  • whats wrong with this ruby hash?

    - by yaya3
    I'm pretty new to ruby, I keep getting the following error: in gem_original_require': ./helpers/navigation.rb:28: odd number list for Hash (SyntaxError) Any help appreciated... module Sinatra::Navigation def navigation @navigation nav = { primary[0] = { :title => "cheddar", :active => false, :children => { { :title => "cheese", :active => false }, { :title => "ham", :active => false } } }, primary[1] = { :title => "gorgonzola", :active => false, :children => { { :title => "What is the cheese?", :active => false }, { :title => "What cheese", :active => false }, { :title => "What does the cheese tell us?", :active => false, :children => { { :title => "Cheessus", :active => false }, { :title => "The impact of different cheeses / characteristics for cheese in relation to CHSE outcomes", :active => false } } } } } }

  • How to perform an NTLM challenge on the iPhone.

    - by toast
    I'm trying to access some web services in an iPhone application. If I GET to the .asmx page, I authenticate and get the WSDL as expected. However, if I POST to the .asmx page, setting the SOAPAction, Content-Type, Content-Length, and HTTPBody, I just keep getting didReceiveAuthenticationChallenge messages. Additionally, I'm trying to POST to IIS using Integrated Windows Authentication (IWA), which means I'm trying to negotiate an NTLM challenge.

  • Saving owned/child objects in Hibernate

    - by maxdj
    I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around the way hibernate objects work. Here's a little chunk of what my model looks like: JobOpening: @ManyToMany(fetch=FetchType.EAGER,cascade=CascadeType.ALL) @JoinTable( name="jobOpening_questionSet", joinColumns=@JoinColumn(name="jobOpenings_id"), inverseJoinColumns=@JoinColumn(name="questionSets_id") ) @IndexColumn(name="question_sets_idx",base=0,nullable=false) public List<QuestionSet> getQuestionSets() { return questionSets; } QuestionSet: @ManyToMany(mappedBy="questionSets",fetch=FetchType.EAGER) public Set<JobOpening> getJobOpenings() { return jobOpenings; } @OneToMany(cascade=CascadeType.ALL,fetch=FetchType.EAGER) @IndexColumn(name="questions_idx",base=0) @JoinColumn(name="questionset_id",nullable=false) public List<FormQuestion> getQuestions() { return questions; } FormQuestion: @ManyToOne @JoinColumn(name="questionset_id", insertable=false, updatable=false, nullable=false) @OnDelete(action=OnDeleteAction.CASCADE) public QuestionSet getQuestionSet() { return questionSet; } Now how would I go about, say, modifying a question in the question set, or changing which jobs a questionset is associated with? For example, to edit a question in a questionset, I imagine I should be able to just get the question via its id, change some values, and merge() it back in, but this doesn't work. I'm using Hibernate from Spring (appfuse), usually as detached objects.

  • Coding Conventions - Naming Enums

    - by Walter White
    Hi all, Is there a document describing how to name enumerations? My preference is that an enum is a type. So, for instance, you have an enum Fruit{Apple,Orange,Banana,Pear, ... } NetworkConnectionType{LAN,Data_3g,Data_4g, ... } I am opposed to naming it: FruitEnum NetworkConnectionTypeEnum I understand it is easy to pick off which files are enums, but then you would also have: NetworkConnectionClass FruitClass Also, is there a good document describing the same for constants, where to declare them, etc.?

  • What is the difference between connection and read timeout for sockets?

    - by corgrath
    3 questions: 1) What is the difference between connection and read timeout for sockets? 2) What does connection timeout set to "infinity" mean? In what situation can it remain in an infinitive loop? and what can trigger that the infinity-loop dies? 3) What does read timeout set to "infinity" mean? In what situation can it remain in an infinitive loop? and what can trigger that the infinity-loop dies?

  • C++: Where can I define the body for a private function?

    - by Martijn Courteaux
    Hi, I have a header like this (header guards not shown): class GameSystem { public: GameSystem(Game *pcGame); virtual ~GameSystem(); void Setup(); private: void InitGame(); void RunGame(); void ExitGame(); Game *m_pcGame; /* Properties */ int m_nWidth; int m_nHeight; int m_nFps; bool m_bFullscreen; }; Where can I define the body for InitGame(), RunGame() and ExitGame()? Can I define it in my .cpp file? If so, how? Or am I obliged to make their body in my .h file? I'm using Eclipse and I began typing: void GameSystem:: and then he doesn't suggest the private functions.

  • Parallel LINQ - PLINQ

    - by nmarun
    Turns out now with .net 4.0 we can run a query like a multi-threaded application. Say you want to query a collection of objects and return only those that meet certain conditions. Until now, we basically had one ‘control’ that iterated over all the objects in the collection, checked the condition on each object and returned if it passed. We obviously agree that if we can ‘break’ this task into smaller ones, assign each task to a different ‘control’ and ask all the controls to do their job - in-parallel, the time taken the finish the entire task will be much lower. Welcome to PLINQ. Let’s take some examples. I have the following method that uses our good ol’ LINQ. 1: private static void Linq(int lowerLimit, int upperLimit) 2: { 3: // populate an array with int values from lowerLimit to the upperLimit 4: var source = Enumerable.Range(lowerLimit, upperLimit); 5:  6: // Start a timer 7: Stopwatch stopwatch = new Stopwatch(); 8: stopwatch.Start(); 9:  10: // set the expectation => build the expression tree 11: var evenNumbers =   from num in source 12: where IsDivisibleBy(num, 2) 13: select num; 14: 15: // iterate over and print the returned items 16: foreach (var number in evenNumbers) 17: { 18: Console.WriteLine(string.Format("** {0}", number)); 19: } 20:  21: stopwatch.Stop(); 22:  23: // check the metrics 24: Console.WriteLine(String.Format("Elapsed {0}ms", stopwatch.ElapsedMilliseconds)); 25: } I’ve added comments for the major steps, but the only thing I want to talk about here is the IsDivisibleBy() method. I know I could have just included the logic directly in the where clause. I called a method to add ‘delay’ to the execution of the query - to simulate a loooooooooong operation (will be easier to compare the results). 1: private static bool IsDivisibleBy(int number, int divisor) 2: { 3: // iterate over some database query 4: // to add time to the execution of this method; 5: // the TableB has around 10 records 6: for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) 7: { 8: DataClasses1DataContext dataContext = new DataClasses1DataContext(); 9: var query = from b in dataContext.TableBs select b; 10: 11: foreach (var row in query) 12: { 13: // Do NOTHING (wish my job was like this) 14: } 15: } 16:  17: return number % divisor == 0; 18: } Now, let’s look at how to modify this to PLINQ. 1: private static void Plinq(int lowerLimit, int upperLimit) 2: { 3: // populate an array with int values from lowerLimit to the upperLimit 4: var source = Enumerable.Range(lowerLimit, upperLimit); 5:  6: // Start a timer 7: Stopwatch stopwatch = new Stopwatch(); 8: stopwatch.Start(); 9:  10: // set the expectation => build the expression tree 11: var evenNumbers = from num in source.AsParallel() 12: where IsDivisibleBy(num, 2) 13: select num; 14:  15: // iterate over and print the returned items 16: foreach (var number in evenNumbers) 17: { 18: Console.WriteLine(string.Format("** {0}", number)); 19: } 20:  21: stopwatch.Stop(); 22:  23: // check the metrics 24: Console.WriteLine(String.Format("Elapsed {0}ms", stopwatch.ElapsedMilliseconds)); 25: } That’s it, this is now in PLINQ format. Oh and if you haven’t found the difference, look line 11 a little more closely. You’ll see an extension method ‘AsParallel()’ added to the ‘source’ variable. Couldn’t be more simpler right? So this is going to improve the performance for us. Let’s test it. So in my Main method of the Console application that I’m working on, I make a call to both. 1: static void Main(string[] args) 2: { 3: // set lower and upper limits 4: int lowerLimit = 1; 5: int upperLimit = 20; 6: // call the methods 7: Console.WriteLine("Calling Linq() method"); 8: Linq(lowerLimit, upperLimit); 9: 10: Console.WriteLine(); 11: Console.WriteLine("Calling Plinq() method"); 12: Plinq(lowerLimit, upperLimit); 13:  14: Console.ReadLine(); // just so I get enough time to read the output 15: } YMMV, but here are the results that I got:    It’s quite obvious from the above results that the Plinq() method is taking considerably less time than the Linq() version. I’m sure you’ve already noticed that the output of the Plinq() method is not in order. That’s because, each of the ‘control’s we sent to fetch the results, reported with values as and when they obtained them. This is something about parallel LINQ that one needs to remember – the collection cannot be guaranteed to be undisturbed. This could be counted as a negative about PLINQ (emphasize ‘could’). Nevertheless, if we want the collection to be sorted, we can use a SortedSet (.net 4.0) or build our own custom ‘sorter’. Either way we go, there’s a good chance we’ll end up with a better performance using PLINQ. And there’s another negative of PLINQ (depending on how you see it). This is regarding the CPU cycles. See the usage for Linq() method (used ResourceMonitor): I have dual CPU’s and see the height of the peak in the bottom two blocks and now compare to what happens when I run the Plinq() method. The difference is obvious. Higher usage, but for a shorter duration (width of the peak). Both these points make sense in both cases. Linq() runs for a longer time, but uses less resources whereas Plinq() runs for a shorter time and consumes more resources. Even after knowing all these, I’m still inclined towards PLINQ. PLINQ rocks! (no hard feelings LINQ)

  • unix script problem

    - by Darie Nicolae
    Hello everyone, I have a simple script which runs on a FreeBSD machine with the following code: #!/bin/sh `sed -i .bak '\:#start 172.0.0.3:,\:#end 172.0.0.3:d' /usr/local/etc/racoon/racoon.conf` echo $? It should delete a block of text between the two patterns. The problem is that if I run the sed command directly from shell it works, if i run the script the return code is 0. Why's that?

  • Getting rid of your server in a small business environment

    - by andygeers
    In a small business environment, is it still necessary to have a central server? Speaking for my own company (a small charity with about 12 employees) we use our server (Windows Server 2003) for the following: Email via Microsoft Exchange Central storage Acting as a print server User authentication / Active Directory There are significant costs associated with running a server like this: Electricity, first for the server itself then for the air conditioning required (this thing pumps out a lot of heat) Noise (of which there is a lot) IT support bills (both Windows Server and Exchange are pretty complicated, and there are many ways they can go wrong) I've found ways to replace many of these functions with cheaper (better?) alternatives: Google Apps / GMail is a clear win for us: we have so many spam related problems it's not even funny, and Outlook is dog slow on our aging computers You can buy networked storage devices with built in print servers, such as the Netgear ReadyNAS™ RND4210 that would allow us to store/share all of our documents, and allow us to access printers over the network The only thing that I can't figure out how to do away with is the authentication side of things - it seems to me that if we got rid of our server, you'd essentially have a bunch of independent PCs that had no shared pool of user accounts / no central administrator. Is that right? Does that matter? Am I missing any other good reasons to keep a central server? Does anybody know of any good, cost-effective ways of achieving the same end but without the expensive central server?

  • Properties vs. Fields: Need help grasping the uses of Properties over Fields.

    - by pghtech
    First off, I have read through a list of postings on this topic and I don't feel I have grasped properties because of what I had come to understand about encapsulation and field modifiers (private, public..ect). One of the main aspects of C# that I have come to learn is the importance of data protection within your code by the use of encapsulation. I 'thought' I understood that to be because of the ability of the use of the modifiers (private, public, internal, protected). However, after learning about properties I am sort of torn in understanding not only properties uses, but the overall importance/ability of data protection (what I understood as encapsulation) within C#. To be more specific, everything I have read when I got to properties in C# is that you should try to use them in place of fields when you can because of: 1) they allow you to change the data type when you can't when directly accessing the field directly. 2) they add a level of protection to data access However, from what I 'thought' I had come to know about the use of field modifiers did #2, it seemed to me that properties just generated additional code unless you had some reason to change the type (#1) - because you are (more or less) creating hidden methods to access fields as opposed to directly. Then there is the whole modifiers being able to be added to Properties which further complicates my understanding for the need of properties to access data. I have read a number of chapters from different writers on "properties" and none have really explained a good understanding of properties vs. fields vs. encapsulation (and good programming methods). Can someone explain: 1) why I would want to use properties instead of fields (especially when it appears I am just adding additional code 2) any tips on recognizing the use of properties and not seeing them as simply methods (with the exception of the get;set being apparent) when tracing other peoples code? 3) Any general rules of thumb when it comes to good programming methods in relation to when to use what? Thanks and sorry for the long post - I didn't want to just ask a question that has been asked 100x without explaining why I am asking it again.

  • Set a session hash outside of RoR program?

    - by Sindri Guðmundsson
    Hi, I have had my new rails program up for a few days now. I'm running it on Ubuntu 10.4 with apache2 in another location than the website it's made for (it's a standalone database application for physiotherapists). The people I made it for now want me to deploy it to the public part of their website, only with one change. Those who open it via the link in the public-part should not be able to click one button! I was thinking of doing something like this in my view: <% if session[:inside]%> <%=button_to 'Sækja mælitæki', @link_to_mt%> <%end%> How could I set session[:inside] only to true if the program was started from within the private part of the webpage? I thought of creating two new actions, the other would set session[:inside] to true and the other to false, but that seems to me like a security risk, is it not? BR, Sindri

  • User must have accepted TOS - Facebook Graph API error when posting photos to group page

    - by user370309
    Hi all, I've been struggling to upload an image from the user's computer and posted to our group page using the Facebook Graph API. I was able to send a post request to facebook with the image however, I'm getting this error back: ERROR: (#200) User must have accepted TOS. To some extent, I don't believe that I need the user to authorize himself as the photo is being uploaded to our group page. This below, is the code i'm using: if($albumId != null) { $args = array( 'message' = $description ); $args[basename($photoPath)] = '@' . realpath($photoPath); $ch = curl_init(); $url = 'https://graph.facebook.com/'.$albumId.'/photos?'.$token; curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, false); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, true); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $args); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, 0); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, 0); $data = curl_exec($ch); $photoId = json_decode($data, true); if(isset($photoId['error'])) die('ERROR: '.$photoId['error']['message']); $temp = explode('.', sprintf('%f', $photoId['id'])); $photoId = $temp[0]; return $photoId; } Can somebody tell me if I need to request extra permissions from the user or what i'm doing wrong? Thanks very much!

  • Java: How to workaround the lack of Equatable interface?

    - by java.is.for.desktop
    Hello, everyone! As far as I know, things such as SortedMap or SortedSet, use compareTo (rather than equals) on Comparable<?> types for checking equality (contains, containsKey). But what if certain types are equatable by concept, but not comparable? I have to declare a Comparator<?> and override the method int compareTo(T o1, To2). OK, I can return 0 for instances which are considered equal. But, for unqeual instances, what do I return when an order is not evident? Is the approach of using SortedMap or SortedSet on equatable but (by concept) not comparable types good anyway? Thank you! EDIT: I don't want to store things sorted, but would I use "usual" Map and Set, I couldn't "override" the equality-behavior. EDIT 2: Why I can't just override equals(...): I need to alter the equality-behavior of a foreign class. Can't edit it. EDIT 3: Just think of .NET: They have IEquatable interface which cat alter the equality-behavior without touching the comparable behavior.

  • Automaically select the lastrow in PivotTable SourceData to avoid (blanks)

    - by Adam
    Hi A little help needed, I have a Macro automatically creating pivot tables and charts, this is all working fine but I am getting (blank) in my pivot table becuase my range is all the way to 65536. How do I automatically get the lastrow / column in my source data so I dont get any blanks. The data is changing constantly so this needs to be automatic Here is the source data, I am looking to get the R65536C37 to be automatically generated based on the lastcolumn of the "raw" sheet ActiveWorkbook.PivotCaches.Add(SourceType:=xlDatabase, SourceData:= _ "raw!R1C1:R65536C37").CreatePivotTable _ TableDestination:="Frontpage!R7C1", TableName:="PivotTable2", _ DefaultVersion:=xlPivotTableVersion10 I have tried; LastRow = ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Rows.Count SourceData:= "raw!R1C1:" & LastRow & C37" Pivot Macro Sheets("Frontpage").Select Range("A7").Select ActiveWorkbook.PivotCaches.Add(SourceType:=xlDatabase, SourceData:= _ "raw!R1C1:R65536C37").CreatePivotTable _ TableDestination:="Frontpage!R7C1", TableName:="PivotTable2", _ DefaultVersion:=xlPivotTableVersion10 Sheets("Frontpage").Select Cells(7, 1).Select ActiveSheet.Shapes.AddChart.Select ActiveChart.SetSourceData Source:=Range("Frontpage!$A$7:$H$22") ActiveChart.ChartType = xlColumnClustered With ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable2").PivotFields("Priority") .Orientation = xlRowField .Position = 1 End With ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable2").AddDataField ActiveSheet.PivotTables( _ "PivotTable2").PivotFields("Case ID"), "Count of Case ID", xlCount ActiveChart.Parent.Name = "IncidentsbyPriority" ActiveChart.ChartTitle.Text = "Incidents by Priority" Dim RngToCover As Range Dim ChtOb As ChartObject Set RngToCover = ActiveSheet.Range("D7:L16") Set ChtOb = ActiveSheet.ChartObjects("IncidentsbyPriority") ChtOb.Height = RngToCover.Height ' resize ChtOb.Width = RngToCover.Width ' resize ChtOb.Top = RngToCover.Top ' reposition ChtOb.Left = RngToCover.Left ' reposition Any help would be greatly appreciated. I need to repeat this in four other pivots so as to avoid getting (blank) in my tables and charts.
