One of the most common errors in compilation happens during the linking stage. The error looks similar to this: $ gcc undefined_reference.c /tmp/ccoXhwF0.o: In function `main': undefined_reference.c:(.text+0x15): undefined reference to `foo' collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status $ So l...

Const baseString As String = "Hello World" Dim charLength As Long charLength = Len(baseString) 'charlength = 11

Const baseString As String = "Hello World" Dim byteLength As Long byteLength = LenB(baseString) 'byteLength = 22

When checking if a string is zero-length, it is better practice, and more efficient, to inspect the length of the string rather than comparing the string to an empty string. Const myString As String = vbNullString 'Prefer this method when checking if myString is a zero-length string If Len(mySt...

It may be a good idea to encapsulate the HTTP handling logic in its own class. The following class exposes a method for getting Posts. It calls the http.get() method and calls .map on the returned Observable to convert the Response object to a Post object. import {Injectable} from "@angular/co...

Const string1 As String = "foo" Const string2 As String = "bar" Const string3 As String = "fizz" Dim concatenatedString As String 'Concatenate two strings concatenatedString = string1 & string2 'concatenatedString = "foobar" 'Concatenate three s...

Python uses internal caching for a range of integers to reduce unnecessary overhead from their repeated creation. In effect, this can lead to confusing behavior when comparing integer identities: >>> -8 is (-7 - 1) False >>> -3 is (-2 - 1) True and, using another example: ...

The purpose of this example is to show how we can realize the Strategy pattern using Java 8 functional interfaces. We will start with a simple use case codes in classic Java, and then recode it in the Java 8 way. The example problem we using is a family of algorithms (strategies) that describe dif...

Some properties are not automatically inherited from an element down to its' children. This is because those properties are typically desired to be unique to the element (or selection of elements) to which the property is applied to. Common such properties are margin, padding, background, display, e...

// Uses Windows authentication. Replace the Trusted_Connection parameter with // User Id=...;Password=...; to use SQL Server authentication instead. You may // want to find the appropriate connection string for your server. string connectionString = @"Server=myServer\myInstance;Database=myDa...

Pseudo-elements are often used to change the look of lists (mostly for unordered lists, ul). The first step is to remove the default list bullets: ul { list-style-type: none; } Then you add the custom styling. In this example, we will create gradient boxes for bullets. li:before { conte...

The <see> tag can be used to link to another class. It contains the cref member which should contain the name of the class that is to be referenced. Visual Studio will provide Intellsense when writing this tag and such references will be processed when renaming the referenced class, too. /// ...

Here's how to match a prefix code (a + or (00), then a number from 1 to 1939, with an optional space): This doesn't look for a valid prefix but something that might be a prefix. See the full list of prefixes (?:00|\+)?[0-9]{4} Then, as the entire phone number length is, at most, 15, we can look...

Sometimes we need preserve whole model and transfer it across actions or even controllers. Storing model at session good solution for this type of requirements. If we combine this with powerful model binding features of MVC we get elegant way of doing so. We can create generic session based model bi...

Read the accelerometer Sensor with precision. This example allocates memory: void Update() { //Get Precise Accelerometer values Vector3 accelValue = preciseAccelValue(); Debug.Log("PRECISE X: " + accelValue.x + " Y: " + accelValue.y + " Z: " + acc...

Given a String containing the name of a class, it's Class object can be accessed using Class.forName: Class clazz = null; try { clazz = Class.forName("java.lang.Integer"); } catch (ClassNotFoundException ex) { throw new IllegalStateException(ex); } Java SE 1.2 It can be s...

You can reload the current state using the $state.reload method from your controller $state.reload() This is a shorthand for (code taken from the official docs) $state.transitionTo($state.current, $stateParams, { reload: true, inherit: false, notify: false }); Running a reload on your ...

$state.go is shorthand method to $state.transitionTo $state.go(toState [, toParams] [, options]) This method automatically sets your options to { location: true, inherit: true, relative: $state.$current, notify: true } (unless you override them) and allows you to transition with less code. Ex...

In many cases, for instance when using web views in table view cells, it's important to determine the content size of the rendered HTML page. After loading the page, this can be calculated in the UIWebViewDelegate delegate method: - (void) webViewDidFinishLoad:(UIWebView *) aWebView { CGRect f...
