Programs & Examples On #Nhibernate validator

NHibernate Validator is a powerful and extensible framework to validate objects using the .Net Platform. It is intended to be used to implement multi-layered data validation, where constraints are expressed in a single place and checked in various different layers of the application.

Help with packages in java - import does not work

Okay, just to clarify things that have already been posted.

You should have the directory com, containing the directory company, containing the directory example, containing the file MyClass.java.

From the folder containing com, run:

$ javac com\company\example\MyClass.java

Then:

$ java com.company.example.MyClass
Hello from MyClass!

These must both be done from the root of the source tree. Otherwise, javac and java won't be able to find any other packages (in fact, java wouldn't even be able to run MyClass).

A short example

I created the folders "testpackage" and "testpackage2". Inside testpackage, I created TestPackageClass.java containing the following code:

package testpackage;

import testpackage2.MyClass;

public class TestPackageClass {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println("Hello from testpackage.TestPackageClass!");
        System.out.println("Now accessing " + MyClass.NAME);
    }
}

Inside testpackage2, I created MyClass.java containing the following code:

package testpackage2;
public class MyClass {
    public static String NAME = "testpackage2.MyClass";
}

From the directory containing the two new folders, I ran:

C:\examples>javac testpackage\*.java

C:\examples>javac testpackage2\*.java

Then:

C:\examples>java testpackage.TestPackageClass
Hello from testpackage.TestPackageClass!
Now accessing testpackage2.MyClass

Does that make things any clearer?

How to negate specific word in regex?

I came across this forum thread while trying to identify a regex for the following English statement:

Given an input string, match everything unless this input string is exactly 'bar'; for example I want to match 'barrier' and 'disbar' as well as 'foo'.

Here's the regex I came up with

^(bar.+|(?!bar).*)$

My English translation of the regex is "match the string if it starts with 'bar' and it has at least one other character, or if the string does not start with 'bar'.

Git ignore file for Xcode projects

Based on this guide for Mercurial my .gitignore includes:

.DS_Store
*.swp
*~.nib

build/

*.pbxuser
*.perspective
*.perspectivev3

I've also chosen to include:

*.mode1v3
*.mode2v3

which, according to this Apple mailing list post, are "user-specific project settings".

And for Xcode 4:

In Java, what is the best way to determine the size of an object?

You could generate a heap dump (with jmap, for example) and then analyze the output to find object sizes. This is an offline solution, but you can examine shallow and deep sizes, etc.

Is it possible to set transparency in CSS3 box-shadow?

I suppose rgba() would work here. After all, browser support for both box-shadow and rgba() is roughly the same.

How to make a stable two column layout in HTML/CSS

I could care less about IE6, as long as it works in IE8, Firefox 4, and Safari 5

This makes me happy.

Try this: Live Demo

display: table is surprisingly good. Once you don't care about IE7, you're free to use it. It doesn't really have any of the usual downsides of <table>.

CSS:

#container {
    background: #ccc;
    display: table
}
#left, #right {
    display: table-cell
}
#left {
    width: 150px;
    background: #f0f;
    border: 5px dotted blue;
}
#right {
    background: #aaa;
    border: 3px solid #000
}

Create Django model or update if exists

If you're looking for "update if exists else create" use case, please refer to @Zags excellent answer


Django already has a get_or_create, https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/models/querysets/#get-or-create

For you it could be :

id = 'some identifier'
person, created = Person.objects.get_or_create(identifier=id)

if created:
   # means you have created a new person
else:
   # person just refers to the existing one

Get paragraph text inside an element

If you use eg. "id" you can do it this way:

_x000D_
_x000D_
   (function() {_x000D_
    let x = document.getElementById("idName");_x000D_
    let y = document.getElementById("liName");_x000D_
    _x000D_
    y.addEventListener('click', function(e) {_x000D_
        y.appendChild(x);_x000D_
    });_x000D_
_x000D_

Ruby: Easiest Way to Filter Hash Keys?

In Ruby, the Hash#select is a right option. If you work with Rails, you can use Hash#slice and Hash#slice!. e.g. (rails 3.2.13)

h1 = {:a => 1, :b => 2, :c => 3, :d => 4}

h1.slice(:a, :b)         # return {:a=>1, :b=>2}, but h1 is not changed

h2 = h1.slice!(:a, :b)   # h1 = {:a=>1, :b=>2}, h2 = {:c => 3, :d => 4}

How to specify a port to run a create-react-app based project?

If you don't want to set the environment variable, another option is to modify the scripts part of package.json from:

"start": "react-scripts start"

to

Linux (tested on Ubuntu 14.04/16.04) and MacOS (tested by @aswin-s on MacOS Sierra 10.12.4):

"start": "PORT=3006 react-scripts start"

or (may be) more general solution by @IsaacPak

"start": "export PORT=3006 react-scripts start"

Windows @JacobEnsor solution

"start": "set PORT=3006 && react-scripts start"

cross-env lib works everywhere. See Aguinaldo Possatto answer for details

Update due to the popularity of my answer: Currently I prefer to use environment variables saved in .env file(useful to store sets of variables for different deploy configurations in a convenient and readable form). Don't forget to add *.env into .gitignore if you're still storing your secrets in .env files. Here is the explanation of why using environment variables is better in the most cases. Here is the explanation of why storing secrets in environment is bad idea.

matplotlib has no attribute 'pyplot'

pyplot is a sub-module of matplotlib which doesn't get imported with a simple import matplotlib.

>>> import matplotlib
>>> print matplotlib.pyplot
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'pyplot'
>>> import matplotlib.pyplot
>>> 

It seems customary to do: import matplotlib.pyplot as plt at which time you can use the various functions and classes it contains:

p = plt.plot(...)

Better way to remove specific characters from a Perl string

You could use the tr instead:

       $p =~ tr/fo//d;

will delete every f and every o from $p. In your case it should be:

       $p =~ tr/\$#@~!&*()[];.,:?^ `\\\///d

See Perl's tr documentation.

tr/SEARCHLIST/REPLACEMENTLIST/cdsr

Transliterates all occurrences of the characters found (or not found if the /c modifier is specified) in the search list with the positionally corresponding character in the replacement list, possibly deleting some, depending on the modifiers specified.

[…]

If the /d modifier is specified, any characters specified by SEARCHLIST not found in REPLACEMENTLIST are deleted.

jQuery: how to change title of document during .ready()?

Like this:

$(document).ready(function ()
{
    document.title = "Hello World!";
});

Be sure to set a default-title if you want your site to be properly indexed by search-engines.

A little tip:

$(function ()
{
    // this is a shorthand for the whole document-ready thing
    // In my opinion, it's more readable 
});

Why does the 260 character path length limit exist in Windows?

As to why this still exists - MS doesn't consider it a priority, and values backwards compatibility over advancing their OS (at least in this instance).

A workaround I use is to use the "short names" for the directories in the path, instead of their standard, human-readable versions. So e.g. for C:\Program Files\ I would use C:\PROGRA~1\ You can find the short name equivalents using dir /x.

mappedBy reference an unknown target entity property

The mappedBy attribute is referencing customer while the property is mCustomer, hence the error message. So either change your mapping into:

/** The collection of stores. */
@OneToMany(mappedBy = "mCustomer", cascade = CascadeType.ALL, fetch = FetchType.LAZY)
private Collection<Store> stores;

Or change the entity property into customer (which is what I would do).

The mappedBy reference indicates "Go look over on the bean property named 'customer' on the thing I have a collection of to find the configuration."

jQuery Ajax File Upload

You can use method ajaxSubmit as follow :) when you select a file that need upload to server, form be submit to server :)

$(document).ready(function () {
    var options = {
    target: '#output',   // target element(s) to be updated with server response
    timeout: 30000,
    error: function (jqXHR, textStatus) {
            $('#output').html('have any error');
            return false;
        }
    },
    success: afterSuccess,  // post-submit callback
    resetForm: true
            // reset the form after successful submit
};

$('#idOfInputFile').on('change', function () {
    $('#idOfForm').ajaxSubmit(options);
    // always return false to prevent standard browser submit and page navigation
    return false;
});
});

Sql Server equivalent of a COUNTIF aggregate function

You could use a SUM (not COUNT!) combined with a CASE statement, like this:

SELECT SUM(CASE WHEN ISNULL(myColumn,0)=1 THEN 1 ELSE 0 END)
FROM AD_CurrentView

PHP: how can I get file creation date?

I know this topic is super old, but, in case if someone's looking for an answer, as me, I'm posting my solution.

This solution works IF you don't mind having some extra data at the beginning of your file.

Basically, the idea is to, if file is not existing, to create it and append current date at the first line. Next, you can read the first line with fgets(fopen($file, 'r')), turn it into a DateTime object or anything (you can obviously use it raw, unless you saved it in a weird format) and voila - you have your creation date! For example my script to refresh my log file every 30 days looks like this:

if (file_exists($logfile)) {
            $now = new DateTime();
            $date_created = fgets(fopen($logfile, 'r'));
            if ($date_created == '') {
                file_put_contents($logfile, date('Y-m-d H:i:s').PHP_EOL, FILE_APPEND | LOCK_EX);
            }
            $date_created = new DateTime($date_created);
            $expiry = $date_created->modify('+ 30 days');
            if ($now >= $expiry) {
                unlink($logfile);
            }
        }

Is there a way to delete created variables, functions, etc from the memory of the interpreter?

If you are in an interactive environment like Jupyter or ipython you might be interested in clearing unwanted var's if they are getting heavy.

The magic-commands reset and reset_selective is vailable on interactive python sessions like ipython and Jupyter

1) reset

reset Resets the namespace by removing all names defined by the user, if called without arguments.

in and the out parameters specify whether you want to flush the in/out caches. The directory history is flushed with the dhist parameter.

reset in out

Another interesting one is array that only removes numpy Arrays:

reset array

2) reset_selective

Resets the namespace by removing names defined by the user. Input/Output history are left around in case you need them.

Clean Array Example:

In [1]: import numpy as np
In [2]: littleArray = np.array([1,2,3,4,5])
In [3]: who_ls
Out[3]: ['littleArray', 'np']
In [4]: reset_selective -f littleArray
In [5]: who_ls
Out[5]: ['np']

How to insert Records in Database using C# language?

sql = "insert into Main (Firt Name, Last Name) values(textbox2.Text,textbox3.Text)";

Correct use of flush() in JPA/Hibernate

Actually, em.flush(), do more than just sends the cached SQL commands. It tries to synchronize the persistence context to the underlying database. It can cause a lot of time consumption on your processes if your cache contains collections to be synchronized.

Caution on using it.

private void urlShortcutToDesktop(string linkName, string linkUrl)
{
    string deskDir = Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.DesktopDirectory);

    using (StreamWriter writer = new StreamWriter(deskDir + "\\" + linkName + ".url"))
    {
        writer.WriteLine("[InternetShortcut]");
        writer.WriteLine("URL=" + linkUrl);
    }
}

Application shortcut

private void appShortcutToDesktop(string linkName)
{
    string deskDir = Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.DesktopDirectory);

    using (StreamWriter writer = new StreamWriter(deskDir + "\\" + linkName + ".url"))
    {
        string app = System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().Location;
        writer.WriteLine("[InternetShortcut]");
        writer.WriteLine("URL=file:///" + app);
        writer.WriteLine("IconIndex=0");
        string icon = app.Replace('\\', '/');
        writer.WriteLine("IconFile=" + icon);
    }
}

If you want to use some API specific functions then you will want to use the IShellLink interface as well as the IPersistFile interface (through COM interop).

Here is an article that goes into detail what you need to do it, as well as sample code.

Correct way to find max in an Array in Swift

var numbers = [1, 2, 7, 5];    
var val = sort(numbers){$0 > $1}[0];

Cannot use object of type stdClass as array?

Have same problem today, solved like this:

If you call json_decode($somestring) you will get an Object and you need to access like $object->key , but if u call json_decode($somestring, true) you will get an dictionary and can access like $array['key']

How do I get the value of a registry key and ONLY the value using powershell

Following code will enumerate all values for a certain Registry key, will sort them and will return value name : value pairs separated by colon (:):

$path = 'HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\.NETFramework';

Get-Item -Path $path | Select-Object -ExpandProperty Property | Sort | % {
    $command = [String]::Format('(Get-ItemProperty -Path "{0}" -Name "{1}")."{1}"', $path, $_);
    $value = Invoke-Expression -Command $command;
    $_ + ' : ' + $value; };

Like this:

DbgJITDebugLaunchSetting : 16

DbgManagedDebugger : "C:\Windows\system32\vsjitdebugger.exe" PID %d APPDOM %d EXTEXT "%s" EVTHDL %d

InstallRoot : C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\

How to "git clone" including submodules?

late answer

// git CLONE INCLUDE-SUBMODULES ADDRESS DESTINATION-DIRECTORY
git clone --recursive https://[email protected]/USERNAME/REPO.git DESTINATION_DIR

As I just spent a whole hour fiddling around with a friend: Even if you have Admin rights on BitBucket, always clone the ORIGINAL repository and use the password of the one who owns the repo. Annoying to find out that you ran into this minetrap :P

What are 'get' and 'set' in Swift?

The getting and setting of variables within classes refers to either retrieving ("getting") or altering ("setting") their contents.

Consider a variable members of a class family. Naturally, this variable would need to be an integer, since a family can never consist of two point something people.

So you would probably go ahead by defining the members variable like this:

class family {
   var members:Int
}

This, however, will give people using this class the possibility to set the number of family members to something like 0 or 1. And since there is no such thing as a family of 1 or 0, this is quite unfortunate.

This is where the getters and setters come in. This way you can decide for yourself how variables can be altered and what values they can receive, as well as deciding what content they return.

Returning to our family class, let's make sure nobody can set the members value to anything less than 2:

class family {
  var _members:Int = 2
  var members:Int {
   get {
     return _members
   }
   set (newVal) {
     if newVal >= 2 {
       _members = newVal
     } else {
       println('error: cannot have family with less than 2 members')
     }
   }
  }
}

Now we can access the members variable as before, by typing instanceOfFamily.members, and thanks to the setter function, we can also set it's value as before, by typing, for example: instanceOfFamily.members = 3. What has changed, however, is the fact that we cannot set this variable to anything smaller than 2 anymore.

Note the introduction of the _members variable, which is the actual variable to store the value that we set through the members setter function. The original members has now become a computed property, meaning that it only acts as an interface to deal with our actual variable.

Direct download from Google Drive using Google Drive API

I know this is an old question but I could not find a solution to this problem after some research, so I am sharing what worked for me.

I have written this C# code for one of my projects. It can bypass the scan virus warning programmatically. The code can probably be converted to Java.

And here's how you can use it:

// NOTE: FileDownloader is IDisposable!
FileDownloader fileDownloader = new FileDownloader();

// This callback is triggered for DownloadFileAsync only
fileDownloader.DownloadProgressChanged += ( sender, e ) => Console.WriteLine( "Progress changed " + e.BytesReceived + " " + e.TotalBytesToReceive );
// This callback is triggered for both DownloadFile and DownloadFileAsync
fileDownloader.DownloadFileCompleted += ( sender, e ) => Console.WriteLine( "Download completed" );

fileDownloader.DownloadFileAsync( "https://INSERT_DOWNLOAD_LINK_HERE", @"C:\downloadedFile.txt" );

How to set max width of an image in CSS

I see this hasn't been answered as final.

I see you have max-width as 100% and width as 600. Flip those.

A simple way also is:

     <img src="image.png" style="max-width:600px;width:100%">

I use this often, and then you can control individual images as well, and not have it on all img tags. You could CSS it also like below.

 .image600{
     width:100%;
     max-width:600px;
 }

     <img src="image.png" class="image600">

SharePoint : How can I programmatically add items to a custom list instance

This is how it was on the Microsoft site, with me just tweaking the SPSite and SPWeb since these might vary from environment to environment and it helps not to have to hard-code these:

using (SPSite oSiteCollection = new SPSite(SPContext.Current.Site.Url))
{
    using (SPWeb oWeb = oSiteCollection.OpenWeb(SPContext.Current.Web))
    {
        SPList oList = oWeb.Lists["Announcements"];
        // You may also use 
        // SPList oList = oWeb.GetList("/Lists/Announcements");
        // to avoid querying all of the sites' lists
        SPListItem oListItem = oList.Items.Add();
        oListItem["Title"] = "My Item";
        oListItem["Created"] = new DateTime(2004, 1, 23);
        oListItem["Modified"] = new DateTime(2005, 10, 1);
        oListItem["Author"] = 3;
        oListItem["Editor"] = 3;
        oListItem.Update();
    }
}

How can I resize an image dynamically with CSS as the browser width/height changes?

2018 and later solution:

Using viewport-relative units should make your life way easier, given we have the image of a cat:

cat

Now we want this cat inside our code, while respecting aspect ratios:

_x000D_
_x000D_
img {_x000D_
  width: 100%;_x000D_
  height: auto;_x000D_
}
_x000D_
<img src="https://www.petmd.com/sites/default/files/petmd-cat-happy-10.jpg" alt="cat">
_x000D_
_x000D_
_x000D_

So far not really interesting, but what if we would like to change the cats width to be the maximum of 50% of the viewport?

_x000D_
_x000D_
img {_x000D_
  width: 100%;_x000D_
  height: auto;_x000D_
  /* Magic! */_x000D_
  max-width: 50vw;_x000D_
}
_x000D_
<img src="https://www.petmd.com/sites/default/files/petmd-cat-happy-10.jpg" alt="cat">
_x000D_
_x000D_
_x000D_

The same image, but now restricted to a maximum width of 50vw vw (=viewport width) means the image will be X width of the viewport, depending on the digit provided. This also works for height:

_x000D_
_x000D_
img {_x000D_
  width: auto;_x000D_
  height: 100%;_x000D_
  max-height: 20vh;_x000D_
}
_x000D_
<img src="https://www.petmd.com/sites/default/files/petmd-cat-happy-10.jpg" alt="cat">
_x000D_
_x000D_
_x000D_

This restricts the height of the image to a maximum of 20% of the viewport.

How can I implement custom Action Bar with custom buttons in Android?

1 You can use a drawable

<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <item android:id="@+id/menu_item1"
        android:icon="@drawable/my_item_drawable"
        android:title="@string/menu_item1"
        android:showAsAction="ifRoom" />
</menu>

2 Create a style for the action bar and use a custom background:

<resources>
    <!-- the theme applied to the application or activity -->
    <style name="CustomActivityTheme" parent="@android:style/Theme.Holo">
        <item name="android:actionBarStyle">@style/MyActionBar</item>
        <!-- other activity and action bar styles here -->
    </style>
    <!-- style for the action bar backgrounds -->
    <style name="MyActionBar" parent="@android:style/Widget.Holo.ActionBar">
        <item name="android:background">@drawable/background</item>
        <item name="android:backgroundStacked">@drawable/background</item>
        <item name="android:backgroundSplit">@drawable/split_background</item>
    </style>
</resources>

3 Style again android:actionBarDivider

The android documentation is very usefull for that.

JavaScript push to array

It's not an array.

var json = {"cool":"34.33","alsocool":"45454"};
json.coolness = 34.33;

or

var json = {"cool":"34.33","alsocool":"45454"};
json['coolness'] = 34.33;

you could do it as an array, but it would be a different syntax (and this is almost certainly not what you want)

var json = [{"cool":"34.33"},{"alsocool":"45454"}];
json.push({"coolness":"34.33"});

Note that this variable name is highly misleading, as there is no JSON here. I would name it something else.

      {...rest}

      render={
        decisionFunc()
          ? trueComponent
          : falseComponent
      }
    />
  )
}

You can implement that like this

<DecisionRoute path="/signin" exact={true}
            trueComponent={redirectStart}
            falseComponent={SignInPage}
            decisionFunc={isAuth}
          />

decisionFunc just a function that return true or false

const redirectStart = props => <Redirect to="/orders" />

Find TODO tags in Eclipse

Is there an easy way to view all methods which contain this comment? Some sort of menu option?

Yes, choose one of the following:

  1. Go to Window ? Show View ? Tasks (Not TaskList). The new view will show up where the "Console" and "Problems" tabs are by default.

  2. As mentioned elsewhere, you can see them next to the scroll bar as little blue rectangles if you have the source file in question open.

  3. If you just want the // TODO Auto-generated method stub messages (rather than all // TODO messages) you should use the search function (Ctrl-F for ones in this file Search ? Java Search ? Search string for the ability to specify this workspace, that file, this project, etc.)

How do I check if a directory exists? "is_dir", "file_exists" or both?

I think realpath() may be the best way to validate if a path exist http://www.php.net/realpath

Here is an example function:

<?php
/**
 * Checks if a folder exist and return canonicalized absolute pathname (long version)
 * @param string $folder the path being checked.
 * @return mixed returns the canonicalized absolute pathname on success otherwise FALSE is returned
 */
function folder_exist($folder)
{
    // Get canonicalized absolute pathname
    $path = realpath($folder);

    // If it exist, check if it's a directory
    if($path !== false AND is_dir($path))
    {
        // Return canonicalized absolute pathname
        return $path;
    }

    // Path/folder does not exist
    return false;
}

Short version of the same function

<?php
/**
 * Checks if a folder exist and return canonicalized absolute pathname (sort version)
 * @param string $folder the path being checked.
 * @return mixed returns the canonicalized absolute pathname on success otherwise FALSE is returned
 */
function folder_exist($folder)
{
    // Get canonicalized absolute pathname
    $path = realpath($folder);

    // If it exist, check if it's a directory
    return ($path !== false AND is_dir($path)) ? $path : false;
}

Output examples

<?php
/** CASE 1 **/
$input = '/some/path/which/does/not/exist';
var_dump($input);               // string(31) "/some/path/which/does/not/exist"
$output = folder_exist($input);
var_dump($output);              // bool(false)

/** CASE 2 **/
$input = '/home';
var_dump($input);
$output = folder_exist($input);         // string(5) "/home"
var_dump($output);              // string(5) "/home"

/** CASE 3 **/
$input = '/home/..';
var_dump($input);               // string(8) "/home/.."
$output = folder_exist($input);
var_dump($output);              // string(1) "/"

Usage

<?php

$folder = '/foo/bar';

if(FALSE !== ($path = folder_exist($folder)))
{
    die('Folder ' . $path . ' already exist');
}

mkdir($folder);
// Continue do stuff

What precisely does 'Run as administrator' do?

When you log on Windows creates an access token. This identifies you, the groups you are a member of and your privileges. And note that whether a user is an administrator or not is determined by whether the user is a member of the Administrators group.

Without UAC, when you run a program it gets a copy of the access token, and this controls what the program can access.

With UAC, when you run a program it gets a restricted access token. This is the original access token with "Administrators" removed from the list of groups (and some other changes). Even though your user is a member of the Administrators group, the program can't use Administrator privileges.

When you select "Run as Administrator" and your user is an administrator the program is launched with the original unrestricted access token. If your user is not an administrator you are prompted for an administrator account, and the program is run under that account.

The request was aborted: Could not create SSL/TLS secure channel

"The request was aborted: Could not create SSL/TLS secure channel" exception can occur if the server is returning an HTTP 401 Unauthorized response to the HTTP request.

You can determine if this is happening by turning on trace-level System.Net logging for your client application, as described in this answer.

Once that logging configuration is in place, run the application and reproduce the error, then look in the logging output for a line like this:

System.Net Information: 0 : [9840] Connection#62912200 - Received status line: Version=1.1, StatusCode=401, StatusDescription=Unauthorized.

In my situation, I was failing to set a particular cookie that the server was expecting, leading to the server responding to the request with the 401 error, which in turn led to the "Could not create SSL/TLS secure channel" exception.

Refreshing data in RecyclerView and keeping its scroll position

Here is an option for people who use DataBinding for RecyclerView. I have var recyclerViewState: Parcelable? in my adapter. And I use a BindingAdapter with a variation of @DawnYu's answer to set and update data in the RecyclerView:

@BindingAdapter("items")
fun setRecyclerViewItems(
    recyclerView: RecyclerView,
    items: List<RecyclerViewItem>?
) {
    var adapter = (recyclerView.adapter as? RecyclerViewAdapter)
    if (adapter == null) {
        adapter = RecyclerViewAdapter()
        recyclerView.adapter = adapter
    }

    adapter.recyclerViewState = recyclerView.layoutManager?.onSaveInstanceState()
    // the main idea is in this call with a lambda. It allows to avoid blinking on data update
    adapter.submitList(items.orEmpty()) {
        adapter.recyclerViewState?.let {
            recyclerView.layoutManager?.onRestoreInstanceState(it)
        }
    }
}

Finally, the XML part looks like:

<androidx.recyclerview.widget.RecyclerView
    android:id="@+id/possible_trips_rv"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="0dp"
    app:items="@{viewState.yourItems}"
    app:layoutManager="androidx.recyclerview.widget.LinearLayoutManager"/>

Converting ArrayList to Array in java

We can convert ararylist to array using 3 mrthod

  1. public Object[] toArray() - it will return array of object

    Object[] array = list.toArray();

  2. public T[] toArray(T[] a) - In this way we will create array and toArray Take it as argument then return it

       String[] arr = new String[list.size()]; 
        arr = list.toArray(arr);
    
  3. Public get() method;

    Iterate ararylist and one by one add element in array.

Convert all first letter to upper case, rest lower for each word

One of the possible solution you might be interested in. Traversing an array of chars from right to left and vise versa in one loop.

public static string WordsToCapitalLetter(string value)
    {
        if (string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(value))
        {
            throw new ArgumentException("value");
        }

        int inputValueCharLength = value.Length;
        var valueAsCharArray = value.ToCharArray();

        int min = 0;
        int max = inputValueCharLength - 1;

        while (max > min)
        {
            char left = value[min];
            char previousLeft = (min == 0) ? left : value[min - 1];

            char right = value[max];
            char nextRight = (max == inputValueCharLength - 1) ? right : value[max - 1];

            if (char.IsLetter(left) && !char.IsUpper(left) && char.IsWhiteSpace(previousLeft))
            {
                valueAsCharArray[min] = char.ToUpper(left);

Python dictionary get multiple values

As I see no similar answer here - it is worth pointing out that with the usage of a (list / generator) comprehension, you can unpack those multiple values and assign them to multiple variables in a single line of code:

first_val, second_val = (myDict.get(key) for key in [first_key, second_key])

How to select multiple files with <input type="file">?

Copy and paste this into your html:

<input type="file" id="files" name="files[]" multiple />
<output id="list"></output>

<script>
function handleFileSelect(evt) {
var files = evt.target.files; // FileList object

// files is a FileList of File objects. List some properties.
var output = [];
for (var i = 0, f; f = files[i]; i++) {
  output.push('<li><strong>', escape(f.name), '</strong> (', f.type || 'n/a', ') - ',
              f.size, ' bytes, last modified: ',
              f.lastModifiedDate ? f.lastModifiedDate.toLocaleDateString() : 'n/a',
              '</li>');
}
document.getElementById('list').innerHTML = '<ul>' + output.join('') + '</ul>';
}

Send string to stdin

You can use one-line heredoc

cat <<< "This is coming from the stdin"

the above is the same as

cat <<EOF
This is coming from the stdin
EOF

or you can redirect output from a command, like

diff <(ls /bin) <(ls /usr/bin)

or you can read as

while read line
do
   echo =$line=
done < some_file

or simply

echo something | read param

Can IntelliJ IDEA encapsulate all of the functionality of WebStorm and PHPStorm through plugins?

All of the functionality of our lightweight IDEs can be found within IntelliJ IDEA (you need to install the corresponding plug-ins from the repository).

It includes support for all technologies developed for our more specific products such as Web/PhpStorm, RubyMine and PyCharm.

The specific feature missing from IntelliJ IDEA is simplified project creation ("Open Directory") used in lighter products as it is not applicable to the IDE that support such a wide range of languages and technologies. It also means that you can't create projects directly from the remote hosts in IDEA.

If you are missing any other feature that is available in lighter products, but is not available in IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate, you are welcome to report it and we'll consider adding it.

While PHP, Python and Ruby IDEA plug-ins are built from the same source code as used in PhpStorm, PyCharm and RubyMine, product release cycles are not synchronized. It means that some features may be already available in the lighter products, but not available in IDEA plug-ins at certain periods, they are added with the plug-in and IDEA updates later.

How to obtain the chat_id of a private Telegram channel?

I found the way to write in private channels.

  1. You should convert it to public with some @channelName
  2. Send message to this channel through Bot API

    https://api.telegram.org/bot111:222/sendMessage?chat_id=@channelName&text=123

  3. As response you will get info with chat_id of your channel.

    { "ok" : true, "result" : { "chat" : { "id" : -1001005582487, "title" : "Test Private Channel", "type" : "channel" }, "date" : 1448245538, "message_id" : 7, "text" : "123ds" } }

  4. Now you can convert Channel back to private (by deleting channel's link) and send message directly to this chat_id "-1001005582487"

    https://api.telegram.org/bot111:222/sendMessage?chat_id=-1001005582487&text=123

PHP pass variable to include

Split string into strings by length?

some_string="ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ"
x=3 
res=[some_string[y-x:y] for y in range(x, len(some_string)+x,x)]
print(res)

will produce

['ABC', 'DEF', 'GHI', 'JKL', 'MNO', 'PQR', 'STU', 'VWX', 'YZ']

Sum one number to every element in a list (or array) in Python

using List Comprehension:

>>> L = [1]*5
>>> [x+1 for x in L]
[2, 2, 2, 2, 2]
>>> 

which roughly translates to using a for loop:

>>> newL = []
>>> for x in L:
...     newL+=[x+1]
... 
>>> newL
[2, 2, 2, 2, 2]

or using map:

>>> map(lambda x:x+1, L)
[2, 2, 2, 2, 2]
>>> 

Checking Date format from a string in C#

You can use below IsValidDate():

 public static bool IsValidDate(string value, string[] dateFormats)
    {
        DateTime tempDate;
        bool validDate = DateTime.TryParseExact(value, dateFormats, DateTimeFormatInfo.InvariantInfo, DateTimeStyles.None, ref tempDate);
        if (validDate)
            return true;
        else
            return false;
    }

And you can pass in the value and date formats. For example:

var data = "02-08-2019";
var dateFormats = {"dd.MM.yyyy", "dd-MM-yyyy", "dd/MM/yyyy"}

if (IsValidDate(data, dateFormats))
{
    //Do something
}
else
{
    //Do something else
}

Sending email in .NET through Gmail

Google may block sign in attempts from some apps or devices that do not use modern security standards. Since these apps and devices are easier to break into, blocking them helps keep your account safer.

Some examples of apps that do not support the latest security standards include:

  • The Mail app on your iPhone or iPad with iOS 6 or below
  • The Mail app on your Windows phone preceding the 8.1 release
  • Some Desktop mail clients like Microsoft Outlook and Mozilla Thunderbird

Therefore, you have to enable Less Secure Sign-In in your google account.

After sign into google account, go to:

https://myaccount.google.com/lesssecureapps
or
https://www.google.com/settings/security/lesssecureapps

In C#, you can use the following code:

using (MailMessage mail = new MailMessage())
{
    mail.From = new MailAddress("[email protected]");
    mail.To.Add("[email protected]");
    mail.Subject = "Hello World";
    mail.Body = "<h1>Hello</h1>";
    mail.IsBodyHtml = true;
    mail.Attachments.Add(new Attachment("C:\\file.zip"));

    using (SmtpClient smtp = new SmtpClient("smtp.gmail.com", 587))
    {
        smtp.Credentials = new NetworkCredential("[email protected]", "password");
        smtp.EnableSsl = true;
        smtp.Send(mail);
    }
}

Eclipse CDT: Symbol 'cout' could not be resolved

I had the same issue using Eclipse CDT (Kepler) on Windows with Cygwin installed. After pointing the project properties at every Cygwin include I could think of, it still couldn't find cout.

The final missing piece turned out to be C:cygwin64\lib\gcc\x86_64-pc-cygwin\4.8.2\install-tool\include.

To sum up:

  • Right click on the project
  • Choose Properties
  • Navigate to C/C++ General > Paths and Symbols > Includes tab
  • Click Add...
  • Click File system...
  • Browse to the location of your Cygwin lib\gcc\x86_64-pc-cygwin\4.8.2\install-tool\include
  • Click OK

Here is what my project includes ended up looking like when it was all said and done: enter image description here

Input type for HTML form for integer

Prior to HTML5, input type="text" simply means a field to insert free text, regardless of what you want it be. that is the job of validations you would have to do in order to guarantee the user enters a valid number

If you're using HTML5, you can use the new input types, one of which is number that automatically validates the text input, and forces it to be a number

keep in mind though, that if you're building a server side app (php for example) you will still have to validate the input on that side (make sure it is really a number) since it's pretty easy to hack the html and change the input type, removing the browser validation

        int removeIndex
    )
    {
        ElementDefinitionImpl[] newElementDefList = new ElementDefinitionImpl[ oldList.Length - 1 ];

        int offset = 0;
        for ( int index = 0; index < oldList.Length; index++ )
        {
            ElementDefinitionImpl elementDef = oldList[ index ] as ElementDefinitionImpl;
            if ( index == removeIndex )
            {
                //  This is the one we want to remove, so we won't copy it.  But 
                //  every subsequent elementDef will by shifted down by one.
                offset = -1;
            }
            else
            {
                newElementDefList[ index + offset ] = elementDef;
            }
        }
        return newElementDefList;
    }

How do I add a new column to a Spark DataFrame (using PySpark)?

You can define a new udf when adding a column_name:

SQL Server Error : String or binary data would be truncated

this type of error generally occurs when you have to put characters or values more than that you have specified in Database table like in this case: you specify transaction_status varchar(10) but you actually trying to store
_transaction_status which contain 19 characters. that's why you faced this type of error in this code..

How to prepare a Unity project for git?

On the Unity Editor open your project and:

  1. Enable External option in Unity ? Preferences ? Packages ? Repository (only if Unity ver < 4.5)
  2. Switch to Visible Meta Files in Edit ? Project Settings ? Editor ? Version Control Mode
  3. Switch to Force Text in Edit ? Project Settings ? Editor ? Asset Serialization Mode
  4. Save Scene and Project from File menu.
  5. Quit Unity and then you can delete the Library and Temp directory in the project directory. You can delete everything but keep the Assets and ProjectSettings directory.

If you already created your empty git repo on-line (eg. github.com) now it's time to upload your code. Open a command prompt and follow the next steps:

cd to/your/unity/project/folder

git init

git add *

git commit -m "First commit"

git remote add origin [email protected]:username/project.git

git push -u origin master

You should now open your Unity project while holding down the Option or the Left Alt key. This will force Unity to recreate the Library directory (this step might not be necessary since I've seen Unity recreating the Library directory even if you don't hold down any key).

Finally have git ignore the Library and Temp directories so that they won’t be pushed to the server. Add them to the .gitignore file and push the ignore to the server. Remember that you'll only commit the Assets and ProjectSettings directories.

And here's my own .gitignore recipe for my Unity projects:

Get the current first responder without using a private API

Peter Steinberger just tweeted about the private notification UIWindowFirstResponderDidChangeNotification, which you can observe if you want to watch the firstResponder change.

Why is ZoneOffset.UTC != ZoneId.of("UTC")?

The answer comes from the javadoc of ZoneId (emphasis mine) ...

A ZoneId is used to identify the rules used to convert between an Instant and a LocalDateTime. There are two distinct types of ID:

  • Fixed offsets - a fully resolved offset from UTC/Greenwich, that uses the same offset for all local date-times
  • Geographical regions - an area where a specific set of rules for finding the offset from UTC/Greenwich apply

Most fixed offsets are represented by ZoneOffset. Calling normalized() on any ZoneId will ensure that a fixed offset ID will be represented as a ZoneOffset.

... and from the javadoc of ZoneId#of (emphasis mine):

This method parses the ID producing a ZoneId or ZoneOffset. A ZoneOffset is returned if the ID is 'Z', or starts with '+' or '-'.

The argument id is specified as "UTC", therefore it will return a ZoneId with an offset, which also presented in the string form:

System.out.println(now.withZoneSameInstant(ZoneOffset.UTC));
System.out.println(now.withZoneSameInstant(ZoneId.of("UTC")));

Outputs:

2017-03-10T08:06:28.045Z
2017-03-10T08:06:28.045Z[UTC]

As you use the equals method for comparison, you check for object equivalence. Because of the described difference, the result of the evaluation is false.

When the normalized() method is used as proposed in the documentation, the comparison using equals will return true, as normalized() will return the corresponding ZoneOffset:

Normalizes the time-zone ID, returning a ZoneOffset where possible.

now.withZoneSameInstant(ZoneOffset.UTC)
    .equals(now.withZoneSameInstant(ZoneId.of("UTC").normalized())); // true

As the documentation states, if you use "Z" or "+0" as input id, of will return the ZoneOffset directly and there is no need to call normalized():

now.withZoneSameInstant(ZoneOffset.UTC).equals(now.withZoneSameInstant(ZoneId.of("Z"))); //true
now.withZoneSameInstant(ZoneOffset.UTC).equals(now.withZoneSameInstant(ZoneId.of("+0"))); //true

To check if they store the same date time, you can use the isEqual method instead:

now.withZoneSameInstant(ZoneOffset.UTC)
    .isEqual(now.withZoneSameInstant(ZoneId.of("UTC"))); // true

Sample

System.out.println("equals - ZoneId.of(\"UTC\"): " + nowZoneOffset
        .equals(now.withZoneSameInstant(ZoneId.of("UTC"))));
System.out.println("equals - ZoneId.of(\"UTC\").normalized(): " + nowZoneOffset
        .equals(now.withZoneSameInstant(ZoneId.of("UTC").normalized())));
System.out.println("equals - ZoneId.of(\"Z\"): " + nowZoneOffset
        .equals(now.withZoneSameInstant(ZoneId.of("Z"))));
System.out.println("equals - ZoneId.of(\"+0\"): " + nowZoneOffset
        .equals(now.withZoneSameInstant(ZoneId.of("+0"))));
System.out.println("isEqual - ZoneId.of(\"UTC\"): "+ nowZoneOffset
        .isEqual(now.withZoneSameInstant(ZoneId.of("UTC"))));

Output:

equals - ZoneId.of("UTC"): false
equals - ZoneId.of("UTC").normalized(): true
equals - ZoneId.of("Z"): true
equals - ZoneId.of("+0"): true
isEqual - ZoneId.of("UTC"): true

Find Item in ObservableCollection without using a loop

I Don't know what do you mean exactly, but technially speaking, this is not possible without a loop.

May be you mean using a LINQ, like for example:

list.Where(x=>x.Title == title)

It's worth mentioning that the iteration over is not skipped, but simply wrapped into the LINQ query.

Hope this helps.

EDIT

In other words if you really concerned about performance, keep coding the way you already doing. Otherwise choose LINQ for more concise and clear syntax.

How to replace NaNs by preceding values in pandas DataFrame?

One thing that I noticed when trying this solution is that if you have N/A at the start or the end of the array, ffill and bfill don't quite work. You need both.

In [224]: df = pd.DataFrame([None, 1, 2, 3, None, 4, 5, 6, None])

In [225]: df.ffill()
Out[225]:
     0
0  NaN
1  1.0
...
7  6.0
8  6.0

In [226]: df.bfill()
Out[226]:
     0
0  1.0
1  1.0
...
7  6.0
8  NaN

In [227]: df.bfill().ffill()
Out[227]:
     0
0  1.0
1  1.0
...
7  6.0
8  6.0

Getting mouse position in c#

If you don't want to reference Forms you can use interop to get the cursor position:

using System.Runtime.InteropServices;
using System.Windows; // Or use whatever point class you like for the implicit cast operator

/// <summary>
/// Struct representing a point.
/// </summary>
[StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential)]
public struct POINT
{
    public int X;
    public int Y;

    public static implicit operator Point(POINT point)
    {
        return new Point(point.X, point.Y);
    }
}

/// <summary>
/// Retrieves the cursor's position, in screen coordinates.
/// </summary>
/// <see>See MSDN documentation for further information.</see>

Unix command to find lines common in two files

If the two files are not sorted yet, you can use:

comm -12 <(sort a.txt) <(sort b.txt)

and it will work, avoiding the error message comm: file 2 is not in sorted order when doing comm -12 a.txt b.txt.

Android on-screen keyboard auto popping up

Making an asynchronous task in Flask

Threading is another possible solution. Although the Celery based solution is better for applications at scale, if you are not expecting too much traffic on the endpoint in question, threading is a viable alternative.

This solution is based on Miguel Grinberg's PyCon 2016 Flask at Scale presentation, specifically slide 41 in his slide deck. His code is also available on github for those interested in the original source.

From a user perspective the code works as follows:

  1. You make a call to the endpoint that performs the long running task.
  2. This endpoint returns 202 Accepted with a link to check on the task status.
  3. Calls to the status link returns 202 while the taks is still running, and returns 200 (and the result) when the task is complete.

To convert an api call to a background task, simply add the @async_api decorator.

Here is a fully contained example:

from flask import Flask, g, abort, current_app, request, url_for
from werkzeug.exceptions import HTTPException, InternalServerError
from flask_restful import Resource, Api
from datetime import datetime
from functools import wraps

How to check in Javascript if one element is contained within another

I came across a wonderful piece of code to check whether or not an element is a child of another element. I have to use this because IE doesn't support the .contains element method. Hope this will help others as well.

Below is the function:

function isChildOf(childObject, containerObject) {
  var returnValue = false;
  var currentObject;

  if (typeof containerObject === 'string') {
    containerObject = document.getElementById(containerObject);
  }
  if (typeof childObject === 'string') {
    childObject = document.getElementById(childObject);
  }

  currentObject = childObject.parentNode;

  while (currentObject !== undefined) {
    if (currentObject === document.body) {
      break;
    }

    if (currentObject.id == containerObject.id) {
      returnValue = true;
      break;
    }

    // Move up the hierarchy
    currentObject = currentObject.parentNode;
  }

  return returnValue;
}

Loop Through Each HTML Table Column and Get the Data using jQuery

When you create your table, put your td with class = "suma"

$(function(){   

   //funcion suma todo

   var sum = 0;
   $('.suma').each(function(x,y){
       sum += parseInt($(this).text());                                   
   })           
   $('#lblTotal').text(sum);   

   // funcion suma por check                                           

    $( "input:checkbox").change(function(){
    if($(this).is(':checked')){     
        $(this).parent().parent().find('td:last').addClass('suma2');
   }else{       
        $(this).parent().parent().find('td:last').removeClass('suma2');
   }    
   suma2Total();                                                           
   })                                                      

   function suma2Total(){
      var sum2 = 0;
      $('.suma2').each(function(x,y){
        sum2 += parseInt($(this).text());       
      })
      $('#lblTotal2').text(sum2);                                              
   }

How to slice an array in Bash

See the Parameter Expansion section in the Bash man page. A[@] returns the contents of the array, :1:2 takes a slice of length 2, starting at index 1.

A=( foo bar "a  b c" 42 )
B=("${A[@]:1:2}")
C=("${A[@]:1}")       # slice to the end of the array
echo "${B[@]}"        # bar a  b c
echo "${B[1]}"        # a  b c
echo "${C[@]}"        # bar a  b c 42
echo "${C[@]: -2:2}"  # a  b c 42 # The space before the - is necesssary

Note that the fact that "a b c" is one array element (and that it contains an extra space) is preserved.

extract part of a string using bash/cut/split

What about sed? That will work in a single command:

sed 's#.*/\([^:]*\).*#\1#' <<<$string
  • The # are being used for regex dividers instead of / since the string has / in it.
  • .*/ grabs the string up to the last backslash.
  • \( .. \) marks a capture group. This is \([^:]*\).
    • The [^:] says any character _except a colon, and the * means zero or more.
  • .* means the rest of the line.
  • \1 means substitute what was found in the first (and only) capture group. This is the name.

Here's the breakdown matching the string with the regular expression:

        /var/cpanel/users/           joebloggs  :DNS9=domain.com joebloggs
sed 's#.*/                          \([^:]*\)   .*              #\1       #'

How to delete a specific line in a file?

Probably, you already got a correct answer, but here is mine. Instead of using a list to collect unfiltered data (what readlines() method does), I use two files. One is for hold a main data, and the second is for filtering the data when you delete a specific string. Here is a code:

main_file = open('data_base.txt').read()    # your main dataBase file
filter_file = open('filter_base.txt', 'w')
filter_file.write(main_file)
filter_file.close()
main_file = open('data_base.txt', 'w')
for line in open('filter_base'):
    if 'your data to delete' not in line:    # remove a specific string
        main_file.write(line)                # put all strings back to your db except deleted
    else: pass
main_file.close()

Hope you will find this useful! :)

Web API Put Request generates an Http 405 Method Not Allowed error

In my case the error 405 was invoked by static handler due to route ("api/images") conflicting with the folder of the same name ("~/images").

Why does JSON.parse fail with the empty string?

For a valid JSON string at least a "{}" is required. See more at the http://json.org/

Creating a .p12 file

The openssl documentation says that file supplied as the -in argument must be in PEM format.

Turns out that, contrary to the CA's manual, the certificate returned by the CA which I stored in myCert.cer is not PEM format rather it is PKCS7.

In order to create my .p12, I had to first convert the certificate to PEM:

openssl pkcs7 -in myCert.cer -print_certs -out certs.pem

and then execute

openssl pkcs12 -export -out keyStore.p12 -inkey myKey.pem -in certs.pem

Spring cannot find bean xml configuration file when it does exist

If this problem is still flummoxing you and you are developing using Eclipse, have a look at this Eclipse bug: Resources files from "src/main/resources" are not correctly included in classpath

Solution seems to be look at properties of project, Java build path, source folders. Delete the /src/main/resources dir and add it again. This causes Eclipse to be reminded it needs to copy these files to the classpath.

This bug affected me when using the "Neon" release of Eclipse. (And was very frustrating until I realized the simple fix just described)

Why Anaconda does not recognize conda command?

When you install anaconda on windows now, it doesn't automatically add Python or Conda to your path so you have to add it yourself.

If you don’t know where your conda and/or python is, you type the following commands into your anaconda prompt

enter image description here

Next, you can add Python and Conda to your path by using the setx command in your command prompt. enter image description here

Next close that command prompt and open a new one. Congrats you can now use conda and python

No route matches "/users/sign_out" devise rails 3

In general when you get "No route matches" but you think you have that route defined then double check the http verb / request method (whether its get, put, post, delete etc.) for that route.

If you run rake routes then you will see the expected method and you can compare this with the request log.

fail to change placeholder color with Bootstrap 3

With LESS the actual mixin is in vendor-prefixes.less

.placeholder(@color: @input-color-placeholder) {
...
}

This mixin is called in forms.less on line 133:

.placeholder();

Your solution in LESS is:

.placeholder(#fff);

Imho the best way to go. Just use Winless or a composer compiler like Gulp/Grunt works, too and even better/faster.

Colspan all columns

Another working but ugly solution : colspan="100", where 100 is a value larger than total columns you need to colspan.

According to the W3C, the colspan="0" option is valid only with COLGROUP tag.

Do I need to compile the header files in a C program?

Okay, let's understand the difference between active and passive code.

The active code is the implementation of functions, procedures, methods, i.e. the pieces of code that should be compiled to executable machine code. We store it in .c files and sure we need to compile it.

The passive code is not being execute itself, but it needed to explain the different modules how to communicate with each other. Usually, .h files contains only prototypes (function headers), structures.

An exception are macros, that formally can contain an active pieces, but you should understand that they are using at the very early stage of building (preprocessing) with simple substitution. At the compile time macros already are substituted to your .c file.

Another exception are C++ templates, that should be implemented in .h files. But here is the story similar to macros: they are substituted on the early stage (instantiation) and formally, each other instantiation is another type.

In conclusion, I think, if the modules formed properly, we should never compile the header files.

Egit rejected non-fast-forward

I had this same problem and I was able to fix it. afk5min was right, the problem is the branch that you pulled code from has since changed on the remote repository. Per the standard git practices(http://git-scm.com/book/en/Git-Basics-Working-with-Remotes), you need to (now) merge those changes at the remote repository into your local changes before you can commit. This makes sense, this forces you to take other's changes and merge them into your code, ensuring that your code continues to function with the other changes in place.

Anyway, on to the steps.

  1. Configure the 'fetch' to fetch the branch you originally pulled from.

  2. Fetch the remote branch.

  3. Merge that remote branch onto your local branch.

  4. Commit the (merge) change in your local repo.

  5. Push the change to the remote repo.

In detail...

  1. In eclipse, open the view 'Git Repositories'.

  2. Ensure you see your local repository and can see the remote repository as a subfolder. In my version, it's called Remotes, and then I can see the remote project within that.

  3. Look for the green arrow pointing to the left, this is the 'fetch' arrow. Right click and select 'Configure Fetch'.

  4. You should see the URI, ensure that it points to the remote repository.

  5. Look in the ref mappings section of the pop-up. Mine was empty. This will indicate which remote references you want to fetch. Click 'Add'.

  6. Type in the branch name you need to fetch from the remote repository. Mine was 'master' (btw, a dropdown here would be great!!, for now, you have to type it). Continue through the pop-up, eventually clicking 'Finish'.

  7. Click 'Save and Fetch'. This will fetch that remote reference.

  8. Look in the 'Branches' folder of your local repository. You should now see that remote branch in the remote folder. Again, I see 'master'.

  9. Right-Click on the local branch in the 'Local' folder of 'Branches', which is named 'master'. Select 'Merge', and then select the remote branch, which is named 'origin/master'.

  10. Process through the merge.

  11. Commit any changes to your local repository.

  12. Push your changes to the remote repository.

  13. Go have a tasty beverage, congratulating yourself. Take the rest of the day off.

How to split the name string in mysql?

You could use the common_schema and use the tokenize function. For more information about this, follow the links. Your code the would end up like:

call tokenize(name, ' ');

However, be aware that a space is not a reliable separator for first and last name. E.g. In Spain it is common to have two last names.

Simple search MySQL database using php

Just with the above answer I hope it was the problem.

mongodb/mongoose findMany - find all documents with IDs listed in array

Both node.js and MongoChef force me to convert to ObjectId. This is what I use to grab a list of users from the DB and fetch a few properties. Mind the type conversion on line 8.

// this will complement the list with userName and userPhotoUrl based on userId field in each item
augmentUserInfo = function(list, callback){
        var userIds = [];
        var users = [];         // shortcut to find them faster afterwards
        for (l in list) {       // first build the search array
            var o = list[l];
            if (o.userId) {
                userIds.push( new mongoose.Types.ObjectId( o.userId ) );           // for the Mongo query
                users[o.userId] = o;                                // to find the user quickly afterwards
            }
        }
        db.collection("users").find( {_id: {$in: userIds}} ).each(function(err, user) {
            if (err) callback( err, list);
            else {
                if (user && user._id) {
                    users[user._id].userName = user.fName;
                    users[user._id].userPhotoUrl = user.userPhotoUrl;
                } else {                        // end of list
                    callback( null, list );
                }
            }
        });
    }

make html text input field grow as I type?

If you are just interested in growing, you can update the width to scrollWidth, whenever the content of the input element changes.

document.querySelectorAll('input[type="text"]').forEach(function(node) {
  node.onchange = node.oninput = function() {
    node.style.width = node.scrollWidth+'px';
  };
});

But this will not shrink the element.

document.body.appendChild(i)

If your script is inside head tag in html file, try to put it inside body tag. CreateElement while script is inside head tag will give you a null warning

<head>
  <title></title>
</head>

<body>
  <h1>Game</h1>
  <script type="text/javascript" src="script.js"></script>
</body>

Ignore parent padding

The problem could come down to which box model you're using. Are you using IE?

When IE is in quirks mode, width is the outer width of your box, which means the padding will be inside. So the total area left inside the box is 100px - 2 * 10px = 80px in which case your 100px wide <hr> will not look right.

If you're in standards mode, width is the inner width of your box, and padding is added outside. So the total width of the box is 100px + 2 * 10px = 120px leaving exactly 100px inside the box for your <hr>.

To solve it, either adjust your CSS values for IE. (Check in Firefox to see if it looks okay there). Or even better, set a document type to kick the browser into strict mode - where also IE follows the standard box model.

Best way to check if a Data Table has a null value in it

You can null/blank/space Etc value using LinQ Use Following Query

   var BlankValueRows = (from dr1 in Dt.AsEnumerable()
                                  where dr1["Columnname"].ToString() == ""
                                  || dr1["Columnname"].ToString() == ""
                                   || dr1["Columnname"].ToString() == ""
                                  select Columnname);

Here Replace Columnname with table column name and "" your search item in above code we looking null value.

TypeScript enum to object array

I don't think the order can be guaranteed, otherwise it would be easy enough to slice the second half of Object.entries result and map from there.

The only (very minor) issues with the answers above is that

  • there is a lot of unnecessary type conversion between string and number.
  • the entries are iterated twice when a single iteration is just as clean and effective.
type StandardEnum = { [id: string]: number | string; [nu: number]: string;}

function enumToList<T extends StandardEnum> (enm: T) : { id: number; description: string }[] {
    return Object.entries(enm).reduce((accum, kv) => {
        if (typeof kv[1] === 'number') {
            accum.push({ id: kv[1], description: kv[0] })
        }
        return accum
    }, []) // if enum is huge, perhaps pre-allocate with new Array(entries.length / 2), however then push won't work, so tracking an index would also be required
}

Writing data to a local text file with javascript

Our HTML:

<div id="addnew">
    <input type="text" id="id">
    <input type="text" id="content">
    <input type="button" value="Add" id="submit">
</div>

<div id="check">
    <input type="text" id="input">
    <input type="button" value="Search" id="search">
</div>

JS (writing to the txt file):

function writeToFile(d1, d2){
    var fso = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");
    var fh = fso.OpenTextFile("data.txt", 8, false, 0);
    fh.WriteLine(d1 + ',' + d2);
    fh.Close();
}
var submit = document.getElementById("submit");
submit.onclick = function () {
    var id      = document.getElementById("id").value;
    var content = document.getElementById("content").value;
    writeToFile(id, content);
}

checking a particular row:

function readFile(){
    var fso = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");
    var fh = fso.OpenTextFile("data.txt", 1, false, 0);
    var lines = "";
    while (!fh.AtEndOfStream) {
        lines += fh.ReadLine() + "\r";
    }
    fh.Close();
    return lines;
}
var search = document.getElementById("search");
search.onclick = function () {
    var input   = document.getElementById("input").value;
    if (input != "") {
        var text    = readFile();
        var lines   = text.split("\r");
        lines.pop();
        var result;
        for (var i = 0; i < lines.length; i++) {
            if (lines[i].match(new RegExp(input))) {
                result = "Found: " + lines[i].split(",")[1];
            }
        }
        if (result) { alert(result); }
        else { alert(input + " not found!"); }
    }
}

Put these inside a .hta file and run it. Tested on W7, IE11. It's working. Also if you want me to explain what's going on, say so.

Removing Conda environment

You probably didn't fully deactivate the Conda environment - remember, the command you need to use with Conda is conda deactivate (for older versions, use source deactivate). So it may be wise to start a new shell and activate the environment in that before you try. Then deactivate it.

You can use the command

conda env remove -n ENV_NAME

to remove the environment with that name. (--name is equivalent to -n)

Note that you can also place environments anywhere you want using -p /path/to/env instead of -n ENV_NAME when both creating and deleting environments, if you choose. They don't have to live in your conda installation.

UPDATE, 30 Jan 2019: From Conda 4.6 onwards the conda activate command becomes the new official way to activate an environment across all platforms. The changes are described in this Anaconda blog post

Set style for TextView programmatically

if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.M)

Append text to input field

If you are planning to use appending more then once, you might want to write a function:

//Append text to input element
function jQ_append(id_of_input, text){
    var input_id = '#'+id_of_input;
    $(input_id).val($(input_id).val() + text);
}

After you can just call it:

jQ_append('my_input_id', 'add this text');

How to find cube root using Python?

def cube(x):
    if 0<=x: return x**(1./3.)
    return -(-x)**(1./3.)

print (cube(-8))

Here is the full answer for both negative and positive numbers.

>>> 
2.0
-2.0

How to echo (or print) to the js console with php

This will work with either an array, an object or a variable and also escapes the special characters that may break your JS :

function debugToConsole($msg) { 
        echo "<script>console.log(".json_encode($msg).")</script>";
}

Edit : Added json_encode to the echo statement. This will prevent your script from breaking if there are quotes in your $msg variable.

Using CSS :before and :after pseudo-elements with inline CSS?

as mentioned above: its not possible to call a css pseudo-class / -element inline. what i now did, is: give your element a unique identifier, f.ex. an id or a unique class. and write a fitting <style> element

<style>#id29:before { content: "*";}</style>
<article id="id29">
  <!-- something -->
</article>

fugly, but what inline css isnt..?

Why doesn't RecyclerView have onItemClickListener()?

Check this one in which I have implemented all the things with a proper way

RecyclerViewHolder Class

public class RecyclerViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder  {

    //view holder is for girdview as we used in the listView
    public ImageView imageView,imageView2;
    public RecyclerViewHolder(View itemView) {
        super(itemView);
        this.imageView=(ImageView)itemView.findViewById(R.id.image);
    }

}

Adapter

public class RecyclerView_Adapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter<RecyclerViewHolder> {

    //RecyclerView will extend to recayclerview Adapter
    private ArrayList<ModelClass> arrayList;
    private Context context;
    private static RecyclerViewClickListener itemListener;
    //constructor of the RecyclerView Adapter
    RecyclerView_Adapter(Context context,ArrayList<ModelClass> arrayList,RecyclerViewClickListener itemListener){
        this.context=context;
        this.arrayList=arrayList;
        this.itemListener=itemListener;
    }

    @Override
    public RecyclerViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup parent, int viewType) {
        //this method will inflate the custom layout and return as viewHolder
        LayoutInflater layoutInflater=LayoutInflater.from(parent.getContext());
        ViewGroup mainGroup=(ViewGroup) layoutInflater.inflate(R.layout.single_item,parent,false);
        RecyclerViewHolder listHolder=new RecyclerViewHolder(mainGroup);

        return listHolder;
    }

    @Override
    public void onBindViewHolder(RecyclerViewHolder holder, final int position) {

        final ModelClass modelClass=arrayList.get(position);
        //holder
        RecyclerViewHolder mainHolder=(RecyclerViewHolder)holder;
        //convert the drawable image into bitmap
        Bitmap image= BitmapFactory.decodeResource(context.getResources(),modelClass.getImage());
        //set the image into imageView
        mainHolder.imageView.setImageBitmap(image);
        //to handle on click event when clicked on the recyclerview item and
        // get it through the RecyclerViewHolder class we have defined the views there
        mainHolder.itemView.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                //get the position of the image which is clicked
             itemListener.recyclerViewListClicked(v,position);
            }
        });

    }

    @Override
    public int getItemCount() {
        return (null!=arrayList?arrayList.size():0);
    }
}

The interface

public interface RecyclerViewClickListener {

    //this is method to handle the event when clicked on the image in Recyclerview
    public void recyclerViewListClicked(View v,int position);
}

//and to call this method in activity
RecyclerView_Adapter adapter=new RecyclerView_Adapter(Wallpaper.this,arrayList,this);
        recyclerView.setAdapter(adapter);
        adapter.notifyDataSetChanged();


    @Override
    public void  recyclerViewListClicked(View v,int position){

        imageView.setImageResource(wallpaperImages[position]);

    }

Set element focus in angular way

I prefered to use an expression. This lets me do stuff like focus on a button when a field is valid, reaches a certain length, and of course after load.

<button type="button" moo-focus-expression="form.phone.$valid">
<button type="submit" moo-focus-expression="smsconfirm.length == 6">
<input type="text" moo-focus-expression="true">

On a complex form this also reduces need to create additional scope variables for the purposes of focusing.

Java: How to get input from System.console()

The following takes athspk's answer and makes it into one that loops continually until the user types "exit". I've also written a followup answer where I've taken this code and made it testable.

import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStreamReader;

public class LoopingConsoleInputExample {

   public static final String EXIT_COMMAND = "exit";

   public static void main(final String[] args) throws IOException {
      BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
      System.out.println("Enter some text, or '" + EXIT_COMMAND + "' to quit");

      while (true) {

         System.out.print("> ");
         String input = br.readLine();
         System.out.println(input);

         if (input.length() == EXIT_COMMAND.length() && input.toLowerCase().equals(EXIT_COMMAND)) {
            System.out.println("Exiting.");
            return;
         }

         System.out.println("...response goes here...");
      }
   }
}

Example output:

Enter some text, or 'exit' to quit
> one
one
...response goes here...
> two
two
...response goes here...
> three
three
...response goes here...
> exit
exit
Exiting.

How to obtain the total numbers of rows from a CSV file in Python?

SQLite Query in Android to count rows

how to get count column

final String DATABASE_COMPARE = "select count(*) from users where uname="+loginname+ "and pwd="+loginpass;

This is the most concise and precise alternative. No need to handle cursors and their closing.

How to parse JSON and access results

If your $result variable is a string json like, you must use json_decode function to parse it as an object or array:

$result = '{"Cancelled":false,"MessageID":"402f481b-c420-481f-b129-7b2d8ce7cf0a","Queued":false,"SMSError":2,"SMSIncomingMessages":null,"Sent":false,"SentDateTime":"\/Date(-62135578800000-0500)\/"}';
$json = json_decode($result, true);
print_r($json);

OUTPUT

Array
(
    [Cancelled] => 
    [MessageID] => 402f481b-c420-481f-b129-7b2d8ce7cf0a
    [Queued] => 
    [SMSError] => 2
    [SMSIncomingMessages] => 
    [Sent] => 
    [SentDateTime] => /Date(-62135578800000-0500)/
)

Now you can work with $json variable as an array:

echo $json['MessageID'];
echo $json['SMSError'];
// other stuff

How to use not contains() in xpath?

I need to select every production with a category that doesn't contain "Business"

Although I upvoted @Arran's answer as correct, I would also add this... Strictly interpreted, the OP's specification would be implemented as

//production[category[not(contains(., 'Business'))]]

rather than

//production[not(contains(category, 'Business'))]

The latter selects every production whose first category child doesn't contain "Business". The two XPath expressions will behave differently when a production has no category children, or more than one.

It doesn't make any difference in practice as long as every <production> has exactly one <category> child, as in your short example XML. Whether you can always count on that being true or not, depends on various factors, such as whether you have a schema that enforces that constraint. Personally, I would go for the more robust option, since it doesn't "cost" much... assuming your requirement as stated in the question is really correct (as opposed to e.g. 'select every production that doesn't have a category that contains "Business"').

Changing .gitconfig location on Windows

Solution without having to change Windows HOME variable
OS: Windows 10
git version: 2.27.0.windows.1

I use portable version of Git, so all my config files are on my pen-drive(E:). This is what worked for me:

  1. Download portable Git from https://git-scm.com/. Run the file and install it in the required location. I installed it in E:\git.
  2. Run git-bash.exe from E:\git.
  3. I wanted to put .gitconfig and other bash files in E, so I created a folder called home where I want them all in.
    mkdir home
  4. Go to etc folder and open the file called profile (In my case, it's E:\git\etc\profile)
  5. Add absolute path to the home directory we created (or to the directory where you want to have your .gitconfig file located) at the end of the profile file.
    HOME="E:\git\home"

Now it no longer searches in the C:\Users<username> directory for .gitconfig but only looks in your set path above.

$ git config --global --list
fatal: unable to read config file 'E:/git/home/.gitconfig': No such file or directory

It gave an error because there isn't a .gitconfig file there yet. This is just to demonstrate that we have successfully changed the location of the .gitconfig file without changing the HOME directory in Windows.

100% height minus header?

As mentioned in the comments height:100% relies on the height of the parent container being explicitly defined. One way to achieve what you want is to use absolute/relative positioning, and specifying the left/right/top/bottom properties to "stretch" the content out to fill the available space. I have implemented what I gather you want to achieve in jsfiddle. Try resizing the Result window and you will see the content resizes automatically.

The limitation of this approach in your case is that you have to specify an explicit margin-top on the parent container to offset its contents down to make room for the header content. You can make it dynamic if you throw in javascript though.

"A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time" using WebClient

I had this problem. Code worked fine when running locally but not when on server. Using psPing (https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/psping.aspx) I realised the applications port wasn't returning anything. Turned out to be a firewall issue. I hadn't enabled my applications port in the Windows Firewall.

Administrative Tools > Windows Firewall with Advanced Security added my applications port to the Inbound Rules and it started working.

Somehow the application port number had got changed, so took a while to figure out what was going on - so thought I'd share this possibility in case it saves someone else time...

What does '--set-upstream' do?

When you push to a remote and you use the --set-upstream flag git sets the branch you are pushing to as the remote tracking branch of the branch you are pushing.

Adding a remote tracking branch means that git then knows what you want to do when you git fetch, git pull or git push in future. It assumes that you want to keep the local branch and the remote branch it is tracking in sync and does the appropriate thing to achieve this.

You could achieve the same thing with git branch --set-upstream-to or git checkout --track. See the git help pages on tracking branches for more information.

How can I convert a dictionary into a list of tuples?

By keys() and values() methods of dictionary and zip.

zip will return a list of tuples which acts like an ordered dictionary.

Demo:

>>> d = { 'a': 1, 'b': 2, 'c': 3 }
>>> zip(d.keys(), d.values())
[('a', 1), ('c', 3), ('b', 2)]
>>> zip(d.values(), d.keys())
[(1, 'a'), (3, 'c'), (2, 'b')]

PHP: How can I determine if a variable has a value that is between two distinct constant values?

}

How to prevent caching of my Javascript file?

You can add a random (or datetime string) as query string to the url that points to your script. Like so:

<script type="text/javascript" src="test.js?q=123"></script> 

Every time you refresh the page you need to make sure the value of 'q' is changed.

AngularJs ReferenceError: angular is not defined

I think this will happen if you'll use 'async defer' for (the file that contains the filter) while working with angularjs:

<script src="js/filter.js" type="text/javascript" async defer></script>

if you do, just remove 'async defer'.

Numpy: Get random set of rows from 2D array

I see permutation has been suggested. In fact it can be made into one line:

array([[0, 3, 0],
       [3, 1, 2]])

Get the content of a sharepoint folder with Excel VBA

IMHO the coolest way is to go via WebDAV (without Network Folder, as this is often not permitted). This can be accomplished via ActiveX Data Objects as layed out in this excellent article excellent article (code can be used directly in Excel, used the concept recently).

Hope this helps!

Accessing private member variables from prototype-defined functions

see Doug Crockford's page on this. You have to do it indirectly with something that can access the scope of the private variable.

another example:

Incrementer = function(init) {
  var counter = init || 0;  // "counter" is a private variable
  this._increment = function() { return counter++; }
  this._set = function(x) { counter = x; }
}
Incrementer.prototype.increment = function() { return this._increment(); }
Incrementer.prototype.set = function(x) { return this._set(x); }

use case:

js>i = new Incrementer(100);
[object Object]
js>i.increment()
100
js>i.increment()
101
js>i.increment()
102
js>i.increment()
103
js>i.set(-44)
js>i.increment()

String to HtmlDocument

For those who don't want to use HTML agility pack and want to get HtmlDocument from string using native .net code only here is a good article on how to convert string to HtmlDocument

Here is the code block to use

public System.Windows.Forms.HtmlDocument GetHtmlDocument(string html)
        {
            WebBrowser browser = new WebBrowser();
            browser.ScriptErrorsSuppressed = true;
            browser.DocumentText = html;
            browser.Document.OpenNew(true);
            browser.Document.Write(html);
            browser.Refresh();
            return browser.Document;
        }

Python: slicing a multi-dimensional array

If you use numpy, this is easy:

slice = arr[:2,:2]

or if you want the 0's,

slice = arr[0:2,0:2]

You'll get the same result.

*note that slice is actually the name of a builtin-type. Generally, I would advise giving your object a different "name".


Another way, if you're working with lists of lists*:

slice = [arr[i][0:2] for i in range(0,2)]

(Note that the 0's here are unnecessary: [arr[i][:2] for i in range(2)] would also work.).

What I did here is that I take each desired row 1 at a time (arr[i]). I then slice the columns I want out of that row and add it to the list that I'm building.

If you naively try: arr[0:2] You get the first 2 rows which if you then slice again arr[0:2][0:2], you're just slicing the first two rows over again.

*This actually works for numpy arrays too, but it will be slow compared to the "native" solution I posted above.

Catch an exception thrown by an async void method

This blog explains your problem neatly Async Best Practices.

The gist of it being you shouldn't use void as return for an async method, unless it's an async event handler, this is bad practice because it doesn't allow exceptions to be caught ;-).

Best practice would be to change the return type to Task. Also, try to code async all the way trough, make every async method call and be called from async methods. Except for a Main method in a console, which can't be async (before C# 7.1).

You will run into deadlocks with GUI and ASP.NET applications if you ignore this best practice. The deadlock occurs because these applications runs on a context that allows only one thread and won't relinquish it to the async thread. This means the GUI waits synchronously for a return, while the async method waits for the context: deadlock.

This behaviour won't happen in a console application, because it runs on context with a thread pool. The async method will return on another thread which will be scheduled. This is why a test console app will work, but the same calls will deadlock in other applications...

convert float into varchar in SQL server without scientific notation

Casting or converting to VARCHAR(MAX) or anything else did not work for me using large integers (in float fields) such as 167382981, which always came out '1.67383e+008'.

What did work was STR().

IN vs OR in the SQL WHERE Clause

The best way to find out is looking at the Execution Plan.


I tried it with Oracle, and it was exactly the same.

CREATE TABLE performance_test AS ( SELECT * FROM dba_objects );

SELECT * FROM performance_test
WHERE object_name IN ('DBMS_STANDARD', 'DBMS_REGISTRY', 'DBMS_LOB' );

Even though the query uses IN, the Execution Plan says that it uses OR:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------    
| Id  | Operation         | Name             | Rows  | Bytes | Cost (%CPU)| Time     |    
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------    
|   0 | SELECT STATEMENT  |                  |     8 |  1416 |   163   (2)| 00:00:02 |    
|*  1 |  TABLE ACCESS FULL| PERFORMANCE_TEST |     8 |  1416 |   163   (2)| 00:00:02 |    
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------    

Predicate Information (identified by operation id):                                       
---------------------------------------------------                                       

   1 - filter("OBJECT_NAME"='DBMS_LOB' OR "OBJECT_NAME"='DBMS_REGISTRY' OR                
              "OBJECT_NAME"='DBMS_STANDARD')

How does bitshifting work in Java?

You can use e.g. this API if you would like to see bitString presentation of your numbers. Uncommons Math

Example (in jruby)

bitString = org.uncommons.maths.binary.BitString.new(java.math.BigInteger.new("12").toString(2))
bitString.setBit(1, true)
bitString.toNumber => 14

edit: Changed api link and add a little example

How to override application.properties during production in Spring-Boot?

I have found the following has worked for me:

java -jar my-awesome-java-prog.jar --spring.config.location=file:/path-to-config-dir/

with file: added.

LATE EDIT

Of course, this command line is never run as it is in production.

Rather I have

  • [possibly several layers of] shell scripts in source control with place holders for all parts of the command that could change (name of the jar, path to config...)
  • ansible deployment scripts that will deploy the shell scripts and replace the place holders by the actual value.

Couldn't load memtrack module Logcat Error

I had this issue too, also running on an emulator.. The same message was showing up on Logcat, but it wasn't affecting the functionality of the app. But it was annoying, and I don't like seeing errors on the log that I don't understand.

Anyway, I got rid of the message by increasing the RAM on the emulator.

I ran into similar problems when accessing the project files from different computers via a shared folder. In my case clean + reabuild did not help. Had to delete the bin and objects folders from the output directory.

UILabel with text of two different colors

My own solution was created a method like the next one:

-(void)setColorForText:(NSString*) textToFind originalText:(NSString *)originalString withColor:(UIColor*)color andLabel:(UILabel *)label{

NSMutableAttributedString *attString = [[NSMutableAttributedString alloc] initWithString:originalString];
NSRange range = [originalString rangeOfString:textToFind];

[attString addAttribute:NSForegroundColorAttributeName value:color range:range];

label.attributedText = attString;

if (range.location != NSNotFound) {
    [attString addAttribute:NSForegroundColorAttributeName value:color range:range];
}
label.attributedText = attString; }

It worked with just one different color in the same text but you can adapt it easily to more colores in the same sentence.

Use child_process.execSync but keep output in console

Unless you redirect stdout and stderr as the accepted answer suggests, this is not possible with execSync or spawnSync. Without redirecting stdout and stderr those commands only return stdout and stderr when the command is completed.

To do this without redirecting stdout and stderr, you are going to need to use spawn to do this but it's pretty straight forward:

var spawn = require('child_process').spawn;

//kick off process of listing files
var child = spawn('ls', ['-l', '/']);

//spit stdout to screen
child.stdout.on('data', function (data) {   process.stdout.write(data.toString());  });

//spit stderr to screen
child.stderr.on('data', function (data) {   process.stdout.write(data.toString());  });

child.on('close', function (code) { 
    console.log("Finished with code " + code);
});

I used an ls command that recursively lists files so that you can test it quickly. Spawn takes as first argument the executable name you are trying to run and as it's second argument it takes an array of strings representing each parameter you want to pass to that executable.

However, if you are set on using execSync and can't redirect stdout or stderr for some reason, you can open up another terminal like xterm and pass it a command like so:

var execSync = require('child_process').execSync;

execSync("xterm -title RecursiveFileListing -e ls -latkR /");

This will allow you to see what your command is doing in the new terminal but still have the synchronous call.

Unknown lifecycle phase "mvn". You must specify a valid lifecycle phase or a goal in the format <plugin-prefix>:<goal> or <plugin-group-id>

Sometimes this error comes because it's simply the wrong folder. :-(

It shall be the folder which contains the pom.xml.

What is offsetHeight, clientHeight, scrollHeight?

Offset Means "the amount or distance by which something is out of line". Margin or Borders are something which makes the actual height or width of an HTML element "out of line". It will help you to remember that :

  • offsetHeight is a measurement in pixels of the element's CSS height, including border, padding and the element's horizontal scrollbar.

On the other hand, clientHeight is something which is you can say kind of the opposite of OffsetHeight. It doesn't include the border or margins. It does include the padding because it is something that resides inside of the HTML container, so it doesn't count as extra measurements like margin or border. So :

  • clientHeight property returns the viewable height of an element in pixels, including padding, but not the border, scrollbar or margin.

ScrollHeight is all the scrollable area, so your scroll will never run over your margin or border, so that's why scrollHeight doesn't include margin or borders but yeah padding does. So:

  • scrollHeight value is equal to the minimum height the element would require in order to fit all the content in the viewport without using a vertical scrollbar. The height is measured in the same way as clientHeight: it includes the element's padding, but not its border, margin or horizontal scrollbar.

Order columns through Bootstrap4

2018 - Revisiting this question with the latest Bootstrap 4.

The responsive ordering classes are now order-first, order-last and order-0 - order-12

The Bootstrap 4 push pull classes are now push-{viewport}-{units} and pull-{viewport}-{units} and the xs- infix has been removed. To get the desired 1-3-2 layout on mobile/xs would be: Bootstrap 4 push pull demo (This only works pre 4.0 beta)


Bootstrap 4.1+

Since Bootstrap 4 is flexbox, it's easy to change the order of columns. The cols can be ordered from order-1 to order-12, responsively such as order-md-12 order-2 (last on md, 2nd on xs) relative to the parent .row.

<div class="container">
    <div class="row">
        <div class="col-3 col-md-6">
            <div class="card card-body">1</div>
        </div>
        <div class="col-6 col-md-12 order-2 order-md-12">
            <div class="card card-body">3</div>
        </div>
        <div class="col-3 col-md-6 order-3">
            <div class="card card-body">2</div>
        </div>
    </div>
</div>

Demo: Change order using order-* classes

Desktop (larger screens): enter image description here

Mobile (smaller screens): enter image description here

It's also possible to change column order using the flexbox direction utils...

<div class="container">
    <div class="row flex-column-reverse flex-md-row">
        <div class="col-md-8">
            2
        </div>
        <div class="col-md-4">
            1st on mobile
        </div>
    </div>
</div>

What is the difference between venv, pyvenv, pyenv, virtualenv, virtualenvwrapper, pipenv, etc?

Let's start with the problems these tools want to solve:

My system package manager don't have the Python versions I wanted or I want to install multiple Python versions side by side, Python 3.9.0 and Python 3.9.1, Python 3.5.3, etc

Then use pyenv.

I want to install and run multiple applications with different, conflicting dependencies.

Then use virtualenv or venv. These are almost completely interchangeable, the difference being that virtualenv supports older python versions and has a few more minor unique features, while venv is in the standard library.

I'm developing an /application/ and need to manage my dependencies, and manage the dependency resolution of the dependencies of my project.

Then use pipenv or poetry.

I'm developing a /library/ or a /package/ and want to specify the dependencies that my library users need to install

Then use setuptools.

I used virtualenv, but I don't like virtualenv folders being scattered around various project folders. I want a centralised management of the environments and some simple project management

Then use virtualenvwrapper. Variant: pyenv-virtualenvwrapper if you also use pyenv.


Not recommended

  • pyvenv. This is deprecated, use venv or virtualenv instead. Not to be confused with pipenv or pyenv.

How do I retrieve my MySQL username and password?

Although a strict, logical, computer science'ish interpretation of the op's question would be to require both "How do I retrieve my MySQL username" and "password" - I thought It might be useful to someone to also address the OR interpretation. In other words ...

1) How do I retrieve my MySQL username?

OR

2) password

This latter condition seems to have been amply addressed already so I won't bother with it. The following is a solution for the case "How do i retreive my MySQL username" alone. HIH.

To find your mysql username run the following commands from the mysql shell ...

SELECT User FROM mysql.user;

it will print a table of all mysql users.

getElementById returns null?

There could be many reason why document.getElementById doesn't work

  • You have an invalid ID

    ID and NAME tokens must begin with a letter ([A-Za-z]) and may be followed by any number of letters, digits ([0-9]), hyphens ("-"), underscores ("_"), colons (":"), and periods ("."). (resource: What are valid values for the id attribute in HTML?)

  • you used some id that you already used as <meta> name in your header (e.g. copyright, author... ) it looks weird but happened to me: if your 're using IE take a look at (resource: http://www.phpied.com/getelementbyid-description-in-ie/)

  • you're targeting an element inside a frame or iframe. In this case if the iframe loads a page within the same domain of the parent you should target the contentdocument before looking for the element (resource: Calling a specific id inside a frame)

  • you're simply looking to an element when the node is not effectively loaded in the DOM, or maybe it's a simple misspelling

I doubt you used same ID twice or more: in that case document.getElementById should return at least the first element

JQuery DatePicker ReadOnly

by making date picker input disabled achieve this but if you want to submit form data then its a problem.

so after lot of juggling this seems to me a perfect solution

1.make your HTML input readonly on some condition.

<input class="form-control date-picker" size="16" data-date-format="dd/mm/yyyy"
                       th:autocomplete="off"
                       th:name="birthDate" th:id="birthDate"
                       type="text" placeholder="dd/mm/jjjj"
                       th:value="*{#dates.format(birthDate,'dd/MM/yyyy')}"
                       th:readonly="${client?.isDisableForAoicStatus()}"/>

2. in your js in ready function check for readonly attribute.

 $(document).ready(function (e) {

            if( $(".date-picker").attr('readonly') == 'readonly') {
                $("#birthDate").removeClass('date-picker');
            }
     });

this will stop the calendar pop up invoking when you click on the readonly field.also this will not make any problem in submit data. But if you make the field disable this will not allow you to submit value.

UDP vs TCP, how much faster is it?

People say that the major thing TCP gives you is reliability. But that's not really true. The most important thing TCP gives you is congestion control: you can run 100 TCP connections across a DSL link all going at max speed, and all 100 connections will be productive, because they all "sense" the available bandwidth. Try that with 100 different UDP applications, all pushing packets as fast as they can go, and see how well things work out for you.

On a larger scale, this TCP behavior is what keeps the Internet from locking up into "congestion collapse".

Things that tend to push applications towards UDP:

  • Group delivery semantics: it's possible to do reliable delivery to a group of people much more efficiently than TCP's point-to-point acknowledgement.

  • Out-of-order delivery: in lots of applications, as long as you get all the data, you don't care what order it arrives in; you can reduce app-level latency by accepting an out-of-order block.

  • Unfriendliness: on a LAN party, you may not care if your web browser functions nicely as long as you're blitting updates to the network as fast as you possibly can.

But even if you care about performance, you probably don't want to go with UDP:

  • You're on the hook for reliability now, and a lot of the things you might do to implement reliability can end up being slower than what TCP already does.

  • Now you're network-unfriendly, which can cause problems in shared environments.

  • Most importantly, firewalls will block you.

You can potentially overcome some TCP performance and latency issues by "trunking" multiple TCP connections together; iSCSI does this to get around congestion control on local area networks, but you can also do it to create a low-latency "urgent" message channel (TCP's "URGENT" behavior is totally broken).

C# Syntax - Split String into Array by Comma, Convert To Generic List, and Reverse Order

What your missing here is that .Reverse() is a void method. It's not possible to assign the result of .Reverse() to a variable. You can however alter the order to use Enumerable.Reverse() and get your result

var x = "Tom,Scott,Bob".Split(',').Reverse().ToList<string>()

The difference is that Enumerable.Reverse() returns an IEnumerable<T> instead of being void return

Pull is not possible because you have unmerged files, git stash doesn't work. Don't want to commit

You can use git checkout <file> to check out the committed version of the file (thus discarding your changes), or git reset --hard HEAD to throw away any uncommitted changes for all files.

AppStore - App status is ready for sale, but not in app store

you must change Territory and click on save, after one minute your app will be available. No need to Remove from sale
