To begin, install Node.js on your development computer. Windows: Navigate to the download page and download/run the installer. Mac: Navigate to the download page and download/run the installer. Alternatively, you can install Node via Homebrew using brew install node. Homebrew is a command-line pac...

There are different data types for different purposes. PHP does not have explicit type definitions, but the type of a variable is determined by the type of the value that is assigned, or by the type that it is casted to. This is a brief overview about the types, for a detailed documentation and exam...

Streams provide the most direct access to the binary content, so any InputStream / OutputStream implementations always operate on ints and bytes. // Read a single byte from the stream int b = inputStream.read(); if (b >= 0) { // A negative value represents the end of the stream, normal values ...

The quick start guide includes information about using Docker to stand up a Bosun instance. $ docker run -d -p 4242:4242 -p 80:8070 stackexchange/bosun This will create a new instance of Bosun which you can access by opening a browser to http://docker-server-ip. The docker image includes HBase/O...

There are two types of events emitted by a Preferences object: PreferenceChangeEvent and NodeChangeEvent. PreferenceChangeEvent A PreferenceChangeEvent gets emitted by a Properties object every time one of the node's key-value-pairs changes. PreferenceChangeEvents can be listened for with a Prefer...

Preferences objects always represent a specific node in a whole Preferences tree, kind of like this: /userRoot ├── com │   └── mycompany │   └── myapp │   ├── darkApplicationMode=true │   ├── showExitConfirmation=false │   └── windowMaximized=true └── org └...

All instances of Preferences are always thread-safe across the threads of a single Java Virtual Machine (JVM). Because Preferences can be shared across multiple JVMs, there are special methods that deal with synchronizing changes across virtual machines. If you have an application which is supposed...

A very common guideline in object oriented design is "as little as possible but as much as necessary". This also applies to the strategy pattern: It is usually advisable to hide implementation details, for example which classes actually implement strategies. For simple strategies which do...

Iterators and pointers pointing into an std::vector can become invalid, but only when performing certain operations. Using invalid iterators/pointers will result in undefined behavior. Operations which invalidate iterators/pointers include: Any insertion operation which changes the capacity of...

CASE's shorthand variant evaluates an expression (usually a column) against a series of values. This variant is a bit shorter, and saves repeating the evaluated expression over and over again. The ELSE clause can still be used, though: SELECT Id, ItemId, Price, CASE Price WHEN 5 THEN 'CHEAP' ...

When calling a function without an explicit namespace qualifier, the compiler can choose to call a function within a namespace if one of the parameter types to that function is also in that namespace. This is called "Argument Dependent Lookup", or ADL: namespace Test { int call(int i)...

The struct template std::pair can bundle together exactly two return values, of any two types: #include <utility> std::pair<int, int> foo(int a, int b) { return std::make_pair(a+b, a-b); } With C++11 or later, an initializer list can be used instead of std::make_pair: C++11 ...

void Main() { unsafe { int[] a = {1, 2, 3}; fixed(int* b = a) { Console.WriteLine(b[4]); } } } Running this code creates an array of length 3, but then tries to get the 5th item (index 4). On my machine, this printed 1910457872, bu...

The ID attribute of an element is an identifier which must be unique in the whole document. Its purpose is to uniquely identify the element when linking (using an anchor), scripting, or styling (with CSS). <div id="example-id"></div> You should not have two elements with th...

The datetime module contains three primary types of objects - date, time, and datetime. import datetime # Date object today = datetime.date.today() new_year = datetime.date(2017, 01, 01) #datetime.date(2017, 1, 1) # Time object noon = datetime.time(12, 0, 0) #datetime.time(12, 0) # Curr...

C++11 for loops can be used to iterate over the elements of a iterator-based range, without using a numeric index or directly accessing the iterators: vector<float> v = {0.4f, 12.5f, 16.234f}; for(auto val: v) { std::cout << val << " "; } std::cout <<...

This uses the Dropbox Python SDK to upload a file to the Dropbox API from the local file as specified by file_path to the remote path as specified by dest_path. It also chooses whether or not to use an upload session based on the size of the file: f = open(file_path) file_size = os.path.getsize(fi...
