Request timed out means that the local host did not receive a response from the destination host, but it was able to reach it. Destination host unreachable means that there was no valid route to the requested host.

Use this it's tested on python 2.7 and works fine it returns ping time in milliseconds if success and return False on fail.

import platform,subproccess,re
def Ping(hostname,timeout):
    if platform.system() == "Windows":
        command="ping "+hostname+" -n 1 -w "+str(timeout*1000)
    else:
        command="ping -i "+str(timeout)+" -c 1 " + hostname
    proccess = subprocess.Popen(command, stdout=subprocess.PIPE)
    matches=re.match('.*time=([0-9]+)ms.*', proccess.stdout.read(),re.DOTALL)
    if matches:
        return matches.group(1)
    else: 
        return False

this works fine for me..

$host="127.0.0.1";
$output=shell_exec('ping -n 1 '.$host);

echo "<pre>$output</pre>"; //for viewing the ping result, if not need it just remove it

if (strpos($output, 'out') !== false) {
    echo "Dead";
}
    elseif(strpos($output, 'expired') !== false)
{
    echo "Network Error";
}
    elseif(strpos($output, 'data') !== false)
{
    echo "Alive";
}
else
{
    echo "Unknown Error";
}

I have made a variant solution based on paxdiablo's post

Place the following code in Waitlink.cmd

@setlocal enableextensions enabledelayedexpansion
@echo off
set ipaddr=%1
:loop
set state=up
ping -n 1 !ipaddr! >nul: 2>nul:
if not !errorlevel!==0 set state=down
echo.Link is !state!
if "!state!"=="up" (
  goto :endloop
)
ping -n 6 127.0.0.1 >nul: 2>nul:
goto :loop
:endloop
endlocal

For example use it from another batch file like this

call Waitlink someurl.com
net use o: \\someurl.com\myshare

The call to waitlink will only return when a ping was succesful. Thanks to paxdiablo and Gabe. Hope this helps someone else.

For python3 there's a very simple and convenient python module ping3: (pip install ping3, needs root privileges).

from ping3 import ping, verbose_ping
ping('example.com')  # Returns delay in seconds.
>>> 0.215697261510079666

This module allows for the customization of some parameters as well.

Try this for a unique list.

ping -c 5 -b 10.10.0.255 | grep 'bytes from' | awk '{ print $4 }' | sort | uniq

another method (fetches live hosts):

fping -ag 192.168.1.0/24

I know this is an old post, but I ran into this same issue with my VMs. Log into the VM and go to Control Panel > System and Security > Windows Firewall > Allowed Apps. Then check all of the boxes next to "File and Printer Sharing" to enable file sharing. This should allow you to ping the VM. The screenshot below is from a 2016 Windows Server but the same method will work on older ones.

You probably shouldn't rely on textual output of a command to decide this, especially when the ping command gives you a perfectly good return value:

The ping utility returns an exit status of zero if at least one response was heard from the specified host; a status of two if the transmission was successful but no responses were received; or another value from <sysexits.h> if an error occurred.

In other words, use something like:

((count = 100))                            # Maximum number to try.
while [[ $count -ne 0 ]] ; do
    ping -c 1 8.8.8.8                      # Try once.
    rc=$?
    if [[ $rc -eq 0 ]] ; then
        ((count = 1))                      # If okay, flag to exit loop.
    fi
    ((count = count - 1))                  # So we don't go forever.
done

if [[ $rc -eq 0 ]] ; then                  # Make final determination.
    echo `say The internet is back up.`
else
    echo `say Timeout.`
fi

My original submission was incorrect because it did not evaluate date for each line. Corrections have been made.

Try this

 ping google.com | xargs -L 1 -I '{}' date '+%+: {}'

produces the following output

Thu Aug 15 10:13:59 PDT 2013: PING google.com (74.125.239.103): 56 data bytes

The -L 1 option causes xargs to process one line at a time instead of words.

In Bash, using it's network wrapper through /dev/{udp,tcp}/host/port:

if : >/dev/tcp/8.8.8.8/53; then
  echo 'Internet available.'
else
  echo 'Offline.'
fi

(: is the Bash no-op, because you just want to test the connection, but not processing.)

If you start tinkering with VirtualBox network settings, watch out for this: you might make new network adapters (eth1, eth2), yet have your /etc/network/interfaces still configured for eth0.

Diagnose:

ethtool -i eth0
Cannot get driver information: no such device

Find your interfaces:

ls /sys/class/net
eth1 eth2 lo

Fix it:

Edit /etc/networking/interfaces and replace eth0 with the appropriate interface name (e.g eth1, eth2, etc.)

:%s/eth0/eth2/g

Try this:

double result = Math.Round(24.576938593,2);
MessageBox.Show(result.ToString());

Output: 24.57

Instead of using URLConnection use HttpURLConnection by calling openConnection() on your URL object.

Then use getResponseCode() will give you the HTTP response once you've read from the connection.

here is code:

    HttpURLConnection connection = null;
    try {
        URL u = new URL("http://www.google.com/");
        connection = (HttpURLConnection) u.openConnection();
        connection.setRequestMethod("HEAD");
        int code = connection.getResponseCode();
        System.out.println("" + code);
        // You can determine on HTTP return code received. 200 is success.
    } catch (MalformedURLException e) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e.printStackTrace();
    } catch (IOException e) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e.printStackTrace();
    } finally {
        if (connection != null) {
            connection.disconnect();
        }
    }

Hope this helps.

I'm a beginner and wrote a script to ping multiple hosts.To ping multiple host you can use ipaddress module.

import ipaddress
from subprocess import Popen, PIPE

net4 = ipaddress.ip_network('192.168.2.0/24')
for x in net4.hosts():
    x = str(x)
    hostup = Popen(["ping", "-c1", x], stdout=PIPE)
    output = hostup.communicate()[0]
    val1 = hostup.returncode
 if val1 == 0:
    print(x, "is pinging")
 else:
    print(x, "is not responding")

Parsing pingtest.txt for each HOST name and result with batch is difficult because the name and result are on different lines.

It is much easier to test the result (the returned error code) of each PING command directly instead of redirecting to a file. It is also more efficient to enclose the entire construct in parens and redirect the final output just once.

>result.txt (
  for /f %%i in (testservers.txt) do ping -n 1 %%i >nul && echo %%i UP||echo %%i DOWN
)

You can avoid the loop and cut etc by using:

awk -F ':' '{system("ping " $1);}' config.txt

However it would be better if you post a snippet of your config.txt

using System.Net.NetworkInformation;    

public static bool PingHost(string nameOrAddress)
{
    bool pingable = false;
    Ping pinger = null;

    try
    {
        pinger = new Ping();
        PingReply reply = pinger.Send(nameOrAddress);
        pingable = reply.Status == IPStatus.Success;
    }
    catch (PingException)
    {
        // Discard PingExceptions and return false;
    }
    finally
    {
        if (pinger != null)
        {
            pinger.Dispose();
        }
    }

    return pingable;
}

The usual command line ping tool uses ICMP Echo, but it's true that other protocols can also be used, and they're useful in debugging different kinds of network problems.

I can remember at least arping (for testing ARP requests) and tcping (which tries to establish a TCP connection and immediately closes it, it can be used to check if traffic reaches a certain port on a host) off the top of my head, but I'm sure there are others aswell.

Another option (if you need/want to ping instead of send an HTTP request) is the Ping class for PHP. I wrote it for just this purpose, and it lets you use one of three supported methods to ping a server (some servers/environments only support one of the three methods).

Example usage:

require_once('Ping/Ping.php');
$host = 'www.example.com';
$ping = new Ping($host);
$latency = $ping->ping();
if ($latency) {
  print 'Latency is ' . $latency . ' ms';
}
else {
  print 'Host could not be reached.';
}

socket_create needs to be run as root on a UNIX system with;

$socket = socket_create(AF_UNIX, SOCK_STREAM, 0);

Every time you get this kind of error

bash: <command>: command not found

• On a host with that command already working with this solution:

  dpkg -S $(which <command>)
  

• Don't have a host with that package installed? Try this:

  apt-file search /bin/<command>
  

If telnet is not available, download PuTTY. It is a far superior Telnet, SSH, etc. client and will be useful in many situations, not just this one, especially if you are administering a server.

I am sure you must have named the resultant bat file as "ping.bat". If you rename your file to something else say pingXXX.bat. It will definitely work. Try it out.

my batch file contains below code only

ping 172.31.29.1 -t

with file name as ping.bat

with file name abc.bat

This is a modification of @david-rodríguez-dribeas answer above, which runs all the pings in parallel (much faster) and only shows the output for ip addresses which return the ping.

export COUNTER=1
while [ $COUNTER -lt 255 ]
do
    ping $1$COUNTER -c 1 -w 400 | grep -B 1 "Lost = 0" &
    COUNTER=$(( $COUNTER + 1 ))
done

There is advanced version of ping - "fping", which gives possibility to define the timeout in milliseconds.

#!/bin/bash
IP='192.168.1.1'
fping -c1 -t300 $IP 2>/dev/null 1>/dev/null
if [ "$?" = 0 ]
then
  echo "Host found"
else
  echo "Host not found"
fi

You can not simply ping in Java as it relies on ICMP, which is sadly not supported in Java

http://mindprod.com/jgloss/ping.html

Use sockets instead

Hope it helps

Simple :

@echo off

set hostName=www.stackoverflow.com
set logfile=C:\Users\Dell\Desktop\PING_LOG\NetworkLog\Log_%hostName%.text
echo Network Loging Running %hostName%...
echo Ping Log %hostName% >>%logfile%

:Ping
for /f "tokens=* skip=2" %%A in ('ping %hostName% -n 1 ') do (
    echo %date% %time:~0,2%:%time:~3,2%:%time:~6,2% %%A>>%logfile%
    timeout 1 >NUL
    GOTO Ping)

Find out two pieces of information

• Whats the hostname or IP of the target ssh server
• What port is the ssh daemon listening on (default is port 22)

$> telnet <hostname or ip> <port>

Assuming the daemon is up and running and listening on that port it should etablish a telnet session. Likely causes:

• The ssh daemon is not running
• The host is blocking the target port with its software firewall
• Some intermediate network device is blocking or filtering the target port
• The ssh daemon is listening on a non standard port
• A TCP wrapper is configured and is filtering out your source host

Try using a callback like this with the catch block.

document.getElementById("audio").play().catch(function() {
    // do something
});

You can use GPO to use the certificate within the domain.

But my problem is with Internet Explorer 8, that even with the certificate in the trusted root certification store... it still won't say it's a trusted site.

With this and the driver signing that needs to be done now... I'm starting to wonder who owns my computer!

You can use Double.compare; It compares the two specified double values.

The directory doesn't exist. Make sure it exists as open won't create those dirs for you.

I ran into this myself a while back.

if ( values > 0 ) {
    // Yeah, it's positive
}

this works for ubuntu 15.10:

sudo locale-gen "en_US.UTF-8"
sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales

According to the documentation for that plugin, .visible() returns a boolean indicating if the element is visible. So you'd use it like this:

if ($('#element').visible(true)) {
    // The element is visible, do something
} else {
    // The element is NOT visible, do something else
}

Now, i'm being told that this will terminate the session (or is it all sessions?) in the 15th minute of use, regardless their activity.

This is wrong. It will just kill the session when the associated client (webbrowser) has not accessed the website for more than 15 minutes. The activity certainly counts, exactly as you initially expected, seeing your attempt to solve this.

The HttpSession#setMaxInactiveInterval() doesn't change much here by the way. It does exactly the same as <session-timeout> in web.xml, with the only difference that you can change/set it programmatically during runtime. The change by the way only affects the current session instance, not globally (else it would have been a static method).

To play around and experience this yourself, try to set <session-timeout> to 1 minute and create a HttpSessionListener like follows:

@WebListener
public class HttpSessionChecker implements HttpSessionListener {

    public void sessionCreated(HttpSessionEvent event) {
        System.out.printf("Session ID %s created at %s%n", event.getSession().getId(), new Date());
    }

    public void sessionDestroyed(HttpSessionEvent event) {
        System.out.printf("Session ID %s destroyed at %s%n", event.getSession().getId(), new Date());
    }

}

(if you're not on Servlet 3.0 yet and thus can't use @WebListener, then register in web.xml as follows):

<listener>
    <listener-class>com.example.HttpSessionChecker</listener-class>
</listener>

Note that the servletcontainer won't immediately destroy sessions after exactly the timeout value. It's a background job which runs at certain intervals (e.g. 5~15 minutes depending on load and the servletcontainer make/type). So don't be surprised when you don't see destroyed line in the console immediately after exactly one minute of inactivity. However, when you fire a HTTP request on a timed-out-but-not-destroyed-yet session, it will be destroyed immediately.

If you came across the error when tried to generate a jks file (keystore), so try adding

/Applications/Android\ Studio.app/Contents/jre/jdk/Contents/Home/bin/keytool

before running the command, like so:

/Applications/Android\ Studio.app/Contents/jre/jdk/Contents/Home/bin/keytool -genkey -v -keystore ~/key.jks -keyalg RSA -keysize 2048 -validity 10000 -alias key

As well as find listed in other answers, better shells allow both recurvsive globs and filtering of glob matches, so in zsh for example...

ls -lad **/*(/)

...lists all directories while keeping all the "-l" details that you want, which you'd otherwise need to recreate using something like...

find . -type d -exec ls -ld {} \;

(not quite as easy as the other answers suggest)

The benefit of find is that it's more independent of the shell - more portable, even for system() calls from within a C/C++ program etc..

For instance you can use

update tablename set datetimefield='19980223 14:23:05'
update tablename set datetimefield='02/23/1998 14:23:05'
update tablename set datetimefield='1998-12-23 14:23:05'
update tablename set datetimefield='23 February 1998 14:23:05'
update tablename set datetimefield='1998-02-23T14:23:05'

You need to be careful of day/month order since this will be language dependent when the year is not specified first. If you specify the year first then there is no problem; date order will always be year-month-day.

it works perfectly for me :

document.getElementById('iframe_id').contentWindow.document.body.innerHTML;

Just go to start > type search box uac press enter > you will see 'Change user account control settings' > down the you will see never notify. Click on OK. And you are done.

I think I see your problem, you need to use the @ syntax to define parameters you will pass in this way, also I'm not sure what loginID or password are doing you don't seem to define them anywhere and they are not being used as URL parameters so are they being sent as query parameters?

This is what I can suggest based on what I see so far:

.factory('MagComments', function ($resource) {
    return $resource('http://localhost/dooleystand/ci/api/magCommenct/:id', {
      loginID : organEntity,
      password : organCommpassword,
      id : '@magId'
    });
  })

The @magId string will tell the resource to replace :id with the property magId on the object you pass it as parameters.

I'd suggest reading over the documentation here (I know it's a bit opaque) very carefully and looking at the examples towards the end, this should help a lot.

Here is the real life example

@Html.Grid(Model).Columns(columns =>
    {
           columns.Add()
                   .Encoded(false)
                   .Sanitized(false)
                   .SetWidth(10)
                   .Titled(string.Empty)
                   .RenderValueAs(x => @Html.ActionLink("Edit", "UserDetails", "Membership", null, null, "discount", new { @id = @x.Id }, new { @target = "_blank" }));

  }).WithPaging(200).EmptyText("There Are No Items To Display")

And the target page has TABS

<ul id="myTab" class="nav nav-tabs" role="tablist">

        <li class="active"><a href="#discount" role="tab" data-toggle="tab">Discount</a></li>
    </ul>

select u from UserGroup ug inner join ug.user u 
where ug.group_id = :groupId 
order by u.lastname

As a named query:

@NamedQuery(
  name = "User.findByGroupId",
  query =
    "SELECT u FROM UserGroup ug " +
    "INNER JOIN ug.user u WHERE ug.group_id = :groupId ORDER BY u.lastname"
)

Use paths in the HQL statement, from one entity to the other. See the Hibernate documentation on HQL and joins for details.

That is ill-formatted. You have one JSON object per line, but they are not contained in a larger data structure (ie an array). You'll either need to reformat it so that it begins with [ and ends with ] with a comma at the end of each line, or parse it line by line as separate dictionaries.

If you are working with ASP.NET MVC, you can solve the problem by adding the MaxJsonLength to your result:

var jsonResult = Json(new
{
    draw = param.Draw,
    recordsTotal = count,
    recordsFiltered = count,
    data = result
}, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
jsonResult.MaxJsonLength = int.MaxValue;

There's no problem with using a localhost url for Dev work - obviously it needs to be changed when it comes to production.

You need to go here: https://developers.google.com/accounts/docs/OAuth2 and then follow the link for the API Console - link's in the Basic Steps section. When you've filled out the new application form you'll be asked to provide a redirect Url. Put in the page you want to go to once access has been granted.

When forming the Google oAuth Url - you need to include the redirect url - it has to be an exact match or you'll have problems. It also needs to be UrlEncoded.

For Windows, first install the git base from here: https://git-scm.com/downloads

Next, set the environment variable:

1. Press Windows+R and type sysdm.cpl
2. Select advance -> Environment variable
3. Select path-> edit the path and paste the below line:

C:\Program Files\Git\git-bash.exe

To test it, open the command window: press Windows+R, type cmd and then type ssh.

None of those worked for me, so I had three commits to revert (the last three commits), so I did:

git revert HEAD
git revert HEAD~2
git revert HEAD~4
git rebase -i HEAD~3 # pick, squash, squash

Worked like a charm :)

Standard SQL syntax is

DROP TABLE table_name;

IF EXISTS is not standard; different platforms might support it with different syntax, or not support it at all. In PostgreSQL, the syntax is

DROP TABLE IF EXISTS table_name;

The first one will throw an error if the table doesn't exist, or if other database objects depend on it. Most often, the other database objects will be foreign key references, but there may be others, too. (Views, for example.) The second will not throw an error if the table doesn't exist, but it will still throw an error if other database objects depend on it.

To drop a table, and all the other objects that depend on it, use one of these.

DROP TABLE table_name CASCADE;
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS table_name CASCADE;

Use CASCADE with great care.

GridView does not act as column names, as that's it's datasource property to know those things.

If you still need to know the index given a column name, then you can create a helper method to do this as the gridview Header normally contains this information.

int GetColumnIndexByName(GridViewRow row, string columnName)
{
    int columnIndex = 0;
    foreach (DataControlFieldCell cell in row.Cells)
    {
        if (cell.ContainingField is BoundField)
            if (((BoundField)cell.ContainingField).DataField.Equals(columnName))
                break;
        columnIndex++; // keep adding 1 while we don't have the correct name
    }
    return columnIndex;
}

remember that the code above will use a BoundField... then use it like:

protected void GridView_RowDataBound(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow)
    {
        int index = GetColumnIndexByName(e.Row, "myDataField");
        string columnValue = e.Row.Cells[index].Text;
    }
}

I would strongly suggest that you use the TemplateField to have your own controls, then it's easier to grab those controls like:

<asp:GridView ID="gv" runat="server">
    <Columns>
        <asp:TemplateField>
            <ItemTemplate>
                <asp:Label ID="lblName" runat="server" Text='<%# Eval("Name") %>' />
            </ItemTemplate>
        </asp:TemplateField>
    </Columns>
</asp:GridView>

and then use

string columnValue = ((Label)e.Row.FindControl("lblName")).Text;

For anyone who may stumble across this old question ...

There is one thing that I think needs to be addressed.

~/.nanorc is used to apply your user specific settings to nano, so if you are editing files that require the use of sudo nano for permissions then this is not going to work.

When using sudo your custom user configuration files will not be loaded when opening a program, as you are not running the program from your account so none of your configuration changes in ~/.nanorc will be applied.

If this is the situation you find yourself in (wanting to run sudo nano and use your own config settings) then you have three options :

• using command line flags when running sudo nano
• editing the /root/.nanorc file
• editing the /etc/nanorc global config file

Keep in mind that /etc/nanorc is a global configuration file and as such it affects all users, which may or may not be a problem depending on whether you have a multi-user system.

Also, user config files will override the global one, so if you were to edit /etc/nanorc and ~/.nanorc with different settings, when you run nano it will load the settings from ~/.nanorc but if you run sudo nano then it will load the settings from /etc/nanorc.

Same goes for /root/.nanorc this will override /etc/nanorc when running sudo nano

Using flags is probably the best option unless you have a lot of options.

You can do it with plain JavaScript:

alert('123-4-'.substr(0, 4)); // outputs "123-"

This returns the first four characters of your string (adjust 4 to suit your needs).

Microsoft do not support C99 and haven't announced any plans to. I believe they intend to track C++ standards but consider C as effectively obsolete except as a subset of C++.

New projects in Visual Studio 2003 and later have the "Compile as C++ Code (/TP)" option set by default, so any .c files will be compiled as C++.

I'm an Android newbie but here is the timer class I created based on the answers above. It works for my app but I welcome any suggestions.

Usage example:

...{
public Handler uiHandler = new Handler();

  private Runnable runMethod = new Runnable()
    {
        public void run()
        {
              // do something
        }
    };

    timer = new UITimer(handler, runMethod, timeoutSeconds*1000);       
        timer.start();
}...

public class UITimer
{
    private Handler handler;
    private Runnable runMethod;
    private int intervalMs;
    private boolean enabled = false;
    private boolean oneTime = false;

    public UITimer(Handler handler, Runnable runMethod, int intervalMs)
    {
        this.handler = handler;
        this.runMethod = runMethod;
        this.intervalMs = intervalMs;
    }

    public UITimer(Handler handler, Runnable runMethod, int intervalMs, boolean oneTime)
    {
        this(handler, runMethod, intervalMs);
        this.oneTime = oneTime;
    }

    public void start()
    {
        if (enabled)
            return;

        if (intervalMs < 1)
        {
            Log.e("timer start", "Invalid interval:" + intervalMs);
            return;
        }

        enabled = true;
        handler.postDelayed(timer_tick, intervalMs);        
    }

    public void stop()
    {
        if (!enabled)
            return;

        enabled = false;
        handler.removeCallbacks(runMethod);
        handler.removeCallbacks(timer_tick);
    }

    public boolean isEnabled()
    {
        return enabled;
    }

    private Runnable timer_tick = new Runnable()
    {
        public void run()
        {
            if (!enabled)
                return;

            handler.post(runMethod);

            if (oneTime)
            {
                enabled = false;
                return;
            }

            handler.postDelayed(timer_tick, intervalMs);
        }
    }; 
}

Prestaul's answer was helpful, but it didn't quite work for me. The jQuery way to select an object by id didn't work. I had to use

document.getElementById("a").className

instead of

$("#a").className

Lodash is also the same First write a script as follows:

<script type="text/template" id="genTable">
<table cellspacing='0' cellpadding='0' border='1'>
        <tr>
            <% for(var prop in users[0]){%>
            <th><%= prop %> </th>
            <% }%>
        </tr>
        <%_.forEach(users, function(user) { %>
            <tr>
                 <% for(var prop in user){%>
                    <td><%= user[prop] %> </td>
                <% }%>

            </tr>
        <%})%>
</table>

Now write some simple JS as follows:

var arrOfObjects = [];
for (var s = 0; s < 10; s++) {
    var simpleObject = {};
    simpleObject.Name = "Name_" + s;
    simpleObject.Address = "Address_" + s;
    arrOfObjects[s] = simpleObject;
}
var theObject = { 'users': arrOfObjects }
var compiled = _.template($("#genTable").text());
var sigma = compiled({ 'users': myArr });

$(sigma).appendTo("#popup");

Where popoup is a div where you want to generate the table

If you don't want a multiline string, but just have a long single line string, you can use parentheses. Just make sure you don't include commas between the string segments (then it will be a tuple).

query = ('SELECT   action.descr as "action", '
         'role.id as role_id,'
         'role.descr as role'
         ' FROM '
         'public.role_action_def,'
         'public.role,'
         'public.record_def, '
         'public.action'
         ' WHERE role.id = role_action_def.role_id AND'
         ' record_def.id = role_action_def.def_id AND'
         ' action.id = role_action_def.action_id AND'
         ' role_action_def.account_id = '+account_id+' AND'
         ' record_def.account_id='+account_id+' AND'
         ' def_id='+def_id)

In a SQL statement like what you're constructing, multiline strings would also be fine. But if the extra white space a multiline string would contain would be a problem, then this would be a good way to achieve what you want.

List<string> includedWords = new List<string>() { "a", "b", "c" };
bool string_contains_words = includedWords.Exists(o => s.Contains(o));

Just to clarify the problem here - the error is in the following bit of code:

<xsl:attribute name="src">
    <xsl:copy-of select="/root/Image/node()"/>
</xsl:attribute>

The instruction xsl:copy-of takes a node or node-set and makes a copy of it - outputting a node or node-set. However an attribute cannot contain a node, only a textual value, so xsl:value-of would be a possible solution (as this returns the textual value of a node or nodeset).

A MUCH shorter solution (and perhaps more elegant) would be the following:

<img width="100" height="100" src="{/root/Image/node()}" class="CalloutRightPhoto"/>

The use of the {} in the attribute is called an Attribute Value Template, and can contain any XPATH expression.

Note, the same XPath can be used here as you have used in the xsl_copy-of as it knows to take the textual value when used in a Attribute Value Template.

Have you tried RedirectToAction?

if you are running nvm you might want to run nvm use <desired-node-version> This keeps node consistent with npm

The POSIX standard mandates that multiple / are treated as a single / in a file name. Thus //dir///subdir////file is the same as /dir/subdir/file.

As such concatenating a two strings to build a complete path is a simple as:

full_path="$part1/$part2"

You don't need to reference the System.Windows.Forms assembly from your application. Instead, you can use System.Windows.SystemParameters.WorkArea. This is equivalent to the System.Windows.Forms.Screen.PrimaryScreen.WorkingArea!

Personally I would always run some form of sanitation on the data first as you can never trust user input, however when using placeholders / parameter binding the inputted data is sent to the server separately to the sql statement and then binded together. The key here is that this binds the provided data to a specific type and a specific use and eliminates any opportunity to change the logic of the SQL statement.

Which Boost library? Many of them are pure templates and do not require linking.

Now with that actually shown concrete example which tells us that you want Boost program options (and even more told us that you are on Ubuntu), you need to do two things:

1. Install libboost-program-options-dev so that you can link against it.
2. Tell cmake to link against libboost_program_options.

I mostly use Makefiles so here is the direct command-line use:

$ g++ boost_program_options_ex1.cpp -o bpo_ex1 -lboost_program_options
$ ./bpo_ex1
$ ./bpo_ex1 -h
$ ./bpo_ex1 --help
$ ./bpo_ex1 -help
$

It doesn't do a lot it seems.

For CMake, you need to add boost_program_options to the list of libraries, and IIRC this is done via SET(liblist boost_program_options) in your CMakeLists.txt.

The main difference will be that if you use Action<> your event will not follow the design pattern of virtually any other event in the system, which I would consider a drawback.

One upside with the dominating design pattern (apart from the power of sameness) is that you can extend the EventArgs object with new properties without altering the signature of the event. This would still be possible if you used Action<SomeClassWithProperties>, but I don't really see the point with not using the regular approach in that case.

Is it possible that you can avoid using wsdl2java? You can straight away use CXF FrontEnd APIs to invoke your SOAP Webservice. The only catch is that you need to create your SEI and VOs on your client end. Here is a sample code.

package com.aranin.weblog4j.client;

import com.aranin.weblog4j.services.BookShelfService;
import com.aranin.weblog4j.vo.BookVO;
import org.apache.cxf.jaxws.JaxWsProxyFactoryBean;

public class DemoClient {
    public static void main(String[] args){
        String serviceUrl = "http://localhost:8080/weblog4jdemo/bookshelfservice";
        JaxWsProxyFactoryBean factory = new JaxWsProxyFactoryBean();
        factory.setServiceClass(BookShelfService.class);
        factory.setAddress(serviceUrl);
        BookShelfService bookService = (BookShelfService) factory.create();

        //insert book
        BookVO bookVO = new BookVO();
        bookVO.setAuthor("Issac Asimov");
        bookVO.setBookName("Foundation and Earth");

        String result = bookService.insertBook(bookVO);

        System.out.println("result : " + result);

        bookVO = new BookVO();
        bookVO.setAuthor("Issac Asimov");
        bookVO.setBookName("Foundation and Empire");

        result = bookService.insertBook(bookVO);

        System.out.println("result : " + result);

        bookVO = new BookVO();
        bookVO.setAuthor("Arthur C Clarke");
        bookVO.setBookName("Rama Revealed");

        result = bookService.insertBook(bookVO);

        System.out.println("result : " + result);

        //retrieve book

        bookVO = bookService.getBook("Foundation and Earth");

        System.out.println("book name : " + bookVO.getBookName());
        System.out.println("book author : " + bookVO.getAuthor());

    }
}

This happens when you have application running on the same port number. One way to do this by killing the process forcefully. Open command prompt as an admin. Run command 'taskkill /IM "java.exe" /F'. This worked for me in Windows. Let me know if this works.

ytd2 is a fully functional YouTube video downloader. Check out its source code if you want to see how it's done.

Alternatively, you can also call an external process like youtube-dl to do the job. This is probably the easiest solution but it isn't in "pure" Java.

If you can't use basename as suggested in other posts, you can always use sed. Here is an (ugly) example. It isn't the greatest, but it works by extracting the wanted string and replacing the input with the wanted string.

echo '/foo/fizzbuzz.bar' | sed 's|.*\/\([^\.]*\)\(\..*\)$|\1|g'

Which will get you the output

fizzbuzz

With recent browser support of "Clear-Site-Data" headers, you can clear different types of data: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Clear-Site-Data

header('Clear-Site-Data: "cache", "cookies", "storage", "executionContexts"');

Try this:

MarginLayoutParams params = (MarginLayoutParams) view.getLayoutParams();
params.width = 250;
params.leftMargin = 50;
params.topMargin = 50;

git checkout foo/bar.txt

did you tried that? (without a HEAD keyword)

I usually revert my changes this way.

if (!"success".equals(statusCheck))

You might just have to install the packages.

yum install php-pdo php-mysqli

After they're installed, restart Apache.

httpd restart

or

apachectl restart

For what is worth, I got this error doing a clean install of nodejs and npm packages of my current linux-distribution I've installed meteor using

npm install metor

And got the above referenced error. After wasting some time, I found out I should have used meteor's way to update itself:

meteor update

This command output, among others, the message that meteor was severely outdated (over 2 years) and that it was going to install itself using:

curl https://install.meteor.com/ | sh

Which was probably the command I should have run in the first place.

So the solution might be to upgrade/update whatever nodejs package(js) you're using.

After Many attempts in getting this fixed, it was found out that the issue was with Mysql users not being allowed to login

netstat -na | grep -i 3306

If it is listening on all interfaces, then you can assign any of your interfaces to this

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['host'] = 'ANY INTERFACE';

Try to Login using the above IP using the comand line

mysql -u bla -p -h <Above_IP_address>

If this works then your phpmyadmin will also work, If not fix the mysql.user table so that the above command works and allows you to login to mysql.

Based on Mark Longair & Roboprog answers :

if git version >= 1.8

git init --bare --shared=group .git
git config receive.denyCurrentBranch ignore

Or :

if git version < 1.8

mkdir .git
cd .git
git init --bare --shared=group 
git config receive.denyCurrentBranch ignore

You can simply run

$(document).keyup(function(e) {
    console.log(e.keyCode);
});

to see the codes of pressed keys in the browser console.

Or you can find key codes here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/KeyboardEvent/keyCode#Numpad_keys

$day_number = date('N', $date);

This will return a 1 for Monday to 7 for Sunday, for the date that is stored in $date. Omitting the second argument will cause date() to return the number for the current day.

Just run cmd as admin. delete old node_modules folder and run npm install again.

I have several projects in a solution. For some of the projects, I previously added the references manually. When I used NuGet to update the WebAPI package, those references were not updated automatically.

I found out that I can either manually update those reference so they point to the v5 DLL inside the Packages folder of my solution or do the following.

1. Go to the "Manage NuGet Packages"
2. Select the Installed Package "Microsoft ASP.NET Web API 2.1"
3. Click Manage and check the projects that I manually added before.

Daemon threads are like a service providers for other threads or objects running in the same process as the daemon thread. Daemon threads are used for background supporting tasks and are only needed while normal threads are executing. If normal threads are not running and remaining threads are daemon threads then the interpreter exits.

For example, the HotJava browser uses up to four daemon threads named "Image Fetcher" to fetch images from the file system or network for any thread that needs one.

Daemon threads are typically used to perform services for your application/applet (such as loading the "fiddley bits"). The core difference between user threads and daemon threads is that the JVM will only shut down a program when all user threads have terminated. Daemon threads are terminated by the JVM when there are no longer any user threads running, including the main thread of execution.

setDaemon(true/false) ? This method is used to specify that a thread is daemon thread.

public boolean isDaemon() ? This method is used to determine the thread is daemon thread or not.

Eg:

public class DaemonThread extends Thread {
    public void run() {
        System.out.println("Entering run method");

        try {
            System.out.println("In run Method: currentThread() is" + Thread.currentThread());

            while (true) {
                try {
                    Thread.sleep(500);
                } catch (InterruptedException x) {}

                System.out.println("In run method: woke up again");
            }
        } finally {
            System.out.println("Leaving run Method");
        }
    }
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println("Entering main Method");

        DaemonThread t = new DaemonThread();
        t.setDaemon(true);
        t.start();

        try {
            Thread.sleep(3000);
        } catch (InterruptedException x) {}

        System.out.println("Leaving main method");
    }

}

OutPut:

One PHP-ish (5.2+) & no-Flash way that worked nicely for me:

First, see this post explaining how to get "uploadprogress" extension up and running.

Then, in the page containing the form that you are uploading file(s) from, create the following iframe:

<iframe id="progress_iframe" src="" style="display:none;" scrolling="no" frameborder="0"></iframe>

Next, add this code to your "Submit" button:

onclick="function set() { f=document.getElementById('progress_iframe'); f.style.display='block'; f.src='uploadprogress.php?id=<?=$upload_id?>';} setTimeout(set);"

Now you have a hidden iframe in your form that will come visible and show contents of uploadprogress.php when you click "Submit" to start uploading files. $upload_id must be the same that you are using as the value of hidden field "UPLOAD_IDENTIFIER" in your form.

The uploadprogress.php itself looks about like this (fix and adjust to your needs):

<html>
<head>
<META HTTP-EQUIV='REFRESH' CONTENT='1;URL=?id=<?=$_GET['id']?>'>
</head>
<body>
Upload progress:<br />
<?php
    if(!$_GET['id']) die;
    $info = uploadprogress_get_info($_GET['id']);
    $kbytes_total = round($info['bytes_total'] / 1024);
    $kbytes_uploaded = round($info['bytes_uploaded'] / 1024);
    echo $kbytes_uploaded.'/'.$kbytes_total.' KB';
?>
</body>
</html>

Note that is self-refreshes every second. You can surely add some nice visual progress bar here (like 2 nested <div>s with different colors) if you like. The iframe with upload progress naturally only works while the upload is in progress, and ends its visible life once the form is submitted and browser reloads to the next page.

In urls.py you can override the 3 most important variables:

from django.contrib import admin

admin.site.site_header = 'My project'                    # default: "Django Administration"
admin.site.index_title = 'Features area'                 # default: "Site administration"
admin.site.site_title = 'HTML title from adminsitration' # default: "Django site admin"

Reference: Django documentation on these attributes.

Slightly modified from: Python Pandas Dataframe: Normalize data between 0.01 and 0.99? but from some of the comments thought it was relevant (sorry if considered a repost though...)

I wanted customized normalization in that regular percentile of datum or z-score was not adequate. Sometimes I knew what the feasible max and min of the population were, and therefore wanted to define it other than my sample, or a different midpoint, or whatever! This can often be useful for rescaling and normalizing data for neural nets where you may want all inputs between 0 and 1, but some of your data may need to be scaled in a more customized way... because percentiles and stdevs assumes your sample covers the population, but sometimes we know this isn't true. It was also very useful for me when visualizing data in heatmaps. So i built a custom function (used extra steps in the code here to make it as readable as possible):

def NormData(s,low='min',center='mid',hi='max',insideout=False,shrinkfactor=0.):    
    if low=='min':
        low=min(s)
    elif low=='abs':
        low=max(abs(min(s)),abs(max(s)))*-1.#sign(min(s))
    if hi=='max':
        hi=max(s)
    elif hi=='abs':
        hi=max(abs(min(s)),abs(max(s)))*1.#sign(max(s))

    if center=='mid':
        center=(max(s)+min(s))/2
    elif center=='avg':
        center=mean(s)
    elif center=='median':
        center=median(s)

    s2=[x-center for x in s]
    hi=hi-center
    low=low-center
    center=0.

    r=[]

    for x in s2:
        if x<low:
            r.append(0.)
        elif x>hi:
            r.append(1.)
        else:
            if x>=center:
                r.append((x-center)/(hi-center)*0.5+0.5)
            else:
                r.append((x-low)/(center-low)*0.5+0.)

    if insideout==True:
        ir=[(1.-abs(z-0.5)*2.) for z in r]
        r=ir

    rr =[x-(x-0.5)*shrinkfactor for x in r]    
    return rr

This will take in a pandas series, or even just a list and normalize it to your specified low, center, and high points. also there is a shrink factor! to allow you to scale down the data away from endpoints 0 and 1 (I had to do this when combining colormaps in matplotlib:Single pcolormesh with more than one colormap using Matplotlib) So you can likely see how the code works, but basically say you have values [-5,1,10] in a sample, but want to normalize based on a range of -7 to 7 (so anything above 7, our "10" is treated as a 7 effectively) with a midpoint of 2, but shrink it to fit a 256 RGB colormap:

#In[1]
NormData([-5,2,10],low=-7,center=1,hi=7,shrinkfactor=2./256)
#Out[1]
[0.1279296875, 0.5826822916666667, 0.99609375]

It can also turn your data inside out... this may seem odd, but I found it useful for heatmapping. Say you want a darker color for values closer to 0 rather than hi/low. You could heatmap based on normalized data where insideout=True:

#In[2]
NormData([-5,2,10],low=-7,center=1,hi=7,insideout=True,shrinkfactor=2./256)
#Out[2]
[0.251953125, 0.8307291666666666, 0.00390625]

So now "2" which is closest to the center, defined as "1" is the highest value.

Anyways, I thought my application was relevant if you're looking to rescale data in other ways that could have useful applications to you.

Further, people usually want to remove all *.pyc, *.pyo files and __pycache__ directories recursively in the current directory.

Command:

find . | grep -E "(__pycache__|\.pyc|\.pyo$)" | xargs rm -rf

You could use UNION to combine two joins:

SELECT Table1.PhoneNumber1 as PhoneNumber, Table2.SomeOtherField as OtherField
  FROM Table1
  JOIN Table2
    ON Table1.PhoneNumber1 = Table2.PhoneNumber
 UNION
SELECT Table1.PhoneNumber2 as PhoneNumber, Table2.SomeOtherField as OtherField
  FROM Table1
  JOIN Table2
    ON Table1.PhoneNumber2 = Table2.PhoneNumber

Sooner or later you will need to change how that variable is set or what happens when it is accessed, or you just need to hunt down where it is changed.

It is practically always better to not have global variables. Just write the dam get and set methods, and be gland you when you need them a day, week or month later.

import * as saveAsFunctions from 'file-saver';
..........
....... 
let saveAs;
            beforeEach(() => {
                saveAs = jasmine.createSpy('saveAs');
            })
            it('should generate the excel on sample request details page', () => {
                spyOn(saveAsFunctions, 'saveAs').and.callFake(saveAs);
                expect(saveAsFunctions.saveAs).toHaveBeenCalled();
            })

This worked for me.

Because the bootstrap-select is a bootstrap component and therefore you need to include it in your code as you did for your V3

NOTE: this component only works in boostrap-4 since version 1.13.0

$('select').selectpicker();

This is an excerpt from Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs about tail recursion.

In contrasting iteration and recursion, we must be careful not to confuse the notion of a recursive process with the notion of a recursive procedure. When we describe a procedure as recursive, we are referring to the syntactic fact that the procedure definition refers (either directly or indirectly) to the procedure itself. But when we describe a process as following a pattern that is, say, linearly recursive, we are speaking about how the process evolves, not about the syntax of how a procedure is written. It may seem disturbing that we refer to a recursive procedure such as fact-iter as generating an iterative process. However, the process really is iterative: Its state is captured completely by its three state variables, and an interpreter need keep track of only three variables in order to execute the process.

One reason that the distinction between process and procedure may be confusing is that most implementations of common languages (including Ada, Pascal, and C) are designed in such a way that the interpretation of any recursive procedure consumes an amount of memory that grows with the number of procedure calls, even when the process described is, in principle, iterative. As a consequence, these languages can describe iterative processes only by resorting to special-purpose “looping constructs” such as do, repeat, until, for, and while. The implementation of Scheme does not share this defect. It will execute an iterative process in constant space, even if the iterative process is described by a recursive procedure. An implementation with this property is called tail-recursive. With a tail-recursive implementation, iteration can be expressed using the ordinary procedure call mechanism, so that special iteration constructs are useful only as syntactic sugar.

If your whitespace is consistent you could use that as a delimiter, also instead of inserting \t directly, you could set the output separator and it will be included automatically:

< file awk -v OFS='\t' -v FS='[/ ]' '{print $3, $5, $NF}'

Use one way flow syntax property binding:

<div [innerHTML]="comment"></div>

From angular docs: "Angular recognizes the value as unsafe and automatically sanitizes it, which removes the <script> tag but keeps safe content such as the <b> element."

if you're hosting behind a server, and still facing issues: try changing localhost to 127.0.0.1 e.g. http://localhost:8080/ to http://127.0.0.1:8080/

The issue I was facing was that I was serving a site using apache tomcat within an eclipse IDE (eclipse luna).

For my sanity check I was using Remy Sharp's demo: https://github.com/remy/html5demos/blob/eae156ca2e35efbc648c381222fac20d821df494/demos/geo.html

and was getting the error after making minor tweaks to the error function despite hosting the code on the server (was only working on firefox and failing on chrome and safari):

"User denied Geolocation"

I made the following change to get more detailed error message:

function error(msg) {
  var s = document.querySelector('#status');
  msg = msg.message ? msg.message : msg; //add this line
  s.innerHTML = typeof msg == 'string' ? msg : "failed";
  s.className = 'fail';

  // console.log(arguments);
}

failing on internet explorer behind virtualbox IE10 on http://10.0.2.2:8080 :

"The current location cannot be determined"

Building on Jon Skeet's reply, there are times when you want to invoke a delegate and wait for its execution to complete before the current thread continues. In those cases the Invoke call is what you want.

In multi-threading applications, you may not want a thread to wait on a delegate to finish execution, especially if that delegate performs I/O (which could make the delegate and your thread block).

In those cases the BeginInvoke would be useful. By calling it, you're telling the delegate to start but then your thread is free to do other things in parallel with the delegate.

Using BeginInvoke increases the complexity of your code but there are times when the improved performance is worth the complexity.

Unfortunately, no. This feature is not available for facebook albums.

Interesting question and I think there is no "right" answer, since it always depends on the responsibility of your code. Does your method know if no found data is a problem or not? In most cases the answer is "no" and that's why returning null and letting the caller handling he situation is perfect.

Maybe a good approach to distinguish throwing methods from null-returning methods is to find a convention in your team: Methods that say they "get" something should throw an exception if there is nothing to get. Methods that may return null could be named differently, perhaps "Find..." instead.

Just put an empty string in the radix place, because parseInt() take two arguments:

parseInt(string, radix);

string The value to parse. If the string argument is not a string, then it is converted to a string (using the ToString abstract operation). Leading whitespace in the string argument is ignored.

radix An integer between 2 and 36 that represents the radix (the base in mathematical numeral systems) of the above-mentioned string. Specify 10 for the decimal numeral system commonly used by humans. Always specify this parameter to eliminate reader confusion and to guarantee predictable behavior. Different implementations produce different results when a radix is not specified, usually defaulting the value to 10.

imageIndex = parseInt(id.substring(id.length - 1))-1;
imageIndex = parseInt(id.substring(id.length - 1), '')-1;

To answer your question about getting the URL to use for urllib, just execute this JavaScript code:

url = browser.execute_script("return window.location;")

This is an old post but...

You can reference the working directory (the folder the .html file is located in) with ./, and the directory above that with ../

Example directory structure:

/html/public/
- index.html
- script2.js
- js/
   - script.js

To load script.js from inside index.html:

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

This goes to the current working directory (location of index.html) and then to the js folder, and then finds the script.

You could also specify ../ to go one directory above the working directory, to load things from there. But that is unusual.

The plus sign is the historic encoding for a space character in URL parameters, as documented in the help for the urlencode() function.

That same page contains the answer you need - use rawurlencode() instead to get RFC 3986 compatible encoding.

DEMO : https://jsfiddle.net/ipsjolly/xygr065w/

$(function(){
    $("#submit").click(function(){      
        alert($('input:radio:checked').val());
    });
 });

If we follow the w3 org table reference ,and follow the Permitted Contents section, we can see that the table tags takes tbody(optional) and tr as the only permitted contents.

So i reckon it is safe to say we cannot add a div tag which is a flow content as a direct child of the table which i understand is what you meant when you had said above a tr.

Having said that , as we follow the above link , you will find that it is safe to use divs inside the td element as seen here

Alternate Vanilla JS version with click outside to hide checkboxes:

let expanded = false;
const multiSelect = document.querySelector('.multiselect');

multiSelect.addEventListener('click', function(e) {
  const checkboxes = document.getElementById("checkboxes");
    if (!expanded) {
    checkboxes.style.display = "block";
    expanded = true;
  } else {
    checkboxes.style.display = "none";
    expanded = false;
  }
  e.stopPropagation();
}, true)

document.addEventListener('click', function(e){
  if (expanded) {
    checkboxes.style.display = "none";
    expanded = false;
  }
}, false)

I'm using addEventListener instead of onClick in order to take advantage of the capture/bubbling phase options along with stopPropagation(). You can read more about the capture/bubbling here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/EventTarget/addEventListener

The rest of the code matches vitfo's original answer (but no need for onclick() in the html). A couple of people have requested this functionality sans jQuery.

Here's codepen example https://codepen.io/davidysoards/pen/QXYYYa?editors=1010

A way that can be fastest, especially if your list has a lot of records, is to use operator.attrgetter("count"). However, this might run on an pre-operator version of Python, so it would be nice to have a fallback mechanism. You might want to do the following, then:

try: import operator
except ImportError: keyfun= lambda x: x.count # use a lambda if no operator module
else: keyfun= operator.attrgetter("count") # use operator since it's faster than lambda

ut.sort(key=keyfun, reverse=True) # sort in-place

Another late answer, but I was playing with this and came up with a general purpose Sass solution that I found useful and many others might as well. To give an overview, this introduces new classes that can modify the column count of a .card-columns element in very similar ways to columns with .col-4 or .col-lg-3:

@import "bootstrap";

$card-column-counts: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5;

.card-columns {
    @each $column-count in $card-column-counts {
        &.card-columns-#{$column-count} {
            column-count: $column-count;
        }
    }

    @each $breakpoint in map-keys($grid-breakpoints) {
        @include media-breakpoint-up($breakpoint) {
            $infix: breakpoint-infix($breakpoint, $grid-breakpoints);
            @each $column-count in $card-column-counts {
                &.card-columns#{$infix}-#{$column-count} {
                    column-count: $column-count;
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

The end result of this is if you have the following:

<div class="card-columns card-columns-2 card-columns-md-3 card-columns-xl-4">
   ...
</div>

Then you would have 2 columns by default, 3 for medium devices and up and 4 for xl devices and up. Additionally if you change your grid breakpoints this will automatically support those, and the $card-column-counts can be overridden to change the allowed numbers of columns.

In R the equivalent function is seq and you can use it with the option by:

seq(from = 5, to = 100, by = 5)
# [1]   5  10  15  20  25  30  35  40  45  50  55  60  65  70  75  80  85  90  95 100

In addition to by you can also have other options such as length.out and along.with.

length.out: If you want to get a total of 10 numbers between 0 and 1, for example:

seq(0, 1, length.out = 10)
# gives 10 equally spaced numbers from 0 to 1

along.with: It takes the length of the vector you supply as input and provides a vector from 1:length(input).

seq(along.with=c(10,20,30))
# [1] 1 2 3

Although, instead of using the along.with option, it is recommended to use seq_along in this case. From the documentation for ?seq

seq is generic, and only the default method is described here. Note that it dispatches on the class of the first argument irrespective of argument names. This can have unintended consequences if it is called with just one argument intending this to be taken as along.with: it is much better to use seq_along in that case.

seq_along: Instead of seq(along.with(.))

seq_along(c(10,20,30))
# [1] 1 2 3

Hope this helps.

Just adding .First to your bananaToken should do it:
foodJsonObj["food"]["fruit"]["orange"].Parent.AddAfterSelf(bananaToken .First);
.First basically moves past the { to make it a JProperty instead of a JToken.

@Brian Rogers, Thanks I forgot the .Parent. Edited

That is not always true; it only works in Windows.
For interacting with terminal in putty, Linux shell,... it will be used for returning the cursor to the beginning of line. following picture shows the usage of that:

Without '\r':

Data comes without '\r' to the putty terminal, it has just '\n'.
it means that data will be printed just in next line.

With '\r':

Data comes with '\r', i.e. string ends with '\r\n'. So the cursor in putty terminal not only will go to the next line but also at the beginning of line

bootstrap comes with clas btn-lg http://getbootstrap.com/components/#btn-dropdowns-sizing

<div class="btn btn-default btn-block">
  Active
</div>

but if you want to have the button of the width of your column / container add btn-block

<div class="btn btn-default btn-lg">
      Active
    </div>

However this will expand to 100% so make surt ethat you will wrap your button in certain amount of columns e.g. then you know its always stays 3 columns until xs screen

<div class="col-sm-3">
             <div class="btn btn-default btn-block">
          Active
            </div>
        </div>

Best way would be

#include <iostream>                        
using namespace std;                       

int main() {                               
    float celsius;                         
    float fahrenheit;

    cout << "Enter Celsius temperature: "; 
    cin >> celsius;
    fahrenheit = (celsius * 1.8) + 32;// removing division for the confusion
    cout << "Fahrenheit = " << fahrenheit << endl;

    return 0;                             
}

:)

Because you initialized the top variable to -1 in your constructor, you need to increment the top variable in your push() method before you access the array. Note that I've changed the assignment to use ++top:

public void push(int i) 
{
    if (top == stack.length)
    {
        extendStack();
    }

    stack[++top]= i;
}

That will fix the ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException you posted about. I can see other issues in your code, but since this is a homework assignment I'll leave those as "an exercise for the reader." :)

The solution by @virgo47 is very fast, but approximate. The accepted answer uses Normalizer and a regular expression. I wondered what part of the time was taken by Normalizer versus the regular expression, since removing all the non-ASCII characters can be done without a regex:

import java.text.Normalizer;

public class Strip {
    public static String flattenToAscii(String string) {
        StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder(string.length());
        string = Normalizer.normalize(string, Normalizer.Form.NFD);
        for (char c : string.toCharArray()) {
            if (c <= '\u007F') sb.append(c);
        }
        return sb.toString();
    }
}

Small additional speed-ups can be obtained by writing into a char[] and not calling toCharArray(), although I'm not sure that the decrease in code clarity merits it:

public static String flattenToAscii(String string) {
    char[] out = new char[string.length()];
    string = Normalizer.normalize(string, Normalizer.Form.NFD);
    int j = 0;
    for (int i = 0, n = string.length(); i < n; ++i) {
        char c = string.charAt(i);
        if (c <= '\u007F') out[j++] = c;
    }
    return new String(out);
}

This variation has the advantage of the correctness of the one using Normalizer and some of the speed of the one using a table. On my machine, this one is about 4x faster than the accepted answer, and 6.6x to 7x slower that @virgo47's (the accepted answer is about 26x slower than @virgo47's on my machine).

None of the current answers worked for me because my data was in this format from the unix side:

2016-02-02 19:21:42 UTC

I needed to convert this to Epoch to allow referencing other data which had epoch timestamps.

1. Create a new column for the date part and parse with this formula

   =DATEVALUE(MID(A2,6,2) & "/" & MID(A2,9,2) & "/" & MID(A2,1,4)) 
   

2. As other Grendler has stated here already, create another column

   =(B2-DATE(1970,1,1))*86400 
   

3. Create another column with just the time added together to get total seconds:

   =(VALUE(MID(A2,12,2))*60*60+VALUE(MID(A2,15,2))*60+VALUE(MID(A2,18,2)))
   

4. Create a last column that just adds the last two columns together:

   =C2+D2
   

locate <file_pattern>

*** find will certainly work, and can target specific directories. However, this command is slower than the locate command. On a Linux OS, each morning a database is constructed that contains a list of all directory and files, and the locate command efficiently searches this database, so if you want to do a search for files that weren't created today, this would be the fastest way to accomplish such a task.

Note that since git1.7.11 ([ANNOUNCE] Git 1.7.11.rc1 and release note, June 2012) mentions:

"git push --recurse-submodules" learned to optionally look into the histories of submodules bound to the superproject and push them out.

Probably done after this patch and the --on-demand option:

recurse-submodules=<check|on-demand>::

Make sure all submodule commits used by the revisions to be pushed are available on a remote tracking branch.

• If check is used, it will be checked that all submodule commits that changed in the revisions to be pushed are available on a remote.
  Otherwise the push will be aborted and exit with non-zero status.
• If on-demand is used, all submodules that changed in the revisions to be pushed will be pushed.
  If on-demand was not able to push all necessary revisions it will also be aborted and exit with non-zero status.

So you could push everything in one go with (from the parent repo) a:

git push --recurse-submodules=on-demand

This option only works for one level of nesting. Changes to the submodule inside of another submodule will not be pushed.

With git 2.7 (January 2016), a simple git push will be enough to push the parent repo... and all its submodules.

See commit d34141c, commit f5c7cd9 (03 Dec 2015), commit f5c7cd9 (03 Dec 2015), and commit b33a15b (17 Nov 2015) by Mike Crowe (mikecrowe).
^{(Merged by Junio C Hamano -- gitster -- in commit 5d35d72, 21 Dec 2015)}

push: add recurseSubmodules config option

The --recurse-submodules command line parameter has existed for some time but it has no config file equivalent.

Following the style of the corresponding parameter for git fetch, let's invent push.recurseSubmodules to provide a default for this parameter.
This also requires the addition of --recurse-submodules=no to allow the configuration to be overridden on the command line when required.

The most straightforward way to implement this appears to be to make push use code in submodule-config in a similar way to fetch.

The git config doc now include:

push.recurseSubmodules:

Make sure all submodule commits used by the revisions to be pushed are available on a remote-tracking branch.

• If the value is 'check', then Git will verify that all submodule commits that changed in the revisions to be pushed are available on at least one remote of the submodule. If any commits are missing, the push will be aborted and exit with non-zero status.
• If the value is 'on-demand' then all submodules that changed in the revisions to be pushed will be pushed. If on-demand was not able to push all necessary revisions it will also be aborted and exit with non-zero status. -
• If the value is 'no' then default behavior of ignoring submodules when pushing is retained.

You may override this configuration at time of push by specifying '--recurse-submodules=check|on-demand|no'.

So:

git config push.recurseSubmodules on-demand
git push

Git 2.12 (Q1 2017)

git push --dry-run --recurse-submodules=on-demand will actually work.

See commit 0301c82, commit 1aa7365 (17 Nov 2016) by Brandon Williams (mbrandonw).
^{(Merged by Junio C Hamano -- gitster -- in commit 12cf113, 16 Dec 2016)}

push run with --dry-run doesn't actually (Git 2.11 Dec. 2016 and lower/before) perform a dry-run when push is configured to push submodules on-demand.
Instead all submodules which need to be pushed are actually pushed to their remotes while any updates for the superproject are performed as a dry-run.
This is a bug and not the intended behaviour of a dry-run.

Teach push to respect the --dry-run option when configured to recursively push submodules 'on-demand'.
This is done by passing the --dry-run flag to the child process which performs a push for a submodules when performing a dry-run.

And still in Git 2.12, you now havea "--recurse-submodules=only" option to push submodules out without pushing the top-level superproject.

See commit 225e8bf, commit 6c656c3, commit 14c01bd (19 Dec 2016) by Brandon Williams (mbrandonw).
^{(Merged by Junio C Hamano -- gitster -- in commit 792e22e, 31 Jan 2017)}

Better to use a vbs as you indicated

1. Create a simple vbs, which is a text file with a .vbs extension (see sample code below)
2. Use the Task Scheduler to run the vbs
3. Use the vbs to open the workbook at the scheduled time and then either:
   • use the Private Sub Workbook_Open() event in the ThisWorkbook module to run code when the file is opened
   • more robustly (as macros may be disabled on open), use Application.Run in the vbs to run the macro

See this example of the later approach at Running Excel on Windows Task Scheduler

sample vbs

Dim ObjExcel, ObjWB
Set ObjExcel = CreateObject("excel.application")
'vbs opens a file specified by the path below
Set ObjWB = ObjExcel.Workbooks.Open("C:\temp\rod.xlsm")
'either use the Workbook Open event (if macros are enabled), or Application.Run

ObjWB.Close False
ObjExcel.Quit
Set ObjExcel = Nothing

You see the two empty -D entries in the g++ command line? They're causing the problem. You must have values in the -D items e.g. -DWIN32

if you're insistent on using something like -D$(SYSTEM) -D$(ENVIRONMENT) then you can use something like:

SYSTEM ?= generic
ENVIRONMENT ?= generic

in the makefile which gives them default values.

Your output looks to be missing the all important output:

<command-line>:0:1: error: macro names must be identifiers
<command-line>:0:1: error: macro names must be identifiers

just to clarify, what actually got sent to g++ was -D -DWindows_NT, i.e. define a preprocessor macro called -DWindows_NT; which is of course not a valid identifier (similarly for -D -I.)

No, you have to use the underscore, but I believe that VB.NET 10 will allow multiple lines w/o the underscore, only requiring if it can't figure out where the end should be.

Couple of points:

• I believe git stash + git stash drop could be replaced with git reset --hard

• ... or, even shorter, add -f to checkout command:

  git checkout -f -b $branch
  

  That will discard any local changes, just as if git reset --hard was used prior to checkout.

As for the main question: instead of pulling in the last step, you could just merge the appropriate branch from the remote into your local branch: git merge $branch origin/$branch, I believe it does not hit the remote. If that is the case, it removes the need for credensials and hence, addresses your biggest concern.

You can create a common volume for all Postgres data

 docker volume create pgdata

or you can set it to the compose file

   version: "3"
   services:
     db:
       image: postgres
       environment:
         - POSTGRES_USER=postgres
         - POSTGRES_PASSWORD=postgress
         - POSTGRES_DB=postgres
       ports:
         - "5433:5432"
       volumes:
         - pgdata:/var/lib/postgresql/data
       networks:
         - suruse
   volumes: 
     pgdata:

It will create volume name pgdata and mount this volume to container's path.

You can inspect this volume

docker volume inspect pgdata

// output will be
[
    {
        "Driver": "local",
        "Labels": {},
        "Mountpoint": "/var/lib/docker/volumes/pgdata/_data",
        "Name": "pgdata",
        "Options": {},
        "Scope": "local"
    }
]

strcat concats str2 onto str1

You'll get runtime errors because str1 is not being properly allocated for concatenation

This should fix a few edge-cases in kobe's answer:

function getQueryParam(url, key) {
  var queryStartPos = url.indexOf('?');
  if (queryStartPos === -1) {
    return;
  }
  var params = url.substring(queryStartPos + 1).split('&');
  for (var i = 0; i < params.length; i++) {
    var pairs = params[i].split('=');
    if (decodeURIComponent(pairs.shift()) == key) {
      return decodeURIComponent(pairs.join('='));
    }
  }
}

getQueryParam('http://example.com/form_image_edit.php?img_id=33', 'img_id');
// outputs "33"

Try wih :

SELECT * FROM sys.dm_exec_requests where command like '%BACKUP%'

SELECT command, percent_complete, start_time FROM sys.dm_exec_requests where command like '%BACKUP%'

SELECT command, percent_complete,total_elapsed_time, estimated_completion_time, start_time
  FROM sys.dm_exec_requests
  WHERE command IN ('RESTORE DATABASE','BACKUP DATABASE')

I would not recommend utilizing the Grid system in this instance, as much as simply adding an increased padding for each <h2>. That being said, the way you would achieve this using col-*-offset-* would be as follows:

<div class="jumbotron">
    <div class="container">
        <div class="row">
            <div class="col-md-12">
                <h2>One</h2>
            </div>

            <div class="col-md-11 col-md-offset-1">
                <h2>Two</h2>
            </div>

            <div class="col-md-10 col-md-offset-2">
                <h2>Three</h2>
            </div>
        </div>
    </div>
</div>

Essentially the first line must span the entire row (so -12). The second line must be offset by 1 column, so you offset by 1 and give it a total width of 11 columns (11+1 = 12) and so forth. Your offset is always enough to ensure that the total column count equals 12.

I don't know how it works, but you can also use it to tab your values !

Example :

Console.WriteLine($"I can tab like {"this !", 5}.");

Of course, you can replace "this !" with any variable or anything meaningful, just as you can also change the tab.

simply use a 'script' tag with a dot after.

Delete the project named Servers (or Servers1, Servers2 which contains your server.xml), find it in Package Explorer(workspace)

Remove server from Eclipse : Go to Window > Preferences > Server > Runtime Environment, here remove the server your are using from eclipse and add it again(doing this will create a new Server project folder in Eclipse) ,

Remove server from Project : Also remove the server in your project(Build path > configuration path > Java Build path) and add again.

now you got a fresh Server project which will not have Multiple Context on its server.xml, only deleting duplicate path in server.xml solved the existing issue but still server dint start, by doing this Server started(Apache Tomcat v7) and worked normal

And I don't know whether this is good practice or not, I am a starter in programming.

I had the same problem, and this is how I fixed it. I was using the wrong port for my connection.

private final String DB_URL  = "jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:orcll"; // 1521 my wrong port

• go to your localhost

• (my localhost address) : https://localhost:1158/em

• login

  • user name
  • password
  • connect as --> normal

• Below 'General' click on LISTENER_localhost

• look at you port number
  • Net Address (ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=localhost)(PORT=1522)) Connect to port 1522

• Edit you connection change port 1521 to 1522.

  • done

You should go to Control Panel -> Programs and Features, find Microsoft Visual Studio 2015 and select "Change". Visual Studio 2015 setup will start. Select "Modify".

In Visual Studio components list, open the list of sub-items and select "ClickOnce Publication Tools" and "Windows 10 SDK" too.

I think that the the align="center" aligns the content, so if you wanted to use that method, you would need to use it in a 'wraper' div - a div that just wraps the rest.

text-align is doing a similar sort of thing.

left:50% is ignored unless you set the div's position to be something like relative or absolute.

The generally accepted methods is to use the following properties

width:500px; // this can be what ever unit you want, you just have to define it
margin-left:auto;
margin-right:auto;

the margins being auto means they grow/shrink to match the browser window (or parent div)

UPDATE

Thanks to Meo for poiting this out, if you wanted to you could save time and use the short hand propery for the margin.

margin:0 auto;

this defines the top and bottom as 0 (as it is zero it does not matter about lack of units) and the left and right get defined as 'auto' You can then, if you wan't override say the top margin as you would with any other CSS rules.

I prepared my commit that I wanted to amend with an older one and was surprised to see that rebase -i complained that I have uncommitted changes. But I didn't want to make my changes again specifying edit option of the older commit. So the solution was pretty easy and straightforward:

1. prepare your update to older commit, add it and commit
2. git rebase -i <commit you want to amend>^ - notice the ^ so you see the said commit in the text editor

3. you will get sometihng like this:

   pick 8c83e24 use substitution instead of separate subsystems file to avoid jgroups.xml and jgroups-e2.xml going out of sync
   pick 799ce28 generate ec2 configuration out of subsystems-ha.xml and subsystems-full-ha.xml to avoid discrepancies
   pick e23d23a fix indentation of jgroups.xml
   

4. now to combine e23d23a with 8c83e24 you can change line order and use squash like this:

   pick 8c83e24 use substitution instead of separate subsystems file to avoid jgroups.xml and jgroups-e2.xml going out of sync    
   squash e23d23a fix indentation of jgroups.xml
   pick 799ce28 generate ec2 configuration out of subsystems-ha.xml and subsystems-full-ha.xml to avoid discrepancies
   

5. write and exit the file, you will be present with an editor to merge the commit messages. Do so and save/exit the text document

6. You are done, your commits are amended

I have struggled to get a query to return fields from Table 1 that do not exist in Table 2 and tried most of the answers above until I found a very simple way to obtain the results that I wanted.

I set the join properties between table 1 and table 2 to the third setting (3) (All fields from Table 1 and only those records from Table 2 where the joined fields are equal) and placed a Is Null in the criteria field of the query in Table 2 in the field that I was testing for. It works perfectly.

Thanks to all above though.

There is a solution to create file (on external cache dir or anywhere else) and put this file's uri as output extra to camera intent - this will define path where taken picture will be stored.

Here is an example:

File file;
Uri fileUri;
final int RC_TAKE_PHOTO = 1;

    private void takePhoto() {
        Intent intent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
        file = new File(getActivity().getExternalCacheDir(), 
                String.valueOf(System.currentTimeMillis()) + ".jpg");
        fileUri = Uri.fromFile(file);
        intent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, fileUri);
        getActivity().startActivityForResult(intent, RC_TAKE_PHOTO);

    }


    @Override
    protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
        super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);

        if (requestCode == RC_TAKE_PHOTO && resultCode == RESULT_OK) {

                //do whatever you need with taken photo using file or fileUri

            }
        }
    }

Then if you don't need the file anymore, you can delete it using file.delete();

By the way, files from cache dir will be removed when user clears app's cache from apps settings.

Brief Solution:

The better approach is to replace all compile dependencies with implementation dependencies. And only where you leak a module’s interface, you should use api. That should cause a lot less recompilation.

 dependencies {
         implementation fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
 
         implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:25.4.0'
         implementation 'com.android.support.constraint:constraint-layout:1.0.2'
         // …
 
         testImplementation 'junit:junit:4.12'
         androidTestImplementation('com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-core:2.2.2', {
             exclude group: 'com.android.support', module: 'support-annotations'
         })
 }

Explain More:

Before Android Gradle plugin 3.0: we had a big problem which is one code change causes all modules to be recompiled. The root cause for this is that Gradle doesn’t know if you leak the interface of a module through another one or not.

After Android Gradle plugin 3.0: the latest Android Gradle plugin now requires you to explicitly define if you leak a module’s interface. Based on that it can make the right choice on what it should recompile.

As such the compile dependency has been deprecated and replaced by two new ones:

• api: you leak the interface of this module through your own interface, meaning exactly the same as the old compile dependency

• implementation: you only use this module internally and does not leak it through your interface

So now you can explicitly tell Gradle to recompile a module if the interface of a used module changes or not.

If you want to hide gridlines but want to show yAxes, you can set:

yAxes: [{...
         gridLines: {
                        drawBorder: true,
                        display: false
                    }
       }]

In Excel 2007 onwards, you can use the much simpler code using a more precise reference:

dim pvt as PivotTable
dim pvtField as PivotField

set pvt = ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable2")
set pvtField = pvt.PivotFields("SavedFamilyCode")

pvtField.PivotFilters.Add xlCaptionEquals, Value1:= "K123223"

First is latitude, second longitude. Different than many constructors in mapbox.

Here are examples of formats that work:

• Degrees, minutes, and seconds (DMS): 41°24'12.2"N 2°10'26.5"E
• Degrees and decimal minutes (DMM): 41 24.2028, 2 10.4418
• Decimal degrees (DD): 41.40338, 2.17403

Tips for formatting your coordinates

• Use the degree symbol instead of “d”.
• Use periods as decimals, not commas.
  • Incorrect: 41,40338, 2,17403.
  • Correct: 41.40338, 2.17403.
• List your latitude coordinates before longitude coordinates.
• Check that the first number in your latitude coordinate is between -90 and 90 and the first number in your longitude coordinate is between -180 and 180.

This is a really old answer and i didn't really found a proper solution to it, to the sole purpose of clearing the backStack, i decided to create my own backstack, which is not even a stack tbh, but it doesn't have to be, since we want to clear everything in it anyways;

Theres an overhead of handlind the backstack everytime, but it gave me the control i needed;

First Declare a public static List of Activities (or fragments, whatever you need);

public static ArrayList <Activity> backStack = new ArrayList<>();

And inside all other activity's onCreate method:

MainActivity.backStack.add(this);

And finally, when you want to clear the backstack, simply call:

public static void killBackStack () {
    for (Activity ac : backStack) {
        if (ac != null)
            ac.finish();
    }
}

Just to be a bit left handed...

x ? y : x = value

will assign value to y if x is not 0 (false).

Use [NSIndexPath indexPathForRow:inSection:] to quickly create an index path.

Edit: In Swift 3:

let indexPath = IndexPath(row: rowIndex, section: sectionIndex)

Swift 5

IndexPath(row: 0, section: 0)

To get a more precise (and user friendly) information about connection type. You can use this code (derived from a @hide method in TelephonyManager.java).

This method returns a String describing the current connection type.
i.e. one of : "WIFI" , "2G" , "3G" , "4G" , "5G" , "-" (not connected) or "?" (unknown)

Remark: This code requires API 25+, but you can easily support older versions by using int instead of const. (See comments in code).

public static String getNetworkClass(Context context) {
    ConnectivityManager cm = (ConnectivityManager) context.getSystemService(Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE);      
    NetworkInfo info = cm.getActiveNetworkInfo();
    if (info == null || !info.isConnected())
        return "-"; // not connected
    if (info.getType() == ConnectivityManager.TYPE_WIFI)
        return "WIFI";
    if (info.getType() == ConnectivityManager.TYPE_MOBILE) {
        int networkType = info.getSubtype();
        switch (networkType) {
            case TelephonyManager.NETWORK_TYPE_GPRS:
            case TelephonyManager.NETWORK_TYPE_EDGE:
            case TelephonyManager.NETWORK_TYPE_CDMA:
            case TelephonyManager.NETWORK_TYPE_1xRTT:
            case TelephonyManager.NETWORK_TYPE_IDEN:     // api< 8: replace by 11
            case TelephonyManager.NETWORK_TYPE_GSM:      // api<25: replace by 16
                return "2G";
            case TelephonyManager.NETWORK_TYPE_UMTS:
            case TelephonyManager.NETWORK_TYPE_EVDO_0:
            case TelephonyManager.NETWORK_TYPE_EVDO_A:
            case TelephonyManager.NETWORK_TYPE_HSDPA:
            case TelephonyManager.NETWORK_TYPE_HSUPA:
            case TelephonyManager.NETWORK_TYPE_HSPA:
            case TelephonyManager.NETWORK_TYPE_EVDO_B:   // api< 9: replace by 12
            case TelephonyManager.NETWORK_TYPE_EHRPD:    // api<11: replace by 14
            case TelephonyManager.NETWORK_TYPE_HSPAP:    // api<13: replace by 15
            case TelephonyManager.NETWORK_TYPE_TD_SCDMA: // api<25: replace by 17
                return "3G";
            case TelephonyManager.NETWORK_TYPE_LTE:      // api<11: replace by 13
            case TelephonyManager.NETWORK_TYPE_IWLAN:    // api<25: replace by 18
            case 19: // LTE_CA
                return "4G";
            case TelephonyManager.NETWORK_TYPE_NR:       // api<29: replace by 20
                return "5G";
            default:
                return "?";
         }
    }
    return "?";
}

I use them sometimes as a syntax hack for Map instantiation:

Map map = new HashMap() {{
   put("key", "value");
}};

vs

Map map = new HashMap();
map.put("key", "value");

It saves some redundancy when doing a lot of put statements. However, I have also run into problems doing this when the outer class needs to be serialized via remoting.

$.each(data,function(index,itemData){
    $('#dropListBuilding').append($("<option></option>")
        .attr("value",key)
        .text(value)); 
});

EDIT: When this answer was posted, {...obj} syntax was not available in most browsers. Nowadays, you should be fine using it (unless you need to support IE 11).

Use Object.assign.

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Object/assign

var obj = { a: 1 };
var copy = Object.assign({}, obj);
console.log(copy); // { a: 1 }

However, this won't make a deep clone. There is no native way of deep cloning as of yet.

EDIT: As @Mike 'Pomax' Kamermans mentioned in the comments, you can deep clone simple objects (ie. no prototypes, functions or circular references) using JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(input))

The below post gives the solution for your scenario.

dir /s /b /o:gn

/S Displays files in specified directory and all subdirectories.

/B Uses bare format (no heading information or summary).

/O List by files in sorted order.

Use this Script

exec sp_who

Find the dbname and spid column

now execute

kill spid 
go
ALTER DATABASE [DBName]
SET MULTI_USER;

Just a shorthand

$(document).ready(function() {
    $(".input").val("Email Address");
        $(".input").on("focus click", function(){
            $(this).val("");
        });
    });
</script>

The real problem is that you are using dynamic return type in the FacebookClient Get method. And although you use a method for serializing, the JSON converter cannot deserialize this Object after that.

Use insted of:

dynamic result = client.Get("fql", new { q = "select target_id,target_type from connection where source_id = me()"}); 
string jsonstring = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(result);

something like that:

string result = client.Get("fql", new { q = "select target_id,target_type from connection where source_id = me()"}).ToString();

Then you can use DeserializeObject method:

var datalist = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<List<RootObject>>(result);

Hope this helps.

As mentioned by others, this is because the loader can't be found, not your executable file. Unfortunately the message is not clear enough.

You can fix it by changing the loader that your executable uses, see my thorough answer in this other question: Multiple glibc libraries on a single host

Basically you have to find which loader it's trying to use:

$ readelf -l arm-mingw32ce-g++ | grep interpreter
  [Requesting program interpreter: /lib/ld-linux.so.2]

Then find the right path for an equivalent loader, and change your executable to use the loader from the path that it really is:

$ ./patchelf --set-interpreter /path/to/newglibc/ld-linux.so.2 arm-mingw32ce-g++

You will probably need to set the path of the includes too, you will know if you want it or not after you try to run it. See all the details in that other thread.

You can get path by this code

Dim CurDir as string = My.Application.Info.DirectoryPath

In your case don't need casting, you need call toString().

Integer i = 33;
String s = i.toString();
//or
s = String.valueOf(i);
//or
s = "" + i;

Casting. How does it work?

Given:

class A {}
class B extends A {}

(A)
  |
(B)

B b = new B(); //no cast
A a = b;  //upcast with no explicit cast
a = (A)b; //upcast with an explicit cast
b = (B)a; //downcast

A and B in the same inheritance tree and we can this:

a = new A();
b = (B)a;  // again downcast. Compiles but fails later, at runtime: java.lang.ClassCastException

The compiler must allow things that might possibly work at runtime. However, if the compiler knows with 100% that the cast couldn't possibly work, compilation will fail.
Given:

class A {}
class B1 extends A {}
class B2 extends A {}

        (A)
      /       \
(B1)       (B2)

B1 b1 = new B1();
B2 b2 = (B2)b1; // B1 can't ever be a B2

Error: Inconvertible types B1 and B2. The compiler knows with 100% that the cast couldn't possibly work. But you can cheat the compiler:

B2 b2 = (B2)(A)b1;

but anyway at runtime:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ClassCastException: B1 cannot be cast to B2

in your case:

          (Object)
            /       \
(Integer)       (String)

Integer i = 33;
//String s = (String)i; - compiler error
String s = (String)(Object)i;

at runtime: Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.Integer cannot be cast to java.lang.String

If you're using Microsoft's C++ compiler, then you could do the following:

struct __declspec(novtable) IFoo
{
    virtual void Bar() = 0;
};

class Child : public IFoo
{
public:
    virtual void Bar() override { /* Do Something */ }
}

I like this approach because it results in a lot smaller interface code and the generated code size can be significantly smaller. The use of novtable removes all reference to the vtable pointer in that class, so you can never instantiate it directly. See the documentation here - novtable.

In addition to S.Lott's answer and as becomingGuru mentioned in comments, its possible to add the queryset filters by overriding the ModelForm.__init__ function. (This could easily apply to regular forms) it can help with reuse and keeps the view function tidy.

class ClientForm(forms.ModelForm):
    def __init__(self,company,*args,**kwargs):
        super (ClientForm,self ).__init__(*args,**kwargs) # populates the post
        self.fields['rate'].queryset = Rate.objects.filter(company=company)
        self.fields['client'].queryset = Client.objects.filter(company=company)

    class Meta:
        model = Client

def addclient(request, company_id):
        the_company = get_object_or_404(Company, id=company_id)

        if request.POST:
            form = ClientForm(the_company,request.POST)  #<-- Note the extra arg
            if form.is_valid():
                form.save()
                return HttpResponseRedirect(the_company.get_clients_url())
        else:
            form = ClientForm(the_company)

        return render_to_response('addclient.html', 
                                  {'form': form, 'the_company':the_company})

This can be useful for reuse say if you have common filters needed on many models (normally I declare an abstract Form class). E.g.

class UberClientForm(ClientForm):
    class Meta:
        model = UberClient

def view(request):
    ...
    form = UberClientForm(company)
    ...

#or even extend the existing custom init
class PITAClient(ClientForm):
    def __init__(company, *args, **args):
        super (PITAClient,self ).__init__(company,*args,**kwargs)
        self.fields['support_staff'].queryset = User.objects.exclude(user='michael')

Other than that I'm just restating Django blog material of which there are many good ones out there.

In case anybody else falls onto this page, you can also solve this by using the Ip address in the URL request instead of the domain:

NSURL *myURL = [NSURL URLWithString:@"http://10.0.0.2/mypage.php"];

Then you specify the Host manually:

NSMutableURLRequest *request = [NSMutableURLRequest requestWithURL:myURL];
[request setAllHTTPHeaderFields:[NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectAndKeys:@"myserver",@"Host"]];

As far as the server is concerned, it will behave the exact same way as if you had used http://myserver/mypage.php, except that the iPhone will not have to do a DNS lookup.

Actually it's possible, despite what's being said in other answers. If you have a FrameLayout, and want to position a child item to the bottom, you can use android:layout_gravity="bottom" and that is going to align that child to the bottom of the FrameLayout.

I know it works because I'm using it. I know is late, but it might come handy to others since this ranks in the top positions on google

I wrote a package for that purpose. You can use it as express middleware. My package is published here: https://www.npmjs.com/package/express-ip

You can install the module using

npm i express-ip

Usage

const express = require('express');
const app = express();
const expressip = require('express-ip');
app.use(expressip().getIpInfoMiddleware);

app.get('/', function (req, res) {
    console.log(req.ipInfo);
});

Based on Alex answer above (https://stackoverflow.com/a/11022431/1466341) I came up with even better solution. Solution which doesn't contain exact one record ID.

Assuming that the comma separated list is in table data.list, and it contains listing of codes from other table classification.code, you can do something like:

SELECT 
    d.id, d.list, c.code
FROM 
    classification c
    JOIN data d
        ON d.list REGEXP CONCAT('[[:<:]]', c.code, '[[:>:]]');

So if you have tables and data like this:

CLASSIFICATION (code varchar(4) unique): ('A'), ('B'), ('C'), ('D')
MY_DATA (id int, list varchar(255)): (100, 'C,A,B'), (150, 'B,A,D'), (200,'B')

above SELECT will return

(100, 'C,A,B', 'A'),
(100, 'C,A,B', 'B'),
(100, 'C,A,B', 'C'),
(150, 'B,A,D', 'A'),
(150, 'B,A,D', 'B'),
(150, 'B,A,D', 'D'),
(200, 'B', 'B'),

Flat files do not allow providing meta information.

I would suggest writing out a HTML table containing the information you need, and let Excel read it instead. You can then use <b> tags to do what you ask for.

If you're not too bothered about the width of the padding, this solution will actually keep the padding in percentages too..

textarea
{
    border:1px solid #999999;
    width:98%;
    margin:5px 0;
    padding:1%;
}

Not perfect, but you'll get some padding and the width adds up to 100% so its all good

In addition to the answer of Dyppl, I think it would be nice to place this inside the OnDataContextChanged event:

private void OnDataContextChanged(object sender, DependencyPropertyChangedEventArgs e)
{
    // Unforunately we cannot bind from the viewmodel to the code behind so easily, the dependency property is not available in XAML. (for some reason).
    // To work around this, we create the binding once we get the viewmodel through the datacontext.
    var newViewModel = e.NewValue as MyViewModel;

    var executablePathBinding = new Binding
    {
        Source = newViewModel,
        Path = new PropertyPath(nameof(newViewModel.ExecutablePath))
    };

    BindingOperations.SetBinding(LayoutRoot, ExecutablePathProperty, executablePathBinding);
}

We have also had cases were we just saved the DataContext to a local property and used that to access viewmodel properties. The choice is of course yours, I like this approach because it is more consistent with the rest. You can also add some validation, like null checks. If you actually change your DataContext around, I think it would be nice to also call:

BindingOperations.ClearBinding(myText, TextBlock.TextProperty);

to clear the binding of the old viewmodel (e.oldValue in the event handler).

Just create .gitignore file in your project folder Then add the name of the folder in it for ex:

frontend/node_modules

Use a native SQL query by specifying a @NamedNativeQuery annotation on the entity class, or by using the EntityManager.createNativeQuery method. You will need to specify the type of the ResultSet using an appropriate class, or use a ResultSet mapping.

In swift...

This is inclusive, calling random(1,2) will return a 1 or a 2, This will also work with negative numbers.

    func random(min: Int, _ max: Int) -> Int {
        guard min < max else {return min}
        return Int(arc4random_uniform(UInt32(1 + max - min))) + min
    }

To do this, you can set a callback function for the animate command which will execute after the scroll animation has finished.

For example:

var body = $("html, body");
body.stop().animate({scrollTop:0}, 500, 'swing', function() { 
   alert("Finished animating");
});

Where that alert code is, you can execute more javascript to add in further animation.

Also, the 'swing' is there to set the easing. Check out http://api.jquery.com/animate/ for more info.

In all filesystems that I am familiar with, you can't do this in-place. You have to use an auxiliary file (which you can then rename to take the name of the original file).

HTML

<input type="text" name="fieldName" id="fieldSelectorId">

This field only takes at max 10 digits number and do n't accept zero as the first digit.

JQuery

jQuery(document).ready(function () {
      jQuery("#fieldSelectorId").keypress(function (e) {
         var length = jQuery(this).val().length;
       if(length > 9) {
            return false;
       } else if(e.which != 8 && e.which != 0 && (e.which < 48 || e.which > 57)) {
            return false;
       } else if((length == 0) && (e.which == 48)) {
            return false;
       }
      });
    });

Before going into the details of descriptors it may be important to know how attribute lookup in Python works. This assumes that the class has no metaclass and that it uses the default implementation of __getattribute__ (both can be used to "customize" the behavior).

The best illustration of attribute lookup (in Python 3.x or for new-style classes in Python 2.x) in this case is from Understanding Python metaclasses (ionel's codelog). The image uses : as substitute for "non-customizable attribute lookup".

This represents the lookup of an attribute foobar on an instance of Class:

Two conditions are important here:

• If the class of instance has an entry for the attribute name and it has __get__ and __set__.
• If the instance has no entry for the attribute name but the class has one and it has __get__.

That's where descriptors come into it:

• Data descriptors which have both __get__ and __set__.
• Non-data descriptors which only have __get__.

In both cases the returned value goes through __get__ called with the instance as first argument and the class as second argument.

The lookup is even more complicated for class attribute lookup (see for example Class attribute lookup (in the above mentioned blog)).

Let's move to your specific questions:

Why do I need the descriptor class?

In most cases you don't need to write descriptor classes! However you're probably a very regular end user. For example functions. Functions are descriptors, that's how functions can be used as methods with self implicitly passed as first argument.

def test_function(self):
    return self

class TestClass(object):
    def test_method(self):
        ...

If you look up test_method on an instance you'll get back a "bound method":

>>> instance = TestClass()
>>> instance.test_method
<bound method TestClass.test_method of <__main__.TestClass object at ...>>

Similarly you could also bind a function by invoking its __get__ method manually (not really recommended, just for illustrative purposes):

>>> test_function.__get__(instance, TestClass)
<bound method test_function of <__main__.TestClass object at ...>>

You can even call this "self-bound method":

>>> test_function.__get__(instance, TestClass)()
<__main__.TestClass at ...>

Note that I did not provide any arguments and the function did return the instance I had bound!

Functions are Non-data descriptors!

Some built-in examples of a data-descriptor would be property. Neglecting getter, setter, and deleter the property descriptor is (from Descriptor HowTo Guide "Properties"):

class Property(object):
    def __init__(self, fget=None, fset=None, fdel=None, doc=None):
        self.fget = fget
        self.fset = fset
        self.fdel = fdel
        if doc is None and fget is not None:
            doc = fget.__doc__
        self.__doc__ = doc

    def __get__(self, obj, objtype=None):
        if obj is None:
            return self
        if self.fget is None:
            raise AttributeError("unreadable attribute")
        return self.fget(obj)

    def __set__(self, obj, value):
        if self.fset is None:
            raise AttributeError("can't set attribute")
        self.fset(obj, value)

    def __delete__(self, obj):
        if self.fdel is None:
            raise AttributeError("can't delete attribute")
        self.fdel(obj)

Since it's a data descriptor it's invoked whenever you look up the "name" of the property and it simply delegates to the functions decorated with @property, @name.setter, and @name.deleter (if present).

There are several other descriptors in the standard library, for example staticmethod, classmethod.

The point of descriptors is easy (although you rarely need them): Abstract common code for attribute access. property is an abstraction for instance variable access, function provides an abstraction for methods, staticmethod provides an abstraction for methods that don't need instance access and classmethod provides an abstraction for methods that need class access rather than instance access (this is a bit simplified).

Another example would be a class property.

One fun example (using __set_name__ from Python 3.6) could also be a property that only allows a specific type:

class TypedProperty(object):
    __slots__ = ('_name', '_type')
    def __init__(self, typ):
        self._type = typ

    def __get__(self, instance, klass=None):
        if instance is None:
            return self
        return instance.__dict__[self._name]

    def __set__(self, instance, value):
        if not isinstance(value, self._type):
            raise TypeError(f"Expected class {self._type}, got {type(value)}")
        instance.__dict__[self._name] = value

    def __delete__(self, instance):
        del instance.__dict__[self._name]

    def __set_name__(self, klass, name):
        self._name = name

Then you can use the descriptor in a class:

class Test(object):
    int_prop = TypedProperty(int)

And playing a bit with it:

>>> t = Test()
>>> t.int_prop = 10
>>> t.int_prop
10

>>> t.int_prop = 20.0
TypeError: Expected class <class 'int'>, got <class 'float'>

Or a "lazy property":

class LazyProperty(object):
    __slots__ = ('_fget', '_name')
    def __init__(self, fget):
        self._fget = fget

    def __get__(self, instance, klass=None):
        if instance is None:
            return self
        try:
            return instance.__dict__[self._name]
        except KeyError:
            value = self._fget(instance)
            instance.__dict__[self._name] = value
            return value

    def __set_name__(self, klass, name):
        self._name = name

class Test(object):
    @LazyProperty
    def lazy(self):
        print('calculating')
        return 10

>>> t = Test()
>>> t.lazy
calculating
10
>>> t.lazy
10

These are cases where moving the logic into a common descriptor might make sense, however one could also solve them (but maybe with repeating some code) with other means.

What is instance and owner here? (in __get__). What is the purpose of these parameters?

It depends on how you look up the attribute. If you look up the attribute on an instance then:

• the second argument is the instance on which you look up the attribute
• the third argument is the class of the instance

In case you look up the attribute on the class (assuming the descriptor is defined on the class):

• the second argument is None
• the third argument is the class where you look up the attribute

So basically the third argument is necessary if you want to customize the behavior when you do class-level look-up (because the instance is None).

How would I call/use this example?

Your example is basically a property that only allows values that can be converted to float and that is shared between all instances of the class (and on the class - although one can only use "read" access on the class otherwise you would replace the descriptor instance):

>>> t1 = Temperature()
>>> t2 = Temperature()

>>> t1.celsius = 20   # setting it on one instance
>>> t2.celsius        # looking it up on another instance
20.0

>>> Temperature.celsius  # looking it up on the class
20.0

That's why descriptors generally use the second argument (instance) to store the value to avoid sharing it. However in some cases sharing a value between instances might be desired (although I cannot think of a scenario at this moment). However it makes practically no sense for a celsius property on a temperature class... except maybe as purely academic exercise.

[function.fopen]: failed to open stream

If you have access to your php.ini file, try enabling Fopen. Find the respective line and set it to be "on": & if in wp e.g localhost/wordpress/function.fopen in the php.ini :

allow_url_fopen = off
should bee this 
allow_url_fopen = On

And add this line below it:
allow_url_include = off
should bee this 
allow_url_include = on

static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        Console.WriteLine("geef een leeftijd");
        int a = Convert.ToInt32(Console.ReadLine());

        Console.WriteLine("geef een leeftijd");
        int b = Convert.ToInt32(Console.ReadLine());

        int einde = Sum(a, b);
        Console.WriteLine(einde);
    }
    static int Sum(int x, int y)

I ran into this same problem when I wanted to enable SSL to a project hosted on IIS 8. Finally the tool I used was OpenSSL, after many days fighting with makecert commands.The certificate is generated in Debian, but I could import it seamlessly into IIS 7 and 8.

Download the OpenSSL compatible with your OS and this configuration file. Set the configuration file as default configuration of OpenSSL.

First we will generate the private key and certificate of Certification Authority (CA). This certificate is to sign the certificate request (CSR).

You must complete all fields that are required in this process.

1. openssl req -new -x509 -days 3650 -extensions v3_ca -keyout root-cakey.pem -out root-cacert.pem -newkey rsa:4096

You can create a configuration file with default settings like this: Now we will generate the certificate request, which is the file that is sent to the Certification Authorities.

The Common Name must be set the domain of your site, for example: public.organization.com.

2. openssl req -new -nodes -out server-csr.pem -keyout server-key.pem -newkey rsa:4096

Now the certificate request is signed with the generated CA certificate.

3. openssl x509 -req -days 365 -CA root-cacert.pem -CAkey root-cakey.pem -CAcreateserial -in server-csr.pem -out server-cert.pem

The generated certificate must be exported to a .pfx file that can be imported into the IIS.

4. openssl pkcs12 -export -out server-cert.pfx -inkey server-key.pem -in server-cert.pem -certfile root-cacert.pem -name "Self Signed Server Certificate"

In this step we will import the certificate CA.

5. In your server must import the CA certificate to the Trusted Root Certification Authorities, for IIS can trust the certificate to be imported. Remember that the certificate to be imported into the IIS, has been signed with the certificate of the CA.

   • Open Command Prompt and type mmc.
   • Click on File.
   • Select Add/Remove Snap in....
   • Double click on Certificates.
   • Select Computer Account and Next ->.
   • Select Local Computer and Finish.
   • Ok.
   • Go to Certificates -> Trusted Root Certification Authorities -> Certificates, rigth click on Certificates and select All Tasks -> Import ...

• Select Next -> Browse ...
• You must select All Files to browse the location of root-cacert.pem file.
• Click on Next and select Place all certificates in the following store: Trusted Root Certification Authorities.
• Click on Next and Finish.

With this step, the IIS trust on the authenticity of our certificate.

6. In our last step we will import the certificate to IIS and add the binding site.

   • Open Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager or type inetmgr on command prompt and go to Server Certificates.
   • Click on Import....
   • Set the path of .pfx file, the passphrase and Select certificate store on Web Hosting.

• Click on OK.

• Now go to your site on IIS Manager and select Bindings... and Add a new binding.

• Select https as the type of binding and you should be able to see the imported certificate.

• Click on OK and all is done.

Using Named Function Expressions:

You can give a function expression a name that is actually private and is only visible from inside of the function ifself:

var factorial = function myself (n) {
    if (n <= 1) {
        return 1;
    }
    return n * myself(n-1);
}
typeof myself === 'undefined'

Here myself is visible only inside of the function itself.

You can use this private name to call the function recursively.

See 13. Function Definition of the ECMAScript 5 spec:

The Identifier in a FunctionExpression can be referenced from inside the FunctionExpression's FunctionBody to allow the function to call itself recursively. However, unlike in a FunctionDeclaration, the Identifier in a FunctionExpression cannot be referenced from and does not affect the scope enclosing the FunctionExpression.

Please note that Internet Explorer up to version 8 doesn't behave correctly as the name is actually visible in the enclosing variable environment, and it references a duplicate of the actual function (see patrick dw's comment below).

Using arguments.callee:

Alternatively you could use arguments.callee to refer to the current function:

var factorial = function (n) {
    if (n <= 1) {
        return 1;
    }
    return n * arguments.callee(n-1);
}

The 5th edition of ECMAScript forbids use of arguments.callee() in strict mode, however:

(From MDN): In normal code arguments.callee refers to the enclosing function. This use case is weak: simply name the enclosing function! Moreover, arguments.callee substantially hinders optimizations like inlining functions, because it must be made possible to provide a reference to the un-inlined function if arguments.callee is accessed. arguments.callee for strict mode functions is a non-deletable property which throws when set or retrieved.

Another way to check on connection attempts is to look at the server's event log. On my Windows 2008 R2 Enterprise machine I opened the server manager (right-click on Computer and select Manage. Then choose Diagnostics -> Event Viewer -> Windows Logs -> Applcation. You can filter the log to isolate the MSSQLSERVER events. I found a number that looked like this

Login failed for user 'bogus'. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection. [CLIENT: 10.12.3.126]

Warning: Don't do this if you've already pushed

You want to do:

git reset HEAD~

If you don't want the changes and blow everything away:

git reset --hard HEAD~

Although using const to define functions seems like a hack, but it comes with some great advantages that make it superior (in my opinion)

1. It makes the function immutable, so you don't have to worry about that function being changed by some other piece of code.

2. You can use fat arrow syntax, which is shorter & cleaner.

3. Using arrow functions takes care of this binding for you.

example with function

// define a function_x000D_
function add(x, y) { return x + y; }_x000D_
_x000D_
// use it_x000D_
console.log(add(1, 2)); // 3_x000D_
_x000D_
// oops, someone mutated your function_x000D_
add = function (x, y) { return x - y; };_x000D_
_x000D_
// now this is not what you expected_x000D_
console.log(add(1, 2)); // -1

same example with const

// define a function (wow! that is 8 chars shorter)_x000D_
const add = (x, y) => x + y;_x000D_
_x000D_
// use it_x000D_
console.log(add(1, 2)); // 3_x000D_
_x000D_
// someone tries to mutate the function_x000D_
add = (x, y) => x - y; // Uncaught TypeError: Assignment to constant variable._x000D_
// the intruder fails and your function remains unchanged

Seems the SMTP as internet standard uses only reliable Transport protocol. RFC821 has TCP, NCP, NITS as examples!

A very easy solution worked for me:

  if (62 % 50 != 0) {
      var number = 62 / 50 + 1 // adding 1 is doing the actual "round up"
  }

number contains value 2

Logging has different levels such as :
Trace – A fine-grained debug message, typically capturing the flow through the application. Debug- A general debugging event should be logged under this.
ALL – All events could be logged.
INFO- An informational purpose, information written in plain english.
Warn- An event that might possible lead to an error.
Error- An error in the application, possibly recoverable.

Logging captured with debug level is information helpful to developers as well as other personnel, so it captures in broad range. If your code doesn't have exception or errors then you should be alright to use DEBUG level of logging, otherwise you should carefully choose options.

Whilst not a description of the differences, below are a couple of things to think about when choosing the correct method.

• GET requests can get cached by the browser which can be a problem (or benefit) when using ajax.
• GET requests expose parameters to users (POST does as well but they are less visible).
• POST can pass much more information to the server and can be of almost any length.

If you are interested in now only, then simply use:

Date d = new Date();

a[len(a):] - This gets you the length of a to the end. It selects a range. If you reverse a[:len(a)] it will get you the beginning to whatever is len(a).

Maybe the uuid module?

If you want to put a view in the center of parent, you can do with following code..

public class myLayout extends LinearLayout {

    public myLayout(Context context) {
      super(context);

      RelativeLayout vi = (RelativeLayout) ((LayoutInflater) context
            .getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE)).inflate(
            R.layout.activity_main, null);
      LinearLayout.LayoutParams cc = new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(
            LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
      cc.gravity = Gravity.CENTER;
      this.setGravity(Gravity.CENTER);
      this.addView(vi);
  }
}

these code section make LinearLayout put the first view elements in the center of parent. So, we system don't consider the initial width and high to arrange view in the center . I do the code section well.

PHP allows "hinting" where you supply a class to specify an object. According to the PHP manual, "Type Hints can only be of the object and array (since PHP 5.1) type. Traditional type hinting with int and string isn't supported." The error is confusing because of your choice of "string" - put "myClass" in its place and the error will read differently: "Argument 1 passed to phpwtf() must be an instance of myClass, string given"

change your code to:

function ChangePurpose(Vid, PurId) {
    var Success = false;
    $.ajax({
        type: "POST",
        url: "CHService.asmx/SavePurpose",
        dataType: "text",
        async: false,
        data: JSON.stringify({ Vid: Vid, PurpId: PurId }),
        contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
        success: function (data) {
            Success = true;
        },
        error: function (textStatus, errorThrown) {
            Success = false;
        }
    });
    //done after here
    return Success;
} 

You can only return the values from a synchronous function. Otherwise you will have to make a callback.

So I just added async:false, to your ajax call

Update:

jquery ajax calls are asynchronous by default. So success & error functions will be called when the ajax load is complete. But your return statement will be executed just after the ajax call is started.

A better approach will be:

     // callbackfn is the pointer to any function that needs to be called
     function ChangePurpose(Vid, PurId, callbackfn) {
        var Success = false;
        $.ajax({
            type: "POST",
            url: "CHService.asmx/SavePurpose",
            dataType: "text",
            data: JSON.stringify({ Vid: Vid, PurpId: PurId }),

Yes, you should start with Java SE. Java EE is for web applications and Java ME is for mobile applications--both of these build off of SE.

You will use the following query:

SELECT * FROM [table] GROUP BY NUMBER;

Where [table] is the name of the table.

This provides a unique listing for the NUMBER column however the other columns may be meaningless depending on the vendor implementation; which is to say they may not together correspond to a specific row or rows.

Had the same problem for few days. Found a solution at last. The PHP server returned some unseen characters which you could not see in the LOG or in System.out.

So the solution was that i tried to substring my json String one by one and when i came to substring(3) the error went away.

BTW. i used UTF-8 encoding on both sides. PHP side: header('Content-type=application/json; charset=utf-8');

JAVA side: BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is, "utf-8"), 8);

So try the solution one by one 1,2,3,4...! Hope it helps you guys!

try {
            jObj = new JSONObject(json.substring(3));
        } catch (JSONException e) {
            Log.e("JSON Parser", "Error parsing data [" + e.getMessage()+"] "+json);
        }

Both accepted answer and Logical Processing Order explain why you could not do what you proposed.

Possible solution:

• use derived table (cte/subquery)
• use expression in WHERE
• create view/computed column

From SQL Server 2008 you could use APPLY operator combined with Table valued Constructor:

SELECT *, s.distance
FROM poi_table 
CROSS APPLY (VALUES(6371*1000*acos(cos(radians(42.3936868308))*cos(radians(lat))*cos(radians(lon)-radians(-72.5277256966))+sin(radians(42.3936868308))*sin(radians(lat))))) AS s(distance)
WHERE distance < 500;

It is commonly agreed that primary keys should be immutable (or as stable as possible since immutability can not be enforced in the DB). While there is nothing that will prevent you from updating a primary key (except integrity constraint), it may not be a good idea:

From a performance point of view:

• You will need to update all foreign keys that reference the updated key. A single update can lead to the update of potentially lots of tables/rows.
• If the foreign keys are unindexed (!!) you will have to maintain a lock on the children table to ensure integrity. Oracle will only hold the lock for a short time but still, this is scary.
• If your foreign keys are indexed (as they should be), the update will lead to the update of the index (delete+insert in the index structure), this is generally more expensive than the actual update of the base table.
• In ORGANIZATION INDEX tables (in other RDBMS, see clustered primary key), the rows are physically sorted by the primary key. A logical update will result in a physical delete+insert (more expensive)

Other considerations:

• If this key is referenced in any external system (application cache, another DB, export...), the reference will be broken upon update.
• additionaly, some RDBMS don't support CASCADE UPDATE, in particular Oracle.

In conclusion, during design, it is generally safer to use a surrogate key in lieu of a natural primary key that is supposed not to change -- but may eventually need to be updated because of changed requirements or even data entry error.

If you absolutely have to update a primary key with children table, see this post by Tom Kyte for a solution.

I typically use

:%s/\r/\r/g

which seems a little odd, but works because of the way that Vim matches linefeeds. I also find it easier to remember :)

Same error on MacOS 10.13

/usr/local/include and /usr/local/ /usr/lib were not created. I manually created and brew link finally worked.

It's nano seconds, what are the chances of getting the same seed twice.
Anyway, thanks for the help, here is my end solution based on all the input.

package main

import (
    "math/rand"
    "time"
)

func init() {
    rand.Seed(time.Now().UTC().UnixNano())
}

// generates a random string
func srand(min, max int, readable bool) string {

    var length int
    var char string

    if min < max {
        length = min + rand.Intn(max-min)
    } else {
        length = min
    }

    if readable == false {
        char = "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789"
    } else {
        char = "ABCDEFHJLMNQRTUVWXYZabcefghijkmnopqrtuvwxyz23479"
    }

    buf := make([]byte, length)
    for i := 0; i < length; i++ {
        buf[i] = char[rand.Intn(len(char)-1)]
    }
    return string(buf)
}

// For testing only
func main() {
    println(srand(5, 5, true))
    println(srand(5, 5, true))
    println(srand(5, 5, true))
    println(srand(5, 5, false))
    println(srand(5, 7, true))
    println(srand(5, 10, false))
    println(srand(5, 50, true))
    println(srand(5, 10, false))
    println(srand(5, 50, true))
    println(srand(5, 10, false))
    println(srand(5, 50, true))
    println(srand(5, 10, false))
    println(srand(5, 50, true))
    println(srand(5, 4, true))
    println(srand(5, 400, true))
    println(srand(6, 5, true))
    println(srand(6, 5, true))
    println(srand(6, 5, true))
    println(srand(6, 5, true))
    println(srand(6, 5, true))
    println(srand(6, 5, true))
    println(srand(6, 5, true))
    println(srand(6, 5, true))
    println(srand(6, 5, true))
    println(srand(6, 5, true))
    println(srand(6, 5, true))
    println(srand(6, 5, true))
}

I'd suggest to look at the Selenium API to see how they trigger a click on an element in a browser-compatible manner:

• selenium-browserbot.js

Look for the BrowserBot.prototype.triggerMouseEvent function.

If you're using Eclipse PDT, this is done by opening up the PHP explorer view, then clicking the upside-down triangle in the top-right of that window. A context window appears, and the filters option is available there. Clicking the Filters menu option opens a new window, where .* files can be unchecked, thus allowing the editing of .htaccess files.

I searched forever for this, so I'm sorta answering my own question here. I'm sure someone else will have the same problem too, so I hope this helps someone else as well.

Their synchronization semantics are very different:

• mutexes allow serialization of access to a given resource i.e. multiple threads wait for a lock, one at a time and as previously said, the thread owns the lock until it is done: only this particular thread can unlock it.
• a binary semaphore is a counter with value 0 and 1: a task blocking on it until any task does a sem_post. The semaphore advertises that a resource is available, and it provides the mechanism to wait until it is signaled as being available.

As such one can see a mutex as a token passed from task to tasks and a semaphore as traffic red-light (it signals someone that it can proceed).

def valid = pointAddress.findAll { a ->
    validPointTypes.any { a.contains(it) }
}

Should do it

The possible reason can also be that you have not inherited Controller from ApiController. Happened with me took a while to understand the same.

This way works fine for me:

var request = new RestSharp.RestRequest("RESOURCE", RestSharp.Method.POST) { RequestFormat = RestSharp.DataFormat.Json }
                .AddBody(BODY);

var response = Client.Execute(request);

// Handle response errors
HandleResponseErrors(response);

if (Errors.Length == 0)
{ }
else
{ }

Hope this helps! (Although it is a bit late)

You can use this code to find HyperLink in GridView. Use of e.Row.Cells[0].Controls[0] to find First position of control in GridView.

protected void AspGrid_RowDataBound(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e)
{    
  if(e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow)
    {
        DataRowView v = (DataRowView)e.Row.DataItem;           

        if (e.Row.Cells.Count > 0 && e.Row.Cells[0] != null && e.Row.Cells[0].Controls.Count > 0)
        {
            HyperLink link = e.Row.Cells[0].Controls[0] as HyperLink;
            if (link != null)
            {                    
                    link.Text = "Edit";
            }               
        }       

    }
}

Since 2.5 you can use equivalent of C’s ”?:” ternary conditional operator and the syntax is:

[on_true] if [expression] else [on_false]

So your example is fine, but you've to simply add else, like:

print a if b else ''

I found this question in looking for my own solution to a very complex join. This is an alternative solution, to a more complex version of the problem, which I thought might be useful.

I needed to populate the product_id field in the activities table, where activities are numbered in a unit, and units are numbered in a level (identified using a string ??N), such that one can identify activities using an SKU ie L1U1A1. Those SKUs are then stored in a different table.

I identified the following to get a list of activity_id vs product_id:-

SELECT a.activity_id, w.product_id 
  FROM activities a 
  JOIN units USING(unit_id) 
  JOIN product_types USING(product_type_id) 
  JOIN web_products w 
    ON sku=CONCAT('L',SUBSTR(product_type_code,3), 'U',unit_index, 'A',activity_index)

I found that that was too complex to incorporate into a SELECT within mysql, so I created a temporary table, and joined that with the update statement:-

CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE activity_product_ids AS (<the above select statement>);

UPDATE activities a
  JOIN activity_product_ids b
    ON a.activity_id=b.activity_id 
  SET a.product_id=b.product_id;

I hope someone finds this useful

with gitbach line commande, use git update-ref to update reference of your local branch:

$ git update-ref -d refs/remotes/origin/[locked branch name]

then pull using $ git pull

[locked branch name] is the name of the branch that the error is happening because of mismatch of commit Ids.

You can truncate all information after the month using date_trunc(text, timestamp):

select date_trunc('month',created_at)::date as date 
from orders 
order by date DESC;

created_at = '2019-12-16 18:28:13'

Output 1:

date_trunc('day',created_at)
// 2019-12-16 00:00:00

Output 2:

date_trunc('day',created_at)::date 
// 2019-12-16

Output 3:

date_trunc('month',created_at)::date 
// 2019-12-01

Output 4:

date_trunc('year',created_at)::date 
// 2019-01-01

Or if it's from a database context you can use

@Html.DropDownListFor(model => model.MyOption, db.MyOptions.Select(x => new SelectListItem { Text = x.Name, Value = x.Id.ToString() }))

If you select the input by the id and then add the input[readonly="readonly"] tag in the css, something like:

 #inputID input[readonly="readonly"] {
     background-color: #000000;
 }

That will not work. You have to select a parent class or id an then the input. Something like:

 .parentClass, #parentID input[readonly="readonly"] {
     background-color: #000000;
 }

My 2 cents while waiting for new tickets at work :D

When you use df.apply(), each row of your DataFrame will be passed to your lambda function as a pandas Series. The frame's columns will then be the index of the series and you can access values using series[label].

So this should work:

df['D'] = (df.apply(lambda x: myfunc(x[colNames[0]], x[colNames[1]]), axis=1)) 

Here's my attempt, it doesn't follow your specs exactly though. Not fully tested, so be cautious.

Is the name of your service class really IService (on the Service namespace)? What you probably had originally was a mismatch in the name of the service class in the name attribute of the <service> element.

Your code "for /f "tokens=* delims=" %%x in (a.txt) do echo %%x" will work on most Windows Operating Systems unless you have modified commands.

So you could instead "cd" into the directory to read from before executing the "for /f" command to follow out the string. For instance if the file "a.txt" is located at C:\documents and settings\%USERNAME%\desktop\a.txt then you'd use the following.

cd "C:\documents and settings\%USERNAME%\desktop"
for /f "tokens=* delims=" %%x in (a.txt) do echo %%x
echo.
echo.
echo.
pause >nul
exit

But since this doesn't work on your computer for x reason there is an easier and more efficient way of doing this. Using the "type" command.

@echo off
color a
cls
cd "C:\documents and settings\%USERNAME%\desktop"
type a.txt
echo.
echo.
pause >nul
exit

Or if you'd like them to select the file from which to write in the batch you could do the following.

@echo off
:A
color a
cls
echo Choose the file that you want to read.
echo.
echo.
tree
echo.
echo.
echo.
set file=
set /p file=File:
cls
echo Reading from %file%
echo.
type %file%
echo.
echo.
echo.
set re=
set /p re=Y/N?:
if %re%==Y goto :A
if %re%==y goto :A
exit
