• Polling Functionality inside profile page and users wall in Facebook

  - by Pankaj Khurana

  Hi, I have visited page "http://www.facebook.com/FamilyGuy". They are providing poll features on their wall. There are radio buttons with some options. If i click on a particular option the response is shown in the form of graph their only. There is another way also . If i click on become a fan. Then this form is posted on my wall.

• Increasing FD_SETSIZE

  - by user1633717

  I need to increase the FD_SETSIZE value from 1024 to 4096. I know it'd be better to use poll()/epoll() but I want to understand what are pros/cons. The main question is: have I to recompile glibc? I read several thread where the change of .h after changing FD_SETSIZE works recompiling only the user application. Reading the glibc code (and the kernel too), actually it seems to me that if I want to use select(), FD_* macro and so on, I have to recompile all because the size of fd_set is changed. At this point I have to recompile all not only my application because if in the system there is an another "common" application that uses select and friends, I could have problem. Am I right?

• MySQL hangs if connection comes from outside the LAN

  - by Subito

  I have a MySQL Server operating just fine if I access him from his local LAN (192.168.100.0/24). If I try to access hin from another LAN (192.168.113.0/24 in this case) it hangs for a really long time before delivering the result. SHOW PROCESSLIST; shows this process in Sleep, State empty. If I strace -p this process I get the following Output (23512 is the PID of the corresponding mysqld process): Process 23512 attached - interrupt to quit restart_syscall(<... resuming interrupted call ...>) = 1 fcntl(10, F_GETFL) = 0x2 (flags O_RDWR) fcntl(10, F_SETFL, O_RDWR|O_NONBLOCK) = 0 accept(10, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(51696), sin_addr=inet_addr("192.168.113.4")}, [16]) = 33 fcntl(10, F_SETFL, O_RDWR) = 0 rt_sigaction(SIGCHLD, {SIG_DFL, [CHLD], SA_RESTORER|SA_RESTART, 0x7f9ce7ca34f0}, {SIG_DFL, [CHLD], SA_RESTORER|SA_RESTART, 0x7f9ce7ca34f0}, ) = 0 getpeername(33, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(51696), sin_addr=inet_addr("192.168.113.4")}, [16]) = 0 getsockname(33, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(3306), sin_addr=inet_addr("192.168.100.190")}, [16]) = 0 open("/etc/hosts.allow", O_RDONLY) = 64 fstat(64, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=580, ...}) = 0 mmap(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = 0x7f9ce9839000 read(64, "# /etc/hosts.allow: list of host"..., 4096) = 580 read(64, "", 4096) = 0 close(64) = 0 munmap(0x7f9ce9839000, 4096) = 0 open("/etc/hosts.deny", O_RDONLY) = 64 fstat(64, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=880, ...}) = 0 mmap(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = 0x7f9ce9839000 read(64, "# /etc/hosts.deny: list of hosts"..., 4096) = 880 read(64, "", 4096) = 0 close(64) = 0 munmap(0x7f9ce9839000, 4096) = 0 getsockname(33, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(3306), sin_addr=inet_addr("192.168.100.190")}, [16]) = 0 fcntl(33, F_SETFL, O_RDONLY) = 0 fcntl(33, F_GETFL) = 0x2 (flags O_RDWR) setsockopt(33, SOL_SOCKET, SO_RCVTIMEO, "\36\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 16) = 0 setsockopt(33, SOL_SOCKET, SO_SNDTIMEO, "<\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 16) = 0 fcntl(33, F_SETFL, O_RDWR|O_NONBLOCK) = 0 setsockopt(33, SOL_IP, IP_TOS, [8], 4) = 0 setsockopt(33, SOL_TCP, TCP_NODELAY, [1], 4) = 0 futex(0x7f9cea5c9564, FUTEX_WAKE_OP_PRIVATE, 1, 1, 0x7f9cea5c9560, {FUTEX_OP_SET, 0, FUTEX_OP_CMP_GT, 1}) = 1 futex(0x7f9cea5c6fe0, FUTEX_WAKE_PRIVATE, 1) = 1 poll([{fd=10, events=POLLIN}, {fd=12, events=POLLIN}], 2, -1) = 1 ([{fd=10, revents=POLLIN}]) fcntl(10, F_GETFL) = 0x2 (flags O_RDWR) fcntl(10, F_SETFL, O_RDWR|O_NONBLOCK) = 0 accept(10, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(51697), sin_addr=inet_addr("192.168.113.4")}, [16]) = 31 fcntl(10, F_SETFL, O_RDWR) = 0 rt_sigaction(SIGCHLD, {SIG_DFL, [CHLD], SA_RESTORER|SA_RESTART, 0x7f9ce7ca34f0}, {SIG_DFL, [CHLD], SA_RESTORER|SA_RESTART, 0x7f9ce7ca34f0}, ) = 0 getpeername(31, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(51697), sin_addr=inet_addr("192.168.113.4")}, [16]) = 0 getsockname(31, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(3306), sin_addr=inet_addr("192.168.100.190")}, [16]) = 0 open("/etc/hosts.allow", O_RDONLY) = 33 fstat(33, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=580, ...}) = 0 mmap(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = 0x7f9ce9839000 read(33, "# /etc/hosts.allow: list of host"..., 4096) = 580 read(33, "", 4096) = 0 close(33) = 0 munmap(0x7f9ce9839000, 4096) = 0 open("/etc/hosts.deny", O_RDONLY) = 33 fstat(33, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=880, ...}) = 0 mmap(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = 0x7f9ce9839000 read(33, "# /etc/hosts.deny: list of hosts"..., 4096) = 880 read(33, "", 4096) = 0 close(33) = 0 munmap(0x7f9ce9839000, 4096) = 0 getsockname(31, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(3306), sin_addr=inet_addr("192.168.100.190")}, [16]) = 0 fcntl(31, F_SETFL, O_RDONLY) = 0 fcntl(31, F_GETFL) = 0x2 (flags O_RDWR) setsockopt(31, SOL_SOCKET, SO_RCVTIMEO, "\36\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 16) = 0 setsockopt(31, SOL_SOCKET, SO_SNDTIMEO, "<\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 16) = 0 fcntl(31, F_SETFL, O_RDWR|O_NONBLOCK) = 0 setsockopt(31, SOL_IP, IP_TOS, [8], 4) = 0 setsockopt(31, SOL_TCP, TCP_NODELAY, [1], 4) = 0 futex(0x7f9cea5c9564, FUTEX_WAKE_OP_PRIVATE, 1, 1, 0x7f9cea5c9560, {FUTEX_OP_SET, 0, FUTEX_OP_CMP_GT, 1}) = 1 futex(0x7f9cea5c6fe0, FUTEX_WAKE_PRIVATE, 1) = 1 poll([{fd=10, events=POLLIN}, {fd=12, events=POLLIN}], 2, -1^C <unfinished ...> Process 23512 detached This output repeats itself until the answer gets send.

• Group and count in Rails

  - by alamodey

  I have this bit of code and I get an empty object. @results = PollRoles.find( :all, :select => 'option_id, count(*) count', :group => 'option_id', :conditions => ["poll_id = ?", @poll.id]) Is this the correct way of writing the query? I want a collection of records that have an option id and the number of times that option id is found in the PollRoles model. EDIT: This is how I''m iterating through the results: <% @results.each do |result| %> <% @option = Option.find_by_id(result.option_id) %> <%= @option.question %> <%= result.count %> <% end %>

• How to design a client server architect

  - by Saurabh01

  I like to know the server (TCP based) architecture to support large scale of clients(at least10K) to implement Fix server. My points are How we design it. How to listen on the open port? Use select or poll or any other function. How to process the response of the client? On large scale we cannot create the one thread for each client. Should the processing of response is in the different executable and share the request and response to the server executable through IPC. There is much more on it. I would appreciate if anyone explains it or provide any link. Thanks

• Sleep a thread until an event is attended in another thread from a different class

  - by Afro Genius

  I have an application that fires 2 threads, the 1st launches another class to do some processing which in turn launches a 3rd class to do yet more processing. The 2nd thread in the main class should wait until some event in the 3rd class completes before it performs its job. How can this be achieved? I had tried implementing a wait/notify to share a lock object between the two threads but technically this will not work as I found the hard way. Can I share a lock between classes? Note, an instance of the 3rd class is declared in the 1st class and passed as parameter to the 2nd class. Also I tried creating boolean value in 3rd class that tells when event is complete then poll 2nd thread till this value is true. This worked but is not very desirable. Also is actionListner a better approach to this problem?

• Windows/C++: detect when focus has changed between windows (globally)

  - by twig

  I'm trying to find a way to detect when focus is changed to another window (without having to poll every X ms). I've already figured out a way to detect when focus is switched between applications using WH_SHELL and HSHELL_ACTIVATESHELLWINDOW. The problem is I want to detect when focus is switched between dialog/windows within the same app. ie. In Notepad, I can determine when the app switches to Notepad, but I cannot detect when the "Open" or "Save" dialogs appear because the focus is still within the same application.

• Bash init.d script detect that mysqld has started and is running

  - by Ricket

  I'm working on my dedicated server running CentOS. I found out that one of my applications which starts up via a script in /etc/init.d/ requires MySQL to be running, or else it throws an error, so essentially I currently have to start it by hand. How can I detect, in a bash script (#!/bin/sh), whether the MySQL service has started yet? Is there some way to poll port 3306 until it is open to accept connections, and only then continue with the script? Or maybe set an order so that the script doesn't run until the mysqld script runs?

• How to get notified of changes on a read only table? (I.e., Price drop notifications.)

  - by mirthlab

  Let's say I have these tables/models: Product - id - last_updated_date - name - price User - id - name Wishlist - id - user_id - product_id The Product table has a few million records and is being updated automatically each night via a data import (inserting into a new table, dropping the old one). I basically have read-only access to that table/model. If a product is on a user's wishlist and the price drops, I'd like to be able to notify that user. What methods can be used to do this? I have a couple of ideas: Keep track of the Product.last_updated_date in the wishlist model and periodically poll the product table to see if it has been updated. This sounds like a horrible/non-scaleable solution. Some sort of Postgres View or Function that triggers when the Product table is updated? I'm new to postgres so I'm not yet sure if this is even possible. Something amazing that you will suggest that I haven't thought of :) Any help in the right direction is greatly appreciated!

• HTML, Javascript, PHP and Actionscript all in one Eclipse install (2010)

  - by ThunderChunky_SF

  I just wanted to poll the community and see which plugins people are currently using to get all of these different technologies running in Eclipse. I saw this thread which mentioned Spket & WPT: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1575617/eclipse-which-plugins-for-html-javascript But I noticed that Spket doesn't seem to have been updated since October of 2009 so I'm wondering if it's still a good tool to use. I'm not sure what would be best for PHP since it seems like some of the tools are disjointed at the moment. For Actionscript I know I can just install the latest Flash Builder plugin and be done. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

• Implementing a server side push for a small number of clients

  - by Helper Method

  For an web application I am working on I have the following requirements: Clients need to be able to log in via a web brower. After logging in, they will be able to change configurations (normal request/response) will be able to receive alarms sent by the server (a server side push) Now, the question is how to implement the alarms. I first thought of using some long polling approach (Comet), but as the amount of clients will definitely belimited to 5-10, I'm now thinking to go with a simpler approach. What are the options I have? Would it be okay to just let the clients poll the server? Important aspects are: Alarms should be delivered in (nearly) real-time. Alarms must not get lost (a lost alarm could cause harm to real people).

• Gridview inside UpdatePanel refresh

  - by Attilah

  I use a GridView to represent data from a table in my DB. the GridView has some template fields whose content are determined before displaying the Grid ( I use the RowDataBound event to determine content of template fields before displaying the GridView). The page displays a list of records from the table records and then, the recording process starts. after the process is over, the template fields should be updated. how do I automatically refresh the GridView after the process is finished ? it should be noted that the GridView is contained within an control and that I continuously poll the server using a Timer control that executes "GridView1.DataBind()" at the server level every 60 seconds. since the GridView is inside an UpdatePanel, calling DataBind() method on it doesn't seem to call the RowDataBound event. How can I solve this ?

• FTP - way to programatically determine time remaining or bytes transfered?

  - by ciaranarcher

  Hi all I want to make an FTP connection (ideally using Coldfusion 8, but Java is fine too) that will copy a file to a remote server. Crucially however, I want to know how many bytes have been transferred so I can give some feedback to the user. Is this possible, and if so what FTP API would you recommend as I understand the Sun implementation may be a bit lacking. Thanks in advance! PS: I could have another process/thread poll the file size on the destination machine via a web service call while the file is being transferred but it's not ideal. Getting it through FTP API would be the neatest solution.

• Count the number of emails each day in Outlook 2003?

  - by Mat Nadrofsky

  This is for a little pet project of mine. I want to write a program that does some email analytics and tells you the number of emails coming in and out each day, as well as your percentages. Really, all I need to do to kick this off is write a .Net app that can talk with Outlook and count the number of messages received and sent for give dates. Before I got too deep into this, I figured I'd poll the group and see if there is a particular approach I should follow when starting something like this. Any thoughts?

• What was your first home computer?

  - by Adam Tegen

  What was your first home computer? The one that made you "fall in love" with programming. There are 300+ entries, many (most?) of which are duplicates. As with all StackOverflow Poll type Q&As, please make certain your answer is NOT listed already before adding a new answer - searching doesn't always find it (model naming variations, I assume). If it already exists, vote that one up so we see what the most popular answer is, rather than duplicating an existing entry. If you see a duplicate, vote it down so the top entries have only one of each model listed. If you have interesting or additional information to add, use a comment or edit the original entry rather than creating a duplicate.

• Detecting when a process has finished (but not exited)

  - by Egwor

  I have a program that's run in unix (that I have no control over) that when finished prints 'Completed successfully' but does not exit. I want to automatically detect when the process finishes (by checking the output of the command), so that I can kill the process and so that I can proceed do other activities. The complexity comes because I want to be able to run multiples of these scripts concurrently. (One activity I need to do requires the script to be called with various inputs, but each time the script runs it takes a while to return, and so I want to do them in parallel) Has anyone done something similar to this? I could redirect the stderr and stdout output of the command to a temporary file which has a random file name, then tail the file and pipe to grep for the end conditions (I.e. the certain log lines). The problem is, surely tail -f would keep running, and so it would never exit. Should I poll? If so, what's the best approach?

• Capture subprocess output

  - by schneck

  Hi there, I learned that when executing commands in Python, I should use subprocess. What I'm trying to achieve is to encode a file via ffmpeg and observe the program output until the file is done. Ffmpeg logs the progress to stderr. If I try something like this: child = subprocess.Popen(command, shell=True, stderr=subprocess.PIPE) complete = False while not complete: stderr = child.communicate() # Get progress print "Progress here later" if child.poll() is not None: complete = True time.sleep(2) the programm does not continue after calling child.communicate() and waits for the command to complete. Is there any other way to follow the output?

• Is It possible to change dynamically delay on a Scheduled Poller in Camel via JMX?

  - by sebbrousse

  I would like to set/change the delay of a File consumer at runtime through JMX. I am able to change the value of the property but it doesn't seem to be taken into account until I restart the consumer. Example with the camel-archetype-java and its basic file example: Run It Change the delay of the File Consumer by calling the setDelay Operation with the JConsole Delay property of the Consumer is changed but logs show it continues to poll at 500ms by default Stop/Start the consumer New value of delay is used by the consumer Do I need anothers steps or active any configuration to make it work at runtime?

• WMI instrinsic events. Resources

  - by Nickolodeon

  Hi. I subscribe to usb inserted event like this select * FROM __INSTANCECREATIONEVENT WITHIN 3 WHERE TARGETINSTANCE ISA Win32_DiskDrive After inserting usb flash it blinks every 3 seconds. This is polling interval and intrinsic events work by polling object that's in query. Now, we know these types of events may be resource expensive. (Putting value greater then 3 sometimes chokes these events and client program doesn't get notified). Are there other ways to do that, so that usb doesn't get scanned all the time? May be there some extrinsic events available? Right now the only solution I see is to unsubscribe from event above once it trigerred and resubscribe to it in __INSTANCEDELETIONEVENT handler. Hm, althought deletionevent will also poll diskdrive controllers(

I tried to solve this by using a unique id and name for the attributes: <a href="#bottom" id="4656" name="4656"> But this hasn't worked. Suggestions? P.S. Don't use the URL bar, yes that works. Visit the page and click on a link in a post that says "Bottom of the page". This is where it isn't working.

• How to edit files on the users file system from my web server?

  - by Abs

  Hello all, I am really looking for implementation advice as I have entered a new realm that I am not familiar with. At the simplest level, I would like to find a way that I can read/write to a users machine from my web server. For this to work, I think I will have to install some sort of "plugin" on the users machine which can receive (or poll?) the server for instructions. The above is the line of thought that I currently have, maybe using JAVA to do this. This needs to work on Linux, Mac and Windows OS. I am really looking for advice on the above, is it a good idea? Is there a better way of doing this? Is there something out there already that I can build on top of? I really appreciate all input and advice as this is something I have not done before. Thanks all

• WhatsApp - writing a clone (iphone, android, wp7)

  - by Martin

  I am trying to create a instant messaging app very much like whatsapp I suppose. My resources I have available to me are Server development in C# (REST Service, dedicated server app etc) And currently an android development platform using eclipse (iphone, wp7 to follow later). I have done some development in Android before but I don't have any idea where to start an application like this. My guess would be it would work with UDP / TCP or similar ? I currently have a shared server for an asp.net website but I presume this wouldn't be ideal, I could essential setup a web service on the server and get a client to publish his messages there but then this would mean that the receivers would have to POLL (PULL) every 5 minutes or so - so I guess this wouldn't be real time Do I need to use UDP here ? And I presume platforms like Iphone, Android and WP7 will not have any issues sending msgs by UDP - if that is how its done. I look forward to any help or guidance.
