In Object Oriented Design, objects receive messages and reply to them. In Ruby, sending a message is calling a method and result of that method is the reply. In Ruby message passing is dynamic. When a message arrives rather than knowing exactly how to reply to it Ruby uses a predefined set of rules...

Ruby moves up on ancestors chain of an object. This chain can contain both modules and classes. Same rules about moving up the chain apply to modules as well. class Example end module Prepended def initialize *args return super :default if args.empty? super end end module Fi...

There are two ways to interrupt messages. Use method_missing to interrupt any non defined message. Define a method in middle of a chain to intercept the message After interrupting messages, it is possible to: Reply to them. Send them somewhere else. Modify the message or its result. ...

The Continue operator works in For, ForEach, While and Do loops. It skips the current iteration of the loop, jumping to the top of the innermost loop. $i =0 while ($i -lt 20) { $i++ if ($i -eq 7) { continue } Write-Host $I } The above will output 1 to 20 to the console but miss...

This can be used in various chat applications, rss feeds, and social apps where you need to have latest feeds with timestamps: Objective-C - (NSString *)getHistoricTimeText:(NSDate *)since { NSString *str; NSTimeInterval interval = [[NSDate date] timeIntervalSinceDate:since]; if(in...

Using a file Swift let data = NSData(contentsOfFile: filePath) //assuming filePath is a valid path Objective-C NSData *data = [NSData dataWithContentsOfFile:filePath]; //assuming filePath is a valid path Using a String object Swift let data = (string as NSString).dataUsingEncoding(NSUTF8S...

To String Swift let string = String(NSString(data: data, encoding: NSUTF8StringEncoding)) //assuming data is a valid NSData object Objective-C NSString *string = [[NSString alloc] initWithData:data encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]; //assuming data is a valid NSData object [string release]; T...

This class is called Greeter. Its responsibility is to output a greeting. It has two dependencies. It needs something that will give it the greeting to output, and then it needs a way to output that greeting. Those dependencies are both described as interfaces, IGreetingProvider and IGreetingWriter....

This builds on the previous example of the Greeter class which has two dependencies, IGreetingProvider and IGreetingWriter. The actual implementation of IGreetingProvider might retrieve a string from an API call or a database. The implementation of IGreetingWriter might display the greeting in the ...

Dependency injection means writing classes so that they do not control their dependencies - instead, their dependencies are provided to them ("injected.") This is not the same thing as using a dependency injection framework (often called a "DI container", "IoC container&quo...

Add the I18N nuget package to your MVC project. In web.config, add the i18n.LocalizingModule to your <httpModules> or <modules> section. <!-- IIS 6 --> <httpModules> <add name="i18n.LocalizingModule" type="i18n.LocalizingModule, i18n" /> &...

Connection factories are the managed objects that allows application to connect to provider by creating Connection object. javax.jms.ConnectionFactory is an interface that encapsulates configuration parameters defined by an administrator. For using ConnectionFactory client must execute JNDI lookup ...

Writing to a XML File using XOM is very similar to reading it except in this case we are making the instances instead of retrieving them off the root. To make a new Element use the constructor Element(String name). You will want to make a root element so that you can easily add it to a Document. E...

The Reflection API could be used to change values of private and final fields even in the JDK default library. This could be used to manipulate the behaviour of some well known classes as we will see. What is not possible Lets start first with the only limitation means the only field we can't chan...

A function is a block of organised, reusable code that is used to perform a single, related action. Functions usually "take in" data, process it, and "return" a result. User defined function A function defined by user. Example in PHP //Function definition function a...

Enables the use of local type inference in declaring variables. What is type inference? You can declare local variables without explicitly stating a data type. The compiler infers the data type of a variable from the type of its initialization expression. Option Infer On: Dim aString = "12...

OVERVIEW cocos2d-x is an open source, cross-platform game engine. It allows developers to code in C++, Lua and Javascript deployment into iOS, Android, Windows Phone, Mac OS X, Windows Desktop and Linux. PREREQUISITES Build Requirements Mac OS X 10.7+, Xcode 4.6+ Windows 7+, VS 2012+ Ubunt...

Sometimes it can be interesting to have a cross-talk between the user and the program, one example being the swirl package that had been designed to teach R in R. One can ask for user input using the readline command: name <- readline(prompt = "What is your name?") The user can the...
