  • Which are the most useful techniques for faster Bluetooth?

    - by Mike Howard
    Hi. I'm adding peer-to-peer bluetooth using GameKit to an iPhone shoot-em-up, so speed is vital. I'm sending about 40 messages a second each way, most of them with the faster GKSendDataUnreliable, all serializing with NSCoding. In testing between a 3G and 3GS, this is slowing the 3G down a lot more than I'd like. I'm wondering where I should concentrate my efforts to speed it up. How much slower is GKSendDataReliable? For the few packets that have to get there, would it be faster to send a GKSendDataUnreliable and have the peer send an acknowledgement so I can send again if I don't get the Ack within, say, 100ms? How much faster would it be to create the NSData instance using a regular C array rather than archiving with the NSCoding protocol? Is this serialization process (for about a dozen floats) just as slow as you'd expect from an object creation/deallocation overhead, or is something particularly slow happening? I heard that (for example) sending four seperate sets of data is much, much slower, than sending one piece of data four times the size. Would I make a significant saving by sending separate packets of data that wouldn't always go together in the same packet when they happen at the same time? Are there any other bluetooth performance secrets I've missed? Thanks for your help.

  • How can I refer to a binding converter in another namespace in Silverlight XAML?

    - by Mike Pateras
    Since you apparently can't create a Silverlight DataTemplate in C#, I'm trying to create one in XAML. I have a converter that I need to refer to, that I have defined in C# in another namespace. I've tried doing this: <UserControl.Resources> <DataTemplate x:Key="PriceTemplate"> <TextBlock Text="{Binding Price, Converter={Converters:PriceConverter}}" /> </DataTemplate> </UserControl.Resources> Where Converters is an xmlns that points to the correct namespace. However, I get a compilation error that says: Type 'Converters:PriceConverter' is used like a markup extension but does not derive from MarkupExtension. I tried adding System.Windows.Markup.MarkupExtension as a parent to my converter, but it apparently doesn't exist in Silverlight. How can I refer to my converter in XAML, without having to rewrite it in XAML?

  • Logging out of Facebook invalidates offline_access token

    - by Mike Pateras
    I'm getting an offline access token like this: https://graph.facebook.com/oauth/access_token?scope=offline_access&client_id=MYCLIENTID&redirect_uri=MYREDIRECTURI&client_secret=MYSECRET&code=MYCODE obviously the MYCLIENTID and stuff have been changed for the sake of this post. Anyway, as soon as the user logs out of facebook, the key seems to no longer be valid. Am I not requesting offline_access properly (there's still an "expires" value on it, should there be if it is actually getting offline access), or is that just how it works? If it's the latter, how can I get a key that will persist, regardless of if the user logs out of facebook? I'm sure this is possible, because Tweetdeck can still write to Facebook, even though I'm currently logged out.

  • pass custom environment variables to System.Diagnostics.Process

    - by Mike Ruhlin
    I'm working on an app that invokes external processes like so: ProcessStartInfo startInfo = new ProcessStartInfo(PathToExecutable, Arguments){ ErrorDialog = false, RedirectStandardError = true, RedirectStandardOutput = true, UseShellExecute = false, CreateNoWindow = true, WorkingDirectory = WorkingDirectory }; using (Process process = new Process()) { process.StartInfo = startInfo; process.Start(); process.BeginErrorReadLine(); process.BeginOutputReadLine(); process.WaitForExit(); return process.ExitCode; } One of the processes I'm calling depends on an environment variable that I'd rather not require my users to set. Is there any way to modify the environment variables that get sent to the external process? Ideally I'd be able to make them visible only to the process that's running, but if I have to programmatically set them system-wide, I'll settle for that (but, would UAC force me to run as administrator to do that?) ProcessStartInfo.EnvironmentVariables is read only, so a lot of help that is...

  • How can one enforce calling a base class function after derived class constructor?

    - by Mike Elkins
    I'm looking for a clean C++ idiom for the following situation: class SomeLibraryClass { public: SomeLibraryClass() { /* start initialization */ } void addFoo() { /* we are a collection of foos */ } void funcToCallAfterAllAddFoos() { /* Making sure this is called is the issue */ } }; class SomeUserClass : public SomeLibraryClass { public: SomeUserClass() { addFoo(); addFoo(); addFoo(); // SomeUserClass has three foos. } }; class SomeUserDerrivedClass : public SomeUserClass { public: SomeUserDerrivedClass() { addFoo(); // This one has four foos. } }; So, what I really want is for SomeLibraryClass to enforce the calling of funcToCallAfterAllAddFoos at the end of the construction process. The user can't put it at the end of SomeUserClass::SomeUserClass(), that would mess up SomeUserDerrivedClass. If he puts it at the end of SomeUserDerrivedClass, then it never gets called for SomeUserClass. To further clarify what I need, imagine that /* start initialization */ acquires a lock, and funcToCallAfterAllAddFoos() releases a lock. The compiler knows when all the initializations for an object are done, but can I get at that information by some nice trick?

  • jquery next() outside of div

    - by mike
    Hi, I'm trying to use next() to toggle a div. The problem is that the "trigger" is in a different div than the one I want to toggle. An example that works: $("span.trigger").click(function(){ $(this).next("div.task_description").slideToggle("fast"); }); <span class="trigger">The trigger</span> <div class="task_description "> some content </div> But the way I need the html setup is: <div> <span class="trigger">The trigger</span> </div> <div class="task_description "> some content </div> That doesn't work... any suggestions?

  • Problems getting PowerPoint Combobox to list items correctly

    - by mike toyn
    I am creating a PowerPoint in which I want users to be able to select an item from a list in a combo box. Nothing needs to happen after this, it is just to provide a record, on screen, of their choice. My problem is that I seem to either be able to populate the combo box and users can select an item but the list gets longer each time the combobox is clicked on (i.e each time it is clicked on the list gets duplicated). Or alternatively, I can clear the combo box, then populate it but in this scenario, the users choice also seems to get cleared. VBA example 1: Private Sub ComboBox1_DropButtonClick() With ComboBox1 .AddItem " ", 0 .AddItem "speed", 1 .AddItem "provisionality", 2 .AddItem "automation", 3 .AddItem "replication", 4 .AddItem "communicability", 5 .AddItem "multi-modality", 6 .AddItem "non-linearity", 7 .AddItem "capacity", 8 .AddItem "interactivity", 9 End With End Sub VBA example 2: Private Sub ComboBox1_DropButtonClick() ComboBox1.Clear With ComboBox1 .AddItem " ", 0 .AddItem "speed", 1 .AddItem "provisionality", 2 .AddItem "automation", 3 .AddItem "replication", 4 .AddItem "communicability", 5 .AddItem "multi-modality", 6 .AddItem "non-linearity", 7 .AddItem "capacity", 8 .AddItem "interactivity", 9 End With End Sub Can anyone help?

  • How should I generate HTML to represent class and its properties?

    - by Mike
    Currently I have a class that represents a document. This document needs to be displayed as HTML. I would like to have a method to call such as GetHTML() that would then call GetHTML() on any properties/sections of the document that needed to be rendered. I was initially thinking about using linq and XElement but am wondering if that may cause issues with certain tags in HTML. Would I better off using an HtmlTextWriter? I am open to any suggestions or best practives for this situation. Thanks!

  • Applescript for a Newbie: Copy file to a new folder.

    - by Mike
    Hi there! I've also posted this on the macnn forums, but thought I may get a better response here. I was hoping to find some help with using applescript (something I have never tried before, though I have a good knowledge of php etc) I need to create an applescript that will copy specified files from one folder to a newly created folder. These files need to be specified in the applescript. so something like: start fileToBeMoved = "Desktop/Test Folder 1/test.doc" newfoldername = "Test Folder 2" make newfolder and name it 'newfoldername' copy 'fileToBeMoved' to 'newfolder' end I'm so sorry for the rubbish description! Hope someone can help! Thanks!

  • Possible to have ampersands ("&") in URL BEFORE the query string?

    - by Mike Crittenden
    My client is determined to have a page at /nfm&t so I made a directory named nfm&t with an index.html (to test) and that URL is still throwing a 404. So apparently it's not that easy. Any ideas? Or is there a way to just redirect nfm&t to nfmt, so that the URL at least resolves? This is a Windows server, by the way, which throws a wrench into how I'm used to doing redirects.

  • IronPython memory leak?

    - by Mike Gates
    Run this: for i in range(1000000000): a = [] It looks like the list objects being created never get marked for garbage collection. From a memory profiler, it looks like the interpreter's stack frame is holding onto all the list objects, so GC can never do anything about it. Is this by design?

  • jquery ui autcomplete does not disapper with no result

    - by mike
    Hi, I'm using jquery ui autocomplete with the following code: $('#company').autocomplete({ source: function(request, response) { var company_name = $('#company').val(); $.ajax({ type: 'post', url: 'http://new.admin.localhost/client/helper/lookup_company_name', cache: false, data: { company : company_name }, dataType: 'json', success: function(data) { //alert(data); response($.map(data.companies, function(item) { return { label: item.company, value: item.company } })) } }) }, minLength: 2, }); This works as expected... The problem is, if the first few chars match something and then you enter a char that should "break" any match, it just keeps the drop down in place with the results for the last matched char... make sense? Would this be something I needed to change in the script that returns the data or something in the jquery? thanks!

  • Should constant contructor aguments be passed by reference or value?

    - by Mike
    When const values are passed to an object construct should they be passed by reference or value? If you pass by value and the arguments are immediately fed to initializes are two copies being made? Is this something that the compiler will automatically take care of. I have noticed that all textbook examples of constructors and intitializers pass by value but this seems inefficient to me. class Point { public: int x; int y; Point(const int _x, const int _y) : x(_x), y(_y) {} }; int main() { const int a = 1, b = 2; Point p(a,b); Point q(3,5); cout << p.x << "," << p.y << endl; cout << q.x << "," << q.y << endl; } vs. class Point { public: int x; int y; Point(const int& _x, const int& _y) : x(_x), y(_y) {} }; Both compile and do the same thing but which is correct?

  • Google Maps API v3.9: Blurry custom markers when zooming

    - by Mike
    So it appears that Google have fixed the blurry map issue with the 3.9 / 3.10 API, which is great. But there's a new one with custom markers. As soon as you zoom in one level, the custom markers become corrupted / blurry. They rectify themselves if zooming out, although the process of zooming out also makes the markers slightly blurry. The 3.8 API does not exhibit this problem with custom markers. Here's a picture illustrating the problem (I suggest you open the image in a new tab; the blurriness isn't as easily visible when the image is scaled to fit this post). The blurring is most noticeable with the straight lines of the paper crane marker: I've had a prod through the HTML, but I can't really tell how the markers are placed on the map. But I thought that I'd put this issue out there for anyone who has experienced similar, or if anyone has any thoughts on how this can be resolved, save waiting to see if it's a glitch in the API.

  • Batch convert Malformed PDFs to TIF on Linux

    - by Mike Driscoll
    I need to convert a multipage PDF to TIF, but it appears to be a malformed PDF provided by our client. I tried using ImageMagick and GhostScript, but they do not convert the file correctly. The result is only about 85-90% correct. The only thing I've found that appears to do the job is GIMP, but I can't find an example to use it via its Batch Processing methods for PDFs. Here are the warnings I get from ImageMagick and GhostScript: **** Warning: Tf refers to an unknown resource name: FORMS$.f Assuming it's a font name. **** Warning: Tf refers to an unknown resource name: P06BOB.f Assuming it's a font name. **** Warning: Tf refers to an unknown resource name: UN308E.f Assuming it's a font name. **** Warning: Tf refers to an unknown resource name: P06BOB.f Assuming it's a font name. **** Warning: Tf refers to an unknown resource name: UN308E.f Assuming it's a font name. **** Warning: Tf refers to an unknown resource name: P06BOB.f Assuming it's a font name. **** Warning: Tf refers to an unknown resource name: UN308E.f Assuming it's a font name. **** Warning: Tf refers to an unknown resource name: UN307A.f Assuming it's a font name. **** Warning: Tf refers to an unknown resource name: UN104A.f Assuming it's a font name. **** Warning: Tf refers to an unknown resource name: UN308E.f Assuming it's a font name. **** Warning: Tf refers to an unknown resource name: UN208E.f Assuming it's a font name. **** Warning: Tf refers to an unknown resource name: UN308E.f Assuming it's a font name. **** Warning: Tf refers to an unknown resource name: UN208E.f Assuming it's a font name. **** Warning: Tf refers to an unknown resource name: HE14BP.f Assuming it's a font name. **** Warning: Tf refers to an unknown resource name: UN208E.f Assuming it's a font name. **** Warning: Tf refers to an unknown resource name: UN106E.f Assuming it's a font name. **** Warning: Tf refers to an unknown resource name: UN208E.f Assuming it's a font name. **** Warning: Tf refers to an unknown resource name: UN106E.f Assuming it's a font name. **** Warning: Tf refers to an unknown resource name: UN208E.f Assuming it's a font name. **** Warning: Tf refers to an unknown resource name: HE08BP.f Assuming it's a font name. **** Warning: Tf refers to an unknown resource name: HE11BP.f Assuming it's a font name. **** Warning: Tf refers to an unknown resource name: AR10NP.f Assuming it's a font name. **** Warning: Tf refers to an unknown resource name: UN308E.f Assuming it's a font name. **** Warning: Tf refers to an unknown resource name: JIMP2.l Assuming it's a font name. **** Warning: Tf refers to an unknown resource name: HS11C.l Assuming it's a font name. **** Warning: Tf refers to an unknown resource name: FORMS$.f Assuming it's a font name. **** Warning: Tf refers to an unknown resource name: UN104A.f Assuming it's a font name. **** Warning: Tf refers to an unknown resource name: UN208E.f Assuming it's a font name. **** Warning: Tf refers to an unknown resource name: UN307E.f Assuming it's a font name. **** This file had errors that were repaired or ignored. **** Please notify the author of the software that produced this **** file that it does not conform to Adobe's published PDF **** specification.

  • How to create a splash activity , call a second activity via a button, simple data form 5 fields and 2 buttons

    - by Mike
    New to Android need help with one solid build that I can refer to and study for future projects. The first activity is a background image with a button,when clicked the it takes you to the second activity which is a form with 5 data fields and 2 buttons. One button calls an intent to take a picture within the app and one button that submits the data from the form along with the picture to URL. lastly a third activity that says complete thank you. I can make some of this but don't know how to link button or open and merge camera with the app to be sent as a package of data. I suppose I could also hook into GPS acquire location as well as the camera call?
