AngularJS POST Fails: Response for preflight has invalid HTTP status code 404

You have enabled CORS and enabled Access-Control-Allow-Origin : * in the server.If still you get GET method working and POST method is not working then it might be because of the problem of Content-Type and data problem.

First AngularJS transmits data using Content-Type: application/json which is not serialized natively by some of the web servers (notably PHP). For them we have to transmit the data as Content-Type: x-www-form-urlencoded

Example :-

        $scope.formLoginPost = function () {
            $http({
                url: url,
                method: "POST",
                data: $.param({ 'username': $scope.username, 'Password': $scope.Password }),
                headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded' }
            }).then(function (response) {
                // success
                console.log('success');
                console.log("then : " + JSON.stringify(response));
            }, function (response) { // optional
                // failed
                console.log('failed');
                console.log(JSON.stringify(response));
            });
        };

Note : I am using $.params to serialize the data to use Content-Type: x-www-form-urlencoded. Alternatively you can use the following javascript function

function params(obj){
    var str = "";
    for (var key in obj) {
        if (str != "") {
            str += "&";
        }
        str += key + "=" + encodeURIComponent(obj[key]);
    }
    return str;
}

and use params({ 'username': $scope.username, 'Password': $scope.Password }) to serialize it as the Content-Type: x-www-form-urlencoded requests only gets the POST data in username=john&Password=12345 form.

Replace deprecated preg_replace /e with preg_replace_callback

You can use an anonymous function to pass the matches to your function:

$result = preg_replace_callback(
    "/\{([<>])([a-zA-Z0-9_]*)(\?{0,1})([a-zA-Z0-9_]*)\}(.*)\{\\1\/\\2\}/isU",
    function($m) { return CallFunction($m[1], $m[2], $m[3], $m[4], $m[5]); },
    $result
);

Apart from being faster, this will also properly handle double quotes in your string. Your current code using /e would convert a double quote " into \".

Fastest way to iterate over all the chars in a String

String.toCharArray() creates new char array, means allocation of memory of string length, then copies original char array of string using System.arraycopy() and then returns this copy to caller. String.charAt() returns character at position i from original copy, that's why String.charAt() will be faster than String.toCharArray(). Although, String.toCharArray() returns copy and not char from original String array, where String.charAt() returns character from original char array. Code below returns value at the specified index of this string.

public char charAt(int index) {
    if ((index < 0) || (index >= value.length)) {
        throw new StringIndexOutOfBoundsException(index);
    }
    return value[index];
}

code below returns a newly allocated character array whose length is the length of this string

public char[] toCharArray() {
    // Cannot use Arrays.copyOf because of class initialization order issues
    char result[] = new char[value.length];
    System.arraycopy(value, 0, result, 0, value.length);
    return result;
}

Why is null an object and what's the difference between null and undefined?

The difference can be summarized into this snippet:

alert(typeof(null));      // object
alert(typeof(undefined)); // undefined

alert(null !== undefined) //true
alert(null == undefined)  //true

Checking

object == null is different to check if ( !object ).

The latter is equal to ! Boolean(object), because the unary ! operator automatically cast the right operand into a Boolean.

Since Boolean(null) equals false then !false === true.

So if your object is not null, but false or 0 or "", the check will pass because:

alert(Boolean(null)) //false
alert(Boolean(0))    //false
alert(Boolean(""))   //false

How to simulate a click with JavaScript?

The top answer is the best! However, it was not triggering mouse events for me in Firefox when etype = 'click'.

So, I changed the document.createEvent to 'MouseEvents' and that fixed the problem. The extra code is to test whether or not another bit of code was interfering with the event, and if it was cancelled I would log that to console.

function eventFire(el, etype){
  if (el.fireEvent) {
    el.fireEvent('on' + etype);
  } else {
    var evObj = document.createEvent('MouseEvents');
    evObj.initEvent(etype, true, false);
    var canceled = !el.dispatchEvent(evObj);
    if (canceled) {
      // A handler called preventDefault.
      console.log("automatic click canceled");
    } else {
      // None of the handlers called preventDefault.
    } 
  }
}

How to send 500 Internal Server Error error from a PHP script

You can just put:

header("HTTP/1.0 500 Internal Server Error");

inside your conditions like:

if (that happened) {
    header("HTTP/1.0 500 Internal Server Error");
}

As for the database query, you can just do that like this:

$result = mysql_query("..query string..") or header("HTTP/1.0 500 Internal Server Error");

You should remember that you have to put this code before any html tag (or output).

What's the best way to break from nested loops in JavaScript?

If you use Coffeescript, there is a convenient "do" keyword that makes it easier to define and immediately execute an anonymous function:

do ->
  for a in first_loop
    for b in second_loop
      if condition(...)
        return

...so you can simply use "return" to get out of the loops.

C# How to change font of a label

You can't change a Font once it's created - so you need to create a new one:

  mainForm.lblName.Font = new Font("Arial", mainForm.lblName.Font.Size);

Resize Google Maps marker icon image

If the original size is 100 x 100 and you want to scale it to 50 x 50, use scaledSize instead of Size.

var icon = {
    url: "../res/sit_marron.png", // url
    scaledSize: new google.maps.Size(50, 50), // scaled size
    origin: new google.maps.Point(0,0), // origin
    anchor: new google.maps.Point(0, 0) // anchor
};

var marker = new google.maps.Marker({
    position: new google.maps.LatLng(lat, lng),
    map: map,
    icon: icon
});

node.js hash string?

Considering the thoughts from http://www.thoughtcrime.org/blog/the-cryptographic-doom-principle/ (in short: FIRST encrypt, THEN authenticate. Afterwards FIRST verify, THEN decrypt) I have implemented the following solution in node.js:

function encrypt(text,password){
  var cipher = crypto.createCipher(algorithm,password)
  var crypted = cipher.update(text,'utf8','hex')
  crypted += cipher.final('hex');
  return crypted;
}

function decrypt(text,password){
  var decipher = crypto.createDecipher(algorithm,password)
  var dec = decipher.update(text,'hex','utf8')
  dec += decipher.final('utf8');
  return dec;
}

function hashText(text){
    var hash = crypto.createHash('md5').update(text).digest("hex");
    //console.log(hash); 
    return hash;
}

function encryptThenAuthenticate(plainText,pw)
{
    var encryptedText = encrypt(plainText,pw);
    var hash = hashText(encryptedText);
    return encryptedText+"$"+hash;
}
function VerifyThenDecrypt(encryptedAndAuthenticatedText,pw)
{
    var encryptedAndHashArray = encryptedAndAuthenticatedText.split("$");
    var encrypted = encryptedAndHashArray[0];
    var hash = encryptedAndHashArray[1];
    var hash2Compare = hashText(encrypted);
    if (hash === hash2Compare)
    {
        return decrypt(encrypted,pw); 
    }
}

It can be tested with:

var doom = encryptThenAuthenticate("The encrypted text",user.cryptoPassword);
console.log(VerifyThenDecrypt(doom,user.cryptoPassword));

Hope this helps :-)

H.264 file size for 1 hr of HD video

It would be a couple of gigs per hour.

MPEG-4 (of which H.264 is a sub-part) define high quality as around 4Mbps. which would be 1.8GB per hour.

This can vary depending on the type of video and the type of compression used.

What are -moz- and -webkit-?

These are the vendor-prefixed properties offered by the relevant rendering engines (-webkit for Chrome, Safari; -moz for Firefox, -o for Opera, -ms for Internet Explorer). Typically they're used to implement new, or proprietary CSS features, prior to final clarification/definition by the W3.

This allows properties to be set specific to each individual browser/rendering engine in order for inconsistencies between implementations to be safely accounted for. The prefixes will, over time, be removed (at least in theory) as the unprefixed, the final version, of the property is implemented in that browser.

To that end it's usually considered good practice to specify the vendor-prefixed version first and then the non-prefixed version, in order that the non-prefixed property will override the vendor-prefixed property-settings once it's implemented; for example:

.elementClass {
    -moz-border-radius: 2em;
    -ms-border-radius: 2em;
    -o-border-radius: 2em;
    -webkit-border-radius: 2em;
    border-radius: 2em;
}

Specifically, to address the CSS in your question, the lines you quote:

-webkit-column-count: 3;
-webkit-column-gap: 10px;
-webkit-column-fill: auto;
-moz-column-count: 3;
-moz-column-gap: 10px;
-moz-column-fill: auto;

Specify the column-count, column-gap and column-fill properties for Webkit browsers and Firefox.

Vertical align in bootstrap table

Based on what you have provided your CSS selector is not specific enough to override the CSS rules defined by Bootstrap.

Try this:

.table > tbody > tr > td {
     vertical-align: middle;
}

In Boostrap 4, this can be achieved with the .align-middle Vertical Alignment utility class.

<td class="align-middle">Text</td>

How can I parse a String to BigDecimal?

Try the correct constructor http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/math/BigDecimal.html#BigDecimal(java.lang.String)

You can directly instanciate the BigDecimal with the String ;)

Example:

BigDecimal bigDecimalValue= new BigDecimal("0.5");

Laravel: Error [PDOException]: Could not Find Driver in PostgreSQL

Just run this command

sudo apt-get -y install php*-mysql

typecast string to integer - Postgres

If the value contains non-numeric characters, you can convert the value to an integer as follows:

SELECT CASE WHEN <column>~E'^\\d+$' THEN CAST (<column> AS INTEGER) ELSE 0 END FROM table;

The CASE operator checks the < column>, if it matches the integer pattern, it converts the rate into an integer, otherwise it returns 0

Replace missing values with column mean

A one-liner using tidyr's replace_na is

library(tidyr)
replace_na(mtcars,as.list(colMeans(mtcars,na.rm=T)))

If your df has columns that are non-numeric, this takes a little bit more work than a one-liner.

mean_to_fill <- select_if(ungroup(df), is.numeric) %>%
 colMeans(na.rm=T)

bind_cols(select(df, group1, group2, group3),
          select_if(ungroup(df), is.numeric) %>% 
            tidyr::replace_na(as.list(mean_to_fill))
          ) 

Typescript - multidimensional array initialization

Beware of the use of push method, if you don't use indexes, it won't work!

var main2dArray: Things[][] = []

main2dArray.push(someTmp1dArray)
main2dArray.push(someOtherTmp1dArray)

gives only a 1 line array!

use

main2dArray[0] = someTmp1dArray
main2dArray[1] = someOtherTmp1dArray

to get your 2d array working!!!

Other beware! foreach doesn't seem to work with 2d arrays!

Datetime equal or greater than today in MySQL

SELECT * FROM table_name WHERE CONCAT( SUBSTRING(json_date, 11, 4 ) ,  '-', SUBSTRING( json_date, 7, 2 ) ,  '-', SUBSTRING(json_date, 3, 2 ) ) >= NOW();

Convert txt to csv python script

I suposse this is the output you need:

title,intro,tagline

2.9,Gardena,CA

It can be done with this changes to your code:

import csv
import itertools

with open('log.txt', 'r') as in_file:
    lines = in_file.read().splitlines()
    stripped = [line.replace(","," ").split() for line in lines]
    grouped = itertools.izip(*[stripped]*1)
    with open('log.csv', 'w') as out_file:
        writer = csv.writer(out_file)
        writer.writerow(('title', 'intro', 'tagline'))
        for group in grouped:
            writer.writerows(group)

Dialog to pick image from gallery or from camera

This library makes it simple.

Just Call:

PickImageDialog.on(MainActivity.this, new PickSetup(BuildConfig.APPLICATION_ID));

Then make your Activity implement IPickResult and override this below method.

@Override
public void onPickResult(PickResult r) {
    if (r.getError() == null) {
        imageView.setImageBitmap(r.getBitmap());

        //or

        imageView.setImageURI(r.getUri());
    } else {
        //Handle possible errors
        //TODO: do what you have to do with r.getError();
    }
}

How do I kill background processes / jobs when my shell script exits?

To clean up some mess, trap can be used. It can provide a list of stuff executed when a specific signal arrives:

trap "echo hello" SIGINT

but can also be used to execute something if the shell exits:

trap "killall background" EXIT

It's a builtin, so help trap will give you information (works with bash). If you only want to kill background jobs, you can do

trap 'kill $(jobs -p)' EXIT

Watch out to use single ', to prevent the shell from substituting the $() immediately.

How to set width to 100% in WPF

It is the container of the Grid that is imposing on its width. In this case, that's a ListBoxItem, which is left-aligned by default. You can set it to stretch as follows:

<ListBox>
    <!-- other XAML omitted, you just need to add the following bit -->
    <ListBox.ItemContainerStyle>
        <Style TargetType="ListBoxItem">
            <Setter Property="HorizontalAlignment" Value="Stretch"/>
        </Style>
    </ListBox.ItemContainerStyle>
</ListBox>

Pointtype command for gnuplot

pycharm running way slow

Well Lorenz Lo Sauer already have a good question for this. but if you want to resolve this problem through the Pycharm Tuning (without turning off Pycharm code inspection). you can tuning the heap size as you need. since I prefer to use increasing Heap Size solution for slow running Pycharm Application.

You can tune up Heap Size by editing pycharm.exe.vmoptions file. and pycharm64.exe.vmoptions for 64bit application. and then edit -Xmx and -Xms value on it.

So I allocate 2048m for xmx and xms value (which is 2GB) for my Pycharm Heap Size. Here it is My Configuration. I have 8GB memory so I had set it up with this setting:

-server
-Xms2048m
-Xmx2048m
-XX:MaxPermSize=2048m
-XX:ReservedCodeCacheSize=2048m

save the setting, and restart IDE. And I enable "Show memory indicator" in settings->Appearance & Behavior->Appearance. to see it in action :

Pycharm slow, slow typing, increase Pycharm Heap Size

and Pycharm is quick and running fine now.

Disable output buffering

You can create an unbuffered file and assign this file to sys.stdout.

import sys 
myFile= open( "a.log", "w", 0 ) 
sys.stdout= myFile

You can't magically change the system-supplied stdout; since it's supplied to your python program by the OS.

Shell script to get the process ID on Linux

Using grep on the results of ps is a bad idea in a script, since some proportion of the time it will also match the grep process you've just invoked. The command pgrep avoids this problem, so if you need to know the process ID, that's a better option. (Note that, of course, there may be many processes matched.)

However, in your example, you could just use the similar command pkill to kill all matching processes:

pkill ruby

Incidentally, you should be aware that using -9 is overkill (ho ho) in almost every case - there's some useful advice about that in the text of the "Useless Use of kill -9 form letter ":

No no no. Don't use kill -9.

It doesn't give the process a chance to cleanly:

  1. shut down socket connections
  2. clean up temp files
  3. inform its children that it is going away
  4. reset its terminal characteristics

and so on and so on and so on.

Generally, send 15, and wait a second or two, and if that doesn't work, send 2, and if that doesn't work, send 1. If that doesn't, REMOVE THE BINARY because the program is badly behaved!

Don't use kill -9. Don't bring out the combine harvester just to tidy up the flower pot.

string.Replace in AngularJs

In Javascript method names are camel case, so it's replace, not Replace:

$scope.newString = oldString.replace("stackover","NO");

Note that contrary to how the .NET Replace method works, the Javascript replace method replaces only the first occurrence if you are using a string as first parameter. If you want to replace all occurrences you need to use a regular expression so that you can specify the global (g) flag:

$scope.newString = oldString.replace(/stackover/g,"NO");

See this example.

Get JavaScript object from array of objects by value of property

If you are looking for a single result, rather than an array, may I suggest reduce?

PHP cURL custom headers

Here is one basic function:

/**
 * 
 * @param string $url
 * @param string|array $post_fields
 * @param array $headers
 * @return type
 */
function cUrlGetData($url, $post_fields = null, $headers = null) {
    $ch = curl_init();
    $timeout = 5;
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
    if ($post_fields && !empty($post_fields)) {
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $post_fields);
    }
    if ($headers && !empty($headers)) {
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers);
    }
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, 0);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, 0);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, $timeout);
    $data = curl_exec($ch);
    if (curl_errno($ch)) {
        echo 'Error:' . curl_error($ch);
    }
    curl_close($ch);
    return $data;
}

Usage example:

$url = "http://www.myurl.com";
$post_fields = 'postvars=val1&postvars2=val2';
$headers = ['Content-Type' => 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded', 'charset' => 'utf-8'];
$dat = cUrlGetData($url, $post_fields, $headers);

String "true" and "false" to boolean

Looking at the source code of Virtus, I'd maybe do something like this:

def to_boolean(s)
  map = Hash[%w[true yes 1].product([true]) + %w[false no 0].product([false])]
  map[s.to_s.downcase]
end

Creating files in C++

One way to do this is to create an instance of the ofstream class, and use it to write to your file. Here's a link to a website that has some example code, and some more information about the standard tools available with most implementations of C++:

ofstream reference

For completeness, here's some example code:

// using ofstream constructors.
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>  

std::ofstream outfile ("test.txt");

outfile << "my text here!" << std::endl;

outfile.close();

You want to use std::endl to end your lines. An alternative is using '\n' character. These two things are different, std::endl flushes the buffer and writes your output immediately while '\n' allows the outfile to put all of your output into a buffer and maybe write it later.

How do you copy the contents of an array to a std::vector in C++ without looping?

Since I can only edit my own answer, I'm going to make a composite answer from the other answers to my question. Thanks to all of you who answered.

Using std::copy, this still iterates in the background, but you don't have to type out the code.

int foo(int* data, int size)
{
   static std::vector<int> my_data; //normally a class variable
   std::copy(data, data + size, std::back_inserter(my_data));
   return 0;
}

Using regular memcpy. This is probably best used for basic data types (i.e. int) but not for more complex arrays of structs or classes.

vector<int> x(size);
memcpy(&x[0], source, size*sizeof(int));

How to make clang compile to llvm IR

Did you read clang documentation ? You're probably looking for -emit-llvm.

How can I remove a pytz timezone from a datetime object?

To remove a timezone (tzinfo) from a datetime object:

# dt_tz is a datetime.datetime object
dt = dt_tz.replace(tzinfo=None)

If you are using a library like arrow, then you can remove timezone by simply converting an arrow object to to a datetime object, then doing the same thing as the example above.

# <Arrow [2014-10-09T10:56:09.347444-07:00]>
arrowObj = arrow.get('2014-10-09T10:56:09.347444-07:00')

# datetime.datetime(2014, 10, 9, 10, 56, 9, 347444, tzinfo=tzoffset(None, -25200))
tmpDatetime = arrowObj.datetime

# datetime.datetime(2014, 10, 9, 10, 56, 9, 347444)
tmpDatetime = tmpDatetime.replace(tzinfo=None)

Why would you do this? One example is that mysql does not support timezones with its DATETIME type. So using ORM's like sqlalchemy will simply remove the timezone when you give it a datetime.datetime object to insert into the database. The solution is to convert your datetime.datetime object to UTC (so everything in your database is UTC since it can't specify timezone) then either insert it into the database (where the timezone is removed anyway) or remove it yourself. Also note that you cannot compare datetime.datetime objects where one is timezone aware and another is timezone naive.

##############################################################################
# MySQL example! where MySQL doesn't support timezones with its DATETIME type!
##############################################################################

arrowObj = arrow.get('2014-10-09T10:56:09.347444-07:00')

arrowDt = arrowObj.to("utc").datetime

# inserts datetime.datetime(2014, 10, 9, 17, 56, 9, 347444, tzinfo=tzutc())
insertIntoMysqlDatabase(arrowDt)

# returns datetime.datetime(2014, 10, 9, 17, 56, 9, 347444)
dbDatetimeNoTz = getFromMysqlDatabase()

# cannot compare timzeone aware and timezone naive
dbDatetimeNoTz == arrowDt # False, or TypeError on python versions before 3.3

# compare datetimes that are both aware or both naive work however
dbDatetimeNoTz == arrowDt.replace(tzinfo=None) # True

Share application "link" in Android

To automatically fill in the application name and application id you could use this:

How to get the full URL of a Drupal page?

You can also do it this way:

$current_url = 'http://' .$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] . $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];

It's a bit faster.

Entity Framework: table without primary key

In EF Core 5.0, you will be able to define it at entity level also.

[Keyless]
public class Address
{
    public string Street { get; set; }
    public string City { get; set; }
    public int Zip { get; set; }
}

Datatable select with multiple conditions

Try this,
I think ,this is one of the simple solutions.

int rowIndex = table.Rows.IndexOf(table.Select("A = 'foo' AND B = 'bar' AND C = 'baz'")[0]);
string strD= Convert.ToString(table.Rows[rowIndex]["D"]);

Make sure,combination of values for column A, B and C is unique in the datatable.

How to enable named/bind/DNS full logging?

Run command rndc querylog on or add querylog yes; to options{}; section in named.conf to activate that channel.

Also make sure you’re checking correct directory if your bind is chrooted.

What is the use of the @Temporal annotation in Hibernate?

@Temporal is a JPA annotation which can be used to store in the database table on of the following column items:

  1. DATE (java.sql.Date)
  2. TIME (java.sql.Time)
  3. TIMESTAMP (java.sql.Timestamp)

Generally when we declare a Date field in the class and try to store it.
It will store as TIMESTAMP in the database.

@Temporal
private Date joinedDate;

Above code will store value looks like 08-07-17 04:33:35.870000000 PM

If we want to store only the DATE in the database,
We can use/define TemporalType.

@Temporal(TemporalType.DATE)
private Date joinedDate;

This time, it would store 08-07-17 in database

There are some other attributes as well as @Temporal which can be used based on the requirement.

Failed: Error in connection establishment: net::ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED

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

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

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

What online brokers offer APIs?

Looks like E*Trade has an API now.

For access to historical data, I've found EODData to have reasonable prices for their data dumps. For side projects, I can't afford (rather don't want to afford) a huge subscription fee just for some data to tinker with.

Adding an external directory to Tomcat classpath

I might be a bit late for the party but I follow below steps to make it fully configurable using IntelliJ's way of in-IDE app test. I believe the best way to go with is to Combine below with @BelusC's answer.

1. run the application using IDE's tomcat run config. 
2. ps -ef | grep -i tomcat //this will give you a good idea about what the ide doing actually.
3. Copy the -Dcatalina.base parameter value from the command. this is your application specific catalina base. In this folder you can play with catalina.properties, application root path etc.. basically everything you have been doing is doable here too. 

How to serialize an Object into a list of URL query parameters?

this method uses recursion to descend into object hierarchy and generate rails style params which rails interprets as embedded hashes. objToParams generates a query string with an extra ampersand on the end, and objToQuery removes the final amperseand.

 function objToQuery(obj){
  let str = objToParams(obj,'');
  return str.slice(0, str.length);
}
function   objToParams(obj, subobj){
  let str = "";

   for (let key in obj) {
     if(typeof(obj[key]) === 'object') {
       if(subobj){
         str += objToParams(obj[key], `${subobj}[${key}]`);
       } else {
         str += objToParams(obj[key], `[${key}]`);
       }

     } else {
       if(subobj){
         str += `${key}${subobj}=${obj[key]}&`;
       }else{
         str += `${key}=${obj[key]}&`;
       }
     }
   }
   return str;
 }

Open Popup window using javascript

Change the window name in your two different calls:

function popitup(url,windowName) {
       newwindow=window.open(url,windowName,'height=200,width=150');
       if (window.focus) {newwindow.focus()}
       return false;
     }

windowName must be unique when you open a new window with same url otherwise the same window will be refreshed.

Error: "Adb connection Error:An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host"

In my case, resetting ADB didn't make a difference. I also needed to delete my existing virtual devices, which were pretty old, and create new ones.

Writelines writes lines without newline, Just fills the file

As others have mentioned, and counter to what the method name would imply, writelines does not add line separators. This is a textbook case for a generator. Here is a contrived example:

def item_generator(things):
    for item in things:
        yield item
        yield '\n'

def write_things_to_file(things):
    with open('path_to_file.txt', 'wb') as f:
        f.writelines(item_generator(things))

Benefits: adds newlines explicitly without modifying the input or output values or doing any messy string concatenation. And, critically, does not create any new data structures in memory. IO (writing to a file) is when that kind of thing tends to actually matter. Hope this helps someone!

How to convert 'binary string' to normal string in Python3?

Decode it.

>>> b'a string'.decode('ascii')
'a string'

To get bytes from string, encode it.

>>> 'a string'.encode('ascii')
b'a string'

Select NOT IN multiple columns

You should probably use NOT EXISTS for multiple columns.

Bad Request - Invalid Hostname IIS7

I saw the same error after using msdeploy to copy the application to a new server. It turned out that the bindings were still using the IP address from the previous server. So, double check IP address in the IIS bindings. (Seems obvious after the fact, but did not immediately occur to me to check it).

MySQL vs MongoDB 1000 reads

Do you have concurrency, i.e simultaneous users ? If you just run 1000 times the query straight, with just one thread, there will be almost no difference. Too easy for these engines :)

BUT I strongly suggest that you build a true load testing session, which means using an injector such as JMeter with 10, 20 or 50 users AT THE SAME TIME so you can really see a difference (try to embed this code inside a web page JMeter could query).

I just did it today on a single server (and a simple collection / table) and the results are quite interesting and surprising (MongoDb was really faster on writes & reads, compared to MyISAM engine and InnoDb engine).

This really should be part of your test : concurrency & MySQL engine. Then, data/schema design & application needs are of course huge requirements, beyond response times. Let me know when you get results, I'm also in need of inputs about this!

Confused about stdin, stdout and stderr?

stderr will not do IO Cache buffering so if our application need to print critical message info (some errors ,exceptions) to console or to file use it where as use stdout to print general log info as it use IO Cache buffering there is a chance that before writing our messages to file application may close ,leaving debugging complex

How many socket connections possible?

I achieved 1600k concurrent idle socket connections, and at the same time 57k req/s on a Linux desktop (16G RAM, I7 2600 CPU). It's a single thread http server written in C with epoll. Source code is on github, a blog here.

Edit:

I did 600k concurrent HTTP connections (client & server) on both the same computer, with JAVA/Clojure . detail info post, HN discussion: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5127251

The cost of a connection(with epoll):

  • application need some RAM per connection
  • TCP buffer 2 * 4k ~ 10k, or more
  • epoll need some memory for a file descriptor, from epoll(7)

Each registered file descriptor costs roughly 90 bytes on a 32-bit kernel, and roughly 160 bytes on a 64-bit kernel.

How to parse JSON and access results

If your $result variable is a string json like, you must use json_decode function to parse it as an object or array:

$result = '{"Cancelled":false,"MessageID":"402f481b-c420-481f-b129-7b2d8ce7cf0a","Queued":false,"SMSError":2,"SMSIncomingMessages":null,"Sent":false,"SentDateTime":"\/Date(-62135578800000-0500)\/"}';
$json = json_decode($result, true);
print_r($json);

OUTPUT

Array
(
    [Cancelled] => 
    [MessageID] => 402f481b-c420-481f-b129-7b2d8ce7cf0a
    [Queued] => 
    [SMSError] => 2
    [SMSIncomingMessages] => 
    [Sent] => 
    [SentDateTime] => /Date(-62135578800000-0500)/
)

Now you can work with $json variable as an array:

echo $json['MessageID'];
echo $json['SMSError'];
// other stuff

LINQ where clause with lambda expression having OR clauses and null values returning incomplete results

You are checking Parent properties for null in your delegate. The same should work with lambda expressions too.

        .FindAll()
        .Where(x => 
            (x.ID == packageId) || 
            (x.Parent != null &&
                (x.Parent.ID == packageId || 
                (x.Parent.Parent != null && x.Parent.Parent.ID == packageId)))

How to round the minute of a datetime object

yes, if your data belongs to a DateTime column in a pandas series, you can round it up using the built-in pandas.Series.dt.round function. See documentation here on pandas.Series.dt.round. In your case of rounding to 10min it will be Series.dt.round('10min') or Series.dt.round('600s') like so:

pandas.Series(tm).dt.round('10min')

Edit to add Example code:

import datetime
import pandas

tm = datetime.datetime(2010, 6, 10, 3, 56, 23)
tm_rounded = pandas.Series(tm).dt.round('10min')
print(tm_rounded)

>>> 0   2010-06-10 04:00:00
dtype: datetime64[ns]

remote: repository not found fatal: not found

I have solved the same issue by giving the read permision from github account.

  1. Go to github account go the user write permission.
  2. When we clone the code we need read permission.
  3. When we need to push the code we use write permission so you need to give write permission.

Getting parts of a URL (Regex)

Minimum and maximum value of z-index?

Z-Index only works for elements that have position: relative; or position: absolute; applied to them. If that's not the problem we'll need to see an example page to be more helpful.

EDIT: The good doctor has already put the fullest explanation but the quick version is that the minimum is 0 because it can't be a negative number and the maximum - well, you'll never really need to go above 10 for most designs.

What is the difference between char s[] and char *s?

char *str = "Hello";

The above sets str to point to the literal value "Hello" which is hard-coded in the program's binary image, which is flagged as read-only in memory, means any change in this String literal is illegal and that would throw segmentation faults.

char str[] = "Hello";

copies the string to newly allocated memory on the stack. Thus making any change in it is allowed and legal.

means str[0] = 'M';

will change the str to "Mello".

For more details, please go through the similar question:

Why do I get a segmentation fault when writing to a string initialized with "char *s" but not "char s[]"?

How do you beta test an iphone app?

(As the official guide is still missing in this thread..)

TestFlight, acquired by Apple and now (iOS8+) available for beta testing makes it easy to hand your app to beta testers without the need to collect device UUIDs beforehand (you only need email addresses of your testers). An extensive guide explaining all necessary steps may be found in the iTunes Connect Developer Guide.

How to parse month full form string using DateFormat in Java?

Just to top this up to the new Java 8 API:

DateTimeFormatter formatter = new DateTimeFormatterBuilder().appendPattern("MMMM dd, yyyy").toFormatter();
TemporalAccessor ta = formatter.parse("June 27, 2007");
Instant instant = LocalDate.from(ta).atStartOfDay().atZone(ZoneId.systemDefault()).toInstant();
Date d = Date.from(instant);
assertThat(d.getYear(), is(107));
assertThat(d.getMonth(), is(5));

A bit more verbose but you also see that the methods of Date used are deprecated ;-) Time to move on.

How to write a stored procedure using phpmyadmin and how to use it through php?

How do I convert date/time from 24-hour format to 12-hour AM/PM?

I think you can use date() function to achive this

$date = '19:24:15 06/13/2013'; 
echo date('h:i:s a m/d/Y', strtotime($date));

This will output

07:24:15 pm 06/13/2013

Live Sample

h is used for 12 digit time
i stands for minutes
s seconds
a will return am or pm (use in uppercase for AM PM)
m is used for months with digits
d is used for days in digit
Y uppercase is used for 4 digit year (use it lowercase for two digit)

Updated

This is with DateTime

$date = new DateTime('19:24:15 06/13/2013');
echo $date->format('h:i:s a m/d/Y') ;

Live Sample

How to load CSS Asynchronously

2020 Update


The simple answer (full browser support):

<link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" media="print" onload="this.media='all'">

The documented answer (with optional preloading and script-disabled fallback):

 <!-- Optional, if we want the stylesheet to get preloaded. Note that this line causes stylesheet to get downloaded, but not applied to the page. Use strategically — while preloading will push this resource up the priority list, it may cause more important resources to be pushed down the priority list. This may not be the desired effect for non-critical CSS, depending on other resources your app needs. -->
 <link rel="preload" href="style.css" as="style">

 <!-- Media type (print) doesn't match the current environment, so browser decides it's not that important and loads the stylesheet asynchronously (without delaying page rendering). On load, we change media type so that the stylesheet gets applied to screens. -->
 <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" media="print" onload="this.media='all'">

 <!-- Fallback that only gets inserted when JavaScript is disabled, in which case we can't load CSS asynchronously. -->
 <noscript><link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css"></noscript>

Preloading and async combined:

If you need preloaded and async CSS, this solution simply combines two lines from the documented answer above, making it slightly cleaner. But this won't work in Firefox until they support the preload keyword. And again, as detailed in the documented answer above, preloading may not actually be beneficial.

<link href="style.css" rel="preload" as="style" onload="this.rel='stylesheet'">
<noscript><link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css"></noscript>

Additional considerations:

Note that, in general, if you're going to load CSS asynchronously, it's generally recommended that you inline critical CSS, since CSS is a render-blocking resource for a reason.

Credit to filament group for their many async CSS solutions.

Java Serializable Object to Byte Array

I would like to transmit it as byte[] over sockets to another machine

// When you connect
ObjectOutputStream oos = new ObjectOutputStream(socket.getOutputStream());
// When you want to send it
oos.writeObject(appMessage);

where it is rebuilt from the bytes received.

// When you connect
ObjectInputStream ois = new ObjectInputStream(socket.getInputStream());
// When you want to receive it
AppMessage appMessage = (AppMessage)ois.readObject();

Java array assignment (multiple values)

Java does not provide a construct that will assign of multiple values to an existing array's elements. The initializer syntaxes can ONLY be used when creation a new array object. This can be at the point of declaration, or later on. But either way, the initializer is initializing a new array object, not updating an existing one.

Catch Ctrl-C in C

@Peter Varo updated Dirk's answer, but Dirk rejected the change. Here's the new answer by Peter:

Although the above snippet is a correct example, one should use the more modern types and guarantees provided by the later standards if possible. Therefore, here is a safer and modern alternative for those who are seeking for the and conforming implementation:

#include <signal.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>

static volatile sig_atomic_t keep_running = 1;

static void sig_handler(int _)
{
    (void)_;
    keep_running = 0;
}

int main(void)
{
    signal(SIGINT, sig_handler);

    while (keep_running)
        puts("Still running...");

    puts("Stopped by signal `SIGINT'");
    return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}

C11 Standard: 7.14§2 The header <signal.h> declare a type ... sig_atomic_t which is the (possibly volatile-qualified) integer type of an object that can be accessed as an atomic entity, even in the presence of asynchronous interrupts.

Furthermore:

C11 Standard: 7.14.1.1§5 If the signal occurs other than as the result of calling the abort or raise function, the behavior is undefined if the signal handler refers to any object with static or thread storage duration that is not a lock-free atomic object other than by assigning a value to an object declared as volatile sig_atomic_t...

Various ways to remove local Git changes

It all depends on exactly what you are trying to undo/revert. Start out by reading the post in Ube's link. But to attempt an answer:

Hard reset

git reset --hard [HEAD]

completely remove all staged and unstaged changes to tracked files.

I find myself often using hard resetting, when I'm like "just undo everything like if I had done a complete re-clone from the remote". In your case, where you just want your repo pristine, this would work.

Clean

git clean [-f]

Remove files that are not tracked.

For removing temporary files, but keep staged and unstaged changes to already tracked files. Most times, I would probably end up making an ignore-rule instead of repeatedly cleaning - e.g. for the bin/obj folders in a C# project, which you would usually want to exclude from your repo to save space, or something like that.

The -f (force) option will also remove files, that are not tracked and are also being ignored by git though ignore-rule. In the case above, with an ignore-rule to never track the bin/obj folders, even though these folders are being ignored by git, using the force-option will remove them from your file system. I've sporadically seen a use for this, e.g. when scripting deployment, and you want to clean your code before deploying, zipping or whatever.

Git clean will not touch files, that are already being tracked.

Checkout "dot"

git checkout .

I had actually never seen this notation before reading your post. I'm having a hard time finding documentation for this (maybe someone can help), but from playing around a bit, it looks like it means:

"undo all changes in my working tree".

I.e. undo unstaged changes in tracked files. It apparently doesn't touch staged changes and leaves untracked files alone.

Stashing

Some answers mention stashing. As the wording implies, you would probably use stashing when you are in the middle of something (not ready for a commit), and you have to temporarily switch branches or somehow work on another state of your code, later to return to your "messy desk". I don't see this applies to your question, but it's definitely handy.

To sum up

Generally, if you are confident you have committed and maybe pushed to a remote important changes, if you are just playing around or the like, using git reset --hard HEAD followed by git clean -f will definitively cleanse your code to the state, it would be in, had it just been cloned and checked out from a branch. It's really important to emphasize, that the resetting will also remove staged, but uncommitted changes. It will wipe everything that has not been committed (except untracked files, in which case, use clean).

All the other commands are there to facilitate more complex scenarios, where a granularity of "undoing stuff" is needed :)

I feel, your question #1 is covered, but lastly, to conclude on #2: the reason you never found the need to use git reset --hard was that you had never staged anything. Had you staged a change, neither git checkout . nor git clean -f would have reverted that.

Hope this covers.

Truncate a string straight JavaScript

There does not seem to be a straight-forward way provided by Google or Yahoo finance portals to download the full list of tickers. One possible 'brute force' way to get it is to query their APIs for every possible combinations of letters and save only those that return valid results. As silly as it may seem there are people who actually do it (ie. check this: http://investexcel.net/all-yahoo-finance-stock-tickers/).

You can download lists of symbols from exchanges directly or 3rd party websites as suggested by @Eugene S and @Capn Sparrow, however if you intend to use it to fetch data from Google or Yahoo, you have to sometimes use prefixes or suffixes to make sure that you're getting the correct data. This is because some symbols may repeat between exchanges, so Google and Yahoo prepend or append exchange codes to the tickers in order to distinguish between them. Here's an example:

Company:  Vodafone
------------------
LSE symbol:    VOD
 in Google:    LON:VOD
 in Yahoo:     VOD.L
NASDAQ symbol: VOD
 in Google:    NASDAQ:VOD
 in Yahoo:     VOD

How do I send an HTML Form in an Email .. not just MAILTO

I don't know that what you want to do is possible. From my understanding, sending an email from a web form requires a server side language to communicate with a mail server and send messages.

trim left characters in sql server?

For 'Hello' at the start of the string:

This will work for 'Hello' anywhere in the string:

SELECT REPLACE('Hello World', 'Hello ', '')

Checking if a variable is defined?

As many other examples show you don't actually need a boolean from a method to make logical choices in ruby. It would be a poor form to coerce everything to a boolean unless you actually need a boolean.

But if you absolutely need a boolean. Use !! (bang bang) or "falsy falsy reveals the truth".

› irb
>> a = nil
=> nil
>> defined?(a)
=> "local-variable"
>> defined?(b)
=> nil
>> !!defined?(a)
=> true
>> !!defined?(b)
=> false

Why it doesn't usually pay to coerce:

>> (!!defined?(a) ? "var is defined".colorize(:green) : "var is not defined".colorize(:red)) == (defined?(a) ? "var is defined".colorize(:green) : "var is not defined".colorize(:red))
=> true

Here's an example where it matters because it relies on the implicit coercion of the boolean value to its string representation.

>> puts "var is defined? #{!!defined?(a)} vs #{defined?(a)}"
var is defined? true vs local-variable
=> nil

First Heroku deploy failed `error code=H10`

I faced this same problem and none of the answers above helped me. What i did was run:

node --version

and in the package.json add the engines section with your node version:

{
  "name": "myapp",
  "description": "a really cool app",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "engines": {
    "node": "6.11.1"
  }
}

Permission denied on accessing host directory in Docker

Typically, permissions issues with a host volume mount are because the uid/gid inside the container does not have access to the file according to the uid/gid permissions of the file on the host. However, this specific case is different.

The dot at the end of the permission string, drwxr-xr-x., indicates SELinux is configured. When using a host mount with SELinux, you need to pass an extra option to the end of the volume definition:

  • The z option indicates that the bind mount content is shared among multiple containers.
  • The Z option indicates that the bind mount content is private and unshared.

Your volume mount command would then look like:

sudo docker run -i -v /data1/Downloads:/Downloads:z ubuntu bash

See more about host mounts with SELinux at: https://docs.docker.com/storage/bind-mounts/#configure-the-selinux-label


For others that see this issue with containers running as a different user, you need to ensure the uid/gid of the user inside the container has permissions to the file on the host. On production servers, this is often done by controlling the uid/gid in the image build process to match a uid/gid on the host that has access to the files (or even better, do not use host mounts in production).

A named volume is often preferred to host mounts because it will initialize the volume directory from the image directory, including any file ownership and permissions. This happens when the volume is empty and the container is created with the named volume.

MacOS users now have OSXFS which handles uid/gid's automatically between the Mac host and containers. One place it doesn't help with are files from inside the embedded VM that get mounted into the container, like /var/lib/docker.sock.

For development environments where the host uid/gid may change per developer, my preferred solution is to start the container with an entrypoint running as root, fix the uid/gid of the user inside the container to match the host volume uid/gid, and then use gosu to drop from root to the container user to run the application inside the container. The important script for this is fix-perms in my base image scripts, which can be found at: https://github.com/sudo-bmitch/docker-base

The important bit from the fix-perms script is:

# update the uid
if [ -n "$opt_u" ]; then
  OLD_UID=$(getent passwd "${opt_u}" | cut -f3 -d:)
  NEW_UID=$(stat -c "%u" "$1")
  if [ "$OLD_UID" != "$NEW_UID" ]; then
    echo "Changing UID of $opt_u from $OLD_UID to $NEW_UID"
    usermod -u "$NEW_UID" -o "$opt_u"
    if [ -n "$opt_r" ]; then
      find / -xdev -user "$OLD_UID" -exec chown -h "$opt_u" {} \;
    fi
  fi
fi

That gets the uid of the user inside the container, and the uid of the file, and if they do not match, calls usermod to adjust the uid. Lastly it does a recursive find to fix any files which have not changed uid's. I like this better than running a container with a -u $(id -u):$(id -g) flag because the above entrypoint code doesn't require each developer to run a script to start the container, and any files outside of the volume that are owned by the user will have their permissions corrected.


You can also have docker initialize a host directory from an image by using a named volume that performs a bind mount. This directory must exist in advance, and you need to provide an absolute path to the host directory, unlike host volumes in a compose file which can be relative paths. The directory must also be empty for docker to initialize it. Three different options for defining a named volume to a bind mount look like:

  # create the volume in advance
  $ docker volume create --driver local \
      --opt type=none \
      --opt device=/home/user/test \
      --opt o=bind \
      test_vol

  # create on the fly with --mount
  $ docker run -it --rm \
    --mount type=volume,dst=/container/path,volume-driver=local,volume-opt=type=none,volume-opt=o=bind,volume-opt=device=/home/user/test \
    foo

  # inside a docker-compose file
  ...
  volumes:
    bind-test:
      driver: local
      driver_opts:
        type: none
        o: bind
        device: /home/user/test
  ...

Lastly, if you try using user namespaces, you'll find that host volumes have permission issues because uid/gid's of the containers are shifted. In that scenario, it's probably easiest to avoid host volumes and only use named volumes.

Location of ini/config files in linux/unix?

For user configuration I've noticed a tendency towards moving away from individual ~/.myprogramrc to a structure below ~/.config. For example, Qt 4 uses ~/.config/<vendor>/<programname> with the default settings of QSettings. The major desktop environments KDE and Gnome use a file structure below a specific folder too (not sure if KDE 4 uses ~/.config, XFCE does use ~/.config).

Cannot find control with name: formControlName in angular reactive form

CSS fill remaining width

This can be achieved by wrapping the image and search bar in their own container and floating the image to the left with a specific width.

This takes the image out of the "flow" which means that any items rendered in normal flow will not adjust their positioning to take account of this.

To make the "in flow" searchBar appear correctly positioned to the right of the image you give it a left padding equal to the width of the image plus a gutter.

The effect is to make the image a fixed width while the rest of the container block is fluidly filled up by the search bar.

<div class="container">
  <img src="img/logo.png"/>
  <div id="searchBar">
    <input type="text" />
  </div>
</div>

and the css

.container {
  width: 100%;
}

.container img {
  width: 50px;
  float: left;
}

.searchBar {
  padding-left: 60px;
}

Disable Required validation attribute under certain circumstances

Yes it is possible to disable Required Attribute. Create your own custom class attribute (sample code called ChangeableRequired) to extent from RequiredAtribute and add a Disabled Property and override the IsValid method to check if it is disbaled. Use reflection to set the disabled poperty, like so:

Custom Attribute:

namespace System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations
{
    public class ChangeableRequired : RequiredAttribute
    {
       public bool Disabled { get; set; }

       public override bool IsValid(object value)
       {
          if (Disabled)
          {
            return true;
          }

          return base.IsValid(value);
       }
    }
}

Update you property to use your new custom Attribute:

 class Forex
 {
 ....
    [ChangeableRequired]
    public decimal? ExchangeRate {get;set;}
 ....
 }

where you need to disable the property use reflection to set it:

Forex forex = new Forex();
// Get Property Descriptor from instance with the Property name
PropertyDescriptor descriptor = TypeDescriptor.GetProperties(forex.GetType())["ExchangeRate"];
//Search for Attribute
ChangeableRequired attrib =  (ChangeableRequired)descriptor.Attributes[typeof(ChangeableRequired)];

// Set Attribute to true to Disable
attrib.Disabled = true;

This feels nice and clean?

NB: The validation above will be disabled while your object instance is alive\active...

Python find elements in one list that are not in the other

I used two methods and I found one method useful over other. Here is my answer:

My input data:

crkmod_mpp = ['M13','M18','M19','M24']
testmod_mpp = ['M13','M14','M15','M16','M17','M18','M19','M20','M21','M22','M23','M24']

Method1: np.setdiff1d I like this approach over other because it preserves the position

test= list(np.setdiff1d(testmod_mpp,crkmod_mpp))
print(test)
['M15', 'M16', 'M22', 'M23', 'M20', 'M14', 'M17', 'M21']

Method2: Though it gives same answer as in Method1 but disturbs the order

test = list(set(testmod_mpp).difference(set(crkmod_mpp)))
print(test)
['POA23', 'POA15', 'POA17', 'POA16', 'POA22', 'POA18', 'POA24', 'POA21']

Method1 np.setdiff1d meets my requirements perfectly. This answer for information.

How to check if a variable is set in Bash?

The answers above do not work when Bash option set -u is enabled. Also, they are not dynamic, e.g., how to test is variable with name "dummy" is defined? Try this:

is_var_defined()
{
    if [ $# -ne 1 ]
    then
        echo "Expected exactly one argument: variable name as string, e.g., 'my_var'"
        exit 1
    fi
    # Tricky.  Since Bash option 'set -u' may be enabled, we cannot directly test if a variable
    # is defined with this construct: [ ! -z "$var" ].  Instead, we must use default value
    # substitution with this construct: [ ! -z "${var:-}" ].  Normally, a default value follows the
    # operator ':-', but here we leave it blank for empty (null) string.  Finally, we need to
    # substitute the text from $1 as 'var'.  This is not allowed directly in Bash with this
    # construct: [ ! -z "${$1:-}" ].  We need to use indirection with eval operator.
    # Example: $1="var"
    # Expansion for eval operator: "[ ! -z \${$1:-} ]" -> "[ ! -z \${var:-} ]"
    # Code  execute: [ ! -z ${var:-} ]
    eval "[ ! -z \${$1:-} ]"
    return $?  # Pedantic.
}

How to set the part of the text view is clickable

It really helpful for the clickable part for some portion of the text.

The dot is a special character in the regular expression. If you want to spanable the dot need to escape dot as \\. instead of just passing "." to the spanable text method. Alternatively, you can also use the regular expression [.] to spanable the String by a dot in Java.

Correct use of transactions in SQL Server

Easy approach:

CREATE TABLE T
(
    C [nvarchar](100) NOT NULL UNIQUE,
);

SET XACT_ABORT ON -- Turns on rollback if T-SQL statement raises a run-time error.
SELECT * FROM T; -- Check before.
BEGIN TRAN
    INSERT INTO T VALUES ('A');
    INSERT INTO T VALUES ('B');
    INSERT INTO T VALUES ('B');
    INSERT INTO T VALUES ('C');
COMMIT TRAN
SELECT * FROM T; -- Check after.
DELETE T;

Squaring all elements in a list

You could use a list comprehension:

def square(list):
    return [i ** 2 for i in list]

Or you could map it:

def square(list):
    return map(lambda x: x ** 2, list)

Or you could use a generator. It won't return a list, but you can still iterate through it, and since you don't have to allocate an entire new list, it is possibly more space-efficient than the other options:

def square(list):
    for i in list:
        yield i ** 2

Or you can do the boring old for-loop, though this is not as idiomatic as some Python programmers would prefer:

def square(list):
    ret = []
    for i in list:
        ret.append(i ** 2)
    return ret

How to read specific lines from a file (by line number)?

Is it safe to store a JWT in localStorage with ReactJS?

It is safe to store your token in localStorage as long as you encrypt it. Below is a compressed code snippet showing one of many ways you can do it.

    import SimpleCrypto from 'simple-crypto-js';

    const saveToken = (token = '') => {
          const encryptInit = new SimpleCrypto('PRIVATE_KEY_STORED_IN_ENV_FILE');
          const encryptedToken = encryptInit.encrypt(token);

          localStorage.setItem('token', encryptedToken);
     }

Then, before using your token decrypt it using PRIVATE_KEY_STORED_IN_ENV_FILE

How to pass an object into a state using UI-router?

There are two parts of this problem

1) using a parameter that would not alter an url (using params property):

$stateProvider
    .state('login', {
        params: [
            'toStateName',
            'toParamsJson'
        ],
        templateUrl: 'partials/login/Login.html'
    })

2) passing an object as parameter: Well, there is no direct way how to do it now, as every parameter is converted to string (EDIT: since 0.2.13, this is no longer true - you can use objects directly), but you can workaround it by creating the string on your own

toParamsJson = JSON.stringify(toStateParams);

and in target controller deserialize the object again

originalParams = JSON.parse($stateParams.toParamsJson);

Log record changes in SQL server in an audit table

Take a look at this article on Simple-talk.com by Pop Rivett. It walks you through creating a generic trigger that will log the OLDVALUE and the NEWVALUE for all updated columns. The code is very generic and you can apply it to any table you want to audit, also for any CRUD operation i.e. INSERT, UPDATE and DELETE. The only requirement is that your table to be audited should have a PRIMARY KEY (which most well designed tables should have anyway).

Here's the code relevant for your GUESTS Table.

  1. Create AUDIT Table.
    IF NOT EXISTS
          (SELECT * FROM sysobjects WHERE id = OBJECT_ID(N'[dbo].[Audit]') 
                   AND OBJECTPROPERTY(id, N'IsUserTable') = 1)
           CREATE TABLE Audit 
                   (Type CHAR(1), 
                   TableName VARCHAR(128), 
                   PK VARCHAR(1000), 
                   FieldName VARCHAR(128), 
                   OldValue VARCHAR(1000), 
                   NewValue VARCHAR(1000), 
                   UpdateDate datetime, 
                   UserName VARCHAR(128))
    GO
  1. CREATE an UPDATE Trigger on the GUESTS Table as follows.

How to bind Close command to a button

In the beginning I was also having a bit of trouble figuring out how this works so I wanted to post a better explanation of what is actually going on.

According to my research the best way to handle things like this is using the Command Bindings. What happens is a "Message" is broadcast to everything in the program. So what you have to do is use the CommandBinding. What this essentially does is say "When you hear this Message do this".

So in the Question the User is trying to Close the Window. The first thing we need to do is setup our Functions that will be called when the SystemCommand.CloseWindowCommand is broadcast. Optionally you can assign a Function that determines if the Command should be executed. An example would be closing a Form and checking if the User has saved.

MainWindow.xaml.cs (Or other Code-Behind)

void CloseApp( object target, ExecutedRoutedEventArgs e ) {
    /*** Code to check for State before Closing ***/
    this.Close();
}

void CloseAppCanExecute( object sender, CanExecuteRoutedEventArgs e ) {
    /*** Logic to Determine if it is safe to Close the Window ***/
    e.CanExecute = true;
}

Now we need to setup the "Connection" between the SystemCommands.CloseWindowCommand and the CloseApp and CloseAppCanExecute

MainWindow.xaml (Or anything that implements CommandBindings)

<Window.CommandBindings>
    <CommandBinding Command="SystemCommands.CloseWindowCommand"
                    Executed="CloseApp"
                    CanExecute="CloseAppCanExecute"/>
</Window.CommandBindings>

You can omit the CanExecute if you know that the Command should be able to always be executed Save might be a good example depending on the Application. Here is a Example:

<Window.CommandBindings>
    <CommandBinding Command="SystemCommands.CloseWindowCommand"
                    Executed="CloseApp"/>
</Window.CommandBindings>

Finally you need to tell the UIElement to send out the CloseWindowCommand.

<Button Command="SystemCommands.CloseWindowCommand">

Its actually a very simple thing to do, just setup the link between the Command and the actual Function to Execute then tell the Control to send out the Command to the rest of your program saying "Ok everyone run your Functions for the Command CloseWindowCommand".

This is actually a very nice way of handing this because, you can reuse the Executed Function all over without having a wrapper like you would with say WinForms (using a ClickEvent and calling a function within the Event Function) like:

protected override void OnClick(EventArgs e){
    /*** Function to Execute ***/
}

In WPF you attach the Function to a Command and tell the UIElement to execute the Function attached to the Command instead.

I hope this clears things up...

Fix Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' for phpMyAdmin

I use this URL to enter phpMyAdmin http://localhost:2145/phpmyadmin but get the following error:
"phpMyAdmin tried to connect to the MySQL server, and the server rejected the connection. You should check the host, username and password in your configuration and make sure that they correspond to the information given by the administrator of the MySQL server"
my config.inc.php file is

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] = 'config';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['user'] = 'root';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['password'] = '';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['host'] = 'localhost:2145';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['connect_type'] = 'cookie';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['compress'] = false;
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowNoPassword'] = true;
/* User used to manipulate with storage */
// $cfg['Servers'][$i]['controlhost'] = '';
// $cfg['Servers'][$i]['controlport'] = '';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['controluser'] = '';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['controlpass'] = '';

this change resolve the mistake for me

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['auth_type'] = 'cookie';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['user'] = 'root';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['password'] = '';
/* Server parameters */
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['host'] = 'localhost';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['connect_type'] = 'tcp';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['compress'] = false;
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowNoPassword'] = true;

and then

sudo service mysql stop
/opt/lampp/lampp start

and problem solved

How to set the Android progressbar's height?

This is the progress bar I have used.

<ProgressBar
     android:padding="@dimen/dimen_5"
     android:layout_below="@+id/txt_chklist_progress"
     android:id="@+id/pb_media_progress"
     style="@style/MyProgressBar"
     android:layout_width="match_parent"
     android:layout_height="wrap_content"
     android:layout_gravity="center"
     android:progress="70"
     android:scaleY="5"
     android:max="100"
     android:progressBackgroundTint="@color/white"
     android:progressTint="@color/green_above_avg" />

And this is my style tag

 <style name="MyProgressBar" parent="@style/Widget.AppCompat.ProgressBar.Horizontal">
    <item name="android:progressBackgroundTint">@color/white</item>
    <item name="android:progressTint">@color/green_above_avg</item>
</style>

XPath - Selecting elements that equal a value

The XPath spec. defines the string value of an element as the concatenation (in document order) of all of its text-node descendents.

This explains the "strange results".

"Better" results can be obtained using the expressions below:

//*[text() = 'qwerty']

The above selects every element in the document that has at least one text-node child with value 'qwerty'.

//*[text() = 'qwerty' and not(text()[2])]

The above selects every element in the document that has only one text-node child and its value is: 'qwerty'.

Add IIS 7 AppPool Identities as SQL Server Logons

As a side note processes that uses virtual accounts (NT Service\MyService and IIS AppPool\MyAppPool) are still running under the "NETWORK SERVICE" account as this post suggests http://www.adopenstatic.com/cs/blogs/ken/archive/2008/01/29/15759.aspx. The only difference is that these processes are members of the "NT Service\MyService" or "IIS AppPool\MyAppPool" groups (as these are actually groups and not users). This is also the reason why the processes authenticate at the network as the machine the same way NETWORK SERVICE account does.

The way to secure access is not to depend upon this accounts not having NETWORK SERVICE privileges but to grant more permissions specifically to "NT Service\MyService" or "IIS AppPool\MyAppPool" and to remove permissions for "Users" if necessary.

If anyone has more accurate or contradictional information please post.

Static nested class in Java, why?

  1. JVM knows no nested classes. Nesting is just syntactic sugar.

    Below images shows Java file:

    enter image description here

    Below images show class files representation of the java file :

    enter image description here

    Notice that 2 class files are generated, one for parent and another for nested class.

  2. Non-static nested class' objects have access to the enclosing scope. That access to the enclosing scope is maintained by holding an implicit reference of the enclosing scope object in the nested object

  3. Nested class is a way to represent the intent that the nested class type represents a component of the parent class.

    public class Message {
    
    private MessageType messageType; // component of parent class
    
    public enum MessageType {
        SENT, RECEIVE;
    }
    }
    
    
    
    class Otherclass {
    
    public boolean isSent(Message message) {
        if (message.getMessageType() == MessageType.SENT) { // accessible at other places as well
            return true;
        }
        return false;
    }
    }
    
  4. private static nested class represents Point#3 & the fact the nested type can only be the subcomponent to the parent class. It can't be used separately.

    public class Message {
    
     private Content content; // Component of message class
    
     private static class Content { // can only be a component of message class
    
      private String body;
      private int sentBy;
    
      public String getBody() {
         return body;
      }
    
      public int getSentBy() {
         return sentBy;
      }
    
    }
    }
    
    class Message2 {
      private Message.Content content; // Not possible
    }
    
  5. More details here.

How to keep the spaces at the end and/or at the beginning of a String?

Even if you use string formatting, sometimes you still need white spaces at the beginning or the end of your string. For these cases, neither escaping with \, nor xml:space attribute helps. You must use HTML entity &#160; for a whitespace.

Use &#160; for non-breakable whitespace.
Use &#032; for regular space.

Check object empty

This can be done with java reflection,This method returns false if any one attribute value is present for the object ,hope it helps some one

public boolean isEmpty()  {

    for (Field field : this.getClass().getDeclaredFields()) {
        try {
            field.setAccessible(true);
            if (field.get(this)!=null) {
                return false;
            }
        } catch (Exception e) {
          System.out.println("Exception occured in processing");
        }
    }
    return true;
}

Do I commit the package-lock.json file created by npm 5?

To the people complaining about the noise when doing git diff:

git diff -- . ':(exclude)*package-lock.json' -- . ':(exclude)*yarn.lock'

What I did was use an alias:

alias gd="git diff --ignore-all-space --ignore-space-at-eol --ignore-space-change --ignore-blank-lines -- . ':(exclude)*package-lock.json' -- . ':(exclude)*yarn.lock'"

To ignore package-lock.json in diffs for the entire repository (everyone using it), you can add this to .gitattributes:

package-lock.json binary
yarn.lock binary

This will result in diffs that show "Binary files a/package-lock.json and b/package-lock.json differ whenever the package lock file was changed. Additionally, some Git services (notably GitLab, but not GitHub) will also exclude these files (no more 10k lines changed!) from the diffs when viewing online when doing this.

Correctly ignore all files recursively under a specific folder except for a specific file type

Either I'm doing it wrongly, or the accepted answer does not work anymore with the current git.

I have actually found the proper solution and posted it under almost the same question here. For more details head there.

Solution:

# Ignore everything inside Resources/ directory
/Resources/**
# Except for subdirectories(won't be committed anyway if there is no committed file inside)
!/Resources/**/
# And except for *.foo files
!*.foo

How can I "reset" an Arduino board?

  1. First of all, connect your Arduino device.
  2. Then go to Device Manager and uninstall the driver.
  3. Now remove your Arduino device.
  4. Again connect you Arduino device to your system.
  5. Now install your driver (which you have uninstalled earlier).

It will free your port for sure.

Java: Enum parameter in method

This should do it:

private enum Alignment { LEFT, RIGHT };    
String drawCellValue (int maxCellLength, String cellValue, Alignment align){
  if (align == Alignment.LEFT)
  {
    //Process it...
  }
}

How to include Javascript file in Asp.Net page

ScriptManager control can also be used to reference javascript files. One catch is that the ScriptManager control needs to be place inside the form tag. I myself prefer ScriptManager control and generally place it just above the closing form tag.

<asp:ScriptManager ID="sm" runat="server">
    <Scripts>
        <asp:ScriptReference Path="~/Scripts/yourscript.min.js" />
    </Scripts>
</asp:ScriptManager>

Regex match everything after question mark?

\?(.*)$

If you want to match all chars after "?" you can use a group to match any char, and you'd better use the "$" sign to indicate the end of line.

How to get jQuery to wait until an effect is finished?

With jQuery 1.6 version you can use the .promise() method.

$(selector).fadeOut('slow');
$(selector).promise().done(function(){
    // will be called when all the animations on the queue finish
});

Datatable select method ORDER BY clause

You can use the below simple method of sorting:

datatable.DefaultView.Sort = "Col2 ASC,Col3 ASC,Col4 ASC";

By the above method, you will be able to sort N number of columns.

Initialise numpy array of unknown length

Build a Python list and convert that to a Numpy array. That takes amortized O(1) time per append + O(n) for the conversion to array, for a total of O(n).

    a = []
    for x in y:
        a.append(x)
    a = np.array(a)

How do I read a resource file from a Java jar file?

If you use resources extensively, you might consider using Commons VFS.

Also supports: * Local Files * FTP, SFTP * HTTP and HTTPS * Temporary Files "normal FS backed) * Zip, Jar and Tar (uncompressed, tgz or tbz2) * gzip and bzip2 * resources * ram - "ramdrive" * mime

There's also JBoss VFS - but it's not much documented.

Python: Making a beep noise

On Windows, if you want to just make the computer make a beep sound:

import winsound
frequency = 2500  # Set Frequency To 2500 Hertz
duration = 1000  # Set Duration To 1000 ms == 1 second
winsound.Beep(frequency, duration)

The winsound.Beep() can be used wherever you want the beep to occur.

Find all files with a filename beginning with a specified string?

ls | grep "^abc"  

will give you all files beginning (which is what the OP specifically required) with the substringabc.
It operates only on the current directory whereas find operates recursively into sub folders.

To use find for only files starting with your string try

find . -name 'abc'*

Get all validation errors from Angular 2 FormGroup

Or you can just use this library to get all errors, even from deep and dynamic forms.

npm i @naologic/forms

If you want to use the static function on your own forms

import {NaoFormStatic} from '@naologic/forms';
...
const errorsFlat = NaoFormStatic.getAllErrorsFlat(fg); 
console.log(errorsFlat);

If you want to use NaoFromGroup you can import and use it

import {NaoFormGroup, NaoFormControl, NaoValidators} from '@naologic/forms';
...
    this.naoFormGroup = new NaoFormGroup({
      firstName: new NaoFormControl('John'),
      lastName: new NaoFormControl('Doe'),
      ssn: new NaoFormControl('000 00 0000', NaoValidators.isSSN()),
    });

   const getFormErrors = this.naoFormGroup.getAllErrors();
   console.log(getFormErrors);
   // --> {first: {ok: false, isSSN: false, actualValue: "000 00 0000"}}

How to force maven update?

What maven does is, it downloads all your project's dependencies into your local repo (.m2 folder). Because of the internet causing issues with your local repo, you project is facing problems. I am not sure if this will surely help you or not but you can try deleting all the files within the repository folder inside the .m2 folder. Since there would be nothing in the local repo, maven would be forced to download the dependencies again, thus forcing an update. Generally, the .m2 folder is located at c:users:[username]:.m2

Set Canvas size using javascript

Try this:

var setCanvasSize = function() {
canvas.width = window.innerWidth;
canvas.height = window.innerHeight;
}

Remove Select arrow on IE

In IE9, it is possible with purely a hack as advised by @Spudley. Since you've customized height and width of the div and select, you need to change div:before css to match yours.

In case if it is IE10 then using below css3 it is possible

select::-ms-expand {
    display: none;
}

However if you're interested in jQuery plugin, try Chosen.js or you can create your own in js.

[update] Also note that the hdfs user is the super user and has all r/w privileges.

What is REST? Slightly confused

REST is not a specific web service but a design concept (architecture) for managing state information. The seminal paper on this was Roy Thomas Fielding's dissertation (2000), "Architectural Styles and the Design of Network-based Software Architectures" (available online from the University of California, Irvine).

First read Ryan Tomayko's post How I explained REST to my wife; it's a great starting point. Then read Fielding's actual dissertation. It's not that advanced, nor is it long (six chapters, 180 pages)! (I know you kids in school like it short).

EDIT: I feel it's pointless to try to explain REST. It has so many concepts like scalability, visibility (stateless) etc. that the reader needs to grasp, and the best source for understanding those are the actual dissertation. It's much more than POST/GET etc.

Assigning out/ref parameters in Moq

EDIT: In Moq 4.10, you can now pass a delegate that has an out or ref parameter directly to the Callback function:

mock
  .Setup(x=>x.Method(out d))
  .Callback(myDelegate)
  .Returns(...); 

You will have to define a delegate and instantiate it:

...
.Callback(new MyDelegate((out decimal v)=>v=12m))
...

For Moq version before 4.10:

Avner Kashtan provides an extension method in his blog which allows setting the out parameter from a callback: Moq, Callbacks and Out parameters: a particularly tricky edge case

The solution is both elegant and hacky. Elegant in that it provides a fluent syntax that feels at-home with other Moq callbacks. And hacky because it relies on calling some internal Moq APIs via reflection.

The extension method provided at the above link didn't compile for me, so I've provided an edited version below. You'll need to create a signature for each number of input parameters you have; I've provided 0 and 1, but extending it further should be simple:

public static class MoqExtensions
{
    public delegate void OutAction<TOut>(out TOut outVal);
    public delegate void OutAction<in T1,TOut>(T1 arg1, out TOut outVal);

    public static IReturnsThrows<TMock, TReturn> OutCallback<TMock, TReturn, TOut>(this ICallback<TMock, TReturn> mock, OutAction<TOut> action)
        where TMock : class
    {
        return OutCallbackInternal(mock, action);
    }

    public static IReturnsThrows<TMock, TReturn> OutCallback<TMock, TReturn, T1, TOut>(this ICallback<TMock, TReturn> mock, OutAction<T1, TOut> action)
        where TMock : class
    {
        return OutCallbackInternal(mock, action);
    }

    private static IReturnsThrows<TMock, TReturn> OutCallbackInternal<TMock, TReturn>(ICallback<TMock, TReturn> mock, object action)
        where TMock : class
    {
        mock.GetType()
            .Assembly.GetType("Moq.MethodCall")
            .InvokeMember("SetCallbackWithArguments", BindingFlags.InvokeMethod | BindingFlags.NonPublic | BindingFlags.Instance, null, mock,
                new[] { action });
        return mock as IReturnsThrows<TMock, TReturn>;
    }
}

With the above extension method, you can test an interface with out parameters such as:

public interface IParser
{
    bool TryParse(string token, out int value);
}

.. with the following Moq setup:

    [TestMethod]
    public void ParserTest()
    {
        Mock<IParser> parserMock = new Mock<IParser>();

        int outVal;
        parserMock
            .Setup(p => p.TryParse("6", out outVal))
            .OutCallback((string t, out int v) => v = 6)
            .Returns(true);

        int actualValue;
        bool ret = parserMock.Object.TryParse("6", out actualValue);

        Assert.IsTrue(ret);
        Assert.AreEqual(6, actualValue);
    }



Edit: To support void-return methods, you simply need to add new overload methods:

public static ICallbackResult OutCallback<TOut>(this ICallback mock, OutAction<TOut> action)
{
    return OutCallbackInternal(mock, action);
}

public static ICallbackResult OutCallback<T1, TOut>(this ICallback mock, OutAction<T1, TOut> action)
{
    return OutCallbackInternal(mock, action);
}

private static ICallbackResult OutCallbackInternal(ICallback mock, object action)
{
    mock.GetType().Assembly.GetType("Moq.MethodCall")
        .InvokeMember("SetCallbackWithArguments", BindingFlags.InvokeMethod | BindingFlags.NonPublic | BindingFlags.Instance, null, mock, new[] { action });
    return (ICallbackResult)mock;
}

This allows testing interfaces such as:

public interface IValidationRule
{
    void Validate(string input, out string message);
}

[TestMethod]
public void ValidatorTest()
{
    Mock<IValidationRule> validatorMock = new Mock<IValidationRule>();

    string outMessage;
    validatorMock
        .Setup(v => v.Validate("input", out outMessage))
        .OutCallback((string i, out string m) => m  = "success");

    string actualMessage;
    validatorMock.Object.Validate("input", out actualMessage);

    Assert.AreEqual("success", actualMessage);
}

ORA-00942: table or view does not exist (works when a separate sql, but does not work inside a oracle function)

Either u dont have permission to that schema/table OR table does exist. Mostly this issue occurred if you are using other schema tables in your stored procedures. Eg. If you are running Stored Procedure from user/schema ABC and in the same PL/SQL there are tables which is from user/schema XYZ. In this case ABC should have GRANT i.e. privileges of XYZ tables

Grant All On To ABC;

Select * From Dba_Tab_Privs Where Owner = 'XYZ'and Table_Name = <Table_Name>;

How do I change the default schema in sql developer?

Just right clic on the created connection and select "Schema browser", then use the filter to display the desired one.

Cheers.

Oracle Error ORA-06512

The variable pCv is of type VARCHAR2 so when you concat the insert you aren't putting it inside single quotes:

 EXECUTE IMMEDIATE  'INSERT INTO M'||pNum||'GR (CV, SUP, IDM'||pNum||') VALUES('''||pCv||''', '||pSup||', '||pIdM||')';

Additionally the error ORA-06512 raise when you are trying to insert a value too large in a column. Check the definiton of the table M_pNum_GR and the parameters that you are sending. Just for clarify if you try to insert the value 100 on a NUMERIC(2) field the error will raise.

Vertical Menu in Bootstrap

With Bootstrap 2.0 you can give your tabs the "stackable" class, which makes them stack vertically.

Display number with leading zeros

x = [1, 10, 100]
for i in x:

Java String split removed empty values

you may have multiple separators, including whitespace characters, commas, semicolons, etc. take those in repeatable group with []+, like:

 String[] tokens = "a , b,  ,c; ;d,      ".split( "[,; \t\n\r]+" );

you'll have 4 tokens -- a, b, c, d

leading separators in the source string need to be removed before applying this split.

as answer to question asked:

String data = "5|6|7||8|9||";
String[] split = data.split("[\\| \t\n\r]+");

whitespaces added just in case if you'll have those as separators along with |

How to create a GUID / UUID

UUIDs (Universally Unique IDentifier), also known as GUIDs (Globally Unique IDentifier), according to RFC 4122, are identifiers designed to provide certain uniqueness guarantees.

While it is possible to implement RFC-compliant UUIDs in a few lines of JavaScript code (e.g., see @broofa's answer, below) there are several common pitfalls:

  • Invalid id format (UUIDs must be of the form "xxxxxxxx-xxxx-Mxxx-Nxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx", where x is one of [0-9, a-f] M is one of [1-5], and N is [8, 9, a, or b]
  • Use of a low-quality source of randomness (such as Math.random)

Thus, developers writing code for production environments are encouraged to use a rigorous, well-maintained implementation such as the uuid module.

Why is the gets function so dangerous that it should not be used?

Why is gets() dangerous

The first internet worm (the Morris Internet Worm) escaped about 30 years ago (1988-11-02), and it used gets() and a buffer overflow as one of its methods of propagating from system to system. The basic problem is that the function doesn't know how big the buffer is, so it continues reading until it finds a newline or encounters EOF, and may overflow the bounds of the buffer it was given.

You should forget you ever heard that gets() existed.

The C11 standard ISO/IEC 9899:2011 eliminated gets() as a standard function, which is A Good Thing™ (it was formally marked as 'obsolescent' and 'deprecated' in ISO/IEC 9899:1999/Cor.3:2007 — Technical Corrigendum 3 for C99, and then removed in C11). Sadly, it will remain in libraries for many years (meaning 'decades') for reasons of backwards compatibility. If it were up to me, the implementation of gets() would become:

char *gets(char *buffer)
{
    assert(buffer != 0);
    abort();
    return 0;
}

Given that your code will crash anyway, sooner or later, it is better to head the trouble off sooner rather than later. I'd be prepared to add an error message:

fputs("obsolete and dangerous function gets() called\n", stderr);

Modern versions of the Linux compilation system generates warnings if you link gets() — and also for some other functions that also have security problems (mktemp(), …).

Alternatives to gets()

fgets()

As everyone else said, the canonical alternative to gets() is fgets() specifying stdin as the file stream.

char buffer[BUFSIZ];

while (fgets(buffer, sizeof(buffer), stdin) != 0)
{
    ...process line of data...
}

What no-one else yet mentioned is that gets() does not include the newline but fgets() does. So, you might need to use a wrapper around fgets() that deletes the newline:

char *fgets_wrapper(char *buffer, size_t buflen, FILE *fp)
{
    if (fgets(buffer, buflen, fp) != 0)
    {
        size_t len = strlen(buffer);
        if (len > 0 && buffer[len-1] == '\n')
            buffer[len-1] = '\0';
        return buffer;
    }
    return 0;
}

Or, better:

char *fgets_wrapper(char *buffer, size_t buflen, FILE *fp)
{
    if (fgets(buffer, buflen, fp) != 0)
    {
        buffer[strcspn(buffer, "\n")] = '\0';
        return buffer;
    }
    return 0;
}

Also, as caf points out in a comment and paxdiablo shows in his answer, with fgets() you might have data left over on a line. My wrapper code leaves that data to be read next time; you can readily modify it to gobble the rest of the line of data if you prefer:

        if (len > 0 && buffer[len-1] == '\n')
            buffer[len-1] = '\0';
        else
        {
             int ch;
             while ((ch = getc(fp)) != EOF && ch != '\n')
                 ;
        }

The residual problem is how to report the three different result states — EOF or error, line read and not truncated, and partial line read but data was truncated.

This problem doesn't arise with gets() because it doesn't know where your buffer ends and merrily tramples beyond the end, wreaking havoc on your beautifully tended memory layout, often messing up the return stack (a Stack Overflow) if the buffer is allocated on the stack, or trampling over the control information if the buffer is dynamically allocated, or copying data over other precious global (or module) variables if the buffer is statically allocated. None of these is a good idea — they epitomize the phrase 'undefined behaviour`.


There is also the TR 24731-1 (Technical Report from the C Standard Committee) which provides safer alternatives to a variety of functions, including gets():

§6.5.4.1 The gets_s function

Synopsis

#define __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT1__ 1
#include <stdio.h>
char *gets_s(char *s, rsize_t n);

Runtime-constraints

s shall not be a null pointer. n shall neither be equal to zero nor be greater than RSIZE_MAX. A new-line character, end-of-file, or read error shall occur within reading n-1 characters from stdin.25)

3 If there is a runtime-constraint violation, s[0] is set to the null character, and characters are read and discarded from stdin until a new-line character is read, or end-of-file or a read error occurs.

Description

4 The gets_s function reads at most one less than the number of characters specified by n from the stream pointed to by stdin, into the array pointed to by s. No additional characters are read after a new-line character (which is discarded) or after end-of-file. The discarded new-line character does not count towards number of characters read. A null character is written immediately after the last character read into the array.

5 If end-of-file is encountered and no characters have been read into the array, or if a read error occurs during the operation, then s[0] is set to the null character, and the other elements of s take unspecified values.

Recommended practice

6 The fgets function allows properly-written programs to safely process input lines too long to store in the result array. In general this requires that callers of fgets pay attention to the presence or absence of a new-line character in the result array. Consider using fgets (along with any needed processing based on new-line characters) instead of gets_s.

25) The gets_s function, unlike gets, makes it a runtime-constraint violation for a line of input to overflow the buffer to store it. Unlike fgets, gets_s maintains a one-to-one relationship between input lines and successful calls to gets_s. Programs that use gets expect such a relationship.

The Microsoft Visual Studio compilers implement an approximation to the TR 24731-1 standard, but there are differences between the signatures implemented by Microsoft and those in the TR.

The C11 standard, ISO/IEC 9899-2011, includes TR24731 in Annex K as an optional part of the library. Unfortunately, it is seldom implemented on Unix-like systems.


getline() — POSIX

POSIX 2008 also provides a safe alternative to gets() called getline(). It allocates space for the line dynamically, so you end up needing to free it. It removes the limitation on line length, therefore. It also returns the length of the data that was read, or -1 (and not EOF!), which means that null bytes in the input can be handled reliably. There is also a 'choose your own single-character delimiter' variation called getdelim(); this can be useful if you are dealing with the output from find -print0 where the ends of the file names are marked with an ASCII NUL '\0' character, for example.

How can I create directories recursively?

I agree with Cat Plus Plus's answer. However, if you know this will only be used on Unix-like OSes, you can use external calls to the shell commands mkdir, chmod, and chown. Make sure to pass extra flags to recursively affect directories:

>>> import subprocess
>>> subprocess.check_output(['mkdir', '-p', 'first/second/third']) 
# Equivalent to running 'mkdir -p first/second/third' in a shell (which creates
# parent directories if they do not yet exist).

>>> subprocess.check_output(['chown', '-R', 'dail:users', 'first'])
# Recursively change owner to 'dail' and group to 'users' for 'first' and all of
# its subdirectories.

>>> subprocess.check_output(['chmod', '-R', 'g+w', 'first'])
# Add group write permissions to 'first' and all of its subdirectories.

EDIT I originally used commands, which was a bad choice since it is deprecated and vulnerable to injection attacks. (For example, if a user gave input to create a directory called first/;rm -rf --no-preserve-root /;, one could potentially delete all directories).

EDIT 2 If you are using Python less than 2.7, use check_call instead of check_output. See the subprocess documentation for details.

Regex to validate JSON

I realize that this is from over 6 years ago. However, I think there is a solution that nobody here has mentioned that is way easier than regexing

function isAJSON(string) {
    try {
        JSON.parse(string)  
    } catch(e) {
        if(e instanceof SyntaxError) return false;
    };  
    return true;
}

Multiplication by SIGN expression is equivalent to MAX(0, @DesiredLenght-LEN([Column])). The problem is that MAX() accepts only one argument...

Reset Windows Activation/Remove license key

  1. Open a command prompt as an Administrator.

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

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

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

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

Hope this helps you out!

What is an idiomatic way of representing enums in Go?

I am sure we have a lot of good answers here. But, I just thought of adding the way I have used enumerated types

package main

import "fmt"

type Enum interface {
    name() string
    ordinal() int
    values() *[]string
}

type GenderType uint

const (
    MALE = iota
    FEMALE
)

var genderTypeStrings = []string{
    "MALE",
    "FEMALE",
}

func (gt GenderType) name() string {
    return genderTypeStrings[gt]
}

func (gt GenderType) ordinal() int {
    return int(gt)
}

func (gt GenderType) values() *[]string {
    return &genderTypeStrings
}

func main() {
    var ds GenderType = MALE
    fmt.Printf("The Gender is %s\n", ds.name())
}

This is by far one of the idiomatic ways we could create Enumerated types and use in Go.

Edit:

Adding another way of using constants to enumerate

package main

import (
    "fmt"
)

const (
    // UNSPECIFIED logs nothing
    UNSPECIFIED Level = iota // 0 :
    // TRACE logs everything
    TRACE // 1
    // INFO logs Info, Warnings and Errors
    INFO // 2
    // WARNING logs Warning and Errors
    WARNING // 3
    // ERROR just logs Errors
    ERROR // 4
)

// Level holds the log level.
type Level int

func SetLogLevel(level Level) {
    switch level {
    case TRACE:
        fmt.Println("trace")
        return

    case INFO:
        fmt.Println("info")
        return

    case WARNING:
        fmt.Println("warning")
        return
    case ERROR:
        fmt.Println("error")
        return

    default:
        fmt.Println("default")
        return

    }
}

func main() {

    SetLogLevel(INFO)

}

Java, How to get number of messages in a topic in apache kafka

If you have access to server's JMX interface, the start & end offsets are present at:

kafka.log:type=Log,name=LogStartOffset,topic=TOPICNAME,partition=PARTITIONNUMBER
kafka.log:type=Log,name=LogEndOffset,topic=TOPICNAME,partition=PARTITIONNUMBER

(you need to replace TOPICNAME & PARTITIONNUMBER). Bear in mind you need to check for each of the replicas of given partition, or you need to find out which one of the brokers is the leader for a given partition (and this can change over time).

Alternatively, you can use Kafka Consumer methods beginningOffsets and endOffsets.

What is function overloading and overriding in php?

PHP 5.x.x does not support overloading this is why PHP is not fully OOP.

Current time formatting with Javascript

A JavaScript Date has several methods allowing you to extract its parts:

getFullYear() - Returns the 4-digit year
getMonth() - Returns a zero-based integer (0-11) representing the month of the year.
getDate() - Returns the day of the month (1-31).
getDay() - Returns the day of the week (0-6). 0 is Sunday, 6 is Saturday.
getHours() - Returns the hour of the day (0-23).
getMinutes() - Returns the minute (0-59).
getSeconds() - Returns the second (0-59).
getMilliseconds() - Returns the milliseconds (0-999).
getTimezoneOffset() - Returns the number of minutes between the machine local time and UTC.

There are no built-in methods allowing you to get localized strings like "Friday", "February", or "PM". You have to code that yourself. To get the string you want, you at least need to store string representations of days and months:

var months = ["Jan", "Feb", "Mar", "Apr", "May", "Jun", "Jul", "Aug", "Sep", "Oct", "Nov", "Dec"];
var days = ["Sunday", "Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday", "Thursday", "Friday", "Saturday"];

Then, put it together using the methods above:

_x000D_
_x000D_
var months = ["Jan", "Feb", "Mar", "Apr", "May", "Jun", "Jul", "Aug", "Sep", "Oct", "Nov", "Dec"];_x000D_
var days = ["Sunday", "Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday", "Thursday", "Friday", "Saturday"];_x000D_
var d = new Date();_x000D_
var day = days[d.getDay()];_x000D_
var hr = d.getHours();_x000D_
var min = d.getMinutes();_x000D_
if (min < 10) {_x000D_
    min = "0" + min;_x000D_
}_x000D_
var ampm = "am";_x000D_
if( hr > 12 ) {_x000D_
    hr -= 12;_x000D_
    ampm = "pm";_x000D_
}_x000D_
var date = d.getDate();_x000D_
var month = months[d.getMonth()];_x000D_
var year = d.getFullYear();_x000D_
var x = document.getElementById("time");_x000D_
x.innerHTML = day + " " + hr + ":" + min + ampm + " " + date + " " + month + " " + year;
_x000D_
<span id="time"></span>
_x000D_
_x000D_
_x000D_

I have a date format function I like to include in my standard library. It takes a format string parameter that defines the desired output. The format strings are loosely based on .Net custom Date and Time format strings. For the format you specified the following format string would work: "dddd h:mmtt d MMM yyyy".

var d = new Date();
var x = document.getElementById("time");
x.innerHTML = formatDate(d, "dddd h:mmtt d MMM yyyy");

How do you prevent install of "devDependencies" NPM modules for Node.js (package.json)?

It's worth mentioning that you can use the NODE_ENV environment variable to achieve the same result. Particularly useful if you're containerizing your Node application (e.g. Docker).

NODE_ENV=production npm install

The above code will install all your dependencies but the dev ones (i.e. devDependencies).

if you need to use environment variables in your Dockerfile more information can be found here.

Environment variables are easy to overwrite whenever needed (e.g. if you want to run your test suite say on Travis CI). If that were the case you could do something like this:

docker run -v $(pwd):/usr/src/app --rm -it -e NODE_ENV=production node:8 npm install

NPM Documentation here

production

  • Default: false
  • Type: Boolean Set to true to run in "production" mode.

    1. devDependencies are not installed at the topmost level when running local npm install without any arguments.
    2. Set the NODE_ENV="production" for lifecycle scripts.

Happy containerization =)

How to play YouTube video in my Android application?

I didn't want to have to have the YouTube app present on the device so I used this tutorial:

http://www.viralandroid.com/2015/09/how-to-embed-youtube-video-in-android-webview.html

...to produce this code in my app:

WebView mWebView; 

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    setContentView(R.layout.video_webview);
    mWebView=(WebView)findViewById(R.id.videoview);

    //build your own src link with your video ID
    String videoStr = "<html><body>Promo video<br><iframe width=\"420\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/47yJ2XCRLZs\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen></iframe></body></html>";

    mWebView.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient() {
        @Override
        public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
                return false;
        }
    });
    WebSettings ws = mWebView.getSettings();
    ws.setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
    mWebView.loadData(videoStr, "text/html", "utf-8");

}

//video_webview
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:layout_marginLeft="0dp"
    android:layout_marginRight="0dp"
    android:background="#000000"
    android:id="@+id/bmp_programme_ll"
    android:orientation="vertical" >

   <WebView
    android:id="@+id/videoview" 
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    />  
</LinearLayout>     

This worked just how I wanted it. It doesn't autoplay but the video streams within my app. Worth noting that some restricted videos won't play when embedded.

How to rename JSON key

If anyone needs to do this dynamically:

const keys = Object.keys(jsonObject);

keys.forEach((key) => {

      // CREATE A NEW KEY HERE
      var newKey = key.replace(' ', '_');

      jsonObject[newKey] = jsonObject[key];
      delete jsonObject[key];
   });

jsonObject will now have the new keys.

IMPORTANT:

If your key is not changed by the replace function, it will just take it out of the array. You may want to put some if statements in there.

How to 'foreach' a column in a DataTable using C#?

I believe this is what you want:

DataTable dtTable = new DataTable();
foreach (DataRow dtRow in dtTable.Rows)
{
    foreach (DataColumn dc in dtRow.ItemArray)
    {

    }
}

How to center align the cells of a UICollectionView?

I have a tag bar in my app which uses an UICollectionView & UICollectionViewFlowLayout, with one row of cells center aligned.

To get the correct indent, you subtract the total width of all the cells (including spacing) from the width of your UICollectionView, and divide by two.

[........Collection View.........]
[..Cell..][..Cell..]
                   [____indent___] / 2

=

[_____][..Cell..][..Cell..][_____]

The problem is this function -

- (UIEdgeInsets)collectionView:(UICollectionView *)collectionView layout:(UICollectionViewLayout*)collectionViewLayout insetForSectionAtIndex:(NSInteger)section;

is called before...

- (UICollectionViewCell *)collectionView:(UICollectionView *)collectionView cellForItemAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath;

...so you can't iterate over your cells to determine the total width.

Instead you need to calculate the width of each cell again, in my case I use [NSString sizeWithFont: ... ] as my cell widths are determined by the UILabel itself.

- (UIEdgeInsets)collectionView:(UICollectionView *)collectionView layout:(UICollectionViewLayout*)collectionViewLayout insetForSectionAtIndex:(NSInteger)section
{
    CGFloat rightEdge = 0;
    CGFloat interItemSpacing = [(UICollectionViewFlowLayout*)collectionViewLayout minimumInteritemSpacing];

    for(NSString * tag in _tags)
        rightEdge += [tag sizeWithFont:[UIFont systemFontOfSize:14]].width+interItemSpacing;

    // To center the inter spacing too
    rightEdge -= interSpacing/2;

    // Calculate the inset
    CGFloat inset = collectionView.frame.size.width-rightEdge;

    // Only center align if the inset is greater than 0
    // That means that the total width of the cells is less than the width of the collection view and need to be aligned to the center.
    // Otherwise let them align left with no indent.

    if(inset > 0)
        return UIEdgeInsetsMake(0, inset/2, 0, 0);
    else
        return UIEdgeInsetsMake(0, 0, 0, 0);
}

What does Include() do in LINQ?

Let's say for instance you want to get a list of all your customers:

var customers = context.Customers.ToList();

And let's assume that each Customer object has a reference to its set of Orders, and that each Order has references to LineItems which may also reference a Product.

As you can see, selecting a top-level object with many related entities could result in a query that needs to pull in data from many sources. As a performance measure, Include() allows you to indicate which related entities should be read from the database as part of the same query.

Using the same example, this might bring in all of the related order headers, but none of the other records:

var customersWithOrderDetail = context.Customers.Include("Orders").ToList();

As a final point since you asked for SQL, the first statement without Include() could generate a simple statement:

SELECT * FROM Customers;

The final statement which calls Include("Orders") may look like this:

SELECT *
FROM Customers JOIN Orders ON Customers.Id = Orders.CustomerId;

How to access JSON Object name/value?

I think you should mention dataType: 'json' in ajax config and to access that value:

data[0].name

Return number of rows affected by UPDATE statements

You might need to collect the stats as you go, but @@ROWCOUNT captures this:

declare @Fish table (
Name varchar(32)
)

insert into @Fish values ('Cod')
insert into @Fish values ('Salmon')
insert into @Fish values ('Butterfish')
update @Fish set Name = 'LurpackFish' where Name = 'Butterfish'
select @@ROWCOUNT  --gives 1

update @Fish set Name = 'Dinner'
select @@ROWCOUNT -- gives 3

java.lang.RuntimeException: Uncompilable source code - what can cause this?

If it is Netbeans, try to uncheck "Compile on save" setting in the project properties (Build -> Compiling). This is the only thing which helped me in a similar situation.

mysql alphabetical order

but result showing all records starting with a or c or d i want to show records only starting with b

You should use WHERE in that case:

select name from user where name = 'b' order by name

If you want to allow regex, you can use the LIKE operator there too if you want. Example:

select name from user where name like 'b%' order by name

That will select records starting with b. Following query on the other hand will select all rows where b is found anywhere in the column:

select name from user where name like '%b%' order by name

Display the current date and time using HTML and Javascript with scrollable effects in hta application

Method 1:


With marquee tag.

HTML

<marquee behavior="scroll" bgcolor="yellow" loop="-1" width="30%">
   <i>
      <font color="blue">
        Today's date is : 
        <strong>
         <span id="time"></span>
        </strong>           
      </font>
   </i>
</marquee> 

JS

var today = new Date();
document.getElementById('time').innerHTML=today;

How to read all of Inputstream in Server Socket JAVA

You can read your BufferedInputStream like this. It will read data till it reaches end of stream which is indicated by -1.

inputS = new BufferedInputStream(inBS);
byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];    //If you handle larger data use a bigger buffer size
int read;
while((read = inputS.read(buffer)) != -1) {
    System.out.println(read);
    // Your code to handle the data
}

Difference between Hashing a Password and Encrypting it

Hashing algorithms are usually cryptographic in nature, but the principal difference is that encryption is reversible through decryption, and hashing is not.

An encryption function typically takes input and produces encrypted output that is the same, or slightly larger size.

A hashing function takes input and produces a typically smaller output, typically of a fixed size as well.

While it isn't possible to take a hashed result and "dehash" it to get back the original input, you can typically brute-force your way to something that produces the same hash.

In other words, if a authentication scheme takes a password, hashes it, and compares it to a hashed version of the requires password, it might not be required that you actually know the original password, only its hash, and you can brute-force your way to something that will match, even if it's a different password.

Hashing functions are typically created to minimize the chance of collisions and make it hard to just calculate something that will produce the same hash as something else.

Linq to Sql: Multiple left outer joins

I think you should be able to follow the method used in this post. It looks really ugly, but I would think you could do it twice and get the result you want.

I wonder if this is actually a case where you'd be better off using DataContext.ExecuteCommand(...) instead of converting to linq.

DataTables: Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'defaults' of undefined

<script src="https://cdn.datatables.net/1.10.22/js/jquery.dataTables.min.js"defer</script>

Add Defer to the end of your Script tag, it worked for me (;

Everything needs to be loaded in the correct order (:

ScrollTo function in AngularJS

Another suggestion. One directive with selector.

HTML:

<button type="button" scroll-to="#catalogSection">Scroll To</button>

Angular:

app.directive('scrollTo', function () {
    return {
        restrict: 'A',
        link: function (scope, element, attrs) {
            element.on('click', function () {

                var target = $(attrs.scrollTo);
                if (target.length > 0) {
                    $('html, body').animate({
                        scrollTop: target.offset().top
                    });
                }
            });
        }
    }
});

Initialize static variables in C++ class?

Static member variables must be declared in the class and then defined outside of it!

There's no workaround, just put their actual definition in a source file.


From your description it smells like you're not using static variables the right way. If they never change you should use constant variable instead, but your description is too generic to say something more.

Static member variables always hold the same value for any instance of your class: if you change a static variable of one object, it will change also for all the other objects (and in fact you can also access them without an instance of the class - ie: an object).
