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...

Magento way File resides in shell/custom.php <?php require_once' abstract.php'; class Stackoverflow_Shell_Custom extends Mage_Shell_Abstract { protected $_argname = array(); public function __construct() { parent::__construct(); // Time limit to infinity ...

The std::nth_element algorithm takes three iterators: an iterator to the beginning, nth position, and end. Once the function returns, the nth element (by order) will be the nth smallest element. (The function has more elaborate overloads, e.g., some taking comparison functors; see the above link for...

.exr -1 gives you details about the last exception thrown. !analyze -v usually does a good job as well. For .NET, the command !pe of the SOS extension shows details about the .NET exception that was thrown.

Print the path to the active developer directory (selected Xcode) xcode-select -p Select a different version of Xcode, e.g. Beta sudo xcode-select -s /Applications/Xcode-beta.app Reset to the default version of Xcode sudo xcode-select -r This is equivalent to running sudo xcode-select -s /Appl...

Ref returns and ref locals are useful for manipulating and returning references to blocks of memory instead of copying memory without resorting to unsafe pointers. Ref Return public static ref TValue Choose<TValue>( Func<bool> condition, ref TValue left, ref TValue right) { ...

The keyword partial can be used during type definition of class, struct, or interface to allow the type definition to be split into several files. This is useful to incorporate new features in auto generated code. File1.cs namespace A { public partial class Test { public string...

We're going to use the expression tree API to create a CalculateSalesTax tree. In plain English, here's a summary of the steps it takes to create the tree. Check if the product is taxable If it is, multiply the line total by the applicable tax rate and return that amount Otherwise return 0 ...

Sometimes we want to look at what is sent and received in the SOAP request. The following methods will return the XML in the request and response: SoapClient::__getLastRequest() SoapClient::__getLastRequestHeaders() SoapClient::__getLastResponse() SoapClient::__getLastResponseHeaders() For ex...

array_flip function will exchange all keys with its elements. $colors = array( 'one' => 'red', 'two' => 'blue', 'three' => 'yellow', ); array_flip($colors); //will output array( 'red' => 'one', 'blue' => 'two', 'yellow' => 'three' )

When pasting text through a terminal emulator, the auto-indent feature may destroy the indentation of the pasted text. For example: function () { echo 'foo' echo 'bar' echo 'baz' } will be pasted as: function () { echo 'foo' echo 'bar' echo 'baz' ...

When static_cast is used to convert T D::* to T B::*, the member pointed to must belong to a class that is a base class or derived class of B. Otherwise the behavior is undefined. See Derived to base conversion for pointers to members

The following uses of pointer arithmetic cause undefined behavior: Addition or subtraction of an integer, if the result does not belong to the same array object as the pointer operand. (Here, the element one past the end is considered to still belong to the array.) int a[10]; int* p1 = &a...

For the built-in shift operator, the right operand must be nonnegative and strictly less than the bit width of the promoted left operand. Otherwise, the behavior is undefined. const int a = 42; const int b = a << -1; // UB const int c = a << 0; // ok const int d = a << 32; // ...

C++11 Example from the Standard, [dcl.attr.noreturn]: [[ noreturn ]] void f() { throw "error"; // OK } [[ noreturn ]] void q(int i) { // behavior is undefined if called with an argument <= 0 if (i > 0) throw "positive"; }

In this example, a destructor is explicitly invoked for an object that will later be automatically destroyed. struct S { ~S() { std::cout << "destroying S\n"; } }; int main() { S s; s.~S(); } // UB: s destroyed a second time here A similar issue occurs when a st...

Example from the Standard, [temp.inst]/17: template<class T> class X { X<T>* p; // OK X<T*> a; // implicit generation of X<T> requires // the implicit instantiation of X<T*> which requires // the implicit instantiation of X<T**&...

Single characters can be extracted using array (square brace) syntax as well as curly brace syntax. These two syntaxes will only return a single character from the string. If more than one character is needed, a function will be required, i.e.- substr Strings, like everything in PHP, are 0-indexed....

TestNG requires JDK 7 or higher to use. According to http://testng.org/doc/download.html in order to install testng you need to add testng dependency to your maven pom.xml or gradle build.gradle file Maven: <repositories> <repository> <id>jcenter</id> <name...
