By Code-First convention, Entity Framework creates a column for every public property that is of a supported data type and has both a getter and a setter. [NotMapped] annotation must be applied to any properties that we do NOT want a column in a database table for. An example of a property that we ...

To find active ScriptableObjects during runtime, you can use Resources.FindObjectsOfTypeAll(). T[] instances = Resources.FindObjectsOfTypeAll<T>(); Where T is the type of the ScriptableObject instance you're searching. Active means it has been loaded in memory in some form before. This me...

A shallow copy is a copy of a collection without performing a copy of its elements. >>> import copy >>> c = [[1,2]] >>> d = copy.copy(c) >>> c is d False >>> c[0] is d[0] True

If you have nested lists, it is desireable to clone the nested lists as well. This action is called deep copy. >>> import copy >>> c = [[1,2]] >>> d = copy.deepcopy(c) >>> c is d False >>> c[0] is d[0] False

You can create shallow copies of lists using slices. >>> l1 = [1,2,3] >>> l2 = l1[:] # Perform the shallow copy. >>> l2 [1,2,3] >>> l1 is l2 False

A dictionary object has the method copy. It performs a shallow copy of the dictionary. >>> d1 = {1:[]} >>> d2 = d1.copy() >>> d1 is d2 False >>> d1[1] is d2[1] True

Sets also have a copymethod. You can use this method to perform a shallow copy. >>> s1 = {()} >>> s2 = s1.copy() >>> s1 is s2 False >>> s2.add(3) >>> s1 {[]} >>> s2 {3,[]}

In functional programming languages like F# null values are considered potentially harmful and poor style (non-idiomatic). Consider this C# code: string x = SomeFunction (); int l = x.Length; x.Length will throw if x is null let's add protection: string x = SomeFunction (); int l = x ...

Error handling is important but can make an elegant algorithm into a mess. Railway Oriented Programming (ROP) is used to make error handling elegant and composable. Consider the simple function f: let tryParse s = let b, v = System.Int32.TryParse s if b then Some v else None let f (g : ...

MATCH (n) WHERE n.some_attribute = "some identifier" SET n.other_attribute = "a new value"

I create a file called database-servlet.xml somewhere on the classpath. Initially your config file will look like this: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/...

One of the great things about Linq is that it is so easy to extend. You just need to create an extension method whose argument is IEnumerable<T>. public namespace MyNamespace { public static class LinqExtensions { public static IEnumerable<List<T>> Batch<T&...

To print a user-readable error message to stderr, call perror from <stdio.h>. int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { FILE *fout; if ((fout = fopen(argv[1], "w")) == NULL) { perror("fopen: Could not open file for writing"); return EXIT_FAILURE; } r...

Active Patterns can be used to make calling some .NET API's feel more natural, particularly those that use an output parameter to return more than just the function return value. For example, you'd normally call the System.Int32.TryParse method as follows: let couldParse, parsedInt = System.Int32....

The @each directive allows you to iterate through any list or map. It takes the form of @each $var or <list or map> {} where $var can be any variable name and <list or map> can be anything that returns a list or map. In the following example, the loop will iterate through the $authors l...

One of the easiest examples of using shared services is when we want to store some data from a given page of our application, and then get that data again but from another page. One option could be to send that data as a parameter (for instance, if one page calls the other one) but if we want to us...

The following sqoop command will be used to import the data from RDBMS table into HBase table, if the table does not exists in HBase it will create a new table and import the data into this table sqoop import \ --query 'select emp_id, emp_name, emp_sal from employee where $CONDITIONS' \ ...

UITextView has extra paddings by default. Sometimes it's annoying especially if you want to measure some text without view instance and place them at some area precisely. Do this to remove such paddings. messageTextView.textContainerInset = UIEdgeInsetsZero messageTextView.textContainer.lineFragm...
