Apache Server (xampp) doesn't run on Windows 10 (Port 80)

I had the exact same problem and solved it running the folowing command from the command line as an admin :

1) first stop the service with the following

net stop http /y

2) then disable the startup (optional)

sc config http start= disabled

How to apply an XSLT Stylesheet in C#

This might help you

public static string TransformDocument(string doc, string stylesheetPath)
{
    Func<string,XmlDocument> GetXmlDocument = (xmlContent) =>
     {
         XmlDocument xmlDocument = new XmlDocument();
         xmlDocument.LoadXml(xmlContent);
         return xmlDocument;
     };

    try
    {
        var document = GetXmlDocument(doc);
        var style = GetXmlDocument(File.ReadAllText(stylesheetPath));

        System.Xml.Xsl.XslCompiledTransform transform = new System.Xml.Xsl.XslCompiledTransform();
        transform.Load(style); // compiled stylesheet
        System.IO.StringWriter writer = new System.IO.StringWriter();
        XmlReader xmlReadB = new XmlTextReader(new StringReader(document.DocumentElement.OuterXml));
        transform.Transform(xmlReadB, null, writer);
        return writer.ToString();
    }
    catch (Exception ex)
    {
        throw ex;
    }

}

Exception: There is already an open DataReader associated with this Connection which must be closed first

The issue you are running into is that you are starting up a second MySqlCommand while still reading back data with the DataReader. The MySQL connector only allows one concurrent query. You need to read the data into some structure, then close the reader, then process the data. Unfortunately you can't process the data as it is read if your processing involves further SQL queries.

SSIS expression: convert date to string

@[User::path] ="MDS/Material/"+(DT_STR, 4, 1252) DATEPART("yy" , GETDATE())+ "/" + RIGHT("0" + (DT_STR, 2, 1252) DATEPART("mm" , GETDATE()), 2) + "/" + RIGHT("0" + (DT_STR, 2, 1252) DATEPART("dd" , GETDATE()), 2)

file_get_contents() Breaks Up UTF-8 Characters

I think you simply have a double conversion of the character type there :D

It may be, because you opened an html document within a html document. So you have something that looks like this in the end

<!DOCTYPE html> 
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />
<title></title>
</head>
<body>
<!DOCTYPE html> 
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />
<title>Test</title>.......

The use of mb_detect_encoding therefore may lead you to other issues.

Linux Script to check if process is running and act on the result

Programs to monitor if a process on a system is running.

Script is stored in crontab and runs once every minute.

This works with if process is not running or process is running multiple times:

#! /bin/bash

case "$(pidof amadeus.x86 | wc -w)" in

0)  echo "Restarting Amadeus:     $(date)" >> /var/log/amadeus.txt
    /etc/amadeus/amadeus.x86 &
    ;;
1)  # all ok
    ;;
*)  echo "Removed double Amadeus: $(date)" >> /var/log/amadeus.txt
    kill $(pidof amadeus.x86 | awk '{print $1}')
    ;;
esac

0 If process is not found, restart it.
1 If process is found, all ok.
* If process running 2 or more, kill the last.

A simpler version. This just test if process is running, and if not restart it.

It just tests the exit flag $? from the pidof program. It will be 0 of process is running and 1 if not.

#!/bin/bash
pidof  amadeus.x86 >/dev/null
if [[ $? -ne 0 ]] ; then
        echo "Restarting Amadeus:     $(date)" >> /var/log/amadeus.txt
        /etc/amadeus/amadeus.x86 &
fi

And at last, a one liner

pidof amadeus.x86 >/dev/null ; [[ $? -ne 0 ]] && echo "Restarting Amadeus:     $(date)" >> /var/log/amadeus.txt && /etc/amadeus/amadeus.x86 &

How do I run all Python unit tests in a directory?

If you want to run all the tests from various test case classes and you're happy to specify them explicitly then you can do it like this:

from unittest import TestLoader, TextTestRunner, TestSuite
from uclid.test.test_symbols import TestSymbols
from uclid.test.test_patterns import TestPatterns

if __name__ == "__main__":

    loader = TestLoader()
    tests = [
        loader.loadTestsFromTestCase(test)
        for test in (TestSymbols, TestPatterns)
    ]
    suite = TestSuite(tests)

    runner = TextTestRunner(verbosity=2)
    runner.run(suite)

where uclid is my project and TestSymbols and TestPatterns are subclasses of TestCase.

Display HTML snippets in HTML

best way:

<xmp>
// your codes ..
</xmp>

old samples:

sample 1:

<pre>
  This text has
  been formatted using
  the HTML pre tag. The brower should
  display all white space
  as it was entered.
</pre>

sample 2:

<pre>
  <code>
    My pre-formatted code
    here.
  </code>
</pre>

sample 3: (If you are actually "quoting" a block of code, then the markup would be)

<blockquote>
  <pre>
    <code>
        My pre-formatted "quoted" code here.
    </code>
  </pre>
</blockquote>

nice CSS sample:

pre{
  font-family: Consolas, Menlo, Monaco, Lucida Console, Liberation Mono, DejaVu Sans Mono, Bitstream Vera Sans Mono, Courier New, monospace, serif;
  margin-bottom: 10px;
  overflow: auto;
  width: auto;
  padding: 5px;
  background-color: #eee;
  width: 650px!ie7;
  padding-bottom: 20px!ie7;
  max-height: 600px;
}

How to count number of files in each directory?

Here's one way to do it, but probably not the most efficient.

find -type d -print0 | xargs -0 -n1 bash -c 'echo -n "$1:"; ls -1 "$1" | wc -l' --

Gives output like this, with directory name followed by count of entries in that directory. Note that the output count will also include directory entries which may not be what you want.

./c/fa/l:0
./a:4
./a/c:0
./a/a:1
./a/a/b:0

How to know a Pod's own IP address from inside a container in the Pod?

The simplest answer is to ensure that your pod or replication controller yaml/json files add the pod IP as an environment variable by adding the config block defined below. (the block below additionally makes the name and namespace available to the pod)

env:
- name: MY_POD_NAME
  valueFrom:
    fieldRef:
      fieldPath: metadata.name
- name: MY_POD_NAMESPACE
  valueFrom:
    fieldRef:
      fieldPath: metadata.namespace
- name: MY_POD_IP
  valueFrom:
    fieldRef:
      fieldPath: status.podIP

Recreate the pod/rc and then try

echo $MY_POD_IP

also run env to see what else kubernetes provides you with.

Using VBA code, how to export Excel worksheets as image in Excel 2003?

Winand, Quality was also an issue for me so I did this:

For Each ws In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets
    If ws.PageSetup.PrintArea <> "" Then
        'Reverse the effects of page zoom on the exported image
        zoom_coef = 100 / ws.Parent.Windows(1).Zoom
        areas = Split(ws.PageSetup.PrintArea, ",")
        areaNo = 0
        For Each a In areas
            Set area = ws.Range(a)
            ' Change xlPrinter to xlScreen to see zooming white space
            area.CopyPicture Appearance:=xlPrinter, Format:=xlPicture
            Set chartobj = ws.ChartObjects.Add(0, 0, area.Width * zoom_coef, area.Height * zoom_coef)
            chartobj.Chart.Paste
            'scale the image before export
            ws.Shapes(chartobj.Index).ScaleHeight 3, msoFalse, msoScaleFromTopLeft
            ws.Shapes(chartobj.Index).ScaleWidth 3, msoFalse, msoScaleFromTopLeft
            chartobj.Chart.Export ws.Name & "-" & areaNo & ".png", "png"
            chartobj.delete

How does a ArrayList's contains() method evaluate objects?

Shortcut from JavaDoc:

boolean contains(Object o)

Returns true if this list contains the specified element. More formally, returns true if and only if this list contains at least one element e such that (o==null ? e==null : o.equals(e))

Pretty print in MongoDB shell as default

Oh so i guess .pretty() is equal to:

Practical uses of git reset --soft?

I use it to amend more than just the last commit.

Let's say I made a mistake in commit A and then made commit B. Now I can only amend B. So I do git reset --soft HEAD^^, I correct and re-commit A and then re-commit B.

Of course, it's not very convenient for large commits… but you shouldn't do large commits anyway ;-)

How can I make a countdown with NSTimer?

T-SQL How to select only Second row from a table?

I'm guessing you're using SQL 2005 or greater. The 2nd line selects the top 2 rows and by using ORDER BY ROW_COUNT DESC, the 2nd row is arranged as being first, then it is selected using TOP 1

SELECT TOP 1 COLUMN1, COLUMN2
from (
  SELECT TOP 2 COLUMN1, COLUMN2
  FROM Table
) ORDER BY ROW_NUMBER DESC

How to customise the Jackson JSON mapper implicitly used by Spring Boot?

how to query for a list<String> in jdbctemplate

Is there a way to have placeholders, like ? for column names? For example SELECT ? FROM TABLEA GROUP BY ?

Use dynamic query as below:

String queryString = "SELECT "+ colName+ " FROM TABLEA GROUP BY "+ colName;

If I want to simply run the above query and get a List what is the best way?

List<String> data = getJdbcTemplate().query(query, new RowMapper<String>(){
                            public String mapRow(ResultSet rs, int rowNum) 
                                                         throws SQLException {
                                    return rs.getString(1);
                            }
                       });

EDIT: To Stop SQL Injection, check for non word characters in the colName as :

          Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile("\\W");
          if(pattern.matcher(str).find()){
               //throw exception as invalid column name
          }

C/C++ line number

For those who might need it, a "FILE_LINE" macro to easily print file and line:

#define STR(x) STRINGIZING(x)
#define FILE_LINE __FILE__ ":" STR(__LINE__)

setState(...): Can only update a mounted or mounting component. This usually means you called setState() on an unmounted component. This is a no-op

A lot of the answers in this thread get the point of using refs, but I think a complete example would be good. Since you're operating on an actual DOM node by using the event listener and stepping out of the React context, a ref should be considered the standard solution. Here's a complete example:

class someComponent extends Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props)
    this.node = null
  }
  render() {
    return (
      <div ref={node => { this.node = node }}>Content</div>
    )
  }
  handleEvent(event) {
    if (this.node) {
      this.setState({...})
    }
  }
  componentDidMount() {
    //as soon as render completes, the node will be registered.
    const handleEvent = this.handleEvent.bind(this)
    this.node.addEventListener('click', handleEvent)
  }
  componentWillUnmount() {
    const handleEvent = this.handleEvent.bind(this)
    this.node.removeEventListener('click', handleEvent)
  }
}

AngularJs directive not updating another directive's scope

Just wondering why you are using 2 directives?

It seems like, in this case it would be more straightforward to have a controller as the parent - handle adding the data from your service to its $scope, and pass the model you need from there into your warrantyDirective.

Or for that matter, you could use 0 directives to achieve the same result. (ie. move all functionality out of the separate directives and into a single controller).

It doesn't look like you're doing any explicit DOM transformation here, so in this case, perhaps using 2 directives is overcomplicating things.

Alternatively, have a look at the Angular documentation for directives: http://docs.angularjs.org/guide/directive The very last example at the bottom of the page explains how to wire up dependent directives.

How to reset AUTO_INCREMENT in MySQL?

You need to follow the advice from Miles M comment and here is a little code that fixes the range in mysql. Also u need to open up my.ini(Mysql) and change max_execution_time=60 to max_execution_time=6000; for large databases. Dont use "ALTER TABLE tablename AUTO_INCREMENT = 1" it will delete everything in your database.

$con=mysqli_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass, $database);
$res=mysqli_query($con, "select * FROM data WHERE id LIKE id ORDER BY id ASC");
$count = 0;  
while ($row = mysqli_fetch_array($res)){
         $count++;
        
    mysqli_query($con, "UPDATE data SET id='".$count."' WHERE id='".$row['id']."'");
    
         }
         echo 'Done reseting id';
         mysqli_close($con);

MySQL root password change

I searched around as well and probably some answers do fit for some situations,

my situation is Mysql 5.7 on a Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS system:

(get root privileges)

$ sudo bash

(set up password for root db user + implement security in steps)

# mysql_secure_installation

(give access to the root user via password in stead of socket)

(+ edit: apparently you need to set the password again?)

(don't set it to 'mySecretPassword'!!!)

# mysql -u root

mysql> USE mysql;
mysql> UPDATE user SET plugin='mysql_native_password' WHERE User='root';
mysql> set password for 'root'@'localhost' = PASSWORD('mySecretPassword'); 
mysql> FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
mysql> exit;

# service mysql restart

Many thanks to zetacu (and erich) for this excellent answer (after searching a couple of hours...)

Enjoy :-D

Edit (2020):

This method doesn't work anymore, see this question for future reference...

How to get Spinner selected item value to string?

I think you want the selected item of the spinner when button is clicked..

Try getSelectedItem():

spinner.getSelectedItem()

Objective-C: Extract filename from path string

If you're displaying a user-readable file name, you do not want to use lastPathComponent. Instead, pass the full path to NSFileManager's displayNameAtPath: method. This basically does does the same thing, only it correctly localizes the file name and removes the extension based on the user's preferences.

dplyr mutate with conditional values

Try this:

myfile %>% mutate(V5 = (V1 == 1 & V2 != 4) + 2 * (V2 == 4 & V3 != 1))

giving:

  V1 V2 V3 V4 V5
1  1  2  3  5  1
2  2  4  4  1  2
3  1  4  1  1  0
4  4  5  1  3  0
5  5  5  5  4  0

or this:

myfile %>% mutate(V5 = ifelse(V1 == 1 & V2 != 4, 1, ifelse(V2 == 4 & V3 != 1, 2, 0)))

giving:

  V1 V2 V3 V4 V5
1  1  2  3  5  1
2  2  4  4  1  2
3  1  4  1  1  0
4  4  5  1  3  0
5  5  5  5  4  0

Note

Suggest you get a better name for your data frame. myfile makes it seem as if it holds a file name.

Above used this input:

myfile <- 
structure(list(V1 = c(1L, 2L, 1L, 4L, 5L), V2 = c(2L, 4L, 4L, 
5L, 5L), V3 = c(3L, 4L, 1L, 1L, 5L), V4 = c(5L, 1L, 1L, 3L, 4L
)), .Names = c("V1", "V2", "V3", "V4"), class = "data.frame", row.names = c("1", 
"2", "3", "4", "5"))

Update 1 Since originally posted dplyr has changed %.% to %>% so have modified answer accordingly.

Update 2 dplyr now has case_when which provides another solution:

myfile %>% 
       mutate(V5 = case_when(V1 == 1 & V2 != 4 ~ 1, 
                             V2 == 4 & V3 != 1 ~ 2,
                             TRUE ~ 0))

.NET - How do I retrieve specific items out of a Dataset?

You can do like...

If you want to access using ColumnName

Int32 First = Convert.ToInt32(ds.Tables[0].Rows[0]["column4Name"].ToString());
Int32 Second = Convert.ToInt32(ds.Tables[0].Rows[0]["column5Name"].ToString());

OR, if you want to access using Index

Int32 First = Convert.ToInt32(ds.Tables[0].Rows[0][4].ToString());
Int32 Second = Convert.ToInt32(ds.Tables[0].Rows[0][5].ToString());

How to remove all characters after a specific character in python?

Without a RE (which I assume is what you want):

def remafterellipsis(text):
  where_ellipsis = text.find('...')
  if where_ellipsis == -1:
    return text
  return text[:where_ellipsis + 3]

or, with a RE:

import re

def remwithre(text, there=re.compile(re.escape('...')+'.*')):
  return there.sub('', text)

node.js vs. meteor.js what's the difference?

Meteor's strength is in it's real-time updates feature which works well for some of the social applications you see nowadays where you see everyone's updates for what you're working on. These updates center around replicating subsets of a MongoDB collection underneath the covers as local mini-mongo (their client side MongoDB subset) database updates on your web browser (which causes multiple render events to be fired on your templates). The latter part about multiple render updates is also the weakness. If you want your UI to control when the UI refreshes (e.g., classic jQuery AJAX pages where you load up the HTML and you control all the AJAX calls and UI updates), you'll be fighting this mechanism.

Meteor uses a nice stack of Node.js plugins (Handlebars.js, Spark.js, Bootstrap css, etc. but using it's own packaging mechanism instead of npm) underneath along w/ MongoDB for the storage layer that you don't have to think about. But sometimes you end up fighting it as well...e.g., if you want to customize the Bootstrap theme, it messes up the loading sequence of Bootstrap's responsive.css file so it no longer is responsive (but this will probably fix itself when Bootstrap 3.0 is released soon).

So like all "full stack frameworks", things work great as long as your app fits what's intended. Once you go beyond that scope and push the edge boundaries, you might end up fighting the framework...

Use stored procedure to insert some data into a table

If you have the table definition to have an IDENTITY column e.g. IDENTITY(1,1) then don't include MyId in your INSERT INTO statement. The point of IDENTITY is it gives it the next unused value as the primary key value.

insert into MYDB.dbo.MainTable (MyFirstName, MyLastName, MyAddress, MyPort)
values(@myFirstName, @myLastName, @myAddress, @myPort)

There is then no need to pass the @MyId parameter into your stored procedure either. So change it to:

CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[sp_Test]
@myFirstName nvarchar(50)
,@myLastName nvarchar(50)
,@myAddress nvarchar(MAX)
,@myPort int

AS

If you want to know what the ID of the newly inserted record is add

SELECT @@IDENTITY

to the end of your procedure. e.g. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms187342.aspx

You will then be able to pick this up in which ever way you are calling it be it SQL or .NET.

P.s. a better way to show you table definision would have been to script the table and paste the text into your stackoverflow browser window because your screen shot is missing the column properties part where IDENTITY is set via the GUI. To do that right click the table 'Script Table as' --> 'CREATE to' --> Clipboard. You can also do File or New Query Editor Window (all self explanitory) experient and see what you get.

Create a new file in git bash

Yes, it is. Just create files in the windows explorer and git automatically detects these files as currently untracked. Then add it with the command you already mentioned.

git add does not create any files. See also http://gitref.org/basic/#add

Github probably creates the file with touch and adds the file for tracking automatically. You can do this on the bash as well.

Render Partial View Using jQuery in ASP.NET MVC

If you need to reference a dynamically generated value you can also append query string paramters after the @URL.Action like so:

    var id = $(this).attr('id');
    var value = $(this).attr('value');
    $('#user_content').load('@Url.Action("UserDetails","User")?Param1=' + id + "&Param2=" + value);


    public ActionResult Details( int id, string value )
    {
        var model = GetFooModel();
        if (Request.IsAjaxRequest())
        {
            return PartialView( "UserDetails", model );
        }
        return View(model);

PKIX path building failed in Java application

You've imported the certificate into the truststore of the JRE provided in the JDK, but you are running the java.exe of the JRE installed directly.

EDIT

For clarity, and to resolve the morass of misunderstanding in the commentary below, you need to import the certificate into the cacerts file of the JRE you are intending to use, and that will rarely if ever be the one shipping inside the JDK, because clients won't normally have a JDK. Anything in the commentary below that suggests otherwise should be ignored as not expressing my intention here.

A far better solution would be to create your own truststore, starting with a copy of the cacerts file, and specifically tell Java to use that one via the system property javax.net.ssl.trustStore.

You should make building this part of your build process, so as to keep up to date with changes I the cacerts file caused by JDK upgrades.

Angular 4 default radio button checked by default

You can use [(ngModel)], but you'll need to update your value to [value] otherwise the value is evaluating as a string. It would look like this:

<label>This rule is true if:</label>
<label class="form-check-inline">
    <input class="form-check-input" type="radio" name="mode" [value]="true" [(ngModel)]="rule.mode">
</label>
<label class="form-check-inline">
    <input class="form-check-input" type="radio" name="mode" [value]="false" [(ngModel)]="rule.mode">
</label>

If rule.mode is true, then that radio is selected. If it's false, then the other.

The difference really comes down to the value. value="true" really evaluates to the string 'true', whereas [value]="true" evaluates to the boolean true.

Can I invoke an instance method on a Ruby module without including it?

If you want to call these methods without including module in another class then you need to define them as module methods:

module UsefulThings
  def self.get_file; ...
  def self.delete_file; ...

  def self.format_text(x); ...
end

and then you can call them with

UsefulThings.format_text("xxx")

UsefulThings::format_text("xxx")

But anyway I would recommend that you put just related methods in one module or in one class. If you have problem that you want to include just one method from module then it sounds like a bad code smell and it is not good Ruby style to put unrelated methods together.

PHP Function with Optional Parameters

NOTE: This is an old answer, for PHP 5.5 and below. PHP 5.6+ supports default arguments

In PHP 5.5 and below, you can achieve this by using one of these 2 methods:

using the func_num_args() and func_get_arg() functions;
using NULL arguments;

How to use

function method_1()
{
  $arg1 = (func_num_args() >= 1)? func_get_arg(0): "default_value_for_arg1";
  $arg2 = (func_num_args() >= 2)? func_get_arg(1): "default_value_for_arg2";
}

function method_2($arg1 = null, $arg2 = null)
{
  $arg1 = $arg1? $arg1: "default_value_for_arg1";
  $arg2 = $arg2? $arg2: "default_value_for_arg2";
}

I prefer the second method because it's clean and easy to understand, but sometimes you may need the first method.

How to check if a variable is a dictionary in Python?

How would you check if a variable is a dictionary in Python?

This is an excellent question, but it is unfortunate that the most upvoted answer leads with a poor recommendation, type(obj) is dict.

(Note that you should also not use dict as a variable name - it's the name of the builtin object.)

If you are writing code that will be imported and used by others, do not presume that they will use the dict builtin directly - making that presumption makes your code more inflexible and in this case, create easily hidden bugs that would not error the program out.

I strongly suggest, for the purposes of correctness, maintainability, and flexibility for future users, never having less flexible, unidiomatic expressions in your code when there are more flexible, idiomatic expressions.

is is a test for object identity. It does not support inheritance, it does not support any abstraction, and it does not support the interface.

So I will provide several options that do.

Supporting inheritance:

This is the first recommendation I would make, because it allows for users to supply their own subclass of dict, or a OrderedDict, defaultdict, or Counter from the collections module:

if isinstance(any_object, dict):

But there are even more flexible options.

Supporting abstractions:

from collections.abc import Mapping

if isinstance(any_object, Mapping):

This allows the user of your code to use their own custom implementation of an abstract Mapping, which also includes any subclass of dict, and still get the correct behavior.

Use the interface

You commonly hear the OOP advice, "program to an interface".

This strategy takes advantage of Python's polymorphism or duck-typing.

So just attempt to access the interface, catching the specific expected errors (AttributeError in case there is no .items and TypeError in case items is not callable) with a reasonable fallback - and now any class that implements that interface will give you its items (note .iteritems() is gone in Python 3):

try:
    items = any_object.items()
except (AttributeError, TypeError):
    non_items_behavior(any_object)
else: # no exception raised
    for item in items: ...

Perhaps you might think using duck-typing like this goes too far in allowing for too many false positives, and it may be, depending on your objectives for this code.

Conclusion

Don't use is to check types for standard control flow. Use isinstance, consider abstractions like Mapping or MutableMapping, and consider avoiding type-checking altogether, using the interface directly.

Both are perfectly valid in the right context. Although if you really preferred you could issue a string replace.

round() for float in C++

The C++03 standard relies on the C90 standard for what the standard calls the Standard C Library which is covered in the draft C++03 standard (closest publicly available draft standard to C++03 is N1804) section 1.2 Normative references:

The library described in clause 7 of ISO/IEC 9899:1990 and clause 7 of ISO/IEC 9899/Amd.1:1995 is hereinafter called the Standard C Library.¹⁾

If we go to the C documentation for round, lround, llround on cppreference we can see that round and related functions are part of C99 and thus won't be available in C++03 or prior.

In C++11 this changes since C++11 relies on the C99 draft standard for C standard library and therefore provides std::round and for integral return types std::lround, std::llround :

#include <iostream>
#include <cmath>

int main()
{
    std::cout << std::round( 0.4 ) << " " << std::lround( 0.4 ) << " " << std::llround( 0.4 ) << std::endl ;
    std::cout << std::round( 0.5 ) << " " << std::lround( 0.5 ) << " " << std::llround( 0.5 ) << std::endl ;
    std::cout << std::round( 0.6 ) << " " << std::lround( 0.6 ) << " " << std::llround( 0.6 ) << std::endl ;
}

Another option also from C99 would be std::trunc which:

Computes nearest integer not greater in magnitude than arg.

#include <iostream>
#include <cmath>

int main()
{
    std::cout << std::trunc( 0.4 ) << std::endl ;
    std::cout << std::trunc( 0.9 ) << std::endl ;
    std::cout << std::trunc( 1.1 ) << std::endl ;

}

If you need to support non C++11 applications your best bet would be to use boost round, iround, lround, llround or boost trunc.

Rolling your own version of round is hard

Rolling your own is probably not worth the effort as Harder than it looks: rounding float to nearest integer, part 1, Rounding float to nearest integer, part 2 and Rounding float to nearest integer, part 3 explain:

For example a common roll your implementation using std::floor and adding 0.5 does not work for all inputs:

double myround(double d)
{
  return std::floor(d + 0.5);
}

One input this will fail for is 0.49999999999999994, (see it live).

Another common implementation involves casting a floating point type to an integral type, which can invoke undefined behavior in the case where the integral part can not be represented in the destination type. We can see this from the draft C++ standard section 4.9 Floating-integral conversions which says (emphasis mine):

A prvalue of a floating point type can be converted to a prvalue of an integer type. The conversion truncates; that is, the fractional part is discarded. The behavior is undefined if the truncated value cannot be represented in the destination type.[...]

For example:

float myround(float f)
{
  return static_cast<float>( static_cast<unsigned int>( f ) ) ;
}

Given std::numeric_limits<unsigned int>::max() is 4294967295 then the following call:

myround( 4294967296.5f )

will cause overflow, (see it live).

We can see how difficult this really is by looking at this answer to Concise way to implement round() in C? which referencing newlibs version of single precision float round. It is a very long function for something which seems simple. It seems unlikely that anyone without intimate knowledge of floating point implementations could correctly implement this function:

float roundf(x)
{
  int signbit;
  __uint32_t w;
  /* Most significant word, least significant word. */
  int exponent_less_127;

  GET_FLOAT_WORD(w, x);

  /* Extract sign bit. */
  signbit = w & 0x80000000;

  /* Extract exponent field. */
  exponent_less_127 = (int)((w & 0x7f800000) >> 23) - 127;

  if (exponent_less_127 < 23)
    {
      if (exponent_less_127 < 0)
        {
          w &= 0x80000000;
          if (exponent_less_127 == -1)
            /* Result is +1.0 or -1.0. */
            w |= ((__uint32_t)127 << 23);
        }
      else
        {
          unsigned int exponent_mask = 0x007fffff >> exponent_less_127;
          if ((w & exponent_mask) == 0)
            /* x has an integral value. */
            return x;

          w += 0x00400000 >> exponent_less_127;
          w &= ~exponent_mask;
        }
    }
  else
    {
      if (exponent_less_127 == 128)
        /* x is NaN or infinite. */
        return x + x;
      else
        return x;
    }
  SET_FLOAT_WORD(x, w);
  return x;
}

On the other hand if none of the other solutions are usable newlib could potentially be an option since it is a well tested implementation.

What is the purpose of the "role" attribute in HTML?

Most of the roles you see were defined as part of ARIA 1.0, and then later incorporated into HTML via supporting specs like HTML-AAM. Some of the new HTML5 elements (dialog, main, etc.) are even based on the original ARIA roles.

http://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria/

There are a few primary reasons to use roles in addition to your native semantic element.

Reason #1. Overriding the role where no host language element is appropriate or, for various reasons, a less semantically appropriate element was used.

In this example, a link was used, even though the resulting functionality is more button-like than a navigation link.

<a href="#" role="button" aria-label="Delete item 1">Delete</a>
<!-- Note: href="#" is just a shorthand here, not a recommended technique. Use progressive enhancement when possible. -->

Screen readers users will hear this as a button (as opposed to a link), and you can use a CSS attribute selector to avoid class-itis and div-itis.

[role="button"] {
  /* style these as buttons w/o relying on a .button class */
}

[Update 7 years later: removed the * selector to make some commenters happy, since the old browser quirk that required universal selector on attribute selectors is unnecessary in 2020.]

Reason #2. Backing up a native element's role, to support browsers that implemented the ARIA role but haven't yet implemented the native element's role.

For example, the "main" role has been supported in browsers for many years, but it's a relatively recent addition to HTML5, so many browsers don't yet support the semantic for <main>.

<main role="main">…</main>

This is technically redundant, but helps some users and doesn't harm any. In a few years, this technique will likely become unnecessary for main.

Reason #3. Update 7 years later (2020): As at least one commenter pointed out, this is now very useful for custom elements, and some spec work is underway to define the default accessibility role of a web component. Even if/once that API is standardized, there may be need to override the default role of a component.

Note/Reply

You also wrote:

I see some people make up their own. Is that allowed or a correct use of the role attribute?

That's an allowed use of the attribute unless a real role is not included. Browsers will apply the first recognized role in the token list.

<span role="foo link note bar">...</a>

Out of the list, only link and note are valid roles, and so the link role will be applied in the platform accessibility API because it comes first. If you use custom roles, make sure they don't conflict with any defined role in ARIA or the host language you're using (HTML, SVG, MathML, etc.)

What is the difference between ports 465 and 587?

587 vs. 465

These port assignments are specified by the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA):

Port 587: [SMTP] Message submission (SMTP-MSA), a service that accepts submission of email from email clients (MUAs). Described in RFC 6409.
Port 465: URL Rendezvous Directory for SSM (entirely unrelated to email)

Historically, port 465 was initially planned for the SMTPS encryption and authentication “wrapper” over SMTP, but it was quickly deprecated (within months, and over 15 years ago) in favor of STARTTLS over SMTP (RFC 3207). Despite that fact, there are probably many servers that support the deprecated protocol wrapper, primarily to support older clients that implemented SMTPS. Unless you need to support such older clients, SMTPS and its use on port 465 should remain nothing more than an historical footnote.

The hopelessly confusing and imprecise term, SSL, has often been used to indicate the SMTPS wrapper and TLS to indicate the STARTTLS protocol extension.

For completeness: Port 25

Port 25: Simple Mail Transfer (SMTP-MTA), a service that accepts submission of email from other servers (MTAs or MSAs). Described in RFC 5321.

Best way to remove the last character from a string built with stringbuilder

The most simple way would be to use the Join() method:

public static void Trail()
{
    var list = new List<string> { "lala", "lulu", "lele" };
    var data = string.Join(",", list);
}

If you really need the StringBuilder, trim the end comma after the loop:

data.ToString().TrimEnd(',');

"Undefined reference to" template class constructor

This is a common question in C++ programming. There are two valid answers to this. There are advantages and disadvantages to both answers and your choice will depend on context. The common answer is to put all the implementation in the header file, but there's another approach will will be suitable in some cases. The choice is yours.

The code in a template is merely a 'pattern' known to the compiler. The compiler won't compile the constructors cola<float>::cola(...) and cola<string>::cola(...) until it is forced to do so. And we must ensure that this compilation happens for the constructors at least once in the entire compilation process, or we will get the 'undefined reference' error. (This applies to the other methods of cola<T> also.)

Understanding the problem

The problem is caused by the fact that main.cpp and cola.cpp will be compiled separately first. In main.cpp, the compiler will implicitly instantiate the template classes cola<float> and cola<string> because those particular instantiations are used in main.cpp. The bad news is that the implementations of those member functions are not in main.cpp, nor in any header file included in main.cpp, and therefore the compiler can't include complete versions of those functions in main.o. When compiling cola.cpp, the compiler won't compile those instantiations either, because there are no implicit or explicit instantiations of cola<float> or cola<string>. Remember, when compiling cola.cpp, the compiler has no clue which instantiations will be needed; and we can't expect it to compile for every type in order to ensure this problem never happens! (cola<int>, cola<char>, cola<ostream>, cola< cola<int> > ... and so on ...)

The two answers are:

Tell the compiler, at the end of cola.cpp, which particular template classes will be required, forcing it to compile cola<float> and cola<string>.
Put the implementation of the member functions in a header file that will be included every time any other 'translation unit' (such as main.cpp) uses the template class.

Answer 1: Explicitly instantiate the template, and its member definitions

At the end of cola.cpp, you should add lines explicitly instantiating all the relevant templates, such as

template class cola<float>;
template class cola<string>;

and you add the following two lines at the end of nodo_colaypila.cpp:

template class nodo_colaypila<float>;
template class nodo_colaypila<std :: string>;

This will ensure that, when the compiler is compiling cola.cpp that it will explicitly compile all the code for the cola<float> and cola<string> classes. Similarly, nodo_colaypila.cpp contains the implementations of the nodo_colaypila<...> classes.

In this approach, you should ensure that all the of the implementation is placed into one .cpp file (i.e. one translation unit) and that the explicit instantation is placed after the definition of all the functions (i.e. at the end of the file).

Answer 2: Copy the code into the relevant header file

The common answer is to move all the code from the implementation files cola.cpp and nodo_colaypila.cpp into cola.h and nodo_colaypila.h. In the long run, this is more flexible as it means you can use extra instantiations (e.g. cola<char>) without any more work. But it could mean the same functions are compiled many times, once in each translation unit. This is not a big problem, as the linker will correctly ignore the duplicate implementations. But it might slow down the compilation a little.

Summary

The default answer, used by the STL for example and in most of the code that any of us will write, is to put all the implementations in the header files. But in a more private project, you will have more knowledge and control of which particular template classes will be instantiated. In fact, this 'bug' might be seen as a feature, as it stops users of your code from accidentally using instantiations you have not tested for or planned for ("I know this works for cola<float> and cola<string>, if you want to use something else, tell me first and will can verify it works before enabling it.").

Finally, there are three other minor typos in the code in your question:

You are missing an #endif at the end of nodo_colaypila.h
in cola.h nodo_colaypila<T>* ult, pri; should be nodo_colaypila<T> *ult, *pri; - both are pointers.
nodo_colaypila.cpp: The default parameter should be in the header file nodo_colaypila.h, not in this implementation file.

Convert Pixels to Points

Height lines converted into points and pixel (my own formula). Here is an example with a manual entry of 213.67 points in the Row Height field:

213.67  Manual Entry    
  0.45  Add 0.45    
214.12  Subtotal    
213.75  Round to a multiple of 0.75 
213.00  Subtract 0.75 provides manual entry converted by Excel  
284.00  Divide by 0.75 gives the number of pixels of height

Here the manual entry of 213.67 points gives 284 pixels.
Here the manual entry of 213.68 points gives 285 pixels.

(Why 0.45? I do not know but it works.)

How does BitLocker affect performance?

I am talking here from a theoretical point of view; I have not tried BitLocker.

BitLocker uses AES encryption with a 128-bit key. On a Core2 machine, clocked at 2.53 GHz, encryption speed should be about 110 MB/s, using one core. The two cores could process about 220 MB/s, assuming perfect data transfer and core synchronization with no overhead, and that nothing requires the CPU in the same time (that one hell of an assumption, actually). The X25-M G2 is announced at 250 MB/s read bandwidth (that's what the specs say), so, in "ideal" conditions, BitLocker necessarily involves a bit of a slowdown.

However read bandwidth is not that important. It matters when you copy huge files, which is not something that you do very often. In everyday work, access time is much more important: as a developer, you create, write, read and delete many files, but they are all small (most of them are much smaller than one megabyte). This is what makes SSD "snappy". Encryption does not impact access time. So my guess is that any performance degradation will be negligible(*).

(*) Here I assume that Microsoft's developers did their job properly.

How do I read a specified line in a text file?

If your file contains lines with different lengths and you need to read lines often and you need to read it quickly you can make an index of the file by reading it once, saving position of each new line and then when you need to read a line, you just lookup the position of the line in your index, seek there and then you read the line.

If you add new lines to the file you can just add index of new lines and you don't need to reindex it all. Though if your file changes somewhere in a line you have already indexed then you have to reindex.

How do I check if a string is valid JSON in Python?

I came up with an generic, interesting solution to this problem:

class SafeInvocator(object):
    def __init__(self, module):
        self._module = module

    def _safe(self, func):
        def inner(*args, **kwargs):
            try:
                return func(*args, **kwargs)
            except:
                return None

        return inner

    def __getattr__(self, item):
        obj = getattr(self.module, item)
        return self._safe(obj) if hasattr(obj, '__call__') else obj

and you can use it like so:

safe_json = SafeInvocator(json)
text = "{'foo':'bar'}"
item = safe_json.loads(text)
if item:

If you just put a space between the selectors, styles will apply to all children (and children of children) of the first. So in this case, any child element of #main_text with the class name title. If you use > instead of a space, it will only select the direct child of the element, and not children of children, e.g.:

#main_text > .title {
  /* Properties */
}

Either will work in this case, but the first is more typically used.

How to call a vue.js function on page load

You can call this function in beforeMount section of a Vue component: like following:

 ....
 methods:{
     getUnits: function() {...}
 },
 beforeMount(){
    this.getUnits()
 },
 ......

Working fiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/q83bnLrx/1/

There are different lifecycle hooks Vue provide:

I have listed few are :

beforeCreate: Called synchronously after the instance has just been initialized, before data observation and event/watcher setup.
created: Called synchronously after the instance is created. At this stage, the instance has finished processing the options which means the following have been set up: data observation, computed properties, methods, watch/event callbacks. However, the mounting phase has not been started, and the $el property will not be available yet.
beforeMount: Called right before the mounting begins: the render function is about to be called for the first time.
mounted: Called after the instance has just been mounted where el is replaced by the newly created vm.$el.
beforeUpdate: Called when the data changes, before the virtual DOM is re-rendered and patched.
updated: Called after a data change causes the virtual DOM to be re-rendered and patched.

You can have a look at complete list here.

You can choose which hook is most suitable to you and hook it to call you function like the sample code provided above.

PL/pgSQL checking if a row exists

Use count(*)

declare 
   cnt integer;
begin
  SELECT count(*) INTO cnt
  FROM people
  WHERE person_id = my_person_id;

IF cnt > 0 THEN
  -- Do something
END IF;

Edit (for the downvoter who didn't read the statement and others who might be doing something similar)

The solution is only effective because there is a where clause on a column (and the name of the column suggests that its the primary key - so the where clause is highly effective)

Because of that where clause there is no need to use a LIMIT or something else to test the presence of a row that is identified by its primary key. It is an effective way to test this.

ERROR 1115 (42000): Unknown character set: 'utf8mb4'

This can help:

mysqldump --compatible=mysql40 -u user -p DB > dumpfile.sql

PHPMyAdmin has the same MySQL compatibility mode in the 'expert' export options. Although that has on occasions done nothing.

If you don't have access via the command line or via PHPMyAdmin then editing the

/*!50003 SET character_set_client  = utf8mb4 */ ;

bit to read 'utf8' only, is the way to go.

Currency formatting in Python

If you are using OSX and have yet to set your locale module setting this first answer will not work you will receive the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> File "/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/python2.6/locale.py", line 221, in currency
raise ValueError("Currency formatting is not possible using "ValueError: Currency formatting is not possible using the 'C' locale.

To remedy this you will have to do use the following:

locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL, 'en_US')

Why does Git treat this text file as a binary file?

Try using file to view the encoding details (reference):

cd directory/of/interest
file *

It produces useful output like this:

$ file *
CR6Series_stats resaved.dat: ASCII text, with very long lines, with CRLF line terminators
CR6Series_stats utf8.dat:    UTF-8 Unicode (with BOM) text, with very long lines, with CRLF line terminators

How to add multiple columns to pandas dataframe in one assignment?

You could instantiate the values from a dictionary if you wanted different values for each column & you don't mind making a dictionary on the line before.

>>> import pandas as pd
>>> import numpy as np
>>> df = pd.DataFrame({
  'col_1': [0, 1, 2, 3], 
  'col_2': [4, 5, 6, 7]
})
>>> df
   col_1  col_2
0      0      4
1      1      5
2      2      6
3      3      7
>>> cols = {
  'column_new_1':np.nan,
  'column_new_2':'dogs',
  'column_new_3': 3
}
>>> df[list(cols)] = pd.DataFrame(data={k:[v]*len(df) for k,v in cols.items()})
>>> df
   col_1  col_2  column_new_1 column_new_2  column_new_3
0      0      4           NaN         dogs             3
1      1      5           NaN         dogs             3
2      2      6           NaN         dogs             3
3      3      7           NaN         dogs             3

Not necessarily better than the accepted answer, but it's another approach not yet listed.

Android Emulator: Installation error: INSTALL_FAILED_VERSION_DOWNGRADE

It may be a problem with the Google Play Services dependencies rather than an actual app version issue.

Sometimes, it is NOT the case that:

a) there is an existing version of the app installed, newer or not b) there is an existing version of the app installed on another user account on the device

So the error message is just bogus.

In my case, I had:

implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-maps:16.0.0'
implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:16.0.0'
implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-gcm:16.0.0'

But when I tried

implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-maps:17.0.0'
implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:17.0.0'
implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-gcm:17.0.0'

I got androidX related errors, as I had not yet upgraded to androidX and was not ready to do so. I found that using the latest 16.x.y versions work and I don't get the error message any more. Furthermore, I could wait till later when I am ready, to upgrade to androidX.

implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-maps:16.+'
implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:16.+'
implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-gcm:16.+'

SQL Server Error : String or binary data would be truncated

this type of error generally occurs when you have to put characters or values more than that you have specified in Database table like in this case: you specify transaction_status varchar(10) but you actually trying to store
_transaction_status which contain 19 characters. that's why you faced this type of error in this code..

Unable to begin a distributed transaction

If the servers are clustered and there is a clustered DTC you have to disable security on the clustered DTC not the local DTC.

Git command to checkout any branch and overwrite local changes

git reset and git clean can be overkill in some situations (and be a huge waste of time).

If you simply have a message like "The following untracked files would be overwritten..." and you want the remote/origin/upstream to overwrite those conflicting untracked files, then git checkout -f <branch> is the best option.

If you're like me, your other option was to clean and perform a --hard reset then recompile your project.

MySQL - Get row number on select

You can use MySQL variables to do it. Something like this should work (though, it consists of two queries).

SELECT 0 INTO @x;

SELECT itemID, 
       COUNT(*) AS ordercount, 
       (@x:=@x+1) AS rownumber 
FROM orders 
GROUP BY itemID 
ORDER BY ordercount DESC;

How to fix "ImportError: No module named ..." error in Python?

Example solution for adding the library to your PYTHONPATH.

Add the following line into your ~/.bashrc or just run it directly:
```
export PYTHONPATH="$PYTHONPATH:$HOME/.python"
```
Then link your required library into your ~/.python folder, e.g.
```
ln -s /home/user/work/project/foo ~/.python/
```

Can table columns with a Foreign Key be NULL?

Yes, you can enforce the constraint only when the value is not NULL. This can be easily tested with the following example:

CREATE DATABASE t;
USE t;

CREATE TABLE parent (id INT NOT NULL,
                     PRIMARY KEY (id)
) ENGINE=INNODB;

CREATE TABLE child (id INT NULL, 
                    parent_id INT NULL,
                    FOREIGN KEY (parent_id) REFERENCES parent(id)
) ENGINE=INNODB;


INSERT INTO child (id, parent_id) VALUES (1, NULL);
-- Query OK, 1 row affected (0.01 sec)


INSERT INTO child (id, parent_id) VALUES (2, 1);

-- ERROR 1452 (23000): Cannot add or update a child row: a foreign key 
-- constraint fails (`t/child`, CONSTRAINT `child_ibfk_1` FOREIGN KEY
-- (`parent_id`) REFERENCES `parent` (`id`))

The first insert will pass because we insert a NULL in the parent_id. The second insert fails because of the foreign key constraint, since we tried to insert a value that does not exist in the parent table.

Using an HTML button to call a JavaScript function

silly way:

onclick="javascript:CapacityChart();"

You should read about discrete javascript, and use a frameworks bind method to bind callbacks to dom events.

How to unset a JavaScript variable?

You cannot delete a variable if you declared it (with var x;) at the time of first use. However, if your variable x first appeared in the script without a declaration, then you can use the delete operator (delete x;) and your variable will be deleted, very similar to deleting an element of an array or deleting a property of an object.

Can regular expressions be used to match nested patterns?

Yes, if it is .NET RegEx-engine. .Net engine supports finite state machine supplied with an external stack. see details

How can I iterate over files in a given directory?

You can use glob for referring the directory and the list :

import glob
import os

#to get the current working directory name
cwd = os.getcwd()
#Load the images from images folder.
for f in glob.glob('images\*.jpg'):   
    dir_name = get_dir_name(f)
    image_file_name = dir_name + '.jpg'
    #To print the file name with path (path will be in string)
    print (image_file_name)

To get the list of all directory in array you can use os :

os.listdir(directory)

Removing duplicate elements from an array in Swift

ojdbc14.jar vs. ojdbc6.jar

I have same problem!

Found following in oracle site link text

As mentioned above, the 11.1 drivers by default convert SQL DATE to Timestamp when reading from the database. This always was the right thing to do and the change in 9i was a mistake. The 11.1 drivers have reverted to the correct behavior. Even if you didn't set V8Compatible in your application you shouldn't see any difference in behavior in most cases. You may notice a difference if you use getObject to read a DATE column. The result will be a Timestamp rather than a Date. Since Timestamp is a subclass of Date this generally isn't a problem. Where you might notice a difference is if you relied on the conversion from DATE to Date to truncate the time component or if you do toString on the value. Otherwise the change should be transparent.

If for some reason your app is very sensitive to this change and you simply must have the 9i-10g behavior, there is a connection property you can set. Set mapDateToTimestamp to false and the driver will revert to the default 9i-10g behavior and map DATE to Date.

How do I give PHP write access to a directory?

Best way in giving write access to a directory..

$dst = "path/to/directory";
mkdir($dst); 
chown($dst, "ownername");
chgrp($dst, "groupname");
exec ("find ".$dst." -type d -exec chmod 0777 {} +");

Save matplotlib file to a directory

The simplest way to do this is as follows:

save_results_to = '/Users/S/Desktop/Results/'
plt.savefig(save_results_to + 'image.png', dpi = 300)

The image is going to be saved in the save_results_to directory with name image.png

Hide div by default and show it on click with bootstrap

I realize this question is a bit dated and since it shows up on Google search for similar issue I thought I will expand a little bit more on top of @CowWarrior's answer. I was looking for somewhat similar solution, and after scouring through countless SO question/answers and Bootstrap documentations the solution was pretty simple. Again, this would be using inbuilt Bootstrap collapse class to show/hide divs and Bootstrap's "Collapse Event".

What I realized is that it is easy to do it using a Bootstrap Accordion, but most of the time even though the functionality required is "somewhat" similar to an Accordion, it's different in a way that one would want to show hide <div> based on, lets say, menu buttons on a navbar. Below is a simple solution to this. The anchor tags (<a>) could be navbar items and based on a collapse event the corresponding div will replace the existing div. It looks slightly sloppy in CodeSnippet, but it is pretty close to achieving the functionality-

All that the JavaScript does is makes all the other <div> hide using

$(".main-container.collapse").not($(this)).collapse('hide');

when the loaded <div> is displayed by checking the Collapse event shown.bs.collapse. Here's the Bootstrap documentation on Collapse Event.

Note: main-container is just a custom class.

Here it goes-

_x000D_

$(".main-container.collapse").on('shown.bs.collapse', function () {    _x000D_
//when a collapsed div is shown hide all other collapsible divs that are visible_x000D_
       $(".main-container.collapse").not($(this)).collapse('hide');_x000D_
});

How do I open an .exe from another C++ .exe?

Provide the full path of the file openfile.exe and remember not to put forward slash / in the path such as c:/users/username/etc.... instead of that use c:\\Users\\username\etc (for windows)

May be this will help you.

How to dock "Tool Options" to "Toolbox"?

In the detached window (Tool Options), the name of the view (Paintbrush) is a grab-bar.

Put your cursor over the grab-bar, click and drag it to the dock area in the main window in order to reattach it to the main window.

Simple file write function in C++

This is a place in which C++ has a strange rule. Before being able to compile a call to a function the compiler must know the function name, return value and all parameters. This can be done by adding a "prototype". In your case this simply means adding before main the following line:

int writeFile();

this tells the compiler that there exist a function named writeFile that will be defined somewhere, that returns an int and that accepts no parameters.

Alternatively you can define first the function writeFile and then main because in this case when the compiler gets to main already knows your function.

Note that this requirement of knowing in advance the functions being called is not always applied. For example for class members defined inline it's not required...

struct Foo {
    void bar() {
        if (baz() != 99) {
            std::cout << "Hey!";
        }
    }

    int baz() {
        return 42;
    }
};

In this case the compiler has no problem analyzing the definition of bar even if it depends on a function baz that is declared later in the source code.

How to save image in database using C#

Try this method. It should work when field when you want to store image is of type byte. First it creates byte[] for image. Then it saves it to the DB using IDataParameter of type binary.

using System.Drawing;
using System.Drawing.Imaging;
using System.Data;

    public static void PerisitImage(string path, IDbConnection connection)
    {
        using (var command = connection.CreateCommand ())
        {
            Image img = Image.FromFile (path);
            MemoryStream tmpStream = new MemoryStream();
            img.Save (tmpStream, ImageFormat.Png); // change to other format
            tmpStream.Seek (0, SeekOrigin.Begin);
            byte[] imgBytes = new byte[MAX_IMG_SIZE];
            tmpStream.Read (imgBytes, 0, MAX_IMG_SIZE);

            command.CommandText = "INSERT INTO images(payload) VALUES (:payload)";
            IDataParameter par = command.CreateParameter();
            par.ParameterName = "payload";
            par.DbType = DbType.Binary;
            par.Value = imgBytes;
            command.Parameters.Add(par);
            command.ExecuteNonQuery ();
        }
    }

Error:Execution failed for task ':app:processDebugResources'. > java.io.IOException: Could not delete folder "" in android studio

I guess some of the files in the target build directory is open in another tool you use. Just a file handle open in the folder which has to be cleaned. The build task 'clean' wants to delete all the files in the build directory(normally 'target') and when it fails, the build fails.

Class has been compiled by a more recent version of the Java Environment

I had a similar issue from the console after building a Jar in Intellij. Using the Java configuration to update to a newer version (Windows -> Configure Java -> Update -> Update Now) didn't work and stuck at version 1.8 (Java 8).

To switch to a more recent version locally I had to install the Java 15 JDK from https://www.oracle.com/uk/java/technologies/javase-jdk15-downloads.html and add that to my Java runtime environment settings.

No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it (PHP / WAMP)

I'm having the same problem with Wampserver. It’s worked for me:

You must change this file: "C:\wamp\bin\mysql[mysql_version]\my.ini" For example: "C:\wamp\bin\mysql[mysql5.6.12]\my.ini"

And change default port 3306 to 80. (Lines 20 & 27, in both)

port = 3306 To port = 80

I hope this is helpful.

Adding Lombok plugin to IntelliJ project

I just found how.

I delete the first occurrence of lombok @Slf4j or log where the compiler complains, and wait for the warning(the red bubble) of IDEA, suggesting "add the lombok.extern.Slf4j.jar to classpath". Since then all goes well. It seems IDEA likes to complain about lombok.

"Invalid JSON primitive" in Ajax processing

I had the same issue. I was calling parent page "Save" from Popup window Close. Found that I was using ClientIDMode="Static" on both parent and popup page with same control id. Removing ClientIDMode="Static" from one of the pages solved the issue.

How to iterate std::set?

Just use the * before it:

set<unsigned long>::iterator it;
for (it = myset.begin(); it != myset.end(); ++it) {
    cout << *it;
}

This dereferences it and allows you to access the element the iterator is currently on.

Is it necessary to write HEAD, BODY and HTML tags?

Firebug shows this correctly because your Browser automagically fixes the bad markup for you. This behaviour is not specified anywhere and can (will) vary from browser to browser. Those tags are required by the DOCTYPE you're using and should not be omitted.

The html element is the root element of every html page. If you look at all other elements' description it says where an element can be used (and almost all elements require either head or body).

Does --disable-web-security Work In Chrome Anymore?

just run this command from command prompt and it will launch chrome instance with CORS disabled:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe" --disable-web-security --disable-gpu --user-data-dir=~/chromeTemp

Access Enum value using EL with JSTL

For this purposes I do the following:

<c:set var="abc">
    <%=Status.OLD.getStatus()%>
</c:set>

<c:if test="${someVariable == abc}">
    ....
</c:if>

It's looks ugly, but works!

How to permanently remove few commits from remote branch

Important: Make sure you specify which branches on "git push -f" or you might inadvertently modify other branches!^[*]

There are three options shown in this tutorial. In case the link breaks I'll leave the main steps here.

Revert the full commit
Delete the last commit
Delete commit from a list

1 Revert the full commit

git revert dd61ab23

2 Delete the last commit

git push <<remote>> +dd61ab23^:<<BRANCH_NAME_HERE>>

or, if the branch is available locally

git reset HEAD^ --hard
git push <<remote>> -f

where +dd61... is your commit hash and git interprets x^ as the parent of x, and + as a forced non-fastforwared push.

3 Delete the commit from a list

git rebase -i dd61ab23^

This will open and editor showing a list of all commits. Delete the one you want to get rid off. Finish the rebase and push force to repo.

git rebase --continue
git push <remote_repo> <remote_branch> -f

How to check if a line has one of the strings in a list?

This still loops through the cartesian product of the two lists, but it does it one line:

>>> lines1 = ['soup', 'butter', 'venison']
>>> lines2 = ['prune', 'rye', 'turkey']
>>> search_strings = ['a', 'b', 'c']
>>> any(s in l for l in lines1 for s in search_strings)
True
>>> any(s in l for l in lines2 for s in search_strings)
False

This also have the advantage that any short-circuits, and so the looping stops as soon as a match is found. Also, this only finds the first occurrence of a string from search_strings in linesX. If you want to find multiple occurrences you could do something like this:

>>> lines3 = ['corn', 'butter', 'apples']
>>> [(s, l) for l in lines3 for s in search_strings if s in l]
[('c', 'corn'), ('b', 'butter'), ('a', 'apples')]

If you feel like coding something more complex, it seems the Aho-Corasick algorithm can test for the presence of multiple substrings in a given input string. (Thanks to Niklas B. for pointing that out.) I still think it would result in quadratic performance for your use-case since you'll still have to call it multiple times to search multiple lines. However, it would beat the above (cubic, on average) algorithm.

Is there a kind of Firebug or JavaScript console debug for Android?

Try js-mobile-console

MobileConsole can be embedded within any page for debugging. It will catch errors and behave exactly as the native JavaScript console in the browser. It also outputs all the logs you've written via an API of window.console.

Maven home (M2_HOME) not being picked up by IntelliJ IDEA

If M2_HOME is configured to point to the Maven home directory then:

Go to File -> Settings
Search for Maven
Select Runner
Insert in the field VM Options the following string:
```
Dmaven.multiModuleProjectDirectory=$M2_HOME
```

Click Apply and OK

C# List<string> to string with delimiter

You can use String.Join. If you have a List<string> then you can call ToArray first:

List<string> names = new List<string>() { "John", "Anna", "Monica" };
var result = String.Join(", ", names.ToArray());

In .NET 4 you don't need the ToArray anymore, since there is an overload of String.Join that takes an IEnumerable<string>.

Results:

John, Anna, Monica

POST request via RestTemplate in JSON

Why work harder than you have to? postForEntity accepts a simple Map object as input. The following works fine for me while writing tests for a given REST endpoint in Spring. I believe it's the simplest possible way of making a JSON POST request in Spring:

@Test
public void shouldLoginSuccessfully() {
  // 'restTemplate' below has been @Autowired prior to this
  Map map = new HashMap<String, String>();
  map.put("username", "bob123");
  map.put("password", "myP@ssw0rd");
  ResponseEntity<Void> resp = restTemplate.postForEntity(
      "http://localhost:8000/login",
      map,
      Void.class);
  assertThat(resp.getStatusCode()).isEqualTo(HttpStatus.OK);
}

Using ffmpeg to change framerate

Tomcat: How to find out running tomcat version

One can run on subtle weird behaviors due to (operating system) environment variables and (Java) system properties being set to unexpected values. I had a situation where due to an outdated Tomcat setenv.sh, A Tomcat 8 started with classes from a Tomcat 7 on the classpath. Make sure that in the process command line options such as -Dcatalina.base, -Dcatalina.home and -classpath make sense.

How do I get the current time zone of MySQL?

My PHP framework uses

SET LOCAL time_zone='Whatever'

on after connect, where 'Whatever' == date_default_timezone_get()

Not my solution, but this ensures SYSTEM timezone of MySQL server is always the same as PHP's one

So, yes, PHP is strongly envolved and can affect it

How can I return pivot table output in MySQL?

There is a tool called MySQL Pivot table generator, it can help you create web based pivot table that you can later export to excel(if you like). it can work if your data is in a single table or in several tables .

All you need to do is to specify the data source of the columns (it supports dynamic columns), rows , the values in the body of the table and table relationship (if there are any) MySQL Pivot Table

The home page of this tool is http://mysqlpivottable.net

Visual Studio 2013 error MS8020 Build tools v140 cannot be found

That's the platform toolset for VS2015. You uninstalled it, therefore it is no longer available.

To change your Platform Toolset:

Right click your project, go to Properties.
Under Configuration Properties, go to General.
Change your Platform Toolset to one of the available ones.

Changing width property of a :before css selector using JQuery

I don't think there's a jQuery-way to directly access the pseudoclass' rules, but you could always append a new style element to the document's head like:

$('head').append('<style>.column:before{width:800px !important;}</style>');

See a live demo here

I also remember having seen a plugin that tackles this issue once but I couldn't find it on first googling unfortunately.

Write HTML to string

Use an XDocument to create the DOM, then write it out using an XmlWriter. This will give you a wonderfully concise and readable notation as well as nicely formatted output.

Take this sample program:

using System.Xml;
using System.Xml.Linq;

class Program {
    static void Main() {
        var xDocument = new XDocument(
            new XDocumentType("html", null, null, null),
            new XElement("html",
                new XElement("head"),
                new XElement("body",
                    new XElement("p",
                        "This paragraph contains ", new XElement("b", "bold"), " text."
                    ),
                    new XElement("p",
                        "This paragraph has just plain text."
                    )
                )
            )
        );

        var settings = new XmlWriterSettings {
            OmitXmlDeclaration = true, Indent = true, IndentChars = "\t"
        };
        using (var writer = XmlWriter.Create(@"C:\Users\wolf\Desktop\test.html", settings)) {
            xDocument.WriteTo(writer);
        }
    }
}

This generates the following output:

<!DOCTYPE html >
<html>
    <head />
    <body>
        <p>This paragraph contains <b>bold</b> text.</p>
        <p>This paragraph has just plain text.</p>
    </body>
</html>

            var t = dt1.Subtract(dt2);
            //int temp = Convert.ToInt32(t.Hours);
            //temp = temp / 2;
            lblHours.Text =t.Hours.ToString() + ":" + t.Minutes.ToString();

        }
        else if (Fromtime == "AM" && Totime == "PM")
        {
            var dt1 = DateTime.Parse("1900-01-01 " + txtfromtime.Text.Trim());
            var dt2 = DateTime.Parse("1900-01-01 " + txttotime.Text.Trim());
            TimeSpan t = (dt2.Subtract(dt1));
            lblHours.Text = t.Hours.ToString() + ":" + t.Minutes.ToString();
        }

Git reset single file in feature branch to be the same as in master

If you want to revert the file to its state in master:

git checkout origin/master [filename]

How do I compile and run a program in Java on my Mac?

Other solutions are good enough to answer your query. However, if you are looking for just one command to do that for you -

Create a file name "run", in directory where your Java files are. And save this in your file -

javac "$1.java"
if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then
  echo "--------Run output-------"
  java "$1"
fi

give this file run permission by running -

chmod 777

Now you can run any of your files by merely running -

./run <yourfilename> (don't add .java in filename)

How to deal with "java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space" error?

Easy way to solve OutOfMemoryError in java is to increase the maximum heap size by using JVM options -Xmx512M, this will immediately solve your OutOfMemoryError. This is my preferred solution when I get OutOfMemoryError in Eclipse, Maven or ANT while building project because based upon size of project you can easily ran out of Memory.

Here is an example of increasing maximum heap size of JVM, Also its better to keep -Xmx to -Xms ration either 1:1 or 1:1.5 if you are setting heap size in your java application.

export JVM_ARGS="-Xms1024m -Xmx1024m"

Jquery check if element is visible in viewport

According to the documentation for that plugin, .visible() returns a boolean indicating if the element is visible. So you'd use it like this:

if ($('#element').visible(true)) {
    // The element is visible, do something
} else {
    // The element is NOT visible, do something else
}

Find duplicate records in MySQL

To quickly see the duplicate rows you can run a single simple query

Here I am querying the table and listing all duplicate rows with same user_id, market_place and sku:

select user_id, market_place,sku, count(id)as totals from sku_analytics group by user_id, market_place,sku having count(id)>1;

To delete the duplicate row you have to decide which row you want to delete. Eg the one with lower id (usually older) or maybe some other date information. In my case I just want to delete the lower id since the newer id is latest information.

First double check if the right records will be deleted. Here I am selecting the record among duplicates which will be deleted (by unique id).

select a.user_id, a.market_place,a.sku from sku_analytics a inner join sku_analytics b where a.id< b.id and a.user_id= b.user_id and a.market_place= b.market_place and a.sku = b.sku;

Then I run the delete query to delete the dupes:

delete a from sku_analytics a inner join sku_analytics b where a.id< b.id and a.user_id= b.user_id and a.market_place= b.market_place and a.sku = b.sku;

Backup, Double check, verify, verify backup then execute.

What is so bad about singletons?

It blurs the separation of concerns.

Supposed that you have a singleton, you can call this instance from anywhere inside your class. Your class is no longer as pure as it should be. Your class will now no longer operate on its members and the members that it receives explicitly. This will create confusion, because the users of the class don't know what is the sufficient information the class needs. The whole idea of encapsulation is to hide the how of a method from the users, but if a singleton is used inside the method, one will have to know the state of the singleton in order to use the method correctly. This is anti-OOP.

Memory address of an object in C#

You can use GCHandleType.Weak instead of Pinned. On the other hand, there is another way to get a pointer to an object:

object o = new object();
TypedReference tr = __makeref(o);
IntPtr ptr = **(IntPtr**)(&tr);

Requires unsafe block and is very, very dangerous and should not be used at all. ?

Back in the day when by-ref locals weren't possible in C#, there was one undocumented mechanism that could accomplish a similar thing – __makeref.

object o = new object();
ref object r = ref o;
//roughly equivalent to
TypedReference tr = __makeref(o);

There is one important difference in that TypedReference is "generic"; it can be used to store a reference to a variable of any type. Accessing such a reference requires to specify its type, e.g. __refvalue(tr, object), and if it doesn't match, an exception is thrown.

To implement the type checking, TypedReference must have two fields, one with the actual address to the variable, and one with a pointer to its type representation. It just so happens that the address is the first field.

Therefore, __makeref is used first to obtain a reference to the variable o. The cast (IntPtr**)(&tr) treats the structure as an array (represented via a pointer) of IntPtr* (pointers to a generic pointer type), accessed via a pointer to it. The pointer is first dereferenced to obtain the first field, then the pointer there is dereferenced again to obtain the value actually stored in the variable o – the pointer to the object itself.

However, since 2012, I have come up with a better and safer solution:

public static class ReferenceHelpers
{
    public static readonly Action<object, Action<IntPtr>> GetPinnedPtr;

    static ReferenceHelpers()
    {
        var dyn = new DynamicMethod("GetPinnedPtr", typeof(void), new[] { typeof(object), typeof(Action<IntPtr>) }, typeof(ReferenceHelpers).Module);
        var il = dyn.GetILGenerator();
        il.DeclareLocal(typeof(object), true);
        il.Emit(OpCodes.Ldarg_0);
        il.Emit(OpCodes.Stloc_0);
        il.Emit(OpCodes.Ldarg_1);
        il.Emit(OpCodes.Ldloc_0);
        il.Emit(OpCodes.Conv_I);
        il.Emit(OpCodes.Call, typeof(Action<IntPtr>).GetMethod("Invoke"));
        il.Emit(OpCodes.Ret);
        GetPinnedPtr = (Action<object, Action<IntPtr>>)dyn.CreateDelegate(typeof(Action<object, Action<IntPtr>>));
    }
}

This creates a dynamic method that first pins the object (so its storage doesn't move in the managed heap), then executes a delegate that receives its address. During the execution of the delegate, the object is still pinned and thus safe to be manipulated via the pointer:

object o = new object();
ReferenceHelpers.GetPinnedPtr(o, ptr => Console.WriteLine(Marshal.ReadIntPtr(ptr) == typeof(object).TypeHandle.Value)); //the first pointer in the managed object header in .NET points to its run-time type info

This is the easiest way to pin an object, since GCHandle requires the type to be blittable in order to pin it. It has the advantage of not using implementation details, undocumented keywords and memory hacking.

Cron job every three days

I don't think you have what you need with:

0 0 */3 * * ## <<< WARNING!!! CAUSES UNEVEN INTERVALS AT END OF MONTH!!

Unfortunately, the */3 is setting the interval on every n day of the month and not every n days. See: explanation here. At the end of the month there is recurring issue guaranteed.

1st  at 2019-02-01 00:00:00
then at 2019-02-04 00:00:00 << 3 days, etc. OK
then at 2019-02-07 00:00:00
...
then at 2019-02-25 00:00:00
then at 2019-01-28 00:00:00
then at 2019-03-01 00:00:00 << 1 day WRONG
then at 2019-03-04 00:00:00
...

According to this article, you need to add some modulo math to the command being executed to get a TRUE "every N days". For example:

0 0 * * *  bash -c '(( $(date +\%s) / 86400 \% 3 == 0 )) && runmyjob.sh

In this example, the job will be checked daily at 12:00 AM, but will only execute when the number of days since 01-01-1970 modulo 3 is 0.

If you want it to be every 3 days from a specific date, use the following format:

0 0 * * *  bash -c '(( $(date +\%s -d "2019-01-01") / 86400 \% 3 == 0 )) && runmyjob.sh

Angular 2.0 and Modal Dialog

Angular 2 and up
Bootstrap css (animation is preserved)
NO JQuery
NO bootstrap.js
Supports custom modal content (just like accepted answer)
Recently added support for multiple modals on top of each other.

@Component({
  selector: 'app-component',
  template: `
  <button type="button" (click)="modal.show()">test</button>
  <app-modal #modal>
    <div class="app-modal-header">
      header
    </div>
    <div class="app-modal-body">
      Whatever content you like, form fields, anything
    </div>
    <div class="app-modal-footer">
      <button type="button" class="btn btn-default" (click)="modal.hide()">Close</button>
      <button type="button" class="btn btn-primary">Save changes</button>
    </div>
  </app-modal>
  `
})
export class AppComponent {
}

@Component({
  selector: 'app-modal',
  template: `
  <div (click)="onContainerClicked($event)" class="modal fade" tabindex="-1" [ngClass]="{'in': visibleAnimate}"
       [ngStyle]="{'display': visible ? 'block' : 'none', 'opacity': visibleAnimate ? 1 : 0}">
    <div class="modal-dialog">
      <div class="modal-content">
        <div class="modal-header">
          <ng-content select=".app-modal-header"></ng-content>
        </div>
        <div class="modal-body">
          <ng-content select=".app-modal-body"></ng-content>
        </div>
        <div class="modal-footer">
          <ng-content select=".app-modal-footer"></ng-content>
        </div>
      </div>
    </div>
  </div>
  `
})
export class ModalComponent {

  public visible = false;
  public visibleAnimate = false;

  public show(): void {
    this.visible = true;
    setTimeout(() => this.visibleAnimate = true, 100);
  }

  public hide(): void {
    this.visibleAnimate = false;
    setTimeout(() => this.visible = false, 300);
  }

  public onContainerClicked(event: MouseEvent): void {
    if ((<HTMLElement>event.target).classList.contains('modal')) {
      this.hide();
    }
  }
}

To show the backdrop, you'll need something like this CSS:

.modal {
  background: rgba(0,0,0,0.6);
}

The example now allows for multiple modals at the same time. (see the onContainerClicked() method).

For Bootstrap 4 css users, you need to make 1 minor change (because a css class name was updated from Bootstrap 3). This line: [ngClass]="{'in': visibleAnimate}" should be changed to: [ngClass]="{'show': visibleAnimate}"

To demonstrate, here is a plunkr

How unique is UUID?

Been doing it for years. Never run into a problem.

I usually set up my DB's to have one table that contains all the keys and the modified dates and such. Haven't run into a problem of duplicate keys ever.

The only drawback that it has is when you are writing some queries to find some information quickly you are doing a lot of copying and pasting of the keys. You don't have the short easy to remember ids anymore.

How do I find the stack trace in Visual Studio?

Do you mean finding a stack trace of the thrown exception location? That's either Debug/Exceptions, or better - Ctrl-Alt-E. Set filters for the exceptions you want to break on.

There's even a way to reconstruct the thrower stack after the exception was caught, but it's really unpleasant. Much, much easier to set a break on the throw.

Node.js + Nginx - What now?

You can run nodejs using pm2 if you want to manage each microservice means and run it. Node will be running in a port right just configure that port in nginx(/etc/nginx/sites-enabled/domain.com)

server{
    listen 80;
    server_name domain.com www.domain.com;

  location / {
     return 403;
  }
    location /url {
        proxy_pass http://localhost:51967/info;
    }
}

Check whether localhost is running or not by using ping.

And

Create one single Node.js server which handles all Node.js requests. This reads the requested files and evals their contents. So the files are interpreted on each request, but the server logic is much simpler.

This is best and as you said easier too

How do disable paging by swiping with finger in ViewPager but still be able to swipe programmatically?

here is my implementation
that if you want to disable the swipe animation you can you use the swipeListener left and right and still want the scroll by finger but without animation

1-Override Viewpager method onInterceptTouchEvent and onTouchEvent

2- create your own GestureDetector

3- detect the swipe gesture and use the setCurrentItem(item, false)

C# Lambda expressions: Why should I use them?

You can also find the use of lambda expressions in writing generic codes to act on your methods.

For example: Generic function to calculate the time taken by a method call. (i.e. Action in here)

public static long Measure(Action action)
{
    Stopwatch sw = new Stopwatch();
    sw.Start();
    action();
    sw.Stop();
    return sw.ElapsedMilliseconds;
}

And you can call the above method using the lambda expression as follows,

var timeTaken = Measure(() => yourMethod(param));

Expression allows you to get return value from your method and out param as well

var timeTaken = Measure(() => returnValue = yourMethod(param, out outParam));

Comparing Arrays of Objects in JavaScript

Honestly, with 8 objects max and 8 properties max per object, your best bet is to just traverse each object and make the comparisons directly. It'll be fast and it'll be easy.

If you're going to be using these types of comparisons often, then I agree with Jason about JSON serialization...but otherwise there's no need to slow down your app with a new library or JSON serialization code.

How to convert column with string type to int form in pyspark data frame?

You could use cast(as int) after replacing NaN with 0,

data_df = df.withColumn("Plays", df.call_time.cast('float'))

List append() in for loop

The list.append function does not return any value(but None), it just adds the value to the list you are using to call that method.

In the first loop round you will assign None (because the no-return of append) to a, then in the second round it will try to call a.append, as a is None it will raise the Exception you are seeing

You just need to change it to:

a=[]
for i in range(5):    
    a.append(i)
print(a)
# [0, 1, 2, 3, 4]

list.append is what is called a mutating or destructive method, i.e. it will destroy or mutate the previous object into a new one(or a new state).

If you would like to create a new list based in one list without destroying or mutating it you can do something like this:

a=['a', 'b', 'c']
result = a + ['d']

print result
# ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd']

print a
# ['a', 'b', 'c']

As a corollary only, you can mimic the append method by doing the following:

a=['a', 'b', 'c']
a = a + ['d']

print a
# ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd']

How to trigger click event on href element

I do not have factual evidence to prove this but I already ran into this issue. It seems that triggering a click() event on an <a> tag doesn't seem to behave the same way you would expect with say, a input button.

The workaround I employed was to set the location.href property on the window which causes the browser to load the request resource like so:

$(document).ready(function()
{
      var href = $('.cssbuttongo').attr('href');
      window.location.href = href; //causes the browser to refresh and load the requested url
   });
});

Edit:

I would make a js fiddle but the nature of the question intermixed with how jsfiddle uses an iframe to render code makes that a no go.

Show how many characters remaining in a HTML text box using JavaScript

How about this approach, which splits the problem into two parts:

Using jQuery, it shows a decrementing counter below the textarea, which turns red when it hits zero but still allows the user to type.
I use a separate string length validator (server and client-side) to actually prevent submission of the form if the number of chatacters in the textarea is greater than 160.

My textarea has an id of Message, and the span in which I display the number of remaining characters has an id of counter. The css class of error gets applied when the number of remaining characters hits zero.

var charactersAllowed = 160;

$(document).ready(function () {
    $('#Message').keyup(function () {
        var left = charactersAllowed - $(this).val().length;
        if (left < 0) {
            $('#counter').addClass('error');
            left = 0;
        }
        else {
            $('#counter').removeClass('error');
        }
        $('#counter').text('Characters left: ' + left);
    });
});

"git pull" or "git merge" between master and development branches

my rule of thumb is:

rebase for branches with the same name, merge otherwise.

examples for same names would be master, origin/master and otherRemote/master.

if develop exists only in the local repository, and it is always based on a recent origin/master commit, you should call it master, and work there directly. it simplifies your life, and presents things as they actually are: you are directly developing on the master branch.

if develop is shared, it should not be rebased on master, just merged back into it with --no-ff. you are developing on develop. master and develop have different names, because we want them to be different things, and stay separate. do not make them same with rebase.

generate random double numbers in c++

This snippet is straight from Stroustrup's The C++ Programming Language (4th Edition), §40.7; it requires C++11:

#include <functional>
#include <random>

class Rand_double
{
public:
    Rand_double(double low, double high)
    :r(std::bind(std::uniform_real_distribution<>(low,high),std::default_random_engine())){}

    double operator()(){ return r(); }

private:
    std::function<double()> r;
};

#include <iostream>    
int main() {
    // create the random number generator:
    Rand_double rd{0,0.5};

    // print 10 random number between 0 and 0.5
    for (int i=0;i<10;++i){
        std::cout << rd() << ' ';
    }
    return 0;
}

CSS Box Shadow Bottom Only

try this to get the box-shadow under your full control.

    <html>

    <head>
        <style> 
            div {
                width:300px;
                height:100px;
                background-color:yellow;
                box-shadow: 0 10px black inset,0 -10px red inset, -10px 0 blue inset, 10px 0 green inset;
           }
        </style>
    </head>
    <body>
        <div>
        </div>
    </body>

    </html>

this would apply to outer box-shadow as well.

HMAC-SHA256 Algorithm for signature calculation

Try this

Sorry for being late, I have tried all above answers but none of them is giving me correct value, After doing the lot of R&D I have found a simple way that gives me exact value.

Declare this method in your class

private String hmacSha(String KEY, String VALUE, String SHA_TYPE) {
try {
    SecretKeySpec signingKey = new SecretKeySpec(KEY.getBytes("UTF-8"), SHA_TYPE);
    Mac mac = Mac.getInstance(SHA_TYPE);
    mac.init(signingKey);
    byte[] rawHmac = mac.doFinal(VALUE.getBytes("UTF-8"));
    byte[] hexArray = {(byte)'0', (byte)'1', (byte)'2', (byte)'3', (byte)'4', (byte)'5', (byte)'6', (byte)'7', (byte)'8', (byte)'9', (byte)'a', (byte)'b', (byte)'c', (byte)'d', (byte)'e', (byte)'f'};
    byte[] hexChars = new byte[rawHmac.length * 2];
    for ( int j = 0; j < rawHmac.length; j++ ) {
        int v = rawHmac[j] & 0xFF;
        hexChars[j * 2] = hexArray[v >>> 4];
        hexChars[j * 2 + 1] = hexArray[v & 0x0F];
    }
    return new String(hexChars);
}
catch (Exception ex) {
    throw new RuntimeException(ex);
}

}

Use this like

Log.e("TAG", "onCreate: "+hmacSha("key","text","HmacSHA256"));

How to check if a user is logged in (how to properly use user.is_authenticated)?

Update for Django 1.10+:

is_authenticated is now an attribute in Django 1.10.

The method was removed in Django 2.0.

For Django 1.9 and older:

is_authenticated is a function. You should call it like

if request.user.is_authenticated():
    # do something if the user is authenticated

As Peter Rowell pointed out, what may be tripping you up is that in the default Django template language, you don't tack on parenthesis to call functions. So you may have seen something like this in template code:

{% if user.is_authenticated %}

However, in Python code, it is indeed a method in the User class.

How do I get a list of installed CPAN modules?

Here's a Perl one-liner that will print out a list of installed modules:

perl -MExtUtils::Installed -MData::Dumper -e  'my ($inst) = ExtUtils::Installed->new(); print Dumper($inst->modules());'

Just make sure you have Data::Dumper installed.

Detecting a long press with Android

Here is an approach, based on MSquare's nice idea for detecting a long press of a button, that has an additional feature: not only is an operation performed in response to a long press, but the operation is repeated until a MotionEvent.ACTION_UP message is received. In this case, the long-press and short-press actions are the same, but they could be different.

Note that, as others have reported, removing the callback in response to a MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE message prevented the callback from ever getting executed since I could not keep my finger still enough. I got around that problem by ignoring that message.

private void setIncrementButton() {
    final Button btn = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btn);
    final Runnable repeater = new Runnable() {
        @Override
        public void run() {
            increment();
            final int milliseconds = 100;
            btn.postDelayed(this, milliseconds);
        }
    };
    btn.setOnTouchListener(new View.OnTouchListener() {
        @Override
        public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent e) {
            if (e.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN) {
                increment();
                v.postDelayed(repeater, ViewConfiguration.getLongPressTimeout());
            } else if (e.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_UP) {
                v.removeCallbacks(repeater);
            }
            return true;
        }
    });
}

private void increment() {
    Log.v("Long Press Example", "TODO: implement increment operation");   
}

ERROR: Cannot open source file " "

This was the top result when googling "cannot open source file" so I figured I would share what my issue was since I had already included the correct path.

I'm not sure about other IDEs or compilers, but least for Visual Studio, make sure there isn't a space in your list of include directories. I had put a space between the ; of the last entry and the beginning of my new entry which then caused Visual Studio to disregard my inclusion.

Recover SVN password from local cache

Just use this this decrypter to decrypt your locally cached username & password.

By default, TortoiseSVN stores your cached credentials inside files in the %APPDATA%\Subversion\auth\svn.simple directory. The passwords are encrypted using the Windows Data Protection API, with a key tied to your user account. This tool reads the files and uses the API to decrypt your passwords

What does principal end of an association means in 1:1 relationship in Entity framework

You can also use the [Required] data annotation attribute to solve this:

public class Foo
{
    public string FooId { get; set; }

    public Boo Boo { get; set; }
}

public class Boo
{
    public string BooId { get; set; }

    [Required]
    public Foo Foo {get; set; }
}

Foo is required for Boo.

How do I POST with multipart form data using fetch?

I was recently working with IPFS and worked this out. A curl example for IPFS to upload a file looks like this:

curl -i -H "Content-Type: multipart/form-data; boundary=CUSTOM" -d $'--CUSTOM\r\nContent-Type: multipart/octet-stream\r\nContent-Disposition: file; filename="test"\r\n\r\nHello World!\n--CUSTOM--' "http://localhost:5001/api/v0/add"

The basic idea is that each part (split by string in boundary with --) has it's own headers (Content-Type in the second part, for example.) The FormData object manages all this for you, so it's a better way to accomplish our goals.

This translates to fetch API like this:

const formData = new FormData()
formData.append('blob', new Blob(['Hello World!\n']), 'test')

fetch('http://localhost:5001/api/v0/add', {
  method: 'POST',
  body: formData
})
.then(r => r.json())
.then(data => {
  console.log(data)
})

How to display binary data as image - extjs 4

Need to convert it in base64.

JS have btoa() function for it.

For example:

var img = document.createElement('img');
img.src = 'data:image/jpeg;base64,' + btoa('your-binary-data');
document.body.appendChild(img);

But i think what your binary data in pastebin is invalid - the jpeg data must be ended on 'ffd9'.

Update:

Need to write simple hex to base64 converter:

function hexToBase64(str) {
    return btoa(String.fromCharCode.apply(null, str.replace(/\r|\n/g, "").replace(/([\da-fA-F]{2}) ?/g, "0x$1 ").replace(/ +$/, "").split(" ")));
}

And use it:

img.src = 'data:image/jpeg;base64,' + hexToBase64('your-binary-data');

See working example with your hex data on jsfiddle

How to run Pip commands from CMD

In my case I was trying to install Flask. I wanted to run pip install Flask command. But when I open command prompt it I goes to C:\Users[user]>. If you give here it will say pip is not recognized. I did below steps

On your desktop right click Computer and select Properties

Select Advanced Systems Settings

In popup which you see select Advanced tab and then click Environment Variables

In popup double click PATH and from popup copy variable value for variable name PATH and paste the variable value in notepad or so and look for an entry for Python.

In my case it was C:\Users\[user]\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python36-32

Now in my command prompt i moved to above location and gave pip install Flask

printing out a 2-D array in Matrix format

Here's my efficient approach for displaying 2-D integer array using a StringBuilder array.

public static void printMatrix(int[][] arr) {
    if (null == arr || arr.length == 0) {
        // empty or null matrix
        return;
    }

    int idx = -1;
    StringBuilder[] sbArr = new StringBuilder[arr.length];

    for (int[] row : arr) {
        sbArr[++idx] = new StringBuilder("(\t");

        for (int elem : row) {
            sbArr[idx].append(elem + "\t");
        }

        sbArr[idx].append(")");
    }

    for (int i = 0; i < sbArr.length; i++) {
        System.out.println(sbArr[i]);
    }
    System.out.println("\nDONE\n");
}

How to "scan" a website (or page) for info, and bring it into my program?

My answer won't probably be useful to the writer of this question (I am 8 months late so not the right timing I guess) but I think it will probably be useful for many other developers that might come across this answer.

Today, I just released (in the name of my company) an HTML to POJO complete framework that you can use to map HTML to any POJO class with simply some annotations. The library itself is quite handy and features many other things all the while being very pluggable. You can have a look to it right here : https://github.com/whimtrip/jwht-htmltopojo

How to use : Basics

Imagine we need to parse the following html page :

<html>
    <head>
        <title>A Simple HTML Document</title>
    </head>
    <body>
        <div class="restaurant">
            <h1>A la bonne Franquette</h1>
            <p>French cuisine restaurant for gourmet of fellow french people</p>
            <div class="location">
                <p>in <span>London</span></p>
            </div>
            <p>Restaurant n*18,190. Ranked 113 out of 1,550 restaurants</p>  
            <div class="meals">
                <div class="meal">
                    <p>Veal Cutlet</p>
                    <p rating-color="green">4.5/5 stars</p>
                    <p>Chef Mr. Frenchie</p>
                </div>

                <div class="meal">
                    <p>Ratatouille</p>
                    <p rating-color="orange">3.6/5 stars</p>
                    <p>Chef Mr. Frenchie and Mme. French-Cuisine</p>
                </div>

            </div> 
        </div>    
    </body>
</html>

Let's create the POJOs we want to map it to :

public class Restaurant {

    @Selector( value = "div.restaurant > h1")
    private String name;

    @Selector( value = "div.restaurant > p:nth-child(2)")
    private String description;

    @Selector( value = "div.restaurant > div:nth-child(3) > p > span")    
    private String location;    

    @Selector( 
        value = "div.restaurant > p:nth-child(4)"
        format = "^Restaurant n\*([0-9,]+). Ranked ([0-9,]+) out of ([0-9,]+) restaurants$",
        indexForRegexPattern = 1,
        useDeserializer = true,
        deserializer = ReplacerDeserializer.class,
        preConvert = true,
        postConvert = false
    )
    // so that the number becomes a valid number as they are shown in this format : 18,190
    @ReplaceWith(value = ",", with = "")
    private Long id;

    @Selector( 
        value = "div.restaurant > p:nth-child(4)"
        format = "^Restaurant n\*([0-9,]+). Ranked ([0-9,]+) out of ([0-9,]+) restaurants$",
        // This time, we want the second regex group and not the first one anymore
        indexForRegexPattern = 2,
        useDeserializer = true,
        deserializer = ReplacerDeserializer.class,
        preConvert = true,
        postConvert = false
    )
    // so that the number becomes a valid number as they are shown in this format : 18,190
    @ReplaceWith(value = ",", with = "")
    private Integer rank;

    @Selector(value = ".meal")    
    private List<Meal> meals;

    // getters and setters

}

And now the Meal class as well :

public class Meal {

    @Selector(value = "p:nth-child(1)")
    private String name;

    @Selector(
        value = "p:nth-child(2)",
        format = "^([0-9.]+)\/5 stars$",
        indexForRegexPattern = 1
    )
    private Float stars;

    @Selector(
        value = "p:nth-child(2)",
        // rating-color custom attribute can be used as well
        attr = "rating-color"
    )
    private String ratingColor;

    @Selector(
        value = "p:nth-child(3)"
    )
    private String chefs;

    // getters and setters.
}

We provided some more explanations on the above code on our github page.

For the moment, let's see how to scrap this.

private static final String MY_HTML_FILE = "my-html-file.html";

public static void main(String[] args) {


    HtmlToPojoEngine htmlToPojoEngine = HtmlToPojoEngine.create();

    HtmlAdapter<Restaurant> adapter = htmlToPojoEngine.adapter(Restaurant.class);

    // If they were several restaurants in the same page, 
    // you would need to create a parent POJO containing
    // a list of Restaurants as shown with the meals here
    Restaurant restaurant = adapter.fromHtml(getHtmlBody());

    // That's it, do some magic now!

}


private static String getHtmlBody() throws IOException {

Swift do-try-catch syntax

There are two important points to the Swift 2 error handling model: exhaustiveness and resiliency. Together, they boil down to your do/catch statement needing to catch every possible error, not just the ones you know you can throw.

Notice that you don't declare what types of errors a function can throw, only whether it throws at all. It's a zero-one-infinity sort of problem: as someone defining a function for others (including your future self) to use, you don't want to have to make every client of your function adapt to every change in the implementation of your function, including what errors it can throw. You want code that calls your function to be resilient to such change.

Because your function can't say what kind of errors it throws (or might throw in the future), the catch blocks that catch it errors don't know what types of errors it might throw. So, in addition to handling the error types you know about, you need to handle the ones you don't with a universal catch statement -- that way if your function changes the set of errors it throws in the future, callers will still catch its errors.

do {
    let sandwich = try makeMeSandwich(kitchen)
    print("i eat it \(sandwich)")
} catch SandwichError.NotMe {
    print("Not me error")
} catch SandwichError.DoItYourself {
    print("do it error")
} catch let error {
    print(error.localizedDescription)
}

But let's not stop there. Think about this resilience idea some more. The way you've designed your sandwich, you have to describe errors in every place where you use them. That means that whenever you change the set of error cases, you have to change every place that uses them... not very fun.

The idea behind defining your own error types is to let you centralize things like that. You could define a description method for your errors:

extension SandwichError: CustomStringConvertible {
    var description: String {
        switch self {
            case NotMe: return "Not me error"
            case DoItYourself: return "Try sudo"
        }
    }
}

And then your error handling code can ask your error type to describe itself -- now every place where you handle errors can use the same code, and handle possible future error cases, too.

do {
    let sandwich = try makeMeSandwich(kitchen)
    print("i eat it \(sandwich)")
} catch let error as SandwichError {
    print(error.description)
} catch {
    print("i dunno")
}

This also paves the way for error types (or extensions on them) to support other ways of reporting errors -- for example, you could have an extension on your error type that knows how to present a UIAlertController for reporting the error to an iOS user.

Android view layout_width - how to change programmatically?

Embedding a media player in a website using HTML

I found the that either IE or Chrome choked on most of these, or they required external libraries. I just wanted to play an MP3, and I found the page http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_sounds.asp very helpful.

<audio controls>
  <source src="horse.mp3" type="audio/mpeg">
  <embed height="50" width="100" src="horse.mp3">
</audio>

Worked for me in the browsers I tried, but I didn't have some of the old ones around at this time.

Using Google Text-To-Speech in Javascript

Another option now may be HTML5 text to speech, which is in Chrome 33+ and many others.

Here is a sample:

var msg = new SpeechSynthesisUtterance('Hello World');
window.speechSynthesis.speak(msg);

With this, perhaps you do not need to use a web service at all.

How to draw in JPanel? (Swing/graphics Java)

Variation of the code by Bijaya Bidari that is accepted by Java 8 without warnings in regard with overridable method calls in constructor:

public class Graph extends JFrame {
    JPanel jp;

    public Graph() {
        super("Simple Drawing");
        super.setSize(300, 300);
        super.setDefaultCloseOperation(EXIT_ON_CLOSE);

        jp = new GPanel();
        super.add(jp);
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Graph g1 = new Graph();
        g1.setVisible(true);
    }

    class GPanel extends JPanel {
        public GPanel() {
            super.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(300, 300));
        }

        @Override
        public void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
            super.paintComponent(g);
            //rectangle originated at 10,10 and end at 240,240
            g.drawRect(10, 10, 240, 240);
                    //filled Rectangle with rounded corners.    
            g.fillRoundRect(50, 50, 100, 100, 80, 80);
        }
    }
}

How to Truncate a string in PHP to the word closest to a certain number of characters?

The following solution was born when I've noticed a $break parameter of wordwrap function:

string wordwrap ( string $str [, int $width = 75 [, string $break = "\n" [, bool $cut = false ]]] )

Here is the solution:

/**
 * Truncates the given string at the specified length.
 *
 * @param string $str The input string.
 * @param int $width The number of chars at which the string will be truncated.
 * @return string
 */
function truncate($str, $width) {
    return strtok(wordwrap($str, $width, "...\n"), "\n");
}

Example #1.

print truncate("This is very long string with many chars.", 25);

The above example will output:

This is very long string...

Example #2.

print truncate("This is short string.", 25);

The above example will output:

This is short string.

Android RecyclerView addition & removal of items

The Problem

RecyclerView is, by default, unaware of your dataset changes. This means that whenever you make a deletion/addition on your data list, those changes won't be reflected to your RecyclerView directly. (i.e. you remove the item at index 5, but the 6th element remains in your recycler view).

A "ok" Solution

RecyclerView exposes some methods for you to communicate your dataset changes, reflecting those changes directly on your list items. The standard Android APIs allow you to bind the process of data removal (for the purpose of the question) with the process of View removal.

The methods we talked about are:

notifyItemChanged(index: Int)
notifyItemInserted(index: Int)
notifyItemRemoved(index: Int)
notifyItemRangeChanged(startPosition: Int, itemCount: Int)
notifyItemRangeInserted(startPosition: Int, itemCount: Int)
notifyItemRangeRemoved(startPosition: Int, itemCount: Int)

Better Solution

If you don't properly specify what happens on each addition, change or removal of items, RecyclerView children are animated unresponsively because of a lack of information about how to move the different views around the list.

Instead, the following code will precisely play the animation, just on the child that is being removed (And as a side note, it fixed any IndexOutOfBoundExceptions, marked by the stacktrace as "data inconsistency").

void remove(position: Int) {
    dataset.removeAt(position)
    notifyItemChanged(position)
    notifyItemRangeRemoved(position, 1)
}

Under the hood, if we look into RecyclerView we can find documentation explaining that the second parameter we pass to notifyItemRangeRemoved is the number of items that are removed from the dataset, not the total number of items (As wrongly reported in some others information sources).

    /**
     * Notify any registered observers that the <code>itemCount</code> items previously
     * located at <code>positionStart</code> have been removed from the data set. The items
     * previously located at and after <code>positionStart + itemCount</code> may now be found
     * at <code>oldPosition - itemCount</code>.
     *
     * <p>This is a structural change event. Representations of other existing items in the data
     * set are still considered up to date and will not be rebound, though their positions
     * may be altered.</p>
     *
     * @param positionStart Previous position of the first item that was removed
     * @param itemCount Number of items removed from the data set
     */
    public final void notifyItemRangeRemoved(int positionStart, int itemCount) {
        mObservable.notifyItemRangeRemoved(positionStart, itemCount);
    }

Even Better Solution (Opinionated)

Do not use any of those functions. That's my personal view. They are counterintuitive, error-prone and they feel really verbose and unnecessary. Let a library like FastAdapter, Epoxy or Groupie take care of this business, or use an observable recycler view with data binding.

How to use LINQ Distinct() with multiple fields

Answering the headline of the question (what attracted people here) and ignoring that the example used anonymous types....

This solution will also work for non-anonymous types. It should not be needed for anonymous types.

Helper class:

/// <summary>
/// Allow IEqualityComparer to be configured within a lambda expression.
/// From https://stackoverflow.com/questions/98033/wrap-a-delegate-in-an-iequalitycomparer

/// <typeparam name="T"></typeparam>
public class LambdaEqualityComparer<T> : IEqualityComparer<T>
{
    readonly Func<T, T, bool> _comparer;
    readonly Func<T, int> _hash;

    /// <summary>
    /// Simplest constructor, provide a conversion to string for type T to use as a comparison key (GetHashCode() and Equals().

    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="toString"></param>
    public LambdaEqualityComparer(Func<T, string> toString)
        : this((t1, t2) => toString(t1) == toString(t2), t => toString(t).GetHashCode())
    {
    }

    /// <summary>
    /// Constructor.  Assumes T.GetHashCode() is accurate.
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="comparer"></param>
    public LambdaEqualityComparer(Func<T, T, bool> comparer)
        : this(comparer, t => t.GetHashCode())
    {
    }

    /// <summary>
    /// Constructor, provide a equality comparer and a hash.
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="comparer"></param>
    /// <param name="hash"></param>
    public LambdaEqualityComparer(Func<T, T, bool> comparer, Func<T, int> hash)
    {
        _comparer = comparer;
        _hash = hash;
    }

    public bool Equals(T x, T y)
    {
        return _comparer(x, y);
    }

    public int GetHashCode(T obj)
    {
        return _hash(obj);
    }    
}

Simplest usage:

List<Product> products = duplicatedProducts.Distinct(
    new LambdaEqualityComparer<Product>(p =>
        String.Format("{0}{1}{2}{3}",
            p.ProductId,
            p.ProductName,
            p.CategoryId,
            p.CategoryName))
        ).ToList();

The simplest (but not that efficient) usage is to map to a string representation so that custom hashing is avoided. Equal strings already have equal hash codes.

Bulk Insert into Oracle database: Which is better: FOR Cursor loop or a simple Select?

I think that in this question is missing one important information.

How many records will you insert?

If from 1 to cca. 10.000 then you should use SQL statement (Like they said it is easy to understand and it is easy to write).
If from cca. 10.000 to cca. 100.000 then you should use cursor, but you should add logic to commit on every 10.000 records.
If from cca. 100.000 to millions then you should use bulk collect for better performance.

Capture Signature using HTML5 and iPad

Perhaps the best two browser techs for this are Canvas, with Flash as a back up.

We tried VML on IE as backup for Canvas, but it was much slower than Flash. SVG was slower then all the rest.

With jSignature ( http://willowsystems.github.com/jSignature/ ) we used Canvas as primary, with fallback to Flash-based Canvas emulator (FlashCanvas) for IE8 and less. Id' say worked very well for us.

What are callee and caller saved registers?

The caller-saved / callee-saved terminology is based on a pretty braindead inefficient model of programming where callers actually do save/restore all the call-clobbered registers (instead of keeping long-term-useful values elsewhere), and callees actually do save/restore all the call-preserved registers (instead of just not using some or any of them).

Or you have to understand that "caller-saved" means "saved somehow if you want the value later".

In reality, efficient code lets values get destroyed when they're no longer needed. Compilers typically make functions that save a few call-preserved registers at the start of a function (and restore them at the end). Inside the function, they use those regs for values that need to survive across function calls.

I prefer "call-preserved" vs. "call-clobbered", which are unambiguous and self-describing once you've heard of the basic concept, and don't require any serious mental gymnastics to think about from the caller's perspective or the callee's perspective. (Both terms are from the same perspective).

Plus, these terms differ by more than one letter.

The terms volatile / non-volatile are pretty good, by analogy with storage which loses its value on power-loss or not, (like DRAM vs. Flash). But the C volatile keyword has a totally different technical meaning, so that's a downside to "(non)-volatile" when describing C calling conventions.

Call-clobbered, aka caller-saved or volatile registers are good for scratch / temporary values that aren't needed after the next function call.

From the callee's perspective, your function can freely overwrite (aka clobber) these registers without saving/restoring.

From a caller's perspective, call foo destroys (aka clobbers) all the call-clobbered registers, or at least you have to assume it does.

You can write private helper functions that have a custom calling convention, e.g. you know they don't modify a certain register. But if all you know (or want to assume or depend on) is that the target function follows the normal calling convention, then you have to treat a function call as if it does destroy all the call-clobbered registers. That's literally what the name come from: a call clobbers those registers.

Some compilers that do inter-procedural optimization can also create internal-use-only definitions of functions that don't follow the ABI, using a custom calling convention.

Call-preserved, aka callee-saved or non-volatile registers keep their values across function calls. This is useful for loop variables in a loop that makes function calls, or basically anything in a non-leaf function in general.

From a callee's perspective, these registers can't be modified unless you save the original value somewhere so you can restore it before returning. Or for registers like the stack pointer (which is almost always call-preserved), you can subtract a known offset and add it back again before returning, instead of actually saving the old value anywhere. i.e. you can restore it by dead reckoning, unless you allocate a runtime-variable amount of stack space. Then typically you restore the stack pointer from another register.

A function that can benefit from using a lot of registers can save/restore some call-preserved registers just so it can use them as more temporaries, even if it doesn't make any function calls. Normally you'd only do this after running out of call-clobbered registers to use, because save/restore typically costs a push/pop at the start/end of the function. (Or if your function has multiple exit paths, a pop in each of them.)

The name "caller-saved" is misleading: you don't have to specially save/restore them. Normally you arrange your code to have values that need to survive a function call in call-preserved registers, or somewhere on the stack, or somewhere else that you can reload from. It's normal to let a call destroy temporary values.

An ABI or calling convention defines which are which

See for example What registers are preserved through a linux x86-64 function call for the x86-64 System V ABI.

Also, arg-passing registers are always call-clobbered in all function-calling conventions I'm aware of. See Are rdi and rsi caller saved or callee saved registers?

But system-call calling conventions typically make all the registers except the return value call-preserved. (Usually including even condition-codes / flags.) See What are the calling conventions for UNIX & Linux system calls on i386 and x86-64

How to access model hasMany Relation with where condition?

I have fixed the similar issue by passing associative array as the first argument inside Builder::with method.

Imagine you want to include child relations by some dynamic parameters but don't want to filter parent results.

Model.php

public function child ()
{
    return $this->hasMany(ChildModel::class);
}

Then, in other place, when your logic is placed you can do something like filtering relation by HasMany class. For example (very similar to my case):

$search = 'Some search string';
$result = Model::query()->with(
    [
        'child' => function (HasMany $query) use ($search) {
            $query->where('name', 'like', "%{$search}%");
        }
    ]
);

Then you will filter all the child results but parent models will not filter. Thank you for attention.
