  • Performance characteristics of pthreads vs ucontext

    - by Robert Mason
    I'm trying to port a library that uses ucontext over to a platform which supports pthreads but not ucontext. The code is pretty well written so it should be relatively easy to replace all the calls to the ucontext API with a call to pthread routines. However, does this introduce a significant amount of additional overhead? Or is this a satisfactory replacement. I'm not sure how ucontext maps to operating system threads, and the purpose of this facility is to make coroutine spawning fairly cheap and easy. So, question is: Does replacing ucontext calls with pthread calls significantly change the performance characteristics of a library?

  • Sorting a vector of (double precision) reals and obtain their order

    - by Philipp
    Hello everyone, in C++ would like to sort a lengthy (2^20) vector of reals, obviously sort() does the trick. Having used R before I was used to the nice order() function which yields the permutation that leads to the sorted vector. Probably someone has done this in C++, maybe it's just my weak google-Fu that prevents me from finding it. And yeah, obivously my C++ newbness could stop me from spotting something straightforward. Example: x = {24, 55, 22, 1} then the permutation perm = {3, 2, 0, 1} maps the original x to the sorted x in ascending order. I can probably implement some bubble sort which does not only sort x but performs the same transpositions on the vector {0,1,2,...} and outputs both, but I believe someone must have thought about it and especially have done it efficiently. Thank you very much, Philipp

  • How can I use a single UIToolbar with multiple different UIViewControllers?

    - by Aeonaut
    I have a simple app with two basic screens, a UIMapView and a UITableView. I'd like to have a toolbar at the bottom with a couple of buttons and a UISegmentedControl with two segments: "Map" and "Table". (The layout is similar to the Google Maps app that ships with the iPhone.) How can I keep the same toolbar while presenting either the UIMapView (with a UIMapViewController) or the UITableView (with a UITableViewController) when the user switches back and forth on the segmented control? Of course, I can just create an identical toolbar for each of the two different views and display them separately, but is there a better way?

  • How Do I Pass The Value (Not The Reference) of a JS Variable to a Function?

    - by ryan
    Here is a simplified version of something I'm trying to run: for (var i = 0; i < results.length; i++) { marker = results[i]; google.maps.event.addListener(marker, 'click', function() { change_selection(i); }); } but I'm finding that every listener uses the value of results.length (the value when the for loop terminates). How can I add listeners such that each uses the value of i at the time I add it, rather than the reference to i?

  • Long running, polling, queueing process for Python. What's the best stuff to use?

    - by Bialecki
    Feel free to close and/or redirect if this has been asked, but here's my situation: I've got an application that will require doing a bunch of small units of work (polling a web service until something is done, then parsing about 1MB worth of XML and putting it in a database). I want to have a simple async queueing mechanism that'll poll for work to do in a queue, execute the units of work that need to be done, and have the flexibility to allow for spawning multiple worker processes so these units of work can be done in parallel. (Bonus if there's some kind of event framework that would also me to listen for when work is complete.) I'm sure there is stuff to do this. Am I describing Twisted? I poked through the documentation, I'm just not sure exactly how my problems maps onto their framework, but I haven't spent much time with it. Should I just look at the multiprocess libraries in Python? Something else?

  • Polishing an user interface

    - by elec
    Looking for examples of some "final touches" to enhance an existing (raw) user interface. I.e nothing related to the core functionalities of the application, but rather examples of all these little details which give an application a "polished" look (new fonts, change in layout, more descriptive labels...others ?) The target platform will be a mobile platform (android/iphone). Note that I'm severly graphically impaired regarding colour and shape combinations, so anything too sophisticated will probably pass me by completely ;)

  • Implementing coroutines in Java

    - by JUST MY correct OPINION
    This question is related to my question on existing coroutine implementations in Java. If, as I suspect, it turns out that there is no full implementation of coroutines currently available in Java, what would be required to implement them? As I said in that question, I know about the following: You can implement "coroutines" as threads/thread pools behind the scenes. You can do tricksy things with JVM bytecode behind the scenes to make coroutines possible. The so-called "Da Vinci Machine" JVM implementation has primitives that make coroutines doable without bytecode manipulation. There are various JNI-based approaches to coroutines also possible. I'll address each one's deficiencies in turn. Thread-based coroutines This "solution" is pathological. The whole point of coroutines is to avoid the overhead of threading, locking, kernel scheduling, etc. Coroutines are supposed to be light and fast and to execute only in user space. Implementing them in terms of full-tilt threads with tight restrictions gets rid of all the advantages. JVM bytecode manipulation This solution is more practical, albeit a bit difficult to pull off. This is roughly the same as jumping down into assembly language for coroutine libraries in C (which is how many of them work) with the advantage that you have only one architecture to worry about and get right. It also ties you down to only running your code on fully-compliant JVM stacks (which means, for example, no Android) unless you can find a way to do the same thing on the non-compliant stack. If you do find a way to do this, however, you have now doubled your system complexity and testing needs. The Da Vinci Machine The Da Vinci Machine is cool for experimentation, but since it is not a standard JVM its features aren't going to be available everywhere. Indeed I suspect most production environments would specifically forbid the use of the Da Vinci Machine. Thus I could use this to make cool experiments but not for any code I expect to release to the real world. This also has the added problem similar to the JVM bytecode manipulation solution above: won't work on alternative stacks (like Android's). JNI implementation This solution renders the point of doing this in Java at all moot. Each combination of CPU and operating system requires independent testing and each is a point of potentially frustrating subtle failure. Alternatively, of course, I could tie myself down to one platform entirely but this, too, makes the point of doing things in Java entirely moot. So... Is there any way to implement coroutines in Java without using one of these four techniques? Or will I be forced to use the one of those four that smells the least (JVM manipulation) instead?

  • Best PHP framework for jQuery?

    - by Radagaisus
    I've read all the answers on stackoverflow for similar questions but no one really laid down an explanation: why is zend/symfony/kohana/cakePHP the best for jQuery? what is the difference? I'm writing a snazzy ultra-cool web 2.0 app with google maps and facebook connect integration plus a bunch of other APIs. Almost everything will be AJAX vis JSON. For me PHP is a burden, an unnecessary evil. I need database control, almost always via JSON. I need user authentication. This is all. Nothing fancy. And I need it to scale. Most of all I need it to work effortlessly with jQuery, I need it to be jQuery's BFF, and I need to know why it is so. Thank you very much EDIT: The candidates right now are Yii, CodeIgniter and MongoDB.

  • How GPS works in iPhone ?

    - by Krishnan
    Hi Friends, I am using a iPhone 3g. I am in India(I got it in India). I just tried to check my location using the Google Maps. My location was spotted when I had sim in my phone. But when I took out the SIM from iPhone, I did not get my location. I tried the same with the Locate me Sample Application . So can someone explain how GPS works in iPhone, and how to fix my problem(to get my location when there is no SIM). Thanks and Regards, krishnan

  • How can I embed a conditional comment for IE with innerHTML?

    - by Samuel Charpentier
    Ok so I want to conditionally add this line of code; <!--[if ! IE]> <embed src="logo.svg" type="image/svg+xml" /> <![endif]--> Using: document.getElementById("logo") .innerHTML='...'; In a if()/else() statement and it don't write it! If i get rid of the selective comment ( <!--[if ! IE]><![endif]-->) and only put the SVG ( <embed src="logo.svg" type="image/svg+xml" /> ) it work! what should I do? I found a way around but i think in the Android browser the thing will pop up twice. here's what I've done ( and its Validated stuff!); <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <META CHARSET="UTF-8"> <title>SVG Test</title> <script type="text/javascript"> //<![CDATA[ onload=function() { var ua = navigator.userAgent.toLowerCase(); var isAndroid = ua.indexOf("android") > -1; //&& ua.indexOf("mobile"); if(isAndroid) { document.getElementById("logo").innerHTML='<img src="fin_palais.png"/>'; } } //]]> </script> </head> <body> <div id="logo"> <!--[if lt IE 9]> <img src="fin_palais.png"/> <![endif]--> <!--[if gte IE 9]><!--> <embed src="fin_palais.svg" type="image/svg+xml" /> <!--<![endif]--> </div> </body>

  • polymorphism and interfaces

    - by mixm
    if i have two classes x and y, both extend class w. and x implementing interface z. if i have methods doSomething(w object) and doSomething(x object), what would happen if i call doSomething(x)? edit: im implementing this on java, more specifically on android. im asking this because some classes which implement a specific interface mostly does the same thing when doSomething() is called. but there are special cases which i would like to single out.

  • Using tab key to navigate google search results

    - by CrazyJugglerDrummer
    Google the phrase "Humans vs zombies" (just used for an example here, phrase doesn't matter). When you see the search results, put your fingers on the keyboard, and press tab until you get to the first result. It takes me over 10 tabs to get through the "images", "videos", "maps", "advanced search" and other links. (Do you get the same results?) How can I get it so pressing the tab key the first time takes me to the first link? I'm using FF 3.6. How might I be able to greasemonkey this?

  • iframe height not taken into account by IE8

    - by Pedro
    Hi guys, I'm building a dummy widget for a iGoogle/Netvibes like portal. This is a "Google Maps" widget, as it only renders a map centered on a specific location. The widget looks good in all browsers but IE8, in which the height I specify to the <div> that contains the map is not taken into account. Here's the interesting part of the code: <body onload="initialize()" > <div id="map_canvas" style="height:400px; width: 100%;"></div> </body> I have no control on the portal, so the only thing I can modify is the widget itself. I also tried to set the height for the <body>, but same thing. Any idea on why it's not working in IE? Thanks!

  • How can Excel 2007 / 2010 consume a REST web service?

    - by jallen
    What options exist to consume a REST web service from within Excel 2007 / 2010? I can use XML Maps to consume a basic XML list, but that doesn't let me build a dynamic URL (so I could include parameters). For example, I can add an XML Map to Excel for http://machine/service/level/5 and display the values in the workbook just fine - no problem there. The real question is, how can I dynamically change the /5 part of the URL to come from another cell in excel? That way I can have a couple of cells that have the options (what ID, what name, etc.) and whenever those values change (ideally) a new dynamic URL would be constructed and the XML map would be refreshed. Is such a thing possible? Does anyone else have a better way to take some parameters, call a web service (REST or SOAP, I'm not picky) and shove the results back into excel for further manipulation?

  • School Project for final year

    - by pundit
    Hi people, I'm in final year of my degree and it is required that i do a final year project. I have decided to do something on adaptive websites that implements customisation, personalisation and basically adaptation via heat maps and weblogs. So for a prototype i would be designing a website for tertairy level students and see if these technologies improve the usbability of the site. i would model it after my school's website. So here's the question, What would be a better language to use.. i have some knowledge in struts 2 framework and some knowledge in php. could say a newbie at both.. so i was wondering what would be the easier and faster way to go. php or the struts2 framework? thanks.

  • Ruby on Rails controller-view refactoring

    - by Dimitar Vouldjeff
    Hello, In my app I am using the ym4r-gm plugin, which allows you to play with the Google Maps API... I put the map "setup" in the controller: @map = GMap.new("div_map") @map.control_init(:large_map => true, :map_type => true) @map.center_zoom_init([47.0, 26.0], 7) ... And only render @map in the view. So my first question is whether I am using the right approach of "diving" this code? And the second question is: I have to models, which are rendering the same map (only the resources are different). Where should I put my refactored method that renders the map? In the application controller, maybe? Thanks in advance, I hope you will understand me!

  • How can I try a new language or framework without installing it?

    - by flamingLogos
    With so many languages and frameworks that exist, and with new ones appearing all the time, I don't have the time to download, install, and configure each one to evaluate it. In the past I've run across webapps that allow one to write or paste code into a window, and see the results in realtime in the browser, usually in a tutorial setting. What are your favorite sandbox sites for a given technology? Edit: @fretj provided the link to the excellent Google Code Playground (+1 upvote), but I thought that it was just for experimenting with Google's own apps (Search, Maps, Earth, Language, etc). But it turns out that it contains a few hidden gems: In addition to their apps, you can try out the many Javascript libraries that they host including jQuery, jQuery UI, MooTools, Dojo, and Prototype Scriptaculous. They're all hidden under the Libraries category in the "Pick an API" box. I overlooked the category because I thought it was for an app called Google Libraries. There's also a Javascript category for Javascript itself.

  • Under what circumstances does Groovy use AbstractConcurrentMap?

    - by Electrons_Ahoy
    (Specifically, org.codehaus.groovy.util.AbstractConcurrentMap) While doing some profiling of our application thats mixed Java/Groovy, I'm seeing a lot of references to the AbstractConcurrentMap class, none of which are explicit in the code base. Does groovy use this class when maps are instantiated in the groovy dynamic def myMap = [:] style? Are there rules somewhere about when groovy chooses to use this as opposed to, say, java.util.HashMap? And does anyone have any performance information comparing the two? My rough "eyeball check" says that AbstractConcurrentMap seems to be much slower - anyone know if I'm right?

  • UI View Controller crashes after interruption

    - by nosuic
    Given the multitasking of iOS I thought it wouldn't be a pain to pause and resume my app, by pressing the home button or due to a phone call, but for a particular view controller it crashes. The navigation bar is working fine i.e. when I tap "Back" it's ok, but if I try to tap controls of the displayed UI View Controller then I get EXC_BAD_ACCESS.. =/ Please find the code of my problematic View Controller below. I'm not very sure about it myself, because I used loadView to build its View, but apart from this interruption problem it works fine. StoreViewController.h #import <UIKit/UIKit.h> @protocol StoreViewDelegate <NSObject> @optional - (void)DirectionsClicked:(double)lat:(double)lon; @end @interface StoreViewController : UIViewController { double latitude; double longitude; NSString *description; NSString *imageURL; short rating; NSString *storeType; NSString *offerType; UIImageView *imageView; UILabel *descriptionLabel; id<StoreViewDelegate> storeViewDel; } @property (nonatomic) double latitude; @property (nonatomic) double longitude; @property (nonatomic) short rating; @property (nonatomic,retain) NSString *description; @property (nonatomic,retain) NSString *imageURL; @property (nonatomic,retain) NSString *storeType; @property (nonatomic,retain) NSString *offerType; @property (assign) id<StoreViewDelegate> storeViewDel; @end StoreViewController.m #import "StoreViewController.h" #import <QuartzCore/QuartzCore.h> @interface StoreViewController() -(CGSize) calcLabelSize:(NSString *)string withFont:(UIFont *)font maxSize:(CGSize)maxSize; @end @implementation StoreViewController @synthesize storeViewDel, longitude, latitude, description, imageURL, rating, offerType, storeType; - (void)mapsButtonClicked:(id)sender { } - (void)loadView { UIView *storeView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f)]; // Colours UIColor *lightBlue = [[UIColor alloc] initWithRed:(189.0f / 255.0f) green:(230.0f / 255.0f) blue:(252.0f / 255.0f) alpha:1.0f]; UIColor *darkBlue = [[UIColor alloc] initWithRed:(28.0f/255.0f) green:(157.0f/255.0f) blue:(215.0f/255.0f) alpha:1.0f]; // Layout int width = self.navigationController.view.frame.size.width; int height = self.navigationController.view.frame.size.height; float firstRowHeight = 100.0f; int margin = width / 20; int imgWidth = (width - 3 * margin) / 2; // Set ImageView imageView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(margin, margin, imgWidth, imgWidth)]; CALayer *imgLayer = [imageView layer]; [imgLayer setMasksToBounds:YES]; [imgLayer setCornerRadius:10.0f]; [imgLayer setBorderWidth:4.0f]; [imgLayer setBorderColor:[lightBlue CGColor]]; // Load default image NSData *imageData = [NSData dataWithContentsOfFile:@"thumb-null.png"]; UIImage *image = [UIImage imageWithData:imageData]; [imageView setImage:image]; [storeView addSubview:imageView]; // Set Rating UIImageView *ratingView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(3 * width / 4 - 59.0f, margin, 118.0f, 36.0f)]; UIImage *ratingImage = [UIImage imageNamed:@"bb-rating-0.png"]; [ratingView setImage:ratingImage]; [ratingImage release]; [storeView addSubview:ratingView]; // Set Get Directions button UIButton *btn = [[UIButton alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(3 * width / 4 - 71.5f, 36.0f + 2*margin, 143.0f, 63.0f)]; [btn addTarget:self action:@selector(mapsButtonClicked:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside]; UIImage *mapsImgUp = [UIImage imageNamed:@"bb-maps-up.png"]; [btn setImage:mapsImgUp forState:UIControlStateNormal]; [mapsImgUp release]; UIImage *mapsImgDown = [UIImage imageNamed:@"bb-maps-down.png"]; [btn setImage:mapsImgDown forState:UIControlStateHighlighted]; [mapsImgDown release]; [storeView addSubview:btn]; [btn release]; // Set Description Text UIScrollView *descriptionView = [[UIScrollView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0.0f, imgWidth + 2 * margin, width, height - firstRowHeight)]; descriptionView.backgroundColor = lightBlue; CGSize s = [self calcLabelSize:description withFont:[UIFont systemFontOfSize:18.0f] maxSize:CGSizeMake(width, 9999.0f)]; descriptionLabel = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(margin, margin, width - 2 * margin, s.height)]; descriptionLabel.lineBreakMode = UILineBreakModeWordWrap; descriptionLabel.numberOfLines = 0; descriptionLabel.font = [UIFont systemFontOfSize:18.0f]; descriptionLabel.textColor = darkBlue; descriptionLabel.text = description; descriptionLabel.backgroundColor = lightBlue; [descriptionView addSubview:descriptionLabel]; [storeView addSubview:descriptionView]; [descriptionLabel release]; [lightBlue release]; [darkBlue release]; self.view = storeView; [storeView release]; } - (void)didReceiveMemoryWarning { // Releases the view if it doesn't have a superview.

  • javascript memory leak

    - by hhj
    I have a some javascript (used with google maps api) that I am testing on IE and Chrome and noticed memory leak symptoms in IE only: when I refresh the page continuously, the amount of memory used in IE keeps growing (fast), but in Chrome it stays constant. Without posting all of the code (as it is rather long), can I get some suggestions as to what to look out for? What could cause the memory to keep growing like this in IE on page refreshes? Like I said I know its hard without code, but I'd like to see if any generic advice works first. Thanks.

    Quoted from this answer: Cost of tools: JavaME would be cheapest, followed by Symbian, Android then iPhone. I want to get started with mobile phone programing,but I don't see where Symbian does cost, as its SDK is available for free. Anyone knows? BTW,many people say Symbian only supports Symbian C++, but after reading its document, it seems it also support Java, is this feature newly added?
