Constructor Injection

Constructor injection is the safest way of injecting dependencies that a whole class depends upon. Such dependencies are often referred to as invariants, since an instance of the class cannot be created without supplying them. By requiring the dependency to be injected at construction, it is guara...

Property Injection

Property injection allows a classes dependencies to be updated after it has been created. This can be useful if you want to simplify object creation, but still allow the dependencies to be overridden by your tests with test doubles. Consider a class that needs to write to a log file in an error co...

Method Injection

Method injection is a fine grained way of injecting dependencies into processing. Consider a method that does some processing based on the current date. The current date is hard to change from a test, so it is much easier to pass a date into the method that you want to test. public void ProcessRe...

Containers / DI Frameworks

Whilst extracting dependencies out of your code so that they can be injected makes your code easier to test, it pushes the problem further up the hierarchy and can also result in objects that are difficult to construct. Various dependency injection frameworks / Inversion of Control Containers have ...

Squash Recent Commits Without Rebasing

If you want to squash the previous x commits into a single one, you can use the following commands: git reset --soft HEAD~x git commit Replacing x with the number of previous commits you want to be included in the squashed commit. Mind that this will create a new commit, essentially forgetting...

Squashing Commits During a Rebase

Commits can be squashed during a git rebase. It is recommended that you understand rebasing before attempting to squash commits in this fashion. Determine which commit you would like to rebase from, and note its commit hash. Run git rebase -i [commit hash]. Alternatively, you can type HE...

Getting the active theme URL

<?php echo esc_url( get_bloginfo( 'stylesheet_directory' ) ); ?> Output http://example.com/wp-content/themes/twentysixteen Alternatives Internally, get_bloginfo( 'stylesheet_directory' ) calls get_stylesheet_directory_uri(), so you may want to use that instead: <?php echo esc_url( ...

Hello World

This program, saved to a file named HelloWorld.dpr, compiles to a console application that prints "Hello World" to the console: program HelloWorld; {$APPTYPE CONSOLE} begin WriteLn('Hello World'); end.

Generalized capture

C++14 Lambdas can capture expressions, rather than just variables. This permits lambdas to store move-only types: auto p = std::make_unique<T>(...); auto lamb = [p = std::move(p)]() //Overrides capture-by-value of `p`. { p->SomeFunc(); }; This moves the outer p variable into th...

Capture by reference

If you precede a local variable's name with an &, then the variable will be captured by reference. Conceptually, this means that the lambda's closure type will have a reference variable, initialized as a reference to the corresponding variable from outside of the lambda's scope. Any use of the v...

Default capture

By default, local variables that are not explicitly specified in the capture list, cannot be accessed from within the lambda body. However, it is possible to implicitly capture variables named by the lambda body: int a = 1; int b = 2; // Default capture by value [=]() { return a + b; }; // OK;...

Your First Controller

A controller is a basic structure used in Angular to preserve scope and handle certain actions within a page. Each controller is coupled with an HTML view. Below is a basic boilerplate for an Angular app: <!DOCTYPE html> <html lang="en" ng-app='MyFirstApp'> <head...

Recursive setTimeout

To repeat a function indefinitely, setTimeout can be called recursively: function repeatingFunc() { console.log("It's been 5 seconds. Execute the function again."); setTimeout(repeatingFunc, 5000); } setTimeout(repeatingFunc, 5000); Unlike setInterval, this ensures that t...

Console.ReadLine()

Dim input as String = Console.ReadLine() Console.ReadLine() will read the console input from the user, up until the next newline is detected (usually upon pressing the Enter or Return key). Code execution is paused in the current thread until a newline is provided. Afterwards, the next line of co...

Avoiding namespace collisions

Libraries other than jQuery may also use $ as an alias. This can cause interference between those libraries and jQuery. To release $ for use with other libraries: jQuery.noConflict(); After calling this function, $ is no longer an alias for jQuery. However, you can still use the variable jQuery...
