How to make an HTTP request + basic auth in Swift

my solution works as follows:

import UIKit


class LoginViewController: UIViewController, NSURLConnectionDataDelegate {

  @IBOutlet var usernameTextField: UITextField
  @IBOutlet var passwordTextField: UITextField

  @IBAction func login(sender: AnyObject) {
    var url = NSURL(string: "YOUR_URL")
    var request = NSURLRequest(URL: url)
    var connection = NSURLConnection(request: request, delegate: self, startImmediately: true)

  }

  func connection(connection:NSURLConnection!, willSendRequestForAuthenticationChallenge challenge:NSURLAuthenticationChallenge!) {

    if challenge.previousFailureCount > 1 {

    } else {
        let creds = NSURLCredential(user: usernameTextField.text, password: passwordTextField.text, persistence: NSURLCredentialPersistence.None)
        challenge.sender.useCredential(creds, forAuthenticationChallenge: challenge)

    }

}

  func connection(connection:NSURLConnection!, didReceiveResponse response: NSURLResponse) {
    let status = (response as NSHTTPURLResponse).statusCode
    println("status code is \(status)")
    // 200? Yeah authentication was successful
  }


  override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()

  }

  override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() {
    super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()

  }  
}

You can use this class as the implementation of a ViewController. Connect your fields to the IBOutlet annotated vars and your Button to the IBAction annotated function.

Explanation: In function login you create your request with NSURL, NSURLRequest and NSURLConnection. Essential here is the delegate which references to this class (self). For receiving the delegates calls you need to

  • Add the protocol NSURLConnectionDataDelegate to the class
  • Implement the protocols' function "connection:willSendRequestForAuthenticationChallenge" This is used for adding the credentials to the request
  • Implement the protocols' function "connection:didReceiveResponse" This will check the http response status code

setState() inside of componentDidUpdate()

this.setState creates an infinite loop when used in ComponentDidUpdate when there is no break condition in the loop. You can use redux to set a variable true in the if statement and then in the condition set the variable false then it will work.

Something like this.

if(this.props.route.params.resetFields){

        this.props.route.params.resetFields = false;
        this.setState({broadcastMembersCount: 0,isLinkAttached: false,attachedAffiliatedLink:false,affilatedText: 'add your affiliate link'});
        this.resetSelectedContactAndGroups();
        this.hideNext = false;
        this.initialValue_1 = 140;
        this.initialValue_2 = 140;
        this.height = 20
    }

Can you control how an SVG's stroke-width is drawn?

Here is a work around for inner bordered rect using symbol and use.

Example: https://jsbin.com/yopemiwame/edit?html,output

SVG:

<svg>
  <symbol id="inner-border-rect">
    <rect class="inner-border" width="100%" height="100%" style="fill:rgb(0,255,255);stroke-width:10;stroke:rgb(0,0,0)">
  </symbol>
  ...
  <use xlink:href="#inner-border-rect" x="?" y="?" width="?" height="?">
</svg>

Note: Make sure to replace the ? in use with real values.

Background: The reason why this works is because symbol establishes a new viewport by replacing symbol with svg and creating an element in the shadow DOM. This svg of the shadow DOM is then linked into your current SVG element. Note that svgs can be nested and every svg creates a new viewport, which clips everything that overlaps, including the overlapping border. For a much more detailed overview of whats going on read this fantastic article by Sara Soueidan.

Replacing H1 text with a logo image: best method for SEO and accessibility?

I do it mostly like the one above, but for accessibility reasons, I need to support the possibility of images being disabled in the browser. So, rather than indent the text from the link off the page, I cover it by absolutely positioning the <span> to the full width and height of the <a> and using z-index to place it above the link text in the stacking order.

The price is one empty <span>, but I'm willing to have it there for something as important as an <h1>.

<h1 id="logo">
  <a href="">Stack Overflow<span></span></a>
</h1>
#logo a {
   position:relative;
   display:block;
   width:[image width];
   height:[image height]; }

#logo a span {
   display:block;
   position:absolute;
   width:100%;
   height:100%;
   background:#ffffff url(image.png) no-repeat left top;
   z-index:100; /* Places <span> on top of <a> text */  }

Passing multiple parameters with $.ajax url

Why are you combining GET and POST? Use one or the other.

$.ajax({
    type: 'post',
    data: {
        timestamp: timestamp,
        uid: uid
        ...
    }
});

php:

$uid =$_POST['uid'];

Or, just format your request properly (you're missing the ampersands for the get parameters).

url:"getdata.php?timestamp="+timestamp+"&uid="+id+"&uname="+name,

How do I use Bash on Windows from the Visual Studio Code integrated terminal?

Things has been a little bit changed due to the latest updates on Visual Studio Code. The following steps work for me.

  1. Press Ctrl + Shift + P to open the Visual Studio Code command palate.

  2. Type >preferences: Open Settings (JSON) in the text area.

  3. Add the following lines at the end of the JSON file which is displayed in your right hand pane.

    "terminal.integrated.shell.windows": "C:\\Program Files\\Git\\bin\\bash.exe"
    
  4. Close and reopen your Visual Studio Code instance.

python to arduino serial read & write

First you have to install a module call Serial. To do that go to the folder call Scripts which is located in python installed folder. If you are using Python 3 version it's normally located in location below,

C:\Python34\Scripts  

Once you open that folder right click on that folder with shift key. Then click on 'open command window here'. After that cmd will pop up. Write the below code in that cmd window,

pip install PySerial

and press enter.after that PySerial module will be installed. Remember to install the module u must have an INTERNET connection.


after successfully installed the module open python IDLE and write down the bellow code and run it.

import serial
# "COM11" is the port that your Arduino board is connected.set it to port that your are using        
ser = serial.Serial("COM11", 9600)
while True:
    cc=str(ser.readline())
    print(cc[2:][:-5])   

React - How to get parameter value from query string?

When using React hooks there is no access to access to this.props.location. To capture url parameters use window object.

const search = window.location.search;
const params = new URLSearchParams(search);
const foo = params.get('bar');

CSS Layout - Dynamic width DIV

Or, if you know the width of the two "side" images and don't want to deal with floats:

<div class="container">
    <div class="left-panel"><img src="myleftimage" /></div>
    <div class="center-panel">Content goes here...</div>
    <div class="right-panel"><img src="myrightimage" /></div>
</div>

CSS:

.container {
    position:relative;
    padding-left:50px;
    padding-right:50px;
}

.container .left-panel {
    width: 50px;
    position:absolute;
    left:0px;
    top:0px;
}

.container .right-panel {
    width: 50px;
    position:absolute;
    right:0px;
    top:0px;
}

.container .center-panel {
    background: url('mymiddleimage');
}

Notes:

Position:relative on the parent div is used to make absolutely positioned children position themselves relative to that node.

Use CSS3 transitions with gradient backgrounds

Gradients don't support transitions yet (although the current spec says they should support like gradient to like gradient transitions via interpolation.).

If you want a fade-in effect with a background gradient, you have to set an opacity on a container element and 'transition` the opacity.

(There have been some browser releases that supported transitions on gradients (e.g IE10. I tested gradient transitions in 2016 in IE and they seemed to work at the time, but my test code no longer works.)

Update: October 2018 Gradient transitions with un-prefixed new syntax [e.g. radial-gradient(...)]now confirmed to work (again?) on Microsoft Edge 17.17134. I don't know when this was added. Still not working on latest Firefox & Chrome / Windows 10.

how concatenate two variables in batch script?

You can do it without setlocal, because of the setlocal command the variable won't survive an endlocal because it was created in setlocal. In this way the variable will be defined the right way.

To do that use this code:

set var1=A

set var2=B

set AB=hi

call set newvar=%%%var1%%var2%%%

echo %newvar% 

Note: You MUST use call before you set the variable or it won't work.

Content Type text/xml; charset=utf-8 was not supported by service

In my case, I had to specify messageEncoding to Mtom in app.config of the client application like that:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<configuration>
    <startup> 
        <supportedRuntime version="v4.0" sku=".NETFramework,Version=v4.6.1" />
    </startup>
    <system.serviceModel>
        <bindings>
            <basicHttpBinding>
                <binding name="IntegrationServiceSoap" messageEncoding="Mtom"/>
            </basicHttpBinding>
        </bindings>
        <client>
            <endpoint address="http://localhost:29495/IntegrationService.asmx"
                binding="basicHttpBinding" bindingConfiguration="IntegrationServiceSoap"
                contract="IntegrationService.IntegrationServiceSoap" name="IntegrationServiceSoap" />
        </client>
    </system.serviceModel>
</configuration>

Both my client and server use basicHttpBinding. I hope this helps the others :)

Unix's 'ls' sort by name

Files being different only by a numerical string can be sorted on this number at the condition that it is preceded by a separator.

In this case, the following syntax can be used:

ls -x1 file | sort -t'<char>' -n -k2

Example:

ls -1 TRA*log | sort -t'_' -n -k2

TRACE_1.log
TRACE_2.log
TRACE_3.log
TRACE_4.log
TRACE_5.log
TRACE_6.log
TRACE_7.log
TRACE_8.log
TRACE_9.log
TRACE_10.log

Reading HTML content from a UIWebView

Note that the NSString stringWithContentsOfURL will report a totally different user-agent string than the UIWebView making the same request. So if your server is user-agent aware, and sending back different html depending on who is asking for it, you may not get correct results this way.

Also note that the @"document.body.innerHTML" mentioned above will only display what is in the body tag. If you use @"document.all[0].innerHTML" you will get both head and body. Which is still not the complete contents of the UIWebView, since it will not get back the !doctype or html tags, but it is a lot closer.

What does servletcontext.getRealPath("/") mean and when should I use it

Introduction

The ServletContext#getRealPath() is intented to convert a web content path (the path in the expanded WAR folder structure on the server's disk file system) to an absolute disk file system path.

The "/" represents the web content root. I.e. it represents the web folder as in the below project structure:

YourWebProject
 |-- src
 |    :
 |
 |-- web
 |    |-- META-INF
 |    |    `-- MANIFEST.MF
 |    |-- WEB-INF
 |    |    `-- web.xml
 |    |-- index.jsp
 |    `-- login.jsp
 :    

So, passing the "/" to getRealPath() would return you the absolute disk file system path of the /web folder of the expanded WAR file of the project. Something like /path/to/server/work/folder/some.war/ which you should be able to further use in File or FileInputStream.

Note that most starters don't seem to see/realize that you can actually pass the whole web content path to it and that they often use

String absolutePathToIndexJSP = servletContext.getRealPath("/") + "index.jsp"; // Wrong!

or even

String absolutePathToIndexJSP = servletContext.getRealPath("") + "index.jsp"; // Wronger!

instead of

String absolutePathToIndexJSP = servletContext.getRealPath("/index.jsp"); // Right!

Don't ever write files in there

Also note that even though you can write new files into it using FileOutputStream, all changes (e.g. new files or edited files) will get lost whenever the WAR is redeployed; with the simple reason that all those changes are not contained in the original WAR file. So all starters who are attempting to save uploaded files in there are doing it wrong.

Moreover, getRealPath() will always return null or a completely unexpected path when the server isn't configured to expand the WAR file into the disk file system, but instead into e.g. memory as a virtual file system.

getRealPath() is unportable; you'd better never use it

Use getRealPath() carefully. There are actually no sensible real world use cases for it. Based on my 20 years of Java EE experience, there has always been another way which is much better and more portable than getRealPath().

If all you actually need is to get an InputStream of the web resource, better use ServletContext#getResourceAsStream() instead, this will work regardless of the way how the WAR is expanded. So, if you for example want an InputStream of index.jsp, then do not do:

InputStream input = new FileInputStream(servletContext.getRealPath("/index.jsp")); // Wrong!

But instead do:

InputStream input = servletContext.getResourceAsStream("/index.jsp"); // Right!

Or if you intend to obtain a list of all available web resource paths, use ServletContext#getResourcePaths() instead.

Set<String> resourcePaths = servletContext.getResourcePaths("/");

You can obtain an individual resource as URL via ServletContext#getResource(). This will return null when the resource does not exist.

URL resource = servletContext.getResource(path);

Or if you intend to save an uploaded file, or create a temporary file, then see the below "See also" links.

Cell Style Alignment on a range

Maybe declaring a range might workout better for you.

// fill in the starting and ending range programmatically this is just an example. 
string startRange = "A1";
string endRange = "A1";
Excel.Range currentRange = (Excel.Range)excelWorksheet.get_Range(startRange , endRange );
currentRange.Style.HorizontalAlignment = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.XlHAlign.xlHAlignLeft;

Understanding generators in Python

I put up this piece of code which explains 3 key concepts about generators:

def numbers():
    for i in range(10):
            yield i

gen = numbers() #this line only returns a generator object, it does not run the code defined inside numbers

for i in gen: #we iterate over the generator and the values are printed
    print(i)

#the generator is now empty

for i in gen: #so this for block does not print anything
    print(i)

When should I use Async Controllers in ASP.NET MVC?

My 5 cents:

  1. Use async/await if and only if you do an IO operation, like DB or external service webservice.
  2. Always prefer async calls to DB.
  3. Each time you query the DB.

P.S. There are exceptional cases for point 1, but you need to have a good understanding of async internals for this.

As an additional advantage, you can do few IO calls in parallel if needed:

Task task1 = FooAsync(); // launch it, but don't wait for result
Task task2 = BarAsync(); // launch bar; now both foo and bar are running
await Task.WhenAll(task1, task2); // this is better in regard to exception handling
// use task1.Result, task2.Result

Optimal way to DELETE specified rows from Oracle

I have tried this code and It's working fine in my case.

DELETE FROM NG_USR_0_CLIENT_GRID_NEW WHERE rowid IN
( SELECT rowid FROM
  (
      SELECT wi_name, relationship, ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY rowid DESC) RN
      FROM NG_USR_0_CLIENT_GRID_NEW
      WHERE wi_name = 'NB-0000001385-Process'
  )
  WHERE RN=2
);

Bootstrap 4 - Inline List?

Shouldn't it be just the .list-group? See below,

<ul class="list-group">
  <li class="list-group-item active">Cras justo odio</li>
  <li class="list-group-item">Dapibus ac facilisis in</li>
  <li class="list-group-item">Morbi leo risus</li>
  <li class="list-group-item">Porta ac consectetur ac</li>
  <li class="list-group-item">Vestibulum at eros</li>
</ul>

How to run DOS/CMD/Command Prompt commands from VB.NET?

You could try this method:

Public Class MyUtilities
    Shared Sub RunCommandCom(command as String, arguments as String, permanent as Boolean) 
        Dim p as Process = new Process() 
        Dim pi as ProcessStartInfo = new ProcessStartInfo() 
        pi.Arguments = " " + if(permanent = true, "/K" , "/C") + " " + command + " " + arguments 
        pi.FileName = "cmd.exe" 
        p.StartInfo = pi 
        p.Start() 
    End Sub
End Class

call, for example, in this way:

MyUtilities.RunCommandCom("DIR", "/W", true)

EDIT: For the multiple command on one line the key are the & | && and || command connectors

  • A & B → execute command A, then execute command B.
  • A | B → execute command A, and redirect all it's output into the input of command B.
  • A && B → execute command A, evaluate the errorlevel after running Command A, and if the exit code (errorlevel) is 0, only then execute command B.
  • A || B → execute Command A, evaluate the exit code of this command and if it's anything but 0, only then execute command B.

ASP.NET Identity reset password

On your UserManager, first call GeneratePasswordResetTokenAsync. Once the user has verified his identity (for example by receiving the token in an email), pass the token to ResetPasswordAsync.

Cannot connect to Database server (mysql workbench)

The error occur because the mysql server is not starting on your computer. You should start it manually. Do following steps:

  1. Download and install wamp server according to your bit version(32bit or 64bit) in your computer(http://wampserver-64bit.en.softonic.com/) this link allows you to download wamp server for 64bit.

  2. As soon as you install it you can double click and run it..(you can see a icon in the right hand of the taskbar.It may be hidden .so you can click the arrow which show you the hide apps runing).So click the icon and go to Mysql

  3. Then go to Service and there you can find Start/Resume Services click on it..

  4. And now it is done.Open mysql workbench and see.It will work..

Get the first element of each tuple in a list in Python

The functional way of achieving this is to unzip the list using:

sample = [(2, 9), (2, 9), (8, 9), (10, 9), (23, 26), (1, 9), (43, 44)]
first,snd = zip(*sample)
print(first,snd)

(2, 2, 8, 10, 23, 1, 43) (9, 9, 9, 9, 26, 9, 44)

How to convert int to char with leading zeros?

Data type "int" cannot be more than 10 digits, additionally the "Len()" function works on ints, so there's no need to convert the int to a string before calling the len() function.

Lastly, you are not taking into account the case where the size of your int > the total number of digits you want it padded to (@intLen).

Therefore, a more concise / correct solution is:

CREATE FUNCTION rf_f_CIntToChar(@intVal Int, @intLen Int) RETURNS nvarchar(10)
AS
BEGIN
    IF @intlen > 20 SET @intlen = 20
    IF @intlen < LEN(@intVal) RETURN RIGHT(CONVERT(nvarchar(10), @intVal), @intlen)
    RETURN REPLICATE('0', @intLen - LEN(@intVal)) + CONVERT(nvarchar(10), @intVal)
END

Validating a Textbox field for only numeric input.

You may try the TryParse method which allows you to parse a string into an integer and return a boolean result indicating the success or failure of the operation.

int distance;
if (int.TryParse(txtEvDistance.Text, out distance))
{
    // it's a valid integer => you could use the distance variable here
}

How to reliably open a file in the same directory as a Python script

To quote from the Python documentation:

As initialized upon program startup, the first item of this list, path[0], is the directory containing the script that was used to invoke the Python interpreter. If the script directory is not available (e.g. if the interpreter is invoked interactively or if the script is read from standard input), path[0] is the empty string, which directs Python to search modules in the current directory first. Notice that the script directory is inserted before the entries inserted as a result of PYTHONPATH.

sys.path[0] is what you are looking for.

How to trim whitespace from a Bash variable?

From Bash Guide section on globbing

To use an extglob in a parameter expansion

 #Turn on extended globbing  
shopt -s extglob  
 #Trim leading and trailing whitespace from a variable  
x=${x##+([[:space:]])}; x=${x%%+([[:space:]])}  
 #Turn off extended globbing  
shopt -u extglob  

Here's the same functionality wrapped in a function (NOTE: Need to quote input string passed to function):

trim() {
    # Determine if 'extglob' is currently on.
    local extglobWasOff=1
    shopt extglob >/dev/null && extglobWasOff=0 
    (( extglobWasOff )) && shopt -s extglob # Turn 'extglob' on, if currently turned off.
    # Trim leading and trailing whitespace
    local var=$1
    var=${var##+([[:space:]])}
    var=${var%%+([[:space:]])}
    (( extglobWasOff )) && shopt -u extglob # If 'extglob' was off before, turn it back off.
    echo -n "$var"  # Output trimmed string.
}

Usage:

string="   abc def ghi  ";
#need to quote input-string to preserve internal white-space if any
trimmed=$(trim "$string");  
echo "$trimmed";

If we alter the function to execute in a subshell, we don't have to worry about examining the current shell option for extglob, we can just set it without affecting the current shell. This simplifies the function tremendously. I also update the positional parameters "in place" so I don't even need a local variable

trim() {
    shopt -s extglob
    set -- "${1##+([[:space:]])}"
    printf "%s" "${1%%+([[:space:]])}" 
}

so:

$ s=$'\t\n \r\tfoo  '
$ shopt -u extglob
$ shopt extglob
extglob         off
$ printf ">%q<\n" "$s" "$(trim "$s")"
>$'\t\n \r\tfoo  '<
>foo<
$ shopt extglob
extglob         off

Error: Cannot invoke an expression whose type lacks a call signature

Let's break this down:

  1. The error says

    Cannot invoke an expression whose type lacks a call signature.

  2. The code:

The problem is in this line public toggleBody: string; &

it's relation to these lines:

...
return this.toggleBody(true);
...
return this.toggleBody(false);
  1. The result:

Your saying toggleBody is a string but then your treating it like something that has a call signature (i.e. the structure of something that can be called: lambdas, proc, functions, methods, etc. In JS just function tho.). You need to change the declaration to be public toggleBody: (arg: boolean) => boolean;.

Extra Details:

"invoke" means your calling or applying a function.

"an expression" in Javascript is basically something that produces a value, so this.toggleBody() counts as an expression.

"type" is declared on this line public toggleBody: string

"lacks a call signature" this is because your trying to call something this.toggleBody() that doesn't have signature(i.e. the structure of something that can be called: lambdas, proc, functions, methods, etc.) that can be called. You said this.toggleBody is something that acts like a string.

In other words the error is saying

Cannot call an expression (this.toggleBody) because it's type (:string) lacks a call signature (bc it has a string signature.)

UICollectionView Self Sizing Cells with Auto Layout

EDIT 11/19/19: For iOS 13, just use UICollectionViewCompositionalLayout with estimated heights. Don't waste your time dealing with this broken API.

After struggling with this for some time, I noticed that resizing does not work for UITextViews if you don't disable scrolling:

How to generate an openSSL key using a passphrase from the command line?

genrsa has been replaced by genpkey & when run manually in a terminal it will prompt for a password:

openssl genpkey -aes-256-cbc -algorithm RSA -out /etc/ssl/private/key.pem -pkeyopt rsa_keygen_bits:4096

However when run from a script the command will not ask for a password so to avoid the password being viewable as a process use a function in a shell script:

get_passwd() {
    local passwd=
    echo -ne "Enter passwd for private key: ? "; read -s passwd
    openssl genpkey -aes-256-cbc -pass pass:$passwd -algorithm RSA -out $PRIV_KEY -pkeyopt rsa_keygen_bits:$PRIV_KEYSIZE
}

Can I safely delete contents of Xcode Derived data folder?

Yes, you can delete all files from DerivedData sub-folder (Not DerivedData Folder) directly.

That will not affect your project work. Contents of DerivedData folder is generated during the build time and you can delete them if you want. It's not an issue.

The contents of DerivedData will be recreated when you build your projects again.

Xcode8+ Update

From the Xcode8 that removed project option from the window tab so you can still use first way:

Xcode -> Preferences -> location -> click on small arrow button as i explain in my first answer.

Xcode7.3 Update For remove particular project's DeriveData you just need to follow the following steps:

Go to Window -> Project:

enter image description here

You can find the list of project and you can either go the DerivedData Folder or you can direct delete individual Project's DerivedData

enter image description here


I am not working on Xcode5 but in 4.6.3 you can find DerivedData folder as found in the below image:

enter image description here

After clicking on Preferences..

You get this window

Difference between Static methods and Instance methods

Static methods, variables belongs to the whole class, not just an object instance. A static method, variable is associated with the class as a whole rather than with specific instances of a class. Each object will share a common copy of the static methods, variables. There is only one copy per class, no matter how many objects are created from it.

Cast received object to a List<object> or IEnumerable<object>

You can't cast an IEnumerable<T> to a List<T>.

But you can accomplish this using LINQ:

var result = ((IEnumerable)myObject).Cast<object>().ToList();

When to use React setState callback

Consider setState call

this.setState({ counter: this.state.counter + 1 })

IDEA

setState may be called in async function

So you cannot rely on this. If the above call was made inside a async function this will refer to state of component at that point of time but we expected this to refer to property inside state at time setState calling or beginning of async task. And as task was async call thus that property may have changed in time being. Thus it is unreliable to use this keyword to refer to some property of state thus we use callback function whose arguments are previousState and props which means when async task was done and it was time to update state using setState call prevState will refer to state now when setState has not started yet. Ensuring reliability that nextState would not be corrupted.

Wrong Code: would lead to corruption of data

this.setState(
   {counter:this.state.counter+1}
 );

Correct Code with setState having call back function:

 this.setState(
       (prevState,props)=>{
           return {counter:prevState.counter+1};
        }
    );

Thus whenever we need to update our current state to next state based on value possed by property just now and all this is happening in async fashion it is good idea to use setState as callback function.

I have tried to explain it in codepen here CODE PEN

Changing the cursor in WPF sometimes works, sometimes doesn't

If your application uses async stuff and you're fiddling with Mouse's cursor, you probably want to do it only in main UI thread. You can use app's Dispatcher thread for that:

Application.Current.Dispatcher.Invoke(() =>
{
    // The check is required to prevent cursor flickering
    if (Mouse.OverrideCursor != cursor)
        Mouse.OverrideCursor = cursor;
});

MAC addresses in JavaScript

Nope. The reason ActiveX can do it is because ActiveX is a little application that runs on the client's machine.

I would imagine access to such information via JavaScript would be a security vulnerability.

Is there a simple way that I can sort characters in a string in alphabetical order

Yes; copy the string to a char array, sort the char array, then copy that back into a string.

static string SortString(string input)
{
    char[] characters = input.ToArray();
    Array.Sort(characters);
    return new string(characters);
}

pandas three-way joining multiple dataframes on columns

Here is a method to merge a dictionary of data frames while keeping the column names in sync with the dictionary. Also it fills in missing values if needed:

This is the function to merge a dict of data frames

def MergeDfDict(dfDict, onCols, how='outer', naFill=None):
  keys = dfDict.keys()
  for i in range(len(keys)):
    key = keys[i]
    df0 = dfDict[key]
    cols = list(df0.columns)
    valueCols = list(filter(lambda x: x not in (onCols), cols))
    df0 = df0[onCols + valueCols]
    df0.columns = onCols + [(s + '_' + key) for s in valueCols] 

    if (i == 0):
      outDf = df0
    else:
      outDf = pd.merge(outDf, df0, how=how, on=onCols)   

  if (naFill != None):
    outDf = outDf.fillna(naFill)

  return(outDf)

OK, lets generates data and test this:

def GenDf(size):
  df = pd.DataFrame({'categ1':np.random.choice(a=['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e'], size=size, replace=True),
                      'categ2':np.random.choice(a=['A', 'B'], size=size, replace=True), 
                      'col1':np.random.uniform(low=0.0, high=100.0, size=size), 
                      'col2':np.random.uniform(low=0.0, high=100.0, size=size)
                      })
  df = df.sort_values(['categ2', 'categ1', 'col1', 'col2'])
  return(df)


size = 5
dfDict = {'US':GenDf(size), 'IN':GenDf(size), 'GER':GenDf(size)}   
MergeDfDict(dfDict=dfDict, onCols=['categ1', 'categ2'], how='outer', naFill=0)

What does !important mean in CSS?

It is used to influence sorting in the CSS cascade when sorting by origin is done. It has nothing to do with specificity like stated here in other answers.

Here is the priority from lowest to highest:

  1. browser styles
  2. user style sheet declarations (without !important)
  3. author style sheet declarations (without !important)
  4. !important author style sheets
  5. !important user style sheets

After that specificity takes place for the rules still having a finger in the pie.

How to truncate milliseconds off of a .NET DateTime

The following will work for a DateTime that has fractional milliseconds, and also preserves the Kind property (Local, Utc or Undefined).

DateTime dateTime = ... anything ...
dateTime = new DateTime(
    dateTime.Ticks - (dateTime.Ticks % TimeSpan.TicksPerSecond), 
    dateTime.Kind
    );

or the equivalent and shorter:

dateTime = dateTime.AddTicks( - (dateTime.Ticks % TimeSpan.TicksPerSecond));

This could be generalized into an extension method:

public static DateTime Truncate(this DateTime dateTime, TimeSpan timeSpan)
{
    if (timeSpan == TimeSpan.Zero) return dateTime; // Or could throw an ArgumentException
    if (dateTime == DateTime.MinValue || dateTime == DateTime.MaxValue) return dateTime; // do not modify "guard" values
    return dateTime.AddTicks(-(dateTime.Ticks % timeSpan.Ticks));
}

which is used as follows:

dateTime = dateTime.Truncate(TimeSpan.FromMilliseconds(1)); // Truncate to whole ms
dateTime = dateTime.Truncate(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(1)); // Truncate to whole second
dateTime = dateTime.Truncate(TimeSpan.FromMinutes(1)); // Truncate to whole minute
...

if 'my_word' not in keywargs:
    word = 'default_msg'
else:
    word = keywargs['my_word']
return word

call this by:

print(func())
print(func(my_word='love'))

you'll get:

How to send a JSON object over Request with Android?

HttpPost is deprecated by Android Api Level 22. So, Use HttpUrlConnection for further.

public static String makeRequest(String uri, String json) {
    HttpURLConnection urlConnection;
    String url;
    String data = json;
    String result = null;
    try {
        //Connect 
        urlConnection = (HttpURLConnection) ((new URL(uri).openConnection()));
        urlConnection.setDoOutput(true);
        urlConnection.setRequestProperty("Content-Type", "application/json");
        urlConnection.setRequestProperty("Accept", "application/json");
        urlConnection.setRequestMethod("POST");
        urlConnection.connect();

        //Write
        OutputStream outputStream = urlConnection.getOutputStream();
        BufferedWriter writer = new BufferedWriter(new OutputStreamWriter(outputStream, "UTF-8"));
        writer.write(data);
        writer.close();
        outputStream.close();

        //Read
        BufferedReader bufferedReader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(urlConnection.getInputStream(), "UTF-8"));

        String line = null;
        StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();

        while ((line = bufferedReader.readLine()) != null) {
            sb.append(line);
        }

        bufferedReader.close();
        result = sb.toString();

    } catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    } catch (IOException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
    return result;
}

Create a zip file and download it

I have experienced exactly the same problem. In my case, the source of it was the permissions of the folder in which I wanted to create the zip file that were all set to read only. I changed it to read and write and it worked.

How to store array or multiple values in one column

You have a couple of questions here, so I'll address them separately:

I need to store a number of selected items in one field in a database

My general rule is: don't. This is something which all but requires a second table (or third) with a foreign key. Sure, it may seem easier now, but what if the use case comes along where you need to actually query for those items individually? It also means that you have more options for lazy instantiation and you have a more consistent experience across multiple frameworks/languages. Further, you are less likely to have connection timeout issues (30,000 characters is a lot).

You mentioned that you were thinking about using ENUM. Are these values fixed? Do you know them ahead of time? If so this would be my structure:

Base table (what you have now):

| id primary_key sequence
| -- other columns here.

Items table:

| id primary_key sequence
| descript VARCHAR(30) UNIQUE

Map table:

| base_id  bigint
| items_id bigint

Map table would have foreign keys so base_id maps to Base table, and items_id would map to the items table.

And if you'd like an easy way to retrieve this from a DB, then create a view which does the joins. You can even create insert and update rules so that you're practically only dealing with one table.

What format should I use store the data?

If you have to do something like this, why not just use a character delineated string? It will take less processing power than a CSV, XML, or JSON, and it will be shorter.

What column type should I use store the data?

Personally, I would use TEXT. It does not sound like you'd gain much by making this a BLOB, and TEXT, in my experience, is easier to read if you're using some form of IDE.

Jenkins CI Pipeline Scripts not permitted to use method groovy.lang.GroovyObject

I ran into this when I reduced the number of user-input parameters in userInput from 3 to 1. This changed the variable output type of userInput from an array to a primitive.

myvar2 = userInput['param2']

to:

myvar = userInput

Injecting content into specific sections from a partial view ASP.NET MVC 3 with Razor View Engine

The goal of the OP is that he wants to define inline scripts into his Partial View, which I assume that this script is specific only to that Partial View, and have that block included into his script section.

I get that he wants to have that Partial View to be self contained. The idea is similar to components when using Angular.

My way would be to just keep the scripts inside the Partial View as is. Now the problem with that is when calling Partial View, it may execute the script in there before all other scripts (which is typically added to the bottom of the layout page). In that case, you just have the Partial View script wait for the other scripts. There are several ways to do this. The simplest one, which I've used before, is using an event on body.

On my layout, I would have something on the bottom like this:

// global scripts
<script src="js/jquery.min.js"></script>
// view scripts
@RenderSection("scripts", false)
// then finally trigger partial view scripts
<script>
  (function(){
    document.querySelector('body').dispatchEvent(new Event('scriptsLoaded'));
  })();
</script>

Then on my Partial View (at the bottom):

<script>
  (function(){
    document.querySelector('body').addEventListener('scriptsLoaded', function() {

      // .. do your thing here

    });
  })();
</script>

Another solution is using a stack to push all your scripts, and call each one at the end. Other solution, as mentioned already, is RequireJS/AMD pattern, which works really well also.

How to have Java method return generic list of any type?

    List<T> list = new ArrayList<>();       
    for (Object o : objectList){
        T t = c.cast(o);
        list.add(t);
    }
    return list;
}

How to convert php array to utf8?

Instead of using recursion to deal with multi-dimensional arrays, which can be slow, you can do the following:

$res = json_decode(
    json_encode(
        iconv(
            mb_detect_encoding($res, mb_detect_order(), true),
            'UTF-8',
            $res
        )
    ),
    true
);

This will convert any character set to UTF8 and also preserve keys in your array. So instead of "lazy" converting each row using array_walk, you could do the whole result set in one go.

Add a UIView above all, even the navigation bar

There is more than one way to do it:

1- Add your UIView on UIWindow instead of adding it on UIViewController. This way it will be on top of everything.

   [[(AppDelegate *)[UIApplication sharedApplication].delegate window] addSubview:view];

2- Use custom transition that will keep your UIViewController showing in the back with a 0.5 alpha

For that I recommend you look at this: https://github.com/Citrrus/BlurryModalSegue

How do you make strings "XML safe"?

I prefer the way Golang does quote escaping for XML (and a few extras like newline escaping, and escaping some other characters), so I have ported its XML escape function to PHP below

function isInCharacterRange(int $r): bool {
    return $r == 0x09 ||
            $r == 0x0A ||
            $r == 0x0D ||
            $r >= 0x20 && $r <= 0xDF77 ||
            $r >= 0xE000 && $r <= 0xFFFD ||
            $r >= 0x10000 && $r <= 0x10FFFF;
}

function xml(string $s, bool $escapeNewline = true): string {
    $w = '';

    $Last = 0;
    $l = strlen($s);
    $i = 0;

    while ($i < $l) {
        $r = mb_substr(substr($s, $i), 0, 1);
        $Width = strlen($r);
        $i += $Width;
        switch ($r) {
            case '"':
                $esc = '&#34;';
                break;
            case "'":
                $esc = '&#39;';
                break;
            case '&':
                $esc = '&amp;';
                break;
            case '<':
                $esc = '&lt;';
                break;
            case '>':
                $esc = '&gt;';
                break;
            case "\t":
                $esc = '&#x9;';
                break;
            case "\n":
                if (!$escapeNewline) {
                    continue 2;
                }
                $esc = '&#xA;';
                break;
            case "\r":
                $esc = '&#xD;';
                break;
            default:
                if (!isInCharacterRange(mb_ord($r)) || (mb_ord($r) === 0xFFFD && $Width === 1)) {
                    $esc = "\u{FFFD}";
                    break;
                }

                continue 2;
        }
        $w .= substr($s, $Last, $i - $Last - $Width) . $esc;
        $Last = $i;
    }
    $w .= substr($s, $Last);
    return $w;
}

Note you'll need at least PHP7.2 because of the mb_ord usage, or you'll have to swap it out for another polyfill, but these functions are working great for us!

MSVCP140.dll missing

Either make your friends download the runtime DLL (@Kay's answer), or compile the app with static linking.

In visual studio, go to Project tab -> properties - > configuration properties -> C/C++ -> Code Generation on runtime library choose /MTd for debug mode and /MT for release mode.

This will cause the compiler to embed the runtime into the app. The executable will be significantly bigger, but it will run without any need of runtime dlls.

git command to move a folder inside another

you can use this script

# git mv a folder and sub folders in windows 

function Move-GitFolder {
    param (
        $target,
        $destination
    )
    
    Get-ChildItem $target -recurse |
    Where-Object { ! $_.PSIsContainer } |
    ForEach-Object { 
        $fullTargetFolder = [System.IO.Path]::GetFullPath((Join-Path (Get-Location) $target))
        $fullDestinationFolder = [System.IO.Path]::GetFullPath((Join-Path (Get-Location) $destination))
        $fileDestination = $_.Directory.FullName.Replace($fullTargetFolder.TrimEnd('\'), $fullDestinationFolder.TrimEnd('\'))

        New-Item -ItemType Directory -Force -Path $fileDestination | Out-Null

        $filePath = Join-Path $fileDestination $_.Name

        git mv $_.FullName $filePath
        
    }
}

Usage

Move-GitFolder <Target folder> <Destination folder>

the advantage of this solution over other solutions is that it move folders and files recursively in a folder and even create the folder structure if it doesn't exist

If most/all of your traffic has a CSS3 capable browser, the first method is quicker and cleaner to implement (copy/pasted by Mr. Zoidberg in another answer here for convenience, though I'd visit the source for further background on why it works).

An alternative method to CSS is to use the JavaScript library jQuery to detect resolution changes and adjust the image size accordingly. This article covers the jQuery technique and provides a live demo.

Supersized is a dedicated JavaScript library designed for static full screen images as well as full sized slideshows.

A good tip for full-screen images is to scale them with a correct ratio beforehand. I normally aim for a size of 1500x1000 when using supersized.js or 1680x1050 for other methods, setting the jpg quality for photographs to between 60-80% resulting in a file size in the region of 100kb or less if possible without compromising quality too much.

Laravel: How to Get Current Route Name? (v5 ... v7)

In a controller action, you could just do:

public function someAction(Request $request)
{
    $routeName = $request->route()->getName();
}

$request here is resolved by Laravel's service container.

getName() returns the route name for named routes only, null otherwise (but you could still explore the \Illuminate\Routing\Route object for something else of interest).

In other words, you should have your route defined like this to have "nameOfMyRoute" returned:

Route::get('my/some-action', [
    'as' => 'nameOfMyRoute',
    'uses' => 'MyController@someAction'
]);

Resetting Select2 value in dropdown with reset button

version 4.0

$('#d').val('').trigger('change');

This is the correct solution from now on according to deprecated message thrown in debug mode: "The select2("val") method has been deprecated and will be removed in later Select2 versions. Use $element.val() instead"

How to set environment variables from within package.json?

Because I often find myself working with multiple environment variables, I find it useful to keep them in a separate .env file (make sure to ignore this from your source control). Then (in Linux) prepend export $(cat .env | xargs) && in your script command before starting your app.

Example .env file:

VAR_A=Hello World
VAR_B=format the .env file like this with new vars separated by a line break

Example index.js:

console.log('Test', process.env.VAR_A, process.env.VAR_B);

Example package.json:

{
  ...
  "scripts": {
    "start": "node index.js",

    "env-linux": "export $(cat .env | xargs) && env",
    "start-linux": "export $(cat .env | xargs) && npm start",

    "env-windows": "(for /F \"tokens=*\" %i in (.env) do set %i)",
    "start-windows": "(for /F \"tokens=*\" %i in (.env) do set %i) && npm start",

  }
  ...
}

Unfortunately I can't seem to set the environment variables by calling a script from a script -- like "start-windows": "npm run env-windows && npm start" -- so there is some redundancy in the scripts.

For a test you can see the env variables by running npm run env-linux or npm run env-windows, and test that they make it into your app by running npm run start-linux or npm run start-windows.

Reflection: How to Invoke Method with parameters

I would use it like this, its way shorter and it won't give any problems

        dynamic result = null;
        if (methodInfo != null)
        {
            ParameterInfo[] parameters = methodInfo.GetParameters();
            object classInstance = Activator.CreateInstance(type, null);
            result = methodInfo.Invoke(classInstance, parameters.Length == 0 ? null : parametersArray);
        }

Connect to external server by using phpMyAdmin

To set up an external DB and still use your local DB, you need to edit the config.inc.php file:

On Ubuntu: sudo gedit /etc/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php

The file is roughly set up like this:

if (!empty($dbname)) {

    //Your local db setup

     $i++;
}

What you need to do is duplicate the "your local db setup" by copying and pasting it outside of the IF statement I've shown in the code below, and change the host to you external IP. Mine for example is:

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['host'] = '10.10.1.90:23306';

You can leave the defaults (unless you know you need to change them)

Save and refresh your PHPMYADMIN login page and a new dropdown should appear. You should be good to go.


EDIT: if you want to give the server a name to select at login page, rather than having just the IP address to select, add this to the server setup:

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['verbose'] = 'Name to show when selecting your server'; 

It's good if you have multiple server configs.

Is there a way to get rid of accents and convert a whole string to regular letters?

EDIT: If you're not stuck with Java <6 and speed is not critical and/or translation table is too limiting, use answer by David. The point is to use Normalizer (introduced in Java 6) instead of translation table inside the loop.

While this is not "perfect" solution, it works well when you know the range (in our case Latin1,2), worked before Java 6 (not a real issue though) and is much faster than the most suggested version (may or may not be an issue):

    /**
 * Mirror of the unicode table from 00c0 to 017f without diacritics.
 */
private static final String tab00c0 = "AAAAAAACEEEEIIII" +
    "DNOOOOO\u00d7\u00d8UUUUYI\u00df" +
    "aaaaaaaceeeeiiii" +
    "\u00f0nooooo\u00f7\u00f8uuuuy\u00fey" +
    "AaAaAaCcCcCcCcDd" +
    "DdEeEeEeEeEeGgGg" +
    "GgGgHhHhIiIiIiIi" +
    "IiJjJjKkkLlLlLlL" +
    "lLlNnNnNnnNnOoOo" +
    "OoOoRrRrRrSsSsSs" +
    "SsTtTtTtUuUuUuUu" +
    "UuUuWwYyYZzZzZzF";

/**
 * Returns string without diacritics - 7 bit approximation.
 *
 * @param source string to convert
 * @return corresponding string without diacritics
 */
public static String removeDiacritic(String source) {
    char[] vysl = new char[source.length()];
    char one;
    for (int i = 0; i < source.length(); i++) {
        one = source.charAt(i);
        if (one >= '\u00c0' && one <= '\u017f') {
            one = tab00c0.charAt((int) one - '\u00c0');
        }
        vysl[i] = one;
    }
    return new String(vysl);
}

Tests on my HW with 32bit JDK show that this performs conversion from àèélštc89FDC to aeelstc89FDC 1 million times in ~100ms while Normalizer way makes it in 3.7s (37x slower). In case your needs are around performance and you know the input range, this may be for you.

Enjoy :-)

What is the equivalent to a JavaScript setInterval/setTimeout in Android/Java?

The first answer is definitely the correct answer and is what I based this lambda version off of, which is much shorter in syntax. Since Runnable has only 1 override method "run()", we can use a lambda:

this.m_someBoolFlag = false;
new android.os.Handler().postDelayed(() -> this.m_someBoolFlag = true, 300);

How to automatically allow blocked content in IE?

I believe this will only appear when running the page locally in this particular case, i.e. you should not see this when loading the apge from a web server.

However if you have permission to do so, you could turn off the prompt for Internet Explorer by following Tools (menu) → Internet OptionsSecurity (tab) → Custom Level (button) → and Disable Automatic prompting for ActiveX controls.

This will of course, only affect your browser.

Pandas: create two new columns in a dataframe with values calculated from a pre-existing column

I'd just use zip:

   ...: 

In [3]: df = DataFrame({'a': [1,2,3], 'b': [2,3,4]})

In [4]: df
Out[4]: 
   a  b
0  1  2
1  2  3
2  3  4

In [5]: df["A1"], df["A2"] = zip(*df["a"].map(calculate))

In [6]: df
Out[6]: 
   a  b  A1  A2
0  1  2   2   3
1  2  3   4   6

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.eclipse.core.runtime.adaptor.EclipseStarter

This can a time consuming problem. For those who want to get on with their work because they do not want to waste much time, I would like to suggest that you download the zip file and unpack the zip file and use it. The zip file is available for all major OS.

https://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/

Here instead of hitting the Download button, which will download the Eclipse installer, scroll to the middle area where a list of the various Eclipse IDEs with their respective features are shown. Select the Eclipse IDE of your like and click on the link on the right-hand-side to download the zip or corresponding file for your OS version.

If you still want to use your other Eclipse installations because, for example, you have plugins installed, then download the Eclipse installer and on the right-hand top corner press the icon with 3 minus. After that press Update, then after restart, install the version of Eclipse IDE, which you want (the one that you want to reactivate) in a different folder. The installation will take some time. After the installation is finished you should be able to start your old Eclipse IDE.

Write to rails console

In addition to already suggested p and puts — well, actually in most cases you do can write logger.info "blah" just as you suggested yourself. It works in console too, not only in server mode.

But if all you want is console debugging, puts and p are much shorter to write, anyway.

Failed: Error in connection establishment: net::ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED

CONNECTION_REFUSED is standard when the port is closed, but it could be rejected because SSL is failing authentication (one of a billion reasons). Did you configure SSL with Ratchet? (Apache is bypassed) Did you try without SSL in JavaScript?

I don't think Ratchet has built-in support for SSL. But even if it does you'll want to try the ws:// protocol first; it's a lot simpler, easier to debug, and closer to telnet. Chrome or the socket service may also be generating the REFUSED error if the service doesn't support SSL (because you explicitly requested SSL).

However the refused message is likely a server side problem, (usually port closed).

rails + MySQL on OSX: Library not loaded: libmysqlclient.18.dylib

I was working with the rails g model command and I got this error:

Library not loaded: libmysqlclient.18.dylib

I have tried this and it functioned for me. I was using Mavericks 10.9.5

sudo ln -s /usr/local/mysql-5.6.19-osx10.7-x86_64/lib/libmysqlclient.18.dylib /usr/lib/libmysqlclient.18.dylib

Thanks!

Now I'm using Yosemite 10.10.5 and I got the same error, so I just ran this command on the terminal an it was successfully fixed up.

$ sudo ln -s /usr/local/mysql-5.6.26-osx10.8-x86_64/lib/libmysqlclient.18.dylib /usr/lib/libmysqlclient.18.dylib

also you can try:

sudo ln -s /usr/local/mysql/lib/libmysqlclient.18.dylib /usr/lib/libmysqlclient.18.dylib

Both of them work fine for me. Hope it could be useful!

How to inject JPA EntityManager using spring

Is it possible to have spring to inject the JPA entityManager object into my DAO class whitout extending JpaDaoSupport? if yes, does spring manage the transaction in this case?

This is documented black on white in 12.6.3. Implementing DAOs based on plain JPA:

It is possible to write code against the plain JPA without using any Spring dependencies, using an injected EntityManagerFactory or EntityManager. Note that Spring can understand @PersistenceUnit and @PersistenceContext annotations both at field and method level if a PersistenceAnnotationBeanPostProcessor is enabled. A corresponding DAO implementation might look like this (...)

And regarding transaction management, have a look at 12.7. Transaction Management:

Spring JPA allows a configured JpaTransactionManager to expose a JPA transaction to JDBC access code that accesses the same JDBC DataSource, provided that the registered JpaDialect supports retrieval of the underlying JDBC Connection. Out of the box, Spring provides dialects for the Toplink, Hibernate and OpenJPA JPA implementations. See the next section for details on the JpaDialect mechanism.

Skip first entry in for loop in python?

The more_itertools project extends itertools.islice to handle negative indices.

Example

import more_itertools as mit

iterable = 'ABCDEFGH'
list(mit.islice_extended(iterable, 1, -1))
# Out: ['B', 'C', 'D', 'E', 'F', 'G']

Therefore, you can elegantly apply it slice elements between the first and last items of an iterable:

for car in mit.islice_extended(cars, 1, -1):
    # do something

  }
  if(node.className == 'someclass'){
    //do something

React.js: onChange event for contentEditable

Edit 2015

Someone has made a project on NPM with my solution: https://github.com/lovasoa/react-contenteditable

Edit 06/2016: I've just encoutered a new problem that occurs when the browser tries to "reformat" the html you just gave him, leading to component always re-rendering. See

Edit 07/2016: here's my production contentEditable implementation. It has some additional options over react-contenteditable that you might want, including:

  • locking
  • imperative API allowing to embed html fragments
  • ability to reformat the content

Summary:

FakeRainBrigand's solution has worked quite fine for me for some time until I got new problems. ContentEditables are a pain, and are not really easy to deal with React...

This JSFiddle demonstrates the problem.

As you can see, when you type some characters and click on Clear, the content is not cleared. This is because we try to reset the contenteditable to the last known virtual dom value.

So it seems that:

  • You need shouldComponentUpdate to prevent caret position jumps
  • You can't rely on React's VDOM diffing algorithm if you use shouldComponentUpdate this way.

So you need an extra line so that whenever shouldComponentUpdate returns yes, you are sure the DOM content is actually updated.

So the version here adds a componentDidUpdate and becomes:

var ContentEditable = React.createClass({
    render: function(){
        return <div id="contenteditable"
            onInput={this.emitChange} 
            onBlur={this.emitChange}
            contentEditable
            dangerouslySetInnerHTML={{__html: this.props.html}}></div>;
    },

    shouldComponentUpdate: function(nextProps){
        return nextProps.html !== this.getDOMNode().innerHTML;
    },

    componentDidUpdate: function() {
        if ( this.props.html !== this.getDOMNode().innerHTML ) {
           this.getDOMNode().innerHTML = this.props.html;
        }
    },

    emitChange: function(){
        var html = this.getDOMNode().innerHTML;
        if (this.props.onChange && html !== this.lastHtml) {
            this.props.onChange({
                target: {
                    value: html
                }
            });
        }
        this.lastHtml = html;
    }
});

The Virtual dom stays outdated, and it may not be the most efficient code, but at least it does work :) My bug is resolved


Details:

1) If you put shouldComponentUpdate to avoid caret jumps, then the contenteditable never rerenders (at least on keystrokes)

2) If the component never rerenders on key stroke, then React keeps an outdated virtual dom for this contenteditable.

3) If React keeps an outdated version of the contenteditable in its virtual dom tree, then if you try to reset the contenteditable to the value outdated in the virtual dom, then during the virtual dom diff, React will compute that there are no changes to apply to the DOM!

This happens mostly when:

  • you have an empty contenteditable initially (shouldComponentUpdate=true,prop="",previous vdom=N/A),
  • the user types some text and you prevent renderings (shouldComponentUpdate=false,prop=text,previous vdom="")
  • after user clicks a validation button, you want to empty that field (shouldComponentUpdate=false,prop="",previous vdom="")
  • as both the newly produced and old vdom are "", React does not touch the dom.

Creating an empty bitmap and drawing though canvas in Android

This is probably simpler than you're thinking:

int w = WIDTH_PX, h = HEIGHT_PX;

Bitmap.Config conf = Bitmap.Config.ARGB_8888; // see other conf types
Bitmap bmp = Bitmap.createBitmap(w, h, conf); // this creates a MUTABLE bitmap
Canvas canvas = new Canvas(bmp);

// ready to draw on that bitmap through that canvas

Here's a series of tutorials I've found on the topic: Drawing with Canvas Series

How to run C program on Mac OS X using Terminal?

First save your program as program.c.

Now you need the compiler, so you need to go to App Store and install Xcode which is Apple's compiler and development tools. How to find App Store? Do a "Spotlight Search" by typing Space and start typing App Store and hit Enter when it guesses correctly.

App Store looks like this:

enter image description here

Xcode looks like this on App Store:

enter image description here

Then you need to install the command-line tools in Terminal. How to start Terminal? You need to do another "Spotlight Search", which means you type Space and start typing Terminal and hit Enter when it guesses Terminal.

Now install the command-line tools like this:

xcode-select --install

Then you can compile your code with by simply running gcc as in the next line without having to fire up the big, ugly software development GUI called Xcode:

gcc -Wall -o program program.c

Note: On newer versions of OS X, you would use clang instead of gcc, like this:

clang program.c -o program

Then you can run it with:

./program
Hello, world!

If your program is C++, you'll probably want to use one of these commands:

clang++ -o program program.cpp
g++ -std=c++11 -o program program.cpp
g++-7 -std=c++11 -o program program.cpp

CSS technique for a horizontal line with words in the middle

If you are using React with Styled Components. I found that is more easy to just separate elements. Is not the "amazing solution" but it works.

import React from 'react';
import styled from "@emotion/styled";

const Container = styled.div`
  padding-top: 210px;
  padding-left: 50px;  
  display: inline-flex;
`

const Title1 = styled.div`
  position: absolute;
  font-size: 25px;
  left:40px;
  color: white;
  margin-top: -17px;
  padding-left: 40px;
`

const Title2 = styled.div`
  position: absolute;
  font-size: 25px;
  left:1090px;
  color: white;
  margin-top: -17px;
  padding-left: 40px;
`

const Line1 = styled.div`
  width: 20px;
  border: solid darkgray 1px;
  margin-right: 90px;
`
const Line2 = styled.div`
  width: 810px;
  border: solid darkgray 1px;
  margin-right: 126px;
`
const Line3 = styled.div`
  width: 178px;
  border: solid darkgray 1px;
`


const Titulos = () => {
    return (
        <Container>
            <Line1/>
            <Title1>
                FEATURED

            </Title2>
            <Line3/>
        </Container>
    );
};

export default Titulos;

Maven Install on Mac OS X

Disclaimer: Here is a complete answer taking the last version of OS X (10.9 AKA Mavericks) into account. I am aware that everything I compiled in this answer is already present in the page, but having it clearly in one answer makes it a lot clearer.

First of all, with previous versions of OS X, Maven is installed by default. If Java is missing running you@host:~ $ java in a terminal will prompt you for the Java installation.

With Mac OS X 10.9 (Mavericks), Maven is not installed by default anymore. Different options are then possible:

  • Using Homebrew:
    • you@host:~$ brew install maven will install latest Maven (3.5.2 on 02/01/2018)
    • you@host:~$ brew install maven30 will install Maven 3.0 if needed
  • Using Macports: (I did not test this)
    • you@host:~$ sudo port install maven will install latest Maven (?)
    • or:
    • you@host:~$ sudo port install maven3 will Install Maven 3.0
    • you@host:~$ sudo port select --set maven maven3 selects that version of Maven
  • Installing by hand:
    • Download Maven from its homepage
    • Follow the installation instructions:
      1. Extract the distribution archive, i.e.apache-maven-3.3.9-bin.tar.gz to the directory you wish to install Maven 3.3.9. The subdirectory apache-maven-3.3.9 will be created from the archive.
      2. Optional: Add the MAVEN_OPTS environment variable to specify JVM properties, e.g. export MAVEN_OPTS="-Xms256m -Xmx512m". This environment variable can be used to supply extra options to Maven.
      3. Make sure that JAVA_HOME is set to the location of your JDK, e.g. export JAVA_HOME=$(/usr/libexec/java_home -v 1.8) and that $JAVA_HOME/bin is in your PATH environment variable (although that might not be necessary with the latest Mac OS X versions and the Oracle JDK).
      4. Add extracted apache-maven-3.3.9/bin to your $PATH
      5. Run mvn --version to verify that it is correctly installed.

How to bind to a PasswordBox in MVVM

You find a solution for the PasswordBox in the ViewModel sample application of the WPF Application Framework (WAF) project.

However, Justin is right. Don't pass the password as plain text between View and ViewModel. Use SecureString instead (See MSDN PasswordBox).

How to split a string after specific character in SQL Server and update this value to specific column

SELECT SUBSTRING(ParentBGBU,0,CHARINDEX('-',ParentBGBU,0)) FROM dbo.tblHCMMaster;

What is the difference between atomic / volatile / synchronized?

Synchronized Vs Atomic Vs Volatile:

  • Volatile and Atomic is apply only on variable , While Synchronized apply on method.
  • Volatile ensure about visibility not atomicity/consistency of object , While other both ensure about visibility and atomicity.
  • Volatile variable store in RAM and it’s faster in access but we can’t achive Thread safety or synchronization whitout synchronized keyword.
  • Synchronized implemented as synchronized block or synchronized method while both not. We can thread safe multiple line of code with help of synchronized keyword while with both we can’t achieve the same.
  • Synchronized can lock the same class object or different class object while both can’t.

Please correct me if anything i missed.

How to prevent a jQuery Ajax request from caching in Internet Explorer?

You can disable caching globally using $.ajaxSetup(), for example:

$.ajaxSetup({ cache: false });

This appends a timestamp to the querystring when making the request. To turn cache off for a particular $.ajax() call, set cache: false on it locally, like this:

$.ajax({
  cache: false,
  //other options...
});

How to export query result to csv in Oracle SQL Developer?

CSV Export does not escape your data. Watch out for strings which end in \ because the resulting \" will look like an escaped " and not a \. Then you have the wrong number of " and your entire row is broken.

What does upstream mean in nginx?

upstream defines a cluster that you can proxy requests to. It's commonly used for defining either a web server cluster for load balancing, or an app server cluster for routing / load balancing.

Converting integer to digit list

Convert the integer to string first, and then use map to apply int on it:

>>> num = 132
>>> map(int, str(num))    #note, This will return a map object in python 3.
[1, 3, 2]

or using a list comprehension:

>>> [int(x) for x in str(num)]
[1, 3, 2]

Google.com and clients1.google.com/generate_204

Many applications access this URL to determine if they have a connection that only leads to a captive portal.

The idea is that any captive portal thinks this is a "normal" website, and then redirects you to its portal site, which is returned with a status 200. If an application tries to access any normal website, it is confronted with a totally unexpected response and may have problems figuring out what's wrong. However, with this URL it's easy: If you get status 200, you are inside a captive portal, and you can tell your user to do something about it (usually either log in to the portal using a browser, or turn WiFi off and rely on 3G, if they are using a phone). If you get status 204, you got connected to Google, so your application is actually connected to the internet.

Microsoft and Apple use a slightly different approach; they both have some URLs that return a very specific short text message with a status 200, so instead of accessing the Google url you can for example go to "captive.apple.com" and check for status 200 with data = "Success" and nothing else. If you get status 200 and not exactly that data then you are again in a captive portal.

Limit the size of a file upload (html input element)

This is completely possible. Use Javascript.

I use jQuery to select the input element. I have it set up with an on change event.

$("#aFile_upload").on("change", function (e) {

    var count=1;
    var files = e.currentTarget.files; // puts all files into an array

    // call them as such; files[0].size will get you the file size of the 0th file
    for (var x in files) {

        var filesize = ((files[x].size/1024)/1024).toFixed(4); // MB

        if (files[x].name != "item" && typeof files[x].name != "undefined" && filesize <= 10) { 

            if (count > 1) {

                approvedHTML += ", "+files[x].name;
            }
            else {

                approvedHTML += files[x].name;
            }

            count++;
        }
    }
    $("#approvedFiles").val(approvedHTML);

});

The code above saves all the file names that I deem worthy of persisting to the submission page, before the submit actually happens. I add the "approved" files to an input element's val using jQuery so a form submit will send the names of the files I want to save. All the files will be submitted, however, now on the server side we do have to filter these out. I haven't written any code for that yet, but use your imagination. I assume one can accomplish this by a for loop and matching the names sent over from the input field and match them to the $_FILES(PHP Superglobal, sorry I dont know ruby file variable) variable.

My point is you can do checks for files before submission. I do this and then output it to the user before he/she submits the form, to let them know what they are uploading to my site. Anything that doesn't meet the criteria does not get displayed back to the user and therefore they should know, that the files that are too large wont be saved. This should work on all browsers because I'm not using FormData object.

How to capture a JFrame's close button click event?

    frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);

Unable to copy ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub

Based on the date of this question the original poster wouldn't have been using Windows Subsystem for Linux. But if you are, and you get the same error, the following alternative works:

Thanks to this page for pointing out Windows' clip.exe (and you have to type the ".exe") can be run from the bash shell.

Compiling a java program into an executable

There is a small handful of programs that do that... TowerJ is one that comes to mind (I'll let you Google for it) but it costs significant money.

The most useful reference for this topic I found is at: http://mindprod.com/jgloss/nativecompiler.html

it mentions a few other products, and alternatives to achieve the same purpose.

Bin size in Matplotlib (Histogram)

I use quantiles to do bins uniform and fitted to sample:

bins=df['Generosity'].quantile([0,.05,0.1,0.15,0.20,0.25,0.3,0.35,0.40,0.45,0.5,0.55,0.6,0.65,0.70,0.75,0.80,0.85,0.90,0.95,1]).to_list()

Should I declare Jackson's ObjectMapper as a static field?

com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.type.TypeFactory._hashMapSuperInterfaceChain(HierarchicType)

com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.type.TypeFactory._findSuperInterfaceChain(Type, Class)
  com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.type.TypeFactory._findSuperTypeChain(Class, Class)
     com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.type.TypeFactory.findTypeParameters(Class, Class, TypeBindings)
        com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.type.TypeFactory.findTypeParameters(JavaType, Class)
           com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.type.TypeFactory._fromParamType(ParameterizedType, TypeBindings)
              com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.type.TypeFactory._constructType(Type, TypeBindings)
                 com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.type.TypeFactory.constructType(TypeReference)
                    com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ObjectMapper.convertValue(Object, TypeReference)

The method _hashMapSuperInterfaceChain in class com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.type.TypeFactory is synchronized. Am seeing contention on the same at high loads.

May be another reason to avoid a static ObjectMapper

Set Value of Input Using Javascript Function

document.getElementById('gadget_url').value = '';

Call method in directive controller from other controller

You can also use events to trigger the Popdown.

Here's a fiddle based on satchmorun's solution. It dispenses with the PopdownAPI, and the top-level controller instead $broadcasts 'success' and 'error' events down the scope chain:

$scope.success = function(msg) { $scope.$broadcast('success', msg); };
$scope.error   = function(msg) { $scope.$broadcast('error', msg); };

The Popdown module then registers handler functions for these events, e.g:

$scope.$on('success', function(event, msg) {
    $scope.status = 'success';
    $scope.message = msg;
    $scope.toggleDisplay();
});

This works, at least, and seems to me to be a nicely decoupled solution. I'll let others chime in if this is considered poor practice for some reason.

numpy array TypeError: only integer scalar arrays can be converted to a scalar index

this problem arises when we use vectors in place of scalars for example in a for loop the range should be a scalar, in case you have given a vector in that place you get error. So to avoid the problem use the length of the vector you have used

Execute a PHP script from another PHP script

you can use the backtick notation:

`php file.php`;

You can also put this at the top of the php file to indicate the interpreter:

#!/usr/bin/php

Change it to where you put php. Then give execute permission on the file and you can call the file without specifying php:

`./file.php`

If you want to capture the output of the script:

$output = `./file.php`;
echo $output;

jquery, domain, get URL

You don't need jQuery for this, as simple javascript will suffice:

alert(document.domain);

See it in action:

_x000D_
_x000D_
console.log("Output;");  _x000D_
console.log(location.hostname);_x000D_
console.log(document.domain);_x000D_
alert(window.location.hostname)_x000D_
_x000D_
console.log("document.URL : "+document.URL);_x000D_
console.log("document.location.href : "+document.location.href);_x000D_
console.log("document.location.origin : "+document.location.origin);_x000D_
console.log("document.location.hostname : "+document.location.hostname);_x000D_
console.log("document.location.host : "+document.location.host);_x000D_
console.log("document.location.pathname : "+document.location.pathname);
_x000D_
_x000D_
_x000D_

For further domain-related values, check out the properties of window.location online. You may find that location.host is a better option, as its content could differ from document.domain. For instance, the url http://192.168.1.80:8080 will have only the ipaddress in document.domain, but both the ipaddress and port number in location.host.

Reset Windows Activation/Remove license key

  1. Open a command prompt as an Administrator.

  2. Enter slmgr /upk and wait for this to complete. This will uninstall the current product key from Windows and put it into an unlicensed state.

  3. Enter slmgr /cpky and wait for this to complete. This will remove the product key from the registry if it's still there.

  4. Enter slmgr /rearm and wait for this to complete. This is to reset the Windows activation timers so the new users will be prompted to activate Windows when they put in the key.

This should put the system back to a pre-key state.

Hope this helps you out!

How to take the nth digit of a number in python

I would recommend adding a boolean check for the magnitude of the number. I'm converting a high milliseconds value to datetime. I have numbers from 2 to 200,000,200 so 0 is a valid output. The function as @Chris Mueller has it will return 0 even if number is smaller than 10**n.

def get_digit(number, n):
    return number // 10**n % 10

get_digit(4231, 5)
# 0

def get_digit(number, n):
    if number - 10**n < 0:
        return False
    return number // 10**n % 10

get_digit(4321, 5)
# False

You do have to be careful when checking the boolean state of this return value. To allow 0 as a valid return value, you cannot just use if get_digit:. You have to use if get_digit is False: to keep 0 from behaving as a false value.

MySQL/Writing file error (Errcode 28)

You can also try using this line if the other doesn't work:

How to print a dictionary's key?

In Python 3:

# A simple dictionary
x = {'X':"yes", 'Y':"no", 'Z':"ok"}

# To print a specific key (for example key at index 1)
print([key for key in x.keys()][1])

# To print a specific value (for example value at index 1)
print([value for value in x.values()][1])

# To print a pair of a key with its value (for example pair at index 2)
print(([key for key in x.keys()][2], [value for value in x.values()][2]))

# To print a key and a different value (for example key at index 0 and value at index 1)
print(([key for key in x.keys()][0], [value for value in x.values()][1]))

# To print all keys and values concatenated together
print(''.join(str(key) + '' + str(value) for key, value in x.items()))

# To print all keys and values separated by commas
print(', '.join(str(key) + ', ' + str(value) for key, value in x.items()))

# To print all pairs of (key, value) one at a time
for e in range(len(x)):
    print(([key for key in x.keys()][e], [value for value in x.values()][e]))

# To print all pairs (key, value) in a tuple
print(tuple(([key for key in x.keys()][i], [value for value in x.values()][i]) for i in range(len(x))))

Ruby: How to convert a string to boolean

In rails, I've previously done something like this:

class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
  # ...

  private def bool_from(value)
    !!ActiveRecord::Type::Boolean.new.type_cast_from_database(value)
  end
  helper_method :bool_from

  # ...
end

Which is nice if you're trying to match your boolean strings comparisons in the same manner as rails would for your database.

Why do I need to do `--set-upstream` all the time?

You can simply

git checkout -b my-branch origin/whatever

in the first place. If you set branch.autosetupmerge or branch.autosetuprebase (my favorite) to always (default is true), my-branch will automatically track origin/whatever.

See git help config.

Is this a good way to clone an object in ES6?

if you don't want to use json.parse(json.stringify(object)) you could create recursively key-value copies:

function copy(item){
  let result = null;
  if(!item) return result;
  if(Array.isArray(item)){
    result = [];
    item.forEach(element=>{
      result.push(copy(element));
    });
  }
  else if(item instanceof Object && !(item instanceof Function)){ 
    result = {};
    for(let key in item){
      if(key){
        result[key] = copy(item[key]);
      }
    }
  }
  return result || item;
}

But the best way is to create a class that can return a clone of it self

class MyClass{
    data = null;
    constructor(values){ this.data = values }
    toString(){ console.log("MyClass: "+this.data.toString(;) }
    remove(id){ this.data = data.filter(d=>d.id!==id) }
    clone(){ return new MyClass(this.data) }
}

How to solve java.lang.OutOfMemoryError trouble in Android

I see only two options:

  1. You have memory leaks in your application.
  2. Devices do not have enough memory when running your application.

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'sklearn'

I had the same issue as the author, and ran into the issue with and without Anaconda and regardless of Python version. Everyone's environment is different, but after resolving it for myself I think that in some cases it may be due to having multiple version of Python installed. Each installed Python version has its own \Lib\site-packages\ folder which can contain a unique set of modules for that Python version, and where the IDE looks into folder path that doesn't have scikit-learn in it.

One way to try solve the issue: you might clear your system of all other Python versions and their cached/temp files/system variables, and then only have one version of Python installed anywhere. Then install the dependencies Numpy and Scipy, and finally Scikit-learn.

More detailed steps:

  1. Uninstall all Python versions and their launchers (e.g. from Control Panel in Windows) except the one version you want to keep. Delete any old Python version folders in the Python directory --uninstalling doesn't remove all files.
  2. Remove other Python versions from your OS' Environment Variables (both under the system and user variables sections)
  3. Clear temporary files. For example, for Windows, delete all AppData Temp cache files (in C:\Users\YourUserName\AppData\Local\Temp). In addition, you could also do a Windows disk cleanup for other temporary files, and then reboot.
  4. If your IDE supports it, create a new virtual environment in Settings, then set your only installed Python version as the interpreter.
  5. In your IDE, install the dependencies Scipy and Numpy from the module list first, then install Scikit-Learn.

As some others have suggested, the key is making sure your environment is set up correctly where everything points to the correct library folder on your computer where the Sklearn package is located. There are a few ways this can be resolved. My approach was more drastic, but it turns out that I had a very messy Python setup on my system so I had to start fresh.

Current time in microseconds in java

As other posters already indicated; your system clock is probably not synchronized up to microseconds to actual world time. Nonetheless are microsecond precision timestamps useful as a hybrid for both indicating current wall time, and measuring/profiling the duration of things.

I label all events/messages written to a log files using timestamps like "2012-10-21 19:13:45.267128". These convey both when it happened ("wall" time), and can also be used to measure the duration between this and the next event in the log file (relative difference in microseconds).

To achieve this, you need to link System.currentTimeMillis() with System.nanoTime() and work exclusively with System.nanoTime() from that moment forward. Example code:

/**
 * Class to generate timestamps with microsecond precision
 * For example: MicroTimestamp.INSTANCE.get() = "2012-10-21 19:13:45.267128"
 */ 
public enum MicroTimestamp 
{  INSTANCE ;

   private long              startDate ;
   private long              startNanoseconds ;
   private SimpleDateFormat  dateFormat ;

   private MicroTimestamp()
   {  this.startDate = System.currentTimeMillis() ;
      this.startNanoseconds = System.nanoTime() ;
      this.dateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.SSS") ;
   }

   public String get()
   {  long microSeconds = (System.nanoTime() - this.startNanoseconds) / 1000 ;
      long date = this.startDate + (microSeconds/1000) ;
      return this.dateFormat.format(date) + String.format("%03d", microSeconds % 1000) ;
   }
}

In c++ what does a tilde "~" before a function name signify?

As others have noted, in the instance you are asking about it is the destructor for class Stack.

But taking your question exactly as it appears in the title:

In c++ what does a tilde “~” before a function name signify?

there is another situation. In any context except immediately before the name of a class (which is the destructor context), ~ is the one's complement (or bitwise not) operator. To be sure it does not come up very often, but you can imagine a case like

if (~getMask()) { ...

which looks similar, but has a very different meaning.

Remote branch is not showing up in "git branch -r"

Unfortunately, git branch -a and git branch -r do not show you all remote branches, if you haven't executed a "git fetch".

git remote show origin works consistently all the time. Also git show-ref shows all references in the Git repository. However, it works just like the git branch command.

Convert HH:MM:SS string to seconds only in javascript

new Date(moment('23:04:33', "HH:mm")).getTime()

Output: 1499755980000 (in millisecond) ( 1499755980000/1000) (in second)

Note : this output calculate diff from 1970-01-01 12:0:0 to now and we need to implement the moment.js

Set markers for individual points on a line in Matplotlib

For future reference - the Line2D artist returned by plot() also has a set_markevery() method which allows you to only set markers on certain points - see https://matplotlib.org/api/_as_gen/matplotlib.lines.Line2D.html#matplotlib.lines.Line2D.set_markevery

"git rm --cached x" vs "git reset head --? x"?

git rm --cached file will remove the file from the stage. That is, when you commit the file will be removed. git reset HEAD -- file will simply reset file in the staging area to the state where it was on the HEAD commit, i.e. will undo any changes you did to it since last commiting. If that change happens to be newly adding the file, then they will be equivalent.

Send array with Ajax to PHP script

Encode your data string into JSON.

dataString = ??? ; // array?
var jsonString = JSON.stringify(dataString);
   $.ajax({
        type: "POST",
        url: "script.php",
        data: {data : jsonString}, 
        cache: false,

        success: function(){
            alert("OK");
        }
    });

In your PHP

$data = json_decode(stripslashes($_POST['data']));

  // here i would like use foreach:

  foreach($data as $d){
     echo $d;
  }

Note

When you send data via POST, it needs to be as a keyvalue pair.

Thus

data: dataString

is wrong. Instead do:

data: {data:dataString}

Renaming files in a folder to sequential numbers

To work in all situations, put a \" for files that have space in the name

find . -name '*.jpg' | gawk 'BEGIN{ a=1 }{ printf "mv \"%s\" %04d.jpg\n", $0, a++ }' | bash

Tomcat 8 Maven Plugin for Java 8

groupId and Mojo name change Since version 2.0-beta-1 tomcat mojos has been renamed to tomcat6 and tomcat7 with the same goals.

You must configure your pom to use this new groupId:

<pluginManagement>
  <plugins>
    <plugin>
      <groupId>org.apache.tomcat.maven</groupId>
      <artifactId>tomcat6-maven-plugin</artifactId>
      <version>2.3-SNAPSHOT</version>
    </plugin>
    <plugin>
      <groupId>org.apache.tomcat.maven</groupId>
      <artifactId>tomcat7-maven-plugin</artifactId>
      <version>2.3-SNAPSHOT</version>
    </plugin>
  </plugins>
</pluginManagement>

Or add the groupId in your settings.xml

.... org.apache.tomcat.maven ....

Sort Java Collection

With Java 8 you have several options, combining method references and the built-in comparing comparator:

import static java.util.Comparator.comparing;

Collection<CustomObject> list = new ArrayList<CustomObject>();

Collections.sort(list, comparing(CustomObject::getId));
//or
list.sort(comparing(CustomObject::getId));

add allow_url_fopen to my php.ini using .htaccess

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

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

php_value allow_url_fopen On

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

As an alternative to using url_fopen, try using curl.

How to negate specific word in regex?

I had a list of file names, and I wanted to exclude certain ones, with this sort of behavior (Ruby):

files = [
  'mydir/states.rb',      # don't match these
  'countries.rb',
  'mydir/states_bkp.rb',  # match these
  'mydir/city_states.rb' 
]
excluded = ['states', 'countries']

# set my_rgx here

result = WankyAPI.filter(files, my_rgx)  # I didn't write WankyAPI...
assert result == ['mydir/city_states.rb', 'mydir/states_bkp.rb']

Here's my solution:

excluded_rgx = excluded.map{|e| e+'\.'}.join('|')
my_rgx = /(^|\/)((?!#{excluded_rgx})[^\.\/]*)\.rb$/

My assumptions for this application:

  • The string to be excluded is at the beginning of the input, or immediately following a slash.
  • The permitted strings end with .rb.
  • Permitted filenames don't have a . character before the .rb.

How to insert text with single quotation sql server 2005

This worked for me:

  INSERT INTO [TABLE]
  VALUES ('text','''test.com''', 1)

Basically, you take the single quote you want to insert and replace it with two. So if you want to insert a string of text ('text') and add single quotes around it, it would be ('''text'''). Hope this helps.

Setting a JPA timestamp column to be generated by the database?

I realize this is a bit late, but I've had success with annotating a timestamp column with

@Column(name="timestamp", columnDefinition="TIMESTAMP DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP")

This should also work with CURRENT_DATE and CURRENT_TIME. I'm using JPA/Hibernate with Oracle, so YMMV.

How to run docker-compose up -d at system start up?

When we use crontab or the deprecated /etc/rc.local file, we need a delay (e.g. sleep 10, depending on the machine) to make sure that system services are available. Usually, systemd (or upstart) is used to manage which services start when the system boots. You can try use the similar configuration for this:

# /etc/systemd/system/docker-compose-app.service

[Unit]
Description=Docker Compose Application Service
Requires=docker.service
After=docker.service

[Service]
Type=oneshot
RemainAfterExit=yes
WorkingDirectory=/srv/docker
ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/docker-compose up -d
ExecStop=/usr/local/bin/docker-compose down
TimeoutStartSec=0

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

Or, if you want run without the -d flag:

# /etc/systemd/system/docker-compose-app.service

[Unit]
Description=Docker Compose Application Service
Requires=docker.service
After=docker.service

[Service]
WorkingDirectory=/srv/docker
ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/docker-compose up
ExecStop=/usr/local/bin/docker-compose down
TimeoutStartSec=0
Restart=on-failure
StartLimitIntervalSec=60
StartLimitBurst=3

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

Change the WorkingDirectory parameter with your dockerized project path. And enable the service to start automatically:

systemctl enable docker-compose-app

Count the number occurrences of a character in a string

No more than this IMHO - you can add the upper or lower methods

def count_letter_in_str(string,letter):
    return string.count(letter)

PHP not displaying errors even though display_errors = On

I had the same issue and finally solved it. My mistake was that I tried to change /etc/php5/cli/php.ini, but then I found another php.ini here: /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini, changed display_errors = On, restarted the web-server and it worked!

May be it would be helpful for someone absent-minded like me.

        Intent mediaScanIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_MEDIA_SCANNER_SCAN_FILE);
        Uri contentUri = Uri.fromFile(photoFile);
        mediaScanIntent.setData(contentUri);

Prevent scroll-bar from adding-up to the Width of page on Chrome

I had the same issue on Chrome. It only happened for me when the scroll bar is always visible. (found in the general settings) I have a modal and when I open the modal I noticed that...

body {
    padding-left: 15px;
}

is added to the body. To stop this from happening I added

body {
    padding-left: 0px !important;
}

PHP: How to send HTTP response code?

Unfortunately I found solutions presented by @dualed have various flaws.

  1. Using substr($sapi_type, 0, 3) == 'cgi' is not enogh to detect fast CGI. When using PHP-FPM FastCGI Process Manager, php_sapi_name() returns fpm not cgi

  2. Fasctcgi and php-fpm expose another bug mentioned by @Josh - using header('X-PHP-Response-Code: 404', true, 404); does work properly under PHP-FPM (FastCGI)

  3. header("HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found"); may fail when the protocol is not HTTP/1.1 (i.e. 'HTTP/1.0'). Current protocol must be detected using $_SERVER['SERVER_PROTOCOL'] (available since PHP 4.1.0

  4. There are at least 2 cases when calling http_response_code() result in unexpected behaviour:

    • When PHP encounter an HTTP response code it does not understand, PHP will replace the code with one it knows from the same group. For example "521 Web server is down" is replaced by "500 Internal Server Error". Many other uncommon response codes from other groups 2xx, 3xx, 4xx are handled this way.
    • On a server with php-fpm and nginx http_response_code() function MAY change the code as expected but not the message. This may result in a strange "404 OK" header for example. This problem is also mentioned on PHP website by a user comment http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.http-response-code.php#112423

For your reference here there is the full list of HTTP response status codes (this list includes codes from IETF internet standards as well as other IETF RFCs. Many of them are NOT currently supported by PHP http_response_code function): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_HTTP_status_codes

You can easily test this bug by calling:

http_response_code(521);

The server will send "500 Internal Server Error" HTTP response code resulting in unexpected errors if you have for example a custom client application calling your server and expecting some additional HTTP codes.


My solution (for all PHP versions since 4.1.0):

$httpStatusCode = 521;
$httpStatusMsg  = 'Web server is down';
$phpSapiName    = substr(php_sapi_name(), 0, 3);
if ($phpSapiName == 'cgi' || $phpSapiName == 'fpm') {
    header('Status: '.$httpStatusCode.' '.$httpStatusMsg);
} else {
    $protocol = isset($_SERVER['SERVER_PROTOCOL']) ? $_SERVER['SERVER_PROTOCOL'] : 'HTTP/1.0';
    header($protocol.' '.$httpStatusCode.' '.$httpStatusMsg);
}

Conclusion

http_response_code() implementation does not support all HTTP response codes and may overwrite the specified HTTP response code with another one from the same group.

The new http_response_code() function does not solve all the problems involved but make things worst introducing new bugs.

The "compatibility" solution offered by @dualed does not work as expected, at least under PHP-FPM.

The other solutions offered by @dualed also have various bugs. Fast CGI detection does not handle PHP-FPM. Current protocol must be detected.

Any tests and comments are appreciated.

Apache shows PHP code instead of executing it

Some times if you have php version conflicts it happens To overcome that please follow the below steps

Step 1 : Yum list installed | grep 'php'

if you have multiple versions of php like php 5.6 and php 7.0 this confilict will happens

Step 2 : yum remove **your php version **

Step 3 : Then restart the apapche /etc/init.d/httpd restart or service apache2 restart

How to export the Html Tables data into PDF using Jspdf

I Used Datatable JS plugin for my purpose of exporting an html table data into various formats. With my experience it was very quick, easy to use and configure with minimal coding.

Below is a sample jquery call using datatable plugin, #example is your table id

$(document).ready(function() {
    $('#example').DataTable( {
        dom: 'Bfrtip',
        buttons: [
            'copyHtml5',
            'excelHtml5',
            'csvHtml5',
            'pdfHtml5'
        ]
    } );
} );

Please find the complete example in below datatable reference link :

https://datatables.net/extensions/buttons/examples/html5/simple.html

This is how it looks after configuration( from reference site) : enter image description here

You need to have following library references in your html ( some can be found in the above reference link)

jquery-1.12.3.js
jquery.dataTables.min.js
dataTables.buttons.min.js
jszip.min.js
pdfmake.min.js
vfs_fonts.js
buttons.html5.min.js

jQuery issue - #<an Object> has no method

This problem can also arise if you include jQuery more than once.

Send mail via Gmail with PowerShell V2's Send-MailMessage

Send email with attachment using PowerShell -

      $EmailFrom = "[email protected]"  // [email protected]
      $Subject = "zx"  //subject
      $Body = "Test Body"  // Body of message

      $SMTPMessage = New-Object System.Net.Mail.MailMessage($EmailFrom, $EmailTo, $Subject, $Body)
      $attachment = New-Object System.Net.Mail.Attachment($filenameAndPath)
      $SMTPMessage.Attachments.Add($attachment)
      $SMTPClient = New-Object Net.Mail.SmtpClient($SmtpServer, 587) 
      $SMTPClient.EnableSsl = $true 
      $SMTPClient.Credentials = New-Object System.Net.NetworkCredential("[email protected]", "xxxxxxxx"); // xxxxxx-password
      $SMTPClient.Send($SMTPMessage)

Checking if a list is empty with LINQ

@Konrad what surprises me is that in my tests, I'm passing the list into a method that accepts IEnumerable<T>, so the runtime can't optimize it by calling the Count() extension method for IList<T>.

I can only assume that the Count() extension method for IEnumerable is doing something like this:

public static int Count<T>(this IEnumerable<T> list)
{
    if (list is IList<T>) return ((IList<T>)list).Count;

    int i = 0;
    foreach (var t in list) i++;
    return i;
}

... in other words, a bit of runtime optimization for the special case of IList<T>.

/EDIT @Konrad +1 mate - you're right about it more likely being on ICollection<T>.

Is it possible to use an input value attribute as a CSS selector?

It is possible, if you're using a browser which supports the CSS :valid pseudo-class and the pattern validation attribute on inputs -- which includes most modern browsers except IE9.

For instance, to change the text of an input from black to green when the correct answer is entered:

_x000D_
_x000D_
input {_x000D_
  color: black;_x000D_
}_x000D_
input:valid {_x000D_
  color: green;_x000D_
}
_x000D_
<p>Which country has fifty states?</p>_x000D_
_x000D_
<input type="text" pattern="^United States$">
_x000D_
_x000D_
_x000D_

wget command to download a file and save as a different filename

Using CentOS Linux I found that the easiest syntax would be:

wget "link" -O file.ext

where "link" is the web address you want to save and "file.ext" is the filename and extension of your choice.

type object 'datetime.datetime' has no attribute 'datetime'

You should really import the module into its own alias.

import datetime as dt
my_datetime = dt.datetime(year, month, day)

The above has the following benefits over the other solutions:

  • Calling the variable my_datetime instead of date reduces confusion since there is already a date in the datetime module (datetime.date).
  • The module and the class (both called datetime) do not shadow each other.

Comparing two joda DateTime instances

DateTime inherits its equals method from AbstractInstant. It is implemented as such

public boolean equals(Object readableInstant) {     // must be to fulfil ReadableInstant contract     if (this == readableInstant) {         return true;     }     if (readableInstant instanceof ReadableInstant == false) {         return false;     }     ReadableInstant otherInstant = (ReadableInstant) readableInstant;     return         getMillis() == otherInstant.getMillis() &&         FieldUtils.equals(getChronology(), otherInstant.getChronology()); } 

Notice the last line comparing chronology. It's possible your instances' chronologies are different.

PostgreSQL next value of the sequences?

I stumbled upon this question b/c I was trying to find the next sequence value by table. This didn't answer my question however this is how its done, and it may help those looking for the sequence value not by name but by table:

SELECT nextval(pg_get_serial_sequence('<your_table>', 'id')) AS new_id; 

Hope it helps :)

How do I launch a Git Bash window with particular working directory using a script?
