Assignment 02: I made a html form to search a person from that php file. Like: when I will search for Rana php form will b open and and print : Rana have 4 friends and he has a common friend with Nandini and Mamun. when I will search for Tanmoy the page will be open and print: Tonmoy is Rana’s friend who have 4 friend and common friends with Nandini and Mamun. for this I have to use the function “post/get/request” Plz plz plzzzzzzzzzz help me! Here im posting my codes; <?php # Function: finfCommon function findCommon($current, $arr) { $cUser = $arr[$current]; unset($arr[$current]); foreach ($arr As $user => $friends) { $common = array(); $total = array(); foreach ($friends As $friend) { if (in_array($friend, $cUser)) { $common[] = $friend; } } $total = count($common); $add = ($total != 1) ? 's' : ''; $final[] = "<i>{$current} has {$total} friend{$add} in common with {$user}.</i>"; } return implode('<br />', $final); } # Array of users and friends $Friends = array( "Rana" => array("Pothik", "Zaman", "Tanmoy", "Ishita"), "Nandini" => array("Bonna", "Shakib", "Kamal", "Minhaj", "Ishita"), "Roni" => array("Akbar", "Anwar", "Khakan", "Pavel"), "Liton" => array("Mahadi", "Pavel"), "Mamun" => array("Meheli", "Tarek", "Zaman") ); # Creating the output value $output = "<ul>"; foreach ($Friends As $user => $friends) { $total = count($friends); $common = findCommon($user, $Friends); $output .= "<li><u>{$user} has {$total} friends.</u><br /><strong>Friends:</strong>"; if (is_array($friends) && !empty($friends[0])) { $output .= "<ul>"; foreach ($friends As $friend) { $output .= "<li>{$friend}</li>"; } $output .= "</ul>"; } $output .= "{$common}<br /><br /></li>"; } $output .= "</ul>"; # Printing the output value print $output; ?>

• ASP.net PreInit() Vs Init()

  - by ASP.netBeginner

  From local forum i understood that PreInit can be used to handle the following PreInit() >Master pages can be called dynamically >Themes can be set dynamically >Programatically add controls to controls collection and i read Init() is for Init() In this event, we can read the controls properties (set at design time). We cannot read control values changed by the user because that changed value will get loaded after LoadPostData() event fires. Question I am not getting the point "We cannot read control values changed by the user".Where do users change the value of control?.Example would help me to understand the point.

• SVG text - total length changes depending on zoom

  - by skco

  In SVG (for web-browsers), if i add a <text>-element and add some text to it the total rendered width of the text string will change depending on the scale of the text. Lets say i add "mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmA" as text, then i want to draw a vertical line(or other exactly positioned element) intersecting the very last character. Works fine but if i zoom out the text will become shorter or longer and the line will not intersect the text in the right place anymore. The error can be as much as +/- 5 characters width which is unacceptable. The error is also unpredictable, 150% and 160% zoom can add 3 characters length while 155% is 2 charlengths shorter. My zoom is implemented as a scale-transform on the root element of my canvas which is a <g>. I have tried to multiply the font-size with 1000x and scale down equally on the zoom-transform and vice versa in case it was a floating point error but the result is the same. I found the textLength-attribute[1] which is supposed to adjust the total length so the text always end where i choose but it only works in Webkit. Firefox and Opera seems to not care at all about this value (haven't tried in IE9 yet). Is there any way to render text exactly positioned without resorting to homemade filling of font-outlines? [1] http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG11/text.html#TextElementTextLengthAttribute Update Snippet of the structure i'm using <svg> <g transform="scale(1)"> <!--This is the root, i'm changing the scale of this element to zoom --> <g transform="scale(0.014)"> <!--This is a wrapper for multi-line text, scaling, other grouping etc --> <text font-size="1000" textLength="40000">ABDCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVXYZÅÄÖabcdefghijklmnopqrstxyzåäö1234567890</text> </g> </g>

• Rename files to increment filenumber using PowerShell?

  - by Frode Lillerud

  Hi, I've got a bunch of files named attachment.023940 attachment.024039 attachment.024041 attachment.024103 etc... I need to rename the files by incrementing the filenumber by a given number. (So that they match the right ID in a database) I guess I could write a C# application that uses RegEx to parse the filename, but I assume this is a task that could be accomplished in PowerShell as well? I've found several other threads on SO about using PowerShell to rename files, but none of them handled incrementing a filenumber. I'm on Win7, so PowerShell 2.0 is available.

• SelectedItem of listbox - BindableCollection is binded on listbox

  Hi, I bind BindableCollection from caliburn micro on listbox. Also I bind selected listbox item on property in view model. After I select some item on listbox, property SelectedFriedn which is bind on SelectedItem of listbox is still null. Code from view model: private BindableCollection<UserInfo> _friends; //bind on listbox public BindableCollection<UserInfo> Friends { get { return _friends; } set { _friends = value; NotifyOfPropertyChange(() => Friends); } } private UserInfo _selectedFriend = new UserInfo(); //bind on SelectedItem property of listbox public UserInfo SelectedFriend { get { return _selectedFriend; } set { _selectedFriend = value; NotifyOfPropertyChange(() => SelectedFriend); } } In view I have this: <ListBox Name="Friends" SelectedIndex="{Binding Path=SelectedFriendsIndex,Mode=TwoWay, UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged}" SelectedItem="{Binding Path=SelectedFriend, Mode=OneWay, UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged}" Style="{DynamicResource friendsListStyle}" IsTextSearchEnabled="True" TextSearch.TextPath="Nick" Grid.Row="2" Margin="4,4,4,4" PreviewMouseRightButtonUp="ListBox_PreviewMouseRightButtonUp" PreviewMouseRightButtonDown="ListBox_PreviewMouseRightButtonDown" MouseRightButtonDown="ListBox_MouseRightButtonDown" Micro:Message.Attach="[MouseDoubleClick]=[Action OpenChatScreen()]" > Where can be problem?

• Supporting multiple instances of a plugin DLL with global data

  - by Bruno De Fraine

  Context: I converted a legacy standalone engine into a plugin component for a composition tool. Technically, this means that I compiled the engine code base to a C DLL which I invoke from a .NET wrapper using P/Invoke; the wrapper implements an interface defined by the composition tool. This works quite well, but now I receive the request to load multiple instances of the engine, for different projects. Since the engine keeps the project data in a set of global variables, and since the DLL with the engine code base is loaded only once, loading multiple projects means that the project data is overwritten. I can see a number of solutions, but they all have some disadvantages: You can create multiple DLLs with the same code, which are seen as different DLLs by Windows, so their code is not shared. Probably this already works if you have multiple copies of the engine DLL with different names. However, the engine is invoked from the wrapper using DllImport attributes and I think the name of the engine DLL needs to be known when compiling the wrapper. Obviously, if I have to compile different versions of the wrapper for each project, this is quite cumbersome. The engine could run as a separate process. This means that the wrapper would launch a separate process for the engine when it loads a project, and it would use some form of IPC to communicate with this process. While this is a relatively clean solution, it requires some effort to get working, I don't now which IPC technology would be best to set-up this kind of construction. There may also be a significant overhead of the communication: the engine needs to frequently exchange arrays of floating-point numbers. The engine could be adapted to support multiple projects. This means that the global variables should be put into a project structure, and every reference to the globals should be converted to a corresponding reference that is relative to a particular project. There are about 20-30 global variables, but as you can imagine, these global variables are referenced from all over the code base, so this conversion would need to be done in some automatic manner. A related problem is that you should be able to reference the "current" project structure in all places, but passing this along as an extra argument in each and every function signature is also cumbersome. Does there exist a technique (in C) to consider the current call stack and find the nearest enclosing instance of a relevant data value there? Can the stackoverflow community give some advice on these (or other) solutions?

• Why this search can not generate correct result?

  - by user482742

  Hi, All: Below is to find same customer and if he is in list, the number add one. If he is not in the list, just add him in the list. I use Search function to do this, but failed and generated incorrect records. It can not find the customer or the right number of customers. But if I use For..loop to iterate the list, it does well and can find the customer and add new customer in that for..loop search procedure. (I did not paste for ..loop search procedrue here). Another problem is that there is no difference between setting list.sorted true and false. It seems Search function is not correct. This search function is from an example of delphi textbook. The below is with Delphi 7. Thank you. Procedure Form1.create; begin list:=Tstringlist.create; list.sorted:=true; // Search function will generate exactly Same and Incorrect //records no matter list.sorted is set true or false. list.duplicates:=dupignore; .. end; Procedure addcustomer; var .. begin while p1.MatchAgain do begin //p1 is regular expression customer:=p1.MatchedExpression; if (search(customer)=false) then begin list.Add(customer+'=1'); end; allcustomer:=allcustomer+1; .. end; Function Tform1.search(customer: string): boolean; var fre:string; num:integer; L:integer; R:integer; M: Integer; CompareResult: Integer; found: boolean; begin result:=false; found:=false; L := 0; R := List.Count - 1; while (L <= R) and ( not found ) do begin M := (L + R) div 2; CompareResult := Comparetext(list.Names[m]), customer); if (compareresult=0) then begin fre:=list.ValueFromIndex [m]; num:=strtoint(fre); num:=num+1; list.ValueFromIndex[m]:=inttostr(num); Found := True; Result := true; exit; end else if compareresult > 0 then r := m - 1 else l := m + 1; end; end;

• WCF data services (OData), query with inheritance limitation?

  - by Mathieu Hétu

  Project: WCF Data service using internally EF4 CTP5 Code-First approach. I configured entities with inheritance (TPH). See previous question on this topic: Previous question about multiple entities- same table The mapping works well, and unit test over EF4 confirms that queries runs smoothly. My entities looks like this: ContactBase (abstract) Customer (inherits from ContactBase), this entity has also several Navigation properties toward other entities Resource (inherits from ContactBase) I have configured a discriminator, so both Customer and Resource map to the same table. Again, everythings works fine on the Ef4 point of view (unit tests all greens!) However, when exposing this DBContext over WCF Data services, I get: - CustomerBases sets exposed (Customers and Resources sets seems hidden, is it by design?) - When I query over Odata on Customers, I get this error: Navigation Properties are not supported on derived entity types. Entity Set 'ContactBases' has a instance of type 'CodeFirstNamespace.Customer', which is an derived entity type and has navigation properties. Please remove all the navigation properties from type 'CodeFirstNamespace.Customer'. Stacktrace: at System.Data.Services.Serializers.SyndicationSerializer.WriteObjectProperties(IExpandedResult expanded, Object customObject, ResourceType resourceType, Uri absoluteUri, String relativeUri, SyndicationItem item, DictionaryContent content, EpmSourcePathSegment currentSourceRoot) at System.Data.Services.Serializers.SyndicationSerializer.WriteEntryElement(IExpandedResult expanded, Object element, ResourceType expectedType, Uri absoluteUri, String relativeUri, SyndicationItem target) at System.Data.Services.Serializers.SyndicationSerializer.<DeferredFeedItems>d__b.MoveNext() at System.ServiceModel.Syndication.Atom10FeedFormatter.WriteItems(XmlWriter writer, IEnumerable`1 items, Uri feedBaseUri) at System.ServiceModel.Syndication.Atom10FeedFormatter.WriteFeedTo(XmlWriter writer, SyndicationFeed feed, Boolean isSourceFeed) at System.ServiceModel.Syndication.Atom10FeedFormatter.WriteFeed(XmlWriter writer) at System.ServiceModel.Syndication.Atom10FeedFormatter.WriteTo(XmlWriter writer) at System.Data.Services.Serializers.SyndicationSerializer.WriteTopLevelElements(IExpandedResult expanded, IEnumerator elements, Boolean hasMoved) at System.Data.Services.Serializers.Serializer.WriteRequest(IEnumerator queryResults, Boolean hasMoved) at System.Data.Services.ResponseBodyWriter.Write(Stream stream) Seems like a limitation of WCF Data services... is it? Not much documentation can be found on the web about WCF Data services (OData) and inheritance specifications. How can I overpass this exception? I need these navigation properties on derived entities, and inheritance seems the only way to provide mapping of 2 entites on the same table with Ef4 CTP5... Any thoughts?

• BDD for C# NUnit

  - by mjezzi

  I've been using a home brewed BDD Spec extension for writing BDD style tests in NUnit, and I wanted to see what everyone thought. Does it add value? Does is suck? If so why? Is there something better out there? Here's the source: https://github.com/mjezzi/NSpec There are two reasons I created this To make my tests easy to read. To produce a plain english output to review specs. Here's an example of how a test will look: -since zombies seem to be popular these days.. Given a Zombie, Peson, and IWeapon: namespace Project.Tests.PersonVsZombie { public class Zombie { } public interface IWeapon { void UseAgainst( Zombie zombie ); } public class Person { private IWeapon _weapon; public bool IsStillAlive { get; set; } public Person( IWeapon weapon ) { IsStillAlive = true; _weapon = weapon; } public void Attack( Zombie zombie ) { if( _weapon != null ) _weapon.UseAgainst( zombie ); else IsStillAlive = false; } } } And the NSpec styled tests: public class PersonAttacksZombieTests { [Test] public void When_a_person_with_a_weapon_attacks_a_zombie() { var zombie = new Zombie(); var weaponMock = new Mock<IWeapon>(); var person = new Person( weaponMock.Object ); person.Attack( zombie ); "It should use the weapon against the zombie".ProveBy( spec => weaponMock.Verify( x => x.UseAgainst( zombie ), spec ) ); "It should keep the person alive".ProveBy( spec => Assert.That( person.IsStillAlive, Is.True, spec ) ); } [Test] public void When_a_person_without_a_weapon_attacks_a_zombie() { var zombie = new Zombie(); var person = new Person( null ); person.Attack( zombie ); "It should cause the person to die".ProveBy( spec => Assert.That( person.IsStillAlive, Is.False, spec ) ); } } You'll get the Spec output in the output window: [PersonVsZombie] - PersonAttacksZombieTests When a person with a weapon attacks a zombie It should use the weapon against the zombie It should keep the person alive When a person without a weapon attacks a zombie It should cause the person to die 2 passed, 0 failed, 0 skipped, took 0.39 seconds (NUnit 2.5.5).

• Linux clients and Windows Servers can connect but not windows clients

  - by Mustafa Ismail Mustafa

  This is driving me insane because I can't make head or tails of it. We have two DCs (W2K3 SP1) and I'v tried this once on each machine as a sanity check. DHCP is being served by either one of the machines and all machines get an address no problem. The servers can connect/ping/browse to the www and so can all our linux clients. But NONE of our windows clients (all windows 7). I can do anything within the network, I can even ping the firewall/router but nothing from the windows clients is leaving the confines of our subnet. I don't get it. The linux and windows clients are both served from the same DHCP server, the gateway is the same, everything is the same. Anyone care to take a shot at how to resolve this? I tried adding explicit routes at the clients, but still no go. TIA SMIM

• How can I setup a Firewall without NAT?

  - by SRobertJames

  We have 16 IP addresses from our ISP, and are setting up a SonicWall Firewall. I'd like to have the SonicWall do NAT for the LAN, but act as a firewall only (no NAT) for the servers which are using some of the 16 addresses. How do I set this up? If I set the WAN's subnet to include the 16 IPs, the SonicWall won't route the traffic to the LAN interface. Should I set the WAN subnet to only include the ones we are dedicating for NAT, and then keep the others on the LAN? Related point: How can I set multiple IP addresses for a SonicWall LAN interface?

• Sync, share and backup policy using NAS

  - by Cue

  Trying to come up with a way to keep in sync while sharing and keeping a backup of my music/photos and movies. Currently I have an iMac in Greece and a MBP with me in the UK. As a result I've ended up with 2 iPhoto and iTunes libraries not to mention Documents scattered here and there, user settings etc. I also like to have a backup in case of a drive failure or the need to clean install. It seems that iPhoto and iTunes don't work really well with networked libraries. The way I think about it is to have a NAS where I keep my iTunes and iPhoto library but also rsync daily to my MBP to have a local copy. That way my files are shared across the network as well as act like a backup. In addition I get to have my files wherever I take my MBP but also have the ability to clean install. The tricky part comes from keeping in sync the iMac which is miles away. Again I'm considering a mirror setup (NAS, rsync to the iMac) as well as an rsync between the two NAS. It pretty much resembles the way Dropbox works, sans the requirement to go through their servers but I'm no "superuser" and don't really know if it is even feasible to have such a setup. Looks like there are so many things that can go wrong.

• Why does a redirect from a local IP address assume localhost?

  - by Jeremy

  I am developing a web application on my desktop and it is running on port 80. I am able to access the application from my laptop connected to the LAN by entering my desktop's LAN IP address 192.168.1.8. Now, my application sends a redirect after login, but my laptop assumes the final address is localhost/login. If I manually type in the IP address and URI for any page, it shows that I am logged in, so it works as expected. So, why does the redirect assume localhost? Both of my machines are linux-based. The laptop being Chrome OS. I am running nginx which proxies non-static file requests to jetty on port 8080.

• Why do LCD screens need a backlight? (seriously)

  - by Tudor

  Bare with me on this, I'm well aware that most LCDs have backlights. But what if, they DIDN'T? I spend long hours in front of a screen and I hate the concept of staring into a lightbulb all the time and my eyes getting sore. I need to get a new lcd (some sort of IPS that doesn't cost a fortune) soon, but no matter what I'll get, I'll still be looking at a damn light. How come you can read on a kindle w/o a backlight but there aren't any monitors like that? I mean, ideally, a screen should be like a book or any other object in real life. Just for curiosity's sake, does anyone know of any new monitor concepts? Also, http://www.indiaonrent.com/view/l/laptop-transparent-monitor.html hah!

• Youtube "unable to convert video file"

After I upload it, I get the message "Failed (unable to convert video file)" What could be the problem because all the videos are the same format, and only a few of them fail. When I click upload details, while uploading, the file seems to be recognized by youtube: Format: MATROSKA Dimensions: 704 x 480 px Video codec: H264 Audio codec: AAC

• SATA DVD drive refuses to read movie DVDs

  - by poke

  Hey, I have a problem with my DVD Drive (Asus DRW-2014L1T, most current firmware installed) on Windows 7 x64. When I insert a DVD movie and Windows starts to access the drive (for autoplay, or when I manually click on the drive icon), my computer hangs up in a particular way, while trying to read the disk. Explorer stops reacting and several programs won't run or their launch is horribly delayed (like the device manager). In th end, I can't access the movie and can't even eject the disk (probably because Windows is still trying to access it). To get the disk out of the drive I then have to reboot (which sometimes doesn't work either) and eject the disk before Windows boots. BIOS recognizes the drive just fine, and Windows is also able to read data disks (tried it with some software disks), but just refuses any movies. I have checked the region code in the device manager, but it is correct. My notebook is reading the disks just fine btw.. I remember having the same problem with an older drive as well, but I don't remember what I did to make it work again (maybe I didn't even fix the problem back then). I do remember however that booting with the disk inserted made Windows recognize the disk, however this doesn't work in this situation either. Do you have any idea what to do to fix that problem?
