Unable to import a module that is definitely installed

I had a similar problem using Django. In my case, I could import the module from the Django shell, but not from a .py which imported the module.
The problem was that I was running the Django server (therefore, executing the .py) from a different virtualenv from which the module had been installed.

Instead, the shell instance was being run in the correct virtualenv. Hence, why it worked.

How to avoid HTTP error 429 (Too Many Requests) python

As MRA said, you shouldn't try to dodge a 429 Too Many Requests but instead handle it accordingly. You have several options depending on your use-case:

1) Sleep your process. The server usually includes a Retry-after header in the response with the number of seconds you are supposed to wait before retrying. Keep in mind that sleeping a process might cause problems, e.g. in a task queue, where you should instead retry the task at a later time to free up the worker for other things.

2) Exponential backoff. If the server does not tell you how long to wait, you can retry your request using increasing pauses in between. The popular task queue Celery has this feature built right-in.

3) Token bucket. This technique is useful if you know in advance how many requests you are able to make in a given time. Each time you access the API you first fetch a token from the bucket. The bucket is refilled at a constant rate. If the bucket is empty, you know you'll have to wait before hitting the API again. Token buckets are usually implemented on the other end (the API) but you can also use them as a proxy to avoid ever getting a 429 Too Many Requests. Celery's rate_limit feature uses a token bucket algorithm.

Here is an example of a Python/Celery app using exponential backoff and rate-limiting/token bucket:

class TooManyRequests(Exception):
"""Too many requests"""

@task(
   rate_limit='10/s',
   autoretry_for=(ConnectTimeout, TooManyRequests,),
   retry_backoff=True)
def api(*args, **kwargs):
  r = requests.get('placeholder-external-api')

  if r.status_code == 429:
    raise TooManyRequests()

How to install mechanize for Python 2.7?

You need to follow the installation instructions and not just download the files into your Python27 directory. It has to be installed in the site-packages directory properly, which the directions tell you how to do.

adding directory to sys.path /PYTHONPATH

When running a Python script from Powershell under Windows, this should work:

$pathToSourceRoot = "C:/Users/Steve/YourCode"
$env:PYTHONPATH = "$($pathToSourceRoot);$($pathToSourceRoot)/subdirs_if_required"

# Now run the actual script
python your_script.py

How to display image from database using php

put you $image in img tag of html

try this

echo '<img src="your_path_to_image/'.$image.'" />';

instead of

print $image;

your_path_to_image would be absolute path of your image folder like eg: /home/son/public_html/images/ or as your folder structure on server.

Update 2 :

if your image is resides in the same folder where this page file is exists
you can user this

echo '<img src="'.$image.'" />';

Reading a file line by line in Go

EDIT: As of go1.1, the idiomatic solution is to use bufio.Scanner

I wrote up a way to easily read each line from a file. The Readln(*bufio.Reader) function returns a line (sans \n) from the underlying bufio.Reader struct.

// Readln returns a single line (without the ending \n)
// from the input buffered reader.
// An error is returned iff there is an error with the
// buffered reader.
func Readln(r *bufio.Reader) (string, error) {
  var (isPrefix bool = true
       err error = nil
       line, ln []byte
      )
  for isPrefix && err == nil {
      line, isPrefix, err = r.ReadLine()
      ln = append(ln, line...)
  }
  return string(ln),err
}

You can use Readln to read every line from a file. The following code reads every line in a file and outputs each line to stdout.

f, err := os.Open(fi)
if err != nil {
    fmt.Printf("error opening file: %v\n",err)
    os.Exit(1)
}
r := bufio.NewReader(f)
s, e := Readln(r)
for e == nil {
    fmt.Println(s)
    s,e = Readln(r)
}

Cheers!

Adding one day to a date

While I agree with Doug Hays' answer, I'll chime in here to say that the reason your code doesn't work is because strtotime() expects an INT as the 2nd argument, not a string (even one that represents a date)

If you turn on max error reporting you'll see this as a "A non well formed numeric value" error which is E_NOTICE level.

Two models in one view in ASP MVC 3

I hope you find it helpfull !!

i use ViewBag For Project and Model for task so in this way i am using two model in single view and in controller i defined viewbag's value or data

Jackson Vs. Gson

I did this research the last week and I ended up with the same 2 libraries. As I'm using Spring 3 (that adopts Jackson in its default Json view 'JacksonJsonView') it was more natural for me to do the same. The 2 lib are pretty much the same... at the end they simply map to a json file! :)

Anyway as you said Jackson has a + in performance and that's very important for me. The project is also quite active as you can see from their web page and that's a very good sign as well.

Read file from resources folder in Spring Boot

See my answer here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/56854431/4453282

import org.springframework.core.io.Resource;
import org.springframework.core.io.ResourceLoader;

Use these 2 imports.

Declare

@Autowired
ResourceLoader resourceLoader;

Use this in some function

Resource resource=resourceLoader.getResource("classpath:preferences.json");

In your case, as you need the file you may use following

File file = resource.getFile()

Reference:http://frugalisminds.com/spring/load-file-classpath-spring-boot/ As already mentioned in previous answers don't use ResourceUtils it doesn't work after deployment of JAR, this will work in IDE as well as after deployment

Error: Tablespace for table xxx exists. Please DISCARD the tablespace before IMPORT

This is exactly what i did in mariadb 10.2.16 on fedora when i had a table that showed exactly the same errors in the log file i suppose...

2018-07-11  9:43:58 140323764213504 [Note] InnoDB: The file './database_name/innodb_table.ibd' already exists though the corresponding table did not exist in the InnoDB data dictionary. You can resolve the problem by removing the file.
2018-07-11  9:44:29 140323764213504 [Warning] InnoDB: Tablespace 'database_name/innodb_table' exists in the cache with id 2836 != 2918

your mileage and errors may vary but the main one i assume is

...already exists though the corresponding table did not exist in the InnoDB data dictionary...

with drop table not working as well as alter table...

MariaDB [database_name]> drop table innodb_table;
ERROR 1051 (42S02): Unknown table 'database_name.innodb_table'

MariaDB [database_name]> alter table innodb_table discard tablespace;
ERROR 1146 (42S02): Table 'database_name.innodb_table' doesn't exist

create table also fails like so:

MariaDB [database_name]> create table  innodb_table(`id` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL);
ERROR 1813 (HY000): Tablespace for table '`database_name`.`innodb_table`' exists. Please DISCARD the tablespace before IMPORT

in order to fix this, what i did was first

create table  innodb_table2(`id` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL);
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.07 sec)

then in the /var/lib/mysql/database_name directory i did the following as root acknowledging the overwriting of innodb_table.ibd causing us issues

cp -a innodb_table2.frm innodb_table.frm
cp -a innodb_table2.ibd innodb_table.ibd
systemctl restart mariadb

then back in the mysql console i issued a successful drop command on both tables

MariaDB [database_name]> drop table innodb_table;
ERROR 2006 (HY000): MySQL server has gone away
No connection. Trying to reconnect...
Connection id:    8
Current database: database_name

Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.08 sec)

MariaDB [database_name]> drop table innodb_table2;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.25 sec)

and everything is now all square and i can recreate the one single table...

MariaDB [database_name]> create table  innodb_table (`id` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL);
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.08 sec)

EDIT: I was going to add in a

restorecon -Rv /var/lib/mysql/database_name 

command after the copying of the database to get all selinux contexts the way they should be, even though we are deleting them from the database almost immediately, but in the alternative you could just add the --archive or -a option to the two cp commands, so yes actually the archive option shortens this:

cp innodb_table2.frm innodb_table.frm
cp innodb_table2.ibd innodb_table.ibd
chown mysql:mysql innodb_table.frm innodb_table.ibd
chmod 660 innodb_table.frm innodb_table.ibd
restorecon -Rv /var/lib/mysql/database_name
systemctl restart mariadb

to just the following which i think is better and it keeps the selinux context that is set for the already made table.

cp -a innodb_table2.frm innodb_table.frm
cp -a innodb_table2.ibd innodb_table.ibd
systemctl restart mariadb

I have replaced the above longer list of commands for the shorter list which could be shortened still with an *

Passing parameters on button action:@selector

To add to Tristan's answer, the button can also receive (id)event in addition to (id)sender:

- (IBAction) buttonTouchUpInside:(id)sender forEvent:(id)event { .... }

This can be useful if, for example, the button is in a cell in a UITableView and you want to find the indexPath of the button that was touched (although I suppose this can also be found via the sender element).

Returning Promises from Vuex actions

actions in Vuex are asynchronous. The only way to let the calling function (initiator of action) to know that an action is complete - is by returning a Promise and resolving it later.

Here is an example: myAction returns a Promise, makes a http call and resolves or rejects the Promise later - all asynchronously

actions: {
    myAction(context, data) {
        return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
            // Do something here... lets say, a http call using vue-resource
            this.$http("/api/something").then(response => {
                // http success, call the mutator and change something in state
                resolve(response);  // Let the calling function know that http is done. You may send some data back
            }, error => {
                // http failed, let the calling function know that action did not work out
                reject(error);
            })
        })
    }
}

Now, when your Vue component initiates myAction, it will get this Promise object and can know whether it succeeded or not. Here is some sample code for the Vue component:

export default {
    mounted: function() {
        // This component just got created. Lets fetch some data here using an action
        this.$store.dispatch("myAction").then(response => {
            console.log("Got some data, now lets show something in this component")
        }, error => {
            console.error("Got nothing from server. Prompt user to check internet connection and try again")
        })
    }
}

As you can see above, it is highly beneficial for actions to return a Promise. Otherwise there is no way for the action initiator to know what is happening and when things are stable enough to show something on the user interface.

And a last note regarding mutators - as you rightly pointed out, they are synchronous. They change stuff in the state, and are usually called from actions. There is no need to mix Promises with mutators, as the actions handle that part.

Edit: My views on the Vuex cycle of uni-directional data flow:

If you access data like this.$store.state["your data key"] in your components, then the data flow is uni-directional.

The promise from action is only to let the component know that action is complete.

The component may either take data from promise resolve function in the above example (not uni-directional, therefore not recommended), or directly from $store.state["your data key"] which is unidirectional and follows the vuex data lifecycle.

The above paragraph assumes your mutator uses Vue.set(state, "your data key", http_data), once the http call is completed in your action.

Core Data: Quickest way to delete all instances of an entity

For Swift 2.0:

class func clearCoreData(entity:String) {
  let fetchRequest = NSFetchRequest()
  fetchRequest.entity = NSEntityDescription.entityForName(entity, inManagedObjectContext: moc!)
  fetchRequest.includesPropertyValues = false
  do {
    if let results = try moc!.executeFetchRequest(fetchRequest) as? [NSManagedObject] {
      for result in results {
        moc!.deleteObject(result)
      }

      try moc!.save()
    }
  } catch {
    LOG.debug("failed to clear core data")
  }
}

How do I get an element to scroll into view, using jQuery?

After trying to find a solution that handled every circumstance (options for animating the scroll, padding around the object once it scrolls into view, works even in obscure circumstances such as in an iframe), I finally ended up writing my own solution to this. Since it seems to work when many other solutions failed, I thought I'd share it:

function scrollIntoViewIfNeeded($target, options) {

    var options = options ? options : {},
    $win = $($target[0].ownerDocument.defaultView), //get the window object of the $target, don't use "window" because the element could possibly be in a different iframe than the one calling the function
    $container = options.$container ? options.$container : $win,        
    padding = options.padding ? options.padding : 20,
    elemTop = $target.offset().top,
    elemHeight = $target.outerHeight(),
    containerTop = $container.scrollTop(),
    //Everything past this point is used only to get the container's visible height, which is needed to do this accurately
    containerHeight = $container.outerHeight(),
    winTop = $win.scrollTop(),
    winBot = winTop + $win.height(),
    containerVisibleTop = containerTop < winTop ? winTop : containerTop,
    containerVisibleBottom = containerTop + containerHeight > winBot ? winBot : containerTop + containerHeight,
    containerVisibleHeight = containerVisibleBottom - containerVisibleTop;

    if (elemTop < containerTop) {
        //scroll up
        if (options.instant) {
            $container.scrollTop(elemTop - padding);
        } else {
            $container.animate({scrollTop: elemTop - padding}, options.animationOptions);
        }
    } else if (elemTop + elemHeight > containerTop + containerVisibleHeight) {
        //scroll down
        if (options.instant) {
            $container.scrollTop(elemTop + elemHeight - containerVisibleHeight + padding);
        } else {
            $container.animate({scrollTop: elemTop + elemHeight - containerVisibleHeight + padding}, options.animationOptions);
        }
    }
}

$target is a jQuery object containing the object you wish to scroll into view if needed.

options (optional) can contain the following options passed in an object:

options.$container - a jQuery object pointing to the containing element of $target (in other words, the element in the dom with the scrollbars). Defaults to the window that contains the $target element and is smart enough to select an iframe window. Remember to include the $ in the property name.

options.padding - the padding in pixels to add above or below the object when it is scrolled into view. This way it is not right against the edge of the window. Defaults to 20.

options.instant - if set to true, jQuery animate will not be used and the scroll will instantly pop to the correct location. Defaults to false.

options.animationOptions - any jQuery options you wish to pass to the jQuery animate function (see http://api.jquery.com/animate/). With this, you can change the duration of the animation or have a callback function executed when the scrolling is complete. This only works if options.instant is set to false. If you need to have an instant animation but with a callback, set options.animationOptions.duration = 0 instead of using options.instant = true.

How to put an image in div with CSS?

you can do this:

<div class="picture1">&nbsp;</div>

and put this into your css file:

div.picture1 {
   width:100px; /*width of your image*/
   height:100px; /*height of your image*/
   background-image:url('yourimage.file');
   margin:0; /* If you want no margin */
   padding:0; /*if your want to padding */
}

otherwise, just use them as plain

In Powershell what is the idiomatic way of converting a string to an int?

I'd probably do something like that :

[int]::Parse("35")

But I'm not really a Powershell guy. It uses the static Parse method from System.Int32. It should throw an exception if the string can't be parsed.

Suppress output of a function

The following function should do what you want exactly:

hush=function(code){
  sink("NUL") # use /dev/null in UNIX
  tmp = code
  sink()
  return(tmp)
}

For example with the function here:

foo=function(){
  print("BAR!")
  return(42)
}

running

x = hush(foo())

Will assign 42 to x but will not print "BAR!" to STDOUT

Note than in a UNIX OS you will need to replace "NUL" with "/dev/null"

Is this the right way to clean-up Fragment back stack when leaving a deeply nested stack?

The other clean solution if you don't want to pop all stack entries...

getSupportFragmentManager().popBackStack(null, FragmentManager.POP_BACK_STACK_INCLUSIVE);
getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction().replace(R.id.home_activity_container, fragmentInstance).addToBackStack(null).commit();

This will clean the stack first and then load a new fragment, so at any given point you'll have only single fragment in stack

Compare and contrast REST and SOAP web services?

SOAP brings it’s own protocol and focuses on exposing pieces of application logic (not data) as services. SOAP exposes operations. SOAP is focused on accessing named operations, each implement some business logic through different interfaces.

Though SOAP is commonly referred to as “web services” this is a misnomer. SOAP has very little if anything to do with the Web. REST provides true “Web services” based on URIs and HTTP.

By way of illustration here are few calls and their appropriate home with commentary.

getUser(User);

This is a rest operation as you are accessing a resource (data).

switchCategory(User, OldCategory, NewCategory)

REST permits many different data formats where as SOAP only permits XML. While this may seem like it adds complexity to REST because you need to handle multiple formats, in my experience it has actually been quite beneficial. JSON usually is a better fit for data and parses much faster. REST allows better support for browser clients due to it’s support for JSON.

Classes vs. Modules in VB.NET

It is acceptable to use Module. Module is not used as a replacement for Class. Module serves its own purpose. The purpose of Module is to use as a container for

  • extension methods,
  • variables that are not specific to any Class, or
  • variables that do not fit properly in any Class.

Module is not like a Class since you cannot

  • inherit from a Module,
  • implement an Interface with a Module,
  • nor create an instance of a Module.

Anything inside a Module can be directly accessed within the Module assembly without referring to the Module by its name. By default, the access level for a Module is Friend.

PHPExcel - creating multiple sheets by iteration

In case you haven't come to a conclusion... I took Henrique's answer and gave a better logic solution. This is completely compatible with PHPSpreadSheet in case someone is using PHPSpreadSheet or PHPExcel.

$spreadOrPhpExcel = new SpreadSheet(); // or new PHPExcel();
print_in_sheet($spreadOrPhpExcel);

function print_in_sheet($spread)
{
    $sheet = 0;

    foreach( getData() as $report => $value ){
        # If number of sheet is 0 then no new worksheets are created
        if( $sheet > 0 ){
            $spread->createSheet();
        }

        # Index for the worksheet is setted and a title is assigned
        $wSheet = $spread->setActiveSheetIndex($sheet)->setTitle($report);

        # Printing data
        $wSheet->setCellValue("A1", "Hello World!");

        # Index number is incremented for the next worksheet
        $sheet++;
    }

    return $spread;
}

Referencing Row Number in R

This is probably the simplest way:

data$rownumber = 1:dim(data)[1]

It's probably worth noting that if you want to select a row by its row index, you can do this with simple bracket notation

data[3,]

vs.

data[data$rownumber==3,]

So I'm not really sure what this new column accomplishes.

How can I rebuild indexes and update stats in MySQL innoDB?

For basic cleanup and re-analyzing you can run "OPTIMIZE TABLE ...", it will compact out the overhead in the indexes and run ANALYZE TABLE too, but it's not going to re-sort them and make them as small & efficient as they could be.

https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/optimize-table.html

However, if you want the indexes completely rebuilt for best performance, you can:

  1. drop / re-add indexes (obviously)
  2. dump / reload the table
  3. ALTER TABLE and "change" using the same storage engine
  4. REPAIR TABLE (only works for MyISAM, ARCHIVE, and CSV)

https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/rebuilding-tables.html

If you do an ALTER TABLE on a field (that is part of an index) and change its type, then it will also fully rebuild the related index(es).

How to handle anchor hash linking in AngularJS

Based on @Stoyan I came up with the following solution:

app.run(function($location, $anchorScroll){
    var uri = window.location.href;

    if(uri.length >= 4){

        var parts = uri.split('#!#');
        if(parts.length > 1){
            var anchor = parts[parts.length -1];
            $location.hash(anchor);
            $anchorScroll();
        }
    }
});

How do I create a nice-looking DMG for Mac OS X using command-line tools?

For those of you that are interested in this topic, I should mention how I create the DMG:

hdiutil create XXX.dmg -volname "YYY" -fs HFS+ -srcfolder "ZZZ"

where

XXX == disk image file name (duh!)
YYY == window title displayed when DMG is opened
ZZZ == Path to a folder containing the files that will be copied into the DMG

Combining the results of two SQL queries as separate columns

You can use a CROSS JOIN:

SELECT *
FROM (  SELECT SUM(Fdays) AS fDaysSum 
        FROM tblFieldDays 
        WHERE tblFieldDays.NameCode=35 
        AND tblFieldDays.WeekEnding=1) A -- use you real query here
CROSS JOIN (SELECT SUM(CHdays) AS hrsSum 
            FROM tblChargeHours 
            WHERE tblChargeHours.NameCode=35 
            AND tblChargeHours.WeekEnding=1) B -- use you real query here

Regex to extract substring, returning 2 results for some reason

I've just had the same problem.

You only get the text twice in your result if you include a match group (in brackets) and the 'g' (global) modifier. The first item always is the first result, normally OK when using match(reg) on a short string, however when using a construct like:

while ((result = reg.exec(string)) !== null){
    console.log(result);
}

the results are a little different.

Try the following code:

var regEx = new RegExp('([0-9]+ (cat|fish))','g'), sampleString="1 cat and 2 fish";
var result = sample_string.match(regEx);
console.log(JSON.stringify(result));
// ["1 cat","2 fish"]

var reg = new RegExp('[0-9]+ (cat|fish)','g'), sampleString="1 cat and 2 fish";
while ((result = reg.exec(sampleString)) !== null) {
    console.dir(JSON.stringify(result))
};
// '["1 cat","cat"]'
// '["2 fish","fish"]'

var reg = new RegExp('([0-9]+ (cat|fish))','g'), sampleString="1 cat and 2 fish";
while ((result = reg.exec(sampleString)) !== null){
    console.dir(JSON.stringify(result))
};
// '["1 cat","1 cat","cat"]'
// '["2 fish","2 fish","fish"]'

How to make sure you don't get WCF Faulted state exception?


Update:

This linked answer describes a cleaner, simpler way of doing the same thing with C# syntax.


Original post

This is Microsoft's recommended way to handle WCF client calls:

For more detail see: Expected Exceptions

try
{
    ...
    double result = client.Add(value1, value2);
    ...
    client.Close();
}
catch (TimeoutException exception)
{
    Console.WriteLine("Got {0}", exception.GetType());
    client.Abort();
}
catch (CommunicationException exception)
{
    Console.WriteLine("Got {0}", exception.GetType());
    client.Abort();
}

Additional information

So many people seem to be asking this question on WCF that Microsoft even created a dedicated sample to demonstrate how to handle exceptions:

c:\WF_WCF_Samples\WCF\Basic\Client\ExpectedExceptions\CS\client

Download the sample: C# or VB

Considering that there are so many issues involving the using statement, (heated?) Internal discussions and threads on this issue, I'm not going to waste my time trying to become a code cowboy and find a cleaner way. I'll just suck it up, and implement WCF clients this verbose (yet trusted) way for my server applications.

Add a summary row with totals

If you are on SQL Server 2008 or later version, you can use the ROLLUP() GROUP BY function:

SELECT
  Type = ISNULL(Type, 'Total'),
  TotalSales = SUM(TotalSales)
FROM atable
GROUP BY ROLLUP(Type)
;

This assumes that the Type column cannot have NULLs and so the NULL in this query would indicate the rollup row, the one with the grand total. However, if the Type column can have NULLs of its own, the more proper type of accounting for the total row would be like in @Declan_K's answer, i.e. using the GROUPING() function:

SELECT
  Type = CASE GROUPING(Type) WHEN 1 THEN 'Total' ELSE Type END,
  TotalSales = SUM(TotalSales)
FROM atable
GROUP BY ROLLUP(Type)
;

How to create a new file in unix?

The command is lowercase: touch filename.

Keep in mind that touch will only create a new file if it does not exist! Here's some docs for good measure: http://unixhelp.ed.ac.uk/CGI/man-cgi?touch

If you always want an empty file, one way to do so would be to use:

echo "" > filename

How to check whether the user uploaded a file in PHP?

I checked your code and think you should try this:

if(!file_exists($_FILES['fileupload']['tmp_name']) || !is_uploaded_file($_FILES['fileupload']['tmp_name'])) 
    {
        echo 'No upload';
    }   
    else
        echo 'upload';

IF... OR IF... in a windows batch file

There is no IF <arg> OR or ELIF or ELSE IF in Batch, however...

Try nesting the other IF's inside the ELSE of the previous IF.

IF <arg> (
    ....
) ELSE (
    IF <arg> (
        ......
    ) ELSE (
        IF <arg> (
            ....
        ) ELSE (
    )
)

Angular2 - Http POST request parameters

I was having problems with every approach using multiple parameters, but it works quite well with single object

api:

    [HttpPut]
    [Route("addfeeratevalue")]
    public object AddFeeRateValue(MyValeObject val)

angular:

var o = {ID:rateId, AMOUNT_TO: amountTo, VALUE: value};
return this.http.put('/api/ctrl/mymethod', JSON.stringify(o), this.getPutHeaders());


private getPutHeaders(){
    let headers = new Headers();
    headers.append('Content-Type', 'application/json');
    return new RequestOptions({
        headers: headers
        , withCredentials: true // optional when using windows auth
    });
}

Received fatal alert: handshake_failure through SSLHandshakeException

I meet the same problem today with OkHttp client to GET a https based url. It was caused by Https protocol version and Cipher method mismatch between server side and client side.

1) check your website https Protocol version and Cipher method.

openssl>s_client -connect your_website.com:443 -showcerts

You will get many detail info, the key info is listed as follows:

SSL-Session:
    Protocol  : TLSv1
    Cipher    : RC4-SHA
2) config your http client, for example, in OkHttp client case:
@Test()
public void testHttpsByOkHttp() {
    ConnectionSpec spec = new ConnectionSpec.Builder(ConnectionSpec.MODERN_TLS)
            .tlsVersions(TlsVersion.TLS_1_0) //protocol version
            .cipherSuites(
                    CipherSuite.TLS_RSA_WITH_RC4_128_SHA, //cipher method
                    CipherSuite.TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256,
                    CipherSuite.TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256,
                    CipherSuite.TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256)
            .build();

    OkHttpClient client = new OkHttpClient();
    client.setConnectionSpecs(Collections.singletonList(spec));
    Request request = new Request.Builder().url("https://your_website.com/").build();
    try {
        Response response = client.newCall(request).execute();
        if(response.isSuccessful()){
            logger.debug("result= {}", response.body().string());
        }
    } catch (IOException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
}

This will get what we want.

Simple http post example in Objective-C?

Here i'm adding sample code for http post print response and parsing as JSON if possible, it will handle everything async so your GUI will be refreshing just fine and will not freeze at all - which is important to notice.

}];

Hope this helps!

Checking if a textbox is empty in Javascript

onchange will work only if the value of the textbox changed compared to the value it had before, so for the first time it won't work because the state didn't change.

So it is better to use onblur event or on submitting the form.

_x000D_
_x000D_
function checkTextField(field) {_x000D_
  document.getElementById("error").innerText =_x000D_
    (field.value === "") ? "Field is empty." : "Field is filled.";_x000D_
}
_x000D_
<input type="text" onblur="checkTextField(this);" />_x000D_
<p id="error"></p>
_x000D_
_x000D_
_x000D_

How to read the output from git diff?

Here's the simple example.

  • --git is not a command, this means it's a git version of diff (not unix)
  • a/ b/ are directories, they are not real. it's just a convenience when we deal with the same file (in my case a/ is in index and b/ is in working directory)
  • 10ff2df..84d4fa2 are blob IDs of these 2 files
  • 100644 is the “mode bits,” indicating that this is a regular file (not executable and not a symbolic link)
  • --- a/file +++ b/file minus signs shows lines in the a/ version but missing from the b/ version; and plus signs shows lines missing in a/ but present in b/ (in my case --- means deleted lines and +++ means added lines in b/ and this the file in the working directory)

Singleton: How should it be used

I think this is the most robust version for C#:

using System;
using System.Collections;
using System.Threading;

namespace DoFactory.GangOfFour.Singleton.RealWorld
{

  // MainApp test application

  class MainApp
  {
    static void Main()
    {
      LoadBalancer b1 = LoadBalancer.GetLoadBalancer();
      LoadBalancer b2 = LoadBalancer.GetLoadBalancer();
      LoadBalancer b3 = LoadBalancer.GetLoadBalancer();
      LoadBalancer b4 = LoadBalancer.GetLoadBalancer();

      // Same instance?
      if (b1 == b2 && b2 == b3 && b3 == b4)
      {
        Console.WriteLine("Same instance\n");
      }

      // All are the same instance -- use b1 arbitrarily
      // Load balance 15 server requests
      for (int i = 0; i < 15; i++)
      {
        Console.WriteLine(b1.Server);
      }

      // Wait for user
      Console.Read();    
    }
  }

  // "Singleton"

  class LoadBalancer
  {
    private static LoadBalancer instance;
    private ArrayList servers = new ArrayList();

    private Random random = new Random();

    // Lock synchronization object
    private static object syncLock = new object();

    // Constructor (protected)
    protected LoadBalancer()
    {
      // List of available servers
      servers.Add("ServerI");
      servers.Add("ServerII");
      servers.Add("ServerIII");
      servers.Add("ServerIV");
      servers.Add("ServerV");
    }

    public static LoadBalancer GetLoadBalancer()
    {
      // Support multithreaded applications through
      // 'Double checked locking' pattern which (once
      // the instance exists) avoids locking each
      // time the method is invoked
      if (instance == null)
      {
        lock (syncLock)
        {
          if (instance == null)
          {
            instance = new LoadBalancer();
          }
        }
      }

      return instance;
    }

    // Simple, but effective random load balancer

    public string Server
    {
      get
      {
        int r = random.Next(servers.Count);
        return servers[r].ToString();
      }
    }
  }
}

Here is the .NET-optimised version:

using System;
using System.Collections;

namespace DoFactory.GangOfFour.Singleton.NETOptimized
{

  // MainApp test application

  class MainApp
  {

    static void Main()
    {
      LoadBalancer b1 = LoadBalancer.GetLoadBalancer();
      LoadBalancer b2 = LoadBalancer.GetLoadBalancer();
      LoadBalancer b3 = LoadBalancer.GetLoadBalancer();
      LoadBalancer b4 = LoadBalancer.GetLoadBalancer();

      // Confirm these are the same instance
      if (b1 == b2 && b2 == b3 && b3 == b4)
      {
        Console.WriteLine("Same instance\n");
      }

      // All are the same instance -- use b1 arbitrarily
      // Load balance 15 requests for a server
      for (int i = 0; i < 15; i++)
      {
        Console.WriteLine(b1.Server);
      }

      // Wait for user
      Console.Read();    
    }
  }

  // Singleton

  sealed class LoadBalancer
  {
    // Static members are lazily initialized.
    // .NET guarantees thread safety for static initialization
    private static readonly LoadBalancer instance =
      new LoadBalancer();

    private ArrayList servers = new ArrayList();
    private Random random = new Random();

    // Note: constructor is private.
    private LoadBalancer()
    {
      // List of available servers
      servers.Add("ServerI");
      servers.Add("ServerII");
      servers.Add("ServerIII");
      servers.Add("ServerIV");
      servers.Add("ServerV");
    }

    public static LoadBalancer GetLoadBalancer()
    {
      return instance;
    }

    // Simple, but effective load balancer
    public string Server
    {
      get
      {
        int r = random.Next(servers.Count);
        return servers[r].ToString();
      }
    }
  }
}

Python pandas Filtering out nan from a data selection of a column of strings

Just drop them:

nms.dropna(thresh=2)

this will drop all rows where there are at least two non-NaN.

Then you could then drop where name is NaN:

In [87]:

nms
Out[87]:
  movie    name  rating
0   thg    John       3
1   thg     NaN       4
3   mol  Graham     NaN
4   lob     NaN     NaN
5   lob     NaN     NaN

[5 rows x 3 columns]
In [89]:

nms = nms.dropna(thresh=2)
In [90]:

nms[nms.name.notnull()]
Out[90]:
  movie    name  rating
0   thg    John       3
3   mol  Graham     NaN

[2 rows x 3 columns]

EDIT

Actually looking at what you originally want you can do just this without the dropna call:

nms[nms.name.notnull()]

UPDATE

Looking at this question 3 years later, there is a mistake, firstly thresh arg looks for at least n non-NaN values so in fact the output should be:

In [4]:
nms.dropna(thresh=2)

Out[4]:
  movie    name  rating
0   thg    John     3.0
1   thg     NaN     4.0
3   mol  Graham     NaN

It's possible that I was either mistaken 3 years ago or that the version of pandas I was running had a bug, both scenarios are entirely possible.

How to upload and parse a CSV file in php

Although you could easily find a tutorial how to handle file uploads with php, and there are functions (manual) to handle CSVs, I will post some code because just a few days ago I worked on a project, including a bit of code you could use...

HTML:

<table width="600">
<form action="<?php echo $_SERVER["PHP_SELF"]; ?>" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">

<tr>
<td width="20%">Select file</td>
<td width="80%"><input type="file" name="file" id="file" /></td>
</tr>

<tr>
<td>Submit</td>
<td><input type="submit" name="submit" /></td>
</tr>

</form>
</table>

PHP:

if ( isset($_POST["submit"]) ) {

   if ( isset($_FILES["file"])) {

            //if there was an error uploading the file
        if ($_FILES["file"]["error"] > 0) {
            echo "Return Code: " . $_FILES["file"]["error"] . "<br />";

        }
        else {
                 //Print file details
             echo "Upload: " . $_FILES["file"]["name"] . "<br />";
             echo "Type: " . $_FILES["file"]["type"] . "<br />";
             echo "Size: " . ($_FILES["file"]["size"] / 1024) . " Kb<br />";
             echo "Temp file: " . $_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"] . "<br />";

                 //if file already exists
             if (file_exists("upload/" . $_FILES["file"]["name"])) {
            echo $_FILES["file"]["name"] . " already exists. ";
             }
             else {
                    //Store file in directory "upload" with the name of "uploaded_file.txt"
            $storagename = "uploaded_file.txt";
            move_uploaded_file($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"], "upload/" . $storagename);
            echo "Stored in: " . "upload/" . $_FILES["file"]["name"] . "<br />";
            }
        }
     } else {
             echo "No file selected <br />";
     }
}

I know there must be an easier way to do this, but I read the CSV file and store the single cells of every record in an two dimensional array.

if ( isset($storagename) && $file = fopen( "upload/" . $storagename , r ) ) {

    echo "File opened.<br />";

    $firstline = fgets ($file, 4096 );
        //Gets the number of fields, in CSV-files the names of the fields are mostly given in the first line
    $num = strlen($firstline) - strlen(str_replace(";", "", $firstline));

        //save the different fields of the firstline in an array called fields
    $fields = array();
    $fields = explode( ";", $firstline, ($num+1) );

    $line = array();
    $i = 0;

        //CSV: one line is one record and the cells/fields are seperated by ";"
        //so $dsatz is an two dimensional array saving the records like this: $dsatz[number of record][number of cell]
    while ( $line[$i] = fgets ($file, 4096) ) {

        $dsatz[$i] = array();
        $dsatz[$i] = explode( ";", $line[$i], ($num+1) );

        $i++;
    }

        echo "<table>";
        echo "<tr>";
    for ( $k = 0; $k != ($num+1); $k++ ) {
        echo "<td>" . $fields[$k] . "</td>";
    }
        echo "</tr>";

    foreach ($dsatz as $key => $number) {
                //new table row for every record
        echo "<tr>";
        foreach ($number as $k => $content) {
                        //new table cell for every field of the record
            echo "<td>" . $content . "</td>";
        }
    }

    echo "</table>";
}

So I hope this will help, it is just a small snippet of code and I have not tested it, because I used it slightly different. The comments should explain everything.

How to get the concrete class name as a string?

 instance.__class__.__name__

example:

>>> class A():
    pass
>>> a = A()
>>> a.__class__.__name__
'A'

Java null check why use == instead of .equals()

if you invoke .equals() on null you will get NullPointerException

So it is always advisble to check nullity before invoking method where ever it applies

if(str!=null && str.equals("hi")){
 //str contains hi
}

PHP Parse HTML code

Use PHP Document Object Model:

<?php
   $str = '<h1>T1</h1>Lorem ipsum.<h1>T2</h1>The quick red fox...<h1>T3</h1>... jumps over the lazy brown FROG';
   $DOM = new DOMDocument;
   $DOM->loadHTML($str);

   //get all H1
   $items = $DOM->getElementsByTagName('h1');

   //display all H1 text
   for ($i = 0; $i < $items->length; $i++)
        echo $items->item($i)->nodeValue . "<br/>";
?>

This outputs as:

 T1
 T2
 T3

[EDIT]: After OP Clarification:

If you want the content like Lorem ipsum. etc, you can directly use this regex:

<?php
   $str = '<h1>T1</h1>Lorem ipsum.<h1>T2</h1>The quick red fox...<h1>T3</h1>... jumps over the lazy brown FROG';
   echo preg_replace("#<h1.*?>.*?</h1>#", "", $str);
?>

this outputs:

Lorem ipsum.The quick red fox...... jumps over the lazy brown FROG

No module named _sqlite3

I was disappointed this issue still exist till today. As I have recently been trying to install vCD CLI on CentOS 8.1 and I was welcomed with the same error when tried to run it. The way I had to resolve it in my case is as follow:

  • Install SQLite3 from scratch with the proper prefix
  • Make clean my Python Installation
  • Run Make install to reinstall Python

As I have been doing this to create a different blogpost about how to install vCD CLI and VMware Container Service Extension. I have end up capturing the steps I used to fix the issue and put it in a separate blog post at:

http://www.virtualizationteam.com/cloud/running-vcd-cli-fail-with-the-following-error-modulenotfounderror-no-module-named-_sqlite3.html

I hope this helpful, as while the tips above had helped me get to a solution, I had to combine few of them and modify them a bit.

    @Input()
    public first: string;

    @Input()
    public second: string;

    ngAfterViewInit(): void {
       console.log(`Values: ${this.first}, ${this.second}`);
    }
}

And this directive can be used like that:

<app-someKindOfComponent>
    <app-directive [first]="'first 1'" [second]="'second 1'">A</app-directive>
    <app-directive [first]="'First 2'" [second]="'second 2'">B</app-directive>
    <app-directive [first]="'First 3'" [second]="'second 3'">C</app-directive>
</app-someKindOfComponent>`

Simple, neat and powerful.

When should you use a class vs a struct in C++?

As every one says, the only real difference is the default access. But I particularly use struct when I don't want any sort of encapsulation with a simple data class, even if I implement some helper methods. For instance, when I need something like this:

struct myvec {
    int x;
    int y;
    int z;

    int length() {return x+y+z;}
};

How do I style (css) radio buttons and labels?

This will get your buttons and labels next to each other, at least. I believe the second part can't be done in css alone, and will need javascript. I found a page that might help you with that part as well, but I don't have time right now to try it out: http://www.webmasterworld.com/forum83/6942.htm

<style type="text/css">
.input input {
  float: left;
}
.input label {
  margin: 5px;
}
</style>
<div class="input radio">
    <fieldset>
        <legend>What color is the sky?</legend>
        <input type="hidden" name="data[Submit][question]" value="" id="SubmitQuestion" />

        <input type="radio" name="data[Submit][question]" id="SubmitQuestion1" value="1"  />
        <label for="SubmitQuestion1">A strange radient green.</label>

        <input type="radio" name="data[Submit][question]" id="SubmitQuestion2" value="2"  />
        <label for="SubmitQuestion2">A dark gloomy orange</label>
        <input type="radio" name="data[Submit][question]" id="SubmitQuestion3" value="3"  />
        <label for="SubmitQuestion3">A perfect glittering blue</label>
    </fieldset>

How can I use modulo operator (%) in JavaScript?

That would be the modulo operator, which produces the remainder of the division of two numbers.

How to select element using XPATH syntax on Selenium for Python?

HTML

<div id='a'>
  <div>
    <a class='click'>abc</a>
  </div>
</div>

You could use the XPATH as :

//div[@id='a']//a[@class='click']

output

<a class="click">abc</a>

That said your Python code should be as :

driver.find_element_by_xpath("//div[@id='a']//a[@class='click']")

How to put a Scanner input into an array... for example a couple of numbers

You could try something like this:

public static void main (String[] args)
{
    Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
    double[] numbers = new double[5];

    for (int i = 0; i < numbers.length; i++)
    {
        System.out.println("Please enter number");
        numbers[i] = input.nextDouble();
    }
}

It seems pretty basic stuff unless I am misunderstanding you

Using ListView : How to add a header view?

You can add as many headers as you like by calling addHeaderView() multiple times. You have to do it before setting the adapter to the list view.

And yes you can add header something like this way:

LayoutInflater inflater = getLayoutInflater();
ViewGroup header = (ViewGroup)inflater.inflate(R.layout.header, myListView, false);
myListView.addHeaderView(header, null, false);

How to validate a date?

This solution does not address obvious date validations such as making sure date parts are integers or that date parts comply with obvious validation checks such as the day being greater than 0 and less than 32. This solution assumes that you already have all three date parts (year, month, day) and that each already passes obvious validations. Given these assumptions this method should work for simply checking if the date exists.

For example February 29, 2009 is not a real date but February 29, 2008 is. When you create a new Date object such as February 29, 2009 look what happens (Remember that months start at zero in JavaScript):

console.log(new Date(2009, 1, 29));

The above line outputs: Sun Mar 01 2009 00:00:00 GMT-0800 (PST)

Notice how the date simply gets rolled to the first day of the next month. Assuming you have the other, obvious validations in place, this information can be used to determine if a date is real with the following function (This function allows for non-zero based months for a more convenient input):

var isActualDate = function (month, day, year) {
    var tempDate = new Date(year, --month, day);
    return month === tempDate.getMonth();
};

This isn't a complete solution and doesn't take i18n into account but it could be made more robust.

Using :before and :after CSS selector to insert Html

content doesn't support HTML, only text. You should probably use javascript, jQuery or something like that.

Another problem with your code is " inside a " block. You should mix ' and " (class='headingDetail').

If content did support HTML you could end up in an infinite loop where content is added inside content.

How to restart a windows service using Task Scheduler

Instead of using a bat file, you can simply create a Scheduled Task. Most of the time you define just one action. In this case, create two actions with the NET command. The first one to stop the service, the second one to start the service. Give them a STOP and START argument, followed by the service name.

In this example we restart the Printer Spooler service.

NET STOP "Print Spooler" 
NET START "Print Spooler"

enter image description here

enter image description here

Note: unfortunately NET RESTART <service name> does not exist.

How do I use cx_freeze?

  • Add import sys as the new topline
  • You misspelled "executables" on the last line.
  • Remove script = on last line.

The code should now look like:

import sys
from cx_Freeze import setup, Executable

setup(
    name = "On Dijkstra's Algorithm",
    version = "3.1",
    description = "A Dijkstra's Algorithm help tool.",
    executables = [Executable("Main.py", base = "Win32GUI")])

Use the command prompt (cmd) to run python setup.py build. (Run this command from the folder containing setup.py.) Notice the build parameter we added at the end of the script call.

Differences between time complexity and space complexity?

The time and space complexities are not related to each other. They are used to describe how much space/time your algorithm takes based on the input.

  • For example when the algorithm has space complexity of:

    • O(1) - constant - the algorithm uses a fixed (small) amount of space which doesn't depend on the input. For every size of the input the algorithm will take the same (constant) amount of space. This is the case in your example as the input is not taken into account and what matters is the time/space of the print command.
    • O(n), O(n^2), O(log(n))... - these indicate that you create additional objects based on the length of your input. For example creating a copy of each object of v storing it in an array and printing it after that takes O(n) space as you create n additional objects.
  • In contrast the time complexity describes how much time your algorithm consumes based on the length of the input. Again:

    • O(1) - no matter how big is the input it always takes a constant time - for example only one instruction. Like

      function(list l) {
          print("i got a list");
      }
      
    • O(n), O(n^2), O(log(n)) - again it's based on the length of the input. For example

      function(list l) {
           for (node in l) {
              print(node);
          }
      }
      

Note that both last examples take O(1) space as you don't create anything. Compare them to

function(list l) {
    list c;
    for (node in l) {
        c.add(node);
    }
}

which takes O(n) space because you create a new list whose size depends on the size of the input in linear way.

Your example shows that time and space complexity might be different. It takes v.length * print.time to print all the elements. But the space is always the same - O(1) because you don't create additional objects. So, yes, it is possible that an algorithm has different time and space complexity, as they are not dependent on each other.

Which equals operator (== vs ===) should be used in JavaScript comparisons?

First, some terminology about Javascript string equals: Double equals is officially known as the abstract equality comparison operator while triple equals is termed the strict equality comparison operator. The difference between them can be summed up as follows: Abstract equality will attempt to resolve the data types via type coercion before making a comparison. Strict equality will return false if the types are different. Consider the following example:

console.log(3 == "3"); // true
console.log(3 === "3"); // false.
console.log(3 == "3"); // true
console.log(3 === "3"); // false.

Using two equal signs returns true because the string “3” is converted to the number 3 before the comparison is made. Three equal signs sees that the types are different and returns false. Here’s another:

console.log(true == '1'); // true
console.log(true === '1'); // false
console.log(true == '1'); // true
console.log(true === '1'); // false

Again, the abstract equality comparison performs a type conversion. In this case both the boolean true and the string ‘1’ are converted to the number 1 and the result is true. Strict equality returns false.

If you understand that you are well on your way to distinguishing between == and ===. However, there’s some scenarios where the behavior of these operators is non intuitive. Let’s take a look at some more examples:

console.log(undefined == null); // true
console.log(undefined === null); // false. Undefined and null are distinct types and are not interchangeable.
console.log(undefined == null); // true     
console.log(undefined === null); // false. Undefined and null are distinct types and are not interchangeable.

console.log(true == 'true'); // false. A string will not be converted to a boolean and vice versa.
console.log(true === 'true'); // false
console.log(true == 'true'); // false. A string will not be converted to a boolean and vice versa.
console.log(true === 'true'); // false

The example below is interesting because it illustrates that string literals are different from string objects.

console.log("This is a string." == new String("This is a string.")); // true
console.log("This is a string." === new String("This is a string.")); // false
console.log("This is a string." == new String("This is a string.")); // true
console.log("This is a string." === new String("This is a string.")); // false

How to restrict the selectable date ranges in Bootstrap Datepicker?

The Bootstrap datepicker is able to set date-range. But it is not available in the initial release/Master Branch. Check the branch as 'range' there (or just see at https://github.com/eternicode/bootstrap-datepicker), you can do it simply with startDate and endDate.

Example:

$('#datepicker').datepicker({
    startDate: '-2m',
    endDate: '+2d'
});

IF EXISTS in T-SQL

Yes it stops execution so this is generally preferable to HAVING COUNT(*) > 0 which often won't.

With EXISTS if you look at the execution plan you will see that the actual number of rows coming out of table1 will not be more than 1 irrespective of number of matching records.

In some circumstances SQL Server can convert the tree for the COUNT query to the same as the one for EXISTS during the simplification phase (with a semi join and no aggregate operator in sight) an example of that is discussed in the comments here.

For more complicated sub trees than shown in the question you may occasionally find the COUNT performs better than EXISTS however. Because the semi join needs only retrieve one row from the sub tree this can encourage a plan with nested loops for that part of the tree - which may not work out optimal in practice.

Python's most efficient way to choose longest string in list?

len(each) == max(len(x) for x in myList) or just each == max(myList, key=len)

Dots in URL causes 404 with ASP.NET mvc and IIS

Depending on how important it is for you to keep your URI without querystrings, you can also just pass the value with dots as part of the querystring, not the URI.

E.g. www.example.com/people?name=michael.phelps will work, without having to change any settings or anything.

You lose the elegance of having a clean URI, but this solution does not require changing or adding any settings or handlers.

Regex Last occurrence?

You can try anchoring it to the end of the string, something like \\[^\\]*$. Though I'm not sure if one absolutely has to use regexp for the task.

How do I drop a foreign key in SQL Server?

This will work:

TypeError: Cannot read property "0" from undefined

Looks like what you're trying to do is access property '0' of an undefined value in your 'data' array. If you look at your while statement, it appears this is happening because you are incrementing 'i' by 1 for each loop. Thus, the first time through, you will access, 'data[1]', but on the next loop, you'll access 'data[2]' and so on and so forth, regardless of the length of the array. This will cause you to eventually hit an array element which is undefined, if you never find an item in your array with property '0' which is equal to 'name'.

Ammend your while statement to this...

for(var iIndex = 1; iIndex <= data.length; iIndex++){
    if (data[iIndex][0] === name){
         break;
    };
    Logger.log(data[i][0]);
 };

How to implement a Map with multiple keys?

See Google Collections. Or, as you suggest, use a map internally, and have that map use a Pair. You'll have to write or find Pair<>; it's pretty easy but not part of the standard Collections.

adb command not found in linux environment

adb is in android-sdks/tools directory. You simply type this command: adb logcat.

If you want to your stack traces in a text file use this command: adb logcat > trace.txt. Now your traces are copied into that file.

If it is not working then go to android-sdks/platform-tools then put this command: ./adb logcat > trace.txt. Hope it will helps to you.

What are the differences between using the terminal on a mac vs linux?

If you did a new or clean install of OS X version 10.3 or more recent, the default user terminal shell is bash.

Bash is essentially an enhanced and GNU freeware version of the original Bourne shell, sh. If you have previous experience with bash (often the default on GNU/Linux installations), this makes the OS X command-line experience familiar, otherwise consider switching your shell either to tcsh or to zsh, as some find these more user-friendly.

If you upgraded from or use OS X version 10.2.x, 10.1.x or 10.0.x, the default user shell is tcsh, an enhanced version of csh('c-shell'). Early implementations were a bit buggy and the programming syntax a bit weird so it developed a bad rap.

There are still some fundamental differences between mac and linux as Gordon Davisson so aptly lists, for example no useradd on Mac and ifconfig works differently.

The following table is useful for knowing the various unix shells.

sh      The original Bourne shell   Present on every unix system 
ksh     Original Korn shell         Richer shell programming environment than sh 
csh     Original C-shell            C-like syntax; early versions buggy 
tcsh    Enhanced C-shell            User-friendly and less buggy csh implementation 
bash    GNU Bourne-again shell      Enhanced and free sh implementation 
zsh     Z shell                     Enhanced, user-friendly ksh-like shell

On a final note, I am on Linux (Ubuntu 11) and Mac osX so I use bash and the thing I like the most is customizing the .bashrc (source'd from .bash_profile on OSX) file with aliases, some examples below. I now placed all my aliases in a separate .bash_aliases file and include it with:

if [ -f ~/.bash_aliases ]; then
    . ~/.bash_aliases
fi

in the .bashrc or .bash_profile file.

Note that this is an example of a mac-linux difference because on a Mac you can't have the --color=auto. The first time I did this (without knowing) I redefined ls to be invalid which was a bit alarming until I removed --auto-color !

jQuery UI Dialog with ASP.NET button postback

The solution from Robert MacLean with highest number of votes is 99% correct. But the only addition someone might require, as I did, is whenever you need to open up this jQuery dialog, do not forget to append it to parent. Like below:

var dlg = $('#questionPopup').dialog( 'open'); dlg.parent().appendTo($("form:first"));

"ssl module in Python is not available" when installing package with pip3

I was able to fix this by updating the python version in this file. pyenv: version `3.6.5' is not installed (set by /Users/taruntarun/.python-version) Though i had the latest version installed, my command was still using old version 3.6.5

Moving to version 3.7.3

What's the difference between .so, .la and .a library files?

.so files are dynamic libraries. The suffix stands for "shared object", because all the applications that are linked with the library use the same file, rather than making a copy in the resulting executable.

.a files are static libraries. The suffix stands for "archive", because they're actually just an archive (made with the ar command -- a predecessor of tar that's now just used for making libraries) of the original .o object files.

.la files are text files used by the GNU "libtools" package to describe the files that make up the corresponding library. You can find more information about them in this question: What are libtool's .la file for?

Static and dynamic libraries each have pros and cons.

Static pro: The user always uses the version of the library that you've tested with your application, so there shouldn't be any surprising compatibility problems.

Static con: If a problem is fixed in a library, you need to redistribute your application to take advantage of it. However, unless it's a library that users are likely to update on their own, you'd might need to do this anyway.

Dynamic pro: Your process's memory footprint is smaller, because the memory used for the library is amortized among all the processes using the library.

Dynamic pro: Libraries can be loaded on demand at run time; this is good for plugins, so you don't have to choose the plugins to be used when compiling and installing the software. New plugins can be added on the fly.

Dynamic con: The library might not exist on the system where someone is trying to install the application, or they might have a version that's not compatible with the application. To mitigate this, the application package might need to include a copy of the library, so it can install it if necessary. This is also often mitigated by package managers, which can download and install any necessary dependencies.

Dynamic con: Link-Time Optimization is generally not possible, so there could possibly be efficiency implications in high-performance applications. See the Wikipedia discussion of WPO and LTO.

Dynamic libraries are especially useful for system libraries, like libc. These libraries often need to include code that's dependent on the specific OS and version, because kernel interfaces have changed. If you link a program with a static system library, it will only run on the version of the OS that this library version was written for. But if you use a dynamic library, it will automatically pick up the library that's installed on the system you run on.

How can I make PHP display the error instead of giving me 500 Internal Server Error

If all else fails try moving (i.e. in bash) all files and directories "away" and adding them back one by one.

I just found out that way that my .htaccess file was referencing a non-existant .htpasswd file. (#silly)

How can I kill a process by name instead of PID?

To kill with grep:

kill -9 `pgrep myprocess`

SyntaxError: multiple statements found while compiling a single statement

In the shell, you can't execute more than one statement at a time:

>>> x = 5
y = 6
SyntaxError: multiple statements found while compiling a single statement

You need to execute them one by one:

>>> x = 5
>>> y = 6
>>>

When you see multiple statements are being declared, that means you're seeing a script, which will be executed later. But in the interactive interpreter, you can't do more than one statement at a time.

Formatting a Date String in React Native

The Date constructor is very picky about what it allows. The string you pass in must be supported by Date.parse(), and if it is unsupported, it will return NaN. Different versions of JavaScript do support different formats, if those formats deviate from the official ISO documentation.

See the examples here for what is supported: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Date/parse

How do I prevent Conda from activating the base environment by default?

I have conda 4.6 with a similar block of code that was added by conda. In my case, there's a conda configuration setting to disable the automatic base activation:

conda config --set auto_activate_base false

The first time you run it, it'll create a ./condarc in your home directory with that setting to override the default.

This wouldn't de-clutter your .bash_profile but it's a cleaner solution without manual editing that section that conda manages.

Equivalent of .bat in mac os

I found some useful information in a forum page, quoted below.
From this, mainly the sentences in bold formatting, my answer is:

  • Make a bash (shell) script version of your .bat file (like other
    answers, with \ changed to / in file paths). For example:

    # File "example.command":
    #!/bin/bash
    java -cp  ".;./supportlibraries/Framework_Core.jar; ...etc.
    
  • Then rename it to have the Mac OS file extension .command.
    That should make the script run using the Terminal app.

  • If the app user is going to use a bash script version of the file on Linux
    or run it from the command line, they need to add executable rights
    (change mode bits) using this command, in the folder that has the file:

    chmod +rx [filename].sh
    #or:# chmod +rx [filename].command
    

The forum page question:

Good day, [...] I wondering if there are some "simple" rules to write an equivalent
of the Windows (DOS) bat file. I would like just to click on a file and let it run.

Info from some answers after the question:

Write a shell script, and give it the extension ".command". For example:

#!/bin/bash 
printf "Hello World\n" 

- Mar 23, 2010, Tony T1.

The DOS .BAT file was an attempt to bring to MS-DOS something like the idea of the UNIX script.
In general, UNIX permits you to make a text file with commands in it and run it by simply flagging
the text file as executable (rather than give it a specific suffix). This is how OS X does it.

However, OS X adds the feature that if you give the file the suffix .command, Finder
will run Terminal.app to execute it (similar to how BAT files work in Windows).

Unlike MS-DOS, however, UNIX (and OS X) permits you to specify what interpreter is used
for the script. An interpreter is a program that reads in text from a file and does something
with it. [...] In UNIX, you can specify which interpreter to use by making the first line in the
text file one that begins with "#!" followed by the path to the interpreter. For example [...]

#!/bin/sh
echo Hello World

- Mar 23, 2010, J D McIninch.

Also, info from an accepted answer for Equivalent of double-clickable .sh and .bat on Mac?:

On mac, there is a specific extension for executing shell
scripts by double clicking them: this is .command.

JNI and Gradle in Android Studio

My issue on OSX it was gradle version. Gradle was ignoring my Android.mk. So, in order to override this option, and use my make instead, I have entered this line:

inside of the android tag in build.gradle.

I have wasted lot of time on this!

How to increase space between dotted border dots

In my case I needed curved corners and thin border so I came up with this solution:

_x000D_
_x000D_
/* For showing dependencies between attributes */
 :root {
  --border-width: 1px;
  --border-radius: 4px;
  --bg-color: #fff;
}


/* Required: */
.dropzone {
  position: relative;
  border: var(--border-width) solid transparent;
  border-radius: var(--border-radius);
  background-clip: padding-box;
  background-color: var(--bg-color);
}
.dropzone::before {
  content: '';
  position: absolute;
  top: calc(var(--border-width) * -1); /* or without variables: 'top: -1px;' */
  right: calc(var(--border-width) * -1);
  bottom: calc(var(--border-width) * -1);
  left: calc(var(--border-width) * -1);
  z-index: -1;
  background-image: repeating-linear-gradient(135deg, transparent 0 8px, var(--bg-color) 8px 16px);
  border-radius: var(--border-radius);
  background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.38);
}


/* Optional: */
html {
  background-color: #fafafb;
  display: flex;
  justify-content: center;
}
.dropzone {
  box-sizing: border-box;
  height: 168px;
  padding: 16px;
  display: flex;
  align-items: center;
  justify-content: center;
  cursor: pointer;
}
.dropzone::before {
  transition: background-color 0.2s ease-in-out;
}
.dropzone:hover::before {
  background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.87);
}
_x000D_
<div class='dropzone'>
  Drag 'n' drop some files here, or click to select files
</div>
_x000D_
_x000D_
_x000D_

The idea is to put svg pattern behind element and display only thin line of this pattern as element border.

Reset the database (purge all), then seed a database

You can use rake db:reset when you want to drop the local database and start fresh with data loaded from db/seeds.rb. This is a useful command when you are still figuring out your schema, and often need to add fields to existing models.

Once the reset command is used it will do the following: Drop the database: rake db:drop Load the schema: rake db:schema:load Seed the data: rake db:seed

But if you want to completely drop your database you can use rake db:drop. Dropping the database will also remove any schema conflicts or bad data. If you want to keep the data you have, be sure to back it up before running this command.

This is a detailed article about the most important rake database commands.

Chrome sendrequest error: TypeError: Converting circular structure to JSON

One approach is to strip object and functions from main object. And stringify the simpler form

function simpleStringify (object){
    var simpleObject = {};
    for (var prop in object ){
        if (!object.hasOwnProperty(prop)){
            continue;
        }
        if (typeof(object[prop]) == 'object'){
            continue;
        }
        if (typeof(object[prop]) == 'function'){
            continue;
        }
        simpleObject[prop] = object[prop];
    }
    return JSON.stringify(simpleObject); // returns cleaned up JSON
};

Ubuntu: Using curl to download an image

For those who don't have nor want to install wget, curl -O (capital "o", not a zero) will do the same thing as wget. E.g. my old netbook doesn't have wget, and is a 2.68 MB install that I don't need.

Can you call Directory.GetFiles() with multiple filters?

If you are using VB.NET (or imported the dependency into your C# project), there actually exists a convenience method that allows to filter for multiple extensions:

Microsoft.VisualBasic.FileIO.FileSystem.GetFiles("C:\\path", Microsoft.VisualBasic.FileIO.SearchOption.SearchAllSubDirectories, new string[] {"*.mp3", "*.jpg"});

In VB.NET this can be accessed through the My-namespace:

My.Computer.FileSystem.GetFiles("C:\path", FileIO.SearchOption.SearchAllSubDirectories, {"*.mp3", "*.jpg"})

Unfortunately, these convenience methods don't support a lazily evaluated variant like Directory.EnumerateFiles() does.

Use sudo with password as parameter

One option is to use the -A flag to sudo. This runs a program to ask for the password. Rather than ask, you could have a script that just spits out the password so the program can continue.

Is there a Google Chrome-only CSS hack?

Sure is:

@media screen and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio:0)
{ 
    #element { properties:value; } 
}

And a little fiddle to see it in action - http://jsfiddle.net/Hey7J/

Must add tho... this is generally bad practice, you shouldn't really be at the point where you start to need individual browser hacks to make you CSS work. Try using reset style sheets at the start of your project, to help avoid this.

Also, these hacks may not be future proof.

HTML: How to limit file upload to be only images?

Here is the HTML for image upload. By default it will show image files only in the browsing window because we have put accept="image/*". But we can still change it from the dropdown and it will show all files. So the Javascript part validates whether or not the selected file is an actual image.

 <div class="col-sm-8 img-upload-section">
     <input name="image3" type="file" accept="image/*" id="menu_images"/>
     <img id="menu_image" class="preview_img" />
     <input type="submit" value="Submit" />
 </div> 

Here on the change event we first check the size of the image. And in the second if condition we check whether or not it is an image file.

this.files[0].type.indexOf("image") will be -1 if it is not an image file.

document.getElementById("menu_images").onchange = function () {
    var reader = new FileReader();
    if(this.files[0].size>528385){
        alert("Image Size should not be greater than 500Kb");
        $("#menu_image").attr("src","blank");
        $("#menu_image").hide();  
        $('#menu_images').wrap('<form>').closest('form').get(0).reset();
        $('#menu_images').unwrap();     
        return false;
    }
    if(this.files[0].type.indexOf("image")==-1){
        alert("Invalid Type");
        $("#menu_image").attr("src","blank");
        $("#menu_image").hide();  
        $('#menu_images').wrap('<form>').closest('form').get(0).reset();
        $('#menu_images').unwrap();         
        return false;
    }   
    reader.onload = function (e) {
        // get loaded data and render thumbnail.
        document.getElementById("menu_image").src = e.target.result;
        $("#menu_image").show(); 
    };

    // read the image file as a data URL.
    reader.readAsDataURL(this.files[0]);
};

What does -save-dev mean in npm install grunt --save-dev

--save-dev means "needed only when developing"

  • e.g. the final users using your package will not want/need/care about what testing suite you used; they will only want packages that are absolutely required to run your code in a production environment. This flag marks what is needed when developing vs production.

Boxplot in R showing the mean

Based on the answers by @James and @Jyotirmoy Bhattacharya I came up with this solution:

zx <- replicate (5, rnorm(50))
zx_means <- (colMeans(zx, na.rm = TRUE))
boxplot(zx, horizontal = FALSE, outline = FALSE)
points(zx_means, pch = 22, col = "darkgrey", lwd = 7)

(See this post for more details)

If you would like to add points to horizontal box plots, please see this post.

How can I zoom an HTML element in Firefox and Opera?

Zoom and transform scale are not the same thing. They are applied at different times. Zoom is applied before the rendering happens, transform - after. The result of this is if you take a div with width/height = 100% nested inside of another div, with fixed size, if you apply zoom, everything inside your inner zoom will shrink, or grow, but if you apply transform your entire inner div will shrink (even though width/height is set to 100%, they are not going to be 100% after transformation).

What is the simplest SQL Query to find the second largest value?

This is very simple code, you can try this :-

ex : Table name = test

salary 

1000
1500
1450
7500

MSSQL Code to get 2nd largest value

select salary from test order by salary desc offset 1 rows fetch next 1 rows only;

here 'offset 1 rows' means 2nd row of table and 'fetch next 1 rows only' is for show only that 1 row. if you dont use 'fetch next 1 rows only' then it shows all the rows from the second row.

javascript create empty array of a given size

As of ES5 (when this answer was given):

If you want an empty array of undefined elements, you could simply do

var whatever = new Array(5);

this would give you

[undefined, undefined, undefined, undefined, undefined]

and then if you wanted it to be filled with empty strings, you could do

whatever.fill('');

which would give you

["", "", "", "", ""]

And if you want to do it in one line:

var whatever = Array(5).fill('');

Do I need <class> elements in persistence.xml?

In Java SE environment, by specification you have to specify all classes as you have done:

A list of all named managed persistence classes must be specified in Java SE environments to insure portability

and

If it is not intended that the annotated persistence classes contained in the root of the persistence unit be included in the persistence unit, the exclude-unlisted-classes element should be used. The exclude-unlisted-classes element is not intended for use in Java SE environments.

(JSR-000220 6.2.1.6)

In Java EE environments, you do not have to do this as the provider scans for annotations for you.

Unofficially, you can try to set <exclude-unlisted-classes>false</exclude-unlisted-classes> in your persistence.xml. This parameter defaults to false in EE and truein SE. Both EclipseLink and Toplink supports this as far I can tell. But you should not rely on it working in SE, according to spec, as stated above.

You can TRY the following (may or may not work in SE-environments):

<persistence-unit name="eventractor" transaction-type="RESOURCE_LOCAL">
     <exclude-unlisted-classes>false</exclude-unlisted-classes>

    <properties>
            <property name="hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto" value="validate" />

How to form tuple column from two columns in Pandas

Get comfortable with zip. It comes in handy when dealing with column data.

Iterating a JavaScript object's properties using jQuery

  ulkeys=document.getElementById('object-keys'),str='';_x000D_

for(i=0,l=keys.length;i<l;i++){_x000D_
   str+= '<li>'+keys[i]+' : '+a[keys[i]]+'</li>';_x000D_
}_x000D_

jQuery Dialog Box

I had the same problem and was looking for a way to solve it which brought me here. After reviewing the suggestion made from RaeLehman it led me to the solution. Here's my implementation.

In my $(document).ready event I initialize my dialog with the autoOpen set to false. I also chose to bind a click event to an element, like a button, which will open my dialog.

$(document).ready(function(){

    // Initialize my dialog
    $("#dialog").dialog({
        autoOpen: false,
        modal: true,
        buttons: {
        "OK":function() { // do something },
        "Cancel": function() { $(this).dialog("close"); }
    }
    });

    // Bind to the click event for my button and execute my function
    $("#x-button").click(function(){
        Foo.DoSomething();
    });
});

Next, I make sure that the function is defined and that is where I implement the dialog open method.

var Foo = {
    DoSomething: function(){
        $("#dialog").dialog("open");

By the way, I tested this in IE7 and Firefox and it works fine. Hope this helps!

How to get margin value of a div in plain JavaScript?

Also, you can create your own outerHeight for HTML elements. I don't know if it works in IE, but it works in Chrome. Perhaps, you can enhance the code below using currentStyle, suggested in the answer above.

Object.defineProperty(Element.prototype, 'outerHeight', {
    'get': function(){
        var height = this.clientHeight;
        var computedStyle = window.getComputedStyle(this); 
        height += parseInt(computedStyle.marginTop, 10);
        height += parseInt(computedStyle.marginBottom, 10);
        height += parseInt(computedStyle.borderTopWidth, 10);
        height += parseInt(computedStyle.borderBottomWidth, 10);
        return height;
    }
});

This piece of code allow you to do something like this:

document.getElementById('foo').outerHeight

According to caniuse.com, getComputedStyle is supported by main browsers (IE, Chrome, Firefox).

How do I check for a network connection?

You can check for a network connection in .NET 2.0 using GetIsNetworkAvailable():

System.Net.NetworkInformation.NetworkInterface.GetIsNetworkAvailable()

To monitor changes in IP address or changes in network availability use the events from the NetworkChange class:

System.Net.NetworkInformation.NetworkChange.NetworkAvailabilityChanged
System.Net.NetworkInformation.NetworkChange.NetworkAddressChanged

Detect IE version (prior to v9) in JavaScript

Detecting IE version using feature detection (IE6+, browsers prior to IE6 are detected as 6, returns null for non-IE browsers):

var ie = (function (){
    if (window.ActiveXObject === undefined) return null; //Not IE
    if (!window.XMLHttpRequest) return 6;
    if (!document.querySelector) return 7;
    if (!document.addEventListener) return 8;
    if (!window.atob) return 9;
    if (!document.__proto__) return 10;
    return 11;
})();

Edit: I've created a bower/npm repo for your convenience: ie-version

Update:

a more compact version can be written in one line as:

return window.ActiveXObject === undefined ? null : !window.XMLHttpRequest ? 6 : !document.querySelector ? 7 : !document.addEventListener ? 8 : !window.atob ? 9 : !document.__proto__ ? 10 : 11;

Reminder - \r\n or \n\r?

I'd use the word 'return' to remember, the r comes before the n.

Convert JSON to DataTable

It can also be achieved using below code.

How to implement endless list with RecyclerView?

@erdna Please refer my below code.May be it will become helpful to you.

     int firstVisibleItem, visibleItemCount, totalItemCount;
   recyclerView.setOnScrollListener(new RecyclerView.OnScrollListener() {

        @Override
        public void onScrolled(RecyclerView recyclerView, int dx, int dy) {
            super.onScrolled(recyclerView, dx, dy);

            visibleItemCount = layoutManager.getChildCount();
            totalItemCount = layoutManager.getItemCount();
            firstVisibleItem = layoutManager.findFirstVisibleItemPosition();
            Log.e("firstVisibleItem", firstVisibleItem + "");
            Log.e("visibleItemCount", visibleItemCount + "");
            Log.e("totalItemCount", totalItemCount + "");

            if (page != total_page_index) {
                if (loading) {
                    if ((visibleItemCount + firstVisibleItem) >= totalItemCount) {
                        Log.e("page", String.valueOf(page));
                        page=page+1;
                        new GetSummary().execute(String.valueOf(page), "");
                        loading = false;
                    }
                }
            }

        }


    });

retrieve links from web page using python and BeautifulSoup

Under the hood BeautifulSoup now uses lxml. Requests, lxml & list comprehensions makes a killer combo.

import requests
import lxml.html

dom = lxml.html.fromstring(requests.get('http://www.nytimes.com').content)

[x for x in dom.xpath('//a/@href') if '//' in x and 'nytimes.com' not in x]

In the list comp, the "if '//' and 'url.com' not in x" is a simple method to scrub the url list of the sites 'internal' navigation urls, etc.

PHP file_get_contents() and setting request headers

Yes.

When calling file_get_contents on a URL, one should use the stream_create_context function, which is fairly well documented on php.net.

This is more or less exactly covered on the following page at php.net in the user comments section: http://php.net/manual/en/function.stream-context-create.php

SET NOCOUNT ON usage

It took me a lot of digging to find real benchmark figures around NOCOUNT, so I figured I'd share a quick summary.

  • If your stored procedure uses a cursor to perform a lot of very quick operations with no returned results, having NOCOUNT OFF can take roughly 10 times as long as having it ON. 1 This is the worst-case scenario.
  • If your stored procedure only performs a single quick operation with no returned results, setting NOCOUNT ON might yield around a 3% performance boost. 2 This would be consistent with a typical insert or update procedure. (See the comments on this answer for some discussion about why this may not always be faster.)
  • If your stored procedure returns results (i.e. you SELECT something), the performance difference will diminish proportionately with the size of the result set.

How do you UrlEncode without using System.Web?

The answers here are very good, but still insufficient for me.

I wrote a small loop that compares Uri.EscapeUriString with Uri.EscapeDataString for all characters from 0 to 255.

NOTE: Both functions have the built-in intelligence that characters above 0x80 are first UTF-8 encoded and then percent encoded.

Here is the result:

******* Different *******

'#' -> Uri "#" Data "%23"
'$' -> Uri "$" Data "%24"
'&' -> Uri "&" Data "%26"
'+' -> Uri "+" Data "%2B"
',' -> Uri "," Data "%2C"
'/' -> Uri "/" Data "%2F"
':' -> Uri ":" Data "%3A"
';' -> Uri ";" Data "%3B"
'=' -> Uri "=" Data "%3D"
'?' -> Uri "?" Data "%3F"
'@' -> Uri "@" Data "%40"


******* Not escaped *******

'!' -> Uri "!" Data "!"
''' -> Uri "'" Data "'"
'(' -> Uri "(" Data "("
')' -> Uri ")" Data ")"
'*' -> Uri "*" Data "*"
'-' -> Uri "-" Data "-"
'.' -> Uri "." Data "."
'_' -> Uri "_" Data "_"
'~' -> Uri "~" Data "~"

'0' -> Uri "0" Data "0"
.....
'9' -> Uri "9" Data "9"

'A' -> Uri "A" Data "A"
......
'Z' -> Uri "Z" Data "Z"

'a' -> Uri "a" Data "a"
.....
'z' -> Uri "z" Data "z"

******* UTF 8 *******

.....
'Ò' -> Uri "%C3%92" Data "%C3%92"
'Ó' -> Uri "%C3%93" Data "%C3%93"
'Ô' -> Uri "%C3%94" Data "%C3%94"
'Õ' -> Uri "%C3%95" Data "%C3%95"
'Ö' -> Uri "%C3%96" Data "%C3%96"
.....

EscapeUriString is to be used to encode URLs, while EscapeDataString is to be used to encode for example the content of a Cookie, because Cookie data must not contain the reserved characters '=' and ';'.

Modifying CSS class property values on the fly with JavaScript / jQuery

Nice question. A lot of the answers here had a solution directly contradicting what you were asking

"I know how to use jQuery to assign width, height, etc. to an element, but what I'm trying to do is actually change the value defined in the stylesheet so that the dynamically-created value can be assigned to multiple elements.
"

jQuery .css styles elements inline: it doesn't change the physical CSS rule! If you want to do this, I would suggest using a vanilla JavaScript solution:

document.styleSheets[0].cssRules[0].cssText = "\
     #myID {
         myRule: myValue;
         myOtherRule: myOtherValue;
     }";

This way, you're setting the stylesheet css rule, not appending an inline style.

Hope this helps!

Difference between a SOAP message and a WSDL?

A SOAP document is sent per request. Say we were a book store, and had a remote server we queried to learn the current price of a particular book. Say we needed to pass the Book's title, number of pages and ISBN number to the server.

Whenever we wanted to know the price, we'd send a unique SOAP message. It'd look something like this;

<SOAP-ENV:Envelope
  xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"
  SOAP-ENV:encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/">
  <SOAP-ENV:Body>
    <m:GetBookPrice xmlns:m="http://namespaces.my-example-book-info.com">
      <ISBN>978-0451524935</ISBN>
      <Title>1984</Title>
      <NumPages>328</NumPages>
    </m:GetBookPrice>
  </SOAP-ENV:Body>
</SOAP-ENV:Envelope> 

And we expect to get a SOAP response message back like;

<SOAP-ENV:Envelope
  xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"
  SOAP-ENV:encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/">
  <SOAP-ENV:Body>
    <m:GetBookPriceResponse xmlns:m="http://namespaces.my-example-book-info.com">
      <CurrentPrice>8.99</CurrentPrice>
      <Currency>USD</Currency>
    </m:GetBookPriceResponse>
  </SOAP-ENV:Body>
</SOAP-ENV:Envelope>

The WSDL then describes how to handle/process this message when a server receives it. In our case, it describes what types the Title, NumPages & ISBN would be, whether we should expect a response from the GetBookPrice message and what that response should look like.

The types would look like this;

<wsdl:types>

  <!-- all type declarations are in a chunk of xsd -->
  <xsd:schema targetNamespace="http://namespaces.my-example-book-info.com"
    xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema">

    <xsd:element name="GetBookPrice">
      <xsd:complexType>
        <xsd:sequence>
          <xsd:element name="ISBN" type="string"/>
          <xsd:element name="Title" type="string"/>
          <xsd:element name="NumPages" type="integer"/>
        </xsd:sequence>
      </xsd:complexType>
    </xsd:element>

    <xsd:element name="GetBookPriceResponse">
      <xsd:complexType>
        <xsd:sequence>
          <xsd:element name="CurrentPrice" type="decimal" />
          <xsd:element name="Currency" type="string" />
        </xsd:sequence>
      </xsd:complexType>
    </xsd:element>

  </xsd:schema>
</wsdl:types>

But the WSDL also contains more information, about which functions link together to make operations, and what operations are avaliable in the service, and whereabouts on a network you can access the service/operations.

Quick way to create a list of values in C#?

IList<string> list = new List<string> {"test1", "test2", "test3"}

Importing class from another file

Your problem is basically that you never specified the right path to the file.

Try instead, from your main script:

from folder.file import Klasa

Or, with from folder import file:

from folder import file
k = file.Klasa()

Or again:

import folder.file as myModule
k = myModule.Klasa()

Get a random item from a JavaScript array

An alternate way would be to add a method to the Array prototype:

 Array.prototype.random = function (length) {
       return this[Math.floor((Math.random()*length))];
 }

 var teams = ['patriots', 'colts', 'jets', 'texans', 'ravens', 'broncos']
 var chosen_team = teams.random(teams.length)
 alert(chosen_team)

How to detect online/offline event cross-browser?

Today there's an open source JavaScript library that does this job: it's called Offline.js.

Automatically display online/offline indication to your users.

Here's a test page. It's beautiful/has a nice feedback UI by the way! :)

Offline.js Simulate UI is an Offline.js plug-in that allows you to test how your pages respond to different connectivity states without having to use brute-force methods to disable your actual connectivity.

How can foreign key constraints be temporarily disabled using T-SQL?

To disable the constraint you have ALTER the table using NOCHECK

ALTER TABLE [TABLE_NAME] NOCHECK CONSTRAINT [ALL|CONSTRAINT_NAME]

To enable you to have to use double CHECK:

ALTER TABLE [TABLE_NAME] WITH CHECK CHECK CONSTRAINT [ALL|CONSTRAINT_NAME]
  • Pay attention to the double CHECK CHECK when enabling.
  • ALL means for all constraints in the table.

Once completed, if you need to check the status, use this script to list the constraint status. Will be very helpfull:

    SELECT (CASE 
        WHEN OBJECTPROPERTY(CONSTID, 'CNSTISDISABLED') = 0 THEN 'ENABLED'
        ELSE 'DISABLED'
        END) AS STATUS,
        OBJECT_NAME(CONSTID) AS CONSTRAINT_NAME,
        OBJECT_NAME(FKEYID) AS TABLE_NAME,
        COL_NAME(FKEYID, FKEY) AS COLUMN_NAME,
        OBJECT_NAME(RKEYID) AS REFERENCED_TABLE_NAME,
        COL_NAME(RKEYID, RKEY) AS REFERENCED_COLUMN_NAME
   FROM SYSFOREIGNKEYS

Ideal way to cancel an executing AsyncTask

I don't like to force interrupt my async tasks with cancel(true) unnecessarily because they may have resources to be freed, such as closing sockets or file streams, writing data to the local database etc. On the other hand, I have faced situations in which the async task refuses to finish itself part of the time, for example sometimes when the main activity is being closed and I request the async task to finish from inside the activity's onPause() method. So it's not a matter of simply calling running = false. I have to go for a mixed solution: both call running = false, then giving the async task a few milliseconds to finish, and then call either cancel(false) or cancel(true).

if (backgroundTask != null) {
    backgroundTask.requestTermination();
    try {
        Thread.sleep((int)(0.5 * 1000));
    } catch (InterruptedException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
    if (backgroundTask.getStatus() != AsyncTask.Status.FINISHED) {
        backgroundTask.cancel(false);
    }
    backgroundTask = null;
}

As a side result, after doInBackground() finishes, sometimes the onCancelled() method is called, and sometimes onPostExecute(). But at least the async task termination is guaranteed.

DataTrigger where value is NOT null?

Compare with null (As Michael Noonan said):

<Style>
    <Style.Triggers>
       <DataTrigger Binding="{Binding SomeProperty}" Value="{x:Null}">
           <Setter Property="Visibility" Value="Collapsed" />
        </DataTrigger>
     </Style.Triggers>
</Style>

Compare with not null (without a converter):

<Style>
    <Setter Property="Visibility" Value="Collapsed" />
    <Style.Triggers>
       <DataTrigger Binding="{Binding SomeProperty}" Value="{x:Null}">
           <Setter Property="Visibility" Value="Visible" />
        </DataTrigger>
     </Style.Triggers>
</Style>

How to reload .bash_profile from the command line?

Simply type:

. ~/.bash_profile

However, if you want to source it to run automatically when terminal starts instead of running it every time you open terminal, you might add . ~/.bash_profile to ~/.bashrc file.

Note:

When you open a terminal, the terminal starts bash in (non-login) interactive mode, which means it will source ~/.bashrc.

~/.bash_profile is only sourced by bash when started in interactive login mode. That is typically only when you login at the console (Ctrl+Alt+F1..F6), or connecting via ssh.

Task.Run with Parameter(s)?

private void RunAsync()
{
    string param = "Hi";
    Task.Run(() => MethodWithParameter(param));
}

private void MethodWithParameter(string param)
{
    //Do stuff
}

Edit

Due to popular demand I must note that the Task launched will run in parallel with the calling thread. Assuming the default TaskScheduler this will use the .NET ThreadPool. Anyways, this means you need to account for whatever parameter(s) being passed to the Task as potentially being accessed by multiple threads at once, making them shared state. This includes accessing them on the calling thread.

In my above code that case is made entirely moot. Strings are immutable. That's why I used them as an example. But say you're not using a String...

One solution is to use async and await. This, by default, will capture the SynchronizationContext of the calling thread and will create a continuation for the rest of the method after the call to await and attach it to the created Task. If this method is running on the WinForms GUI thread it will be of type WindowsFormsSynchronizationContext.

The continuation will run after being posted back to the captured SynchronizationContext - again only by default. So you'll be back on the thread you started with after the await call. You can change this in a variety of ways, notably using ConfigureAwait. In short, the rest of that method will not continue until after the Task has completed on another thread. But the calling thread will continue to run in parallel, just not the rest of the method.

This waiting to complete running the rest of the method may or may not be desirable. If nothing in that method later accesses the parameters passed to the Task you may not want to use await at all.

Or maybe you use those parameters much later on in the method. No reason to await immediately as you could continue safely doing work. Remember, you can store the Task returned in a variable and await on it later - even in the same method. For instance, once you need to access the passed parameters safely after doing a bunch some other work. Again, you do not need to await on the Task right when you run it.

Anyways, a simple way to make this thread-safe with respect to the parameters passed to Task.Run is to do this:

You must first decorate RunAsync with async:

private async void RunAsync()

Important Note

Preferably the method marked async should not return void, as the linked documentation mentions. The common exception to this is event handlers such as button clicks and such. They must return void. Otherwise I always try to return a Task or Task<TResult> when using async. It's good practice for a quite a few reasons.

Now you can await running the Task like below. You cannot use await without async.

await Task.Run(() => MethodWithParameter(param));
//Code here and below in the same method will not run until AFTER the above task has completed in one fashion or another

So, in general, if you await the task you can avoid treating passed in parameters as a potentially shared resource with all the pitfalls of modifying something from multiple threads at once. Also, beware of closures. I won't cover those in depth but the linked article does a great job of it.

Side Note

A bit off topic, but be careful using any type of "blocking" on the WinForms GUI thread due to it being marked with [STAThread]. Using await won't block at all, but I do sometimes see it used in conjunction with some sort of blocking.

"Block" is in quotes because you technically cannot block the WinForms GUI thread. Yes, if you use lock on the WinForms GUI thread it will still pump messages, despite you thinking it's "blocked". It's not.

This can cause bizarre issues in very rare cases. One of the reasons you never want to use a lock when painting, for example. But that's a fringe and complex case; however I've seen it cause crazy issues. So I noted it for completeness sake.

Is there any way to install Composer globally on Windows?

This may be useful to someone:

On Windows 7, if you've installed Composer using curl, it can be found in similar path:

What is the difference between new/delete and malloc/free?

There are a few things which new does that malloc doesn’t:

  1. new constructs the object by calling the constructor of that object
  2. new doesn’t require typecasting of allocated memory.
  3. It doesn’t require an amount of memory to be allocated, rather it requires a number of objects to be constructed.

So, if you use malloc, then you need to do above things explicitly, which is not always practical. Additionally, new can be overloaded but malloc can’t be.

In a word, if you use C++, try to use new as much as possible.

React: why child component doesn't update when prop changes

You should probably make the Child as functional component if it does not maintain any state and simply renders the props and then call it from the parent. Alternative to this is that you can use hooks with the functional component (useState) which will cause stateless component to re-render.

Also you should not alter the propas as they are immutable. Maintain state of the component.

Child = ({bar}) => (bar);

This returns the quarter of the @date, assuming @date is a DATETIME.

TypeError: string indices must be integers, not str // working with dict

I see that you are looking for an implementation of the problem more than solving that error. Here you have a possible solution:

from itertools import chain

def involved(courses, person):
    courses_info = chain.from_iterable(x.values() for x in courses.values())
    return filter(lambda x: x['teacher'] == person, courses_info)

print involved(courses, 'Dave')

The first thing I do is getting the list of the courses and then filter by teacher's name.

Select distinct values from a table field

In addition to the still very relevant answer of jujule, I find it quite important to also be aware of the implications of order_by() on distinct("field_name") queries. This is, however, a Postgres only feature!

If you are using Postgres and if you define a field name that the query should be distinct for, then order_by() needs to begin with the same field name (or field names) in the same sequence (there may be more fields afterward).

Note

When you specify field names, you must provide an order_by() in the QuerySet, and the fields in order_by() must start with the fields in distinct(), in the same order.

For example, SELECT DISTINCT ON (a) gives you the first row for each value in column a. If you don’t specify an order, you’ll get some arbitrary row.

If you want to e-g- extract a list of cities that you know shops in , the example of jujule would have to be adapted to this:

# returns an iterable Queryset of cities.
models.Shop.objects.order_by('city').values_list('city', flat=True).distinct('city')  

delete map[key] in go?

Strangely enough,

package main

func main () {
    var sessions = map[string] chan int{};
    delete(sessions, "moo");
}

seems to work. This seems a poor use of resources though!

Another way is to check for existence and use the value itself:

package main

func main () {
    var sessions = map[string] chan int{};
    sessions["moo"] = make (chan int);
    _, ok := sessions["moo"];
    if ok {
        delete(sessions, "moo");
    }
}

How do I put variables inside javascript strings?

As of node.js >4.0 it gets more compatible with ES6 standard, where string manipulation greatly improved.

The answer to the original question can be as simple as:

var s = `hello ${my_name}, how are you doing`;
// note: tilt ` instead of single quote '

Where the string can spread multiple lines, it makes templates or HTML/XML processes quite easy. More details and more capabilitie about it: Template literals are string literals at mozilla.org.

How to get the Android Emulator's IP address?

Just to clarify: from within your app, you can simply refer to the emulator as 'localhost' or 127.0.0.1.

Web traffic is routed through your development machine, so the emulator's external IP is whatever IP has been assigned to that machine by your provider. The development machine can always be reached from your device at 10.0.2.2.

Since you were asking only about the emulator's IP, what is it you're trying to do?

How to modify memory contents using GDB?

Expanding on the answers provided here.

You can just do set idx = 1 to set a variable, but that syntax is not recommended because the variable name may clash with a set sub-command. As an example set w=1 would not be valid.

This means that you should prefer the syntax: set variable idx = 1 or set var idx = 1.

Last but not least, you can just use your trusty old print command, since it evaluates an expression. The only difference being that he also prints the result of the expression.

(gdb) p idx = 1
$1 = 1

You can read more about gdb here.

Thanks for bringing this to the attention of the community and apologies for the issues you’ve been having. This issue stems from having a copy of the expired WWDR Intermediate certificate in both your System and Login keychains. To resolve the issue, you should first download and install the new WWDR intermediate certificate (by double-clicking on the file). Next, in the Keychain Access application, select the System keychain. Make sure to select “Show Expired Certificates” in the View menu and then delete the expired version of the Apple Worldwide Developer Relations Certificate Authority Intermediate certificate (expired on February 14, 2016). Your certificates should now appear as valid in Keychain Access and be available to Xcode for submissions to the App Store.

@class vs. #import

for extra info about file dependencies & #import & @class check this out:

http://qualitycoding.org/file-dependencies/ itis good article

summary of the article

imports in header files:

  • #import the superclass you’re inheriting, and the protocols you’re implementing.
  • Forward-declare everything else (unless it comes from a framework with a master header).
  • Try to eliminate all other #imports.
  • Declare protocols in their own headers to reduce dependencies.
  • Too many forward declarations? You have a Large Class.

imports in implementation files:

  • Eliminate cruft #imports that aren’t used.
  • If a method delegates to another object and returns what it gets back, try to forward-declare that object instead of #importing it.
  • If including a module forces you to include level after level of successive dependencies, you may have a set of classes that wants to become a library. Build it as a separate library with a master header, so everything can be brought in as a single prebuilt chunk.
  • Too many #imports? You have a Large Class.

POP UP WINDOWS IN APPLET

hi guys i was searching pop up windows in applet all over the internet but could not find answer for windows.

Although it is simple i am just helping you. Hope you will like it as it is in simpliest form. here's the code :

Filename: PopUpWindow.java for java file and we need html file too.

For applet let us take its popup.html

CODE:

import java.awt.*;

import java.applet.*;

import java.awt.event.*;

public class PopUpWindow extends Applet{

public void init(){

Button open = new Button("open window");

add(open);

Button close = new Button("close window");

add(close);

 Frame f = new Frame("pupup win");

  f.setSize(200,200);




 open.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {

                 public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
                     if(!f.isShowing()) {
                         f.setVisible(true);
                     }


                 }

              });
 close.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {

                 public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
                     if(f.isShowing()) {
                        f.setVisible(false);
                     }

                 }

              });

 }

Vagrant shared and synced folders

shared folders VS synced folders

Basically shared folders are renamed to synced folder from v1 to v2 (docs), under the bonnet it is still using vboxsf between host and guest (there is known performance issues if there are large numbers of files/directories).

Vagrantfile directory mounted as /vagrant in guest

Vagrant is mounting the current working directory (where Vagrantfile resides) as /vagrant in the guest, this is the default behaviour.

See docs

NOTE: By default, Vagrant will share your project directory (the directory with the Vagrantfile) to /vagrant.

You can disable this behaviour by adding cfg.vm.synced_folder ".", "/vagrant", disabled: true in your Vagrantfile.

Why synced folder is not working

Based on the output /tmp on host was NOT mounted during up time.

Use VAGRANT_INFO=debug vagrant up or VAGRANT_INFO=debug vagrant reload to start the VM for more output regarding why the synced folder is not mounted. Could be a permission issue (mode bits of /tmp on host should be drwxrwxrwt).

I did a test quick test using the following and it worked (I used opscode bento raring vagrant base box)

config.vm.synced_folder "/tmp", "/tmp/src"

output

$ vagrant reload
