  • too many threads due to synch communication

    - by MasoudIzzy
    I'm using threads and xmlrpclib in python at the same time. Periodically, I create a bunch of thread to complete a service on a remote server via xmlrpclib. The problem is that, there are times that the remote server doesn't answer. This causes the thread to wait forever for a response which it never gets. Over time, number of threads in this state increases and will reach the maximum number of allowed threads on the system (I'm using fedora). I tried to use socket.setdefaulttimeout(10); but the exception that is created by that will cause the server to defunct. I used it at server side but it seems that it doesn't work :/ Any idea how can I handle this issue?

  • Get gprof to profile based on wall-clock time?

    - by jetwolf
    My understanding is that by default gprof takes into account CPU time. Is there a way to get it to profile based on wall-clock time? My program does a lot of disk i/o, so the CPU time it uses only represents a fraction of the actual execution time. I need to know which portions of the disk i/o take up the most time.

  • I don't understand Application Domains

    - by Jeremy Edwards
    .NET has this concept of Application Domains which from what I understand can be used to load an assembly into memory. I've done some research on Application Domains as well as go to my local book store for some additional knowledge on this subject matter but it seems very scarce. All I know that I can do with Application Domains is to load assemblies in memory and I can unload them when I want. What are the capabilities other that I have mentioned of Application Domains? Do Threads respect Application Domains boundaries? Are there any drawbacks from loading Assemblies in different Application Domains other than the main Application Domains beyond performance of communication? Links to resources that discuss Application Domains would be nice as well. I've already checked out MSDN which doesn't have that much information about them.

  • Array of Structs Initialization....

    - by user69514
    Hi I am working on a program where I have to initialize a deck of cards. I am using a struct to represent a card. However I'm not filling it correctly as I get a bunch of zero's when I display the deck of cards. I believe my mistake is in this line but I'm not sure: struct card temp = {"Clubs", value, false}; The code: void initCards(){ int count = 0; int location = 0; const int hand = 12; //add hearts int value=2; while( count < hand ){ struct card temp = {"Hearts", value, false}; cards[location] = temp; value++; count++; } count = 0; //add diamonts value = 2; while( count < hand ){ struct card temp = {"Diamonds", value, false}; cards[count] = temp; value++; count++; } //add spades count = 0; value = 2; while( count < hand ){ struct card temp = {"Spades", value, false}; cards[count] = temp; value++; count++; } //add clubs count = 0; value = 2; while( count < hand ){ struct card temp = {"Clubs", value, false}; cards[count] = temp; value++; count++; } //print the deck for(int i=0; i<52; i++){ cout << cards[i].type << " " << cards[i].rank << endl; } }

  • Construct a Netflix Affiliate URL to a search result page?

    - by Felix
    I have a Netflix Affiliate account, but I don't want to direct users to the homepage for them to create an account, I want to direct them to a search result page. The reason for this is that on our site we have lots of titles but they can't be reliably linked to a single Netflix result programmatically, so we would prefer if we could direct users to a search page, and if the user signs up, get the revenue. Is this possible? I find the whole Netflix-Affiliate-but-Google-Affiliate scheme a bit daunting.

  • Forcing Flex to update the screen?

    - by ABBarton
    This may be a bit of a beginners question, but I can't for the life of me figure it out. I'm using flex to develop a GUI for a large project, specifically a status bar along the bottom. Within my StatusBar class is a ProgressBar, which other classes doing work can tell to update(change bar completion and label) as they progress. The problem I'm encountering is that flex won't update whats shown on the screen until it's too late, for example ProgressBar initialized, 0% done some class sets the ProgressBar to be 12% done some class does some work some class sets the ProgressBar to be 56% done Whats happening is the 12% done is never displaying, it just hangs at 0% during the work, then skips right to 56% done. I've tried to understand the lifecycle of a flex component (invalidation and validation), and I think I understand it and am applying it correctly, but it's not working at all. I need to tell flex to redraw my StatusBar (or at least the ProgressBar within) after some class sets it to be 12% done, but before some class starts doing its work. How do I do this?

  • Possible to Dynamic Form Generation Using PHP global variables

    - by J M 4
    I am currently a fairly new programmer but am trying to build a registration page for a medical insurance idea we have which captures individual information and subsequent pieces of information about that individual's sub parts. In this case, it is a fight promoter enrolling his 15+ boxers for fight testing services. Right now, I have the site fully laid out to accept 7 fighters worth of information. This is collected during the manager's enrollment. However, each fighter's information is passed and stored in session super globals such as: $_SESSION['F1Firstname']; and $_SESSION['F3SSN3'];. The issue I am running into is this, I want to create a drop down menu selector for the manager to add information for up to 20-30 fighters. Right now I use PHP to state: if ($_SESSION['Num_Fighters'] 6) ... then display the table form fields to collect consumer data. If I have to build hidden elements for 30 fighters AND provide javascript/php validation (yes I am doing both) then I fear the file size for the document will be unnecessarily large for the maanger who only wants to enroll 2 fighters. Can anybody help?

  • Blackberry Widget Packager saves my files in strange places

    - by chibineku
    I have just installed the Blackberry Widget Packager and Blackberry Web Plug-In for Eclipse, and everything works fine, but my files are output to strange places. For example, I tried putting my zipped source files in the folder Blackberry Widget Packager/web and I got an error during packaging. Packaging works when the .zip is in the same directory as wwbp, though. When a widget is successfully created, the executable .jar file and the .rapc files are put in some stupid folder like users/user/temp/widgetname094098456, and the other files are split between two folders in Blackberry Widget Packager/bin. This is slightly annoying as I don't want to be spending time herding my files. Anyone have any thoughts on why my files are being scattered like this?

  • What could cause Vista machines to degrade in performance?

    - by gencha
    We have installed several machines running Windows Vista at a client site. These machines run the same set of applications each day and are not operated with by any user. They mainly run a 3D application for digital signage purposes. After a few months I noticed that several machines suffer from really bad stuttering. The performance is unacceptable. At first I figured it was faulty hardware. But after putting a fresh image on them, they run perfectly fine again. These are Core i7 machines with GTX 280 graphics adapters. They should be able to handle the workload without any trouble (and they do, at least for a while). I really have no idea how to track down the source of this issue. Especially since not all of the machines display the same issue.

  • How to Disable Access to the Registry in Windows 7

    - by Mysticgeek
    If you don’t know what your doing in the Registry, you can mess up your computer pretty good. Today we show you how to prevent users from accessing the Registry and making any changes to it. Using Local Group Policy Editor Note: This method uses Group Policy Editor which is not available in Home versions of Windows. First type gpedit.msc into the Search box in the Start menu. When Group Policy Editor opens, navigate to User Configuration \ Administrative Templates then select System. Under Setting in the right panel double-click on Prevent access to registry editing tools. Select the radio button next to Enabled, click OK, then close out of Group Policy Editor. Now if a user tries to access the Registry… They will get the following message advising they cannot access it.   Using Registry Enabler & Disabler 3 If you’re using Home or Starter version of Windows 7, you can use a neat utility called Registry Enabler & Disabler (link below). This app works on XP and Vista as well. There is no installation involved so you can run it from a flash drive, disable the registry, then take the flash drive with you while a the user is on the machine.   Again, if the user tries to access the Registry they will get the following error… Using one of these options will stop users from gaining access to the Registry or running any registry hacks. Of course if you have a shared computer, you may want to set up other users with a Standard Account, as they won’t be able to make changes to the Registry anyway.

  • Extending UPK with Enablement Packs

    - by bill.x.miller
    We've mentioned in earlier posts that UPK Development keeps the tool up to date through the use of Enable Service Packs (ESP'S). Regular releases ensure that the UPK Developer supports updates to targeted applications as well as new Java updates. Installing an ESP is quick and easy. • Download the latest ESP from My Oracle Support (requires a My Oracle Support account). • Run the setup for each client machine that uses the UPK Developer • Run the Library Updates from one of the clients (multi-user only) Enablement Pack 1 for UPK 3.6.1 contains new features such as a new Tabbed Gateway, FireFox 3.6 support for the Player and SmartHelp, and several new target application versions. But a very exciting feature that is part of this ESP is now available to all Oracle E-Business Suite customers. Until now, a requirement for EBS customers who wish to record UPK content is to install delivered library files (CUSTOM.pll and ODPN.pll) on to the Oracle Application Server. These files were required to present context information to the UPK Developer so that content can be launched in a context sensitive manner. This requirement involved the Oracle system administrator to transfer, install and compile these libraries into the system. Usually a simple process, however, we understood the need to streamline the procedure. With ESP 1 for UPK 3.6.1, these pll files are no longer required. Now, a simple procedure from within the EBS application can make context available to the UPK recorder. From the System Profile, search for UPK: Change the Site field to Enable UPK Recording. Save the Form. Context information will now be made available to the UPK Recorder without involving the System Administrator or DBA. The setting you see here makes context available to all client machines recording content with UPK and does not affect the performance of your EBS application.

  • How does this C# asp.net random password code work?

    - by quakkels
    Hello all, I'm new to .NET and C# and I'm trying to figure out how this code works: public static string CreateRandomPassword(int PasswordLength) { String _allowedChars = "abcdefghijkmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ23456789"; Byte[] randomBytes = new Byte[PasswordLength]; RNGCryptoServiceProvider rng = new RNGCryptoServiceProvider(); rng.GetBytes(randomBytes); char[] chars = new char[PasswordLength]; int allowedCharCount = _allowedChars.Length; for(int i = 0;i<PasswordLength;i++) { /// /// I don't understand how this line works: /// chars[i] = _allowedChars[(int)randomBytes[i] % allowedCharCount]; } return new string(chars); } I think I've got a pretty good handle on most of this. I haven't been able to understand the following line: chars[i] = _allowedChars[(int)randomBytes[i] % allowedCharCount]; I understand that the code generates random binary numbers and uses those random numbers in the for loop to select a character from the _allowedChars string. What I don't get is why this code uses the modulous operator (%) to get the _allowedChars index value. Thanks for any help

  • Single Page Navigation w/ Javascript and Back Button

    - by Khan
    Ok, so I have a "navigation" div and "content" div. When something on the navigation is clicked, I fade in the content div with the new data. Now, I would like to have the old data returned when the user hits the "back" button on his/her browser, but I'm having a hard time doing this. I know I can set the content to be a named anchor, so they stay on the same page with a breadcrumb trail. However, that's as far as I get. Can I listen for a back button click? Can I set content to display when a certain anchor name is reached? Thanks in advance for your help, SO.

  • How do I align ReSharpers "cleanup code" with Visual Studio's "format document"

    - by Thomas Jespersen
    I'm a big fan of ReSharpers "cleanup code" feature. Especially the Solution wide clean up. But I use Visual Studio's Ctrl+K+D (Format document), it formats the code slightly differed than ReSharper. I'm on a quest to align ReSharper with Visual Studio (not the other way... because you can not share Visual Studio settings in the solution/source control system). So I'm after something like this: <Configuration> <CodeStyleSettings> <Sharing>SOLUTION</Sharing> <CSharp> <FormatSettings> <SPACE_AROUND_MULTIPLICATIVE_OP>True</SPACE_AROUND_MULTIPLICATIVE_OP> <SPACE_BEFORE_TYPEOF_PARENTHESES>False</SPACE_BEFORE_TYPEOF_PARENTHESES> </FormatSettings> </CSharp> </CodeStyleSettings> </Configuration> Which other settings will help ReSharper format code like Visual Studio?

  • Delphi Unicode String Type Stored Directly at its Address

    - by Andreas Rejbrand
    I want a string type that is Unicode and that stores the string directly at the adress of the variable, as is the case of the (Ansi-only) ShortString type. I mean, if I declare a S: ShortString and let S := 'My String', then, at @S, I will find the length of the string (as one byte, so the string cannot contain more than 255 characters) followed by the ANSI-encoded string itself. What I would like is a Unicode variant of this. That is, I want a string type such that, at @S, I will find a unsigned 32-bit integer containing the length of the string in bytes (or in characters, which is half the number of bytes) followed by the Unicode representation of the string. I have tried WideString, UnicodeString, and RawByteString, but they all appear only to store an adress at @S, and the actual string somewhere else (I guess this has do do with reference counting and such). I suspect that there is no built-in type to use, and that I have to come up with my own way of storing text the way I want (which actually is fun). Am I right?

  • Removing PDF attachments via itext

    - by r00fus
    I'm trying to remove attachments from a number of my pdf files (I can extract via pdftk, so preserving them is not an issue). I coded the following based on an example found from a google search: import java.io.FileOutputStream; import java.io.IOException; import com.lowagie.text.*; import com.lowagie.text.pdf.*; class pdfremoveattachment { public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException, DocumentException { if (args.length < 2) { System.out.println("Usage: java PDFremoveAttachments source.pdf target.pdf"); System.exit(1); } PdfReader sourcePDF = new PdfReader(args[0]); removeAttachments(sourcePDF); FileOutputStream targetFOS = new FileOutputStream(args[1]); PdfStamper targetPDF = new PdfStamper(sourcePDF,targetFOS); targetPDF.close(); } public static void removeAttachments(PdfReader reader) { PdfDictionary catalog = reader.getCatalog(); // System.out.println(catalog.getAsDict(PdfName.NAME)); // this would print "null" PdfDictionary names = (PdfDictionary)PdfReader.getPdfObject(catalog.get(PdfName.NAMES)); // System.out.println(names.toString()); //this returns NPE if( names != null) { PdfDictionary files = (PdfDictionary) PdfReader.getPdfObject(names.get(PdfName.FILEATTACHMENT)); if( files!= null ){ for( Object key : files.getKeys() ){ files.remove((PdfName)key); } files = (PdfDictionary) PdfReader.getPdfObject(names.get(PdfName.EMBEDDEDFILES)); } if( files!= null ){ for( Object key : files.getKeys() ){ files.remove((PdfName)key); } reader.removeUnusedObjects(); } } } } If anyone knows how I might be able to remove attachments, I'd greatly appreciate a reply.

  • Shopify: Replacing Product Radio Buttons With Dropdown Select

    - by Wade D Ouellet
    Hi, With Shopify I am trying to alter my product template to display a dropdown select list instead of radio buttons for my product variants. I managed to do this but when you try and add a product to the cart from the list it says, "No variant ID was passed." Here is the code for their radio buttons: <ul id="product-variants"> {% for variant in product.variants %} <li> {% if variant.available %} <input type="radio" name="id" value="{{variant.id}}" id="radio_{{variant.id}}" style="vertical-align: middle;" {%if forloop.first%} checked="checked" {%endif%} /> <label for="radio_{{variant.id}}"><span class="sku">{{ variant.sku }}</span> {%if variant.title != 'Default' %}{{ variant.title }} for {%endif%} <span class="price">{{ variant.price | money_with_currency }}</span></label> {% else %} <del style="margin-left: 26px">{{ variant.title }}</del>&nbsp;<span>Sold Out!</span> {% endif %} </li> {% endfor %} </ul> Here is the code for my dropdown select at this point: <select id="product-variants"> {% for variant in product.variants %} <li> {% if variant.available %} <option value="{{variant.id}}" selected="selected"><span class="sku">{{ variant.sku }}</span> {%if variant.title != 'Default' %}{{ variant.title }} for {%endif%} <span class="price">{{ variant.price | money_with_currency }}</span></option> {% else %} <del style="margin-left: 26px">{{ variant.title }}</del>&nbsp;<span>Sold Out!</span> {% endif %} </li> {% endfor %} </select> Thanks, Wade

  • Regular expression works normally, but fails when placed in an XML schema

    - by Eli Courtwright
    I have a simple doc.xml file which contains a single root element with a Timestamp attribute: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <root Timestamp="04-21-2010 16:00:19.000" /> I'd like to validate this document against a my simple schema.xsd to make sure that the Timestamp is in the correct format: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <xs:schema attributeFormDefault="unqualified" elementFormDefault="qualified" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"> <xs:element name="root"> <xs:complexType> <xs:attribute name="Timestamp" use="required" type="timeStampType"/> </xs:complexType> </xs:element> <xs:simpleType name="timeStampType"> <xs:restriction base="xs:string"> <xs:pattern value="(0[0-9]{1})|(1[0-2]{1})-(3[0-1]{1}|[0-2]{1}[0-9]{1})-[2-9]{1}[0-9]{3} ([0-1]{1}[0-9]{1}|2[0-3]{1}):[0-5]{1}[0-9]{1}:[0-5]{1}[0-9]{1}.[0-9]{3}" /> </xs:restriction> </xs:simpleType> </xs:schema> So I use the lxml Python module and try to perform a simple schema validation and report any errors: from lxml import etree schema = etree.XMLSchema( etree.parse("schema.xsd") ) doc = etree.parse("doc.xml") if not schema.validate(doc): for e in schema.error_log: print e.message My XML document fails validation with the following error messages: Element 'root', attribute 'Timestamp': [facet 'pattern'] The value '04-21-2010 16:00:19.000' is not accepted by the pattern '(0[0-9]{1})|(1[0-2]{1})-(3[0-1]{1}|[0-2]{1}[0-9]{1})-[2-9]{1}[0-9]{3} ([0-1]{1}[0-9]{1}|2[0-3]{1}):[0-5]{1}[0-9]{1}:[0-5]{1}[0-9]{1}.[0-9]{3}'. Element 'root', attribute 'Timestamp': '04-21-2010 16:00:19.000' is not a valid value of the atomic type 'timeStampType'. So it looks like my regular expression must be faulty. But when I try to validate the regular expression at the command line, it passes: >>> import re >>> pat = '(0[0-9]{1})|(1[0-2]{1})-(3[0-1]{1}|[0-2]{1}[0-9]{1})-[2-9]{1}[0-9]{3} ([0-1]{1}[0-9]{1}|2[0-3]{1}):[0-5]{1}[0-9]{1}:[0-5]{1}[0-9]{1}.[0-9]{3}' >>> assert re.match(pat, '04-21-2010 16:00:19.000') >>> I'm aware that XSD regular expressions don't have every feature, but the documentation I've found indicates that every feature that I'm using should work. So what am I mis-understanding, and why does my document fail?

  • parsing HTML on the iPhone

    - by Ben Alpert
    Can anyone recommend a C or Objective-C library for HTML parsing? It needs to handle messy HTML code that won't quite validate. Does such a library exist, or am I better off just trying to use regular expressions?
