  • Emulating a transaction-safe SEQUENCE in MySQL

    - by Michael Pliskin
    We're using MySQL with InnoDB storage engine and transactions a lot, and we've run into a problem: we need a nice way to emulate Oracle's SEQUENCEs in MySQL. The requirements are: - concurrency support - transaction safety - max performance (meaning minimizing locks and deadlocks) We don't care if some of the values won't be used, i.e. gaps in sequence are ok. There is an easy way to archieve that by creating a separate InnoDB table with a counter, however this means it will take part in transaction and will introduce locks and waiting. I am thinking to try a MyISAM table with manual locks, any other ideas or best practices?

  • Function name inside a variable

    - by John Doe
    Hello. I have a simple question (i guess). I'm getting the name of the function inside a variable from database. After that, i want to run the specific function. How can i echo the function's name inside the php file? The code is something like this: $variable= get_specific_option; //execute function $variable_somesuffix(); The "somesuffix" will be a simple text. I tried all the things i had in mind but nothing worked.

  • XP Leveling System - PHP

    - by Michael Rich
    Rank Table ID, Primary Key RANK, The rank or level, 1 being the highest and 3 the lowest MIN_SCORE, The minimum amount of point or XP needed to reach the rank NAME, The associated name of the rank Rank Table +----+------+-----------+-------------------------+ | ID | RANK | MIN_SCORE | NAME | +----+------+-----------+-------------------------+ | 1 | 1 | 18932 | Editor-in-Chief | | 2 | 2 | 15146 | Senior Technical Writer | | 3 | 3 | 12116 | Senior Copywriter | +----+------+-----------+-------------------------+ Ranking Table ID, Primary Key FK_MEMEBER_ID, Foreign Key to member's Primary Key FK_RANK, Foreign Key to Author Rank Table's Rank column (top) SCORE, The member's current earned score or XP Ranking Table +-----+--------------+---------+-------+ | ID | FK_MEMBER_ID | FK_RANK | SCORE | +-----+--------------+---------+-------+ | 1 | 1 | 1 | 17722 | | 2 | 2 | 2 | 16257 | | 3 | 3 | 3 | 12234 | +-----+--------------+---------+-------+ In my class I have stored the ranks -- matching those in the Rank Table -- and correlating minimum scores; RANK as key and MINIMUM_SCORE as value. When a member's score (XP) is updated (up/down) I want to test that updated score against the below array to determine if their rank needs updating too. private $scores = array('3' => '12116', '2' => '15146', '1' => '18932',); Using the updated score, how could I determine the correlating rank from the above array? Everything is open to scrutiny, this is my first time creating a ranking system so I hope to get it right :)

  • How long until programming becomes a professionally certified (and respected as such) skill such as

    - by Michael Campbell
    Given Toyota's recent issues and the ENORMOUS amount of safety that is being relegated to computers, how long do you think it will be before programming, or perhaps programming certain things (embedded transportation software, (air) traffic control, electrical grid, hospital equipment, nuclear plant security, planes, etc.) becomes regulated? And/or, how long before there will be certain regulated certifications before you can call yourself a "software developer", like Architects and Engineers have now? (NB: I'm from the US, so I don't know how it works in other countries; please forgive my ignornace.)

  • Make a mouse pointer do a hyper-jump?

    - by John M
    I run a dual monitor setup. To get from monitor 1 to 2 (or vice-versa) requires lots of unnecessary mouse movement. My thought was to leverage a extra mouse button (I have two) and have the mouse hyper-jump (apologies to Star Trek) from the XY coordinates on monitor 1 to the same XY coordinates on monitor 2. How would I go about doing this? Could it be done via C#?

  • Multipage forms for joomla (looking outside the box)

    - by John Snow
    I have created a number of forms using various Joomla components which have more or less worked successfully. Recently I have attempted to create mult-page forms - the forms work...but they are slow as molasses. Having spent a couple of weeks trying to resolve this and not seeing any signs of improvement ...... I wonder if anyone has experience of using hosted forms services in Joomla either using a wrapper or as a static page within a Joomla site. Any pointers or recommendations would be appreciated.

  • Cannot access NSDictionary

    - by michael blaize
    I created a JSON using a PHP script. I am reading the JSON and can see that the data has been correctly read. However, when it comes to access the objects I get unrecognized selector sent to instance... Cannot seem to find why that is after too many hours !!!! Any help would be great ! My code looks like that: `NSDictionary *json = [[NSDictionary alloc] init]; json = [NSJSONSerialization JSONObjectWithData:receivedData options:kNilOptions error:&error]; NSLog(@"raw json = %@,%@",json,error); NSMutableArray *name = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init]; [name addObjectsFromArray: [json objectForKey:@"name"]];` The code crashes when reaching the last line above. The output like this: raw json = ( { category = vacancies; link = "http://blablabla.com"; name = "name 111111"; tagline = "tagline 111111"; }, { category = vacancies; link = "http://blobloblo.com"; name = "name 222222222"; tagline = "tagline 222222222"; } ),(null) 2012-06-23 21:46:57.539 Wind expert[4302:15203] -[__NSCFArray objectForKey:]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0xdcfb970 HELP !!!

  • SWIG-Lua question on class returning another class

    - by John Smith
    I am concreting a question I had earlier. I have two classes in C++ and I use SWIG to wrap them. A method in one class can return a pointer to the other class. How can I get Lua to see it as more than just a userdata? More concretely: I have class fruit { int numberofseeds; //some other stuff about fruit constructors etc... public: getseedcount() { return numberofseeds; } } class tree { fruit * apple; public: //constructors and whatnot fruit * getfruit() { return apple; } } I wrap these two class with SWIG so I can access them in Lua So I can get in Lua the object x=pomona.tree(grannysmith). My question now is: How can I arrange for things so that when I type y=x:getfruit() I will get a pomona:fruit type object? Where I can write something line y:getseedcount()? At the moment all I get is userdata which not edible.

  • Accessing WordPress categories from outside

    - by John
    So, I have a client that needs all the categories from their blog to be displayed on their homepage. The WordPress blog is in its own directory, /blog. I have tried the following code (taken from a tutorial, I changed the path to fit clients site): <?php // Include WordPress define('WP_USE_THEMES', false); require('blog/wp-load.php'); query_posts('showposts=1'); ?> But this code just redirects me to the install file of WordPress (it actually wrongly redirects me). It goes to http://www.site.com/wp-admin/install.php instead of http://www.site.com/blog/wp-admin/install.php. Is there a better way than this method? I would pull in the categories from the database table, but I do not currently have access. Thanks!

    I'm trying to do an else statement that would tell the user that the game ended in a draw (tic tac toe game).

  • Hero Class, php classes

    - by John
    I am going to have different classes for a character that a user play. Like "Mage, Warrior" etc. I am thinking of a method like have some CharacterBase class (abstract?) and then I have a child class which is like WarriorClass or something like that. I think the approach is called Factory pattern or something like that. Anyone got a clue of what I'm trying to achieve here, and are there perhaps any better way to do this?

  • Better code for accessing fields in a matlab structure array?

    - by John
    I have a matlab structure array Modles1 of size (1x180) that has fields a, b, c, ..., z. I want to understand how many distinct values there are in each of the fields. i.e. max(grp2idx([foo(:).a])) The above works if the field a is a double. {foo(:).a} needs to be used in the case where the field a is a string/char. Here's my current code for doing this. I hate having to use the eval, and what is essentially a switch statement. Is there a better way? names = fieldnames(Models1); for ix = 1 : numel(names) className = eval(['class(Models1(1).',names{ix},')']); if strcmp('double', className) || strcmp('logical',className) eval([' values = [Models1(:).',names{ix},'];']); elseif strcmp('char', className) eval([' values = {Models1(:).',names{ix},'};']); else disp(['Unrecognized class: ', className]); end % this line requires the statistics toolbox. [g, gn, gl] = grp2idx(values); fprintf('%30s : %4d\n',names{ix},max(g)); end

  • GPL and hosted services

    - by John
    As I understand it GPL says you only have to distribute derivative code for works you distribute, i.e. if you develop internal software you can keep your code private. What happens if you develop a server application, say like Facebook or StackOverflow? The server app is not 'distributed' so what's the situation with your code in this case?

  • Convert Lat/Longs to X/Y Co-ordinates

    - by michael
    I have the Lat/Long value of New York City, NY; 40.7560540,-73.9869510 and a flat image of the earth, 1000px × 446px. I would like to be able to convert, using Javascript, the Lat/Long to an X,Y coordinate where the point would reflect the location. So the X,Y coordinate form the Top-Left corner of the image would be; 289, 111 Things to note: don't worry about issues of what projection to use, make your own assumption or go with what you know might work X,Y can be form any corner of the image Bonus points for the same solution in PHP (but I really need the JS)

  • What is the "proper" method for determining if a swf is running within an AIR application?

    - by Michael Prescott
    I've got a Flex Web project and a Flex AIR project that use a common code-base. The common code defines several run-time loaded Flex Modules. I want the Flex Modules to behave differently depending on whether the running base application is WEB or AIR. What is the proper method for determining from the module code whether the module is running in a WEB or AIR application? (I found that Security.sandboxType.toString() returns "application", but I haven't found anything better in the documentation, yet.)

  • facebook photo album grouping photos in news feed

    - by John Klingelhoets
    We have a social media "platform" - when we schedule photos to be published to Facebook, if a user schedules photos - they all go into the same album, as they schedule photos throughout the day - the photos become grouped and do not appear as a large photo - but rather a bunch of photos in a album. Is there any way to prevent photos from being grouped in the new feed and it just showing the newest uploaded photo in stream? I do not see an option.

  • Cleaning up PHP Code

    Hi, I've noticed I am a very sloppy coder and do things out of the ordinary. Can you take a look at my code and give me some tips on how to code more efficiently?

  • SFTP Libraries for .NET

    - by John Doe
    Can anyone recommend a good SFTP library to use? Right now I'm looking at products such as SecureBlackbox, IPWorks SSH, WodSFTP, and Rebex SFTP. However, I have never used any SFTP library before so I'm not sure what I'm looking for. If anyone has used these before, is there any reason why I should go with product "X" over "Y"? Thanks!
