  • Java: Line appears when using AffineTransform to scale image

    - by Malakim
    Hi, I'm having a problem with image scaling. When I use the following code to scale an image it ends up with a line either at the bottom or on the right side of the image. double scale = 1; if (scaleHeight >= scaleWidth) { scale = scaleWidth; } else { scale = scaleHeight; } AffineTransform af = new AffineTransform(); af.scale(scale, scale); AffineTransformOp operation = new AffineTransformOp(af, AffineTransformOp.TYPE_NEAREST_NEIGHBOR); BufferedImage bufferedThumb = operation.filter(img, null); The original image is here: http://tinyurl.com/yzv6r7h The scaled image: http://tinyurl.com/yk6e8ga Does anyone know why the line appears? Thanks!

  • Thread-safe data structure design

    - by Inso Reiges
    Hello, I have to design a data structure that is to be used in a multi-threaded environment. The basic API is simple: insert element, remove element, retrieve element, check that element exists. The structure's implementation uses implicit locking to guarantee the atomicity of a single API call. After i implemented this it became apparent, that what i really need is atomicity across several API calls. For example if a caller needs to check the existence of an element before trying to insert it he can't do that atomically even if each single API call is atomic: if(!data_structure.exists(element)) { data_structure.insert(element); } The example is somewhat awkward, but the basic point is that we can't trust the result of "exists" call anymore after we return from atomic context (the generated assembly clearly shows a minor chance of context switch between the two calls). What i currently have in mind to solve this is exposing the lock through the data structure's public API. This way clients will have to explicitly lock things, but at least they won't have to create their own locks. Is there a better commonly-known solution to these kinds of problems? And as long as we're at it, can you advise some good literature on thread-safe design? EDIT: I have a better example. Suppose that element retrieval returns either a reference or a pointer to the stored element and not it's copy. How can a caller be protected to safely use this pointer\reference after the call returns? If you think that not returning copies is a problem, then think about deep copies, i.e. objects that should also copy another objects they point to internally. Thank you.

  • Creating an Improved Digital Zoom

    - by Kazar
    Hey, Ok, so I have a given video source (for the sake of the example, it is a camera). It does not have optical zoom, but we supply digital zoom instead. Now this digital zoom is pretty simple, simply cropping the image to a specified portion, and filling the screen with that portion. The problem is that the zoomed video can have pretty rubbish quality when the digital zoom is enabled. I am wondering if anyone knows of an approach by which a higher quality of digital zoom can be achieved in real-time. The software is on Windows, and the video is rendered using DirectShow, but it isn't a platform solution I'm necessarily after, more just a better approach to the problem. Cheers

  • QListView/QListWidget with custom items

    - by Daniel
    I'm writing my first Qt application with PyQt and am having some trouble creating a custom list view. I'd like the list to contain arbitrary widgets (one custom widget in particular). How would I go about this? It seems that the alternative would be to create a table or grid view wrapped in a scrollbar. However, I'd like to be able to take advantage of the model/view approach as well as the nesting (tree-view) support the built-ins handle. EDIT: To clarify, this widget is interactive (contains buttons), so the solution requires more than painting a widget.

  • Change table view ( style grouped ) background color ?

    - by Madhup
    Hi all, I am developing an iPad application in which I need a table view ( style grouped ) having background color as clearColor. My problem is [self.tableView setBackgroundColor:[UIColor clearColor]]; works well if the table view style is plain but when I switch to group table view the background color does not changes it stays gray in color. FYI: the contentview background color of tableviewcell also does not change. Is this a bug in iPhone-sdk or I am doing something wrong. Thanks, Madhup

  • Alt for images in JasperReports

    - by Aviator
    Hello all, While putting an image element in PDF report, how can we give the alt description or similar kind of description for that image? The idea is to read the description when some screen reader is used to read the PDF. Currently, the reader (JAWS) says just 'graphic' when encountering an image in the PDF. Thanks!

  • jquery slideDown menu

    - by Elliott
    Hi, I have a link which once hovered over a box below slides down, once hover is removed it slides back up. I have it working almost to how I want, although in IE8 (Havent tested in other IE yet) the text in the box which slides down is not centerd. In firefox, when it slides down the corners are not smooth, but they are in IE. Live test here Code: <script type="text/javascript"> $(document).ready(function() { $('#nav_top').corners('5px'); $('#nav_bottom').hide(); $('#nav_bottom').corners(); $('#link').hover(function() { $('#nav_top').corners('10px top'); $('#nav_bottom').stop(true, true).slideDown(); $('#nav_bottom').slideDown("slow"); }, function () { $('#nav_bottom').slideUp("fast"); } ); }); </script> <div id="nav_top"> <a href="javascript:void(0);" id="link">Hover</a> <div id="nav_bottom"> <br />Stuff </div> </div> </div> Any advice, also is it better to use .hover or .mouseEnter / mouseLeave? Thanks

  • Java framework "suggestion" for persisting the results from an Oracle 9i stored procedure using Apac

    - by chocksaway
    Hello, I am developing a Java servlet which calls an Oracle stored procedure. The stored procedure is likely to "grow" over time, and I have concerns the amount of time taken to "display the results on a web page". While I am at the implementation stage, I would like some suggestions of a Persistence framework which will work on Apache Tomcat 5.5? I see two approaches to persisting the database results. A scheduled database query every N minutes, or something which utilises triggers. Hibernate seems like the obvious answer, but I have never called stored procedures from Hibernate (HQL and Criteria). Is there a more appropriate framework which can be used? Thank you. cheers Miles.

  • Looking for a web interaction layer for SmartList

    - by spot
    We run quite a few internal mailing lists with SmartList (procmail). I need to offer a web interaction ability (think Google Groups) to the mailing lists. Is there anything that will do this on top of SmartList? If not, is there anything that will do this in general on another linux mailing list manager?

    - by coulix
    Hi Everyone, I am using a canvas which has a degrafa background, so far so good. However when scrolling apears the background (degrafa grid) does not get redrawn. In the code the bg strokes are linked to the container height. The thing is container.height does not change even when scrolling. How do i get the heigh of the whole area so i can set the new height to my degrafa background ? it looks like this. <mx:Canvas id="blackBoard" width="100%" height="100%" x="0" y="0" backgroundColor="#444444" clipContent="true"> <!-- Degrafa Surface --> <degrafa:Surface id="boardSurfaceContainer"> <degrafa:strokes> <degrafa:SolidStroke id="whiteStroke" color="#EEE" weight="1" alpha=".2"/> </degrafa:strokes> <!-- Grid drawing --> <degrafa:GeometryGroup id="grid"> <degrafa:VerticalLineRepeater count="{blackBoard.width / ApplicationFacade.settings.GRID_SIZE}" stroke="{whiteStroke}" x="0" y="0" y1="{blackBoard.height}" offsetX="0" offsetY="0" moveOffsetX="{ApplicationFacade.settings.GRID_SIZE}" moveOffsetY="0"/> <degrafa:HorizontalLineRepeater count="{blackBoard.height / ApplicationFacade.settings.GRID_SIZE}" stroke="{whiteStroke}" x="0" y="0" x1="{blackBoard.width}" offsetX="0" offsetY="0" moveOffsetX="0" moveOffsetY="{ApplicationFacade.settings.GRID_SIZE}"/> </degrafa:GeometryGroup> </degrafa:Surface>

  • Bulk update & occasional insert (coredata) - Too slow

    - by Andrew
    Update: Currently looking into NSSET's minusSet links: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1475636/comparing-two-arrays Hi guys, Could benefit from your wisdom here.. I'm using Coredata in my app, on first launch I download a data file and insert over 500 objects (each with 60 attributes) - fast, no problem. Each subsequent launch I download an updated version of the file, from which I need to update all existing objects' attributes (except maybe 5 attributes) and create new ones for items which have been added to the downloaded file. So, first launch I get 500 objects.. say a week later my file now contains 507 items.. I create two arrays, one for existing and one for downloaded. NSArray *peopleArrayDownloaded = [CoreDataHelper getObjectsFromContext:@"person" :@"person_id" :YES :managedObjectContextPeopleTemp]; NSArray *peopleArrayExisting = [CoreDataHelper getObjectsFromContext:@"person" :@"person_id" :YES :managedObjectContextPeople]; If the count of each array is equal then I just do this: NSUInteger index = 0; if ([peopleArrayExisting count] == [peopleArrayDownloaded count]) { NSLog(@"Number of people downloaded is same as the number of people existing"); for (person *existingPerson in peopleArrayExisting) { person *tempPerson = [peopleArrayDownloaded objectAtIndex:index]; // NSLog(@"Updating id: %@ with id: %@",existingPerson.person_id,tempPerson.person_id); // I have 60 attributes which I to update on each object, is there a quicker way other than overwriting existing? index++; } } else { NSLog(@"Number of people downloaded is different to number of players existing"); So now comes the slow part. I end up using this (which is tooooo slow): NSLog(@"Need people added to the league"); for (person *tempPerson in peopeArrayDownloaded) { NSPredicate *predicate = [NSPredicate predicateWithFormat:@"person_id = %@",tempPerson.person_id]; // NSLog(@"Searching for existing person, person_id: %@",existingPerson.person_id); NSArray *filteredArray = [peopleArrayExisting filteredArrayUsingPredicate:predicate]; if ([filteredArray count] == 0) { NSLog(@"Couldn't find an existing person in the downloaded file. Adding.."); person *newPerson = [NSEntityDescription insertNewObjectForEntityForName:@"person" inManagedObjectContext:managedObjectContextPeople]; Is there a way to generate a new array of index items referring to the additional items in my downloaded file? Incidentally, on my tableViews I'm using NSFetchedResultsController so updating attributes will call [cell setNeedsDisplay]; .. about 60 times per cell, not a good thing and it can crash the app. Thanks for reading :)

  • Master / Detail datagridview with relation from type string in C#

    - by Daniel
    Hello, I want to show a master / detail relationship using two datagridviews and DataRelation in C#. The relation between the master and the detail table is an ID from type string (and there is no chance to change the ID to type integer). It seems like the DataGridView is not able to update the detail view when changing the row in the master table. Does anybody know if it is possible to achieve a master / detail view using a string ID and if yes, how? Or do I have to use an external DataGrid from another company? Thanks for any help Daniel
