Converting between encodings is easy with C++11 and most compilers are able to deal with it in a cross-platform manner through <codecvt> and <locale> headers. #include <iostream> #include <codecvt> #include <locale> #include <string> using namespace std; i...

C++14 In C++14, this is easily done by std::mismatch which returns the first mismatching pair from two ranges: std::string prefix = "foo"; std::string string = "foobar"; bool isPrefix = std::mismatch(prefix.begin(), prefix.end(), string.begin(), string.end()).first == ...

When a user press F1 on a control or click on Help button of form (?) and then clicks on a control the HelpRequested event will be raised. You can handle this event to provide custom action when user requests help for controls or form. The HelpRequested supports bubble up mechanism. It fires for y...

You can use Help class in code, to provide these kinds of help: Show a help pop-up for a control Open a CHM file based on context (Show table of content, Show a keyword or index, show a topic) Navigate to a URL using default browser Show Help pop-up window You can use Help.ShowPopup to disp...

You can detect when a user Clicked on a HelpButton on title-bar of form by handling HelpButtonClicked. You can let the event continue or cancel it by setting Cancel property of its event args to true. private void Form1_HelpButtonClicked(object sender, CancelEventArgs e) { e.Cancel = true; ...

SELECT product, SUM(quantity) AS "Total quantity" FROM order_details GROUP BY product;

Assume a table of employees in which each row is an employee who has a name, a department, and a salary. SELECT department, MIN(salary) AS "Lowest salary" FROM employees GROUP BY department; This would tell you which department contains the employee with the lowest salary, and what t...

The protected internal keyword marks field, methods, properties and nested classes for use inside the same assembly or derived classes in another assembly: Assembly 1 public class Foo { public string MyPublicProperty { get; set; } protected internal string MyProtectedInternalPropert...

std::ostringstream can be used to convert any streamable type to a string representation, by inserting the object into a std::ostringstream object (with the stream insertion operator <<) and then converting the whole std::ostringstream to a std::string. For int for instance: #include <sst...

Below is a recursive code to reverse a string /** * Just a snippet to explain the idea of recursion * **/ public class Reverse { public static void main (String args[]) { String string = "hello world"; System.out.println(reverse(string)); //prints dlrow oll...

A pointer (resp. reference) to an object type can be converted to a pointer (resp. reference) to any other object type using reinterpret_cast. This does not call any constructors or conversion functions. int x = 42; char* p = static_cast<char*>(&x); // error: static_cast cannot perf...

Default behavior when cloning an object is to perform a shallow copy of the object's fields. In that case, both the original object and the cloned object, hold references to the same objects. This example shows that behavior. import java.util.List; public class Sheep implements Cloneable { ...

To copy nested objects, a deep copy must be performed, as shown in this example. import java.util.ArrayList; import java.util.List; public class Sheep implements Cloneable { private String name; private int weight; private List<Sheep> children; public Sheep(Str...

Exceptions represent programmer-level bugs like trying to access an array element that doesn’t exist. Errors are user-level issues like trying load a file that doesn’t exist. Because errors are expected during the normal execution of a program. Example: NSArray *inventory = @[@"Sam"...

Before we download and install Composer, we need to make sure our server has all dependencies installed. First, update the package manager cache by running: sudo apt-get update Now, let's install the dependencies. We'll need curl in order to download Composer and php5-cli for installing and run...

Here we will simply use the installer. This is the easiest way to get Composer set up on your machine. Download and run Composer-Setup.exe. It will install the latest composer version and set up your PATH so that you can just call composer from any directory in your command line. Note: Close your...

If a bean is defined with singleton scope, there will only be one single object instance initialized in the Spring container. All requests to this bean will return the same shared instance. This is the default scope when defining a bean. Given the following MyBean class: public class MyBean { ...

The following examples will use this class hierarchy: struct A { int m; }; struct B : A {}; struct C : B {}; The conversion from derived class type to base class type is preferred to user-defined conversions. This applies when passing by value or by reference, as well as when converting pointe...

Warning: The functions atoi, atol, atoll and atof are inherently unsafe, because: If the value of the result cannot be represented, the behavior is undefined. (7.20.1p1) #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> int main(int argc, char** argv) { int val; if (argc < 2) ...

Before we start... In terms of application layers your ViewModel is a class containing all the business logic and rules making the app do what it should according to the requirements. It's also important to make it as much independent as possible reducing references to UI, data layer, native featur...
