MySQL export into outfile : CSV escaping chars
Here is what worked here:
Simulates Excel 2003 (Save as CSV format)
SELECT
REPLACE( IFNULL(notes, ''), '\r\n' , '\n' ) AS notes
FROM sometables
INTO OUTFILE '/tmp/test.csv'
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' ENCLOSED BY '"' ESCAPED BY '"'
LINES TERMINATED BY '\r\n';
- Excel saves \r\n for line separators.
- Excel saves \n for newline characters within column data
- Have to replace \r\n inside your data first otherwise Excel will think its a start of the next line.
Aliases in Windows command prompt
You want to create an alias by simply typing:
c:\>alias kgs kubectl get svc
Created alias for kgs=kubectl get svc
And use the alias as follows:
c:\>kgs alfresco-svc
NAME TYPE CLUSTER-IP EXTERNAL-IP PORT(S) AGE
alfresco-svc ClusterIP 10.7.249.219 <none> 80/TCP 8d
Just add the following alias.bat
file to you path. It simply creates additional batch files in the same directory as itself.
@echo off
echo.
for /f "tokens=1,* delims= " %%a in ("%*") do set ALL_BUT_FIRST=%%b
echo @echo off > C:\Development\alias-script\%1.bat
echo echo. >> C:\Development\alias-script\%1.bat
echo %ALL_BUT_FIRST% %%* >> C:\Development\alias-script\%1.bat
echo Created alias for %1=%ALL_BUT_FIRST%
An example of the batch file this created called kgs.bat
is:
@echo off
echo.
kubectl get svc %*
How to download Google Play Services in an Android emulator?
I tried to develop google MAP API V2 application recently and tried to run it through emulator but I everytime it showed me error "Google Play Servcies is not installed in this phone".
From my perpective even I think google MAP API V2 doesn't work on emulator.
Solution
Then I tried to run the same example on my Sony Experia you and again it showed me same error.
Then I installed google play services on my mobile and amazingly it started working..:)))

Mocking member variables of a class using Mockito
Lots of others have already advised you to rethink your code to make it more testable - good advice and usually simpler than what I'm about to suggest.
If you can't change the code to make it more testable, PowerMock: https://code.google.com/p/powermock/
PowerMock extends Mockito (so you don't have to learn a new mock framework), providing additional functionality. This includes the ability to have a constructor return a mock. Powerful, but a little complicated - so use it judiciously.
You use a different Mock runner. And you need to prepare the class that is going to invoke the constructor. (Note that this is a common gotcha - prepare the class that calls the constructor, not the constructed class)
@RunWith(PowerMockRunner.class)
@PrepareForTest({First.class})
Then in your test set-up, you can use the whenNew method to have the constructor return a mock
whenNew(Second.class).withAnyArguments().thenReturn(mock(Second.class));
How to remove foreign key constraint in sql server?
Drop all the foreign keys of a table:
USE [Database_Name]
DECLARE @FOREIGN_KEY_NAME VARCHAR(100)
DECLARE FOREIGN_KEY_CURSOR CURSOR FOR
SELECT name FOREIGN_KEY_NAME FROM sys.foreign_keys WHERE parent_object_id = (SELECT object_id FROM sys.objects WHERE name = 'Table_Name' AND TYPE = 'U')
OPEN FOREIGN_KEY_CURSOR
----------------------------------------------------------
FETCH NEXT FROM FOREIGN_KEY_CURSOR INTO @FOREIGN_KEY_NAME
WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0
BEGIN
DECLARE @DROP_COMMAND NVARCHAR(150) = 'ALTER TABLE Table_Name DROP CONSTRAINT' + ' ' + @FOREIGN_KEY_NAME
EXECUTE Sp_executesql @DROP_COMMAND
FETCH NEXT FROM FOREIGN_KEY_CURSOR INTO @FOREIGN_KEY_NAME
END

CLOSE FOREIGN_KEY_CURSOR
DEALLOCATE FOREIGN_KEY_CURSOR
How to draw in JPanel? (Swing/graphics Java)
When working with graphical user interfaces, you need to remember that drawing on a pane is done in the Java AWT/Swing event queue. You can't just use the Graphics
object outside the paint()
/paintComponent()
/etc. methods.
However, you can use a technique called "Frame buffering". Basically, you need to have a BufferedImage and draw directly on it (see it's createGraphics()
method; that graphics context you can keep and reuse for multiple operations on a same BufferedImage
instance, no need to recreate it all the time, only when creating a new instance). Then, in your JPanel
's paintComponent()
, you simply need to draw the BufferedImage
instance unto the JPanel
. Using this technique, you can perform zoom, translation and rotation operations quite easily through affine transformations.
Mocking static methods with Mockito
You can do it with a little bit of refactoring:
public class MySQLDatabaseConnectionFactory implements DatabaseConnectionFactory {
@Override public Connection getConnection() {
try {
return _getConnection(...some params...);
} catch (SQLException e) {
throw new RuntimeException(e);
}
}
//method to forward parameters, enabling mocking, extension, etc
Connection _getConnection(...some params...) throws SQLException {
return DriverManager.getConnection(...some params...);
}
}
Then you can extend your class MySQLDatabaseConnectionFactory
to return a mocked connection, do assertions on the parameters, etc.
The extended class can reside within the test case, if it's located in the same package (which I encourage you to do)
public class MockedConnectionFactory extends MySQLDatabaseConnectionFactory {
Connection _getConnection(...some params...) throws SQLException {
if (some param != something) throw new InvalidParameterException();
//consider mocking some methods with when(yourMock.something()).thenReturn(value)
return Mockito.mock(Connection.class);
}
}
Set inputType for an EditText Programmatically?
password.setInputType(InputType.TYPE_CLASS_TEXT |
InputType.TYPE_TEXT_VARIATION_PASSWORD);
also you have to be careful that cursor moves to the starting point of the editText
after this function is called, so make sure that you move cursor to the end point again.
How do I convert a String object into a Hash object?
I had the same problem. I was storing a hash in Redis. When retrieving that hash, it was a string. I didn't want to call eval(str)
because of security concerns. My solution was to save the hash as a json string instead of a ruby hash string. If you have the option, using json is easier.
redis.set(key, ruby_hash.to_json)
JSON.parse(redis.get(key))
TL;DR: use to_json
and JSON.parse
How can I correctly format currency using jquery?

if (TESTCURRENCY.length <= 1) {_x000D_
$('#valueshow').val(_x000D_
parseFloat(TESTCURRENCY.toString().match(/^\d+(?:\.\d{0,2})?/))_x000D_
);_x000D_
} else {_x000D_
$('#valueshow').val('Invalid a value!');_x000D_
}_x000D_
});_x000D_
});

Find the similarity metric between two strings
Fuzzy Wuzzy
is a package that implements Levenshtein distance in python, with some helper functions to help in certain situations where you may want two distinct strings to be considered identical. For example:
>>> fuzz.ratio("fuzzy wuzzy was a bear", "wuzzy fuzzy was a bear")
91
>>> fuzz.token_sort_ratio("fuzzy wuzzy was a bear", "wuzzy fuzzy was a bear")
100
Python unittest - opposite of assertRaises?
I am the original poster and I accepted the above answer by DGH without having first used it in the code.
Once I did use I realised that it needed a little tweaking to actually do what I needed it to do (to be fair to DGH he/she did say "or something similar" !).
I thought it was worth posting the tweak here for the benefit of others:
try:
a = Application("abcdef", "")
except pySourceAidExceptions.PathIsNotAValidOne:
pass
except:
self.assertTrue(False)
What I was attempting to do here was to ensure that if an attempt was made to instantiate an Application object with a second argument of spaces the pySourceAidExceptions.PathIsNotAValidOne would be raised.
I believe that using the above code (based heavily on DGH's answer) will do that.
How to get MD5 sum of a string using python?
Have you tried using the MD5 implementation in hashlib? Note that hashing algorithms typically act on binary data rather than text data, so you may want to be careful about which character encoding is used to convert from text to binary data before hashing.
The result of a hash is also binary data - it looks like Flickr's example has then been converted into text using hex encoding. Use the hexdigest
function in hashlib to get this.
Spring JDBC Template for calling Stored Procedures
There are a number of ways to call stored procedures in Spring.
If you use CallableStatementCreator
to declare parameters, you will be using Java's standard interface of CallableStatement
, i.e register out parameters and set them separately. Using SqlParameter
abstraction will make your code cleaner.
I recommend you looking at SimpleJdbcCall
. It may be used like this:
SimpleJdbcCall jdbcCall = new SimpleJdbcCall(jdbcTemplate)
.withSchemaName(schema)
.withCatalogName(package)
.withProcedureName(procedure)();
...
jdbcCall.addDeclaredParameter(new SqlParameter(paramName, OracleTypes.NUMBER));
...
jdbcCall.execute(callParams);
For simple procedures you may use jdbcTemplate
's update
method:
jdbcTemplate.update("call SOME_PROC (?, ?)", param1, param2);
JComboBox Selection Change Listener?
It should respond to ActionListeners, like this:
combo.addActionListener (new ActionListener () {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
doSomething();
}
});
@John Calsbeek rightly points out that addItemListener()
will work, too. You may get 2 ItemEvents
, though, one for the deselection of the previously selected item, and another for the selection of the new item. Just don't use both event types!
How to print a query string with parameter values when using Hibernate
**If you want hibernate to print generated sql queries with real values instead of question marks.**
**add following entry in hibernate.cfg.xml/hibernate.properties:**
show_sql=true
format_sql=true
use_sql_comments=true
**And add following entry in log4j.properties :**
log4j.logger.org.hibernate=INFO, hb
log4j.logger.org.hibernate.SQL=DEBUG
log4j.logger.org.hibernate.type=TRACE
log4j.appender.hb=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender

Best Practice: Initialize JUnit class fields in setUp() or at declaration?
I started digging myself and I found one potential advantage of using setUp()
. If any exceptions are thrown during the execution of setUp()
, JUnit will print a very helpful stack trace. On the other hand, if an exception is thrown during object construction, the error message simply says JUnit was unable to instantiate the test case and you don't see the line number where the failure occurred, probably because JUnit uses reflection to instantiate the test classes.
None of this applies to the example of creating an empty collection, since that will never throw, but it is an advantage of the setUp()
method.
Linq to Entities join vs groupjoin
According to eduLINQ:
The best way to get to grips with what GroupJoin does is to think of
Join. There, the overall idea was that we looked through the "outer"
input sequence, found all the matching items from the "inner" sequence
(based on a key projection on each sequence) and then yielded pairs of
matching elements. GroupJoin is similar, except that instead of
yielding pairs of elements, it yields a single result for each "outer"
item based on that item and the sequence of matching "inner" items.
The only difference is in return statement:
Join:
var lookup = inner.ToLookup(innerKeySelector, comparer);
foreach (var outerElement in outer)
{
var key = outerKeySelector(outerElement);
foreach (var innerElement in lookup[key])
{
yield return resultSelector(outerElement, innerElement);
}
}
GroupJoin:
var lookup = inner.ToLookup(innerKeySelector, comparer);
foreach (var outerElement in outer)
{
var key = outerKeySelector(outerElement);
yield return resultSelector(outerElement, lookup[key]);
}

swift How to remove optional String Character
I looked over this again and i'm simplifying my answer. I think most the answers here are missing the point. You usually want to print whether or not your variable has a value and you also want your program not to crash if it doesn't (so don't use !). Here just do this
print("color: \(color ?? "")")
This will give you blank or the value.
What are the different types of indexes, what are the benefits of each?
I'll add a couple of index types
BITMAP - when you have very low number of different possible values, very fast and doesn't take up much space
PARTITIONED - allows the index to be partitioned based on some property usually advantageous on very large database objects for storage or performance reasons.
FUNCTION/EXPRESSION indexes - used to pre-calculate some value based on the table and store it in the index, a very simple example might be an index based on lower() or a substring function.

Pass variables to Ruby script via command line
Unless it is the most trivial case, there is only one sane way to use command line options in Ruby. It is called docopt and documented here.
What is amazing with it, is it's simplicity. All you have to do, is specify the "help" text for your command. What you write there will then be auto-parsed by the standalone (!) ruby library.
From the example:
#!/usr/bin/env ruby
require 'docopt.rb'
doc = <<DOCOPT
Usage: #{__FILE__} --help
#{__FILE__} -v...
#{__FILE__} go [go]
#{__FILE__} (--path=<path>)...
#{__FILE__} <file> <file>
Try: #{__FILE__} -vvvvvvvvvv
#{__FILE__} go go
#{__FILE__} --path ./here --path ./there
#{__FILE__} this.txt that.txt
DOCOPT
begin
require "pp"
pp Docopt::docopt(doc)
rescue Docopt::Exit => e
puts e.message
end
The output:
$ ./counted_example.rb -h
Usage: ./counted_example.rb --help
./counted_example.rb -v...
./counted_example.rb go [go]
./counted_example.rb (--path=<path>)...
./counted_example.rb <file> <file>
Try: ./counted_example.rb -vvvvvvvvvv
./counted_example.rb go go
./counted_example.rb --path ./here --path ./there
./counted_example.rb this.txt that.txt
$ ./counted_example.rb something else
{"--help"=>false,
"-v"=>0,
"go"=>0,
"--path"=>[],
"<file>"=>["something", "else"]}
$ ./counted_example.rb -v
{"--help"=>false, "-v"=>1, "go"=>0, "--path"=>[], "<file>"=>[]}
$ ./counted_example.rb go go
{"--help"=>false, "-v"=>0, "go"=>2, "--path"=>[], "<file>"=>[]}

How do I pass parameters into a PHP script through a webpage?
$argv[0]; // the script name
$argv[1]; // the first parameter
$argv[2]; // the second parameter
If you want to all the script to run regardless of where you call it from (command line or from the browser) you'll want something like the following:
<?php
if ($_GET) {
$argument1 = $_GET['argument1'];
$argument2 = $_GET['argument2'];
} else {
$argument1 = $argv[1];
$argument2 = $argv[2];
}
?>
To call from command line chmod 755 /var/www/webroot/index.php
and use
/usr/bin/php /var/www/webroot/index.php arg1 arg2
To call from the browser, use
http://www.mydomain.com/index.php?argument1=arg1&argument2=arg2

How can I access Google Sheet spreadsheets only with Javascript?
You can read Google Sheets spreadsheets data in JavaScript by using the RGraph sheets connector:
https://www.rgraph.net/canvas/docs/import-data-from-google-sheets.html
Initially (a few years ago) this relied on some RGraph functions to work its magic - but now it can work standalone (ie not requiring the RGraph common library).
Some example code (this example makes an RGraph chart):
<!-- Include the sheets library -->
<script src="RGraph.common.sheets.js"></script>
<!-- Include these two RGraph libraries to make the chart -->
<script src="RGraph.common.key.js"></script>
<script src="RGraph.bar.js"></script>
<script>
// Create a new RGraph Sheets object using the spreadsheet's key and
// the callback function that creates the chart. The RGraph.Sheets object is
// passed to the callback function as an argument so it doesn't need to be
// assigned to a variable when it's created
new RGraph.Sheets('1ncvARBgXaDjzuca9i7Jyep6JTv9kms-bbIzyAxbaT0E', function (sheet)
{
// Get the labels from the spreadsheet by retrieving part of the first row
var labels = sheet.get('A2:A7');
// Use the column headers (ie the names) as the key
var key = sheet.get('B1:E1');
// Get the data from the sheet as the data for the chart
var data = [
sheet.get('B2:E2'), // January
sheet.get('B3:E3'), // February
sheet.get('B4:E4'), // March
sheet.get('B5:E5'), // April
sheet.get('B6:E6'), // May
sheet.get('B7:E7') // June
];
// Create and configure the chart; using the information retrieved above
// from the spreadsheet
var bar = new RGraph.Bar({
id: 'cvs',
data: data,
options: {
backgroundGridVlines: false,
backgroundGridBorder: false,
xaxisLabels: labels,
xaxisLabelsOffsety: 5,

How can I convert tabs to spaces in every file of a directory?
Download and run the following script to recursively convert hard tabs to soft tabs in plain text files.
Execute the script from inside the folder which contains the plain text files.
#!/bin/bash
find . -type f -and -not -path './.git/*' -exec grep -Iq . {} \; -and -print | while read -r file; do {
echo "Converting... "$file"";
data=$(expand --initial -t 4 "$file");
rm "$file";
echo "$data" > "$file";
}; done;
Post-increment and Pre-increment concept?
The difference between the postfix increment, x++
, and the prefix increment, ++x
, is precisely in how the two operators evaluate their operands. The postfix increment conceptually copies the operand in memory, increments the original operand and finally yields the value of the copy. I think this is best illustrated by implementing the operator in code:
int operator ++ (int& n) // postfix increment
{
int tmp = n;
n = n + 1;
return tmp;
}
The above code will not compile because you can't re-define operators for primitive types. The compiler also can't tell here we're defining a postfix operator rather than prefix, but let's pretend this is correct and valid C++. You can see that the postfix operator indeed acts on its operand, but it returns the old value prior to the increment, so the result of the expression x++
is the value prior to the increment. x
, however, is incremented.
The prefix increment increments its operand as well, but it yields the value of the operand after the increment:
int& operator ++ (int& n)
{
n = n + 1;
return n;
}
This means that the expression ++x
evaluates to the value of x
after the increment.
It's easy to think that the expression ++x
is therefore equivalent to the assignmnet (x=x+1)
. This is not precisely so, however, because an increment is an operation that can mean different things in different contexts. In the case of a simple primitive integer, indeed ++x
is substitutable for (x=x+1)
. But in the case of a class-type, such as an iterator of a linked list, a prefix increment of the iterator most definitely does not mean "adding one to the object".
Linq style "For Each"
There isn't anything built-in, but you can easily create your own extension method to do it:
public static void ForEach<T>(this IEnumerable<T> source, Action<T> action)
{
if (source == null) throw new ArgumentNullException("source");
if (action == null) throw new ArgumentNullException("action");
foreach (T item in source)
{
action(item);
}
}
Why are interface variables static and final by default?
Interface can be implemented by any classes and what if that value got changed by one of there implementing class then there will be mislead for other implementing classes. Interface is basically a reference to combine two corelated but different entity.so for that reason the declaring variable inside the interface will implicitly be final and also static because interface can not be instantiate.

In Excel 2007, a combination using select and CutCopyMode property, it is possible to reset all the selections. It worked for my use case.
Application.CutCopyMode = xlCopy
ActiveSheet.Range("A" & lngRow).Select

catching stdout in realtime from subprocess
Your problem is:
for line in p.stdout:
print(">>> " + str(line.rstrip()))
p.stdout.flush()
the iterator itself has extra buffering.
Try doing like this:
while True:
line = p.stdout.readline()
if not line:
break
print line
AngularJS : Factory and Service?
$provide service
They are technically the same thing, it's actually a different notation of using the provider
function of the $provide
service.
- If you're using a class: you could use the service notation.
- If you're using an object: you could use the factory notation.
The only difference between the service
and the factory
notation is that the service is new-ed and the factory is not. But for everything else they both look, smell and behave the same. Again, it's just a shorthand for the $provide.provider function.
// Factory
angular.module('myApp').factory('myFactory', function() {
var _myPrivateValue = 123;
return {
privateValue: function() { return _myPrivateValue; }
};
});
// Service
function MyService() {
this._myPrivateValue = 123;
}
MyService.prototype.privateValue = function() {
return this._myPrivateValue;
};
angular.module('myApp').service('MyService', MyService);
How do I get the current Date/time in DD/MM/YYYY HH:MM format?
The formatting can be done like this (I assumed you meant HH:MM instead of HH:SS, but it's easy to change):
Time.now.strftime("%d/%m/%Y %H:%M")
#=> "14/09/2011 14:09"
Updated for the shifting:
d = DateTime.now
d.strftime("%d/%m/%Y %H:%M")
#=> "11/06/2017 18:11"
d.next_month.strftime("%d/%m/%Y %H:%M")
#=> "11/07/2017 18:11"
You need to require 'date'
for this btw.
What is the best comment in source code you have ever encountered?
Spelunking through the Hardware Abstraction Layer while working for a certain Finnish Mobile Network Equipment Manufacturer I found 100+ occurrences of the Finnish word "puukko".
A 'puukko' is an all purpose knife that every Finn has in their toolbox or around the house. It is used for everything from pealing potatoes to performing computer repairs (my observations). I believe in this context it is the Finnish equivalent of the word 'Hack'.
My Finnish colleagues denied this and said it meant something more like 'surgical procedure/intervention'... and I almost believed them until I found the comment:
/* Perkele ISO Puukko! */ -> Fucking Big Hack!
Find object by id in an array of JavaScript objects
Performance
Today 2020.06.20 I perform test on MacOs High Sierra on Chrome 81.0, Firefox 77.0 and Safari 13.1 for chosen solutions.
Conclusions for solutions which use precalculations
Solutions with precalculations (K,L) are (much much) faster than other solutions and will not be compared with them - probably they are use some special build-in browser optimisations
- surprisingly on Chrome and Safari solution based on
Map
(K) are much faster than solution based on object {}
(L)
- surprisingly on Safari for small arrays solution based on object
{}
(L) is slower than traditional for
(E)
- surprisingly on Firefox for small arrays solution based on
Map
(K) is slower than traditional for
(E)
Conclusions when searched objects ALWAYS exists
- solution which use traditional
for
(E) is fastest for small arrays and fast for big arrays
- solution using cache (J) is fastest for big arrays - surprisingly for small arrays is medium fast
- solutions based on
find
(A) and findIndex
(B) are fast for small arras and medium fast on big arrays
- solution based on
$.map
(H) is slowest on small arrays
- solution based on
reduce
(D) is slowest on big arrays
Conclusions when searched objects NEVER exists
- solution based on traditional
for
(E) is fastest on small and big arrays (except Chrome-small arrays where it is second fast)
- solution based on
reduce
(D) is slowest on big arrays
- solution which use cache (J) is medium fast but can be speed up if we save in cache also keys which have null values (which was not done here because we want to avoid unlimited memory consumption in cache in case when many not existing keys will be searched)
Details
For solutions
- without precalculations: A

I perform four tests. In tests I want to find 5 objects in 10 loop iterations (the objects ID not change during iterations) - so I call tested method 50 times but only first 5 times have unique id values:
- small array (10 elements) and searched object ALWAYS exists - you can perform it HERE
- big array (10k elements) and searched object ALWAYS exist - you can perform it HERE
- small array (10 elements) and searched object NEVER exists - you can perform it HERE
- big array (10k elements) and searched object NEVER exists - you can perform it HERE

Simplest way to read json from a URL in java
I am not sure if this is efficient, but this is one of the possible ways:
Read json from url use url.openStream()
and read contents into a string.
construct a JSON object with this string (more at json.org)
JSONObject(java.lang.String source)
Construct a JSONObject from a source JSON text string.
Spring 3 MVC accessing HttpRequest from controller
Spring MVC will give you the HttpRequest if you just add it to your controller method signature:
For instance:
/**
* Generate a PDF report...
*/
@RequestMapping(value = "/report/{objectId}", method = RequestMethod.GET)
public @ResponseBody void generateReport(
@PathVariable("objectId") Long objectId,
HttpServletRequest request,
HttpServletResponse response) {
// ...
// Here you can use the request and response objects like:
// response.setContentType("application/pdf");
// response.getOutputStream().write(...);
}
As you see, simply adding the HttpServletRequest
and HttpServletResponse
objects to the signature makes Spring MVC to pass those objects to your controller method. You'll want the HttpSession
object too.
EDIT: It seems that HttpServletRequest/Response are not working for some people under Spring 3. Try using Spring WebRequest/WebResponse objects as Eduardo Zola pointed out.
I strongly recommend you to have a look at the list of supported arguments that Spring MVC is able to auto-magically inject to your handler methods.
how to implement Interfaces in C++?
C++ has no built-in concepts of interfaces. You can implement it using abstract classes which contains only pure virtual functions. Since it allows multiple inheritance, you can inherit this class to create another class which will then contain this interface (I mean, object interface :) ) in it.
An example would be something like this -
class Interface
{
public:
Interface(){}
virtual ~Interface(){}
virtual void method1() = 0; // "= 0" part makes this method pure virtual, and
// also makes this class abstract.
virtual void method2() = 0;
};
class Concrete : public Interface
{
private:
int myMember;
public:
Concrete(){}
~Concrete(){}
void method1();
void method2();
};
// Provide implementation for the first method
void Concrete::method1()
{
// Your implementation
}
// Provide implementation for the second method
void Concrete::method2()
{
// Your implementation
}
int main(void)
{
Interface *f = new Concrete();
f->method1();
f->method2();
delete f;
return 0;
}
How do check if a PHP session is empty?
You could use the count() function to see how many entries there are in the $_SESSION array. This is not good practice. You should instead set the id of the user (or something similar) to check wheter the session was initialised or not.
if( !isset($_SESSION['uid']) )
die( "Login required." );
(Assuming you want to check if someone is logged in)
Jquery post, response in new window
Use the write()-Method of the Popup's document to put your markup there:

var w = window.open('about:blank');
w.document.open();
w.document.write(data);
w.document.close();
});
Matplotlib/pyplot: How to enforce axis range?
I tried all of those above answers, and I then summarized a pipeline of how to draw the fixed-axes image. It applied both to show
function and savefig
function.
before you plot:
fig = pylab.figure()
ax = fig.gca()
ax.set_autoscale_on(False)
This is to request an ax
which is subplot(1,1,1)
.
During the plot:
ax.plot('You plot argument') # Put inside your argument, like ax.plot(x,y,label='test')
ax.axis('The list of range') # Put in side your range [xmin,xmax,ymin,ymax], like ax.axis([-5,5,-5,200])
After the plot:
To show the image :
fig.show()
To save the figure :
fig.savefig('the name of your figure')
I find out that put axis
at the front of the code won't work even though I have set autoscale_on
to False
.
I used this code to create a series of animation. And below is the example of combing multiple fixed axes images into an animation.
BAT file to open CMD in current directory
A bit late to the game but if I'm understanding your needs correctly this will help people with the same issue.
Two solutions with the same first step:
First navigate to the location you keep your scripts in and copy the filepath to that directory.
First Solution:
- Click "Start"
- Right-click "Computer" (or "My Computer)
- Click "Properties"
- On the left, click "Advanced System Settings"
- Click "Environment Variables"
- In the "System Variables" Box, scroll down and select "PATH"
- Click "Edit"
- In the "Variable Value" field, scroll all the way to the right
- If there isn't a semi-colon (;) there yet, add it.
- Paste in the filepath you copied earlier.
- End with a semi-colon.
- Click "OK"
- Click "OK" again
- Click "OK" one last time
You can now use any of your scripts as if you were already that folder.
Second Solution: (can easily be paired with the first for extra usefulness)
On your desktop create a batch file with the following content.
@echo off
cmd /k cd "C:\your\file\path"
This will open a command window like what you tried to do.
For tons of info on windows commands check here: http://ss64.com/nt/
Do I need Content-Type: application/octet-stream for file download?
No.
The content-type should be whatever it is known to be, if you know it. application/octet-stream
is defined as "arbitrary binary data" in RFC 2046, and there's a definite overlap here of it being appropriate for entities whose sole intended purpose is to be saved to disk, and from that point on be outside of anything "webby". Or to look at it from another direction; the only thing one can safely do with application/octet-stream is to save it to file and hope someone else knows what it's for.
You can combine the use of Content-Disposition
with other content-types, such as image/png
or even text/html
to indicate you want saving rather than display. It used to be the case that some browsers would ignore it in the case of text/html
but I think this was some long time ago at this point (and I'm going to bed soon so I'm not going to start testing a whole bunch of browsers right now; maybe later).
RFC 2616 also mentions the possibility of extension tokens, and these days most browsers recognise inline
to mean you do want the entity displayed if possible (that is, if it's a type the browser knows how to display, otherwise it's got no choice in the matter). This is of course the default behaviour anyway, but it means that you can include the filename
part of the header, which browsers will use (perhaps with some adjustment so file-extensions match local system norms for the content-type in question, perhaps not) as the suggestion if the user tries to save.
Hence:
Content-Type: application/octet-stream
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="picture.png"
Means "I don't know what the hell this is. Please save it as a file, preferably named picture.png".
Content-Type: image/png
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="picture.png"
Means "This is a PNG image. Please save it as a file, preferably named picture.png".
Content-Type: image/png
Content-Disposition: inline; filename="picture.png"
Means "This is a PNG image. Please display it unless you don't know how to display PNG images. Otherwise, or if the user chooses to save it, we recommend the name picture.png for the file you save it as".
Of those browsers that recognise inline
some would always use it, while others would use it if the user had selected "save link as" but not if they'd selected "save" while viewing (or at least IE used to be like that, it may have changed some years ago).
Jquery UI tooltip does not support html content
I solved it with a custom data tag, because a title attribute is required anyway.
$("[data-tooltip]").each(function(i, e) {
var tag = $(e);
if (tag.is("[title]") === false) {
tag.attr("title", "");
}
});
$(document).tooltip({
items: "[data-tooltip]",
content: function () {
return $(this).attr("data-tooltip");
}
});
Like this it is html conform and the tooltips are only shown for wanted tags.
How to initialize a vector with fixed length in R
The initialization method easiest to remember is
vec = vector(,10); #the same as "vec = vector(length = 10);"
The values of vec are: "[1] FALSE FALSE FALSE FALSE FALSE FALSE FALSE FALSE FALSE FALSE" (logical mode) by default.
But after setting a character value, like
vec[2] = 'abc'
vec becomes: "FALSE" "abc" "FALSE" "FALSE" "FALSE" "FALSE" "FALSE" "FALSE" "FALSE" "FALSE"", which is of the character mode.
Rotating videos with FFmpeg
This script that will output the files with the directory structure under "fixedFiles". At the moment is fixed to MOV files and will execute a number of transformations depending on the original "rotation" of the video. Works with iOS captured videos on a Mac running Mavericks, but should be easily exportable. Relies on having installed both exiftool and ffmpeg.

events.

// Print entered value in a div box
$("#result").text($(this).val());
});

How to deserialize JS date using Jackson?
@JsonFormat only work for standard format supported by the jackson version that you are using.
Ex :- compatible with any of standard forms ("yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSSZ", "yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSS'Z'", "EEE, dd MMM yyyy HH:mm:ss zzz", "yyyy-MM-dd")) for jackson 2.8.6
Bytes of a string in Java
If you're running with 64-bit references:
sizeof(string) =
8 + // object header used by the VM
8 + // 64-bit reference to char array (value)
8 + string.length() * 2 + // character array itself (object header + 16-bit chars)
4 + // offset integer
4 + // count integer
4 + // cached hash code
In other words:
sizeof(string) = 36 + string.length() * 2
On a 32-bit VM or a 64-bit VM with compressed OOPs (-XX:+UseCompressedOops), the references are 4 bytes. So the total would be:
sizeof(string) = 32 + string.length() * 2
This does not take into account the references to the string object.
LINQ to SQL using GROUP BY and COUNT(DISTINCT)
Linq to sql has no support for Count(Distinct ...). You therefore have to map a .NET method in code onto a Sql server function (thus Count(distinct.. )) and use that.
btw, it doesn't help if you post pseudo code copied from a toolkit in a format that's neither VB.NET nor C#.
In Angular, What is 'pathmatch: full' and what effect does it have?
RouterModule.forRoot([
{ path: 'welcome', component: WelcomeComponent },
{ path: '', redirectTo: 'welcome', pathMatch: 'full' },
{ path: '**', component: 'pageNotFoundComponent' }
])
Case 1 pathMatch:'full'
:
In this case, when app is launched on localhost:4200
(or some server) the default page will be welcome screen, since the url will be https://localhost:4200/
If https://localhost:4200/gibberish
this will redirect to pageNotFound screen because of path:'**'
wildcard
Case 2
pathMatch:'prefix'
:
If the routes have { path: '', redirectTo: 'welcome', pathMatch: 'prefix' }
, now this will never reach the wildcard route since every url would match path:''
defined.

How to limit the number of selected checkboxes?
This is how I made it work:
// Function to check and disable checkbox
function limit_checked( element, size ) {

$(element).not(':checked').attr('disabled',bol);
}
// List of checkbox groups to check
var check_elements = [
{ id: '.group1 input[type=checkbox]', size: 2 },
{ id: '.group2 input[type=checkbox]', size: 3 },
];
// Run function for each group in list
$(check_elements).each( function(index, element) {
// Limit checked on window load
$(window).load( function() {
limit_checked( element.id, element.size );
})
// Limit checked on click
$(element.id).click(function() {
limit_checked( element.id, element.size );
});
});
SQL ORDER BY date problem
It sounds to me like your column isn't a date column but a text column (varchar/nvarchar etc). You should store it in the database as a date, not a string.
If you have to store it as a string for some reason, store it in a sortable format e.g. yyyy/MM/dd.
As najmeddine shows, you could convert the column on every access, but I would try very hard not to do that. It will make the database do a lot more work - it won't be able to keep appropriate indexes etc. Whenever possible, store the data in a type appropriate to the data itself.
execute shell command from android
A modification of the code by @CarloCannas:
public static void sudo(String...strings) {
try{
Process su = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("su");
DataOutputStream outputStream = new DataOutputStream(su.getOutputStream());
for (String s : strings) {
outputStream.writeBytes(s+"\n");
outputStream.flush();
}
outputStream.writeBytes("exit\n");
outputStream.flush();
try {
su.waitFor();
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
outputStream.close();
}catch(IOException e){
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
(You are welcome to find a better place for outputStream.close())
Usage example:
private static void suMkdirs(String path) {
if (!new File(path).isDirectory()) {
sudo("mkdir -p "+path);
}
}
Update:
To get the result (the output to stdout), use:
public static String sudoForResult(String...strings) {
String res = "";
DataOutputStream outputStream = null;
InputStream response = null;
try{
Process su = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("su");
outputStream = new DataOutputStream(su.getOutputStream());
response = su.getInputStream();
for (String s : strings) {
outputStream.writeBytes(s+"\n");
outputStream.flush();
}
outputStream.writeBytes("exit\n");
outputStream.flush();
try {
su.waitFor();
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
res = readFully(response);
} catch (IOException e){
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
Closer.closeSilently(outputStream, response);
}
return res;
}
public static String readFully(InputStream is) throws IOException {
ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];
int length = 0;
while ((length = is.read(buffer)) != -1) {
baos.write(buffer, 0, length);
}
return baos.toString("UTF-8");
}
The utility to silently close a number of Closeables (So?ket may be no Closeable) is:
public class Closer {
// closeAll()
public static void closeSilently(Object... xs) {
// Note: on Android API levels prior to 19 Socket does not implement Closeable
for (Object x : xs) {
if (x != null) {
try {

ArrayAdapter in android to create simple listview
If you have more than one view in the layout file android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1
then you'll have to pass the third argument android.R.id.text1
to specify the view that should be filled with the array elements (values). But if you have just one view in your layout file, there is no need to specify the third argument.
How do I pass a class as a parameter in Java?
public void callingMethod(Class neededClass) {
//Cast the class to the class you need
//and call your method in the class
((ClassBeingCalled)neededClass).methodOfClass();
}
To call the method, you call it this way:
callingMethod(ClassBeingCalled.class);
Restart android machine
adb reboot
should not reboot your linux box.
But in any case, you can redirect the command to a specific adb device using adb -s <device_id> command
, where
Device ID can be obtained from the command adb devices
command in this case is reboot
regex match any single character (one character only)
Match any single character
- Use the dot
.
character as a wildcard to match any single character.
Example regex: a.c
abc // match
a c // match
azc // match
ac // no match
abbc // no match
Match any specific character in a set
- Use square brackets
[]
to match any characters in a set.
- Use
\w
to match any single alphanumeric character: 0-9
, a-z
, A-Z
, and _
(underscore).
- Use
\d
to match any single digit.
- Use
\s
to match any single whitespace character.
Example 1 regex: a[bcd]c
abc // match
acc // match
adc // match
ac // no match
abbc // no match
Example 2 regex: a[0-7]c
a0c // match
a3c // match
a7c // match
a8c // no match
ac // no match
a55c // no match
Match any character except ...
Use the hat in square brackets [^]
to match any single character except for any of the characters that come after the hat ^
.
Example regex: a[^abc]c
aac // no match
abc // no match
acc // no match
a c // match
azc // match
ac // no match
azzc // no match
(Don't confuse the ^
here in [^]
with its other usage as the start of line character: ^
= line start, $
= line end.)
Match any character optionally
Use the optional character ?
after any character to specify zero or one occurrence of that character. Thus, you would use .?
to match any single character optionally.
Example regex: a.?c
abc // match
a c // match
azc // match
ac // match
abbc // no match

UITableView with fixed section headers
to make UITableView sections header not sticky or sticky:
change the table view's style - make it grouped for not sticky & make it plain for sticky section headers - do not forget: you can do it from storyboard without writing code. (click on your table view and change it is style from the right Side/ component menu)
if you have extra components such as custom views or etc. please check the table view's margins to create appropriate design. (such as height of header for sections & height of cell at index path, sections)
How to show changed file name only with git log?
If you need just file names like:
dir/subdir/file1.txt
dir/subdir2/file2.sql
dir2/subdir3/file6.php
(which I use as a source for tar command) you will also need to filter out commit messages.
In order to do this I use following command:
git log --name-only --oneline | grep -v '.{7} '
Grep command excludes (-v
param) every line which starts with seven symbols (which is the length of my git hash for git log
command) followed by space. So it filters out every git hash message
line and leave only lines with file names.
One useful improvement is to append uniq
to remove duplicate lines so it will looks as follow:
git log --name-only --oneline | grep -v '.{7} ' | uniq
Specified cast is not valid?
htmlStr
is string then You need to Date
and Time
variables to string
while (reader.Read())
{
DateTime Date = reader.GetDateTime(0);
DateTime Time = reader.GetDateTime(1);
htmlStr += "<tr><td>" + Date.ToString() + "</td><td>" +
Time.ToString() + "</td></tr>";
}
How to "pretty" format JSON output in Ruby on Rails
Thanks to Rack Middleware and Rails 3 you can output pretty JSON for every request without changing any controller of your app. I have written such middleware snippet and I get nicely printed JSON in browser and curl
output.
class PrettyJsonResponse
def initialize(app)
@app = app
end
def call(env)
status, headers, response = @app.call(env)
if headers["Content-Type"] =~ /^application\/json/
obj = JSON.parse(response.body)
pretty_str = JSON.pretty_unparse(obj)
response = [pretty_str]
headers["Content-Length"] = pretty_str.bytesize.to_s
end
[status, headers, response]
end
end
The above code should be placed in app/middleware/pretty_json_response.rb
of your Rails project.
And the final step is to register the middleware in config/environments/development.rb
:
config.middleware.use PrettyJsonResponse
I don't recommend to use it in production.rb
. The JSON reparsing may degrade response time and throughput of your production app. Eventually extra logic such as 'X-Pretty-Json: true' header may be introduced to trigger formatting for manual curl requests on demand.
(Tested with Rails 3.2.8-5.0.0, Ruby 1.9.3-2.2.0, Linux)
Container is running beyond memory limits
There is a check placed at Yarn level for Virtual and Physical memory usage ratio.
Issue is not only that VM doesn't have sufficient physical memory. But it is because Virtual memory usage is more than expected for given physical memory.
Note : This is happening on Centos/RHEL 6 due to its aggressive allocation of virtual memory.
It can be resolved either by :
Disable virtual memory usage check by setting
yarn.nodemanager.vmem-check-enabled to false;
Increase VM:PM ratio by setting yarn.nodemanager.vmem-pmem-ratio to some higher value.

How can I access a hover state in reactjs?
For having hover effect you can simply try this code
import React from "react";
import "./styles.css";
export default function App() {
function MouseOver(event) {
event.target.style.background = 'red';
}
function MouseOut(event){
event.target.style.background="";
}
return (
<div className="App">
<button onMouseOver={MouseOver} onMouseOut={MouseOut}>Hover over me!</button>
</div>
);
}
Or if you want to handle this situation using useState() hook then you can try this piece of code
import React from "react";
import "./styles.css";
export default function App() {
let [over,setOver]=React.useState(false);
let buttonstyle={
backgroundColor:''
}
if(over){
buttonstyle.backgroundColor="green";
}
else{
buttonstyle.backgroundColor='';
}
return (
<div className="App">
<button style={buttonstyle}
onMouseOver={()=>setOver(true)}
onMouseOut={()=>setOver(false)}
>Hover over me!</button>
</div>
);
}
Both of the above code will work for hover effect but first procedure is easier to write and understand
Convert ArrayList to String array in Android
Use the method "toArray()"
ArrayList<String> mStringList= new ArrayList<String>();
mStringList.add("ann");
mStringList.add("john");
Object[] mStringArray = mStringList.toArray();
for(int i = 0; i < mStringArray.length ; i++){
Log.d("string is",(String)mStringArray[i]);
}
or you can do it like this: (mentioned in other answers)
ArrayList<String> mStringList= new ArrayList<String>();
mStringList.add("ann");
mStringList.add("john");
String[] mStringArray = new String[mStringList.size()];
mStringArray = mStringList.toArray(mStringArray);
for(int i = 0; i < mStringArray.length ; i++){
Log.d("string is",(String)mStringArray[i]);
}

PHP remove commas from numeric strings
Not tested, but probably something like if(preg_match("/^[0-9,]+$/", $a)) $a = str_replace(...)
Do it the other way around:
$a = "1,435";
$b = str_replace( ',', '', $a );
if( is_numeric( $b ) ) {
$a = $b;
}
The easiest would be:
$var = intval(preg_replace('/[^\d.]/', '', $var));
or if you need float:
$var = floatval(preg_replace('/[^\d.]/', '', $var));
Select N random elements from a List<T> in C#
public static IEnumerable<T> GetRandom<T>(this IList<T> list, int count, Random random)
{
// Probably you should throw exception if count > list.Count
count = Math.Min(list.Count, count);
var selectedIndices = new SortedSet<int>();
// Random upper bound
int randomMax = list.Count - 1;
while (selectedIndices.Count < count)
{
int randomIndex = random.Next(0, randomMax);
// skip over already selected indeces
foreach (var selectedIndex in selectedIndices)
if (selectedIndex <= randomIndex)
++randomIndex;
else
break;
yield return list[randomIndex];
selectedIndices.Add(randomIndex);
--randomMax;
}
}
Memory: ~count
Complexity: O(count2)
How do I update Node.js?
According to Nodejs Official Page, you can install&update new node version on windows using Chocolatey or Scoop
Using(Chocolatey):
cinst nodejs
# or for full install with npm
cinst nodejs.install
Using(Scoop):
scoop install nodejs
Also you can download the Windows Installer directly from the nodejs.org web site
Focus Next Element In Tab Index
Without jquery:
First of all, on your tab-able elements, add class="tabable"
this will let us select them later.
(Do not forget the "." class selector prefix in the code below)
var lastTabIndex = 10;
function OnFocusOut()
{
var currentElement = $get(currentElementId); // ID set by OnFOcusIn
var curIndex = currentElement.tabIndex; //get current elements tab index
if(curIndex == lastTabIndex) { //if we are on the last tabindex, go back to the beginning
curIndex = 0;
}
var tabbables = document.querySelectorAll(".tabable"); //get all tabable elements
for(var i=0; i<tabbables.length; i++) { //loop through each element
if(tabbables[i].tabIndex == (curIndex+1)) { //check the tabindex to see if it's the element we want
tabbables[i].focus(); //if it's the one we want, focus it and exit the loop
break;
}
}
}
Detect user scroll down or scroll up in jQuery
To differentiate between scroll up/down in jQuery, you could use:
var mousewheelevt = (/Firefox/i.test(navigator.userAgent)) ? "DOMMouseScroll" : "mousewheel" //FF doesn't recognize mousewheel as of FF3.x
$('#yourDiv').bind(mousewheelevt, function(e){
var evt = window.event || e //equalize event object
evt = evt.originalEvent ? evt.originalEvent : evt; //convert to originalEvent if possible
var delta = evt.detail ? evt.detail*(-40) : evt.wheelDelta //check for detail first, because it is used by Opera and FF
if(delta > 0) {
//scroll up
}
else{
//scroll down
}
});
This method also works in divs that have overflow:hidden
.
I successfully tested it in FireFox, IE and Chrome.
Fastest way to compute entropy in Python
This method extends the other solutions by allowing for binning. For example, bin=None
(default) won't bin x
and will compute an empirical probability for each element of x
, while bin=256
chunks x
into 256 bins before computing the empirical probabilities.
import numpy as np
def entropy(x, bins=None):
N = x.shape[0]
if bins is None:
counts = np.bincount(x)
else:
counts = np.histogram(x, bins=bins)[0] # 0th idx is counts
p = counts[np.nonzero(counts)]/N # avoids log(0)
H = -np.dot( p, np.log2(p) )
return H
Python: Tuples/dictionaries as keys, select, sort
A dictionary probably isn't what you should be using in this case. A more full featured library would be a better alternative. Probably a real database. The easiest would be sqlite. You can keep the whole thing in memory by passing in the string ':memory:' instead of a filename.
If you do want to continue down this path, you can do it with the extra attributes in the key or the value. However a dictionary can't be the key to a another dictionary, but a tuple can. The docs explain what's allowable. It must be an immutable object, which includes strings, numbers and tuples that contain only strings and numbers (and more tuples containing only those types recursively...).
You could do your first example with d = {('apple', 'red') : 4}
, but it'll be very hard to query for what you want. You'd need to do something like this:
#find all apples
apples = [d[key] for key in d.keys() if key[0] == 'apple']
#find all red items
red = [d[key] for key in d.keys() if key[1] == 'red']
#the red apple
redapples = d[('apple', 'red')]
SQL query, store result of SELECT in local variable
You can create table variables:
DECLARE @result1 TABLE (a INT, b INT, c INT)
INSERT INTO @result1
SELECT a, b, c
FROM table1
SELECT a AS val FROM @result1
UNION
SELECT b AS val FROM @result1
UNION
SELECT c AS val FROM @result1
This should be fine for what you need.
How does Java resolve a relative path in new File()?
Relative paths can be best understood if you know how Java runs the program.
There is a concept of working directory when running programs in Java. Assuming you have a class, say, FileHelper
that does the IO under
/User/home/Desktop/projectRoot/src/topLevelPackage/
.
Depending on the case where you invoke java
to run the program, you will have different working directory. If you run your program from within and IDE, it will most probably be projectRoot
.
In this case $ projectRoot/src : java topLevelPackage.FileHelper
it will be src
.
In this case $ projectRoot : java -cp src topLevelPackage.FileHelper
it will be projectRoot
.
In this case $ /User/home/Desktop : java -cp ./projectRoot/src topLevelPackage.FileHelper
it will be Desktop
.
(Assuming $ is your command prompt with standard Unix-like FileSystem. Similar correspondence/parallels with Windows system)
So, your relative path root (.)
resolves to your working directory. Thus to be better sure of where to write files, it's said to consider below approach.
package topLevelPackage
import java.io.File;
import java.nio.file.Path;
import java.nio.file.Paths;
public class FileHelper {
// Not full implementation, just barebone stub for path
public void createLocalFile() {
// Explicitly get hold of working directory
String workingDir = System.getProperty("user.dir");
Path filePath = Paths.get(workingDir+File.separator+"sampleFile.txt");
// In case we need specific path, traverse that path, rather using . or ..
Path pathToProjectRoot = Paths.get(System.getProperty("user.home"), "Desktop", "projectRoot");
System.out.println(filePath);
System.out.println(pathToProjectRoot);
}
}
Hope this helps.
What is the use of static constructors?
Why and when would we create a static constructor ...?
One specific reason to use a static constructor is to create a 'super enum' class. Here's a (simple, contrived) example:
public class Animals
{
private readonly string _description;
private readonly string _speciesBinomialName;
public string Description { get { return _description; } }
public string SpeciesBinomialName { get { return _speciesBinomialName; } }
private Animals(string description, string speciesBinomialName)
{
_description = description;
_speciesBinomialName = speciesBinomialName;
}
private static readonly Animals _dog;
private static readonly Animals _cat;
private static readonly Animals _boaConstrictor;
public static Animals Dog { get { return _dog; } }
public static Animals Cat { get { return _cat; } }
public static Animals BoaConstrictor { get { return _boaConstrictor; } }
static Animals()
{
_dog = new Animals("Man's best friend", "Canis familiaris");
_cat = new Animals("Small, typically furry, killer", "Felis catus");
_boaConstrictor = new Animals("Large, heavy-bodied snake", "Boa constrictor");
}
}
You'd use it very similarly (in syntactical appearance) to any other enum:
Animals.Dog
The advantage of this over a regular enum
is that you can encapsulate related info easily. One disadvantage is that you can't use these values in a switch
statement (because it requires constant values).
How to create helper file full of functions in react native?
I am sure this can help. Create fileA anywhere in the directory and export all the functions.
export const func1=()=>{
// do stuff
}
export const func2=()=>{
// do stuff
}
export const func3=()=>{
// do stuff
}
export const func4=()=>{
// do stuff
}
export const func5=()=>{
// do stuff
}
Here, in your React component class, you can simply write one import statement.
import React from 'react';
import {func1,func2,func3} from 'path_to_fileA';
class HtmlComponents extends React.Component {
constructor(props){
super(props);
this.rippleClickFunction=this.rippleClickFunction.bind(this);
}
rippleClickFunction(){
//do stuff.
// foo==bar
func1(data);
func2(data)
}
render() {
return (
<article>
<h1>React Components</h1>
<RippleButton onClick={this.rippleClickFunction}/>
</article>
);
}
}
export default HtmlComponents;
What is the official "preferred" way to install pip and virtualenv systemwide?

macro run-time error '9': subscript out of range
When you get the error message, you have the option to click on "Debug": this will lead you to the line where the error occurred. The Dark Canuck seems to be right, and I guess the error occurs on the line:
Sheets("Sheet1").protect Password:="btfd"
because most probably the "Sheet1" does not exist. However, if you say "It works fine, but when I save the file I get the message: run-time error '9': subscription out of range" it makes me think the error occurs on the second line:
ActiveWorkbook.Save
Could you please check this by pressing the Debug button first?
And most important, as Gordon Bell says, why are you using a macro to protect a workbook?
Easy way to build Android UI?
Allow me to be the one to slap a little reality onto this topic. There is no good GUI tool for working with Android. If you're coming from a native application GUI environment like, say, Delphi, you're going to be sadly disappointed in the user experience with the ADK editor and DroidDraw. I've tried several times to work with DroidDraw in a productive way, and I always go back to rolling the XML by hand.
The ADK is a good starting point, but it's not easy to use. Positioning components within layouts is a nightmare. DroidDraw looks like it would be fantastic, but I can't even open existing, functional XML layouts with it. It somehow loses half of the layout and can't pull in the images that I've specified for buttons, backgrounds, etc.
The stark reality is that the Android developer space is in sore need of a flexible, easy-to-use, robust GUI development tool similar to those used for .NET and Delphi development.
Copy Files from Windows to the Ubuntu Subsystem

What is Python buffer type for?
An example usage:
>>> s = 'Hello world'
>>> t = buffer(s, 6, 5)
>>> t
<read-only buffer for 0x10064a4b0, size 5, offset 6 at 0x100634ab0>
>>> print t
world
The buffer in this case is a sub-string, starting at position 6 with length 5, and it doesn't take extra storage space - it references a slice of the string.
This isn't very useful for short strings like this, but it can be necessary when using large amounts of data. This example uses a mutable bytearray
:
>>> s = bytearray(1000000) # a million zeroed bytes
>>> t = buffer(s, 1) # slice cuts off the first byte
>>> s[1] = 5 # set the second element in s
>>> t[0] # which is now also the first element in t!
'\x05'
This can be very helpful if you want to have more than one view on the data and don't want to (or can't) hold multiple copies in memory.
Note that buffer
has been replaced by the better named memoryview
in Python 3, though you can use either in Python 2.7.
Note also that you can't implement a buffer interface for your own objects without delving into the C API, i.e. you can't do it in pure Python.

Can we call the function written in one JavaScript in another JS file?
If all files are included , you can call properties from one file to another (like function, variable, object etc.)
The js functions and variables that you write in one .js file -
say a.js will be available to other js files - say b.js as
long as both a.js and b.js are included in the file
using the following include mechanism(and in the same order if the function in b.js calls the one in a.js).
<script language="javascript" src="a.js"> and
<script language="javascript" src="b.js">
Using custom fonts using CSS?
To make sure that your font is cross-browser compatible, make sure that you use this syntax:
@font-face {
font-family: 'Comfortaa Regular';
src: url('Comfortaa.eot');
src: local('Comfortaa Regular'),
local('Comfortaa'),
url('Comfortaa.ttf') format('truetype'),
url('Comfortaa.svg#font') format('svg');
}

Undo working copy modifications of one file in Git?
You can use
git checkout -- file
You can do it without the --
(as suggested by nimrodm), but if the filename looks like a branch or tag (or other revision identifier), it may get confused, so using --
is best.
You can also check out a particular version of a file:
git checkout v1.2.3 -- file # tag v1.2.3
git checkout stable -- file # stable branch
git checkout origin/master -- file # upstream master
git checkout HEAD -- file # the version from the most recent commit
git checkout HEAD^ -- file # the version before the most recent commit

Create table using Javascript
I wrote a version that can parse through a list of objects dynamically to create the table as a string. I split it into three functions for writing the header columns, the body rows, and stitching it all together. I exported as a string for use on a server. My code uses template strings to keep things elegant.
If you want to add styling (like bootstrap), that can be done by adding more html to HEAD_PREFIX
and HEAD_SUFFIX
.
// helper functions
const TABLE_PREFIX = '<div><table class="tg">';
const TABLE_SUFFIX = '</table></div>';
const TABLE_HEAD_PREFIX = '<thead><tr>';
const TABLE_HEAD_SUFFIX = '</tr></thead>';
const TABLE_BODY_PREFIX = '<tbody><tr>';
const TABLE_BODY_SUFFIX = '</tr></tbody>';
function generateTableHead(cols) {
return `
${TABLE_HEAD_PREFIX}
<td>#</td>
${cols.map((col) => `<td>${col}</td>`).join('')}
${TABLE_HEAD_SUFFIX}`;
}
function generateTableBody(cols, data) {
return `
${TABLE_BODY_PREFIX}
${data.map((object, index) => `
<tr><td>${index}</td>
${cols.map((col) => `<td>${object[col]}</td>`).join('')}
</tr>`).join('')}
${TABLE_BODY_SUFFIX}`;
}
/**
* generate an html table from an array of objects with the same values
*
* @param {array<string>} cols array of object columns used in order of columns on table
* @param {array<object>} data array of objects containing data in a single depth
*/
function generateTable(data, defaultCols = false) {
let cols = defaultCols;
if (!cols) cols = Object.keys(data[0]); // auto generate columns if not defined
return `
${TABLE_PREFIX}
${generateTableHead(cols)}
${generateTableBody(cols, data)}
${TABLE_SUFFIX}`;
}
Here's an example use:
const mountains = [
{ height: 200, name: "Mt. Mountain" },
{ height: 323, name: "Old Broken Top"},
]
const htmlTableString = generateTable(mountains );
How to have Android Service communicate with Activity
There are three obvious ways to communicate with services:
- Using Intents
- Using AIDL
- Using the service object itself (as singleton)
In your case, I'd go with option 3. Make a static reference to the service it self and populate it in onCreate():
void onCreate(Intent i) {
sInstance = this;
}
Make a static function MyService getInstance()
, which returns the static sInstance
.
Then in Activity.onCreate()
you start the service, asynchronously wait until the service is actually started (you could have your service notify your app it's ready by sending an intent to the activity.) and get its instance. When you have the instance, register your service listener object to you service and you are set. NOTE: when editing Views inside the Activity you should modify them in the UI thread, the service will probably run its own Thread, so you need to call Activity.runOnUiThread()
.
The last thing you need to do is to remove the reference to you listener object in Activity.onPause()
, otherwise an instance of your activity context will leak, not good.
NOTE: This method is only useful when your application/Activity/task is the only process that will access your service. If this is not the case you have to use option 1. or 2.
fatal: ambiguous argument 'origin': unknown revision or path not in the working tree
If origin
points to a bare repository on disk, this error can happen if that directory has been moved (even if you update the working copy's remotes). For example
$ mv /path/to/origin /somewhere/else
$ git remote set-url origin /somewhere/else
$ git diff origin/master
fatal: ambiguous argument 'origin': unknown revision or path not in the working tree.
Pulling once from the new origin
solves the problem:
$ git stash
$ git pull origin master
$ git stash pop
Are there pointers in php?
PHP passes Arrays and Objects by reference (pointers). If you want to pass a normal variable Ex. $var = 'boo'; then use $boo = &$var;.
Run php function on button click
You are trying to call a javascript function. If you want to call a PHP function, you have to use for example a form:
<form action="action_page.php">
First name:<br>
<input type="text" name="firstname" value="Mickey">
<br>
Last name:<br>
<input type="text" name="lastname" value="Mouse">
<br><br>
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>
(Original Code from: http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_forms.asp)
So if you want do do a asynchron call, you could use 'Ajax' - and yeah, that's the Javascript-Way. But I think, that my code example is enough for this time :)
How to get correlation of two vectors in python
The docs indicate that numpy.correlate
is not what you are looking for:
numpy.correlate(a, v, mode='valid', old_behavior=False)[source]
Cross-correlation of two 1-dimensional sequences.
This function computes the correlation as generally defined in signal processing texts:
z[k] = sum_n a[n] * conj(v[n+k])
with a and v sequences being zero-padded where necessary and conj being the conjugate.
Instead, as the other comments suggested, you are looking for a Pearson correlation coefficient. To do this with scipy try:
from scipy.stats.stats import pearsonr
a = [1,4,6]
b = [1,2,3]
print pearsonr(a,b)
This gives
(0.99339926779878274, 0.073186395040328034)
You can also use numpy.corrcoef
:
import numpy
print numpy.corrcoef(a,b)
This gives:
[[ 1. 0.99339927]
[ 0.99339927 1. ]]
SVN - Checksum mismatch while updating
In case you are using SVN 1.7+ there is a workaround described here.
Just to recap:
- Go to the folder with the file causing problems
- Execute command
svn update --set-depth empty
(note: this will delete your files, so make a copy first!)
- Execute command
svn update --set-depth infinity
Extracting columns from text file with different delimiters in Linux
If the command should work with both tabs and spaces as the delimiter I would use awk
:
awk '{print $100,$101,$102,$103,$104,$105}' myfile > outfile
As long as you just need to specify 5 fields it is imo ok to just type them, for longer ranges you can use a for
loop:
awk '{for(i=100;i<=105;i++)print $i}' myfile > outfile
If you want to use cut
, you need to use the -f
option:
cut -f100-105 myfile > outfile
If the field delimiter is different from TAB
you need to specify it using -d
:
cut -d' ' -f100-105 myfile > outfile
Check the man page for more info on the cut command.
Where is shared_ptr?
If your'e looking bor boost's shared_ptr, you could have easily found the answer by googling shared_ptr, following the links to the docs, and pulling up a complete working example such as this.
In any case, here is a minimalistic complete working example for you which I just hacked up:
#include <boost/shared_ptr.hpp>
struct MyGizmo
{
int n_;
};
int main()
{
boost::shared_ptr<MyGizmo> p(new MyGizmo);
return 0;
}
In order for the #include
to find the header, the libraries obviously need to be in the search path. In MSVC, you set this in Project Settings>Configuration Properties>C/C++>Additional Include Directories. In my case, this is set to C:\Program Files (x86)\boost\boost_1_42
How does database indexing work?
The first time I read this it was very helpful to me. Thank you.
Since then I gained some insight about the downside of creating indexes:
if you write into a table (UPDATE
or INSERT
) with one index, you have actually two writing operations in the file system. One for the table data and another one for the index data (and the resorting of it (and - if clustered - the resorting of the table data)). If table and index are located on the same hard disk this costs more time. Thus a table without an index (a heap) , would allow for quicker write operations. (if you had two indexes you would end up with three write operations, and so on)
However, defining two different locations on two different hard disks for index data and table data can decrease/eliminate the problem of increased cost of time. This requires definition of additional file groups with according files on the desired hard disks and definition of table/index location as desired.
Another problem with indexes is their fragmentation over time as data is inserted. REORGANIZE
helps, you must write routines to have it done.
In certain scenarios a heap is more helpful than a table with indexes,
e.g:- If you have lots of rivalling writes but only one nightly read outside business hours for reporting.
Also, a differentiation between clustered and non-clustered indexes is rather important.
Helped me:- What do Clustered and Non clustered index actually mean?
Is there a way to set background-image as a base64 encoded image?
I tried this (and worked for me):
var img = 'data:image/png;base64, ...'; //place ur base64 encoded img here
document.body.style.backgroundImage = 'url(\'' + img + '\')';
ES6 syntax:
let img = 'data:image/png;base64, ...'
document.body.style.backgroundImage = `url('${img}')`
A bit better:
let setBackground = src => {
this.style.backgroundImage = `url('${src}')`
};
let node = nodeIGotFromDOM, img = imageBase64EncodedFromMyGF;
setBackground.call(node, img);
Various ways to remove local Git changes
Option 1: Discard tracked and untracked file changes
Discard changes made to both staged and unstaged files.
$ git reset --hard [HEAD]
Then discard (or remove) untracked files altogether.
$ git clean [-f]
Option 2: Stash
You can first stash your changes
$ git stash
And then either drop or pop it depending on what you want to do. See https://git-scm.com/docs/git-stash#_synopsis.
Option 3: Manually restore files to original state
First we switch to the target branch
$ git checkout <branch-name>
List all files that have changes
$ git status
Restore each file to its original state manually
$ git restore <file-path>
SQL Views - no variables?
You could use WITH to define your expressions. Then do a simple Sub-SELECT to access those definitions.
CREATE VIEW MyView
AS
WITH MyVars (SomeVar, Var2)
AS (
SELECT
'something' AS 'SomeVar',
123 AS 'Var2'
)
SELECT *
FROM MyTable
WHERE x = (SELECT SomeVar FROM MyVars)
What is the difference between a 'closure' and a 'lambda'?
There is a lot of confusion around lambdas and closures, even in the answers to this StackOverflow question here. Instead of asking random programmers who learned about closures from practice with certain programming languages or other clueless programmers, take a journey to the source (where it all began). And since lambdas and closures come from Lambda Calculus invented by Alonzo Church back in the '30s before first electronic computers even existed, this is the source I'm talking about.
Lambda Calculus is the simplest programming language in the world. The only things you can do in it:?
- APPLICATION: Applying one expression to another, denoted
f x
.
(Think of it as a function call, where f
is the function and x
is its only parameter)
- ABSTRACTION: Binds a symbol occurring in an expression to mark that this symbol is just a "slot", a blank box waiting to be filled with value, a "variable" as it were. It is done by prepending a Greek letter
?
(lambda), then the symbolic name (e.g. x
), then a dot .
before the expression. This then converts the expression into a function expecting one parameter.
For example: ?x.x+2
takes the expression x+2
and tells that the symbol x
in this expression is a bound variable – it can be substituted with a value you supply as a parameter.
Note that the function defined this way is anonymous – it doesn't have a name, so you can't refer to it yet, but you can immediately call it (remember application?) by supplying it the parameter it is waiting for, like this: (?x.x+2) 7
. Then the expression (in this case a literal value) 7
is substituted as x
in the subexpression x+2
of the applied lambda, so you get 7+2
, which then reduces to 9
by common arithmetics rules.
So we've solved one of the mysteries:
lambda is the anonymous function from the example above, ?x.x+2
.
In different programming languages, the syntax for functional abstraction (lambda) may differ. For example, in JavaScript it looks like this:
function(x) { return x+2; }
and you can immediately apply it to some parameter like this:
(function(x) { return x+2; })(7)
or you can store this anonymous function (lambda) into some variable:
var f = function(x) { return x+2; }
which effectively gives it a name f
, allowing you to refer to it and call it multiple times later, e.g.:
alert( f(7) + f(10) ); // should print 21 in the message box
But you didn't have to name it. You could call it immediately:
alert( function(x) { return x+2; } (7) ); // should print 9 in the message box
In LISP, lambdas are made like this:
(lambda (x) (+ x 2))
and you can call such a lambda by applying it immediately to a parameter:
( (lambda (x) (+ x 2)) 7 )
OK, now it's time to solve the other mystery: what is a
closure.
In order to do that, let's talk about
symbols (
variables) in lambda expressions.
As I said, what the lambda abstraction does is binding a symbol in its subexpression, so that it becomes a substitutible parameter. Such a symbol is called bound. But what if there are other symbols in the expression? For example: ?x.x/y+2
. In this expression, the symbol x
is bound by the lambda abstraction ?x.
preceding it. But the other symbol, y
, is not bound – it is free. We don't know what it is and where it comes from, so we don't know what it means and what value it represents, and therefore we cannot evaluate that expression until we figure out what y
means.
In fact, the same goes with the other two symbols, 2
and +
. It's just that we are so familiar with these two symbols that we usually forget that the computer doesn't know them and we need to tell it what they mean by defining them somewhere, e.g. in a library or the language itself.
You can think of the free symbols as defined somewhere else, outside the expression, in its "surrounding context", which is called its environment. The environment might be a bigger expression that this expression is a part of (as Qui-Gon Jinn said: "There's always a bigger fish" ;) ), or in some library, or in the language itself (as a primitive).
This lets us divide lambda expressions into two categories:
- CLOSED expressions: every symbol that occurs in these expressions is bound by some lambda abstraction. In other words, they are self-contained; they don't require any surrounding context to be evaluated. They are also called combinators.
- OPEN expressions: some symbols in these expressions are not bound – that is, some of the symbols occurring in them are free and they require some external information, and thus they cannot be evaluated until you supply the definitions of these symbols.
You can CLOSE an open lambda expression by supplying the environment, which defines all these free symbols by binding them to some values (which may be numbers, strings, anonymous functions aka lambdas, whatever…).
And here comes the closure part:
The closure of a lambda expression is this particular set of symbols defined in the outer context (environment) that give values to the free symbols in this expression, making them non-free anymore. It turns an open lambda expression, which still contains some "undefined" free symbols, into a closed one, which doesn't have any free symbols anymore.
For example, if you have the following lambda expression: ?x.x/y+2
, the symbol x
is bound, while the symbol y
is free, therefore the expression is open
and cannot be evaluated unless you say what y
means (and the same with +
and 2
, which are also free). But suppose that you also have an environment like this:
{ y: 3,
+: [built-in addition],
2: [built-in number],
q: 42,
w: 5 }
This environment supplies definitions for all the "undefined" (free) symbols from our lambda expression (y
, +
, 2
), and several extra symbols (q
, w
). The symbols that we need to be defined are this subset of the environment:
{ y: 3,
+: [built-in addition],
2: [built-in number] }
and this is precisely the closure of our lambda expression :>
In other words, it closes an open lambda expression. This is where the name closure came from in the first place, and this is why so many people's answers in this thread are not quite correct :P
So why are they mistaken? Why do so many of them say that closures are some data structures in memory, or some features of the languages they use, or why do they confuse closures with lambdas? :P
Well, the corporate marketoids of Sun/Oracle, Microsoft, Google etc. are to blame, because that's what they called these constructs in their languages (Java, C#, Go etc.). They often call "closures" what are supposed to be just lambdas. Or they call "closures" a particular technique they used to implement lexical scoping, that is, the fact that a function can access the variables that were defined in its outer scope at the time of its definition. They often say that the function "encloses" these variables, that is, captures them into some data structure to save them from being destroyed after the outer function finishes executing. But this is just made-up post factum "folklore etymology" and marketing, which only makes things more confusing, because every language vendor uses its own terminology.
And it's even worse because of the fact that there's always a bit of truth in what they say, which does not allow you to easily dismiss it as false :P Let me explain:
If you want to implement a language that uses lambdas as first-class citizens, you need to allow them to use symbols defined in their surrounding context (that is, to use free variables in your lambdas). And these symbols must be there even when the surrounding function returns. The problem is that these symbols are bound to some local storage of the function (usually on the call stack), which won't be there anymore when the function returns. Therefore, in order for a lambda to work the way you expect, you need to somehow "capture" all these free variables from its outer context and save them for later, even when the outer context will be gone. That is, you need to find the closure of your lambda (all these external variables it uses) and store it somewhere else (either by making a copy, or by preparing space for them upfront, somewhere else than on the stack). The actual method you use to achieve this goal is an "implementation detail" of your language. What's important here is the closure, which is the set of free variables from the environment of your lambda that need to be saved somewhere.
It didn't took too long for people to start calling the actual data structure they use in their language's implementations to implement closure as the "closure" itself. The structure usually looks something like this:
Closure {
[pointer to the lambda function's machine code],
[pointer to the lambda function's environment]
}
and these data structures are being passed around as parameters to other functions, returned from functions, and stored in variables, to represent lambdas, and allowing them to access their enclosing environment as well as the machine code to run in that context. But it's just a way (one of many) to implement closure, not the closure itself.
As I explained above, the closure of a lambda expression is the subset of definitions in its environment that give values to the free variables contained in that lambda expression, effectively closing the expression (turning an open lambda expression, which cannot be evaluated yet, into a closed lambda expression, which can then be evaluated, since all the symbols contained in it are now defined).
Anything else is just a "cargo cult" and "voo-doo magic" of programmers and language vendors unaware of the real roots of these notions.
I hope that answers your questions. But if you had any follow-up questions, feel free to ask them in the comments, and I'll try to explain it better.
Angular 2 Scroll to top on Route Change
If you have server side rendering, you should be careful not to run the code using windows
on the server, where that variable doesn't exist. It would result in code breaking.
export class AppComponent implements OnInit {
routerSubscription: Subscription;
constructor(private router: Router,
@Inject(PLATFORM_ID) private platformId: any) {}
ngOnInit() {
if (isPlatformBrowser(this.platformId)) {
this.routerSubscription = this.router.events
.filter(event => event instanceof NavigationEnd)
.subscribe(event => {
window.scrollTo(0, 0);
});
}
}
ngOnDestroy() {
this.routerSubscription.unsubscribe();
}
}
isPlatformBrowser
is a function used to check if the current platform where the app is rendered is a browser or not. We give it the injected platformId
.
It it also possible to check for existence of variable windows
, to be safe, like this:
if (typeof window != 'undefined')
How do I create HTML table using jQuery dynamically?
An example with a little less stringified html:
var container = $('#my-container'),
table = $('<table>');
users.forEach(function(user) {
var tr = $('<tr>');
['ID', 'Name', 'Address'].forEach(function(attr) {
tr.append('<td>' + user[attr] + '</td>');
});
table.append(tr);
});
container.append(table);
ObservableCollection Doesn't support AddRange method, so I get notified for each item added, besides what about INotifyCollectionChanging?
First of all, please vote and comment on the API request on the .NET repo.
Here's my optimized version of the ObservableRangeCollection
(optimized version of James Montemagno's one).
It performs very fast and is meant to reuse existing elements when possible and avoid unnecessary events, or batching them into one, when possible.
The ReplaceRange
method replaces/removes/adds the required elements by the appropriate indices and batches the possible events.
Tested on Xamarin.Forms UI with great results for very frequent updates to the large collection (5-7 updates per second).
Note:
Since WPF is not accustomed to work with range operations, it will throw a NotSupportedException
, when using the ObservableRangeCollection
from below in WPF UI-related work, such as binding it to a ListBox
etc. (you can still use the ObservableRangeCollection<T>
if not bound to UI).
However you can use the WpfObservableRangeCollection<T>
workaround.
The real solution would be creating a CollectionView
that knows how to deal with range operations, but I still didn't have the time to implement this.

How to normalize a NumPy array to within a certain range?
I tried following this, and got the error
TypeError: ufunc 'true_divide' output (typecode 'd') could not be coerced to provided output parameter (typecode 'l') according to the casting rule ''same_kind''
The numpy
array I was trying to normalize was an integer
array. It seems they deprecated type casting in versions > 1.10
, and you have to use numpy.true_divide()
to resolve that.
arr = np.array(img)
arr = np.true_divide(arr,[255.0],out=None)
img
was an PIL.Image
object.
Propagate all arguments in a bash shell script
Sometimes you want to pass all your arguments, but preceded by a flag (e.g. --flag
)
$ bar --flag "$1" --flag "$2" --flag "$3"
You can do this in the following way:
$ bar $(printf -- ' --flag "%s"' "$@")
note: to avoid extra field splitting, you must quote %s
and $@
, and to avoid having a single string, you cannot quote the subshell of printf
.
How to get the data-id attribute?
Surprised no one mentioned:
<select id="selectVehicle">
<option value="1" data-year="2011">Mazda</option>
<option value="2" data-year="2015">Honda</option>
<option value="3" data-year="2008">Mercedes</option>
<option value="4" data-year="2005">Toyota</option>
</select>
$("#selectVehicle").change(function () {
alert($(this).find(':selected').data("year"));
});
Here is the working example: https://jsfiddle.net/ed5axgvk/1/
Add custom message to thrown exception while maintaining stack trace in Java
You can use your exception message by:-
public class MyNullPointException extends NullPointerException {
private ExceptionCodes exceptionCodesCode;
public MyNullPointException(ExceptionCodes code) {
this.exceptionCodesCode=code;
}
@Override
public String getMessage() {
return exceptionCodesCode.getCode();
}
public class enum ExceptionCodes {
COULD_NOT_SAVE_RECORD ("cityId:001(could.not.save.record)"),
NULL_POINT_EXCEPTION_RECORD ("cityId:002(null.point.exception.record)"),
COULD_NOT_DELETE_RECORD ("cityId:003(could.not.delete.record)");
private String code;
private ExceptionCodes(String code) {
this.code = code;
}
public String getCode() {
return code;

PHP check if date between two dates
Use directly
$paymentDate = strtotime(date("d-m-Y"));
$contractDateBegin = strtotime("01-01-2001");
$contractDateEnd = strtotime("01-01-2015");
Then comparison will be ok cause your 01-01-2015 is valid for PHP's 32bit date-range, stated in strtotime's manual.
When to use malloc for char pointers
Everytime the size of the string is undetermined at compile time you have to allocate memory with malloc (or some equiviallent method). In your case you know the size of your strings at compile time (sizeof("something") and sizeof("something else")).
Remove all unused resources from an android project
There really excellent answers in here suggesting good tools
But if you are intending to remove png-drawables (or other image files), you should also consider moving all the drawable-xxxx folders out of your project into a temporary folder, then do a rebuild all, and take a look at the build message list which will tell you which ones are missing.
This can be specially useful if you want to get an overview of which resources you are effectively using and maybe replace them with an icon font or svg resources, possibly with the help of the Android Iconics library.
How do I convert between big-endian and little-endian values in C++?
If you're using Visual C++ do the following: You include intrin.h and call the following functions:
For 16 bit numbers:
unsigned short _byteswap_ushort(unsigned short value);
For 32 bit numbers:
unsigned long _byteswap_ulong(unsigned long value);
For 64 bit numbers:
unsigned __int64 _byteswap_uint64(unsigned __int64 value);
8 bit numbers (chars) don't need to be converted.
Also these are only defined for unsigned values they work for signed integers as well.
For floats and doubles it's more difficult as with plain integers as these may or not may be in the host machines byte-order. You can get little-endian floats on big-endian machines and vice versa.
Other compilers have similar intrinsics as well.
In GCC for example you can directly call some builtins as documented here:
uint32_t __builtin_bswap32 (uint32_t x)
uint64_t __builtin_bswap64 (uint64_t x)
(no need to include something). Afaik bits.h declares the same function in a non gcc-centric way as well.
16 bit swap it's just a bit-rotate.
Calling the intrinsics instead of rolling your own gives you the best performance and code density btw..
How do you write a migration to rename an ActiveRecord model and its table in Rails?
Here's an example:
class RenameOldTableToNewTable < ActiveRecord::Migration
def self.up
rename_table :old_table_name, :new_table_name
end
def self.down
rename_table :new_table_name, :old_table_name
end
end
I had to go and rename the model declaration file manually.
Edit:
In Rails 3.1 & 4, ActiveRecord::Migration::CommandRecorder
knows how to reverse rename_table migrations, so you can do this:
class RenameOldTableToNewTable < ActiveRecord::Migration
def change
rename_table :old_table_name, :new_table_name
end
end
(You still have to go through and manually rename your files.)
Can Android do peer-to-peer ad-hoc networking?

dot11DesiredBSSType = 0
edit /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf

Android: Go back to previous activity
Are you wanting to take control of the back button behavior? You can override the back button (to go to a specific activity) via one of two methods.
For Android 1.6 and below:
@Override
public boolean onKeyDown(int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {
if (keyCode == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_BACK && event.getRepeatCount() == 0) {
// do something on back.
return true;
}
return super.onKeyDown(keyCode, event);
}
Or if you are only supporting Android 2.0 or greater:
@Override
public void onBackPressed() {
// do something on back.
return;
}

Check if a div does NOT exist with javascript
Try getting the element with the ID and check if the return value is null:
document.getElementById('some_nonexistent_id') === null
If you're using jQuery, you can do:
$('#some_nonexistent_id').length === 0
What exactly do "u" and "r" string flags do, and what are raw string literals?
There are two types of string in python: the traditional str
type and the newer unicode
type. If you type a string literal without the u
in front you get the old str
type which stores 8-bit characters, and with the u
in front you get the newer unicode
type that can store any Unicode character.
The r
doesn't change the type at all, it just changes how the string literal is interpreted. Without the r
, backslashes are treated as escape characters. With the r
, backslashes are treated as literal. Either way, the type is the same.
ur
is of course a Unicode string where backslashes are literal backslashes, not part of escape codes.
You can try to convert a Unicode string to an old string using the str()
function, but if there are any unicode characters that cannot be represented in the old string, you will get an exception. You could replace them with question marks first if you wish, but of course this would cause those characters to be unreadable. It is not recommended to use the str
type if you want to correctly handle unicode characters.

writing to serial port from linux command line
SCREEN:
NOTE: screen is actually not able to send hex, as far as I know. To do that, use echo
or printf
I was using the suggestions in this post to write to a serial port, then using the info from another post to read from the port, with mixed results. I found that using screen is an "easier" solution, since it opens a terminal session directly with that port. (I put easier in quotes, because screen has a really weird interface, IMO, and takes some further reading to figure it out.)
You can issue this command to open a screen session, then anything you type will be sent to the port, plus the return values will be printed below it:
screen /dev/ttyS0 19200,cs8
(Change the above to fit your needs for speed, parity, stop bits, etc.) I realize screen isn't the "linux command line" as the post specifically asks for, but I think it's in the same spirit. Plus, you don't have to type echo and quotes every time.
ECHO:
Follow praetorian droid's answer. HOWEVER, this didn't work for me until I also used the cat command (cat < /dev/ttyS0
) while I was sending the echo command.
PRINTF:
I found that one can also use printf's '%x' command:
c="\x"$(printf '%x' 0x12)
printf $c >> $SERIAL_COMM_PORT
Again, for printf, start cat < /dev/ttyS0
before sending the command.
An invalid XML character (Unicode: 0xc) was found

for (int i = 0; i < in.length(); i++) {
current = in.charAt(i); // NOTE: No IndexOutOfBoundsException caught here; it should not happen.
if ((current == 0x9) ||
(current == 0xA) ||
(current == 0xD) ||
((current >= 0x20) && (current <= 0xD7FF)) ||
((current >= 0xE000) && (current <= 0xFFFD)) ||
((current >= 0x10000) && (current <= 0x10FFFF)))
out.append(current);
}
return out.toString();
}
Newline in JLabel
Thanks Aakash for recommending JIDE MultilineLabel. JIDE's StyledLabel is also enhanced recently to support multiple line. I would recommend it over the MultilineLabel as it has many other great features. You can check out an article on StyledLabel below. It is still free and open source.

How do I write a backslash (\) in a string?
even though this post is quite old I tried something that worked for my case .
I wanted to create a string variable with the value below:
21541_12_1_13\":null
so my approach was like that:
build the string using verbatim
string substring = @"21541_12_1_13\"":null";
and then remove the unwanted backslashes using Remove function
string newsubstring = substring.Remove(13, 1);
Hope that helps.
Cheers

Adding double quote delimiters into csv file
Double quotes can be achieved using VBA in one of two ways
First one is often the best
"...text..." & Chr(34) & "...text..."
Or the second one, which is more literal
"...text..." & """" & "...text..."
Regex for quoted string with escaping quotes
I faced a similar problem trying to remove quoted strings that may interfere with parsing of some files.
I ended up with a two-step solution that beats any convoluted regex you can come up with:
line = line.replace("\\\"","\'"); // Replace escaped quotes with something easier to handle
line = line.replaceAll("\"([^\"]*)\"","\"x\""); // Simple is beautiful
Easier to read and probably more efficient.
Difference between virtual and abstract methods
First of all you should know the difference between a virtual and abstract method.
Abstract Method
- Abstract Method resides in abstract class and it has no body.
- Abstract Method must be overridden in non-abstract child class.
Virtual Method
