How to set bot's status

.setGame is discontinued. Use:

client.user.setActivity("Game");

To set a playing game status.

As an addition, if you were using an earlier version of discord.js, try this:

client.user.setGame("Game");

In newer versions of discord.js, this is deprecated.

Download image from the site in .NET/C#

Also possible to use DownloadData method

    private byte[] GetImage(string iconPath)
    {
        using (WebClient client = new WebClient())
        {
            byte[] pic = client.DownloadData(iconPath);
            //string checkPath = Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.MyDocuments) +@"\1.png";
            //File.WriteAllBytes(checkPath, pic);
            return pic;
        }
    }

Download/Stream file from URL - asp.net

Download url to bytes and convert bytes into stream:

using (var client = new WebClient())
{
    var content = client.DownloadData(url);
    using (var stream = new MemoryStream(content))
    {
        ...
    }
}

Live-stream video from one android phone to another over WiFi

If you do not need the recording and playback functionality in your app, using off-the-shelf streaming app and player is a reasonable choice.

If you do need them to be in your app, however, you will have to look into MediaRecorder API (for the server/camera app) and MediaPlayer (for client/player app).

Quick sample code for the server:

// this is your network socket
ParcelFileDescriptor pfd = ParcelFileDescriptor.fromSocket(socket);
mCamera = getCameraInstance();
mMediaRecorder = new MediaRecorder();
mCamera.unlock();
mMediaRecorder.setCamera(mCamera);
mMediaRecorder.setAudioSource(MediaRecorder.AudioSource.CAMCORDER);
mMediaRecorder.setVideoSource(MediaRecorder.VideoSource.CAMERA);
// this is the unofficially supported MPEG2TS format, suitable for streaming (Android 3.0+)
mMediaRecorder.setOutputFormat(8);
mMediaRecorder.setAudioEncoder(MediaRecorder.AudioEncoder.DEFAULT);
mMediaRecorder.setVideoEncoder(MediaRecorder.VideoEncoder.DEFAULT);
mediaRecorder.setOutputFile(pfd.getFileDescriptor());
mMediaRecorder.setPreviewDisplay(mPreview.getHolder().getSurface());
mMediaRecorder.prepare();
mMediaRecorder.start();

On the player side it is a bit tricky, you could try this:

// this is your network socket, connected to the server
ParcelFileDescriptor pfd = ParcelFileDescriptor.fromSocket(socket);
mMediaPlayer = new MediaPlayer();
mMediaPlayer.setDataSource(pfd.getFileDescriptor());
mMediaPlayer.prepare();
mMediaPlayer.start();

Unfortunately mediaplayer tends to not like this, so you have a couple of options: either (a) save data from socket to file and (after you have a bit of data) play with mediaplayer from file, or (b) make a tiny http proxy that runs locally and can accept mediaplayer's GET request, reply with HTTP headers, and then copy data from the remote server to it. For (a) you would create the mediaplayer with a file path or file url, for (b) give it a http url pointing to your proxy.

Chrome hangs after certain amount of data transfered - waiting for available socket

Chrome is a Chromium-based browser and Chromium-based browsers only allow maximum 6 open socket connections at a time, when the 7th connection starts up it will just sit idle and wait for one of the 6 which are running to stop and then it will start running. Hence the error code ‘waiting for available sockets’, the 7th one will wait for one of those 6 sockets to become available and then it will start running.

You can either

1. Clear browser cache & cookies (https://geekdroids.com/waiting-for-available-socket/#1_Clear_browser_cache_cookies)
1. Flush socket pools (https://geekdroids.com/waiting-for-available-socket/#2_Flush_socket_pools)
1. Flush DNS (https://geekdroids.com/waiting-for-available-socket/#3_Flush_DNS)

How can I stream webcam video with C#?

I've used VideoCapX for our project. It will stream out as MMS/ASF stream which can be open by media player. You can then embed media player into your webpage.

If you won't need much control, or if you want to try out VideoCapX without writing a code, try U-Broadcast, they use VideoCapX behind the scene.

Streaming video from Android camera to server

I've built an open-source SDK called Kickflip to make streaming video from Android a painless experience.

The SDK demonstrates use of Android 4.3's MediaCodec API to direct the device hardware encoder's packets directly to FFmpeg for RTMP (with librtmp) or HLS streaming of H.264 / AAC. It also demonstrates realtime OpenGL Effects (titling, chroma key, fades) and background recording.

Thanks SO, and especially, fadden.

How to write super-fast file-streaming code in C#?

How large is length? You may do better to re-use a fixed sized (moderately large, but not obscene) buffer, and forget BinaryReader... just use Stream.Read and Stream.Write.

(edit) something like:

private static void copy(string srcFile, string dstFile, int offset,
     int length, byte[] buffer)
{
    using(Stream inStream = File.OpenRead(srcFile))
    using (Stream outStream = File.OpenWrite(dstFile))
    {
        inStream.Seek(offset, SeekOrigin.Begin);
        int bufferLength = buffer.Length, bytesRead;
        while (length > bufferLength &&
            (bytesRead = inStream.Read(buffer, 0, bufferLength)) > 0)
        {
            outStream.Write(buffer, 0, bytesRead);
            length -= bytesRead;
        }
        while (length > 0 &&
            (bytesRead = inStream.Read(buffer, 0, length)) > 0)
        {
            outStream.Write(buffer, 0, bytesRead);
            length -= bytesRead;
        }
    }        
}

Best approach to real time http streaming to HTML5 video client

This is a very common misconception. There is no live HTML5 video support (except for HLS on iOS and Mac Safari). You may be able to 'hack' it using a webm container, but I would not expect that to be universally supported. What you are looking for is included in the Media Source Extensions, where you can feed the fragments to the browser one at a time. but you will need to write some client side javascript.

Android video streaming example

Your problem is most likely with the video file, not the code. Your video is most likely not "safe for streaming". See where to place videos to stream android for more.

Streaming via RTSP or RTP in HTML5

My observations regarding the HTML 5 video tag and rtsp(rtp) streams are, that it only works with konqueror(KDE 4.4.1, Phonon-backend set to GStreamer). I got only video (no audio) with a H.264/AAC RTSP(RTP) stream.

The streams from http://media.esof2010.org/ didn't work with konqueror(KDE 4.4.1, Phonon-backend set to GStreamer).

What is the difference between RTP or RTSP in a streaming server?

RTSP (actually RTP) can be used for streaming video, but also many other types of media including live presentations. Rtsp is just the protocol used to setup the RTP session.

For all the details you can check out my open source RTSP Server implementation on the following address: https://net7mma.codeplex.com/

Or my article @ http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/507218/Managed-Media-Aggregation-using-Rtsp-and-Rtp

It supports re-sourcing streams as well as the dynamic creation of streams, various RFC's are implemented and the library achieves better performance and less memory then FFMPEG and just about any other solutions in the transport layer and thus makes it a good candidate to use as a centralized point of access for most scenarios.

Live Video Streaming with PHP

You can easily build a website as per the requirements. PHP will be there to handle the website development part. All the hosting and normal website development will work just as it is. However, for the streaming part, you will have to choose a good streaming service. Whether it is Red5 or Adobe, you can choose from plenty of services.

Choose a service that provides a dedicated storage to get something done right. If you do not know how to configure the server properly, you can just choose a streaming service. Good services often give a CDN that helps broadcast the stream efficiently. Simply launch your website in PHP and embed the YouTube player in the said web page to get it working.

Read a plain text file with php

$file="./doc.txt";
$doc=file_get_contents($file);

$line=explode("\n",$doc);
foreach($line as $newline){
    echo '<h3 style="color:#453288">'.$newline.'</h3><br>';

clear form values after submission ajax

You can do this inside your $.post calls success callback like this

$.post('mail.php',{name:$('#name').val(),
                              email:$('#e-mail').val(),
                              phone:$('#phone').val(),
                              message:$('#message').val()},

            //return the data
            function(data){

              //hide the graphic
              $('.bar').css({display:'none'});
              $('.loader').append(data);

              //clear fields
              $('input[type="text"],textarea').val('');

            });

Auto-refreshing div with jQuery - setTimeout or another method?

Another modification:

function update() {
  $.get("response.php", function(data) {
    $("#some_div").html(data);
    window.setTimeout(update, 10000);
  });
}

The difference with this is that it waits 10 seconds AFTER the ajax call is one. So really the time between refreshes is 10 seconds + length of ajax call. The benefit of this is if your server takes longer than 10 seconds to respond, you don't get two (and eventually, many) simultaneous AJAX calls happening.

Also, if the server fails to respond, it won't keep trying.

I've used a similar method in the past using .ajax to handle even more complex behaviour:

function update() {
  $("#notice_div").html('Loading..'); 
  $.ajax({
    type: 'GET',
    url: 'response.php',
    timeout: 2000,
    success: function(data) {
      $("#some_div").html(data);
      $("#notice_div").html(''); 
      window.setTimeout(update, 10000);
    },
    error: function (XMLHttpRequest, textStatus, errorThrown) {
      $("#notice_div").html('Timeout contacting server..');
      window.setTimeout(update, 60000);
    }
}

This shows a loading message while loading (put an animated gif in there for typical "web 2.0" style). If the server times out (in this case takes longer than 2s) or any other kind of error happens, it shows an error, and it waits for 60 seconds before contacting the server again.

This can be especially beneficial when doing fast updates with a larger number of users, where you don't want everyone to suddenly cripple a lagging server with requests that are all just timing out anyways.

C# Error: Parent does not contain a constructor that takes 0 arguments

By default compiler tries to call parameterless constructor of base class.

In case if the base class doesn't have a parameterless constructor, you have to explicitly call it yourself:

public child(int i) : base(i){
Console.WriteLine("child");}

      ON tc.constraint_name = kcu.constraint_name
      AND tc.table_schema = kcu.table_schema
    JOIN information_schema.constraint_column_usage AS ccu
      ON ccu.constraint_name = tc.constraint_name
      AND ccu.table_schema = tc.table_schema
WHERE tc.constraint_type = 'FOREIGN KEY' AND tc.table_name='mytable';

How can I get Maven to stop attempting to check for updates for artifacts from a certain group from maven-central-repo?

It's my tips

Mock a constructor with parameter

To my knowledge, you can't mock constructors with mockito, only methods. But according to the wiki on the Mockito google code page there is a way to mock the constructor behavior by creating a method in your class which return a new instance of that class. then you can mock out that method. Below is an excerpt directly from the Mockito wiki:

Pattern 1 - using one-line methods for object creation

To use pattern 1 (testing a class called MyClass), you would replace a call like
   Foo foo = new Foo( a, b, c );
with
   Foo foo = makeFoo( a, b, c );
and write a one-line method
   Foo makeFoo( A a, B b, C c ) { 
        return new Foo( a, b, c );
   }
It's important that you don't include any logic in the method; just the one line that creates the object. The reason for this is that the method itself is never going to be unit tested.

When you come to test the class, the object that you test will actually be a Mockito spy, with this method overridden, to return a mock. What you're testing is therefore not the class itself, but a very slightly modified version of it.

Your test class might contain members like
  @Mock private Foo mockFoo;
  private MyClass toTest = spy(new MyClass());
Lastly, inside your test method you mock out the call to makeFoo with a line like
  doReturn( mockFoo )
      .when( toTest )
      .makeFoo( any( A.class ), any( B.class ), any( C.class ));
You can use matchers that are more specific than any() if you want to check the arguments that are passed to the constructor.

If you're just wanting to return a mocked object of your class I think this should work for you. In any case you can read more about mocking object creation here:

http://code.google.com/p/mockito/wiki/MockingObjectCreation

Merge two array of objects based on a key

This solution is applicable even when you have different size of array being merged. Also, even if the keys on which match is happening has a different name.

const arr1 = [
  { id: "abdc4051", date: "2017-01-24" }, 
  { id: "abdc4052", date: "2017-01-22" },
  { id: "abdc4053", date: "2017-01-22" }
];
const arr2 = [
  { nameId: "abdc4051", name: "ab" },
  { nameId: "abdc4052", name: "abc" }
];

Now to merge these use a Map as follows:

const map = new Map();
arr1.forEach(item => map.set(item.id, item));
arr2.forEach(item => map.set(item.nameId, {...map.get(item.nameId), ...item}));
const mergedArr = Array.from(map.values());

This should result in:

[
  {
    "id": "abdc4051",
    "date": "2017-01-24",
    "nameId": "abdc4051",
    "name": "ab"
  },
  {
    "id": "abdc4052",
    "date": "2017-01-22",
    "nameId": "abdc4052",
    "name": "abc"
  },
  {
    "id": "abdc4053",
    "date": "2017-01-22"
  }
]

ERROR 1049 (42000): Unknown database

blog_development doesn't exist

You can see this in sql by the 0 rows affected message

create it in mysql with

mysql> create database blog_development

However as you are using rails you should get used to using

$ rake db:create

to do the same task. It will use your database.yml file settings, which should include something like:

development:
  adapter: mysql2
  database: blog_development
  pool: 5

Also become familiar with:

$ rake db:migrate  # Run the database migration
$ rake db:seed     # Run thew seeds file create statements
$ rake db:drop     # Drop the database

java.io.FileNotFoundException: the system cannot find the file specified

Relative paths can be used, but they can be tricky. The best solution is to know where your files are being saved, that is, print the folder:

import java.io.File;
import java.util.*;

public class Hangman1 {

    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        File myFile = new File("word.txt");
        System.out.println("Attempting to read from file in: "+myFile.getCanonicalPath());

        Scanner input = new Scanner(myFile);
        String in = "";
        in = input.nextLine();
    }

}

This code should print the folder where it is looking for. Place the file there and you'll be good to go.

Java - Abstract class to contain variables?

Of course. The whole idea of abstract classes is that they can contain some behaviour or data which you require all sub-classes to contain. Think of the simple example of WheeledVehicle - it should have a numWheels member variable. You want all sub classes to have this variable. Remember that abstract classes are a very useful feature when developing APIs, as they can ensure that people who extend your API won't break it.

Rails - passing parameters in link_to

Remove items from one list in another

I would recommend using the LINQ extension methods. You can easily do it with one line of code like so:

list2 = list2.Except(list1).ToList();

This is assuming of course the objects in list1 that you are removing from list2 are the same instance.

List of strings to one string

My vote is string.Join

No need for lambda evaluations and temporary functions to be created, fewer function calls, less stack pushing and popping.

java.util.Date vs java.sql.Date

The only time to use java.sql.Date is in a PreparedStatement.setDate. Otherwise, use java.util.Date. It's telling that ResultSet.getDate returns a java.sql.Date but it can be assigned directly to a java.util.Date.

WPF Data Binding and Validation Rules Best Practices

personaly, i'm using exceptions to handle validation. it requires following steps:

in your data binding expression, you need to add "ValidatesOnException=True"
in you data object you are binding to, you need to add DependencyPropertyChanged handler where you check if new value fulfills your conditions - if not - you restore to the object old value (if you need to) and you throw exception.
in your control template you use for displaying invalid value in the control, you can access Error collection and display exception message.

the trick here, is to bind only to objects which derive from DependencyObject. simple implementation of INotifyPropertyChanged wouldn't work - there is a bug in the framework, which prevents you from accessing error collection.

Adding a right click menu to an item

Add a contextmenu to your form and then assign it in the control's properties under ContextMenuStrip. Hope this helps :).

Hope this helps:

ContextMenu cm = new ContextMenu();
cm.MenuItems.Add("Item 1");
cm.MenuItems.Add("Item 2");

pictureBox1.ContextMenu = cm;

Cloudfront custom-origin distribution returns 502 "ERROR The request could not be satisfied." for some URLs

In my case, it was because we had an invalid ssl cert. The problem was on our staging box and we use our prod cert on that as well. It had worked for the past couple of years with this configuration, but all of a sudden we started getting this error. Strange.

If others are getting this error, check that the ssl certificate is valid. You can enable logging to s3 via the AWS CloudFront Distribution interface to aid debugging.

Also, you can refer to amazon's docs on the matter here: http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonCloudFront/latest/DeveloperGuide/SecureConnections.html

ASP.NET MVC get textbox input value

you can do it so simple:

First: For Example in Models you have User.cs with this implementation

public class User
 {
   public string username { get; set; }
   public string age { get; set; }
 }

We are passing the empty model to user – This model would be filled with user’s data when he submits the form like this

public ActionResult Add()
{
  var model = new User();
  return View(model);
}

When you return the View by empty User as model, it maps with the structure of the form that you implemented. We have this on HTML side:

@model MyApp.Models.Student
@using (Html.BeginForm()) 
 {
    @Html.AntiForgeryToken()

    <div class="form-horizontal">
        <h4>Student</h4>
        <hr />
        @Html.ValidationSummary(true, "", new { @class = "text-danger" })
        <div class="form-group">
            @Html.LabelFor(model => model.username, htmlAttributes: new { 
                           @class = "control-label col-md-2" })
            <div class="col-md-10">
                 @Html.EditorFor(model => model.username, new { 
                                 htmlAttributes = new { @class = "form-
                                 control" } })
                 @Html.ValidationMessageFor(model => model.userame, "", 
                                            new { @class = "text-danger" })
            </div>
        </div>

        <div class="form-group">
            @Html.LabelFor(model => model.age, htmlAttributes: new { @class 
                           = "control-label col-md-2" })
            <div class="col-md-10">
                @Html.EditorFor(model => model.age, new { htmlAttributes = 
                                new { @class = "form-control" } })
                @Html.ValidationMessageFor(model => model.age, "", new { 
                                           @class = "text-danger" })
            </div>
        </div>
        <div class="form-group">
            <div class="col-md-offset-2 col-md-10">
                <input type="submit" value="Create" class="btn btn-default" 
                 />
            </div>
        </div>
   </div>
}

So on button submit you will use it like this

[HttpPost]
public ActionResult Add(User user)
 {

How can I work with command line on synology?

You can use your favourite telnet (not recommended) or ssh (recommended) application to connect to your Synology box and use it as a terminal.

Enable the command line interface (CLI) from the Network Services
Define the protocol and the user and make sure the user has password set
Access the CLI

If you need more detailed instruction read https://www.synology.com/en-global/knowledgebase/DSM/help/DSM/AdminCenter/system_terminal

Synchronous request in Node.js

You could do this using my Common Node library:

function get(url) {
  return new (require('httpclient').HttpClient)({
    method: 'GET',
      url: url
    }).finish().body.read().decodeToString();
}

var a = get('www.example.com/api_1.php'), 
    b = get('www.example.com/api_2.php'),
    c = get('www.example.com/api_3.php');

Why do I get "Procedure expects parameter '@statement' of type 'ntext/nchar/nvarchar'." when I try to use sp_executesql?

Sounds like you're calling sp_executesql with a VARCHAR statement, when it needs to be NVARCHAR.

e.g. This will give the error because @SQL needs to be NVARCHAR

DECLARE @SQL VARCHAR(100)
SET @SQL = 'SELECT TOP 1 * FROM sys.tables'
EXECUTE sp_executesql @SQL

So:

DECLARE @SQL NVARCHAR(100)
SET @SQL = 'SELECT TOP 1 * FROM sys.tables'
EXECUTE sp_executesql @SQL

What does the fpermissive flag do?

Right from the docs:

-fpermissive
Downgrade some diagnostics about nonconformant code from errors to warnings. Thus, using -fpermissive will allow some nonconforming code to compile.

Bottom line: don't use it unless you know what you are doing!

How do I check in SQLite whether a table exists?

If you are getting a "table already exists" error, make changes in the SQL string as below:

CREATE table IF NOT EXISTS table_name (para1,para2);

This way you can avoid the exceptions.

how to overwrite css style

Hope it helps.

How do I prevent and/or handle a StackOverflowException?

From Microsoft:

Starting with the .NET Framework version 2.0, a StackOverflowException object cannot be caught by a try-catch block and the corresponding process is terminated by default. Consequently, users are advised to write their code to detect and prevent a stack overflow. For example, if your application depends on recursion, use a counter or a state condition to terminate the recursive loop.

I'm assuming the exception is happening within an internal .NET method, and not in your code.

You can do a couple things.

Write code that checks the xsl for infinite recursion and notifies the user prior to applying a transform (Ugh).
Load the XslTransform code into a separate process (Hacky, but less work).

You can use the Process class to load the assembly that will apply the transform into a separate process, and alert the user of the failure if it dies, without killing your main app.

EDIT: I just tested, here is how to do it:

MainProcess:

// This is just an example, obviously you'll want to pass args to this.
Process p1 = new Process();
p1.StartInfo.FileName = "ApplyTransform.exe";
p1.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = false;
p1.StartInfo.WindowStyle = ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden;

p1.Start();
p1.WaitForExit();

if (p1.ExitCode == 1)    
   Console.WriteLine("StackOverflow was thrown");

ApplyTransform Process:

class Program
{
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        AppDomain.CurrentDomain.UnhandledException += new UnhandledExceptionEventHandler(CurrentDomain_UnhandledException);
        throw new StackOverflowException();
    }

    // We trap this, we can't save the process, 
    // but we can prevent the "ILLEGAL OPERATION" window 
    static void CurrentDomain_UnhandledException(object sender, UnhandledExceptionEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.IsTerminating)
        {
            Environment.Exit(1);
        }
    }
}

Python urllib2, basic HTTP authentication, and tr.im

Take a look at this SO post answer and also look at this basic authentication tutorial from the urllib2 missing manual.

In order for urllib2 basic authentication to work, the http response must contain HTTP code 401 Unauthorized and a key "WWW-Authenticate" with the value "Basic" otherwise, Python won't send your login info, and you will need to either use Requests, or urllib.urlopen(url) with your login in the url, or add a the header like in @Flowpoke's answer.

You can view your error by putting your urlopen in a try block:

try:
    urllib2.urlopen(urllib2.Request(url))
except urllib2.HTTPError, e:
    print e.headers
    print e.headers.has_key('WWW-Authenticate')

How to find GCD, LCM on a set of numbers

for gcd you cad do as below:

    String[] ss = new Scanner(System.in).nextLine().split("\\s+");
    BigInteger bi,bi2 = null;
    bi2 = new BigInteger(ss[1]);
    for(int i = 0 ; i<ss.length-1 ; i+=2 )
    {
        bi = new BigInteger(ss[i]);
        bi2 = bi.gcd(bi2);
    }
    System.out.println(bi2.toString());

Git copy file preserving history

I've slightly modified Peter's answer here to create a reusable, non-interactive shell script called git-split.sh:

#!/bin/sh

if [[ $# -ne 2 ]] ; then
  echo "Usage: git-split.sh original copy"
  exit 0
fi

git mv "$1" "$2"
git commit -n -m "Split history $1 to $2 - rename file to target-name"
REV=`git rev-parse HEAD`
git reset --hard HEAD^
git mv "$1" temp
git commit -n -m "Split history $1 to $2 - rename source-file to temp"
git merge $REV
git commit -a -n -m "Split history $1 to $2 - resolve conflict and keep both files"
git mv temp "$1"
git commit -n -m "Split history $1 to $2 - restore name of source-file"

Parse JSON from HttpURLConnection object

The JSON string will just be the body of the response you get back from the URL you have called. So add this code

...
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(
                            conn.getInputStream()));
String inputLine;
while ((inputLine = in.readLine()) != null) 
    System.out.println(inputLine);
in.close();

That will allow you to see the JSON being returned to the console. The only missing piece you then have is using a JSON library to read that data and provide you with a Java representation.

Here's an example using JSON-LIB

how to convert integer to string?

If you really want to use String:

NSString *number = [[NSString alloc] initWithFormat:@"%d", 123];

But I would recommend using NSNumber:

NSNumber *number = [[NSNumber alloc] initWithInt:123];

Then just add it to the array.

[array addObject:number];

Don't forget to release it after that, since you created it above.

[number release];

Table column sizing

Another option is to apply flex styling at the table row, and add the col-classes to the table header / table data elements:

<table>
  <thead>
    <tr class="d-flex">
      <th class="col-3">3 columns wide header</th>
      <th class="col-sm-5">5 columns wide header</th>
      <th class="col-sm-4">4 columns wide header</th>
    </tr>
  </thead>
  <tbody>
    <tr class="d-flex">
      <td class="col-3">3 columns wide content</th>
      <td class="col-sm-5">5 columns wide content</th>
      <td class="col-sm-4">4 columns wide content</th>
    </tr>
  </tbody>
</table>

How to set the default value of an attribute on a Laravel model

The other answers are not working for me - they may be outdated. This is what I used as my solution for auto setting an attribute:

/**
 * The "booting" method of the model.
 *
 * @return void
 */
protected static function boot()
{
    parent::boot();

    // auto-sets values on creation
    static::creating(function ($query) {
        $query->is_voicemail = $query->is_voicemail ?? true;
    });
}

CSS text-overflow: ellipsis; not working?

text-overflow:ellipsis; only works when the following are true:

The element's width must be constrained in px (pixels). Width in % (percentage) won't work.
The element must have overflow:hidden and white-space:nowrap set.

The reason you're having problems here is because the width of your a element isn't constrained. You do have a width setting, but because the element is set to display:inline (i.e. the default) it is ignoring it, and nothing else is constraining its width either.

You can fix this by doing one of the following:

Set the element to display:inline-block or display:block (probably the former, but depends on your layout needs).
Set one of its container elements to display:block and give that element a fixed width or max-width.
Set the element to float:left or float:right (probably the former, but again, either should have the same effect as far as the ellipsis is concerned).

I'd suggest display:inline-block, since this will have the minimum collateral impact on your layout; it works very much like the display:inline that it's using currently as far as the layout is concerned, but feel free to experiment with the other points as well; I've tried to give as much info as possible to help you understand how these things interact together; a large part of understanding CSS is about understanding how various styles work together.

Here's a snippet with your code, with a display:inline-block added, to show how close you were.

_x000D_

.app a {_x000D_
  height: 18px;_x000D_
  width: 140px;_x000D_
  padding: 0;_x000D_

C# with MySQL INSERT parameters

Use the AddWithValue method:

comm.Parameters.AddWithValue("@person", "Myname");
comm.Parameters.AddWithValue("@address", "Myaddress");

Memory address of an object in C#

There's a better solution if you don't really need the memory address but rather some means of uniquely identifying a managed object:

using System.Runtime.CompilerServices;

public static class Extensions
{
    private static readonly ConditionalWeakTable<object, RefId> _ids = new ConditionalWeakTable<object, RefId>();

    public static Guid GetRefId<T>(this T obj) where T: class
    {
        if (obj == null)
            return default(Guid);

        return _ids.GetOrCreateValue(obj).Id;
    }

    private class RefId
    {
        public Guid Id { get; } = Guid.NewGuid();
    }
}

This is thread safe and uses weak references internally, so you won't have memory leaks.

You can use any key generation means that you like. I'm using Guid.NewGuid() here because it's simple and thread safe.

Update

I went ahead and created a Nuget package Overby.Extensions.Attachments that contains some extension methods for attaching objects to other objects. There's an extension called GetReferenceId() that effectively does what the code in this answer shows.

how to delete installed library form react native project

I followed the following steps:--

react-native unlink <lib name> -- this command has done the unlinking of the library from both platforms.
react-native uninstall <lib name> -- this has uninstalled the library from the node modules and its dependencies
Manually removed the library name from package.json -- somehow the --save command was not working for me to remove the library declaration from package.json.

After this I have manually deleted the empty react-native library from the node_modules folder

Trim spaces from start and end of string

Note: As of 2015, all major browsers (including IE>=9) support String.prototype.trim(). This means that for most use cases simply doing str.trim() is the best way of achieving what the question asks.

Steven Levithan analyzed many different implementation of trim in Javascript in terms of performance.

His recommendation is:

function trim1 (str) {
    return str.replace(/^\s\s*/, '').replace(/\s\s*$/, '');
}

for "general-purpose implementation which is fast cross-browser", and

function trim11 (str) {
    str = str.replace(/^\s+/, '');
    for (var i = str.length - 1; i >= 0; i--) {
        if (/\S/.test(str.charAt(i))) {
            str = str.substring(0, i + 1);
            break;
        }
    }
    return str;
}

"if you want to handle long strings exceptionally fast in all browsers".

Is it possible to save HTML page as PDF using JavaScript or jquery?

It is much easier and reliable to convert html to pdf server side. We are using Google Puppeteer. It is well maintained with wrappers for any server side language of your choosing. Puppeteer uses headless Chrome to generate screenshots and/or PDF files. It will save you a LOT of headache especially if you need to generate complex PDF files with tables, images, graphs, multiple pages and so

how to check if object already exists in a list

It depends on the needs of the specific situation. For example, the dictionary approach would be quite good assuming:

The list is relatively stable (not a lot of inserts/deletions, which dictionaries are not optimized for)
The list is quite large (otherwise the overhead of the dictionary is pointless).

If the above are not true for your situation, just use the method Any():

Item wonderIfItsPresent = ...
bool containsItem = myList.Any(item => item.UniqueProperty == wonderIfItsPresent.UniqueProperty);

This will enumerate through the list until it finds a match, or until it reaches the end.

What does servletcontext.getRealPath("/") mean and when should I use it

Introduction

The ServletContext#getRealPath() is intented to convert a web content path (the path in the expanded WAR folder structure on the server's disk file system) to an absolute disk file system path.

The "/" represents the web content root. I.e. it represents the web folder as in the below project structure:

YourWebProject
 |-- src
 |    :
 |
 |-- web
 |    |-- META-INF
 |    |    `-- MANIFEST.MF
 |    |-- WEB-INF
 |    |    `-- web.xml
 |    |-- index.jsp
 |    `-- login.jsp
 :

So, passing the "/" to getRealPath() would return you the absolute disk file system path of the /web folder of the expanded WAR file of the project. Something like /path/to/server/work/folder/some.war/ which you should be able to further use in File or FileInputStream.

Note that most starters don't seem to see/realize that you can actually pass the whole web content path to it and that they often use

String absolutePathToIndexJSP = servletContext.getRealPath("/") + "index.jsp"; // Wrong!

or even

String absolutePathToIndexJSP = servletContext.getRealPath("") + "index.jsp"; // Wronger!

instead of

String absolutePathToIndexJSP = servletContext.getRealPath("/index.jsp"); // Right!

Don't ever write files in there

Also note that even though you can write new files into it using FileOutputStream, all changes (e.g. new files or edited files) will get lost whenever the WAR is redeployed; with the simple reason that all those changes are not contained in the original WAR file. So all starters who are attempting to save uploaded files in there are doing it wrong.

Moreover, getRealPath() will always return null or a completely unexpected path when the server isn't configured to expand the WAR file into the disk file system, but instead into e.g. memory as a virtual file system.

`getRealPath()` is unportable; you'd better never use it

Use getRealPath() carefully. There are actually no sensible real world use cases for it. Based on my 20 years of Java EE experience, there has always been another way which is much better and more portable than getRealPath().

If all you actually need is to get an InputStream of the web resource, better use ServletContext#getResourceAsStream() instead, this will work regardless of the way how the WAR is expanded. So, if you for example want an InputStream of index.jsp, then do not do:

InputStream input = new FileInputStream(servletContext.getRealPath("/index.jsp")); // Wrong!

But instead do:

InputStream input = servletContext.getResourceAsStream("/index.jsp"); // Right!

Or if you intend to obtain a list of all available web resource paths, use ServletContext#getResourcePaths() instead.

Set<String> resourcePaths = servletContext.getResourcePaths("/");

You can obtain an individual resource as URL via ServletContext#getResource(). This will return null when the resource does not exist.

URL resource = servletContext.getResource(path);

Or if you intend to save an uploaded file, or create a temporary file, then see the below "See also" links.

'pip' is not recognized as an internal or external command

I think from Python 2.7.9 and higher pip comes pre installed and it will be in your scripts folder.

So you have to add the "scripts" folder to the path. Mine is installed in C:\Python27\Scripts. Check yours to see what your path is so that you can alter the below accordingly. Then go to PowerShell, paste the below code in PowerShell and hit Enter key. After that, reboot and your issue will be resolved.

[Environment]::SetEnvironmentVariable("Path", "$env:Path;C:\Python27\Scripts", "User")

get a utf8 to base64 convertor and convert the "svg" string to:

'ls' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file

I'm fairly certain that the ls command is for Linux, not Windows (I'm assuming you're using Windows as you referred to cmd, which is the command line for the Windows OS).

You should use dir instead, which is the Windows equivalent of ls.

Edit (since this post seems to be getting so many views :) ):

You can't use ls on cmd as it's not shipped with Windows, but you can use it on other terminal programs (such as GitBash). Note, ls might work on some FTP servers if the servers are linux based and the FTP is being used from cmd.

dir on Windows is similar to ls. To find out the various options available, just do dir/?.

If you really want to use ls, you could install 3rd party tools to allow you to run unix commands on Windows. Such a program is Microsoft Windows Subsystem for Linux (link to docs).

Editable 'Select' element

Similar to answer above but without the absolute positioning:

<select style="width: 200px; float: left;" onchange="this.nextElementSibling.value=this.value">
    <option></option>
    <option>1</option>
    <option>2</option>
    <option>3</option> 
</select>
<input style="width: 185px; margin-left: -199px; margin-top: 1px; border: none; float: left;"/>

So create a input box and put it over the top of the combobox

Uploading file using POST request in Node.js

Leonid Beschastny's answer works but I also had to convert ArrayBuffer to Buffer that is used in the Node's request module. After uploading file to the server I had it in the same format that comes from the HTML5 FileAPI (I'm using Meteor). Full code below - maybe it will be helpful for others.

function toBuffer(ab) {
  var buffer = new Buffer(ab.byteLength);
  var view = new Uint8Array(ab);
  for (var i = 0; i < buffer.length; ++i) {
    buffer[i] = view[i];
  }
  return buffer;
}

var req = request.post(url, function (err, resp, body) {
  if (err) {
    console.log('Error!');
  } else {
    console.log('URL: ' + body);
  }
});
var form = req.form();
form.append('file', toBuffer(file.data), {
  filename: file.name,
  contentType: file.type
});

Parsing JSON array into java.util.List with Gson

Given you start with mapping.get("servers").getAsJsonArray(), if you have access to Guava Streams, you can do the below one-liner:

List<String> servers = Streams.stream(jsonArray.iterator())
                              .map(je -> je.getAsString())
                              .collect(Collectors.toList());

Note StreamSupport won't be able to work on JsonElement type, so it is insufficient.

Why do python lists have pop() but not push()

Push and Pop make sense in terms of the metaphor of a stack of plates or trays in a cafeteria or buffet, specifically the ones in type of holder that has a spring underneath so the top plate is (more or less... in theory) in the same place no matter how many plates are under it.

If you remove a tray, the weight on the spring is a little less and the stack "pops" up a little, if you put the plate back, it "push"es the stack down. So if you think about the list as a stack and the last element as being on top, then you shouldn't have much confusion.

Java IOException "Too many open files"

Although in most general cases the error is quite clearly that file handles have not been closed, I just encountered an instance with JDK7 on Linux that well... is sufficiently ****ed up to explain here.

The program opened a FileOutputStream (fos), a BufferedOutputStream (bos) and a DataOutputStream (dos). After writing to the dataoutputstream, the dos was closed and I thought everything went fine.

Internally however, the dos, tried to flush the bos, which returned a Disk Full error. That exception was eaten by the DataOutputStream, and as a consequence the underlying bos was not closed, hence the fos was still open.

At a later stage that file was then renamed from (something with a .tmp) to its real name. Thereby, the java file descriptor trackers lost track of the original .tmp, yet it was still open !

To solve this, I had to first flush the DataOutputStream myself, retrieve the IOException and close the FileOutputStream myself.

I hope this helps someone.

Why can't I find SQL Server Management Studio after installation?

It appears that SQL Server 2008 R2 can be downloaded with or without the management tools. I honestly have NO IDEA why someone would not want the management tools. But either way, the options are here:

http://www.microsoft.com/sqlserver/en/us/editions/express.aspx

and the one for 64 bit WITH the management tools (management studio) is here:

http://www.microsoft.com/sqlserver/en/us/editions/express.aspx

From the first link I presented, the 3rd and 4th include the management studio for 32 and 64 bit respectively.

Checking for NULL pointer in C/C++

Frankly, I don't see why it matters. Either one is quite clear and anyone moderately experienced with C or C++ should understand both. One comment, though:

If you plan to recognize the error and not continue executing the function (i.e., you are going to throw an exception or return an error code immediately), you should make it a guard clause:

int f(void* p)
{
    if (!p) { return -1; }

    // p is not null
    return 0;
}

This way, you avoid "arrow code."

Time stamp in the C programming language

U can try routines in c time library (time.h). Plus take a look at the clock() in the same lib. It gives the clock ticks since the prog has started. But you can save its value before the operation you want to concentrate on, and then after that operation capture the cliock ticks again and find the difference between then to get the time difference.

Is there a max size for POST parameter content?

Yes there is 2MB max and it can be increased by configuration change like this. If your POST body is not in form of multipart file then you might need to add the max-http-post configuration for tomcat in the application yml configuration file.

Increase max size of each multipart file to 10MB and total payload size of 100MB max

    servlet:
      multipart:max-file-size: 10MB
      multipart:max-request-size: 100MB

Setting max size of post requests which might just be the formdata in string format to ~10 MB

 server:
    tomcat:
        max-http-post-size: 100000000 # max-http-form-post-size: 10MB for new version

You might need to add this for the latest sprintboot version ->

MongoDB query multiple collections at once

Here is answer for your question.

db.getCollection('users').aggregate([
    {$match : {admin : 1}},
    {$lookup: {from: "posts",localField: "_id",foreignField: "owner_id",as: "posts"}},
    {$project : {
            posts : { $filter : {input : "$posts"  , as : "post", cond : { $eq : ['$$post.via' , 'facebook'] } } },
            admin : 1

        }}

])

Or either you can go with mongodb group option.

db.getCollection('users').aggregate([
    {$match : {admin : 1}},
    {$lookup: {from: "posts",localField: "_id",foreignField: "owner_id",as: "posts"}},
    {$unwind : "$posts"},
    {$match : {"posts.via":"facebook"}},
    { $group : {
            _id : "$_id",
            posts : {$push : "$posts"}
    }}
])

how to use ng-option to set default value of select element

If anyone is running into the default value occasionally being not populated on the page in Chrome, IE 10/11, Firefox -- try adding this attribute to your input/select field checking for the populated variable in the HTML, like so:

<input data-ng-model="vm.x" data-ng-if="vm.x !== '' && vm.x !== undefined && vm.x !== null" />

Angular CLI Error: The serve command requires to be run in an Angular project, but a project definition could not be found

This error occurs when the project you are running is not an angular project. Though you have downloaded an angular project but have not installed all the dependencies thats why the ng serve command is not available to you.

Just navigate to the path where the project is stored and use the command

npm install

(Note - Node.js should be installed in your system and if you are using Angular 2 or above angular cli should also be installed in your system before you run this command. To check if the node.js is installed n your system 1) Open cmd (any path- as node should be globally installed in your system) 2) use command

node -v
npm -v

to get node and npm version)

One more important thing: The angular cli version won't make a difference if the version installed in your system is higher than the version required by the project. It will give a warning but you can ignore the warning.

How do you easily create empty matrices javascript?

This is an exact fix to your problem, but I would advise against initializing the matrix with a default value that represents '0' or 'undefined', as Arrays in javascript are just regular objects, so you wind up wasting effort. If you want to default the cells to some meaningful value, then this snippet will work well, but if you want an uninitialized matrix, don't use this version:

/**
* Generates a matrix (ie: 2-D Array) with: 
* 'm' columns, 
* 'n' rows, 
* every cell defaulting to 'd';
*/
function Matrix(m, n, d){
    var mat = Array.apply(null, new Array(m)).map(
        Array.prototype.valueOf,
        Array.apply(null, new Array(n)).map(
            function() {
               return d;
            }
        )
    );
    return mat;
}

Usage:

< Matrix(3,2,'dobon');
> Array [ Array['dobon', 'dobon'], Array['dobon', 'dobon'], Array['dobon', 'dobon'] ]

If you would rather just create an uninitialized 2-D Array, then this will be more efficient than unnecessarily initializing every entry:

/**
* Generates a matrix (ie: 2-D Array) with: 
* 'm' columns, 
* 'n' rows, 
* every cell remains 'undefined';
*/
function Matrix(m, n){
    var mat = Array.apply(null, new Array(m)).map(
        Array.prototype.valueOf,
        new Array(n)
    );
    return mat;
}

Usage:

< Matrix(3,2);
> Array [ Array[2], Array[2], Array[2] ]

List all indexes on ElasticSearch server?

I would also recommend doing /_cat/indices which gives a nice human readable list of your indexes.

How to detect the currently pressed key?

Most of these answers are either far too complicated or don't seem to work for me (e.g. System.Windows.Input doesn't seem to exist). Then I found some sample code which works fine: http://www.switchonthecode.com/tutorials/winforms-accessing-mouse-and-keyboard-state

In case the page disappears in the future I am posting the relevant source code below:

using System;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;

namespace MouseKeyboardStateTest
{
  public abstract class Keyboard
  {
    [Flags]
    private enum KeyStates
    {
      None = 0,
      Down = 1,
      Toggled = 2
    }

    [DllImport("user32.dll", CharSet = CharSet.Auto, ExactSpelling = true)]
    private static extern short GetKeyState(int keyCode);

    private static KeyStates GetKeyState(Keys key)
    {
      KeyStates state = KeyStates.None;

      short retVal = GetKeyState((int)key);

      //If the high-order bit is 1, the key is down
      //otherwise, it is up.
      if ((retVal & 0x8000) == 0x8000)
        state |= KeyStates.Down;

      //If the low-order bit is 1, the key is toggled.
      if ((retVal & 1) == 1)
        state |= KeyStates.Toggled;

      return state;
    }

    public static bool IsKeyDown(Keys key)
    { 
      return KeyStates.Down == (GetKeyState(key) & KeyStates.Down);
    }

    public static bool IsKeyToggled(Keys key)
    { 
      return KeyStates.Toggled == (GetKeyState(key) & KeyStates.Toggled);
    }
  }
}

How can I write an anonymous function in Java?

if you mean an anonymous function, and are using a version of Java before Java 8, then in a word, no. (Read about lambda expressions if you use Java 8+)

However, you can implement an interface with a function like so :

Comparator<String> c = new Comparator<String>() {
    int compare(String s, String s2) { ... }
};

and you can use this with inner classes to get an almost-anonymous function :)

Provide an image for WhatsApp link sharing

In case someone is looking for a way to display preview using WhatsApp API, With including the image in your meta tags on your website you would need to set the preview_url=true.

Sending URLs in Text Messages

By default, the mobile WhatsApp application recognizes URLs and makes them clickable. To include a URL preview, include "preview_url": true in the message body and make sure the URL begins with http:// or https://. A hostname is required, IP addresses are not matched.

The majority of the time when you send a URL, whether with a preview or not, the receiver of the message will see a URL that they can click on.

URL previews will only be rendered after one of the following has happened:

The business has sent a message template to the user.
The userinitiates a conversation with a "click to chat" link.
The user adds the business phone number to their address book and initiates a conversation.

Adding timestamp to a filename with mv in BASH

I use this command for simple rotate a file:

mv output.log `date +%F`-output.log

In local folder I have 2019-09-25-output.log

Creating multiline strings in JavaScript

This is one fairly economical approach, at least in terms of the source code:

function s() {
    var args = [],index;
    for (index = 0; index< arguments.length; index++) {
        args.push (arguments [index]);
    }
    return args.join ("\n");
}
console.log (s (
    "This is the first line",
    "and this is the second",
    "finally a third"
));

function s() {return arguments.join ("\n")}

would be nicer of course if the "arguments" property were a proper array.

A second version might use "" to do the join for cases when you want to control the line breaks in a very long string.

ReactJS lifecycle method inside a function Component

Edit: With the introduction of Hooks it is possible to implement a lifecycle kind of behavior as well as the state in the functional Components. Currently

Hooks are a new feature proposal that lets you use state and other React features without writing a class. They are released in React as a part of v16.8.0

useEffect hook can be used to replicate lifecycle behavior, and useState can be used to store state in a function component.

Basic syntax:

useEffect(callbackFunction, [dependentProps]) => cleanupFunction

You can implement your use case in hooks like

const grid = (props) => {
    console.log(props);
    let {skuRules} = props;

    useEffect(() => {
        if(!props.fetched) {
            props.fetchRules();
        }
        console.log('mount it!');
    }, []); // passing an empty array as second argument triggers the callback in useEffect only after the initial render thus replicating `componentDidMount` lifecycle behaviour

    return(
        <Content title="Promotions" breadcrumbs={breadcrumbs} fetched={skuRules.fetched}>
            <Box title="Sku Promotion">
                <ActionButtons buttons={actionButtons} />
                <SkuRuleGrid 
                    data={skuRules.payload}
                    fetch={props.fetchSkuRules}
                />
            </Box>      
        </Content>  
    )
}

useEffect can also return a function that will be run when the component is unmounted. This can be used to unsubscribe to listeners, replicating the behavior of componentWillUnmount:

Eg: componentWillUnmount

useEffect(() => {
    window.addEventListener('unhandledRejection', handler);
    return () => {
       window.removeEventListener('unhandledRejection', handler);
    }
}, [])

To make useEffect conditional on specific events, you may provide it with an array of values to check for changes:

Eg: componentDidUpdate

componentDidUpdate(prevProps, prevState) {
     const { counter } = this.props;
     if (this.props.counter !== prevState.counter) {
      // some action here
     }
}

Hooks Equivalent

useEffect(() => {
     // action here
}, [props.counter]); // checks for changes in the values in this array

If you include this array, make sure to include all values from the component scope that change over time (props, state), or you may end up referencing values from previous renders.

There are some subtleties to using useEffect; check out the API Here.

Before v16.7.0

The property of function components is that they don't have access to Reacts lifecycle functions or the this keyword. You need to extend the React.Component class if you want to use the lifecycle function.

class Grid extends React.Component  {
    constructor(props) {
       super(props)
    }

    componentDidMount () {
        if(!this.props.fetched) {
            this.props.fetchRules();
        }
        console.log('mount it!');
    }
    render() {
    return(
        <Content title="Promotions" breadcrumbs={breadcrumbs} fetched={skuRules.fetched}>
            <Box title="Sku Promotion">
                <ActionButtons buttons={actionButtons} />
                <SkuRuleGrid 
                    data={skuRules.payload}
                    fetch={props.fetchSkuRules}
                />
            </Box>      
        </Content>  
    )
  }
}

Function components are useful when you only want to render your Component without the need of extra logic.

app-release-unsigned.apk is not signed

Always sign your build using your build.gradle DSL script like this:

    android {
    signingConfigs {
        debug {
            storeFile file("debug.keystore")
        }

        myConfig {
            storeFile file("other.keystore")
            storePassword "android"
            keyAlias "androidotherkey"
            keyPassword "android"
        }
    }

    buildTypes {
        bar {
            debuggable true
            jniDebugBuild true
            signingConfig signingConfigs.debug
        }
        foo {
            debuggable false
            jniDebugBuild false
            signingConfig signingConfigs.myConfig
        }
    }
}

Reset MySQL root password using ALTER USER statement after install on Mac

Run these:

$ cd /usr/local/mysql/bin
$ ./mysqladmin -u root password 'password'

Then run

./mysql -u root

It should log in. Now run FLUSH privileges;

Then exit the MySQL console and try logging in. If that doesn't work run these:

$ mysql -u root
mysql> USE mysql;
mysql> UPDATE user SET authentication_string=PASSWORD("XXXXXXX") WHERE User='root';
mysql> FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
mysql> quit

Change xxxxxx to ur new password. Then try logging in again.

Update. See this http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/resetting-permissions.html

It should solve your problem.

If you are on oracle try this

ALTER USER username IDENTIFIED BY password

What is an unsigned char?

As for example usages of unsigned char:

unsigned char is often used in computer graphics, which very often (though not always) assigns a single byte to each colour component. It is common to see an RGB (or RGBA) colour represented as 24 (or 32) bits, each an unsigned char. Since unsigned char values fall in the range [0,255], the values are typically interpreted as:

0 meaning a total lack of a given colour component.
255 meaning 100% of a given colour pigment.

So you would end up with RGB red as (255,0,0) -> (100% red, 0% green, 0% blue).

Why not use a signed char? Arithmetic and bit shifting becomes problematic. As explained already, a signed char's range is essentially shifted by -128. A very simple and naive (mostly unused) method for converting RGB to grayscale is to average all three colour components, but this runs into problems when the values of the colour components are negative. Red (255, 0, 0) averages to (85, 85, 85) when using unsigned char arithmetic. However, if the values were signed chars (127,-128,-128), we would end up with (-99, -99, -99), which would be (29, 29, 29) in our unsigned char space, which is incorrect.

Python way to clone a git repository

For python 3

First install module:

pip3 install gitpython

and later, code it :)

import os
from git.repo.base import Repo
Repo.clone_from("https://github.com/*****", "folderToSave")

I hope this helps you

Disable browsers vertical and horizontal scrollbars

In modern versions of IE (IE10 and above), scrollbars can be hidden using the -ms-overflow-style property.

html {
     -ms-overflow-style: none;
}

In Chrome, scrollbars can be styled:

::-webkit-scrollbar {
    display: none;
}

This is very useful if you want to use the 'default' body scrolling in a web application, which is considerably faster than overflow-y: scroll.

Scikit-learn train_test_split with indices

You can use pandas dataframes or series as Julien said but if you want to restrict your-self to numpy you can pass an additional array of indices:

from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split
import numpy as np
n_samples, n_features, n_classes = 10, 2, 2
data = np.random.randn(n_samples, n_features)  # 10 training examples
labels = np.random.randint(n_classes, size=n_samples)  # 10 labels
indices = np.arange(n_samples)
x1, x2, y1, y2, idx1, idx2 = train_test_split(
    data, labels, indices, test_size=0.2)

how to make a new line in a jupyter markdown cell

Just add <br> where you would like to make the new line.

$S$: a set of shops
<br>
$I$: a set of items M wants to get

Because jupyter notebook markdown cell is a superset of HTML.
http://jupyter-notebook.readthedocs.io/en/latest/examples/Notebook/Working%20With%20Markdown%20Cells.html

Note that newlines using <br> does not persist when exporting or saving the notebook to a pdf (using "Download as > PDF via LaTeX"). It is probably treating each <br> as a space.

How do I finish the merge after resolving my merge conflicts?

The next steps after resolving the conflicts manually are:-

git add .
git status (this will show you which commands are necessary to continue automatic merge procedure)
[command git suggests, e.g. git merge --continue, git cherry-pick --continue, git rebase --continue]

Remove Item from ArrayList

String[] mString = new String[] {"B", "D", "F"};

for (int j = 0; j < mString.length-1; j++) {
        List_Of_Array.remove(mString[j]);
}

What does 'wb' mean in this code, using Python?

File mode, write and binary. Since you are writing a .jpg file, it looks fine.

But if you supposed to read that jpg file you need to use 'rb'

More info

On Windows, 'b' appended to the mode opens the file in binary mode, so there are also modes like 'rb', 'wb', and 'r+b'. Python on Windows makes a distinction between text and binary files; the end-of-line characters in text files are automatically altered slightly when data is read or written. This behind-the-scenes modification to file data is fine for ASCII text files, but it’ll corrupt binary data like that in JPEG or EXE files.

Android Studio is slow (how to speed up)?

I followed this post and it worked great for me.

EDIT:

Following tips have been mentioned in the above post.

In gradle.properties, put this:

org.gradle.daemon=true
org.gradle.jvmargs=-Xmx2048m -XX:MaxPermSize=512m -XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8
org.gradle.parallel=true
org.gradle.configureondemand=true

And in build.gradle, put this (Note this will disable lint check):

tasks.whenTaskAdded { task ->
    if (task.name.equals("lint")) {
        task.enabled = false
    }
}

Which are more performant, CTE or temporary tables?

Temp tables are always on disk - so as long as your CTE can be held in memory, it would most likely be faster (like a table variable, too).

But then again, if the data load of your CTE (or temp table variable) gets too big, it'll be stored on disk, too, so there's no big benefit.

In general, I prefer a CTE over a temp table since it's gone after I used it. I don't need to think about dropping it explicitly or anything.

So, no clear answer in the end, but personally, I would prefer CTE over temp tables.

Description for event id from source cannot be found

If you open the Event Log viewer before the event source is created, for example while installing a service, you'll get that error message. You don't need to restart the OS: you simply have to close and open the event viewer.

NOTE: I don't provide a custom messages file. The creation of the event source uses the default configuration, as shown on Matt's answer.

Pandas index column title or name

df.index.name should do the trick.

Python has a dir function that let's you query object attributes. dir(df.index) was helpful here.

with open("test.txt") as r:
  text = r.read().replace("THIS", "THAT")
with open("test.txt", "w") as w:
  w.write(text)

Scanner is never closed

According to the Javadoc of Scanner, it closes the stream when you call it's close method. Generally speaking, the code that creates a resource is also responsible for closing it. System.in was not instantiated by by your code, but by the VM. So in this case it's safe to not close the Scanner, ignore the warning and add a comment why you ignore it. The VM will take care of closing it if needed.

(Offtopic: instead of "amount", the word "number" would be more appropriate to use for a number of players. English is not my native language (I'm Dutch) and I used to make exactly the same mistake.)

How do I tokenize a string in C++?

If you're using C++ ranges - the full ranges-v3 library, not the limited functionality accepted into C++20 - you could do it this way:

auto results = str | ranges::views::tokenize(" ",1);

... and this is lazily-evaluated, i.e. O(1) time and space. You can alternatively set a vector to this range:

auto results = str | ranges::views::tokenize(" ",1) | to<std::vector>();

this will take O(m) space and O(n) time if str has n characters making up m words.

See also the library's own tokenization example, here.

How to prevent 'query timeout expired'? (SQLNCLI11 error '80040e31')

Turns out that the post (or rather the whole table) was locked by the very same connection that I tried to update the post with.

I had a opened record set of the post that was created by:

Set RecSet = Conn.Execute()

This type of recordset is supposed to be read-only and when I was using MS Access as database it did not lock anything. But apparently this type of record set did lock something on MS SQL Server 2012 because when I added these lines of code before executing the UPDATE SQL statement...

RecSet.Close
Set RecSet = Nothing

...everything worked just fine.

So bottom line is to be careful with opened record sets - even if they are read-only they could lock your table from updates.

How can I find the number of elements in an array?

void numel(int array1[100][100])
{
    int count=0;
    for(int i=0;i<100;i++)
    {
        for(int j=0;j<100;j++)
        {
            if(array1[i][j]!='\0') 
            {
                count++;
                //printf("\n%d-%d",array1[i][j],count);
            }
            else 
                break;
        }
    }
    printf("Number of elements=%d",count);
}
int main()
{   
    int r,arr[100][100]={0},c;
    printf("Enter the no. of rows: ");
    scanf("%d",&r);
    printf("\nEnter the no. of columns: ");
    scanf("%d",&c);
    printf("\nEnter the elements: ");
    for(int i=0;i<r;i++)
    {
        for(int j=0;j<c;j++)
        {
            scanf("%d",&arr[i][j]);
        }
    }
    numel(arr);
}

This shows the exact number of elements in matrix irrespective of the array size you mentioned while initilasing(IF that's what you meant)

How to make a <svg> element expand or contract to its parent container?

@robertc has it right, but you also need to notice that svg, #container causes the svg to be scaled exponentially for anything but 100% (once for #container and once for svg).

In other words, if I applied 50% h/w to both elements, it's actually 50% of 50%, or .5 * .5, which equals .25, or 25% scale.

One selector works fine when used as @robertc suggests.

svg {
  width:50%;
  height:50%;
}

What is “2's Complement”?

I wonder if it could be explained any better than the Wikipedia article.

The basic problem that you are trying to solve with two's complement representation is the problem of storing negative integers.

First, consider an unsigned integer stored in 4 bits. You can have the following

These are unsigned because there is no indication of whether they are negative or positive.

Sign Magnitude and Excess Notation

To store negative numbers you can try a number of things. First, you can use sign magnitude notation which assigns the first bit as a sign bit to represent +/- and the remaining bits to represent the magnitude. So using 4 bits again and assuming that 1 means - and 0 means + then you have

0000 = +0
0001 = +1
0010 = +2
...
1000 = -0
1001 = -1
1111 = -7

So, you see the problem there? We have positive and negative 0. The bigger problem is adding and subtracting binary numbers. The circuits to add and subtract using sign magnitude will be very complex.

What is

0010
1001 +
----

Another system is excess notation. You can store negative numbers, you get rid of the two zeros problem but addition and subtraction remains difficult.

So along comes two's complement. Now you can store positive and negative integers and perform arithmetic with relative ease. There are a number of methods to convert a number into two's complement. Here's one.

Convert Decimal to Two's Complement

Convert the number to binary (ignore the sign for now) e.g. 5 is 0101 and -5 is 0101
If the number is a positive number then you are done. e.g. 5 is 0101 in binary using two's complement notation.
If the number is negative then

3.1 find the complement (invert 0's and 1's) e.g. -5 is 0101 so finding the complement is 1010

3.2 Add 1 to the complement 1010 + 1 = 1011. Therefore, -5 in two's complement is 1011.

So, what if you wanted to do 2 + (-3) in binary? 2 + (-3) is -1. What would you have to do if you were using sign magnitude to add these numbers? 0010 + 1101 = ?

Using two's complement consider how easy it would be.

 2  =  0010
 -3 =  1101 +
 -------------
 -1 =  1111

Converting Two's Complement to Decimal

Converting 1111 to decimal:

The number starts with 1, so it's negative, so we find the complement of 1111, which is 0000.
Add 1 to 0000, and we obtain 0001.
Convert 0001 to decimal, which is 1.
Apply the sign = -1.

Tada!

Permanently adding a file path to sys.path in Python

This way worked for me:

adding the path that you like:

export PYTHONPATH=$PYTHONPATH:/path/you/want/to/add

checking: you can run 'export' cmd and check the output or you can check it using this cmd:

python -c "import sys; print(sys.path)"

Do subclasses inherit private fields?

No. They don't inherit it.

The fact some other class may use it indirectly says nothing about inheritance, but about encapsulation.

For instance:

class Some { 
   private int count; 
   public void increment() { 
      count++;
   }
   public String toString() { 
       return Integer.toString( count );
   }
}

class UseIt { 
    void useIt() { 
        Some s = new Some();
        s.increment();
        s.increment();
        s.increment();
        int v = Integer.parseInt( s.toString() );
        // hey, can you say you inherit it?
     }
}

You can also get the value of count inside UseIt via reflection. It doesn't means, you inherit it.

UPDATE

Even though the value is there, it is not inherited by the subclass.

For instance a subclass defined as:

class SomeOther extends Some { 
    private int count = 1000;
    @Override
    public void increment() { 
        super.increment();
        count *= 10000;
    }
}

class UseIt { 
    public static void main( String ... args ) { 
        s = new SomeOther();
        s.increment();
        s.increment();
        s.increment();
        v = Integer.parseInt( s.toString() );
        // what is the value of v?           
     }
}

This is exactly the same situation as the first example. The attribute count is hidden and not inherited by the subclass at all. Still, as DigitalRoss points out, the value is there, but not by means on inheritance.

Put it this way. If your father is wealthy and gives you a credit card, you can still buy thing with his money, but doesn't mean you have inherited all that money, does it?

Other update

It is very interesting though, to know why the attribute is there.

I frankly don't have the exact term to describe it, but it's the JVM and the way it works that loads also the "not inherited" parent definition.

We could actually change the parent and the subclass will still work.

For instance:

//A.java
class A {
   private int i;
   public String toString() { return ""+ i; }
}
// B.java
class B extends A {}
// Main.java
class Main {
   public static void main( String [] args ) {
      System.out.println( new B().toString() );
    }
}
// Compile all the files
javac A.java B.java Main.java
// Run Main
java Main
// Outout is 0 as expected as B is using the A 'toString' definition
0

// Change A.java
class A {
   public String toString() {
      return "Nothing here";
   }
}
// Recompile ONLY A.java
javac A.java
java Main
// B wasn't modified and yet it shows a different behaviour, this is not due to 
// inheritance but the way Java loads the class
Output: Nothing here

I guess the exact term could be found here: The JavaTM Virtual Machine Specification

Temporarily switch working copy to a specific Git commit

In addition to the other answers here showing you how to git checkout <the-hash-you-want> it's worth knowing you can switch back to where you were using:

git checkout @{-1}

This is often more convenient than:

git checkout what-was-that-original-branch-called-again-question-mark

As you might anticipate, git checkout @{-2} will take you back to the branch you were at two git checkouts ago, and similarly for other numbers. If you can remember where you were for bigger numbers, you should get some kind of medal for that.

Sadly for productivity, git checkout @{1} does not take you to the branch you will be on in future, which is a shame.

How do I return clean JSON from a WCF Service?

This is accomplished in web.config for your webservice. Set the bindingBehavior to <webHttp> and you will see the clean JSON. The extra "[d]" is set by the default behavior which you need to overwrite.

See in addition this blogpost: http://blog.clauskonrad.net/2010/11/how-to-expose-json-endpoint-from-wcf.html

std::string length() and size() member functions

As per the documentation, these are just synonyms. size() is there to be consistent with other STL containers (like vector, map, etc.) and length() is to be consistent with most peoples' intuitive notion of character strings. People usually talk about a word, sentence or paragraph's length, not its size, so length() is there to make things more readable.

Looping through a DataTable

If you want to change the contents of each and every cell in a datatable then we need to Create another Datatable and bind it as follows using "Import Row". If we don't create another table it will throw an Exception saying "Collection was Modified".

Consider the following code.

//New Datatable created which will have updated cells
DataTable dtUpdated = new DataTable();

//This gives similar schema to the new datatable
dtUpdated = dtReports.Clone();
foreach (DataRow row in dtReports.Rows)
{
    for (int i = 0; i < dtReports.Columns.Count; i++)
    {
        string oldVal = row[i].ToString();
        string newVal = "{"+oldVal;
        row[i] = newVal;
    }
    dtUpdated.ImportRow(row); 
}

This will have all the cells preceding with Paranthesis({)

How do I display a decimal value to 2 decimal places?

The top-rated answer describes a method for formatting the string representation of the decimal value, and it works.

However, if you actually want to change the precision saved to the actual value, you need to write something like the following:

public static class PrecisionHelper
{
    public static decimal TwoDecimalPlaces(this decimal value)
    {
        // These first lines eliminate all digits past two places.
        var timesHundred = (int) (value * 100);
        var removeZeroes = timesHundred / 100m;

        // In this implementation, I don't want to alter the underlying
        // value.  As such, if it needs greater precision to stay unaltered,
        // I return it.
        if (removeZeroes != value)
            return value;

        // Addition and subtraction can reliably change precision.  
        // For two decimal values A and B, (A + B) will have at least as 
        // many digits past the decimal point as A or B.
        return removeZeroes + 0.01m - 0.01m;
    }
}

An example unit test:

[Test]
public void PrecisionExampleUnitTest()
{
    decimal a = 500m;
    decimal b = 99.99m;
    decimal c = 123.4m;
    decimal d = 10101.1000000m;
    decimal e = 908.7650m

    Assert.That(a.TwoDecimalPlaces().ToString(CultureInfo.InvariantCulture),
        Is.EqualTo("500.00"));

    Assert.That(b.TwoDecimalPlaces().ToString(CultureInfo.InvariantCulture),
        Is.EqualTo("99.99"));

    Assert.That(c.TwoDecimalPlaces().ToString(CultureInfo.InvariantCulture),
        Is.EqualTo("123.40"));

    Assert.That(d.TwoDecimalPlaces().ToString(CultureInfo.InvariantCulture),
        Is.EqualTo("10101.10"));

    // In this particular implementation, values that can't be expressed in
    // two decimal places are unaltered, so this remains as-is.
    Assert.That(e.TwoDecimalPlaces().ToString(CultureInfo.InvariantCulture),
        Is.EqualTo("908.7650"));
}

Numpy converting array from float to strings

This is probably slower than what you want, but you can do:

>>> tostring = vectorize(lambda x: str(x))
>>> numpy.where(tostring(phis).astype('float64') != phis)
(array([], dtype=int64),)

It looks like it rounds off the values when it converts to str from float64, but this way you can customize the conversion however you like.

git command to move a folder inside another

I had a similar problem with git mv where I wanted to move the contents of one folder into an existing folder, and ended up with this "simple" script:

pushd common; for f in $(git ls-files); do newdir="../include/$(dirname $f)"; mkdir -p $newdir; git mv $f $newdir/$(basename "$f"); done; popd

Explanation

git ls-files: Find all files (in the common folder) checked into git
newdir="../include/$(dirname $f)"; mkdir -p $newdir;: Make a new folder inside the include folder, with the same directory structure as common
git mv $f $newdir/$(basename "$f"): Move the file into the newly created folder

The reason for doing this is that git seems to have problems moving files into existing folders, and it will also fail if you try to move a file into a non-existing folder (hence mkdir -p).

The nice thing about this approach is that it only touches files that are already checked in to git. By simply using git mv to move an entire folder, and the folder contains unstaged changes, git will not know what to do.

After moving the files you might want to clean the repository to remove any remaining unstaged changes - just remember to dry-run first!

git clean -fd -n

How to display the first few characters of a string in Python?

Since there is a delimiter, you should use that instead of worrying about how long the md5 is.

>>> s = "416d76b8811b0ddae2fdad8f4721ddbe|d4f656ee006e248f2f3a8a93a8aec5868788b927|12a5f648928f8e0b5376d2cc07de8e4cbf9f7ccbadb97d898373f85f0a75c47f"
>>> md5sum, delim, rest = s.partition('|')
>>> md5sum
'416d76b8811b0ddae2fdad8f4721ddbe'

Alternatively

>>> md5sum, sha1sum, sha5sum = s.split('|')
>>> md5sum
'416d76b8811b0ddae2fdad8f4721ddbe'
>>> sha1sum
'd4f656ee006e248f2f3a8a93a8aec5868788b927'
>>> sha5sum
'12a5f648928f8e0b5376d2cc07de8e4cbf9f7ccbadb97d898373f85f0a75c47f'

How can I create objects while adding them into a vector?

Question 1:

   vectorOfGamers.push_back(Player)

This is problematic because you cannot directly push a class name into a vector. You can either push an object of class into the vector or push reference or pointer to class type into the vector. For example:

vectorOfGamers.push_back(Player(name, id)) 
  //^^assuming name and id are parameters to the vector, call Player constructor
  //^^In other words, push `instance`  of Player class into vector

Question 2:

These 3 classes derives from Gamer. Can I create vector to hold objects of Dealer, Bot and Player at the same time? How do I do that?

Yes you can. You can create a vector of pointers that points to the base class Gamer. A good choice is to use a vector of smart_pointer, therefore, you do not need to manage pointer memory by yourself. Since the other three classes are derived from Gamer, based on polymorphism, you can assign derived class objects to base class pointers. You may find more information from this post: std::vector of objects / pointers / smart pointers to pass objects (buss error: 10)?

Truncating Text in PHP?

The obvious thing to do is read the documentation.

But to help: substr($str, $start, $end);

$str is your text

$start is the character index to begin at. In your case, it is likely 0 which means the very beginning.

$end is where to truncate at. Suppose you wanted to end at 15 characters, for example. You would write it like this:

<?php

$text = "long text that should be truncated";
echo substr($text, 0, 15);

?>

and you would get this:

long text that

makes sense?

EDIT

The link you gave is a function to find the last white space after chopping text to a desired length so you don't cut off in the middle of a word. However, it is missing one important thing - the desired length to be passed to the function instead of always assuming you want it to be 25 characters. So here's the updated version:

function truncate($text, $chars = 25) {
    if (strlen($text) <= $chars) {
        return $text;
    }
    $text = $text." ";
    $text = substr($text,0,$chars);
    $text = substr($text,0,strrpos($text,' '));
    $text = $text."...";
    return $text;
}

So in your case you would paste this function into the functions.php file and call it like this in your page:

$post = the_post();
echo truncate($post, 100);

This will chop your post down to the last occurrence of a white space before or equal to 100 characters. Obviously you can pass any number instead of 100. Whatever you need.

Sort a list of lists with a custom compare function

>>> l = [list(range(i, i+4)) for i in range(10,1,-1)]
>>> l
[[10, 11, 12, 13], [9, 10, 11, 12], [8, 9, 10, 11], [7, 8, 9, 10], [6, 7, 8, 9], [5, 6, 7, 8], [4, 5, 6, 7], [3, 4, 5, 6], [2, 3, 4, 5]]
>>> sorted(l, key=sum)
[[2, 3, 4, 5], [3, 4, 5, 6], [4, 5, 6, 7], [5, 6, 7, 8], [6, 7, 8, 9], [7, 8, 9, 10], [8, 9, 10, 11], [9, 10, 11, 12], [10, 11, 12, 13]]

The above works. Are you doing something different?

Notice that your key function is just sum; there's no need to write it explicitly.

Checking for duplicate strings in JavaScript array

You could use reduce:

const arr = ["q", "w", "w", "e", "i", "u", "r"]
arr.reduce((acc, cur) => { 
  if(acc[cur]) {
    acc.duplicates.push(cur)
  } else {
    acc[cur] = true //anything could go here
  }
}, { duplicates: [] })

Result would look like this:

{ ...Non Duplicate Values, duplicates: ["w"] }

That way you can do whatever you want with the duplicate values!

div with dynamic min-height based on browser window height

As mentioned elsewhere, the CSS function calc() can work nicely here. It is now mostly supported. You could use like:

.container
{
    min-height: 70%;
    min-height: -webkit-calc(100% - 300px);
    min-height: -moz-calc(100% - 300px);
    min-height: calc(100% - 300px);
}

How do I convert a decimal to an int in C#?

You can't.

Well, of course you could, however an int (System.Int32) is not big enough to hold every possible decimal value.

That means if you cast a decimal that's larger than int.MaxValue you will overflow, and if the decimal is smaller than int.MinValue, it will underflow.

What happens when you under/overflow? One of two things. If your build is unchecked (i.e., the CLR doesn't care if you do), your application will continue after the value over/underflows, but the value in the int will not be what you expected. This can lead to intermittent bugs and may be hard to fix. You'll end up your application in an unknown state which may result in your application corrupting whatever important data its working on. Not good.

If your assembly is checked (properties->build->advanced->check for arithmetic overflow/underflow or the /checked compiler option), your code will throw an exception when an under/overflow occurs. This is probably better than not; however the default for assemblies is not to check for over/underflow.

The real question is "what are you trying to do?" Without knowing your requirements, nobody can tell you what you should do in this case, other than the obvious: DON'T DO IT.

If you specifically do NOT care, the answers here are valid. However, you should communicate your understanding that an overflow may occur and that it doesn't matter by wrapping your cast code in an unchecked block

unchecked
{
  // do your conversions that may underflow/overflow here
}

That way people coming behind you understand you don't care, and if in the future someone changes your builds to /checked, your code won't break unexpectedly.

If all you want to do is drop the fractional portion of the number, leaving the integral part, you can use Math.Truncate.

decimal actual = 10.5M;
decimal expected = 10M;
Assert.AreEqual(expected, Math.Truncate(actual));

Excel function to get first word from sentence in other cell

Generic solution extracting the first "n" words of refcell string into a new string of "x" number of characters

=LEFT(SUBSTITUTE(***refcell***&" "," ",REPT(" ",***x***),***n***),***x***)

Assuming A1 has text string to extract, the 1st word extracted to a 15 character result

=LEFT(SUBSTITUTE(A1&" "," ",REPT(" ",15),1),15)

This would result in "Toronto" being returned to a 15 character string. 1st 2 words extracted to a 30 character result

=LEFT(SUBSTITUTE(A1&" "," ",REPT(" ",30),2),30)

would result in "Toronto is" being returned to a 30 character string

Update Multiple Rows in Entity Framework from a list of ids

I have created a library to batch delete or update records with a round trip on EF Core 5.

Sample code as follows:

await ctx.DeleteRangeAsync(b => b.Price > n || b.AuthorName == "zack yang");

await ctx.BatchUpdate()
.Set(b => b.Price, b => b.Price + 3)
.Set(b=>b.AuthorName,b=>b.Title.Substring(3,2)+b.AuthorName.ToUpper())
.Set(b => b.PubTime, b => DateTime.Now)

FFT in a single C-file

Here is a permissively-licensed C library with a variety of different FFT implementations, each of which is in its own self-contained C-file.

$http get parameters does not work

The 2nd parameter in the get call is a config object. You want something like this:

$http
    .get('accept.php', {
        params: {
            source: link,
            category_id: category
        }
     })
     .success(function (data,status) {
          $scope.info_show = data
     });

See the Arguments section of http://docs.angularjs.org/api/ng.$http for more detail

MomentJS getting JavaScript Date in UTC

Or simply:

Date.now

From MDN documentation:

The Date.now() method returns the number of milliseconds elapsed since January 1, 1970

Available since ECMAScript 5.1

It's the same as was mentioned above (new Date().getTime()), but more shortcutted version.

jQuery click event not working after adding class

.live() is deprecated.When you want to use for delegated elements then use .on() wiht the following syntax

How do I fix an "Invalid license data. Reinstall is required." error in Visual C# 2010 Express?

I have the same problem with Windows 7 Pro. Have tried everything suggested by the Microsoft people, including uninstalling, cleaning up, reinstalling both from the web installer and the VS2010 Express iso - with the same result every time.

To say it's frustrating is an understatement and the disinterest from Microsoft in fixing what appears to be a common problem (you can find lots of search engine 'hits' for the problem, none for a solution) is quite unbelievable.

Since this is virtually a virgin Win7 install, the only conclusion is that MS have broken their licesing checks again (why check for a license on a free product?).

Edit: Following further investigation I have concluded that the advice given by Microsoft is useless and does not attempt to diagnose the problem. It simply assumes a corrupt installation source. I believe that the problem is in fact corrupt permissions/ownership of registry keys. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Licenses and subkeys needs to be owned by SYSTEM with admins having full access. On my affected system the owner cannot be displayed and no permissions are shown when viewed by admin.

I don't have the definitive fix for this so far, as I cannot adequately edit the permissions for the affected registry keys.

Re-installing Windows is an almost certain fix, but also an extremely drastic one.

how to set the default value to the drop down list control?

if you know the index of the item of default value,just

lstDepartment.SelectedIndex = 1;//the second item

or if you know the value you want to set, just

lstDepartment.SelectedValue = "the value you want to set";

How do I fix a merge conflict due to removal of a file in a branch?

I normally just run git mergetool and it will prompt me if I want to keep the modified file or keep it deleted. This is the quickest way IMHO since it's one command instead of several per file.

If you have a bunch of deleted files in a specific subdirectory and you want all of them to be resolved by deleting the files, you can do this:

yes d | git mergetool -- the/subdirectory

The d is provided to choose deleting each file. You can also use m to keep the modified file. Taken from the prompt you see when you run mergetool:

Use (m)odified or (d)eleted file, or (a)bort?

List comprehension on a nested list?

Here is how to convert nested for loop to nested list comprehension:

Here is how nested list comprehension works:

            l a b c d e f
            ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
In [1]: l = [ [ [ [ [ [ 1 ] ] ] ] ] ]
In [2]: for a in l:
   ...:     for b in a:
   ...:         for c in b:
   ...:             for d in c:
   ...:                 for e in d:
   ...:                     for f in e:
   ...:                         print(float(f))
   ...:                         
1.0

In [3]: [float(f)
         for a in l
   ...:     for b in a
   ...:         for c in b
   ...:             for d in c
   ...:                 for e in d
   ...:                     for f in e]
Out[3]: [1.0]

For your case, it will be something like this.

In [4]: new_list = [float(y) for x in l for y in x]

Remove spaces from a string in VB.NET

You can also use a small function that will loop through and remove any spaces.

This is very clean and simple.

Public Shared Function RemoveXtraSpaces(strVal As String) As String
     Dim iCount As Integer = 1
     Dim sTempstrVal As String

     sTempstrVal = ""

     For iCount = 1 To Len(strVal)
        sTempstrVal = sTempstrVal + Mid(strVal, iCount, 1).Trim
     Next

     RemoveXtraSpaces = sTempstrVal

     Return RemoveXtraSpaces

End Function

Easy way to get a test file into JUnit

If you want to load a test resource file as a string with just few lines of code and without any extra dependencies, this does the trick:

public String loadResourceAsString(String fileName) throws IOException {
    Scanner scanner = new Scanner(getClass().getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream(fileName));
    String contents = scanner.useDelimiter("\\A").next();
    scanner.close();
    return contents;
}

"\\A" matches the start of input and there's only ever one. So this parses the entire file contents and returns it as a string. Best of all, it doesn't require any 3rd party libraries (like IOUTils).

Text in a flex container doesn't wrap in IE11

.grandparent{
   display: table;
}

.parent{
  display: table-cell

}

This worked for me.

IOS: verify if a point is inside a rect

I'm starting to learn how to code with Swift and was trying to solve this too, this is what I came up with on Swift's playground:

// Code
var x = 1
var y = 2
var lowX = 1
var lowY = 1
var highX = 3
var highY = 3


if (x, y) >= (lowX, lowY) && (x, y) <= (highX, highY ) {
    print("inside")
} else {
    print("not inside")
}

It prints inside

Maven: repository element was not specified in the POM inside distributionManagement?

I got the same message ("repository element was not specified in the POM inside distributionManagement element"). I checked /target/checkout/pom.xml and as per another answer and it really lacked <distributionManagement>.

It turned out that the problem was that <distributionManagement> was missing in pom.xml in my master branch (using git).

After cleaning up (mvn release:rollback, mvn clean, mvn release:clean, git tag -d v1.0.0) I run mvn release again and it worked.

How to convert a Datetime string to a current culture datetime string

DateTime.TryParse(datetimestring,culture, styles, out dateValue);

Format decimal for percentage values?

I have found the above answer to be the best solution, but I don't like the leading space before the percent sign. I have seen somewhat complicated solutions, but I just use this Replace addition to the answer above instead of using other rounding solutions.

String.Format("Value: {0:P2}.", 0.8526).Replace(" %","%") // formats as 85.26% (varies by culture)

C# Test if user has write access to a folder

Above solutions are good but for me, I find this code simple and workable. Just create a temporary file. If the file is created, its mean user has the write access.

        public static bool HasWritePermission(string tempfilepath)
        {
            try
            {
                System.IO.File.Create(tempfilepath + "temp.txt").Close();
                System.IO.File.Delete(tempfilepath + "temp.txt");
            }
            catch (System.UnauthorizedAccessException ex)
            {

                return false;
            }

            return true;
        }

Insert default value when parameter is null

The easiest way to do this is to modify the table declaration to be

CREATE TABLE Demo
(
    MyColumn VARCHAR(10) NOT NULL DEFAULT 'Me'
)

Now, in your stored procedure you can do something like.

CREATE PROCEDURE InsertDemo
    @MyColumn VARCHAR(10) = null
AS
INSERT INTO Demo (MyColumn) VALUES(@MyColumn)

However, this method ONLY works if you can't have a null, otherwise, your stored procedure would have to use a different form of insert to trigger a default.

Parse string to date with moment.js

moment was perfect for what I needed. NOTE it ignores the hours and minutes and just does it's thing if you let it. This was perfect for me as my API call brings back the date and time but I only care about the date.

function momentTest() {

  var varDate = "2018-01-19 18:05:01.423";
  var myDate =  moment(varDate,"YYYY-MM-DD").format("DD-MM-YYYY");
  var todayDate = moment().format("DD-MM-YYYY");  
  var yesterdayDate = moment().subtract(1, 'days').format("DD-MM-YYYY");   
  var tomorrowDate = moment().add(1, 'days').format("DD-MM-YYYY");

  alert(todayDate);

  if (myDate == todayDate) {
    alert("date is today");
  } else if (myDate == yesterdayDate) {
    alert("date is yesterday");
  } else if (myDate == tomorrowDate) {
    alert("date is tomorrow");
  } else {
    alert("It's not today, tomorrow or yesterday!");
  }
}

fatal: This operation must be run in a work tree

You repository is bare, i.e. it does not have a working tree attached to it. You can clone it locally to create a working tree for it, or you could use one of several other options to tell Git where the working tree is, e.g. the --work-tree option for single commands, or the GIT_WORK_TREE environment variable. There is also the core.worktree configuration option but it will not work in a bare repository (check the man page for what it does).

# git --work-tree=/path/to/work/tree checkout master
# GIT_WORK_TREE=/path/to/work/tree git status

Updating a date in Oracle SQL table

This is based on the assumption that you're getting an error about the date format, such as an invalid month value or non-numeric character when numeric expected.

Dates stored in the database do not have formats. When you query the date your client is formatting the date for display, as 4/16/2011. Normally the same date format is used for selecting and updating dates, but in this case they appear to be different - so your client is apparently doing something more complicated that SQL*Plus, for example.

When you try to update it it's using a default date format model. Because of how it's displayed you're assuming that is MM/DD/YYYY, but it seems not to be. You could find out what it is, but it's better not to rely on the default or any implicit format models at all.

Whether that is the problem or not, you should always specify the date model:

UPDATE PASOFDATE SET ASOFDATE = TO_DATE('11/21/2012', 'MM/DD/YYYY');

Since you aren't specifying a time component - all Oracle DATE columns include a time, even if it's midnight - you could also use a date literal:

UPDATE PASOFDATE SET ASOFDATE = DATE '2012-11-21';

You should maybe check that the current value doesn't include a time, though the column name suggests it doesn't.

Is there a NumPy function to return the first index of something in an array?

There are lots of operations in NumPy that could perhaps be put together to accomplish this. This will return indices of elements equal to item:

numpy.nonzero(array - item)

You could then take the first elements of the lists to get a single element.

Debugging PHP Mail() and/or PHPMailer

It looks like the class.phpmailer.php file is corrupt. I would download the latest version and try again.

I've always used phpMailer's SMTP feature:

$mail->IsSMTP();
$mail->Host = "localhost";

And if you need debug info:

$mail->SMTPDebug  = 2; // enables SMTP debug information (for testing)
                       // 1 = errors and messages
                       // 2 = messages only

Rename package in Android Studio

Changing the application ID (which is now independent of the package name) can be done very easily in one step. You don't have to touch AndroidManifest. Instead do the following:

right click on the root folder of your project.
Click "Open Module Setting".
Go to the Flavours tab.
Change the applicationID to whatever package name you want. Press OK.

Note this will not change the package name. The decoupling of Package Name and Application ID is explained here: http://tools.android.com/tech-docs/new-build-system/applicationid-vs-packagename

How to execute INSERT statement using JdbcTemplate class from Spring Framework

Use jdbcTemplate.update(String sql, Object... args) method:

jdbcTemplate.update(
    "INSERT INTO schema.tableName (column1, column2) VALUES (?, ?)",
    var1, var2
);

or jdbcTemplate.update(String sql, Object[] args, int[] argTypes), if you need to map arguments to SQL types manually:

jdbcTemplate.update(
    "INSERT INTO schema.tableName (column1, column2) VALUES (?, ?)",
    new Object[]{var1, var2}, new Object[]{Types.TYPE_OF_VAR1, Types.TYPE_OF_VAR2}
);

How to Replace Multiple Characters in SQL?

I had a one-off data migration issue where the source data could not output correctly some unusual/technical characters plus the ubiquitous extra commas in CSVs.

We decided that for each such character the source extract should replace them with something that was recognisable to both the source system and the SQL Server that was loading them but which would not be in the data otherwise.

It did mean however that in various columns across various tables these replacement characters would appear and I would have to replace them. Nesting multiple REPLACE functions made the import code look scary and prone to errors in misjudging the placement and number of brackets so I wrote the following function. I know it can process a column in a table of 3,000 rows in less than a second though I'm not sure how quickly it will scale up to multi-million row tables.

create function [dbo].[udf_ReplaceMultipleChars]
(
    @OriginalString nvarchar(4000)
  , @ReplaceTheseChars nvarchar(100)
  , @LengthOfReplacement int = 1
)
returns nvarchar(4000)
begin

    declare @RevisedString nvarchar(4000) = N'';
    declare @lengthofinput int =
            (
            select len(@OriginalString)
            );

with AllNumbers
as (select 1 as  Number
    union all
    select Number + 1
    from AllNumbers
    where Number < @lengthofinput)
select @RevisedString += case
                             when (charindex(substring(@OriginalString, Number, 1), @ReplaceTheseChars, 1) - 1) % 2
    = 0 then
                                 substring(
                                              @ReplaceTheseChars
                                            , charindex(
                                                           substring(@OriginalString, Number, 1)
                                                         , @ReplaceTheseChars
                                                         , 1
                                                       ) + 1
                                            , @LengthOfReplacement
                                          )
                             else
                                 substring(@OriginalString, Number, 1)
                         end
    from AllNumbers
    option (maxrecursion 4000);
    return (@RevisedString);
end;

It works by submitting both the string to be evaluated and have characters to be replaced (@OriginalString) along with a string of paired characters where the first character is to be replaced by the second, the third by the fourth, fifth by sixth and so on (@ReplaceTheseChars).

Here is the string of chars that I needed to replace and their replacements... [']"~,{Ø}°$±|¼¦¼ª½¬½^¾#?

i.e. A opening square bracket denotes an apostrophe, a closing one a double quote. You can see that there were vulgar fractions as well as degrees and diameter symbols in there.

There is a default @LengthOfReplacement that is included as a starting point if anyone needed to replace longer strings. I played around with that in my project but the single char replacement was the main function.

The condition of the case statement is important. It ensures that it only replaces the character if it is found in your @ReplaceTheseChars variable and that the character has to be found in an odd numbered position (the minus 1 from charindex result ensures that anything NOT found returns a negative modulo value). i.e if you find a tilde (~) in position 5 it will replace it with a comma but if on a subsequent run it found the comma in position 6 it would not replace it with a curly bracket ({).

This can be best demonstrated with an example...

declare @ProductDescription nvarchar(20) = N'abc~def[¦][123';
select @ProductDescription
= dbo.udf_ReplaceMultipleChars(
                                  @ProductDescription
/* NB the doubling up of the apostrophe is necessary in the string but resolves to a single apostrophe when passed to the function */
                                ,'['']"~,{Ø}°$±|¼¦¼ª½¬½^¾#?' 
                                , default
                              );
select @ProductDescription
 , dbo.udf_ReplaceMultipleChars(
                                   @ProductDescription
                                 ,'['']"~,{Ø}°$±|¼¦¼ª½¬½^¾#?'
/* if you didn't know how to type those peculiar chars in then you can build a string like  this... '[' + nchar(0x0027) + ']"~,{' + nchar(0x00D8) + '}' + nchar(0x00B0) etc */
                                ,
                                 default
                               );

This will return both the value after the first pass through the function and the second time as follows... abc,def'¼"'123 abc,def'¼"'123

A table update would just be

update a
set a.Col1 = udf.ReplaceMultipleChars(a.Col1,'~,]"',1)
from TestTable a

Finally (I hear you say!), although I've not had access to the translate function I believe that this function can process the example shown in the documentation quite easily. The TRANSLATE function demo is

SELECT TRANSLATE('2*[3+4]/{7-2}', '[]{}', '()()');

which returns 2*(3+4)/(7-2) although I understand it might not work on 2*[3+4]/[7-2] !!

My function would approach this as follows listing each char to be replaced followed by its replacement [ --> (, { --> ( etc.

select dbo.udf_ReplaceMultipleChars('2*[3+4]/{7-2}', '[({(])})', 1);

which will also work for

select dbo.udf_ReplaceMultipleChars('2*[3+4]/[7-2]', '[({(])})', 1);

I hope someone finds this useful and if you get to test its performance against larger tables do let us know one way or another!

How to access the services from RESTful API in my angularjs page?

The $http service can be used for general purpose AJAX. If you have a proper RESTful API, you should take a look at ngResource.

You might also take a look at Restangular, which is a third party library to handle REST APIs easy.

Wait until an HTML5 video loads

You don't really need jQuery for this as there is a Media API that provides you with all you need.

var video = document.getElementById('myVideo');
video.src = 'my_video_' + value + '.ogg';
video.load();

The Media API also contains a load() method which: "Causes the element to reset and start selecting and loading a new media resource from scratch."

(Ogg isn't the best format to use, as it's only supported by a limited number of browsers. I'd suggest using WebM and MP4 to cover all major browsers - you can use the canPlayType() function to decide on which one to play).

You can then wait for either the loadedmetadata or loadeddata (depending on what you want) events to fire:

video.addEventListener('loadeddata', function() {
   // Video is loaded and can be played
}, false);

Python: find position of element in array

For your first question, find the position of some value in a list x using index(), like so:

x.index(value)

For your second question, to check for multiple same values you should split your list into chunks and use the same logic from above. They say divide and conquer. It works. Try this:

value = 1 
x = [1,2,3,4,5,6,2,1,4,5,6]

chunk_a = x[:int(len(x)/2)] # get the first half of x 
chunk_b = x[int(len(x)/2):] # get the rest half of x

print(chunk_a.index(value))
print(chunk_b.index(value))

Hope that helps!

JavaScript: replace last occurrence of text in a string

I would suggest using the replace-last npm package.

_x000D_

var str = 'one two, one three, one four, one';_x000D_
var result = replaceLast(str, 'one', 'finish');_x000D_
console.log(result);

_x000D_

<script src="https://unpkg.com/replace-last@latest/replaceLast.js"></script>

_x000D_

This works for string and regex replacements.

Unable to execute dex: Multiple dex files define

I had this problem in Intellij and it was because the ActionBarSherlock library I added to my project defined the android-support-v4.jar as a compile dependency and this jar was already included in my project so there were multiple copies/version of DEX at compile time.

The solution was to change the ActionBarSherlock module dependency for this jar to be Runtime instead of compile, as my project was already providing it.

Download a div in a HTML page as pdf using javascript

Your solution requires some ajax method to pass the html to a back-end server that has a html to pdf facility and then returning the pdf output generated back to the browser.

First setting up the client side code, we will setup the jquery code as

   var options = {
            "url": "/pdf/generate/convert_to_pdf.php",
            "data": "data=" + $("#content").html(),
            "type": "post",
        }
   $.ajax(options)

Then intercept the data from the html2pdf generation script (somewhere from the internet).
convert_to_pdf.php (given as url in JQUERY code) looks like this -

<?php
    $html = $_POST['data'];
    $pdf = html2pdf($html);
    
    header("Content-Type: application/pdf"); //check this is the proper header for pdf
    header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename='some.pdf';");
    echo $pdf;
?>

Spring Resttemplate exception handling

You want to create a class that implements ResponseErrorHandler and then use an instance of it to set the error handling of your rest template:

public class MyErrorHandler implements ResponseErrorHandler {
  @Override
  public void handleError(ClientHttpResponse response) throws IOException {
    // your error handling here
  }

  @Override
  public boolean hasError(ClientHttpResponse response) throws IOException {
     ...
  }
}

[...]

public static void main(String args[]) {
  RestTemplate restTemplate = new RestTemplate();
  restTemplate.setErrorHandler(new MyErrorHandler());
}

Also, Spring has the class DefaultResponseErrorHandler, which you can extend instead of implementing the interface, in case you only want to override the handleError method.

public class MyErrorHandler extends DefaultResponseErrorHandler {
  @Override
  public void handleError(ClientHttpResponse response) throws IOException {
    // your error handling here
  }
}

Take a look at its source code to have an idea of how Spring handles HTTP errors.

How to print VARCHAR(MAX) using Print Statement?

This proc correctly prints out VARCHAR(MAX) parameter considering wrapping:

CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[Print]
    @sql varchar(max)
AS
BEGIN
    declare
        @n int,
        @i int = 0,
        @s int = 0, -- substring start posotion
        @l int;     -- substring length

    set @n = ceiling(len(@sql) / 8000.0);

    while @i < @n
    begin
        set @l = 8000 - charindex(char(13), reverse(substring(@sql, @s, 8000)));
        print substring(@sql, @s, @l);
        set @i = @i + 1;
        set @s = @s + @l + 2; -- accumulation + CR/LF
    end

    return 0
END

How can I position my div at the bottom of its container?

Likely not.

Assign position:relative to #container, and then position:absolute; bottom:0; to #copyright.

_x000D_

#container {_x000D_
    position: relative;_x000D_
}_x000D_
#copyright {_x000D_
    position: absolute;_x000D_
    bottom: 0;_x000D_
}

_x000D_

<div id="container">_x000D_
  <!-- Other elements here -->_x000D_
  <div id="copyright">_x000D_
    Copyright Foo web designs_x000D_

Why do I get "a label can only be part of a statement and a declaration is not a statement" if I have a variable that is initialized after a label?

This is a quirk of the C grammar. A label (Cleanup:) is not allowed to appear immediately before a declaration (such as char *str ...;), only before a statement (printf(...);). In C89 this was no great difficulty because declarations could only appear at the very beginning of a block, so you could always move the label down a bit and avoid the issue. In C99 you can mix declarations and code, but you still can't put a label immediately before a declaration.

You can put a semicolon immediately after the label's colon (as suggested by Renan) to make there be an empty statement there; this is what I would do in machine-generated code. Alternatively, hoist the declaration to the top of the function:

int main (void) 
{
    char *str;
    printf("Hello ");
    goto Cleanup;
Cleanup:
    str = "World\n";
    printf("%s\n", str);
    return 0;
}
