How to dynamically create columns in datatable and assign values to it?

What have you tried, what was the problem?

Creating DataColumns and add values to a DataTable is straight forward:

Dim dt = New DataTable()
Dim dcID = New DataColumn("ID", GetType(Int32))
Dim dcName = New DataColumn("Name", GetType(String))
dt.Columns.Add(dcID)
dt.Columns.Add(dcName)
For i = 1 To 1000
    dt.Rows.Add(i, "Row #" & i)
Next

Edit:

If you want to read a xml file and load a DataTable from it, you can use DataTable.ReadXml.

How to open child forms positioned within MDI parent in VB.NET?

See this page for the solution! https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/7aw8zc76(v=vs.110).aspx

I was able to implement the Child form inside the parent.

In the Example below Form2 should change to the name of your child form. NewMDIChild.MdiParent=me is the main form since the control that opens (shows) the child form is the parent or Me.

NewMDIChild.Show() is your child form since you associated your child form with Dim NewMDIChild As New Form2()

Protected Sub MDIChildNew_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MenuItem2.Click
   Dim NewMDIChild As New Form2()
   'Set the Parent Form of the Child window.
   NewMDIChild.MdiParent = Me
   'Display the new form.
   NewMDIChild.Show()
End Sub

Simple and it works.

How to get a tab character?

Try  

as per the docs :

The character entities   and   denote an en space and an em space respectively, where an en space is half the point size and an em space is equal to the point size of the current font. For fixed pitch fonts, the user agent can treat the en space as being equivalent to A space character, and the em space as being equuivalent to two space characters.

Ruby: Calling class method from instance

To access a class method inside a instance method, do the following:

self.class.default_make

Here is an alternative solution for your problem:

class Truck

  attr_accessor :make, :year

  def self.default_make
    "Toyota"
  end

  def make
    @make || self.class.default_make
  end

  def initialize(make=nil, year=nil)
    self.year, self.make = year, make
  end
end

Now let's use our class:

t = Truck.new("Honda", 2000)
t.make
# => "Honda"
t.year
# => "2000"

t = Truck.new
t.make
# => "Toyota"
t.year
# => nil

OWIN Security - How to Implement OAuth2 Refresh Tokens

Freddy's answer helped me a lot to get this working. For the sake of completeness here's how you could implement hashing of the token:

private string ComputeHash(Guid input)
{
    byte[] source = input.ToByteArray();

    var encoder = new SHA256Managed();
    byte[] encoded = encoder.ComputeHash(source);

    return Convert.ToBase64String(encoded);
}

In CreateAsync:

var guid = Guid.NewGuid();
...
_refreshTokens.TryAdd(ComputeHash(guid), refreshTokenTicket);
context.SetToken(guid.ToString());

ReceiveAsync:

public async Task ReceiveAsync(AuthenticationTokenReceiveContext context)
{
    Guid token;

    if (Guid.TryParse(context.Token, out token))
    {
        AuthenticationTicket ticket;

        if (_refreshTokens.TryRemove(ComputeHash(token), out ticket))
        {
            context.SetTicket(ticket);
        }
    }
}

Find (and kill) process locking port 3000 on Mac

Possible ways to achieve this:

top

The top command is the traditional way to view your system’s resource usage and see the processes that are taking up the most system resources. Top displays a list of processes, with the ones using the most CPU at the top.

ps

The ps command lists running processes. The following command lists all processes running on your system:

ps -A

You could also pipe the output through grep to search for a specific process without using any other commands. The following command would search for the Firefox process:

ps -A | grep firefox

The most common way of passing signals to a program is with the kill command.

kill PID_of_target_process

lsof

List of all open files and the processes that opened them.

lsof -i -P | grep -i "listen"
kill -9 PID

or

 lsof -i tcp:3000 

How to run an android app in background?

You can probably start a Service here if you want your Application to run in Background. This is what Service in Android are used for - running in background and doing longtime operations.

UDPATE

You can use START_STICKY to make your Service running continuously.

@Override
public int onStartCommand(Intent intent, int flags, int startId) {
    handleCommand(intent);
    // We want this service to continue running until it is explicitly
    // stopped, so return sticky.
    return START_STICKY;
}

how to get file path from sd card in android

As some people indicated, the officially accepted answer does not quite return the external removable SD card. And i ran upon the following thread that proposes a method I've tested on some Android devices and seems to work reliably, so i thought of re-sharing here as i don't see it in the other responses:

http://forums.androidcentral.com/samsung-galaxy-s7/668364-whats-external-sdcard-path.html

Kudos to paresh996 for coming up with the answer itself, and i can attest I've tried on Samsung S7 and S7edge and seems to work.

Now, i needed a method that returned a valid path where to read files, and that considered the fact that there might not be an external SD, in which case the internal storage should be returned, so i modified the code from paresh996 to this :

File getStoragePath() {
    String removableStoragePath;
    File fileList[] = new File("/storage/").listFiles();
    for (File file : fileList) {
       if(!file.getAbsolutePath().equalsIgnoreCase(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getAbsolutePath()) && file.isDirectory() && file.canRead()) {
            return file;
        }
    }
    return Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory();
}

How do I fix the error 'Named Pipes Provider, error 40 - Could not open a connection to' SQL Server'?

TL;DR; Your SQL Server instance is using dynamic ports which is not working. Force SQL Server to use static port # 1433.

Complete Details: First of all this problem is more likely if you've a mix of default and named instance or named instances only(which was my case).

Key concept: Each instance of Microsoft SQL Server installed on a computer uses a different port to listen for incoming connection requests. Default instance of SQL Server uses port # 1433. As you install named instances then they will start using dynamic ports which is decided at the time of start-up of Windows service corresponding to named SQL Server instance.

My code was failing (with error code 40) to connect to the only named SQL Server instance that I had on my VM. You can try below possible solutions:

Solution # 1: Client code trying to connect to SQL Server instance takes help from SQL Server browser service to figure out port number at which your named instance is listening for incoming connections. Make sure SQL browser service is running on your computer.

Solution # 2: Check the port # (in yellow color) your named SQL Server instance is using from SQL Server configuration manager as shown in the snapshot below:

enter image description here

Use that port number explicitly in your connection string or with sqlcmd shown below:

sqlcmd -s mymachinename,11380 -i deleteDB.sql -o SQLDelete.txt

Solution # 3: Force your named instance to use port # 1433 which is used by default instance. Remember this will work only if you don't have any default SQL Server instance on your computer as the default SQL Server instance would be using using port # 1433 already. Same port number can't be uses by two different Windows services.

Mark TCP Dynamic ports field to blank and TCP Port field to 1433.

enter image description here

Change the port number in your connection string as shown below:

sqlcmd -s mymachinename\instanceName -i deleteDB.sql -o SQLDelete.txt

OR

sqlcmd -s mymachinename,1433 -i deleteDB.sql -o SQLDelete.txt

Note: Every change in TCP/IP settings requires corresponding Windows service restart.

Interestingly enough after resolving the error when I went back to dynamic port setting to reproduce the same error then it didn't happen. Not sure why.

Please read below interesting threads to know more about dynamic ports of SQL Server:

How to load all modules in a folder?

Update in 2017: you probably want to use importlib instead.

Make the Foo directory a package by adding an __init__.py. In that __init__.py add:

import bar
import eggs
import spam

Since you want it dynamic (which may or may not be a good idea), list all py-files with list dir and import them with something like this:

import os
for module in os.listdir(os.path.dirname(__file__)):
    if module == '__init__.py' or module[-3:] != '.py':
        continue
    __import__(module[:-3], locals(), globals())
del module

Then, from your code do this:

import Foo

You can now access the modules with

Foo.bar
Foo.eggs
Foo.spam

etc. from Foo import * is not a good idea for several reasons, including name clashes and making it hard to analyze the code.

Using grep and sed to find and replace a string

How to get filename without extension from file path in Ruby

If you have access to ENV variables, scan combined with this little regex (which finds the last but one word, a dot, then the last word of the string) will put the file's name into 'filename':

filename = ENV['SCRIPT_NAME'].scan(/\w+\.\w+$/)

Obviously, you can use scan and the regex on any path name that includes the filename, and __FILE__ is the obvious choice:

__FILE__.scan(/\w+\.\w+$/)

Make Vim show ALL white spaces as a character

you can also highlight the spaces (replacing the spaces with a block):

:%s/ /¦/g

Invalid shorthand property initializer

In options object you have used "=" sign to assign value to port but we have to use ":" to assign values to properties in object when using object literal to create an object i.e."{}" ,these curly brackets. Even when you use function expression or create an object inside object you have to use ":" sign. for e.g.:

    var rishabh = {
        class:"final year",
        roll:123,
        percent: function(marks1, marks2, marks3){
                      total = marks1 + marks2 + marks3;
                      this.percentage = total/3 }
                    };

john.percent(85,89,95);
console.log(rishabh.percentage);

here we have to use commas "," after each property. but you can use another style to create and initialize an object.

var john = new Object():
john.father = "raja";  //1st way to assign using dot operator
john["mother"] = "rani";// 2nd way to assign using brackets and key must be string

Pass a javascript variable value into input type hidden value

You could do that like this:

     {

    document.getElementById('myvalue').value = product(a,b);
 </script>

 <input type="hidden" value="THE OUTPUT OF PRODUCT FUNCTION" id="myvalue">

Random element from string array

Just store the index generated in a variable, and then access the array using this varaible:

int idx = new Random().nextInt(fruits.length);
String random = (fruits[idx]);

P.S. I usually don't like generating new Random object per randoization - I prefer using a single Random in the program - and re-use it. It allows me to easily reproduce a problematic sequence if I later find any bug in the program.

According to this approach, I will have some variable Random r somewhere, and I will just use:

int idx = r.nextInt(fruits.length)

However, your approach is OK as well, but you might have hard time reproducing a specific sequence if you need to later on.

Use -notlike to filter out multiple strings in PowerShell

don't use -notLike, -notMatch with Regular-Expression works in one line:

Get-MailBoxPermission -id newsletter | ? {$_.User -NotMatch "NT-AUTORIT.*|.*-Admins|.*Administrators|.*Manage.*"}

String is immutable. What exactly is the meaning?

I think the following code clears the difference:

String A = new String("Venugopal");
String B = A;

A = A +"mitul";

System.out.println("A is " + A);
System.out.println("B is " + B);

StringBuffer SA = new StringBuffer("Venugopal");
StringBuffer SB = SA;

SA = SA.append("mitul");

System.out.println("SA is " + SA);
System.out.println("SB is " + SB);

Is there a decent wait function in C++?

Syntax:

void sleep(unsigned seconds);

sleep() suspends execution for an interval (seconds). With a call to sleep, the current program is suspended from execution for the number of seconds specified by the argument seconds. The interval is accurate only to the nearest hundredth of a second or to the accuracy of the operating system clock, whichever is less accurate.

This example should make it clear:

#include <dos.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <conio.h>

int main()
{
   printf("Message 1\n");
   sleep(2); //Parameter in sleep is in seconds
   printf("Message 2 a two seconds after Message 1");
   return 0;
}

Remember you have to #include dos.h

EDIT:

You could also use winAPI.

VOID WINAPI Sleep(
DWORD dwMilliseconds
);

Sleep Function(Windows)

Just a note,the parameter in the function provided by winapi is in milliseconds ,so the sleep line at the code snippet above would look like this "Sleep(2000);"

Rename a file in C#

In the File.Move method, this won't overwrite the file if it is already exists. And it will throw an exception.

So we need to check whether the file exists or not.

/* Delete the file if exists, else no exception thrown. */

File.Delete(newFileName); // Delete the existing file if exists
File.Move(oldFileName,newFileName); // Rename the oldFileName into newFileName

Or surround it with a try catch to avoid an exception.

What does 'URI has an authority component' mean?

After trying a skeleton project called "jsf-blank", which did not demonstrate this problem with xhtml files; I concluded that there was an unknown problem in my project. My solution may not have been too elegant, but it saved time. I backed up the code and other files I'd already developed, deleted the project, and started over - recreated the project. So far, I've added back most of the files and it looks pretty good.

How do I set up access control in SVN?

Apache Subversion supports path-based authorization that helps you configure granular permissions for user and group accounts on paths in your repositories (files or directories). Path-based authorization supports three access levels - No Access, Read Only and Read / Write.

Path-based authorization permissions are stored in per-repository or per-server authorization files with a special syntax. Here is an example from SVNBook:

[calc:/branches/calc/bug-142]
harry = rw
sally = r

When you require a complex permission structure with many paths and accounts you can benefit from a GUI-based permission management tools provided by VisualSVN Server:

  • Server administrators can manage user and group permissions via the VisualSVN Server Manager console or PowerShell,
  • Non-admin users can manage permissions via RepoCfg.

   //OR
   //IN CASE CURSOR IS TO BE USED, STORE IT IN DATATABLE
   con.Open();
   OracleDataAdapter da = new OracleDataAdapter(cmd);
   da.Fill(dt);

Resizing a button

Another alternative is that you are allowed to have multiple classes in a tag. Consider:

 <div class="button big">This is a big button</div>
 <div class="button small">This is a small button</div>

And the CSS:

 .button {
     /* all your common button styles */
 }

 .big {
     height: 60px;
     width: 100px;
 }
 .small {
     height: 40px;
     width: 70px;
 }

and so on.

CSS Input with width: 100% goes outside parent's bound

I tried these solutions but never got a conclusive result. In the end I used proper semantic markup with a fieldset. It saved having to add any width calculations and any box-sizing.

It also allows you to set the form width as you require and the inputs remain within the padding you need for your edges.

In this example I have put a border on the form and fieldset and an opaque background on the legend and fieldset so you can see how they overlap and sit with each other.

<html>
  <head>
  <style>
    form {
      width: 300px;
      margin: 0 auto;
      border: 1px solid;
    }
    fieldset {
      border: 0;
      margin: 0;
      padding: 0 20px 10px;
      border: 1px solid blue;
      background: rgba(0,0,0,.2);
    }
    legend {
      background: rgba(0,0,0,.2);
      width: 100%;
      margin: 0 -20px;
      padding: 2px 20px;
      color: $col1;
      border: 0;
    }
    input[type="email"],
    input[type="password"],
    button {
      width: 100%;
      margin: 0 0 10px;
      padding: 0 10px;
    }
    input[type="email"],
    input[type="password"] {
      line-height: 22px;
      font-size: 16px;
    }
    button {
    line-height: 26px;
    font-size: 20px;
    }
  </style>

function ajax_download(url, data, input_name) {
    var $iframe,
        iframe_doc,
        iframe_html;

    if (($iframe = $('#download_iframe')).length === 0) {
        $iframe = $("<iframe id='download_iframe'" +
                    " style='display: none' src='about:blank'></iframe>"
                   ).appendTo("body");
    }

    iframe_doc = $iframe[0].contentWindow || $iframe[0].contentDocument;
    if (iframe_doc.document) {
        iframe_doc = iframe_doc.document;
    }

    iframe_html = "<html><head></head><body><form method='POST' action='" +
                  url +"'>" +
                  "<input type=hidden name='" + input_name + "' value='" +
                  JSON.stringify(data) +"'/></form>" +
                  "</body></html>";

    iframe_doc.open();
    iframe_doc.write(iframe_html);
    $(iframe_doc).find('form').submit();

Demo with click event:

$('#someid').on('click', function() {
    ajax_download('/download.action', {'para1': 1, 'para2': 2}, 'dataname');
});

Is there a CSS selector for the first direct child only?

CSS is called Cascading Style Sheets because the rules are inherited. Using the following selector, will select just the direct child of the parent, but its rules will be inherited by that div's children divs:

div.section > div { color: red }

Now, both that div and its children will be red. You need to cancel out whatever you set on the parent if you don't want it to inherit:

div.section > div { color: red }
div.section > div div { color: black }

Now only that single div that is a direct child of div.section will be red, but its children divs will still be black.

How to prevent a background process from being stopped after closing SSH client in Linux

When the session is closed the process receives the SIGHUP signal which it is apparently not catching. You can use the nohup command when launching the process or the bash built-in command disown -h after starting the process to prevent this from happening:

> help disown
disown: disown [-h] [-ar] [jobspec ...]
     By default, removes each JOBSPEC argument from the table of active jobs.
    If the -h option is given, the job is not removed from the table, but is
    marked so that SIGHUP is not sent to the job if the shell receives a
    SIGHUP.  The -a option, when JOBSPEC is not supplied, means to remove all
    jobs from the job table; the -r option means to remove only running jobs.

In HTML5, should the main navigation be inside or outside the <header> element?

To expand on what @JoshuaMaddox said, in the MDN Learning Area, under the "Introduction to HTML" section, the Document and website structure sub-section says (bold/emphasis is by me):

Header

Usually a big strip across the top with a big heading and/or logo. This is where the main common information about a website usually stays from one webpage to another.

Navigation bar

Links to the site's main sections; usually represented by menu buttons, links, or tabs. Like the header, this content usually remains consistent from one webpage to another — having an inconsistent navigation on your website will just lead to confused, frustrated users. Many web designers consider the navigation bar to be part of the header rather than a individual component, but that's not a requirement; in fact some also argue that having the two separate is better for accessibility, as screen readers can read the two features better if they are separate.

Using Javascript: How to create a 'Go Back' link that takes the user to a link if there's no history for the tab or window?

echo "<p><a href=\"javascript:history.go(-1)\" title=\"Return to previous page\">&laquo;Go back</a></p>";

Will go back one page.

echo "<p><a href=\"javascript:history.go(-2)\" title=\"Return to previous page\">&laquo;Go back</a></p>";

Will go back two pages.

Filtering collections in C#

If your list is very big and you are filtering repeatedly - you can sort the original list on the filter attribute, binary search to find the start and end points.

Initial time O(n*log(n)) then O(log(n)).

Standard filtering will take O(n) each time.

What are the lengths of Location Coordinates, latitude and longitude?

I am aware there are already several answers, but I added this, as this adds substantial information about the decimal places and hence the asked maximum length.

The length of latitude and langitude depend on precision. The absolute maximum length for each is:

  • Latitude: 12 characters (example: -90.00000001)
  • Longitude: 13 characters (example: -180.00000001)

For both holds: a maximum of 8 decial places is possible (though not commonly used).

Explanation for the dependency on precision:

Reference list item by index within Django template?

@jennifer06262016, you can definitely add another filter to return the objects inside a django Queryset.

@register.filter 
def get_item(Queryset):
    return Queryset.your_item_key

In that case, you would type something like this {{ Queryset|index:x|get_item }} into your template to access some dictionary object. It works for me.

PHP - syntax error, unexpected T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING

When you're working with strings in PHP you'll need to pay special attention to the formation, using " or '

$string = 'Hello, world!';
$string = "Hello, world!";

Both of these are valid, the following is not:

$string = "Hello, world';

You must also note that ' inside of a literal started with " will not end the string, and vice versa. So when you have a string which contains ', it is generally best practice to use double quotation marks.

$string = "It's ok here";

Escaping the string is also an option

$string = 'It\'s ok here too';

More information on this can be found within the documentation

Why do we need to use flatMap?

An Observable is an object that emits a stream of events: Next, Error and Completed.

When your function returns an Observable, it is not returning a stream, but an instance of Observable. The flatMap operator simply maps that instance to a stream.

That is the behaviour of flatMap when compared to map: Execute the given function and flatten the resulting object into a stream.

Get element type with jQuery

As Distdev alluded to, you still need to differentiate the input type. That is to say,

$(this).prev().prop('tagName');

will tell you input, but that doesn't differentiate between checkbox/text/radio. If it's an input, you can then use

$('#elementId').attr('type');

to tell you checkbox/text/radio, so you know what kind of control it is.

socket.shutdown vs socket.close

Isn't this code above wrong?

The close call directly after the shutdown call might make the kernel discard all outgoing buffers anyway.

Android - setOnClickListener vs OnClickListener vs View.OnClickListener

Imagine that we have 3 buttons for example

public class MainActivity extends ActionBarActivity {

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);


        // Capture our button from layout
        Button button = (Button)findViewById(R.id.corky);
        Button button2 = (Button)findViewById(R.id.corky2);
        Button button3 = (Button)findViewById(R.id.corky3);
        // Register the onClick listener with the implementation above
        button.setOnClickListener(mCorkyListener);
        button2.setOnClickListener(mCorkyListener);
        button3.setOnClickListener(mCorkyListener);

    }

    // Create an anonymous implementation of OnClickListener
    private View.OnClickListener mCorkyListener = new View.OnClickListener() {
        public void onClick(View v) {
            // do something when the button is clicked 
            // Yes we will handle click here but which button clicked??? We don't know

        }
    };

}

So what we will do?

public class MainActivity extends ActionBarActivity {

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);


        // Capture our button from layout
        Button button = (Button)findViewById(R.id.corky);
        Button button2 = (Button)findViewById(R.id.corky2);
        Button button3 = (Button)findViewById(R.id.corky3);
        // Register the onClick listener with the implementation above
        button.setOnClickListener(mCorkyListener);
        button2.setOnClickListener(mCorkyListener);
        button3.setOnClickListener(mCorkyListener);

    }

    // Create an anonymous implementation of OnClickListener
    private View.OnClickListener mCorkyListener = new View.OnClickListener() {
        public void onClick(View v) {
            // do something when the button is clicked
            // Yes we will handle click here but which button clicked??? We don't know

            // So we will make
            switch (v.getId() /*to get clicked view id**/) {
                case R.id.corky:

                    // do something when the corky is clicked

                    break;
                case R.id.corky2:

                    // do something when the corky2 is clicked

                    break;
                case R.id.corky3:

                    // do something when the corky3 is clicked

                    break;
                default:
                    break;
            }
        }
    };

}

Or we can do this:

public class MainActivity extends ActionBarActivity {

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);


        // Capture our button from layout
        Button button = (Button)findViewById(R.id.corky);
        Button button2 = (Button)findViewById(R.id.corky2);
        Button button3 = (Button)findViewById(R.id.corky3);
        // Register the onClick listener with the implementation above
        button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                // do something when the corky is clicked
            }
        });
        button2.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                // do something when the corky2 is clicked
            }
        });
        button3.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                // do something when the corky3 is clicked
            }
        });

    }

}

Or we can implement View.OnClickListener and i think it's the best way:

public class MainActivity extends ActionBarActivity implements View.OnClickListener {

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);


        // Capture our button from layout
        Button button = (Button)findViewById(R.id.corky);
        Button button2 = (Button)findViewById(R.id.corky2);
        Button button3 = (Button)findViewById(R.id.corky3);
        // Register the onClick listener with the implementation above
        button.setOnClickListener(this);
        button2.setOnClickListener(this);
        button3.setOnClickListener(this);

    }

    @Override
    public void onClick(View v) {
        // do something when the button is clicked
        // Yes we will handle click here but which button clicked??? We don't know

        // So we will make
        switch (v.getId() /*to get clicked view id**/) {
            case R.id.corky:

                // do something when the corky is clicked

                break;
            case R.id.corky2:

                // do something when the corky2 is clicked

                break;
            case R.id.corky3:

                // do something when the corky3 is clicked

                break;
            default:
                break;
        }
    }
}

Finally there is no real differences here Just "Way better than the other"

Append date to filename in linux

There's two problems here.

1. Get the date as a string

This is pretty easy. Just use the date command with the + option. We can use backticks to capture the value in a variable.

$ DATE=`date +%d-%m-%y` 

You can change the date format by using different % options as detailed on the date man page.

2. Split a file into name and extension.

This is a bit trickier. If we think they'll be only one . in the filename we can use cut with . as the delimiter.

$ NAME=`echo $FILE | cut -d. -f1
$ EXT=`echo $FILE | cut -d. -f2`

However, this won't work with multiple . in the file name. If we're using bash - which you probably are - we can use some bash magic that allows us to match patterns when we do variable expansion:

$ NAME=${FILE%.*}
$ EXT=${FILE#*.} 

Putting them together we get:

$ FILE=somefile.txt             
$ NAME=${FILE%.*}
$ EXT=${FILE#*.} 
$ DATE=`date +%d-%m-%y`         
$ NEWFILE=${NAME}_${DATE}.${EXT}
$ echo $NEWFILE                 
somefile_25-11-09.txt                         

And if we're less worried about readability we do all the work on one line (with a different date format):

$ FILE=somefile.txt  
$ FILE=${FILE%.*}_`date +%d%b%y`.${FILE#*.}
$ echo $FILE                                 
somefile_25Nov09.txt

How to copy marked text in notepad++

It's not possible with Notepad but HERE'S THE EASY SOLUTION:

You will need the freeware Expresso v3.1 http://www.ultrapico.com/ExpressoDownload.htm

I resorted to another piece of free software: Expresso by Ultrapico.

  1. Once installed go in the tab "Test Mode".
  2. Copy your REGEX into the "Regular expressions" pane.
  3. Paste your whole text to be searched into the "Sample text" pane of Expresso,

  4. Press the "Run match" button. Right click in the "Search results pane" and "Export to..." or "Copy matched text to clipboard".

About .bash_profile, .bashrc, and where should alias be written in?

From the bash manpage:

When bash is invoked as an interactive login shell, or as a non-interactive shell with the --login option, it first reads and executes commands from the file /etc/profile, if that file exists. After reading that file, it looks for ~/.bash_profile, ~/.bash_login, and ~/.profile, in that order, and reads and executes commands from the first one that exists and is readable. The --noprofile option may be used when the shell is started to inhibit this behavior.

When a login shell exits, bash reads and executes commands from the file ~/.bash_logout, if it exists.

When an interactive shell that is not a login shell is started, bash reads and executes commands from ~/.bashrc, if that file exists. This may be inhibited by using the --norc option. The --rcfile file option will force bash to read and execute commands from file instead of ~/.bashrc.

Thus, if you want to get the same behavior for both login shells and interactive non-login shells, you should put all of your commands in either .bashrc or .bash_profile, and then have the other file source the first one.

What is the difference between document.location.href and document.location?

document.location is deprecated in favor of window.location, which can be accessed by just location, since it's a global object.

The location object has multiple properties and methods. If you try to use it as a string then it acts like location.href.

read subprocess stdout line by line

Pythont 3.5 added the methods run() and call() to the subprocess module, both returning a CompletedProcess object. With this you are fine using proc.stdout.splitlines():

for line in proc.stdout.splitlines():
   print "stdout:", line

Session variables in ASP.NET MVC

If you are using asp.net mvc, here is a simple way to access the session.

From a Controller:

{Controller}.ControllerContext.HttpContext.Session["{name}"]

From a View:

<%=Session["{name}"] %>

This is definitely not the best way to access your session variables, but it is a direct route. So use it with caution (preferably during rapid prototyping), and use a Wrapper/Container and OnSessionStart when it becomes appropriate.

How to list imported modules?

import sys
sys.modules.keys()

An approximation of getting all imports for the current module only would be to inspect globals() for modules:

import types
def imports():
    for name, val in globals().items():
        if isinstance(val, types.ModuleType):
            yield val.__name__

This won't return local imports, or non-module imports like from x import y. Note that this returns val.__name__ so you get the original module name if you used import module as alias; yield name instead if you want the alias.

How to pass Multiple Parameters from ajax call to MVC Controller

I did that with helping from this question

jquery get querystring from URL

so let see how we will use this function

// Read a page's GET URL variables and return them as an associative array.
function getUrlVars()
{
    var vars = [], hash;
    var hashes = window.location.href.slice(window.location.href.indexOf('?') + 1).split('&');
    for(var i = 0; i < hashes.length; i++)
    {
        hash = hashes[i].split('=');
        vars.push(hash[0]);
        vars[hash[0]] = hash[1];
    }
    return vars;
}

and now just use it in Ajax call

"ajax": {
    url: '/Departments/GetAllDepartments/',                     
    type: 'GET',                       
    dataType: 'json',                       
    data: getUrlVars()// here is the tricky part
},

thats all, but if you want know how to use this function or not send all the query string parameters back to actual answer

Use CSS to remove the space between images

An easy way that is compatible pretty much everywhere is to set font-size: 0 on the container, provided you don't have any descendent text nodes you need to style (though it is trivial to override this where needed).

.nospace {
   font-size: 0;
}

jsFiddle.

You could also change from the default display: inline into block or inline-block. Be sure to use the workarounds required for <= IE7 (and possibly ancient Firefoxes) for inline-block to work.

How do I ignore an error on 'git pull' about my local changes would be overwritten by merge?

Here is my strategy to solve the problem.

Problem Statement

We need to make changes in more than 10 files. We tried PULL (git pull origin master), but Git shouted:

error: Your local changes to the following files would be overwritten by merge: Please, commit your changes or stash them before you can merge.

We tried to execute commit and then pull, but they didn't work either.

Solution

We were in the dirty stage actually, because the files were in the "Staging Area" a.k.a "Index Area" and some were in the "Head Area" a.k.a "local Git directory". And we wanted to pull the changes from the server.

Check this link for information about different stages of Git in a clear manner: GIT Stages

We followed the following steps

  • git stash (this made our working directory clean. Your changes are stored on the stack by Git).
  • git pull origin master (Pull the changes from the server)
  • git stash apply (Applied all the changes from stack)
  • git commit -m 'message' (Committed the changes)
  • git push origin master (Pushed the changes to the server)
  • git stash drop (Drop the stack)

Let's understand when and why you need stashing

If you are in the dirty state, means you are making changes in your files and then you are compelled, due to any reason, to pull or switch to another branch for some very urgent work, so at this point you can't pull or switch until you commit your change. The stash command is here as a helping hand.

From the book ProGIT, 2nd Edition:

Often, when you’ve been working on part of your project, things are in a messy state and you want to switch branches for a bit to work on something else. The problem is, you don’t want to do a commit of half-done work just so you can get back to this point later. The answer to this issue is the git stash command. Stashing takes the dirty state of your working directory – that is, your modified tracked files and staged changes – and saves it on a stack of unfinished changes that you can reapply at any time.

If not, add content root, and do similar things.

Logcat not displaying my log calls

I restarted the ADB service as well with "adb usb" and fixes the problem for me. In fact, only one of my activities didn't log anymore. All the others did log stuff. After restart adb everything works like a charm again. For the other people who're searching for another solution: adb kill-server, adb start-server in CLI will often fix your problem aswell.

Beginner Python: AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute

Consider:

class Bike(object):
    def __init__(self, name, weight, cost):
        self.name = name
        self.weight = weight
        self.cost = cost

bikes = {
    # Bike designed for children"
    "Trike": Bike("Trike", 20, 100),      # <--
    # Bike designed for everyone"
    "Kruzer": Bike("Kruzer", 50, 165),    # <--
    }

# Markup of 20% on all sales
margin = .2
# Revenue minus cost after sale
for bike in bikes.values():
    profit = bike.cost * margin
    print(profit)

Output:

33.0
20.0

The difference is that in your bikes dictionary, you're initializing the values as lists [...]. Instead, it looks like the rest of your code wants Bike instances. So create Bike instances: Bike(...).

As for your error

AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'cost'

this will occur when you try to call .cost on a list object. Pretty straightforward, but we can figure out what happened by looking at where you call .cost -- in this line:

profit = bike.cost * margin

This indicates that at least one bike (that is, a member of bikes.values() is a list). If you look at where you defined bikes you can see that the values were, in fact, lists. So this error makes sense.

But since your class has a cost attribute, it looked like you were trying to use Bike instances as values, so I made that little change:

[...] -> Bike(...)

and you're all set.

Unable to find the wrapper "https" - did you forget to enable it when you configured PHP?

I'm using opsenSUSE Leap, and I had the same issue -- it means there's no support for OpenSSL. This is how I resolved it:

  1. Open YaST.
  2. Go to Software Management.
  3. In the search box on the left pane, enter 'php5-openssl' and press the return key.
  4. Click the checkbox next to 'php5-openssl' in the right pane to select it, and click 'Accept' (This adds OpenSSL support).
  5. Restart Apache: sudo service apache2 restart

That's it, you're done.

Javascript: How to pass a function with string parameters as a parameter to another function

Me, I'd do it something like this:

HTML:

onclick="myfunction({path:'/myController/myAction', ok:myfunctionOnOk, okArgs:['/myController2/myAction2','myParameter2'], cancel:myfunctionOnCancel, cancelArgs:['/myController3/myAction3','myParameter3']);"

JS:

function myfunction(params)
{
  var path = params.path;

  /* do stuff */

  // on ok condition 
  params.ok(params.okArgs);

  // on cancel condition
  params.cancel(params.cancelArgs);  
}

But then I'd also probable be binding a closure to a custom subscribed event. You need to add some detail to the question really, but being first-class functions are easily passable and getting params to them can be done any number of ways. I would avoid passing them as string labels though, the indirection is error prone.

How to solve Notice: Undefined index: id in C:\xampp\htdocs\invmgt\manufactured_goods\change.php on line 21

if you are getting id from url try

$id = (isset($_GET['id']) ? $_GET['id'] : '');

if getting from form you need to use POST method cause your form has method="post"

 $id = (isset($_POST['id']) ? $_POST['id'] : '');

For php notices use isset() or empty() to check values exist or not or initialize variable first with blank or a value

$id= '';

Avoiding "resource is out of sync with the filesystem"

If you are a regular Eclipse user than you might have got this error many times. The error simply says, “you’ve made changes in files in your workspace from outside eclipse”. The simplest solution would be to select the project and press F5 (Right click -> Refresh).

Ansible playbook shell output

If you need a specific exit status, Ansible provides a way to do that via callback plugins.

Example. It's a very good option if you need a 100% accurate exit status.

If not, you can always use the Debug Module, which is the standard for this cases of use.

How to check if a radiobutton is checked in a radiogroup in Android?

Use the isChecked() function for every radioButton you have to check.

RadioButton maleRadioButton, femaleRadioButton;

maleRadioButton = (RadioButton) findViewById(R.id.maleRadioButton);
femaleRadioButton = (RadioButton) findViewById(R.id.femaleRadioButton);

Then use the result for your if/else case consideration.

if (maleRadioButton.isChecked() || femaleRadioButton.isChecked()) {
     Log.d("QAOD", "Gender is Selected");
} else {
    Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Please select Gender", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
    Log.d("QAOD", "Gender is Null");
}

Just to add to other comments - it would be worth while to disable scrolling up whilst at the top of the page. If the user accidentally scrolls up whilst already at the top they would have to scroll down twice to start

  $("#upClick").on("click" ,function(){
     scrolled=scrolled-300;

difference between variables inside and outside of __init__()

classes are like blueprints to create objects. Let's make a metaphor with building a house. You have the blueprint of the house so you can build a house. You can build as many houses as your resources allow.

In this metaphor, the blueprint is the class and the house is the instantiation of the class, creating an object.

The houses have common attributes like having a roof, living room, etc. This is where you init method goes. It constructs the object (house) with the attributes you want.

Lets suppose you have:

`class house:`
`roof = True`
`def __init__(self, color):`
`self.wallcolor = color`

>> create little goldlock's house:

>> goldlock = house() #() invoke's class house, not function

>> goldlock.roof

>> True

all house's have roofs, now let's define goldlock's wall color to white:

>> goldlock.wallcolor = 'white'
>>goldlock.wallcolor
>> 'white'

Java 8 Streams: multiple filters vs. complex condition

This test shows that your second option can perform significantly better. Findings first, then the code:

two filters with predicates of form u -> exp1, list size 10000000, averaged over 100 runs: LongSummaryStatistics{count=100, sum=13315, min=117, average=133.150000, max=153}
one filter with predicate of form predOne.and(pred2), list size 10000000, averaged over 100 runs: LongSummaryStatistics{count=100, sum=10320, min=82, average=103.200000, max=127}

How do I force git to use LF instead of CR+LF under windows?

Context

If you

  1. want to force all users to have LF line endings for text files and
  2. you cannot ensure that all users change their git config,

you can do that starting with git 2.10. 2.10 or later is required, because 2.10 fixed the behavior of text=auto together with eol=lf. Source.

Solution

Put a .gitattributes file in the root of your git repository having following contents:

* text=auto eol=lf

Commit it.

Optional tweaks

You can also add an .editorconfig in the root of your repository to ensure that modern tooling creates new files with the desired line endings.

# EditorConfig is awesome: http://EditorConfig.org

# top-most EditorConfig file
root = true

# Unix-style newlines with a newline ending every file
[*]
end_of_line = lf
insert_final_newline = true

error: Your local changes to the following files would be overwritten by checkout

Your error appears when you have modified a file and the branch that you are switching to has changes for this file too (from latest merge point).

Your options, as I see it, are - commit, and then amend this commit with extra changes (you can modify commits in git, as long as they're not pushed); or - use stash:

git stash save your-file-name
git checkout master
# do whatever you had to do with master
git checkout staging
git stash pop

git stash save will create stash that contains your changes, but it isn't associated with any commit or even branch. git stash pop will apply latest stash entry to your current branch, restoring saved changes and removing it from stash.

Create numpy matrix filled with NaNs

I compared the suggested alternatives for speed and found that, for large enough vectors/matrices to fill, all alternatives except val * ones and array(n * [val]) are equally fast.

enter image description here


Code to reproduce the plot:

import numpy
import perfplot

val = 42.0


def fill(n):
    a = numpy.empty(n)
    a.fill(val)
    return a


def colon(n):
    a = numpy.empty(n)
    a[:] = val
    return a


def full(n):
    return numpy.full(n, val)


def ones_times(n):
    return val * numpy.ones(n)


def list(n):
    return numpy.array(n * [val])


perfplot.show(
    setup=lambda n: n,
    kernels=[fill, colon, full, ones_times, list],
    n_range=[2 ** k for k in range(20)],
    logx=True,
    logy=True,
    xlabel="len(a)",

    });

Excel CSV. file with more than 1,048,576 rows of data

I would suggest to load the .CSV file in MS-Access.

With MS-Excel you can then create a data connection to this source (without actual loading the records in a worksheet) and create a connected pivot table. You then can have virtually unlimited number of lines in your table (depending on processor and memory: I have now 15 mln lines with 3 Gb Memory).

Additional advantage is that you can now create an aggregate view in MS-Access. In this way you can create overviews from hundreds of millions of lines and then view them in MS-Excel (beware of the 2Gb limitation of NTFS files in 32 bits OS).

Remove multiple objects with rm()

Why specify @charset "UTF-8"; in your CSS file?

If you're putting a <meta> tag in your css files, you're doing something wrong. The <meta> tag belongs in your html files, and tells the browser how the html is encoded, it doesn't say anything about the css, which is a separate file. You could conceivably have completely different encodings for your html and css, although I can't imagine this would be a good idea.

The default for KeyValuePair

You can create a general (and generic) extension method, like this one:

public static class Extensions
{
    public static bool IsDefault<T>(this T value) where T : struct
    {
        bool isDefault = value.Equals(default(T));

        return isDefault;
    }
}

Usage:

// We have to set explicit default value '0' to avoid build error:
// Use of unassigned local variable 'intValue'
int intValue = 0;
long longValue = 12;
KeyValuePair<String, int> kvp1 = new KeyValuePair<String, int>("string", 11);
KeyValuePair<String, int> kvp2 = new KeyValuePair<String, int>();
List<KeyValuePair<String, int>> kvps = new List<KeyValuePair<String, int>> { kvp1, kvp2 };
KeyValuePair<String, int> kvp3 = kvps.FirstOrDefault(kvp => kvp.Value == 11);
KeyValuePair<String, int> kvp4 = kvps.FirstOrDefault(kvp => kvp.Value == 15);

Console.WriteLine(intValue.IsDefault()); // results 'True'
Console.WriteLine(longValue.IsDefault()); // results 'False'
Console.WriteLine(kvp1.IsDefault()); // results 'False'
Console.WriteLine(kvp2.IsDefault()); // results 'True'
Console.WriteLine(kvp3.IsDefault()); // results 'False'
Console.WriteLine(kvp4.IsDefault()); // results 'True'

How to remove decimal values from a value of type 'double' in Java

I would try this:

String numWihoutDecimal = String.valueOf(percentageValue).split("\\.")[0];

int num = Integer.parseInt(String.valueOf(percentageValue).split("\\.")[0]);

Yes, what you are doing is correct. You are checking to make sure the email field is not an empty string. NULL means the data is missing. An empty string "" is a blank string with the length of 0.

You can add the null check also

AND (email != "" OR email IS NOT NULL)

Hidden property of a button in HTML

It also works without jQuery if you do the following changes:

  1. Add type="button" to the edit button in order not to trigger submission of the form.

  2. Change the name of your function from change() to anything else.

  3. Don't use hidden="hidden", use CSS instead: style="display: none;".

The following code works for me:

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<link rel="STYLESHEET" type="text/css" href="dba_style/buttons.css" />
<title>Untitled Document</title>
</head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function do_change(){
document.getElementById("save").style.display = "block";
document.getElementById("change").style.display = "block";
document.getElementById("cancel").style.display = "block";
}
</script>
<body>
<form name="form1" method="post" action="">
<div class="buttons">

<button type="button" class="regular" name="edit" id="edit" onclick="do_change(); return false;">
    <img src="dba_images/textfield_key.png" alt=""/>
    Edit
</button>

<button type="submit" class="positive" name="save" id="save" style="display:none;">
    <img src="dba_images/apply2.png" alt=""/>
    Save
</button>

<button class="regular" name="change" id="change" style="display:none;">
    <img src="dba_images/textfield_key.png" alt=""/>
    change
</button>

    <button class="negative" name="cancel" id="cancel" style="display:none;">
        <img src="dba_images/cross.png" alt=""/>
        Cancel
    </button>
</div>
</form>
</body>
</html>

Browser Caching of CSS files

Your file will probably be cached - but it depends...

Different browsers have slightly different behaviors - most noticeably when dealing with ambiguous/limited caching headers emanating from the server. If you send a clear signal, the browsers obey, virtually all of the time.

The greatest variance by far, is in the default caching configuration of different web servers and application servers.

Some (e.g. Apache) are likely to serve known static file types with HTTP headers encouraging the browser to cache them, while other servers may send no-cache commands with every response - regardless of filetype.

...

So, first off, read some of the excellent HTTP caching tutorials out there. HTTP Caching & Cache-Busting for Content Publishers was a real eye opener for me :-)

Next install and fiddle around with Firebug and the Live HTTP Headers add-on , to find out which headers your server is actually sending.

Then read your web server docs to find out how to tweak them to perfection (or talk your sysadmin into doing it for you).

...

As to what happens when the browser is restarted, it depends on the browser and the user configuration.

As a rule of thumb, expect the browser to be more likely to check in with the server after each restart, to see if anything has changed (see If-Last-Modified and If-None-Match).

If you configure your server correctly, it should be able to return a super-short 304 Not Modified (costing very little bandwidth) and after that the browser will use the cache as normal.

How to see full query from SHOW PROCESSLIST

If one want to keep getting updated processes (on the example, 2 seconds) on a shell session without having to manually interact with it use:

watch -n 2 'mysql -h 127.0.0.1 -P 3306 -u some_user -psome_pass some_database -e "show full processlist;"'

The only bad thing about the show [full] processlist is that you can't filter the output result. On the other hand, issuing the SELECT * FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.PROCESSLIST open possibilities to remove from the output anything you don't want to see:

SELECT * from INFORMATION_SCHEMA.PROCESSLIST
WHERE DB = 'somedatabase'
AND COMMAND <> 'Sleep'
AND HOST NOT LIKE '10.164.25.133%' \G

How to make a HTML Page in A4 paper size page(s)?

It would be fairly easy to force the web browser to display the page with the same pixel dimensions as A4. However, there may be a few quirks when things are rendered.

Assuming your monitors display 72 dpi, you could add something like this:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <style>
    body {
        height: 842px;
        width: 595px;
        /* to centre page on screen*/
        margin-left: auto;
        margin-right: auto;
    }
    </style>
  </head>
  <body>
  </body>
</html>

How to run multiple DOS commands in parallel?

I suggest you to see "How do I run a bat file in the background from another bat file?"

Also, good answer (of using start command) was given in "Parallel execution of shell processes" question page here;

But my recommendation is to use PowerShell. I believe it will perfectly suit your needs.

Gradle: Execution failed for task ':processDebugManifest'

It could be a duplicate permission added in the manifest file. In my case "uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE" was repeated.

error: cast from 'void*' to 'int' loses precision

Again, all of the answers above missed the point badly. The OP wanted to convert a pointer value to a int value, instead, most the answers, one way or the other, tried to wrongly convert the content of arg points to to a int value. And, most of these will not even work on gcc4.

The correct answer is, if one does not mind losing data precision,

int x = *((int*)(&arg));

This works on GCC4.

The best way is, if one can, do not do such casting, instead, if the same memory address has to be shared for pointer and int (e.g. for saving RAM), use union, and make sure, if the mem address is treated as an int only if you know it was last set as an int.

Using .text() to retrieve only text not nested in child tags

Shared-memory objects in multiprocessing

This is the intended use case for Ray, which is a library for parallel and distributed Python. Under the hood, it serializes objects using the Apache Arrow data layout (which is a zero-copy format) and stores them in a shared-memory object store so they can be accessed by multiple processes without creating copies.

The code would look like the following.

import numpy as np
import ray

ray.init()

@ray.remote
def func(array, param):
    # Do stuff.
    return 1

array = np.ones(10**6)
# Store the array in the shared memory object store once
# so it is not copied multiple times.
array_id = ray.put(array)

result_ids = [func.remote(array_id, i) for i in range(4)]
output = ray.get(result_ids)

If you don't call ray.put then the array will still be stored in shared memory, but that will be done once per invocation of func, which is not what you want.

Note that this will work not only for arrays but also for objects that contain arrays, e.g., dictionaries mapping ints to arrays as below.

You can compare the performance of serialization in Ray versus pickle by running the following in IPython.

import numpy as np
import pickle
import ray

ray.init()

x = {i: np.ones(10**7) for i in range(20)}

# Time Ray.
%time x_id = ray.put(x)  # 2.4s
%time new_x = ray.get(x_id)  # 0.00073s

# Time pickle.
%time serialized = pickle.dumps(x)  # 2.6s
%time deserialized = pickle.loads(serialized)  # 1.9s

Serialization with Ray is only slightly faster than pickle, but deserialization is 1000x faster because of the use of shared memory (this number will of course depend on the object).

See the Ray documentation. You can read more about fast serialization using Ray and Arrow. Note I'm one of the Ray developers.

Do you get charged for a 'stopped' instance on EC2?

Short answer - no.

You will only be charged for the time that your instance is up and running, in hour increments. If you are using other services in conjunction you may be charged for those but it would be separate from your server instance.

Arrays.asList() of an array

this is from Java API "sort

public static void sort(List list) Sorts the specified list into ascending order, according to the natural ordering of its elements. All elements in the list must implement the Comparable interface. Furthermore, all elements in the list must be mutually comparable (that is, e1.compareTo(e2) must not throw a ClassCastException for any elements e1 and e2 in the list)."

it has to do with implementing the Comparable interface

OS X Sprite Kit Game Optimal Default Window Size

You should target the smallest, not the largest, supported pixel resolution by the devices your app can run on.

Say if there's an actual Mac computer that can run OS X 10.9 and has a native screen resolution of only 1280x720 then that's the resolution you should focus on. Any higher and your game won't correctly run on this device and you could as well remove that device from your supported devices list.

You can rely on upscaling to match larger screen sizes, but you can't rely on downscaling to preserve possibly important image details such as text or smaller game objects.

The next most important step is to pick a fitting aspect ratio, be it 4:3 or 16:9 or 16:10, that ideally is the native aspect ratio on most of the supported devices. Make sure your game only scales to fit on devices with a different aspect ratio.

You could scale to fill but then you must ensure that on all devices the cropped areas will not negatively impact gameplay or the use of the app in general (ie text or buttons outside the visible screen area). This will be harder to test as you'd actually have to have one of those devices or create a custom build that crops the view accordingly.

Alternatively you can design multiple versions of your game for specific and very common screen resolutions to provide the best game experience from 13" through 27" displays. Optimized designs for iMac (desktop) and a Macbook (notebook) devices make the most sense, it'll be harder to justify making optimized versions for 13" and 15" plus 21" and 27" screens.

But of course this depends a lot on the game. For example a tile-based world game could simply provide a larger viewing area onto the world on larger screen resolutions rather than scaling the view up. Provided that this does not alter gameplay, like giving the player an unfair advantage (specifically in multiplayer).

You should provide @2x images for the Retina Macbook Pro and future Retina Macs.

Inserting HTML elements with JavaScript

Instead of directly messing with innerHTML it might be better to create a fragment and then insert that:

function create(htmlStr) {
    var frag = document.createDocumentFragment(),
        temp = document.createElement('div');
    temp.innerHTML = htmlStr;
    while (temp.firstChild) {
        frag.appendChild(temp.firstChild);
    }
    return frag;
}

var fragment = create('<div>Hello!</div><p>...</p>');
// You can use native DOM methods to insert the fragment:
document.body.insertBefore(fragment, document.body.childNodes[0]);

Benefits:

  1. You can use native DOM methods for insertion such as insertBefore, appendChild etc.
  2. You have access to the actual DOM nodes before they're inserted; you can access the fragment's childNodes object.
  3. Using document fragments is very quick; faster than creating elements outside of the DOM and in certain situations faster than innerHTML.

Even though innerHTML is used within the function, it's all happening outside of the DOM so it's much faster than you'd think...

MySQL Error: #1142 - SELECT command denied to user

So the issue I ran into was this... the application I used to grant the permissions converted the Schema.TableName into a single DB statement in the wrong table, so the grant was indeed wrong, but looked correct when we did a SHOW GRANTS FOR UserName if you weren't paying very close attention to GRANT SELECT vs GRANT TABLE SELECT. Manually correcting the Grant Select on Table w/ proper escaping of Schema.Table solved my issue.

May be unrelated, but I can imagine if one client does this wrong, another might too.

Hope that's helpful.

Scala list concatenation, ::: vs ++

A different point is that the first sentence is parsed as:

scala> List(1,2,3).++(List(4,5))
res0: List[Int] = List(1, 2, 3, 4, 5)

Whereas the second example is parsed as:

scala> List(4,5).:::(List(1,2,3))
res1: List[Int] = List(1, 2, 3, 4, 5)

So if you are using macros, you should take care.

Besides, ++ for two lists is calling ::: but with more overhead because it is asking for an implicit value to have a builder from List to List. But microbenchmarks did not prove anything useful in that sense, I guess that the compiler optimizes such calls.

Micro-Benchmarks after warming up.

scala>def time(a: => Unit): Long = { val t = System.currentTimeMillis; a; System.currentTimeMillis - t}
scala>def average(a: () => Long) = (for(i<-1 to 100) yield a()).sum/100

scala>average (() => time { (List[Int]() /: (1 to 1000)) { case (l, e) => l ++ List(e) } })
res1: Long = 46
scala>average (() => time { (List[Int]() /: (1 to 1000)) { case (l, e) => l ::: List(e ) } })
res2: Long = 46

As Daniel C. Sobrai said, you can append the content of any collection to a list using ++, whereas with ::: you can only concatenate lists.

How do I convert from int to Long in Java?

We shall get the long value by using Number reference.

public static long toLong(Number number){
    return number.longValue();
}

It works for all number types, here is a test:

public static void testToLong() throws Exception {
    assertEquals(0l, toLong(0));   // an int
    assertEquals(0l, toLong((short)0)); // a short
    assertEquals(0l, toLong(0l)); // a long
    assertEquals(0l, toLong((long) 0)); // another long
    assertEquals(0l, toLong(0.0f));  // a float
    assertEquals(0l, toLong(0.0));  // a double

}

jQuery Validate - Enable validation for hidden fields

Just added ignore: [] in the specific page for the specific form, this solution worked for me.

$("#form_name").validate({
        ignore: [],
        onkeyup: false,
        rules: {            
        },      
        highlight:false,

How to split a string by spaces in a Windows batch file?

If someone need to split a string with any delimiter and store values in separate variables, here is the script I built,

FOR /F "tokens=1,2 delims=x" %i in ("1920x1080") do (
  set w=%i
  set h=%j
)
echo %w%
echo %h%

Explanation: 'tokens' defines what elements you need to pass to the body of FOR, with token delimited by character 'x'. So after delimiting, the first and second token are passed to the body. In the body %i refers to first token and %j refers to second token. We can take %k to refer to 3rd token and so on..

Please also type HELP FOR in cmd to get a detailed explanation.

How to sort an array of objects with jquery or javascript

var array = [[1, "grape", 42], [2, "fruit", 9]];

array.sort(function(a, b)
{
    // a and b will here be two objects from the array
    // thus a[1] and b[1] will equal the names

    // if they are equal, return 0 (no sorting)
    if (a[1] == b[1]) { return 0; }
    if (a[1] > b[1])
    {
        // if a should come after b, return 1
        return 1;
    }
    else
    {
        // if b should come after a, return -1
        return -1;
    }
});

The sort function takes an additional argument, a function that takes two arguments. This function should return -1, 0 or 1 depending on which of the two arguments should come first in the sorting. More info.

I also fixed a syntax error in your multidimensional array.

Finding the 'type' of an input element

If you want to check the type of input within form, use the following code:

<script>
    function getFind(obj) {
    for (i = 0; i < obj.childNodes.length; i++) {
        if (obj.childNodes[i].tagName == "INPUT") {
            if (obj.childNodes[i].type == "text") {
                alert("this is Text Box.")
            }
            if (obj.childNodes[i].type == "checkbox") {
                alert("this is CheckBox.")
            }
            if (obj.childNodes[i].type == "radio") {
                alert("this is Radio.")
            }
        }
        if (obj.childNodes[i].tagName == "SELECT") {
            alert("this is Select")
        }
    }
}
</script>     

<script>    
    getFind(document.myform);  
</script>

How to find encoding of a file via script on Linux?

How do you handle multiple submit buttons in ASP.NET MVC Framework?

Just written a post about that: Multiple submit buttons with ASP.NET MVC:

Basically, instead of using ActionMethodSelectorAttribute, I am using ActionNameSelectorAttribute, which allows me to pretend the action name is whatever I want it to be. Fortunately, ActionNameSelectorAttribute does not just make me specify action name, instead I can choose whether the current action matches request.

So there is my class (btw I am not too fond of the name):

public class HttpParamActionAttribute : ActionNameSelectorAttribute {
    public override bool IsValidName(ControllerContext controllerContext, string actionName, MethodInfo methodInfo) {
        if (actionName.Equals(methodInfo.Name, StringComparison.InvariantCultureIgnoreCase))
            return true;

        if (!actionName.Equals("Action", StringComparison.InvariantCultureIgnoreCase))
            return false;

        var request = controllerContext.RequestContext.HttpContext.Request;
        return request[methodInfo.Name] != null;
    }
} 

To use just define a form like this:

<% using (Html.BeginForm("Action", "Post")) { %>
  <!— …form fields… -->
  <input type="submit" name="saveDraft" value="Save Draft" />
  <input type="submit" name="publish" value="Publish" />
<% } %> 

and controller with two methods

public class PostController : Controller {
    [HttpParamAction]
    [AcceptVerbs(HttpVerbs.Post)]
    public ActionResult SaveDraft(…) {
        //…
    }

    [HttpParamAction]
    [AcceptVerbs(HttpVerbs.Post)]
    public ActionResult Publish(…) {
        //…
    } 
}

As you see, the attribute does not require you to specify anything at all. Also, name of the buttons are translated directly to the method names. Additionally (I haven’t tried that) these should work as normal actions as well, so you can post to any of them directly.

How to simulate "Press any key to continue?"

If you're using Visual Studio 2012 or older, use the getch() function, if you are using Visual Studio 2013 or newer, use _getch(). You will have to use #include <conio.h>. Example:

#include <iostream>
#include <conio.h>

int main()
{
   std::cout << "Press any key to continue. . .\n";
   _getch(); //Or getch()
}

What's the difference between a word and byte?

BYTE

I am trying to answer this question from C++ perspective.

The C++ standard defines ‘byte’ as “Addressable unit of data large enough to hold any member of the basic character set of the execution environment.”

What this means is that the byte consists of at least enough adjacent bits to accommodate the basic character set for the implementation. That is, the number of possible values must equal or exceed the number of distinct characters. In the United States, the basic character sets are usually the ASCII and EBCDIC sets, each of which can be accommodated by 8 bits. Hence it is guaranteed that a byte will have at least 8 bits.

In other words, a byte is the amount of memory required to store a single character.

If you want to verify ‘number of bits’ in your C++ implementation, check the file ‘limits.h’. It should have an entry like below.

#define CHAR_BIT      8         /* number of bits in a char */

WORD

A Word is defined as specific number of bits which can be processed together (i.e. in one attempt) by the machine/system. Alternatively, we can say that Word defines the amount of data that can be transferred between CPU and RAM in a single operation.

The hardware registers in a computer machine are word sized. The Word size also defines the largest possible memory address (each memory address points to a byte sized memory).

Note – In C++ programs, the memory addresses points to a byte of memory and not to a word.

How to pip install a package with min and max version range?

An elegant method would be to use the ~= compatible release operator according to PEP 440. In your case this would amount to:

package~=0.5.0

As an example, if the following versions exist, it would choose 0.5.9:

  • 0.5.0
  • 0.5.9
  • 0.6.0

For clarification, each pair is equivalent:

~= 0.5.0
>= 0.5.0, == 0.5.*

~= 0.5
>= 0.5, == 0.*

Matching special characters and letters in regex

let pattern = /^(?=.*[0-9])(?=.*[!@#$%^&*])(?=.*[a-z])(?=.*[A-Z])[a-zA-Z0-9!@#$%^&*]{6,16}$/;

//following will give you the result as true(if the password contains Capital, small letter, number and special character) or false based on the string format

let reee =pattern .test("helLo123@");   //true as it contains all the above

How do you read scanf until EOF in C?

    return 0;     
}

Trigger an action after selection select2

As per my usage above v.4 this gonna work

$('#selectID').on("select2:select", function(e) {

});

And for less then v.4 this gonna work:

$('#selectID').on("change", function(e) { 
   //var value = e.params.data; Using {id,text} format
});

How to style the parent element when hovering a child element?

As mentioned previously "there is no CSS selector for selecting a parent of a selected child".

So you either:


Here is the example for the javascript/jQuery solution

On the javascript side:

$('#my-id-selector-00').on('mouseover', function(){
  $(this).parent().addClass('is-hover');
}).on('mouseout', function(){
  $(this).parent().removeClass('is-hover');
})

And on the CSS side, you'd have something like this:

.is-hover {
  background-color: red;
}

How to stop console from closing on exit?

You can simply press Ctrl+F5 instead of F5 to run the built code. Then it will prompt you to press any key to continue. Or you can use this line -> system("pause"); at the end of the code to make it wait until you press any key.

However, if you use the above line, system("pause"); and press Ctrl+F5 to run, it will prompt you twice!

How to insert a character in a string at a certain position?

You could use

System.out.printf("%4.2f%n", ((float)12345)/100));

As per the comments, 12345/100.0 would be better, as would the use of double instead of float.

What is unexpected T_VARIABLE in PHP?

In my case it was an issue of the PHP version.

The .phar file I was using was not compatible with PHP 5.3.9. Switching interpreter to PHP 7 did fix it.

jquery select element by xpath

document.evaluate() (DOM Level 3 XPath) is supported in Firefox, Chrome, Safari and Opera - the only major browser missing is MSIE. Nevertheless, jQuery supports basic XPath expressions: http://docs.jquery.com/DOM/Traversing/Selectors#XPath_Selectors (moved into a plugin in the current jQuery version, see https://plugins.jquery.com/xpath/). It simply converts XPath expressions into equivalent CSS selectors however.

How to store .pdf files into MySQL as BLOBs using PHP?

EDITED TO ADD: The following code is outdated and won't work in PHP 7. See the note towards the bottom of the answer for more details.


Assuming a table structure of an integer ID and a blob DATA column, and assuming MySQL functions are being used to interface with the database, you could probably do something like this:

$result = mysql_query 'INSERT INTO table (
    data
) VALUES (
    \'' . mysql_real_escape_string (file_get_contents ('/path/to/the/file/to/store.pdf')) . '\'
);';

A word of warning though, storing blobs in databases is generally not considered to be the best idea as it can cause table bloat and has a number of other problems associated with it. A better approach would be to move the file somewhere in the filesystem where it can be retrieved, and store the path to the file in the database instead of the file itself.

Also, using mysql_* function calls is discouraged as those methods are effectively deprecated and aren't really built with versions of MySQL newer than 4.x in mind. You should switch to mysqli or PDO instead.

UPDATE: mysql_* functions are deprecated in PHP 5.x and are REMOVED COMPLETELY IN PHP 7! You now have no choice but to switch to a more modern Database Abstraction (MySQLI, PDO). I've decided to leave the original answer above intact for historical reasons but don't actually use it

Here's how to do it with mysqli in procedural mode:

$result = mysqli_query ($db, 'INSERT INTO table (
    data
) VALUES (
    \'' . mysqli_real_escape_string (file_get_contents ('/path/to/the/file/to/store.pdf'), $db) . '\'
);');

The ideal way of doing it is with MySQLI/PDO prepared statements.

JQuery show/hide when hover

Since you're using jQuery, you just need to attach to some specific events and some pre defined animations:

$('#cat').hover(function()
{
     // Mouse Over Callback
}, function()
{ 
     // Mouse Leave callback
});

Then, to do the animation, you simply need to call the fadeOut / fadeIn animations:

$('#dog').fadeOut(750 /* Animation Time */, function()
{
    // animation complete callback
     $('#cat').fadeIn(750);
});

Combining the two together, you would simply insert the animations in the hover callbacks (something like so, use this as a reference point):

$('#cat').hover(function()
{
     if($('#dog').is(':visible'))
        $('#dog').fadeOut(750 /* Animation Time */, function()
     {
        // animation complete callback
         $('#cat').fadeIn(750);
     });
}, function()
{ 
     // Mouse Leave callback
});

How to get ip address of a server on Centos 7 in bash

Actually, when you do not want to use external sources (or cannot), I would recommend:

DEVICE=$(ls -l /sys/class/net | awk '$NF~/pci0/ { print $(NF-2); exit }')
IPADDR=$(ip -br address show dev $DEVICE | awk '{print substr($3,1,index($3,"/")-1);}')

The first line gets the name of the first network device on the PCI bus, the second one gives you its IP address.

BTW ps ... | grep ... | awk ... stinks. awk does not need grep.

best OCR (Optical character recognition) example in android

Like you I also faced many problems implementing OCR in Android, but after much Googling I found the solution, and it surely is the best example of OCR.

Let me explain using step-by-step guidance.

First, download the source code from https://github.com/rmtheis/tess-two.

Import all three projects. After importing you will get an error. To solve the error you have to create a res folder in the tess-two project

enter image description here

First, just create res folder in tess-two by tess-two->RightClick->new Folder->Name it "res"

After doing this in all three project the error should be gone.

Now download the source code from https://github.com/rmtheis/android-ocr, here you will get best example.

Now you just need to import it into your workspace, but first you have to download android-ndk from this site:

http://developer.android.com/tools/sdk/ndk/index.html i have windows 7 - 32 bit PC so I have download http://dl.google.com/android/ndk/android-ndk-r9-windows-x86.zip this file

Now extract it suppose I have extract it into E:\Software\android-ndk-r9 so I will set this path on Environment Variable

Right Click on MyComputer->Property->Advance-System-Settings->Advance->Environment Variable-> find PATH on second below Box and set like path like below picture

enter image description here

done it

Now open cmd and go to on D:\Android Workspace\tess-two like below

enter image description here

If you have successfully set up environment variable of NDK then just type ndk-build just like above picture than enter you will not get any kind of error and all file will be compiled successfully:

Now download other source code also from https://github.com/rmtheis/tess-two , and extract and import it and give it name OCRTest, like in my PC which is in D:\Android Workspace\OCRTest

enter image description here

Import test-two in this and run OCRTest and run it; you will get the best example of OCR.

What do the result codes in SVN mean?

Also note that a result code in the second column refers to the properties of the file. For example:

U   filename.1
 U  filename.2  
UU  filename.3

filename.1: the file was updated
filename.2: a property or properties on the file (such as svn:keywords) was updated
filename.3: both the file and its properties were updated

Is there an easy way to check the .NET Framework version?

AFAIK there's no built in method in the framework that will allow you to do this. You could check this post for a suggestion on determining framework version by reading windows registry values.

ReferenceError: Invalid left-hand side in assignment

You have to use == to compare (or even ===, if you want to compare types). A single = is for assignment.

if (one == 'rock' && two == 'rock') {
    console.log('Tie! Try again!');
}

AmazonS3 putObject with InputStream length example

While writing to S3, you need to specify the length of S3 object to be sure that there are no out of memory errors.

Using IOUtils.toByteArray(stream) is also prone to OOM errors because this is backed by ByteArrayOutputStream

So, the best option is to first write the inputstream to a temp file on local disk and then use that file to write to S3 by specifying the length of temp file.

adding multiple event listeners to one element

For large numbers of events this might help:

var element = document.getElementById("myId");
var myEvents = "click touchstart touchend".split(" ");
var handler = function (e) {
    do something
};

for (var i=0, len = myEvents.length; i < len; i++) {
    element.addEventListener(myEvents[i], handler, false);
}

Update 06/2017:

Now that new language features are more widely available you could simplify adding a limited list of events that share one listener.

const element = document.querySelector("#myId");

function handleEvent(e) {
    // do something
}
// I prefer string.split because it makes editing the event list slightly easier

"click touchstart touchend touchmove".split(" ")
    .map(name => element.addEventListener(name, handleEvent, false));

If you want to handle lots of events and have different requirements per listener you can also pass an object which most people tend to forget.

const el = document.querySelector("#myId");

const eventHandler = {
    // called for each event on this element
    handleEvent(evt) {
        switch (evt.type) {
            case "click":
            case "touchstart":
                // click and touchstart share click handler
                this.handleClick(e);
                break;
            case "touchend":
                this.handleTouchend(e);
                break;
            default:
                this.handleDefault(e);
        }
    },
    handleClick(e) {
        // do something
    },
    handleTouchend(e) {
        // do something different
    },
    handleDefault(e) {
        console.log("unhandled event: %s", e.type);
    }
}

el.addEventListener(eventHandler);

Update 05/2019:

const el = document.querySelector("#myId");

const eventHandler = {
    handlers: {
        click(e) {
            // do something
        },
        touchend(e) {
            // do something different
        },
        default(e) {
            console.log("unhandled event: %s", e.type);
        }
    },
    // called for each event on this element
    handleEvent(evt) {
        switch (evt.type) {
            case "click":
            case "touchstart":
                // click and touchstart share click handler
                this.handlers.click(e);
                break;
            case "touchend":
                this.handlers.touchend(e);
                break;
            default:
                this.handlers.default(e);
        }
    }
}

Object.keys(eventHandler.handlers)
    .map(eventName => el.addEventListener(eventName, eventHandler))

Is there a way to automatically generate getters and setters in Eclipse?

**In Eclipse Ide

for generating both setters and getters -> alt+shift+s+r then Alt A then click on ok;

for generating only getters ->alt+shift+s+r then press g then click on ok button;

for generating only setters ->alt+shift+s+r then press l then click on ok button;**

HTML img tag: title attribute vs. alt attribute?

The MVCFutures for ASP.NET MVC decided to do both. In fact if you provide 'alt' it will automatically create a 'title' with the same value for you.

I don't have the source code to hand but a quick google search turned up a test case for it!

    [TestMethod]
    public void ImageWithAltValueInObjectDictionaryRendersImageWithAltAndTitleTag() {
        HtmlHelper html = TestHelper.GetHtmlHelper(new ViewDataDictionary());
        string imageResult = html.Image("/system/web/mvc.jpg", new { alt = "this is an alt value" });
        Assert.AreEqual("<img alt=\"this is an alt value\" src=\"/system/web/mvc.jpg\" title=\"this is an alt value\" />", imageResult);
    }

HTML 5 video or audio playlist

Try this solution, it takes an array of soundtracks and plays all of them, playlist-style, and even loops the playlist. The following uses a little Jquery to shorten getting the audio element. If you do not wish to use Jquery, replace the first line of the javascript with var audio = document.getElementById("audio"); and it will work the same.

Javascript:

var audio = $("#audio")[0];
var tracks = {
    list: ["track_01.mp3", "track_02.mp3", "track_03.mp3"], //Put any tracks you want in this array
    index: 0,
    next: function() {
        if (this.index == this.list.length - 1) this.index = 0;
        else {
            this.index += 1;
        }
    },
    play: function() {
        return this.list[this.index];
    }
}

audio.onended = function() {
    tracks.next();
    audio.src = tracks.play();
    audio.load();
    audio.play();
}

audio.src = tracks.play();

HTML:

<audio id="audio" controls>
    <source src="" />
</audio>

This will allow you to play as many songs as you want, in playlist style. Each song will start as soon as the previous one finishes. I do not believe this will work in Internet Explorer, but it's time to move on from that ancient thing anyways!

Just put any songs you want into the array tracks.list and it will play all of them one after the other. It also loops back to the first song once it's finished with the last one.

It's shorter than many of the answers, it accounts for as many tracks as you want, it's easily understandable, and it actually loads the audio before playing it (so it actually works), so I thought I would include it here. I could not find any sound files to use in a running snippet, but I tested it with 3 of my own soundtracks on Chrome and it works. The onended method, which detects the ended event, also works on all browsers except Internet Explorer according to caniuse.

NOTE: Just to be clear, this works with both audio and video.

Why "no projects found to import"?

I have a perfect solution for this problem. After doing following simple steps you will be able to Import your source codes in Eclipse!


First of all, the reason why you can not Import your project into Eclipse workstation is that you do not have .project and .classpath file.

Now we know why this happens, so all we need to do is to create .project and .classpath file inside the project file. Here is how you do it:


First create .classpath file:

  1. create a new txt file and name it as .classpath
  2. copy paste following codes and save it:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <classpath> <classpathentry kind="src" path="src"/> <classpathentry kind="con" path="org.eclipse.jdt.launching.JRE_CONTAINER"/> <classpathentry kind="output" path="bin"/> </classpath>



Then create .project file:

  1. create a new txt file and name it as .project
  2. copy paste following codes:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <projectDescription> <name>HereIsTheProjectName</name> <comment></comment> <projects> </projects> <buildSpec> <buildCommand> <name>org.eclipse.jdt.core.javabuilder</name> <arguments> </arguments> </buildCommand> </buildSpec> <natures> <nature>org.eclipse.jdt.core.javanature</nature> </natures> </projectDescription>

  3. you have to change the name field to your project name. you can do this in line 3 by changing HereIsTheProjectName to your own project name. then save it.


That is all, Enjoy!!

Android SQLite: Update Statement

You can use the code below.

String strFilter = "_id=" + Id;
ContentValues args = new ContentValues();
args.put(KEY_TITLE, title);
myDB.update("titles", args, strFilter, null);

What is meant by immutable?

Objects which are immutable can not have their state changed after they have been created.

There are three main reasons to use immutable objects whenever you can, all of which will help to reduce the number of bugs you introduce in your code:

  • It is much easier to reason about how your program works when you know that an object's state cannot be changed by another method
  • Immutable objects are automatically thread safe (assuming they are published safely) so will never be the cause of those hard-to-pin-down multithreading bugs
  • Immutable objects will always have the same Hash code, so they can be used as the keys in a HashMap (or similar). If the hash code of an element in a hash table was to change, the table entry would then effectively be lost, since attempts to find it in the table would end up looking in the wrong place. This is the main reason that String objects are immutable - they are frequently used as HashMap keys.

There are also some other optimisations you might be able to make in code when you know that the state of an object is immutable - caching the calculated hash, for example - but these are optimisations and therefore not nearly so interesting.

Git push failed, "Non-fast forward updates were rejected"

Encountered the same problem, to solve it, run the following git commands.

Manage toolbar's navigation and back button from fragment in android

You can use Toolbar inside the fragment and it is easy to handle. First add Toolbar to layout of the fragment

<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    android:id="@+id/toolbar"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
    android:minHeight="?attr/actionBarSize"
    app:theme="@style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Dark.ActionBar"
    android:background="?attr/colorPrimaryDark">
</android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar>

Inside the onCreateView Method in the fragment you can handle the toolbar like this.

 Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) view.findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
 toolbar.setTitle("Title");
 toolbar.setNavigationIcon(R.drawable.ic_arrow_back);

IT will set the toolbar,title and the back arrow navigation to toolbar.You can set any icon to setNavigationIcon method.

If you need to trigger any event when click toolbar navigation icon you can use this.

 toolbar.setNavigationOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
           //handle any click event
    });

If your activity have navigation drawer you may need to open that when click the navigation back button. you can open that drawer like this.

 toolbar.setNavigationOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            DrawerLayout drawer = (DrawerLayout) getActivity().findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout);
            drawer.openDrawer(Gravity.START);
        }
    });

Full code is here

 public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    //inflate the layout to the fragement
    view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.layout_user,container,false);

    //initialize the toolbar
    Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) view.findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
    toolbar.setTitle("Title");
    toolbar.setNavigationIcon(R.drawable.ic_arrow_back);
    toolbar.setNavigationOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            //open navigation drawer when click navigation back button
            DrawerLayout drawer = (DrawerLayout) getActivity().findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout);
            drawer.openDrawer(Gravity.START);
        }
    });
    return view;
}

What is the size of column of int(11) in mysql in bytes?

An INT will always be 4 bytes no matter what length is specified.

  • TINYINT = 1 byte (8 bit)
  • SMALLINT = 2 bytes (16 bit)
  • MEDIUMINT = 3 bytes (24 bit)
  • INT = 4 bytes (32 bit)
  • BIGINT = 8 bytes (64 bit).

The length just specifies how many characters to pad when selecting data with the mysql command line client. 12345 stored as int(3) will still show as 12345, but if it was stored as int(10) it would still display as 12345, but you would have the option to pad the first five digits. For example, if you added ZEROFILL it would display as 0000012345.

... and the maximum value will be 2147483647 (Signed) or 4294967295 (Unsigned)

How can I generate a list or array of sequential integers in Java?

Well, this one liner might qualify (uses Guava Ranges)

ContiguousSet<Integer> integerList = ContiguousSet.create(Range.closedOpen(0, 10), DiscreteDomain.integers());
System.out.println(integerList);

This doesn't create a List<Integer>, but ContiguousSet offers much the same functionality, in particular implementing Iterable<Integer> which allows foreach implementation in the same way as List<Integer>.

In older versions (somewhere before Guava 14) you could use this:

ImmutableList<Integer> integerList = Ranges.closedOpen(0, 10).asSet(DiscreteDomains.integers()).asList();
System.out.println(integerList);

Both produce:

[0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]

JUnit 5: How to assert an exception is thrown?

Now Junit5 provides a way to assert the exceptions

You can test both general exceptions and customized exceptions

A general exception scenario:

ExpectGeneralException.java

public void validateParameters(Integer param ) {
    if (param == null) {
        throw new NullPointerException("Null parameters are not allowed");
    }
}

ExpectGeneralExceptionTest.java

@Test
@DisplayName("Test assert NullPointerException")
void testGeneralException(TestInfo testInfo) {
    final ExpectGeneralException generalEx = new ExpectGeneralException();

     NullPointerException exception = assertThrows(NullPointerException.class, () -> {
            generalEx.validateParameters(null);
        });
    assertEquals("Null parameters are not allowed", exception.getMessage());
}

You can find a sample to test CustomException here : assert exception code sample

ExpectCustomException.java

public String constructErrorMessage(String... args) throws InvalidParameterCountException {
    if(args.length!=3) {
        throw new InvalidParameterCountException("Invalid parametercount: expected=3, passed="+args.length);
    }else {
        String message = "";
        for(String arg: args) {
            message += arg;
        }
        return message;
    }
}

ExpectCustomExceptionTest.java

@Test
@DisplayName("Test assert exception")
void testCustomException(TestInfo testInfo) {
    final ExpectCustomException expectEx = new ExpectCustomException();

     InvalidParameterCountException exception = assertThrows(InvalidParameterCountException.class, () -> {
            expectEx.constructErrorMessage("sample ","error");
        });
    assertEquals("Invalid parametercount: expected=3, passed=2", exception.getMessage());
}

Using jQuery to see if a div has a child with a certain class

Use the children funcion of jQuery.

$("#text-field").keydown(function(event) {
    if($('#popup').children('p.filled-text').length > 0) {
        console.log("Found");
     }
});

$.children('').length will return the count of child elements which match the selector.

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

Solution : SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet().getRange('F2').setValue('hello')

Explanation :

Setting value in a cell in spreadsheet to which script is attached

SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getSheetByName(SHEET_NAME).getRange(RANGE).setValue(VALUE);

Setting value in a cell in sheet which is open currently and to which script is attached

SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getActiveSheet().getRange(RANGE).setValue(VALUE);

Setting value in a cell in some spreadsheet to which script is NOT attached (Destination sheet name known)

SpreadsheetApp.openById(SHEET_ID).getSheetByName(SHEET_NAME).getRange(RANGE).setValue(VALUE);

Setting value in a cell in some spreadsheet to which script is NOT attached (Destination sheet position known)

SpreadsheetApp.openById(SHEET_ID).getSheets()[POSITION].getRange(RANGE).setValue(VALUE);

These are constants, you must define them yourself

SHEET_ID

SHEET_NAME

POSITION

VALUE

RANGE

By script attached to a sheet I mean that script is residing in the script editor of that sheet. Not attached means not residing in the script editor of that sheet. It can be in any other place.

char *array and char array[]

The declaration and initialization

char *array = "One good thing about music";

declares a pointer array and make it point to a constant array of 31 characters.

The declaration and initialization

char array[] = "One, good, thing, about, music";

declares an array of characters, containing 31 characters.

And yes, the size of the arrays is 31, as it includes the terminating '\0' character.


Laid out in memory, it will be something like this for the first:

+-------+     +------------------------------+
| array | --> | "One good thing about music" |
+-------+     +------------------------------+

And like this for the second:

+------------------------------+
| "One good thing about music" |
+------------------------------+

Arrays decays to pointers to the first element of an array. If you have an array like

char array[] = "One, good, thing, about, music";

then using plain array when a pointer is expected, it's the same as &array[0].

That mean that when you, for example, pass an array as an argument to a function it will be passed as a pointer.

Pointers and arrays are almost interchangeable. You can not, for example, use sizeof(pointer) because that returns the size of the actual pointer and not what it points to. Also when you do e.g. &pointer you get the address of the pointer, but &array returns a pointer to the array. It should be noted that &array is very different from array (or its equivalent &array[0]). While both &array and &array[0] point to the same location, the types are different. Using the arrat above, &array is of type char (*)[31], while &array[0] is of type char *.


For more fun: As many knows, it's possible to use array indexing when accessing a pointer. But because arrays decays to pointers it's possible to use some pointer arithmetic with arrays.

For example:

char array[] = "Foobar";  /* Declare an array of 7 characters */

With the above, you can access the fourth element (the 'b' character) using either

array[3]

or

*(array + 3)

And because addition is commutative, the last can also be expressed as

*(3 + array)

which leads to the fun syntax

3[array]

Is it possible to declare a variable in Gradle usable in Java?

rciovati's answer is entirely correct I just wanted to add one more tidbit that you can also create variables for every build type within the default config portion of your build.gradle. This would look like this:

android {
    defaultConfig {
        buildConfigField "String", "APP_NAME", "\"APP_NAME\""
    }
}

This will allow you to have access to through

BuildConfig.App_NAME

Just wanted to make a note of this scenario as well if you want a common config.
