• How to recognize the touch of a non regular sprite image ?

  - by srikanth rongali

  I have a sprite and if it is touched the touch should be recognized. I used the coordinates to do so. I took the coordinates (min x, min y, max x , max y)of the sprite image. But The sprite image is not a rectangular shape. So, even if I touch the coordinates outside the sprite and inside the rectangular bounds the sprite is recognized. But for my application I need only the sprite to be recognized. So, I have to take only the coordinates of the sprite, but it is not regular shape. I am using CCSprite in my program. So, what can I do to for only the sprite to be selected ? Which classes should use for this? Thank You.

• Model Binding to a List using non-sequential indexes. Can I access the index later?

  - by Kid A

  I'm following Phil's great tutorial on model binding to a list. I use input names like this: book[5804].title book[5804].author book[1234].title book[1234].author This works well and the data gets back to the model just fine, populating a list of books. What I'm looking for is a way to get access in the model to the index that was used to send the books. I'd like to get that number, "5804." This is because the index is of semantic importance. If I can access it, it saves me from setting another property on the object (book ID). Is there a way to see, either on the FormCollection or on the model after UpdateModel is called, what the index was when it was sent up?

• Setting up a non-emacs Common Lisp Dev Env for web application development?

  - by Ravi S

  I am trying to set up a Common Lisp Dev Env for web application development on my Ubuntu 10.04 LTS 64-bit box and I can't find a single decent guide that is targeted at noobs. The closest I came is with Peter Seibel's Lisp in a box but I detest Emacs with a passion and it seems to have older versions of SBCL and CLISP (which are my preferred CL implementations). I do not want to use any of the commercial implementations. I am looking for a simple setup to write some very basic CRUD apps involving possibly hunchentoot, some framework like weblocks,CL-WHO, CL-SQl, sqlite or some datastores from the nosql family like mongo and couch.. Assuming, I go with either SBCL or CLISP on Linux, what is the best tool to manage packages and libraries? ASDF? I am looking for simplicity and consistency and I don't expect to use a ton of libs...

• Can anyone recommend a source control tutorial for a non-technical user based on TortoiseSVN?

  - by Simon

  Can anyone recommend a source control tutorial for a test engineer based on TortoiseSVN? It needs to cover how to check stuff out in detail; the rest can be a bit sketchy if necessary.

• Are there programming languages taht rely on non-latin alphabets?

  - by Jaxsun

  Every programming language I have ever seen has been based on the Latin alphabet, this is not surprising considering I live in Canada... But it only really makes sense that there would be programming languages based on other alphabets, or else bright computer scientists across the world would have to learn a new alphabet to go on in the field. I know for a fact that people in countries dominated by other alphabets develop languages based off the Latin alphabet (eg. Ruby from Japan), but just how common is it for programming languages to be based off of other alphabets like Arabic, or Cyrillic, or even writing systems which are not alphabetic but rather logographic in nature such as Japanese Kanji? Also are any of these languages in active widespread use, or are they mainly used as teaching tools? This is something that has bugged me since I started programming, and I have never run across someone who could think of a real answer.

• Regular expression for finding non-breaking string names in code and then breaking them up for SQL q

  - by Rob Segal

  I am trying to devlop a regex for finding camel case strings in several code files I am working with so I can break them up into separate words for use in a SQL query. I have strings of the form... EmailAddress FirstName MyNameIs And I want them like this... Email Address First Name My Name Is An example SQL query which I currently have is... select FirstName, MyNameIs from MyTables I need the queries in the form... select FirstName as 'First Name', MyNameIs as 'My Name Is' from MyTables Any time a new capital letter appears that should be a new grouping which I can pick out of the matched string. I currently have the following regex... ([A-Z][a-z]+)+ Which does match the cases I have shown above but when I want to perform a replace I need to define groups. Currently I have tried... (([A-Z])([a-z]+))+ Which sort of works. It will pick out "Address" as the first grouping from "EmailAddress" as opposed to "Email" which is what I was expecting. No doubt there is something I'm misunderstanding here so any help is greatly appreciated.

• What adapter to use for ExpandableListView with non-TextView views?

  - by David

  I have an ExpandableListView in which I'd like to have controls other than TextView. Apparently, SimpleExandableListViewAdapter assumes all the controls are TextViews. A cast exception is generated if they are not. What is the recommended solution? Options I can think of include: - Use some other included adapter. But I can't tell if they all have the same assumption. - Create my own adapter. Is there a doc which describes the contract, ie the sequence of method calls an adapter will encounter? I expected the existing adapters to require the views to conform to some interface to allow any conforming view to be used, rather than hardcode to textview and limit where they can be used.

• How can my CGI program access non-browseable files?

  - by Zerobu

  I was wondering if it was possible to read a text file that was located in a directory called "/home/user/files" I wanted to read it from my cgi-bin which is located in /home/user/cgi-bi/ Below is my code, #!/usr/bin/perl use strict; use CGI; #Virtual Directory #Steffan Harris eval { use constant PASSWORD => 'perl'; use constant UPLOAD_DIR => '/home/sharris2/files'; sub mapToFile { print chdir UPLOAD_DIR; } #This function will list all files in a directory. sub listDirectoryFiles { chdir UPLOAD_DIR; my @files = <*>; mapToFile; print<<LIST; <h2>Current Files</h2> <ul> LIST if(!$files[0]) { print" </ul>\n<em>No files in directory</em>"; } foreach(@files) { print" <li>$_</li>"; } print " </ul>\n"; } #This function generates a 404 Not Found error sub generate404 { print<<RESPONSE; Status: 404 Not Found Content-Type: text/html <html> <head><title>404 Not Found</title></head> <body> <p> <h1>404 - Not Found</h1> </p> The requested URL <b>$ENV{"HTTP_HOST"}$ENV{"REQUEST_URI"}</b> was not found on the server. </body> </html> RESPONSE exit; } #This function checks the path info to see if it matches a file in the UPLOAD_DIR directory, If it does not, then it returns a 404 error sub checkExsistence { if($ENV{"PATH_INFO"}) { chdir UPLOAD_DIR; my @files = <*>; if(!$files[0] and $ENV{"PATH_INFO"} eq "/") { return; } foreach(@files) { if($ENV{"PATH_INFO"} eq "/".$_ || $ENV{"PATH_INFO"} eq "/") { print "yes"; return; } } generate404; } } sub checkPassword { my ($password, $cgi); $cgi = new CGI; $password = $cgi->param('passwd'); unless($password eq PASSWORD) { print<<RESPONSE; Status: 200 OK Content-Type: text/html <html> <head> <title>Incorrect Password</title> </head> <body> <h1>Invalid password entered.</h1> <h3><a href="/~sharris2/cgi-bin/files/">Go Back</a></h3> </body> RESPONSE exit; } } sub upLoadFile { checkPassword; my ($uploadfile, $cgi); $cgi = new CGI; $uploadfile = $cgi->upload('uploadfile'); chdir UPLOAD_DIR; $uploadfile or die "Did not receive a file to upload"; open my $FILE, '>', UPLOAD_DIR."/$uploadfile" or die "$!"; while(<$uploadfile>) { print $FILE $_; } } #Start of main part of program my $cgi = new CGI; if(!$ENV{"PATH_INFO"}) { print $cgi->redirect('/~sharris2/cgi-bin/files/'); } checkExsistence; if($ENV{"REQUEST_METHOD"} eq "POST") { upLoadFile; } print <<"HEADERS"; Status: 200 OK Content-Type: text/html HEADERS print <<"HTML"; <html> <head> <title>Virtual Directory</title> </head> <body> HTML listDirectoryFiles; print<<HTML; <h2>Upload a new file</h2> <form method = "POST" enctype = "multipart/form-data" action = "/~sharris2/cgi-bin/files/" /> File:<input type = "file" name="uploadfile"/> <p>Password: <input type = "password" name ="passwd"/></p> <p><input type = "submit" value= "Submit File" /></p> </form> </body> </html> HTML };

• Is it good practice to generally make heavyweight classes non-copyable?

  - by Emile Cormier

  I have a Shape class containing potentially many vertices, and I was contemplating making copy-constructor/copy-assignment private to prevent accidental needless copying of my heavyweight class (for example, passing by value instead of by reference). To make a copy of Shape, one would have to deliberately call a "clone" or "duplicate" method. Is this good practice? I wonder why STL containers don't use this approach, as I rarely want to pass them by value.

• Why my inner class DO see a NON static variable?

  - by Roman

  Earlier I had a problem when an inner anonymous class did not see a field of the "outer" class. I needed to make a final variable to make it visible to the inner class. Now I have an opposite situation. In the "outer" class "ClientListener" I use an inner class "Thread" and the "Thread" class I have the "run" method and does see the "earPort" from the "outer" class! Why? import java.io.IOException; import java.net.*; import java.io.BufferedReader; import java.io.InputStreamReader; public class ClientsListener { private int earPort; // Constructor. public ClientsListener(int earPort) { this.earPort = earPort; } public void starListening() { Thread inputStreamsGenerator = new Thread() { public void run() { System.out.println(earPort); try { System.out.println(earPort); ServerSocket listeningSocket = new ServerSocket(earPort); Socket serverSideSocket = listeningSocket.accept(); BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(serverSideSocket.getInputStream())); } catch (IOException e) { System.out.println(""); } } }; inputStreamsGenerator.start(); } }

• How do I create a non-editable GXT ComboBox?

  - by VogonPoet

  I'm using GWT/GXT and trying to create a "normal" ComboBox - one that you cannot type in, but you can type a single character and it will automatically go to the first item in the list that starts with that letter. So, I don't want it READONLY, I want it so that you cannot replace the text in it with your own text (can't type characters into it). I cannot figure out how to get ComboBox or SimpleComboBox to do this. I've tried every combination of settings on it to no avail. I did see there is a GXT ListBox, but i need a component that extends from Field. Is there really no way to do this or am I missing something?

• How do I reject if exists? for non-nested attributes?

  - by GoodGets

  Currently my controller lets a user submit muliple "links" at a time. It collects them into an array, creates them for that user, but catches any errors for the User to go back and fix. How can I ignore the creation of any links that already exist for that user? I know that I can use validates_uniqueness_of with a scope for that user, but I'd rather just ignore their creation completely. Here's my controller: @links = params[:links].values.collect{ |link| current_user.links.create(link) }.reject { |p| p.errors.empty? } Each link has a url, so I thought about checking if that link.url already exists for that user, but wasn't really sure how, or where, to do that. Should I tack this onto my controller somehow? Or should it be a new method in the model, like as in a before_validation Callback? (Note: these "links" are not nested, but they do belong_to :user.) So, I'd like to just be able to ignore the creation of these links if possible. Like if a user submits 5 links, but 2 of them already exist for him, then I'd just like for those 2 to be ignored, while the other 3 are created. How should I go about doing this?

• How to add some non standard font to website?

  - by vaske

  Is there any way to add some custom font on website without using images, flash or some other graphics. For example, I was working on some wedding website, and I was found a lot of nice fonts for that subject, but I can't find the right way to add that font on the server, and how to include that font with css into the html. Is this possible to do without graphics?

• R Question. Numeric variable vs. Non-numeric and "names" function

  - by Michael

  > scores=cbind(UNCA.score, A.score, B.score, U.m.A, U.m.B) > names(scores)=c('UNCA.scores', 'A.scores', 'B.scores','UNCA.minus.A', 'UNCA.minus.B') > names(scores) [1] "UNCA.scores" "A.scores" "B.scores" "UNCA.minus.A" "UNCA.minus.B" > summary(UNCA.scores) X6.69230769230769 Min. : 4.154 1st Qu.: 7.333 Median : 8.308 Mean : 8.451 3rd Qu.: 9.538 Max. :12.000 > is.numeric(UNCA.scores) [1] FALSE > is.numeric(scores[,1]) [1] TRUE My question is, what is the difference between UNCA.scores and scores[,1]? UNCA.scores is the first column in the data.frame 'scores', but they are not the same thing, since one is numeric and the other isn't. If UNCA.scores is just a label here how can I make it be equivalent to 'scores[,1]? Thanks!

• Any C/C++ to non-native bytecode compiler/interpreters?

  - by Matt

  As the title indicates, are there any C/C++ bytecode compilers/interpreters? I'm writing an application in an interpreted language that depends on certain libraries that are fully cross-compilable (there are no special flags to indicate code changes during compilation for a certain platform) but are written in C and C++. Rather than shipping n-platform-specific-libs with each platform, it would be nice to ship one set of libs which are interpreted by one platform specific interpreter. Possible and/or available?

• What explains the term orthogonal in a more non-nerd fashion?

  - by dontWatchMyProfile

  For example: Cardinality and optionality are orthogonal properties of a relationship. You can specify that a relationship is optional, even if you have specified upper and/or lower bounds. This means that there do not have to be any objects at the destination, but if there are then the number of objects must lie within the bounds specified. What exactly does "orthogonal" mean? I bet it's just a fancy soundig nerd-style word for something that could be expressed a lot easier to understand for average people ;) From wikipedia: In mathematics, two vectors are orthogonal if they are perpendicular, i.e., they form a right angle. The word comes from the Greek ????? (orthos), meaning "straight", and ????a (gonia), meaning "angle". Anyone?

• Ad hoc network between iPhone and non iPhone devices???

  - by gn-mithun

  Is it possible to set up a ad hoc network between an iPhone and a totally different device like camera,scanner or printer and build a data tunnel between them to exchange data or services. I believe iPhone does not have the provision of creating an ad hoc network. So i am assuming that the other device are the initiator of the ad hoc network. I tried doing the same with a mac book and iPhone and i could surf on the phone after enabling internet sharing. But i wanted to make sure that its possible with other devices as well I believe the upcoming WiFi Direct is a way to do it.

• What was the most refreshingly honest non-technical comment you saw?

  - by DVK

  OK, so we all saw the lists of "funny" or "bad" comments. However, today, when maintaining an old stored procedure, I stumbled upon a comment which I couldn't classify other than "refreshingly brutally honest", left by a previous maintainer around a really freakish (both performance and readability-wise) page-long query: -- Feel free to optimize this if you can understand what it means So, in the first (and hopefully only) poll type question in my history of Stack Overflow, I'd like to hear some other "refreshingly brutally honest" code comments you encountered or written.

• Are there any modern platforms with non-IEEE C/C++ float formats?

  - by Patrick Niedzielski

  Hi all, I am writing a video game, Humm and Strumm, which requires a network component in its game engine. I can deal with differences in endianness easily, but I have hit a wall in attempting to deal with possible float memory formats. I know that modern computers have all a standard integer format, but I have heard that they may not all use the IEEE standard for floating-point integers. Is this true? While certainly I could just output it as a character string into each packet, I would still have to convert to a "well-known format" of each client, regardless of the platform. The standard printf() and atod() would be inadequate. Please note, because this game is a Free/Open Source Software program that will run on GNU/Linux, *BSD, and Microsoft Windows, I cannot use any proprietary solutions, nor any single-platform solutions. Cheers, Patrick

• Why Does Private Access Remain Non-Private in .NET Within a Class?

  - by AMissico

  While cleaning some code today written by someone else, I changed the access modifier from Public to Private on a class variable/member/field. I expected a long list of compiler errors that I use to "refactor/rework/review" the code that used this variable. Imagine my surprise when I didn't get any errors. After reviewing, it turns out that another instance of the Class can access the private members of another instance declared within the Class. Totally unexcepted. Is this normal? I been coding in .NET since the beginning and never ran into this issue, nor read about it. I may have stumbled onto it before, but only "vaguely noticed" and move on. Can anyone explain this behavoir to me? Am I doing something wrong? I found this behavior in both C# and VB.NET. The code seems to take advantage of the ability to access private variables. Sincerely, Totally Confused Class Foo Private _int As Integer Private _foo As Foo Private _jack As Jack Private _fred As Fred Public Sub SetPrivate() _foo = New Foo _foo._int = 3 'TOTALLY UNEXPECTED _jack = New Jack '_jack._int = 3 'expected compile error because Foo doesn't know Jack _fred = New Fred '_fred._int = 3 'expected compile error because Fred hides from Foo End Sub Private Class Fred Private _int As Integer End Class End Class Class Jack Private _int As Integer End Class
