  • Web Services vs Persistent Sockets

    - by dsquires
    I plan on doing a little benchmarking around this question, myself. But I thought it would be good to get some initial feedback from "the community". Has anyone out there done any analysis regarding the pros and cons of these two technologies? My thoughts: Opening and closing TCP/IP connections for web service calls is relatively expensive compared to persistent connections. Dealing with intermittent connection errors and state, etc... would be easier with a web service based framework. You don't see World of Warcraft using web services. One question that I can't seem to find much of answer for anywhere (even on here)... are the limits on the # of persistent connections a single network card can support, etc?

  • Batch vs SQL statement

    - by AspOnMyNet
    a) A SQL statement is a single SQL command (for example, SELECT * FROM table1 or SET NOCOUNT ON). A batch on the other hand, is a number of SQL statements sent to the server for execution as a whole unit. The statements in the batch are compiled into a single execution plan. Batches are separated by the GO command So the only difference between SQL statement and a Batch is that each SQL statement is sent to server as a separate unit and thus is compiled separately from other SQL statements, while SQL statements in a Batch are compiled together? b) I assume one of major differences between a stored procedure and a Batch is that stored procedures are precompiled while Batches aren’t? thanx

  • Windows batch files: .bat vs .cmd?

    - by Chris Noe
    As I understand it, .bat is the old 16-bit naming convention, and .cmd is for 32-bit Windows, i.e., starting with NT. But I continue to see .bat files everywhere, and they seem to work exactly the same using either suffix. Assuming that my code will never need to run on anyhting older than NT, does it really matter which way I name my batch files, or is there some gotcha awaiting me by using the wrong suffix?

  • OOP vs PP for algorithms

    - by Ilian
    Which paradigm is better for design and analysis of algorithms? Which is faster? Because I have a subject called Design and Analysis of Algorithms in university and have a time limit for programs. Is OOP slower than Procedure programming? Or the time difference is not big?

  • Eager loading vs. many queries with PHP, SQLite

    - by Mike
    I have an application that has an n+1 query problem, but when I implemented a way to load the data eagerly, I found absolutely no performance gain. I do use an identity map, so objects are only created once. Here's a benchmark of ~3000 objects. first query + first object creation: 0.00636100769043 sec. memory usage: 190008 bytes iterate through all objects (queries + objects creation): 1.98003697395 sec. memory usage: 7717116 bytes And here's one when I use eager loading. query: 0.0881109237671 sec. memory usage: 6948004 bytes object creation: 1.91053009033 sec. memory usage: 12650368 bytes iterate through all objects: 1.96605396271 sec. memory usage: 12686836 bytes So my questions are Is SQLite just magically lightning fast when it comes to small queries? (I'm used to working with MySQL.) Does this just seem wrong to anyone? Shouldn't eager loading have given much better performance?

  • UI Terminology: Logon vs Login

    - by Brad Leach
    I am crafting an application and cannot decide whether to use the terms Login/out or Logon/off. Is there a more correct option between these two? Should I use something else entirely (like "Sign on/off"). In terms of usability, as long as I am consistent it probably doesn't matter which terms I choose, but I did wonder about the origins of the terms - and whether one or another makes more grammatical sense. I also care deeply about the application I am creating, and want to take the time to investigate all aspects of its user experience.

  • OpenLayers, Layers: Tiled vs. single tile

    - by Chau
    Each time we add a new layer to our OpenLayers based website (data provided primarily by a GeoServer server), we discuss whether to use a single-tile or a tiled approach. Some of the parameters we evaluate are the following: Using the tiled approach we get: Slow but continuous buildup of the viewport Lots of small images Client side caching possibilities Blocking of the loading pipeline (6 requests at a time) Jerky feeling when navigating during load Using the single-tile approach we get: Smoother feeling when navigating during load Time delay before layer is loaded One large image for each layer No caching of the single tile We have a lot of data editing in the layers, thus a tile-cache might not be that efficient. Are there any best-practices when it comes to tiling? Progressing towards infinitely fast hardware and unlimited data connections, the discussion becomes irrelevant, but what configuration do you percieve as the most user-pleasing?

  • WP: AesManaged encryption vs. mcrypt_encrypt

    - by invalidusername
    I'm trying to synchronize my encryption and decryption methods between C# and PHP but something seems to be going wrong. In the Windows Phone 7 SDK you can use AESManaged to encrypt your data I use the following method: public static string EncryptA(string dataToEncrypt, string password, string salt) { AesManaged aes = null; MemoryStream memoryStream = null; CryptoStream cryptoStream = null; try { //Generate a Key based on a Password, Salt and HMACSHA1 pseudo-random number generator Rfc2898DeriveBytes rfc2898 = new Rfc2898DeriveBytes(password, Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(salt)); //Create AES algorithm with 256 bit key and 128-bit block size aes = new AesManaged(); aes.Key = rfc2898.GetBytes(aes.KeySize / 8); aes.IV = new byte[] { 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0 }; // rfc2898.GetBytes(aes.BlockSize / 8); // to check my results against those of PHP var blaat1 = Convert.ToBase64String(aes.Key); var blaat2 = Convert.ToBase64String(aes.IV); //Create Memory and Crypto Streams memoryStream = new MemoryStream(); cryptoStream = new CryptoStream(memoryStream, aes.CreateEncryptor(), CryptoStreamMode.Write); //Encrypt Data byte[] data = Encoding.Unicode.GetBytes(dataToEncrypt); cryptoStream.Write(data, 0, data.Length); cryptoStream.FlushFinalBlock(); //Return Base 64 String string result = Convert.ToBase64String(memoryStream.ToArray()); return result; } finally { if (cryptoStream != null) cryptoStream.Close(); if (memoryStream != null) memoryStream.Close(); if (aes != null) aes.Clear(); } } I solved the problem of generating the Key. The Key and IV are similar as those on the PHP end. But then the final step in the encryption is going wrong. here is my PHP code <?php function pbkdf2($p, $s, $c, $dk_len, $algo = 'sha1') { // experimentally determine h_len for the algorithm in question static $lengths; if (!isset($lengths[$algo])) { $lengths[$algo] = strlen(hash($algo, null, true)); } $h_len = $lengths[$algo]; if ($dk_len > (pow(2, 32) - 1) * $h_len) { return false; // derived key is too long } else { $l = ceil($dk_len / $h_len); // number of derived key blocks to compute $t = null; for ($i = 1; $i <= $l; $i++) { $f = $u = hash_hmac($algo, $s . pack('N', $i), $p, true); // first iterate for ($j = 1; $j < $c; $j++) { $f ^= ($u = hash_hmac($algo, $u, $p, true)); // xor each iterate } $t .= $f; // concatenate blocks of the derived key } return substr($t, 0, $dk_len); // return the derived key of correct length } } $password = 'test'; $salt = 'saltsalt'; $text = "texttoencrypt"; #$iv_size = mcrypt_get_iv_size(MCRYPT_RIJNDAEL_128, MCRYPT_MODE_CBC); #echo $iv_size . '<br/>'; #$iv = mcrypt_create_iv($iv_size, MCRYPT_RAND); #print_r (mcrypt_list_algorithms()); $iv = "\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00"; $key = pbkdf2($password, $salt, 1000, 32); echo 'key: ' . base64_encode($key) . '<br/>'; echo 'iv: ' . base64_encode($iv) . '<br/>'; echo '<br/><br/>'; function addpadding($string, $blocksize = 32){ $len = strlen($string); $pad = $blocksize - ($len % $blocksize); $string .= str_repeat(chr($pad), $pad); return $string; } echo 'text: ' . $text . '<br/>'; echo 'text: ' . addpadding($text) . '<br/>'; // -- works till here $crypttext = mcrypt_encrypt(MCRYPT_RIJNDAEL_256, $key, $text, MCRYPT_MODE_CBC, $iv); echo '1.' . $crypttext . '<br/>'; $crypttext = base64_encode($crypttext); echo '2.' . $crypttext . '<br/>'; $crypttext = mcrypt_encrypt(MCRYPT_RIJNDAEL_256, $key, addpadding($text), MCRYPT_MODE_CBC, $iv); echo '1.' . $crypttext . '<br/>'; $crypttext = base64_encode($crypttext); echo '2.' . $crypttext . '<br/>'; ?> So to point out, the Key and IV look similar on both .NET and PHP, but something seems to be going wrong in the final call when executing mcrypt_encrypt(). The end result, the encrypted string, differs from .NET. Can anybody tell me what i'm doing wrong. As far as i can see everything should be correct. Thank you! EDIT: Additional information on the AESManaged object in .NET Keysize = 256 Mode = CBC Padding = PKCS7

  • SPWeb.Webs, Site vs SubSite

    - by noob.spt
    Hi, I have a very basic question here. I am confused between SPSite. SiteCollection and SPWeb. So my understanding is (or what I could research on this) that, http://My_server TOP Level SIte or SPWEbApplication http://My_server/My_site Site Collection or SPSite Now a site under SPSite that will be referenced through SPWeb. So what are we getting when using SPWeb.Webs. What is a Subsite? Please let me know if I need to rephrase the question or more info is needed. Thanks. SPWeb mySite = SPContext.Current.Web; SPWebCollection sites = mySite.Webs; foreach (SPWeb subSite in sites) { Response.Write(SPEncode.HtmlEncode(subSite.Title) + "<BR>"); }

  • zen of Python vs with statement - philosophical pondering

    - by NeuronQ
    I don't intend to simply waste your time, but: has it occurred to you too, while using Python's with statement that it really is contrary to the 5th line of "The Zen of Python" that goes "Flat is better than nested"? Can any enlightened Python guru share me some of their insights on this? (I always find that one more level of indentation pops up in my code every time I use with instead of f.close()... and it's not like I'm not gonna use try: ... finally: ... anyways and thus the benefits of with still elude me, even as I grow to like and understand Python more and more...)

  • jQuery RJS inserting string vs dom.

    - by Dmitriy Likhten
    So I am trying to use jQuery to insert data from an ajax call. I actually use the jquery.form plugin, and have the ajax form submitted with a dataType: 'script'. The response is a jquery expression which contains a <%= javascript_escape(render ...) %> erb tag (similar to what the railscasts episode 136 instructs to do). However the end result is that the full text of the render is inserted as if that was the content to be inserted into the page, as text, not as dom elements. Could the fact that the render had some newlines at the beginning be the cause? Dom text: "\n \n &lt;li>....&lt;/li>" I also tried having jQuery just read the response as a script and execute it, and used the prototype-based rjs stuff, same effect, the text is inserted into the dom. Are there any reasons why such a behavior would be experienced? A bit of clarification: My response.js.erb is jQuery("#content").append("<%= escape_javascript(render(:partial => "widgets")) %>"); jQuery("#information").text("Finally, something happened!"); The full text inside the append() call is inserted as text into #content.

  • $1 vs \1 in Perl regex substitutions

    - by Mr Foo Bar
    I'm debugging some code and wondered if there is any practical difference between $1 and \1 in Perl regex substitutions For example: my $package_name = "Some::Package::ButNotThis"; $package_name =~ s{^(\w+::\w+)}{$1}; print $package_name; # Some::Package This following line seems functionally equivalent: $package_name =~ s{^(\w+::w+)}{\1}; Are there subtle differences between these two statements? Do they behave differently in different versions of Perl?

  • html5 vs flash - full comparison chart anywhere?

    - by iddqd
    So since Steve Jobs said Flash sucks and implied that HTML5 can do everything Flash can without the need for a Plugin, I keep hearing those exact words from a lot of People. I would really like to have a Chart somewhere (similar to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_layout_engines_%28HTML5%29#Form_elements_and_attributes ) that I can just show to those people. Showing all the little things that Flash can do right now, that HTML5/Ajax/CSS is not yet even thinking about. But of course also the things that HTML5 does better. I would like to see details compared like audio playback, realtime audio processing, byte level access, bitmap data manipulation, webcam access, binary sockets, stuff in the works such as P2P technology (adobe stratus) and all the stuff I don't know about myself. Ideally with examples of what can be accomplished with, lets say Binary Sockets (such as a POP3 client) because otherwise it won't mean a lot to non-programmers since they will just say "well we can do without Binary Sockets". And ideally with some current benchmarks and some examples of websites that use this technology. I've searched the web and am surprised not to find anything. So is there such a comparison somewhere? Or does anybody want to create this and post it to Wikipedia? ;-)

  • Hashes vs Numeric id's

    - by Karan Bhangui
    When creating a web application that some how displays the display of a unique identifier for a recurring entity (videos on YouTube, or book section on a site like mine), would it be better to use a uniform length identifier like a hash or the unique key of the item in the database (1, 2, 3, etc). Besides revealing a little, what I think is immaterial, information about the internals of your app, why would using a hash be better than just using the unique id? In short: Which is better to use as a publicly displayed unique identifier - a hash value, or a unique key from the database? Edit: I'm opening up this question again because Dmitriy brought up the good point of not tying down the naming to db specific property. Will this sort of tie down prevent me from optimizing/normalizing the database in the future? The platform uses php/python with ISAM /w MySQL.

  • Junit vs TestNG

    - by Sam Merrell
    At work we are currently still using Junit3 to run our tests. We have been considering switching over to Junit4 for new tests being written but I have been keeping an eye on TestNG for a while now. What experiences have you all had with either Junit4 or TestNG and which seems to work better for very large numbers of tests. Having flexibility in writing tests is also important to us since our functional tests cover a wide aspect and need to be written in a variety of ways to get results. Old tests will not be re-written as they do their job just fine. What I would like to see in new tests though is flexibility in the way the test can be written, natural assertions, grouping, and easily distributed test executions.

  • PayPal: IPN vs PDT

    - by Tom
    Hi, I'm having some trouble choosing between PayPal's Instant Payment Notification (IPN) and Payment Data Transfer (PDT). Basically, users buy a one-off product on my site, pay on PayPal, and return to my site. I understand how IPN works but I'm now seeing that I might be able to trigger the various actions that take place after a successful purchase more easily with PDT, as the data gets returned there and then (as opposed to needing a separate listener). However, PayPal's PDT documentation contains this cryptic line: "PDT is not meant to be used with credit card or Express Checkout transactions." ... but I can't find anything further whatsoever on the topic. (1) Are credit cards REALLY not meant to be used with PDT? I would like more than a sentence. (2) Does that mean that a user must have/create a PayPal account to pay? (3) Does it mean that if I want to allow users to pay with their PayPal accounts AND/OR with credit cards directly, I must implement IPN? Could anyone who's gone through this kindly shed some light? Thank you.

  • NUnit vs Visual Studio 2010's MSTest?

    - by David White
    I realise that there are many older questions addressing the general question of NUnit v MSTest for versions of Visual Studio up to 2008 (such as this one). Microsoft have a history of getting things right in their 3rd version. For MSTest, that is VS2010. Have they done so with MSTest? Would you use it in a new project in preference to NUnit? My specific concerns: speed running tests within CruiseControl.NET (either commandline or MSBuild task) code coverage reports from CC.NET can you run MSTest tests in debug mode (We use ReSharper, so test-runners are not an issue for us. We have used NUnit for the last few years. We do not have TFS.)

  • Friend WithEvents in VB vs private in C#

    Hello, friends Who knows, why in vb.net WinForm projects the designer by default use the Friend WithEvents attributes and in C# - private ones. By ex, in a form.designer. .cs private Label Label1; .vb Friend WithEvents Label1 as Label; For WithEvents is more or less clear(for using Handles, apparently). But why Friend in VB and private in C#... Thanks.

  • VS 2010 web.config transformation

    - by Fabian Vilers
    Hi all, I need help on web.config transformation as I'm trying to do something not documented. My web.config has an empty connectionStrings element. In debug, I'd like the transformation tool to add a configSource="file.local" to the connectionStrings element. But in release, I'd like it to add a connectionString element. So, to summarize, I have <connectionStings> </connectionStings> And I need to transform it to <connectionStings configSource="file.local"> </connectionStings> And to: <connectionStings> <clear/> <add name="Abc" connectionSting="bla bla bla" provider="xxx" /> </connectionStings> Anybody has done this yet? Thanks in advance, Fabian
