or maybe some open source code is available now ?
Thanks for your help !

Need to integrate Django with an existing authentication system. That system has it's own database, API, login/logout,edit profile web pages and cookie.
(I may have to add a few additional profile fields stored/updated locally)
What's the proper approach to substitute the out-of-the-box authentication in Django?
I'm trying to make an app that links to Google streetview using latitude/longitude coordinates, and shows a streetview of the nearest road. This is coming from a fairly small and well covered area, so there isn't going to be any coordinates in the middle of the ocean.
Is there a published API showing the get parameters you need to link directly to streetview?
A client has trouble logging into our webpart (SP 2007). Apparently, his internet connection is via a proxy server. He has no problem logging in to our main website. Authentication from both the webpart and the website is through the same API.
Any suggestions? Thanks.
Hello I am looking for a best way to ask/forward user so he/she adds my app to their page
one way is to make them follow the link
http://www.facebook.com/add.php?api_key=[your
application api key]&pages
(http://www.facebook.com/add.php?api_key=1fc2946c634702dfc75cce79c97c8cec&pages -real life example)
wrapping up the question: as facebook has made a lot of changes maybe the above method is the outdated one(though it is supported), and is there are any more ways to get same result?
Hi,
If someone asks me the below questions
What an Android Framework is?
What does it do?
How should I answer?
Also what is the role of API's such as Activity Manager, Location Manager etc in the Framework?
My code is using file_get_contents() to make GET requests to an API endpoint. It looks like it is using HTTP/1.0 and my sysadmin says I need to use HTTP/1.1. How can I make an HTTP/1.1 request? Do I need to use curl or is there a better/easier way?
My company is working on end user/developer docs using mediawiki. I'd like to take a lot of the API docs that phpdoc spit out (for specific functions/methods) and have it in wiki markup for easy transfer.
Any solutions out there for getting wiki markup or wiki output from phpDoc? I've looked around and found nothing.
I wonder if there is a supported way to access the SharePoint 2010 SQL Server through an API?
I'm not talking about modifying any SharePoint Database directly (I know that that is still unsupported), but I'd like to store some data that my application needs, and instead of asking the user to enter a Connection String, I'd prefer to create my own database on the SQL Server that SharePoint uses.
I think I could use the new Service Application stuff, but that seems a bit overkill?
And how do I convert it to a datetime.datetime instance in python?
It's the output from the New York State Senate's API: http://open.nysenate.gov/legislation/.
I am creating a secure web based API that uses HTTPS however if I allow the users to configure it (include sending password) using a query string will this also be secure or should I force it to be done via a POST?
Hi,
I just wrote a little application(4 page php), everything work fine, however, I have a question that, do I need to create a new instance of facebook (just like $facebook = new facebook.....) in every new php page, or just pass a access token or session? If only pass the access token, how can I use the function $faceook-api('something'); to acheive the data?
Because I'm a beginner of php, I have no idea how access token work, please help, thanks a lot!

When I run this code on my computer with the help of "Google App Engine SDK", it displays (in my browser) the HTML code of the Google home page:
from google.appengine.api import urlfetch
url = "http://www.google.com/"
result = urlfetch.fetch(url)
print result.content
How can I make it display the page itself? I mean I want to see that page in my browser the way it would normally be seen by any user of the internet.
Hi,
Is sequential coupling (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sequential_coupling) really a bad thing in code?
Although it's an anti-pattern, the only risk I see is calling methods in the wrong order but documentation of an API/class library with this anti-pattern should take care of that. What other problems are there from code which is sequential? Also, this pattern could easily be fixed by using a facade it seems.
Thanks
Does anyone know the rationale behind this naming convention? I don't see any benefit. The extra prefix just pollutes the API.
I like Konrad Rudolph's response found in this related article
What's common sense when it comes to minimising the risk of employees spreading critical information to rivalling companies?
As of today, it's clear that not even the US government and military can be sure that their data stays safely within their doors. Thereby I understand that my question probably instead should be written as "What is common sense to make it harder for employees to spread business critical information?"
If anyone would want to spread information, they will find a way. That's the way life work and always has.
If we make the scenario a bit more realistic by narrowing our workforce by assuming we only have regular John Does onboard and not Linux-loving sysadmins , what should be good precautions to at least make it harder for the employees to send business-critical information to the competition?
As far as I can tell, there's a few obvious solutions that clearly has both pros and cons:
Block services such as Dropbox and similar, preventing anyone to send gigabytes of data through the wire.
Ensure that only files below a set size can be sent as email (?)
Setup VLANs between departments to make it harder for kleptomaniacs and curious people to snoop around.
Plug all removable media units - CD/DVD, Floppy drives and USB
Make sure that no configurations to hardware can be made (?)
Monitor network traffic for non-linear events (how?)
What is realistic to do in a real world? How does big companies handle this?
Sure, we can take the former employer to court and sue, but by then the damage has already been caused...
Thanks a lot
I tried the following
Net::HTTP.get_print URI.parse(URI.encode('https://graph.facebook.com/me/likes?access_token=mytoken', '|'))
(My Token is my actual token in code)
I get a EOFError: end of file reached error
If I visit the page with my browswer it loads up a JSON page. Any idea what could be causing the error? It was working a few days ago. Can't see any changes to facebook api.
I have a closed source Java application for which vendor has provided APIs for customization. As I have no other documents, i rely completely on the API's javadoc.
I want to trace what methods are actually called in different classes for a particular use case. Is there any way to do that with eclipse?

Hi all,

Thanks in advance to your response.

I would like to have a button in my window such that if I click it (button) the window is closed.
I found out that I can close a window in the following way:
referenceToTheFrame.hide(); //hides the frame from view
refToTheFrame.dispose(); //disposes the frame from memory
But if I do this way, compiler complains:
Note: myProgram.java uses or overrides a deprecated API
Note: Recompile with -Xlint:deprication for details.
Do I do something unsafe?
Currently I have a website on the Google App Engine written in Google's webapp framework. What I want to know is what are the benefits of converting my app to run with django? And what are the downsides? Also how did you guys code your GAE apps? Did you use webapp or django? Or did you go an entirely different route and use the Java api?
Thanks
I read a lot of blogs and see people all the time talking about bad things in the java programming language; a lot of them are about annotations and generics that were added to the language in 1.5 release. What are the things in the language or the API that you don't like or would design differently?
