Programs & Examples On #Tlb

The translation lookaside buffer (TLB) enables modern CPUs to quickly map virtual memory addresses to physical memory addresses and vice versa. Operations that flush the TLB cause a performance hit until it is repopulated.

Difference between logical addresses, and physical addresses?

Logical address:- Logical address generated by the CPU . when we are give the problem to the computer then our computer pass the problem to the processor through logical address , which we are not seen this address called logical address .

Physical address :- when our processor create process and solve our problem then we store data in secondary memory through address called physical address

In Angular, how do you determine the active route?

For Angular version 4+, you don't need to use any complex solution. You can simply use [routerLinkActive]="'is-active'".

For an example with bootstrap 4 nav link:

    <ul class="navbar-nav mr-auto">
      <li class="nav-item" routerLinkActive="active">
        <a class="nav-link" routerLink="/home">Home</a>
      </li>
      <li class="nav-item" routerLinkActive="active">
        <a class="nav-link" routerLink="/about-us">About Us</a>
      </li>
      <li class="nav-item" routerLinkActive="active">
        <a class="nav-link " routerLink="/contact-us">Contact</a>
      </li>
    </ul>

socket.error:[errno 99] cannot assign requested address and namespace in python

when you bind localhost or 127.0.0.1, it means you can only connect to your service from local.

you cannot bind 10.0.0.1 because it not belong to you, you can only bind ip owned by your computer

you can bind 0.0.0.0 because it means all ip on your computer, so any ip can connect to your service if they can connect to any of your ip

FFMPEG mp4 from http live streaming m3u8 file?

Your command is completely incorrect. The output format is not rawvideo and you don't need the bitstream filter h264_mp4toannexb which is used when you want to convert the h264 contained in an mp4 to the Annex B format used by MPEG-TS for example. What you want to use instead is the aac_adtstoasc for the AAC streams.

ffmpeg -i http://.../playlist.m3u8 -c copy -bsf:a aac_adtstoasc output.mp4

Changing default encoding of Python?

Here is a simpler method (hack) that gives you back the setdefaultencoding() function that was deleted from sys:

import sys
# sys.setdefaultencoding() does not exist, here!
reload(sys)  # Reload does the trick!
sys.setdefaultencoding('UTF8')

(Note for Python 3.4+: reload() is in the importlib library.)

This is not a safe thing to do, though: this is obviously a hack, since sys.setdefaultencoding() is purposely removed from sys when Python starts. Reenabling it and changing the default encoding can break code that relies on ASCII being the default (this code can be third-party, which would generally make fixing it impossible or dangerous).

Get my phone number in android

If the function you called returns null, it means your phone number is not registered in your contact list.

If instead of the phone number you just need an unique number, you may use the sim card's serial number:

    TelephonyManager telemamanger = (TelephonyManager)getSystemService(Context.TELEPHONY_SERVICE);
    String getSimSerialNumber = telemamanger.getSimSerialNumber();

Fast ceiling of an integer division in C / C++

For positive numbers

unsigned int x, y, q;

To round up ...

q = (x + y - 1) / y;

or (avoiding overflow in x+y)

q = 1 + ((x - 1) / y); // if x != 0

Meaning of - <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

An XML declaration is not required in all XML documents; however XHTML document authors are strongly encouraged to use XML declarations in all their documents. Such a declaration is required when the character encoding of the document is other than the default UTF-8 or UTF-16 and no encoding was determined by a higher-level protocol. Here is an example of an XHTML document. In this example, the XML declaration is included.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

SQLAlchemy insert or update example

I try lots of ways and finally try this:

def db_persist(func):
    def persist(*args, **kwargs):
        func(*args, **kwargs)
        try:
            session.commit()
            logger.info("success calling db func: " + func.__name__)
            return True
        except SQLAlchemyError as e:
            logger.error(e.args)
            session.rollback()
            return False

    return persist

and :

    return session.merge(table_object)

Redirect to a page/URL after alert button is pressed

Like that, both of the sentences will be executed even before the page has finished loading.

Here is your error, you are missing a ';' Change:

       echo 'alert("review your answer")'; 
       echo 'window.location= "index.php"';

To:

       echo 'alert("review your answer");';
       echo 'window.location= "index.php";';

Then a suggestion: You really should trigger that logic after some event. So, for instance:

           document.getElementById("myBtn").onclick=function(){
                 alert("review your answer");
                 window.location= "index.php";
           };

Another suggestion, use jQuery

How to make the Facebook Like Box responsive?

Colin's example for me clashed with the like button. So I adapted it to only target the Like Box.

.fb-like-box, .fb-like-box span, .fb-like-box span iframe[style] { width: 100% !important; }

Tested in most modern browsers.

Do I really need to encode '&' as '&amp;'?

The link has a fairly good example of when and why you may need to escape & to &amp;

https://jsfiddle.net/vh2h7usk/1/

Interestingly, I had to escape the character in order to represent it properly in my answer here. If I were to use the built-in code sample option (from the answer panel), I can just type in &amp; and it appears as it should. But if I were to manually use the <code></code> element, then I have to escape in order to represent it correctly :)

Checking if any elements in one list are in another

There is a built in function to compare lists:

Following is the syntax for cmp() method -

cmp(list1, list2)

#!/usr/bin/python

list1, list2 = [123, 'xyz'], [123, 'xyz']

print cmp(list1,list2)

When we run above program, it produces following result -

0

If the result is a tie, meaning that 0 is returned

Splitting String and put it on int array

For input 1,2,3,4,5 the input is of length 9. 9/2 = 4 in integer math, so you're only storing the first four variables, not all 5.

Even if you fixed that, it would break horribly if you passed in an input of 10,11,12,13

It would work (by chance) if you used 1,2,3,4,50 for an input, strangely enough :-)

You would be much better off doing something like this

String[] strArray = input.split(",");
int[] intArray = new int[strArray.length];
for(int i = 0; i < strArray.length; i++) {
    intArray[i] = Integer.parseInt(strArray[i]);
}

For future reference, when you get an error, I highly recommend posting it with the code. You might not have someone with a jdk readily available to compile the code to debug it! :)

Change working directory in my current shell context when running Node script

What you are trying to do is not possible. The reason for this is that in a POSIX system (Linux, OSX, etc), a child process cannot modify the environment of a parent process. This includes modifying the parent process's working directory and environment variables.

When you are on the commandline and you go to execute your Node script, your current process (bash, zsh, whatever) spawns a new process which has it's own environment, typically a copy of your current environment (it is possible to change this via system calls; but that's beyond the scope of this reply), allowing that process to do whatever it needs to do in complete isolation. When the subprocess exits, control is handed back to your shell's process, where the environment hasn't been affected.

There are a lot of reasons for this, but for one, imagine that you executed a script in the background (via ./foo.js &) and as it ran, it started changing your working directory or overriding your PATH. That would be a nightmare.

If you need to perform some actions that require changing your working directory of your shell, you'll need to write a function in your shell. For example, if you're running Bash, you could put this in your ~/.bash_profile:

do_cool_thing() {
  cd "/Users"
  echo "Hey, I'm in $PWD"
}

and then this cool thing is doable:

$ pwd
/Users/spike
$ do_cool_thing
Hey, I'm in /Users
$ pwd
/Users

If you need to do more complex things in addition, you could always call out to your nodejs script from that function.

This is the only way you can accomplish what you're trying to do.

Remove border radius from Select tag in bootstrap 3

You can use -webkit-border-radius: 0;. Like this:-

-webkit-border-radius: 0;
border: 0;
outline: 1px solid grey;
outline-offset: -1px;

This will give square corners as well as dropdown arrows. Using -webkit-appearance: none; is not recommended as it will turn off all the styling done by Chrome.

How can I simulate mobile devices and debug in Firefox Browser?

You can use the already mentioned built in Responsive Design Mode (via dev tools) for setting customised screen sizes together with the Random Agent Spoofer Plugin to modify your headers to simulate you are using Mobile, Tablet etc. Many websites specify their content according to these identified headers.

As dev tools you can use the built in Developer Tools (Ctrl + Shift + I or Cmd + Shift + I for Mac) which have become quite similar to Chrome dev tools by now.

What's the proper way to install pip, virtualenv, and distribute for Python?

Update: As of July 2013 this project is no longer maintained. The author suggests using pyenv. (pyenv does not have built-in support for virtualenv, but plays nice with it.)

Pythonbrew is a version manager for python and comes with support for virtualenv.

After installing pythonbrew and a python-version using venvs is really easy:

# Initializes the virtualenv 
pythonbrew venv init

# Create a virtual/sandboxed environment 
pythonbrew venv create mycoolbundle  

# Use it 
pythonbrew venv use mycoolbundle

`IF` statement with 3 possible answers each based on 3 different ranges

Your formula should be of the form =IF(X2 >= 85,0.559,IF(X2 >= 80,0.327,IF(X2 >=75,0.255,0))). This simulates the ELSE-IF operand Excel lacks. Your formulas were using two conditions in each, but the second parameter of the IF formula is the value to use if the condition evaluates to true. You can't chain conditions in that manner.

Calling the base class constructor from the derived class constructor

The base-class constructor is already automatically called by your derived-class constructor. In C++, if the base class has a default constructor (takes no arguments, can be auto-generated by the compiler!), and the derived-class constructor does not invoke another base-class constructor in its initialisation list, the default constructor will be called. I.e. your code is equivalent to:

class PetStore: public Farm
{
public :
    PetStore()
    : Farm()     // <---- Call base-class constructor in initialision list
    {
     idF=0;
    };
private:
    int idF;
    string nameF;
}

Proper MIME type for .woff2 fonts

In IIS you can declare the mime type for WOFF2 font files by adding the following to your project's web.config:

<system.webServer>
  <staticContent>
    <remove fileExtension=".woff2" />
    <mimeMap fileExtension=".woff2" mimeType="font/woff2" />
  </staticContent>
</system.webServer>

Update: The mime type may be changing according to the latest W3C Editor's Draft WOFF2 spec. See Appendix A: Internet Media Type Registration section 6.5. WOFF 2.0 which states the latest proposed format is font/woff2

Programmatically set left drawable in a TextView

You can use setCompoundDrawablesWithIntrinsicBounds(int left, int top, int right, int bottom)

set 0 where you don't want images

Example for Drawable on the left:

TextView textView = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.myTxtView);
textView.setCompoundDrawablesWithIntrinsicBounds(R.drawable.icon, 0, 0, 0);

Alternatively, you can use setCompoundDrawablesRelativeWithIntrinsicBounds to respect RTL/LTR layouts.

Tip: Whenever you know any XML attribute but don't have clue about how to use it at runtime. just go to the description of that property in developer doc. There you will find Related Methods if it's supported at runtime . i.e. For DrawableLeft

How to output JavaScript with PHP

The error you get if because you need to escape the quotes (like other answers said).

To avoid that, you can use an alternative syntax for you strings declarations, called "Heredoc"

With this syntax, you can declare a long string, even containing single-quotes and/or double-quotes, whithout having to escape thoses ; it will make your Javascript code easier to write, modify, and understand -- which is always a good thing.

As an example, your code could become :

$str = <<<MY_MARKER
<script type="text/javascript">
  document.write("Hello World!");
</script>
MY_MARKER;

echo $str;

Note that with Heredoc syntax (as with string delimited by double-quotes), variables are interpolated.

Fill remaining vertical space - only CSS

You can use CSS Flexbox instead another display value, The Flexbox Layout (Flexible Box) module aims at providing a more efficient way to lay out, align and distribute space among items in a container, even when their size is unknown and/or dynamic.

Example

/* CONTAINER */
#wrapper
{
   width:300px;
   height:300px;
    display: -webkit-box; /* OLD - iOS 6-, Safari 3.1-6 */
    display: -moz-box; /* OLD - Firefox 19- (buggy but mostly works) */
    display: -ms-flexbox; /* TWEENER - IE 10 */
    display: -webkit-flex; /* NEW - Chrome */
    display: flex; /* NEW, Spec - Opera 12.1, Firefox 20+ */
    -ms-flex-direction: column;
    -moz-flex-direction: column;
    -webkit-flex-direction: column;
    flex-direction: column;
}

/* SOME ITEM CHILD ELEMENTS */
#first
{
   width:300px;
    height: 200px;
   background-color:#F5DEB3;

}

#second
{
   width:300px;
   background-color: #9ACD32;
    -webkit-box-flex: 1; /* OLD - iOS 6-, Safari 3.1-6 */
    -moz-box-flex: 1; /* OLD - Firefox 19- */
    -webkit-flex: 1; /* Chrome */
    -ms-flex: 1; /* IE 10 */
    flex: 1; /* NEW, */
}

jsfiddle Example

If you want to have full support for old browsers like IE9 or below, you will have to use a polyfills like flexy, this polyfill enable support for Flexbox model but only for 2012 spec of flexbox model.

Recently I found another polyfill to help you with Internet Explorer 8 & 9 or any older browser that not have support for flexbox model, I still have not tried it but I leave the link here

How to set the text color of TextView in code?

If you still want to specify your colors in your XML file:

<color name="errorColor">#f00</color>

Then reference it in your code with one of these two methods:

textView.setTextColor(getResources().getColor(R.color.errorColor, getResources().newTheme()));

or

textView.setTextColor(getResources().getColor(R.color.errorColor, null));

The first is probably preferable if you're compiling against Android M, however the theme you pass in can be null, so maybe that's easier for you?

And if you're using the Compat library you can do something like this

textView.setTextColor(ContextCompat.getColor(context, R.color.errorColor));

how to read xml file from url using php

file_get_contents() usually has permission issues. To avoid them, use:

function get_xml_from_url($url){
    $ch = curl_init();

    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, 'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.13) Gecko/20080311 Firefox/2.0.0.13');

    $xmlstr = curl_exec($ch);
    curl_close($ch);

    return $xmlstr;
}

Example:

$xmlstr = get_xml_from_url('http://www.camara.gov.br/SitCamaraWS/Deputados.asmx/ObterDeputados');
$xmlobj = new SimpleXMLElement($xmlstr);
$xmlobj = (array)$xmlobj;//optional

Replace CRLF using powershell

Adding another version based on example above by @ricky89 and @mklement0 with few improvements:

Script to process:

  • *.txt files in the current folder
  • replace LF with CRLF (Unix to Windows line-endings)
  • save resulting files to CR-to-CRLF subfolder
  • tested on 100MB+ files, PS v5;

LF-to-CRLF.ps1:

# get current dir
$currentDirectory = Split-Path $MyInvocation.MyCommand.Path -Parent

# create subdir CR-to-CRLF for new files
$outDir = $(Join-Path $currentDirectory "CR-to-CRLF")
New-Item -ItemType Directory -Force -Path $outDir | Out-Null

# get all .txt files
Get-ChildItem $currentDirectory -Force | Where-Object {$_.extension -eq ".txt"} | ForEach-Object {
  $file = New-Object System.IO.StreamReader -Arg $_.FullName
  # Resulting file will be in CR-to-CRLF subdir
  $outstream = [System.IO.StreamWriter] $(Join-Path  $outDir $($_.BaseName + $_.Extension))
  $count = 0 
  # read line by line, replace CR with CRLF in each by saving it with $outstream.WriteLine
  while ($line = $file.ReadLine()) {
        $count += 1
        $outstream.WriteLine($line)
    }
  $file.close()
  $outstream.close()
  Write-Host ("$_`: " + $count + ' lines processed.')
}

How do SETLOCAL and ENABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION work?

I think you should understand what delayed expansion is. The existing answers don't explain it (sufficiently) IMHO.

Typing SET /? explains the thing reasonably well:

Delayed environment variable expansion is useful for getting around the limitations of the current expansion which happens when a line of text is read, not when it is executed. The following example demonstrates the problem with immediate variable expansion:

set VAR=before
if "%VAR%" == "before" (
    set VAR=after
    if "%VAR%" == "after" @echo If you see this, it worked
)

would never display the message, since the %VAR% in BOTH IF statements is substituted when the first IF statement is read, since it logically includes the body of the IF, which is a compound statement. So the IF inside the compound statement is really comparing "before" with "after" which will never be equal. Similarly, the following example will not work as expected:

set LIST=
for %i in (*) do set LIST=%LIST% %i
echo %LIST%

in that it will NOT build up a list of files in the current directory, but instead will just set the LIST variable to the last file found. Again, this is because the %LIST% is expanded just once when the FOR statement is read, and at that time the LIST variable is empty. So the actual FOR loop we are executing is:

for %i in (*) do set LIST= %i

which just keeps setting LIST to the last file found.

Delayed environment variable expansion allows you to use a different character (the exclamation mark) to expand environment variables at execution time. If delayed variable expansion is enabled, the above examples could be written as follows to work as intended:

set VAR=before
if "%VAR%" == "before" (
    set VAR=after
    if "!VAR!" == "after" @echo If you see this, it worked
)

set LIST=
for %i in (*) do set LIST=!LIST! %i
echo %LIST%

Another example is this batch file:

@echo off
setlocal enabledelayedexpansion
set b=z1
for %%a in (x1 y1) do (
 set b=%%a
 echo !b:1=2!
)

This prints x2 and y2: every 1 gets replaced by a 2.

Without setlocal enabledelayedexpansion, exclamation marks are just that, so it will echo !b:1=2! twice.

Because normal environment variables are expanded when a (block) statement is read, expanding %b:1=2% uses the value b has before the loop: z2 (but y2 when not set).

How to inherit constructors?

Yes, you will have to implement the constructors that make sense for each derivation and then use the base keyword to direct that constructor to the appropriate base class or the this keyword to direct a constructor to another constructor in the same class.

If the compiler made assumptions about inheriting constructors, we wouldn't be able to properly determine how our objects were instantiated. In the most part, you should consider why you have so many constructors and consider reducing them to only one or two in the base class. The derived classes can then mask out some of them using constant values like null and only expose the necessary ones through their constructors.

Update

In C#4 you could specify default parameter values and use named parameters to make a single constructor support multiple argument configurations rather than having one constructor per configuration.

Not unique table/alias

Connection pooling options with JDBC: DBCP vs C3P0

I invite you to try out BoneCP -- it's free, open source, and faster than the available alternatives (see benchmark section).

Disclaimer: I'm the author so you could say I'm biased :-)

UPDATE: As of March 2010, still around 35% faster than the new rewritten Apache DBCP ("tomcat jdbc") pool. See dynamic benchmark link in benchmark section.

Update #2: (Dec '13) After 4 years at the top, there's now a much faster competitor : https://github.com/brettwooldridge/HikariCP

Update #3: (Sep '14) Please consider BoneCP to be deprecated at this point, recommend switching to HikariCP.

Update #4: (April '15) -- I no longer own the domain jolbox.com

matplotlib savefig() plots different from show()

Old question, but apparently Google likes it so I thought I put an answer down here after some research about this problem.

If you create a figure from scratch you can give it a size option while creation:

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

fig = plt.figure(figsize=(3, 6))

plt.plot(range(10)) #plot example
plt.show() #for control

fig.savefig('temp.png', dpi=fig.dpi)

figsize(width,height) adjusts the absolute dimension of your plot and helps to make sure both plots look the same.

As stated in another answer the dpi option affects the relative size of the text and width of the stroke on lines, etc. Using the option dpi=fig.dpi makes sure the relative size of those are the same both for show() and savefig().

Alternatively the figure size can be changed after creation with:

fig.set_size_inches(3, 6, forward=True)

forward allows to change the size on the fly.

If you have trouble with too large borders in the created image you can adjust those either with:

plt.tight_layout()
#or:
plt.tight_layout(pad=2)

or:

fig.savefig('temp.png', dpi=fig.dpi, bbox_inches='tight')
#or:
fig.savefig('temp.png', dpi=fig.dpi, bbox_inches='tight', pad_inches=0.5)

The first option just minimizes the layout and borders and the second option allows to manually adjust the borders a bit. These tips helped at least me to solve my problem of different savefig() and show() images.

REST API Authentication

I think the best approach is to use OAuth2. Google it and you will find a lot of useful posts to help you set it up.

It will make easier to develop client applications for your API from a web app or a mobile one.

Hope it helps you.

Regular expression to match URLs in Java

The best way to do it now is:

android.util.Patterns.WEB_URL.matcher(linkUrl).matches();

How to make google spreadsheet refresh itself every 1 minute?

use now() in any cell. then use that cell as a "dummy" parameter in a function. when now() changes every minute the formula recalculates. example: someFunction(a1,b1,c1) * (cell with now() / cell with now())

Is it possible to decompile a compiled .pyc file into a .py file?

Yes.

I use uncompyle6 decompile (even support latest Python 3.8.0):

uncompyle6 utils.cpython-38.pyc > utils.py

and the origin python and decompiled python comparing look like this:

pyc uncompile utils

so you can see, ALMOST same, decompile effect is VERY GOOD.

How to upload a project to Github

Follow the instruction from RishiKesh Pathak above, you can even short the push command by inserting this command line one time only:

git config --global push.default simple

So next time instead of using git push origin master you just need:

git push

See details here.

How to check if a string in Python is in ASCII?

Ran into something like this recently - for future reference

import chardet

encoding = chardet.detect(string)
if encoding['encoding'] == 'ascii':
    print 'string is in ascii'

which you could use with:

string_ascii = string.decode(encoding['encoding']).encode('ascii')

How can I get the content of CKEditor using JQuery?

Sql Query to list all views in an SQL Server 2005 database

To finish the set off (with what has already been suggested):

SELECT * FROM sys.views

This gives extra properties on each view, not available from sys.objects (which contains properties common to all types of object) or INFORMATION_SCHEMA.VIEWS. Though INFORMATION_SCHEMA approach does provide the view definition out-of-the-box.

How to make CSS width to fill parent?

almost there, just change outerWidth: 100%; to width: auto; (outerWidth is not a CSS property)

How to install PyQt4 in anaconda?

It looks like the latest version of anaconda forces install of pyqt5.6 over any pyqt build, which will be fatal for your applications. In a terminal, Try:

conda install -c anaconda pyqt=4.11.4

It will prompt to downgrade conda client. After that, it should be good.

UPDATE: If you want to know what pyqt versions are available for install, try:

conda search pyqt

UPDATE: The most recent version of conda installs anaconda-navigator. This depends on qt5, and should first be removed:

conda uninstall anaconda-navigator

Then install "newest" qt4:

conda install qt=4

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

Not an official answer by any means (just a guess based on using the language), but Python allows you to use lists as stacks (e.g., section 5.1.1 of the tutorial). However, a list is still first of all a list, so the operations that are common to both use list terms (i.e., append) rather than stack terms (i.e., push). Since a pop operation isn't that common in lists (though 'removeLast' could have been used), they defined a pop() but not a push().

Can a local variable's memory be accessed outside its scope?

It can, because a is a variable allocated temporarily for the lifetime of its scope (foo function). After you return from foo the memory is free and can be overwritten.

What you're doing is described as undefined behavior. The result cannot be predicted.

Why is this error, 'Sequence contains no elements', happening?

In the following line.

temp.Response = db.Responses.Where(y => y.ResponseId.Equals(item.ResponseId)).First();

You are calling First but the collection returned from db.Responses.Where is empty.

Navigate to another page with a button in angular 2

Use it like this, should work:

 <a routerLink="/Service/Sign_in"><button class="btn btn-success pull-right" > Add Customer</button></a>

You can also use router.navigateByUrl('..') like this:

<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary-outline pull-right" (click)="btnClick();"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i> Add</button>    

import { Router } from '@angular/router';

btnClick= function () {
        this.router.navigateByUrl('/user');
};

Update 1

You have to inject Router in the constructor like this:

constructor(private router: Router) { }

only then you are able to use this.router. Remember also to import RouterModule in your module.

Update 2

Now, After Angular v4 you can directly add routerLink attribute on the button (As mentioned by @mark in comment section) like below (No "'/url?" since Angular 6, when a Route in RouterModule exists) -

 <button [routerLink]="'url'"> Button Label</button>

How do I create a basic UIButton programmatically?

       forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
[custombutton setTitle:@"Click" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
custombutton.frame = CGRectMake(80.0, 110.0, 160.0, 40.0);
custombutton.titleLabel.textColor = [UIColor colorWithRed: 2.0f/255.0f green: 155.0f/255.0f blue: 213.0f/255.0f  alpha:1];
 [custombutton setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"hh.png"] forState:UIControlStateNormal];

Detect the Enter key in a text input field

The best way I found is using keydown ( the keyup doesn't work well for me).

Note: I also disabled the form submit because usually when you like to do some actions when pressing Enter Key the only think you do not like is to submit the form :) 

$('input').keydown( function( event ) {
    if ( event.which === 13 ) {
        // Do something
        // Disable sending the related form
        event.preventDefault();
        return false;
    }
});

Get the latest record from mongodb collection

If you are using auto-generated Mongo Object Ids in your document, it contains timestamp in it as first 4 bytes using which latest doc inserted into the collection could be found out. I understand this is an old question, but if someone is still ending up here looking for one more alternative.

db.collectionName.aggregate(
[{$group: {_id: null, latestDocId: { $max: "$_id"}}}, {$project: {_id: 0, latestDocId: 1}}])

Above query would give the _id for the latest doc inserted into the collection

Open a workbook using FileDialog and manipulate it in Excel VBA

Unless I misunderstand your question, you can just open a file read only. Here is a simply example, without any checks.

To get the file path from the user use this function: 

Private Function get_user_specified_filepath() As String
    'or use the other code example here.
    Dim fd As Office.FileDialog
    Set fd = Application.FileDialog(msoFileDialogFilePicker)
    fd.AllowMultiSelect = False
    fd.Title = "Please select the file."
    get_user_specified_filepath = fd.SelectedItems(1)
End Function

Then just open the file read only and assign it to a variable:

dim wb as workbook
set wb = Workbooks.Open(get_user_specified_filepath(), ReadOnly:=True)

Installing Python library from WHL file

First open a console then cd to where you've downloaded your file like some-package.whl and use

pip install some-package.whl

Note: if pip.exe is not recognized, you may find it in the "Scripts" directory from where python has been installed. I have multiple Python installations, and needed to use the pip associated with Python 3 to install a version 3 wheel.

Find the index of a dict within a list, by matching the dict's value

Here's a function that finds the dictionary's index position if it exists.

dicts = [{'id':'1234','name':'Jason'},
         {'id':'2345','name':'Tom'},
         {'id':'3456','name':'Art'}]

def find_index(dicts, key, value):
    class Null: pass

        if d.get(key, Null) == value:
            return i
    else:
        raise ValueError('no dict with the key and value combination found')

print find_index(dicts, 'name', 'Tom')
# 1
find_index(dicts, 'name', 'Ensnare')
# ValueError: no dict with the key and value combination found

How to find which version of TensorFlow is installed in my system?

How do I loop through a date range?

I have a Range class in MiscUtil which you could find useful. Combined with the various extension methods, you could do:

foreach (DateTime date in StartDate.To(EndDate).ExcludeEnd()
                                   .Step(DayInterval.Days())
{
    // Do something with the date
}

(You may or may not want to exclude the end - I just thought I'd provide it as an example.)

This is basically a ready-rolled (and more general-purpose) form of mquander's solution.

How to present a modal atop the current view in Swift

The only way I able to get this to work was by doing this on the presenting view controller:

    func didTapButton() {
    self.definesPresentationContext = true
    self.modalTransitionStyle = .crossDissolve
    let yourVC = self.storyboard?.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "YourViewController") as! YourViewController
    let navController = UINavigationController(rootViewController: yourVC)
    navController.modalPresentationStyle = .overCurrentContext
    navController.modalTransitionStyle = .crossDissolve
    self.present(navController, animated: true, completion: nil)
}

Twig: in_array or similar possible within if statement?

Just to clear some things up here. The answer that was accepted does not do the same as PHP in_array.

To do the same as PHP in_array use following expression:

{% if myVar in myArray %}

If you want to negate this you should use this:

{% if myVar not in myArray %}

Is it possible to run an .exe or .bat file on 'onclick' in HTML

You can not run/execute an .exe file that is in the users local machine or through a site. The user must first download the exe file and then run the executable file.

java.math.BigInteger cannot be cast to java.lang.Integer

As we see from the javaDoc, BigInteger is not a subclass of Integer:

java.lang.Object                      java.lang.Object
   java.lang.Number                       java.lang.Number
      java.math.BigInteger                    java.lang.Integer

And that's the reason why casting from BigInteger to Integer is impossible.

Casting of java primitives will do some conversion (like casting from double to int) while casting of types will never transform classes.

How do I check if an index exists on a table field in MySQL?

If you need the functionality if a index for a column exists (here at first place in sequence) as a database function you can use/adopt this code. If you want to check if an index exists at all regardless of the position in a multi-column-index, then just delete the part "AND SEQ_IN_INDEX = 1".

Merge two dataframes by index

you can use concat([df1, df2, ...], axis=1) in order to concatenate two or more DFs aligned by indexes:

pd.concat([df1, df2, df3, ...], axis=1)

or merge for concatenating by custom fields / indexes:

# join by _common_ columns: `col1`, `col3`
pd.merge(df1, df2, on=['col1','col3'])

# join by: `df1.col1 == df2.index`
pd.merge(df1, df2, left_on='col1' right_index=True)

or join for joining by index:

 df1.join(df2)

jquery 3.0 url.indexOf error

Apply a function to every row of a matrix or a data frame

First step would be making the function object, then applying it. If you want a matrix object that has the same number of rows, you can predefine it and use the object[] form as illustrated (otherwise the returned value will be simplified to a vector):

bvnormdens <- function(x=c(0,0),mu=c(0,0), sigma=c(1,1), rho=0){
     exp(-1/(2*(1-rho^2))*(x[1]^2/sigma[1]^2+
                           x[2]^2/sigma[2]^2-
                           2*rho*x[1]*x[2]/(sigma[1]*sigma[2]))) * 
     1/(2*pi*sigma[1]*sigma[2]*sqrt(1-rho^2))
     }
 out=rbind(c(1,2),c(3,4),c(5,6));

 bvout<-matrix(NA, ncol=1, nrow=3)
 bvout[] <-apply(out, 1, bvnormdens)
 bvout
             [,1]
[1,] 1.306423e-02
[2,] 5.931153e-07
[3,] 9.033134e-15

If you wanted to use other than your default parameters then the call should include named arguments after the function:

bvout[] <-apply(out, 1, FUN=bvnormdens, mu=c(-1,1), rho=0.6)

apply() can also be used on higher dimensional arrays and the MARGIN argument can be a vector as well as a single integer.

The problem is that I forgot to add .val() to the end of $('#myInputField'); this action makes me waste time trying to figure out what was wrong, causing Illegal Invocation Error, since $('#myInputField') was in a different file than that system pointed out incorrect code. Hope this answer help fellows in the same mistake to avoid to loose time.

C++ Passing Pointer to Function (Howto) + C++ Pointer Manipulation

If you want to pass a pointer-to-int into your function,

Declaration of function (if you need it):

void Fun(int *ptr);

Definition of function:

void Fun(int *ptr) {
    int *other_pointer = ptr;  // other_pointer points to the same thing as ptr
    *other_ptr = 3;            // manipulate the thing they both point to
}

Use of function:

int main() {
    int x = 2;
    printf("%d\n", x);
    Fun(&x);
    printf("%d\n", x);
}

Note as a general rule, that variables called Ptr or Pointer should never have type int, which is what you have then in your code. A pointer-to-int has type int *.

If I have a second pointer (int *oof), then:

bar = oof means: bar points to the oof pointer

It means "make bar point to the same thing oof points to".

bar = *oof means: bar points to the value that oof points to, but not to the oof pointer itself

That doesn't mean anything, it's invalid. bar is a pointer *oof is an int. You can't assign one to the other.

*bar = *oof means: change the value that bar points to to the value that oof points to

Yes.

&bar = &oof means: change the memory address that bar points to be the same as the memory address that oof points to

Nope, that's invalid again. &bar is a pointer to the bar variable, but it is what's called an "rvalue", or "temporary", and it cannot be assigned to. It's like the result of an arithmetic calculation. You can't write x + 1 = 5.

It might help you to think of pointers as addresses. bar = oof means "make bar, which is an address, equal to oof, which is also an address". bar = &foo means "make bar, which is an address, equal to the address of foo". If bar = *oof meant anything, it would mean "make bar, which is an address, equal to *oof, which is an int". You can't.

Then, & is the address-of operator. It means "the address of the operand", so &foo is the address of foo (i.e, a pointer to foo). * is the dereference operator. It means "the thing at the address given by the operand". So having done bar = &foo, *bar is foo.

Best way to handle list.index(might-not-exist) in python?

I have the same issue with the ".index()" method on lists. I have no issue with the fact that it throws an exception but I strongly disagree with the fact that it's a non-descriptive ValueError. I could understand if it would've been an IndexError, though.

I can see why returning "-1" would be an issue too because it's a valid index in Python. But realistically, I never expect a ".index()" method to return a negative number.

Here goes a one liner (ok, it's a rather long line ...), goes through the list exactly once and returns "None" if the item isn't found. It would be trivial to rewrite it to return -1, should you so desire.

indexOf = lambda list, thing: \
            reduce(lambda acc, (idx, elem): \
                   idx if (acc is None) and elem == thing else acc, list, None)

How to use:

>>> indexOf([1,2,3], 4)
>>>
>>> indexOf([1,2,3], 1)
0
>>>

How to bind inverse boolean properties in WPF?

I had an inversion problem, but a neat solution.

Motivation was that the XAML designer would show an empty control e.g. when there was no datacontext / no MyValues (itemssource).

Initial code: hide control when MyValues is empty. Improved code: show control when MyValues is NOT null or empty.

Ofcourse the problem is how to express '1 or more items', which is the opposite of 0 items.

<ListBox ItemsSource={Binding MyValues}">
  <ListBox.Style x:Uid="F404D7B2-B7D3-11E7-A5A7-97680265A416">
    <Style TargetType="{x:Type ListBox}">
      <Style.Triggers>
        <DataTrigger Binding="{Binding MyValues.Count}">
          <Setter Property="Visibility" Value="Collapsed"/>
        </DataTrigger>
      </Style.Triggers>
    </Style>
  </ListBox.Style>
</ListBox>

I solved it by adding:

<DataTrigger Binding="{Binding MyValues.Count, FallbackValue=0, TargetNullValue=0}">

Ergo setting the default for the binding. Ofcourse this doesn't work for all kinds of inverse problems, but helped me out with clean code.

displaying a string on the textview when clicking a button in android

Check this:

    @Override
    public void onClick(View paramView) {
        text.setText("hello");
    }
});

Reading an Excel file in python using pandas

Close: first you call ExcelFile, but then you call the .parse method and pass it the sheet name.

>>> xl = pd.ExcelFile("dummydata.xlsx")
>>> xl.sheet_names
[u'Sheet1', u'Sheet2', u'Sheet3']
>>> df = xl.parse("Sheet1")
>>> df.head()
                  Tid  dummy1    dummy2    dummy3    dummy4    dummy5  \
0 2006-09-01 00:00:00       0  5.894611  0.605211  3.842871  8.265307   
1 2006-09-01 01:00:00       0  5.712107  0.605211  3.416617  8.301360   
2 2006-09-01 02:00:00       0  5.105300  0.605211  3.090865  8.335395   
3 2006-09-01 03:00:00       0  4.098209  0.605211  3.198452  8.170187   
4 2006-09-01 04:00:00       0  3.338196  0.605211  2.970015  7.765058   

     dummy6  dummy7    dummy8    dummy9  
0  0.623354       0  2.579108  2.681728  
1  0.554211       0  7.210000  3.028614  
2  0.567841       0  6.940000  3.644147  
3  0.581470       0  6.630000  4.016155  
4  0.595100       0  6.350000  3.974442

What you're doing is calling the method which lives on the class itself, rather than the instance, which is okay (although not very idiomatic), but if you're doing that you would also need to pass the sheet name:

>>> parsed = pd.io.parsers.ExcelFile.parse(xl, "Sheet1")
>>> parsed.columns
Index([u'Tid', u'dummy1', u'dummy2', u'dummy3', u'dummy4', u'dummy5', u'dummy6', u'dummy7', u'dummy8', u'dummy9'], dtype=object)

How to join components of a path when you are constructing a URL in Python

Like you say, os.path.join joins paths based on the current os. posixpath is the underlying module that is used on posix systems under the namespace os.path:

>>> os.path.join is posixpath.join
True
>>> posixpath.join('/media/', 'js/foo.js')
'/media/js/foo.js'

So you can just import and use posixpath.join instead for urls, which is available and will work on any platform.

Edit: @Pete's suggestion is a good one, you can alias the import for increased readability

from posixpath import join as urljoin

Edit: I think this is made clearer, or at least helped me understand, if you look into the source of os.py (the code here is from Python 2.7.11, plus I've trimmed some bits). There's conditional imports in os.py that picks which path module to use in the namespace os.path. All the underlying modules (posixpath, ntpath, os2emxpath, riscospath) that may be imported in os.py, aliased as path, are there and exist to be used on all systems. os.py is just picking one of the modules to use in the namespace os.path at run time based on the current OS.

# os.py
import sys, errno

_names = sys.builtin_module_names

if 'posix' in _names:
    # ...
    from posix import *
    # ...
    import posixpath as path
    # ...

elif 'nt' in _names:
    # ...
    from nt import *
    # ...
    import ntpath as path
    # ...

elif 'os2' in _names:
    # ...
    from os2 import *
    # ...
    if sys.version.find('EMX GCC') == -1:
        import ntpath as path
    else:
        import os2emxpath as path
        from _emx_link import link
    # ...

elif 'ce' in _names:
    # ...
    from ce import *
    # ...
    # We can use the standard Windows path.
    import ntpath as path

elif 'riscos' in _names:
    # ...
    from riscos import *
    # ...
    import riscospath as path
    # ...

else:
    raise ImportError, 'no os specific module found'

Convert String[] to comma separated string in java

How can I control the speed that bootstrap carousel slides in items?

In your CSS:

.carousel-item {
    transition-duration: 1.5s, 1.5s;
}

Take care, the time is included in data-interval defined for the carousel.

Hope it helps... :)

correct way to use super (argument passing)

Sometimes two classes may have some parameter names in common. In that case, you can't pop the key-value pairs off of **kwargs or remove them from *args. Instead, you can define a Base class which unlike object, absorbs/ignores arguments:

class Base(object):
    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs): pass

class A(Base):
    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        print "A"
        super(A, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)

class B(Base):
    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        print "B"
        super(B, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)

class C(A):
    def __init__(self, arg, *args, **kwargs):
        print "C","arg=",arg
        super(C, self).__init__(arg, *args, **kwargs)

class D(B):
    def __init__(self, arg, *args, **kwargs):
        print "D", "arg=",arg
        super(D, self).__init__(arg, *args, **kwargs)

class E(C,D):
    def __init__(self, arg, *args, **kwargs):
        print "E", "arg=",arg
        super(E, self).__init__(arg, *args, **kwargs)

print "MRO:", [x.__name__ for x in E.__mro__]
E(10)

yields

MRO: ['E', 'C', 'A', 'D', 'B', 'Base', 'object']
E arg= 10
C arg= 10
A
D arg= 10
B

Note that for this to work, Base must be the penultimate class in the MRO.

Is JVM ARGS '-Xms1024m -Xmx2048m' still useful in Java 8?

What I know is one reason when “GC overhead limit exceeded” error is thrown when 2% of the memory is freed after several GC cycles

By this error your JVM is signalling that your application is spending too much time in garbage collection. so the little amount GC was able to clean will be quickly filled again thus forcing GC to restart the cleaning process again.

You should try changing the value of -Xmx and -Xms.

Counting Number of Letters in a string variable

If you don't need the leading and trailing spaces :

str.Trim().Length

Pad left or right with string.format (not padleft or padright) with arbitrary string

You could encapsulate the string in a struct that implements IFormattable

public struct PaddedString : IFormattable
{
   private string value;
   public PaddedString(string value) { this.value = value; }

   public string ToString(string format, IFormatProvider formatProvider)
   { 
      //... use the format to pad value
   }

   public static explicit operator PaddedString(string value)
   {
     return new PaddedString(value);
   }
}

Then use this like that :

 string.Format("->{0:x20}<-", (PaddedString)"Hello");

result:

"->xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxHello<-"

How do I collapse a table row in Bootstrap?


problem is that the collapse item (div) is nested in the table elements. The div is hidden, the tr and td of the table are still visible and some css-styles are applied to them (border and padding).
Why are you using tables? Is there a reason for? When you dont´t have to use them, dont´use them :-)

(WAMP/XAMP) send Mail using SMTP localhost

Method 1 (Preferred) - Using hMailServer


After installation, you need the following configuration to properly send mail from wampserver:

1) When you first open hMailServer Administrator, you need to add a new domain.
2) Click on the "Add Domain ..." button at the Welcome page. 
3) Under the domain text field, enter your computer's IP, in this case it should be 127.0.0.1.
4) Click on the Save button.
5) Go to Settings>Protocols>SMTP and select "Delivery of Email" tab
6) Enter "localhost" in the localhost name field.
7) Click on the Save button.

If you need to send mail using a FROM addressee of another computer, you need to allow deliveries from External to External accounts. To do that, follow these steps:

1) Go to Settings>Advanced>IP Ranges and double click on "My Computer" which should have IP address of 127.0.0.1
2) Check the Allow Deliveries from External to External accounts checkbox.
3) Save settings using Save button.

(However, Windows Live/Hotmail has denied all emails coming from dynamic IPs, which most residential computers are using. The workaround is to use Gmail account )

Note to use Gmail users :

1) Go to Settings>Protocols>SMTP and select "Delivery of Email" tab
2) Enter "smtp.gmail.com" in the Remote Host name field.
3) Enter "465" as the port number
4) Check "Server requires authentication"
5) Enter gmail address in the Username
6) Enter gmail password in the password 
7) Check "Use SSL"

(Note, From field doesnt function with gmail)
*p.s. For some people it might also be needed to untick everything under require SMTP authentication in :

  • for local : Settings>Advanced>IP Ranges>"My Computer"
  • for external : Settings>Advanced>IP Ranges>"Internet"

Method 2 - Using SendMail

You can use SendMail installation.

Method 3 - Using different methods

Use any of these methods.

How to check 'undefined' value in jQuery

If you have names of the element and not id we can achieve the undefined check on all text elements (for example) as below and fill them with a default value say 0.0:

var aFieldsCannotBeNull=['ast_chkacc_bwr','ast_savacc_bwr'];
 jQuery.each(aFieldsCannotBeNull,function(nShowIndex,sShowKey) {
   var $_oField = jQuery("input[name='"+sShowKey+"']");
   if($_oField.val().trim().length === 0){
       $_oField.val('0.0')
    }
  })

How can I change cols of textarea in twitter-bootstrap?

Another option is to split off the textarea in the Site.css as follows: 

/* Set width on the form input elements since they're 100% wide by default */

input,
select {

  max-width: 280px;
}

textarea {

  /*max-width: 280px;*/
  max-width: 500px;
  width: 280px;
  height: 200px;
}

also (in my MVC 5) add ref to textarea:

@Html.TextAreaFor(model => ................... @class = "form-control", @id="textarea"............

It worked for me

how to rotate a bitmap 90 degrees

If you rotate bitmap, 90 180 270 360 is ok but for other degrees canvas will draw bitmap with different size.

So,the best way is

canvas.rotate(degree,rotateCenterPoint.x,rotateCenterPoint.y);  
canvas.drawBitmap(...);
canvas.rotate(-degree,rotateCenterPoint.x,rotateCenterPoint.y);//rotate back

#1064 -You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version

I see two problems:

DOUBLE(10) precision definitions need a total number of digits, as well as a total number of digits after the decimal:

DOUBLE(10,8) would make be ten total digits, with 8 allowed after the decimal.

Also, you'll need to specify your id column as a key :

CREATE TABLE transactions( 
id int NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, 
location varchar(50) NOT NULL, 
description varchar(50) NOT NULL, 
category varchar(50) NOT NULL, 
amount double(10,9) NOT NULL, 
type varchar(6) NOT NULL,  
notes varchar(512), 
receipt int(10), 
PRIMARY KEY(id) );

Delete last N characters from field in a SQL Server database

I got the answer to my own question, ant this is:

select reverse(stuff(reverse('a,b,c,d,'), 1, N, ''))

Where N is the number of characters to remove. This avoids to write the complex column/string twice

Difference between Method and Function?

Programmers from structural programming language background know it as a function while in OOPS it's called a method.

But there's not any difference between the two.

In the old days, methods did not return values and functions did. Now they both are used interchangeably.

How do I apply a CSS class to Html.ActionLink in ASP.NET MVC?

Difference between <input type='submit' /> and <button type='submit'>text</button>

With <button>, you can use img tags, etc. where text is

<button type='submit'> text -- can be img etc.  </button>

with <input> type, you are limited to text

How to clear Facebook Sharer cache?

I just posted a simple solution that takes 5 seconds here on a related post here - Facebook debugger: Clear whole site cache

short answer... change your permalinks on a worpdress site in the permalinks settings to a custom one. I just added an underscore.
/_%postname%/
then facebook scrapes them all as new urls, new posts.

fetch gives an empty response body

You will need to convert your response to json before you can access response.body

I had the exact same issue and i just needed to set the SDK for the library project of the MapsApiV2 to Android 2.3.3 (API lvl 10)

Best practice for storing and protecting private API keys in applications

Few ideas, in my opinion only first one gives some guarantee:

  1. Keep your secrets on some server on internet, and when needed just grab them and use. If user is about to use dropbox then nothing stops you from making request to your site and get your secret key.

  2. Put your secrets in jni code, add some variable code to make your libraries bigger and more difficult to decompile. You might also split key string in few parts and keep them in various places.

  3. use obfuscator, also put in code hashed secret and later on unhash it when needed to use.

  4. Put your secret key as last pixels of one of your image in assets. Then when needed read it in your code. Obfuscating your code should help hide code that will read it.

Pass props to parent component in React.js

Edit: see the end examples for ES6 updated examples.

This answer simply handle the case of direct parent-child relationship. When parent and child have potentially a lot of intermediaries, check this answer.

Other solutions are missing the point

While they still work fine, other answers are missing something very important.

Is there not a simple way to pass a child's props to its parent using events, in React.js?

The parent already has that child prop!: if the child has a prop, then it is because its parent provided that prop to the child! Why do you want the child to pass back the prop to the parent, while the parent obviously already has that prop?

Better implementation

Child: it really does not have to be more complicated than that.

var Child = React.createClass({
  render: function () {
    return <button onClick={this.props.onClick}>{this.props.text}</button>;
  },
});

Parent with single child: using the value it passes to the child

var Parent = React.createClass({
  getInitialState: function() {
     return {childText: "Click me! (parent prop)"};
  },
  render: function () {
    return (
      <Child onClick={this.handleChildClick} text={this.state.childText}/>
    );
  },
  handleChildClick: function(event) {
     // You can access the prop you pass to the children 
     // because you already have it! 
     // Here you have it in state but it could also be
     //  in props, coming from another parent.
     alert("The Child button text is: " + this.state.childText);
     // You can also access the target of the click here 
     // if you want to do some magic stuff
     alert("The Child HTML is: " + event.target.outerHTML);
  }
});

JsFiddle

Parent with list of children: you still have everything you need on the parent and don't need to make the child more complicated.

var Parent = React.createClass({
  getInitialState: function() {
     return {childrenData: [
         {childText: "Click me 1!", childNumber: 1},
         {childText: "Click me 2!", childNumber: 2}
     ]};
  },
  render: function () {
    var children = this.state.childrenData.map(function(childData,childIndex) {
        return <Child onClick={this.handleChildClick.bind(null,childData)} text={childData.childText}/>;
    }.bind(this));
    return <div>{children}</div>;
  },

  handleChildClick: function(childData,event) {
     alert("The Child button data is: " + childData.childText + " - " + childData.childNumber);
     alert("The Child HTML is: " + event.target.outerHTML);
  }
});

JsFiddle

It is also possible to use this.handleChildClick.bind(null,childIndex) and then use this.state.childrenData[childIndex]

Note we are binding with a null context because otherwise React issues a warning related to its autobinding system. Using null means you don't want to change the function context. See also.

About encapsulation and coupling in other answers

This is for me a bad idea in term of coupling and encapsulation:

var Parent = React.createClass({
  handleClick: function(childComponent) {
     // using childComponent.props
     // using childComponent.refs.button
     // or anything else using childComponent
  },
  render: function() {
    <Child onClick={this.handleClick} />
  }
});

Using props: As I explained above, you already have the props in the parent so it's useless to pass the whole child component to access props.

Using refs: You already have the click target in the event, and in most case this is enough. Additionnally, you could have used a ref directly on the child:

<Child ref="theChild" .../>

And access the DOM node in the parent with

React.findDOMNode(this.refs.theChild)

For more advanced cases where you want to access multiple refs of the child in the parent, the child could pass all the dom nodes directly in the callback.

The component has an interface (props) and the parent should not assume anything about the inner working of the child, including its inner DOM structure or which DOM nodes it declares refs for. A parent using a ref of a child means that you tightly couple the 2 components.

To illustrate the issue, I'll take this quote about the Shadow DOM, that is used inside browsers to render things like sliders, scrollbars, video players...:

They created a boundary between what you, the Web developer can reach and what’s considered implementation details, thus inaccessible to you. The browser however, can traipse across this boundary at will. With this boundary in place, they were able to build all HTML elements using the same good-old Web technologies, out of the divs and spans just like you would.

The problem is that if you let the child implementation details leak into the parent, you make it very hard to refactor the child without affecting the parent. This means as a library author (or as a browser editor with Shadow DOM) this is very dangerous because you let the client access too much, making it very hard to upgrade code without breaking retrocompatibility.

If Chrome had implemented its scrollbar letting the client access the inner dom nodes of that scrollbar, this means that the client may have the possibility to simply break that scrollbar, and that apps would break more easily when Chrome perform its auto-update after refactoring the scrollbar... Instead, they only give access to some safe things like customizing some parts of the scrollbar with CSS.

About using anything else

Passing the whole component in the callback is dangerous and may lead novice developers to do very weird things like calling childComponent.setState(...) or childComponent.forceUpdate(), or assigning it new variables, inside the parent, making the whole app much harder to reason about.

Edit: ES6 examples

As many people now use ES6, here are the same examples for ES6 syntax

The child can be very simple:

const Child = ({
  onClick, 
  text
}) => (
  <button onClick={onClick}>
    {text}
  </button>
)

The parent can be either a class (and it can eventually manage the state itself, but I'm passing it as props here:

class Parent1 extends React.Component {
  handleChildClick(childData,event) {
     alert("The Child button data is: " + childData.childText + " - " + childData.childNumber);
     alert("The Child HTML is: " + event.target.outerHTML);
  }
  render() {
    return (
      <div>
        {this.props.childrenData.map(child => (
          <Child
            key={child.childNumber}
            text={child.childText} 
            onClick={e => this.handleChildClick(child,e)}
          />
        ))}
      </div>
    );
  }
}

But it can also be simplified if it does not need to manage state:

const Parent2 = ({childrenData}) => (
  <div>
     {childrenData.map(child => (
       <Child
         key={child.childNumber}
         text={child.childText} 
         onClick={e => {
            alert("The Child button data is: " + child.childText + " - " + child.childNumber);
                    alert("The Child HTML is: " + e.target.outerHTML);
         }}
       />
     ))}
  </div>
)

JsFiddle

PERF WARNING (apply to ES5/ES6): if you are using PureComponent or shouldComponentUpdate, the above implementations will not be optimized by default because using onClick={e => doSomething()}, or binding directly during the render phase, because it will create a new function everytime the parent renders. If this is a perf bottleneck in your app, you can pass the data to the children, and reinject it inside "stable" callback (set on the parent class, and binded to this in class constructor) so that PureComponent optimization can kick in, or you can implement your own shouldComponentUpdate and ignore the callback in the props comparison check.

You can also use Recompose library, which provide higher order components to achieve fine-tuned optimisations:

// A component that is expensive to render
const ExpensiveComponent = ({ propA, propB }) => {...}

// Optimized version of same component, using shallow comparison of props
// Same effect as React's PureRenderMixin
const OptimizedComponent = pure(ExpensiveComponent)

// Even more optimized: only updates if specific prop keys have changed
const HyperOptimizedComponent = onlyUpdateForKeys(['propA', 'propB'])(ExpensiveComponent)

In this case you could optimize the Child component by using:

const OptimizedChild = onlyUpdateForKeys(['text'])(Child)

What is com.sun.proxy.$Proxy

  1. Proxies are classes that are created and loaded at runtime. There is no source code for these classes. I know that you are wondering how you can make them do something if there is no code for them. The answer is that when you create them, you specify an object that implements InvocationHandler, which defines a method that is invoked when a proxy method is invoked.

  2. You create them by using the call 

    Proxy.newProxyInstance(classLoader, interfaces, invocationHandler)

    The arguments are:

    1. classLoader. Once the class is generated, it is loaded with this class loader.
    2. interfaces. An array of class objects that must all be interfaces. The resulting proxy implements all of these interfaces.
    3. invocationHandler. This is how your proxy knows what to do when a method is invoked. It is an object that implements InvocationHandler. When a method from any of the supported interfaces, or hashCode, equals, or toString, is invoked, the method invoke is invoked on the handler, passing the Method object for the method to be invoked and the arguments passed.

    For more on this, see the documentation for the Proxy class.

  3. Every implementation of a JVM after version 1.3 must support these. They are loaded into the internal data structures of the JVM in an implementation-specific way, but it is guaranteed to work.

Postgresql - change the size of a varchar column to lower length

if you put the alter into a transaction the table should not be locked:

How to specify jackson to only use fields - preferably globally

In Jackson 2.0 and later you can simply use:

import com.fasterxml.jackson.annotation.JsonAutoDetect;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.annotation.PropertyAccessor;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ObjectMapper;   

...

ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper();    
mapper.setVisibility(PropertyAccessor.ALL, Visibility.NONE);
mapper.setVisibility(PropertyAccessor.FIELD, Visibility.ANY);

to turn off autodetection.

Android EditText Max Length

If you used maxLength = 6 , some times what you are entering those characters are added in top of the keyboard called suggestions. So when you deleting entered letters that time it will delete suggestions first and then actual text inside EditText. For that you need to remove the suggestions.just add

android:inputType="textNoSuggestions"`

or

android:inputType="textFilter"

It will remove those suggestions.

Cannot send a content-body with this verb-type

Don't get the request stream, quite simply. GET requests don't usually have bodies (even though it's not technically prohibited by HTTP) and WebRequest doesn't support it - but that's what calling GetRequestStream is for, providing body data for the request.

Given that you're trying to read from the stream, it looks to me like you actually want to get the response and read the response stream from that:

WebRequest request = WebRequest.Create(get.AbsoluteUri + args);
request.Method = "GET";
using (WebResponse response = request.GetResponse())
{
    using (Stream stream = response.GetResponseStream())
    {
        XmlTextReader reader = new XmlTextReader(stream);
        ...
    }
}

Use JavaScript to place cursor at end of text in text input element

I faced this same issue (after setting focus through RJS/prototype) in IE. Firefox was already leaving the cursor at the end when there is already a value for the field. IE was forcing the cursor to the beginning of the text.

The solution I arrived at is as follows:

<input id="search" type="text" value="mycurrtext" size="30" 
       onfocus="this.value = this.value;" name="search"/>

This works in both IE7 and FF3

JavaScript: Collision detection

An answer without jQuery, with HTML elements as parameters:

This is a better approach that checks the real position of the elements as they are being shown on the viewport, even if they're absolute, relative or have been manipulated via transformations:

function isCollide(a, b) {
    var aRect = a.getBoundingClientRect();
    var bRect = b.getBoundingClientRect();

    return !(
        ((aRect.top + aRect.height) < (bRect.top)) ||
        (aRect.top > (bRect.top + bRect.height)) ||
        ((aRect.left + aRect.width) < bRect.left) ||
        (aRect.left > (bRect.left + bRect.width))
    );
}

Correct way to initialize HashMap and can HashMap hold different value types?

The way you're writing it is equivalent to 

HashMap<Object, Object> map = new HashMap<Object, Object>();

What goes inside the brackets is you communicating to the compiler what you're going to put in the HashMap so that it can do error checking for you. If Object, Object is what you actually want (probably not) you should explicitly declare it. In general you should be as explicit as you can with the declaration to facilitate error checking by the compiler. What you've described should probably be declared like this:

HashMap<String, Object> map = new HashMap<String, Object>();

That way you at least declare that your keys are going to be strings, but your values can be anything. Just remember to use a cast when you get a value back out.

How to return more than one value from a function in Python?

You separate the values you want to return by commas:

def get_name():
   # you code
   return first_name, last_name

The commas indicate it's a tuple, so you could wrap your values by parentheses:

return (first_name, last_name)

Then when you call the function you a) save all values to one variable as a tuple, or b) separate your variable names by commas

name = get_name() # this is a tuple
first_name, last_name = get_name()
(first_name, last_name) = get_name() # You can put parentheses, but I find it ugly

Symfony - generate url with parameter in controller

It's pretty simple :

public function myAction()
{
    $url = $this->generateUrl('blog_show', array('slug' => 'my-blog-post'));
}

Inside an action, $this->generateUrl is an alias that will use the router to get the wanted route, also you could do this that is the same :

$this->get('router')->generate('blog_show', array('slug' => 'my-blog-post'));

Circular dependency in Spring

As the other answers have said, Spring just takes care of it, creating the beans and injecting them as required.

One of the consequences is that bean injection / property setting might occur in a different order to what your XML wiring files would seem to imply. So you need to be careful that your property setters don't do initialization that relies on other setters already having been called. The way to deal with this is to declare beans as implementing the InitializingBean interface. This requires you to implement the afterPropertiesSet() method, and this is where you do the critical initialization. (I also include code to check that important properties have actually been set.)

How to reduce the image file size using PIL

See the thumbnail function of PIL's Image Module. You can use it to save smaller versions of files as various filetypes and if you're wanting to preserve as much quality as you can, consider using the ANTIALIAS filter when you do.

Other than that, I'm not sure if there's a way to specify a maximum desired size. You could, of course, write a function that might try saving multiple versions of the file at varying qualities until a certain size is met, discarding the rest and giving you the image you wanted.

How to make clang compile to llvm IR

If you have multiple files and you don't want to have to type each file, I would recommend that you follow these simple steps (I am using clang-3.8 but you can use any other version):

  1. generate all .ll files

    clang-3.8 -S -emit-llvm *.c

  2. link them into a single one

    llvm-link-3.8 -S -v -o single.ll *.ll

  3. (Optional) Optimise your code (maybe some alias analysis)

    opt-3.8 -S -O3 -aa -basicaaa -tbaa -licm single.ll -o optimised.ll

  4. Generate assembly (generates a optimised.s file)

    llc-3.8 optimised.ll

  5. Create executable (named a.out)

    clang-3.8 optimised.s

Understanding typedefs for function pointers in C

cdecl is a great tool for deciphering weird syntax like function pointer declarations. You can use it to generate them as well.

As far as tips for making complicated declarations easier to parse for future maintenance (by yourself or others), I recommend making typedefs of small chunks and using those small pieces as building blocks for larger and more complicated expressions. For example:

typedef int (*FUNC_TYPE_1)(void);
typedef double (*FUNC_TYPE_2)(void);
typedef FUNC_TYPE_1 (*FUNC_TYPE_3)(FUNC_TYPE_2);

rather than:

typedef int (*(*FUNC_TYPE_3)(double (*)(void)))(void);

cdecl can help you out with this stuff:

cdecl> explain int (*FUNC_TYPE_1)(void)
declare FUNC_TYPE_1 as pointer to function (void) returning int
cdecl> explain double (*FUNC_TYPE_2)(void)
declare FUNC_TYPE_2 as pointer to function (void) returning double
cdecl> declare FUNC_TYPE_3 as pointer to function (pointer to function (void) returning double) returning pointer to function (void) returning int
int (*(*FUNC_TYPE_3)(double (*)(void )))(void )

And is (in fact) exactly how I generated that crazy mess above.

As you can see additional styling rules have been added to account for some oddities in Stackoverflows preview box.
You should be able to safely ignore those rules in your project.

As of v4.0.0 this seems to be the official way to do it.

EDIT: I modified the Post to include a dropdown placed on the right side of the navbar as suggested by @Bruno. It needs its left and right attributes to be inverted. I added an extra snippet of css to the beginning of the example code.
Please note, that the example shows the mobile version when you click the Run code snippet button. To view the desktop version you must click the Expand snippet button.

.ml-auto .dropdown-menu {
    left: auto !important;
    right: 0px;
}

Including this in your stylesheet should do the trick.

Difference between "this" and"super" keywords in Java

Lets consider this situation

class Animal {
  void eat() {
    System.out.println("animal : eat");
  }
}

class Dog extends Animal {
  void eat() {
    System.out.println("dog : eat");
  }
  void anotherEat() {
    super.eat();
  }
}

public class Test {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    Animal a = new Animal();
    a.eat();
    Dog d = new Dog();
    d.eat();
    d.anotherEat();
  }
}

The output is going to be

animal : eat
dog : eat
animal : eat

The third line is printing "animal:eat" because we are calling super.eat(). If we called this.eat(), it would have printed as "dog:eat".

You can use Apache commons-io for this task:

Refer to this method:

public static byte[] readFileToByteArray(File file) throws IOException

Update:

Java 7 way:

byte[] bytes = Files.readAllBytes(Paths.get(filename));

and if it is a text file and you want to convert it to String (change encoding as needed):

StandardCharsets.UTF_8.decode(ByteBuffer.wrap(bytes)).toString()

How to create JNDI context in Spring Boot with Embedded Tomcat Container

Please note instead of 

public TomcatEmbeddedServletContainerFactory tomcatFactory()

I had to use the following method signature

public EmbeddedServletContainerFactory embeddedServletContainerFactory()

Get Number of Rows returned by ResultSet in Java

You could count with sql and retrieve the answer from the resultset like so:

Statment stmt = conn.createStatement(ResultSet.TYPE_SCROLL_INSENSITIVE, 
                                     ResultSet.CONCUR_READ_ONLY);
ResultSet ct = stmt.executeQuery("SELECT COUNT(*) FROM [table_name]");
if(ct.next()){
   td.setTotalNumRows(ct.getInt(1));
}

Here I'm counting everything but you can easily modify the SQL to count based on a criteria.

How do I copy the contents of one stream to another?

From .NET 4.5 on, there is the Stream.CopyToAsync method

input.CopyToAsync(output);

This will return a Task that can be continued on when completed, like so:

await input.CopyToAsync(output)

// Code from here on will be run in a continuation.

Note that depending on where the call to CopyToAsync is made, the code that follows may or may not continue on the same thread that called it.

The SynchronizationContext that was captured when calling await will determine what thread the continuation will be executed on.

Additionally, this call (and this is an implementation detail subject to change) still sequences reads and writes (it just doesn't waste a threads blocking on I/O completion).

From .NET 4.0 on, there's is the Stream.CopyTo method

input.CopyTo(output);

For .NET 3.5 and before

There isn't anything baked into the framework to assist with this; you have to copy the content manually, like so:

public static void CopyStream(Stream input, Stream output)
{
    byte[] buffer = new byte[32768];
    int read;
    while ((read = input.Read(buffer, 0, buffer.Length)) > 0)
    {
        output.Write (buffer, 0, read);
    }
}

Note 1: This method will allow you to report on progress (x bytes read so far ...)
Note 2: Why use a fixed buffer size and not input.Length? Because that Length may not be available! From the docs:

If a class derived from Stream does not support seeking, calls to Length, SetLength, Position, and Seek throw a NotSupportedException.

Magento - Retrieve products with a specific attribute value

create attribute name is "price_screen_tab_name". and access using this simple formula.

<?php $_product = $this->getProduct(); ?>
<?php echo $_product->getData('price_screen_tab_name');?>

Java: parse int value from a char

 
String element = "el5";
int x = element.charAt(2) - 48;

Subtracting ascii value of '0' = 48 from char

How can I set the maximum length of 6 and minimum length of 6 in a textbox?

You can use the HTML5 pattern attribute or use JavaScript.

The pattern could look for example like this:

<input id="groupidtext" type="text" pattern="(.){6,6}" style="width: 100px;" maxlength="6" />

But the pattern attribute will only work with HTML5 browsers. For old browsers you'll need JavaScript.

As suggested in the comments to add, this will only work as soon as a form is about to be submitted. If this input is not in a form and you need validation as a user types, use JavaScript.

Android Overriding onBackPressed()

Override the onBackPressed() method as per the example by codeMagic, and remove the call to super.onBackPressed(); if you do not want the default action (finishing the current activity) to be executed.

How to Convert Excel Numeric Cell Value into Words

There is no built-in formula in excel, you have to add a vb script and permanently save it with your MS. Excel's installation as Add-In.

After this, From File Menu select Save Book ,from next menu select "Excel 97-2003 Add-In (*.xla)

It will save as Excel Add-In. that will be available till the Ms.Office Installation to that machine.

Now Open any Excel File in any Cell type =WordNum(<your numeric value or cell reference>)

you will see a Words equivalent of the numeric value.

Newtang's observation about the security rules aside, how are you going to know that anyone who views your page will have the correct images at c:\localfile.jpg? You can't. Even if you think you can, you can't. It presupposes a windows environment, for one thing.

How to check for changes on remote (origin) Git repository

My regular question is rather "anything new or changed in repo" so whatchanged comes handy. Found it here.

git whatchanged origin/master -n 1

Apply style ONLY on IE

Welcome BrowserDetect - an awesome function.

<script>
    var BrowserDetect;
    BrowserDetect = {...};//  get BrowserDetect Object from the link referenced in this answer
    BrowserDetect.init();
    // On page load, detect browser (with jQuery or vanilla)
    if (BrowserDetect.browser === 'Explorer') {
      // Add 'ie' class on every element on the page.
      $('*').addClass('ie');
    }
</script>

<!-- ENSURE IE STYLES ARE AVAILABLE -->
<style>
    div.ie {
       // do something special for div on IE browser.
    }
    h1.ie {
     // do something special for h1 on IE browser.
    }
</style>

The Object BrowserDetect also provides version info so we can add specific classes - for ex. $('*').addClass('ie9'); if (BrowserDetect.version == 9).

Good Luck....

ORA-01653: unable to extend table by in tablespace ORA-06512

You could also turn on autoextend for the whole database using this command:

ALTER DATABASE DATAFILE 'C:\ORACLEXE\APP\ORACLE\ORADATA\XE\SYSTEM.DBF'
AUTOEXTEND ON NEXT 1M MAXSIZE 1024M;

Just change the filepath to point to your system.dbf file.

How to recover the deleted files using "rm -R" command in linux server?

Short answer: You can't. rm removes files blindly, with no concept of 'trash'.

Some Unix and Linux systems try to limit its destructive ability by aliasing it to rm -i by default, but not all do.

Long answer: Depending on your filesystem, disk activity, and how long ago the deletion occured, you may be able to recover some or all of what you deleted. If you're using an EXT3 or EXT4 formatted drive, you can check out extundelete.

In the future, use rm with caution. Either create a del alias that provides interactivity, or use a file manager.

Division in Python 2.7. and 3.3

In python 2.7, the / operator is integer division if inputs are integers.

If you want float division (which is something I always prefer), just use this special import:

from __future__ import division

See it here:

>>> 7 / 2
3
>>> from __future__ import division
>>> 7 / 2
3.5
>>>

Integer division is achieved by using //, and modulo by using %

>>> 7 % 2
1
>>> 7 // 2
3
>>>

EDIT

As commented by user2357112, this import has to be done before any other normal import.

String.Format not work in TypeScript

You can use TypeScript's native string interpolation in case if your only goal to eliminate ugly string concatenations and boring string conversions:

var yourMessage = `Your text ${yourVariable} your text continued ${yourExpression} and so on.`

NOTE:

At the right side of the assignment statement the delimiters are neither single or double quotes, instead a special char called backtick or grave accent.

The TypeScript compiler will translate your right side special literal to a string concatenation expression. With other words this syntax is not relies the ECMAScript 6 feature instead a native TypeScript feature. Your generated javascript code remains compatible.

How can I show a hidden div when a select option is selected?

 
<select id="test" name="form_select" onchange="showDiv()">
   <option value="0">No</option>
   <option value ="1">Yes</option>
</select>
<div id="hidden_div" style="display: none;">Hello hidden content</div>
<script>
    function showDiv(){
        getSelectValue = document.getElementById("test").value;
        if(getSelectValue == "1"){
            document.getElementById("hidden_div").style.display="block";
        }else{
            document.getElementById("hidden_div").style.display="none";
        }
    }

A generic list of anonymous class

Not exactly, but you can say List<object> and things will work. However, list[0].Id won't work.

This will work at runtime in C# 4.0 by having a List<dynamic>, that is you won't get IntelliSense.

In PowerShell, how can I test if a variable holds a numeric value?

You can check whether the variable is a number like this: $val -is [int]

This will work for numeric values, but not if the number is wrapped in quotes:

1 -is [int]
True
"1" -is [int]
False

How to compare two columns in Excel and if match, then copy the cell next to it

try this formula in column E:

=IF( AND( ISNUMBER(D2), D2=G2), H2, "")

your error is the number test, ISNUMBER( ISMATCH(D2,G:G,0) )

you do check if ismatch is-a-number, (i.e. isNumber("true") or isNumber("false"), which is not!.

I hope you understand my explanation.

addClass - can add multiple classes on same div?

Java String.split() Regex

You could also do something like:

String str = "a + b - c * d / e < f > g >= h <= i == j";
String[] arr = str.split("(?<=\\G(\\w+(?!\\w+)|==|<=|>=|\\+|/|\\*|-|(<|>)(?!=)))\\s*");

It handles white spaces and words of variable length and produces the array:

[a, +, b, -, c, *, d, /, e, <, f, >, g, >=, h, <=, i, ==, j]

How to call javascript function from code-behind

One way of doing it is to use the ClientScriptManager:

Page.ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript(

    true);

Are the days of passing const std::string & as a parameter over?

I've copy/pasted the answer from this question here, and changed the names and spelling to fit this question.

Here is code to measure what is being asked:

#include <iostream>

struct string
{
    string() {}
    string(const string&) {std::cout << "string(const string&)\n";}
    string& operator=(const string&) {std::cout << "string& operator=(const string&)\n";return *this;}
#if (__has_feature(cxx_rvalue_references))
    string(string&&) {std::cout << "string(string&&)\n";}
    string& operator=(string&&) {std::cout << "string& operator=(string&&)\n";return *this;}
#endif

};

#if PROCESS == 1

string
do_something(string inval)
{
    // do stuff
    return inval;
}

#elif PROCESS == 2

string
do_something(const string& inval)
{
    string return_val = inval;
    // do stuff
    return return_val; 
}

#if (__has_feature(cxx_rvalue_references))

string
do_something(string&& inval)
{
    // do stuff
    return std::move(inval);
}

#endif

#endif

string source() {return string();}

int main()
{
    std::cout << "do_something with lvalue:\n\n";
    string x;
    string t = do_something(x);
#if (__has_feature(cxx_rvalue_references))
    std::cout << "\ndo_something with xvalue:\n\n";
    string u = do_something(std::move(x));
#endif
    std::cout << "\ndo_something with prvalue:\n\n";
    string v = do_something(source());
}

For me this outputs:

$ clang++ -std=c++11 -stdlib=libc++ -DPROCESS=1 test.cpp
$ a.out
do_something with lvalue:

string(const string&)
string(string&&)

do_something with xvalue:

string(string&&)
string(string&&)

do_something with prvalue:

string(string&&)
$ clang++ -std=c++11 -stdlib=libc++ -DPROCESS=2 test.cpp
$ a.out
do_something with lvalue:

string(const string&)

do_something with xvalue:

string(string&&)

do_something with prvalue:

string(string&&)

The table below summarizes my results (using clang -std=c++11). The first number is the number of copy constructions and the second number is the number of move constructions:

+----+--------+--------+---------+
|    | lvalue | xvalue | prvalue |
+----+--------+--------+---------+
| p1 |  1/1   |  0/2   |   0/1   |
+----+--------+--------+---------+
| p2 |  1/0   |  0/1   |   0/1   |
+----+--------+--------+---------+

The pass-by-value solution requires only one overload but costs an extra move construction when passing lvalues and xvalues. This may or may not be acceptable for any given situation. Both solutions have advantages and disadvantages.
