Adding ASP.NET MVC5 Identity Authentication to an existing project

I recommend IdentityServer.This is a .NET Foundation project and covers many issues about authentication and authorization.

Overview

IdentityServer is a .NET/Katana-based framework and hostable component that allows implementing single sign-on and access control for modern web applications and APIs using protocols like OpenID Connect and OAuth2. It supports a wide range of clients like mobile, web, SPAs and desktop applications and is extensible to allow integration in new and existing architectures.

For more information, e.g.

  • support for MembershipReboot and ASP.NET Identity based user stores
  • support for additional Katana authentication middleware (e.g. Google, Twitter, Facebook etc)
  • support for EntityFramework based persistence of configuration
  • support for WS-Federation
  • extensibility

jQuery: Check if special characters exists in string

var specialChars = "<>@!#$%^&*()_+[]{}?:;|'\"\\,./~`-="
var check = function(string){
    for(i = 0; i < specialChars.length;i++){
        if(string.indexOf(specialChars[i]) > -1){
            return true
        }
    }
    return false;
}

if(check($('#Search').val()) == false){
    // Code that needs to execute when none of the above is in the string
}else{
    alert('Your search string contains illegal characters.');
}

maven compilation failure

Try to use:

mvn clean package install

This command should install your artifacts in you local maven repo.

PS: I see that this is an old question, but it may be helpful for somebody in the future.

Why isn't my Pandas 'apply' function referencing multiple columns working?

Seems you forgot the '' of your string.

In [43]: df['Value'] = df.apply(lambda row: my_test(row['a'], row['c']), axis=1)

In [44]: df
Out[44]:
                    a    b         c     Value
          0 -1.674308  foo  0.343801  0.044698
          1 -2.163236  bar -2.046438 -0.116798
          2 -0.199115  foo -0.458050 -0.199115
          3  0.918646  bar -0.007185 -0.001006
          4  1.336830  foo  0.534292  0.268245
          5  0.976844  bar -0.773630 -0.570417

BTW, in my opinion, following way is more elegant:

In [53]: def my_test2(row):
....:     return row['a'] % row['c']
....:     

In [54]: df['Value'] = df.apply(my_test2, axis=1)

How do I get the total Json record count using JQuery?

What you're looking for is

j.d.length

The d is the key. At least it is in my case, I'm using a .NET webservice.

 $.ajax({
            type: "POST",
            url: "CantTellU.asmx",
            data: "{'userID' : " + parseInt($.query.get('ID')) + " }",
            contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
            dataType: "json",
            success: function(msg, status) {
                ApplyTemplate(msg);
                alert(msg.d.length);
            }
        });

Declare a variable as Decimal

The best way is to declare the variable as a Single or a Double depending on the precision you need. The data type Single utilizes 4 Bytes and has the range of -3.402823E38 to 1.401298E45. Double uses 8 Bytes.

You can declare as follows:

Dim decAsdf as Single

or

Dim decAsdf as Double

Here is an example which displays a message box with the value of the variable after calculation. All you have to do is put it in a module and run it.

Sub doubleDataTypeExample()
Dim doubleTest As Double


doubleTest = 0.0000045 * 0.005 * 0.01

MsgBox "doubleTest = " & doubleTest
End Sub

Getting Gradle dependencies in IntelliJ IDEA using Gradle build

Optionally, select Auto Import on the next screen to automatically import new dependencies.

Confused about Service vs Factory

This is what helped me to understand the difference, thanks to a blog post by Pascal Precht.

A service is a method on a module that takes a name and a function that defines the service. You can inject and use that particular service in other components, like controllers, directives and filters. A factory is a method on a module and it also takes a name and a function, that defines the factory. We can also inject and use the it same way we did with the service.

Objects created with new use the value of the prototype property of their constructor function as their prototype, so I found the Angular code that calls Object.create(), that I believe is the service constructor function when it gets instantiated. However, a factory function is really just a function that gets called, which is why we have to return an object literal for the factory.

Here is the angular 1.5 code I found for factory:

var needsRecurse = false;
    var destination = copyType(source);

    if (destination === undefined) {
      destination = isArray(source) ? [] : Object.create(getPrototypeOf(source));
      needsRecurse = true;
    }

Angular source code snippet for the factory() function:

 function factory(name, factoryFn, enforce) {
    return provider(name, {
      $get: enforce !== false ? enforceReturnValue(name, factoryFn) : factoryFn
    });
  }

It takes the name and the factory function that is passed and returns a provider with the same name, that has a $get method which is our factory function. Whenever you ask the injector for a specific dependency, it basically asks the corresponding provider for an instance of that service, by calling the $get() method. That’s why $get() is required, when creating providers.

Here is the angular 1.5 code for service.

function service(name, constructor) {
    return factory(name, ['$injector', function($injector) {
      return $injector.instantiate(constructor);
    }]);
  }

It turns out that when we call service(), it actually calls factory()! However, it doesn’t just pass our service constructor function to the factory as is. It also passes a function that asks the injector to instantiate an object by the given constructor.

In other words, if we inject MyService somewhere, what happens in the code is:

MyServiceProvider.$get(); // return the instance of the service

To restate it again, a service calls a factory, which is a $get() method on the corresponding provider. Moreover, $injector.instantiate() is the method that ultimately calls Object.create() with the constructor function. That’s why we use "this" in services.

For ES5 it doesn't matter which we use: service() or factory(), it’s always a factory that is called which creates a provider for our service.

You can do the exact same thing with services as well though. A service is a constructor function, however, that doesn’t prevent us from returning object literals. So we can take our service code and write it in a way that it basically does the exact same thing as our factory or in other words, you can write a service as a factory to return an object.

Why do most people recommend to use factories over services? This is the best answer I've seen which comes from Pawel Kozlowski's book: Mastering Web Application Development with AngularJS.

The factory method is the most common way of getting objects into AngularJS dependency injection system. It is very flexible and can contain sophisticated creation logic. Since factories are regular functions, we can also take advantage of a new lexical scope to simulate "private" variables. This is very useful as we can hide implementation details of a given service."

How to automatically insert a blank row after a group of data

I have a large file in excel dealing with purchase and sale of mutual fund units. Number of rows in a worksheet exceeds 4000. I have no experience with VBA and would like to work with basic excel. Taking the cue from the solutions suggested above, I tried to solve the problem ( to insert blank rows automatically) in the following manner:

  1. I sorted my file according to control fields
  2. I added a column to the file
  3. I used the "IF" function to determine when there is a change in the control data .
  4. If there is a change the result will indicate "yes", otherwise "no"
  5. Then I filtered the data to group all "yes" items
  6. I copied mutual fund names, folio number etc (no financial data)
  7. Then I removed the filter and sorted the file again. The result is a row added at the desired place. (It is not entirely a blank row, because if it is fully blank, sorting will not place the row at the desired place.)
  8. After sorting, you can easily delete all values to get a completely blank row.

This method also may be tried by the readers.

Assigning default value while creating migration file

I tried t.boolean :active, :default => 1 in migration file for creating entire table. After ran that migration when i checked in db it made as null. Even though i told default as "1". After that slightly i changed migration file like this then it worked for me for setting default value on create table migration file.

t.boolean :active, :null => false,:default =>1. Worked for me.

WCF service maxReceivedMessageSize basicHttpBinding issue

Removing the name from your binding will make it apply to all endpoints, and should produce the desired results. As so:

<services>
  <service name="Service.IService">
    <clear />
    <endpoint binding="basicHttpBinding" contract="Service.IService" />
  </service>
</services>
<bindings>
  <basicHttpBinding>
    <binding maxBufferSize="2147483647" maxReceivedMessageSize="2147483647">
      <readerQuotas maxDepth="32" maxStringContentLength="2147483647"
        maxArrayLength="16348" maxBytesPerRead="4096" maxNameTableCharCount="16384" />
    </binding>
  </basicHttpBinding>
  <webHttpBinding>
    <binding maxBufferSize="2147483647" maxReceivedMessageSize="2147483647" />
  </webHttpBinding>
</bindings>

Also note that I removed the bindingConfiguration attribute from the endpoint node. Otherwise you would get an exception.

How to pip install a package with min and max version range?

you can also use:

pip install package==0.5.*

which is more consistent and easy to read.

How to get value from form field in django framework?

You can do this after you validate your data.

if myform.is_valid():
  data = myform.cleaned_data
  field = data['field']

Also, read the django docs. They are perfect.

How to make VS Code to treat other file extensions as certain language?

Following the steps on https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/customization/colorizer#_common-questions worked well for me:

To extend an existing colorizer, you would create a simple package.json in a new folder under .vscode/extensions and provide the extensionDependencies attribute specifying the customization you want to add to. In the example below, an extension .mmd is added to the markdown colorizer. Note that not only must the extensionDependency name match the customization but also the language id must match the language id of the colorizer you are extending.

{
    "name": "MyMarkdown",
    "version": "0.0.1",
    "engines": {
        "vscode": "0.10.x"
    },
    "publisher": "none",
    "extensionDependencies": [
        "markdown"
    ],
    "contributes": {
        "languages": [{
            "id": "markdown",
            "aliases": ["mmd"],
            "extensions": [".mmd"]
        }]
    }
}

Where do I find the line number in the Xcode editor?

To save $4.99 for a one time use and no dealing with HomeBrew and no counting empty lines.

  1. Open Terminal
  2. cd to your Xcode project
  3. Execute the following when inside your target project:

find . -name "*.swift" -print0 | xargs -0 wc -l

If you want to exclude pods:

find . -path ./Pods -prune -o -name "*.swift" -print0 ! -name "/Pods" | xargs -0 wc -l

If your project has objective c and swift:

find . -type d \( -path ./Pods -o -path ./Vendor \) -prune -o \( -iname \*.m -o -iname \*.mm -o -iname \*.h -o -iname \*.swift \) -print0 | xargs -0 wc -l

grep output to show only matching file

grep -l 

(That's a lowercase L)

How do I get the web page contents from a WebView?

I know this is a late answer, but I found this question because I had the same problem. I think I found the answer in this post on lexandera.com. The code below is basically a cut-and-paste from the site. It seems to do the trick.

final Context myApp = this;

/* An instance of this class will be registered as a JavaScript interface */
class MyJavaScriptInterface
{
    @JavascriptInterface
    @SuppressWarnings("unused")
    public void processHTML(String html)
    {
        // process the html as needed by the app
    }
}

final WebView browser = (WebView)findViewById(R.id.browser);
/* JavaScript must be enabled if you want it to work, obviously */
browser.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);

/* Register a new JavaScript interface called HTMLOUT */
browser.addJavascriptInterface(new MyJavaScriptInterface(), "HTMLOUT");

/* WebViewClient must be set BEFORE calling loadUrl! */
browser.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient() {
    @Override
    public void onPageFinished(WebView view, String url)
    {
        /* This call inject JavaScript into the page which just finished loading. */
        browser.loadUrl("javascript:window.HTMLOUT.processHTML('<head>'+document.getElementsByTagName('html')[0].innerHTML+'</head>');");
    }
});

/* load a web page */
browser.loadUrl("http://lexandera.com/files/jsexamples/gethtml.html");

Why doesn't JavaScript support multithreading?

It's the implementations that doesn't support multi-threading. Currently Google Gears is providing a way to use some form of concurrency by executing external processes but that's about it.

The new browser Google is supposed to release today (Google Chrome) executes some code in parallel by separating it in process.

The core language, of course can have the same support as, say Java, but support for something like Erlang's concurrency is nowhere near the horizon.

Preloading CSS Images

If the page elements and their background images are already in the DOM (i.e. you are not creating/changing them dynamically), then their background images will already be loaded. At that point, you may want to look at compression methods :)

List comprehension vs. lambda + filter

I thought I'd just add that in python 3, filter() is actually an iterator object, so you'd have to pass your filter method call to list() in order to build the filtered list. So in python 2:

lst_a = range(25) #arbitrary list
lst_b = [num for num in lst_a if num % 2 == 0]
lst_c = filter(lambda num: num % 2 == 0, lst_a)

lists b and c have the same values, and were completed in about the same time as filter() was equivalent [x for x in y if z]. However, in 3, this same code would leave list c containing a filter object, not a filtered list. To produce the same values in 3:

lst_a = range(25) #arbitrary list
lst_b = [num for num in lst_a if num % 2 == 0]
lst_c = list(filter(lambda num: num %2 == 0, lst_a))

The problem is that list() takes an iterable as it's argument, and creates a new list from that argument. The result is that using filter in this way in python 3 takes up to twice as long as the [x for x in y if z] method because you have to iterate over the output from filter() as well as the original list.

How to delete an app from iTunesConnect / App Store Connect

As the instructions state on the iTuneconnect Developer Guidelines you need to ensure that you are the "team agent" to delete apps. This is stated in the quote below from the developer guidelines.

If the Delete App button isn’t displayed, check that you’re the team agent and that the app is in one of the statuses that allow the app to be deleted.

I have just checked on my account by logging in as the main account holder and the delete button is there for an app that I have previously removed from sale but when I have looked in as another user they don't have this permission, only the main account holder seems to have it.

Playing HTML5 video on fullscreen in android webview

Edit 2014/10: by popular demand I'm maintaining and moving this to GitHub. Please check cprcrack/VideoEnabledWebView for the last version. Will keep this answer only for reference.

Edit 2014/01: improved example usage to include the nonVideoLayout, videoLayout, and videoLoading views, for those users requesting more example code for better understading.

Edit 2013/12: some bug fixes related to Sony Xperia devices compatibility, but which in fact affected all devices.

Edit 2013/11: after the release of Android 4.4 KitKat (API level 19) with its new Chromium webview, I had to work hard again. Several improvements were made. You should update to this new version. I release this source under WTFPL.

Edit 2013/04: after 1 week of hard work, I finally have achieved everything I needed. I think this two generic classes that I have created can solve all you problems.

VideoEnabledWebChromeClient can be used alone if you do not require the functionality that VideoEnabledWebView adds. But VideoEnabledWebView must always rely on a VideoEnabledWebChromeClient. Please read all the comments of the both classes carefully.

/**
 * This class serves as a WebChromeClient to be set to a WebView, allowing it to play video.
 * Video will play differently depending on target API level (in-line, fullscreen, or both).
 *
 * It has been tested with the following video classes:
 * - android.widget.VideoView (typically API level <11)
 * - android.webkit.HTML5VideoFullScreen$VideoSurfaceView/VideoTextureView (typically API level 11-18)
 * - com.android.org.chromium.content.browser.ContentVideoView$VideoSurfaceView (typically API level 19+)
 * 
 * Important notes:
 * - For API level 11+, android:hardwareAccelerated="true" must be set in the application manifest.
 * - The invoking activity must call VideoEnabledWebChromeClient's onBackPressed() inside of its own onBackPressed().
 * - Tested in Android API levels 8-19. Only tested on http://m.youtube.com.

    // Set layout
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

    // Save the web view
    webView = (VideoEnabledWebView) findViewById(R.id.webView);

    // Initialize the VideoEnabledWebChromeClient and set event handlers

    {
        @Override
        public void toggledFullscreen(boolean fullscreen)
        {
            // Your code to handle the full-screen change, for example showing and hiding the title bar. Example:
            if (fullscreen)
            {
                WindowManager.LayoutParams attrs = getWindow().getAttributes();
                attrs.flags |= WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN;

    webView.setWebChromeClient(webChromeClient);

    // Navigate everywhere you want, this classes have only been tested on YouTube's mobile site
    webView.loadUrl("http://m.youtube.com");
}

And don't forget to call onBackPressed():

@Override
public void onBackPressed()
{
    // Notify the VideoEnabledWebChromeClient, and handle it ourselves if it doesn't handle it
    if (!webChromeClient.onBackPressed())
    {
        if (webView.canGoBack())
        {
            webView.goBack();
        }
        else
        {
            // Close app (presumably)
            super.onBackPressed();
        }
    }
}

HTML5 placeholder css padding

I got the same issue.

I fixed it by removing line-height from my input. Check if there is some lineheight which is causing the problem

PHP combine two associative arrays into one array

UPDATE Just a quick note, as I can see this looks really stupid, and it has no good use with pure PHP because the array_merge just works there. BUT try it with the PHP MongoDB driver before you rush to downvote. That dude WILL add indexes for whatever reason, and WILL ruin the merged object. With my naïve little function, the merge comes out exactly the way it was supposed to with a traditional array_merge.


I know it's an old question but I'd like to add one more case I had recently with MongoDB driver queries and none of array_merge, array_replace nor array_push worked. I had a bit complex structure of objects wrapped as arrays in array:

$a = [
 ["a" => [1, "a2"]],
 ["b" => ["b1", 2]]
];
$t = [
 ["c" => ["c1", "c2"]],
 ["b" => ["b1", 2]]
];

And I needed to merge them keeping the same structure like this:

$merged = [
 ["a" => [1, "a2"]],
 ["b" => ["b1", 2]],
 ["c" => ["c1", "c2"]],
 ["b" => ["b1", 2]]
];

The best solution I came up with was this:

public static function glueArrays($arr1, $arr2) {
    // merges TWO (2) arrays without adding indexing. 
    $myArr = $arr1;
    foreach ($arr2 as $arrayItem) {
        $myArr[] = $arrayItem;
    }
    return $myArr;
}

This Activity already has an action bar supplied by the window decor

Another easy way is to make your theme a child of Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar like so:

<style name="NoActionBarTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar">
     ...
</style>

How do you run `apt-get` in a dockerfile behind a proxy?

Use --build-arg in lower case environment variable:

docker build --build-arg http_proxy=http://proxy:port/ --build-arg https_proxy=http://proxy:port/ --build-arg ftp_proxy=http://proxy:port --build-arg no_proxy=localhost,127.0.0.1,company.com -q=false .

How to get whole and decimal part of a number?

This code will split it up for you:

list($whole, $decimal) = explode('.', $your_number);

where $whole is the whole number and $decimal will have the digits after the decimal point.

Disable a textbox using CSS

you can disable via css:

pointer-events: none; 

Doesn't work everywhere though.

How to check for null/empty/whitespace values with a single test?

SELECT column_name from table_name
WHERE RTRIM(ISNULL(column_name, '')) LIKE ''

ISNULL(column_name, '') will return '' if column_name is NULL, otherwise it will return column_name.

UPDATE

In Oracle, you can use NVL to achieve the same results.

SELECT column_name from table_name
WHERE RTRIM(NVL(column_name, '')) LIKE ''

Can lambda functions be templated?

In C++20 this is possible using the following syntax:

auto lambda = []<typename T>(T t){
    // do something
};

React onClick function fires on render

The value for your onClick attribute should be a function, not a function call.

mailto link with HTML body

I have used this and it seems to work with outlook, not using html but you can format the text with line breaks at least when the body is added as output.

<a href="mailto:[email protected]?subject=Hello world&body=Line one%0DLine two">Email me</a>

How to show a dialog to confirm that the user wishes to exit an Android Activity?

@Override
public void onBackPressed() {
    new AlertDialog.Builder(this)
           .setMessage("Are you sure you want to exit?")
           .setCancelable(false)
           .setPositiveButton("Yes", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
               public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int id) {
                   ExampleActivity.super.onBackPressed();
               }
           })
           .setNegativeButton("No", null)
           .show();
}

Disabling radio buttons with jQuery

Remove your "each" and just use:

$('input[name=ticketID]').attr("disabled",true);

That simple. It works

What is the difference between __str__ and __repr__?

Apart from all the answers given, I would like to add few points :-

1) __repr__() is invoked when you simply write object's name on interactive python console and press enter.

2) __str__() is invoked when you use object with print statement.

3) In case, if __str__ is missing, then print and any function using str() invokes __repr__() of object.

4) __str__() of containers, when invoked will execute __repr__() method of its contained elements.

5) str() called within __str__() could potentially recurse without a base case, and error on maximum recursion depth.

6) __repr__() can call repr() which will attempt to avoid infinite recursion automatically, replacing an already represented object with ....

jQuery - Detect value change on hidden input field

You can simply use the below function, You can also change the type element.

 $("input[type=hidden]").bind("change", function() {
       alert($(this).val()); 
 });

Changes in value to hidden elements don't automatically fire the .change() event. So, wherever it is that you're setting that value, you also have to tell jQuery to trigger it.

HTML

 <div id="message"></div>
<input type="hidden" id="testChange" value="0"  />    

JAVASCRIPT

var $message = $('#message');
var $testChange = $('#testChange');
var i = 1;

function updateChange() {
    $message.html($message.html() + '<p>Changed to ' + $testChange.val() + '</p>');
}

$testChange.on('change', updateChange);

setInterval(function() {
    $testChange.val(++i).trigger('change');; 
    console.log("value changed" +$testChange.val());
}, 3000);

updateChange();

should work as expected.

how to read all files inside particular folder

If you are looking to copy all the text files in one folder to merge and copy to another folder, you can do this to achieve that:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.IO;

namespace HowToCopyTextFiles
{
  class Program
  {
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
      string mydocpath=Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.MyDocuments);     
      StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
      foreach (string txtName in Directory.GetFiles(@"D:\Links","*.txt"))
      {
        using (StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(txtName))
        {
          sb.AppendLine(txtName.ToString());
          sb.AppendLine("= = = = = =");
          sb.Append(sr.ReadToEnd());
          sb.AppendLine();
          sb.AppendLine();   
        }
      }
      using (StreamWriter outfile=new StreamWriter(mydocpath + @"\AllTxtFiles.txt"))
      {    
        outfile.Write(sb.ToString());
      }   
    }
  }
}

Why use @Scripts.Render("~/bundles/jquery")

Bundling is all about compressing several JavaScript or stylesheets files without any formatting (also referred as minified) into a single file for saving bandwith and number of requests to load a page.

As example you could create your own bundle:

bundles.Add(New ScriptBundle("~/bundles/mybundle").Include(
            "~/Resources/Core/Javascripts/jquery-1.7.1.min.js",
            "~/Resources/Core/Javascripts/jquery-ui-1.8.16.min.js",
            "~/Resources/Core/Javascripts/jquery.validate.min.js",
            "~/Resources/Core/Javascripts/jquery.validate.unobtrusive.min.js",
            "~/Resources/Core/Javascripts/jquery.unobtrusive-ajax.min.js",
            "~/Resources/Core/Javascripts/jquery-ui-timepicker-addon.js"))

And render it like this:

@Scripts.Render("~/bundles/mybundle")

One more advantage of @Scripts.Render("~/bundles/mybundle") over the native <script src="~/bundles/mybundle" /> is that @Scripts.Render() will respect the web.config debug setting:

  <system.web>
    <compilation debug="true|false" />

If debug="true" then it will instead render individual script tags for each source script, without any minification.

For stylesheets you will have to use a StyleBundle and @Styles.Render().

Instead of loading each script or style with a single request (with script or link tags), all files are compressed into a single JavaScript or stylesheet file and loaded together.

Swipe to Delete and the "More" button (like in Mail app on iOS 7)

Here's a somewhat fragile way of doing it that does not involve private APIs or constructing your own system. You're hedging your bets that Apple doesn't break this and that hopefully they will release an API that you can replace these few lines of code with.

  1. KVO self.contentView.superview.layer.sublayer. Do this in init. This is the UIScrollView's layer. You can't KVO 'subviews'.
  2. When subviews changes, find the delete confirmation view within scrollview.subviews. This is done in the observe callback.
  3. Double the size of that view and add a UIButton to the left of its only subview. This is also done in the observe callback. The only subview of the delete confirmation view is the delete button.
  4. (optional) The UIButton event should look up self.superview until it finds a UITableView and then call a datasource or delegate method you create, such as tableView:commitCustomEditingStyle:forRowAtIndexPath:. You may find the indexPath of the cell by using [tableView indexPathForCell:self].

This also requires that you implement the standard table view editing delegate callbacks.

static char kObserveContext = 0;

@implementation KZTableViewCell {

Home does not contain an export named Home

This is a case where you mixed up default exports and named exports.

When dealing with the named exports, if you try to import them you should use curly braces as below,

import { Home } from './layouts/Home'; // if the Home is a named export

In your case the Home was exported as a default one. This is the one that will get imported from the module, when you don’t specify a certain name of a certain piece of code. When you import, and omit the curly braces, it will look for the default export in the module you’re importing from. So your import should be,

import Home from './layouts/Home'; // if the Home is a default export

Some references to look :

Java equivalent to JavaScript's encodeURIComponent that produces identical output?

This is what I'm using:

private static final String HEX = "0123456789ABCDEF";

public static String encodeURIComponent(String str) {
    if (str == null) return null;

    byte[] bytes = str.getBytes(StandardCharsets.UTF_8);
    StringBuilder builder = new StringBuilder(bytes.length);

    for (byte c : bytes) {
        if (c >= 'a' ? c <= 'z' || c == '~' :
            c >= 'A' ? c <= 'Z' || c == '_' :
            c >= '0' ? c <= '9' :  c == '-' || c == '.')
            builder.append((char)c);
        else
            builder.append('%')
                   .append(HEX.charAt(c >> 4 & 0xf))
                   .append(HEX.charAt(c & 0xf));
    }

    return builder.toString();
}

It goes beyond Javascript's by percent-encoding every character that is not an unreserved character according to RFC 3986.


This is the oposite conversion:

public static String decodeURIComponent(String str) {
    if (str == null) return null;

    int length = str.length();
    byte[] bytes = new byte[length / 3];
    StringBuilder builder = new StringBuilder(length);

    for (int i = 0; i < length; ) {
        char c = str.charAt(i);
        if (c != '%') {
            builder.append(c);
            i += 1;
        } else {
            int j = 0;
            do {
                char h = str.charAt(i + 1);
                char l = str.charAt(i + 2);
                i += 3;

                h -= '0';
                if (h >= 10) {
                    h |= ' ';
                    h -= 'a' - '0';
                    if (h >= 6) throw new IllegalArgumentException();
                    h += 10;
                }

                l -= '0';
                if (l >= 10) {
                    l |= ' ';
                    l -= 'a' - '0';
                    if (l >= 6) throw new IllegalArgumentException();
                    l += 10;
                }

                bytes[j++] = (byte)(h << 4 | l);
                if (i >= length) break;
                c = str.charAt(i);
            } while (c == '%');
            builder.append(new String(bytes, 0, j, UTF_8));
        }
    }

    return builder.toString();

Test whether string is a valid integer

Wow... there are so many good solutions here!! Of all the solutions above, I agree with @nortally that using the -eq one liner is the coolest.

I am running GNU bash, version 4.1.5 (Debian). I have also checked this on ksh (SunSO 5.10).

Here is my version of checking if $1 is an integer or not:

if [ "$1" -eq "$1" ] 2>/dev/null
then
    echo "$1 is an integer !!"
else
    echo "ERROR: first parameter must be an integer."
    echo $USAGE
    exit 1
fi

This approach also accounts for negative numbers, which some of the other solutions will have a faulty negative result, and it will allow a prefix of "+" (e.g. +30) which obviously is an integer.

Results:

$ int_check.sh 123
123 is an integer !!

$ int_check.sh 123+
ERROR: first parameter must be an integer.

$ int_check.sh -123
-123 is an integer !!

$ int_check.sh +30
+30 is an integer !!

$ int_check.sh -123c
ERROR: first parameter must be an integer.

$ int_check.sh 123c
ERROR: first parameter must be an integer.

$ int_check.sh c123
ERROR: first parameter must be an integer.

The solution provided by Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams was also very neat (if you like regex) after it was explained. However, it does not handle positive numbers with the + prefix, but it can easily be fixed as below:

[[ $var =~ ^[-+]?[0-9]+$ ]]

How to disable javax.swing.JButton in java?

The code is very long so I can't paste all the code.

There could be any number of reasons why your code doesn't work. Maybe you declared the button variables twice so you aren't actually changing enabling/disabling the button like you think you are. Maybe you are blocking the EDT.

You need to create a SSCCE to post on the forum.

So its up to you to isolate the problem. Start with a simple frame thas two buttons and see if your code works. Once you get that working, then try starting a Thread that simply sleeps for 10 seconds to see if it still works.

Learn how the basice work first before writing a 200 line program.

Learn how to do some basic debugging, we are not mind readers. We can't guess what silly mistake you are doing based on your verbal description of the problem.

CSS white space at bottom of page despite having both min-height and height tag

The problem is how 100% height is being calculated. Two ways to deal with this.

Add 20px to the body padding-bottom

body {
    padding-bottom: 20px;
}

or add a transparent border to body

body {
    border: 1px solid transparent;
}

Both worked for me in firebug

In defense of this answer

Below are some comments regarding the correctness of my answer to this question. These kinds of discussions are exactly why stackoverflow is so great. Many different people have different opinions on how best to solve the problem. I've learned some incredible coding style that I would not have thought of myself. And I've been told that readers have learned something from my style from time to time. Social coding has really encouraged me to be a better programmer.

Social coding can, at times, be disturbing. I hate it when I spend 30 minutes flushing out an answer with a jsfiddle and detailed explanation only to submit and find 10 other answers all saying the same thing in less detail. And the author accepts someone else's answer. How frustrating! I think that this has happend to my fellow contributors–in particular thirtydot.

Thirtydot's answer is completely legit. The p around the script is the culprit in this problem. Remove it and the space goes away. It also is a good answer to this question.

But why? Shouldn't the p tag's height, padding and margin be calculated into the height of the body?

And it is! If you remove the padding-bottom style that I've suggested and then set the body's background to black, you will see that the body's height includes this extra p space accurately (you see the strip at the bottom turn to black). But the gradient fails to include it when finding where to start. This is the real problem.

The two solutions that I've offered are ways to tell the browser to calculate the gradient properly. In fact, the padding-bottom could just be 1px. The value isn't important, but the setting is. It makes the browser take a look at where the body ends. Setting the border will have the same effect.

In my opinion, a padding setting of 20px looks the best for this page and that is why I answered it this way. It is addressing the problem of where the gradient starts.

Now, if I were building this page. I would have avoided wrapping the script in a p tag. But I must assume that author of the page either can't change it or has a good reason for putting it in there. I don't know what that script does. Will it write something that needs a p tag? Again, I would avoid this practice and it is fine to question its presence, but also I accept that there are cases where it must be there.

My hope in writing this "defense" is that the people who marked down this answer might consider that decision. My answer is thought out, purposeful, and relevant. The author thought so. However, in this social environment, I respect that you disagree and have a right to degrade my answer. I just hope that your choice is motivated by disagreement with my answer and not that author chose mine over yours.

                    clip.close();
            }
        });

        clip.open(AudioSystem.getAudioInputStream(file));

Update row values where certain condition is met in pandas

I think you can use loc if you need update two columns to same value:

df1.loc[df1['stream'] == 2, ['feat','another_feat']] = 'aaaa'
print df1
   stream        feat another_feat
a       1  some_value   some_value
b       2        aaaa         aaaa
c       2        aaaa         aaaa
d       3  some_value   some_value

If you need update separate, one option is use:

df1.loc[df1['stream'] == 2, 'feat'] = 10
print df1
   stream        feat another_feat
a       1  some_value   some_value
b       2          10   some_value
c       2          10   some_value
d       3  some_value   some_value

Another common option is use numpy.where:

df1['feat'] = np.where(df1['stream'] == 2, 10,20)
print df1
   stream  feat another_feat
a       1    20   some_value
b       2    10   some_value
c       2    10   some_value
d       3    20   some_value

EDIT: If you need divide all columns without stream where condition is True, use:

print df1
   stream  feat  another_feat
a       1     4             5
b       2     4             5
c       2     2             9
d       3     1             7

#filter columns all without stream
cols = [col for col in df1.columns if col != 'stream']
print cols
['feat', 'another_feat']

df1.loc[df1['stream'] == 2, cols ] = df1 / 2
print df1
   stream  feat  another_feat
a       1   4.0           5.0
b       2   2.0           2.5
c       2   1.0           4.5
d       3   1.0           7.0

If working with multiple conditions is possible use multiple numpy.where or numpy.select:

df0 = pd.DataFrame({'Col':[5,0,-6]})

df0['New Col1'] = np.where((df0['Col'] > 0), 'Increasing', 
                          np.where((df0['Col'] < 0), 'Decreasing', 'No Change'))

df0['New Col2'] = np.select([df0['Col'] > 0, df0['Col'] < 0],
                            ['Increasing',  'Decreasing'], 
                            default='No Change')

print (df0)
   Col    New Col1    New Col2
0    5  Increasing  Increasing
1    0   No Change   No Change
2   -6  Decreasing  Decreasing

How does Python return multiple values from a function?

Since the return statement in getName specifies multiple elements:

def getName(self):
   return self.first_name, self.last_name

Python will return a container object that basically contains them.

In this case, returning a comma separated set of elements creates a tuple. Multiple values can only be returned inside containers.

Let's use a simpler function that returns multiple values:

def foo(a, b):
    return a, b

You can look at the byte code generated by using dis.dis, a disassembler for Python bytecode. For comma separated values w/o any brackets, it looks like this:

>>> import dis
>>> def foo(a, b):
...     return a,b        
>>> dis.dis(foo)
  2           0 LOAD_FAST                0 (a)
              3 LOAD_FAST                1 (b)
              6 BUILD_TUPLE              2
              9 RETURN_VALUE

As you can see the values are first loaded on the internal stack with LOAD_FAST and then a BUILD_TUPLE (grabbing the previous 2 elements placed on the stack) is generated. Python knows to create a tuple due to the commas being present.

You could alternatively specify another return type, for example a list, by using []. For this case, a BUILD_LIST is going to be issued following the same semantics as it's tuple equivalent:

>>> def foo_list(a, b):
...     return [a, b]
>>> dis.dis(foo_list)
  2           0 LOAD_FAST                0 (a)
              3 LOAD_FAST                1 (b)
              6 BUILD_LIST               2
              9 RETURN_VALUE

The type of object returned really depends on the presence of brackets (for tuples () can be omitted if there's at least one comma). [] creates lists and {} sets. Dictionaries need key:val pairs.

To summarize, one actual object is returned. If that object is of a container type, it can contain multiple values giving the impression of multiple results returned. The usual method then is to unpack them directly:

>>> first_name, last_name = f.getName()
>>> print (first_name, last_name)

As an aside to all this, your Java ways are leaking into Python :-)

Don't use getters when writing classes in Python, use properties. Properties are the idiomatic way to manage attributes, for more on these, see a nice answer here.

How to use CSS to surround a number with a circle?

This version does not rely on hard-coded, fixed values but sizes relative to the font-size of the div.

http://jsfiddle.net/qod1vstv/

enter image description here

CSS:

.numberCircle {
    font: 32px Arial, sans-serif;

    width: 2em;
    height: 2em;
    box-sizing: initial;

    background: #fff;
    border: 0.1em solid #666;
    color: #666;
    text-align: center;
    border-radius: 50%;    

    line-height: 2em;
    box-sizing: content-box;   
}

HTML:

<div class="numberCircle">30</div>
<div class="numberCircle" style="font-size: 60px">1</div>
<div class="numberCircle" style="font-size: 12px">2</div>

centos: Another MySQL daemon already running with the same unix socket

TL;DR:

Run this as root and you'll be all set:

rm $(grep socket /etc/my.cnf | cut -d= -f2)  && service mysqld start

Longer version:

You can find the location of MySQL's socket file by manually poking around in /etc/my.conf, or just by using

grep socket /etc/my.cnf | cut -d= -f2

It is likely to be /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock. Then (as root, of course, or with sudo prepended) remove that file:

rm /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock

Then start the MySQL daemon:

service mysqld start

Removing mysqld will not address the problem at all. The problem is that CentOS & RedHat do not clean up the sock file after a crash, so you have to do it yourself. Avoiding powering off your system is (of course) also advised, but sometimes you can't avoid it, so this procedure will solve the problem.

How to define object in array in Mongoose schema correctly with 2d geo index

The problem I need to solve is to store contracts containing a few fields (address, book, num_of_days, borrower_addr, blk_data), blk_data is a transaction list (block number and transaction address). This question and answer helped me. I would like to share my code as below. Hope this helps.

  1. Schema definition. See blk_data.
var ContractSchema = new Schema(
    {
        address: {type: String, required: true, max: 100},  //contract address
        // book_id: {type: String, required: true, max: 100},  //book id in the book collection
        book: { type: Schema.ObjectId, ref: 'clc_books', required: true }, // Reference to the associated book.
        num_of_days: {type: Number, required: true, min: 1},
        borrower_addr: {type: String, required: true, max: 100},
        // status: {type: String, enum: ['available', 'Created', 'Locked', 'Inactive'], default:'Created'},

        blk_data: [{
            tx_addr: {type: String, max: 100}, // to do: change to a list
            block_number: {type: String, max: 100}, // to do: change to a list
        }]
    }
);
  1. Create a record for the collection in the MongoDB. See blk_data.
// Post submit a smart contract proposal to borrowing a specific book.
exports.ctr_contract_propose_post = [

    // Validate fields
    body('book_id', 'book_id must not be empty.').isLength({ min: 1 }).trim(),
    body('req_addr', 'req_addr must not be empty.').isLength({ min: 1 }).trim(),
    body('new_contract_addr', 'contract_addr must not be empty.').isLength({ min: 1 }).trim(),
    body('tx_addr', 'tx_addr must not be empty.').isLength({ min: 1 }).trim(),
    body('block_number', 'block_number must not be empty.').isLength({ min: 1 }).trim(),
    body('num_of_days', 'num_of_days must not be empty.').isLength({ min: 1 }).trim(),

    // Sanitize fields.
    sanitizeBody('*').escape(),
    // Process request after validation and sanitization.
    (req, res, next) => {

        // Extract the validation errors from a request.
        const errors = validationResult(req);
        if (!errors.isEmpty()) {
            // There are errors. Render form again with sanitized values/error messages.
            res.status(400).send({ errors: errors.array() });
            return;
        }

        // Create a Book object with escaped/trimmed data and old id.
        var book_fields =
            {
                _id: req.body.book_id, // This is required, or a new ID will be assigned!
                cur_contract: req.body.new_contract_addr,
                status: 'await_approval'
            };

        async.parallel({
            //call the function get book model

Binding a WPF ComboBox to a custom list

To bind the data to ComboBox

List<ComboData> ListData = new List<ComboData>();
ListData.Add(new ComboData { Id = "1", Value = "One" });
ListData.Add(new ComboData { Id = "2", Value = "Two" });
ListData.Add(new ComboData { Id = "3", Value = "Three" });
ListData.Add(new ComboData { Id = "4", Value = "Four" });
ListData.Add(new ComboData { Id = "5", Value = "Five" });

cbotest.ItemsSource = ListData;
cbotest.DisplayMemberPath = "Value";
cbotest.SelectedValuePath = "Id";

cbotest.SelectedValue = "2";

ComboData looks like:

public class ComboData
{ 
  public int Id { get; set; } 
  public string Value { get; set; } 
}

(note that Id and Value have to be properties, not class fields)

How to reset settings in Visual Studio Code?

If you want to start afresh, deleting the settings.json file from your user's profile will do the trick.

But if you don't want to reset everything, it is still possible through settings menu.

settings menu

You can search for the setting that you want to revert back using search box.

You will see some settings with the left blue line, it means you've modified that one.

search setting

If you take your cursor to that setting, a gear button will appear. You can click this to restore that setting.

gear button

You can also use the drop-down below that setting and change it to default.

How can I use UIColorFromRGB in Swift?

In Swift3, if you are starting with a color you have already chosen, you can get the RGB value online (http://imagecolorpicker.com) and use those values defined as a UIColor. This solution implements them as a background:

    @IBAction func blueBackground(_ sender: Any) {
        let blueColor = UIColor(red: CGFloat(160/255), green: CGFloat(183.0/255), blue: CGFloat(227.0/255), alpha: 1)
        view.backgroundColor = blueColor

@Vadym mentioned this above in the comments and it is important to define the CGFloat with a single decimal point

What is the difference between Sessions and Cookies in PHP?

The main difference between a session and a cookie is that session data is stored on the server, whereas cookies store data in the visitor’s browser.

Sessions are more secure than cookies as it is stored in server. Cookie can be turned off from browser.

Data stored in cookie can be stored for months or years, depending on the life span of the cookie. But the data in the session is lost when the web browser is closed.

Crystal Reports 13 And Asp.Net 3.5

I believe you are not the only one who has problems when trying to deploy Crystal Report for VS 2010. Based on the error message you had, have you checked:

  1. Please make sure you just have one CR version installed on your system. If you do have other CR version installed, consider to uninstall it so that your application is not "confused" about the CR version.

  2. You need to make sure you download the correct CR version. Since you are using VS 2010, you need to refer to CRforVS_redist_install_64bit_13_0_1.zip (for 64 bit machine) or CRforVS_redist_install_32bit_13_0_1.zip (for 32 bit machine). These two are the redistributable packages. You can download full package from the below link as well: CRforVS_13_0_1.exe Note: It is sometimes necessary to install 32bit CR runtime even on 64bit OS

  3. Make sure you setup FULL TRUST permission on your root folder

  4. The LOCAL SERVICE permission must be setup on your application pool

  5. Make sure the aspnet_client folder exists on your root folder.

If you can make sure all the 5 points above, your Crystal Report should work without any fuss.

Another important thing to note down here is that if you host your Crystal Report with a shared host, you need to check it with them of whether they really support Crystal Report. If you still have problems, you can switch to http://www.asphostcentral.com, who provides Crystal Report support.

Good luck!

Windows Task Scheduler doesn't start batch file task

One solution is you can run your '.bat' file with '.vbs' file and you can run this vbs file in windows scheduler.

Set objShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
objShell.Run("cron_jobs.bat"), 0, True

You can do like this and i hope it will fix your issue.

Calling the base class constructor from the derived class constructor

The constructor of PetStore will call a constructor of Farm; there's no way you can prevent it. If you do nothing (as you've done), it will call the default constructor (Farm()); if you need to pass arguments, you'll have to specify the base class in the initializer list:

PetStore::PetStore()
    : Farm( neededArgument )
    , idF( 0 )
{
}

(Similarly, the constructor of PetStore will call the constructor of nameF. The constructor of a class always calls the constructors of all of its base classes and all of its members.)

What's the difference between IFrame and Frame?

The difference is an iframe is able to "float" within content in a page, that is you can create an html page and position an iframe within it. This allows you to have a page and place another document directly in it. A frameset allows you to split the screen into different pages (horizontally and vertically) and display different documents in each part.

HttpServletRequest get JSON POST data

Normaly you can GET and POST parameters in a servlet the same way:

request.getParameter("cmd");

But only if the POST data is encoded as key-value pairs of content type: "application/x-www-form-urlencoded" like when you use a standard HTML form.

If you use a different encoding schema for your post data, as in your case when you post a json data stream, you need to use a custom decoder that can process the raw datastream from:

BufferedReader reader = request.getReader();

Json post processing example (uses org.json package )

public void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
  throws ServletException, IOException {

  StringBuffer jb = new StringBuffer();
  String line = null;
  try {
    BufferedReader reader = request.getReader();
    while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null)
      jb.append(line);
  } catch (Exception e) { /*report an error*/ }

  try {
    JSONObject jsonObject =  HTTP.toJSONObject(jb.toString());
  } catch (JSONException e) {
    // crash and burn
    throw new IOException("Error parsing JSON request string");
  }

  // Work with the data using methods like...
  // int someInt = jsonObject.getInt("intParamName");
  // String someString = jsonObject.getString("stringParamName");
  // JSONObject nestedObj = jsonObject.getJSONObject("nestedObjName");
  // JSONArray arr = jsonObject.getJSONArray("arrayParamName");
  // etc...

How to print the ld(linker) search path

On Linux, you can use ldconfig, which maintains the ld.so configuration and cache, to print out the directories search by ld.so with

ldconfig -v 2>/dev/null | grep -v ^$'\t'

ldconfig -v prints out the directories search by the linker (without a leading tab) and the shared libraries found in those directories (with a leading tab); the grep gets the directories. On my machine, this line prints out

/usr/lib64/atlas:
/usr/lib/llvm:
/usr/lib64/llvm:
/usr/lib64/mysql:
/usr/lib64/nvidia:
/usr/lib64/tracker-0.12:
/usr/lib/wine:
/usr/lib64/wine:
/usr/lib64/xulrunner-2:
/lib:
/lib64:
/usr/lib:
/usr/lib64:
/usr/lib64/nvidia/tls: (hwcap: 0x8000000000000000)
/lib/i686: (hwcap: 0x0008000000000000)
/lib64/tls: (hwcap: 0x8000000000000000)
/usr/lib/sse2: (hwcap: 0x0000000004000000)
/usr/lib64/tls: (hwcap: 0x8000000000000000)
/usr/lib64/sse2: (hwcap: 0x0000000004000000)

The first paths, without hwcap in the line, are either built-in or read from /etc/ld.so.conf. The linker can then search additional directories under the basic library search path, with names like sse2 corresponding to additional CPU capabilities. These paths, with hwcap in the line, can contain additional libraries tailored for these CPU capabilities.

One final note: using -p instead of -v above searches the ld.so cache instead.

OpenSSL and error in reading openssl.conf file

If you have installed Apache with OpenSSL navigate to bin directory. In my case D:\apache\bin.

*These commands also work if you have stand alone installation of openssl.

Run these commands:

openssl req -config d:\apache\conf\openssl.cnf -new -out d:\apache\conf\server.csr -keyout d:\apache\conf\server.pem
openssl rsa -in d:\apache\conf\server.pem -out d:\apache\conf\server.key
openssl x509 -in d:\apache\conf\server.csr -out d:\apache\conf\server.crt -req -signkey d:\apache\conf\server.key -days 365

*This will create self-signed certificate that you can use for development purposes

Again if you have Apache installed in the httpd.conf stick these:

  <IfModule ssl_module>
    SSLEngine on
    SSLCertificateFile "D:/apache/conf/server.crt"
    SSLCertificateKeyFile "D:/apache/conf/server.key"
  </IfModule>

How to handle notification when app in background in Firebase

To capture the message in background you need to use a BroadcastReceiver

import android.content.Context
import android.content.Intent
import android.util.Log
import androidx.legacy.content.WakefulBroadcastReceiver
import com.google.firebase.messaging.RemoteMessage

class FirebaseBroadcastReceiver : WakefulBroadcastReceiver() {

    val TAG: String = FirebaseBroadcastReceiver::class.java.simpleName

    override fun onReceive(context: Context, intent: Intent) {

        val dataBundle = intent.extras
        if (dataBundle != null)
            for (key in dataBundle.keySet()) {
                Log.d(TAG, "dataBundle: " + key + " : " + dataBundle.get(key))
            }
        val remoteMessage = RemoteMessage(dataBundle)
        }
    }

and add this to your manifest:

<receiver
      android:name="MY_PACKAGE_NAME.FirebaseBroadcastReceiver"
      android:exported="true"
      android:permission="com.google.android.c2dm.permission.SEND">
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="com.google.android.c2dm.intent.RECEIVE" />
        </intent-filter>
</receiver>

Click through div to underlying elements

Allowing the user to click through a div to the underlying element depends on the browser. All modern browsers, including Firefox, Chrome, Safari, and Opera, understand pointer-events:none.

For IE, it depends on the background. If the background is transparent, clickthrough works without you needing to do anything. On the other hand, for something like background:white; opacity:0; filter:Alpha(opacity=0);, IE needs manual event forwarding.

See a JSFiddle test and CanIUse pointer events.

How do I put all required JAR files in a library folder inside the final JAR file with Maven?

This is clearly a classpath problem. Take into consideration that the classpath must change a bit when you run your program outside the IDE. This is because the IDE loads the other JARs relative to the root folder of your project, while in the case of the final JAR this is usually not true.

What I like to do in these situations is build the JAR manually. It takes me at most 5 minutes and it always solves the problem. I do not suggest you do this. Find a way to use Maven, that's its purpose.

What is the Python equivalent of Matlab's tic and toc functions?

This can also be done using a wrapper. Very general way of keeping time.

The wrapper in this example code wraps any function and prints the amount of time needed to execute the function:

def timethis(f):
    import time

    def wrapped(*args, **kwargs):
        start = time.time()
        r = f(*args, **kwargs)
        print "Executing {0} took {1} seconds".format(f.func_name,  time.time()-start)
        return r
    return wrapped

@timethis
def thistakestime():
    for x in range(10000000):
        pass

thistakestime()

Escaping double quotes in JavaScript onClick event handler

While I agree with CMS about doing this in an unobtrusive manner (via a lib like jquery or dojo), here's what also work:

<script type="text/javascript">
function parse(a, b, c) {
    alert(c);
  }

</script>

<a href="#x" onclick="parse('#', false, 'xyc&quot;foo');return false;">Test</a>

The reason it barfs is not because of JavaScript, it's because of the HTML parser. It has no concept of escaped quotes to it trundles along looking for the end quote and finds it and returns that as the onclick function. This is invalid javascript though so you don't find about the error until JavaScript tries to execute the function..

Why can't I push to this bare repository?

If you have not yet committed to your local repo, there is nothing to push, but the Git error message you get back doesn't help you too much.

get enum name from enum value

If you want something more efficient in runtime condition, you can have a map that contains every possible choice of the enum by their value. But it'll be juste slower at initialisation of the JVM.

import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;

/**
 * Example of enum with a getter that need a value in parameter, and that return the Choice/Instance 
 * of the enum which has the same value.
 * The value of each choice can be random.
 */
public enum MyEnum {
    /** a random choice */
    Choice1(4),
    /** a nother one */
    Choice2(2),
    /** another one again */
    Choice3(9);
    /** a map that contains every choices of the enum ordered by their value. */
    private static final Map<Integer, MyEnum> MY_MAP = new HashMap<Integer, MyEnum>();

Group by with multiple columns using lambda

Further to aduchis answer above - if you then need to filter based on those group by keys, you can define a class to wrap the many keys.

return customers.GroupBy(a => new CustomerGroupingKey(a.Country, a.Gender))
                .Where(a => a.Key.Country == "Ireland" && a.Key.Gender == "M")
                .SelectMany(a => a)
                .ToList();

Where CustomerGroupingKey takes the group keys:

    private class CustomerGroupingKey
    {
        public CustomerGroupingKey(string country, string gender)
        {
            Country = country;
            Gender = gender;
        }

        public string Country { get; }

        public string Gender { get; }
    }

Tomcat: How to find out running tomcat version

if you can upload a JSP file you may print out some info like in this example: bestdesigns.co.in/blog/check-jsp-tomcat-version

Save this code into a file called tomcat_version.jsp:

    Tomcat Version : <%= application.getServerInfo() %><br>    
    Servlet Specification Version : 
<%= application.getMajorVersion() %>.<%= application.getMinorVersion() %> <br>    
    JSP version :
<%=JspFactory.getDefaultFactory().getEngineInfo().getSpecificationVersion() %><br>

When you access, http://example.com/tomcat_version.jsp, the output should look similar to:

Tomcat Version : Apache Tomcat/5.5.25
Servlet Specification Version : 2.4
JSP version: 2.0

How can I convert NSDictionary to NSData and vice versa?

NSDictionary -> NSData:

NSMutableData *data = [[NSMutableData alloc] init];
NSKeyedArchiver *archiver = [[NSKeyedArchiver alloc] initForWritingWithMutableData:data];
[archiver encodeObject:yourDictionary forKey:@"Some Key Value"];
[archiver finishEncoding];
[archiver release];

// Here, data holds the serialized version of your dictionary
// do what you need to do with it before you:
[data release];

NSData -> NSDictionary

NSData *data = [[NSMutableData alloc] initWithContentsOfFile:[self dataFilePath]];
NSKeyedUnarchiver *unarchiver = [[NSKeyedUnarchiver alloc] initForReadingWithData:data];
NSDictionary *myDictionary = [[unarchiver decodeObjectForKey:@"Some Key Value"] retain];
[unarchiver finishDecoding];
[unarchiver release];
[data release];

You can do that with any class that conforms to NSCoding.

Pass multiple optional parameters to a C# function

1.You can make overload functions.

SomeF(strin s){}   
SomeF(string s, string s2){}    
SomeF(string s1, string s2, string s3){}   

More info: http://csharpindepth.com/Articles/General/Overloading.aspx

2.or you may create one function with params

SomeF( params string[] paramArray){}
SomeF("aa","bb", "cc", "dd", "ff"); // pass as many as you like

More info: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/csharp/language-reference/keywords/params

3.or you can use simple array

Main(string[] args){}

Running two projects at once in Visual Studio

Max has the best solution for when you always want to start both projects, but you can also right click a project and choose menu Debug ? Start New Instance.

This is an option when you only occasionally need to start the second project or when you need to delay the start of the second project (maybe the server needs to get up and running before the client tries to connect, or something).

Connect to mysql in a docker container from the host

run following command to run container

docker run --name db_name -e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=PASS--publish 8306:3306 db_name

run this command to get mysql db in host machine

mysql -h 127.0.0.1 -P 8306 -uroot  -pPASS

in your case it is

mysql -h 127.0.0.1 -P 12345 -uroot  -pPASS

Why is this printing 'None' in the output?

Because there are two print statements. First is inside function and second is outside function. When function not return any thing that time it return None value.

Use return statement at end of function to return value.

e.g.:

Return None value.

>>> def test1():
...    print "In function."
... 
>>> a = test1()
In function.
>>> print a
None
>>> 
>>> print test1()
In function.
None
>>>
>>> test1()
In function.
>>> 

Use return statement

>>> def test():
...   return "ACV"
... 
>>> print test()
ACV
>>> 
>>> a = test()
>>> print a
ACV
>>>

Oracle: not a valid month

To know the actual date format, insert a record by using sysdate. That way you can find the actual date format. for example

insert into emp values(7936, 'Mac', 'clerk', 7782, sysdate, 1300, 300, 10);

now, select the inserted record.

select ename, hiredate from emp where ename='Mac';

the result is

ENAME   HIREDATE
Mac     06-JAN-13

voila, now your actual date format is found.

Postgres and Indexes on Foreign Keys and Primary Keys

PostgreSQL automatically creates indexes on primary keys and unique constraints, but not on the referencing side of foreign key relationships.

When Pg creates an implicit index it will emit a NOTICE-level message that you can see in psql and/or the system logs, so you can see when it happens. Automatically created indexes are visible in \d output for a table, too.

The documentation on unique indexes says:

PostgreSQL automatically creates an index for each unique constraint and primary key constraint to enforce uniqueness. Thus, it is not necessary to create an index explicitly for primary key columns.

and the documentation on constraints says:

Since a DELETE of a row from the referenced table or an UPDATE of a referenced column will require a scan of the referencing table for rows matching the old value, it is often a good idea to index the referencing columns. Because this is not always needed, and there are many choices available on how to index, declaration of a foreign key constraint does not automatically create an index on the referencing columns.

Therefore you have to create indexes on foreign-keys yourself if you want them.

Note that if you use primary-foreign-keys, like 2 FK's as a PK in a M-to-N table, you will have an index on the PK and probably don't need to create any extra indexes.

While it's usually a good idea to create an index on (or including) your referencing-side foreign key columns, it isn't required. Each index you add slows DML operations down slightly, so you pay a performance cost on every INSERT, UPDATE or DELETE. If the index is rarely used it may not be worth having.

Tokenizing strings in C

int not_in_delimiter(char c, char *delim){

    while(*delim != '\0'){
            if(c == *delim) return 0;
            delim++;
    }
    return 1;

char *token_separater(char *source, char *delimiter, char **last){

char *begin, *next_token;
char *sbegin;

/*Get the start of the token */
if(source)
  begin = source;
else
  begin = *last;

sbegin = begin;

/*Scan through the string till we find character in delimiter. */
while(*begin != '\0' && not_in_delimiter(*begin, delimiter)){
       begin++;
}

/* Check if we have reached at of the string */
if(*begin == '\0') {
/* We dont need to come further, hence return NULL*/
   *last = NULL;
    return sbegin;
}
/* Scan the string till we find a character which is not in delimiter */
 next_token  = begin;
 while(next_token != '\0' && !not_in_delimiter(*next_token, delimiter))    {
    next_token++;
 }
 /* If we have not reached at the end of the string */
 if(*next_token != '\0'){
  *last = next_token--;
  *next_token = '\0';
   return sbegin;
}
}

 void main(){

    char string[10] = "abcb_dccc";
    char delim[10] = "_";
    char *token = NULL;

laravel-5 passing variable to JavaScript

One working example for me.

Controller:

public function tableView()
{
    $sites = Site::all();
    return view('main.table', compact('sites'));
}

View:

<script>    
    var sites = {!! json_encode($sites->toArray()) !!};
</script>

To prevent malicious / unintended behaviour, you can use JSON_HEX_TAG as suggested by Jon in the comment that links to this SO answer

<script>    
    var sites = {!! json_encode($sites->toArray(), JSON_HEX_TAG) !!};
</script>

How can I clear the SQL Server query cache?

EXEC sys.sp_configure N'max server memory (MB)', N'2147483646'
GO
RECONFIGURE WITH OVERRIDE
GO

What value you specify for the server memory is not important, as long as it differs from the current one.

Btw, the thing that causes the speedup is not the query cache, but the data cache.

Remove characters except digits from string using Python?

print( buffer )

How can I calculate the difference between two ArrayLists?

I guess you're talking about C#. If so, you can try this

    ArrayList CompareArrayList(ArrayList a, ArrayList b)
    {
        ArrayList output = new ArrayList();
        for (int i = 0; i < a.Count; i++)
        {
            string str = (string)a[i];
            if (!b.Contains(str))
            {
                if(!output.Contains(str)) // check for dupes
                    output.Add(str);
            }
        }
        return output;
    }

byte[] to hex string

I think I made a faster byte array to string convertor:

public static class HexTable
{
    private static readonly string[] table = BitConverter.ToString(Enumerable.Range(0, 256).Select(x => (byte)x).ToArray()).Split('-');

    public static string ToHexTable(byte[] value)
    {
        StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder(2 * value.Length);

        for (int i = 0; i < value.Length; i++)
            sb.Append(table[value[i]]);

        return sb.ToString();
    }

And the test set up:

static void Main(string[] args)
{
        const int TEST_COUNT = 10000;
        const int BUFFER_LENGTH = 100000;

        Random random = new Random();

        Stopwatch sw = new Stopwatch();
        Stopwatch sw2 = new Stopwatch();

        byte[] buffer = new byte[BUFFER_LENGTH];
        random.NextBytes(buffer);

        sw.Start();
        for (int j = 0; j < TEST_COUNT; j++)
            HexTable.ToHexTable(buffer);

        sw.Stop();

        sw2.Start();
        for (int j = 0; j < TEST_COUNT; j++)
            ToHexChar.ToHex(buffer);

        sw2.Stop();

        Console.WriteLine("Hex Table Elapsed Milliseconds: {0}", sw.ElapsedMilliseconds);
        Console.WriteLine("ToHex Elapsed Milliseconds: {0}", sw2.ElapsedMilliseconds);
    }

The ToHexChar.ToHEx() method is the ToHex() method shown previously.

Results are as follows:

HexTable = 11808 ms ToHEx = 12168ms

It may not look that much of a difference, but it's still faster :)

How to change the default message of the required field in the popover of form-control in bootstrap?

Combination of Mritunjay and Bartu's answers are full answer to this question. I copying the full example.

<input class="form-control" type="email"  required="" placeholder="username"
 oninvalid="this.setCustomValidity('Please Enter valid email')"
 oninput="setCustomValidity('')"></input>

Here,

this.setCustomValidity('Please Enter valid email')" - Display the custom message on invalidated of the field

oninput="setCustomValidity('')" - Remove the invalidate message on validated filed.

Why use deflate instead of gzip for text files served by Apache?

On Ubuntu with Apache2 and the deflate module already installed (which it is by default), you can enable deflate gzip compression in two easy steps:

a2enmod deflate
/etc/init.d/apache2 force-reload

And you're away! I found pages I served over my adsl connection loaded much faster.

Edit: As per @GertvandenBerg's comment, this enables gzip compression, not deflate.

How to check command line parameter in ".bat" file?

You are comparing strings. If an arguments are omitted, %1 expands to a blank so the commands become IF =="-b" GOTO SPECIFIC for example (which is a syntax error). Wrap your strings in quotes (or square brackets).

IF [%1]==[/?] GOTO BLANK

REM I'd recommend using quotes exclusively
IF "%1"=="-b" GOTO SPECIFIC

IF NOT "%1"=="-b" GOTO UNKNOWN

Single statement across multiple lines in VB.NET without the underscore character

I know that this has an accepted answer, but it is the top article I found when searching for this question, and it is very out of date now.

How to create a file with a given size in Linux?

You can do it programmatically:

#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int main() {
    int fd = creat("/tmp/foo.txt", 0644);
    ftruncate(fd, SIZE_IN_BYTES);
    close(fd);
    return 0;
}

This approach is especially useful to subsequently mmap the file into memory.

use the following command to check that the file has the correct size:

# du -B1 --apparent-size /tmp/foo.txt

Be careful:

# du /tmp/foo.txt

will probably print 0 because it is allocated as Sparse file if supported by your filesystem.

try/catch with InputMismatchException creates infinite loop

As the bError = false statement is never reached in the try block, and the statement is struck to the input taken, it keeps printing the error in infinite loop.

Try using it this way by using hasNextInt()

catch (Exception e) {
            System.out.println("Error!");
           input.hasNextInt();         
        }

Or try using nextLine() coupled with Integer.parseInt() for taking input....

Scanner scan = new Scanner(System.in);

int num1 = Integer.parseInt(scan.nextLine());
int num2 = Integer.parseInt(scan.nextLine());

TypeError: 'bool' object is not callable

You do cls.isFilled = True. That overwrites the method called isFilled and replaces it with the value True. That method is now gone and you can't call it anymore. So when you try to call it again you get an error, since it's not there anymore.

The solution is use a different name for the variable than you do for the method.

What does %s mean in a python format string?

Andrew's answer is good.

And just to help you out a bit more, here's how you use multiple formatting in one string

"Hello %s, my name is %s" % ('john', 'mike') # Hello john, my name is mike".

If you are using ints instead of string, use %d instead of %s.

You don't import scripts in Python you import modules. Some python modules are also scripts that you can run directly (they do some useful work at a module-level).

In general it is preferable to use absolute imports rather than relative imports.

toplevel_package/
+-- __init__.py
+-- moduleA.py
+-- subpackage
    +-- __init__.py
    +-- moduleB.py

In moduleB:

from toplevel_package import moduleA

If you'd like to run moduleB.py as a script then make sure that parent directory for toplevel_package is in your sys.path.

Python Prime number checker

This would do the job:

number=int(raw_input("Enter a number to see if its prime:"))
if number <= 1:
    print "number is not prime"
else:
    a=2
    check = True
    while a != number:
        if number%a == 0:
            print "Number is not prime"
            check = False
            break
        a+=1
    if check == True:
        print "Number is prime" 

How to add a form load event (currently not working)

Three ways you can do this - from the form designer, select the form, and where you normally see the list of properties, just above it there should be a little lightning symbol - this shows you all the events of the form. Find the form load event in the list, and you should be able to pick ProgramViwer_Load from the dropdown.

A second way to do it is programmatically - somewhere (constructor maybe) you'd need to add it, something like: ProgramViwer.Load += new EventHandler(ProgramViwer_Load);

A third way using the designer (probably the quickest) - when you create a new form, double click on the middle of it on it in design mode. It'll create a Form load event for you, hook it in, and take you to the event handler code. Then you can just add your two lines and you're good to go!

Django template how to look up a dictionary value with a variable

For me creating a python file named template_filters.py in my App with below content did the job

# coding=utf-8
from django.template.base import Library

register = Library()


@register.filter
def get_item(dictionary, key):
    return dictionary.get(key)

usage is like what culebrón said :

{{ mydict|get_item:item.NAME }}

Error - replacement has [x] rows, data has [y]

The answer by @akrun certainly does the trick. For future googlers who want to understand why, here is an explanation...

The new variable needs to be created first.

The variable "valueBin" needs to be already in the df in order for the conditional assignment to work. Essentially, the syntax of the code is correct. Just add one line in front of the code chuck to create this name --

df$newVariableName <- NA

Then you continue with whatever conditional assignment rules you have, like

df$newVariableName[which(df$oldVariableName<=250)] <- "<=250"

I blame whoever wrote that package's error message... The debugging was made especially confusing by that error message. It is irrelevant information that you have two arrays in the df with different lengths. No. Simply create the new column first.

How to grant remote access permissions to mysql server for user?

Two steps:

  1. set up user with wildcard:
    create user 'root'@'%' identified by 'some_characters'; GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'root'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY PASSWORD 'some_characters' WITH GRANT OPTION

  2. vim /etc/my.cnf
    add the following:
    bind-address=0.0.0.0

restart server, you should not have any problem connecting to it.

Why is my xlabel cut off in my matplotlib plot?

An easy option is to configure matplotlib to automatically adjust the plot size. It works perfectly for me and I'm not sure why it's not activated by default.

Method 1

Set this in your matplotlibrc file

figure.autolayout : True

See here for more information on customizing the matplotlibrc file: http://matplotlib.org/users/customizing.html

Method 2

Update the rcParams during runtime like this

from matplotlib import rcParams
rcParams.update({'figure.autolayout': True})

The advantage of using this approach is that your code will produce the same graphs on differently-configured machines.

Finding the source code for built-in Python functions?

2 methods,

  1. You can check usage about snippet using help()
  2. you can check hidden code for those modules using inspect

1) inspect:

use inpsect module to explore code you want... NOTE: you can able to explore code only for modules (aka) packages you have imported

for eg:

  >>> import randint  
  >>> from inspect import getsource
  >>> getsource(randint) # here i am going to explore code for package called `randint`

2) help():

you can simply use help() command to get help about builtin functions as well its code.

for eg: if you want to see the code for str() , simply type - help(str)

it will return like this,

>>> help(str)
Help on class str in module __builtin__:

class str(basestring)
 |  str(object='') -> string
 |
 |  Return a nice string representation of the object.
 |  If the argument is a string, the return value is the same object.
 |
 |  Method resolution order:
 |      str
 |      basestring
 |      object
 |
 |  Methods defined here:
 |
 |  __add__(...)
 |      x.__add__(y) <==> x+y
 |
 |  __contains__(...)
 |      x.__contains__(y) <==> y in x
 |
 |  __eq__(...)
 |      x.__eq__(y) <==> x==y
 |
 |  __format__(...)
 |      S.__format__(format_spec) -> string
 |
 |      Return a formatted version of S as described by format_spec.
 |
 |  __ge__(...)
 |      x.__ge__(y) <==> x>=y
 |
 |  __getattribute__(...)

Inversion of Control vs Dependency Injection

DI and IOC are two design pattern that mainly focusing on providing loose coupling between components, or simply a way in which we decouple the conventional dependency relationships between object so that the objects are not tight to each other.

With following examples, I am trying to explain both these concepts.

Previously we are writing code like this

Public MyClass{
 DependentClass dependentObject
 /*
  At somewhere in our code we need to instantiate 
  the object with new operator  inorder to use it or perform some method.
  */ 
  dependentObject= new DependentClass();
  dependentObject.someMethod();
}

With Dependency injection, the dependency injector will take care of the instantiation of objects

Public MyClass{
 /* Dependency injector will instantiate object*/
 DependentClass dependentObject

 /*
  At somewhere in our code we perform some method. 
  The process of  instantiation will be handled by the dependency injector
 */ 

  dependentObject.someMethod();
}

The above process of giving the control to some other (for example the container) for the instantiation and injection can be termed as Inversion of Control and the process in which the IOC container inject the dependency for us can be termed as dependency injection.

IOC is the principle where the control flow of a program is inverted: instead of the programmer controlling the flow of a program, program controls the flow by reducing the overhead to the programmer.and the process used by the program to inject dependency is termed as DI

The two concepts work together providing us with a way to write much more flexible, reusable, and encapsulated code, which make them as important concepts in designing object-oriented solutions.

Also Recommend to read.

MySQL error: key specification without a key length

Nobody mentioned it so far... with utf8mb4 which is 4-byte and can also store emoticons (we should never more use 3-byte utf8) and we can avoid errors like Incorrect string value: \xF0\x9F\x98\... we should not use typical VARCHAR(255) but rather VARCHAR(191) because in case utf8mb4 and VARCHAR(255) same part of data are stored off-page and you can not create index for column VARCHAR(255) but for VARCHAR(191) you can. It is because the maximum indexed column size is 767 bytes for ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT or ROW_FORMAT=REDUNDANT.

For newer row formats ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC or ROW_FORMAT=COMPRESSED (which requires newer file format innodb_file_format=Barracuda not older Antelope) maximum indexed column size is 3072. It is available since MySQL >= 5.6.3 when innodb_large_prefix=1 (disabled by default for MySQL <= 5.7.6 and enabled by default for MySQL >= 5.7.7). So in this case we can use VARCHAR(768) for utf8mb4 (or VARCHAR(1024) for old utf8) for indexed column. Option innodb_large_prefix is deprecated since 5.7.7 because its behavior is built-in MySQL 8 (in this version is option removed).

enum to string in modern C++11 / C++14 / C++17 and future C++20

(The approach of the better_enums library)

There is a way to do enum to string in current C++ that looks like this:

ENUM(Channel, char, Red = 1, Green, Blue)

// "Same as":
// enum class Channel : char { Red = 1, Green, Blue };

Usage:

Channel     c = Channel::_from_string("Green");  // Channel::Green (2)
c._to_string();                                  // string "Green"

for (Channel c : Channel::_values())
    std::cout << c << std::endl;

// And so on...

All operations can be made constexpr. You can also implement the C++17 reflection proposal mentioned in the answer by @ecatmur.

  • There is only one macro. I believe this is the minimum possible, because preprocessor stringization (#) is the only way to convert a token to a string in current C++.
  • The macro is pretty unobtrusive – the constant declarations, including initializers, are pasted into a built-in enum declaration. This means they have the same syntax and meaning as in a built-in enum.
  • Repetition is eliminated.
  • The implementation is most natural and useful in at least C++11, due to constexpr. It can also be made to work with C++98 + __VA_ARGS__. It is definitely modern C++.

The macro's definition is somewhat involved, so I'm answering this in several ways.

  • The bulk of this answer is an implementation that I think is suitable for the space constraints on StackOverflow.
  • There is also a CodeProject article describing the basics of the implementation in a long-form tutorial. [Should I move it here? I think it's too much for a SO answer].
  • There is a full-featured library "Better Enums" that implements the macro in a single header file. It also implements N4428 Type Property Queries, the current revision of the C++17 reflection proposal N4113. So, at least for enums declared through this macro, you can have the proposed C++17 enum reflection now, in C++11/C++14.

It is straightforward to extend this answer to the features of the library – nothing "important" is left out here. It is, however, quite tedious, and there are compiler portability concerns.

Disclaimer: I am the author of both the CodeProject article and the library.

You can try the code in this answer, the library, and the implementation of N4428 live online in Wandbox. The library documentation also contains an overview of how to use it as N4428, which explains the enums portion of that proposal.


Explanation

The code below implements conversions between enums and strings. However, it can be extended to do other things as well, such as iteration. This answer wraps an enum in a struct. You can also generate a traits struct alongside an enum instead.

The strategy is to generate something like this:

struct Channel {
    enum _enum : char { __VA_ARGS__ };
    constexpr static const Channel          _values[] = { __VA_ARGS__ };
    constexpr static const char * const     _names[] = { #__VA_ARGS__ };

    static const char* _to_string(Channel v) { /* easy */ }
    constexpr static Channel _from_string(const char *s) { /* easy */ }
};

The problems are:

  1. We will end up with something like {Red = 1, Green, Blue} as the initializer for the values array. This is not valid C++, because Red is not an assignable expression. This is solved by casting each constant to a type T that has an assignment operator, but will drop the assignment: {(T)Red = 1, (T)Green, (T)Blue}.
  2. Similarly, we will end up with {"Red = 1", "Green", "Blue"} as the initializer for the names array. We will need to trim off the " = 1". I am not aware of a great way to do this at compile time, so we will defer this to run time. As a result, _to_string won't be constexpr, but _from_string can still be constexpr, because we can treat whitespace and equals signs as terminators when comparing with untrimmed strings.
  3. Both the above need a "mapping" macro that can apply another macro to each element in __VA_ARGS__. This is pretty standard. This answer includes a simple version that can handle up to 8 elements.
  4. If the macro is to be truly self-contained, it needs to declare no static data that requires a separate definition. In practice, this means arrays need special treatment. There are two possible solutions: constexpr (or just const) arrays at namespace scope, or regular arrays in non-constexpr static inline functions. The code in this answer is for C++11 and takes the former approach. The CodeProject article is for C++98 and takes the latter.

// expansion of __VA_ARGS__ on Visual C++ compilers.

}

    return

        s[index] != untrimmed[index] ? false :
        matches_untrimmed(untrimmed, s, index + 1);
}



// The macro proper.
//
// There are several "simplifications" in this implementation, for the
// sake of brevity. First, we have only one viable option for declaring
// constexpr arrays: at namespace scope. This probably should be done
// two namespaces deep: one namespace that is likely to be unique for
// our little enum "library", then inside it a namespace whose name is
// based on the name of the enum to avoid collisions with other enums.
// I am using only one level of nesting.
//
// Declaring constexpr arrays inside the struct is not viable because
// they will need out-of-line definitions, which will result in
// duplicate symbols when linking. This can be solved with weak
// symbols, but that is compiler- and system-specific. It is not
// possible to declare constexpr arrays as static variables in
// constexpr functions due to the restrictions on such functions.
//
// Note that this prevents the use of this macro anywhere except at
// namespace scope. Ironically, the C++98 version of this, which can
// declare static arrays inside static member functions, is actually
// more flexible in this regard. It is shown in the CodeProject
// article.
//
// Second, for compilation performance reasons, it is best to separate
// the macro into a "parametric" portion, and the portion that depends
// on knowing __VA_ARGS__, and factor the former out into a template.
//
// Third, this code uses a default parameter in _from_string that may
// be better not exposed in the public interface.

ENUM(Channel, char, Red = 1, Green, Blue)

constexpr Channel   channel = Channel::_from_string("Red");

int main()
{
    std::cout << channel._to_string() << std::endl;

    switch (channel) {
        case Channel::Red:   return 0;
        case Channel::Green: return 1;
        case Channel::Blue:  return 2;
    }
}

static_assert(sizeof(Channel) == sizeof(char), "");

The program above prints Red, as you would expect. There is a degree of type safety, since you can't create an enum without initializing it, and deleting one of the cases from the switch will result in a warning from the compiler (depending on your compiler and flags). Also, note that "Red" was converted to an enum during compilation.

Set value to an entire column of a pandas dataframe

Python can do unexpected things when new objects are defined from existing ones. You stated in a comment above that your dataframe is defined along the lines of df = df_all.loc[df_all['issueid']==specific_id,:]. In this case, df is really just a stand-in for the rows stored in the df_all object: a new object is NOT created in memory.

To avoid these issues altogether, I often have to remind myself to use the copy module, which explicitly forces objects to be copied in memory so that methods called on the new objects are not applied to the source object. I had the same problem as you, and avoided it using the deepcopy function.

In your case, this should get rid of the warning message:

from copy import deepcopy
df = deepcopy(df_all.loc[df_all['issueid']==specific_id,:])
df['industry'] = 'yyy'

EDIT: Also see David M.'s excellent comment below!

df = df_all.loc[df_all['issueid']==specific_id,:].copy()
df['industry'] = 'yyy'

Figure out size of UILabel based on String in Swift

Swift 5:

If you have UILabel and someway boundingRect isn't working for you (I faced this problem. It always returned 1 line height.) there is an extension to easily calculate label size.

extension UILabel {
    func getSize(constrainedWidth: CGFloat) -> CGSize {
        return systemLayoutSizeFitting(CGSize(width: constrainedWidth, height: UIView.layoutFittingCompressedSize.height), withHorizontalFittingPriority: .required, verticalFittingPriority: .fittingSizeLevel)
    }
}

You can use it like this:

let label = UILabel()
label.text = "My text\nIs\nAwesome"
let labelSize = label.getSize(constrainedWidth:200.0)

How to convert string to double with proper cultureinfo

I have this function in my toolbelt since years ago (all the function and variable names are messy and mixing Spanish and English, sorry for that).

It lets the user use , and . to separate the decimals and will try to do the best if both symbols are used.

    Public Shared Function TryCDec(ByVal texto As String, Optional ByVal DefaultValue As Decimal = 0) As Decimal

        If String.IsNullOrEmpty(texto) Then
            Return DefaultValue
        End If

        Dim CurAsTexto As String = texto.Trim.Replace("$", "").Replace(" ", "")

        ''// You can probably use a more modern way to find out the
        ''// System current locale, this function was done long time ago
        Dim SepDecimal As String, SepMiles As String
        If CDbl("3,24") = 324 Then
            SepDecimal = "."

        Else
            SepDecimal = ","
            SepMiles = "."

        If InStr(CurAsTexto, SepDecimal) > 0 Then
            If InStr(CurAsTexto, SepMiles) > 0 Then
                ''//both symbols was used find out what was correct
                If InStr(CurAsTexto, SepDecimal) > InStr(CurAsTexto, SepMiles) Then
                    ''// The usage was correct, but get rid of thousand separator
                    CurAsTexto = Replace(CurAsTexto, SepMiles, "")
                Else
                    ''// The usage was incorrect, but get rid of decimal separator and then replace it
                    CurAsTexto = Replace(CurAsTexto, SepDecimal, "")
                    CurAsTexto = Replace(CurAsTexto, SepMiles, SepDecimal)

Javascript: How to pass a function with string parameters as a parameter to another function

One way would be to just escape the quotes properly:

<input type="button" value="click" id="mybtn"
       onclick="myfunction('/myController/myAction', 
               'myfuncionOnOK(\'/myController2/myAction2\', 
                   \'myParameter2\');',
               'myfuncionOnCancel(\'/myController3/myAction3\', 
                   \'myParameter3\');');">

In this case, though, I think a better way to handle this would be to wrap the two handlers in anonymous functions:

<input type="button" value="click" id="mybtn"
       onclick="myfunction('/myController/myAction', 
                function() { myfuncionOnOK('/myController2/myAction2', 
                             'myParameter2'); },
                function() { myfuncionOnCancel('/myController3/myAction3', 
                             'myParameter3'); });">

And then, you could call them from within myfunction like this:

function myfunction(url, onOK, onCancel)
{
    // Do whatever myfunction would normally do...

    if (okClicked)
    {
        onOK();
    }

    if (cancelClicked)
    {
        onCancel();
    }
}

That's probably not what myfunction would actually look like, but you get the general idea. The point is, if you use anonymous functions, you have a lot more flexibility, and you keep your code a lot cleaner as well.

Replacing values from a column using a condition in R

# reassign depth values under 10 to zero
df$depth[df$depth<10] <- 0

(For the columns that are factors, you can only assign values that are factor levels. If you wanted to assign a value that wasn't currently a factor level, you would need to create the additional level first:

levels(df$species) <- c(levels(df$species), "unknown") 
df$species[df$depth<10]  <- "unknown" 

Get a CSS value with JavaScript

The cross-browser solution without DOM manipulation given above does not work because it gives the first matching rule, not the last. The last matching rule is the one which applies. Here is a working version:

function getStyleRuleValue(style, selector) {
  let value = null;
  for (let i = 0; i < document.styleSheets.length; i++) {
    const mysheet = document.styleSheets[i];
    const myrules = mysheet.cssRules ? mysheet.cssRules : mysheet.rules;
    for (let j = 0; j < myrules.length; j++) {
      if (myrules[j].selectorText && 
          myrules[j].selectorText.toLowerCase() === selector) {
        value =  myrules[j].style[style];
      }
    }
  }
  return value;
}  

However, this simple search will not work in case of complex selectors.

Fatal error: Class 'Illuminate\Foundation\Application' not found

In my situation, I didn't have the full vendor dependencies in place (composer file was messed up during original install) - so running any artisan commands caused a failure.

How can I set / change DNS using the command-prompt at windows 8

Now you can change the primary dns (index=1), assuming that your interface is static (not using dhcp)

You can set your DNS servers statically even if you use DHCP to obtain your IP address.

Example under Windows 7 to add two DN servers, the command is as follows:

netsh interface ipv4 add dns "Local Area Connection" address=192.168.x.x index=1 netsh interface ipv4 add dns "Local Area Connection" address=192.168.x.x index=2

replacing NA's with 0's in R dataframe

Here are two quickie approaches I know of:

In base

AQ1 <- airquality
AQ1[is.na(AQ1 <- airquality)] <- 0
AQ1

Not in base

library(qdap)
NAer(airquality)

PS P.S. Does my command above create a new dataframe called AQ1?

Look at AQ1 and see

Change color of bootstrap navbar on hover link?

Something like this has worked for me (with Bootstrap 3):

.navbar-nav > li > a:hover, .navbar-default .navbar-nav > li > a:focus{
    font-family: proxima-nova;
    font-style: normal;
    font-weight: 100;
    letter-spacing: 3px;
    text-transform: uppercase;
    color: black;
} 

In my case I also wanted the link text to remain black before the hover so i added .navbar-nav > li > a

.navbar-nav > li > a:hover, .navbar-default .navbar-nav > li > a:focus, .navbar-nav > li > a{
    font-family: proxima-nova;
    font-style: normal;
    font-weight: 100;
    letter-spacing: 3px;
    text-transform: uppercase;
    color: black;

Skipping Iterations in Python

For this specific use-case using try..except..else is the cleanest solution, the else clause will be executed if no exception was raised.

        # Do something.
    except:
        # Handle exception
    else:
        # Continue doing something

How do I pull files from remote without overwriting local files?

So you have committed your local changes to your local repository. Then in order to get remote changes to your local repository without making changes to your local files, you can use git fetch. Actually git pull is a two step operation: a non-destructive git fetch followed by a git merge. See What is the difference between 'git pull' and 'git fetch'? for more discussion.

Detailed example:

Suppose your repository is like this (you've made changes test2:

* ed0bcb2 - (HEAD, master) test2
* 4942854 - (origin/master, origin/HEAD) first

And the origin repository is like this (someone else has committed test1):

* 5437ca5 - (HEAD, master) test1
* 4942854 - first

At this point of time, git will complain and ask you to pull first if you try to push your test2 to remote repository. If you want to see what test1 is without modifying your local repository, run this:

$ git fetch

Your result local repository would be like this:

* ed0bcb2 - (HEAD, master) test2 
| * 5437ca5 - (origin/master, origin/HEAD) test1 
|/  
* 4942854 - first 

Now you have the remote changes in another branch, and you keep your local files intact.

Then what's next? You can do a git merge, which will be the same effect as git pull (when combined with the previous git fetch), or, as I would prefer, do a git rebase origin/master to apply your change on top of origin/master, which gives you a cleaner history.

Automatically plot different colored lines

Late to the party. I was looking into this myself and just found about this axes option called ColorOrder you can specify the colour order for the session or just for the figure and then just plot an array and let MATLAB automatically cycle through the colours specified.

A=rand(10,5);
plot(A);

How to display a loading screen while site content loads

There's actually a pretty easy way to do this. The code should be something like:

<script type="test/javascript">

    function showcontent(x){

      if(window.XMLHttpRequest) {
        xmlhttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
      } else {
        xmlhttp = new ActiveXObject('Microsoft.XMLHTTP');
      }

      xmlhttp.onreadystatechange = function() {
        if(xmlhttp.readyState == 1) {
            document.getElementById('content').innerHTML = "<img src='loading.gif' />";
        }
        if(xmlhttp.readyState == 4 && xmlhttp.status == 200) {
          document.getElementById('content').innerHTML = xmlhttp.responseText;
        } 
      }

      xmlhttp.open('POST', x+'.html', true);
      xmlhttp.setRequestHeader('Content-type','application/x-www-form-urlencoded');
      xmlhttp.send(null);

    }

And in the HTML:

<body onload="showcontent(main)"> <!-- onload optional -->
<div id="content"><img src="loading.gif"></div> <!-- leave img out if not onload -->
</body>

I did something like that on my page and it works great.

How to check if a symlink exists

-L returns true if the "file" exists and is a symbolic link (the linked file may or may not exist). You want -f (returns true if file exists and is a regular file) or maybe just -e (returns true if file exists regardless of type).

According to the GNU manpage, -h is identical to -L, but according to the BSD manpage, it should not be used:

-h file True if file exists and is a symbolic link. This operator is retained for compatibility with previous versions of this program. Do not rely on its existence; use -L instead.

Based on the answer of @JustinMorris above and @NiravDangi here https://stackoverflow.com/a/8504958/2232148 we must take the background and foreground of a view and assemble them like this:

public static Bitmap takeScreenshot(View view, Bitmap.Config quality) {
    Bitmap bitmap = Bitmap.createBitmap(view.getWidth(), view.getHeight(), quality);
    Canvas canvas = new Canvas(bitmap);

    Drawable backgroundDrawable = view.getBackground();
    if (backgroundDrawable != null) {
        backgroundDrawable.draw(canvas);
    } else {
        canvas.drawColor(Color.WHITE);
    }
    view.draw(canvas);

    return bitmap;
}

The quality parameter takes a constant of Bitmap.Config, typically either Bitmap.Config.RGB_565 or Bitmap.Config.ARGB_8888.

What is the difference between bottom-up and top-down?

Lets take fibonacci series as an example

1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21....

first number: 1
Second number: 1
Third Number: 2

Another way to put it,

Bottom(first) number: 1
Top (Eighth) number on the given sequence: 21

In case of first five fibonacci number

Bottom(first) number :1
Top (fifth) number: 5 

Now lets take a look of recursive Fibonacci series algorithm as an example

public int rcursive(int n) {
    if ((n == 1) || (n == 2)) {
        return 1;
    } else {
        return rcursive(n - 1) + rcursive(n - 2);
    }
}

Now if we execute this program with following commands

rcursive(5);

if we closely look into the algorithm, in-order to generate fifth number it requires 3rd and 4th numbers. So my recursion actually start from top(5) and then goes all the way to bottom/lower numbers. This approach is actually top-down approach.

To avoid doing same calculation multiple times we use Dynamic Programming techniques. We store previously computed value and reuse it. This technique is called memoization. There are more to Dynamic programming other then memoization which is not needed to discuss current problem.

Top-Down

Lets rewrite our original algorithm and add memoized techniques.

public int memoized(int n, int[] memo) {
    if (n <= 2) {
        return 1;
    } else if (memo[n] != -1) {
        return memo[n];
    } else {
        memo[n] = memoized(n - 1, memo) + memoized(n - 2, memo);
    }
    return memo[n];
}

And we execute this method like following

   int n = 5;
    int[] memo = new int[n + 1];
    Arrays.fill(memo, -1);
    memoized(n, memo);

This solution is still top-down as algorithm start from top value and go to bottom each step to get our top value.

Bottom-Up

But, question is, can we start from bottom, like from first fibonacci number then walk our way to up. Lets rewrite it using this techniques,

public int dp(int n) {
    int[] output = new int[n + 1];
    output[1] = 1;
    output[2] = 1;
    for (int i = 3; i <= n; i++) {
        output[i] = output[i - 1] + output[i - 2];
    }
    return output[n];
}

Now if we look into this algorithm it actually start from lower values then go to top. If i need 5th fibonacci number i am actually calculating 1st, then second then third all the way to up 5th number. This techniques actually called bottom-up techniques.

Last two, algorithms full-fill dynamic programming requirements. But one is top-down and another one is bottom-up. Both algorithm has similar space and time complexity.

How to show Bootstrap table with sort icon

BOOTSTRAP 4

you can use a combination of

  • fa-chevron-down, fa-chevron-up

  • fa-sort-down, fa-sort-up

<th class="text-center">
    <div class="btn-group" role="group">
        <button type="button" class="btn btn-xs btn-link py-0 pl-0 pr-1">
             Some Text OR icon
        </button>
        <div class="btn-group-vertical">
            <a href="?sort=asc" class="btn btn-xs btn-link p-0">
                <i class="fas fa-sort-up"></i>
            </a>
            <a href="?sort=desc" class="btn btn-xs btn-link p-0">
                <i class="fas fa-sort-down"></i>
            </a>
        </div>
    </div>

Creating and throwing new exception

To call a specific exception such as FileNotFoundException use this format

if (-not (Test-Path $file)) 
{
    throw [System.IO.FileNotFoundException] "$file not found."
}

To throw a general exception use the throw command followed by a string.

throw "Error trying to do a task"

When used inside a catch, you can provide additional information about what triggered the error
