  • Storing rich text documents

    - by David Veeneman
    This is a follow-up to another question I asked earlier today. I am creating a desktop app that stores rich text documents created in WPF (in a RichTextBox control). The app uses SQL Compact, and up until now, I had planned to store each document in a binary column in the database. I am rethinking that approach. Would it be better practice to store each rich text document in the file system, rather than saving it to the database? I figure I could put the documents in the same folder with the database, then store a relative path to each document in its database record, along with other information about the document (tags and so on). I'd like to know some pros and cons of that approach, along with ideas of what is generally considered best practice for this sort of thing. Thanks for your help.

  • User input in Perl with IO::Socket

    - by David
    I am trying to make a perl program which allows a user to input the host and the port number of a foreign host to connect to using IO::Socket. It allows me to run the program and input a host and a port but it never connects and says "Could not connect to [host] at c:\users\USER\Documents\code\perl\sql.pl line 18, line 2." What am i doing wrong with this code shown below? And also, how can i have input validation on my host, which can either be a host name or an ip address? Thanks a bunch! Code Below use IO::Socket print "Host to connect to: "; chomp ($host = <STDIN>); print "Port to connect with: "; chomp ($port = <STDIN>); while(($port > 65535) || ($port <= 0)){ print "Port to connect with [Port > 0 < 65535] : "; chomp ($port = <STDIN>); } print "\nConnecting to host $host on port $port\n"; $socket = new IO::Socket::INET ( LocalHost => '$host', LocalPort => '$port', Proto => 'tcp', Listen => 5, Reuse => 1 ); die "Could not connect to $host";

  • How can I help fellow students struggling in programming classes?

    - by David Barry
    I'm a computer science student finishing up my second semester of programming classes. I've enjoyed them quite a bit, and learned a lot, but it seems other students are struggling with the concepts and assignments more than I am. When an assignment is due, the inevitable group email comes out the day or two before with people needing some help either with a specific part of the problem, or sometimes people just seem to have a hard time knowing where to start. I'd really like to be able to help out, but I have a hard time thinking of the right way to give them help without giving them the answer. When I'm having trouble understanding a concept, a code snippet can go along way to helping me, but at the same time if it makes a lot of sense, it can be difficult to think of another way to go about it. Plus the Academic Integrity section of each assignment is always looming overhead warning against sharing code with others. I've tried using pseudo code to help give others an idea on program flow, leaving them to figure out how to implement certain aspects of it, but I didn't get too much feedback and don't know how much it actually helped them out, or if it just confused them further. So I'm basically looking to see if anyone has experience with this, or good ways that I can help out other students to nudge them in the right direction or help them think about the problem in the right way.

  • HTML_Template_IT and wordpress

    - by David Ryder
    I want to use PEAR's HTML_Template_IT in one of my Wordpress page templates so I can separate the HTML from the PHP. I got it working, except I am not sure about one thing. Wordpress's built-in function get_header() actually echo's HTML - so I can't technically set it as a template variable. Is this considered acceptable or is there another way to put the contents of get_header() in a variable? Thanks!

  • Memory management technique for Objective-C iVars/properties

    - by David Rea
    Is the following code doing anything unnecessary? @interface MyClass { NSArray *myArray; } -(void)replaceArray:(NSArray *)newArray; @implementation MyClass -(void)replaceArray:(NSArray *)newArray { if( myArray ) { [myArray release]; myArray = nil; } myArray = [[NSArray alloc] initWithArray: newArray]; } @end What if I made the following changes: 1) Made myArray a property: @property (nonatomic, retain) NSArray myArray; 2) Changed the assignment to: self.myArray = [NSArray arrayWithArray: newArray]; Would that allow me to remove the conditional?

  • Flex: CursorManager does nothing when `stage.mouseChildren = false`?

    - by David Wolever
    I've found that if I use the CursorManager to set a cursor — CursorManager.setBusyCursor() — then set stage.mouseChildren = false, the cursor set by CursorManager is replaced by the "default" mouse cursor the next time the mouse is moved. I'm setting stage.mouseChildren = false so that, while the mouse is being dragged, other "stuff" on the stage won't get mouse events (eg, so that mouse-over affordances aren't triggered if I'm in the middle of a drag). Is there some way I can work around this?

  • Server.Execute - render .ASP from MVC controller action

    - by David Lively
    I need to render an ASP page to a string from an MVC controller action. I can use Server.Execute() to render a .aspx page, but not a .asp page. Here's what I'm using: public ActionResult Index() { Server.Execute("/default.asp"); return new EmptyResult(); } which returns `No http handler was found for request type 'GET'` Any suggestions? I can do something similar with with a web request, but I'd rather avoid the overhead of a loopback request.

  • How to permanently leave a CALayer rotated at its final location?

    - by David
    Hello, I am trying to rotate a CALayer to a specific angle however, once the animation is done, the layer jumps back to its original position. How would I rotate the layer properly so that it stays at its final destination? Here is the code that I am using CABasicAnimation *rotationAnimation =[CABasicAnimation animationWithKeyPath:@"transform.rotation.z"]; //Rotate about z-axis [rotationAnimation setFromValue:[NSNumber numberWithFloat:fromDegree]]; [rotationAnimation setToValue:[NSNumber numberWithFloat:toDegree]]; [rotationAnimation setDuration:0.2]; [rotationAnimation setRemovedOnCompletion:YES]; [rotationAnimation setFillMode:kCAFillModeForwards]; Any suggestions? Thank you.

  • How To? Use an Expression Tree to call a Generic Method when the Type is only known at runtime.

    - by David Williams
    Please bear with me; I am very new to expression trees and lambda expressions, but trying to learn. This is something that I solved using reflection, but would like to see how to do it using expression trees. I have a generic function: private void DoSomeThing<T>( param object[] args ) { // Some work is done here. } that I need to call from else where in my class. Now, normally, this would be be simple: DoSomeThing<int>( blah ); but only if I know, at design time that I am working with an int. When I do not know the type until runtime is where I need the help. Like I said, I know how to do it via reflection, but I would like to do it via expression trees, as my (very limited) understanding is that I can do so. Any suggestions or points to sites where I can get this understanding, preferably with sample code?

  • Including Build Date strings in a C# project

    - by David Rutten
    I'd like to hard code the build date into my application (DD-mmmm-YYYY), but how do I embed this constant into the code? I thought perhaps I could make a pre-build event that executes a *.bat file that updates a textfile which is resourced, but it sounds pretty involved. What's the best approach?

  • How to change the assemblyIdentity of a program

    - by David
    I want to hide the tool I used to create an .exe file. I am not doing anything illegal, I just want to protect my intellectual property from being copied. If I open the exe file in a text editor I see the following section. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?> <assembly xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1" manifestVersion="1.0"> <assemblyIdentity version="XXX.XX" processorArchitecture="X86" name="Microsoft.Windows.NameOfTheTool" type="win32" /> </assembly> I have attempted to change the name to: name="Microsoft.Windows.SomeOtherName" This resulted in the following message when I attempted to execute the file. "This application has failed to start because its side-by-side configuration is incorrect." How can I solve this?

  • GNU linker: alternative to --version-script to list exported symbols at the command line ?

    - by David Cournapeau
    On Linux with the GNU toolchain, I know how to control exported symbols from a shared library with a version script (gcc -Wl,--version-script=symbols.map), but I would like to list exported symbols on the command line instead. IOW, I would like the equivalent of link /EXPORT:foo from the MS toolchain. Is it possible ? EDIT: My question may not be very clearn: if I have a library libfoo.so, and I want to only export libraries foo1 and foo2, I can go create a version script foo.linux as follows libfoo.so { global: foo1; foo2; local: *; } And do gcc -shared foo.c -Wl,--version-script=foo.linux -o libfoo.so -soname libfoo.so I would like to be able to do something like this instead: gcc -shared foo.c -Wl,--export-symbol=foo1 -Wl,--export-symbol=foo2 -o libfoo.so -soname libfoo.so

  • GetAcceptExSockaddrs returns garbage! Does anyone know why?

    - by David
    Hello, I'm trying to write a quick/dirty echoserver in Delphi, but I notice that GetAcceptExSockaddrs seems to be writing to only the first 4 bytes of the structure I pass it. USES SysUtils; TYPE BOOL = LongBool; DWORD = Cardinal; LPDWORD = ^DWORD; short = SmallInt; ushort = Word; uint16 = Word; uint = Cardinal; ulong = Cardinal; SOCKET = uint; PVOID = Pointer; _HANDLE = DWORD; _in_addr = packed record s_addr : ulong; end; _sockaddr_in = packed record sin_family : short; sin_port : uint16; sin_addr : _in_addr; sin_zero : array[0..7] of Char; end; P_sockaddr_in = ^_sockaddr_in; _Overlapped = packed record Internal : Int64; Offset : Int64; hEvent : _HANDLE; end; LP_Overlapped = ^_Overlapped; IMPORTS function _AcceptEx (sListenSocket, sAcceptSocket : SOCKET; lpOutputBuffer : PVOID; dwReceiveDataLength, dwLocalAddressLength, dwRemoteAddressLength : DWORD; lpdwBytesReceived : LPDWORD; lpOverlapped : LP_OVERLAPPED) : BOOL; stdcall; external MSWinsock name 'AcceptEx'; procedure _GetAcceptExSockaddrs (lpOutputBuffer : PVOID; dwReceiveDataLength, dwLocalAddressLength, dwRemoteAddressLength : DWORD; LocalSockaddr : P_Sockaddr_in; LocalSockaddrLength : LPINT; RemoteSockaddr : P_Sockaddr_in; RemoteSockaddrLength : LPINT); stdcall; external MSWinsock name 'GetAcceptExSockaddrs'; CONST BufDataSize = 8192; BufAddrSize = SizeOf (_sockaddr_in) + 16; VAR ListenSock, AcceptSock : SOCKET; Addr, LocalAddr, RemoteAddr : _sockaddr_in; LocalAddrSize, RemoteAddrSize : INT; Buf : array[1..BufDataSize + BufAddrSize * 2] of Byte; BytesReceived : DWORD; Ov : _Overlapped; BEGIN //WSAStartup, create listen socket, bind to port 1066 on any interface, listen //Create event for overlapped (autoreset, initally not signalled) //Create accept socket if _AcceptEx (ListenSock, AcceptSock, @Buf, BufDataSize, BufAddrSize, BufAddrSize, @BytesReceived, @Ov) then WinCheck ('SetEvent', _SetEvent (Ov.hEvent)) else if GetLastError <> ERROR_IO_PENDING then WinCheck ('AcceptEx', GetLastError); {do WaitForMultipleObjects} _GetAcceptExSockaddrs (@Buf, BufDataSize, BufAddrSize, BufAddrSize, @LocalAddr, @LocalAddrSize, @RemoteAddr, @RemoteAddrSize); So if I run this, connect to it with Telnet (on same computer, connecting to localhost) and then type a key, WaitForMultipleObjects will unblock and GetAcceptExSockaddrs will run. But the result is garbage! RemoteAddr.sin_family = -13894 RemoteAddr.sin_port = 64 and the rest is zeroes. What gives? Thanks in advance!

  • Resolving Assemblies, the fuzzy way

    - by David Rutten
    Here's the setup: A pure DotNET class library is loaded by an unmanaged desktop application. The Class Library acts as a plugin. This plugin loads little baby plugins of its own (all DotNET Class Libraries), and it does so by reading the dll into memory as a byte-stream, then Assembly asm = Assembly.Load(COFF_Image); The problem arises when those little baby plugins have references to other dlls. Since they are loaded via the memory rather than directly from the disk, the framework often cannot find these referenced assemblies and is thus incapable of loading them. I can add an AssemblyResolver handler to my project and I can see these referenced assemblies drop past. I have a reasonably good idea about where to find these referenced assemblies on the disk, but how can I make sure that the Assmebly I load is the correct one? In short, how do I reliably go from the System.ResolveEventArgs.Name field to a dll file path, presuming I have a list of all the folders where this dll could be hiding)?

  • How to set a filter for an estimated maximum price

    - by David
    I cannot figure out how to set an estimated maximum price for a collection of records. What I want to avoid is to simply use SQL MAX, because maybe there are records with exorbitant prices. For example, in the "computers-hardware" category of OLX (http://www.olx.com/computers-hardware-cat-240) the filter for maximum price is estimately set to $1400, but sorting by price, the first items are above $10000 Maybe they calculated the average and then estimated some maximum price... what do you think? And what about the stepping? How would you calculate it?

  • Helping managers and customers understand SOA

    - by David
    I frequently hear Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) being tossed around as a buzzword among non-technical customers or program managers with little concern or understanding for what it actually entails (example: "Can I buy a SOA?"). There's also a lot of misinformation about SOA (example: "Only web apps can use SOA") and a general lack of understanding for its capabilities (example: "SOA can make your make all of your data work together"). What are some key facts that you, as someone who understand the technical side of SOA, use to educate program managers on the appropriate use and understanding of SOA? What's the best way to set the record straight with non-technical folks?

  • Getting user data from Active Directory using PL/SQL

    - by David Neale
    I had a discussion today regarding an Oracle procedure I wrote some time ago. I wanted to get 7500 user email addresses from Active Directory using PL/SQL. AD will return a maximum of 1000 rows and the LDAP provider used by Oracle will not support paging. Therefore, my solution was to filter on the last two characters of the sAMAccountName (*00,*01,*02...etc.). This results in 126 queries (100 for account names ending in digits, 26 for those ending in a letter...this was sufficient for my AD setup). The person I was speaking to (it was a job interview by the way) said he could have done it a better way, but he would not tell me what that method was. Could anybody hazard a guess at what this method was?

  • Integer Extensions - 1st, 2nd, 3rd etc [closed]

    - by David Schiefer
    Possible Duplicate: NSNumberFormatter and ‘th’ ‘st’ ‘nd’ ‘rd’ (ordinal) number endings Hello, I'm building an application that downloads player ranks and displays them. So say for example, you're 3rd out of all the players, I inserted a condition that will display it as 3rd, not 3th and i did the same for 2nd and 1st. When getting to higher ranks though, such as 2883rd, it'll display 2883th (for obvious reasons) My question is, how can I get it to reformat the number to XXX1st, XXX2nd, XXX3rd etc? To show what I mean, here's how I format my number to add a "rd" if it's 3 if ([[container stringByTrimmingCharactersInSet:[NSCharacterSet whitespaceAndNewlineCharacterSet]] isEqualToString:@"3"]) { NSString*badge = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@rd",[container stringByTrimmingCharactersInSet:[NSCharacterSet whitespaceAndNewlineCharacterSet]]]; NSString*scoreText = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"ROC Server Rank: %@rd",[container stringByTrimmingCharactersInSet:[NSCharacterSet whitespaceAndNewlineCharacterSet]]]; profile.badgeValue = badge; rank.text = scoreText; } I can't do this for every number up to 2000 (there are 2000 ranks in total) - what can I do to solve this problem?

  • iPhone Application: force landscape mode, strange behaviour...?

    - by David Lawson
    This is a method I use to switch display views, based on a string passed (for example you could pass MainMenuViewController to switch views to a new instance of that class): - (void)displayView:(NSString *)newView { NSLog(@"%@", newView); [[currentView view] removeFromSuperview]; [currentView release]; UIViewController *newView = [[NSClassFromString(newView) alloc] init]; [[newView view] setFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 460)]; [self setCurrentView:newView]; [[self view] addSubview:[currentView view]]; } I have my application forced into landscape view (.plist and -shouldRotate), but if you look in the code: [[newView view] setFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 460)]; I have to set the frame of the newView to a portrait frame for the view to be displayed correctly - otherwise, for example, a button on the new view can only be pressed in certain parts of the screen (rectangle up the top), unresponsive anywhere else. Even though in all my NIB files they are set to landscape.

  • Attaching files to WCF REST service responses

    - by David Seiler
    I have a resource that looks something like this: /users/{id}/summary?format={format} When format is "xml" or "json" I respond with a user summary object that gets automagically encoded by WCF - fine so far. But when format equals "pdf", I want my response to consist of a trivial HTTP response body and a PDF file attachment. How is this done? Hacking on WebOperationContext.Current.OutgoingResponse doesn't seem to work, and wouldn't be the right thing even if it did. Including the bits of the file in a CDATA section or something in the response isn't safe. Should I create a subclass of Message, then provide a custom IDispatchMessageFormatter that responds with it? I went a short distance down that path but ultimately found the documentation opaque. What's the right thing?
