p' > ~/my_cert.crt

Just replace the your.server.com and the port (if it is not standard HTTPS) and choose a valid path for your output file to be created.

Export table data from one SQL Server to another

Try using the SQL Server Import and Export Wizard (under Tasks -> Export Data).

It offers to create the tables in the destination database. Whereas, as you've seen, the scripting wizard can only create the table structure.

How to set up fixed width for <td>?

Ok, I just figured out where was the problem - in Bootstrap is set up as a default value width for select element, thus, the solution is:

tr. something {
  td {
    select {
      width: 90px;
    }
  }
}

Anything else doesn't work me.

How to create EditText accepts Alphabets only in android?

When is a C++ destructor called?

1) If the object is created via a pointer and that pointer is later deleted or given a new address to point to, does the object that it was pointing to call its destructor (assuming nothing else is pointing to it)?

It depends on the type of pointers. For example, smart pointers often delete their objects when they are deleted. Ordinary pointers do not. The same is true when a pointer is made to point to a different object. Some smart pointers will destroy the old object, or will destroy it if it has no more references. Ordinary pointers have no such smarts. They just hold an address and allow you to perform operations on the objects they point to by specifically doing so.

2) Following up on question 1, what defines when an object goes out of scope (not regarding to when an object leaves a given {block}). So, in other words, when is a destructor called on an object in a linked list?

That's up to the implementation of the linked list. Typical collections destroy all their contained objects when they are destroyed.

So, a linked list of pointers would typically destroy the pointers but not the objects they point to. (Which may be correct. They may be references by other pointers.) A linked list specifically designed to contain pointers, however, might delete the objects on its own destruction.

A linked list of smart pointers could automatically delete the objects when the pointers are deleted, or do so if they had no more references. It's all up to you to pick the pieces that do what you want.

3) Would you ever want to call a destructor manually?

Sure. One example would be if you want to replace an object with another object of the same type but don't want to free memory just to allocate it again. You can destroy the old object in place and construct a new one in place. (However, generally this is a bad idea.)

// pointer is destroyed because it goes out of scope,
// but not the object it pointed to. memory leak
if (1) {
 Foo *myfoo = new Foo("foo");
}


// pointer is destroyed because it goes out of scope,
// object it points to is deleted. no memory leak
if(1) {
 Foo *myfoo = new Foo("foo");
 delete myfoo;
}

// no memory leak, object goes out of scope
if(1) {
 Foo myfoo("foo");
}

Breaking to a new line with inline-block?

I think floats may work best for you here, if you dont want the element to occupy the whole line, float it left should work.

.text span {
       background:rgba(165, 220, 79, 0.8);
       float: left;
       clear: left;
       padding:7px 10px;
       color:white;
    }

Note:Remove <br/>'s before using this off course.

call a function in success of datatable ajax call

The best way I have found is to use the initComplete method as it fires after the data has been retrieved and renders the table. NOTE this only fires once though.

$("#tableOfData").DataTable({
        "pageLength": 50,
        "ajax":{
            url: someurl,
            dataType : "json",
            type: "post",
            "data": {data to be sent}
        },
        "initComplete":function( settings, json){
            console.log(json);
            // call your function here
        }
    });

How can I count the number of matches for a regex?

This should work for matches that might overlap:

public static void main(String[] args) {
    String input = "aaaaaaaa";
    String regex = "aa";
    Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile(regex);
    Matcher matcher = pattern.matcher(input);
    int from = 0;
    int count = 0;
    while(matcher.find(from)) {
        count++;
        from = matcher.start() + 1;
    }
    System.out.println(count);
}

How to properly assert that an exception gets raised in pytest?

PHP string "contains"

You can use stristr() or strpos(). Both return false if nothing is found.

store return json value in input hidden field

You can use input.value = JSON.stringify(obj) to transform the object to a string.
And when you need it back you can use obj = JSON.parse(input.value)

The JSON object is available on modern browsers or you can use the json2.js library from json.org

Found 'OR 1=1/* sql injection in my newsletter database

The specific value in your database isn't what you should be focusing on. This is likely the result of an attacker fuzzing your system to see if it is vulnerable to a set of standard attacks, instead of a targeted attack exploiting a known vulnerability.

You should instead focus on ensuring that your application is secure against these types of attacks; OWASP is a good resource for this.

If you're using parameterized queries to access the database, then you're secure against Sql injection, unless you're using dynamic Sql in the backend as well.

If you're not doing this, you're vulnerable and you should resolve this immediately.

Also, you should consider performing some sort of validation of e-mail addresses.

What 'additional configuration' is necessary to reference a .NET 2.0 mixed mode assembly in a .NET 4.0 project?

I found a way around this after 3-4 hours of googling. I have added the following

<startup selegacyv2runtimeactivationpolicy="true">
  <supportedruntime version="v4.0" sku=".NETFramework,Version=v4.0,Profile=Client" />
</startup>

If this doesn't solve your problem then--> In the Project References Right Click on DLL where you getting error --> Select Properties--> Check the Run-time Version --> If it is v2.0.50727 then we know the problem. The Problem is :- you are having 2.0 Version of respective DLL. Solution is:- You can delete the respective DLL from the Project references and then download the latest version of DLL's from the corresponding website and add the reference of the latest version DLL reference then it will work.

Return Type for jdbcTemplate.queryForList(sql, object, classType)

In order to map a the result set of query to a particular Java class you'll probably be best (assuming you're interested in using the object elsewhere) off with a RowMapper to convert the columns in the result set into an object instance.

See Section 12.2.1.1 of Data access with JDBC on how to use a row mapper.

In short, you'll need something like:

List<Conversation> actors = jdbcTemplate.query(
    SELECT_ALL_CONVERSATIONS_SQL_FULL,
    new Object[] {userId, dateFrom, dateTo},
    new RowMapper<Conversation>() {
        public Conversation mapRow(ResultSet rs, int rowNum) throws SQLException {
            Conversation c = new Conversation();
            c.setId(rs.getLong(1));
            c.setRoom(rs.getString(2));
            [...]
            return c;
        }
    });

What is the difference between CMD and ENTRYPOINT in a Dockerfile?

I run across this and at the beginning I found it really confusing to be honest and I think this confusion comes from using the word "CMD" because in fact what goes there acts as argument. So after digging a little bit I understood how it works. Basically:

ENTRYPOINT --> what you specify here would be the command to be executed when you container starts. If you omit this definition docker will use /bin/sh -c bash to run your container.

CMD --> these are the arguments appended to the ENTRYPOINT unless the user specifies some custom argument, i.e: docker run ubuntu <custom_cmd> in this case instead of appending what's specified on the image in the CMD section, docker will run ENTRYPOINT <custom_cmd>. In case ENTRYPOINT has not been specified, what goes here will be passed to /bin/sh -c acting in fact as the command to be executed when starting the container.

As everything it's better to explain what's going on by examples. So let's say I create a simple docker image by using the following specification Dockerfile:

From ubuntu
ENTRYPOINT ["sleep"]

Then I build it by running the following:

docker build . -t testimg

This will create a container that everytime you run it sleeps. So If I run it as following:

docker run testimg

I'll get the following:

sleep: missing operand
Try 'sleep --help' for more information.

This happens because the entry point is the "sleep" command which needs an argument. So to fix this I'll just provide the amount to sleep:

docker run testimg 5

This will run correctly and as consequence the container will run, sleeps 5 seconds and exits. As we can see in this example docker just appended what goes after the image name to the entry point binary docker run testimg <my_cmd>. What happens if we want to pass a default value (default argument) to the entry point? in this case we just need to specify it in the CMD section, for example:

From ubuntu
ENTRYPOINT ["sleep"]
CMD ["10"]

In this case if the user doesn't pass any argument the container will use the default value (10) and pass it to entry point sleep.

Now let's use just CMD and omit ENTRYPOINT definition:

FROM ubuntu
CMD ["sleep", "5"]

If we rebuild and run this image it will basically sleeps for 5 seconds.

So in summary, you can use ENTRYPOINT in order to make your container acts as an executable. You can use CMD to provide default arguments to your entry point or to run a custom command when starting your container that can be overridden from outside by user.

How to submit a form when the return key is pressed?

Use the following script.

<SCRIPT TYPE="text/javascript">
<!--
    function submitenter(myfield,e)
    {
        var keycode;
        if (window.event) keycode = window.event.keyCode;
        else if (e) keycode = e.which;
        else return true;

        if (keycode == 13)
        {
            myfield.form.submit();
            return false;
        }
        else
            return true;
    }
//-->
</SCRIPT>

For each field that should submit the form when the user hits enter, call the submitenter function as follows.

<FORM ACTION="../cgi-bin/formaction.pl">
    name:     <INPUT NAME=realname SIZE=15><BR>
    password: <INPUT NAME=password TYPE=PASSWORD SIZE=10
       onKeyPress="return submitenter(this,event)"><BR>
<INPUT TYPE=SUBMIT VALUE="Submit">
</FORM>

Converting double to string with N decimals, dot as decimal separator, and no thousand separator

You can simply use decimal.ToString()

For two decimals

myDecimal.ToString("0.00");

For four decimals

myDecimal.ToString("0.0000");

This gives dot as decimal separator, and no thousand separator regardless of culture.

Convert bytes to a string

From sys — System-specific parameters and functions:

To write or read binary data from/to the standard streams, use the underlying binary buffer. For example, to write bytes to stdout, use sys.stdout.buffer.write(b'abc').

List Git aliases

DateTimePicker: pick both date and time

Unfortunately, this is one of the many misnomers in the framework, or at best a violation of SRP.

To use the DateTimePicker for times, set the Format property to either Time or Custom (Use Custom if you want to control the format of the time using the CustomFormat property). Then set the ShowUpDown property to true.

Although a user may set the date and time together manually, they cannot use the GUI to set both.

What are the complexity guarantees of the standard containers?

I'm not aware of anything like a single table that lets you compare all of them in at one glance (I'm not sure such a table would even be feasible).

Of course the ISO standard document enumerates the complexity requirements in detail, sometimes in various rather readable tables, other times in less readable bullet points for each specific method.

Also the STL library reference at http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/stl/ provides the complexity requirements where appropriate.

JavaScript validation for empty input field

You can loop through each input after submiting and check if it's empty

let form = document.getElementById('yourform');

form.addEventListener("submit", function(e){ // event into anonymous function
  let ver = true;
  e.preventDefault(); //Prevent submit event from refreshing the page

  e.target.forEach(input => { // input is just a variable name, e.target is the form element
     if(input.length < 1){ // here you're looping through each input of the form and checking its length
         ver = false;
     }
  });

  if(!ver){
      return false;
  }else{
     //continue what you were doing :)
  } 
})

What is the best/simplest way to read in an XML file in Java application?

This is what I use. http://marketmovers.blogspot.com/2014/02/the-easy-way-to-read-xml-in-java.html It sits on top of the standard JDK tools, so if it's missing some feature you can always use the JDK version.

This really makes things easier for me. It's especially nice when I'm reading a config file that was saved by and older version of the software, or was manually edited by a user. It's very robust and won't throw an exception if some data is not exactly in the format you expect.

Show a div with Fancybox

I use approach with appending "singleton" link for element you want to show in fancybox. This is code, what I use with some minor edits:

function showElementInPopUp(elementId) {
    var fancyboxAnchorElementId = "fancyboxTriggerFor_" + elementId;
    if ($("#"+fancyboxAnchorElementId).length == 0) {
        $("body").append("<a id='" + fancyboxAnchorElementId + "' href='#" + elementId+ "' style='display:none;'></a>");
        $("#"+fancyboxAnchorElementId).fancybox();
    }

    $("#" + fancyboxAnchorElementId).click();
}

Additional explanation: If you show fancybox with "content" option, it will duplicate DOM, which is inside elements. Sometimes this is not OK. In my case I needed to have the same elements, because they were used in form.

What is the difference between json.dumps and json.load?

Django set default form values

If you are creating modelform from POST values initial can be assigned this way:

form = SomeModelForm(request.POST, initial={"option": "10"})

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.10/topics/forms/modelforms/#providing-initial-values

Can someone explain Microsoft Unity?

Unity is a library like many others that allows you to get an instance of a requested type without having to create it yourself. So given.

public interface ICalculator
{
    void Add(int a, int b);
}

public class Calculator : ICalculator
{
    public void Add(int a, int b)
    {
        return a + b;
    }
}

You would use a library like Unity to register Calculator to be returned when the type ICalculator is requested aka IoC (Inversion of Control) (this example is theoretical, not technically correct).

IoCLlibrary.Register<ICalculator>.Return<Calculator>();

So now when you want an instance of an ICalculator you just...

Calculator calc = IoCLibrary.Resolve<ICalculator>();

IoC libraries can usually be configured to either hold a singleton or create a new instance every time you resolve a type.

Now let's say you have a class that relies on an ICalculator to be present you could have..

public class BankingSystem
{
    public BankingSystem(ICalculator calc)
    {
        _calc = calc;
    }

    private ICalculator _calc;
}

And you can setup the library to inject a object into the constructor when it's created.

So DI or Dependency Injection means to inject any object another might require.

Finding median of list in Python

You can use the list.sort to avoid creating new lists with sorted and sort the lists in place.

Also you should not use list as a variable name as it shadows python's own list.

def median(l):
    half = len(l) // 2
    l.sort()
    if not len(l) % 2:
        return (l[half - 1] + l[half]) / 2.0
    return l[half]

UINavigationBar Hide back Button Text

You can add this Objective-C category to make all "Back" buttons created by a navigation controller have no text. I just added it to my AppDelegate.m file.

@implementation UINavigationItem (Customization)

/**
 Removes text from all default back buttons so only the arrow or custom image shows up.
 */
-(UIBarButtonItem *)backBarButtonItem
{
    return [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithTitle:@"" style:UIBarButtonItemStylePlain target:nil action:nil];
}

@end

PS - (I don't know how to make this extension work with Swift, it was having weird errors. Edits welcome to add a Swift version)

NSOperation vs Grand Central Dispatch

GCD is indeed lower-level than NSOperationQueue, its major advantage is that its implementation is very light-weight and focused on lock-free algorithms and performance.

NSOperationQueue does provide facilities that are not available in GCD, but they come at non-trivial cost, the implementation of NSOperationQueue is complex and heavy-weight, involves a lot of locking, and uses GCD internally only in a very minimal fashion.

If you need the facilities provided by NSOperationQueue by all means use it, but if GCD is sufficient for your needs, I would recommend using it directly for better performance, significantly lower CPU and power cost and more flexibility.

sort dict by value python

You could created sorted list from Values and rebuild the dictionary:

myDictionary={"two":"2", "one":"1", "five":"5", "1four":"4"}

newDictionary={}

sortedList=sorted(myDictionary.values())

for sortedKey in sortedList:
    for key, value in myDictionary.items():
        if value==sortedKey:
            newDictionary[key]=value

Output: newDictionary={'one': '1', 'two': '2', '1four': '4', 'five': '5'}

Invoking a static method using reflection

String methodName= "...";
String[] args = {};

Method[] methods = clazz.getMethods();
for (Method m : methods) {
    if (methodName.equals(m.getName())) {
        // for static methods we can use null as instance of class
        m.invoke(null, new Object[] {args});
        break;
    }
}

Difference between chr(13) and chr(10)

Chr(10) is the Line Feed character and Chr(13) is the Carriage Return character.

You probably won't notice a difference if you use only one or the other, but you might find yourself in a situation where the output doesn't show properly with only one or the other. So it's safer to include both.


Historically, Line Feed would move down a line but not return to column 1:

This  
    is  
        a  
            test.

Similarly Carriage Return would return to column 1 but not move down a line:

This  
is  
a  
test.

Paste this into a text editor and then choose to "show all characters", and you'll see both characters present at the end of each line. Better safe than sorry.

How can I remove the last character of a string in python?

You could use String.rstrip.

result = string.rstrip('/')

php check if array contains all array values from another array

Look at array_intersect().

$containsSearch = count(array_intersect($search_this, $all)) == count($search_this);

get data from mysql database to use in javascript

You can't do it with only Javascript. You'll need some server-side code (PHP, in your case) that serves as a proxy between the DB and the client-side code.

RS256 vs HS256: What's the difference?

There is a difference in performance.

Simply put HS256 is about 1 order of magnitude faster than RS256 for verification but about 2 orders of magnitude faster than RS256 for issuing (signing).

 640,251  91,464.3 ops/s
  86,123  12,303.3 ops/s (RS256 verify)
   7,046   1,006.5 ops/s (RS256 sign)

Don't get hung up on the actual numbers, just think of them with respect of each other.

How can I get a web site's favicon?

You can get the favicon URL from the website's HTML.

Here is the favicon element:

<link rel="icon" type="image/png" href="/someimage.png" />

You should use a regular expression here. If no tag found, look for favicon.ico in the site root directory. If nothing found, the site does not have a favicon.

How can I strip first and last double quotes?

If you can't assume that all the strings you process have double quotes you can use something like this:

if string.startswith('"') and string.endswith('"'):
    string = string[1:-1]

Edit:

I'm sure that you just used string as the variable name for exemplification here and in your real code it has a useful name, but I feel obliged to warn you that there is a module named string in the standard libraries. It's not loaded automatically, but if you ever use import string make sure your variable doesn't eclipse it.

How to request Location Permission at runtime

Location permission privacy change in Android 10 or Android Q.

We have to define additional ACCESS_BACKGROUND_LOCATION permission if user wants to access their current location in background so user needs to granted permission runtime also in requestPermission()

If we are using lower than Android 10 device then ACCESS_BACKGROUND_LOCATION permission allow automatically with ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION or ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION permission

This tabular format might be easy to understand what if we don't specify ACCESS_BACKGROUND_LOCATION in manifest file.

enter image description here

AndroidManifest.xml

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_BACKGROUND_LOCATION" /> // here we defined ACCESS_BACKGROUND_LOCATION for Android 10 device

Returning string from C function

Easier still: return a pointer to a string that's been malloc'd with strdup.

#include <ncurses.h>

char * getStr(int length)

    char word[length];

    for (int i = 0; i < length; i++)
    {
        word[i] = getch();
    }

    word[i] = '\0';
    return strdup(&word[0]);
}

int main()
{
    char wordd[10];
    initscr();
    *wordd = getStr(10);
    printw("The string is:\n");
    printw("%s\n",*wordd);
    getch();
    endwin();
    return 0;
}

How can I print the contents of an array horizontally?

foreach(var item in array)
Console.Write(item.ToString() + "\t");
