  • Path.Combine for Urls?

    - by Brian MacKay
    Path.Combine is handy, is there a similiar function in the framework for Urls? I'm looking for syntax like this: Url.Combine("Http://MyUrl.com/", "/Images/Image.jpg") ...Which would return: "Http://MyUrl.com/Images/Image.jpg" ...Of course string concatenation would be fine here since the '//' would be handled intelligently by the browser. But it feels a little less elegant.

  • UITabBar without labels (like Tweetie 2/Twitter for iPhone)

    - by John Biesnecker
    I'd like to build an app with a tabbar in the style of Tweetie 2/Twitter for iPhone (that is, images with no labels). I can't see a way to do it with normal UITabBarController/UITabBar, and my current thinking is that it's actually a UIToolbar with a custom view controller that is pushing and popping views from an array to simulate the UITabBarController's default behavior. Is this the approach that you all would recommend, or is there something more elegant that I'm overlooking?

  • "Bootstrap" python script in the Windows shell without .py / .pyw associations

    - by PabloG
    Sometimes (in customer's PCs) I need a python script to execute in the Windows shell like a .CMD or .BAT, but without having the .py or .pyw extensions associated with PYTHON / PYTHONW. I came out with a pair of 'quick'n dirty' solutions: 1) """ e:\devtool\python\python.exe %0 :: or %PYTHONPATH%\python.exe goto eof: """ # Python test print "[works, but shows shell errors]" 2) @echo off for /f "skip=4 delims=xxx" %%l in (%0) do @echo %%l | e:\devtools\python\python.exe goto :eof ::---------- # Python test print "[works better, but is somewhat messy]" Do you know a better solution? (ie: more concise or elegant)

  • ATL CString or_bstr_t?

    - by Gopalakrishnan Subramani
    In our COM project, we need to choose between best string class implementation so that BSTR (used for COM interfaces) and elegant string class like CString provides many string manipulation APIs. Are there any better way to handle the strings and string operations so that it can be BSTR complaints as well as we can have naive CString operations?

  • Load external style sheets on request from a different origin

    - by AshTek
    Hi, Is there a plugin or feature in jQuery that enables the dynamic loading of stylesheets from different origins similar to $.getJSON() or $.getScript()? I am able to dynamically integrate a style sheet from the same origin, but I need to be able to dynamically inject a jQuery UI theme from a different origin into a page. I guess I can load the CSS file as JSON data and then apply the contents using $().css(); however, I was looking for a more elegant solution. Thanks

  • How should I map multidimensional to jagged arrays?

    - by mafutrct
    I'd like to map Foo[,] to Foo[][] and back. There are simple solutions using loops, but isn't there something more elegant? In my specific case, this is required in this scenario: [DataContract] class A { // can't serialize this thingy private readonly Foo[,] _Foo; [DataMember] private Foo[][] SerializableFoo { get { // map here } set { // map here } } } I'm aware there are advanced solutions using IDataContractSurrogate but this seems to be overkill in my case.

  • UITableView section index overlaps search bar

    - by Snej
    Hi: I want to display a section index in an UITableView with a search bar in the table view header (not section header). But the index strip is now overlapping the search bar. Is there an elegant solution to avoid this and let the index start below the table header?

  • MATLAB: vectorized array creation from a list of start/end indices

    - by merv
    I have a two-column matrix M that contains the start/end indices of a bunch of intervals: startInd EndInd 1 3 6 10 12 12 15 16 How can I generate a vector of all the interval indices: v = [1 2 3 6 7 8 9 10 12 15 16]; I'm doing the above using loops, but I'm wondering if there's a more elegant vectorized solution? v = []; for i=1:size(M,1) v = [v M(i,1):M(i,2)]; end

  • HTML::Mason file upload

    - by marghi
    Recently I've been trying to get some files uploaded on to my server in my HTML::Mason application. All good no problems there apparently Mason a filehandle directly in the argument. The problem is that I cannot retrieve the filename from that filehandle in a elegant way. One method of resolving this issue is parsing the filename on the client before sending it to the server and placing the extracted value in a hidden field so that it gets sent upon submit. BUT that is very unsafe!

  • Lazy Evaluation in Bash

    - by User1
    Is there more elegant way of doing lazy evaluation than the following: pattern='$x and $y' x=1 y=2 eval "echo $pattern" results: 1 and 2 It works but eval "echo ..." just feels sloppy and may be insecure in some way. Is there a better way to do this in Bash?

  • How to tell Java SAX Parser to ignore invalid character references?

    - by Epaga
    When trying to parse incorrect XML with a character reference such as &#x1, Java's SAX Parser dies a horrible death with a fatal error such as org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: Character reference "&#x1" is an invalid XML character. Is there any way around this? Will I have to clean up the XML file before I hand it off to the SAX Parser? If so, is there an elegant way of going about this?

  • Is there a simple way to convert MySQL data into Title Case?

    - by john.designop.us
    I have a MySQL table where all the data in one column was entered in UPPERCASE, but I need to convert in to Title Case, with recognition of "small words" akin to the Daring Fireball Title Case script. I found this excellent solution for transforming strings to lowercase, but the Title Case function seems to have been left out of my version of MySQL. Is there an elegant way to do this?

  • WPF treeview with rounded corners

    - by BrettRobi
    I have a treeview in a UI full of rounded corners, so I'd like the treeview to match. Is it possible in xaml to change the border of a treeview to have rounded corners? I've thought about hiding the border and putting the treeview inside a rounded rectangle, but this loses real-estate and seems in-elegant. Any ideas?

  • Generate random coordinates from area outside of a rectangle?

    - by Rockmaninoff
    Hi all, I'm working on a simple tutorial, and I'd like to randomly generate the positions of the red and green boxes in the accompanying images anywhere inside the dark gray area, but not in the white area. Are there any particularly elegant algorithms to do this? There are some hackish ideas I have that are really simple (continue to generate while the coordinates are not outside the inside rectangle, etc.), but I was wondering if anyone had come up with some neat solutions. Thanks for any help!

  • What are the benefits of using Boost.Phoenix?

    - by Denis Shevchenko
    Hello all! I can not understand what the real benefits of using Boost.Phoenix. When I use it with Boost.Spirit grammars, it's really useful: double_[ boost::phoenix::push_back( boost::phoenix::ref( v ), _1 ) ] When I use it for lambda functions, it's also useful and elegant: boost::range::for_each( my_string, if_ ( '\\' == arg1 ) [ arg1 = '/' ] ); But what are the benefits of everything else in this library? The documentation says: "Functors everywhere". I don't understand what is the good of it?

  • Call task more than once in Rails 3 generator

    - by balexand
    I'm writing a Rails 3 generator that creates two different models. Here's a very simplified example of what I'm trying to do: def my_generator_task invoke "model", ["foo"] invoke "model", ["bar"] end The problem is that the Thor invoke method only invokes a task once, so the second call to the "model" task never happens and the "bar" model is never created. Does anyone know an elegant way to accomplish this, preferably in a way that doesn't break the ability to run "rails destroy" with the generator?

  • Django: Generating a queryset from a GET request

    - by Nimmy Lebby
    I have a Django form setup using GET method. Each value corresponds to attributes of a Django model. What would be the most elegant way to generate the query? Currently this is what I do in the view: def search_items(request): if 'search_name' in request.GET: query_attributes = {} query_attributes['color'] = request.GET.get('color', '') if not query_attributes['color']: del query_attributes['color'] query_attributes['shape'] = request.GET.get('shape', '') if not query_attributes['shape']: del query_attributes['shape'] items = Items.objects.filter(**query_attributes) But I'm pretty sure there's a better way to go about it.

  • Grails efficient hasMany-Relationship in View

    - by Jan
    Hi folks, I'm saving contacts (email, mobile phone, ICQ, AIM etc.) for people like this: class Person { static hasMany = { contacts: Contact } } class Contact { String code ContactType type } class ContactType { String name } In my view, I've written some Templates for displaying each contact with a select-box for the contact-type and a textfield for the code, spiced up with some JavaScript for adding and deleting. My question is: Is there an easy and elegant way to update the data similar to personInstance.properties = params or do I have to read out all the fields, deleting removed, updating changed and adding new ones?

  • Calculating multiple column average in SQLite3

    - by Benjamin Oakes
    I need to average some values in a row-wise fashion, rather than a column-wise fashion. (If I were doing a column-wise average, I could just use avg()). My specific application of this requires me ignore NULLs in averaging. It's pretty straightforward logic, but seems awfully difficult to do in SQL. Is there an elegant way of doing my calculation? I'm using SQLite3, for what it's worth. Details If you need more details, here's an illustration: I have a a table with a survey: | q1 | q2 | q3 | ... | q144 | |----|-------|-------|-----|------| | 1 | 3 | 7 | ... | 2 | | 4 | 2 | NULL | ... | 1 | | 5 | NULL | 2 | ... | 3 | (Those are just some example values and simple column names. The valid values are 1 through 7 and NULL.) I need to calculate some averages like so: q7 + q33 + q38 + q40 + ... + q119 / 11 as domain_score_1 q10 + q11 + q34 + q35 + ... + q140 / 13 as domain_score_2 ... q2 + q5 + q13 + q25 + ... + q122 / 12 as domain_score_14 ...but i need to pull out the nulls and average based on the non-nulls. So, for domain_score_1 (which has 11 items), I would need to do: Input: 3, 5, NULL, 7, 2, NULL, 3, 1, 5, NULL, 1 (3 + 5 + 7 + 2 + 3 + 1 + 5 + 1) / (11 - 3) 27 / 8 3.375 A simple algorithm I'm considering is: Input: 3, 5, NULL, 7, 2, NULL, 3, 1, 5, NULL, 1 Coalesce each value to 0 if NULL: 3, 5, 0, 7, 2, 0, 3, 1, 5, 0, 1 Sum: 27 Get the number of non-zeros by converting values 0 to 1 and sum: 3, 5, 0, 7, 2, 0, 3, 1, 5, 0, 1 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1 8 Divide those two numbers 27 / 8 3.375 But that seems like a lot more programming than this should take. Is there an elegant way of doing this that I'm not aware of? Update: Unless I'm misunderstanding something, avg() won't work for this. Example of what I would want to do: select avg(q7, q33, q38, ..., q119) from survey; Output: SQL error near line 3: wrong number of arguments to function avg()
