The IT department just made my life a little bit harder again: they introduced a manual HTML login page for all websites they have not "classified". This means that all the applications which try to access unclassified websites for e.g. downloading plugins do not work. Examples: Eclipseplugin installation, Maven builds etc.
What would be the easiest workaround for this? The best I've come up with is try to extend/customize Ruby's httpproxy.rb that comes with Webrick. I would automate the manual login process whenever that login response page is detected. This sounds quite painful, and I think there might/should be simpler options?
Stack overflow has become the first place i come to whenever i have dev problem. I also like to browse when i'm killing time.
Just curious to know what other general sites or resource people use regularly.
I have two silverlight applications. One produces XML files (models) that are used for the other to read. The XML files are uploaded to a specific (abosulte for now) folder.
So, I need a solution to grant access by these two applications, a Models folder. Right now I'm using absolute paths and developing in ASP.NET Dev server.
What would be the best way to accomplish this, thinking on IIS approach?
Regards,
I just upgraded firefox to version 3.6.11 and after the installation was done I got the message that adobe flash player 10.1 needs to be downloaded so I did (even though the flash player I had before upgrading firefox was 10.1 but I reinstalled it coz I thought that since firefox got updated so it needs the plugin to be installed again) and after that whenever I open any website with flash in it (like youtube or facebook games), firefox hangs and stops responding. I don't know if this is related to firefox upgrade or the flash player.
Can anyone help me on this?
Thanks
I have a dev project setup in a subfolder on my testing machine and it must stay there.
However all the Zend frameworks views are linked to server root.
CSS are linked like:
<link type="text/css" href="<?php echo $this->baseUrl('/css/frontend.css') ?>" rel="Stylesheet" />
Which must be stayed this way, but it should link to
localhost/a/b/c/prj1/css/frontend.css
How can I setup a global subdirectory for this?
There is a lot of chatter about the improvements HTML5 is about to unleash on the web development world. How will this new standard affect web dev frameworks like Faces, Struts, or even ASP.NET? How long will it take them to 'catch up' in order to emit such code? Will controls get deprecated?
I am searching for browser option or plugin (it will be best if it is available in Web Kit browsers,Opera or Firefox - not IE) that allows me to open several web pages when it is initially started.
For example, let's say that I have some file with settings in which I have pointed the following websites:
Google +
gmail
StackOverflow.com
SuperUser.com
dba.stackexchange.com
linkedin
etc...
and when I firstly started the Chrome browser, all this sites will be opened in new tabs and because the browser has saved my passwords I will be logged in.
I will find this very helpful because:
It will saves me time
I will not miss anything when I turn off my computer (for example to forget to check my mail)
Hi,
i've a Java project managed by Maven2. The scenario i'm trying to solve is the following:
in development mode i need to use some configuration files (for example, a hibernate.cfg.xml configured for the dev environment), while in production i need to exclude all the development specific files and configurations, and get instead some other ones for my production environment. How can i handle this situation?
Thanks
There is now a Cpanel plugin to fairly easily setup Nginx as a reverse proxy on a Cpanel/Apache server. I've been simultaneously interested in setting up my first unmanaged VPS and my first Nginx server and as a masochist figured why not combine the two.
I'm wondering however if it's worth setting up a pure Nginx server vs trying out cpNginx on Apache? My goal is solely to host WordPress sites and while what I've read raves about Nginx's is exceptional ability serving static at least as a reverse proxy, I am unclear if there is substantial benefit to running a pure nginx with eAccelorator over cpNginx on Apache for dynamic sites? Regardless I'll be running W3TC on all sites to cache content, but am still interested if there are big CPU reductions running PHP scripts under pure Nginx over cpNginx?
i need to display the annotations for some of my downloaded youtube videos. It's also important to make them closeable. Making them clickable would also be nice.
What i found out so far:
From what i understand there there is a vlc plugin/extension that could also render the annotations but i'm having a hard time finding it. Mplayer might also be an option but i'd have to convert the xml files to .bmp and then use a bmov filter to play them.
Any suggestions welcome.
Edit: to further clarify i would like to display/overlay annotations from a youtube xml file (i'm willing to go through a conversion step if i have to) pretty much the same way i can display subtitles from a srt or sub file.
Edit2: I'm open to using other players too ( if vlc is not a feasible option for what i want)
How can you stop the dev team from padding their numbers when it comes to creating task times? How is there any motivation for them to do their work if there are no real deadlines and they are just measured against their velocity.
Get the job done by this deadline
vs
Get the job done whenever we will reduce scope, quality or increase resources
When I try to initialize a 3D array of size 300*300*4 in a C program, my program stops running and reports stack overflow error. The system I am using has 3GB RAM, which should be sufficeint. Is there any way to increase memory allocated to a program? I am using Dev C++ on Windows Vista.
I want to write a python script that will open up this one excel file, "refresh" on the Bloomberg tab (with the Bloomberg add-in), and export all the individual sheets as csv? How can I do this? What are the basic things I should know and is there any reference script that I can use?
I'm using Excel 2010 with the bloomberg plugin.
Not sure if this is the correct forum to use but pls move this to another forum if it's more appropriate there. Thanks.
Are there any text editors/viewers (preferably on windows but other platforms are also ok) that can handle files of 500 MB or more?
The editors I checked so far (Notepad++, Notepad, Eclipse) all choked on files of that size.
Edit:
Many thanks for the great suggestions.
I tried gvim as it was the top voted and was available on Windows. I opened the file in a reasonable time. After that scrolling and searching was very smooth as long as syntax highlighting was turned off.
From the other editors mentioned TextPad and EmEditor both claim to be able to handle large files very well. EmEditor seems to be built exactly for editing large files.
I'll probably try both and report back.
I can't run Content Shell on my system (Windows 7 x64):
When i run --dump-render-tree with the stable release content_shell.exe crashes with message: [XXXX:XXXX:0522/XXXXXX:XXXXXXXXX:FATAL:content_main_runner.cc(735)] Check failed: base::i18n::InitializeICU() were X - some number. And i can't run dev build because it misses mojo_system.dll.
Is there any way to fix it? Does it work on Linux or MacOS? If so i probably can run it in VM For the time being.
Is the O_LARGEFILE flag needed if all that I want to do is write a large file (O_WRONLY) or append to a large file (O_APPEND | O_WRONLY)?
From a thread that I read titled "Cannot write 2gb index file" on the CLucene-dev mailing list, it appears that O_LARGEFILE might be needed to write large files, but participants in that discussion are using O_RDWR, not O_WRONLY, so I am not sure.
Using the local dev server, I can use ';' in urls, but as soon as I try the live version hosted by Google, it looks like the ';' and everything afterward is stripped (at least according to request.path_qs).
(I would prefer not to encode them if possible, it's much less user friendly if the url cannot be constructed by copy-pasting, especially since other characters works fine, e.g. ':').
...I've suffered this problem many times and so do my colleagues
Sometimes after you stroked some keyboard and mouse combinations this behavior showed up : you have to click a xterm's title bar to focus on that term so that you can input, instead of any places in that window.
Whatever you do, minimize, resize don't help. This only thing you can do is logout that session but all the working history will be gone(of course I can save that but it's awkward)
I'm eagerly wondering is there any solutions to this? I use ctrix XenApp plugin 11.0. The other platform info:
Linux 2.6.9-67.ELsmp x86_64
OS: RedHat Enterprise Linux 4.0 U6
xterm:X.Org 6.8.2(192)
THanks!
Say I've made changes to some files but I don't want to check them in. I want to save the changes in a batch file or some archive and then email them to another dev/myself/etc.. so that they can take a look at my changes and apply them to their working copy. Is it possible to do this?
Simpler scenario
Can you backup uncommited svn changes?
I have an ASUS Pentium-R Dual Core CPU running at 2.20Ghz. It has 4 gb of built in ram, currently running a 64 bit Windows 7 . I just started graduate school and Im wondering whether I should go in for a new laptop or just repair the nagging battery on my current one. My requirements include -
-Ability to support IDE's - I may end up running Eclipse, Visual Studio's and the like to help with my work.
- Ability to run multiple VM's (not concurrently). Im currently running a Ubuntu 12 and 9 as VM's (not sure if this is overloading the system)
- I'm a non gamer so I really dont care about a minor glitch caused by running a uber heavy game.
-In addition I will have heavy use of Office Application Software and will be using my computer to watch movies and stream media.
Looking forward to your replies and suggestions!
Is there any way to access my asp.net dev server (launched from visual studio) from an outside connection? It seems to be filtered to only allow localhost
My wife likes to watch TV to go to sleep, the only trouble is that the only TV we have in our house is the iMac with the EyeTV Hybrid. I'd like to have the TV turn off after 1.5 hours of watching without changing the channels/volume--sortof like an alarm clock 'sleep' function.
Do you know of a way to do this either with an EyeTV plugin or an App that might be able to try to detect such conditions and shut down the display? Right now EyeTV overrides the screensaver. The Power saver functions don't really work because she doesn't start watching at the same time every night and periodically she will want to record a 2 or 3 AM show. All I want to do is "close" (but not quit) EyeTV and shut off the display.
Hi!
The problem is: How to access x,y,z coordinates of my touchpad?
Now that SHMConfig is disabled by default, I've found out that, in order to do it, I need to access a file from /dev/input/. Those files are, sadly, readable by root only. Is there any way to access the touchpad while in user-mode?
