How convert a string into a ActiveSupport::TimeWithZone? My dilemma is this. I need to update a field (called updated_at). The field in mysql is datetime, and the class is ActiveSupport::TimeWithZone. But the dates are strings like "10/17/2008". I used "10/17/2008".to_date (And I intend .to_time and to_datetime), and even if in console the ActiveRecord class save succesfully, the field in the database still is the current date...
Thanks in advanced.
Hi, I've looked through other questions but i don't think this has been asked before:
I have an email client i'm building in the .NET framework, and would like to automatically create google calendar events (just like in gmail). Is there a way to feed an email message (i.e. a string) and automatically identify if there is a possible event or not in that?
Any ideas?
Thanks, Erika
I want to do a database-side string concatenation in a Rails query, and do it in database-independent way.
SQL-92 specifies double-bar (||) as the concatenation operator. Unfortunately it looks like MS SQL Server doesn't support it; it uses + instead.
I'm guessing that Rails' SQL grammar abstraction has solved the db-specific operator problem already. If it does exist, how do I use it?
Python says I need 4 bytes for a format code of "BH":
struct.error: unpack requires a string argument of length 4
Here is the code, I am putting in 3 bytes as I think is needed:
major, minor = struct.unpack("BH", self.fp.read(3))
"B" = Unsigned char (1 byte) + "H" unsigned short (2 bytes) = 3 bytes (!?)
struct.calcsize("BH") says 4 bytes.
Hi All,
I have the following strings in my application.
/admin/stylesheets/11
/admin/javascripts/11
/contactus
what I want to do is to write a regular expression to capture anything other than string starting with 'admin'
basically my regex should capture only
/contactus
by excluding both
/admin/stylesheets/11
/admin/javascripts/11
to capture all i wrote
/.+/
and i wrote /(admin).+/ which captures everything starts with 'admin'. how can i do the reverse. I mean get everything not starting with 'admin'
thanks in advance
cheers

I need to search for lines in a CSV file that end in an unterminated, double-quoted string.
For example:
1,2,a,b,"dog","rabbit
would match whereas
1,2,a,b,"dog","rabbit","cat bird"
1,2,a,b,"dog",rabbit
would not.
I have very limited experience with regular expressions, and the only thing I could think of is something like
"[^"]*$
However, that matches the last quote to the end of the line.
How would this be done?
I thought this will be trivial but I can't get this to work.
Assume a line in a CSV file:
"Barak Obama", 48, "President", "1600 Penn Ave, Washington DC"
string[] tokens = line.split(',')
I expect this:
"Barak Obama"
48
"President"
"1600 Penn Ave, Washington DC"
but the last token is
'Washington DC' not
"1600 Penn Ave, Washington DC".
Is there an easy way to get the split function to ignore the comma within quotes?
Hi Guys,
I want to append the string into single varilable using stringWithFormat.I knew it in using stringByAppendingString. Please help me to append using stringWithFormat for the below code.
NSString* curl = @"https://invoices?ticket=";
curl = [curl stringByAppendingString:self.ticket];
curl = [curl stringByAppendingString:@"&apikey=bfc9c6ddeea9d75345cd"];
curl = [curl stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:@"\n" withString:@""];
Thank You,

Using Authlogic, the time format for @user.last_login_at" looks like this:

How can I mangle that into a more user friendly string?
I fill a DataSet and allow the user to enter a search string. Instead of hitting the database again, I set the RowFilter to display the selected data. When the user enters a square bracket ( "[" ) I get an error "Error in Like Operator". I know there is a list of characters that need prefixed with "\" when they are used in a field name, but how do I prevent RowFilter from interpreting "[" as the beginning of a column name?
I'm currently using the following code to right-trim all the std::strings in my programs:
std::string s;
s.erase(s.find_last_not_of(" \n\r\t")+1);
It works fine, but I wonder if there are some end-cases where it might fail?
Of course, answers with elegant alternatives and also left-trim solution are welcome.
I have the following input:
Hi! How are you? <script>//NOT EVIL!</script>
Wassup? :P
LOOOL!!! :D :D :D
Which is then run through emoticon library and it become this:
Hi! How are you? <script>//NOT EVIL!</script>
Wassup? <img class="smiley" alt="" title="tongue, :P" src="ui/emoticons/15.gif">
LOOOL!!! <img class="smiley" alt="" title="big grin, :D" src="ui/emoticons/5.gif"> <img class="smiley" alt="" title="big grin, :P" src="ui/emoticons/5.gif"> <img class="smiley" alt="" title="big grin, :P" src="ui/emoticons/5.gif">
I have a function that escapes HTML entites to prevent XSS. So running it on raw input for the first line would produce:
Hi! How are you? <script>//NOT EVIL!</script>
Now I need to escape all the input, but at the same time I need to preserve emoticons in their initial state. So when there is <:-P emoticon, it stays like that and does not become <:-P.
I was thinking of running a regex split on the emotified text. Then processing each part on its own and then concatenating the string together, but I am not sure how easily can Regex be bypassed? I know the format will always be this:
[<img class="smiley" alt="]
[empty string]
[" title="]
[one of the values from a big list]
[, ]
[another value from the list (may be matching original emoticon)]
[" src="ui/emoticons/]
[integer from Y to X]
[.gif">]
Using the list MAY be slow, since I need to run that regex on text that may have 20-30-40 emoticons. Plus there may be 5-10-15 text messages to process. What could be an elegant solution to this? I am ready to use third-party library or jQuery for this. PHP preprocessing is possible as well.
I've got a string:
doCall(valA, valB);
Using a regex in GVIM I would like to change this to:
valA = doCall(valA, valB);
How would I go about doing this? I use %s for basic regex search and replace in GVIM, but this a bit different from my normal usages.
Thanks

Hi,
Is it possible to calculate the bounds of a htmlized String in Java Swing?

I have some strings which contain the words LIMIT 3, 199 or LIMIT 0, 100.
Basically I want to replace the word LIMIT and everything after it in my string.
How do I do this in PHP? str_replace only replaces an item and the LIMIT text after is dynamic/
So it could be
WHEN JOHN WAS TRYING HIS SQL QUERY, HE FOUND THAT LIMIT, 121
// RETURN WOULD BE
WHEN JOHN WAS TRYING HIS SQL QUERY, HE FOUND THAT
WHEN JOHN TRIED LIMIT 343, 333 HE FOUND
// RETURN WOULD BE
WHEN JOHN TRIED

How can I convert this to a printable string?
