Rather than use clearRect which makes all pixels transparent you may want a background. To clear with a gradient // create the background gradient once var bgGrad = ctx.createLinearGradient(0,0,0,canvas.height); bgGrad.addColorStop(0,"#0FF"); bgGrad.addColorStop(1,"#08F"); ...

When writing wrappers for unmanaged resources, you should subclass SafeHandle rather than trying to implement IDisposable and a finalizer yourself. Your SafeHandle subclass should be as small and simple as possible to minimize the chance of a handle leak. This likely means that your SafeHandle imple...

An integer type large enough to represent all characters of the largest supported extended character set, also known as the wide-character set.

The same example above, Image loading, can be written using async functions. This also allows using the common try/catch method for exception handling. Note: as of April 2017, the current releases of all browsers but Internet Explorer supports async functions. function loadImage(url) { return...

Behat provides Gherkin Syntax which is a human-readable format. It allows you to easily describe your user stories. To start with Behat you should install it with Composer and then initialize your test files: $ composer require --dev behat/behat="^3.0.5" $ ./vendor/bin/behat --init ...

Mink provides an interface for web drivers (like Goutte and Selenium) as well as a MinkContext which, when extended, provides additional web language for our steps. To install Mink (and the default Goutte driver): $ composer require --dev behat/mink-extension="^2.0" $ composer require -...

If we want to test JavaScript on a website, we'll need to use something a bit more powerful than Goutte (which is just cURL via Guzzle). There are a couple of options such as ZombieJS, Selenium and Sahi. For this example I'll use Selenium. First you'll need to install the drivers for Mink: $ compo...

From documentation: The HttpContext.Items collection is the best location to store data that is only needed while processing a given request. Its contents are discarded after each request. It is best used as a means of communicating between components or middleware that operate at different poi...

The wheel collider inside unity is built upon Nvidia's PhysX wheel collider, and therefore shares many similar properties. Technically unity is a "unitless" program, but to make everything make sense, some standard units are required. Basic Properties Mass - the weight of the wheel in ...

Django 1.10 introduced a new middleware style where process_request and process_response are merged together. In this new style, a middleware is a callable that returns another callable. Well, actually the former is a middleware factory and the latter is the actual middleware. The middleware facto...

The predicate function matches can be used to evaluate strings on the fly without use of any object declarations. IF matches( val = 'Not a hex string' regex = '[0-9a-f]*' ). cl_demo_output=>display( 'This will not display' ). ELSEIF matches( val = '6c6f7665' reg...

For more complex applications, flat execution profiles may be difficult to follow. This is why many profiling tools also generate some form of annotated callgraph information. gperf2dot converts text output from many profilers (Linux perf, callgrind, oprofile etc.) into a callgraph diagram. You can...

Google Perf Tools also provides a CPU profiler, with a slightly friendlier interface. To use it: Install Google Perf Tools Compile your code as usual Add the libprofiler profiler library to your library load path at runtime Use pprof to generate a flat execution profile, or a callgraph diagram...

Bootstrapping Magento by calling: require_once 'app/Mage.php'; Mage::app(); // Your code This is the simplest way but not really the Magento way because we're not using class that extends Mage_Shell_Abstract - the class which when extended provides us with tools to parse command line arguments...
