RoboGuice is a framework that brings the simplicity and ease of Dependency Injection to Android, using Google's own Guice library. RoboGuice 3 slims down your application code. Less code means fewer opportunities for bugs. It also makes your code easier to follow -- no longer is your code littered ...

It's possible to break / continue to an outer loop by using label statements: outerloop: for(...) { innerloop: for(...) { if(condition1) break outerloop; if(condition2) continue innerloop; // equivalent to: continue; } } There is no ...

The continue statement is used to skip the remaining steps in the current iteration and start with the next loop iteration. The control goes from the continue statement to the step value (increment or decrement), if any. String[] programmers = {"Adrian", "Paul", "John&quot...

By default class annotations do not apply to types extending them. This can be changed by adding the @Inherited annotation to the annotation definition Example Consider the following 2 Annotations: @Inherited @Target(ElementType.TYPE) @Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME) public @interface Inher...

User is an ActiveRecord or Mongoid class. Replace User with any Rails class in your project (even something like Integer or Array) my_string = "User" # Capitalized string # => 'User' my_constant = my_string.safe_constantize # => User my_constant.all.count # => 18 my...

This example will not work because the string passed in isn't recognized as a constant in the project. Even if you pass in "array", it won't work as it isn't capitalized. my_string = "not_a_constant" # => 'not_a_constant' my_string.safe_constantize # => nil my_s...

C-style bit manipulation A bit can be set using the bitwise OR operator (|). // Bit x will be set number |= 1LL << x; Using std::bitset set(x) or set(x,true) - sets bit at position x to 1. std::bitset<5> num(std::string("01100")); num.set(0); // num is now 01101 ...

Self-referential association is used to associate a model with itself. The most frequent example would be, to manage association between a friend and his follower. ex. rails g model friendship user_id:references friend_id:integer now you can associate models like; class User < ActiveRecord:...

#include <stddef.h> // size_t, ptrdiff_t //----------------------------------- Machinery: using Size = ptrdiff_t; template< class Item, size_t n > constexpr auto n_items( Item (&)[n] ) noexcept -> Size { return n; } //----------------------------------- Us...

// A fixed size raw array matrix (that is, a 2D raw array). #include <iostream> #include <iomanip> using namespace std; auto main() -> int { int const n_rows = 3; int const n_cols = 7; int const m[n_rows][n_cols] = // A raw array matrix. ...

Because in .NET 3.5 and older you don't have Lazy<T> class you use the following pattern: public class Singleton { private Singleton() // prevents public instantiation { } public static Singleton Instance { get { return Nested.instanc...

To create a new Rails 5 API, open a terminal and run the following command: rails new app_name --api The following file structure will be created: create create README.rdoc create Rakefile create config.ru create .gitignore create Gemfile create app create app/as...

All collection objects contain a map method that takes a Function as an argument, which must take a single argument. This returns an Iterable backed by the collection. When the Iterable is iterated, each step calls the function with a new element of the collection, and the result of the call becomes...

You will often need to access instances of classes from the framework itself (like the WSClient, or the Configuration). You can inject them in your own classes : class ComplexService @Inject()( configuration: Configuration, wsClient: WSClient, applicationLifecycle: ApplicationLifecycle, ...

CanCan is a a popular authorization library for Ruby on Rails which restricts user access to specific resources. The latest gem (CanCanCan) is a continuation of the dead project CanCan. Permissions are defined in the Ability class and can be used from controllers, views, helpers, or any other place...

Abilities are defined in the Ability class using can and cannot methods. Consider the following commented example for basic reference: class Ability include CanCan::Ability def initialize(user) # for any visitor or user can :read, Article if user if user.admin? ...

Once the number of abilities definitions start to grow in number, it becomes more and more difficult to handle the Ability file. The first strategy to handle these issue is to move abilities into meaningful methods, as per this example: class Ability include CanCan::Ability def initialize(...

mount is used to mount another application (basically rack application) or rails engines to be used within the current application syntax: mount SomeRackApp, at: "some_route" Now you can access above mounted application using route helper some_rack_app_path or some_rack_app_url. But ...

LISP and Scheme's greatest advantage over other mainstream programming language is their macro system. Unlike the C preprocessor and other macro languages, Scheme macros take parsed code as input and return expanded code as output. This is one of the applications of Scheme's “code is data” phrase, a...
