ElasticSearch: Unassigned Shards, how to fix?
I ran into exactly the same issue. This can be prevented by temporarily setting the shard allocation to false before restarting elasticsearch, but this does not fix the unassigned shards if they are already there.
In my case it was caused by lack of free disk space on the data node. The unassigned shards where still on the data node after the restart but they where not recognized by the master.
Just cleaning 1 of the nodes from the disk got the replication process started for me. This is a rather slow process because all the data has to be copied from 1 data node to the other.
Android + Pair devices via bluetooth programmatically
In my first answer the logic is shown for those who want to go with the logic only.
I think I was not able to make clear to @chalukya3545, that's why I am adding the whole code to let him know the exact flow of the code.

Float vs Decimal in ActiveRecord
In Rails 3.2.18, :decimal turns into :integer when using SQLServer, but it works fine in SQLite. Switching to :float solved this issue for us.
The lesson learned is "always use homogeneous development and deployment databases!"
How to get content body from a httpclient call?
If you are not wanting to use async you can add .Result to force the code to execute synchronously:
private string GetResponseString(string text)
{
var httpClient = new HttpClient();
var parameters = new Dictionary<string, string>();
parameters["text"] = text;
var response = httpClient.PostAsync(BaseUri, new FormUrlEncodedContent(parameters)).Result;
var contents = response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync().Result;
return contents;
}
Copy map values to vector in STL
You could probably use std::transform for that purpose. I would maybe prefer Neils version though, depending on what is more readable.
Example by xtofl (see comments):
#include <map>
#include <vector>
#include <algorithm>
#include <iostream>
template< typename tPair >
struct second_t {
typename tPair::second_type operator()( const tPair& p ) const { return p.second; }
};
template< typename tMap >
second_t< typename tMap::value_type > second( const tMap& m ) { return second_t< typename tMap::value_type >(); }
int main() {
std::map<int,bool> m;
m[0]=true;
m[1]=false;
//...
std::vector<bool> v;
std::transform( m.begin(), m.end(), std::back_inserter( v ), second(m) );
std::transform( m.begin(), m.end(), std::ostream_iterator<bool>( std::cout, ";" ), second(m) );
}
Very generic, remember to give him credit if you find it useful.
Parameter "stratify" from method "train_test_split" (scikit Learn)
For my future self who comes here via Google:
train_test_split is now in model_selection, hence:
from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split
# given:
# features: xs
# ground truth: ys
x_train, x_test, y_train, y_test = train_test_split(xs, ys,
test_size=0.33,
random_state=0,
stratify=ys)
is the way to use it. Setting the random_state is desirable for reproducibility.
How can I give the Intellij compiler more heap space?
Current version:
Settings (Preferences on Mac) | Build, Execution, Deployment | Compiler |
Build process heap size.
Older versions:
Settings (Preferences on Mac) | Compiler | Java Compiler | Maximum heap size.
Compiler runs in a separate JVM by default so IDEA heap settings that you set in idea.vmoptions have no effect on the compiler.
How to configure CORS in a Spring Boot + Spring Security application?
Found an easy solution for Spring-Boot, Spring-Security and Java-based config:
@Configuration
@EnableWebSecurity
@EnableGlobalMethodSecurity(prePostEnabled = true)
public class WebSecurityConfig extends WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter {
@Override
protected void configure(HttpSecurity httpSecurity) throws Exception {
httpSecurity.cors().configurationSource(new CorsConfigurationSource() {
@Override
public CorsConfiguration getCorsConfiguration(HttpServletRequest request) {
return new CorsConfiguration().applyPermitDefaultValues();
}
});
}
}
How can I perform static code analysis in PHP?
There a new tool called nWire for PHP. It is a code exploration plugin for Eclipse PDT and Zend Studio 7.x. It enables real-time code analysis for PHP and provides the following tools:
- Code visualization - interactive graphical representation of components and associations.
- Code navigation - unique navigation view shows all the associations and works with you while you write or read code.
- Quick search - search as you type for methods, fields, file, etc.
Spring mvc @PathVariable
If you have url with path variables, example www.myexampl.com/item/12/update where 12 is the id and create is the variable you want to use for specifying your execution for instance in using a single form to do an update and create, you do this in your controller.
@PostMapping(value = "/item/{id}/{method}")
public String getForm(@PathVariable("id") String itemId ,
@PathVariable("method") String methodCall , Model model){
if(methodCall.equals("create")){
//logic
}
if(methodCall.equals("update")){
//logic
}
return "path to your form";
}
Clear back stack using fragments
To make an answer for @Warpzit's comment and make it easier for others to find.
Use:
fragmentManager.popBackStack(null, FragmentManager.POP_BACK_STACK_INCLUSIVE);
Store text file content line by line into array
You can use this code. This works very fast!
public String[] loadFileToArray(String fileName) throws IOException {
String s = new String(Files.readAllBytes(Paths.get(fileName)));
return Arrays.stream(s.split("\n")).toArray(String[]::new);
}
How do I get the max and min values from a set of numbers entered?
You just need to keep track of a max value like this:
int maxValue = 0;
Then as you iterate through the numbers, keep setting the maxValue to the next value if it is greater than the maxValue:
if (value > maxValue) {
maxValue = value;
}
Repeat in the opposite direction for minValue.
PHP - Redirect and send data via POST
An old post but here is how I handled it. Using newms87's method:
if($action == "redemption")
{
if($redemptionId != "")
{
$results = json_decode($rewards->redeemPoints($redemptionId));
if($results->success == true)
{
$redirectLocation = $GLOBALS['BASE_URL'] . 'rewards.phtml?a=redemptionComplete';
// put results in session and redirect back to same page passing an action paraameter
$_SESSION['post_data'] = json_encode($results);
header("Location:" . $redirectLocation);
exit();
}
}
}
elseif($action == "redemptionComplete")
{
// if data is in session pull it and unset it.
if(isset($_SESSION['post_data']))
{
$results = json_decode($_SESSION['post_data']);
unset($_SESSION['post_data']);
}
// if you got here, you completed the redemption and reloaded the confirmation page. So redirect back to rewards.phtml page.
else
{
$redirectLocation = $GLOBALS['BASE_URL'] . 'rewards.phtml';
header("Location:" . $redirectLocation);
}
}
Quicksort: Choosing the pivot
If you are sorting a random-accessible collection (like an array), it's general best to pick the physical middle item. With this, if the array is all ready sorted (or nearly sorted), the two partitions will be close to even, and you'll get the best speed.
If you are sorting something with only linear access (like a linked-list), then it's best to choose the first item, because it's the fastest item to access. Here, however,if the list is already sorted, you're screwed -- one partition will always be null, and the other have everything, producing the worst time.
However, for a linked-list, picking anything besides the first, will just make matters worse. It pick the middle item in a listed-list, you'd have to step through it on each partition step -- adding a O(N/2) operation which is done logN times making total time O(1.5 N *log N) and that's if we know how long the list is before we start -- usually we don't so we'd have to step all the way through to count them, then step half-way through to find the middle, then step through a third time to do the actual partition: O(2.5N * log N)
Is there a decorator to simply cache function return values?
I implemented something like this, using pickle for persistance and using sha1 for short almost-certainly-unique IDs. Basically the cache hashed the code of the function and the hist of arguments to get a sha1 then looked for a file with that sha1 in the name. If it existed, it opened it and returned the result; if not, it calls the function and saves the result (optionally only saving if it took a certain amount of time to process).
That said, I'd swear I found an existing module that did this and find myself here trying to find that module... The closest I can find is this, which looks about right: http://chase-seibert.github.io/blog/2011/11/23/pythondjango-disk-based-caching-decorator.html
The only problem I see with that is it wouldn't work well for large inputs since it hashes str(arg), which isn't unique for giant arrays.
It would be nice if there were a unique_hash() protocol that had a class return a secure hash of its contents. I basically manually implemented that for the types I cared about.
Escape a string for a sed replace pattern
Based on Pianosaurus's regular expressions, I made a bash function that escapes both keyword and replacement.
function sedeasy {
sed -i "s/$(echo $1 | sed -e 's/\([[\/.*]\|\]\)/\\&/g')/$(echo $2 | sed -e 's/[\/&]/\\&/g')/g" $3
}
Here's how you use it:
sedeasy "include /etc/nginx/conf.d/*" "include /apps/*/conf/nginx.conf" /etc/nginx/nginx.conf
Transactions in .net
protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
using (SqlConnection connection1 = new SqlConnection("Data Source=.\\SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|\\Database.mdf;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True"))
{
connection1.Open();
// Start a local transaction.
SqlTransaction sqlTran = connection1.BeginTransaction();
// Enlist a command in the current transaction.
SqlCommand command = connection1.CreateCommand();
command.Transaction = sqlTran;
try
{
// Execute two separate commands.
command.CommandText =
"insert into [doctor](drname,drspecialization,drday) values ('a','b','c')";
command.ExecuteNonQuery();
command.CommandText =
"insert into [doctor](drname,drspecialization,drday) values ('x','y','z')";
command.ExecuteNonQuery();
// Commit the transaction.
sqlTran.Commit();
Label3.Text = "Both records were written to database.";
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
// Handle the exception if the transaction fails to commit.
Label4.Text = ex.Message;
try
{
// Attempt to roll back the transaction.
sqlTran.Rollback();
}
catch (Exception exRollback)
{
// Throws an InvalidOperationException if the connection
// is closed or the transaction has already been rolled
// back on the server.
Label5.Text = exRollback.Message;
}
}
}
}
libclntsh.so.11.1: cannot open shared object file.
I ran into this same problem last weekend when I needed to use cx_Oracle. After spending a lot of time trying to modify the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable to include the $ORACLE_HOME/lib directoy, where libclntsh.so resides, I ended up solving the problem by creating symbolic links from all the Oracle xlibx.so libraries into /lib/xlibx.so. This certainly isn't the "cleanest" solution, but it has a good chance of working without causing too much trouble:
cd $ORACLE_HOME/lib
for f in `ls ./*.so*`; do;
sudo ln -s $ORACLE_HOME/lib/$f /lib/$f
done
After I did that, cx_Oracle worked like a charm.
Check for special characters (/*-+_@&$#%) in a string?
You could do it with a bool. I've been learning recently and found I could do it this way. In this example, I'm checking a user's input to the console:
using System;
using System.Linq;
namespace CheckStringContent
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
//Get a password to check
Console.WriteLine("Please input a Password: ");
string userPassword = Console.ReadLine();
//Check the string
bool symbolCheck = userPassword.Any(p => !char.IsLetterOrDigit(p));
//Write results to console
Console.WriteLine($"Symbols are present: {symbolCheck}");
}
}
}
This returns 'True' if special chars (symbolCheck) are present in the string, and 'False' if not present.
git - Your branch is ahead of 'origin/master' by 1 commit
You cannot push anything that hasn't been committed yet. The order of operations is:
- Make your change.
git add - this stages your changes for committinggit commit - this commits your staged changes locallygit push - this pushes your committed changes to a remote
If you push without committing, nothing gets pushed. If you commit without adding, nothing gets committed. If you add without committing, nothing at all happens, git merely remembers that the changes you added should be considered for the following commit.
The message you're seeing (your branch is ahead by 1 commit) means that your local repository has one commit that hasn't been pushed yet.
In other words: add and commit are local operations, push, pull and fetch are operations that interact with a remote.
Since there seems to be an official source control workflow in place where you work, you should ask internally how this should be handled.
Password hash function for Excel VBA
Here's a module for calculating SHA1 hashes that is usable for Excel formulas eg. '=SHA1HASH("test")'. To use it, make a new module called 'module_sha1' and copy and paste it all in.
This is based on some VBA code from http://vb.wikia.com/wiki/SHA-1.bas, with changes to support passing it a string, and executable from formulas in Excel cells.

implement time delay in c
There are no sleep() functions in the pre-C11 C Standard Library, but POSIX does provide a few options.
The POSIX function sleep() (unistd.h) takes an unsigned int argument for the number of seconds desired to sleep. Although this is not a Standard Library function, it is widely available, and glibc appears to support it even when compiling with stricter settings like --std=c11.
The POSIX function nanosleep() (time.h) takes two pointers to timespec structures as arguments, and provides finer control over the sleep duration. The first argument specifies the delay duration. If the second argument is not a null pointer, it holds the time remaining if the call is interrupted by a signal handler.
Programs that use the nanosleep() function may need to include a feature test macro in order to compile. The following code sample will not compile on my linux system without a feature test macro when I use a typical compiler invocation of gcc -std=c11 -Wall -Wextra -Wpedantic.
POSIX once had a usleep() function (unistd.h) that took a useconds_t argument to specify sleep duration in microseconds. This function also required a feature test macro when used with strict compiler settings. Alas, usleep() was made obsolete with POSIX.1-2001 and should no longer be used. It is recommended that nanosleep() be used now instead of usleep().
#define _POSIX_C_SOURCE 199309L // feature test macro for nanosleep()
#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h> // for sleep()
#include <time.h> // for nanosleep()
int main(void)
{
// use unsigned sleep(unsigned seconds)
puts("Wait 5 sec...");
sleep(5);
// use int nanosleep(const struct timespec *req, struct timespec *rem);
puts("Wait 2.5 sec...");
struct timespec ts = { .tv_sec = 2, // seconds to wait
.tv_nsec = 5e8 }; // additional nanoseconds
nanosleep(&ts, NULL);
puts("Bye");
return 0;
}
Addendum:
C11 does have the header threads.h providing thrd_sleep(), which works identically to nanosleep(). GCC did not support threads.h until 2018, with the release of glibc 2.28. It has been difficult in general to find implementations with support for threads.h (Clang did not support it for a long time, but I'm not sure about the current state of affairs there). You will have to use this option with care.

Windows-1252 to UTF-8 encoding
UTF-8 does not have a BOM as it is both superfluous and invalid. Where a BOM is helpful is in UTF-16 which may be byte swapped as in the case of Microsoft. UTF-16 if for internal representation in a memory buffer. Use UTF-8 for interchange. By default both UTF-8, anything else derived from US-ASCII and UTF-16 are natural/network byte order. The Microsoft UTF-16 requires a BOM as it is byte swapped.
To covert Windows-1252 to ISO8859-15, I first convert ISO8859-1 to US-ASCII for codes with similar glyphs. I then convert Windows-1252 up to ISO8859-15, other non-ISO8859-15 glyphs to multiple US-ASCII characters.
Multiline input form field using Bootstrap
I think the problem is that you are using type="text" instead of textarea. What you want is:
<textarea class="span6" rows="3" placeholder="What's up?" required></textarea>
To clarify, a type="text" will always be one row, where-as a textarea can be multiple.
Renaming Columns in an SQL SELECT Statement
You can alias the column names one by one, like so
SELECT col1 as `MyNameForCol1`, col2 as `MyNameForCol2`
FROM `foobar`
Edit You can access INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS directly to mangle a new alias like so. However, how you fit this into a query is beyond my MySql skills :(
select CONCAT('Foobar_', COLUMN_NAME)
from INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS
where TABLE_NAME = 'Foobar'
Unit Tests not discovered in Visual Studio 2017
I've tried everything but nothing helped. In my case, I had a solution with several test projects and some of them were using the old ms-test framework so Visual Studio found only those.
I installed the test framework packages for all test projects as showed in this answer, then removed the references to the old quality-tools, restarted Visual Studio, and now I can see all tests.
Setting the default page for ASP.NET (Visual Studio) server configuration
The built-in webserver is hardwired to use Default.aspx as the default page.
The project must have atleast an empty Default.aspx file to overcome the Directory Listing problem for Global.asax.

Once you add that empty file all requests can be handled in one location.
public class Global : System.Web.HttpApplication
{
protected void Application_BeginRequest(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
this.Response.Write("hi@ " + this.Request.Path + "?" + this.Request.QueryString);
this.Response.StatusCode = 200;
this.Response.ContentType = "text/plain";
this.Response.End();
}

Understanding lambda in python and using it to pass multiple arguments
Why do you need to state both x and y before the :?
Because it's a function definition and it needs to know what parameters the function accepts, and in what order. It can't just look at the expression and use the variables names in that, because some of those names you might want to use existing local or global variable values for, and even if it did that, it wouldn't know what order it should expect to get them.
Your error message means that Tk is calling your lambda with one argument, while your lambda is written to accept no arguments. If you don't need the argument, just accept one and don't use it. (Demosthenex has the code, I would have posted it but was beaten to it.)
Sql Server string to date conversion
This page has some references for all of the specified datetime conversions available to the CONVERT function. If your values don't fall into one of the acceptable patterns, then I think the best thing is to go the ParseExact route.
Fluid width with equally spaced DIVs
Other posts have mentioned flexbox, but if more than one row of items is necessary, flexbox's space-between property fails (see the end of the post)
To date, the only clean solution for this is with the
Basically the relevant code necessary boils down to this:
ul {
display: grid; /* (1) */
grid-template-columns: repeat(auto-fit, 120px); /* (2) */
grid-gap: 1rem; /* (3) */
justify-content: space-between; /* (4) */
align-content: flex-start; /* (5) */
}
1) Make the container element a grid container
2) Set the grid with an 'auto' amount of columns - as necessary. This is done for responsive layouts. The width of each column will be 120px. (Note the use of auto-fit (as apposed to auto-fill) which (for a 1-row layout) collapses empty tracks to 0 - allowing the items to expand to take up the remaining space. (check out this demo to see what I'm talking about) ).
3) Set gaps/gutters for the grid rows and columns - here, since want a 'space-between' layout - the gap will actually be a minimum gap because it will grow as necessary.
4) and 5) - Similar to flexbox.

Browser Support - Caniuse
Currently supported by Chrome (Blink), Firefox, Safari and Edge! ... with partial support from IE (See this post by Rachel Andrew)
NB:
Flexbox's space-between property works great for one row of items, but when applied to a flex container which wraps it's items - (with flex-wrap: wrap) - fails, because you have no control over the alignment of the last row of items;
the last row will always be justified (usually not what you want)

What is the difference between DTR/DSR and RTS/CTS flow control?
The difference between them is that they use different pins. Seriously, that's it. The reason they both exist is that RTS/CTS wasn't supposed to ever be a flow control mechanism, originally; it was for half-duplex modems to coordinate who was sending and who was receiving. RTS and CTS got misused for flow control so often that it became standard.
What does an exclamation mark mean in the Swift language?
What does it mean to "unwrap the instance"? Why is it necessary?
As far as I can work out (this is very new to me, too)...
The term "wrapped" implies we should think of an Optional variable as a present, wrapped in shiny paper, which might (sadly!) be empty.
When "wrapped", the value of an Optional variable is an enum with two possible values (a little like a Boolean). This enum describes whether the variable holds a value (Some(T)), or not (None).
If there is a value, this can be obtained by "unwrapping" the variable (obtaining the T from Some(T)).
How is john!.apartment = number73 different from john.apartment = number73? (Paraphrased)
If you write the name of an Optional variable (eg text john, without the !), this refers to the "wrapped" enum (Some/None), not the value itself (T). So john isn't an instance of Person, and it doesn't have an apartment member:
john.apartment
// 'Person?' does not have a member named 'apartment'
The actual Person value can be unwrapped in various ways:
- "forced unwrapping":
john! (gives the Person value if it exists, runtime error if it is nil)
- "optional binding":
if let p = john { println(p) } (executes the println if the value exists)
- "optional chaining":
john?.learnAboutSwift() (executes this made-up method if the value exists)
I guess you choose one of these ways to unwrap, depending upon what should happen in the nil case, and how likely that is. This language design forces the nil case to be handled explicitly, which I suppose improves safety over Obj-C (where it is easy to forget to handle the nil case).
Update:
The exclamation mark is also used in the syntax for declaring "Implicitly Unwrapped Optionals".
In the examples so far, the john variable has been declared as var john:Person?, and it is an Optional. If you want the actual value of that variable, you must unwrap it, using one of the three methods above.
If it were declared as var john:Person! instead, the variable would be an Implicitly Unwrapped Optional (see the section with this heading in Apple's book). There is no need to unwrap this kind of variable when accessing the value, and john can be used without additional syntax. But Apple's book says:
Implicitly unwrapped optionals should not be used when there is a possibility of a variable becoming nil at a later point. Always use a normal optional type if you need to check for a nil value during the lifetime of a variable.
Update 2:
The article "Interesting Swift Features" by Mike Ash gives some motivation for optional types. I think it is great, clear writing.
Update 3:
Another useful article about the implicitly unwrapped optional use for the exclamation mark: "Swift and the Last Mile" by Chris Adamson. The article explains that this is a pragmatic measure by Apple used to declare the types used by their Objective-C frameworks which might contain nil. Declaring a type as optional (using ?) or implicitly unwrapped (using !) is "a tradeoff between safety and convenience". In the examples given in the article, Apple have chosen to declare the types as implicitly unwrapped, making the calling code more convenient, but less safe.
Perhaps Apple might comb through their frameworks in the future, removing the uncertainty of implicitly unwrapped ("probably never nil") parameters and replacing them with optional ("certainly could be nil in particular [hopefully, documented!] circumstances") or standard non-optional ("is never nil") declarations, based on the exact behaviour of their Objective-C code.

How to putAll on Java hashMap contents of one to another, but not replace existing keys and values?
Using Guava's Maps class' utility methods to compute the difference of 2 maps you can do it in a single line, with a method signature which makes it more clear what you are trying to accomplish:
public static void main(final String[] args) {
// Create some maps
final Map<Integer, String> map1 = new HashMap<Integer, String>();
map1.put(1, "Hello");
map1.put(2, "There");
final Map<Integer, String> map2 = new HashMap<Integer, String>();
map2.put(2, "There");
map2.put(3, "is");
map2.put(4, "a");
map2.put(5, "bird");
// Add everything in map1 not in map2 to map2
map2.putAll(Maps.difference(map1, map2).entriesOnlyOnLeft());
}
1052: Column 'id' in field list is ambiguous
If the format of the id's in the two table varies then you want to join them, as such you can select to use an id from one-main table, say if you have table_customes and table_orders, and tha id for orders is like "101","102"..."110", just use one for customers
select customers.id, name, amount, date from customers.orders;
Get keys of a Typescript interface as array of strings
As of TypeScript 2.3 (or should I say 2.4, as in 2.3 this feature contains a bug which has been fixed in [email protected]), you can create a custom transformer to achieve what you want to do.
Actually, I have already created such a custom transformer, which enables the following.
https://github.com/kimamula/ts-transformer-keys
import { keys } from 'ts-transformer-keys';
interface Props {
id: string;
name: string;
age: number;
}
const keysOfProps = keys<Props>();
console.log(keysOfProps); // ['id', 'name', 'age']
Unfortunately, custom transformers are currently not so easy to use. You have to use them with the TypeScript transformation API instead of executing tsc command. There is an issue requesting a plugin support for custom transformers.
How to make a class property?
If you define classproperty as follows, then your example works exactly as you requested.
class classproperty(object):
def __init__(self, f):
self.f = f
def __get__(self, obj, owner):
return self.f(owner)
The caveat is that you can't use this for writable properties. While e.I = 20 will raise an AttributeError, Example.I = 20 will overwrite the property object itself.
Good Linux (Ubuntu) SVN client

Getting unique values in Excel by using formulas only
You can also do it this way.
Create the following named ranges:
nList = the list of original values
nRow = ROW(nList)-ROW(OFFSET(nList,0,0,1,1))+1
nUnique = IF(COUNTIF(OFFSET(nList,nRow,0),nList)=0,COUNTIF(nList, "<"&nList),"")
With these 3 named ranges you can generate the ordered list of unique values with the formula below. It will be sorted in ascending order.
IFERROR(INDEX(nList,MATCH(SMALL(nUnique,ROW()-?),nUnique,0)),"")
You will need to substitute the row number of the cell just above the first element of your unique ordered list for the '?' character.
eg. If your unique ordered list begins in cell B5 then the formula will be:
IFERROR(INDEX(nList,MATCH(SMALL(nUnique,ROW()-4),nUnique,0)),"")
How to check if current thread is not main thread
The best way is the clearest, most robust way: *
Thread.currentThread().equals( Looper.getMainLooper().getThread() )
Or, if the runtime platform is API level 23 (Marshmallow 6.0) or higher:
Looper.getMainLooper().isCurrentThread()
See the Looper API. Note that calling Looper.getMainLooper() involves synchronization (see the source). You might want to avoid the overhead by storing the return value and reusing it.

How to pass an object from one activity to another on Android
Implement your class with Serializable. Let's suppose that this is your entity class:
import java.io.Serializable;
@SuppressWarnings("serial") //With this annotation we are going to hide compiler warnings
public class Deneme implements Serializable {
public Deneme(double id, String name) {
this.id = id;
this.name = name;
}
public double getId() {
return id;
}
public void setId(double id) {
this.id = id;
}
public String getName() {
return this.name;
}
public void setName(String name) {
this.name = name;
}
private double id;
private String name;
}
We are sending the object called dene from X activity to Y activity. Somewhere in X activity;
Deneme dene = new Deneme(4,"Mustafa");
Intent i = new Intent(this, Y.class);
i.putExtra("sampleObject", dene);
startActivity(i);
In Y activity we are getting the object.
Intent i = getIntent();
Deneme dene = (Deneme)i.getSerializableExtra("sampleObject");
That's it.

Why does Google prepend while(1); to their JSON responses?
It prevents disclosure of the response through JSON hijacking.
In theory, the content of HTTP responses are protected by the Same Origin Policy: pages from one domain cannot get any pieces of information from pages on the other domain (unless explicitly allowed).
An attacker can request pages on other domains on your behalf, e.g. by using a <script src=...> or <img> tag, but it can't get any information about the result (headers, contents).
Thus, if you visit an attacker's page, it couldn't read your email from gmail.com.
Except that when using a script tag to request JSON content, the JSON is executed as JavaScript in an attacker's controlled environment. If the attacker can replace the Array or Object constructor or some other method used during object construction, anything in the JSON would pass through the attacker's code, and be disclosed.
Note that this happens at the time the JSON is executed as JavaScript, not at the time it's parsed.
There are multiple countermeasures:
Making sure the JSON never executes
By placing a while(1); statement before the JSON data, Google makes sure that the JSON data is never executed as JavaScript.
Only a legitimate page could actually get the whole content, strip the while(1);, and parse the remainder as JSON.
Things like for(;;); have been seen at Facebook for instance, with the same results.
Making sure the JSON is not valid JavaScript
Similarly, adding invalid tokens before the JSON, like &&&START&&&, makes sure that it is never executed.
Always return JSON with an Object on the outside
This is OWASP recommended way to protect from JSON hijacking and is the less intrusive one.
Similarly to the previous counter-measures, it makes sure that the JSON is never executed as JavaScript.
A valid JSON object, when not enclosed by anything, is not valid in JavaScript:
eval('{"foo":"bar"}')
// SyntaxError: Unexpected token :
This is however valid JSON:
JSON.parse('{"foo":"bar"}')
// Object {foo: "bar"}
So, making sure you always return an Object at the top level of the response makes sure that the JSON is not valid JavaScript, while still being valid JSON.
As noted by @hvd in the comments, the empty object {} is valid JavaScript, and knowing the object is empty may itself be valuable information.
Comparison of above methods
The OWASP way is less intrusive, as it needs no client library changes, and transfers valid JSON. It is unsure whether past or future browser bugs could defeat this, however. As noted by @oriadam, it is unclear whether data could be leaked in a parse error through an error handling or not (e.g. window.onerror).
Google's way requires a client library in order for it to support automatic de-serialization and can be considered to be safer with regard to browser bugs.
Both methods require server side changes in order to avoid developers accidentally sending vulnerable JSON.
How can I replace every occurrence of a String in a file with PowerShell?
This worked for me using the current working directory in PowerShell. You need to use the FullName property, or it won't work in PowerShell version 5. I needed to change the target .NET framework version in ALL my CSPROJ files.
gci -Recurse -Filter *.csproj |
% { (get-content "$($_.FullName)")
.Replace('<TargetFramework>net47</TargetFramework>', '<TargetFramework>net462</TargetFramework>') |
Set-Content "$($_.FullName)"}
A better way to check if a path exists or not in PowerShell
Another option is to use IO.FileInfo which gives you so much file info it make life easier just using this type:
PS > mkdir C:\Temp
PS > dir C:\Temp\
PS > [IO.FileInfo] $foo = 'C:\Temp\foo.txt'
PS > $foo.Exists
False
PS > New-TemporaryFile | Move-Item -Destination C:\Temp\foo.txt
PS > $foo.Refresh()
PS > $foo.Exists
True
PS > $foo | Select-Object *

Prepend line to beginning of a file
To put code to NPE's answer, I think the most efficient way to do this is:
def insert(originalfile,string):
with open(originalfile,'r') as f:
with open('newfile.txt','w') as f2:
f2.write(string)
f2.write(f.read())
os.rename('newfile.txt',originalfile)
elasticsearch bool query combine must with OR
This is how you can nest multiple bool queries in one outer bool query
this using Kibana,
- bool indicates we are using boolean
- must is for AND
- should is for OR
GET my_inedx/my_type/_search
{
"query" : {
"bool": { //bool indicates we are using boolean operator
"must" : [ //must is for **AND**
{
"match" : {
"description" : "some text"
}
},
{
"match" :{
"type" : "some Type"
}
},
{
"bool" : { //here its a nested boolean query
"should" : [ //should is for **OR**
{
"match" : {
//ur query
}
},
{
"match" : {}
}
]
}
}
]
}
}
}
This is how you can nest a query in ES
There are more types in "bool" like,
- Filter
- must_not
getResources().getColor() is deprecated
I found that the useful getResources().getColor(R.color.color_name) is deprecated.
It is not deprecated in API Level 21, according to the documentation.
It is deprecated in the M Developer Preview. However, the replacement method (a two-parameter getColor() that takes the color resource ID and a Resources.Theme object) is only available in the M Developer Preview.
Hence, right now, continue using the single-parameter getColor() method. Later this year, consider using the two-parameter getColor() method on Android M devices, falling back to the deprecated single-parameter getColor() method on older devices.
Grep characters before and after match?
You mean, like this:
grep -o '.\{0,20\}test_pattern.\{0,20\}' file
?
That will print up to twenty characters on either side of test_pattern. The \{0,20\} notation is like *, but specifies zero to twenty repetitions instead of zero or more.The -o says to show only the match itself, rather than the entire line.
How to reduce a huge excel file
I save files in .XLSB format to cut size. The XLSB also allows for VBA and macros to stay with the file. I've seen 50 meg files down to less than 10 with the Binary formatting.
How to get element-wise matrix multiplication (Hadamard product) in numpy?
Try this:
a = np.matrix([[1,2], [3,4]])
b = np.matrix([[5,6], [7,8]])
#This would result a 'numpy.ndarray'
result = np.array(a) * np.array(b)
Here, np.array(a) returns a 2D array of type ndarray and multiplication of two ndarray would result element wise multiplication. So the result would be:
result = [[5, 12], [21, 32]]
If you wanna get a matrix, the do it with this:
result = np.mat(result)
Using regular expression in css?
You can manage selecting those elements without any form of regex as the previous answers show, but to answer the question directly, yes you can use a form of regex in selectors:
#sections div[id^='s'] {
color: red;
}
That says select any div elements inside the #sections div that have an ID starting with the letter 's'.
See fiddle here.
W3 CSS selector docs here.
Oracle listener not running and won't start
I managed to resolve the issue that caused the configuration to fail on a docker container running the Hortonworks HDP 2.6 Sandbox.
If the initial configuration fails the listener will be running and will have to be killed first:
ps -aux | grep tnslsnr
kill {process id identified above}
Then next step is then to fix the shared memory issue which makes the configuration process fail.
Oracle XE requires 1 Gb of shared memory and fails otherwise (I didn't try 512 mb) according to https://blogs.oracle.com/oraclewebcentersuite/implement-oracle-database-xe-as-docker-containers.
vi /etc/fstab
change/add the line to:
tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs defaults,size=1024m 0 0
Then reload the configuration by:
mount -a
Keep in mind that the next time you restart the docker container you might have to do 'mount -a'.
How to pass parameters to a partial view in ASP.NET MVC?
You need to create a view model. Something like this should do...
public class FullNameViewModel
{
public string FirstName { get; set; }
public string LastName { get; set; }
public FullNameViewModel() { }
public FullNameViewModel(string firstName, string lastName)
{
this.FirstName = firstName;
this.LastName = lastName;
}
}
then from your action result pass the model
return View("FullName", new FullNameViewModel("John", "Doe"));
and you will be able to access @Model.FirstName and @Model.LastName accordingly.
How to get file path from OpenFileDialog and FolderBrowserDialog?
A primitive quick fix that works.
If you only use OpenFileDialog, you can capture the FileName, SafeFileName, then subtract to get folder path:
exampleFileName = ofd.SafeFileName;
exampleFileNameFull = ofd.FileName;
exampleFileNameFolder = ofd.FileNameFull.Replace(ofd.FileName, "");
Using an HTTP PROXY - Python
I encountered this on jython client.
The server was only talking TLS and the client using SSL context.
javax.net.ssl.SSLContext.getInstance("SSL")
Once the client was to TLS, things started working.
How many bytes does one Unicode character take?
In UTF-8:
1 byte: 0 - 7F (ASCII)
2 bytes: 80 - 7FF (all European plus some Middle Eastern)
3 bytes: 800 - FFFF (multilingual plane incl. the top 1792 and private-use)
4 bytes: 10000 - 10FFFF
In UTF-16:
2 bytes: 0 - D7FF (multilingual plane except the top 1792 and private-use )
4 bytes: D800 - 10FFFF
In UTF-32:
4 bytes: 0 - 10FFFF
10FFFF is the last unicode codepoint by definition, and it's defined that way because it's UTF-16's technical limit.
It is also the largest codepoint UTF-8 can encode in 4 byte, but the idea behind UTF-8's encoding also works for 5 and 6 byte encodings to cover codepoints until 7FFFFFFF, ie. half of what UTF-32 can.
Append data frames together in a for loop
Try to use rbindlist approach over rbind as it's very, very fast.
Example:
library(data.table)
##### example 1: slow processing ######
table.1 <- data.frame(x = NA, y = NA)
time.taken <- 0
for( i in 1:100) {
start.time = Sys.time()
x <- rnorm(100)
y <- x/2 +x/3
z <- cbind.data.frame(x = x, y = y)
table.1 <- rbind(table.1, z)
end.time <- Sys.time()
time.taken <- (end.time - start.time) + time.taken
}
print(time.taken)
> Time difference of 0.1637917 secs
####example 2: faster processing #####
table.2 <- list()
t0 <- 0
for( i in 1:100) {
s0 = Sys.time()
x <- rnorm(100)
y <- x/2 + x/3
z <- cbind.data.frame(x = x, y = y)
table.2[[i]] <- z
e0 <- Sys.time()
t0 <- (e0 - s0) + t0
}
s1 = Sys.time()
table.3 <- rbindlist(table.2)
e1 = Sys.time()
t1 <- (e1-s1) + t0
t1
> Time difference of 0.03064394 secs
How can I select an element in a component template?
For components inside *ngIf, another approach:
The component I wanted to select was inside a div's *ngIf statement, and @jsgoupil's answer above probably works (Thanks @jsgoupil!), but I ended up finding a way to avoid using *ngIf, by using CSS to hide the element.
When the condition in the [className] is true, the div gets displayed, and naming the component using # works and it can be selected from within the typescript code. When the condition is false, it's not displayed, and I don't need to select it anyway.
Component:
@Component({
selector: 'bla',
templateUrl: 'bla.component.html',
styleUrls: ['bla.component.scss']
})
export class BlaComponent implements OnInit, OnDestroy {
@ViewChild('myComponentWidget', {static: true}) public myComponentWidget: any;
@Input('action') action: ActionType; // an enum defined in our code. (action could also be declared locally)
constructor() {
etc;
}
// this lets you use an enum in the HMTL (ActionType.SomeType)
public get actionTypeEnum(): typeOf ActionType {
return ActionType;
}
public someMethodXYZ: void {
this.myComponentWidget.someMethod(); // use it like that, assuming the method exists
}
and then in the bla.component.html file:
<div [className]="action === actionTypeEnum.SomeType ? 'show-it' : 'do-not-show'">
<my-component #myComponentWidget etc></my-component>
</div>
<div>
<button type="reset" class="bunch-of-classes" (click)="someMethodXYZ()">
<span>XYZ</span>
</button>
</div>
and the CSS file:
::ng-deep {
.show-it {
display: block; // example, actually a lot more css in our code
}
.do-not-show {
display: none';
}
}
"A lambda expression with a statement body cannot be converted to an expression tree"
You can use statement body in lamba expression for IEnumerable collections.
try this one:
Obj[] myArray = objects.AsEnumerable().Select(o =>
{
var someLocalVar = o.someVar;
return new Obj()
{
Var1 = someLocalVar,
Var2 = o.var2
};
}).ToArray();
Notice:
Think carefully when using this method, because this way, you will have all query result in memory, that may have unwanted side effects on the rest of your code.
Convert Array to Object
I have faced this issue multiple times and decided to write a function that is as generic as possible. Have a look and feel free to modify anything
function typeOf(obj) {
if ( typeof(obj) == 'object' ) {
if (obj.length)
return 'array';
else
return 'object';
} else
return typeof(obj);
}
function objToArray(obj, ignoreKeys) {
var arr = [];
if (typeOf(obj) == 'object') {
for (var key in obj) {
if (typeOf(obj[key]) == 'object') {
if (ignoreKeys)
arr.push(objToArray(obj[key],ignoreKeys));
else
arr.push([key,objToArray(obj[key])]);
}
else
arr.push(obj[key]);
}
}else if (typeOf(obj) == 'array') {
for (var key=0;key<obj.length;key++) {
if (typeOf(obj[key]) == 'object')
arr.push(objToArray(obj[key]));
else
arr.push(obj[key]);
}
}
return arr;
}
Html.BeginForm and adding properties
As part of htmlAttributes,e.g.
Html.BeginForm(
action, controller, FormMethod.Post, new { enctype="multipart/form-data"})
Or you can pass null for action and controller to get the same default target as for BeginForm() without any parameters:
Html.BeginForm(
null, null, FormMethod.Post, new { enctype="multipart/form-data"})
Docker container not starting (docker start)
What I need is to use Docker with MariaDb on different port /3301/ on my Ubuntu machine because I already had MySql installed and running on 3306.
To do this after half day searching did it using:
docker run -it -d -p 3301:3306 -v ~/mdbdata/mariaDb:/var/lib/mysql -e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=root --name mariaDb mariadb
This pulls the image with latest MariaDb, creates container called mariaDb, and run mysql on port 3301. All data of which is located in home directory in /mdbdata/mariaDb.
To login in mysql after that can use:
mysql -u root -proot -h 127.0.0.1 -P3301
Used sources are:

Get all child elements
Yes, you can achieve it by find_elements_by_css_selector("*") or find_elements_by_xpath(".//*").
However, this doesn't sound like a valid use case to find all children of an element. It is an expensive operation to get all direct/indirect children. Please further explain what you are trying to do. There should be a better way.
from selenium import webdriver
driver = webdriver.Firefox()
driver.get("http://www.stackoverflow.com")
header = driver.find_element_by_id("header")
# start from your target element, here for example, "header"
all_children_by_css = header.find_elements_by_css_selector("*")
all_children_by_xpath = header.find_elements_by_xpath(".//*")
print 'len(all_children_by_css): ' + str(len(all_children_by_css))
print 'len(all_children_by_xpath): ' + str(len(all_children_by_xpath))
Most efficient way to map function over numpy array
Edit: the original answer was misleading, np.sqrt was applied directly to the array, just with a small overhead.
In multidimensional cases where you want to apply a builtin function that operates on a 1d array, numpy.apply_along_axis is a good choice, also for more complex function compositions from numpy and scipy.
Previous misleading statement:
Adding the method:
def along_axis(x):
return np.apply_along_axis(f, 0, x)
to the perfplot code gives performance results close to np.sqrt.
How to compare two floating point numbers in Bash?

psycopg2: insert multiple rows with one query
cursor.copy_from is the fastest solution I've found for bulk inserts by far. Here's a gist I made containing a class named IteratorFile which allows an iterator yielding strings to be read like a file. We can convert each input record to a string using a generator expression. So the solution would be
args = [(1,2), (3,4), (5,6)]
f = IteratorFile(("{}\t{}".format(x[0], x[1]) for x in args))
cursor.copy_from(f, 'table_name', columns=('a', 'b'))
For this trivial size of args it won't make much of a speed difference, but I see big speedups when dealing with thousands+ of rows. It will also be more memory efficient than building a giant query string. An iterator would only ever hold one input record in memory at a time, where at some point you'll run out of memory in your Python process or in Postgres by building the query string.
How add spaces between Slick carousel item
Try to use pseudo classes like :first-child & :last-child to remove extra padding from first & last child.
Inspect the generated code of slick slider & try to remove padding on that.
Hope, it'll help!!!
What is the python keyword "with" used for?
In python the with keyword is used when working with unmanaged resources (like file streams). It is similar to the using statement in VB.NET and C#. It allows you to ensure that a resource is "cleaned up" when the code that uses it finishes running, even if exceptions are thrown. It provides 'syntactic sugar' for try/finally blocks.
From Python Docs:
The with statement clarifies code that previously would use try...finally blocks to ensure that clean-up code is executed. In this section, I’ll discuss the statement as it will commonly be used. In the next section, I’ll examine the implementation details and show how to write objects for use with this statement.
The with statement is a control-flow structure whose basic structure is:
with expression [as variable]:
with-block
The expression is evaluated, and it should result in an object that supports the context management protocol (that is, has __enter__() and __exit__() methods).
Update fixed VB callout per Scott Wisniewski's comment. I was indeed confusing with with using.
Spaces in URLs?
The information there is I think partially correct:
That's not true. An URL can use spaces. Nothing defines that a space is replaced with a + sign.
As you noted, an URL can NOT use spaces. The HTTP request would get screwed over. I'm not sure where the + is defined, though %20 is standard.
Get current time in seconds since the Epoch on Linux, Bash
This is an extension to what @pellucide has done, but for Macs:
To determine the number of seconds since epoch (Jan 1 1970) for any given date (e.g. Oct 21 1973)
$ date -j -f "%b %d %Y %T" "Oct 21 1973 00:00:00" "+%s"
120034800
Please note, that for completeness, I have added the time part to the format. The reason being is that date will take whatever date part you gave it and add the current time to the value provided. For example, if you execute the above command at 4:19PM, without the '00:00:00' part, it will add the time automatically. Such that "Oct 21 1973" will be parsed as "Oct 21 1973 16:19:00". That may not be what you want.
To convert your timestamp back to a date:
$ date -j -r 120034800
Sun Oct 21 00:00:00 PDT 1973

https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/Darwin/Reference/ManPages/man1/date.1.html
How to get current instance name from T-SQL
Just to add some clarification to the registry queries. They only list the instances of the matching bitness (32 or 64) for the current instance.
The actual registry key for 32-bit SQL instances on a 64-bit OS is:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server
You can query this on a 64-bit instance to get all 32-bit instances as well. The 32-bit instance seems restricted to the Wow6432Node so cannot read the 64-bit registry tree.
How do you sort an array on multiple columns?
I have just published to npm a micro-library called sort-helper (source on github). The idea is to import the helper by to create the comparison function for sort array method through the syntax items.sort(by(column, ...otherColumns)), with several way to express the columns to sort by:
- By key:
persons.sort(by('lastName', 'firstName')),
- By selector:
dates.sort(by(x => x.toISOString())),
- In descending order:
[3, 2, 4, 1].sort(by(desc(n => n))) ? [3, 2, 1, 0],
- Ignoring case:
['B', 'D', 'c', 'a'].sort(by(ignoreCase(x => x))).join('') ? 'aBcD'.
It's similar to the nice thenBy mentioned in this answer but with the following differences that may be more to the taste of some:
- An approach more functional than object-oriented (see
thenBy fluent API),
- A syntax a bit terser and still as much readable, natural almost like SQL.
- Fully implemented in TypeScript, to benefit from type safety and type expressivity.
ADB Shell Input Events
I wrote a simple Powershell script for windows users to map keys to adb shell input events. And controll an Android device remotely over LAN.
I don't know if anyone finds it usefull, but I'll share it anyways.

cd D:\Android\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools\; .\adb.exe disconnect $ip; .\adb.exe connect $ip
$adbKeyNum = @{LeftWindows = "1"; F1 = "3"; Enter = "66"; UpArrow = "19"; DownArrow = "20"; LeftArrow = "21"; RightArrow = "22"; Add = "24";
Subtract = "25"; Backspace = "4"; P = "26"}
while(1 -eq 1){
$keyPress = [Console]::ReadKey($true).Key
if ([string]$keyPress -eq "F10"){
.\adb.exe disconnect $ip
exit
}
elseif ([string]$keyPress -eq "F6"){
$string = Read-Host -Prompt 'Input the string: '
.\adb.exe shell input text $string
}
elseif ($adbKeyNum.ContainsKey([string]$keyPress)){
echo $adbKeyNum.Get_Item([string]$keyPress)
.\adb.exe shell input keyevent $adbKeyNum.Get_Item([string]$keyPress)
}

Links not going back a directory?
You need to give a relative file path of <a href="../index.html">Home</a>
Alternately you can specify a link from the root of your site with
<a href="/pages/en/index.html">Home</a>
.. and . have special meanings in file paths, .. means up one directory and . means current directory.
so <a href="index.html">Home</a> is the same as <a href="./index.html">Home</a>

PHP: Read Specific Line From File
If you use PHP on Linux, you may try the following to read text for example between 74th and 159th lines:
$text = shell_exec("sed -n '74,159p' path/to/file.log");
This solution is good if your file is large.
How to select into a variable in PL/SQL when the result might be null?
From all the answers above, Björn's answer seems to be the most elegant and short. I personally used this approach many times. MAX or MIN function will do the job equally well. Complete PL/SQL follows, just the where clause should be specified.
declare v_column my_table.column%TYPE;
begin
select MIN(column) into v_column from my_table where ...;
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('v_column=' || v_column);
end;
How can I get an int from stdio in C?
The typical way is with scanf:
int input_value;
scanf("%d", &input_value);
In most cases, however, you want to check whether your attempt at reading input succeeded. scanf returns the number of items it successfully converted, so you typically want to compare the return value against the number of items you expected to read. In this case you're expecting to read one item, so:
if (scanf("%d", &input_value) == 1)
// it succeeded
else
// it failed
Of course, the same is true of all the scanf family (sscanf, fscanf and so on).
Does MS Access support "CASE WHEN" clause if connect with ODBC?
Since you are using Access to compose the query, you have to stick to Access's version of SQL.
To choose between several different return values, use the switch() function. So to translate and extend your example a bit:
select switch(
age > 40, 4,
age > 25, 3,
age > 20, 2,
age > 10, 1,
true, 0
) from demo
The 'true' case is the default one. If you don't have it and none of the other cases match, the function will return null.
The Office website has documentation on this but their example syntax is VBA and it's also wrong. I've given them feedback on this but you should be fine following the above example.
How do you split and unsplit a window/view in Eclipse IDE?
This is possible with the menu items Window>Editor>Toggle Split Editor.
Current shortcut for splitting is:
Azerty keyboard:
- Ctrl + _ for split horizontally, and
- Ctrl + { for split vertically.
Qwerty US keyboard:
- Ctrl + Shift + - (accessing _) for split horizontally, and
- Ctrl + Shift + [ (accessing {) for split vertically.
MacOS - Qwerty US keyboard:
- ⌘ + Shift + - (accessing _) for split horizontally, and
- ⌘ + Shift + [ (accessing {) for split vertically.
On any other keyboard if a required key is unavailable (like { on a german Qwertz keyboard), the following generic approach may work:
- Alt + ASCII code + Ctrl then release Alt
Example: ASCII for '{' = 123, so press 'Alt', '1', '2', '3', 'Ctrl' and release 'Alt', effectively typing '{' while 'Ctrl' is pressed, to split vertically.
Example of vertical split:
PS:
- The menu items Window>Editor>Toggle Split Editor were added with Eclipse Luna 4.4 M4, as mentioned by Lars Vogel in "Split editor implemented in Eclipse M4 Luna"
- The split editor is one of the oldest and most upvoted Eclipse bug! Bug 8009
- The split editor functionality has been developed in Bug 378298, and will be available as of Eclipse Luna M4. The Note & Newsworthy of Eclipse Luna M4 will contain the announcement.
Writing to a file in a for loop
The main problem was that you were opening/closing files repeatedly inside your loop.
Try this approach:
with open('new.txt') as text_file, open('xyz.txt', 'w') as myfile:
for line in text_file:
var1, var2 = line.split(",");
myfile.write(var1+'\n')
We open both files at once and because we are using with they will be automatically closed when we are done (or an exception occurs). Previously your output file was repeatedly openend inside your loop.
We are also processing the file line-by-line, rather than reading all of it into memory at once (which can be a problem when you deal with really big files).
Note that write() doesn't append a newline ('\n') so you'll have to do that yourself if you need it (I replaced your writelines() with write() as you are writing a single item, not a list of items).
When opening a file for rread, the 'r' is optional since it's the default mode.
How to reverse apply a stash?
git stash[save] takes your working directory state, and your index state, and stashes them away, setting index and working area to HEAD version.
git stash apply brings back those changes, so git reset --hard would remove them again.
git stash pop brings back those changes and removes top stashed change, so git stash [save] would return to previous (pre-pop) state in this case.
Received an invalid column length from the bcp client for colid 6
I just stumbled upon this and using @b_stil's snippet, I was able to figure the culprit column. And on futher investigation, I figured i needed to trim the column just like @Liji Chandran suggested but I was using IExcelDataReader and I couldn't figure out an easy way to validate and trim each of my 160 columns.
Then I stumbled upon this class, (ValidatingDataReader) class from CSVReader.
Interesting thing about this class is that it gives you the source and destination columns data length, the culprit row and even the column value that's causing the error.
All I did was just trim all (nvarchar, varchar, char and nchar) columns.
I just changed my GetValue method to this:
object IDataRecord.GetValue(int i)
{
object columnValue = reader.GetValue(i);
if (i > -1 && i < lookup.Length)
{
DataRow columnDef = lookup[i];
if
(
(
(string)columnDef["DataTypeName"] == "varchar" ||
(string)columnDef["DataTypeName"] == "nvarchar" ||
(string)columnDef["DataTypeName"] == "char" ||
(string)columnDef["DataTypeName"] == "nchar"
) &&
(
columnValue != null &&
columnValue != DBNull.Value
)
)
{
string stringValue = columnValue.ToString().Trim();
columnValue = stringValue;
if (stringValue.Length > (int)columnDef["ColumnSize"])
{
string message =
"Column value \"" + stringValue.Replace("\"", "\\\"") + "\"" +
" with length " + stringValue.Length.ToString("###,##0") +
" from source column " + (this as IDataRecord).GetName(i) +
" in record " + currentRecord.ToString("###,##0") +
" does not fit in destination column " + columnDef["ColumnName"] +
" with length " + ((int)columnDef["ColumnSize"]).ToString("###,##0") +
" in table " + tableName +
" in database " + databaseName +
" on server " + serverName + ".";
if (ColumnException == null)
{
throw new Exception(message);
}
else
{
ColumnExceptionEventArgs args = new ColumnExceptionEventArgs();
args.DataTypeName = (string)columnDef["DataTypeName"];
args.DataType = Type.GetType((string)columnDef["DataType"]);
args.Value = columnValue;
args.SourceIndex = i;
args.SourceColumn = reader.GetName(i);
args.DestIndex = (int)columnDef["ColumnOrdinal"];
args.DestColumn = (string)columnDef["ColumnName"];
args.ColumnSize = (int)columnDef["ColumnSize"];
args.RecordIndex = currentRecord;
args.TableName = tableName;
args.DatabaseName = databaseName;
args.ServerName = serverName;
args.Message = message;
ColumnException(args);
columnValue = args.Value;
}
}
}
}
return columnValue;
}

How do I initialize Kotlin's MutableList to empty MutableList?
I do like below to :
var book: MutableList<Books> = mutableListOf()
/** Returns a new [MutableList] with the given elements. */
public fun <T> mutableListOf(vararg elements: T): MutableList<T>
= if (elements.size == 0) ArrayList() else ArrayList(ArrayAsCollection(elements, isVarargs = true))
Is it necessary to use # for creating temp tables in SQL server?
The difference between this two tables ItemBack1 and #ItemBack1 is that the first on is persistent (permanent) where as the other is temporary.
Now if take a look at your question again
Is it necessary to Use # for creating temp table in sql server?
The answer is Yes, because without this preceding # the table will not be a temporary table, it will be independent of all sessions and scopes.
Why do I need to override the equals and hashCode methods in Java?
In the example below, if you comment out the override for equals or hashcode in the Person class, this code will fail to look up Tom's order. Using the default implementation of hashcode can cause failures in hashtable lookups.
What I have below is a simplified code that pulls up people's order by Person. Person is being used as a key in the hashtable.
public class Person {
String name;
int age;
String socialSecurityNumber;
public Person(String name, int age, String socialSecurityNumber) {
this.name = name;
this.age = age;
this.socialSecurityNumber = socialSecurityNumber;
}
@Override
public boolean equals(Object p) {
//Person is same if social security number is same
if ((p instanceof Person) && this.socialSecurityNumber.equals(((Person) p).socialSecurityNumber)) {
return true;
} else {
return false;
}
}
@Override
public int hashCode() { //I am using a hashing function in String.java instead of writing my own.
return socialSecurityNumber.hashCode();
}
}
public class Order {
String[] items;
public void insertOrder(String[] items)
{
this.items=items;
}
}
import java.util.Hashtable;
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Person p1=new Person("Tom",32,"548-56-4412");
Person p2=new Person("Jerry",60,"456-74-4125");
Person p3=new Person("Sherry",38,"418-55-1235");
Order order1=new Order();
order1.insertOrder(new String[]{"mouse","car charger"});
Order order2=new Order();
order2.insertOrder(new String[]{"Multi vitamin"});
Order order3=new Order();
order3.insertOrder(new String[]{"handbag", "iPod"});
Hashtable<Person,Order> hashtable=new Hashtable<Person,Order>();
hashtable.put(p1,order1);
hashtable.put(p2,order2);
hashtable.put(p3,order3);
//The line below will fail if Person class does not override hashCode()
Order tomOrder= hashtable.get(new Person("Tom", 32, "548-56-4412"));
for(String item:tomOrder.items)
{
System.out.println(item);
}
}
}
How to call javascript function on page load in asp.net
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function GetTimeZoneOffset() {
var d = new Date()
var gmtOffSet = -d.getTimezoneOffset();
var gmtHours = Math.floor(gmtOffSet / 60);
var GMTMin = Math.abs(gmtOffSet % 60);
var dot = ".";
var retVal = "" + gmtHours + dot + GMTMin;
document.getElementById('<%= offSet.ClientID%>').value = retVal;
}
</script>
</head>
<body onload="GetTimeZoneOffset()">
<asp:HiddenField ID="clientDateTime" runat="server" />
<asp:HiddenField ID="offSet" runat="server" />
<asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
</body>
</html>
key point to notice here is,body has an attribute onload. Just give it a function name and that function will be called on page load.
Alternatively, you can also call the function on page load event like this
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
window.onload = load();
function load() {
var d = new Date()
var gmtOffSet = -d.getTimezoneOffset();
var gmtHours = Math.floor(gmtOffSet / 60);
var GMTMin = Math.abs(gmtOffSet % 60);
var dot = ".";
var retVal = "" + gmtHours + dot + GMTMin;
document.getElementById('<%= offSet.ClientID%>').value = retVal;
}
</script>
</head>
<body >
<asp:HiddenField ID="clientDateTime" runat="server" />
<asp:HiddenField ID="offSet" runat="server" />
<asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server"></asp:TextBox></body>
</body>
</html>
How can I copy a conditional formatting from one document to another?

Android - How to regenerate R class?
I had the same problem - "R" missing. And none of the advices given here helped. Fortunately, I've found the reason - somehow Eclipse got lost the Project-Properties-target. It was unset. I don't know till now, what had done it, but setting it back helped.
So, attention - missing R can mean the missing target, too!
How to randomly pick an element from an array
If you are going to be getting a random element multiple times, you want to make sure your random number generator is initialized only once.
import java.util.Random;
public class RandArray {
private int[] items = new int[]{1,2,3};
private Random rand = new Random();
public int getRandArrayElement(){
return items[rand.nextInt(items.length)];
}
}
If you are picking random array elements that need to be unpredictable, you should use java.security.SecureRandom rather than Random. That ensures that if somebody knows the last few picks, they won't have an advantage in guessing the next one.
If you are looking to pick a random number from an Object array using generics, you could define a method for doing so (Source Avinash R in Random element from string array):
import java.util.Random;
public class RandArray {
private static Random rand = new Random();
private static <T> T randomFrom(T... items) {
return items[rand.nextInt(items.length)];
}
}
How do I commit only some files?
Some of this seems "incomplete"
Groups of people are NOT going to know if they should use quotes etc..
Add 1 specific file showing the location paths as well
git add JobManager/Controllers/APIs/ProfileApiController.cs
Commit (remember, commit is local only, it is not affecting any other system)
git commit -m "your message"
Push to remote repo
git push (this is after the commit and this attempts to Merge INTO the remote location you have instructed it to merge into)
Other answer(s) show the stash etc. which you sometimes will want to do
WordPress: get author info from post id
I figured it out.
<?php $author_id=$post->post_author; ?>
<img src="<?php the_author_meta( 'avatar' , $author_id ); ?> " width="140" height="140" class="avatar" alt="<?php echo the_author_meta( 'display_name' , $author_id ); ?>" />
<?php the_author_meta( 'user_nicename' , $author_id ); ?>
The provided URI scheme 'https' is invalid; expected 'http'. Parameter name: via
To re-cap the question in the OP:
I am connecting [to a WCF service] using WCFStorm which is able to retrieve all the meta data properly, but when I call the actual method I get:
The provided URI scheme 'https' is invalid; expected 'http'. Parameter name: via
The WCFStorm tutorials addresses this issue in Working with IIS and SSL.
Their solution worked for me:
To fix the error, generate a client config that matches the wcf service configuration. The easiest way to do this is with Visual Studio.
Open Visual Studio and add a service reference to the service. VS will generate an app.config file that matches the service
Edit the app.config file so that it can be read by WCFStorm. Please see Loading Client App.config files. Ensure that the endpoint/@name and endpoint/@contract attributes match the values in wcfstorm.
Load the modified app.config to WCFStorm [using the Client Config toobar button].
Invoke the method. This time the method invocation will no longer fail
Item (1) last bullet in effect means to remove the namespace prefix that VS prepends to the endpoint contract attribute, by default "ServiceReference1"
<endpoint ... contract="ServiceReference1.ListsService" ... />
so in the app.config that you load into WCFStorm you want for ListsService:
<endpoint ... contract="ListsService" ... />
var functionName = function() {} vs function functionName() {}
The first one is an Anonymous Function Expression:
var functionOne = function() {
// some code
};
While the second one is a Function Declaration:
function functionTwo () {
// some code
}
The main clear difference between both is the function name since Anonymous Functions have no name to call.
Named Functions Vs. Anonymous Functions
The anonymous function is quick and easy to type, and many libraries and tools tend to encourage this idiomatic style of code. However, anonymous functions have some drawbacks:
Readability: anonymous functions omit a name which could cause less readable code.
Debugging: anonymous functions have no name in stack traces, which can make debugging more difficult.
Self-Reference: what if the function needs to refer to itself, for recursion for example.
Naming Function Expression:
Providing a name for your function expression quite effectively addresses all these drawbacks, and has no tangible downsides. The best practice is to always name your function expressions:
setTimeout(function timeHandler() { // <-- look, a name here!
console.log("I've waited 1 second");
}, 1000);
Naming IIFEs (Immediate Invoked Function Expression):
(function IIFE(str) { // <-- look, always name IIFEs!
console.log(str); // "Hello!"
})('Hello!');
For functions assigned to a variable, naming the function, in this case, is not very common and may cause confusion, in this case, the arrow function may be a better choice.
What does the Excel range.Rows property really do?
Your two examples are the only things I have ever used the Rows and Columns properties for, but in theory you could do anything with them that can be done with a Range object.
The return type of those properties is itself a Range, so you can do things like:
Dim myRange as Range
Set myRange = Sheet1.Range(Cells(2,2),Cells(8,8))
myRange.Rows(3).Select
Which will select the third row in myRange (Cells B4:H4 in Sheet1).
update: To do what you want to do, you could use:
Dim interestingRows as Range
Set interestingRows = Sheet1.Range(startRow & ":" & endRow)
update #2: Or, to get a subset of rows from within a another range:
Dim someRange As Range
Dim interestingRows As Range
Set myRange = Sheet1.Range(Cells(2, 2), Cells(8, 8))
startRow = 3
endRow = 6
Set interestingRows = Range(myRange.Rows(startRow), myRange.Rows(endRow))
Facebook database design?
Regarding the performance of a many-to-many table, if you have 2 32-bit ints linking user IDs, your basic data storage for 200,000,000 users averaging 200 friends apiece is just under 300GB.
Obviously, you would need some partitioning and indexing and you're not going to keep that in memory for all users.

Disable LESS-CSS Overwriting calc()
Here's a cross-browser less mixin for using CSS's calc with any property:
.calc(@prop; @val) {
@{prop}: calc(~'@{val}');
@{prop}: -moz-calc(~'@{val}');
@{prop}: -webkit-calc(~'@{val}');
@{prop}: -o-calc(~'@{val}');
}
Example usage:
.calc(width; "100% - 200px");
And the CSS that's output:
width: calc(100% - 200px);
width: -moz-calc(100% - 200px);
width: -webkit-calc(100% - 200px);
width: -o-calc(100% - 200px);

Windows 7 SDK installation failure
Do you have access to a PC with Windows 7, or a PC with the SDK already installed?
If so, the easiest solution is to copy the C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.1 folder from the Windows 7 machine to the Windows 8 machine.
Run PowerShell scripts on remote PC
After further investigating on PSExec tool, I think I got the answer. I need to add -i option to tell PSExec to launch process on remote in interactive mode:
PSExec \\RPC001 -i -u myID -p myPWD PowerShell C:\script\StartPS.ps1 par1 par2
Without -i, powershell.exe is running on the remote in waiting mode. Interesting point is that if I run a simple bat (without PS in bat), it works fine. Maybe this is something special for PS case? Welcome comments and explanations.
Any easy way to use icons from resources?
How I load Icons:
Using Visual Studio 2010: Go to the project properties, click Add Resource > Existing File, select your Icon.
You'll see that a Resources folder appeared. This was my problem, I had to click the loaded icon (in Resources directory), and set "Copy to Output Directory" to "Copy always". (was set "Do not copy").
Now simply do:
Icon myIcon = new Icon("Resources/myIcon.ico");
How to run or debug php on Visual Studio Code (VSCode)
The best solution for me was to add a key binding to run PHP code directly in the terminal
To do so you just need to download terminal-command-keys from VS code extensions marketplace:
Then got to File>Preferences>Keyboard Shortcuts and click on the following icon at the upper right corner:
It will open up the keybindings.json file
Add the following settings
[
{
"key": "ctrl+s",
"command":"terminalCommandKeys.run",
"when": "editorLangId == php",
"args": {
"cmd":"php ${file}",
"newTerminal":true,
"saveAllfiles": true,
"showTerminal": true,
}
}
]
key is the shortcut to run your PHP file (I use ctrl+s) you can change it as you wish
when to run different commands for different file types (I set it for PHP files only) vscode's "when" clauses
See the full settings documentation from here
That's it, I hope it helps.
How to convert string to integer in PowerShell
Once you have selected the highest value, which is "12" in my example, you can then declare it as integer and increment your value:
$FileList = "1", "2", "11"
$foldername = [int]$FileList[2] + 1
$foldername
How do I give PHP write access to a directory?
Set the owner of the directory to the user running apache. Often nobody on linux
chown nobody:nobody <dirname>
This way your folder will not be world writable, but still writable for apache :)

where (c.CountryID == cn.ID) && (c.CityID == ct.ID) && (c.SectorID == company.SectorID) && (company.SectorID == sect.ID)
select new { country = cn.Name, city = ct.Name, c.ID, c.Name, c.Address1, c.Address2, c.Address3, c.CountryID, c.CityID, c.Region, c.PostCode, c.Telephone, c.Website, c.SectorID, Status = (ContactStatus)c.StatusID, sector = sect.Name };
return results.ToList();
Copy folder recursively, excluding some folders
you can use tar, with --exclude option , and then untar it in destination. eg
cd /source_directory
tar cvf test.tar --exclude=dir_to_exclude *
mv test.tar /destination
cd /destination
tar xvf test.tar
see the man page of tar for more info

QColorDialog *dialog = new QColorDialog(this);
QColor color= dialog->getColor();
QVariant variant= color;
QString colcode = variant.toString();
ui->label->setStyleSheet("QLabel { background-color :"+colcode+" ; color : blue; }");
getColor() method returns the selected color.
You can change label color using stylesheet
Error QApplication: no such file or directory
In Qt5 you should use QtWidgets instead of QtGui
#include <QtGui/QComboBox> // incorrect in QT5
#include <QtWidgets/QComboBox> // correct in QT5
Or
#include <QtGui/QStringListModel> // incorrect in QT5
#include <QtCore/QStringListModel> // correct in QT5
Remote Procedure call failed with sql server 2008 R2
After trying everything between Stackoverflow and Google, I finally found a solution : http://blogs.lessthandot.com/index.php/datamgmt/dbadmin/remote-procedure-call-failed/
TL;DR :
If you are (or were) running multiple versions of SQL Server on your machine, that Configuration Manager shortcut on your start menu might be pointing to an older version, which it shouldn't be. It was pointing to an old Sql Server 2008 instance in my case.
The solution was to :
- Go to either C:\Windows\SysWOW64 or C:\Windows\System32, depending on your system.
- Look for an executable called SQLServerManagerXX.msc, and run the latest version if you have multiple ones. In my case, I had both SQLServerManager11.msc and SQLServerManager10.msc, where the 10th gave the error, and the 11th worked perfectly.
VBA setting the formula for a cell
Try:
.Formula = "='" & strProjectName & "'!" & Cells(2, 7).Address
If your worksheet name (strProjectName) has spaces, you need to include the single quotes in the formula string.
If this does not resolve it, please provide more information about the specific error or failure.
Update
In comments you indicate you're replacing spaces with underscores. Perhaps you are doing something like:
strProjectName = Replace(strProjectName," ", "_")
But if you're not also pushing that change to the Worksheet.Name property, you can expect these to happen:
- The file browse dialog appears
- The formula returns
#REF error
The reason for both is that you are passing a reference to a worksheet that doesn't exist, which is why you get the #REF error. The file dialog is an attempt to let you correct that reference, by pointing to a file wherein that sheet name does exist. When you cancel out, the #REF error is expected.
So you need to do:
Worksheets(strProjectName).Name = Replace(strProjectName," ", "_")
strProjectName = Replace(strProjectName," ", "_")
Then, your formula should work.
What are database normal forms and can you give examples?
1NF: Only one value per column
2NF: All the non primary key columns in the table should depend on the entire primary key.
3NF: All the non primary key columns in the table should depend DIRECTLY on the entire primary key.
I have written an article in more detail over here
How to redirect stdout to both file and console with scripting?
you can redirect the output to a file by using >> python with print rint's "chevron" syntax as indicated in the docs
let see,
fp=open('test.log','a') # take file object reference
print >> fp , "hello world" #use file object with in print statement.
print >> fp , "every thing will redirect to file "
fp.close() #close the file
checkout the file test.log you will have the data
and to print on console just use plain print statement .
How to run TestNG from command line
If you are using Maven, you can run it from the cmd line really easy, cd into the directory with the testng.xml (or whatever yours is called, the xml that has all the classes that will run) and run this cmd:
mvn clean test -DsuiteXmlFile=testng.xml
This page explains it in much more detail: How to run testng.xml from Maven command line
I didn't know it mattered if you were using Maven or not so I didn't include it in my search terms, I thought I would mention it here in case others are in the same situation as I was.
Android Bluetooth Example
I have also used following link as others have suggested you for bluetooth communication.
http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/connectivity/bluetooth.html
The thing is all you need is a class BluetoothChatService.java
this class has following threads:
- Accept
- Connecting
- Connected
Now when you call start function of the BluetoothChatService like:
mChatService.start();
It starts accept thread which means it will start looking for connection.
Now when you call
mChatService.connect(<deviceObject>,false/true);
Here first argument is device object that you can get from paired devices list or when you scan for devices you will get all the devices in range you can pass that object to this function and 2nd argument is a boolean to make secure or insecure connection.
connect function will start connecting thread which will look for any device which is running accept thread.
When such a device is found both accept thread and connecting thread will call connected function in BluetoothChatService:
connected(mmSocket, mmDevice, mSocketType);
this method starts connected thread in both the devices:
Using this socket object connected thread obtains the input and output stream to the other device.
And calls read function on inputstream in a while loop so that it's always trying read from other device so that whenever other device send a message this read function returns that message.
BluetoothChatService also has a write method which takes byte[] as input and calls write method on connected thread.
mChatService.write("your message".getByte());
write method in connected thread just write this byte data to outputsream of the other device.
public void write(byte[] buffer) {
try {
mmOutStream.write(buffer);
// Share the sent message back to the UI Activity
// mHandler.obtainMessage(
// BluetoothGameSetupActivity.MESSAGE_WRITE, -1, -1,
// buffer).sendToTarget();
} catch (IOException e) {
Log.e(TAG, "Exception during write", e);
}
}
Now to communicate between two devices just call write function on mChatService and handle the message that you will receive on the other device.
How to use a client certificate to authenticate and authorize in a Web API
Update:
Example from Microsoft:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/app-service/app-service-web-configure-tls-mutual-auth#special-considerations-for-certificate-validation
Original
This is how I got client certification working and checking that a specific Root CA had issued it as well as it being a specific certificate.
First I edited <src>\.vs\config\applicationhost.config and made this change: <section name="access" overrideModeDefault="Allow" />
This allows me to edit <system.webServer> in web.config and add the following lines which will require a client certification in IIS Express. Note: I edited this for development purposes, do not allow overrides in production.
For production follow a guide like this to set up the IIS:
https://medium.com/@hafizmohammedg/configuring-client-certificates-on-iis-95aef4174ddb
web.config:
<security>
<access sslFlags="Ssl,SslNegotiateCert,SslRequireCert" />
</security>
API Controller:
[RequireSpecificCert]
public class ValuesController : ApiController
{
// GET api/values
public IHttpActionResult Get()
{
return Ok("It works!");
}
}
Attribute:
public class RequireSpecificCertAttribute : AuthorizationFilterAttribute
{
public override void OnAuthorization(HttpActionContext actionContext)
{
if (actionContext.Request.RequestUri.Scheme != Uri.UriSchemeHttps)
{
actionContext.Response = new HttpResponseMessage(System.Net.HttpStatusCode.Forbidden)
{
ReasonPhrase = "HTTPS Required"
};
}
else
{
X509Certificate2 cert = actionContext.Request.GetClientCertificate();
if (cert == null)
{
actionContext.Response = new HttpResponseMessage(System.Net.HttpStatusCode.Forbidden)
{
ReasonPhrase = "Client Certificate Required"
};
}
else
{
X509Chain chain = new X509Chain();
//Needed because the error "The revocation function was unable to check revocation for the certificate" happened to me otherwise
chain.ChainPolicy = new X509ChainPolicy()
{
RevocationMode = X509RevocationMode.NoCheck,
};
try
{
var chainBuilt = chain.Build(cert);
Debug.WriteLine(string.Format("Chain building status: {0}", chainBuilt));
var validCert = CheckCertificate(chain, cert);
if (chainBuilt == false || validCert == false)
{
actionContext.Response = new HttpResponseMessage(System.Net.HttpStatusCode.Forbidden)
{
ReasonPhrase = "Client Certificate not valid"
};
foreach (X509ChainStatus chainStatus in chain.ChainStatus)
{
Debug.WriteLine(string.Format("Chain error: {0} {1}", chainStatus.Status, chainStatus.StatusInformation));
}
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
Debug.WriteLine(ex.ToString());
}
}
base.OnAuthorization(actionContext);
}
}
private bool CheckCertificate(X509Chain chain, X509Certificate2 cert)
{
var rootThumbprint = WebConfigurationManager.AppSettings["rootThumbprint"].ToUpper().Replace(" ", string.Empty);
var clientThumbprint = WebConfigurationManager.AppSettings["clientThumbprint"].ToUpper().Replace(" ", string.Empty);
//Check that the certificate have been issued by a specific Root Certificate
var validRoot = chain.ChainElements.Cast<X509ChainElement>().Any(x => x.Certificate.Thumbprint.Equals(rootThumbprint, StringComparison.InvariantCultureIgnoreCase));
//Check that the certificate thumbprint matches our expected thumbprint
var validCert = cert.Thumbprint.Equals(clientThumbprint, StringComparison.InvariantCultureIgnoreCase);
return validRoot && validCert;
}
}
Can then call the API with client certification like this, tested from another web project.
[RoutePrefix("api/certificatetest")]
public class CertificateTestController : ApiController
{
public IHttpActionResult Get()
{
var handler = new WebRequestHandler();
handler.ClientCertificateOptions = ClientCertificateOption.Manual;
handler.ClientCertificates.Add(GetClientCert());
handler.UseProxy = false;
var client = new HttpClient(handler);
var result = client.GetAsync("https://localhost:44331/api/values").GetAwaiter().GetResult();
var resultString = result.Content.ReadAsStringAsync().GetAwaiter().GetResult();
return Ok(resultString);
}
private static X509Certificate GetClientCert()
{
X509Store store = null;
try
{
store = new X509Store(StoreName.My, StoreLocation.CurrentUser);
store.Open(OpenFlags.OpenExistingOnly | OpenFlags.ReadOnly);
var certificateSerialNumber= "?81 c6 62 0a 73 c7 b1 aa 41 06 a3 ce 62 83 ae 25".ToUpper().Replace(" ", string.Empty);
//Does not work for some reason, could be culture related
//var certs = store.Certificates.Find(X509FindType.FindBySerialNumber, certificateSerialNumber, true);
//if (certs.Count == 1)
//{
// var cert = certs[0];
// return cert;
//}
var cert = store.Certificates.Cast<X509Certificate>().FirstOrDefault(x => x.GetSerialNumberString().Equals(certificateSerialNumber, StringComparison.InvariantCultureIgnoreCase));
return cert;
}
finally
{
store?.Close();
}
}
}
What does the explicit keyword mean?
Constructors append implicit conversion. To suppress this implicit conversion it is required to declare a constructor with a parameter explicit.
In C++11 you can also specify an "operator type()" with such keyword http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/explicit With such specification you can use operator in terms of explicit conversions, and direct initialization of object.
P.S. When using transformations defined BY USER (via constructors and type conversion operator) it is allowed only one level of implicit conversions used.
But you can combine this conversions with other language conversions
- up integral ranks (char to int, float to double);
- standart conversions (int to double);
- convert pointers of objects to base class and to void*;
How to watch for form changes in Angular
To complete a bit more previous great answers, you need to be aware that forms leverage observables to detect and handle value changes. It's something really important and powerful. Both Mark and dfsq described this aspect in their answers.
Observables allow not only to use the subscribe method (something similar to the then method of promises in Angular 1). You can go further if needed to implement some processing chains for updated data in forms.
I mean you can specify at this level the debounce time with the debounceTime method. This allows you to wait for an amount of time before handling the change and correctly handle several inputs:
this.form.valueChanges
.debounceTime(500)
.subscribe(data => console.log('form changes', data));
You can also directly plug the processing you want to trigger (some asynchronous one for example) when values are updated. For example, if you want to handle a text value to filter a list based on an AJAX request, you can leverage the switchMap method:
this.textValue.valueChanges
.debounceTime(500)
.switchMap(data => this.httpService.getListValues(data))
.subscribe(data => console.log('new list values', data));
You even go further by linking the returned observable directly to a property of your component:
this.list = this.textValue.valueChanges
.debounceTime(500)
.switchMap(data => this.httpService.getListValues(data))
.subscribe(data => console.log('new list values', data));
and display it using the async pipe:
<ul>
<li *ngFor="#elt of (list | async)">{{elt.name}}</li>
</ul>
Just to say that you need to think the way to handle forms differently in Angular2 (a much more powerful way ;-)).
Hope it helps you,
Thierry
Combine two tables that have no common fields
This is a very strange request, and almost certainly something you'd never want to do in a real-world application, but from a purely academic standpoint it's an interesting challenge. With SQL Server 2005 you could use common table expressions and the row_number() functions and join on that:
with OrderedFoos as (
select row_number() over (order by FooName) RowNum, *
from Foos (nolock)
),
OrderedBars as (
select row_number() over (order by BarName) RowNum, *
from Bars (nolock)
)
select *
from OrderedFoos f
full outer join OrderedBars u on u.RowNum = f.RowNum
This works, but it's supremely silly and I offer it only as a "community wiki" answer because I really wouldn't recommend it.
How to specify the port an ASP.NET Core application is hosted on?
I fixed the port issue in Net core 3.1 by using the following
In the Program.cs
public class Program
{
public static void Main(string[] args)
{
CreateHostBuilder(args).Build().Run();
}
public static IHostBuilder CreateHostBuilder(string[] args) => Host.CreateDefaultBuilder(args)
.ConfigureWebHost(x => x.UseUrls("https://localhost:4000", "http://localhost:4001"))
.ConfigureWebHostDefaults(webBuilder => { webBuilder.UseStartup<Startup>(); });
}
You can access the application using
http://localhost:4000
https://localhost:4001
PowerShell to remove text from a string

How to use localization in C#
A fix and elaboration of @Fredrik Mörk answer.
- Add a
strings.resx Resource file to your project (or a different filename)
- Set
Access Modifier to Public (in the opened strings.resx file tab)
- Add a string resouce in the resx file: (example: name
Hello, value Hello)
- Save the resource file
Visual Studio auto-generates a respective strings class, which is actually placed in strings.Designer.cs. The class is in the same namespace that you would expect a newly created .cs file to be placed in.
This code always prints Hello, because this is the default resource and no language-specific resources are available:
Console.WriteLine(strings.Hello);
Now add a new language-specific resource:
- Add
strings.fr.resx (for French)
- Add a string with the same name as previously, but different value: (name
Hello, value Salut)
The following code prints Salut:
Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = CultureInfo.GetCultureInfo("fr-FR");
Console.WriteLine(strings.Hello);
What resource is used depends on Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture. It is set depending on Windows UI language setting, or can be set manually like in this example. Learn more about this here.
You can add country-specific resources like strings.fr-FR.resx or strings.fr-CA.resx.
The string to be used is determined in this priority order:
- From country-specific resource like
strings.fr-CA.resx
- From language-specific resource like
strings.fr.resx
- From default
strings.resx
Note that language-specific resources generate satellite assemblies.
Also learn how CurrentCulture differs from CurrentUICulture here.
Encode html entities in javascript
The currently accepted answer has several issues. This post explains them, and offers a more robust solution. The solution suggested in that answer previously had:
var encodedStr = rawStr.replace(/[\u00A0-\u9999<>\&]/gim, function(i) {
return '&#' + i.charCodeAt(0) + ';';
});
The i flag is redundant since no Unicode symbol in the range from U+00A0 to U+9999 has an uppercase/lowercase variant that is outside of that same range.
The m flag is redundant because ^ or $ are not used in the regular expression.
Why the range U+00A0 to U+9999? It seems arbitrary.
Anyway, for a solution that correctly encodes all except safe & printable ASCII symbols in the input (including astral symbols!), and implements all named character references (not just those in HTML4), use the he library (disclaimer: This library is mine). From its README:
he (for “HTML entities”) is a robust HTML entity encoder/decoder written in JavaScript. It supports all standardized named character references as per HTML, handles ambiguous ampersands and other edge cases just like a browser would, has an extensive test suite, and — contrary to many other JavaScript solutions — he handles astral Unicode symbols just fine. An online demo is available.

What causes a java.lang.StackOverflowError
What actually causes a java.lang.StackOverflowError is typically unintentional recursion. For me it's often when I intended to call a super method for the overidden method. Such as in this case:
public class Vehicle {
public void accelerate(float acceleration, float maxVelocity) {
// set the acceleration
}
}
public class SpaceShip extends Vehicle {
@Override
public void accelerate(float acceleration, float maxVelocity) {
// update the flux capacitor and call super.accelerate
// oops meant to call super.accelerate(acceleration, maxVelocity);
// but accidentally wrote this instead. A StackOverflow is in our future.
this.accelerate(acceleration, maxVelocity);
}
}
First, it's useful to know what happens behind the scenes when we call a function. The arguments and the address of where the method was called is pushed on the stack (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stack_(abstract_data_type)#Runtime_memory_management) so that the called method can access the arguments and so that when the called method is completed, execution can continue after the call. But since we are calling this.accelerate(acceleration, maxVelocity) recursively (recursion is loosely when a method calls itself. For more info see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recursion_(computer_science)) we are in a situation known as infinite recursion and we keep piling the arguments and return address on the call stack. Since the call stack is finite in size, we eventually run out of space. The running out of space on the call stack is known as overflow. This is because we are trying to use more stack space than we have and the data literally overflows the stack. In the Java programming language, this results in the runtime exception java.lang.StackOverflow and will immediately halt the program.
The above example is somewhat simplified (although it happens to me more than I'd like to admit.) The same thing can happen in a more round about way making it a bit harder to track down. However, in general, the StackOverflow is usually pretty easy to resolve, once it occurs.
In theory, it is also possible to have a stack overflow without recursion, but in practice, it would appear to be a fairly rare event.
What is the easiest way to initialize a std::vector with hardcoded elements?
Related, you can use the following if you want to have a vector completely ready to go in a quick statement (e.g. immediately passing to another function):
#define VECTOR(first,...) \
([](){ \
static const decltype(first) arr[] = { first,__VA_ARGS__ }; \
std::vector<decltype(first)> ret(arr, arr + sizeof(arr) / sizeof(*arr)); \
return ret;})()
example function
template<typename T>
void test(std::vector<T>& values)
{
for(T value : values)
std::cout<<value<<std::endl;
}
example use
test(VECTOR(1.2f,2,3,4,5,6));
though be careful about the decltype, make sure the first value is clearly what you want.
