  • Determining CPU usage in WinCE

    - by Chris
    I want to be able to get the current % CPU usage in a C++ program running under Wince. I found this link that states where the source code is but I cannot find it in my platform builder installation - I expect this is because it isn't the Windows Automotive platform. Does anyone know where I can find this source code or (even better) know how I can get this information directly? i.e. what DLL / function calls to make etc.

  • Has the `message-passing/shared-state' dilemma (concurrency & distribution) taken form of a `Holywar

    - by Bubba88
    I'm not too well-informed about the state of the discussion about which model is better, so I would like to ask a pretty straight question: Does it look like two opposing views having really heatened dispute? E.g. like prototype/class based OOP or dynamic vs. static typing (though these are really not much fitting examples, I just do not know how to express my question more clearly)

  • Logger vs. System.out.println

    - by Amir Rachum
    Hi all, I'm using the PMD plugin for eclipse and it gives me an error when using System.out.println() with the explanation: System.(out|err).print is used, consider using a logger. My question is - What is a Logger? How is it used to print to the screen? Why is it better? Thanks.

  • Find substring ignoring specified characters

    - by Fredy Treboux
    Hello, please, does any of you knows and can share an easy/clean way to find a substring within a string, but ignoring some specified characters to find it. I think an example would explain things better: string: "Hello, -this- is a string" substring to find: "Hello this" chars to ignore: "," and "-" found the substring, result: "Hello, -this" Using Regex it's not a requirement for me, just added the tag because it feels related.

  • Casting between value types on a class using generics

    - by marcelomeikaru
    In this section of a function (.NET 2.0): public void AttachInput(T input, int inIndex) where T : struct { if (input is int) { Inputs.Add(inIndex, (int)input); InputCount++; IsResolved = false; } } The compiler shows the error "Cannot convert type 'T' to 'int'. So, I used Convert.ToInt32() which worked - but does it box input to an object? Is there a better solution? Thanks

  • Merge shapes and draw border around final shape

    - by Peter
    I can't post images yet: http://i.imgur.com/7Kci5.jpg Using Actionscript 3 I'm drawing multiple Shapes onto a MovieClip [top drawing]. The end result I need is the bottom drawing. I originally thought it would be simple to just merge the shapes and then find a way to draw a border around the end result but I can't seem to find any way of doing this. Is this possible or is there a better way of trying to do this?

  • strtotime() doesn't work with dd/mm/YYYY format!

    - by Syom
    I really like the strtotime() function, but the user manual doesn't give a complete description of the supported date formats. strtotime('dd/mm/YYYY') doesn't work, it works only with mm/dd/YYYY format. if i have date in dd/mm/YYYY format, ho can i convert it to YYYY-mm-dd? i can do it by using explode() function, but i think tere are better solution. Thanks

  • How to encrypt/decrypt a long string in PHP?

    - by jodeci
    I doubt if this is encryption but I can't find a better phrase. I need to pass a long query string like this: http://test.com/test.php?key=[some_very_loooooooooooooooooooooooong_query_string] The query string contains NO sensitive information so I'm not really concerned about security in this case. It's just...well, too long and ugly. Is there a library function that can let me encode/encrypt/compress the query string into something similar to the result of a md5() (similar as in, always a 32 character string), but decode/decrypt/decompress-able?

  • Is it good practice to name variables differently when defining more than one function?

    - by John
    For example, in this simple function where fun1 takes as input two numbers, adds them together and passes them to function 2 for printing the output. var1_in is local to each function, so is it OK to use the name var1_in in both functions, or is it better practice to call them different things? fun1 <- function (var1_in, var2_in) { var3 = var1_in + var2_in fun2(var3) } fun2 <- function (var1_in) { var4 = var1_in print(var4) }

  • Alternative for assigns() in Cucumber with Capybara?

    - by thillerson
    I'm trying out capybara with cucumber to get some better javascript test coverage. I have a lot of steps that check or use things from the Rails integration test helpers, for instance: assigns(:current_user).should_not be_nil No matter how I call assigns, even if I say something like p assigns it errors with: undefined method `template' for nil:NilClass (NoMethodError) So, it seems that I can't do that anymore. Is there an alternative to introspecting what's going on in the controller, or maybe some way of at least running those steps in such a way that I have the integration test stuff back?

  • How to bind a double precision using psycopg2

    - by user337636
    I'm trying to bind a float to a postgresql double precision using psycopg2. ele = 1.0/3.0 dic = {'name': 'test', 'ele': ele} sql = '''insert into waypoints (name, elevation) values (%(name)s, %(ele)s)''' cur = db.cursor() cur.execute(sql, dic) db.commit() sql = """select elevation from waypoints where name = 'test'""" cur.execute(sql_out) ele_out = cur.fetchone()[0] ele_out 0.33333333333300003 ele 0.33333333333333331 Obviously I don't need the precision, but I would like to be able to simply compare the values. I could use the struct module and save it as a string, but thought there should be a better way. Thanks

  • will php/apache ever support multi threading?

    - by fayer
    i mainly focus on the web, i think i will never create desktop applications. so i think it's better for me to focus on typical web languages like php. i know an advantage java has over php is multi threading though. will php ever support this feature in the future? thanks

  • Check if row exists, if not add it [MySQL]

    - by Steven
    I need to add a row to a MySQL database table but only if the row doesn't already exist. My database server just went down so I can't test this, but will this work as expected? INSERT INTO `blocks` (`block_file`,`settings_group`) VALUES ('announcements','announcement_settings') WHERE NOT EXISTS (SELECT `block_file`,`settings_group` FROM `blocks` WHERE `block_file`='announcements' AND `settings_group`='announcement_settings') It seems like sound logic. Is this a valid query or is there a better way of doing this?

  • 2 roles, admin and user. Is using anything other than basic http auth overkill?

    - by juststarting
    I'm building my first website with rails,it consists of a blog, a few static pages and a photo gallery. The admin section has namespaced controllers. I also want to create a mailing list, collecting contact info, (maybe a spree store in the future too.) Should I just use basic http authentication and check if the user is admin? Or is a plugin like authlogic better, then define user roles even though there would only be two; admin and user?

  • Manage DirectX as a starting point

    - by numerical25
    I know the difference between manage and unmanaged DirectX. My question is if I decided to do managed directX as a starting point, would it help me to better understand unmanaged DirectX. Honestly, the only thing I see different about the 2 is how you initiate and access resources. Matrix Math is Matrix no matter what so If I learn it in managed, then I should be fine in unmanaged
