Tool for sending multipart/form-data request

UPDATE: I have created a video on sending multipart/form-data requests to explain this better.


Actually, Postman can do this. Here is a screenshot

Make sure you check the comment from @maxkoryukov

Be careful with explicit Content-Type header. Better - do not set it's value, the Postman is smart enough to fill this header for you. BUT, if you want to set the Content-Type: multipart/form-data - do not forget about boundary field.

How do I get a list of installed CPAN modules?

perldoc -q installed

claims that cpan -l will do the trick, however it's not working for me. The other option:

cpan -a

does spit out a nice list of installed packages and has the nice side effect of writing them to a file.

When should I use double or single quotes in JavaScript?

Section 7.8.4 of the specification describes literal string notation. The only difference is that DoubleStringCharacter is "SourceCharacter but not double-quote" and SingleStringCharacter is "SourceCharacter but not single-quote". So the only difference can be demonstrated thusly:

'A string that\'s single quoted'

"A string that's double quoted"

So it depends on how much quote escaping you want to do. Obviously the same applies to double quotes in double quoted strings.

Sending command line arguments to npm script

From what I see, people use package.json scripts when they would like to run script in simpler way. For example, to use nodemon that installed in local node_modules, we can't call nodemon directly from the cli, but we can call it by using ./node_modules/nodemon/nodemon.js. So, to simplify this long typing, we can put this...


    ...

    scripts: {
      'start': 'nodemon app.js'
    }

    ...

... then call npm start to use 'nodemon' which has app.js as the first argument.

What I'm trying to say, if you just want to start your server with the node command, I don't think you need to use scripts. Typing npm start or node app.js has the same effort.

But if you do want to use nodemon, and want to pass a dynamic argument, don't use script either. Try to use symlink instead.

For example using migration with sequelize. I create a symlink...

ln -s node_modules/sequelize/bin/sequelize sequelize

... And I can pass any arguement when I call it ...

./sequlize -h /* show help */

./sequelize -m /* upgrade migration */

./sequelize -m -u /* downgrade migration */

etc...

At this point, using symlink is the best way I could figure out, but I don't really think it's the best practice.

I also hope for your opinion to my answer.

Large WCF web service request failing with (400) HTTP Bad Request

In my case, it was not working even after trying all solutions and setting all limits to max. In last I found out that a Microsoft IIS filtering module Url Scan 3.1 was installed on IIS/website, which have it's own limit to reject incoming requests based on content size and return "404 Not found page".

It's limit can be updated in %windir%\System32\inetsrv\urlscan\UrlScan.ini file by setting MaxAllowedContentLength to the required value.

For eg. following will allow upto 300 mb requests

MaxAllowedContentLength=314572800

Hope it will help someone!

How to create a link to another PHP page

You can also used like this

<a href="<?php echo 'index.php'; ?>">Index Page</a>
<a href="<?php echo 'page2.php'; ?>">Page 2</a>

Representing Directory & File Structure in Markdown Syntax

I followed an example in another repository and wrapped the directory structure within a pair of triple backticks (```):

```
project
¦   README.md
¦   file001.txt    
¦
+---folder1
¦   ¦   file011.txt
¦   ¦   file012.txt
¦   ¦
¦   +---subfolder1
¦       ¦   file111.txt
¦       ¦   file112.txt
¦       ¦   ...
¦   
+---folder2
    ¦   file021.txt
    ¦   file022.txt
```

Traits vs. interfaces

If you know English and know what trait means, it is exactly what the name says. It is a class-less pack of methods and properties you attach to existing classes by typing use.

Basically, you could compare it to a single variable. Closures functions can use these variables from outside of the scope and that way they have the value inside. They are powerful and can be used in everything. Same happens to traits if they are being used.

How to stash my previous commit?

An alternative solution uses the stash:

Before:

~/dev/gitpro $git stash list

~/dev/gitpro $git log --oneline -3

* 7049dd5 (HEAD -> master) c111
* 3f1fa3d c222
* 0a0f6c4 c333
  1. git reset head~1 <--- head shifted one back to c222; working still contains c111 changes
  2. git stash push -m "commit 111" <--- staging/working (containing c111 changes) stashed; staging/working rolled back to revised head (containing c222 changes)
  3. git reset head~1 <--- head shifted one back to c333; working still contains c222 changes
  4. git stash push -m "commit 222" <--- staging/working (containing c222 changes) stashed; staging/working rolled back to revised head (containing c333 changes)
  5. git stash pop stash@{1} <--- oldest stash entry with c111 changes removed & applied to staging/working
  6. git commit -am "commit 111" <-- new commit with c111's changes becomes new head

note you cannot run 'git stash pop' without specifying the stash@{1} entry. The stash is a LIFO stack -- not FIFO -- so that would incorrectly pop the stash@{0} entry with c222's changes (instead of stash@{1} with c111's changes).

note if there are conflicting chunks between commits 111 and 222, then you'll be forced to resolve them when attempting to pop. (This would be the case if you went with an alternative rebase solution as well.)

After:

~/dev/gitpro $git stash list

stash@{0}: On master: c222

~/dev/gitpro $git log -2 --oneline

* edbd9e8 (HEAD -> master) c111
* 0a0f6c4 c333

Console logging for react?

If you want to log inside JSX you can create a dummy component
which plugs where you wish to log:

_x000D_
_x000D_
const Console = prop => (
  console[Object.keys(prop)[0]](...Object.values(prop))
  ,null // ? React components must return something 
)

// Some component with JSX and a logger inside
const App = () => 
  <div>
    <p>imagine this is some component</p>
    <Console log='foo' />
    <p>imagine another component</p>
    <Console warn='bar' />
  </div>

// Render 
ReactDOM.render(
  <App />,
  document.getElementById("react")
)
_x000D_
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/react/16.8.4/umd/react.production.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/react-dom/16.8.4/umd/react-dom.production.min.js"></script>

How to copy a file along with directory structure/path using python?

To create all intermediate-level destination directories you could use os.makedirs() before copying:

import os
import shutil

srcfile = 'a/long/long/path/to/file.py'
dstroot = '/home/myhome/new_folder'


assert not os.path.isabs(srcfile)
dstdir =  os.path.join(dstroot, os.path.dirname(srcfile))

os.makedirs(dstdir) # create all directories, raise an error if it already exists
shutil.copy(srcfile, dstdir)

MySQL Workbench: How to keep the connection alive

OK - so this issue has been driving me crazy - v 6.3.6 on Ubuntu Linux. None of the above solutions worked for me. Connecting to localhost mysql server previously always worked fine. Connecting to remote server always timed out - after about 60 seconds, sometimes after less time, sometimes more.

What finally worked for me was upgrading Workbench to 6.3.9 - no more dropped connections.

Remove white space below image

I found this question and none of the solutions here worked for me. I found another solution that got rid of the gaps below images in Chrome. I had to add line-height:0; to the img selector in my CSS and the gaps below images went away.

Crazy that this problem persists in browsers in 2013.

Set height of <div> = to height of another <div> through .css

If you don't care for IE6 and IE7 users, simply use display: table-cell for your divs:

demo

Note the use of wrapper with display: table.

For IE6/IE7 users - if you have them - you'll probably need to fallback to Javascript.

Enterprise app deployment doesn't work on iOS 7.1

I had the same problem and although I was already using an SSL server, simply changing the links to https wasn't working as there was an underlying problem.

enter image description here Click here for image

That highlighted bit told me that we should be given the option to trust the certificate, but since this is the app store, working through Safari that recovery suggestion just isn't presented.


I wasn't happy with the existing solutions because:

  • Some options require dependance on a third party (Dropbox)
  • We weren't willing to pay for an SSL certificate
    • Free SSL certificates are only a temporary solution.

I finally found a solution by creating a Self Signed Root Certificate Authority and generating our server's SSL certificate using this.

I used Keychain Access and OSX Server, but there are other valid solutions to each step


Creating a Certificate Authority

From what I gather, certificate authorities are used to verify that certificates are genuine. Since we're about to create one ourselves, it's not exactly secure, but it means that you can trust all certificates from a given authority. A list of these authorities is usually included by default in your browsers as these are actually trusted. (GeoTrust Global CA, Verisign etc)

  • Open Keychain and use the certificate assistant to create an authority

enter image description here

  • Fill in your Certificate Authority Information

enter image description here

  • I don't know if it's necessary, but I made the authority trusted.

enter image description here


Generating a Certificate Signing Request

In our case, certificate signing requests are generated by the server admin. Simply it's a file that asks "Can I have a certificate with this information for my site please".

  • Next you'll have to create your Certificate Signing Request (I used OSX Server's Certificates manager for this bit

enter image description here

  • Fill in your certificate information (Must contain only ascii chars!, thanks @Jasper Blues)

enter image description here

  • Save the generate CSR somewhere

enter image description here


Creating the Certificate

Acting as the certificate authority again, it's up to you to decide if the person who sent you the CSR is genuine and they're not pretending to be somebody else. Real authorities have their own ways of doing this, but since you are hopefully quite sure that you are you, your verification should be quite certain :)

  • Go back to Keychain Access and open the "Create A Certificate.." option as shown

enter image description here

  • Drag in your saved CSR to the box indicated

enter image description here

  • Click the "Let me override defaults for this request button"

enter image description here

  • I like to increase the validity period.

enter image description here

  • For some reason, we have to fill in some information again

enter image description here

  • Click continue on this screen

enter image description here

  • MAKE SURE YOU CLICK SSL SERVER AUTHENTICATION, this one caused me some headaches.

enter image description here

  • You can click continue through the rest of the options.

  • The Mail app will open giving you the chance to send the certificate. Instead of emailing, right click it and save it.

enter image description here


Installing the Certificate

We now need to set up the server to use the certificate we just created for it's SSL traffic.

  • If the device your working on is your server, you might find the certificate is already installed.

enter image description here

  • If not though, double click the Pending certificate and drag the PEM file that we just saved from the email into the space indicated. (Alternatively, you can export your PEM from keychain if you didn't save it.)

enter image description here

  • Update your server to use this new certificate. If you find that the new certificate won't "stick" and keeps reverting, go back to the bit in BOLD ITALIC CAPS

enter image description here


Setting Up Devices

Each device you need to install apps on will need to have a copy of this certificate authority so that they know they can trust SSL certificates from that authority

  • Go back to Keychain Access and export your certificate authority as a .cer

enter image description here

  • I then put this file on my server with my OTA apps, users can click this link and download the authority certificate. Emailing the certificate directly to users is also a valid option.

enter image description here

  • Install the certificate on your device.

enter image description here


Test

  • Make sure your plist links are https

    • Try and install an app! It should now work. The certificate authority is trusted and the SSL certificate came from that authority.

java: HashMap<String, int> not working

You cannot use primitive types in HashMap. int, or double don't work. You have to use its enclosing type. for an example

Map<String,Integer> m = new HashMap<String,Integer>();

Now both are objects, so this will work.

Web API optional parameters

Sku is an int, can't be defaulted to string "sku". Please check Optional URI Parameters and Default Values

What is a handle in C++?

A handle is a sort of pointer in that it is typically a way of referencing some entity.

It would be more accurate to say that a pointer is one type of handle, but not all handles are pointers.

For example, a handle may also be some index into an in memory table, which corresponds to an entry that itself contains a pointer to some object.

The key thing is that when you have a "handle", you neither know nor care how that handle actually ends up identifying the thing that it identifies, all you need to know is that it does.

It should also be obvious that there is no single answer to "what exactly is a handle", because handles to different things, even in the same system, may be implemented in different ways "under the hood". But you shouldn't need to be concerned with those differences.

Call PHP function from Twig template

There is already a Twig extension that lets you call PHP functions form your Twig templates like:

Hi, I am unique: {{ uniqid() }}.

And {{ floor(7.7) }} is floor of 7.7.

See official extension repository.

Subversion ignoring "--password" and "--username" options

Best I can give you is a "works for me" on SVN 1.5. You may try adding --no-auth-cache to your svn update to see if that lets you override more easily.

If you want to permanently switch from user2 to user1, head into ~/.subversion/auth/ on *nix and delete the auth cache file for domain.com (most likely in ~/.subversion/auth/svn.simple/ -- just read through them and you'll find the one you want to drop). While it is possible to update the current auth cache, you have to make sure to update the length tokens as well. Simpler just to get prompted again next time you update.

How do I make bootstrap table rows clickable?

May be you are trying to attach a function when table rows are clicked.

var table = document.getElementById("tableId");
var rows = table.getElementsByTagName("tr");
for (i = 0; i < rows.length; i++) {
    rows[i].onclick = functioname(); //call the function like this
}

Perform Button click event when user press Enter key in Textbox

You can do it with javascript/jquery:

<script>
    function runScript(e) {
        if (e.keyCode == 13) {
            $("#myButton").click(); //jquery
            document.getElementById("myButton").click(); //javascript
        }
    }
</script>

<asp:textbox id="txtUsername" runat="server" onkeypress="return runScript(event)" />

<asp:LinkButton id="myButton" text="Login" runat="server" />

Creating stored procedure with declare and set variables

You should try this syntax - assuming you want to have @OrderID as a parameter for your stored procedure:

CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.YourStoredProcNameHere
   @OrderID INT
AS
BEGIN
 DECLARE @OrderItemID AS INT
 DECLARE @AppointmentID AS INT
 DECLARE @PurchaseOrderID AS INT
 DECLARE @PurchaseOrderItemID AS INT
 DECLARE @SalesOrderID AS INT
 DECLARE @SalesOrderItemID AS INT

 SELECT @OrderItemID = OrderItemID 
 FROM [OrderItem] 
 WHERE OrderID = @OrderID

 SELECT @AppointmentID = AppoinmentID 
 FROM [Appointment] 
 WHERE OrderID = @OrderID

 SELECT @PurchaseOrderID = PurchaseOrderID 
 FROM [PurchaseOrder] 
 WHERE OrderID = @OrderID

END

OF course, that only works if you're returning exactly one value (not multiple values!)

MySQL SELECT last few days?

SELECT DATEDIFF(NOW(),pickup_date) AS noofday 
FROM cir_order 
WHERE DATEDIFF(NOW(),pickup_date)>2;

or

SELECT *

WHERE cir_order.`cir_date` >= DATE_ADD( CURDATE(), INTERVAL -10 DAY )

How to change a single value in a NumPy array?

Is this what you are after? Just index the element and assign a new value.

A[2,1]=150

How to install JRE 1.7 on Mac OS X and use it with Eclipse?

Try editing your eclipse.ini file and add the following at the top

-vm
/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.7.0_09.jdk/Contents/Home

Of course the path may be slightly different, looks like I have an older version...

I'm not sure if it will add itself automatically. If not go into

How do I request and process JSON with python?

Python's standard library has json and urllib2 modules.

import json
import urllib2

data = json.load(urllib2.urlopen('http://someurl/path/to/json'))

Right align text in android TextView

In general, android:gravity="right" is different from android:layout_gravity="right".

The first one affects the position of the text itself within the View, so if you want it to be right-aligned, then layout_width= should be either "fill_parent" or "match_parent".

The second one affects the View's position inside its parent, in other words - aligning the object itself (edit box or text view) inside the parent view.

using awk with column value conditions

This is more readable for me

awk '{if ($2 ~ /findtext/) print $3}' <infile>

Best way to remove duplicate entries from a data table

This post is regarding fetching only Distincts rows from Data table on basis of multiple Columns.

Public coid removeDuplicatesRows(DataTable dt)
{
  DataTable uniqueCols = dt.DefaultView.ToTable(true, "RNORFQNo", "ManufacturerPartNo",  "RNORFQId", "ItemId", "RNONo", "Quantity", "NSNNo", "UOMName", "MOQ", "ItemDescription");
} 

You need to call this method and you need to assign value to datatable. In Above code we have RNORFQNo , PartNo,RFQ id,ItemId, RNONo, QUantity, NSNNO, UOMName,MOQ, and Item Description as Column on which we want distinct values.

Transpose a matrix in Python

If we wanted to return the same matrix we would write:

return [[ m[row][col] for col in range(0,width) ] for row in range(0,height) ]

What this does is it iterates over a matrix m by going through each row and returning each element in each column. So the order would be like:

[[1,2,3],
[4,5,6],
[7,8,9]]

Now for question 3, we instead want to go column by column, returning each element in each row. So the order would be like:

[[1,4,7],
[2,5,8],
[3,6,9]]

Therefore just switch the order in which we iterate:

return [[ m[row][col] for row in range(0,height) ] for col in range(0,width) ]

Pass Hidden parameters using response.sendRedirect()

Using session, I successfully passed a parameter (name) from servlet #1 to servlet #2, using response.sendRedirect in servlet #1. Servlet #1 code:

protected void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) {
    String name = request.getParameter("name");
    String password = request.getParameter("password");
    ...
    request.getSession().setAttribute("name", name);
    response.sendRedirect("/todo.do");

In Servlet #2, you don't need to get name back. It's already connected to the session. You could do String name = (String) request.getSession().getAttribute("name"); ---but you don't need this.

If Servlet #2 calls a JSP, you can show name this way on the JSP webpage:

<h1>Welcome ${name}</h1>

mySQL select IN range

To select data in numerical range you can use BETWEEN which is inclusive.

SELECT JOB FROM MYTABLE WHERE ID BETWEEN 10 AND 15;

Strange "java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError" in Eclipse

This seems to be a common error. The solution is to:

  • right-click project
  • choose properties
  • choose 'Java Compiler'
  • unclick the first box saying 'Enable project specific settings'
  • apply
  • save
  • run

Hope this helps in some cases.

Select by partial string from a pandas DataFrame

Here's what I ended up doing for partial string matches. If anyone has a more efficient way of doing this please let me know.

def stringSearchColumn_DataFrame(df, colName, regex):
    newdf = DataFrame()
    for idx, record in df[colName].iteritems():

        if re.search(regex, record):
            newdf = concat([df[df[colName] == record], newdf], ignore_index=True)

    return newdf

Can dplyr join on multiple columns or composite key?

Updating to use tibble()

You can pass a named vector of length greater than 1 to the by argument of left_join():

library(dplyr)

d1 <- tibble(
  x = letters[1:3],
  y = LETTERS[1:3],
  a = rnorm(3)
  )

d2 <- tibble(
  x2 = letters[3:1],
  y2 = LETTERS[3:1],
  b = rnorm(3)
  )

left_join(d1, d2, by = c("x" = "x2", "y" = "y2"))

Get href attribute on jQuery

var a_href = $('div.cpt').find('h2 a').attr('href');

should be

var a_href = $(this).find('div.cpt').find('h2 a').attr('href');

In the first line, your query searches the entire document. In the second, the query starts from your tr element and only gets the element underneath it. (You can combine the finds if you like, I left them separate to illustrate the point.)

Unable to resolve "unable to get local issuer certificate" using git on Windows with self-signed certificate

I have tried all approach mentioned here but no luck with any. Finally i found a different approach what i did is

  • Generated ssh public /private key on my system for git repo

  • copy ssh key to your git account and use ssh instead of https in git clone .check below step to generate ssh key

Open Git Bash.

Paste the text below, substituting in your GitHub email address.

$ ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -C "[email protected]"

This creates a new ssh key, using the provided email as a label.

Generating public/private rsa key pair. When you're prompted to "Enter a file in which to save the key," press Enter. This accepts the default file location.

Enter a file in which to save the key (/c/Users/you/.ssh/id_rsa):[Press enter]

What is the main difference between Collection and Collections in Java?

Collection is an interface from which other class forms like List, Set are derived. Collections (with "S") is a utility class having static methods to simplify work on collection. Ex : Collections.sort()

CodeIgniter - How to return Json response from controller

Declaring and initializing a string array in VB.NET

I believe you need to specify "Option Infer On" for this to work.

Option Infer allows the compiler to make a guess at what is being represented by your code, thus it will guess that {"stuff"} is an array of strings. With "Option Infer Off", {"stuff"} won't have any type assigned to it, ever, and so it will always fail, without a type specifier.

Option Infer is, I think On by default in new projects, but Off by default when you migrate from earlier frameworks up to 3.5.

Opinion incoming:

Also, you mention that you've got "Option Explicit Off". Please don't do this.

Setting "Option Explicit Off" means that you don't ever have to declare variables. This means that the following code will silently and invisibly create the variable "Y":

Dim X as Integer
Y = 3

This is horrible, mad, and wrong. It creates variables when you make typos. I keep hoping that they'll remove it from the language.

CMake: How to build external projects and include their targets

Edit: CMake now has builtin support for this. See new answer.

You can also force the build of the dependent target in a secondary make process

See my answer on a related topic.

Get a list of resources from classpath directory

Based on @rob 's information above, I created the implementation which I am releasing to the public domain:

private static List<String> getClasspathEntriesByPath(String path) throws IOException {
    InputStream is = Main.class.getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream(path);

    StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
    while (is.available()>0) {
        byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];
        sb.append(new String(buffer, Charset.defaultCharset()));
    }

    return Arrays
            .asList(sb.toString().split("\n"))          // Convert StringBuilder to individual lines
            .stream()                                   // Stream the list
            .filter(line -> line.trim().length()>0)     // Filter out empty lines
            .collect(Collectors.toList());              // Collect remaining lines into a List again
}

While I would not have expected getResourcesAsStream to work like that on a directory, it really does and it works well.

How does "make" app know default target to build if no target is specified?

To save others a few seconds, and to save them from having to read the manual, here's the short answer. Add this to the top of your make file:

.DEFAULT_GOAL := mytarget

mytarget will now be the target that is run if "make" is executed and no target is specified.

If you have an older version of make (<= 3.80), this won't work. If this is the case, then you can do what anon mentions, simply add this to the top of your make file:

.PHONY: default
default: mytarget ;

converting json to string in python

There are other differences. For instance, {'time': datetime.now()} cannot be serialized to JSON, but can be converted to string. You should use one of these tools depending on the purpose (i.e. will the result later be decoded).

How to add a class to a given element?

first, give the div an id. Then, call function appendClass:

<script language="javascript">
  function appendClass(elementId, classToAppend){
    var oldClass = document.getElementById(elementId).getAttribute("class");
    if (oldClass.indexOf(classToAdd) == -1)
    {
      document.getElementById(elementId).setAttribute("class", classToAppend);
    }
}
</script>

Constants in Objective-C

If you want to call something like this NSString.newLine; from objective c, and you want it to be static constant, you can create something like this in swift:

public extension NSString {
    @objc public static let newLine = "\n"
}

And you have nice readable constant definition, and available from within a type of your choice while stile bounded to context of type.

How to get SQL from Hibernate Criteria API (*not* for logging)

How do I check if file exists in jQuery or pure JavaScript?

Here's how to do it ES7 way, if you're using Babel transpiler or Typescript 2:

async function isUrlFound(url) {
  try {
    const response = await fetch(url, {
      method: 'HEAD',
      cache: 'no-cache'
    });

    return response.status === 200;

  } catch(error) {
    // console.log(error);
    return false;
  }
}

Then inside your other async scope, you can easily check whether url exist:

const isValidUrl = await isUrlFound('http://www.example.com/somefile.ext');

console.log(isValidUrl); // true || false

fatal: could not create work tree dir 'kivy'

For other Beginners (like myself) If you are on windows running git as admin also solves the problem.

how to check if a form is valid programmatically using jQuery Validation Plugin

For Magento, you check validation of form by something like below.

You can try this:

require(["jquery"], function ($) {
    $(document).ready(function () {
        $('#my-button-name').click(function () { // The button type should be "button" and not submit
            if ($('#form-name').valid()) {
                alert("Validation pass");
                return false;
            }else{
                alert("Validation failed");
                return false;
            }
        });
    });
});

Hope this may help you!

where to place CASE WHEN column IS NULL in this query

That looks like it might belong in the select statement:

SELECT id, col1, col2, col3, (CASE WHEN table3.col3 IS NULL THEN table2.col3 AS col4 ELSE table3.col3 as col4 END)
FROM table1
LEFT OUTER JOIN table2
ON table1.id = table2.id
LEFT OUTER JOIN table3
ON table1.id = table3.id

Hover and Active only when not disabled

One way is to add a partcular class while disabling buttons and overriding the hover and active states for that class in css. Or removing a class when disabling and specifying the hover and active pseudo properties on that class only in css. Either way, it likely cannot be done purely with css, you'll need to use a bit of js.

Simple PowerShell LastWriteTime compare

I can't fault any of the answers here for the OP accepted one of them as resolving their problem. However, I found them flawed in one respect. When you output the result of the assignment to the variable, it contains numerous blank lines, not just the sought after answer. Example:

PS C:\brh> [datetime](Get-ItemProperty -Path .\deploy.ps1 -Name LastWriteTime).LastWriteTime

Friday, December 12, 2014 2:33:09 PM



PS C:\brh> 

I'm a fan of two things in code, succinctness and correctness. brianary has the right of it for succinctness with a tip of the hat to Roger Lipscombe but both miss correctness due to the extra lines in the result. Here's what I think the OP was looking for since it's what got me over the finish line.

PS C:\brh> (ls .\deploy.ps1).LastWriteTime.DateTime
Friday, December 12, 2014 2:33:09 PM

PS C:\brh> 

Note the lack of extra lines, only the one that PowerShell uses to separate prompts. Now this can be assigned to a variable for comparison or, as in my case, stored in a file for reading and comparison in a later session.

How do I convert two lists into a dictionary?

Here is also an example of adding a list value in you dictionary

list1 = ["Name", "Surname", "Age"]
list2 = [["Cyd", "JEDD", "JESS"], ["DEY", "AUDIJE", "PONGARON"], [21, 32, 47]]
dic = dict(zip(list1, list2))
print(dic)

always make sure the your "Key"(list1) is always in the first parameter.

{'Name': ['Cyd', 'JEDD', 'JESS'], 'Surname': ['DEY', 'AUDIJE', 'PONGARON'], 'Age': [21, 32, 47]}

How to convert a selection to lowercase or uppercase in Sublime Text

For Windows:

  • Ctrl+K,Ctrl+U for UPPERCASE.
  • Ctrl+K,Ctrl+L for lowercase.

Method 1 (Two keys pressed at a time)

  1. Press Ctrl and hold.
  2. Now press K, release K while holding Ctrl. (Do not release the Ctrl key)
  3. Immediately, press U (for uppercase) OR L (for lowercase) with Ctrl still being pressed, then release all pressed keys.

Method 2 (3 keys pressed at a time)

  1. Press Ctrl and hold.
  2. Now press K.
  3. Without releasing Ctrl and K, immediately press U (for uppercase) OR L (for lowercase) and release all pressed keys.

Please note: If you press and hold Ctrl+K for more than two seconds it will start deleting text so try to be quick with it.

I use the above shortcuts, and they work on my Windows system.

C# how to use enum with switch

Your code is fine. In case you're not sure how to use Calculate function, try

Calculate(5,5,(Operator)0); //this will add 5,5
Calculate(5,5,Operator.PLUS);// alternate

Default enum values start from 0 and increase by one for following elements, until you assign different values. Also you can do :

public enum Operator{PLUS=21,MINUS=345,MULTIPLY=98,DIVIDE=100};

How to sort by two fields in Java?

I'm not sure if it's ugly to write the compartor inside the Person class in this case. Did it like this:

public class Person implements Comparable <Person> {

    private String lastName;
    private String firstName;
    private int age;

    public Person(String firstName, String lastName, int BirthDay) {
        this.firstName = firstName;
        this.lastName = lastName;
        this.age = BirthDay;

    }

    public String getFirstName() {
        return firstName;
    }

    public String getLastName() {
        return lastName;
    }

    public int compareTo(Person o) {
        // default compareTo
    }

    @Override
    public String toString() {
        return firstName + " " + lastName + " " + age + "";
    }

    public static class firstNameComperator implements Comparator<Person> {
        @Override
        public int compare(Person o1, Person o2) {
            return o1.firstName.compareTo(o2.firstName);
        }
    }

How to delete columns in a CSV file?

you can use the csv package to iterate over your csv file and output the columns that you want to another csv file.

The example below is not tested and should illustrate a solution:

import csv

file_name = 'C:\Temp\my_file.csv'
output_file = 'C:\Temp\new_file.csv'
csv_file = open(file_name, 'r')
## note that the index of the year column is excluded
column_indices = [0,1,3,4]
with open(output_file, 'w') as fh:
    reader = csv.reader(csv_file, delimiter=',')
    for row in reader:
       tmp_row = []
       for col_inx in column_indices:
           tmp_row.append(row[col_inx])
       fh.write(','.join(tmp_row))

CSS / HTML Navigation and Logo on same line

You need to apply the logo class to the image...then float the ul

Codepen Demo

HTML

<img class="logo" src="http://i.imgur.com/hCrQkJi.png">

CSS

.navigation-bar ul {
  padding: 0px;
  margin: 0px;
  text-align: center;
  float: left;
  background: white;
}

difference between iframe, embed and object elements

Another reason to use object over iframe is that object sub resources (when an <object> performs HTTP requests) are considered as passive/display in terms of Mixed content, which means it's more secure when you must have Mixed content.

Mixed content means that when you have https but your resource is from http.

smtpclient " failure sending mail"

I experienced the same issue when sending high volume email. Setting the deliveryMethod property to PickupDirectoryFromIis fixed it for me. Also don't create a new SmtpClient everytime.

Selecting element by data attribute with jQuery

Using $('[data-whatever="myvalue"]') will select anything with html attributes, but in newer jQueries it seems that if you use $(...).data(...) to attach data, it uses some magic browser thingy and does not affect the html, therefore is not discovered by .find as indicated in the previous answer.

Verify (tested with 1.7.2+) (also see fiddle): (updated to be more complete)

var $container = $('<div><div id="item1"/><div id="item2"/></div>');

// add html attribute
var $item1 = $('#item1').attr('data-generated', true);

// add as data
var $item2 = $('#item2').data('generated', true);

// create item, add data attribute via jquery
var $item3 = $('<div />', {id: 'item3', data: { generated: 'true' }, text: 'Item 3' });
$container.append($item3);

// create item, "manually" add data attribute
var $item4 = $('<div id="item4" data-generated="true">Item 4</div>');
$container.append($item4);

// only returns $item1 and $item4
var $result = $container.find('[data-generated="true"]');

How can I put a database under git (version control)?

I think X-Istence is on the right track, but there are a few more improvements you can make to this strategy. First, use:

$pg_dump --schema ... 

to dump the tables, sequences, etc and place this file under version control. You'll use this to separate the compatibility changes between your branches.

Next, perform a data dump for the set of tables that contain configuration required for your application to operate (should probably skip user data, etc), like form defaults and other data non-user modifiable data. You can do this selectively by using:

$pg_dump --table=.. <or> --exclude-table=..

This is a good idea because the repo can get really clunky when your database gets to 100Mb+ when doing a full data dump. A better idea is to back up a more minimal set of data that you require to test your app. If your default data is very large though, this may still cause problems though.

If you absolutely need to place full backups in the repo, consider doing it in a branch outside of your source tree. An external backup system with some reference to the matching svn rev is likely best for this though.

Also, I suggest using text format dumps over binary for revision purposes (for the schema at least) since these are easier to diff. You can always compress these to save space prior to checking in.

Finally, have a look at the postgres backup documentation if you haven't already. The way you're commenting on backing up 'the database' rather than a dump makes me wonder if you're thinking of file system based backups (see section 23.2 for caveats).

How to make clang compile to llvm IR

If you have multiple source files, you probably actually want to use link-time-optimization to output one bitcode file for the entire program. The other answers given will cause you to end up with a bitcode file for every source file.

Instead, you want to compile with link-time-optimization

clang -flto -c program1.c -o program1.o
clang -flto -c program2.c -o program2.o

and for the final linking step, add the argument -Wl,-plugin-opt=also-emit-llvm

clang -flto -Wl,-plugin-opt=also-emit-llvm program1.o program2.o -o program

This gives you both a compiled program and the bitcode corresponding to it (program.bc). You can then modify program.bc in any way you like, and recompile the modified program at any time by doing

clang program.bc -o program

although be aware that you need to include any necessary linker flags (for external libraries, etc) at this step again.

Note that you need to be using the gold linker for this to work. If you want to force clang to use a specific linker, create a symlink to that linker named "ld" in a special directory called "fakebin" somewhere on your computer, and add the option

-B/home/jeremy/fakebin

to any linking steps above.

Specify path to node_modules in package.json

In short: It is not possible, and as it seems won't ever be supported (see here https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/775).

There are some hacky work-arrounds with using the CLI or ENV-Variables (see the current selected answer), .npmrc-Config-Files or npm link - what they all have in common: They are never just project-specific, but always some kind of global Solutions.

For me, none of those solutions are really clean because contributors to your project always need to create some special configuration or have some special knowledge - they can't just npm install and it works.

So: Either you will have to put your package.json in the same directory where you want your node_modules installed, or live with the fact that they will always be in the root-dir of your project.

What is LDAP used for?

Well, LDAP is a protocol(way) to access structured info. LDAP uses client-server model so, LDAP client makes request to access required info. LDAP server stores info not in relational way but in attribute and value pair. You can use LDAP to assign same privilege to group of user or same credential to access multiple services.

How to parse freeform street/postal address out of text, and into components

No code? For shame!

Here is a simple JavaScript address parser. It's pretty awful for every single reason that Matt gives in his dissertation above (which I almost 100% agree with: addresses are complex types, and humans make mistakes; better to outsource and automate this - when you can afford to).

But rather than cry, I decided to try:

This code works OK for parsing most Esri results for findAddressCandidate and also with some other (reverse)geocoders that return single-line address where street/city/state are delimited by commas. You can extend if you want or write country-specific parsers. Or just use this as case study of how challenging this exercise can be or at how lousy I am at JavaScript. I admit I only spent about thirty mins on this (future iterations could add caches, zip validation, and state lookups as well as user location context), but it worked for my use case: End user sees form that parses geocode search response into 4 textboxes. If address parsing comes out wrong (which is rare unless source data was poor) it's no big deal - the user gets to verify and fix it! (But for automated solutions could either discard/ignore or flag as error so dev can either support the new format or fix source data.)

How to write text in ipython notebook?

Change the cell type to Markdown in the menu bar, from Code to Markdown. Currently in Notebook 4.x, the keyboard shortcut for such an action is: Esc (for command mode), then m (for markdown).

AngularJS + JQuery : How to get dynamic content working in angularjs

You need to call $compile on the HTML string before inserting it into the DOM so that angular gets a chance to perform the binding.

In your fiddle, it would look something like this.

$("#dynamicContent").html(
  $compile(
    "<button ng-click='count = count + 1' ng-init='count=0'>Increment</button><span>count: {{count}} </span>"
  )(scope)
);

Obviously, $compile must be injected into your controller for this to work.

Read more in the $compile documentation.

Warning: mysqli_error() expects exactly 1 parameter, 0 given error

mysqli_error function requires $myConnection as parameters, that's why you get the warning

Default value of function parameter

The first way would be preferred to the second.

This is because the header file will show that the parameter is optional and what its default value will be. Additionally, this will ensure that the default value will be the same, no matter the implementation of the corresponding .cpp file.

In the second way, there is no guarantee of a default value for the second parameter. The default value could change, depending on how the corresponding .cpp file is implemented.

Apply CSS styles to an element depending on its child elements

In my case, I had to change the cell padding of an element that contained an input checkbox for a table that's being dynamically rendered with DataTables:

<td class="dt-center">
    <input class="a" name="constCheck" type="checkbox" checked="">
</td>

After implementing the following line code within the initComplete function I was able to produce the correct padding, which fixed the rows from being displayed with an abnormally large height

 $('tbody td:has(input.a)').css('padding', '0px');

Now, you can see that the correct styles are being applied to the parent element:

<td class=" dt-center" style="padding: 0px;">
    <input class="a" name="constCheck" type="checkbox" checked="">
</td>

Essentially, this answer is an extension of @KP's answer, but the more collaboration of implementing this the better. In summation, I hope this helps someone else because it works! Lastly, thank you so much @KP for leading me in the right direction!

Tomcat 7: How to set initial heap size correctly?

Just came across this and I've implemented Nathan's solution:

add the line (changing the values as required):

export JAVA_OPTS="-Xms512M -Xmx1024M"

to /usr/share/tomcat7/bin/setenv.sh

If that file doesn't exists then create it and

chown root:root it
chmod 755 it

And then restart tomcat and check it with

ps aux | grep logging

Which should just pick up the instance and show the java parms

Installing Apple's Network Link Conditioner Tool

  1. Remove "Network Link Conditioner", open "System Preferences", press CTRL and click the "Network Link Conditioner" icon. Select "Remove".
  2. Restart your computer
  3. Download the dmg "Hardware IO tools" for your XCode version from https://developer.apple.com/download/, you need to be logged in to do this.
  4. Open it and install "Network Link Conditioner"
  5. Restart your computer one last time.

NodeJS / Express: what is "app.use"?

app.use() acts as a middleware in express apps. Unlike app.get() and app.post() or so, you actually can use app.use() without specifying the request URL. In such a case what it does is, it gets executed every time no matter what URL's been hit.

Create empty data frame with column names by assigning a string vector?

How about:

df <- data.frame(matrix(ncol = 3, nrow = 0))
x <- c("name", "age", "gender")
colnames(df) <- x

To do all these operations in one-liner:

setNames(data.frame(matrix(ncol = 3, nrow = 0)), c("name", "age", "gender"))

#[1] name   age    gender
#<0 rows> (or 0-length row.names)

Or

data.frame(matrix(ncol=3,nrow=0, dimnames=list(NULL, c("name", "age", "gender"))))

Hibernate JPA Sequence (non-Id)

If you have a column with UNIQUEIDENTIFIER type and default generation needed on insert but column is not PK

@Generated(GenerationTime.INSERT)
@Column(nullable = false , columnDefinition="UNIQUEIDENTIFIER")
private String uuidValue;

In db you will have

CREATE TABLE operation.Table1
(
    Id         INT IDENTITY (1,1)               NOT NULL,
    UuidValue  UNIQUEIDENTIFIER DEFAULT NEWID() NOT NULL)

In this case you will not define generator for a value which you need (It will be automatically thanks to columnDefinition="UNIQUEIDENTIFIER"). The same you can try for other column types

How do you fade in/out a background color using jquery?

To fade between 2 colors using only simple javascript:

function Blend(a, b, alpha) {
  var aa = [
        parseInt('0x' + a.substring(1, 3)), 
        parseInt('0x' + a.substring(3, 5)), 
        parseInt('0x' + a.substring(5, 7))
    ];

  var bb = [
        parseInt('0x' + b.substring(1, 3)), 
        parseInt('0x' + b.substring(3, 5)), 
        parseInt('0x' + b.substring(5, 7))
    ];

  r = '0' + Math.round(aa[0] + (bb[0] - aa[0])*alpha).toString(16);
  g = '0' + Math.round(aa[1] + (bb[1] - aa[1])*alpha).toString(16);
  b = '0' + Math.round(aa[2] + (bb[2] - aa[2])*alpha).toString(16);

  return '#'
        + r.substring(r.length - 2)
        + g.substring(g.length - 2)
        + b.substring(b.length - 2);
}

function fadeText(cl1, cl2, elm){
  var t = [];
  var steps = 100;
  var delay = 3000;

  for (var i = 0; i < steps; i++) {
    (function(j) {
         t[j] = setTimeout(function() {
          var a  = j/steps;
          var color = Blend(cl1,cl2,a);
          elm.style.color = color;
         }, j*delay/steps);
    })(i);
  }

  return t;
}

var cl1 = "#ffffff";
var cl2 = "#c00000";
var elm = document.getElementById("note");
T  = fadeText(cl1,cl2,elm);

Authentication failed because remote party has closed the transport stream

This happened to me when an web request endpoint was switched to another server that accepted TLS1.2 requests only. Tried so many attempts mostly found on Stackoverflow like

  1. Registry Keys ,
  2. Added :
    System.Net.ServicePointManager.SecurityProtocol |= System.Net.SecurityProtocolType.Tls12; to Global.ASX OnStart,
  3. Added in Web.config.
  4. Updated .Net framework to 4.7.2 Still getting same Exception.

The exception received did no make justice to the actual problem I was facing and found no help from the service operator.

To solve this I have to add a new Cipher Suite TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384 I have used IIS Crypto 2.0 Tool from here as shown below.

pythonw.exe or python.exe?

To summarize and complement the existing answers:

  • python.exe is a console (terminal) application for launching CLI-type scripts.

    • Unless run from an existing console window, python.exe opens a new console window.
    • Standard streams sys.stdin, sys.stdout and sys.stderr are connected to the console window.
    • Execution is synchronous when launched from a cmd.exe or PowerShell console window: See eryksun's 1st comment below.

      • If a new console window was created, it stays open until the script terminates.
      • When invoked from an existing console window, the prompt is blocked until the script terminates.
  • pythonw.exe is a GUI app for launching GUI/no-UI-at-all scripts.

    • NO console window is opened.
    • Execution is asynchronous:
      • When invoked from a console window, the script is merely launched and the prompt returns right away, whether the script is still running or not.
    • Standard streams sys.stdin, sys.stdout and sys.stderr are NOT available.
      • Caution: Unless you take extra steps, this has potentially unexpected side effects:
        • Unhandled exceptions cause the script to abort silently.
        • In Python 2.x, simply trying to use print() can cause that to happen (in 3.x, print() simply has no effect).
        • To prevent that from within your script, and to learn more, see this answer of mine.
        • Ad-hoc, you can use output redirection:Thanks, @handle.
          pythonw.exe yourScript.pyw 1>stdout.txt 2>stderr.txt
          (from PowerShell:
          cmd /c pythonw.exe yourScript.pyw 1>stdout.txt 2>stderr.txt) to capture stdout and stderr output in files.
          If you're confident that use of print() is the only reason your script fails silently with pythonw.exe, and you're not interested in stdout output, use @handle's command from the comments:
          pythonw.exe yourScript.pyw 1>NUL 2>&1
          Caveat: This output redirection technique does not work when invoking *.pyw scripts directly (as opposed to by passing the script file path to pythonw.exe). See eryksun's 2nd comment and its follow-ups below.

You can control which of the executables runs your script by default - such as when opened from Explorer - by choosing the right filename extension:

  • *.py files are by default associated (invoked) with python.exe
  • *.pyw files are by default associated (invoked) with pythonw.exe

Click through div to underlying elements

I'm adding this answer because I didn’t see it here in full. I was able to do this using elementFromPoint. So basically:

  • attach a click to the div you want to be clicked through
  • hide it
  • determine what element the pointer is on
  • fire the click on the element there.
var range-selector= $("")
    .css("position", "absolute").addClass("range-selector")
    .appendTo("")
    .click(function(e) {
        _range-selector.hide();

        $(document.elementFromPoint(e.clientX,e.clientY)).trigger("click");
    });

In my case the overlaying div is absolutely positioned—I am not sure if this makes a difference. This works on IE8/9, Safari Chrome and Firefox at least.

UITextField border color

Try this:

UITextField *theTextFiels=[[UITextField alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(40, 40, 150, 30)];
    theTextFiels.borderStyle=UITextBorderStyleNone;
    theTextFiels.layer.cornerRadius=8.0f;
    theTextFiels.layer.masksToBounds=YES;
        theTextFiels.backgroundColor=[UIColor redColor];
    theTextFiels.layer.borderColor=[[UIColor blackColor]CGColor];
    theTextFiels.layer.borderWidth= 1.0f;

    [self.view addSubview:theTextFiels];
    [theTextFiels release];

and import QuartzCore:

#import <QuartzCore/QuartzCore.h>

Switch/toggle div (jQuery)

Use this:

<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
    $("#toggle").click(function() { $("#login-form, #recover-password").toggle(); });
</script>

Your HTML should look like:

<a id="toggle" href="javascript:void(0);">forgot password?</a>
<div id="login-form"></div>
<div id="recover-password" style="display:none;"></div>

Hey, all right! One line! I <3 jQuery.

python numpy vector math

You can just use numpy arrays. Look at the numpy for matlab users page for a detailed overview of the pros and cons of arrays w.r.t. matrices.

As I mentioned in the comment, having to use the dot() function or method for mutiplication of vectors is the biggest pitfall. But then again, numpy arrays are consistent. All operations are element-wise. So adding or subtracting arrays and multiplication with a scalar all work as expected of vectors.

Edit2: Starting with Python 3.5 and numpy 1.10 you can use the @ infix-operator for matrix multiplication, thanks to pep 465.

Edit: Regarding your comment:

  1. Yes. The whole of numpy is based on arrays.

  2. Yes. linalg.norm(v) is a good way to get the length of a vector. But what you get depends on the possible second argument to norm! Read the docs.

  3. To normalize a vector, just divide it by the length you calculated in (2). Division of arrays by a scalar is also element-wise.

    An example in ipython:

    In [1]: import math
    
    In [2]: import numpy as np
    
    In [3]: a = np.array([4,2,7])
    
    In [4]: np.linalg.norm(a)
    Out[4]: 8.3066238629180749
    
    In [5]: math.sqrt(sum([n**2 for n in a]))
    Out[5]: 8.306623862918075
    
    In [6]: b = a/np.linalg.norm(a)
    
    In [7]: np.linalg.norm(b)
    Out[7]: 1.0
    

    Note that In [5] is an alternative way to calculate the length. In [6] shows normalizing the vector.

How to select ALL children (in any level) from a parent in jQuery?

It seems that the original test case is wrong.

I can confirm that the selector #my_parent_element * works with unbind().

Let's take the following html as an example:

<div id="#my_parent_element">
  <div class="div1">
    <div class="div2">hello</div>
    <div class="div3">my</div>
  </div>
  <div class="div4">name</div>
  <div class="div5">
    <div class="div6">is</div>
    <div class="div7">
      <div class="div8">marco</div>
      <div class="div9">(try and click on any word)!</div>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>
<button class="unbind">Now, click me and try again</button>

And the jquery bit:

$('.div1,.div2,.div3,.div4,.div5,.div6,.div7,.div8,.div9').click(function() {
  alert('hi!');
})
$('button.unbind').click(function() {
  $('#my_parent_element *').unbind('click');
})

You can try it here: http://jsfiddle.net/fLvwbazk/7/

Pure CSS to make font-size responsive based on dynamic amount of characters

calc(42px + (60 - 42) * (100vw - 768px) / (1440 - 768));

use this equation.

For anything larger or smaller than 1440 and 768, you can either give it a static value, or apply the same approach.

The drawback with vw solution is that you cannot set a scale ratio, say a 5vw at screen resolution 1440 may ended up being 60px font-size, your idea font size, but when you shrink the window width down to 768, it may ended up being 12px, not the minimal you want. With this approach, you can set your upper boundary and lower boundary, and the font will scale itself in between.

How can I see all the "special" characters permissible in a varchar or char field in SQL Server?

The specific characters that can be stored in a varchar or char column depend upon the column collation. See my answer here for a script that will show you these for the various different collations.

If you want to find all characters outside a particular ASCII range see my answer here.

Static vs class functions/variables in Swift classes?

Testing in Swift 4 shows performance difference in simulator. I made a class with "class func" and struct with "static func" and ran them in test.

static func is:

  • 20% faster without compiler optimization
  • 38% faster when optimization -whole-module-optimization is enabled.

However, running the same code on iPhone 7 under iOS 10.3 shows exactly the same performance.

Here is sample project in Swift 4 for Xcode 9 if you like to test yourself https://github.com/protyagov/StructVsClassPerformance

Run reg command in cmd (bat file)?

You will probably get an UAC prompt when importing the reg file. If you accept that, you have more rights.

Since you are writing to the 'policies' key, you need to have elevated rights. This part of the registry protected, because it contains settings that are administered by your system administrator.

Alternatively, you may try to run regedit.exe from the command prompt.

regedit.exe /S yourfile.reg

.. should silently import the reg file. See RegEdit Command Line Options Syntax for more command line options.

php: how to get associative array key from numeric index?

If it is the first element, i.e. $array[0], you can try:

echo key($array);

If it is the second element, i.e. $array[1], you can try:

next($array);
echo key($array);

I think this method is should be used when required element is the first, second or at most third element of the array. For other cases, loops should be used otherwise code readability decreases.

Why is there extra padding at the top of my UITableView with style UITableViewStyleGrouped in iOS7

func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, heightForHeaderInSection section: Int) -> CGFloat {

This worked for me. Also one can give height for header based on the section.

How to check if variable's type matches Type stored in a variable

In order to check if an object is compatible with a given type variable, instead of writing

u is t

you should write

typeof(t).IsInstanceOfType(u)

WebRTC vs Websockets: If WebRTC can do Video, Audio, and Data, why do I need Websockets?

Security is one aspect you missed.

With Websockets the data has to go via a central webserver which typically sees all the traffic and can access it.

With WebRTC the data is end-to-end encrypted and does not pass through a server (except sometimes TURN servers are needed, but they have no access to the body of the messages they forward).

Depending on your application this may or may not matter.

If you are sending large amounts of data, the saving in cloud bandwidth costs due to webRTC's P2P architecture may be worth considering too.

There are ways to handle your own signals in certain JVMs -- see this article about the HotSpot JVM for example.

By using the Sun internal sun.misc.Signal.handle(Signal, SignalHandler) method call you are also able to register a signal handler, but probably not for signals like INT or TERM as they are used by the JVM.

To be able to handle any signal you would have to jump out of the JVM and into Operating System territory.

What I generally do to (for instance) detect abnormal termination is to launch my JVM inside a Perl script, but have the script wait for the JVM using the waitpid system call.

I am then informed whenever the JVM exits, and why it exited, and can take the necessary action.

What's onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)

onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) Function in Android:

  1. When an Activity first call or launched then onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) method is responsible to create the activity.

  2. When ever orientation(i.e. from horizontal to vertical or vertical to horizontal) of activity gets changed or when an Activity gets forcefully terminated by any Operating System then savedInstanceState i.e. object of Bundle Class will save the state of an Activity.

  3. After Orientation changed then onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) will call and recreate the activity and load all data from savedInstanceState.

  4. Basically Bundle class is used to stored the data of activity whenever above condition occur in app.

  5. onCreate() is not required for apps. But the reason it is used in app is because that method is the best place to put initialization code.

  6. You could also put your initialization code in onStart() or onResume() and when you app will load first, it will work same as in onCreate().

Print PDF directly from JavaScript

Cross browser solution for printing pdf from base64 string:

  • Chrome: print window is opened
  • FF: new tab with pdf is opened
  • IE11: open/save prompt is opened

.

const blobPdfFromBase64String = base64String => {
   const byteArray = Uint8Array.from(
     atob(base64String)
       .split('')
       .map(char => char.charCodeAt(0))
   );
  return new Blob([byteArray], { type: 'application/pdf' });
};

const isIE11 = !!(window.navigator && window.navigator.msSaveOrOpenBlob); // or however you want to check it

const printPDF = blob => {
   try {
     isIE11
       ? window.navigator.msSaveOrOpenBlob(blob, 'documents.pdf')
       : printJS(URL.createObjectURL(blob)); // http://printjs.crabbly.com/
   } catch (e) {
     throw PDFError;
   }
};

printPDF(blobPdfFromBase64String(base64String))

BONUS - Opening blob file in new tab for IE11

If you're able to do some preprocessing of the base64 string on the server you could expose it under some url and use the link in printJS :)

state machines tutorials

State machines are not something that inherently needs a tutorial to be explained or even used. What I suggest is that you take a look at the data and how it needs to be parsed.

For example, I had to parse the data protocol for a Near Space balloon flight computer, it stored data on the SD card in a specific format (binary) which needed to be parsed out into a comma seperated file. Using a state machine for this makes the most sense because depending on what the next bit of information is we need to change what we are parsing.

The code is written using C++, and is available as ParseFCU. As you can see, it first detects what version we are parsing, and from there it enters two different state machines.

It enters the state machine in a known-good state, at that point we start parsing and depending on what characters we encounter we either move on to the next state, or go back to a previous state. This basically allows the code to self-adapt to the way the data is stored and whether or not certain data exists at all even.

In my example, the GPS string is not a requirement for the flight computer to log, so processing of the GPS string may be skipped over if the ending bytes for that single log write is found.

State machines are simple to write, and in general I follow the rule that it should flow. Input going through the system should flow with certain ease from state to state.

Convert Month Number to Month Name Function in SQL

You can use the inbuilt CONVERT function

select CONVERT(varchar(3), Date, 100)  as Month from MyTable.

This will display first 3 characters of month (JAN,FEB etc..)

Java: set timeout on a certain block of code?

Yes, but its generally a very bad idea to force another thread to interrupt on a random line of code. You would only do this if you intend to shutdown the process.

What you can do is to use Thread.interrupt() for a task after a certain amount of time. However, unless the code checks for this it won't work. An ExecutorService can make this easier with Future.cancel(true)

Its much better for the code to time itself and stop when it needs to.

How to make the webpack dev server run on port 80 and on 0.0.0.0 to make it publicly accessible?

For me: changing the listen host worked:

.listen(3000, 'localhost', function (err, result) {
        if (err) {
            console.log(err);
        }
        console.log('Listening at localhost:3000');
    });

was changed to :

.listen(3000, '0.0.0.0', function (err, result) {
        if (err) {
            console.log(err);
        }
        console.log('Listening at localhost:3000');
    });

and the server started listening on 0.0.0.0

How to make child element higher z-index than parent?

To achieve what you want without removing any styles you have to make the z-index of the '.parent' class bigger then the '.wholePage' class.

.parent {
    position: relative;
    z-index: 4; /*matters since it's sibling to wholePage*/
}

.child {
    position: relative;
    z-index:1; /*doesn't matter */
    background-color: white;
    padding: 5px;
}

PHP Session timeout

When the session expires the data is no longer present, so something like

if (!isset($_SESSION['id'])) {
    header("Location: destination.php");
    exit;
}

will redirect whenever the session is no longer active.

You can set how long the session cookie is alive using session.cookie_lifetime

ini_set("session.cookie_lifetime","3600"); //an hour

EDIT: If you are timing sessions out due to security concern (instead of convenience,) use the accepted answer, as the comments below show, this is controlled by the client and thus not secure. I never thought of this as a security measure.

CodeIgniter: 404 Page Not Found on Live Server

Please check the root/application/core/ folder files whether if you have used any of MY_Loader.php, MY_Parser.php or MY_Router.php files.

If so, please try by removing above files from the folder and check whether that make any difference. In fact, just clean that folder by just keeping the default index.html file.

I have found these files caused the issue to route to the correct Controller's functions.

Hope that helps!

How do you create a daemon in Python?

        if pid > 0:
            # exit first parent
            sys.exit(0)
    except OSError as err:
        sys.stderr.write('_Fork #1 failed: {0}\n'.format(err))
        sys.exit(1)
    # decouple from parent environment
    os.chdir('/')
    os.setsid()
    os.umask(0)
    # do second fork
    try:
        pid = os.fork()
        if pid > 0:
            # exit from second parent
            sys.exit(0)
    except OSError as err:
        sys.stderr.write('_Fork #2 failed: {0}\n'.format(err))
        sys.exit(1)
    # redirect standard file descriptors
    sys.stdout.flush()

private final static attribute vs private final attribute

Lets say if the class will not have more than one instance ever, then which one takes more memory:

private static final int ID = 250; or private final int ID = 250;

I've understood that static will refer to the class type with only one copy in the memory and non static will be in a new memory location for each instance variable. However internally if we just compare 1 instance of the same class ever (i.e. more than 1 instance would not be created), then is there any overhead in terms of space used by 1 static final variable?

Python's equivalent of && (logical-and) in an if-statement

        # find files ending with .py
        if entry.is_file() and entry.name.endswith(".py") :
            print("- ", entry.name)
find_local_py_scripts()

SQL RANK() versus ROW_NUMBER()

I haven't done anything with rank, but I discovered this today with row_number().

select item, name, sold, row_number() over(partition by item order by sold) as row from table_name

This will result in some repeating row numbers since in my case each name holds all items. Each item will be ordered by how many were sold.

+--------+------+-----+----+
|glasses |store1|  30 | 1  |
|glasses |store2|  35 | 2  |
|glasses |store3|  40 | 3  |
|shoes   |store2|  10 | 1  |
|shoes   |store1|  20 | 2  |
|shoes   |store3|  22 | 3  |
+--------+------+-----+----+

Select rows with same id but different value in another column

This is an old question yet I find that I also need a solution for this from time to time. The previous answers are all good and works well, I just personally prefer using CTE, for example:

DECLARE @T TABLE (ARIDNR INT, LIEFNR varchar(5)) --table variable for loading sample data
INSERT INTO @T (ARIDNR, LIEFNR) VALUES (1,'A'),(2,'A'),(3,'A'),(1,'B'),(2,'B'); --add your sample data to it
WITH duplicates AS --the CTE portion to find the duplicates
(
    SELECT ARIDNR FROM @T GROUP BY ARIDNR HAVING COUNT(*) > 1
)
SELECT t.* FROM @T t --shows results from main table
INNER JOIN duplicates d on t.ARIDNR = d.ARIDNR --where the main table can be joined to the duplicates CTE

Yields the following results:

1|A
1|B
2|B
2|A

What is the difference between a heuristic and an algorithm?

Heuristics are algorithms, so in that sense there is none, however, heuristics take a 'guess' approach to problem solving, yielding a 'good enough' answer, rather than finding a 'best possible' solution.

A good example is where you have a very hard (read NP-complete) problem you want a solution for but don't have the time to arrive to it, so have to use a good enough solution based on a heuristic algorithm, such as finding a solution to a travelling salesman problem using a genetic algorithm.

Sequelize.js delete query?

  1. the best way to delete a record is to find it firstly (if exist in data base in the same time you want to delete it)
  2. watch this code
const StudentSequelize = require("../models/studientSequelize");
const StudentWork = StudentSequelize.Student;

const id = req.params.id;
    StudentWork.findByPk(id) // here i fetch result by ID sequelize V. 5
    .then( resultToDelete=>{
        resultToDelete.destroy(id); // when i find the result i deleted it by destroy function
    })
    .then( resultAfterDestroy=>{
        console.log("Deleted :",resultAfterDestroy);
    })
    .catch(err=> console.log(err));

In MySQL, can I copy one row to insert into the same table?

For a very simple solution, you could use PHPMyAdmin to export the row as a CSV file then simply import the amended CSV file. Editing the ID/primarykey column to show a 0 for the primarykey value before you import it.

SELECT * FROM table where primarykey=1

Then at the bottom of the page:

enter image description here

Where is says "Export" simply export, then edit the csv file to remove the primarykey value, so it's empty, and then just import it into the database, a new primarykey will be assigned on import.

Padding characters in printf

I think this is the simplest solution. Pure shell builtins, no inline math. It borrows from previous answers.

Just substrings and the ${#...} meta-variable.

A="[>---------------------<]";

# Strip excess padding from the right
#

B="A very long header"; echo "${A:0:-${#B}} $B"
B="shrt hdr"          ; echo "${A:0:-${#B}} $B"

Produces

[>----- A very long header
[>--------------- shrt hdr


# Strip excess padding from the left
#

B="A very long header"; echo "${A:${#B}} $B"
B="shrt hdr"          ; echo "${A:${#B}} $B"

Produces

-----<] A very long header
---------------<] shrt hdr

How do I get a substring of a string in Python?

Using hardcoded indexes itself can be a mess.

In order to avoid that, Python offers a built-in object slice().

string = "my company has 1000$ on profit, but I lost 500$ gambling."

If we want to know how many money I got left.

Normal solution:

final = int(string[15:19]) - int(string[43:46])
print(final)
>>>500

Using slices:

EARNINGS = slice(15, 19)
LOSSES = slice(43, 46)
final = int(string[EARNINGS]) - int(string[LOSSES])
print(final)
>>>500

Using slice you gain readability.

How to change the button text for 'Yes' and 'No' buttons in the MessageBox.Show dialog?

Just add a new form and add buttons and a label. Give the value to be shown and the text of the button, etc. in its constructor, and call it from anywhere you want in the project.

In project -> Add Component -> Windows Form and select a form

Add some label and buttons.

Initialize the value in constructor and call it from anywhere.

public class form1:System.Windows.Forms.Form
{
    public form1()
    {
    }

    public form1(string message,string buttonText1,string buttonText2)
    {
       lblMessage.Text = message;
       button1.Text = buttonText1;
       button2.Text = buttonText2;
    }
}

// Write code for button1 and button2 's click event in order to call 
// from any where in your current project.

// Calling

Form1 frm = new Form1("message to show", "buttontext1", "buttontext2");
frm.ShowDialog();

Regex to match URL end-of-line or "/" character

You've got a couple regexes now which will do what you want, so that's adequately covered.

What hasn't been mentioned is why your attempt won't work: Inside a character class, $ (as well as ^, ., and /) has no special meaning, so [/$] matches either a literal / or a literal $ rather than terminating the regex (/) or matching end-of-line ($).

How to convert vector to array

As to std::vector<int> vec, vec to get int*, you can use two method:

  1. int* arr = &vec[0];

  2. int* arr = vec.data();

If you want to convert any type T vector to T* array, just replace the above int to T.

I will show you why does the above two works, for good understanding?

std::vector is a dynamic array essentially.

Main data member as below:

template <class T, class Alloc = allocator<T>>
class vector{
    public:
        typedef T          value_type;
        typedef T*         iterator;
        typedef T*         pointer;
        //.......
    private:
        pointer start_;
        pointer finish_;
        pointer end_of_storage_;

    public:
        vector():start_(0), finish_(0), end_of_storage_(0){}
    //......
}

The range (start_, end_of_storage_) is all the array memory the vector allocate;

The range(start_, finish_) is all the array memory the vector used;

The range(finish_, end_of_storage_) is the backup array memory.

For example, as to a vector vec. which has {9, 9, 1, 2, 3, 4} is pointer may like the below.

enter image description here

So &vec[0] = start_ (address.) (start_ is equivalent to int* array head)

In c++11 the data() member function just return start_

pointer data()
{ 
     return start_; //(equivalent to `value_type*`, array head)
}

How to change option menu icon in the action bar?

  1. Change your custom overflow icon of Actionbar in styles.xml

     <resources>
        <!-- Base application theme. -->
        <style name=“MyTheme" parent="@android:style/Theme.Holo">
           <!-- Pointer to Overflow style DONT forget! -->
           <item name="android:actionOverflowButtonStyle">@style/MyOverFlow</item>

            <item name="android:src">@drawable/ic_your_action_overflow</item>
        </style>
     </resources>
    
  2. Put custom theme "MyTheme" in application tag of AndroidManifest.xml

    <application
        android:name="com.example.android.MainApp"
        android:theme="@style/AppTheme">
    </application>

How to join multiple collections with $lookup in mongodb

According to the documentation, $lookup can join only one external collection.

What you could do is to combine userInfo and userRole in one collection, as provided example is based on relational DB schema. Mongo is noSQL database - and this require different approach for document management.

Please find below 2-step query, which combines userInfo with userRole - creating new temporary collection used in last query to display combined data. In last query there is an option to use $out and create new collection with merged data for later use.

create collections

db.sivaUser.insert(
{    
    "_id" : ObjectId("5684f3c454b1fd6926c324fd"),
        "email" : "[email protected]",
        "userId" : "AD",
        "userName" : "admin"
})

//"userinfo"
db.sivaUserInfo.insert(
{
    "_id" : ObjectId("56d82612b63f1c31cf906003"),
    "userId" : "AD",
    "phone" : "0000000000"
})

//"userrole"
db.sivaUserRole.insert(
{
    "_id" : ObjectId("56d82612b63f1c31cf906003"),
    "userId" : "AD",
    "role" : "admin"
})

"join" them all :-)

db.sivaUserInfo.aggregate([
    {$lookup:
        {
           from: "sivaUserRole",
           localField: "userId",
           foreignField: "userId",
           as: "userRole"
        }
    },
    {
        $unwind:"$userRole"
    },
    {
        $project:{
            "_id":1,
            "userId" : 1,
            "phone" : 1,
            "role" :"$userRole.role"
        }
    },
    {
        $out:"sivaUserTmp"
    }
])


db.sivaUserTmp.aggregate([
    {$lookup:
        {
           from: "sivaUser",
           localField: "userId",
           foreignField: "userId",
           as: "user"
        }
    },
    {
        $unwind:"$user"
    },
    {
        $project:{
            "_id":1,
            "userId" : 1,
            "phone" : 1,
            "role" :1,
            "email" : "$user.email",
            "userName" : "$user.userName"
        }
    }
])

what happens when you type in a URL in browser

First the computer looks up the destination host. If it exists in local DNS cache, it uses that information. Otherwise, DNS querying is performed until the IP address is found.

Then, your browser opens a TCP connection to the destination host and sends the request according to HTTP 1.1 (or might use HTTP 1.0, but normal browsers don't do it any more).

The server looks up the required resource (if it exists) and responds using HTTP protocol, sends the data to the client (=your browser)

The browser then uses HTML parser to re-create document structure which is later presented to you on screen. If it finds references to external resources, such as pictures, css files, javascript files, these are is delivered the same way as the HTML document itself.

Understanding MongoDB BSON Document size limit

Perhaps storing a blog post -> comments relation in a non-relational database is not really the best design.

You should probably store comments in a separate collection to blog posts anyway.

Round float to x decimals?

Default rounding in python and numpy:

In: [round(i) for i in np.arange(10) + .5]
Out: [0, 2, 2, 4, 4, 6, 6, 8, 8, 10]

I used this to get integer rounding to be applied to a pandas series:

import decimal

and use this line to set the rounding to "half up" a.k.a rounding as taught in school: decimal.getcontext().rounding = decimal.ROUND_HALF_UP

Finally I made this function to apply it to a pandas series object

def roundint(value):
    return value.apply(lambda x: int(decimal.Decimal(x).to_integral_value()))

So now you can do roundint(df.columnname)

And for numbers:

In: [int(decimal.Decimal(i).to_integral_value()) for i in np.arange(10) + .5]
Out: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10]

Redirect to Action by parameter mvc

Try this,

return RedirectToAction("ActionEventName", "Controller", new { ID = model.ID, SiteID = model.SiteID });

Here i mention you are pass multiple values or model also. That's why here i mention that.

Convert integer to hexadecimal and back again

Try the following to convert it to hex

public static string ToHex(this int value) {
  return String.Format("0x{0:X}", value);
}

And back again

public static int FromHex(string value) {
  // strip the leading 0x
  if ( value.StartsWith("0x", StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase)) {
    value = value.Substring(2);
  }
  return Int32.Parse(value, NumberStyles.HexNumber);
}

What is the difference between SAX and DOM?

You're comparing apples and pears. SAX is a parser that parses serialized DOM structures. There are many different parsers, and "event-based" refers to the parsing method.

Maybe a small recap is in order:

  • The document object model (DOM) is an abstract data model that describes a hierarchical, tree-based document structure; a document tree consists of nodes, namely element, attribute and text nodes (and some others). Nodes have parents, siblings and children and can be traversed, etc., all the stuff you're used to from doing JavaScript (which incidentally has nothing to do with the DOM).

  • A DOM structure may be serialized, i.e. written to a file, using a markup language like HTML or XML. An HTML or XML file thus contains a "written out" or "flattened out" version of an abstract document tree.

  • For a computer to manipulate, or even display, a DOM tree from a file, it has to deserialize, or parse, the file and reconstruct the abstract tree in memory. This is where parsing comes in.

Now we come to the nature of parsers. One way to parse would be to read in the entire document and recursively build up a tree structure in memory, and finally expose the entire result to the user. (I suppose you could call these parsers "DOM parsers".) That would be very handy for the user (I think that's what PHP's XML parser does), but it suffers from scalability problems and becomes very expensive for large documents.

On the other hand, event-based parsing, as done by SAX, looks at the file linearly and simply makes call-backs to the user whenever it encounters a structural piece of data, like "this element started", "that element ended", "some text here", etc. This has the benefit that it can go on forever without concern for the input file size, but it's a lot more low-level because it requires the user to do all the actual processing work (by providing call-backs). To return to your original question, the term "event-based" refers to those parsing events that the parser raises as it traverses the XML file.

The Wikipedia article has many details on the stages of SAX parsing.

Which Python memory profiler is recommended?

Muppy is (yet another) Memory Usage Profiler for Python. The focus of this toolset is laid on the identification of memory leaks.

Muppy tries to help developers to identity memory leaks of Python applications. It enables the tracking of memory usage during runtime and the identification of objects which are leaking. Additionally, tools are provided which allow to locate the source of not released objects.

What is secret key for JWT based authentication and how to generate it?

What is the secret key does, you may have already known till now. It is basically HMAC SH256 (Secure Hash). The Secret is a symmetrical key.

Using the same key you can generate, & reverify, edit, etc.

For more secure, you can go with private, public key (asymmetric way). Private key to create token, public key to verify at client level.

Coming to secret key what to give You can give anything, "sudsif", "sdfn2173", any length

you can use online generator, or manually write

I prefer using openssl

C:\Users\xyz\Desktop>openssl rand -base64 12
65JymYzDDqqLW8Eg

generate, then encode with base 64

C:\Users\xyz\Desktop>openssl rand -out openssl-secret.txt -hex 20

The generated value is saved inside the file named "openssl-secret.txt"

generate, & store into a file.

One thing is giving 12 will generate, 12 characters only, but since it is base 64 encoded, it will be (4/3*n) ceiling value.

How to rsync only a specific list of files?

This answer is not the direct answer for the question. But it should help you figure out which solution fits best for your problem.

When analysing the problem you should activate the debug option -vv

Then rsync will output which files are included or excluded by which pattern:

building file list ... 
[sender] hiding file FILE1 because of pattern FILE1*
[sender] showing file FILE2 because of pattern *

Then I reinitialized postgres services

postgres -D /usr/local/var/postgres

This worked for me.

How to force Docker for a clean build of an image

I would not recommend using --no-cache in your case.

You are running a couple of installations from step 3 to 9 (I would, by the way, prefer using a one liner) and if you don't want the overhead of re-running these steps each time you are building your image you can modify your Dockerfile with a temporary step prior to your wget instruction.

I use to do something like RUN ls . and change it to RUN ls ./ then RUN ls ./. and so on for each modification done on the tarball retrieved by wget

You can of course do something like RUN echo 'test1' > test && rm test increasing the number in 'test1 for each iteration.

It looks dirty, but as far as I know it's the most efficient way to continue benefiting from the cache system of Docker, which saves time when you have many layers...

Deleting rows with Python in a CSV file

You are very close; currently you compare the row[2] with integer 0, make the comparison with the string "0". When you read the data from a file, it is a string and not an integer, so that is why your integer check fails currently:

row[2]!="0":

Also, you can use the with keyword to make the current code slightly more pythonic so that the lines in your code are reduced and you can omit the .close statements:

import csv
with open('first.csv', 'rb') as inp, open('first_edit.csv', 'wb') as out:
    writer = csv.writer(out)
    for row in csv.reader(inp):
        if row[2] != "0":
            writer.writerow(row)

Note that input is a Python builtin, so I've used another variable name instead.


Edit: The values in your csv file's rows are comma and space separated; In a normal csv, they would be simply comma separated and a check against "0" would work, so you can either use strip(row[2]) != 0, or check against " 0".

The better solution would be to correct the csv format, but in case you want to persist with the current one, the following will work with your given csv file format:

$ cat test.py 
import csv
with open('first.csv', 'rb') as inp, open('first_edit.csv', 'wb') as out:
    writer = csv.writer(out)
    for row in csv.reader(inp):
        if row[2] != " 0":
            writer.writerow(row)
$ cat first.csv 
6.5, 5.4, 0, 320
6.5, 5.4, 1, 320
$ python test.py 
$ cat first_edit.csv 
6.5, 5.4, 1, 320

HTTP 400 (bad request) for logical error, not malformed request syntax

In my case:

I am getting 400 bad request because I set content-type wrongly. I changed content type then able to get response successfully.

header("Content-Type", "\"application/x-www-form-urlencoded\"").get(ClientResponse.class);

What is the difference between “int” and “uint” / “long” and “ulong”?

It's been a while since I C++'d but these answers are off a bit.

As far as the size goes, 'int' isn't anything. It's a notional value of a standard integer; assumed to be fast for purposes of things like iteration. It doesn't have a preset size.

So, the answers are correct with respect to the differences between int and uint, but are incorrect when they talk about "how large they are" or what their range is. That size is undefined, or more accurately, it will change with the compiler and platform.

It's never polite to discuss the size of your bits in public.

When you compile a program, int does have a size, as you've taken the abstract C/C++ and turned it into concrete machine code.

So, TODAY, practically speaking with most common compilers, they are correct. But do not assume this.

Specifically: if you're writing a 32 bit program, int will be one thing, 64 bit, it can be different, and 16 bit is different. I've gone through all three and briefly looked at 6502 shudder

A brief google search shows this: https://www.tutorialspoint.com/cprogramming/c_data_types.htm This is also good info: https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E19620-01/805-3024/lp64-1/index.html

use int if you really don't care how large your bits are; it can change.

Use size_t and ssize_t if you want to know how large something is.

If you're reading or writing binary data, don't use int. Use a (usually platform/source dependent) specific keyword. WinSDK has plenty of good, maintainable examples of this. Other platforms do too.

I've spent a LOT of time going through code from people that "SMH" at the idea that this is all just academic/pedantic. These ate the people that write unmaintainable code. Sure, it's easy to use type 'int' and use it without all the extra darn typing. It's a lot of work to figure out what they really meant, and a bit mind-numbing.

It's crappy coding when you mix int.

use int and uint when you just want a fast integer and don't care about the range (other than signed/unsigned).

How to resolve the "EVP_DecryptFInal_ex: bad decrypt" during file decryption

This message can also occur when you specify the incorrect decryption password (yeah, lame, but not quite obvious to realize this from the error message, huh?).

I was using the command line to decrypt the recent DataBase backup for my auxiliary tool and suddenly faced this issue.

Finally, after 10 mins of grief and plus reading through this question/answers I have remembered that the password is different and everything worked just fine with the correct password.

            c_kwargs = {}

Restarting cron after changing crontab file?

On CentOS (my version is 6.5) when editing crontab you must close the editor to reflect your changes in CRON.

crontab -e

After that command You can see that new entry appears in /var/log/cron

Sep 24 10:44:26 ***** crontab[17216]: (*****) BEGIN EDIT (*****)

But only saving crontab editor after making some changes does not work. You must leave the editor to reflect changes in cron. After exiting new entry appears in the log:

Sep 24 10:47:58 ***** crontab[17216]: (*****) END EDIT (*****)

From this point changes you made are visible to CRON.

Java Delegates?

It doesn't have an explicit delegate keyword as C#, but you can achieve similar in Java 8 by using a functional interface (i.e. any interface with exactly one method) and lambda:

private interface SingleFunc {
    void printMe();
}

public static void main(String[] args) {
    SingleFunc sf = () -> {
        System.out.println("Hello, I am a simple single func.");
    };
    SingleFunc sfComplex = () -> {
        System.out.println("Hello, I am a COMPLEX single func.");
    };
    delegate(sf);
    delegate(sfComplex);
}

private static void delegate(SingleFunc f) {
    f.printMe();
}

Every new object of type SingleFunc must implement printMe(), so it is safe to pass it to another method (e.g. delegate(SingleFunc)) to call the printMe() method.

How to avoid .pyc files?

You can set sys.dont_write_bytecode = True in your source, but that would have to be in the first python file loaded. If you execute python somefile.py then you will not get somefile.pyc.

When you install a utility using setup.py and entry_points= you will have set sys.dont_write_bytecode in the startup script. So you cannot rely on the "default" startup script generated by setuptools.

If you start Python with python file as argument yourself you can specify -B:

python -B somefile.py

somefile.pyc would not be generated anyway, but no .pyc files for other files imported too.

If you have some utility myutil and you cannot change that, it will not pass -B to the python interpreter. Just start it by setting the environment variable PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE:

What does it mean "No Launcher activity found!"

I had this same problem and it turns out I had a '\' instead of a '/' in the xml tag. It still gave the same error but just due to a syntax problem.

How to display alt text for an image in chrome

Various browsers (mis)handle this in various ways. Using title (an old IE 'standard') isn't particularly appropriate, since the title attribute is a mouseover effect. The jQuery solution above (Alexis) seems on the right track, but I don't think the 'error' occurs at a point where it could be caught. I've had success by replacing at the src with itself, and then catching the error:

$('img').each(function()
{
    $(this).error(function()
    {
        $(this).replaceWith(this.alt);
    }).attr('src',$(this).prop('src'));
});

This, as in the Alexis contribution, has the benefit of removing the missing img image.

macro run-time error '9': subscript out of range

When you get the error message, you have the option to click on "Debug": this will lead you to the line where the error occurred. The Dark Canuck seems to be right, and I guess the error occurs on the line:

Sheets("Sheet1").protect Password:="btfd"

because most probably the "Sheet1" does not exist. However, if you say "It works fine, but when I save the file I get the message: run-time error '9': subscription out of range" it makes me think the error occurs on the second line:

ActiveWorkbook.Save

Could you please check this by pressing the Debug button first? And most important, as Gordon Bell says, why are you using a macro to protect a workbook?

Calculating Page Table Size

Since the Logical Address space is 32-bit long that means program size is 2^32 bytes i.e. 4GB. Now we have the page size of 4KB i.e.2^12 bytes.Thus the number of pages in program are 2^20.(no. of pages in program = program size/page size).Now the size of page table entry is 4 byte hence the size of page table is 2^20*4 = 4MB(size of page table = no. of pages in program * page table entry size). Hence 4MB space is required in Memory to store the page table.

How to send control+c from a bash script?

ctrl+c and kill -INT <pid> are not exactly the same, to emulate ctrl+c we need to first understand the difference.

kill -INT <pid> will send the INT signal to a given process (found with its pid).

ctrl+c is mapped to the intr special character which when received by the terminal should send INT to the foreground process group of that terminal. You can emulate that by targetting the group of your given <pid>. It can be done by prepending a - before the signal in the kill command. Hence the command you want is:

kill -INT -<pid>

You can test it pretty easily with a script:

#!/usr/bin/env ruby

fork {
    trap(:INT) {
        puts 'signal received in child!'
        exit
    }
    sleep 1_000
}

puts "run `kill -INT -#{Process.pid}` in any other terminal window."
Process.wait

My Application Could not open ServletContext resource

Make sure your maven war plugin block in pom.xml includes all files (especially xml files) while building the war. But you don't need to include the .java files though.

        <includes>
          <include>**/*.*</include> <!--this line includes the xml files into the war, which will be found when it is exploded in server during deployment -->
        </includes>

How to assign an action for UIImageView object in Swift

Swift4 Code

Try this some new extension methods:

import UIKit

extension UIView {

    fileprivate struct AssociatedObjectKeys {
        static var tapGestureRecognizer = "MediaViewerAssociatedObjectKey_mediaViewer"
    }

    fileprivate typealias Action = (() -> Void)?


    fileprivate var tapGestureRecognizerAction: Action? {
        set {
            if let newValue = newValue {
                // Computed properties get stored as associated objects
                objc_setAssociatedObject(self, &AssociatedObjectKeys.tapGestureRecognizer, newValue, objc_AssociationPolicy.OBJC_ASSOCIATION_RETAIN)
            }
        }
        get {
            let tapGestureRecognizerActionInstance = objc_getAssociatedObject(self, &AssociatedObjectKeys.tapGestureRecognizer) as? Action
            return tapGestureRecognizerActionInstance
        }
    }


    public func addTapGestureRecognizer(action: (() -> Void)?) {
        self.isUserInteractionEnabled = true
        self.tapGestureRecognizerAction = action
        let tapGestureRecognizer = UITapGestureRecognizer(target: self, action: #selector(handleTapGesture))
        self.addGestureRecognizer(tapGestureRecognizer)
    }


    @objc fileprivate func handleTapGesture(sender: UITapGestureRecognizer) {
        if let action = self.tapGestureRecognizerAction {
            action?()
        } else {
            print("no action")
        }
    }

}

Now whenever we want to add a UITapGestureRecognizer to a UIView or UIView subclass like UIImageView, we can do so without creating associated functions for selectors!

Usage:

 profile_ImageView.addTapGestureRecognizer {
        print("image tapped")
    }

How to check if a variable is NULL, then set it with a MySQL stored procedure?

@last_run_time is a 9.4. User-Defined Variables and last_run_time datetime one 13.6.4.1. Local Variable DECLARE Syntax, are different variables.

Try: SELECT last_run_time;

UPDATE

Example:

/* CODE FOR DEMONSTRATION PURPOSES */
DELIMITER $$

CREATE PROCEDURE `sp_test`()
BEGIN
    DECLARE current_procedure_name CHAR(60) DEFAULT 'accounts_general';
    DECLARE last_run_time DATETIME DEFAULT NULL;
    DECLARE current_run_time DATETIME DEFAULT NOW();

    -- Define the last run time
    SET last_run_time := (SELECT MAX(runtime) FROM dynamo.runtimes WHERE procedure_name = current_procedure_name);

    -- if there is no last run time found then use yesterday as starting point
    IF(last_run_time IS NULL) THEN
        SET last_run_time := DATE_SUB(NOW(), INTERVAL 1 DAY);
    END IF;

    SELECT last_run_time;

    -- Insert variables in table2
    INSERT INTO table2 (col0, col1, col2) VALUES (current_procedure_name, last_run_time, current_run_time);
END$$

DELIMITER ;

Serialize Class containing Dictionary member

Create a serialization surrogate.

Example, you have a class with public property of type Dictionary.

To support Xml serialization of this type, create a generic key-value class:

public class SerializeableKeyValue<T1,T2>
{
    public T1 Key { get; set; }
    public T2 Value { get; set; }
}

Add an XmlIgnore attribute to your original property:

    [XmlIgnore]
    public Dictionary<int, string> SearchCategories { get; set; }

Expose a public property of array type, that holds an array of SerializableKeyValue instances, which are used to serialize and deserialize into the SearchCategories property:

    public SerializeableKeyValue<int, string>[] SearchCategoriesSerializable
    {
        get
        {
            var list = new List<SerializeableKeyValue<int, string>>();
            if (SearchCategories != null)
            {
                list.AddRange(SearchCategories.Keys.Select(key => new SerializeableKeyValue<int, string>() {Key = key, Value = SearchCategories[key]}));
            }
            return list.ToArray();
        }
        set
        {
            SearchCategories = new Dictionary<int, string>();
            foreach (var item in value)
            {
                SearchCategories.Add( item.Key, item.Value );
            }
        }
    }

onchange event on input type=range is not triggering in firefox while dragging

I'm posting this as an answer because it deserves to be it's own answer rather than a comment under a less useful answer. I find this method much better than the accepted answer since it can keep all the js in a separate file from the HTML.

Answer provided by Jamrelian in his comment under the accepted answer.

$("#myelement").on("input change", function() {
    //do something
});

Just be aware of this comment by Jaime though

Just note that with this solution, in chrome you will get two calls to the handler (one per event), so if you care for that, then you need to guard against it.

As in it will fire the event when you have stopped moving the mouse, and then again when you release the mouse button.

Update

In relation to the change event and input event causing the functionality to trigger twice, this is pretty much a non-issue.

If you have a function firing off on input, it is extremely unlikely that there will be a problem when the change event fires.

input fires rapidly as you drag a range input slider. Worrying about one more function call firing at the end is like worrying about a single drop of water compared to the ocean of water that is the input events.

The reason for even including the change event at all is for the sake of browser compatibility (mainly with IE).

Multiple IF statements between number ranges

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

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

Colorplot of 2D array matplotlib

Here is the simplest example that has the key lines of code:

import numpy as np 
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

H = np.array([[1, 2, 3, 4],
          [5, 6, 7, 8],
          [9, 10, 11, 12],
          [13, 14, 15, 16]])

plt.imshow(H, interpolation='none')
plt.show()
