Programs & Examples On #Tree balancing

The best way to calculate the height in a binary search tree? (balancing an AVL-tree)

Give BinaryTree<T, Comparator>::Node a subtreeHeight data member, initialized to 0 in its constructor, and update automatically every time with:

template <typename T, typename Comparator>
inline void BinaryTree<T, Comparator>::Node::setLeft (std::shared_ptr<Node>& node) {
    const std::size_t formerLeftSubtreeSize = left ? left->subtreeSize : 0;
    left = node;
    if (node) {
        node->parent = this->shared_from_this();
        subtreeSize++;
        node->depthFromRoot = depthFromRoot + 1;
        const std::size_t h = node->subtreeHeight;
        if (right)
            subtreeHeight = std::max (right->subtreeHeight, h) + 1;
        else
            subtreeHeight = h + 1;
    }
    else {
        subtreeSize -= formerLeftSubtreeSize;
        subtreeHeight = right ? right->subtreeHeight + 1 : 0;
    }
}

template <typename T, typename Comparator>
inline void BinaryTree<T, Comparator>::Node::setRight (std::shared_ptr<Node>& node) {
    const std::size_t formerRightSubtreeSize = right ? right->subtreeSize : 0;
    right = node;
    if (node) {
        node->parent = this->shared_from_this();
        subtreeSize++;
        node->depthFromRoot = depthFromRoot + 1;
        const std::size_t h = node->subtreeHeight;
        if (left)
            subtreeHeight = std::max (left->subtreeHeight, h) + 1;
        else
            subtreeHeight = h + 1;
    }
    else {
        subtreeSize -= formerRightSubtreeSize;
        subtreeHeight = left ? left->subtreeHeight + 1 : 0;
    }
}

Note that data members subtreeSize and depthFromRoot are also updated. These functions are called when inserting a node (all tested), e.g.

template <typename T, typename Comparator>
inline std::shared_ptr<typename BinaryTree<T, Comparator>::Node>
BinaryTree<T, Comparator>::Node::insert (BinaryTree& tree, const T& t, std::shared_ptr<Node>& node) {
    if (!node) {
        std::shared_ptr<Node> newNode = std::make_shared<Node>(tree, t);
        node = newNode;
        return newNode;
    }
    if (getComparator()(t, node->value)) {
        std::shared_ptr<Node> newLeft = insert(tree, t, node->left);
        node->setLeft(newLeft);
    }
    else {
        std::shared_ptr<Node> newRight = insert(tree, t, node->right);
        node->setRight(newRight);
    }
    return node;
}

If removing a node, use a different version of removeLeft and removeRight by replacing subtreeSize++; with subtreeSize--;. Algorithms for rotateLeft and rotateRight can be adapted without much problem either. The following was tested and passed:

template <typename T, typename Comparator>
void BinaryTree<T, Comparator>::rotateLeft (std::shared_ptr<Node>& node) {  // The root of the rotation is 'node', and its right child is the pivot of the rotation.  The pivot will rotate counter-clockwise and become the new parent of 'node'.
    std::shared_ptr<Node> pivot = node->right;
    pivot->subtreeSize = node->subtreeSize;
    pivot->depthFromRoot--;
    node->subtreeSize--;  // Since 'pivot' will no longer be in the subtree rooted at 'node'.
    const std::size_t a = pivot->left ? pivot->left->subtreeHeight + 1 : 0;  // Need to establish node->heightOfSubtree before pivot->heightOfSubtree is established, since pivot->heightOfSubtree depends on it.
    node->subtreeHeight = node->left ? std::max(a, node->left->subtreeHeight + 1) : std::max<std::size_t>(a,1);
    if (pivot->right) {
        node->subtreeSize -= pivot->right->subtreeSize;  // The subtree rooted at 'node' loses the subtree rooted at pivot->right.
        pivot->subtreeHeight = std::max (pivot->right->subtreeHeight, node->subtreeHeight) + 1;
    }
    else
        pivot->subtreeHeight = node->subtreeHeight + 1;
    node->depthFromRoot++;
    decreaseDepthFromRoot(pivot->right);  // Recursive call for the entire subtree rooted at pivot->right.
    increaseDepthFromRoot(node->left);  // Recursive call for the entire subtree rooted at node->left.
    pivot->parent = node->parent;
    if (pivot->parent) {  // pivot's new parent will be its former grandparent, which is not nullptr, so the grandparent must be updated with a new left or right child (depending on whether 'node' was its left or right child).
        if (pivot->parent->left == node)
            pivot->parent->left = pivot;
        else
            pivot->parent->right = pivot;
    }
    node->setRightSimple(pivot->left);  // Since pivot->left->value is less than pivot->value but greater than node->value.  We use the NoSizeAdjustment version because the 'subtreeSize' values of 'node' and 'pivot' are correct already.
    pivot->setLeftSimple(node);
    if (node == root) {
        root = pivot;
        root->parent = nullptr; 
    }
}

where

inline void decreaseDepthFromRoot (std::shared_ptr<Node>& node) {adjustDepthFromRoot(node, -1);}
inline void increaseDepthFromRoot (std::shared_ptr<Node>& node) {adjustDepthFromRoot(node, 1);}

template <typename T, typename Comparator>
inline void BinaryTree<T, Comparator>::adjustDepthFromRoot (std::shared_ptr<Node>& node, int adjustment) {
    if (!node)
        return;
    node->depthFromRoot += adjustment;
    adjustDepthFromRoot (node->left, adjustment);
    adjustDepthFromRoot (node->right, adjustment);
}

How can I use jQuery in Greasemonkey?

@require is NOT only processed when the script is first installed! On my observations it is proccessed on the first execution time! So you can install a script via Greasemonkey's command for creating a brand-new script. The only thing you have to take care about is, that there is no page reload triggered, befor you add the @requirepart. (and save the new script...)

How to set radio button checked as default in radiogroup?

There was same problem in my Colleague's code. This sounds as your Radio Group is not properly set with your Radio Buttons. This is the reason you can multi-select the radio buttons. I tried many things, finally i did a trick which is wrong actually, but works fine.

for ( int i = 0 ; i < myCount ; i++ )
{
    if ( i != k )
    {
        System.out.println ( "i = " + i );
        radio1[i].setChecked(false);
    }
}

Here I set one for loop, which checks for the available radio buttons and de-selects every one except the new clicked one. try it.

Reading and writing to serial port in C on Linux

I've solved my problems, so I post here the correct code in case someone needs similar stuff.

Open Port

int USB = open( "/dev/ttyUSB0", O_RDWR| O_NOCTTY );

Set parameters

struct termios tty;
struct termios tty_old;
memset (&tty, 0, sizeof tty);

/* Error Handling */
if ( tcgetattr ( USB, &tty ) != 0 ) {
   std::cout << "Error " << errno << " from tcgetattr: " << strerror(errno) << std::endl;
}

/* Save old tty parameters */
tty_old = tty;

/* Set Baud Rate */
cfsetospeed (&tty, (speed_t)B9600);
cfsetispeed (&tty, (speed_t)B9600);

/* Setting other Port Stuff */
tty.c_cflag     &=  ~PARENB;            // Make 8n1
tty.c_cflag     &=  ~CSTOPB;
tty.c_cflag     &=  ~CSIZE;
tty.c_cflag     |=  CS8;

tty.c_cflag     &=  ~CRTSCTS;           // no flow control
tty.c_cc[VMIN]   =  1;                  // read doesn't block
tty.c_cc[VTIME]  =  5;                  // 0.5 seconds read timeout
tty.c_cflag     |=  CREAD | CLOCAL;     // turn on READ & ignore ctrl lines

/* Make raw */
cfmakeraw(&tty);

/* Flush Port, then applies attributes */
tcflush( USB, TCIFLUSH );
if ( tcsetattr ( USB, TCSANOW, &tty ) != 0) {
   std::cout << "Error " << errno << " from tcsetattr" << std::endl;
}

Write

unsigned char cmd[] = "INIT \r";
int n_written = 0,
    spot = 0;

do {
    n_written = write( USB, &cmd[spot], 1 );
    spot += n_written;
} while (cmd[spot-1] != '\r' && n_written > 0);

It was definitely not necessary to write byte per byte, also int n_written = write( USB, cmd, sizeof(cmd) -1) worked fine.

At last, read:

int n = 0,
    spot = 0;
char buf = '\0';

/* Whole response*/
char response[1024];
memset(response, '\0', sizeof response);

do {
    n = read( USB, &buf, 1 );
    sprintf( &response[spot], "%c", buf );
    spot += n;
} while( buf != '\r' && n > 0);

if (n < 0) {
    std::cout << "Error reading: " << strerror(errno) << std::endl;
}
else if (n == 0) {
    std::cout << "Read nothing!" << std::endl;
}
else {
    std::cout << "Response: " << response << std::endl;
}

This one worked for me. Thank you all!

Manually Set Value for FormBuilder Control

Updated: 19/03/2017

this.form.controls['dept'].setValue(selected.id);

OLD:

For now we are forced to do a type cast:

(<Control>this.form.controls['dept']).updateValue(selected.id)

Not very elegant I agree. Hope this gets improved in future versions.

SQL Order By Count

SELECT * FROM table 
group by `Group`
ORDER BY COUNT(Group)

Trying to get property of non-object MySQLi result

$sql = "SELECT * FROM table";
$result = $conn->query($sql);

if (!$result) {
    trigger_error('Invalid query: ' . $conn->error);
}

check the error with mysqli_error() function

probably your query has some faults.

How to check not in array element

I think everything that you need is array_key_exists:

if (!array_key_exists('id', $access_data['Privilege'])) {
                $this->Session->setFlash(__('Access Denied! You are not eligible to access this.'), 'flash_custom_success');
                return $this->redirect(array('controller' => 'Dashboard', 'action' => 'index'));
            }

Why is list initialization (using curly braces) better than the alternatives?

There are already great answers about the advantages of using list initialization, however my personal rule of thumb is NOT to use curly braces whenever possible, but instead make it dependent on the conceptual meaning:

  • If the object I'm creating conceptually holds the values I'm passing in the constructor (e.g. containers, POD structs, atomics, smart pointers etc.), then I'm using the braces.
  • If the constructor resembles a normal function call (it performs some more or less complex operations that are parametrized by the arguments) then I'm using the normal function call syntax.
  • For default initialization I always use curly braces.
    For one, that way I'm always sure that the object gets initialized irrespective of whether it e.g. is a "real" class with a default constructor that would get called anyway or a builtin / POD type. Second it is - in most cases - consistent with the first rule, as a default initialized object often represents an "empty" object.

In my experience, this ruleset can be applied much more consistently than using curly braces by default, but having to explicitly remember all the exceptions when they can't be used or have a different meaning than the "normal" function-call syntax with parenthesis (calls a different overload).

It e.g. fits nicely with standard library-types like std::vector:

vector<int> a{10,20};   //Curly braces -> fills the vector with the arguments

vector<int> b(10,20);   //Parentheses -> uses arguments to parametrize some functionality,                          
vector<int> c(it1,it2); //like filling the vector with 10 integers or copying a range.

vector<int> d{};      //empty braces -> default constructs vector, which is equivalent
                      //to a vector that is filled with zero elements

IIS7: Setup Integrated Windows Authentication like in IIS6

There's another thread elsewhere on Stack with a similar topic and the best solution I've come across is to use the free version of Helicon Ape

Once you've got that installed, follow the steps at the page Titled "HTTP Authentication and Authorization"

Convert to binary and keep leading zeros in Python

Use the format() function:

>>> format(14, '#010b')
'0b00001110'

The format() function simply formats the input following the Format Specification mini language. The # makes the format include the 0b prefix, and the 010 size formats the output to fit in 10 characters width, with 0 padding; 2 characters for the 0b prefix, the other 8 for the binary digits.

This is the most compact and direct option.

If you are putting the result in a larger string, use an formatted string literal (3.6+) or use str.format() and put the second argument for the format() function after the colon of the placeholder {:..}:

>>> value = 14
>>> f'The produced output, in binary, is: {value:#010b}'
'The produced output, in binary, is: 0b00001110'
>>> 'The produced output, in binary, is: {:#010b}'.format(value)
'The produced output, in binary, is: 0b00001110'

As it happens, even for just formatting a single value (so without putting the result in a larger string), using a formatted string literal is faster than using format():

>>> import timeit
>>> timeit.timeit("f_(v, '#010b')", "v = 14; f_ = format")  # use a local for performance
0.40298633499332936
>>> timeit.timeit("f'{v:#010b}'", "v = 14")
0.2850222919951193

But I'd use that only if performance in a tight loop matters, as format(...) communicates the intent better.

If you did not want the 0b prefix, simply drop the # and adjust the length of the field:

>>> format(14, '08b')
'00001110'

How to create relationships in MySQL

If the tables are innodb you can create it like this:

CREATE TABLE accounts(
    account_id INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
    customer_id INT( 4 ) NOT NULL ,
    account_type ENUM( 'savings', 'credit' ) NOT NULL,
    balance FLOAT( 9 ) NOT NULL,
    PRIMARY KEY ( account_id ), 
    FOREIGN KEY (customer_id) REFERENCES customers(customer_id) 
) ENGINE=INNODB;

You have to specify that the tables are innodb because myisam engine doesn't support foreign key. Look here for more info.

Body of Http.DELETE request in Angular2

In Angular 5, I had to use the request method instead of delete to send a body. The documentation for the delete method does not include body, but it is included in the request method.

import { HttpClient } from '@angular/common/http';
import { HttpHeaders } from '@angular/common/http';

this.http.request('DELETE', url, {
    headers: new HttpHeaders({
        'Content-Type': 'application/json',
    }),
    body: { foo: bar }
});

ng-change get new value and original value

Also you can use

<select ng-change="updateValue(user, oldValue)"     
       ng-init="oldValue=0"
       ng-focus="oldValue=user.id"
       ng-model="user.id" ng-options="user.id as user.name for user in users">
</select>

Laravel-5 how to populate select box from database with id value and name value

Laravel provides a Query Builder with lists() function

In your case, you can replace your code

$items = Items::all(['id', 'name']);

with

$items = Items::lists('name', 'id');

Also, you can chain it with other Query Builder as well.

$items = Items::where('active', true)->orderBy('name')->lists('name', 'id');

source: http://laravel.com/docs/5.0/queries#selects


Update for Laravel 5.2

Thank you very much @jarry. As you mentioned, the function for Laravel 5.2 should be

$items = Items::pluck('name', 'id');

or

$items = Items::where('active', true)->orderBy('name')->pluck('name', 'id');

What should I use to open a url instead of urlopen in urllib3

With gazpacho you could pipeline the page straight into a parse-able soup object:

from gazpacho import Soup
url = "http://www.thefamouspeople.com/singers.php"
soup = Soup.get(url)

And run finds on top of it:

soup.find("div")

How to Set a Custom Font in the ActionBar Title?

TRY THIS

public void findAndSetFont(){
        getActionBar().setTitle("SOME TEST TEXT");
        scanForTextViewWithText(this,"SOME TEST TEXT",new SearchTextViewInterface(){

            @Override
            public void found(TextView title) {

            } 
        });
    }

public static void scanForTextViewWithText(Activity activity,String searchText, SearchTextViewInterface searchTextViewInterface){
    if(activity == null|| searchText == null || searchTextViewInterface == null)
        return;
    View view = activity.findViewById(android.R.id.content).getRootView();
    searchForTextViewWithTitle(view, searchText, searchTextViewInterface);
}

private static void searchForTextViewWithTitle(View view, String searchText, SearchTextViewInterface searchTextViewInterface)
{
    if (view instanceof ViewGroup)
    {
        ViewGroup g = (ViewGroup) view;
        int count = g.getChildCount();
        for (int i = 0; i < count; i++)
            searchForTextViewWithTitle(g.getChildAt(i), searchText, searchTextViewInterface);
    }
    else if (view instanceof TextView)
    {
        TextView textView = (TextView) view;
        if(textView.getText().toString().equals(searchText))
            if(searchTextViewInterface!=null)
                searchTextViewInterface.found(textView);
    }
}
public interface SearchTextViewInterface {
    void found(TextView title);
}

Sending HTML Code Through JSON

In PHP:

$data = "<html>....";
exit(json_encode($data));

Then you should use AJAX to retrieve the data and do what you want with it. I suggest using JQuery: http://api.jquery.com/jQuery.getJSON/

Linker error: "linker input file unused because linking not done", undefined reference to a function in that file

I think you are confused about how the compiler puts things together. When you use -c flag, i.e. no linking is done, the input is C++ code, and the output is object code. The .o files thus don't mix with -c, and compiler warns you about that. Symbols from object file are not moved to other object files like that.

All object files should be on the final linker invocation, which is not the case here, so linker (called via g++ front-end) complains about missing symbols.

Here's a small example (calling g++ explicitly for clarity):

PROG ?= myprog
OBJS = worker.o main.o

all: $(PROG)

.cpp.o:
        g++ -Wall -pedantic -ggdb -O2 -c -o $@ $<

$(PROG): $(OBJS)
        g++ -Wall -pedantic -ggdb -O2 -o $@ $(OBJS)

There's also makedepend utility that comes with X11 - helps a lot with source code dependencies. You might also want to look at the -M gcc option for building make rules.

Kotlin unresolved reference in IntelliJ

Another thing I would like to add is that you need to select View -> Tool Windows -> Gradle before you can run the project using the Gradle.

If using the Gradle the project builds and runs normally but using the IntelliJ it doesn't, then this can solve the matter.

Get a particular cell value from HTML table using JavaScript

Here is perhaps the simplest way to obtain the value of a single cell.

document.querySelector("#table").children[0].children[r].children[c].innerText

where r is the row index and c is the column index

Therefore, to obtain all cell data and put it in a multi-dimensional array:

var tableData = [];  
Array.from(document.querySelector("#table").children[0].children).forEach(function(tr){tableData.push(Array.from(tr.children).map(cell => cell.innerText))}); 
var cell = tableData[1][2];//2nd row, 3rd column

To access a specific cell's data in this multi-dimensional array, use the standard syntax: array[rowIndex][columnIndex].

Traverse a list in reverse order in Python

You can use a negative index in an ordinary for loop:

>>> collection = ["ham", "spam", "eggs", "baked beans"]
>>> for i in range(1, len(collection) + 1):
...     print(collection[-i])
... 
baked beans
eggs
spam
ham

To access the index as though you were iterating forward over a reversed copy of the collection, use i - 1:

>>> for i in range(1, len(collection) + 1):
...     print(i-1, collection[-i])
... 
0 baked beans
1 eggs
2 spam
3 ham

To access the original, un-reversed index, use len(collection) - i:

>>> for i in range(1, len(collection) + 1):
...     print(len(collection)-i, collection[-i])
... 
3 baked beans
2 eggs
1 spam
0 ham

Setting DEBUG = False causes 500 Error

I think it could also be the http server settings. Mine is still broken and had ALLOWED_HOSTS the entire time. I can access it locally (i use gunicorn), but not via the domain name when DEBUG=False. when I try using the domain name it then gives me the error, so makes me think its a nginx related issue.

    listen   80;
    server_name localhost myproject.ca www.myproject.ca;

MVC Razor @foreach

When people say don't put logic in views, they're usually referring to business logic, not rendering logic. In my humble opinion, I think using @foreach in views is perfectly fine.

Query an XDocument for elements by name at any depth

Descendants should work absolutely fine. Here's an example:

using System;
using System.Xml.Linq;

class Test
{
    static void Main()
    {
        string xml = @"
<root>
  <child id='1'/>
  <child id='2'>
    <grandchild id='3' />
    <grandchild id='4' />
  </child>
</root>";
        XDocument doc = XDocument.Parse(xml);

        foreach (XElement element in doc.Descendants("grandchild"))
        {
            Console.WriteLine(element);
        }
    }
}

Results:

<grandchild id="3" />
<grandchild id="4" />

How to pass a datetime parameter?

I feel your pain ... yet another date time format... just what you needed!

Using Web Api 2 you can use route attributes to specify parameters.

so with attributes on your class and your method you can code up a REST URL using this utc format you are having trouble with (apparently its ISO8601, presumably arrived at using startDate.toISOString())

[Route(@"daterange/{startDate:regex(^\d{4}-\d{2}-\d{2}T\d{2}:\d{2}:\d{2}.\d{3}Z$)}/{endDate:regex(^\d{4}-\d{2}-\d{2}T\d{2}:\d{2}:\d{2}.\d{3}Z$)}")]
    [HttpGet]
    public IEnumerable<MyRecordType> GetByDateRange(DateTime startDate, DateTime endDate)

.... BUT, although this works with one date (startDate), for some reason it doesnt work when the endDate is in this format ... debugged for hours, only clue is exception says it doesnt like colon ":" (even though web.config is set with :

<system.web>
    <compilation debug="true" targetFramework="4.5.1" />
    <httpRuntime targetFramework="4.5.1" requestPathInvalidCharacters="" />
</system.web>

So, lets make another date format (taken from the polyfill for the ISO date format) and add it to the Javascript date (for brevity, only convert up to minutes):

if (!Date.prototype.toUTCDateTimeDigits) {
    (function () {

        function pad(number) {
            if (number < 10) {
                return '0' + number;
            }
            return number;
        }

        Date.prototype.toUTCDateTimeDigits = function () {
            return this.getUTCFullYear() +
              pad(this.getUTCMonth() + 1) +
              pad(this.getUTCDate()) +
              'T' +
              pad(this.getUTCHours()) +
              pad(this.getUTCMinutes()) +
              'Z';
        };

    }());
}

Then when you send the dates to the Web API 2 method, you can convert them from string to date:

[RoutePrefix("api/myrecordtype")]
public class MyRecordTypeController : ApiController
{


    [Route(@"daterange/{startDateString}/{endDateString}")]
    [HttpGet]
    public IEnumerable<MyRecordType> GetByDateRange([FromUri]string startDateString, [FromUri]string endDateString)
    {
        var startDate = BuildDateTimeFromYAFormat(startDateString);
        var endDate = BuildDateTimeFromYAFormat(endDateString);
    ...
    }

    /// <summary>
    /// Convert a UTC Date String of format yyyyMMddThhmmZ into a Local Date
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="dateString"></param>
    /// <returns></returns>
    private DateTime BuildDateTimeFromYAFormat(string dateString)
    {
        Regex r = new Regex(@"^\d{4}\d{2}\d{2}T\d{2}\d{2}Z$");
        if (!r.IsMatch(dateString))
        {
            throw new FormatException(
                string.Format("{0} is not the correct format. Should be yyyyMMddThhmmZ", dateString)); 
        }

        DateTime dt = DateTime.ParseExact(dateString, "yyyyMMddThhmmZ", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture, DateTimeStyles.AssumeUniversal);

        return dt;
    }

so the url would be

http://domain/api/myrecordtype/daterange/20140302T0003Z/20140302T1603Z

How do I get the APK of an installed app without root access?

Open ES explorer -> push Menu button at the left upper corner (three horizontal stripes) -> in the Libraries section choose APPs.

Thus, you get the list of all the user apps. Find your app and select it with long pushing on it. Then press "More" in the right low corner and choose "Send". Then you can use different options, e.g. you can choose "ES Save To" in order to save the .apk file to your home directory or anywhere else.

Valid content-type for XML, HTML and XHTML documents

HTML: text/html, full-stop.

XHTML: application/xhtml+xml, or only if following HTML compatbility guidelines, text/html. See the W3 Media Types Note.

XML: text/xml, application/xml (RFC 2376).

There are also many other media types based around XML, for example application/rss+xml or image/svg+xml. It's a safe bet that any unrecognised but registered ending in +xml is XML-based. See the IANA list for registered media types ending in +xml.

(For unregistered x- types, all bets are off, but you'd hope +xml would be respected.)

Select value from list of tuples where condition

Yes, you can use filter if you know at which position in the tuple the desired column resides. If the case is that the id is the first element of the tuple then you can filter the list like so:

filter(lambda t: t[0]==10, mylist)

This will return the list of corresponding tuples. If you want the age, just pick the element you want. Instead of filter you could also use list comprehension and pick the element in the first go. You could even unpack it right away (if there is only one result):

[age] = [t[1] for t in mylist if t[0]==10]

But I would strongly recommend to use dictionaries or named tuples for this purpose.

Include in SELECT a column that isn't actually in the database

You may want to use:

SELECT Name, 'Unpaid' AS Status FROM table;

The SELECT clause syntax, as defined in MSDN: SELECT Clause (Transact-SQL), is as follows:

SELECT [ ALL | DISTINCT ]
[ TOP ( expression ) [ PERCENT ] [ WITH TIES ] ] 
<select_list> 

Where the expression can be a constant, function, any combination of column names, constants, and functions connected by an operator or operators, or a subquery.

What is a web service endpoint?

Updated answer, from Peter in comments :

This is de "old terminology", use directally the WSDL2 "endepoint" definition (WSDL2 translated "port" to "endpoint").


Maybe you find an answer in this document : http://www.w3.org/TR/wsdl.html

A WSDL document defines services as collections of network endpoints, or ports. In WSDL, the abstract definition of endpoints and messages is separated from their concrete network deployment or data format bindings. This allows the reuse of abstract definitions: messages, which are abstract descriptions of the data being exchanged, and port types which are abstract collections of operations. The concrete protocol and data format specifications for a particular port type constitutes a reusable binding. A port is defined by associating a network address with a reusable binding, and a collection of ports define a service. Hence, a WSDL document uses the following elements in the definition of network services:

  • Types– a container for data type definitions using some type system (such as XSD).
  • Message– an abstract, typed definition of the data being communicated.
  • Operation– an abstract description of an action supported by the service.
  • Port Type–an abstract set of operations supported by one or more endpoints.
  • Binding– a concrete protocol and data format specification for a particular port type.
  • Port– a single endpoint defined as a combination of a binding and a network address.
  • Service– a collection of related endpoints.

http://www.ehow.com/info_12212371_definition-service-endpoint.html

The endpoint is a connection point where HTML files or active server pages are exposed. Endpoints provide information needed to address a Web service endpoint. The endpoint provides a reference or specification that is used to define a group or family of message addressing properties and give end-to-end message characteristics, such as references for the source and destination of endpoints, and the identity of messages to allow for uniform addressing of "independent" messages. The endpoint can be a PC, PDA, or point-of-sale terminal.

Overlapping elements in CSS

You can use relative positioning to overlap your elements. However, the space they would normally occupy will still be reserved for the element:

<div style="background-color:#f00;width:200px;height:100px;">
    DEFAULT POSITIONED
</div>
<div style="background-color:#0f0;width:200px;height:100px;position:relative;top:-50px;left:50px;">
    RELATIVE POSITIONED
</div>
<div style="background-color:#00f;width:200px;height:100px;">
    DEFAULT POSITIONED
</div>

In the example above, there will be a block of white space between the two 'DEFAULT POSITIONED' elements. This is caused, because the 'RELATIVE POSITIONED' element still has it's space reserved.

If you use absolute positioning, your elements will not have any space reserved, so your element will actually overlap, without breaking your document:

<div style="background-color:#f00;width:200px;height:100px;">
    DEFAULT POSITIONED
</div>
<div style="background-color:#0f0;width:200px;height:100px;position:absolute;top:50px;left:50px;">
    ABSOLUTE POSITIONED
</div>
<div style="background-color:#00f;width:200px;height:100px;">
    DEFAULT POSITIONED
</div>

Finally, you can control which elements are on top of the others by using z-index:

<div style="z-index:10;background-color:#f00;width:200px;height:100px;">
    DEFAULT POSITIONED
</div>
<div style="z-index:5;background-color:#0f0;width:200px;height:100px;position:absolute;top:50px;left:50px;">
    ABSOLUTE POSITIONED
</div>
<div style="z-index:0;background-color:#00f;width:200px;height:100px;">
    DEFAULT POSITIONED
</div>

How to link external javascript file onclick of button

I have to agree with the comments above, that you can't call a file, but you could load a JS file like this, I'm unsure if it answers your question but it may help... oh and I've used a link instead of a button in my example...

<a href='linkhref.html' id='mylink'>click me</a>

<script type="text/javascript">

var myLink = document.getElementById('mylink');

myLink.onclick = function(){

    var script = document.createElement("script");
    script.type = "text/javascript";
    script.src = "Public/Scripts/filename.js."; 
    document.getElementsByTagName("head")[0].appendChild(script);
    return false;

}

Where do I find the current C or C++ standard documents?

The ISO C and C++ standards are bloody expensive. On the other hand, the INCITS republishes them for a lot less. http://www.techstreet.com/ seems to have the PDF for $30 (search for INCITS/ISO/IEC 14882:2003).

Hardcopy versions are available, too. Look for the British Standards Institute versions, published by Wiley.

How to make a div center align in HTML

I think that the the align="center" aligns the content, so if you wanted to use that method, you would need to use it in a 'wraper' div - a div that just wraps the rest.

text-align is doing a similar sort of thing.

left:50% is ignored unless you set the div's position to be something like relative or absolute.

The generally accepted methods is to use the following properties

width:500px; // this can be what ever unit you want, you just have to define it
margin-left:auto;
margin-right:auto;

the margins being auto means they grow/shrink to match the browser window (or parent div)

UPDATE

Thanks to Meo for poiting this out, if you wanted to you could save time and use the short hand propery for the margin.

margin:0 auto;

this defines the top and bottom as 0 (as it is zero it does not matter about lack of units) and the left and right get defined as 'auto' You can then, if you wan't override say the top margin as you would with any other CSS rules.

What does <T> (angle brackets) mean in Java?

It's really simple. It's a new feature introduced in J2SE 5. Specifying angular brackets after the class name means you are creating a temporary data type which can hold any type of data.

Example:

class A<T>{
    T obj;
    void add(T obj){
        this.obj=obj;
    }
    T get(){
        return obj;
    }
}
public class generics {
    static<E> void print(E[] elements){
        for(E element:elements){
            System.out.println(element);
        }
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        A<String> obj=new A<String>();
        A<Integer> obj1=new A<Integer>();
        obj.add("hello");
        obj1.add(6);
        System.out.println(obj.get());
        System.out.println(obj1.get());

        Integer[] arr={1,3,5,7};
        print(arr);
    }
}

Instead of <T>, you can actually write anything and it will work the same way. Try writing <ABC> in place of <T>.

This is just for convenience:

  • <T> is referred to as any type
  • <E> as element type
  • <N> as number type
  • <V> as value
  • <K> as key

But you can name it anything you want, it doesn't really matter.

Moreover, Integer, String, Boolean etc are wrapper classes of Java which help in checking of types during compilation. For example, in the above code, obj is of type String, so you can't add any other type to it (try obj.add(1), it will cast an error). Similarly, obj1 is of the Integer type, you can't add any other type to it (try obj1.add("hello"), error will be there).

Transparent image - background color

If I understand you right, you can do this:

<img src="image.png" style="background-color:red;" />

In fact, you can even apply a whole background-image to the image, resulting in two "layers" without the need for multi-background support in the browser ;)

Adding content to a linear layout dynamically?

I found more accurate way to adding views like linear layouts in kotlin (Pass parent layout in inflate() and false)

val parentLayout = view.findViewById<LinearLayout>(R.id.llRecipientParent)
val childView = layoutInflater.inflate(R.layout.layout_recipient, parentLayout, false)
parentLayout.addView(childView)

How to do if-else in Thymeleaf?

I'd like to share my example related to security in addition to Daniel Fernández.

<div th:switch="${#authentication}? ${#authorization.expression('isAuthenticated()')} : ${false}">
    <span th:case="${false}">User is not logged in</span>
    <span th:case="${true}">Logged in user</span>
    <span th:case="*">Should never happen, but who knows...</span>
</div>

Here is complex expression with mixed 'authentication' and 'authorization' utility objects which produces 'true/false' result for thymeleaf template code.

The 'authentication' and 'authorization' utility objects came from thymeleaf extras springsecurity3 library. When 'authentication' object is not available OR authorization.expression('isAuthenticated()') evaluates to 'false', expression returns ${false}, otherwise ${true}.

How to clear the entire array?

How do I calculate the normal vector of a line segment?

Another way to think of it is to calculate the unit vector for a given direction and then apply a 90 degree counterclockwise rotation to get the normal vector.

The matrix representation of the general 2D transformation looks like this:

x' = x cos(t) - y sin(t)
y' = x sin(t) + y cos(t)

where (x,y) are the components of the original vector and (x', y') are the transformed components.

If t = 90 degrees, then cos(90) = 0 and sin(90) = 1. Substituting and multiplying it out gives:

x' = -y
y' = +x

Same result as given earlier, but with a little more explanation as to where it comes from.

How to search for rows containing a substring?

Info on MySQL's full text search. This is restricted to MyISAM tables, so may not be suitable if you wantto use a different table type.

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/fulltext-search.html

Even if WHERE textcolumn LIKE "%SUBSTRING%" is going to be slow, I think it is probably better to let the Database handle it rather than have PHP handle it. If it is possible to restrict searches by some other criteria (date range, user, etc) then you may find the substring search is OK (ish).

If you are searching for whole words, you could pull out all the individual words into a separate table and use that to restrict the substring search. (So when searching for "my search string" you look for the the longest word "search" only do the substring search on records containing the word "search")

When to use Common Table Expression (CTE)

Does it make sense to use Require.js with Angular.js?

Yes, it does, specially for very large SPA.

In some scenario, RequireJS is a must. For example, I develop PhoneGap applications using AngularJS that also uses Google Map API. Without AMD loader like RequireJS, the app would simply crash upon launch when offline as it cannot source the Google Map API scripts. An AMD loader gives me a chance to display an error message to the user.

However, integration between AngularJS and RequireJS is a bit tricky. I created angularAMD to make this a less painful process:

How to read embedded resource text file

Read Embedded TXT FILE on Form Load Event.

Set the Variables Dynamically.

string f1 = "AppName.File1.Ext";
string f2 = "AppName.File2.Ext";
string f3 = "AppName.File3.Ext";

Call a Try Catch.

try 
{
     IncludeText(f1,f2,f3); 
     /// Pass the Resources Dynamically 
     /// through the call stack.
}

catch (Exception Ex)
{
     MessageBox.Show(Ex.Message);  
     /// Error for if the Stream is Null.
}

Create Void for IncludeText(), Visual Studio Does this for you. Click the Lightbulb to AutoGenerate The CodeBlock.

Put the following inside the Generated Code Block

Resource 1

var assembly = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly();
using (Stream stream = assembly.GetManifestResourceStream(file1))
using (StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(stream))
{
string result1 = reader.ReadToEnd();
richTextBox1.AppendText(result1 + Environment.NewLine + Environment.NewLine );
}

Resource 2

var assembly = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly();
using (Stream stream = assembly.GetManifestResourceStream(file2))
using (StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(stream))
{
string result2 = reader.ReadToEnd();
richTextBox1.AppendText(
result2 + Environment.NewLine + 
Environment.NewLine );
}

Resource 3

var assembly = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly();
using (Stream stream = assembly.GetManifestResourceStream(file3))

using (StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(stream))
{
    string result3 = reader.ReadToEnd();
    richTextBox1.AppendText(result3);
}

If you wish to send the returned variable somewhere else, just call another function and...

using (StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(stream))
{
    string result3 = reader.ReadToEnd();
    ///richTextBox1.AppendText(result3);
    string extVar = result3;

    /// another try catch here.

   try {

   SendVariableToLocation(extVar)
   {
         //// Put Code Here.
   }

       }

  catch (Exception ex)
  {
    Messagebox.Show(ex.Message);
  }

}

What this achieved was this, a method to combine multiple txt files, and read their embedded data, inside a single rich text box. which was my desired effect with this sample of Code.

error LNK2005: xxx already defined in MSVCRT.lib(MSVCR100.dll) C:\something\LIBCMT.lib(setlocal.obj)

You are mixing code that was compiled with /MD (use DLL version of CRT) with code that was compiled with /MT (use static CRT library). That cannot work, all source code files must be compiled with the same setting. Given that you use libraries that were pre-compiled with /MD, almost always the correct setting, you must compile your own code with this setting as well.

Project + Properties, C/C++, Code Generation, Runtime Library.

Beware that these libraries were probably compiled with an earlier version of the CRT, msvcr100.dll is quite new. Not sure if that will cause trouble, you may have to prevent the linker from generating a manifest. You must also make sure to deploy the DLLs you need to the target machine, including msvcr100.dll

iOS9 Untrusted Enterprise Developer with no option to trust

Changes to Enterprise App Distribution Coming in iOS 9

iOS 9 introduces a new feature to help protect users from installing in-house apps from untrusted sources. While no new app signing or provisioning methods are required, the way your enterprise users manage in-house apps installed on their iOS 9 devices will change.

In-house apps installed using an MDM solution are explicitly trusted and will no longer prompt the user to trust the developer that signed and provisioned the app. If your enterprise app does not use an MDM solution, users who install your app for the first time will be prompted to trust the developer. All users who install your app for the first time will need an internet connection.

Using a new restriction, organizations can limit the apps installed on their devices to the in-house apps that they create. And a new interface in Settings allows users to see all enterprise apps installed from their organization.

How to declare an ArrayList with values?

In Java 9+ you can do:

var x = List.of("xyz", "abc");
// 'var' works only for local variables

Java 8 using Stream:

Stream.of("xyz", "abc").collect(Collectors.toList());

And of course, you can create a new object using the constructor that accepts a Collection:

List<String> x = new ArrayList<>(Arrays.asList("xyz", "abc"));

Tip: The docs contains very useful information that usually contains the answer you're looking for. For example, here are the constructors of the ArrayList class:

jquery input select all on focus

The problem with most of these solutions is that they do not work correctly when changing the cursor position within the input field.

The onmouseup event changes the cursor position within the field, which is fired after onfocus (at least within Chrome and FF). If you unconditionally discard the mouseup then the user cannot change the cursor position with the mouse.

function selectOnFocus(input) {
    input.each(function (index, elem) {
        var jelem = $(elem);
        var ignoreNextMouseUp = false;

        jelem.mousedown(function () {
            if (document.activeElement !== elem) {
                ignoreNextMouseUp = true;
            }
        });
        jelem.mouseup(function (ev) {
            if (ignoreNextMouseUp) {
                ev.preventDefault();
                ignoreNextMouseUp = false;
            }
        });
        jelem.focus(function () {
            jelem.select();
        });
    });
}
selectOnFocus($("#myInputElement"));

The code will conditionally prevent the mouseup default behaviour if the field does not currently have focus. It works for these cases:

  • clicking when field is not focused
  • clicking when field has focus
  • tabbing into the field

I have tested this within Chrome 31, FF 26 and IE 11.

How can I do time/hours arithmetic in Google Spreadsheet?

if you have duration in h:mm, the actual value stored in that cell is the time converted to a real number, divided by 24 hours per day.

ex: 6:45 or 6 hours 45 minutes is 6.75 hours 6.75 hours / 24 = 0.28125 (in other words 6hrs45minutes is 28.125% of a day). If you use a column to convert your durations into actual numbers (in example, converting 6:45 into 0.28125) then you can do you multiplication or division and get the correct answer.

Erase the current printed console line

You can use a \r (carriage return) to return the cursor to the beginning of the line:

printf("hello");
printf("\rbye");

This will print bye on the same line. It won't erase the existing characters though, and because bye is shorter than hello, you will end up with byelo. To erase it you can make your new print longer to overwrite the extra characters:

printf("hello");
printf("\rbye  ");

Or, first erase it with a few spaces, then print your new string:

printf("hello");
printf("\r          ");
printf("\rbye");

That will print hello, then go to the beginning of the line and overwrite it with spaces, then go back to the beginning again and print bye.

This one works for me:

index.php

    <?php
       if(isset($_GET['action']))
              {
                 //your code
                 echo 'Welcome';
              }
    ?>


    <form id="frm" method="post"  action="?action" >
    <input type="submit" value="Submit" id="submit" />
    </form>

How to setup virtual environment for Python in VS Code?

Many have mentioned the python.pythonPath method.

Another way is adding a envFile in the launch.json like this:

    {
        "name": "Run",
        "etc": "etc",
        "envFile": "${workspaceFolder}/venv"
    }

How do I split a string in Rust?

There are three simple ways:

  1. By separator:

     s.split("separator")  |  s.split('/')  |  s.split(char::is_numeric)
    
  2. By whitespace:

     s.split_whitespace()
    
  3. By newlines:

     s.lines()
    
  4. By regex: (using regex crate)

     Regex::new(r"\s").unwrap().split("one two three")
    

The result of each kind is an iterator:

let text = "foo\r\nbar\n\nbaz\n";
let mut lines = text.lines();

assert_eq!(Some("foo"), lines.next());
assert_eq!(Some("bar"), lines.next());
assert_eq!(Some(""), lines.next());
assert_eq!(Some("baz"), lines.next());

assert_eq!(None, lines.next());

Finding last occurrence of substring in string, replacing that

You can use the function below which replaces the first occurrence of the word from right.

def replace_from_right(text: str, original_text: str, new_text: str) -> str:
    """ Replace first occurrence of original_text by new_text. """
    return text[::-1].replace(original_text[::-1], new_text[::-1], 1)[::-1]

Hide a EditText & make it visible by clicking a menu

protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.waist2height); {
        final EditText edit = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.editText);          
        final RadioButton rb1 = (RadioButton) findViewById(R.id.radioCM);
        final RadioButton rb2 = (RadioButton) findViewById(R.id.radioFT);                       
        if(rb1.isChecked()){    
            edit.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);              
        }
        else if(rb2.isChecked()){               
            edit.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE);
        }
}

Cannot open include file: 'unistd.h': No such file or directory

If you're using ZLib in your project, then you need to find :

#if 1

in zconf.h and replace(uncomment) it with :

#if HAVE_UNISTD_H /* ...the rest of the line

If it isn't ZLib I guess you should find some alternative way to do this. GL.

How to use If Statement in Where Clause in SQL?

SELECT *
  FROM Customer
 WHERE (I.IsClose=@ISClose OR @ISClose is NULL)  
   AND (C.FirstName like '%'+@ClientName+'%' or @ClientName is NULL )    
   AND (isnull(@Value,1) <> 2
        OR I.RecurringCharge = @Total
        OR @Total is NULL )    
   AND (isnull(@Value,2) <> 3
        OR I.RecurringCharge like '%'+cast(@Total as varchar(50))+'%'
        OR @Total is NULL )

Basically, your condition was

if (@Value=2)
   TEST FOR => (I.RecurringCharge=@Total  or @Total is NULL )    

flipped around,

AND (isnull(@Value,1) <> 2                -- A
        OR I.RecurringCharge = @Total    -- B
        OR @Total is NULL )              -- C

When (A) is true, i.e. @Value is not 2, [A or B or C] will become TRUE regardless of B and C results. B and C are in reality only checked when @Value = 2, which is the original intention.

Error: Cannot pull with rebase: You have unstaged changes

Do git status, this will show you what files have changed. Since you stated that you don't want to keep the changes you can do git checkout -- <file name> or git reset --hard to get rid of the changes.

For the most part, git will tell you what to do about changes. For example, your error message said to git stash your changes. This would be if you wanted to keep them. After pulling, you would then do git stash pop and your changes would be reapplied.

git status also has how to get rid of changes depending on if the file is staged for commit or not.

Abstract methods in Python

See the abc module. Basically, you define __metaclass__ = abc.ABCMeta on the class, then decorate each abstract method with @abc.abstractmethod. Classes derived from this class cannot then be instantiated unless all abstract methods have been overridden.

If your class is already using a metaclass, derive it from ABCMeta rather than type and you can continue to use your own metaclass.

A cheap alternative (and the best practice before the abc module was introduced) would be to have all your abstract methods just raise an exception (NotImplementedError is a good one) so that classes derived from it would have to override that method to be useful.

However, the abc solution is better because it keeps such classes from being instantiated at all (i.e., it "fails faster"), and also because you can provide a default or base implementation of each method that can be reached using the super() function in derived classes.

How can I clear the SQL Server query cache?

Here is some good explaination. check out it.

http://www.mssqltips.com/tip.asp?tip=1360

CHECKPOINT; 
GO 
DBCC DROPCLEANBUFFERS; 
GO

From the linked article:

If all of the performance testing is conducted in SQL Server the best approach may be to issue a CHECKPOINT and then issue the DBCC DROPCLEANBUFFERS command. Although the CHECKPOINT process is an automatic internal system process in SQL Server and occurs on a regular basis, it is important to issue this command to write all of the dirty pages for the current database to disk and clean the buffers. Then the DBCC DROPCLEANBUFFERS command can be executed to remove all buffers from the buffer pool.

How to change column width in DataGridView?

Set the "AutoSizeColumnsMode" property to "Fill".. By default it is set to 'NONE'. Now columns will be filled across the DatagridView. Then you can set the width of other columns accordingly.

DataGridView1.Columns[0].Width=100;// The id column 
DataGridView1.Columns[1].Width=200;// The abbrevation columln
//Third Colulmns 'description' will automatically be resized to fill the remaining 
//space

Disable color change of anchor tag when visited

For :hover to override :visited, and to make sure :visited is the same as the initial color, :hover must come after :visited.

So if you want to disable the color change, a:visited must come before a:hover. Like this:

a { color: gray; }
a:visited { color: orange; }
a:hover { color: red; }

To disable :visited change you would style it with non-pseudo class:

a, a:visited { color: gray; }
a:hover { color: red; }

What is the best way to update the entity in JPA

That depends on what you want to do, but as you said, getting an entity reference using find() and then just updating that entity is the easiest way to do that.

I'd not bother about performance differences of the various methods unless you have strong indications that this really matters.

Export data from R to Excel

Another option is the openxlsx-package. It doesn't depend on and can read, edit and write Excel-files. From the description from the package:

openxlsx simplifies the the process of writing and styling Excel xlsx files from R and removes the dependency on Java

Example usage:

library(openxlsx)

# read data from an Excel file or Workbook object into a data.frame
df <- read.xlsx('name-of-your-excel-file.xlsx')

# for writing a data.frame or list of data.frames to an xlsx file
write.xlsx(df, 'name-of-your-excel-file.xlsx')

Besides these two basic functions, the openxlsx-package has a host of other functions for manipulating Excel-files.

For example, with the writeDataTable-function you can create formatted tables in an Excel-file.

When are static variables initialized?

From See Java Static Variable Methods:

  • It is a variable which belongs to the class and not to object(instance)
  • Static variables are initialized only once , at the start of the execution. These variables will be initialized first, before the initialization of any instance variables
  • A single copy to be shared by all instances of the class
  • A static variable can be accessed directly by the class name and doesn’t need any object.

Instance and class (static) variables are automatically initialized to standard default values if you fail to purposely initialize them. Although local variables are not automatically initialized, you cannot compile a program that fails to either initialize a local variable or assign a value to that local variable before it is used.

What the compiler actually does is to internally produce a single class initialization routine that combines all the static variable initializers and all of the static initializer blocks of code, in the order that they appear in the class declaration. This single initialization procedure is run automatically, one time only, when the class is first loaded.

In case of inner classes, they can not have static fields

An inner class is a nested class that is not explicitly or implicitly declared static.

...

Inner classes may not declare static initializers (§8.7) or member interfaces...

Inner classes may not declare static members, unless they are constant variables...

See JLS 8.1.3 Inner Classes and Enclosing Instances

final fields in Java can be initialized separately from their declaration place this is however can not be applicable to static final fields. See the example below.

final class Demo
{
    private final int x;
    private static final int z;  //must be initialized here.

    static 
    {
        z = 10;  //It can be initialized here.
    }

    public Demo(int x)
    {
        this.x=x;  //This is possible.
        //z=15; compiler-error - can not assign a value to a final variable z
    }
}

This is because there is just one copy of the static variables associated with the type, rather than one associated with each instance of the type as with instance variables and if we try to initialize z of type static final within the constructor, it will attempt to reinitialize the static final type field z because the constructor is run on each instantiation of the class that must not occur to static final fields.

LaTeX "\indent" creating paragraph indentation / tabbing package requirement?

This is kind of a hack but the best solution that I have found is to use a description tag with no \item. This will produce an error from the latex compiler; however, the error does not prevent the pdf from being generated.

\begin{description} 
     <YOUR TEXT HERE> 
\end{description}
  • This only worked on windows latex compiler

Ansible: filter a list by its attributes

To filter a list of dicts you can use the selectattr filter together with the equalto test:

network.addresses.private_man | selectattr("type", "equalto", "fixed")

The above requires Jinja2 v2.8 or later (regardless of Ansible version).


Ansible also has the tests match and search, which take regular expressions:

match will require a complete match in the string, while search will require a match inside of the string.

network.addresses.private_man | selectattr("type", "match", "^fixed$")

To reduce the list of dicts to a list of strings, so you only get a list of the addr fields, you can use the map filter:

... | map(attribute='addr') | list

Or if you want a comma separated string:

... | map(attribute='addr') | join(',')

Combined, it would look like this.

- debug: msg={{ network.addresses.private_man | selectattr("type", "equalto", "fixed") | map(attribute='addr') | join(',') }}

How to change background and text colors in Sublime Text 3

I had the same issue. Sublime3 no longer shows all of the installed packages when you choose Show Packages from the Preferences Menu.

To customise a colour scheme do the following (UNIX):

  • Locate your SublimeText packages directory under the directory which SublimeText is installed in (in my setup this was /opt/sublime/Packages)
  • Open "Color Scheme - Default.sublime-package"
  • Choose the colour scheme which is closest to your requirements and copy it
  • From Sublime Text choose Preferences - Browse Packages - User
  • Paste the colour scheme you copied earlier here and rename it. It should now show up on your "Preferences - Color Scheme" menu under "User"
  • Follow the instructions at the link you previously mentioned to make the changes you require (Sublime 2 -changing background color based on file type?)

--- EDIT ---

For Mac OS X the themes are stored in zipped files so although the preferences file shows them as being in Packages/Color Scheme - Default/ they don't appear in that directory unless you extract them.

  • They can be extracted using the Package Resource Viewer (See this answer for how to install and use the Package Resource Viewer).
  • Search for Color Scheme in the Package Extractor (should give options for Color Scheme Default and Color Scheme legacy)
  • Extract the one you want. It will now be available at users/UserName/Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 3/Packages/Color Scheme - Default (or Legacy)
  • Make a copy of the scheme you want to modify, edit as needed and save it
  • Add or change the line in user preferences which points to the color scheme

for example

"color_scheme": "Packages/Color Scheme - Legacy/myTheme.tmTheme"

How do I remove the old history from a git repository?

There are too many answers here which are not current and some don't fully explain the consequences. Here's what worked for me for trimming down the history using latest git 2.26:

First create a dummy commit. This commit will appear as the first commit in your truncated repo. You need this because this commit will hold all base files for the history you are keeping. The SHA is the ID of the previous commit of the commit you want to keep (in this example, 8365366). The string 'Initial' will show up as commit message of the first commit. If you are using Windows, type below command from Git Bash command prompt.

# 8365366 is id of parent commit after which you want to preserve history
echo 'Initial' | git commit-tree 8365366^{tree}

Above command will print SHA, for example, d10f7503bc1ec9d367da15b540887730db862023.

Now just type:

# d10f750 is commit ID from previous command
git rebase --onto d10f750 8365366

This will first put all files as-of commit 8365366 in to the dummy commit d10f750. Then it will play back all commits after 8365366 over the top of d10f750. Finally master branch pointer will be updated to last commit played back.

Now if you want to push these truncated repo, just do git push -f.

Few things to keep in mind (these applies to other methods as well as this one): Tags are not transferred. While commit IDs and timestamps are preserved, you will see GitHub show these commits in lumpsum heading like Commits on XY date.

Fortunately it is possible to keep truncated history as "archive" and later you can join back trimmed repo with archive repo. For doing this, see this guide.

How do I clone a range of array elements to a new array?

How about this:

public T[] CloneCopy(T[] array, int startIndex, int endIndex) where T : ICloneable
{
    T[] retArray = new T[endIndex - startIndex];
    for (int i = startIndex; i < endIndex; i++)
    {
        array[i - startIndex] = array[i].Clone();
    }
    return retArray;

}

You then need to implement the ICloneable interface on all of the classes you need to use this on but that should do it.

how to wait for first command to finish?

Shell scripts, no matter how they are executed, execute one command after the other. So your code will execute results.sh after the last command of st_new.sh has finished.

Now there is a special command which messes this up: &

cmd &

means: "Start a new background process and execute cmd in it. After starting the background process, immediately continue with the next command in the script."

That means & doesn't wait for cmd to do it's work. My guess is that st_new.sh contains such a command. If that is the case, then you need to modify the script:

cmd &
BACK_PID=$!

This puts the process ID (PID) of the new background process in the variable BACK_PID. You can then wait for it to end:

while kill -0 $BACK_PID ; do
    echo "Process is still active..."
    sleep 1
    # You can add a timeout here if you want
done

or, if you don't want any special handling/output simply

wait $BACK_PID

Note that some programs automatically start a background process when you run them, even if you omit the &. Check the documentation, they often have an option to write their PID to a file or you can run them in the foreground with an option and then use the shell's & command instead to get the PID.

Get raw POST body in Python Flask regardless of Content-Type header

Use request.get_data() to get the raw data, regardless of content type. The data is cached and you can subsequently access request.data, request.json, request.form at will.

If you access request.data first, it will call get_data with an argument to parse form data first. If the request has a form content type (multipart/form-data, application/x-www-form-urlencoded, or application/x-url-encoded) then the raw data will be consumed. request.data and request.json will appear empty in this case.

Configuring so that pip install can work from github

I had similar issue when I had to install from github repo, but did not want to install git , etc.

The simple way to do it is using zip archive of the package. Add /zipball/master to the repo URL:

    $ pip install https://github.com/hmarr/django-debug-toolbar-mongo/zipball/master

Dropping connected users in Oracle database

Basically I believe that killing all sessions should be the solution, but...

I found similar discussion - https://community.oracle.com/thread/1054062 to my problem and that was I had no sessions for that users, but I still received the error. I tried also second the best answer:

sql>Shutdown immediate;

sql>startup restrict;

sql>drop user TEST cascade;

What worked for me at the end was to login as the user, drop all tables manually - select for creating drop statements is

select 'drop table ' || TABLE_NAME || ';'  from user_tables;

(Needs to be re-run several times because of references)

I have no idea how is that related, I dropped also functions and sequences (because that was all I had in schema)

When I did that and I logged off, I had several sessions in v$session table and when I killed those I was able to drop user.

My DB was still started in restricted mode (not sure if important or not).

Might help someone else.

BTW: my Oracle version is Oracle Database 12c Enterprise Edition Release 12.1.0.2.0 - 64bit Production

How do you programmatically update query params in react-router?

I prefer you to use below function that is ES6 style:

getQueryStringParams = query => {
    return query
        ? (/^[?#]/.test(query) ? query.slice(1) : query)
            .split('&')
            .reduce((params, param) => {
                    let [key, value] = param.split('=');
                    params[key] = value ? decodeURIComponent(value.replace(/\+/g, ' ')) : '';
                    return params;
                }, {}
            )
        : {}
};

MSSQL Select statement with incremental integer column... not from a table

It is ugly and performs badly, but technically this works on any table with at least one unique field AND works in SQL 2000.

SELECT (SELECT COUNT(*) FROM myTable T1 WHERE T1.UniqueField<=T2.UniqueField) as RowNum, T2.OtherField
FROM myTable T2
ORDER By T2.UniqueField

Note: If you use this approach and add a WHERE clause to the outer SELECT, you have to added it to the inner SELECT also if you want the numbers to be continuous.

Get changes from master into branch in Git

EDIT:

My answer below documents a way to merge master into aq, where if you view the details of the merge it lists the changes made on aq prior to the merge, not the changes made on master. I've realised that that probably isn't what you want, even if you think it is!

Just:

git checkout aq
git merge master

is fine.

Yes, this simple merge will show that the changes from master were made to aq at that point, not the other way round; but that is okay – since that is what did happen! Later on, when you finally merge your branch into master, that is when a merge will finally show all your changes as made to master (which is exactly what you want, and is the commit where people are going to expect to find that info anyway).

I've checked and the approach below also shows exactly the same changes (all the changes made on aq since the original split between aq and master) as the normal approach above, when you finally merge everything back to master. So I think its only real disadvantage (apart from being over-complex and non-standard... :-/ ) is that if you wind back n recent changes with git reset --hard HEAD~<n> and this goes past the merge, then the version below rolls back down the 'wrong' branch, which you have to fix up by hand (e.g. with git reflog & git reset --hard [sha]).


[So, what I previously thought was that:]

There is a problem with:

git checkout aq
git merge master

because the changes shown in the merge commit (e.g. if you look now or later in Github, Bitbucket or your favourite local git history viewer) are the changes made on master, which may well not be what you want.

On the other hand

git checkout master
git merge aq

shows the changes made in aq, which probably is what you want. (Or, at least, it's often what I want!) But the merge showing the right changes is on the wrong branch!

How to cope?!

The full process, ending up with a merge commit showing the changes made on aq (as per the second merge above), but with the merge affecting the aq branch, is:

git checkout master
git merge aq
git checkout aq
git merge master
git checkout master
git reset --hard HEAD~1
git checkout aq

This: merges aq onto master, fast-forwards that same merge onto aq, undoes it on master, and puts you back on aq again!

I feel like I'm missing something - this seems to be something you'd obviously want, and something that's hard to do.

Also, rebase is NOT equivalent. It loses the timestamps and identity of the commits made on aq, which is also not what I want.

How to remove only 0 (Zero) values from column in excel 2010

I selected columns that I want to delete 0 values then clicked DATA > FILTER. In column's header there is a filter icon appears. I clicked on that icon and selected only 0 values and clicked OK. Only 0 values becomes selected. Finally clear content OR use DELETE button.

Then to remove the blank rows from the deleted 0 values removed. I click DATA > FILTER I clicked on that filter icon and unselected blanks copy and paste the remaining data into a new sheet.

jQuery ajax success callback function definition

I would write :

var handleData = function (data) {
    alert(data);
    //do some stuff
}


function getData() {
    $.ajax({
        url : 'example.com',
        type: 'GET',
        success : handleData
    })
}

Google Maps API warning: NoApiKeys

I had the same problem and I found out that if you add the URL param ?v=3 you won't get the warning message anymore:

<script type="text/javascript" src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?v=3"></script>

Reproduction online

As pointed out in the comments by @Zia Ul Rehman Mughal

Turns out specifying this means you are referring to old frozen version 3.0 not the latest version. Frozen old versions are not updated with bug fixes or anything. But this is good to mention though. https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/versions#the-frozen-version

This solution doesn't work anymore.

How to detect when cancel is clicked on file input?

You can catch the cancel if you choose the same file as previously and you click cancel: in this case.

You can do it like this:

<input type="file" id="myinputfile"/>
<script>
document.getElementById('myinputfile').addEventListener('change', myMethod, false);
function myMethod(evt) {
  var files = evt.target.files; 
  f= files[0];
  if (f==undefined) {
     // the user has clicked on cancel
  }
  else if (f.name.match(".*\.jpg")|| f.name.match(".*\.png")) {
     //.... the user has choosen an image file
     var reader = new FileReader();
     reader.onload = function(evt) { 
        try {
        myimage.src=evt.target.result;
            ...
         } catch (err) {
            ...
         }
     };
  }     
  reader.readAsDataURL(f);          
</script>

Node.js: how to consume SOAP XML web service

I used the node net module to open a socket to the webservice.

/* on Login request */
socket.on('login', function(credentials /* {username} {password} */){

        _this.net.connect(8081, '127.0.0.1', function() {
            logger.gps('('+socket.id + ') '+credentials.username+' connected to: 127.0.0.1:8081');
            _this.netConnected = true;
            _this.username = credentials.username;

convert htaccess to nginx

Have not tested it yet, but the looks are better than the one Alex mentions.

The description at winginx.com/en/htaccess says:

About the htaccess to nginx converter

The service is to convert an Apache's .htaccess to nginx configuration instructions.

First of all, the service was thought as a mod_rewrite to nginx converter. However, it allows you to convert some other instructions that have reason to be ported from Apache to nginx.

Note server instructions (e.g. php_value, etc.) are ignored.

The converter does not check syntax, including regular expressions and logic errors.

Please, check the result manually before use.

function to return a string in java

In Java, a String is a reference to heap-allocated storage. Returning "ans" only returns the reference so there is no need for stack-allocated storage. In fact, there is no way in Java to allocate objects in stack storage.

I would change to this, though. You don't need "ans" at all.

return String.format("%d:%d", mins, secs);

How to update cursor limit for ORA-01000: maximum open cursors exceed

RUn the following query to find if you are running spfile or not:

SELECT DECODE(value, NULL, 'PFILE', 'SPFILE') "Init File Type" 
       FROM sys.v_$parameter WHERE name = 'spfile';

If the result is "SPFILE", then use the following command:

alter system set open_cursors = 4000 scope=both; --4000 is the number of open cursor

if the result is "PFILE", then use the following command:

alter system set open_cursors = 1000 ;

You can read about SPFILE vs PFILE here,

How to return a html page from a restful controller in spring boot?

I did three things:

  • Put the HTML page in {project.basedir}/resources/static/myPage.html;
  • Switch @RestController to @Controller;
  • This is my controller:
@RequestMapping(method = RequestMethod.GET, value = "/")
public String aName() {
    return "myPage.html";
}

No particular dependency is needed.

javascript - match string against the array of regular expressions

Consider breaking this problem up into two pieces:

  1. filter out the items that match the given regular expression
  2. determine if that filtered list has 0 matches in it
const sampleStringData = ["frog", "pig", "tiger"];

const matches = sampleStringData.filter((animal) => /any.regex.here/.test(animal));

if (matches.length === 0) {
  console.log("No matches");
}

How can I compare a date and a datetime in Python?

Use the .date() method to convert a datetime to a date:

if item_date.date() > from_date:

Alternatively, you could use datetime.today() instead of date.today(). You could use

from_date = from_date.replace(hour=0, minute=0, second=0, microsecond=0)

to eliminate the time part afterwards.

Loop through array of values with Arrow Function

In short:

someValues.forEach((element) => {
    console.log(element);
});

If you care about index, then second parameter can be passed to receive the index of current element:

someValues.forEach((element, index) => {
    console.log(`Current index: ${index}`);
    console.log(element);
});

In ASP.NET, when should I use Session.Clear() rather than Session.Abandon()?

I had this issue and tried both, but had to settle for removing crap like "pageEditState", but not removing user info lest I have to look it up again.

{
    foreach (String o in HttpContext.Current.Session.Keys)
    {
        if (o != "UserInfoIDontWantToAskForAgain")

What is the Swift equivalent of respondsToSelector?

As mentioned, in Swift most of the time you can achieve what you need with the ? optional unwrapper operator. This allows you to call a method on an object if and only if the object exists (not nil) and the method is implemented.

In the case where you still need respondsToSelector:, it is still there as part of the NSObject protocol.

If you are calling respondsToSelector: on an Obj-C type in Swift, then it works the same as you would expect. If you are using it on your own Swift class, you will need to ensure your class derives from NSObject.

Here's an example of a Swift class that you can check if it responds to a selector:

class Worker : NSObject
{
    func work() { }
    func eat(food: AnyObject) { }
    func sleep(hours: Int, minutes: Int) { }
}

let worker = Worker()

let canWork = worker.respondsToSelector(Selector("work"))   // true
let canEat = worker.respondsToSelector(Selector("eat:"))    // true
let canSleep = worker.respondsToSelector(Selector("sleep:minutes:"))    // true
let canQuit = worker.respondsToSelector(Selector("quit"))   // false

It is important that you do not leave out the parameter names. In this example, Selector("sleep::") is not the same as Selector("sleep:minutes:").

Starting with PowerShell 3.0 (Windows 8 preinstalled) you can use Invoke-WebRequest:

Invoke-WebRequest http://www.example.com/package.zip -OutFile package.zip

From a batch file they are called:

powershell -Command "(New-Object Net.WebClient).DownloadFile('http://www.example.com/package.zip', 'package.zip')"
powershell -Command "Invoke-WebRequest http://www.example.com/package.zip -OutFile package.zip"

Default session timeout for Apache Tomcat applications

Open $CATALINA_BASE/conf/web.xml and find this

<!-- ==================== Default Session Configuration ================= -->
<!-- You can set the default session timeout (in minutes) for all newly   -->
<!-- created sessions by modifying the value below.                       -->

<session-config>
  <session-timeout>30</session-timeout>
</session-config>

all webapps implicitly inherit from this default web descriptor. You can override session-config as well as other settings defined there in your web.xml.

This is actually from my Tomcat 7 (Windows) but I think 5.5 conf is not very different

Creating a mock HttpServletRequest out of a url string?

You would generally test these sorts of things in an integration test, which actually connects to a service. To do a unit test, you should test the objects used by your servlet's doGet/doPost methods.

In general you don't want to have much code in your servlet methods, you would want to create a bean class to handle operations and pass your own objects to it and not servlet API objects.

AngularJs ReferenceError: $http is not defined

What database does Google use?

Google services have a polyglot persistence architecture. BigTable is leveraged by most of its services like YouTube, Google Search, Google Analytics etc. The search service initially used MapReduce for its indexing infrastructure but later transitioned to BigTable during the Caffeine release.

Google Cloud datastore has over 100 applications in production at Google both facing internal and external users. Applications like Gmail, Picasa, Google Calendar, Android Market & AppEngine use Cloud Datastore & Megastore.

Google Trends use MillWheel for stream processing. Google Ads initially used MySQL later migrated to F1 DB - a custom written distributed relational database. Youtube uses MySQL with Vitess. Google stores exabytes of data across the commodity servers with the help of the Google File System.

Why can't DateTime.ParseExact() parse "9/1/2009" using "M/d/yyyy"

I tried it on XP and it doesn't work if the PC is set to International time yyyy-M-d. Place a breakpoint on the line and before it is processed change the date string to use '-' in place of the '/' and you'll find it works. It makes no difference whether you have the CultureInfo or not. Seems strange to be able specify an expercted format only to have the separator ignored.

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.

How to position absolute inside a div?

  1. First all block level elements are postioned static to the 'document'. The default positioning for all elements is position: static, which means the element is not positioned and occurs where it normally would in the document. Normally you wouldn't specify this unless you needed to override a positioning that had been previously set.
  2. Relative position: If you specify position: relative, then you can use top or bottom, and left or right to move the element relative to where it would normally occur in the document.
  3. When you specify position: absolute, the element is removed from the document and placed exactly where you tell it to go.

So in regard to your question you should position the containing block relative, i.e:

#parent {
  position: relative;
}

And the child element you should position absolute to the parent element like this:

#child {
  position: absolute;
}

Java function for arrays like PHP's join()?

Starting from Java8 it is possible to use String.join().

String.join(", ", new String[]{"Hello", "World", "!"})

Generates:

Hello, World, !

Otherwise, Apache Commons Lang has a StringUtils class which has a join function which will join arrays together to make a String.

For example:

StringUtils.join(new String[] {"Hello", "World", "!"}, ", ")

Generates the following String:

Hello, World, !

Swift add icon/image in UITextField

You can put this function your global file or above your class so you can access it in entire application. After this procedure you can call this function as per your requirement in application.

        func SetLeftSIDEImage(TextField: UITextField, ImageName: String){

                let leftImageView = UIImageView()
                leftImageView.contentMode = .scaleAspectFit

                let leftView = UIView()

                leftView.frame = CGRect(x: 20, y: 0, width: 30, height: 20)
                leftImageView.frame = CGRect(x: 13, y: 0, width: 15, height: 20)
                TextField.leftViewMode = .always
                TextField.leftView = leftView

                let image = UIImage(named: ImageName)?.withRenderingMode(.alwaysTemplate)
                leftImageView.image = image
                leftImageView.tintColor = UIColor(red: 106/255, green: 79/255, blue: 131/255, alpha: 1.0)
                leftImageView.tintColorDidChange()

                leftView.addSubview(leftImageView)

Double Iteration in List Comprehension

Order of iterators may seem counter-intuitive.

Take for example: [str(x) for i in range(3) for x in foo(i)]

Let's decompose it:

def foo(i):
    return i, i + 0.5

[str(x)
    for i in range(3)
        for x in foo(i)
]

# is same as
for i in range(3):
    for x in foo(i):
        yield str(x)

Android - styling seek bar

You can also make it this way :

<SeekBar
    android:id="@+id/redSeekBar"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:progressDrawable="@color/red"
    android:maxHeight="3dip"/>

Hope it will help!

Use cases for the 'setdefault' dict method

In addition to what have been suggested, setdefault might be useful in situations where you don't want to modify a value that has been already set. For example, when you have duplicate numbers and you want to treat them as one group. In this case, if you encounter a repeated duplicate key which has been already set, you won't update the value of that key. You will keep the first encountered value. As if you are iterating/updating the repeated keys once only.

Here's a code example of recording the index for the keys/elements of a sorted list:

nums = [2,2,2,2,2]
d = {}
for idx, num in enumerate(sorted(nums)):
    # This will be updated with the value/index of the of the last repeated key
    # d[num] = idx # Result (sorted_indices): [4, 4, 4, 4, 4]
    # In the case of setdefault, all encountered repeated keys won't update the key.
    # However, only the first encountered key's index will be set 
    d.setdefault(num,idx) # Result (sorted_indices): [0, 0, 0, 0, 0]

sorted_indices = [d[i] for i in nums]

How to install Visual C++ Build tools?

I just stumbled onto this issue accessing some Python libraries: Microsoft Visual C++ 14.0 is required. Get it with "Microsoft Visual C++ Build Tools". The latest link to that is actually here: https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/downloads/#build-tools-for-visual-studio-2019

When you begin the installer, it will have several "options" enabled which will balloon the install size to 5gb. If you have Windows 10, you'll need to leave selected the "Windows 10 SDK" option as mentioned here.

I hope it helps save others time!

How can I change property names when serializing with Json.net?

If you don't have access to the classes to change the properties, or don't want to always use the same rename property, renaming can also be done by creating a custom resolver.

For example, if you have a class called MyCustomObject, that has a property called LongPropertyName, you can use a custom resolver like this…

public class CustomDataContractResolver : DefaultContractResolver
{
  public static readonly CustomDataContractResolver Instance = new CustomDataContractResolver ();

  protected override JsonProperty CreateProperty(MemberInfo member, MemberSerialization memberSerialization)
  {
    var property = base.CreateProperty(member, memberSerialization);
    if (property.DeclaringType == typeof(MyCustomObject))
    {
      if (property.PropertyName.Equals("LongPropertyName", StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase))
      {
        property.PropertyName = "Short";
      }
    }
    return property;
  }
}

Then call for serialization and supply the resolver:

 var result = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(myCustomObjectInstance,
                new JsonSerializerSettings { ContractResolver = CustomDataContractResolver.Instance });

And the result will be shortened to {"Short":"prop value"} instead of {"LongPropertyName":"prop value"}

UIViewController viewDidLoad vs. viewWillAppear: What is the proper division of labor?

Initially used only ViewDidLoad with tableView. On testing with loss of Wifi, by setting device to airplane mode, realized that the table did not refresh with return of Wifi. In fact, there appears to be no way to refresh tableView on the device even by hitting the home button with background mode set to YES in -Info.plist.

My solution:

-(void) viewWillAppear: (BOOL) animated { [self.tableView reloadData];}

How to merge two sorted arrays into a sorted array?

var arr1 = [2,10,20,30,100];
var arr2 = [2,4,5,6,7,8,9];
var j = 0;
var i =0;
var newArray = [];

for(var x=0;x< (arr1.length + arr2.length);x++){
    if(arr1[i] >= arr2[j]){                //check if element arr2 is equal and less than arr1 element
        newArray.push(arr2[j]);
      j++;
    }else if(arr1[i] < arr2[j]){            //check if element arr1 index value  is less than arr2 element
        newArray.push(arr1[i]);
        i++;
    }
    else if(i == arr1.length || j < arr2.length){    // add remaining arr2 element
        newArray.push(arr2[j]);
        j++
    }else{                                                   // add remaining arr1 element

How to delete a selected DataGridViewRow and update a connected database table?

private void btnDelete_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    if (e.ColumIndex == 10)// 10th column the button
    {
        dataGridView1.Rows.Remove(dataGridView1.Rows[e.RowIndex]);
    }                
}

This solution can be delete a row (not selected, clicked row!) via "e" param.

React router nav bar example

Note The accepted is perfectly fine - but wanted to add a version4 example because they are different enough.

Nav.js

  import React from 'react';
  import { Link } from 'react-router';

  export default class Nav extends React.Component {
    render() {    
      return (
        <nav className="Nav">
          <div className="Nav__container">
            <Link to="/" className="Nav__brand">
              <img src="logo.svg" className="Nav__logo" />
            </Link>

            <div className="Nav__right">
              <ul className="Nav__item-wrapper">
                <li className="Nav__item">
                  <Link className="Nav__link" to="/path1">Link 1</Link>
                </li>
                <li className="Nav__item">
                  <Link className="Nav__link" to="/path2">Link 2</Link>
                </li>
                <li className="Nav__item">
                  <Link className="Nav__link" to="/path3">Link 3</Link>
                </li>
              </ul>
            </div>
          </div>
        </nav>
      );
    }
  }

App.js

  import React from 'react';
  import { Link, Switch, Route } from 'react-router';
  import Nav from './nav';
  import Page1 from './page1';
  import Page2 from './page2';
  import Page3 from './page3';

  export default class App extends React.Component {
    render() {    
      return (
        <div className="App">
          <Router>
            <div>
              <Nav />
              <Switch>
                <Route exactly component={Landing} pattern="/" />
                <Route exactly component={Page1} pattern="/path1" />
                <Route exactly component={Page2} pattern="/path2" />
                <Route exactly component={Page3} pattern="/path3" />
                <Route component={Page404} />
              </Switch>
            </div>
          </Router>
        </div>
      );
    }
  }

Alternatively, if you want a more dynamic nav, you can look at the excellent v4 docs: https://reacttraining.com/react-router/web/example/sidebar

Edit

A few people have asked about a page without the Nav, such as a login page. I typically approach it with a wrapper Route component

  import React from 'react';
  import { Link, Switch, Route } from 'react-router';
  import Nav from './nav';
  import Page1 from './page1';
  import Page2 from './page2';
  import Page3 from './page3';

  const NavRoute = ({exact, path, component: Component}) => (
    <Route exact={exact} path={path} render={(props) => (
      <div>
        <Header/>
        <Component {...props}/>
      </div>
    )}/>
  )

  export default class App extends React.Component {
    render() {    
      return (
        <div className="App">
          <Router>
              <Switch>
                <NavRoute exactly component={Landing} pattern="/" />
                <Route exactly component={Login} pattern="/login" />
                <NavRoute exactly component={Page1} pattern="/path1" />
                <NavRoute exactly component={Page2} pattern="/path2" />
                <NavRoute component={Page404} />
              </Switch>
          </Router>
        </div>
      );
    }
  }

Auto height of div

Here is the Latest solution of the problem:

In your CSS file write the following class called .clearfix along with the pseudo selector :after

.clearfix:after {
content: "";
display: table;
clear: both;
}

Then, in your HTML, add the .clearfix class to your parent Div. For example:

<div class="clearfix">
    <div></div>
    <div></div>
</div>

It should work always. You can call the class name as .group instead of .clearfix , as it will make the code more semantic. Note that, it is Not necessary to add the dot or even a space in the value of Content between the double quotation "".

How to wait until an element exists?

Simply add the selector you want. Once the element is found you can have access to in the callback function.

const waitUntilElementExists = (selector, callback) => {
const el = document.querySelector(selector);

if (el){
    return callback(el);
}

setTimeout(() => waitUntilElementExists(selector, callback), 500);
}

waitUntilElementExists('.wait-for-me', (el) => console.log(el));

Update

Below there is an updated version that works with promises. It also "stops" if a specific number of tries is reached.

  function _waitForElement(selector, delay = 50, tries = 250) {
    const element = document.querySelector(selector);

    if (!window[`__${selector}`]) {
      window[`__${selector}`] = 0;
    }

    function _search() {
      return new Promise((resolve) => {
        window[`__${selector}`]++;
        console.log(window[`__${selector}`]);
        setTimeout(resolve, delay);
      });
    }

    if (element === null) {
      if (window[`__${selector}`] >= tries) {
        window[`__${selector}`] = 0;
        return Promise.reject(null);
      }

      return _search().then(() => _waitForElement(selector));
    } else {
      return Promise.resolve(element);
    }
  }

Usage is very simple, to use it with await just make sure you're within an async function:

const start = (async () => {
  const $el = await _waitForElement(`.my-selector`);
  console.log($el);
})();

C# equivalent of C++ map<string,double>

Although System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary matches the tag "hashmap" and will work well in your example, it is not an exact equivalent of C++'s std::map - std::map is an ordered collection.

If ordering is important you should use SortedDictionary.

How to use GNU Make on Windows?

While make itself is available as a standalone executable (gnuwin32.sourceforge.net package make), using it in a proper development environment means using msys2.

Git 2.24 (Q4 2019) illustrates that:

See commit 4668931, commit b35304b, commit ab7d854, commit be5d88e, commit 5d65ad1, commit 030a628, commit 61d1d92, commit e4347c9, commit ed712ef, commit 5b8f9e2, commit 41616ef, commit c097b95 (04 Oct 2019), and commit dbcd970 (30 Sep 2019) by Johannes Schindelin (dscho).
(Merged by Junio C Hamano -- gitster -- in commit 6d5291b, 15 Oct 2019)

test-tool run-command: learn to run (parts of) the testsuite

Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin

Git for Windows jumps through hoops to provide a development environment that allows to build Git and to run its test suite.

To that end, an entire MSYS2 system, including GNU make and GCC is offered as "the Git for Windows SDK".
It does come at a price: an initial download of said SDK weighs in with several hundreds of megabytes, and the unpacked SDK occupies ~2GB of disk space.

A much more native development environment on Windows is Visual Studio. To help contributors use that environment, we already have a Makefile target vcxproj that generates a commit with project files (and other generated files), and Git for Windows' vs/master branch is continuously re-generated using that target.

The idea is to allow building Git in Visual Studio, and to run individual tests using a Portable Git.

Fixing Segmentation faults in C++

  1. Compile your application with -g, then you'll have debug symbols in the binary file.

  2. Use gdb to open the gdb console.

  3. Use file and pass it your application's binary file in the console.

  4. Use run and pass in any arguments your application needs to start.

  5. Do something to cause a Segmentation Fault.

  6. Type bt in the gdb console to get a stack trace of the Segmentation Fault.

GIT: Checkout to a specific folder

Addition to @hasen's answer. You might want to use git ls-files instead of find to list files to checkout like:

git ls-files -z *.txt | git checkout-index --prefix=/path-to/dest/ -f -z --stdin

git ls-files ignores uncommitted files.

How to convert a date string to different format

If you can live with 01 for January instead of 1, then try...

d = datetime.datetime.strptime("2013-1-25", '%Y-%m-%d')
print datetime.date.strftime(d, "%m/%d/%y")

You can check the docs for other formatting directives.

How to animate GIFs in HTML document?

and switch the src with your source. If the alt pops up, try a different url. If it doesn't work, restart your computer or switch your browser.

What's the difference between window.location and document.location in JavaScript?

Interestingly, if you have a frame, image, or form named 'location', then 'document.location' provides a reference to the frame window, image, or form, respectively, instead of the Location object. Apparently, this is because the document.forms, document.images, and window.frames collection name lookup gets priority over the mapping to window.location.

<img name='location' src='location.png'>

if (document.location.tagName == 'IMG') alert('Hello!')

Check if one date is between two dates

Date.parse supports the format mm/dd/yyyy not dd/mm/yyyy. For the latter, either use a library like moment.js or do something as shown below

var dateFrom = "02/05/2013";
var dateTo = "02/09/2013";
var dateCheck = "02/07/2013";

var d1 = dateFrom.split("/");
var d2 = dateTo.split("/");
var c = dateCheck.split("/");

var from = new Date(d1[2], parseInt(d1[1])-1, d1[0]);  // -1 because months are from 0 to 11
var to   = new Date(d2[2], parseInt(d2[1])-1, d2[0]);
var check = new Date(c[2], parseInt(c[1])-1, c[0]);

console.log(check > from && check < to)

Auto increment in MongoDB to store sequence of Unique User ID

I know this is an old question, but I shall post my answer for posterity...

It depends on the system that you are building and the particular business rules in place.

I am building a moderate to large scale CRM in MongoDb, C# (Backend API), and Angular (Frontend web app) and found ObjectId utterly terrible for use in Angular Routing for selecting particular entities. Same with API Controller routing.

The suggestion above worked perfectly for my project.

db.contacts.insert({
 "id":db.contacts.find().Count()+1,
 "name":"John Doe",
 "emails":[
    "[email protected]",
    "[email protected]"
 ],
 "phone":"555111322",
 "status":"Active"
});

The reason it is perfect for my case, but not all cases is that as the above comment states, if you delete 3 records from the collection, you will get collisions.

My business rules state that due to our in house SLA's, we are not allowed to delete correspondence data or clients records for longer than the potential lifespan of the application I'm writing, and therefor, I simply mark records with an enum "Status" which is either "Active" or "Deleted". You can delete something from the UI, and it will say "Contact has been deleted" but all the application has done is change the status of the contact to "Deleted" and when the app calls the respository for a list of contacts, I filter out deleted records before pushing the data to the client app.

Therefore, db.collection.find().count() + 1 is a perfect solution for me...

It won't work for everyone, but if you will not be deleting data, it works fine.

How to add elements of a string array to a string array list?

Arrays.asList() method simply returns List type

char [] arr = { 'c','a','t'};    
ArrayList<Character> chars = new ArrayList<Character>();

To add the array into the list, first convert it to list and then call addAll

List arrList = Arrays.asList(arr);
chars.addAll(arrList);

The following line will cause compiler error

chars.addAll(Arrays.asList(arr));

CSS how to make an element fade in and then fade out?

If you need a single fadeIn/Out without an explicit user action (like a mouseover/mouseout) you may use a CSS3 animation: http://codepen.io/anon/pen/bdEpwW

.elementToFadeInAndOut {

    animation: fadeinout 4s linear 1 forwards;
}



@keyframes fadeinout {
  0% { opacity: 0; }
  50% { opacity: 1; }
  100% { opacity: 0; }
}

By setting animation-fill-mode: forwards the animation will retain its last keyframe

By setting animation-iteration-count: 1 the animation will run just once (change this value if you need to repeat the effect more than once)

JavaScript seconds to time string with format hh:mm:ss

I'd upvote artem's answer, but I am a new poster. I did expand on his solution, though not what the OP asked for as follows

    t=(new Date()).toString().split(" ");

To get

04Oct 16:31:28 PDT

This works for me...

But if you are starting with just a time quantity, I use two functions; one to format and pad, and one to calculate:

function sec2hms(timect){

  if(timect=== undefined||timect==0||timect === null){return ''};
  //timect is seconds, NOT milliseconds
  var se=timect % 60; //the remainder after div by 60
  timect = Math.floor(timect/60);
  var mi=timect % 60; //the remainder after div by 60
  timect = Math.floor(timect/60);
  var hr = timect % 24; //the remainder after div by 24
  var dy = Math.floor(timect/24);
  return padify (se, mi, hr, dy);
}

function padify (se, mi, hr, dy){
  hr = hr<10?"0"+hr:hr;
  mi = mi<10?"0"+mi:mi;
  se = se<10?"0"+se:se;
  dy = dy>0?dy+"d ":"";
  return dy+hr+":"+mi+":"+se;
}

This certificate has an invalid issuer Apple Push Services

As described in the Apple Worldwide Developer Relations Intermediate Certificate Expiration:


The previous Apple Worldwide Developer Relations Certification Intermediate Certificate expired on February 14, 2016 and the renewed certificate must now be used when signing Apple Wallet Passes, push packages for Safari Push Notifications, Safari Extensions, and submissions to the App Store, Mac App Store, and App Store for Apple TV.

All developers should download and install the renewed certificate on their development systems and servers. All apps will remain available on the App Store for iOS, Mac, and Apple TV.


The new valid certificate will look like the following:

Apple Worldwide Developer Relations Certification Authority

It will display (this certificate is valid) with a green mark.

So, go to your Key Chain Access. Just delete the old certificate and replace it with the new one (renewed certificate) as Apple described in the document. Mainly the problem is only with the Apple push notification service and extensions as described in the Apple document.

You can also check the listing of certificates in https://www.apple.com/certificateauthority/

Certificate Revocation List:

Certificate Revocation List

Now this updated certificate will expire on 2023-02-08.


If you could not see the old certificate then go to the System Keychains and from edit menu and select the option Show Expired Certificates.

Show Expired Certificates

Now you can see the following certificate that you have to delete:

Add a prefix string to beginning of each line

If you need to prepend a text at the beginning of each line that has a certain string, try following. In the following example, I am adding # at the beginning of each line that has the word "rock" in it.

sed -i -e 's/^.*rock.*/#&/' file_name

Copy row but with new id

depending on how many columns there are, you could just name the columns, sans the ID, and manually add an ID or, if it's in your table, a secondary ID (sid):

insert into PROG(date, level, Percent, sid) select date, level, Percent, 55 from PROG where sid = 31 Here, if sid 31 has more than one resultant row, all of them will be copied over to sid 55 and your auto iDs will still get auto-generated. for ID only: insert into PROG(date, level, Percent, ID) select date, level, Percent, 55 from PROG where ID = 31 where 55 is the next available ID in the table and ID 31 is the one you want to copy.

Use CSS to make a span not clickable

Actually, you can achieve this via CSS. There's an almost unknown css rule named pointer-events. The a element will still be clickable but your description span won't.

a span.description {
    pointer-events: none;
}

there are other values like: all, stroke, painted, etc.

UPDATE: As of 2016, all browsers now accept it: http://caniuse.com/#search=pointer-events

Download a file by jQuery.Ajax

How to DOWNLOAD a file after receiving it by AJAX

It’s convenient when the file is created for a long time and you need to show PRELOADER

Example when submitting a web form:

<script>
$(function () {
    $('form').submit(function () {
        $('#loader').show();
        $.ajax({
            url: $(this).attr('action'),
            data: $(this).serialize(),
            dataType: 'binary',
            xhrFields: {
                'responseType': 'blob'
            },
            success: function(data, status, xhr) {
                $('#loader').hide();
                // if(data.type.indexOf('text/html') != -1){//If instead of a file you get an error page
                //     var reader = new FileReader();
                //     reader.readAsText(data);
                //     reader.onload = function() {alert(reader.result);};
                //     return;
                // }
                var link = document.createElement('a'),
                    filename = 'file.xlsx';
                // if(xhr.getResponseHeader('Content-Disposition')){//filename 
                //     filename = xhr.getResponseHeader('Content-Disposition');
                //     filename=filename.match(/filename="(.*?)"/)[1];
                //     filename=decodeURIComponent(escape(filename));
                // }
                link.href = URL.createObjectURL(data);
                link.download = filename;
                link.click();
            }
        });
        return false;
    });
});
</script>

Optional functional is commented out to simplify the example.

No need to create temporary files on the server.

On jQuery v2.2.4 OK. There will be an error on the old version:

Uncaught DOMException: Failed to read the 'responseText' property from 'XMLHttpRequest': The value is only accessible if the object's 'responseType' is '' or 'text' (was 'blob').

What key in windows registry disables IE connection parameter "Automatically Detect Settings"?

I found the solution : it's the 9th byte of this key :

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\Connections] "DefaultConnectionSettings"=hex:3c,00,00,00,1f,00,00,00,05,00,00,00,00,00,00, 00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,01,00,00,00,1f,00,00,00,68,74,74,70,3a,2f,2f,31, 34,34,2e,31,33,31,2e,32,32,32,2e,31,36,37,2f,77,70,61,64,2e,64,61,74,90,0e, 1e,66,d3,88,c5,01,01,00,00,00,8d,a8,4e,9e,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00

It's a bitfield:

  • 0x1: (Always 1)
  • 0x2: Proxy enabled
  • 0x4: "Use automatic configuration script" checked
  • 0x8: "Automatically detect settings" checked

Mask 0x8 to turn it off, i.e., subtract 8 if it's higher than 8.

Thanks to Jamie on google groups.

How to get a list of MySQL views?

The error your seeing is probably due to a non-MySQL created directory in MySQL's data directory. MySQL maps the database structure pretty directly onto the file system, databases are mapped to directories and tables are files in those directories.

The name of the non-working database looks suspiciously like someone has copied the mysql database directory to a backup at some point and left it in MySQL's data directory. This isn't a problem as long as you don't try and use the database for anything. Unfortunately the information schema scans all of the databases it finds and finds that this one isn't a real database and gets upset.

The solution is to find the mysql.bak directory on the hard disk and move it well away from MySQL.

How to transition to a new view controller with code only using Swift

For those using a second view controller with a storyboard in a .xib file, you will want to use the name of the .xib file in your constructor (without the.xib suffix).

let settings_dialog:SettingsViewController = SettingsViewController(nibName: "SettingsViewController", bundle: nil)
self.presentViewController(settings_dialog, animated: true, completion: nil)

Get list of certificates from the certificate store in C#

Try this:

//using System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates;
public static X509Certificate2 selectCert(StoreName store, StoreLocation location, string windowTitle, string windowMsg)
{

    X509Certificate2 certSelected = null;
    X509Store x509Store = new X509Store(store, location);
    x509Store.Open(OpenFlags.ReadOnly);

    X509Certificate2Collection col = x509Store.Certificates;
    X509Certificate2Collection sel = X509Certificate2UI.SelectFromCollection(col, windowTitle, windowMsg, X509SelectionFlag.SingleSelection);

    if (sel.Count > 0)
    {
        X509Certificate2Enumerator en = sel.GetEnumerator();
        en.MoveNext();
        certSelected = en.Current;
    }

    x509Store.Close();

    return certSelected;
}

cmake and libpthread

target_compile_options solution above is wrong, it won't link the library.

Use:

SET(CMAKE_C_FLAGS_RELEASE "${CMAKE_C_FLAGS_RELEASE} -pthread")

OR

target_link_libraries(XXX PUBLIC pthread)

OR

set_target_properties(XXX PROPERTIES LINK_LIBRARIES -pthread)

Missing include "bits/c++config.h" when cross compiling 64 bit program on 32 bit in Ubuntu

Basically It is used in HeapOverflows or other reversing type Problems i.e. If you want to change a 64 bit ELF to 32 bit ELF and it is showing error while converting.

You can simply run the commands

apt-get install gcc-multilib g++-multilib

which will update your libraries Packages upgraded:

The following additional packages will be installed: g++-8-multilib gcc-8-multilib lib32asan5 lib32atomic1 lib32gcc-8-dev lib32gomp1 lib32itm1 lib32mpx2 lib32quadmath0 lib32stdc++-8-dev lib32ubsan1 libc-dev-bin libc6 libc6-dbg libc6-dev libc6-dev-i386 libc6-dev-x32 libc6-i386 libc6-x32 libx32asan5 libx32atomic1 libx32gcc-8-dev libx32gcc1 libx32gomp1 libx32itm1 libx32quadmath0 libx32stdc++-8-dev libx32stdc++6 libx32ubsan1 Suggested packages: lib32stdc++6-8-dbg libx32stdc++6-8-dbg glibc-doc The following NEW packages will be installed: g++-8-multilib g++-multilib gcc-8-multilib gcc-multilib lib32asan5 lib32atomic1 lib32gcc-8-dev lib32gomp1 lib32itm1 lib32mpx2 lib32quadmath0 lib32stdc++-8-dev lib32ubsan1 libc6-dev-i386 libc6-dev-x32 libc6-x32 libx32asan5 libx32atomic1 libx32gcc-8-dev libx32gcc1 libx32gomp1 libx32itm1 libx32quadmath0 libx32stdc++-8-dev libx32stdc++6 libx32ubsan1

How to round up value C# to the nearest integer?

It is also possible to round negative integers

// performing d = c * 3/4 where d can be pos or neg
d = ((c * a) + ((c>0? (b>>1):-(b>>1)))) / b;
// explanation:
// 1.) multiply:          c * a  
// 2.) if c is negative:  (c>0? subtract half of the dividend 
//                              (b>>1) is bit shift right = (b/2)
//     if c is positive:  else  add half of the dividend 
// 3.) do the division
// on a C51/52 (8bit embedded) or similar like ATmega the below code may execute in approx 12cpu cycles (not tested)

Extended from a tip somewhere else in here. Sorry, missed from where.

/* Example test: integer rounding example including negative*/
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>

int main () {
   //rounding negative int
   // doing something like d = c * 3/4
   int a=3;
   int b=4;
   int c=-5;
   int d;
   int s=c;
   int e=c+10;


   for(int f=s; f<=e; f++) {
      printf("%d\t",f);

      double cd=f, ad=a, bd=b , dd;

      // d = c * 3/4  with double
      dd = cd * ad / bd;

      printf("%.2f\t",dd);
      printf("%.1f\t",dd);        
      printf("%.0f\t",dd);

      // try again with typecast have used that a lot in Borland C++ 35 years ago....... maybe evolution has overtaken it ;) ***
      // doing div before mul on purpose
      dd =(double)c * ((double)a / (double)b);
      printf("%.2f\t",dd);

      c=f;
      // d = c * 3/4  with integer rounding
      d = ((c * a) + ((c>0? (b>>1):-(b>>1)))) / b;
      printf("%d\t",d);
      puts("");
  }
 return 0;
}
