File Upload In Angular?

From the answers above I build this with Angular 5.x

Just call uploadFile(url, file).subscribe() to trigger an upload

import { Injectable } from '@angular/core';
import {HttpClient, HttpParams, HttpRequest, HttpEvent} from '@angular/common/http';
import {Observable} from "rxjs";

@Injectable()
export class UploadService {

  constructor(private http: HttpClient) { }

  // file from event.target.files[0]
  uploadFile(url: string, file: File): Observable<HttpEvent<any>> {

    let formData = new FormData();
    formData.append('upload', file);

    let params = new HttpParams();

    const options = {
      params: params,
      reportProgress: true,
    };

    const req = new HttpRequest('POST', url, formData, options);
    return this.http.request(req);
  }
}

Use it like this in your component

  // At the drag drop area
  // (drop)="onDropFile($event)"
  onDropFile(event: DragEvent) {
    event.preventDefault();
    this.uploadFile(event.dataTransfer.files);
  }

  // At the drag drop area
  // (dragover)="onDragOverFile($event)"
  onDragOverFile(event) {
    event.stopPropagation();
    event.preventDefault();
  }

  // At the file input element
  // (change)="selectFile($event)"
  selectFile(event) {
    this.uploadFile(event.target.files);
  }

  uploadFile(files: FileList) {
    if (files.length == 0) {
      console.log("No file selected!");
      return

    }
    let file: File = files[0];

    this.upload.uploadFile(this.appCfg.baseUrl + "/api/flash/upload", file)
      .subscribe(
        event => {
          if (event.type == HttpEventType.UploadProgress) {
            const percentDone = Math.round(100 * event.loaded / event.total);
            console.log(`File is ${percentDone}% loaded.`);
          } else if (event instanceof HttpResponse) {
            console.log('File is completely loaded!');
          }
        },
        (err) => {
          console.log("Upload Error:", err);
        }, () => {
          console.log("Upload done");
        }
      )
  }

File uploading with Express 4.0: req.files undefined

1) Make sure that your file is really sent from the client side. For example you can check it in Chrome Console: screenshot

2) Here is the basic example of NodeJS backend:

const express = require('express');
const fileUpload = require('express-fileupload');
const app = express();

app.use(fileUpload()); // Don't forget this line!

app.post('/upload', function(req, res) {
   console.log(req.files);
   res.send('UPLOADED!!!');
});

Node.js: what is ENOSPC error and how to solve?

On Linux, this is likely to be a limit on the number of file watches.

The development server uses inotify to implement hot-reloading. The inotify API allows the development server to watch files and be notified when they change.

The default inotify file watch limit varies from distribution to distribution (8192 on Fedora). The needs of the development server often exceeds this limit.

The best approach is to try increasing the file watch limit temporarily, then making that a permanent configuration change if you're happy with it. Note, though, that this changes your entire system's configuration, not just node.

To view your current limit:

sysctl fs.inotify.max_user_watches

To temporarily set a new limit:

# this limit will revert after reset
sudo sysctl fs.inotify.max_user_watches=524288
sudo sysctl -p
# now restart the server and see if it works

To set a permanent limit:

echo fs.inotify.max_user_watches=524288 | sudo tee -a /etc/sysctl.conf
sudo sysctl -p

How to make a simple image upload using Javascript/HTML

Here's a simple example with no jQuery. Use URL.createObjectURL, which

creates a DOMString containing a URL representing the object given in the parameter

Then, you can simply set the src of the image to that url:

_x000D_
_x000D_
window.addEventListener('load', function() {
  document.querySelector('input[type="file"]').addEventListener('change', function() {
      if (this.files && this.files[0]) {
          var img = document.querySelector('img');
          img.onload = () => {
              URL.revokeObjectURL(img.src);  // no longer needed, free memory
          }

          img.src = URL.createObjectURL(this.files[0]); // set src to blob url
      }
  });
});
_x000D_
<input type='file' />
<br><img id="myImg" src="#">
_x000D_
_x000D_
_x000D_

Using Spring MVC Test to unit test multipart POST request

The method MockMvcRequestBuilders.fileUpload is deprecated use MockMvcRequestBuilders.multipart instead.

This is an example:

import static org.hamcrest.CoreMatchers.containsString;
import static org.springframework.test.web.servlet.request.MockMvcRequestBuilders.post;
import static org.springframework.test.web.servlet.result.MockMvcResultMatchers.content;
import static org.springframework.test.web.servlet.result.MockMvcResultMatchers.status;

@RunWith(SpringRunner.class)
@WebMvcTest(NewController.class)
public class NewControllerTest {

    private MockMvc mockMvc;

    @Autowired
    WebApplicationContext wContext;

    @MockBean
    private NewController newController;

    @Before
    public void setup() {
        this.mockMvc = MockMvcBuilders.webAppContextSetup(wContext)
                   .alwaysDo(MockMvcResultHandlers.print())
                   .build();
    }

   @Test
    public void test() throws Exception {
       // Mock Request
        MockMultipartFile jsonFile = new MockMultipartFile("test.json", "", "application/json", "{\"key1\": \"value1\"}".getBytes());

        // Mock Response
        NewControllerResponseDto response = new NewControllerDto();
        Mockito.when(newController.postV1(Mockito.any(Integer.class), Mockito.any(MultipartFile.class))).thenReturn(response);

        mockMvc.perform(MockMvcRequestBuilders.multipart("/fileUpload")
                .file("file", jsonFile.getBytes())
                .characterEncoding("UTF-8"))
        .andExpect(status().isOk());

    }

}

Fatal error: Namespace declaration statement has to be the very first statement in the script in

I just discovered an easy way to raise this exception; let your text editor default to saving as UTF-8. Unless you can force it to omit the Byte Order Mark, which may not be easy or even possible, depending on your editor, you'll have a "character" in front of the opening <, which will be hidden from view.

Fortunately, when that possibility crossed my mind, I switched my editor (UltraEdit) into hexadecimal mode, which hides nothing, not even Byte Order Marks. Having written code that processes Byte Order Marks for many years, I recognized it instantly.

Save file as ANSI/ASCII, and accept the default 1252 ANSI Latin-1 code page, problem solved!

JQuery Validate input file type

One the elements are added, use the rules method to add the rules

//bug fixed thanks to @Sparky
$('input[name^="fileupload"]').each(function () {
    $(this).rules('add', {
        required: true,
        accept: "image/jpeg, image/pjpeg"
    })
})

Demo: Fiddle


Update

var filenumber = 1;
$("#AddFile").click(function () { //User clicks button #AddFile
    var $li = $('<li><input type="file" name="FileUpload' + filenumber + '" id="FileUpload' + filenumber + '" required=""/> <a href="#" class="RemoveFileUpload">Remove</a></li>').prependTo("#FileUploader");

    $('#FileUpload' + filenumber).rules('add', {
        required: true,
        accept: "image/jpeg, image/pjpeg"
    })

    filenumber++;
    return false;
});

YouTube API to fetch all videos on a channel

From https://stackoverflow.com/a/65440501/2585501:

This method is especially useful if a) the channel has more than 50 videos or if b) desire youtube video ids formatted in a flat txt list:

  1. Obtain a Youtube API v3 key (see https://stackoverflow.com/a/65440324/2585501)
  2. Obtain the Youtube Channel ID of the channel (see https://stackoverflow.com/a/16326307/2585501)
  3. Obtain the Uploads Playlist ID of the channel: https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/channels?id={channel Id}&key={API key}&part=contentDetails (based on https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RjUlmco7v2M)
  4. Install youtube-dl (e.g. pip3 install --upgrade youtube-dl or sudo apt-get install youtube-dl)
  5. Download the Uploads Playlist using youtube-dl: youtube-dl -j --flat-playlist "https://<yourYoutubePlaylist>" | jq -r '.id' | sed 's_^_https://youtu.be/_' > videoList.txt (see https://superuser.com/questions/1341684/youtube-dl-how-download-only-the-playlist-not-the-files-therein)

Can someone explain how to implement the jQuery File Upload plugin?

Hi try bellow link it is very easy. I've been stuck for long time and it solve my issue in few minutes. http://simpleupload.michaelcbrook.com/#examples

How to make <input type="file"/> accept only these types?

The value of the accept attribute is, as per HTML5 LC, a comma-separated list of items, each of which is a specific media type like image/gif, or a notation like image/* that refers to all image types, or a filename extension like .gif. IE 10+ and Chrome support all of these, whereas Firefox does not support the extensions. Thus, the safest way is to use media types and notations like image/*, in this case

<input type="file" name="foo" accept=
"application/msword, application/vnd.ms-excel, application/vnd.ms-powerpoint,
text/plain, application/pdf, image/*">

if I understand the intents correctly. Beware that browsers might not recognize the media type names exactly as specified in the authoritative registry, so some testing is needed.

ORA-00984: column not allowed here

Replace double quotes with single ones:

INSERT

        (id,severity,category,logdate,appendername,message,extrainfo)
VALUES  (
       'dee205e29ec34',
       'FATAL',
       'facade.uploader.model',

       'LOGDB',
       NULL,
       NULL
       )

In SQL, double quotes are used to mark identifiers, not string constants.

how to get files from <input type='file' .../> (Indirect) with javascript

Based on Ray Nicholus's answer :

inputElement.onchange = function(event) {
   var fileList = inputElement.files;
   //TODO do something with fileList.  
}

using this will also work :

inputElement.onchange = function(event) {
   var fileList = event.target.files;
   //TODO do something with fileList.  
}

Jquery and HTML FormData returns "Uncaught TypeError: Illegal invocation"

My experience:

  var text = $('#myInputField');  
  var myObj = {title: 'Some title', content: text};  
  $.post(myUrl, myObj, callback);

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

Using curl to upload POST data with files

The issue that lead me here turned out to be a basic user error - I wasn't including the @ sign in the path of the file and so curl was posting the path/name of the file rather than the contents. The Content-Length value was therefore 8 rather than the 479 I expected to see given the legnth of my test file.

The Content-Length header will be automatically calculated when curl reads and posts the file.

curl -i -H "Content-Type: application/xml" --data "@test.xml" -v -X POST https://<url>/<uri/

... < Content-Length: 479 ...

Posting this here to assist other newbies in future.

Setting PHP tmp dir - PHP upload not working

The problem described here was solved by me quite a long time ago but I don't really remember what was the main reason that uploads weren't working. There were multiple things that needed fixing so the upload could work. I have created checklist that might help others having similar problems and I will edit it to make it as helpful as possible. As I said before on chat, I was working on embedded system, so some points may be skipped on non-embedded systems.

  • Check upload_tmp_dir in php.ini. This is directory where PHP stores temporary files while uploading.

  • Check open_basedir in php.ini. If defined it limits PHP read/write rights to specified path and its subdirectories. Ensure that upload_tmp_dir is inside this path.

  • Check post_max_size in php.ini. If you want to upload 20 Mbyte files, try something a little bigger, like post_max_size = 21M. This defines largest size of POST message which you are probably using during upload.

  • Check upload_max_filesize in php.ini. This specifies biggest file that can be uploaded.

  • Check memory_limit in php.ini. That's the maximum amount of memory a script may consume. It's quite obvious that it can't be lower than upload size (to be honest I'm not quite sure about it-PHP is probably buffering while copying temporary files).

  • Ensure that you're checking the right php.ini file that is one used by PHP on your webserver. The best solution is to execute script with directive described here http://php.net/manual/en/function.php-ini-loaded-file.php (php_ini_loaded_file function)

  • Check what user php runs as (See here how to do it: How to check what user php is running as? ). I have worked on different distros and servers. Sometimes it is apache, but sometimes it can be root. Anyway, check that this user has rights for reading and writing in the temporary directory and directory that you're uploading into. Check all directories in the path in case you're uploading into subdirectory (for example /dir1/dir2/-check both dir1 and dir2.

  • On embedded platforms you sometimes need to restrict writing to root filesystem because it is stored on flash card and this helps to extend life of this card. If you are using scripts to enable/disable file writes, ensure that you enable writing before uploading.

  • I had serious problems with PHP >5.4 upload monitoring based on sessions (as described here http://phpmaster.com/tracking-upload-progress-with-php-and-javascript/ ) on some platforms. Try something simple at first (like here: http://www.dzone.com/snippets/very-simple-php-file-upload ). If it works, you can try more sophisticated mechanisms.

  • If you make any changes in php.ini remember to restart server so the configuration will be reloaded.

Why is json_encode adding backslashes?

I just came across this issue in some of my scripts too, and it seemed to be happening because I was applying json_encode to an array wrapped inside another array which was also json encoded. It's easy to do if you have multiple foreach loops in a script that creates the data. Always apply json_encode at the end.

Here is what was happening. If you do:

$data[] = json_encode(['test' => 'one', 'test' => '2']);
$data[] = json_encode(['test' => 'two', 'test' => 'four']);
echo json_encode($data);

The result is:

["{\"test\":\"2\"}","{\"test\":\"four\"}"]

So, what you actually need to do is:

$data[] = ['test' => 'one', 'test' => '2'];
$data[] = ['test' => 'two', 'test' => 'four'];
echo json_encode($data);

And this will return

[{"test":"2"},{"test":"four"}]

If a folder does not exist, create it

Create a new folder, given a parent folder's path:

        string pathToNewFolder = System.IO.Path.Combine(parentFolderPath, "NewSubFolder");
        DirectoryInfo directory = Directory.CreateDirectory(pathToNewFolder); 
       // Will create if does not already exist (otherwise will ignore)
  • path to new folder given
  • directory information variable so you can continue to manipulate it as you please.

Clear text area

This method removes not only child (and other descendant) elements, but also any text within the set of matched elements. This is because, according to the DOM specification, any string of text within an element is considered a child node of that element.

$('textarea').empty()

Android file chooser

EDIT (02 Jan 2012):

I created a small open source Android Library Project that streamlines this process, while also providing a built-in file explorer (in case the user does not have one present). It's extremely simple to use, requiring only a few lines of code.

You can find it at GitHub: aFileChooser.


ORIGINAL

If you want the user to be able to choose any file in the system, you will need to include your own file manager, or advise the user to download one. I believe the best you can do is look for "openable" content in an Intent.createChooser() like this:

private static final int FILE_SELECT_CODE = 0;

private void showFileChooser() {
    Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT); 
    intent.setType("*/*"); 
    intent.addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_OPENABLE);

    try {
        startActivityForResult(
                Intent.createChooser(intent, "Select a File to Upload"),
                FILE_SELECT_CODE);
    } catch (android.content.ActivityNotFoundException ex) {
        // Potentially direct the user to the Market with a Dialog
        Toast.makeText(this, "Please install a File Manager.", 
                Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
    }
}

You would then listen for the selected file's Uri in onActivityResult() like so:

@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
    switch (requestCode) {
        case FILE_SELECT_CODE:
        if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
            // Get the Uri of the selected file 
            Uri uri = data.getData();
            Log.d(TAG, "File Uri: " + uri.toString());
            // Get the path
            String path = FileUtils.getPath(this, uri);
            Log.d(TAG, "File Path: " + path);
            // Get the file instance
            // File file = new File(path);
            // Initiate the upload
        }
        break;
    }
    super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
}

The getPath() method in my FileUtils.java is:

public static String getPath(Context context, Uri uri) throws URISyntaxException {
    if ("content".equalsIgnoreCase(uri.getScheme())) {
        String[] projection = { "_data" };
        Cursor cursor = null;

        try {
            cursor = context.getContentResolver().query(uri, projection, null, null, null);
            int column_index = cursor.getColumnIndexOrThrow("_data");
            if (cursor.moveToFirst()) {
                return cursor.getString(column_index);
            }
        } catch (Exception e) {
            // Eat it
        }
    }
    else if ("file".equalsIgnoreCase(uri.getScheme())) {
        return uri.getPath();
    }

    return null;
} 

Convert Data URI to File then append to FormData

I had exactly the same problem as Ravinder Payal, and I've found the answer. Try this:

var dataURL = canvas.toDataURL("image/jpeg");

var name = "image.jpg";
var parseFile = new Parse.File(name, {base64: dataURL.substring(23)});

python exception message capturing

for the future strugglers, in python 3.8.2(and maybe a few versions before that), the syntax is

except Attribute as e:
    print(e)

Only variables should be passed by reference

Try this:

$parts = explode('.', $file_name);
$file_extension = end($parts);

The reason is that the argument for end is passed by reference, since end modifies the array by advancing its internal pointer to the final element. If you're not passing a variable in, there's nothing for a reference to point to.

See end in the PHP manual for more info.

jQuery change method on input type="file"

As of jQuery 1.7, the .live() method is deprecated. Use .on() to attach event handlers. Users of older versions of jQuery should use .delegate() in preference to .live(). Refer: http://api.jquery.com/on/

$('#imageFile').on("change", function(){ uploadFile(); });

How can you integrate a custom file browser/uploader with CKEditor?

Start by registering your custom browser/uploader when you instantiate CKEditor.

<script type="text/javascript">
CKEDITOR.replace('content', {
    filebrowserUploadUrl: "Upload File Url",//http://localhost/phpwork/test/ckFileUpload.php
    filebrowserWindowWidth  : 800,
    filebrowserWindowHeight : 500
});
</script>

Code for upload file(ckFileUpload.php) & put the upload file on root dir of your project.

How to call a Web Service Method?

James' answer is correct, of course, but I should remind you that the whole ASMX thing is, if not obsolete, at least not the current method. I strongly suggest that you look into WCF, if only to avoid learning things you will need to forget.

Dynamically set value of a file input

I ended up doing something like this for AngularJS in case someone stumbles across this question:

const imageElem = angular.element('#awardImg');

if (imageElem[0].files[0])
    vm.award.imageElem = imageElem;
    vm.award.image = imageElem[0].files[0];

And then:

if (vm.award.imageElem)
    $('#awardImg').replaceWith(vm.award.imageElem);
    delete vm.award.imageElem;

Upload Progress Bar in PHP

A php/ajax progress bar can be done. (Checkout the Html_Ajax library in pear). However this requires installing a custom module into php.

Other methods require using an iframe, through which php looks to see how much of the file has been uploaded. However this hidden iframe, may be blocked by some browsers addons because hidden iframes are often used to send malicious data to a users computer.

Your best bet is to use some form of flash progress bar if you do not have control over your server.

Filter Extensions in HTML form upload

I wouldnt use this attribute as most browsers ignore it as CMS points out.

By all means use client side validation but only in conjunction with server side. Any client side validation can be got round.

Slightly off topic but some people check the content type to validate the uploaded file. You need to be careful about this as an attacker can easily change it and upload a php file for example. See the example at: http://www.scanit.be/uploads/php-file-upload.pdf

php function mail() isn't working

I think you are not configured properly,

if you are using XAMPP then you can easily send mail from localhost.

for example you can configure C:\xampp\php\php.ini and c:\xampp\sendmail\sendmail.ini for gmail to send mail.

in C:\xampp\php\php.ini find extension=php_openssl.dll and remove the semicolon from the beginning of that line to make SSL working for gmail for localhost.

in php.ini file find [mail function] and change

SMTP=smtp.gmail.com
smtp_port=587
sendmail_from = [email protected]
sendmail_path = "C:\xampp\sendmail\sendmail.exe -t"

(use the above send mail path only and it will work)

Now Open C:\xampp\sendmail\sendmail.ini. Replace all the existing code in sendmail.ini with following code

[sendmail]

smtp_server=smtp.gmail.com
smtp_port=587
error_logfile=error.log
debug_logfile=debug.log
[email protected]
auth_password=my-gmail-password
[email protected]

Now you have done!! create php file with mail function and send mail from localhost.

Update

First, make sure you PHP installation has SSL support (look for an "openssl" section in the output from phpinfo()).

You can set the following settings in your PHP.ini:

ini_set("SMTP","ssl://smtp.gmail.com");
ini_set("smtp_port","465");

ngModel cannot be used to register form controls with a parent formGroup directive

It looks like you're using ngModel on the same form field as formControlName. Support for using the ngModel input property and ngModelChange event with reactive form directives has been deprecated in Angular v6 and will be removed in Angular v7

C# difference between == and Equals()

The == token in C# is used for two different equality-check operators. When the compiler encounters that token, it will check whether either of the types being compared has implemented an equality-operator overload for either the specific combination types being compared(*), or for a combination of types to which both types can be converted. If the compiler finds such an overload it will use it. Otherwise, if the two types are both reference types and they are not unrelated classes (either may be an interface, or they may be related classes), the compiler will regard == as a reference-comparison operator. If neither condition applies, compilation will fail.

Note that some other languages use separate tokens for the two equality-check operators. In VB.NET, for example, the = token is used within expressions solely for the overloadable equality-check operator, and Is is used as a reference-test or null-test operator. An to use = on a type which does not override the equality-check operator will fail, as will attempting to use Is for any purpose other than testing reference equality or nullity.

(*)Types generally only overload equality for comparison with themselves, but it may be useful for types to overload the equality operator for comparison with other particular types; for example, int could have (and IMHO should have but didn't) defined an equality operators for comparison with float, so that 16777217 would not report itself equal to 16777216f. As it is, since no such operator is defined, C# will promote the int to float, rounding it to 16777216f before the equality-check operator sees it; that operator then sees two equal floating-point numbers and reports them as equal, unaware of the rounding that took place.

What is the difference between task and thread?

A Task can be seen as a convenient and easy way to execute something asynchronously and in parallel.

Normally a Task is all you need, I cannot remember if I have ever used a thread for something else than experimentation.

You can accomplish the same with a thread (with lots of effort) as you can with a task.

Thread

int result = 0;
Thread thread = new System.Threading.Thread(() => { 
    result = 1; 
});
thread.Start();
thread.Join();
Console.WriteLine(result); //is 1

Task

int result = await Task.Run(() => {
    return 1; 
});
Console.WriteLine(result); //is 1

A task will by default use the Threadpool, which saves resources as creating threads can be expensive. You can see a Task as a higher level abstraction upon threads.

As this article points out, task provides following powerful features over thread.

  • Tasks are tuned for leveraging multicores processors.

  • If system has multiple tasks then it make use of the CLR thread pool internally, and so do not have the overhead associated with creating a dedicated thread using the Thread. Also reduce the context switching time among multiple threads.

  • Task can return a result.There is no direct mechanism to return the result from thread.
  • Wait on a set of tasks, without a signaling construct.

  • We can chain tasks together to execute one after the other.

  • Establish a parent/child relationship when one task is started from another task.

  • Child task exception can propagate to parent task.

  • Task support cancellation through the use of cancellation tokens.

  • Asynchronous implementation is easy in task, using’ async’ and ‘await’ keywords.

php timeout - set_time_limit(0); - don't work

I usually use set_time_limit(30) within the main loop (so each loop iteration is limited to 30 seconds rather than the whole script).

I do this in multiple database update scripts, which routinely take several minutes to complete but less than a second for each iteration - keeping the 30 second limit means the script won't get stuck in an infinite loop if I am stupid enough to create one.

I must admit that my choice of 30 seconds for the limit is somewhat arbitrary - my scripts could actually get away with 2 seconds instead, but I feel more comfortable with 30 seconds given the actual application - of course you could use whatever value you feel is suitable.

Hope this helps!

In SQL Server, how do I generate a CREATE TABLE statement for a given table?

If you are using management studio and have the query analyzer window open you can drag the table name to the query analyzer window and ... bingo! you get the table script. I've not tried this in SQL2008

Shortcut for changing font size

Get current batchfile directory

System read-only variable %CD% keeps the path of the caller of the batch, not the batch file location.

You can get the name of the batch script itself as typed by the user with %0 (e.g. scripts\mybatch.bat). Parameter extensions can be applied to this so %~dp0 will return the Drive and Path to the batch script (e.g. W:\scripts\) and %~f0 will return the full pathname (e.g. W:\scripts\mybatch.cmd).

You can refer to other files in the same folder as the batch script by using this syntax:

CALL %0\..\SecondBatch.cmd

This can even be used in a subroutine, Echo %0 will give the call label but, echo "%~nx0" will give you the filename of the batch script.

When the %0 variable is expanded, the result is enclosed in quotation marks.

More on batch parameters.

How to redirect to previous page in Ruby On Rails?

request.referer is set by Rack and is set as follows:

def referer
  @env['HTTP_REFERER'] || '/'
end

Just do a redirect_to request.referer and it will always redirect to the true referring page, or the root_path ('/'). This is essential when passing tests that fail in cases of direct-nav to a particular page in which the controller throws a redirect_to :back

"Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement opencv-python"

Another problem can be that the python version you are using is not yet supported by opencv-python.

E.g. as of right now there is no opencv-python for python 3.8. You would need to downgrade your python to 3.7.5 for now.

Paging with Oracle

In my project I used Oracle 12c and java. The paging code looks like this:

 public public List<Map<String, Object>> getAllProductOfferWithPagination(int pageNo, int pageElementSize, Long productOfferId, String productOfferName) {
    try {

        if(pageNo==1){
            //do nothing
        } else{
            pageNo=(pageNo-1)*pageElementSize+1;
        }
        System.out.println("algo pageNo: " + pageNo +"  pageElementSize: "+ pageElementSize+"  productOfferId: "+ productOfferId+"  productOfferName: "+ productOfferName);

        String sql = "SELECT * FROM ( SELECT * FROM product_offer po WHERE po.deleted=0 AND (po.product_offer_id=? OR po.product_offer_name LIKE ? )" +
             " ORDER BY po.PRODUCT_OFFER_ID asc) foo OFFSET ? ROWS FETCH NEXT ? ROWS ONLY ";

       return jdbcTemplate.queryForList(sql,new Object[] {productOfferId,"%"+productOfferName+"%",pageNo-1, pageElementSize});

    } catch (Exception e) {
        System.out.println(e);
        e.printStackTrace();
        return null;

How to set bot's status

.setGame is discontinued. Use:

client.user.setActivity("Game");

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

IF EXIST C:\directory\ goto a else goto b problems windows XP batch files

From the help (if /?):

The ELSE clause must occur on the same line as the command after the IF.  For
example:

    IF EXIST filename. (
        del filename.
    ) ELSE (
        echo filename. missing.
    )

The following would NOT work because the del command needs to be terminated
by a newline:

    IF EXIST filename. del filename. ELSE echo filename. missing

Nor would the following work, since the ELSE command must be on the same line
as the end of the IF command:

    IF EXIST filename. del filename.
    ELSE echo filename. missing

C error: undefined reference to function, but it IS defined

I had this issue recently. In my case, I had my IDE set to choose which compiler (C or C++) to use on each file according to its extension, and I was trying to call a C function (i.e. from a .c file) from C++ code.

The .h file for the C function wasn't wrapped in this sort of guard:

#ifdef __cplusplus
extern "C" {
#endif

// all of your legacy C code here

#ifdef __cplusplus
}
#endif

I could've added that, but I didn't want to modify it, so I just included it in my C++ file like so:

extern "C" {
#include "legacy_C_header.h"
}

(Hat tip to UncaAlby for his clear explanation of the effect of extern "C".)

How to efficiently calculate a running standard deviation?

The answer is to use Welford's algorithm, which is very clearly defined after the "naive methods" in:

It's more numerically stable than either the two-pass or online simple sum of squares collectors suggested in other responses. The stability only really matters when you have lots of values that are close to each other as they lead to what is known as "catastrophic cancellation" in the floating point literature.

You might also want to brush up on the difference between dividing by the number of samples (N) and N-1 in the variance calculation (squared deviation). Dividing by N-1 leads to an unbiased estimate of variance from the sample, whereas dividing by N on average underestimates variance (because it doesn't take into account the variance between the sample mean and the true mean).

I wrote two blog entries on the topic which go into more details, including how to delete previous values online:

You can also take a look at my Java implement; the javadoc, source, and unit tests are all online:

How to convert a plain object into an ES6 Map?

ES6

Note: the mapToObj function assumes map keys are strings (will fail otherwise)

WorksheetFunction.CountA - not working post upgrade to Office 2010

How to check model string property for null in a razor view

Try this first, you may be passing a Null Model:

@if (Model != null && !String.IsNullOrEmpty(Model.ImageName))
{
    <label for="Image">Change picture</label>
}
else
{ 
    <label for="Image">Add picture</label>
}

Otherise, you can make it even neater with some ternary fun! - but that will still error if your model is Null.

<label for="Image">@(String.IsNullOrEmpty(Model.ImageName) ? "Add" : "Change") picture</label>

sendmail: how to configure sendmail on ubuntu?

Combine two answers above, I finally make it work. Just be careful that the first single quote for each string is a backtick (`) in file sendmail.mc.

#Change to your mail config directory:
cd /etc/mail

#Make a auth subdirectory
mkdir auth
chmod 700 auth  #maybe not, because I cannot apply cmd "cd auth" if I do so.

#Create a file with your auth information to the smtp server
cd auth
touch client-info

#In the file, put the following, matching up to your smtp server:
AuthInfo:your.isp.net "U:root" "I:user" "P:password"

#Generate the Authentication database, make both files readable only by root
makemap hash client-info < client-info
chmod 600 client-info
cd ..

#Add the following lines to sendmail.mc. Make sure you update your smtp server
#The first single quote for each string should be changed to a backtick (`) like this:
define(`SMART_HOST',`your.isp.net')dnl
define(`confAUTH_MECHANISMS', `EXTERNAL GSSAPI DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5 LOGIN PLAIN')dnl
FEATURE(`authinfo',`hash /etc/mail/auth/client-info')dnl

Why do we use $rootScope.$broadcast in AngularJS?

Passing data !!!

I wonder why no one mention that $broadcast accept a parameter where you can pass an Object that will be received by $on using a callback function

Example:

// the object to transfert
var myObject = {
    status : 10
}

$rootScope.$broadcast('status_updated', myObject);
$scope.$on('status_updated', function(event, obj){
    console.log(obj.status); // 10
})

How to change working directory in Jupyter Notebook?

Search a whole table in mySQL for a string

Identify all the fields that could be related to your search and then use a query like:

SELECT * FROM clients
WHERE field1 LIKE '%Mary%'
   OR field2 LIKE '%Mary%'
   OR field3 LIKE '%Mary%'
   OR field4 LIKE '%Mary%'
   ....
   (do that for each field you want to check)

Using LIKE '%Mary%' instead of = 'Mary' will look for the fields that contains someCaracters + 'Mary' + someCaracters.

How can I create an array/list of dictionaries in python?

Try this:

lst = []
##use append to add items to the list.

lst.append({'A':0,'C':0,'G':0,'T':0})
lst.append({'A':1,'C':1,'G':1,'T':1})

##if u need to add n no of items to the list, use range with append:
for i in range(n):
    lst.append({'A':0,'C':0,'G':0,'T':0})

print lst

How to sort a list of objects based on an attribute of the objects?

A way that can be fastest, especially if your list has a lot of records, is to use operator.attrgetter("count"). However, this might run on an pre-operator version of Python, so it would be nice to have a fallback mechanism. You might want to do the following, then:

try: import operator
except ImportError: keyfun= lambda x: x.count # use a lambda if no operator module
else: keyfun= operator.attrgetter("count") # use operator since it's faster than lambda

ut.sort(key=keyfun, reverse=True) # sort in-place

Get client IP address via third party web service

A more reliable REST endpoint would be http://freegeoip.net/json/

Returns the ip address along with the geo-location too. Also has cross-domain requests enabled (Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *) so you don't have to code around JSONP.

Pass variables to AngularJS controller, best practice?

You could create a basket service. And generally in JS you use objects instead of lots of parameters.

Here's an example: http://jsfiddle.net/2MbZY/

var app = angular.module('myApp', []);

app.factory('basket', function() {
    var items = [];
    var myBasketService = {};

    myBasketService.addItem = function(item) {
        items.push(item);
    };
    myBasketService.removeItem = function(item) {
        var index = items.indexOf(item);
        items.splice(index, 1);
    };
    myBasketService.items = function() {
        return items;
    };

    return myBasketService;
});

function MyCtrl($scope, basket) {
    $scope.newItem = {};
    $scope.basket = basket;    
}

What is the correct Performance Counter to get CPU and Memory Usage of a Process?

From this post:

To get the entire PC CPU and Memory usage:

using System.Diagnostics;

Then declare globally:

private PerformanceCounter theCPUCounter = 
   new PerformanceCounter("Processor", "% Processor Time", "_Total"); 

Then to get the CPU time, simply call the NextValue() method:

this.theCPUCounter.NextValue();

This will get you the CPU usage

As for memory usage, same thing applies I believe:

private PerformanceCounter theMemCounter = 
   new PerformanceCounter("Memory", "Available MBytes");

Then to get the memory usage, simply call the NextValue() method:

this.theMemCounter.NextValue();

For a specific process CPU and Memory usage:

private PerformanceCounter theCPUCounter = 
   new PerformanceCounter("Process", "% Processor Time",              
   Process.GetCurrentProcess().ProcessName);

where Process.GetCurrentProcess().ProcessName is the process name you wish to get the information about.

private PerformanceCounter theMemCounter = 
   new PerformanceCounter("Process", "Working Set",
   Process.GetCurrentProcess().ProcessName);

where Process.GetCurrentProcess().ProcessName is the process name you wish to get the information about.

Note that Working Set may not be sufficient in its own right to determine the process' memory footprint -- see What is private bytes, virtual bytes, working set?

To retrieve all Categories, see Walkthrough: Retrieving Categories and Counters

The difference between Processor\% Processor Time and Process\% Processor Time is Processor is from the PC itself and Process is per individual process. So the processor time of the processor would be usage on the PC. Processor time of a process would be the specified processes usage. For full description of category names: Performance Monitor Counters

An alternative to using the Performance Counter

Use System.Diagnostics.Process.TotalProcessorTime and System.Diagnostics.ProcessThread.TotalProcessorTime properties to calculate your processor usage as this article describes.

Access restriction: Is not accessible due to restriction on required library ..\jre\lib\rt.jar

I had the same problem when my plugin was depending on another project, which exported some packages in its manifest file. Instead of changing access rules, I have managed to solve the problem by adding the required packages into its Export-Package section. This makes the packages legally visible. Eclipse actually provides this fix on the "Access restriction" error marker.

Reading a resource file from within jar

I had this problem before and I made fallback way for loading. Basically first way work within .jar file and second way works within eclipse or other IDE.

public class MyClass {

    public static InputStream accessFile() {
        String resource = "my-file-located-in-resources.txt";

        // this is the path within the jar file
        InputStream input = MyClass.class.getResourceAsStream("/resources/" + resource);
        if (input == null) {
            // this is how we load file within editor (eg eclipse)
            input = MyClass.class.getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream(resource);
        }

        return input;
    }
}

How do I make a JAR from a .java file?

Here is another fancy way of doing this:

$ ls | grep .java | xargs -I {} javac {} ; jar -cf myJar.jar *.class

Which will grab all the .java files ( ls | grep .java ) from your current directory and compile them into .class (xargs -I {} javac {}) and then create the jar file from the previously compiled classes (jar -cf myJar.jar *.class).

How to redirect to logon page when session State time out is completed in asp.net mvc

I discover very simple way to redirect Login Page When session end in MVC. I have already tested it and this works without problems.

In short, I catch session end in _Layout 1 minute before and make redirection.

I try to explain everything step by step.

If we want to session end 30 minute after and redirect to loginPage see this steps:

  1. Change the web config like this (set 31 minute):

     <system.web>
        <sessionState timeout="31"></sessionState>
     </system.web>
    
  2. Add this JavaScript in _Layout (when session end 1 minute before this code makes redirect, it makes count time after user last action, not first visit on site)

    <script>
        //session end 
        var sessionTimeoutWarning = @Session.Timeout- 1;
    
        var sTimeout = parseInt(sessionTimeoutWarning) * 60 * 1000;
        setTimeout('SessionEnd()', sTimeout);
    
        function SessionEnd() {
            window.location = "/Account/LogOff";
        }
    </script>
    
  3. Here is my LogOff Action, which makes only LogOff and redirect LoginIn Page

    public ActionResult LogOff()
    {
        Session["User"] = null; //it's my session variable
        Session.Clear();
        Session.Abandon();
        FormsAuthentication.SignOut(); //you write this when you use FormsAuthentication
        return RedirectToAction("Login", "Account");
    } 
    

I hope this is a very useful code for you.

What's the difference between a temp table and table variable in SQL Server?

Another difference:

A table var can only be accessed from statements within the procedure that creates it, not from other procedures called by that procedure or nested dynamic SQL (via exec or sp_executesql).

A temp table's scope, on the other hand, includes code in called procedures and nested dynamic SQL.

If the table created by your procedure must be accessible from other called procedures or dynamic SQL, you must use a temp table. This can be very handy in complex situations.

Cannot run emulator in Android Studio

Short answer: try to create the same image using the old school <AndroidSDK>\AVD Manager.exe.

Working in Android Studio, running all the integrated tools, it became natural to me not to use the old managers (AVD/SDK).

In my case, I had this problem when used the new (integrated) AVD Manager to create devices with old system images (API 11 and below, as I've tested).

When I tried to use the old school AVD Manager tool (located in <AndroidSDK>\AVD Manager.exe) to create these old device images, I had success.

Not too fancy (i.e. no regex etc), just a fast & dirty solution.

SQLiteDatabase.query method

if your SQL query is like this

SELECT col-1, col-2 FROM tableName WHERE col-1=apple,col-2=mango
GROUPBY col-3 HAVING Count(col-4) > 5  ORDERBY col-2 DESC LIMIT 15;

Then for query() method, we can do as:-

String table = "tableName";
String[] columns = {"col-1", "col-2"};
String selection = "col-1 =? AND col-2=?";       
String[] selectionArgs = {"apple","mango"};
String groupBy =col-3;
String having =" COUNT(col-4) > 5";
String orderBy = "col-2 DESC";
String limit = "15";

query(tableName, columns, selection, selectionArgs, groupBy, having, orderBy, limit);

Can't import database through phpmyadmin file size too large

You can also try compressing (zipping) the file. It sometimes works for me if I can't get to php.ini for phpmyadmin. If zipping reduces the file size below the maximum file size, it just might work!

Vue.js img src concatenate variable and text

If it helps, I am using the following to get a gravatar image:

<img
        :src="`https://www.gravatar.com/avatar/${this.gravatarHash(email)}?s=${size}&d=${this.defaultAvatar(email)}`"
        class="rounded-circle"
        :width="size"

Pass mouse events through absolutely-positioned element

There is a javascript version available which manually redirects events from one div to another.

I cleaned it up and made it into a jQuery plugin.

Here's the Github repository: https://github.com/BaronVonSmeaton/jquery.forwardevents

Unfortunately, the purpose I was using it for - overlaying a mask over Google Maps did not capture click and drag events, and the mouse cursor does not change which degrades the user experience enough that I just decided to hide the mask under IE and Opera - the two browsers which dont support pointer events.

Removing spaces from a variable input using PowerShell 4.0

You can use:

$answer.replace(' ' , '')

or

$answer -replace " ", ""

if you want to remove all whitespace you can use:

$answer -replace "\s", ""

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.

Selecting data frame rows based on partial string match in a column

I notice that you mention a function %like% in your current approach. I don't know if that's a reference to the %like% from "data.table", but if it is, you can definitely use it as follows.

Note that the object does not have to be a data.table (but also remember that subsetting approaches for data.frames and data.tables are not identical):

library(data.table)
mtcars[rownames(mtcars) %like% "Merc", ]
iris[iris$Species %like% "osa", ]

If that is what you had, then perhaps you had just mixed up row and column positions for subsetting data.


If you don't want to load a package, you can try using grep() to search for the string you're matching. Here's an example with the mtcars dataset, where we are matching all rows where the row names includes "Merc":

mtcars[grep("Merc", rownames(mtcars)), ]
             mpg cyl  disp  hp drat   wt qsec vs am gear carb
# Merc 240D   24.4   4 146.7  62 3.69 3.19 20.0  1  0    4    2
# Merc 230    22.8   4 140.8  95 3.92 3.15 22.9  1  0    4    2
# Merc 280    19.2   6 167.6 123 3.92 3.44 18.3  1  0    4    4
# Merc 280C   17.8   6 167.6 123 3.92 3.44 18.9  1  0    4    4
# Merc 450SE  16.4   8 275.8 180 3.07 4.07 17.4  0  0    3    3
# Merc 450SL  17.3   8 275.8 180 3.07 3.73 17.6  0  0    3    3
# Merc 450SLC 15.2   8 275.8 180 3.07 3.78 18.0  0  0    3    3

And, another example, using the iris dataset searching for the string osa:

irisSubset <- iris[grep("osa", iris$Species), ]
head(irisSubset)
#   Sepal.Length Sepal.Width Petal.Length Petal.Width Species
# 1          5.1         3.5          1.4         0.2  setosa
# 2          4.9         3.0          1.4         0.2  setosa
# 3          4.7         3.2          1.3         0.2  setosa
# 4          4.6         3.1          1.5         0.2  setosa
# 5          5.0         3.6          1.4         0.2  setosa
# 6          5.4         3.9          1.7         0.4  setosa

For your problem try:

selectedRows <- conservedData[grep("hsa-", conservedData$miRNA), ]

Custom seekbar (thumb size, color and background)

Use tints ;)

<SeekBar
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:minHeight="15dp"
        android:minWidth="15dp"
        android:maxHeight="15dp"
        android:maxWidth="15dp"
        android:progress="20"
        android:thumbTint="@color/colorPrimaryDark"
        android:progressTint="@color/colorPrimary"/>

use the color you need in thumbTint and progressTint. It is much faster! :)

Edit ofc you can use in combination with android:progressDrawable="@drawable/seekbar"

How do I lock the orientation to portrait mode in a iPhone Web Application?

The following code was used in our html5 game.

$(document).ready(function () {
     $(window)

How to configure slf4j-simple

You can programatically change it by setting the system property:

public class App {

    public static void main(String[] args) {

        System.setProperty(org.slf4j.impl.SimpleLogger.DEFAULT_LOG_LEVEL_KEY, "TRACE");

        final org.slf4j.Logger log = LoggerFactory.getLogger(App.class);

        log.trace("trace");
        log.debug("debug");
        log.info("info");
        log.warn("warning");
        log.error("error");

    }
}

The log levels are ERROR > WARN > INFO > DEBUG > TRACE.

Please note that once the logger is created the log level can't be changed. If you need to dynamically change the logging level you might want to use log4j with SLF4J.

npm install Error: rollbackFailedOptional

I tried following options to fix this issue and it worked.

  1. Uninstall Node.js version 8.
  2. Install Node.js version 6.11.4
  3. Use the registry option along with command to install any package.

For example to install express I used following command.

npm install express --registry http://registry.npmjs.org/

or

npm install express -g --registry http://registry.npmjs.org/

If you want to install locally in any specific folder then use below command. Below command will install express on path C:\Sample\Example1 .

C:\Sample1\Example1> npm install /Sample/Example1 express --registry http://registry.npmjs.org/

Note: If you are installing locally in a specific location then first go to that directory using command and then run above command. If you are not inside that directory and giving only path in command that will not work.

If you get package.json missing error then run below command before installing package locally

C:\Sample\Example1> npm init

above command will create package.json file. No need to provide any data. just hit enter.

Note: If you are behind a firewall then you may need to set a proxy.

app.config for a class library

Actually, for some rare case you could store app.config in class libraries (by adding manually) and parse it by OpenExeConfiguration.

 var fileMap =
    new ExeConfigurationFileMap {ExeConfigFilename = 
    @"C:\..somePath..\someName.config"};
 System.Configuration.Configuration config =
    ConfigurationManager.OpenMappedExeConfiguration(fileMap, 
    ConfigurationUserLevel.None);

You should really estimate the real need of this. For abstract data its not the best solution, but "Config Sections" could be very usefull!!

For example, we organised our N-Tier WCF architecture decoupled, without any metadata, simply by using Unity Container and Injection Factory based on Channel Factory T. We added externall ClassLibrary dll with just [Service Contract] Interfaces and common app.config in order to read endpoints from clientsection, and easily add/change them at one place.

Border length smaller than div width?

I just accomplished the opposite of this using :after and ::after because I needed to make my bottom border exactly 1.3rem wider:

My element got super deformed when I used :before and :after at the same time because the elements are horizontally aligned with display: flex, flex-direction: row and align-items: center.

You could use this for making something wider or narrower, or probably any mathematical dimension mods:

a.nav_link-active {
  color: $e1-red;
  margin-top: 3.7rem;
}
a.nav_link-active:visited {
  color: $e1-red;
}
a.nav_link-active:after {
  content: '';
  margin-top: 3.3rem;      // margin and height should
  height: 0.4rem;          // add up to active link margin
  background: $e1-red;
  margin-left: -$nav-spacer-margin;
  display: block;
}
a.nav_link-active::after {
  content: '';
  margin-top: 3.3rem;      // margin and height should
  height: 0.4rem;          // add up to active link margin
  background: $e1-red;
  margin-right: -$nav-spacer-margin;
  display: block;
}

Sorry, this is SCSS, just multiply the numbers by 10 and change the variables with some normal values.

Why std::cout instead of simply cout?

If you are working in ROOT, you do not even have to write #include<iostream> and using namespace std; simply start from int filename().

This will solve the issue.

Transfer data between databases with PostgreSQL

Databases are isolated in PostgreSQL; when you connect to a PostgreSQL server you connect to just one database, you can't copy data from one database to another using a SQL query.

If you come from MySQL: what MySQL calls (loosely) "databases" are "schemas" in PostgreSQL - sort of namespaces. A PostgreSQL database can have many schemas, each one with its tables and views, and you can copy from one schema to another with the schema.table syntax.

If you really have two distinct PostgreSQL databases, the common way of transferring data from one to another would be to export your tables (with pg_dump -t ) to a file, and import them into the other database (with psql).

If you really need to get data from a distinct PostgreSQL database, another option - mentioned in Grant Johnson's answer - is dblink, which is an additional module (in contrib/).

Update:

Postgres introduced "foreign data wrapper" in 9.1 (which was released after the question was asked). Foreign data wrappers allow the creation of foreign tables through the Postgres FDW which makes it possible to access a remote table (on a different server and database) as if it was a local table.

How can you determine a point is between two other points on a line segment?

how about just ensuring that the slope is the same and the point is between the others?

given points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) ( with x2 > x1) and candidate point (a,b)

if (b-y1) / (a-x1) = (y2-y2) / (x2-x1) And x1 < a < x2

Then (a,b) must be on line between (x1,y1) and (x2, y2)

How to get label of select option with jQuery?

Array.Add vs +=

If you want a dynamically sized array, then you should make a list. Not only will you get the .Add() functionality, but as @frode-f explains, dynamic arrays are more memory efficient and a better practice anyway.

And it's so easy to use.

Instead of your array declaration, try this:

$outItems = New-Object System.Collections.Generic.List[System.Object]

Adding items is simple.

$outItems.Add(1)
$outItems.Add("hi")

And if you really want an array when you're done, there's a function for that too.

$outItems.ToArray()

clearing select using jquery

Here is a small jQuery plugin that (among other things) can empty an dropdown list.

Just write:

$('your-select-element').selectUtils('setEmpty');

How to use ImageBackground to set background image for screen in react-native

I faced same problem with background image and its child components including logo images. After wasting few hours, I found the correct way to solve this problem. This is surely helped to you.

var {View, Text, Image, ImageBackground} = require('react-native');
import Images from '@assets';

export default class Welcome extends Component {
    render() {
        return (
            <ImageBackground source={Images.main_bg} style={styles.container}>
                <View style={styles.markWrap}>
                    <Image source={Images.main_logo} 
                    style={styles.mark} resizeMode="contain" />
                </View>
                <View style={[styles.wrapper]}>
                    {//Here put your other components}
                </View>              
                
            </ImageBackground>
        );
    }
}

var styles = StyleSheet.create({
    container:{
        flex: 1,
    },
    markWrap: {
        flex: 1,
        marginTop: 83,
        borderWidth:1, borderColor: "green"
      },

How do I add a auto_increment primary key in SQL Server database?

It can be done in a single command. You need to set the IDENTITY property for "auto number":

ALTER TABLE MyTable ADD mytableID int NOT NULL IDENTITY (1,1) PRIMARY KEY

More precisely, to set a named table level constraint:

ALTER TABLE MyTable
   ADD MytableID int NOT NULL IDENTITY (1,1),
   CONSTRAINT PK_MyTable PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED (MyTableID)

See ALTER TABLE and IDENTITY on MSDN

Accessing JSON elements

Just for more one option...You can do it this way too:

MYJSON = {
    'username': 'gula_gut',
    'pics': '/0/myfavourite.jpeg',
    'id': '1'
}

#changing username
MYJSON['username'] = 'calixto'
print(MYJSON['username'])

I hope this can help.

How do I wait until Task is finished in C#?

A clean example that answers the Title

string output = "Error";
Task task = Task.Factory.StartNew(() =>

    output = "Complete";
});

task.Wait();
Console.WriteLine(output);

When do I need to do "git pull", before or after "git add, git commit"?

I think git pull --rebase is the cleanest way to set your locally recent commits on top of the remote commits which you don't have at a certain point.

So this way you don't have to pull every time you want to start making changes.

NoClassDefFoundError for code in an Java library on Android

I am guessing that you don't specify javac's target when creating the common library, so javac automatically uses the latest available target, which is likely 1.7 (Java7) or 1.8 (Java8).

It has already been stated that

Android requires compiler compliance level 5.0 or 6.0

dx of Android's build tools < 19.0.0 isn't able to convert Java7 (or higher) bytecode to Dalvik bytecode.

So either use a build tools version >= 19.0.0 or use javac with -target 6, by modifying for example your ant build.xml like this:

<javac
srcdir="src/"
destdir="build/"
target="6"
/>

Non-resolvable parent POM using Maven 3.0.3 and relativePath notation

How to make a smooth image rotation in Android?

This works fine

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<rotate xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:duration="1600"
    android:fromDegrees="0"
    android:interpolator="@android:anim/linear_interpolator"
    android:pivotX="50%"
    android:pivotY="50%"
    android:repeatCount="infinite"
    android:toDegrees="358" />

To reverse rotate:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<rotate xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:duration="1600"
    android:fromDegrees="358"
    android:interpolator="@android:anim/linear_interpolator"
    android:pivotX="50%"
    android:pivotY="50%"
    android:repeatCount="infinite"
    android:toDegrees="0" />

Remove part of a string

Use regular expressions. In this case, you can use gsub:

gsub("^.*?_","_","ATGAS_1121")
[1] "_1121"

This regular expression matches the beginning of the string (^), any character (.) repeated zero or more times (*), and underscore (_). The ? makes the match "lazy" so that it only matches are far as the first underscore. That match is replaced with just an underscore. See ?regex for more details and references

Failed to connect to mailserver at "localhost" port 25, verify your "SMTP" and "smtp_port" setting in php.ini or use ini_set()

If you are running your application just on localhost and it is not yet live, I believe it is very difficult to send mail using this.

Once you put your application online, I believe that this problem should be automatically solved. By the way,ini_set() helps you to change the values in php.ini during run time.

This is the same question as Failed to connect to mailserver at "localhost" port 25

also check this php mail function not working

Multiple types were found that match the controller named 'Home'

I just had this issue, but only when I published to my website, on my local debug it ran fine. I found I had to use the FTP from my webhost and go into my publish dir and delete the files in the BIN folder, deleting them locally did nothing when I published.

Hamcrest compare collections

To complement @Joe's answer:

Hamcrest provides you with three main methods to match a list:

contains Checks for matching all the elements taking in count the order, if the list has more or less elements, it will fail

containsInAnyOrder Checks for matching all the elements and it doesn't matter the order, if the list has more or less elements, will fail

hasItems Checks just for the specified objects it doesn't matter if the list has more

hasItem Checks just for one object it doesn't matter if the list has more

All of them can receive a list of objects and use equals method for comparation or can be mixed with other matchers like @borjab mentioned:

assertThat(myList , contains(allOf(hasProperty("id", is(7L)), 
                                   hasProperty("name", is("testName1")),
                                   hasProperty("description", is("testDesc1"))),
                             allOf(hasProperty("id", is(11L)), 
                                   hasProperty("name", is("testName2")),
                                   hasProperty("description", is("testDesc2")))));

link button property to open in new tab?

When the LinkButton Enabled property is false it just renders a standard hyperlink. When you right click any disabled hyperlink you don't get the option to open in anything.

try

lbnkVidTtile1.Enabled = true;

I'm sorry if I misunderstood. Could I just make sure that you understand the purpose of a LinkButton? It is to give the appearance of a HyperLink but the behaviour of a Button. This means that it will have an anchor tag, but there is JavaScript wired up that performs a PostBack to the page. If you want to link to another page then it is recommended here that you use a standard HyperLink control.

Proper way to empty a C-String

Two other ways are strcpy(str, ""); and string[0] = 0

To really delete the Variable contents (in case you have dirty code which is not working properly with the snippets above :P ) use a loop like in the example below.

#include <string.h>

...

int i=0;
for(i=0;i<strlen(string);i++)
{
    string[i] = 0;
}

In case you want to clear a dynamic allocated array of chars from the beginning, you may either use a combination of malloc() and memset() or - and this is way faster - calloc() which does the same thing as malloc but initializing the whole array with Null.

At last i want you to have your runtime in mind. All the way more, if you're handling huge arrays (6 digits and above) you should try to set the first value to Null instead of running memset() through the whole String.

It may look dirtier at first, but is way faster. You just need to pay more attention on your code ;)

I hope this was useful for anybody ;)

How do I debug Windows services in Visual Studio?

Either that as suggested by Lasse V. Karlsen, or set up a loop in your service that will wait for a debugger to attach. The simplest is

while (!Debugger.IsAttached)
{
    Thread.Sleep(1000);
}

... continue with code

That way you can start the service and inside Visual Studio you choose "Attach to Process..." and attach to your service which then will resume normal exution.

Create a temporary table in a SELECT statement without a separate CREATE TABLE

Engine must be before select:

CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE temp1 ENGINE=MEMORY 
as (select * from table1)

in python how do I convert a single digit number into a double digits string?

a = 5
print '%02d' % a
# output: 05

The '%' operator is called string formatting operator when used with a string on the left side. '%d' is the formatting code to print out an integer number (you will get a type error if the value isn't numeric). With '%2d you can specify the length, and '%02d' can be used to set the padding character to a 0 instead of the default space.

How to post data to specific URL using WebClient in C#

Using WebClient.UploadString or WebClient.UploadData you can POST data to the server easily. I’ll show an example using UploadData, since UploadString is used in the same manner as DownloadString.

byte[] bret = client.UploadData("http://www.website.com/post.php", "POST",
                System.Text.Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes("field1=value1&amp;field2=value2") );
 
string sret = System.Text.Encoding.ASCII.GetString(bret);

How can I access each element of a pair in a pair list?

I don't think that you'll like it but I made a pair port for python :) using it is some how similar to c++

pair = Pair
pair.make_pair(value1, value2)

or

pair = Pair(value1, value2)

here's the source code pair_stl_for_python

Center an element in Bootstrap 4 Navbar

from the docs

Navbars may contain bits of text with the help of .navbar-text. This class adjusts vertical alignment and horizontal spacing for strings of text.

i applied the .navbar-text class to my <li> element, so the result is

<li class="nav-item navbar-text">

this centers the links vertically with respect to my navbar-brand img

Date ticks and rotation in matplotlib

Solution works for matplotlib 2.1+

There exists an axes method tick_params that can change tick properties. It also exists as an axis method as set_tick_params

ax.tick_params(axis='x', rotation=45)

Or

ax.xaxis.set_tick_params(rotation=45)

As a side note, the current solution mixes the stateful interface (using pyplot) with the object-oriented interface by using the command plt.xticks(rotation=70). Since the code in the question uses the object-oriented approach, it's best to stick to that approach throughout. The solution does give a good explicit solution with plt.setp( axs[1].xaxis.get_majorticklabels(), rotation=70 )

How do I turn off autocommit for a MySQL client?

Perhaps the best way is to write a script that starts the mysql command line client and then automatically runs whatever sql you want before it hands over the control to you.

linux comes with an application called 'expect'. it interacts with the shell in such a way as to mimic your key strokes. it can be set to start mysql, wait for you to enter your password. run further commands such as SET autocommit = 0; then go into interactive mode so you can run any command you want.

for more on the command SET autocommit = 0; see.. http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/innodb-transaction-model.html

I use expect to log in to a command line utility in my case it starts ssh, connects to the remote server, starts the application enters my username and password then turns over control to me. saves me heaps of typing :)

http://linux.die.net/man/1/expect

DC

Expect script provided by Michael Hinds

spawn /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql 
expect "mysql>" 
send "set autocommit=0;\r" 
expect "mysql>" interact

expect is pretty powerful and can make life a lot easier as in this case.

if you want to make the script run without calling expect use the shebang line

insert this as the first line in your script (hint: use which expect to find the location of your expect executable)

#! /usr/bin/expect

then change the permissions of your script with..

chmod 0744 myscript

then call the script

./myscript

getting the index of a row in a pandas apply function

To answer the original question: yes, you can access the index value of a row in apply(). It is available under the key name and requires that you specify axis=1 (because the lambda processes the columns of a row and not the rows of a column).

Working example (pandas 0.23.4):

>>> import pandas as pd
>>> df = pd.DataFrame([[1,2,3],[4,5,6]], columns=['a','b','c'])
>>> df.set_index('a', inplace=True)
>>> df
   b  c
a      
1  2  3
4  5  6
>>> df['index_x10'] = df.apply(lambda row: 10*row.name, axis=1)
>>> df
   b  c  index_x10
a                 
1  2  3         10
4  5  6         40

Select n random rows from SQL Server table

select top 10 percent * from [yourtable] order by newid()

In response to the "pure trash" comment concerning large tables: you could do it like this to improve performance.

select  * from [yourtable] where [yourPk] in 
(select top 10 percent [yourPk] from [yourtable] order by newid())

The cost of this will be the key scan of values plus the join cost, which on a large table with a small percentage selection should be reasonable.

Qt jpg image display

If the only thing you want to do is drop in an image onto a widget withouth the complexity of the graphics API, you can also just create a new QWidget and set the background with StyleSheets. Something like this:

MainWindow::MainWindow(QWidget *parent) : QMainWindow(parent)
{
    ...
    QWidget *pic = new QWidget(this);
    pic->setStyleSheet("background-image: url(test.png)");
    pic->setGeometry(QRect(50,50,128,128));
    ...

how to get the value of css style using jquery

You code is correct. replace items with .items as below

<script>
  var n = $(".items").css("left");
  if(n == -900){
    $(".items span").fadeOut("slow");
  }
</script>

Delete last char of string

string strgroupids = string.Empty;

groupIds.ForEach(g =>
{
    strgroupids = strgroupids + g.ToString() + ",";
});

strgroupids = strgroupids.Substring(0, strgroupids.Length - 1);

Note that the use of ForEach here is normally considered "wrong" (read for example http://blogs.msdn.com/b/ericlippert/archive/2009/05/18/foreach-vs-foreach.aspx)

Using some LINQ:

string strgroupids = groupIds.Aggregate(string.Empty, (p, q) => p + q + ',');
strgroupids = strgroupids.Substring(0, str1.Length - 1);

Without end-substringing:

string strgroupids = groupIds.Aggregate(string.Empty, (p, q) => (p != string.Empty ? p + "," + q : q.ToString()));

How to pass an ArrayList to a varargs method parameter?

Source article: Passing a list as an argument to a vararg method


Use the toArray(T[] arr) method.

.getMap(locations.toArray(new WorldLocation[locations.size()]))

(toArray(new WorldLocation[0]) also works, but you would allocate a zero-length array for no reason.)


Here's a complete example:

public static void method(String... strs) {
    for (String s : strs)
        System.out.println(s);
}

...
    List<String> strs = new ArrayList<String>();
    strs.add("hello");
    strs.add("world");
    
    method(strs.toArray(new String[strs.size()]));
    //     ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Get value of a specific object property in C# without knowing the class behind

In some cases, Reflection doesn't work properly.

You could use dictionaries, if all item types are the same. For instance, if your items are strings :

Dictionary<string, string> response = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<Dictionary<string, string>>(item);

Or ints:

Dictionary<string, int> response = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<Dictionary<string, int>>(item);

How to detect when a youtube video finishes playing?

What you may want to do is include a script on all pages that does the following ... 1. find the youtube-iframe : searching for it by width and height by title or by finding www.youtube.com in its source. You can do that by ... - looping through the window.frames by a for-in loop and then filter out by the properties

  1. inject jscript in the iframe of the current page adding the onYoutubePlayerReady must-include-function http://shazwazza.com/post/Injecting-JavaScript-into-other-frames.aspx

  2. Add the event listeners etc..

How do I `jsonify` a list in Flask?

This is working for me. Which version of Flask are you using?

from flask import jsonify

...

@app.route('/test/json')
def test_json():
    list = [
            {'a': 1, 'b': 2},
            {'a': 5, 'b': 10}
           ]
    return jsonify(results = list)

How to extract the n-th elements from a list of tuples?

I know that it could be done with a FOR but I wanted to know if there's another way

There is another way. You can also do it with map and itemgetter:

>>> from operator import itemgetter
>>> map(itemgetter(1), elements)

This still performs a loop internally though and it is slightly slower than the list comprehension:

setup = 'elements = [(1,1,1) for _ in range(100000)];from operator import itemgetter'
method1 = '[x[1] for x in elements]'
method2 = 'map(itemgetter(1), elements)'

import timeit
t = timeit.Timer(method1, setup)
print('Method 1: ' + str(t.timeit(100)))
t = timeit.Timer(method2, setup)
print('Method 2: ' + str(t.timeit(100)))

Results:

Method 1: 1.25699996948
Method 2: 1.46600008011

If you need to iterate over a list then using a for is fine.

CSS class for pointer cursor

Unfortunately there is no such class in Bootstrap as of now (27th Jan 2019).

I scanned through bootstrap code and discovered following classes that use cursor: pointer. Seems like it is not a good idea to use any of them specifically for cursor: pointer.

summary {
  display: list-item;
  cursor: pointer;
}
.btn:not(:disabled):not(.disabled) {
  cursor: pointer;
}
.custom-range::-webkit-slider-runnable-track {
  width: 100%;
  height: 0.5rem;
  color: transparent;
  cursor: pointer;
  background-color: #dee2e6;
  border-color: transparent;
  border-radius: 1rem;
}
.custom-range::-moz-range-track {
  width: 100%;
  height: 0.5rem;
  color: transparent;
  cursor: pointer;
  background-color: #dee2e6;
  border-color: transparent;
  border-radius: 1rem;
}
.custom-range::-ms-track {
  width: 100%;
  height: 0.5rem;
  color: transparent;
  cursor: pointer;
  background-color: transparent;
  border-color: transparent;
  border-width: 0.5rem;
}
.navbar-toggler:not(:disabled):not(.disabled) {
  cursor: pointer;
}
.page-link:not(:disabled):not(.disabled) {
  cursor: pointer;
}
.close:not(:disabled):not(.disabled) {
  cursor: pointer;
}
.carousel-indicators li {
  box-sizing: content-box;
  -ms-flex: 0 1 auto;
  flex: 0 1 auto;
  width: 30px;
  height: 3px;
  margin-right: 3px;
  margin-left: 3px;
  text-indent: -999px;
  cursor: pointer;
  background-color: #fff;
  background-clip: padding-box;
  border-top: 10px solid transparent;
  border-bottom: 10px solid transparent;
  opacity: .5;
  transition: opacity 0.6s ease;
}

The only OBVIOUS SOLUTION:

What I would suggest you is just to create a class in your common css as cursor-pointer. That is simple and elegant as of now.

_x000D_
_x000D_
.cursor-pointer{_x000D_
  cursor: pointer;_x000D_
}
_x000D_
<div class="cursor-pointer">Hover on  me</div>
_x000D_
_x000D_
_x000D_

what do <form action="#"> and <form method="post" action="#"> do?

Action normally specifies the file/page that the form is submitted to (using the method described in the method paramater (post, get etc.))

An action of # indicates that the form stays on the same page, simply suffixing the url with a #. Similar use occurs in anchors. <a href=#">Link</a> for example, will stay on the same page.

Thus, the form is submitted to the same page, which then processes the data etc.

convert '1' to '0001' in JavaScript

Just to demonstrate the flexibility of javascript: you can use a oneliner for this

function padLeft(nr, n, str){
    return Array(n-String(nr).length+1).join(str||'0')+nr;
}
//or as a Number prototype method:
Number.prototype.padLeft = function (n,str){
    return Array(n-String(this).length+1).join(str||'0')+this;
}
//examples
console.log(padLeft(23,5));       //=> '00023'
console.log((23).padLeft(5));     //=> '00023'
console.log((23).padLeft(5,' ')); //=> '   23'
console.log(padLeft(23,5,'>>'));  //=> '>>>>>>23'

If you want to use this for negative numbers also:

Number.prototype.padLeft = function (n,str) {
    return (this < 0 ? '-' : '') + 
            Array(n-String(Math.abs(this)).length+1)
             .join(str||'0') + 
           (Math.abs(this));
}
console.log((-23).padLeft(5));     //=> '-00023'

Alternative if you don't want to use Array:

number.prototype.padLeft = function (len,chr) {
 var self = Math.abs(this)+'';
 return (this<0 && '-' || '')+
         (String(Math.pow( 10, (len || 2)-self.length))
           .slice(1).replace(/0/g,chr||'0') + self);
}

.NET Events - What are object sender & EventArgs e?

The sender is the control that the action is for (say OnClick, it's the button).

The EventArgs are arguments that the implementor of this event may find useful. With OnClick it contains nothing good, but in some events, like say in a GridView 'SelectedIndexChanged', it will contain the new index, or some other useful data.

What Chris is saying is you can do this:

protected void someButton_Click (object sender, EventArgs ea)
{
    Button someButton = sender as Button;
    if(someButton != null)
    {
        someButton.Text = "I was clicked!";
    }
}

How to justify navbar-nav in Bootstrap 3

It turns out that there is a float: left property by default on all navbar-nav>li elements, which is why they were all scrunching up to the left. Once I added the code below, it made the navbar both centered and not scrunched up.

.navbar-nav>li {
        float: none;
}

Hope this helps someone else who's looking to center a navbar.

What is the => assignment in C# in a property signature

Ok... I made a comment that they were different but couldn't explain exactly how but now I know.

String Property { get; } = "value";

is not the same as

String Property => "value";

Here's the difference...

When you use the auto initializer the property creates the instance of value and uses that value persistently. In the above post there is a broken link to Bill Wagner, that explains this well, and I searched the correct link to understand it myself.

In my situation I had my property auto initialize a command in a ViewModel for a View. I changed the property to use expression bodied initializer and the command CanExecute stopped working.

Here's what it looked like and here's what was happening.

Command MyCommand { get; } = new Command();  //works

here's what I changed it to.

Command MyCommand => new Command();  //doesn't work properly

The difference here is when I use { get; } = I create and reference the SAME command in that property. When I use => I actually create a new command and return it every time the property is called. Therefore, I could never update the CanExecute on my command because I was always telling it to update a new reference of that command.

{ get; } = // same reference
=>         // new reference

All that said, if you are just pointing to a backing field then it works fine. This only happens when the auto or expression body creates the return value.

How to squash all git commits into one?

I usually do it like this:

  • Make sure everything is committed, and write down the latest commit id in case something goes wrong, or create a separate branch as the backup

  • Run git reset --soft `git rev-list --max-parents=0 --abbrev-commit HEAD` to reset your head to the first commit, but leave your index unchanged. All changes since the first commit will now appear ready to be committed.

  • Run git commit --amend -m "initial commit" to amend your commit to the first commit and change the commit message, or if you want to keep the existing commit message, you can run git commit --amend --no-edit

  • Run git push -f to force push your changes

Prevent double submission of forms in jQuery

            if(!submitFunction()){
                event.preventDefault();
                return false;
            }                   
        }

        if ($form.data('submitted') === true) {
            /*Previously submitted - don't submit again */
            e.preventDefault();
        } else {
          /*Mark it so that the next submit can be ignored*/
          $form.data('submitted', true);
        }
      });

      /*Keep chainability*/
      return this;
    };

Default values in a C Struct

You can change your secret special value to 0, and exploit C's default structure-member semantics

struct foo bar = { .id = 42, .current_route = new_route };
update(&bar);

will then pass 0 as members of bar unspecified in the initializer.

Or you can create a macro that will do the default initialization for you:

#define FOO_INIT(...) { .id = -1, .current_route = -1, .quux = -1, ## __VA_ARGS__ }

struct foo bar = FOO_INIT( .id = 42, .current_route = new_route );
update(&bar);

$lookup on ObjectId's in an array

2017 update

$lookup can now directly use an array as the local field. $unwind is no longer needed.

Old answer

The $lookup aggregation pipeline stage will not work directly with an array. The main intent of the design is for a "left join" as a "one to many" type of join ( or really a "lookup" ) on the possible related data. But the value is intended to be singular and not an array.

Therefore you must "de-normalise" the content first prior to performing the $lookup operation in order for this to work. And that means using $unwind:

db.orders.aggregate([
    // Unwind the source
    { "$unwind": "$products" },
    // Do the lookup matching
    { "$lookup": {
       "from": "products",
       "localField": "products",
       "foreignField": "_id",
       "as": "productObjects"
    }},
    // Unwind the result arrays ( likely one or none )
    { "$unwind": "$productObjects" },
    // Group back to arrays
    { "$group": {
        "_id": "$_id",
        "products": { "$push": "$products" },
        "productObjects": { "$push": "$productObjects" }
    }}
])

After $lookup matches each array member the result is an array itself, so you $unwind again and $group to $push new arrays for the final result.

Note that any "left join" matches that are not found will create an empty array for the "productObjects" on the given product and thus negate the document for the "product" element when the second $unwind is called.

Though a direct application to an array would be nice, it's just how this currently works by matching a singular value to a possible many.

As $lookup is basically very new, it currently works as would be familiar to those who are familiar with mongoose as a "poor mans version" of the .populate() method offered there. The difference being that $lookup offers "server side" processing of the "join" as opposed to on the client and that some of the "maturity" in $lookup is currently lacking from what .populate() offers ( such as interpolating the lookup directly on an array ).

This is actually an assigned issue for improvement SERVER-22881, so with some luck this would hit the next release or one soon after.

As a design principle, your current structure is neither good or bad, but just subject to overheads when creating any "join". As such, the basic standing principle of MongoDB in inception applies, where if you "can" live with the data "pre-joined" in the one collection, then it is best to do so.

The one other thing that can be said of $lookup as a general principle, is that the intent of the "join" here is to work the other way around than shown here. So rather than keeping the "related ids" of the other documents within the "parent" document, the general principle that works best is where the "related documents" contain a reference to the "parent".

So $lookup can be said to "work best" with a "relation design" that is the reverse of how something like mongoose .populate() performs it's client side joins. By idendifying the "one" within each "many" instead, then you just pull in the related items without needing to $unwind the array first.

Are there dictionaries in php?

http://php.net/manual/en/language.types.array.php

<?php
$array = array(
    "foo" => "bar",
    "bar" => "foo",
);

// as of PHP 5.4
$array = [
    "foo" => "bar",
    "bar" => "foo",
];
?>

Standard arrays can be used that way.

Most efficient way to find mode in numpy array

A neat solution that only uses numpy (not scipy nor the Counter class):

A = np.array([[1,3,4,2,2,7], [5,2,2,1,4,1], [3,3,2,2,1,1]])

np.apply_along_axis(lambda x: np.bincount(x).argmax(), axis=0, arr=A)

array([1, 3, 2, 2, 1, 1])

Convert double to float in Java

The problem is, your value cannot be stored accurately in single precision floating point type. Proof:

public class test{
    public static void main(String[] args){
        Float a = Float.valueOf("23423424666767");
        System.out.printf("%f\n", a); //23423424135168,000000
        System.out.println(a);        //2.34234241E13
    }
}

Another thing is: you don't get "2.3423424666767E13", it's just the visual representation of the number stored in memory. "How you print out" and "what is in memory" are two distinct things. Example above shows you how to print the number as float, which avoids scientific notation you were getting.

iOS 9 not opening Instagram app with URL SCHEME

iOS 9 has made a small change to the handling of URL scheme. You must whitelist the url's that your app will call out to using the LSApplicationQueriesSchemes key in your Info.plist.

Please see post here: http://awkwardhare.com/post/121196006730/quick-take-on-ios-9-url-scheme-changes

The main conclusion is that:

If you call the “canOpenURL” method on a URL that is not in your whitelist, it will return “NO”, even if there is an app installed that has registered to handle this scheme. A “This app is not allowed to query for scheme xxx” syslog entry will appear.

If you call the “openURL” method on a URL that is not in your whitelist, it will fail silently. A “This app is not allowed to query for scheme xxx” syslog entry will appear.

The author also speculates that this is a bug with the OS and Apple will fix this in a subsequent release.

'python3' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file

You can also try this: Go to the path where Python is installed in your system. For me it was something like C:\Users\\Local Settings\Application Data\Programs\Python\Python37 In this folder, you'll find a python executable. Just create a duplicate and rename it to python3. Works every time.

How can I get the console logs from the iOS Simulator?

iOS Simulator > Menu Bar > Debug > Open System Log


Old ways:

iOS Simulator prints its logs directly to stdout, so you can see the logs mixed up with system logs.

Open the Terminal and type: tail -f /var/log/system.log

Then run the simulator.

EDIT:

This stopped working on Mavericks/Xcode 5. Now you can access the simulator logs in its own folder: ~/Library/Logs/iOS Simulator/<sim-version>/system.log

You can either use the Console.app to see this, or just do a tail (iOS 7.0.3 64 bits for example):

tail -f ~/Library/Logs/iOS\ Simulator/7.0.3-64/system.log

EDIT 2:

They are now located in ~/Library/Logs/CoreSimulator/<simulator-hash>/system.log

tail -f ~/Library/Logs/CoreSimulator/<simulator-hash>/system.log

What does API level mean?

An API is ready-made source code library.

In Java for example APIs are a set of related classes and interfaces that come in packages. This picture illustrates the libraries included in the Java Standard Edition API. Packages are denoted by their color.

Spark : how to run spark file from spark shell

You can run as you run your shell script. This example to run from command line environment example

./bin/spark-shell :- this is the path of your spark-shell under bin /home/fold1/spark_program.py :- This is the path where your python program is there.

So:

./bin.spark-shell /home/fold1/spark_prohram.py

Could not establish secure channel for SSL/TLS with authority '*'

Yes an Untrusted certificate can cause this. Look at the certificate path for the webservice by opening the websservice in a browser and use the browser tools to look at the certificate path. You may need to install one or more intermediate certificates onto the computer calling the webservice. In the browser you may see "Certificate errors" with an option to "Install Certificate" when you investigate further - this could be the certificate you missing.

My particular problem was a Geotrust Geotrust DV SSL CA intermediate certificate missing following an upgrade to their root server in July 2010 https://knowledge.geotrust.com/support/knowledge-base/index?page=content&id=AR1422

how to set font size based on container size?

You may be able to do this with CSS3 using calculations, however it would most likely be safer to use JavaScript.

Here is an example: http://jsfiddle.net/8TrTU/

Using JS you can change the height of the text, then simply bind this same calculation to a resize event, during resize so it scales while the user is making adjustments, or however you are allowing resizing of your elements.

Java Does Not Equal (!=) Not Working?

Sure, you can use equals if you want to go along with the crowd, but if you really want to amaze your fellow programmers check for inequality like this:

if ("success" != statusCheck.intern())

intern method is part of standard Java String API.

no operator "<<" matches these operands

If you want to use std::string reliably, you must #include <string>.

How to temporarily disable a click handler in jQuery?

$("#button_id").click(function() {
    $('#button_id').attr('disabled', 'true');

}); 

Don't use .attr() to do the disabled, use .prop(), it's better.

CSS to select/style first word

Sadly even with the likes of CSS 3 we still do not have the likes of :first-word :last-word etc using pure CSS. Thankfully there's almost a JavaScript nowadays for everything which brings me to my recommendation. Using nthEverything and jQuery you can expand from the traditional Pseudo elements.

Currently the valid Pseudos are:

  • :first-child
  • :first-of-type
  • :only-child
  • :last-child
  • :last-of-type
  • :only-of-type
  • :nth-child
  • :nth-of-type
  • :nth-last-child
  • :nth-last-of-type

And using nth Everything we can expand this to:

  • ::first-letter
  • ::first-line
  • ::first-word
  • ::last-letter
  • ::last-line
  • ::last-word
  • ::nth-letter
  • ::nth-line
  • ::nth-word
  • ::nth-last-letter
  • ::nth-last-line
  • ::nth-last-word

Iframe transparent background

<style type="text/css">
body {background:none transparent;
}
</style>

that might work (if you put in the iframe) along with

<iframe src="stuff.htm" allowtransparency="true">

Make one div visible and another invisible

You can use the display property of style. Intialy set the result section style as

style = "display:none"

Then the div will not be visible and there won't be any white space.

Once the search results are being populated change the display property using the java script like

document.getElementById("someObj").style.display = "block"

Using java script you can make the div invisible

document.getElementById("someObj").style.display = "none"

Error # 1045 - Cannot Log in to MySQL server -> phpmyadmin

In mysql 5.7 the auth mechanism changed, documentation can be found in the official manual here.

Using the system root user (or sudo) you can connect to the mysql database with the mysql 'root' user via CLI. All other users will work, too.

In phpmyadmin however, all mysql users will work, but not the mysql 'root' user.

This comes from here:

$ mysql -Ne "select Host,User,plugin from mysql.user where user='root';"
+-----------+------+-----------------------+
| localhost | root | auth_socket |
|  hostname | root | mysql_native_password |
+-----------+------+-----------------------+

To 'fix' this security feature, do:

mysql -Ne "update mysql.user set plugin='mysql_native_password' where User='root' and Host='localhost'; flush privileges;"

More on this can also be found here in the manual.

Redis strings vs Redis hashes to represent JSON: efficiency?

It depends on how you access the data:

Go for Option 1:

  • If you use most of the fields on most of your accesses.
  • If there is variance on possible keys

Go for Option 2:

  • If you use just single fields on most of your accesses.
  • If you always know which fields are available

P.S.: As a rule of the thumb, go for the option which requires fewer queries on most of your use cases.

Top 1 with a left join

Use OUTER APPLY instead of LEFT JOIN:

SELECT u.id, mbg.marker_value 
FROM dps_user u
OUTER APPLY 
    (SELECT TOP 1 m.marker_value, um.profile_id
     FROM dps_usr_markers um (NOLOCK)
         INNER JOIN dps_markers m (NOLOCK) 
             ON m.marker_id= um.marker_id AND 
                m.marker_key = 'moneyBackGuaranteeLength'
     WHERE um.profile_id=u.id 
     ORDER BY m.creation_date
    ) AS MBG
WHERE u.id = 'u162231993';

Unlike JOIN, APPLY allows you to reference the u.id inside the inner query.

How to get records randomly from the oracle database?

In summary, two ways were introduced

1) using order by DBMS_RANDOM.VALUE clause
2) using sample([%]) function

The first way has advantage in 'CORRECTNESS' which means you will never fail get result if it actually exists, while in the second way you may get no result even though it has cases satisfying the query condition since information is reduced during sampling.

The second way has advantage in 'EFFICIENT' which mean you will get result faster and give light load to your database. I was given an warning from DBA that my query using the first way gives loads to the database

You can choose one of two ways according to your interest!

What are .NET Assemblies?

In addition to the accepted answer, I want to give you an example!

For instance, we all use

System.Console.WriteLine()

But Where is the code for System.Console.WriteLine!?
which is the code that actually puts the text on the console?

If you look at the first page of the documentation for the Console class, you‘ll see near the top the following: Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll) This indicates that the code for the Console class is located in an assem-bly named mscorlib. An assembly can consist of multiple files, but in this case it‘s only one file, which is the dynamic link library mscorlib.dll.

The mscorlib.dll file is very important in .NET, It is the main DLL for class libraries in .NET, and it contains all the basic .NET classes and structures.

if you know C or C++, generally you need a #include directive at the top that references a header file. The include file provides function prototypes to the compiler. on the contrast The C# compiler does not need header files. During compilation, the C# compiler access the mscorlib.dll file directly and obtains information from metadata in that file concerning all the classes and other types defined therein.

The C# compiler is able to establish that mscorlib.dll does indeed contain a class named Console in a namespace named System with a method named WriteLine that accepts a single argument of type string.

The C# compiler can determine that the WriteLine call is valid, and the compiler establishes a reference to the mscorlib assembly in the executable.

by default The C# compiler will access mscorlib.dll, but for other DLLs, you‘ll need to tell the compiler the assembly in which the classes are located. These are known as references.

I hope that it's clear now!

How to send email using simple SMTP commands via Gmail?

Based on the existing answers, here's a step-by-step guide to sending automated e-mails over SMTP, using a GMail account, from the command line, without disclosing the password.

Requirements

First, install the following software packages:

These instructions assume a Linux operating system, but should be reasonably easy to port to Windows (via Cygwin or native equivalents), or other operating system.

Authentication

Save the following shell script as authentication.sh:

#!/bin/bash

# Asks for a username and password, then spits out the encoded value for
# use with authentication against SMTP servers.

echo -n "Email (shown): "
read email
echo -n "Password (hidden): "
read -s password
echo

TEXT="\0$email\0$password"

echo -ne $TEXT | base64

Make it executable and run it as follows:

chmod +x authentication.sh
./authentication.sh

When prompted, provide your e-mail address and password. This will look something like:

Email (shown): [email protected]
Password (hidden): 
AGJvYkBnbWFpbC5jb20AYm9iaXN0aGViZXN0cGVyc29uZXZlcg==

Copy the last line (AGJ...==), as this will be used for authentication.

Notification

Save the following expect script as notify.sh (note the first line refers to the expect program):

#!/usr/bin/expect

set address "[lindex $argv 0]"
set subject "[lindex $argv 1]"
set ts_date "[lindex $argv 2]"
set ts_time "[lindex $argv 3]"

set timeout 10
spawn openssl s_client -connect smtp.gmail.com:465 -crlf -ign_eof 

expect "220" {
  send "EHLO localhost\n"

  expect "250" {
    send "AUTH PLAIN YOUR_AUTHENTICATION_CODE\n"

    expect "235" {
      send "MAIL FROM: <YOUR_EMAIL_ADDRESS>\n"

      expect "250" {
        send "RCPT TO: <$address>\n"

        expect "250" {
          send "DATA\n"

          expect "354" {
            send "Subject: $subject\n\n"
            send "Email sent on $ts_date at $ts_time.\n"
            send "\n.\n"

            expect "250" {
                send "quit\n"
            }
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

Make the following changes:

  1. Paste over YOUR_AUTHENTICATION_CODE with the authentication code generated by the authentication script.
  2. Change YOUR_EMAIL_ADDRESS with the e-mail address used to generate the authentication code.
  3. Save the file.

For example (note the angle brackets are retained for the e-mail address):

send "AUTH PLAIN AGJvYkBnbWFpbC5jb20AYm9iaXN0aGViZXN0cGVyc29uZXZlcg==\n"
send "MAIL FROM: <[email protected]>\n"

Lastly, make the notify script executable as follows:

chmod +x notify.sh

Send E-mail

Send an e-mail from the command line as follows:

./notify.sh [email protected] "Command Line" "March 14" "15:52"

How to get the correct range to set the value to a cell?

Use setValue method of Range class to set the value of particular cell.

function storeValue() {
  var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
  // ss is now the spreadsheet the script is associated with
  var sheet = ss.getSheets()[0]; // sheets are counted starting from 0
  // sheet is the first worksheet in the spreadsheet
  var cell = sheet.getRange("B2"); 
  cell.setValue(100);
}

You can also select a cell using row and column numbers.

var cell = sheet.getRange(2, 3); // here cell is C2

It's also possible to set value of multiple cells at once.

var values = [
  ["2.000", "1,000,000", "$2.99"]
];

var range = sheet.getRange("B2:D2");
range.setValues(values);

Pythonic way to print list items

Expanding @lucasg's answer (inspired by the comment it received):

To get a formatted list output, you can do something along these lines:

l = [1,2,5]
print ", ".join('%02d'%x for x in l)

01, 02, 05

Now the ", " provides the separator (only between items, not at the end) and the formatting string '02d'combined with %x gives a formatted string for each item x - in this case, formatted as an integer with two digits, left-filled with zeros.

Finding the average of an array using JS

There's no built in function, but you can use this to get the sum,

Array.prototype.sum = function() {
    return this.reduce(function(a,b){return a+b;});
};

then divide by the arrays length, e.g.:

var arr = [1,2,3,4,5]
console.log(arr.sum() / arr.length)

How to print the current Stack Trace in .NET without any exception?

   private void ExceptionTest()
    {
        try
        {
            int j = 0;
            int i = 5;
            i = 1 / j;
        }
        catch (Exception ex)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Error: " + ex.Message);
            var stList = ex.StackTrace.ToString().Split('\\');
            Console.WriteLine("Exception occurred at " + stList[stList.Count() - 1]);
        }
    }

Seems to work for me

Escaping a forward slash in a regular expression

What context/language? Some languages use / as the pattern delimiter, so yes, you need to escape it, depending on which language/context. You escape it by putting a backward slash in front of it: \/ For some languages (like PHP) you can use other characters as the delimiter and therefore you don't need to escape it. But AFAIK in all languages, the only special significance the / has is it may be the designated pattern delimiter.

Java regex to extract text between tags

You're on the right track. Now you just need to extract the desired group, as follows:

final Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile("<tag>(.+?)</tag>", Pattern.DOTALL);
final Matcher matcher = pattern.matcher("<tag>String I want to extract</tag>");
matcher.find();
System.out.println(matcher.group(1)); // Prints String I want to extract

If you want to extract multiple hits, try this:

public static void main(String[] args) {
    final String str = "<tag>apple</tag><b>hello</b><tag>orange</tag><tag>pear</tag>";
    System.out.println(Arrays.toString(getTagValues(str).toArray())); // Prints [apple, orange, pear]
}

private static final Pattern TAG_REGEX = Pattern.compile("<tag>(.+?)</tag>", Pattern.DOTALL);

private static List<String> getTagValues(final String str) {
    final List<String> tagValues = new ArrayList<String>();
    final Matcher matcher = TAG_REGEX.matcher(str);
    while (matcher.find()) {
        tagValues.add(matcher.group(1));
    }
    return tagValues;
}

However, I agree that regular expressions are not the best answer here. I'd use XPath to find elements I'm interested in. See The Java XPath API for more info.

NumPy array is not JSON serializable

This is not supported by default, but you can make it work quite easily! There are several things you'll want to encode if you want the exact same data back:

  • The data itself, which you can get with obj.tolist() as @travelingbones mentioned. Sometimes this may be good enough.
  • The data type. I feel this is important in quite some cases.
  • The dimension (not necessarily 2D), which could be derived from the above if you assume the input is indeed always a 'rectangular' grid.
  • The memory order (row- or column-major). This doesn't often matter, but sometimes it does (e.g. performance), so why not save everything?

Furthermore, your numpy array could part of your data structure, e.g. you have a list with some matrices inside. For that you could use a custom encoder which basically does the above.

This should be enough to implement a solution. Or you could use json-tricks which does just this (and supports various other types) (disclaimer: I made it).

pip install json-tricks

Then

data = [
    arange(0, 10, 1, dtype=int).reshape((2, 5)),
    datetime(year=2017, month=1, day=19, hour=23, minute=00, second=00),
    1 + 2j,
    Decimal(42),
    Fraction(1, 3),
    MyTestCls(s='ub', dct={'7': 7}),  # see later
    set(range(7)),
]
# Encode with metadata to preserve types when decoding
print(dumps(data))

Making a Bootstrap table column fit to content

Tested on Bootstrap 4.5 and 5.0

None of the solution works for me. The td last column still takes the full width. So here's the solution works.

Add table-fit to your table

table.table-fit {
    width: auto !important;
    table-layout: auto !important;
}
table.table-fit thead th, table.table-fit tfoot th {
    width: auto !important;
}
table.table-fit tbody td, table.table-fit tfoot td {
    width: auto !important;
}

Here's the one for sass uses.

@mixin width {
    width: auto !important;
}

table {
    &.table-fit {
        @include width;
        table-layout: auto !important;
        thead th, tfoot th  {
            @include width;
        }
        tbody td, tfoot td {
            @include width;
        }
    }
}

How do servlets work? Instantiation, sessions, shared variables and multithreading

When the servlet container (like Apache Tomcat) starts up, it will read from the web.xml file (only one per application) if anything goes wrong or shows up an error at container side console, otherwise, it will deploy and load all web applications by using web.xml (so named it as deployment descriptor).

During instantiation phase of the servlet, servlet instance is ready but it cannot serve the client request because it is missing with two pieces of information:
1: context information
2: initial configuration information

Servlet engine creates servletConfig interface object encapsulating the above missing information into it servlet engine calls init() of the servlet by supplying servletConfig object references as an argument. Once init() is completely executed servlet is ready to serve the client request.

Q) In the lifetime of servlet how many times instantiation and initialization happens ??

A)only once (for every client request a new thread is created) only one instance of the servlet serves any number of the client request ie, after serving one client request server does not die. It waits for other client requests ie what CGI (for every client request a new process is created) limitation is overcome with the servlet (internally servlet engine creates the thread).

Q)How session concept works?

A)whenever getSession() is called on HttpServletRequest object

Step 1: request object is evaluated for incoming session ID.

Step 2: if ID not available a brand new HttpSession object is created and its corresponding session ID is generated (ie of HashTable) session ID is stored into httpservlet response object and the reference of HttpSession object is returned to the servlet (doGet/doPost).

Step 3: if ID available brand new session object is not created session ID is picked up from the request object search is made in the collection of sessions by using session ID as the key.

Once the search is successful session ID is stored into HttpServletResponse and the existing session object references are returned to the doGet() or doPost() of UserDefineservlet.

Note:

1)when control leaves from servlet code to client don't forget that session object is being held by servlet container ie, the servlet engine

2)multithreading is left to servlet developers people for implementing ie., handle the multiple requests of client nothing to bother about multithread code

Inshort form:

A servlet is created when the application starts (it is deployed on the servlet container) or when it is first accessed (depending on the load-on-startup setting) when the servlet is instantiated, the init() method of the servlet is called then the servlet (its one and only instance) handles all requests (its service() method being called by multiple threads). That's why it is not advisable to have any synchronization in it, and you should avoid instance variables of the servlet when the application is undeployed (the servlet container stops), the destroy() method is called.

What are the most common font-sizes for H1-H6 tags

Headings are normally bold-faced; that has been turned off for this demonstration of size correspondence. MSIE and Opera interpret these sizes the same, but note that Gecko browsers and Chrome interpret Heading 6 as 11 pixels instead of 10 pixels/font size 1, and Heading 3 as 19 pixels instead of 18 pixels/font size 4 (though it's difficult to tell the difference even in a direct comparison and impossible in use). It seems Gecko also limits text to no smaller than 10 pixels.

User Control - Custom Properties

It is very simple, just add a property:

public string Value {
  get { return textBox1.Text; }
  set { textBox1.Text = value; }
}

Using the Text property is a bit trickier, the UserControl class intentionally hides it. You'll need to override the attributes to put it back in working order:

[Browsable(true), EditorBrowsable(EditorBrowsableState.Always), Bindable(true)]
[DesignerSerializationVisibility(DesignerSerializationVisibility.Visible)]
public override string Text {
  get { return textBox1.Text; }
  set { textBox1.Text = value; }
}

How to get all keys with their values in redis

Tried the given example, but over VPN and with 400k+ keys it was too slow for me. Also it did not give me the key objects.

I wrote a small Python called tool redis-mass-get to combine KEYS and MGET requests against Redis:

# installation:
pip install redis-mass-get

# pipeline example CSV:
redis-mass-get -f csv -och redis://my.redis.url product:* | less

# write to json-file example with progress indicator:
redis-mass-get -d results.json -jd redis://my.redis.url product:*

It supports JSON, CSV and TXT output to file or stdout for usage in pipes. More info can be found at: Reading multiple key/values from Redis.

How to disable phone number linking in Mobile Safari?

Add this, I think it is what you're looking for:

<meta name = "format-detection" content = "telephone=no">

Auto start print html page using javascript

For me, adding <script>window.print();</script> to the end of the page worked.


I didn't need the type="text/javascript" attribute, or even for the page to be wrapped in a <body> tag. However, all of my previous attempts to intuitively use the answers suggested here, of just writing window.onload=window.print or longer versions such as window.onload=()=>window.print(); did not work, and of course calling print on the newly created window does not wait for the contents to load.

How to redirect and append both stdout and stderr to a file with Bash?

Try this

You_command 1>output.log  2>&1

Your usage of &>x.file does work in bash4. sorry for that : (

Here comes some additional tips.

0, 1, 2...9 are file descriptors in bash.

0 stands for stdin, 1 stands for stdout, 2 stands for stderror. 3~9 is spare for any other temporary usage.

Any file descriptor can be redirected to other file descriptor or file by using operator > or >>(append).

Usage: <file_descriptor> > <filename | &file_descriptor>

Please reference to http://www.tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/io-redirection.html

How to pass a textbox value from view to a controller in MVC 4?

You can use simple form:

@using(Html.BeginForm("Update", "Shopping"))
{
    <input type="text" id="ss" name="qty" value="@item.Quantity"/>
    ...
    <input type="submit" value="Update" />
}

And add here attribute:

[HttpPost]
public ActionResult Update(string id, string productid, int qty, decimal unitrate)

XPath: difference between dot and text()

There is a difference between . and text(), but this difference might not surface because of your input document.

If your input document looked like (the simplest document one can imagine given your XPath expressions)

Example 1

<html>
  <a>Ask Question</a>
</html>

Then //a[text()="Ask Question"] and //a[.="Ask Question"] indeed return exactly the same result. But consider a different input document that looks like

Example 2

<html>
  <a>Ask Question<other/>
  </a>
</html>

where the a element also has a child element other that follows immediately after "Ask Question". Given this second input document, //a[text()="Ask Question"] still returns the a element, while //a[.="Ask Question"] does not return anything!


This is because the meaning of the two predicates (everything between [ and ]) is different. [text()="Ask Question"] actually means: return true if any of the text nodes of an element contains exactly the text "Ask Question". On the other hand, [.="Ask Question"] means: return true if the string value of an element is identical to "Ask Question".

In the XPath model, text inside XML elements can be partitioned into a number of text nodes if other elements interfere with the text, as in Example 2 above. There, the other element is between "Ask Question" and a newline character that also counts as text content.

To make an even clearer example, consider as an input document:

Example 3

<a>Ask Question<other/>more text</a>

Here, the a element actually contains two text nodes, "Ask Question" and "more text", since both are direct children of a. You can test this by running //a/text() on this document, which will return (individual results separated by ----):

Ask Question
-----------------------
more text

So, in such a scenario, text() returns a set of individual nodes, while . in a predicate evaluates to the string concatenation of all text nodes. Again, you can test this claim with the path expression //a[.='Ask Questionmore text'] which will successfully return the a element.


Finally, keep in mind that some XPath functions can only take one single string as an input. As LarsH has pointed out in the comments, if such an XPath function (e.g. contains()) is given a sequence of nodes, it will only process the first node and silently ignore the rest.

What's the best practice for primary keys in tables?

I follow a few rules:

  1. Primary keys should be as small as necessary. Prefer a numeric type because numeric types are stored in a much more compact format than character formats. This is because most primary keys will be foreign keys in another table as well as used in multiple indexes. The smaller your key, the smaller the index, the less pages in the cache you will use.
  2. Primary keys should never change. Updating a primary key should always be out of the question. This is because it is most likely to be used in multiple indexes and used as a foreign key. Updating a single primary key could cause of ripple effect of changes.
  3. Do NOT use "your problem primary key" as your logic model primary key. For example passport number, social security number, or employee contract number as these "primary key" can change for real world situations.

On surrogate vs natural key, I refer to the rules above. If the natural key is small and will never change it can be used as a primary key. If the natural key is large or likely to change I use surrogate keys. If there is no primary key I still make a surrogate key because experience shows you will always add tables to your schema and wish you'd put a primary key in place.

Angularjs $q.all

The issue seems to be that you are adding the deffered.promise when deffered is itself the promise you should be adding:

Try changing to promises.push(deffered); so you don't add the unwrapped promise to the array.

 UploadService.uploadQuestion = function(questions){

            var promises = [];

            for(var i = 0 ; i < questions.length ; i++){

                var deffered  = $q.defer();
                var question  = questions[i]; 

                $http({

                    url   : 'upload/question',
                    method: 'POST',
                    data  : question
                }).
                success(function(data){
                    deffered.resolve(data);
                }).
                error(function(error){
                    deffered.reject();
                });

                promises.push(deffered);
            }

            return $q.all(promises);
        }

Spring application context external properties?

You can try something like this:

<context:property-placeholder 
        location="${ext.properties.dir:classpath:}/servlet.properties" />

And define ext.properties.dir property in your application server / jvm, otherwise the default properties location "classpath:/" (i.e., classes dir of .jar or .war) would be used:

-Dext.properties.dir=file:/usr/local/etc/

BTW, very useful blog post.
