  • Strange behavior of std::cout &operator<<...

    - by themoondothshine
    Hey ppl, I came across something weird today, and I was wondering if any of you here could explain what's happening... Here's a sample: #include <iostream> #include <cassert> using namespace std; #define REQUIRE_STRING(s) assert(s != 0) #define REQUIRE_STRING_LEN(s, n) assert(s != 0 || n == 0) class String { public: String(const char *str, size_t len) : __data(__construct(str, len)), __len(len) {} ~String() { __destroy(__data); } const char *toString() const { return const_cast<const char *>(__data); } String &toUpper() { REQUIRE_STRING_LEN(__data, __len); char *it = __data; while(it < __data + __len) { if(*it >= 'a' && *it <= 'z') *it -= 32; ++it; } return *this; } String &toLower() { REQUIRE_STRING_LEN(__data, __len); char *it = __data; while(it < __data + __len) { if(*it >= 'A' && *it <= 'Z') *it += 32; ++it; } return *this; } private: char *__data; size_t __len; protected: static char *__construct(const char *str, size_t len) { REQUIRE_STRING_LEN(str, len); char *data = new char[len]; std::copy(str, str + len, data); return data; } static void __destroy(char *data) { REQUIRE_STRING(data); delete[] data; } }; int main() { String s("Hello world!", __builtin_strlen("Hello world!")); cout << s.toLower().toString() << endl; cout << s.toUpper().toString() << endl; cout << s.toLower().toString() << endl << s.toUpper().toString() << endl; return 0; } Now, I had expected the output to be: hello world! HELLO WORLD! hello world! HELLO WORLD! but instead I got this: hello world! HELLO WORLD! hello world! hello world! I can't really understand why the second toUpper didn't have any effect.

  • How can I build a list of world geo locations and their relative geographical hierarchies?

    - by Nathan Ridley
    I want to build a database of geographical locations and would like to be able to identify locations that fall inside other locations. For example, The Empire State Building is going to have one geo-coordinate, but my database would be able to tell me that it falls inside Manhattan, which falls inside New York City, which is in the state of New York and so forth. I've been looking at OpenStreetMap which seems to have a pretty decent database but as best I can tell, I would need to create a set of polygon structures representing each region and then detect if a coordinate falls inside a given region's polygon. Is there a better way to do this, or is there a data source where all of this has already been calculated?

  • Why maven requires so many options to create a hello world project,can you recommend a more dedicate

    - by user198729
    Quoted from here: mvn archetype:generate -DgroupId=org.sonatype.mavenbook.simple \ -DartifactId=simple \ -DpackageName=org.sonatype.mavenbook \ -Dversion=1.0-SNAPSHOT And I also have to specify an archetype number... It seems that maven isn't satisfied to be just a Java build tool,but want to control all aspect of developing... Can someone recommend a really dedicated build tool for Java?

  • Where can I get a machine readable representation of world currencies and their symbols?

    - by Khanzor
    I'm using ASP.Net and would like to display currencies based on a country. I've had a look at http://www.xe.com/symbols.ph, http://www.xe.com/iso4217.php and http://www.iso.org/iso/support/faqs/faqs_widely_used_standards/widely_used_standards_other/currency_codes/currency_codes_list-1.htm Is there anywhere I can get something that I can load into a database? Or is there something built in to SQL Server 2005/ASP.Net to help with this?

  • How many real world developers are involved with the Demoscene?

    - by spoulson
    I grew up learning to code based on what I've experienced with the demoscene. It seems to be a pretty sparse subculture in the US. How many developers watch or participate in the scene? Teaser: If you haven't checked out the scene before, take a look at one of my favorites: Debris by Farbrausch. Watch on demoscene.tv or download the app (179k) and run it yourself. No video, all realtime rendering and audio. Think, a small group of guys wrote this for a competition on their free time.

  • How do I use cookies to store users' recent site history(PHP)?

    - by ggfan
    I decided to make a recent view box that allows users to see what links they clicked on before. Whenever they click on a posting, the posting's id gets stored in a cookie and displays it in the recent view box. In my ad.php, I have a definerecentview function that stores the posting's id (so I can call it later when trying to get the posting's information such as title, price from the database) in a cookie. How do I create a cookie array for this? **EXAMPLE:** user clicks on ad.php?posting_id='200' //this is in the ad.php function definerecentview() { $posting_id=$_GET['posting_id']; //this adds 30 days to the current time $Month = 2592000 + time(); $i=1; if (isset($posting_id)){ //lost here for($i=1,$i< ???,$i++){ setcookie("recentviewitem[$i]", $posting_id, $Month); } } } function displayrecentviews() { echo "<div class='recentviews'>"; echo "Recent Views"; if (isset($_COOKIE['recentviewitem'])) { foreach ($_COOKIE['recentviewitem'] as $name => $value) { echo "$name : $value <br />\n"; //right now just shows the posting_id } } echo "</div>"; } How do I use a for loop or foreach loop to make it that whenever a user clicks on an ad, it makes an array in the cookie? So it would be like.. 1. clicks on ad.php?posting_id=200 --- setcookie("recentviewitem[1]",200,$month); 2. clicks on ad.php?posting_id=201 --- setcookie("recentviewitem[2]",201,$month); 3. clicks on ad.php?posting_id=202 --- setcookie("recentviewitem[3]",202,$month); Then in the displayrecentitem function, I just echo however many cookies were set? I'm just totally lost in creating a for loop that sets the cookies. any help would be appreciated

  • Real world examples of Ecmascript functions returning a Reference?

    - by Bergi
    Read the EcmaScript specification, section 8.7 The Reference Specification Type: The Reference type is used to explain the behaviour of such operators as delete, typeof, and the assignment operators. […] A Reference is a resolved name binding. Function calls are permitted to return references. This possibility is admitted purely for the sake of host objects. No built-in ECMAScript function defined by this specification returns a reference and there is no provision for a user-defined function to return a reference. Those last two sentences impressed me. With this, you could do things like coolHostFn() = value (valid syntax, btw). So my question is: Are there any EcmaScript implementations that define host function objects which result in Reference values?

  • Real-world examples of populating a GWT CellTable using a clean MVP pattern?

    - by piehole
    We are using the GWT-Presenter framework and attempting to use CellTable to put together an updateable grid. It seems as though several of the GWT constructs for CellTable don't lend themselves to easily breaking up the logic into clean view and presenter code. Examples: 1) Within the View's constructor, the CellTable is defined and each column is created by anonymous inner classes that extend the Column class to provide the onValue() method. 2) The FieldUpdater interface must be implemented to provide logic to execute when a user alters data in a cell. This seems like it would best fit in the Presenter's onBind() method, but FieldUpdaters often need access to the Cell or Column which belong in the view. CellTable does not have accessor methods to get hold of the Columns or Cells, so it seems the only way for the Presenter to get them is for me to create a multitude of member variables on the View and accessors on my Display interface. Can anyone provide good examples for dealing with CellTable in GWT-Presenter or a comparable MVP

  • In the generic programming/TMP world what exactly is a model / a policy and a "concept" ?

    - by Hassan Syed
    I'd like to know the precise yet succinct definitions of these three concepts in one place. The quality of the answer should depend on the following two points. Show a simple code snippet to show how and what the concept/technique is used for. Be simple enough to understand so that a programmer without any exposure to this area can grasp it. Note: There are probably many correct answers since each concept has many different facets. If there are a lot of good answers I will eventually turn the question into CW and aggregate the answers. -- Post Accept Edit -- Boost has a nice article on generic programming concepts

  • Why in the world is this Moq + NUnit test failing?

    - by Dave Falkner
    I have this dataAccess mock object and I'm trying to verify that one of its methods is being invoked, and that the argument passed into this method fulfills certain constraints. As best I can tell, this method is indeed being invoked, and with the constraints fulfilled. This line of the test throws a MockException: data.Verify(d => d.InsertInvoice(It.Is<Invoice>(i => i.TermPaymentAmount == 0m)), Times.Once()); However, removing the constraint and accepting any invoice passes the test: data.Verify(d => d.InsertInvoice(It.IsAny<Invoice>()), Times.Once()); I've created a test windows form that instantiates this test class, runs its .Setup() method, and then calls the method which I am wishing to test. I insert a breakpoint on the line of code where the mock object is failing the test data.InsertInvoice(invoice); to actually hover over the invoice, and I can confirm that its .TermPaymentAmount decimal property is indeed zero at the time the method is invoked. Out of desperation, I even added a call back to my dataAccess mock: data.Setup(d => d.InsertInvoice(It.IsAny<Invoice>())).Callback((Invoice inv) => System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox.Show(inv.TermPaymentAmount.ToString("G17"))); And this gives me a message box showing "0". This is really baffling me, and no one else in my shop has been able to figure this out. Any help would be appreciated. A barely related question, which I should probably ask independently, is whether it is preferable to use Mock.Verify(...) as I have here, or to use Mock.Expect(...).Verifiable followed by Mock.VerifyAll() as I have seen other people doing? If the answer is situational, which situations would warrent the use of one over the other?

  • traits in php – any real world examples/best practices?

    - by Max
    Traits have been one of the biggest additions for PHP 5.4. I know the synatax and understand the idea behind traits, like horizontal code re-usage for common stuff like logging, security, caching etc. However, I still dont know yet how I would make use of traits in my projects. Are there any open source projects that already use traits? Any good articles/reading material on how to structure architectures using traits?

  • Parallel programming, are we not learning from history again?

    - by mezmo
    I started programming because I was a hardware guy that got bored, I thought the problems being solved in the software side of things were much more interesting than those in hardware. At that time, most of the electrical buses I dealt with were serial, some moving data as fast as 1.5 megabit!! ;) Over the years these evolved into parallel buses in order to speed communication up, after all, transferring 8/16/32/64, whatever bits at a time incredibly speeds up the transfer. Well, our ability to create and detect state changes got faster and faster, to the point where we could push data so fast that interference between parallel traces or cable wires made cleaning the signal too expensive to continue, and we still got reasonable performance from serial interfaces, heck some graphics interfaces are even happening over USB for a while now. I think I'm seeing a like trend in software now, our processors were getting faster and faster, so we got good at building "serial" software. Now we've hit a speed bump in raw processor speed, so we're adding cores, or "traces" to the mix, and spending a lot of time and effort on learning how to properly use those. But I'm also seeing what I feel are advances in things like optical switching and even quantum computing that could take us far more quickly that I was expecting back to the point where "serial programming" again makes the most sense. What are your thoughts?

  • Are compound command's second and subsequent lines not effected by HISTCONTROL in bash?

    - by UniMouS
    When consulting bash's man page, it read this sentence about bash history: The second and subsequent lines of a multi-line compound command are not tested, and are added to the history regardless of the value of HISTCONTROL. But I have tried this: $ HISTCONTROL=ignorespace $ if [ -f /var/log/messages ] > then > echo "/var/log/message exists." > fi $ history | tail -2 18 HISTCONTROL=ignorespace 19 history | tail -2 Note that the if is leaded by a space. Why the second line of this if compound command still not appear in the history?

  • How to define a history chart in crystal reports .net (2008)?

    - by hp
    Hi, I want to display a Bar Chart in a Report that shows the sum of a measure grouped by month for the last 24 month. The months that do not have any tuples do not show up in the graph. I do not want that. I want exactly 24 groups/bars that are 0 if there are no tuples. What is the best way to do this? thanks

  • Backbone.js: How to utilize router.navigate to manipulate browser history?

    - by Xavier_Ex
    I am writing something like a registration process containing several steps, and I want to make it a single-page like system so after some studying Backbone.js is my choice. Every time the user completes the current step they will click on a NEXT button I create and I use the router.navigate method to update the url, as well as loading the content of the next page and doing some fancy transition with javascript. Result is, URL is updated which the page is not refreshed, giving a smooth user experience. However, when the user clicks on the back button of the browser, the URL gets updated to that of a previous step, but the content stays the same. My question is through what way I can capture such an event and currently load the content of the previous step and present that to the user? Or even better, can I rely on browser cache to load that previously loaded page? EDIT: in particular, I'm trying something like mentioned in this article.
