Dynamic require in RequireJS, getting "Module name has not been loaded yet for context" error?
Answering to myself. From the RequireJS website:
//THIS WILL FAIL
define(['require'], function (require) {
var namedModule = require('name');
});
This fails because requirejs needs to be sure to load and execute all dependencies before calling the factory function above. [...] So, either do not pass in the dependency array, or if using the dependency array, list all the dependencies in it.
My solution:
// Modules configuration (modules that will be used as Jade helpers)
define(function () {
return {
'moment': 'path/to/moment',
'filesize': 'path/to/filesize',
'_': 'path/to/lodash',
'_s': 'path/to/underscore.string'
};
});
The loader:
define(['jade', 'lodash', 'config'], function (Jade, _, Config) {
var deps;
// Dynamic require
require(_.values(Config), function () {
deps = _.object(_.keys(Config), arguments);
// Use deps...
});
});
Prevent RequireJS from Caching Required Scripts
In production
urlArgs
can cause problems!
The principal author of requirejs prefers not to use urlArgs
:
For deployed assets, I prefer to put the version or hash for the whole
build as a build directory, then just modify the baseUrl
config used
for the project to use that versioned directory as the baseUrl
. Then
no other files change, and it helps avoid some proxy issues where they
may not cache an URL with a query string on it.
[Styling mine.]
I follow this advice.
In development
I prefer to use a server that intelligently caches files that may change frequently: a server that emits Last-Modified
and responds to If-Modified-Since
with 304 when appropriate. Even a server based on Node's express set to serve static files does this right out the box. It does not require doing anything to my browser, and does not mess up breakpoints.
Mismatched anonymous define() module
I had this error because I included the requirejs file along with other librairies included directly in a script tag. Those librairies (like lodash) used a define function that was conflicting with require's define. The requirejs file was loading asynchronously so I suspect that the require's define was defined after the other libraries define, hence the conflict.
To get rid of the error, include all your other js files by using requirejs.
Relation between CommonJS, AMD and RequireJS?
RequireJS implements the AMD API (source).
CommonJS is a way of defining modules with the help of an exports
object, that defines the module contents. Simply put, a CommonJS implementation might work like this:
// someModule.js
exports.doSomething = function() { return "foo"; };
//otherModule.js
var someModule = require('someModule'); // in the vein of node
exports.doSomethingElse = function() { return someModule.doSomething() + "bar"; };
Basically, CommonJS specifies that you need to have a require()
function to fetch dependencies, an exports
variable to export module contents and a module identifier (which describes the location of the module in question in relation to this module) that is used to require the dependencies (source). CommonJS has various implementations, including Node.js, which you mentioned.
CommonJS was not particularly designed with browsers in mind, so it doesn't fit in the browser environment very well (I really have no source for this--it just says so everywhere, including the RequireJS site.) Apparently, this has something to do with asynchronous loading, etc.
On the other hand, RequireJS implements AMD, which is designed to suit the browser environment (source). Apparently, AMD started as a spinoff of the CommonJS Transport format and evolved into its own module definition API. Hence the similarities between the two. The new feature in AMD is the define()
function that allows the module to declare its dependencies before being loaded. For example, the definition could be:
define('module/id/string', ['module', 'dependency', 'array'],
function(module, factory function) {
return ModuleContents;
});
So, CommonJS and AMD are JavaScript module definition APIs that have different implementations, but both come from the same origins.
- AMD is more suited for the browser, because it supports asynchronous loading of module dependencies.
- RequireJS is an implementation of AMD, while at the same time trying to keep the spirit of CommonJS (mainly in the module identifiers).
To confuse you even more, RequireJS, while being an AMD implementation, offers a CommonJS wrapper so CommonJS modules can almost directly be imported for use with RequireJS.
define(function(require, exports, module) {
var someModule = require('someModule'); // in the vein of node
exports.doSomethingElse = function() { return someModule.doSomething() + "bar"; };
});
I hope this helps to clarify things!
Does it make sense to use Require.js with Angular.js?
Yes it makes sense to use requireJS with Angular, I spent several days to test several technical solutions.
I made an Angular Seed with RequireJS on Server Side. Very simple one.
I use SHIM notation for no AMD module and not AMD because I think it's very difficult to deal with two different Dependency injection system.
I use grunt and r.js to concatenate js files on server depends on the SHIM configuration (dependency) file. So I refer only one js file in my app.
For more information go on my github Angular Seed :

Excluding files/directories from Gulp task
Gulp uses micromatch under the hood for matching globs, so if you want to exclude any of the .min.js files, you can achieve the same by using an extended globbing feature like this:
src("'js/**/!(*.min).js")
Basically what it says is: grab everything at any level inside of js that doesn't end with *.min.js
Text vertical alignment in WPF TextBlock
The TextBlock doesn't support vertical text alignment.
I work around this by wrapping the text block with a Grid and setting HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" and VerticalAlignment="Center".
Like this:
<Grid>
<TextBlock
HorizontalAlignment="Stretch"
VerticalAlignment="Center"
Text="Your text" />
</Grid>
python dataframe pandas drop column using int
You need to identify the columns based on their position in dataframe. For example, if you want to drop (del) column number 2,3 and 5, it will be,
df.drop(df.columns[[2,3,5]], axis = 1)
load iframe in bootstrap modal
You can simply use this bootstrap helper to dialogs (only 5 kB)
it has support for ajax request, iframes, common dialogs, confirm and prompt!
you can use it as:
eModal.iframe('http://someUrl.com', 'This is a tile for iframe', callbackIfNeeded);
eModal.alert('The message', 'This title');
eModal.ajax('/mypage.html', 'This is a ajax', callbackIfNeeded);
eModal.confirm('the question', 'The title', theMandatoryCallback);
eModal.prompt('Form question', 'This is a ajax', theMandatoryCallback);
this provide a loading progress while loading the iframe!
No html required.
You can use a object literal as parameter to extra options.
Check the site form more details.

How to import a module given the full path?
For Python 3.5+ use:
import importlib.util
spec = importlib.util.spec_from_file_location("module.name", "/path/to/file.py")
foo = importlib.util.module_from_spec(spec)
spec.loader.exec_module(foo)
foo.MyClass()
For Python 3.3 and 3.4 use:
from importlib.machinery import SourceFileLoader
foo = SourceFileLoader("module.name", "/path/to/file.py").load_module()
foo.MyClass()
(Although this has been deprecated in Python 3.4.)
For Python 2 use:
import imp
foo = imp.load_source('module.name', '/path/to/file.py')
foo.MyClass()
There are equivalent convenience functions for compiled Python files and DLLs.
See also http://bugs.python.org/issue21436.
What's the difference between :: (double colon) and -> (arrow) in PHP?
When the left part is an object instance, you use ->
. Otherwise, you use ::
.
This means that ->
is mostly used to access instance members (though it can also be used to access static members, such usage is discouraged), while ::
is usually used to access static members (though in a few special cases, it's used to access instance members).
In general, ::
is used for scope resolution, and it may have either a class name, parent
, self
, or (in PHP 5.3) static
to its left. parent
refers to the scope of the superclass of the class where it's used; self
refers to the scope of the class where it's used; static
refers to the "called scope" (see late static bindings).
The rule is that a call with ::
is an instance call if and only if:
- the target method is not declared as static and
- there is a compatible object context at the time of the call, meaning these must be true:
- the call is made from a context where
$this
exists and
- the class of
$this
is either the class of the method being called or a subclass of it.
Example:
class A {
public function func_instance() {
echo "in ", __METHOD__, "\n";
}
public function callDynamic() {
echo "in ", __METHOD__, "\n";
B::dyn();
}
}
class B extends A {
public static $prop_static = 'B::$prop_static value';
public $prop_instance = 'B::$prop_instance value';
public function func_instance() {
echo "in ", __METHOD__, "\n";
/* this is one exception where :: is required to access an
* instance member.
* The super implementation of func_instance is being
* accessed here */
parent::func_instance();
A::func_instance(); //same as the statement above
}
public static function func_static() {
echo "in ", __METHOD__, "\n";
}
public function __call($name, $arguments) {
echo "in dynamic $name (__call)", "\n";
}
public static function __callStatic($name, $arguments) {
echo "in dynamic $name (__callStatic)", "\n";
}
}
echo 'B::$prop_static: ', B::$prop_static, "\n";
echo 'B::func_static(): ', B::func_static(), "\n";
$a = new A;
$b = new B;
echo '$b->prop_instance: ', $b->prop_instance, "\n";
//not recommended (static method called as instance method):
echo '$b->func_static(): ', $b->func_static(), "\n";
echo '$b->func_instance():', "\n", $b->func_instance(), "\n";
/* This is more tricky
* in the first case, a static call is made because $this is an
* instance of A, so B::dyn() is a method of an incompatible class
*/
echo '$a->dyn():', "\n", $a->callDynamic(), "\n";
/* in this case, an instance call is made because $this is an
* instance of B (despite the fact we are in a method of A), so
* B::dyn() is a method of a compatible class (namely, it's the
* same class as the object's)
*/
echo '$b->dyn():', "\n", $b->callDynamic(), "\n";
Output:
B::$prop_static: B::$prop_static value
B::func_static(): in B::func_static
$b->prop_instance: B::$prop_instance value
$b->func_static(): in B::func_static
$b->func_instance():
in B::func_instance
in A::func_instance
in A::func_instance
$a->dyn():
in A::callDynamic
in dynamic dyn (__callStatic)
$b->dyn():
in A::callDynamic
in dynamic dyn (__call)
Copy or rsync command
For a local copy, the only advantage of rsync is that it will avoid copying if the file already exists in the destination directory. The definition of "already exists" is (a) same file name (b) same size (c) same timestamp. (Maybe same owner/group; I am not sure...)
The "rsync algorithm" is great for incremental updates of a file over a slow network link, but it will not buy you much for a local copy, as it needs to read the existing (partial) file to run it's "diff" computation.
So if you are running this sort of command frequently, and the set of changed files is small relative to the total number of files, you should find that rsync is faster than cp. (Also rsync has a --delete
option that you might find useful.)
How do I put double quotes in a string in vba?
I find the easiest way is to double up on the quotes to handle a quote.
Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("A1").Formula = "IF(Sheet1!A1=0,"""",Sheet1!A1)"
Some people like to use CHR(34)*:
Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("A1").Formula = "IF(Sheet1!A1=0," & CHR(34) & CHR(34) & ",Sheet1!A1)"
*Note: CHAR() is used as an Excel cell formula, e.g. writing "=CHAR(34)" in a cell, but for VBA code you use the CHR() function.
Viewing all defined variables
As RedBlueThing and analog said:
dir()
gives a list of in scope variables
globals()
gives a dictionary of global variables
locals()
gives a dictionary of local variables
Using the interactive shell (version 2.6.9), after creating variables a = 1
and b = 2
, running dir()
gives
['__builtins__', '__doc__', '__name__', '__package__', 'a', 'b']
running locals()
gives
{'a': 1, 'b': 2, '__builtins__': <module '__builtin__' (built-in)>, '__package__': None, '__name__': '__main__', '__doc__': None}
Running globals()
gives exactly the same answer as locals()
in this case.
I haven't gotten into any modules, so all the variables are available as both local and global variables. locals()
and globals()
list the values of the variables as well as the names; dir()
only lists the names.
If I import a module and run locals()
or globals()
inside the module, dir()
still gives only a small number of variables; it adds __file__
to the variables listed above. locals()
and globals()
also list the same variables, but in the process of printing out the dictionary value for __builtin__
, it lists a far larger number of variables: built-in functions, exceptions, and types such as "'type': <type 'type'>
", rather than just the brief <module '__builtin__' (built-in)>
as shown above.
For more about dir()
see Python 2.7 quick reference at New Mexico Tech or the dir() function at ibiblio.org.
For more about locals()
and globals()
see locals and globals at Dive Into Python and a page about globals at New Mexico Tech.
[Comment: @Kurt: You gave a link to enumerate-or-list-all-variables-in-a-program-of-your-favorite-language-here but that answer has a mistake in it. The problem there is: type(name)
in that example will always return <type 'str'>
. You do get a list of the variables, which answers the question, but with incorrect types listed beside them. This was not obvious in your example because all the variables happened to be strings anyway; however, what it's returning is the type of the name of the variable instead of the type of the variable. To fix this: instead of print type(name)
use print eval('type(' + name + ')')
. I apologize for posting a comment in the answer section but I don't have comment posting privileges, and the other question is closed.]
How do I divide in the Linux console?
Something else you could do using raytrace's answer. You could use the stdout of another shell call using backticks to then do some calculations. For instance I wanted to know the file size of the top 100 lines from a couple of files. The original size from wc -c
is in bytes, I want to know kilobytes. Here's what I did:
echo `cat * | head -n 100 | wc -c` / 1024 | bc -l
How do I concatenate two lists in Python?
You could use the append()
method defined on list
objects:
mergedlist =[]
for elem in listone:
mergedlist.append(elem)
for elem in listtwo:
mergedlist.append(elem)
Property [title] does not exist on this collection instance
A person might get this while working with factory functions, so I can confirm this is valid syntax:
$user = factory(User::class, 1)->create()->first();
You might see the collection instance error if you do something like:
$user = factory(User::class, 1)->create()->id;
so change it to:
$user = factory(User::class, 1)->create()->first()->id;

Which ORM should I use for Node.js and MySQL?
First off, please note that I haven't used either of them (but have used Node.js).
Both libraries are documented quite well and have a
stable API. However, persistence.js seems to be used in more projects. I don't know if all of them still use it, though.
The developer of sequelize sometimes blogs about it at blog.depold.com. When you'd like to use primary keys as foreign keys, you'll need the patch that's described in this blog post. If you'd like help for persistence.js there is a google group devoted to it.
From the examples I gather that sequelize is a bit more JavaScript-like (more sugar) than persistance.js but has support for fewer datastores (only MySQL, while persistance.js can even use in-browser stores).
I think that sequelize might be the way to go for you, as you only need MySQL support. However, if you need some convenient features (for instance search) or want to use a different database later on you'd need to use persistence.js.
How to take last four characters from a varchar?
tested solution on hackerrank....
select distinct(city) from station

How to measure time elapsed on Javascript?
var seconds = 0;
setInterval(function () {
seconds++;
}, 1000);
There you go, now you have a variable counting seconds elapsed. Since I don't know the context, you'll have to decide whether you want to attach that variable to an object or make it global.
Set interval is simply a function that takes a function as it's first parameter and a number of milliseconds to repeat the function as it's second parameter.
You could also solve this by saving and comparing times.
EDIT: This answer will provide very inconsistent results due to things such as the event loop and the way browsers may choose to pause or delay processing when a page is in a background tab. I strongly recommend using the accepted answer.
Vector of structs initialization
You may also which to use aggregate initialization from a braced initialization list for situations like these.
#include <vector>
using namespace std;
struct subject {
string name;
int marks;
int credits;
};
int main() {
vector<subject> sub {
{"english", 10, 0},
{"math" , 20, 5}
};
}
Sometimes however, the members of a struct may not be so simple, so you must give the compiler a hand in deducing its types.
So extending on the above.
#include <vector>
using namespace std;
struct assessment {
int points;
int total;
float percentage;
};
struct subject {
string name;
int marks;
int credits;
vector<assessment> assessments;
};
int main() {
vector<subject> sub {
{"english", 10, 0, {
assessment{1,3,0.33f},
assessment{2,3,0.66f},
assessment{3,3,1.00f}
}},
{"math" , 20, 5, {
assessment{2,4,0.50f}
}}
};
}
Without the assessment
in the braced initializer the compiler will fail when attempting to deduce the type.
The above has been compiled and tested with gcc in c++17. It should however work from c++11 and onward. In c++20 we may see the designator syntax, my hope is that it will allow for for the following
{"english", 10, 0, .assessments{
{1,3,0.33f},
{2,3,0.66f},
{3,3,1.00f}
}},

Returning JSON object from an ASP.NET page
If you get code behind, use some like this
MyCustomObject myObject = new MyCustomObject();
myObject.name='try';
//OBJECT -> JSON
var javaScriptSerializer = new System.Web.Script.Serialization.JavaScriptSerializer();
string myObjectJson = javaScriptSerializer.Serialize(myObject);
//return JSON
Response.Clear();
Response.ContentType = "application/json; charset=utf-8";
Response.Write(myObjectJson );
Response.End();
So you return a json object serialized with all attributes of MyCustomObject.
What does 'useLegacyV2RuntimeActivationPolicy' do in the .NET 4 config?
After a bit of time (and more searching), I found this blog entry by Jomo Fisher.
One of the recent problems we’ve seen is that, because of the support for side-by-side runtimes, .NET 4.0 has changed the way that it binds to older mixed-mode assemblies. These assemblies are, for example, those that are compiled from C++\CLI. Currently available DirectX assemblies are mixed mode. If you see a message like this then you know you have run into the issue:
Mixed mode assembly is built against version 'v1.1.4322' of the runtime and cannot be loaded in the 4.0 runtime without additional configuration information.
[Snip]
The good news for applications is that you have the option of falling back to .NET 2.0 era binding for these assemblies by setting an app.config flag like so:
<startup useLegacyV2RuntimeActivationPolicy="true">
<supportedRuntime version="v4.0"/>
</startup>
So it looks like the way the runtime loads mixed-mode assemblies has changed. I can't find any details about this change, or why it was done. But the useLegacyV2RuntimeActivationPolicy
attribute reverts back to CLR 2.0 loading.
How to position one element relative to another with jQuery?
This is what worked for me in the end.
var showMenu = function(el, menu) {
//get the position of the placeholder element
var pos = $(el).offset();
var eWidth = $(el).outerWidth();
var mWidth = $(menu).outerWidth();
var left = (pos.left + eWidth - mWidth) + "px";
var top = 3+pos.top + "px";
//show the menu directly over the placeholder
$(menu).css( {
position: 'absolute',
zIndex: 5000,
left: left,
top: top
} );
$(menu).hide().fadeIn();
};
Making a UITableView scroll when text field is selected

.
Remove duplicates in the list using linq
If there is something that is throwing off your Distinct query, you might want to look at MoreLinq and use the DistinctBy operator and select distinct objects by id.
var distinct = items.DistinctBy( i => i.Id );
Read/write to file using jQuery
No, JavaScript doesn't have access to writing files as this would be a huge security risk to say the least. If you wanted to get/store information server-side, though, you can certainly make an Ajax call to a PHP/ASP/Python/etc. script that can then get/store the data in the server. If you meant store data on the client machine, this is impossible with JavaScript alone. I suspect Flash/Java may be able to, but I am not sure.
If you are only trying to store a small amount of information for an unreliable period of time regarding a specific user, I think you want Web Storage API or cookies. I am not sure from your question what you are trying to accomplish, though.
Android: How do I get string from resources using its name?
Verify if your packageName is correct. You have to refer for the root package of your Android application.

String packageName = getPackageName();
int resId = getResources().getIdentifier(aString, "string", packageName);
return getString(resId);
}
jQuery-UI datepicker default date
Jquery Datepicker defaultDate ONLY set the default date that you chose on the calendar that pops up when you click on your field.
If you want the default date to APPEAR on your input before the user clicks on the field you should give a val() to your field.
Something like this:
$("#searchDateFrom").datepicker({ defaultDate: "-1y -1m -6d" });
$("#searchDateFrom").val((date.getMonth()) + '/' + (date.getDate() - 6) + '/' + (date.getFullYear() - 1));
What does `return` keyword mean inside `forEach` function?
The return
exits the current function, but the iterations keeps on, so you get the "next" item that skips the if
and alerts the 4...
If you need to stop the looping, you should just use a plain for
loop like so:
$('button').click(function () {
var arr = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];
for(var i = 0; i < arr.length; i++) {
var n = arr[i];
if (n == 3) {
break;
}
alert(n);
})
})

Stopping an Android app from console
If you have access to the application package, then you can install with the -r option and it will kill the process if it is currently running as a side effect. Like this:
adb -d install -r MyApp.apk ; adb -d shell am start -a android.intent.action.MAIN -n com.MyCompany.MyApp/.MyActivity
The -r option preserves the data currently associated with the app. However, if you want a clean slate like you mention you might not want to use that option.

$("#ShowButton").text("Hide Filter");
}
else {

$find('<%=FileAdminRadGrid.ClientID %>').get_masterTableView().hideFilterItem();
$("#ShowButton").text("Show Filter");
}}
Magento addFieldToFilter: Two fields, match as OR, not AND
I also tried to get the field1 = 'a' OR field2 = 'b'
Your code didn't work for me.
Here is my solution
$results = Mage::getModel('xyz/abc')->getCollection();
$results->addFieldToSelect('name');
$results->addFieldToSelect('keywords');
$results->addOrder('name','ASC');
$results->setPageSize(5);
$results->getSelect()->where("keywords like '%foo%' or additional_keywords like '%bar%'");
$results->load();
echo json_encode($results->toArray());
It gives me
SELECT name, keywords FROM abc WHERE keywords like '%foo%' OR additional_keywords like '%bar%'
.
It is maybe not the "magento's way" but I was stuck 5 hours on that.
Hope it will help

Difference between _self, _top, and _parent in the anchor tag target attribute
Section 6.16 Frame target names in the HTML 4.01 spec defines the meanings, but it is partly outdated. It refers to “windows”, whereas HTML5 drafts more realistically speak about “browsing contexts”, since modern browsers often use tabs instead of windows in this context.
Briefly, _self
is the default (current browsing context, i.e. current window or tab), so it is useful only to override a <base target=...>
setting. The value _parent
refers to the frameset that is the parent of the current frame, whereas _top
“breaks out of all frames” and opens the linked document in the entire browser window.
How to change the color of a CheckBox?
You can use the following two properties in "colors.xml"
<color name="colorControlNormal">#eeeeee</color>
<color name="colorControlActivated">#eeeeee</color>
colorControlNormal is for the normal view of checkbox, and colorControlActivated is for when the checkbox is checked.
SQL Stored Procedure set variables using SELECT
One advantage your current approach does have is that it will raise an error if multiple rows are returned by the predicate. To reproduce that you can use.
SELECT @currentTerm = currentterm,
@termID = termid,
@endDate = enddate
FROM table1
WHERE iscurrent = 1
IF( @@ROWCOUNT <> 1 )
BEGIN
RAISERROR ('Unexpected number of matching rows',
16,
1)
RETURN
END
Example of AES using Crypto++
Official document of Crypto++ AES is a good start. And from my archive, a basic implementation of AES is as follows:
Please refer here with more explanation, I recommend you first understand the algorithm and then try to understand each line step by step.
#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>
#include "modes.h"
#include "aes.h"
#include "filters.h"
int main(int argc, char* argv[]) {
//Key and IV setup
//AES encryption uses a secret key of a variable length (128-bit, 196-bit or 256-
//bit). This key is secretly exchanged between two parties before communication
//begins. DEFAULT_KEYLENGTH= 16 bytes
CryptoPP::byte key[ CryptoPP::AES::DEFAULT_KEYLENGTH ], iv[ CryptoPP::AES::BLOCKSIZE ];
memset( key, 0x00, CryptoPP::AES::DEFAULT_KEYLENGTH );
memset( iv, 0x00, CryptoPP::AES::BLOCKSIZE );
//
// String and Sink setup
//
std::string plaintext = "Now is the time for all good men to come to the aide...";
std::string ciphertext;
std::string decryptedtext;
//
// Dump Plain Text
//
std::cout << "Plain Text (" << plaintext.size() << " bytes)" << std::endl;
std::cout << plaintext;
std::cout << std::endl << std::endl;
//
// Create Cipher Text
//
CryptoPP::AES::Encryption aesEncryption(key, CryptoPP::AES::DEFAULT_KEYLENGTH);
CryptoPP::CBC_Mode_ExternalCipher::Encryption cbcEncryption( aesEncryption, iv );
CryptoPP::StreamTransformationFilter stfEncryptor(cbcEncryption, new CryptoPP::StringSink( ciphertext ) );
stfEncryptor.Put( reinterpret_cast<const unsigned char*>( plaintext.c_str() ), plaintext.length() );
stfEncryptor.MessageEnd();
//
// Dump Cipher Text
//
std::cout << "Cipher Text (" << ciphertext.size() << " bytes)" << std::endl;
for( int i = 0; i < ciphertext.size(); i++ ) {
std::cout << "0x" << std::hex << (0xFF & static_cast<CryptoPP::byte>(ciphertext[i])) << " ";
}
std::cout << std::endl << std::endl;
//
// Decrypt
//
CryptoPP::AES::Decryption aesDecryption(key, CryptoPP::AES::DEFAULT_KEYLENGTH);
CryptoPP::CBC_Mode_ExternalCipher::Decryption cbcDecryption( aesDecryption, iv );
CryptoPP::StreamTransformationFilter stfDecryptor(cbcDecryption, new CryptoPP::StringSink( decryptedtext ) );
stfDecryptor.Put( reinterpret_cast<const unsigned char*>( ciphertext.c_str() ), ciphertext.size() );
stfDecryptor.MessageEnd();
//
// Dump Decrypted Text
//
std::cout << "Decrypted Text: " << std::endl;
std::cout << decryptedtext;
std::cout << std::endl << std::endl;
return 0;

How to override and extend basic Django admin templates?
if you need to overwrite the admin/index.html
, you can set the index_template parameter of the AdminSite
.
e.g.
# urls.py
...
from django.contrib import admin
admin.site.index_template = 'admin/my_custom_index.html'
admin.autodiscover()
and place your template in <appname>/templates/admin/my_custom_index.html
C# how to use enum with switch
All the other answers are correct, but you also need to call your method correctly:
Calculate(5, 5, Operator.PLUS))
And since you use int
for left
and right
, the result will be int
as well (3/2 will result in 1
). you could cast to double
before calculating the result or modify your parameters to accept double
Python integer division yields float
Hope it might help someone instantly.
Behavior of Division Operator in Python 2.7 and Python 3
In Python 2.7: By default, division operator will return integer output.
to get the result in double multiple 1.0 to "dividend or divisor"
100/35 => 2 #(Expected is 2.857142857142857)
(100*1.0)/35 => 2.857142857142857
100/(35*1.0) => 2.857142857142857
In Python 3
// => used for integer output
/ => used for double output
100/35 => 2.857142857142857
100//35 => 2
100.//35 => 2.0 # floating-point result if divsor or dividend real
Bash: Echoing a echo command with a variable in bash
echo "echo "we are now going to work with ${ser}" " >> $servfile
Escape all " within quotes with \. Do this with variables like \$servicetest too:

echo "read -p \"Please enter a service: \" ser " >> $servfile
echo "if [ \$servicetest > /dev/null ];then " >> $servfile
Complex CSS selector for parent of active child
Unfortunately, there's no way to do that with CSS.
It's not very difficult with JavaScript though:
// JavaScript code:
document.getElementsByClassName("active")[0].parentNode;
// jQuery code:
$('.active').parent().get(0); // This would be the <a>'s parent <li>.
Remove a specific string from an array of string
Arrays in Java aren't dynamic, like collection classes. If you want a true collection that supports dynamic addition and deletion, use ArrayList<>. If you still want to live with vanilla arrays, find the index of string, construct a new array with size one less than the original, and use System.arraycopy()
to copy the elements before and after. Or write a copy loop with skip by hand, on small arrays the difference will be negligible.
Is it possible to set a timeout for an SQL query on Microsoft SQL server?
I might suggest 2 things.
1)
If your query takes a lot of time because it´s using several tables that might involve locks, a quite fast solution is to run your queries with the "NoLock" hint.
Simply add Select * from YourTable WITH (NOLOCK)
in all your table references an that will prevent your query to block for concurrent transactions.
2) if you want to be sure that all of your queries runs in (let´s say) less than 5 seconds, then you could add what @talha proposed, that worked sweet for me
Just add at the top of your execution
SET LOCK_TIMEOUT 5000; --5 seconds.
And that will cause that your query takes less than 5 or fail. Then you should catch the exception and rollback if needed.
Hope it helps.
How to set min-font-size in CSS
CSS Solution:
.h2{
font-size: 2vw
}
@media (min-width: 700px) {
.h2{
/* Minimum font size */
font-size: 14px
}
}
@media (max-width: 1200px) {
.h2{
/* Maximum font size */
font-size: 24px
}
}
Just in case if some need scss mixin:
///
/// Viewport sized typography with minimum and maximum values
///
/// @author Eduardo Boucas (@eduardoboucas)
///
/// @param {Number} $responsive - Viewport-based size
/// @param {Number} $min - Minimum font size (px)
/// @param {Number} $max - Maximum font size (px)
/// (optional)
/// @param {Number} $fallback - Fallback for viewport-
/// based units (optional)
///
/// @example scss - 5vw font size (with 50px fallback),
/// minumum of 35px and maximum of 150px
/// @include responsive-font(5vw, 35px, 150px, 50px);
///
@mixin responsive-font($responsive, $min, $max: false, $fallback: false) {
$responsive-unitless: $responsive / ($responsive - $responsive + 1);
$dimension: if(unit($responsive) == 'vh', 'height', 'width');
$min-breakpoint: $min / $responsive-unitless * 100;
@media (max-#{$dimension}: #{$min-breakpoint}) {
font-size: $min;
}
@if $max {
$max-breakpoint: $max / $responsive-unitless * 100;
@media (min-#{$dimension}: #{$max-breakpoint}) {
font-size: $max;
}
}
@if $fallback {
font-size: $fallback;
}

How to get Android application id?
Else you can get id of process your application runs in:
final static int android.os.Process.myPid()
Returns the identifier of this process, which can be used with killProcess(int) and sendSignal(int, int).
Position an element relative to its container
If you need to position an element relative to its containing element first you need to add position: relative
to the container element. The child element you want to position relatively to the parent has to have position: absolute
. The way that absolute positioning works is that it is done relative to the first relatively (or absolutely) positioned parent element. In case there is no relatively positioned parent, the element will be positioned relative to the root element (directly to the HTML element).
So if you want to position your child element to the top left of the parent container, you should do this:
.parent {
position: relative;
}
.child {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
}

How can I delete a file from a Git repository?
More generally, git help
will help with at least simple questions like this:
zhasper@berens:/media/Kindle/documents$ git help
usage: git [--version] [--exec-path[=GIT_EXEC_PATH]] [--html-path] [-p|--paginate|--no-pager] [--bare] [--git-dir=GIT_DIR] [--work-tree=GIT_WORK_TREE] [--help] COMMAND [ARGS]
The most commonly used git commands are:
add Add file contents to the index
:
rm Remove files from the working tree and from the index
Trim Whitespaces (New Line and Tab space) in a String in Oracle
In cases where the Oracle solution seems overly convoluted, I create a java class with static methods and then install it as a package in Oracle. This might not be as performant, but you will eventually find other cases (date conversion to milliseconds for example) where you will find the java fallback helpful.
How to call C++ function from C?
I would do it in the following way:
(If working with MSVC, ignore the GCC compilation commands)
Suppose that I have a C++ class named AAA, defined in files aaa.h, aaa.cpp, and that the class AAA has a method named sayHi(const char *name), that I want to enable for C code.
The C++ code of class AAA - Pure C++, I don't modify it:
aaa.h
#ifndef AAA_H
#define AAA_H
class AAA {
public:
AAA();
void sayHi(const char *name);
};
#endif
aaa.cpp
#include <iostream>
#include "aaa.h"
AAA::AAA() {
}
void AAA::sayHi(const char *name) {
std::cout << "Hi " << name << std::endl;
}
Compiling this class as regularly done for C++. This code "does not know" that it is going to be used by C code. Using the command:
g++ -fpic -shared aaa.cpp -o libaaa.so
Now, also in C++, creating a C connector. Defining it in files aaa_c_connector.h, aaa_c_connector.cpp. This connector is going to define a C function, named AAA_sayHi(cosnt char *name), that will use an instance of AAA and will call its method:
aaa_c_connector.h
#ifndef AAA_C_CONNECTOR_H
#define AAA_C_CONNECTOR_H
#ifdef __cplusplus
extern "C" {
#endif
void AAA_sayHi(const char *name);
#ifdef __cplusplus
}
#endif
#endif
aaa_c_connector.cpp
#include <cstdlib>
#include "aaa_c_connector.h"
#include "aaa.h"
#ifdef __cplusplus
extern "C" {
#endif
// Inside this "extern C" block, I can implement functions in C++, which will externally
// appear as C functions (which means that the function IDs will be their names, unlike
// the regular C++ behavior, which allows defining multiple functions with the same name
// (overloading) and hence uses function signature hashing to enforce unique IDs),
static AAA *AAA_instance = NULL;
void lazyAAA() {
if (AAA_instance == NULL) {
AAA_instance = new AAA();
}
}
void AAA_sayHi(const char *name) {
lazyAAA();
AAA_instance->sayHi(name);
}
#ifdef __cplusplus
}
#endif
Compiling it, again, using a regular C++ compilation command:
g++ -fpic -shared aaa_c_connector.cpp -L. -laaa -o libaaa_c_connector.so
Now I have a shared library (libaaa_c_connector.so), that implements the C function AAA_sayHi(const char *name). I can now create a C main file and compile it all together:
main.c
#include "aaa_c_connector.h"
int main() {
AAA_sayHi("David");
AAA_sayHi("James");
return 0;
}
Compiling it using a C compilation command:
gcc main.c -L. -laaa_c_connector -o c_aaa
I will need to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to contain $PWD, and if I run the executable ./c_aaa, I will get the output I expect:
Hi David
Hi James
EDIT:
On some linux distributions, -laaa
and -lstdc++
may also be required for the last compilation command. Thanks to @AlaaM. for the attention
How to test multiple variables against a value?
You can unite this
x = 0
y = 1
z = 3
in one variable.
In [1]: xyz = (0,1,3,)
In [2]: mylist = []
Change our conditions as:
In [3]: if 0 in xyz:
...: mylist.append("c")
...: if 1 in xyz:
...: mylist.append("d")
...: if 2 in xyz:
...: mylist.append("e")
...: if 3 in xyz:
...: mylist.append("f")
Output:
In [21]: mylist
Out[21]: ['c', 'd', 'f']
GIT: Checkout to a specific folder
I'm using this alias for checking out a branch in a temporary directory:
[alias]
cot = "!TEMP=$(mktemp -d); f() { git worktree prune && git worktree add $TEMP $1 && zsh -c \"cd $TEMP; zsh\";}; f" # checkout branch in temporary directory
Usage:
git cot mybranch
You are then dropped in a new shell in the temporary directory where you can work on the branch. You can even use git commands in this directory.
When you're done, delete the directory and run:
git worktree prune
This is also done automatically in the alias, before adding a new worktree.
How to get disk capacity and free space of remote computer
Another way is casting a string to a WMI object:
$size = ([wmi]"\\remotecomputer\root\cimv2:Win32_logicalDisk.DeviceID='c:'").Size
$free = ([wmi]"\\remotecomputer\root\cimv2:Win32_logicalDisk.DeviceID='c:'").FreeSpace
Also you can divide the results by 1GB or 1MB if you want different units:
$disk = ([wmi]"\\remotecomputer\root\cimv2:Win32_logicalDisk.DeviceID='c:'")
"Remotecomputer C: has {0:#.0} GB free of {1:#.0} GB Total" -f ($disk.FreeSpace/1GB),($disk.Size/1GB) | write-output
Output is: Remotecomputer C: has 252.7 GB free of 298.0 GB Total
How to find the largest file in a directory and its subdirectories?
There is no simple command available to find out the largest files/directories on a Linux/UNIX/BSD filesystem. However, combination of following three commands (using pipes) you can easily find out list of largest files:
# du -a /var | sort -n -r | head -n 10
If you want more human readable output try:
$ cd /path/to/some/var
$ du -hsx * | sort -rh | head -10
Where,
- Var is the directory you wan to search
- du command -h option : display sizes in human readable format (e.g.,
1K, 234M, 2G).
- du command -s option : show only a total for each
argument (summary).
- du command -x option : skip directories on
different file systems.
- sort command -r option : reverse the result
of comparisons.
- sort command -h option : compare human readable
numbers. This is GNU sort specific option only.
- head command -10 OR -n 10 option : show the first 10 lines.
Which port(s) does XMPP use?
The ports required will be different for your XMPP Server and any XMPP Clients. Most "modern" XMPP Servers follow the defined IANA Ports for Server-to-Server 5269 and for Client-to-Server 5222. Any additional ports depends on what features you enable on the Server, i.e. if you offer BOSH then you may need to open port 80.
File Transfer is highly dependent on both the Clients you use and the Server as to what port it will use, but most of them also negotiate the connect via your existing XMPP Client-to-Server link so the required port opening will be client side (or proxied via port 80.)
Test class with a new() call in it with Mockito
For the future I would recommend Eran Harel's answer (refactoring moving new
to factory that can be mocked). But if you don't want to change the original source code, use very handy and unique feature: spies. From the documentation:
You can create spies of real objects. When you use the spy then the real methods are called (unless a method was stubbed).
Real spies should be used carefully and occasionally, for example when dealing with legacy code.
In your case you should write:
TestedClass tc = spy(new TestedClass());
LoginContext lcMock = mock(LoginContext.class);
when(tc.login(anyString(), anyString())).thenReturn(lcMock);
update package.json version automatically
I have created a tool that can accomplish automatic semantic versioning based on the tags in commit messages, known as change types. This closely follows the Angular Commit Message Convention along with the Semantic Versioning Specification.
You could use this tool to automatically change the version in the package.json using the npm CLI (this is described here).
In addition, it can create a changelog from these commits and also has a menu (with a spell checker for commit messages) for creating commits based on the change type. I highly recommend checking it out and reading to docs to see everything that can be accomplished with it.
I wrote the tool because I couldn't find anything that suited my needs for my CICD Pipeline to automate semantic versioning. I'd rather focus on what the actual changes are than what the version should be and that's where my tool saves the day.
For more information on the rationale for the tool, please see this.
How to check the version of scipy
From the python command prompt:

Error Code: 1062. Duplicate entry '1' for key 'PRIMARY'
If you are using PHPMyAdmin
You can be solved this issue by doing this:
CAUTION: Don't use this solution if you want to maintain existing
records in your table.
Step 1: Select database export method to custom:
Step 2: Please make sure to check truncate table before insert in data creation options:
Now you are able to import this database successfully.
Java for loop syntax: "for (T obj : objects)"
Yes, It is called the for-each loop.
Objects in the collectionName will be assigned one after one from the beginning of that collection, to the created object reference, 'objectName'. So in each iteration of the loop, the 'objectName' will be assigned an object from the 'collectionName' collection.
The loop will terminate once when all the items(objects) of the 'collectionName' Collection have finished been assigning or simply the objects to get are over.
for (ObjectType objectName : collectionName.getObjects()){
//loop body>
//You can use the 'objectName' here as needed and different objects will be //reepresented by it in each iteration.
}
JBoss vs Tomcat again
I have also read that for some servers one for example needs only annotate persistence contexts, but in some servers, the injection should be done manually.

Install-Module : The term 'Install-Module' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet
Actually my solution to this problem was much simpler, because I already had the latest version of PowerShell and is still didn't recognize Install-Module
command. What fixed the "issue" for me was just typing the command manually, since originally I tried copying the snippet from a website and apparently there was some issue with the formatting when copy&pasting, so when I typed the command manually it installed the module without any problem.
Decompile .smali files on an APK
My recommendation is Virtuous Ten Studio. The tool is free but they suggest a donation. It combines all the necessary steps (unpacking APK, baksmaliing, decompiling, etc.) into one easy-to-use UI-based import process. Within five minutes you should have Java source code, less than it takes to figure out the command line options of one of the above mentioned tools.
Decompiling smali to Java is an inexact process, especially if the smali artifacts went through an obfuscator. You can find several decompilers on the web but only some of them are still maintained. Some will give you better decompiled code than others. Read "better" as in "more understandable" than others. Don't expect that the reverse-engineered Java code will compile out of the box. Virtuous Ten Studio comes with multiple free Java decompilers built-in so you can easily try out different decompilers (the "Generate Java source" step) to see which one gives you the best results, saving you the time to find those decompilers yourself and figure out how to use them. Amongst them is CFR, which is one of the few free and still maintained decompilers.
As output you receive, amongst other things, a folder structure that contains all the decompiled Java source code. You can then import this into IntelliJ IDEA or Eclipse for further editing, analysis (e.g. Go to definition, Find usages), etc.

Using Mockito's generic "any()" method
As I needed to use this feature for my latest project (at one point we updated from 1.10.19), just to keep the users (that are already using the mockito-core version 2.1.0 or greater) up to date, the static methods from the above answers should be taken from ArgumentMatchers
class:
import static org.mockito.ArgumentMatchers.isA;
import static org.mockito.ArgumentMatchers.any;
Please keep this in mind if you are planning to keep your Mockito artefacts up to date as possibly starting from version 3, this class may no longer exist:
As per 2.1.0 and above, Javadoc of org.mockito.Matchers states:
Use org.mockito.ArgumentMatchers
. This class is now deprecated in order to
avoid a name clash with Hamcrest * org.hamcrest.Matchers
class. This class will likely be removed in version 3.0.
I have written a little article on mockito wildcards if you're up for further reading.
How to serve up images in Angular2?

How do I handle Database Connections with Dapper in .NET?
Everyone appears to be opening their connections entirely too early? I had this same question, and after digging through the Source here - https://github.com/StackExchange/dapper-dot-net/blob/master/Dapper/SqlMapper.cs
You will find that every interaction with the database checks the connection to see if it is closed, and opens it as necessary. Due to this, we simply utilize using statements like above without the conn.open(). This way the connection is opened as close to the interaction as possible. If you notice, it also immediately closes the connection. This will also be quicker than it closing automatically during disposal.
One of the many examples of this from the repo above:
private static int ExecuteCommand(IDbConnection cnn, ref CommandDefinition command, Action<IDbCommand, object> paramReader)
{
IDbCommand cmd = null;
bool wasClosed = cnn.State == ConnectionState.Closed;
try
{
cmd = command.SetupCommand(cnn, paramReader);
if (wasClosed) cnn.Open();
int result = cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
command.OnCompleted();
return result;
}
finally
{
if (wasClosed) cnn.Close();
cmd?.Dispose();
}
}
Below is a small example of how we use a Wrapper for Dapper called the DapperWrapper. This allows us to wrap all of the Dapper and Simple Crud methods to manage connections, provide security, logging, etc.
public class DapperWrapper : IDapperWrapper
{
public IEnumerable<T> Query<T>(string query, object param = null, IDbTransaction transaction = null, bool buffered = true, int? commandTimeout = null, CommandType? commandType = null)
{
using (var conn = Db.NewConnection())
{
var results = conn.Query<T>(query, param, transaction, buffered, commandTimeout, commandType);
// Do whatever you want with the results here
// Such as Security, Logging, Etc.
return results;
}
}
}
How to change the height of a <br>?
Might found a solution very easy which you only need to create different type of

}
Can I add and remove elements of enumeration at runtime in Java
I faced this problem on the formative project of my young career.
The approach I took was to save the values and the names of the enumeration externally, and the end goal was to be able to write code that looked as close to a language enum as possible.
I wanted my solution to look like this:
enum HatType
{
BASEBALL,
BRIMLESS,
INDIANA_JONES
}
HatType mine = HatType.BASEBALL;
// prints "BASEBALL"
System.out.println(mine.toString());
// prints true
System.out.println(mine.equals(HatType.BASEBALL));
And I ended up with something like this:
// in a file somewhere:
// 1 --> BASEBALL
// 2 --> BRIMLESS
// 3 --> INDIANA_JONES
HatDynamicEnum hats = HatEnumRepository.retrieve();
HatEnumValue mine = hats.valueOf("BASEBALL");
// prints "BASEBALL"
System.out.println(mine.toString());
// prints true
System.out.println(mine.equals(hats.valueOf("BASEBALL"));
Since my requirements were that it had to be possible to add members to the enum at run-time, I also implemented that functionality:
hats.addEnum("BATTING_PRACTICE");
HatEnumRepository.storeEnum(hats);
hats = HatEnumRepository.retrieve();
HatEnumValue justArrived = hats.valueOf("BATTING_PRACTICE");
// file now reads:
// 1 --> BASEBALL
// 2 --> BRIMLESS
// 3 --> INDIANA_JONES
// 4 --> BATTING_PRACTICE
I dubbed it the Dynamic Enumeration "pattern", and you read about the original design and its revised edition.
The difference between the two is that the revised edition was designed after I really started to grok OO and DDD. The first one I designed when I was still writing nominally procedural DDD, under time pressure no less.
Dynamic Height Issue for UITableView Cells (Swift)
This is simple when doing 2 things:
- setting the automatic height
tableView.rowHeight = UITableView.automaticDimension
- creating all TableViewCells with FULL constraints from top to bottom. The last element MUST define some bottom spacing to end the cell.
So the layout engine can compute the cell heigth and apply the value correctly.
Inline functions in C#?
Inline methods are simply a compiler optimization where the code of a function is rolled into the caller.
There's no mechanism by which to do this in C#, and they're to be used sparingly in languages where they are supported -- if you don't know why they should be used somewhere, they shouldn't be.
Edit: To clarify, there are two major reasons they need to be used sparingly:
- It's easy to make massive binaries by using inline in cases where it's not necessary
- The compiler tends to know better than you do when something should, from a performance standpoint, be inlined
It's best to leave things alone and let the compiler do its work, then profile and figure out if inline is the best solution for you. Of course, some things just make sense to be inlined (mathematical operators particularly), but letting the compiler handle it is typically the best practice.
How to use && in EL boolean expressions in Facelets?
In addition to the answer of BalusC, use the following Java RegExp to replace &&
with and
:
Search: (#\{[^\}]*)(&&)([^\}]*\})
Replace: $1and$3
You have run this regular expression replacement multiple times to find all occurences in case you are using >2 literals in your EL expressions. Mind to replace the leading # by $ if your EL expression syntax differs.
C++ Loop through Map
You can achieve this like following :
map<string, int>::iterator it;
for (it = symbolTable.begin(); it != symbolTable.end(); it++)
{
std::cout << it->first // string (key)
<< ':'
<< it->second // string's value
<< std::endl;
}
With C++11 ( and onwards ),
for (auto const& x : symbolTable)
{
std::cout << x.first // string (key)
<< ':'
<< x.second // string's value
<< std::endl;
}
With C++17 ( and onwards ),
for (auto const& [key, val] : symbolTable)
{
std::cout << key // string (key)
<< ':'
<< val // string's value
<< std::endl;
}
using CASE in the WHERE clause
You don't have to use CASE...WHEN, you could use an OR condition, like this:
WHERE
pw='correct'
AND (id>=800 OR success=1)
AND YEAR(timestamp)=2011
this means that if id<800, success has to be 1 for the condition to be evaluated as true. Otherwise, it will be true anyway.
It is less common, however you could still use CASE WHEN, like this:
WHERE
pw='correct'
AND CASE WHEN id<800 THEN success=1 ELSE TRUE END
AND YEAR(timestamp)=2011
this means: return success=1
(which can be TRUE or FALSE) in case id<800, or always return TRUE otherwise.
How to disable anchor "jump" when loading a page?
I think I've found a way for UI Tabs without redoing the functionality. So far I haven't found any problems.
$( ".tabs" ).tabs();
$( ".tabs" ).not(".noHash").bind("tabsshow", function(event, ui) {
window.location.hash = "tab_"+ui.tab.hash.replace(/#/,"");
return false;
});
var selectedTabHash = window.location.hash.replace(/tab_/,"");
var index = $( ".tabs li a" ).index($(".tabs li a[href='"+selectedTabHash+"']"));
$( ".tabs" ).not(".noHash").tabs('select', index);
All within a ready event. It prepends "tab_" for the hash but work both when clicked and page loaded with hash.
ASP.NET MVC Return Json Result?
It should be :
public async Task<ActionResult> GetSomeJsonData()
{
var model = // ... get data or build model etc.
return Json(new { Data = model }, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
}
or more simply:
return Json(model, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
I did notice that you are calling GetResources() from another ActionResult which wont work. If you are looking to get JSON back, you should be calling GetResources() from ajax directly...
How to know if two arrays have the same values
Sort the arrays and compare their values one by one.
function arrayCompare(_arr1, _arr2) {
if (
!Array.isArray(_arr1)
|| !Array.isArray(_arr2)
|| _arr1.length !== _arr2.length
) {
return false;
}
// .concat() to not mutate arguments
const arr1 = _arr1.concat().sort();
const arr2 = _arr2.concat().sort();
for (let i = 0; i < arr1.length; i++) {
if (arr1[i] !== arr2[i]) {
return false;
}
}
return true;
}
Do you use NULL or 0 (zero) for pointers in C++?
cerr << sizeof(0) << endl;
cerr << sizeof(NULL) << endl;
cerr << sizeof(void*) << endl;
============
On a 64-bit gcc RHEL platform you get:
4
8
8
================
The moral of the story. You should use NULL when you're dealing with pointers.
1) It declares your intent (don't make me search through all your code trying to figure out if a variable is a pointer or some numeric type).
2) In certain API calls that expect variable arguments, they'll use a NULL-pointer to indicate the end of the argument list. In this case, using a '0' instead of NULL can cause problems. On a 64-bit platform, the va_arg call wants a 64-bit pointer, yet you'll be passing only a 32-bit integer. Seems to me like you're relying on the other 32-bits to be zeroed out for you? I've seen certain compilers (e.g. Intel's icpc) that aren't so gracious -- and this has resulted in runtime errors.
How to use UIVisualEffectView to Blur Image?
Just put this blur view on the imageView. Here is an example in Objective-C:
UIVisualEffect *blurEffect;
blurEffect = [UIBlurEffect effectWithStyle:UIBlurEffectStyleLight];
UIVisualEffectView *visualEffectView;
visualEffectView = [[UIVisualEffectView alloc] initWithEffect:blurEffect];
visualEffectView.frame = imageView.bounds;
[imageView addSubview:visualEffectView];
and Swift:
var visualEffectView = UIVisualEffectView(effect: UIBlurEffect(style: .Light))
visualEffectView.frame = imageView.bounds
imageView.addSubview(visualEffectView)
Paging with LINQ for objects
Here is my performant approach to paging when using LINQ to objects:
public static IEnumerable<IEnumerable<T>> Page<T>(this IEnumerable<T> source, int pageSize)
{
Contract.Requires(source != null);
Contract.Requires(pageSize > 0);
Contract.Ensures(Contract.Result<IEnumerable<IEnumerable<T>>>() != null);
using (var enumerator = source.GetEnumerator())
{
while (enumerator.MoveNext())
{
var currentPage = new List<T>(pageSize)
{
enumerator.Current
};
while (currentPage.Count < pageSize && enumerator.MoveNext())
{
currentPage.Add(enumerator.Current);
}
yield return new ReadOnlyCollection<T>(currentPage);
}
}
}
This can then be used like so:
var items = Enumerable.Range(0, 12);
foreach(var page in items.Page(3))
{
// Do something with each page
foreach(var item in page)
{
// Do something with the item in the current page
}
}
None of this rubbish Skip
and Take
which will be highly inefficient if you are interested in multiple pages.
Python memory usage of numpy arrays
The field nbytes will give you the size in bytes of all the elements of the array in a numpy.array
:
size_in_bytes = my_numpy_array.nbytes
Notice that this does not measures "non-element attributes of the array object" so the actual size in bytes can be a few bytes larger than this.
jQuery - Fancybox: But I don't want scrollbars!
I have face the same problem and after times of trial and error, I found out that you can avoid scrollbars by overriding frame css class.
You can do like this:
iframe.fancybox-iframe {
overflow:hidden;
}
JS configuration:
jQuery(document).ready(function(){
$("a.various").fancybox({
'width' : 'auto',
'height' : 'auto',
'autoScale' : false,
'autoDimensions' : false,
'scrolling' : 'no',
'transitionIn' : 'none',
'transitionOut' : 'none',
'type' : 'iframe'
});
});
Note: Your fancybox box type must be an iframe
for this to take effect.
Differences between Ant and Maven
Ant is mainly a build tool.
Maven is a project and dependencies management tool (which of course builds your project as well).
Ant+Ivy is a pretty good combination if you want to avoid Maven.
ComboBox: Adding Text and Value to an Item (no Binding Source)
// Bind combobox to dictionary
Dictionary<string, string>test = new Dictionary<string, string>();
test.Add("1", "dfdfdf");
test.Add("2", "dfdfdf");
test.Add("3", "dfdfdf");
comboBox1.DataSource = new BindingSource(test, null);
comboBox1.DisplayMember = "Value";
comboBox1.ValueMember = "Key";
// Get combobox selection (in handler)
string value = ((KeyValuePair<string, string>)comboBox1.SelectedItem).Value;

What are the differences between 'call-template' and 'apply-templates' in XSL?
<xsl:call-template>
is a close equivalent to calling a function in a traditional programming language.
You can define functions in XSLT, like this simple one that outputs a string.
<xsl:template name="dosomething">
<xsl:text>A function that does something</xsl:text>
</xsl:template>
This function can be called via <xsl:call-template name="dosomething">
.
<xsl:apply-templates>
is a little different and in it is the real power of XSLT: It takes any number of XML nodes (whatever you define in the select
attribute), iterates them (this is important: apply-templates works like a loop!) and finds matching templates for them:
<!-- sample XML snippet -->
<xml>
<foo /><bar /><baz />
</xml>
<!-- sample XSLT snippet -->
<xsl:template match="xml">
<xsl:apply-templates select="*" /> <!-- three nodes selected here -->
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="foo"> <!-- will be called once -->
<xsl:text>foo element encountered</xsl:text>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="*"> <!-- will be called twice -->
<xsl:text>other element countered</xsl:text>
</xsl:template>
This way you give up a little control to the XSLT processor - not you decide where the program flow goes, but the processor does by finding the most appropriate match for the node it's currently processing.
If multiple templates can match a node, the one with the more specific match expression wins. If more than one matching template with the same specificity exist, the one declared last wins.
You can concentrate more on developing templates and need less time to do "plumbing". Your programs will become more powerful and modularized, less deeply nested and faster (as XSLT processors are optimized for template matching).
A concept to understand with XSLT is that of the "current node". With <xsl:apply-templates>
the current node moves on with every iteration, whereas <xsl:call-template>
does not change the current node. I.e. the .
within a called template refers to the same node as the .
in the calling template. This is not the case with apply-templates.
This is the basic difference. There are some other aspects of templates that affect their behavior: Their mode
and priority
, the fact that templates can have both a name
and a match
. It also has an impact whether the template has been imported (<xsl:import>
) or not. These are advanced uses and you can deal with them when you get there.
How to use a FolderBrowserDialog from a WPF application
And here's my final version.
public static class MyWpfExtensions
{
public static System.Windows.Forms.IWin32Window GetIWin32Window(this System.Windows.Media.Visual visual)
{
var source = System.Windows.PresentationSource.FromVisual(visual) as System.Windows.Interop.HwndSource;
System.Windows.Forms.IWin32Window win = new OldWindow(source.Handle);
return win;
}
private class OldWindow : System.Windows.Forms.IWin32Window
{
private readonly System.IntPtr _handle;
public OldWindow(System.IntPtr handle)
{
_handle = handle;
}
#region IWin32Window Members
System.IntPtr System.Windows.Forms.IWin32Window.Handle
{
get { return _handle; }
}
#endregion
}
}
And to actually use it:
var dlg = new FolderBrowserDialog();
System.Windows.Forms.DialogResult result = dlg.ShowDialog(this.GetIWin32Window());
raw_input function in Python
It presents a prompt to the user (the optional arg
of raw_input([arg])
), gets input from the user and returns the data input by the user in a string. See the docs for raw_input()
.
Example:
name = raw_input("What is your name? ")
print "Hello, %s." % name
This differs from input()
in that the latter tries to interpret the input given by the user; it is usually best to avoid input()
and to stick with raw_input()
and custom parsing/conversion code.
Note: This is for Python 2.x
Get source JARs from Maven repository
NetBeans, Context-Click
In NetBeans 8 with a Maven-driven project, merely context-click on the jar file list item of the dependency in which you are interested. Choose Download Sources
. Wait a moment and NetBeans will automatically download and install the source code, if available.
Similarly you can choose Download Javadoc
to get the doc locally installed. Then you can context-click some code in the editor and choose to see the JavaDoc.
What does [object Object] mean?
Basics
You may not know it but, in JavaScript, whenever we interact with string, number or boolean primitives we enter a hidden world of object shadows and coercion.
string, number, boolean, null, undefined, and symbol.
In JavaScript there are 7 primitive types: undefined
, null
, boolean
, string
, number
, bigint
and symbol
. Everything else is an object. The primitive types boolean
, string
and number
can be wrapped by their object counterparts. These objects are instances of the Boolean
, String
and Number
constructors respectively.
typeof true; //"boolean"
typeof new Boolean(true); //"object"
typeof "this is a string"; //"string"
typeof new String("this is a string"); //"object"
typeof 123; //"number"
typeof new Number(123); //"object"
If primitives have no properties, why does "this is a string".length
return a value?
Because JavaScript will readily coerce between primitives and objects. In this case the string value is coerced to a string object in order to access the property length. The string object is only used for a fraction of second after which it is sacrificed to the Gods of garbage collection – but in the spirit of the TV discovery shows, we will trap the elusive creature and preserve it for further analysis…
To demonstrate this further consider the following example in which we are adding a new property to String constructor prototype.
String.prototype.sampleProperty = 5;
var str = "this is a string";
str.sampleProperty; // 5
By this means primitives have access to all the properties (including methods) defined by their respective object constructors.
So we saw that primitive types will appropriately coerce to their respective Object counterpart when required.
Analysis of toString()
method
Consider the following code
var myObj = {lhs: 3, rhs: 2};
var myFunc = function(){}
var myString = "This is a sample String";
var myNumber = 4;
var myArray = [2, 3, 5];
myObj.toString(); // "[object Object]"
myFunc.toString(); // "function(){}"
myString.toString(); // "This is a sample String"
myNumber.toString(); // "4"
myArray.toString(); // "2,3,5"
As discussed above, what's really happening is when we call toString()
method on a primitive type, it has to be coerced into its object counterpart before it can invoke the method.
i.e. myNumber.toString()
is equivalent to Number.prototype.toString.call(myNumber)
and similarly for other primitive types.
But what if instead of primitive type being passed into toString()
method of its corresponding Object constructor function counterpart, we force the primitive type to be passed as parameter onto toString()
method of Object function constructor (Object.prototype.toString.call(x)
)?
Closer look at Object.prototype.toString()
As per the documentation,
When the toString method is called, the following steps are taken:
- If the
this
value is undefined
, return "[object Undefined]"
.
- If the
this
value is null
, return "[object Null]"
.
- If this value is none of the above, Let
O
be the result of calling toObject
passing the this
value as the argument.
- Let class be the value of the
[[Class]]
internal property of O
.
- Return the String value that is the result of concatenating the three Strings
"[object "
, class
, and "]"
.
Understand this from the following example
var myObj = {lhs: 3, rhs: 2};
var myFunc = function(){}
var myString = "This is a sample String";
var myNumber = 4;
var myArray = [2, 3, 5];
var myUndefined = undefined;
var myNull = null;
Object.prototype.toString.call(myObj); // "[object Object]"
Object.prototype.toString.call(myFunc); // "[object Function]"
Object.prototype.toString.call(myString); // "[object String]"
Object.prototype.toString.call(myNumber); // "[object Number]"
Object.prototype.toString.call(myArray); // "[object Array]"
Object.prototype.toString.call(myUndefined); // "[object Undefined]"
Object.prototype.toString.call(myNull); // "[object Null]"

How to wrap async function calls into a sync function in Node.js or Javascript?
Making Node.js code sync is essential in few aspects such as database. But actual advantage of Node.js lies in async code. As it is single thread non-blocking.
we can sync it using important functionality Fiber()
Use await() and defer ()
we call all methods using await(). then replace the callback functions with defer().
Normal Async code.This uses CallBack functions.
function add (var a, var b, function(err,res){
console.log(res);
});
function sub (var res2, var b, function(err,res1){
console.log(res);
});
function div (var res2, var b, function(err,res3){
console.log(res3);
});
Sync the above code using Fiber(), await() and defer()
fiber(function(){
var obj1 = await(function add(var a, var b,defer()));
var obj2 = await(function sub(var obj1, var b, defer()));
var obj3 = await(function sub(var obj2, var b, defer()));
});
I hope this will help. Thank You

How to use local docker images with Minikube?
One idea would be to save the docker image locally and later load it into minikube as follows:
Let say, for example, you already have puckel/docker-airflow image.
Save that image to local disk -
docker save puckel/docker-airflow > puckel_docker_airflow.tar
Now enter into minikube docker env -
eval $(minikube docker-env)
Load that locally saved image -
docker load < puckel_docker_airflow.tar
It is that simple and it works like a charm.
SQL Insert Query Using C#
I assume you have a connection to your database and you can not do the insert parameters using c #.
You are not adding the parameters in your query. It should look like:
String query = "INSERT INTO dbo.SMS_PW (id,username,password,email) VALUES (@id,@username,@password, @email)";
SqlCommand command = new SqlCommand(query, db.Connection);
command.Parameters.Add("@id","abc");
command.Parameters.Add("@username","abc");
command.Parameters.Add("@password","abc");
command.Parameters.Add("@email","abc");
command.ExecuteNonQuery();
Updated:
using(SqlConnection connection = new SqlConnection(_connectionString))
{
String query = "INSERT INTO dbo.SMS_PW (id,username,password,email) VALUES (@id,@username,@password, @email)";
using(SqlCommand command = new SqlCommand(query, connection))
{
command.Parameters.AddWithValue("@id", "abc");
command.Parameters.AddWithValue("@username", "abc");
command.Parameters.AddWithValue("@password", "abc");
command.Parameters.AddWithValue("@email", "abc");
connection.Open();
int result = command.ExecuteNonQuery();
// Check Error
if(result < 0)
Console.WriteLine("Error inserting data into Database!");
}
}
Setting a system environment variable from a Windows batch file?
SetX is the command that you'll need in most of the cases.Though its possible to use REG or REGEDIT
Using registry editing commands you can avoid some of the restrictions of the SetX command - different data types, variables containing =
in their name and so on.
@echo off
:: requires admin elevated permissions
::setting system variable
REG ADD "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment" /v MyVar /D MyVal
::expandable variable
REG ADD "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment" /T REG_EXPAND_SZ /v MyVar /D MyVal
:: does not require admin permissions
::setting user variable
REG ADD "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Environment" /v =C: /D "C:\\test"
REG is the pure registry client but its possible also to import the data with REGEDIT though it allows using only hard coded values (or generation of a temp files). The example here is a hybrid file that contains both batch code and registry data (should be saved as .bat
- mind that in batch ;
are ignored as delimiters while they are used as comments in .reg
files):
REGEDIT4
; @ECHO OFF
; CLS
; REGEDIT.EXE /S "%~f0"
; EXIT
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment]
"SystemVariable"="GlobalValue"
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Environment]
"UserVariable"="SomeValue"
How to have PHP display errors? (I've added ini_set and error_reporting, but just gives 500 on errors)
Syntax errors is not checked easily in external servers, just runtime errors.
What I do? Just like you, I use
ini_set('display_errors', 'On');
error_reporting(E_ALL);
However, before run I check syntax errors in a PHP file using an online PHP syntax checker.
The best, IMHO is PHP Code Checker
I copy all the source code, paste inside the main box and click the Analyze
button.
It is not the most practical method, but the 2 procedures are complementary and it solves the problem completely
When should I use mmap for file access?
mmap
is great if you have multiple processes accessing data in a read only fashion from the same file, which is common in the kind of server systems I write. mmap
allows all those processes to share the same physical memory pages, saving a lot of memory.
mmap
also allows the operating system to optimize paging operations. For example, consider two programs; program A
which reads in a 1MB
file into a buffer creating with malloc
, and program B which mmaps
the 1MB file into memory. If the operating system has to swap part of A
's memory out, it must write the contents of the buffer to swap before it can reuse the memory. In B
's case any unmodified mmap
'd pages can be reused immediately because the OS knows how to restore them from the existing file they were mmap
'd from. (The OS can detect which pages are unmodified by initially marking writable mmap
'd pages as read only and catching seg faults, similar to Copy on Write strategy).
mmap
is also useful for inter process communication. You can mmap
a file as read / write in the processes that need to communicate and then use synchronization primitives in the mmap'd
region (this is what the MAP_HASSEMAPHORE
flag is for).
One place mmap
can be awkward is if you need to work with very large files on a 32 bit machine. This is because mmap
has to find a contiguous block of addresses in your process's address space that is large enough to fit the entire range of the file being mapped. This can become a problem if your address space becomes fragmented, where you might have 2 GB of address space free, but no individual range of it can fit a 1 GB file mapping. In this case you may have to map the file in smaller chunks than you would like to make it fit.
Another potential awkwardness with mmap
as a replacement for read / write is that you have to start your mapping on offsets of the page size. If you just want to get some data at offset X
you will need to fixup that offset so it's compatible with mmap
.
And finally, read / write are the only way you can work with some types of files. mmap
can't be used on things like pipes and ttys.
Show MySQL host via SQL Command
To get current host name :-
select @@hostname;
show variables where Variable_name like '%host%';
To get hosts for all incoming requests :-
select host from information_schema.processlist;
Based on your last comment,
I don't think you can resolve IP for the hostname using pure mysql function,
as it require a network lookup, which could be taking long time.
However, mysql document mention this :-
resolveip google.com.sg
docs :- http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/resolveip.html
How can I get the name of an object in Python?
I ran into this page while wondering the same question.
As others have noted, it's simple enough to just grab the __name__
attribute from a function in order to determine the name of the function. It's marginally trickier with objects that don't have a sane way to determine __name__
, i.e. base/primitive objects like basestring instances, ints, longs, etc.
Long story short, you could probably use the inspect module to make an educated guess about which one it is, but you would have to probably know what frame you're working in/traverse down the stack to find the right one. But I'd hate to imagine how much fun this would be trying to deal with eval/exec'ed code.

Excel - extracting data based on another list
I couldn't get the first method to work, and I know this is an old topic, but this is what I ended up doing for a solution:
=IF(ISNA(MATCH(A1,B:B,0)),"Not Matched", A1)
Basically, MATCH A1 to Column B exactly (the 0 stands for match exactly to a value in Column B). ISNA tests for #N/A response which match will return if the no match is found. Finally, if ISNA is true, write "Not Matched" to the selected cell, otherwise write the contents of the matched cell.
User Get-ADUser to list all properties and export to .csv
@AnsgarWiechers - it's not my experience that querying everything and then pruning the result is more efficient when you're doing a targeted search of known accounts. Although, yes, it is also more efficient to select just the properties you need to return.
The below examples are based on a domain in the range of 20,000 account objects.
measure-command {Get-ADUser -Filter '*' -Properties DisplayName,st }
...
Seconds : 16
Milliseconds : 208
measure-command {$userlist | get-aduser -Properties DisplayName,st}
...
Seconds : 3
Milliseconds : 496
In the second example, $userlist contains 368 account names (just strings, not pre-fetched account objects).
Note that if I include the where
clause per your suggestion to prune to the actually desired results, it's even more expensive.
measure-command {Get-ADUser -Filter '*' -Properties DisplayName,st |where {$userlist -Contains $_.samaccountname } }
...
Seconds : 17
Milliseconds : 876
Indexed attributes seem to have similar performance (I tried just returning displayName
).
Even if I return all user account properties in my set, it's more efficient. (Adding a select statement to the below brings it down by a half-second).
measure-command {$userlist | get-aduser -Properties *}
...
Seconds : 12
Milliseconds : 75
I can't find a good document that was written in ye olde days about AD queries to link to, but you're hitting every account in your search scope to return the properties. This discusses the basics of doing effective AD queries - scoping and filtering: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms808539.aspx#efficientadapps_topic01
When your search scope is "*", you're still building a (big) list of the objects and iterating through each one. An LDAP search filter is always more efficient to build the list first (or a narrow search base, which is again building a smaller list to query).
Efficiently counting the number of lines of a text file. (200mb+)
If you're using PHP 5.5 you can use a generator. This will NOT work in any version of PHP before 5.5 though. From php.net:
"Generators provide an easy way to implement simple iterators without the overhead or complexity of implementing a class that implements the Iterator interface."
// This function implements a generator to load individual lines of a large file
function getLines($file) {
$f = fopen($file, 'r');
// read each line of the file without loading the whole file to memory
while ($line = fgets($f)) {
yield $line;
}
}
// Since generators implement simple iterators, I can quickly count the number
// of lines using the iterator_count() function.
$file = '/path/to/file.txt';
$lineCount = iterator_count(getLines($file)); // the number of lines in the file
How to let an ASMX file output JSON
To receive a pure JSON string, without it being wrapped into an XML, you have to write the JSON string directly to the HttpResponse
and change the WebMethod
return type to void
.
[System.Web.Script.Services.ScriptService]
public class WebServiceClass : System.Web.Services.WebService {
[WebMethod]
public void WebMethodName()
{
HttpContext.Current.Response.Write("{property: value}");
}
}
How to show changed file name only with git log?
i guess your could use the --name-only
flag. something like:
git log 73167b96 --pretty="format:" --name-only
i personally use git show
for viewing files changed in a commit
git show --pretty="format:" --name-only 73167b96
(73167b96 could be any commit/tag name)
Javascript add leading zeroes to date
Here is an example from the Date object docs on the Mozilla Developer Network using a custom "pad" function, without having to extend Javascript's Number prototype. The handy function they give as an example is
function pad(n){return n<10 ? '0'+n : n}
And below is it being used in context.
/* use a function for the exact format desired... */
function ISODateString(d){
function pad(n){return n<10 ? '0'+n : n}
return d.getUTCFullYear()+'-'
+ pad(d.getUTCMonth()+1)+'-'
+ pad(d.getUTCDate())+'T'
+ pad(d.getUTCHours())+':'
+ pad(d.getUTCMinutes())+':'
+ pad(d.getUTCSeconds())+'Z'
}
var d = new Date();
console.log(ISODateString(d)); // prints something like 2009-09-28T19:03:12Z
Why does Boolean.ToString output "True" and not "true"
Only people from Microsoft can really answer that question. However, I'd like to offer some fun facts about it ;)
First, this is what it says in MSDN about the Boolean.ToString() method:
Return Value
Type: System.String
TrueString if the value of this
instance is true, or FalseString if
the value of this instance is false.
Remarks
This method returns the
constants "True" or "False". Note that
XML is case-sensitive, and that the
XML specification recognizes "true"
and "false" as the valid set of
Boolean values. If the String object
returned by the ToString() method
is to be written to an XML file, its
String.ToLower method should be
called first to convert it to
lowercase.
Here comes the fun fact #1: it doesn't return TrueString or FalseString at all. It uses hardcoded literals "True" and "False". Wouldn't do you any good if it used the fields, because they're marked as readonly, so there's no changing them.
The alternative method, Boolean.ToString(IFormatProvider) is even funnier:
Remarks
The provider parameter is reserved. It does not participate in the execution of this method. This means that the Boolean.ToString(IFormatProvider) method, unlike most methods with a provider parameter, does not reflect culture-specific settings.
What's the solution? Depends on what exactly you're trying to do. Whatever it is, I bet it will require a hack ;)
Send attachments with PHP Mail()?
For PHP 5.5.27 security update
$file = $path.$filename;
$content = file_get_contents( $file);
$content = chunk_split(base64_encode($content));

$name = basename($file);
// header
$header = "From: ".$from_name." <".$from_mail.">\r\n";
$header .= "Reply-To: ".$replyto."\r\n";

How to restrict the selectable date ranges in Bootstrap Datepicker?
The example above can be simplify a bit. Additionally you can put date manually from keyboard instead of selecting it via datepicker only. When clearing the value you need to handle also 'on clearDate' action to remove startDate/endDate boundary:
JS file:
$(".from_date").datepicker({
format: 'yyyy-mm-dd',
autoclose: true,
}).on('changeDate', function (selected) {
var startDate = new Date(selected.date.valueOf());
$('.to_date').datepicker('setStartDate', startDate);
}).on('clearDate', function (selected) {
$('.to_date').datepicker('setStartDate', null);
});
$(".to_date").datepicker({
format: 'yyyy-mm-dd',
autoclose: true,
}).on('changeDate', function (selected) {
var endDate = new Date(selected.date.valueOf());
$('.from_date').datepicker('setEndDate', endDate);
}).on('clearDate', function (selected) {
$('.from_date').datepicker('setEndDate', null);
});
HTML:
<input class="from_date" placeholder="Select start date" type="text" name="from_date">
<input class="to_date" placeholder="Select end date" type="text" name="to_date">
websocket.send() parameter
As I understand it, you want the server be able to send messages through from client 1 to client 2. You cannot directly connect two clients because one of the two ends of a WebSocket connection needs to be a server.
This is some pseudocodish JavaScript:
Client:
var websocket = new WebSocket("server address");
websocket.onmessage = function(str) {
console.log("Someone sent: ", str);
};
// Tell the server this is client 1 (swap for client 2 of course)
websocket.send(JSON.stringify({
id: "client1"
}));
// Tell the server we want to send something to the other client
websocket.send(JSON.stringify({
to: "client2",
data: "foo"
}));
Server:
var clients = {};
server.on("data", function(client, str) {
var obj = JSON.parse(str);
if("id" in obj) {
// New client, add it to the id/client object
clients[obj.id] = client;
} else {
// Send data to the client requested
clients[obj.to].send(obj.data);
}
});
Checking if jquery is loaded using Javascript
You can check whether it exists and, if it does not exist, load it dynamically.
function loadScript(src) {
return new Promise(function (resolve, reject) {
var s;
s = document.createElement('script');
s.src = src;
s.onload = resolve;
s.onerror = reject;
document.head.appendChild(s);
});
}
async function load(){
if (!window.jQuery){
await loadScript(`https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.5.1/jquery.min.js`);
}
console.log(jQuery);
}
load();
Show div #id on click with jQuery
You can use jQuery toggle
to show and hide the div. The script will be like this
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(function(){
jQuery("#music").click(function () {
jQuery("#musicinfo").toggle("slow");
});
});
</script>
Fast query runs slow in SSRS
I had the same scenario occuring..Very basic report, the SP (which only takes in 1 param) was taking 5 seconds to bring back 10K records, yet the report would take 6 minutes to run. According to profiler and the RS ExecutionLogStorage table, the report was spending all it's time on the query. Brian S.'s comment led me to the solution..I simply added WITH RECOMPILE before the AS statement in the SP, and now the report time pretty much matches the SP execution time.
Testing whether a value is odd or even
Use modulus:
function isEven(n) {
return n % 2 == 0;
}
function isOdd(n) {
return Math.abs(n % 2) == 1;
}
You can check that any value in Javascript can be coerced to a number with:
Number.isFinite(parseFloat(n))
This check should preferably be done outside the isEven
and isOdd
functions, so you don't have to duplicate error handling in both functions.
Override console.log(); for production
Just remember that with this method each console.log call will still do a call to a (empty) function causing overhead, if there are 100 console.log commands, you are still doing 100 calls to a blank function.
Not sure how much overhead this would cause, but there will be some, it would be preferable to have a flag to turn debug on then use something along the lines of:
var debug=true; if (debug) console.log('blah')
How do I install package.json dependencies in the current directory using npm
Running:
npm install
from inside your app directory (i.e. where package.json is located) will install the dependencies for your app, rather than install it as a module, as described here. These will be placed in ./node_modules relative to your package.json file (it's actually slightly more complex than this, so check the npm docs here).
You are free to move the node_modules dir to the parent dir of your app if you want, because node's 'require' mechanism understands this. However, if you want to update your app's dependencies with install/update, npm will not see the relocated 'node_modules' and will instead create a new dir, again relative to package.json.
To prevent this, just create a symlink to the relocated node_modules from your app dir:
ln -s ../node_modules node_modules
react-router getting this.props.location in child components
(Update) V5.1 & Hooks (Requires React >= 16.8)
You can use useHistory
, useLocation
and useRouteMatch
in your component to get match
, history
and location
.
const Child = () => {
const location = useLocation();
const history = useHistory();
const match = useRouteMatch("write-the-url-you-want-to-match-here");
return (
<div>{location.pathname}</div>
)
}
export default Child
(Update) V4 & V5
You can use withRouter
HOC in order to inject match
, history
and location
in your component props.
class Child extends React.Component {
static propTypes = {
match: PropTypes.object.isRequired,
location: PropTypes.object.isRequired,
history: PropTypes.object.isRequired
}
render() {
const { match, location, history } = this.props
return (
<div>{location.pathname}</div>
)
}
}
export default withRouter(Child)
(Update) V3
You can use withRouter
HOC in order to inject router
, params
, location
, routes
in your component props.
class Child extends React.Component {
render() {
const { router, params, location, routes } = this.props
return (
<div>{location.pathname}</div>
)
}
}
export default withRouter(Child)
Original answer
If you don't want to use the props, you can use the context as described in React Router documentation
First, you have to set up your childContextTypes
and getChildContext
class App extends React.Component{
getChildContext() {
return {
location: this.props.location
}
}
render() {
return <Child/>;
}
}
App.childContextTypes = {
location: React.PropTypes.object
}
Then, you will be able to access to the location object in your child components using the context like this
class Child extends React.Component{
render() {
return (
<div>{this.context.location.pathname}</div>
)
}
}
Child.contextTypes = {
location: React.PropTypes.object
}
How to save all console output to file in R?
You can print to file and at the same time see progress having (or not) screen
, while running a R script.
When not using screen, use R CMD BATCH yourscript.R &
and step 4.
When using screen, in a terminal, start screen
screen
run your R script
R CMD BATCH yourscript.R
Go to another screen pressing CtrlA, then c
look at your output with (real-time):
tail -f yourscript.Rout
Switch among screens with CtrlA then n
angular.service vs angular.factory
Here are the primary differences:
Services
Syntax: module.service( 'serviceName', function );
Result: When declaring serviceName as an injectable argument you will be provided with the instance of a function passed to module.service
.
Usage: Could be useful for sharing utility functions that are useful to invoke by simply appending ( )
to the injected function reference. Could also be run with injectedArg.call( this )
or similar.
Factories
Syntax: module.factory( 'factoryName', function );
Result: When declaring factoryName as an injectable argument you will be provided with the value that is returned by invoking the function reference passed to module.factory
.
Usage: Could be useful for returning a 'class' function that can then be new'ed to create instances.
Here is example using services and factory. Read more about AngularJS Service vs Factory.
You can also check the AngularJS documentation and similar question on stackoverflow confused about service vs factory.
find if an integer exists in a list of integers
As long as your list is initialized with values and that value actually exists in the list, then Contains should return true.
I tried the following:
var list = new List<int> {1,2,3,4,5};
var intVar = 4;
var exists = list.Contains(intVar);
And exists is indeed set to true.

Google Play Services GCM 9.2.0 asks to "update" back to 9.0.0
I had the same problem, today 2016 - october - 06
I solved with this:
I changed all dependencies that began with 9.?.? to 9.6.1
I compiled with sdk version 24 and target version 17.
There is another packages in my solution because I used more things then only authentication.

Put your package NAME in the line with the words applicationId "com.YOUR_PACKAGE_HERE"
Synchronize your project (Ctrl+alt+v) and Build Again.
This is the code of the file buid.gradle (Module:app) that worked for me:

jQuery ajax upload file in asp.net mvc
AJAX file uploads are now possible by passing a FormData
object to the data
property of the $.ajax
request.
As the OP specifically asked for a jQuery implementation, here you go:
<form id="upload" enctype="multipart/form-data" action="@Url.Action("JsonSave", "Survey")" method="POST">
<input type="file" name="fileUpload" id="fileUpload" size="23" /><br />
<button>Upload!</button>
</form>
$('#upload').submit(function(e) {
e.preventDefault(); // stop the standard form submission
$.ajax({
url: this.action,
type: this.method,
data: new FormData(this),
cache: false,
contentType: false,
processData: false,
success: function (data) {
console.log(data.UploadedFileCount + ' file(s) uploaded successfully');
},
error: function(xhr, error, status) {
console.log(error, status);
}
});
});
public JsonResult Survey()
{
for (int i = 0; i < Request.Files.Count; i++)
{
var file = Request.Files[i];
// save file as required here...
}
return Json(new { UploadedFileCount = Request.Files.Count });
}

How do I make a checkbox required on an ASP.NET form?
Non-javascript way . .
aspx page:
<form id="form1" runat="server">

If Not CheckBox1.Checked Then
args.IsValid = False
End If
End Sub
For any actions you might need (business Rules):
If Page.IsValid Then
'do logic
End If
Sorry for the VB code . . . you can convert it to C# if that is your pleasure. The company I am working for right now requires VB :(
How to make HTML input tag only accept numerical values?
if you can use HTML5 you can do <input type="number" />
If not you will have to either do it through javascript as you said it doesnt get submited to do it from codebehind.
<input id="numbersOnly" onkeypress='validate()' />
function validate(){
var returnString;
var text = document.getElementByID('numbersOnly').value;
var regex = /[0-9]|\./;
var anArray = text.split('');
for(var i=0; i<anArray.length; i++){
if(!regex.test(anArray[i]))
{
anArray[i] = '';
}
}
for(var i=0; i<anArray.length; i++) {
returnString += anArray[i];
}
document.getElementByID('numbersOnly').value = returnString;
}
P.S didnt test the code but it should be more or less correct if not check for typos :D
You might wanna add a few more things like what to do if the string is null or empty etc.
Also you could make this quicker :D
Implicit function declarations in C
It should be considered an error. But C is an ancient language, so it's only a warning.
Compiling with -Werror
(gcc) fixes this problem.
When C doesn't find a declaration, it assumes this implicit declaration: int f();
, which means the function can receive whatever you give it, and returns an integer. If this happens to be close enough (and in case of printf
, it is), then things can work. In some cases (e.g. the function actually returns a pointer, and pointers are larger than ints), it may cause real trouble.
Note that this was fixed in newer C standards (C99, C11). In these standards, this is an error. However, gcc
doesn't implement these standards by default, so you still get the warning.
Plotting in a non-blocking way with Matplotlib
Live Plotting
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
x = np.linspace(0, 2 * np.pi, 100)
# plt.axis([x[0], x[-1], -1, 1]) # disable autoscaling
for point in x:
plt.plot(point, np.sin(2 * point), '.', color='b')
plt.draw()
plt.pause(0.01)
# plt.clf() # clear the current figure
if the amount of data is too much you can lower the update rate with a simple counter
cnt += 1
if (cnt == 10): # update plot each 10 points
plt.draw()
plt.pause(0.01)
cnt = 0
Holding Plot after Program Exit
This was my actual problem that couldn't find satisfactory answer for, I wanted plotting that didn't close after the script was finished (like MATLAB),
If you think about it, after the script is finished, the program is terminated and there is no logical way to hold the plot this way, so there are two options
- block the script from exiting (that's plt.show() and not what I want)
- run the plot on a separate thread (too complicated)
this wasn't satisfactory for me so I found another solution outside of the box
SaveToFile and View in external viewer
For this the saving and viewing should be both fast and the viewer shouldn't lock the file and should update the content automatically
Selecting Format for Saving
vector based formats are both small and fast
- SVG is good but coudn't find good viewer for it except the web browser which by default needs manual refresh
- PDF can support vector formats and there are lightweight viewers which support live updating
Fast Lightweight Viewer with Live Update
For PDF there are several good options
On Windows I use SumatraPDF which is free, fast and light (only uses 1.8MB RAM for my case)
On Linux there are several options such as Evince (GNOME) and Ocular (KDE)
Sample Code & Results
Sample code for outputing plot to a file
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
x = np.linspace(0, 2 * np.pi, 100)
y = np.sin(2 * x)
plt.plot(x, y)
plt.savefig("fig.pdf")
after first run, open the output file in one of the viewers mentioned above and enjoy.
Here is a screenshot of VSCode alongside SumatraPDF, also the process is fast enough to get semi-live update rate (I can get near 10Hz on my setup just use time.sleep()
between intervals)
get path for my .exe
In addition:
AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory
Assembly.GetEntryAssembly().Location
Making an svg image object clickable with onclick, avoiding absolute positioning
It worked by simply replacing the <embed/>
tag with <img/>
and deleting the type attribute.
For instance, in my code, instead of:
<embed src=\"./images/info_09c.svg\" type=\"image/svg+xml\" width=\"45\" onClick='afiseaza_indicatie($i, \"$indicatii[$i]\")'>
which does not answer the clicking, I wrote:
<img src=\"./images/info_09c.svg\" height=\"25\" width=\"25\" onClick='afiseaza_indicatie($i, \"$indicatii[$i]\")'>
It works in Internet Explorer and Google Chrome, and I hope that in the other browsers too.
C++ JSON Serialization
Try json_dto.
It is header-only and easy to use.
Simple example:
struct message_t
{
std::string m_from;
std::string m_text;
// Entry point for json_dto.
template < typename JSON_IO >
void
json_io( JSON_IO & io )
{
io
& json_dto::mandatory( "from", m_from )
& json_dto::mandatory( "text", m_text );
}
};
This will be convertable to and from JSON:
{ "from" : "json_dto", "text" : "Hello world!" }
Can constructors throw exceptions in Java?
Yes, they can throw exceptions. If so, they will only be partially initialized and if non-final, subject to attack.
The following is from the Secure Coding Guidelines 2.0.
Partially initialized instances of a non-final class can be accessed via a finalizer attack. The attacker overrides the protected finalize method in a subclass, and attempts to create a new instance of that subclass. This attempt fails (in the above example, the SecurityManager check in ClassLoader's constructor throws a security exception), but the attacker simply ignores any exception and waits for the virtual machine to perform finalization on the partially initialized object. When that occurs the malicious finalize method implementation is invoked, giving the attacker access to this, a reference to the object being finalized. Although the object is only partially initialized, the attacker can still invoke methods on it (thereby circumventing the SecurityManager check).
Cassandra port usage - how are the ports used?
I resolved issue using below steps :
Stop cassandara services
sudo su -
systemctl stop datastax-agent
systemctl stop opscenterd
systemctl stop app-dse
Take backup and Change port from 9042 to 9035
cp /opt/dse/resources/cassandra/conf/cassandra.yaml /opt/dse/resources/cassandra/conf/bkp_cassandra.yaml
Vi /opt/dse/resources/cassandra/conf/cassandra.yaml
native_transport_port: 9035
Start Cassandra services
systemctl start datastax-agent
systemctl start opscenterd
systemctl start app-dse
create cqlshrc file.
vi /root/.cassandra/cqlshrc
[connection]
hostname = 198.168.1.100
port = 9035
Thanks,

How can I profile C++ code running on Linux?
For single-threaded programs you can use igprof, The Ignominous Profiler: https://igprof.org/ .
It is a sampling profiler, along the lines of the... long... answer by Mike Dunlavey, which will gift wrap the results in a browsable call stack tree, annotated with the time or memory spent in each function, either cumulative or per-function.
How to implement reCaptcha for ASP.NET MVC?
Simple and Complete Solution working for me.
Supports ASP.NET MVC 4 and 5 (Supports ASP.NET 4.0, 4.5, and 4.5.1)
Step 1: Install NuGet Package by "Install-Package reCAPTCH.MVC"
Step 2: Add your Public and Private key to your web.config file in appsettings section
<appSettings>
<add key="ReCaptchaPrivateKey" value=" -- PRIVATE_KEY -- " />
<add key="ReCaptchaPublicKey" value=" -- PUBLIC KEY -- " />
</appSettings>
You can create an API key pair for your site at https://www.google.com/recaptcha/intro/index.html
and click on Get reCAPTCHA at top of the page
Step 3: Modify your form to include reCaptcha
@using reCAPTCHA.MVC
@using (Html.BeginForm())
{
@Html.Recaptcha()
@Html.ValidationMessage("ReCaptcha")
<input type="submit" value="Register" />
}
Step 4: Implement the Controller Action that will handle the form submission and Captcha validation
[CaptchaValidator(
PrivateKey = "your private reCaptcha Google Key",
ErrorMessage = "Invalid input captcha.",
RequiredMessage = "The captcha field is required.")]
public ActionResult MyAction(myVM model)
{
if (ModelState.IsValid) //this will take care of captcha
{
}
}
OR
public ActionResult MyAction(myVM model, bool captchaValid)
{
if (captchaValid) //manually check for captchaValid
{
}
}
How to calculate md5 hash of a file using javascript
Apart from the impossibility to get
file system access in JS, I would not
put any trust at all in a
client-generated checksum. So
generating the checksum on the server
is mandatory in any case. – Tomalak

Which is useless in most cases. You want the MD5 computed at client side, so that you can compare it with the code recomputed at server side and conclude the upload went wrong if they differ. I have needed to do that in applications working with large files of scientific data, where receiving uncorrupted files were key. My cases was simple, cause users had the MD5 already computed from their data analysis tools, so I just needed to ask it to them with a text field.
Difference between javacore, thread dump and heap dump in Websphere
JVM head dump is a snapshot of a JVM heap memory in a given time. So its simply a heap representation of JVM. That is the state of the objects.
JVM thread dump is a snapshot of a JVM threads at a given time. So thats what were threads doing at any given time. This is the state of threads. This helps understanding such as locked threads, hanged threads and running threads.
Head dump has more information of java class level information than a thread dump. For example Head dump is good to analyse JVM heap memory issues and OutOfMemoryError errors. JVM head dump is generated automatically when there is something like OutOfMemoryError has taken place. Heap dump can be created manually by killing the process using kill -3 . Generating a heap dump is a intensive computing task, which will probably hang your jvm. so itsn't a methond to use offetenly. Heap can be analysed using tools such as eclipse memory analyser.
Core dump is a os level memory usage of objects. It has more informaiton than a head dump. core dump is not created when we kill a process purposely.
