<p>I'm teaching myself Python and my most recent lesson was that <a href="http://dirtsimple.org/2004/12/python-is-not-java.html" rel="noreferrer">Python is not Java</a>, and so I've just spent a while turning all my Class methods into functions.</p> <p>I now realise that I don't need to use Class methods for what I would done with <code>static</code> methods in Java, but now I'm not sure when I would use them. All the advice I can find about Python Class methods is along the lines of newbies like me should steer clear of them, and the standard documentation is at its most opaque when discussing them.</p> <p>Does anyone have a good example of using a Class method in Python or at least can someone tell me when Class methods can be sensibly used?</p>

<p>I'm currently working on a ray-tracer in C# as a hobby project. I'm trying to achieve a decent rendering speed by implementing some tricks from a c++ implementation and have run into a spot of trouble.</p> <p>The objects in the scenes which the ray-tracer renders are stored in a KdTree structure and the tree's nodes are, in turn, stored in an array. The optimization I'm having problems with is while trying to fit as many tree nodes as possible into a cache line. One means of doing this is for nodes to contain a pointer to the left child node only. It is then implicit that the right child follows directly after the left one in the array.</p> <p>The nodes are structs and during tree construction they are succesfully put into the array by a static memory manager class. When I begin to traverse the tree it, at first, seems to work just fine. Then at a point early in the rendering (about the same place each time), the left child pointer of the root node is suddenly pointing at a null pointer. I have come to the conclusion that the garbage collecter has moved the structs as the array lies on the heap.</p> <p>I've tried several things to pin the addresses in memory but none of them seems to last for the entire application lifetime as I need. The 'fixed' keyword only seems to help during single method calls and declaring 'fixed' arrays can only be done on simple types which a node isn't. Is there a good way to do this or am I just too far down the path of stuff C# wasn't meant for.</p> <p>Btw, changing to c++, while perhaps the better choice for a high performance program, is not an option.</p>

I'd also like to be able to search the database by phone number, email, etc. </p> <p>What do you think is the best way to store this data? Since users could have multiple addresses, etc complete normalization would be a mess. I'm thinking about using XML, but I'm not familiar with querying XML db fields.

<p>Using MVC out of the box I found the generated URLs can be misleading and I wanted to know if this can be fixed or if my approach/understanding is wrong.</p> <p>Suppose I have a CreateEgg page, which has a form on it, and once the form is filled in and submitted the user is taken to a ListEggs page with the new egg in it.</p> <p>So my egg controller will look some thing like this:</p> <pre><code>public class EggController : Controller { public void Add() { //do stuff RenderView("CreateEgg", viewData); } public void Create() { //do stuff RenderView("ListEggs", viewData); } } </code></pre> <p>So my first page will have a url of something like <a href="http://localhost/egg/add" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://localhost/egg/add</a> and the form on the page will have an action of:</p> <pre><code>using (Html.Form&lt;EggController&gt;(c =&gt; c.Create()) </code></pre> <p>Meaning the second page will have a url of <a href="http://localhost/Egg/Create" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://localhost/Egg/Create</a>, to me this is misleading, the action should be called Create, because im creating the egg, but a list view is being displayed so the url of <a href="http://localhost/Egg/List" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://localhost/Egg/List</a> would make more scene. How do I achieve this without making my view or action names misleading?</p>

<p>Say you want a simple maze on an N by M grid, with one path through, and a good number of dead ends, but that looks "right" (i.e. like someone made it by hand without too many little tiny dead ends and all that). Is there a known way to do this?</p>

<p>I have a function where I need to do something to a string. I need the function to return a boolean indicating whether or not the operation succeeded, and I also need to return the modified string. </p> <p>In C#, I would use an out parameter for the string, but there is no equivalent in Python. I'm still very new to Python and the only thing I can think of is to return a tuple with the boolean and modified string.</p> <p>Related question: <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/61605/is-it-pythonic-for-a-function-to-return-multiple-values">Is it pythonic for a function to return multiple values?</a></p>

<p>How are people unit testing their business applications? I've seen a lot of examples of unit testing with "simple to test" examples. Ex. a calculator. How are people unit testing data-heavy applications? How are you putting together your sample data? In many cases, data for one test may not work at all for another test which makes it hard to just have one test database?</p> <p>Testing the data access portion of the code is fairly straightforward. It's testing out all the methods that work against the data that seem to be hard to test. For example, imagine a posting process where there is heavy data access to determine what is posted, numbers are adjusted, etc. There are a number of interim steps that occur (and need to be tested) along with tests afterwards that ensure the posting was successful. Some of those steps may actually be stored procedures.</p> <p>In the past I've tried inserting the test data in a test database, then running the test, but honestly it's pretty painful to write this kind of code (and error prone). I've also tried just building a test database up front and rolling back the changes. That works OK but in a number of places you can't easily do this either (and many people would say that's integration testing; so be it, I still need to be able to test this somehow).</p> <p>If the answer is that there isn't a nice way of handling this and it currently just sort of sucks, that would be useful to know as well.</p> <p>Any thoughts, ideas, suggestions, or tips are appreciated.</p>

<p>I am attempting to set an asp.net textbox to a SQL 2005 money data type field, the initial result displayed to the user is 40.0000 instead of 40.00. In my asp.net textbox control I would like to only display the first 2 numbers after the decimal point e.g. 40.00</p> <p>What would be the best way to do this? My code is below:</p> <pre><code>this.txtPayment.Text = dr["Payment"].ToString(); </code></pre>

<p>I have a asp.net 2.0 web site with numerous asp:DropDownList controls. The DropDownList control contains the standard info city, state, county etc... info. In addition to the standard codes the site also has custom codes that the users can configure themselves. For example a animal dropdown may contain the values Dog, Cat, Fish, ect...</p> <p>I am popluating the DropDownList from a SQL 2005 table that I created e.g. tblCodes</p> <p>Everything works great and users are able to add orders using the numerous DropDownList controls to choose items from the list.</p> <p>The problem occurrs if a user wants to change one of their custom dropdowns. For example a user would like to change the verbage on a animal type control from Dog to K9. This is where the problem starts.</p> <p>For all new orders the drop down works fine. When the user retrieved an old order I get the following error in the C# codebehind "'DropDownList1' has a SelectedValue which is invalid because it does not exist in the list of items."</p> <p>What's happening is the old order has a database field value of Dog and the DropDownList no longer has Dog in its list since the user changed it to K9.</p> <p>Any ideas on a workaround?<br> Is there a way to make the asp:DropDownList accept items not seeded in its list? Is there another control I could use?</p>

<p>What tools are there available for static analysis against C# code? I know about FxCop and StyleCop. Are there others? I've run across NStatic before but it's been in development for what seems like forever - it's looking pretty slick from what little I've seen of it, so it would be nice if it would ever see the light of day. </p> <p>Along these same lines (this is primarily my interest for static analysis), tools for testing code for multithreading issues (deadlocks, race conditions, etc.) also seem a bit scarce. Typemock Racer just popped up so I'll be looking at that. Anything beyond this?</p> <p>Real-life opinions about tools you've used are appreciated.</p>

<p>I'm not sure I'm using all the correct terminology here so be forgiving.</p> <p>I just put up a site with a contact form that sends an email using the PHP mail() function. Simple enough. However the live site doesn't actually send the email, the test site does. So it's not my code. </p> <p>It's a shared host and we have another site that has the same function that works perfectly, so it's not the server. </p> <p>The only difference between the two is that the site that doesn't work just has the name server pointing to us and so the MX record never touches our server. </p> <p>So my question is, could some one please confirm that the mail() function wont work if we don't have the MX record pointing to our server.

<p>Ok, so, my visual studio is broken. I say this NOT prematurely, as it was my first response to see where I had messed up in my code. When I add controls to the page I can't reference all of them in the code behind. Some of them I can, it seems that the first few I put on a page work, then it just stops. </p> <p>I first thought it may be the type of control as initially I was trying to reference a repeater inside an update panel. I know I am correctly referencing the code behind in my aspx page. But just in case it was a screw up on my part I started to recreate the page from scratch and this time got a few more controls down before VS stopped recognizing my controls.</p> <p>After creating my page twice and getting stuck I thought maybe it was still the type of controls. I created a new page and just threw some labels on it. No dice, build fails when referencing the control from the code behind. </p> <p>In a possibly unrelated note when I switch to the dreaded "design" mode of the aspx pages VS 2008 errors out and restarts. </p> <p>I have already put a trouble ticket in to Microsoft. I uninstalled all add-ins, I reinstalled visual studio. </p> <p>Anyone that wants to see my code just ask, but I am using the straight WYSIWYG visual studio "new aspx page" nothing fancy.</p> <p>I doubt anyone has run into this, but have you? </p> <p>Has anyone had success trouble shooting these things with Microsoft? Any way to expedite this ticket without paying??? I have been talking to a rep from Microsoft for days with no luck yet and I am dead in the water. </p> <hr> <p><strong>Jon Limjap:</strong> I edited the title to both make it clear and descriptive <em>and</em> make sure that nobody sees it as offensive.

<p>Feel free to edit the title if you know how to formulate the question better. (Tagging is a problem as well.) The problem may be too difficult in this general form, so let us consider a concrete example.</p> <p>You get a screenful of stackoverflow questions by requesting <code>/questions ?sort=newest</code> page. Next page link leads to <code>/questions?page=2 &amp;sort=newest</code>. I suppose that at server side, the request is translated into an SQL query with LIMIT clause. Problem with this approach is, that if new question were added while user browses first page, his second page will start with some questions he already saw. (If he has 10 question per page, and 10 new questions happened to be added, he’ll get exactly the same content second time!)</p> <p>Is there an elegant way to solve this common problem? I realize that it is not that big a problem, at least not for stackoverflow, but still.</p> <p>The best idea I have (apart from storing request history per client) is to use <code>/questions?answer_id=NNN</code> format. Server returns a page that starts with the requested answer, and puts the id of the first answer on the next page into next page link. There must be a way to write SQL for that, right? </p> <p>Is it how it usually done? Or there is a better way?</p>

<p>I'm trying to pick up ruby by porting a medium-sized (non-OO) perl program. One of my personal idioms is to set options like this:</p> <pre><code>use Getopt::Std; our $opt_v; # be verbose getopts('v'); # and later ... $opt_v &amp;&amp; print "something interesting\n"; </code></pre> <p>In perl, I kind of grit my teeth and let $opt_v be (effectively) a global. </p> <p>In ruby,the more-or-less exact equivalent would be </p> <pre><code>require 'optparse' opts.on("-v", "--[no-]verbose", TrueClass, "Run verbosely") { |$opt_verbose| } opts.parse! end </code></pre> <p>where $opt_verbose is a global that classes could access. Having classes know about global flags like that seems ... er ... wrong. What's the OO-idiomatic way of doing this?</p> <ul> <li>Let the main routine take care of all option-related stuff and have the classes just return things to it that it decides how to deal with?</li> <li>Have classes implement optional behaviour (e.g., know how to be verbose) and set a mode via an attr_writer sort of thing?</li> </ul> <p><em>updated:</em> Thanks for the answers suggesting optparse, but I should have been clearer that it's not <em>how</em> to process command-line options I'm asking about, but more the relationship between command-line options that effectively set a global program state and classes that should ideally be independent of that sort of thing.</p>

<p>Consider the following setup: A windows PC with a LAN interface and a WiFi interface (the standard for any new laptop). Each of the interfaces might be connected or disconnected from a network. I need a way to determine which one of the adapters is the one connected to the internet - specifically, in case they are both connected to different networks, one with connection to the internet and one without.</p> <p>My current solution involves using IPHelper's "<a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa365920(VS.85).aspx" rel="noreferrer">GetBestInterface</a>" function and supplying it with the IP address "0.0.0.0".</p> <p>Do you have any other solutions you might suggest to this problem?</p> <p>Following some of the answers, let me elaborate:</p> <ul> <li>I need this because I have a product that has to choose which adapter to bind to. I have no way of controlling the setup of the network or the host where the product will run and so I need a solution that is as robust as possible, with as few assumptions as possible.</li> <li>I need to do this in code, since this is part of a product.</li> </ul> <p>@Chris Upchurch: This makes me dependent on google.com being up (usually not a problem) and on any personal firewall that might be installed to allow pinging.</p> <p>@Till: Like Steve Moon said, relying on the adapter's address is kind of risky because you make a lot of assumptions on the internal network setup.</p> <p>@Steve Moon: Looking at the routing table sounds like a good idea, but instead of applying the routing logic myself, I am trying to use "GetBestInterface" as described above. I believe what it should do is exactly what you outlined in your answer, but I am not really sure. The reason I'm reluctant to implement my own "routing logic" is that there's a better chance that I'll get it wrong than if I use a library/API written and tested by more "hard-core" network people.</p>

<p>I have the following tables in my database that have a many-to-many relationship, which is expressed by a connecting table that has foreign keys to the primary keys of each of the main tables:</p> <ul> <li>Widget: WidgetID (PK), Title, Price </li> <li>User: UserID (PK), FirstName, LastName</li> </ul> <p>Assume that each User-Widget combination is unique. I can see two options for how to structure the connecting table that defines the data relationship:</p> <ol> <li>UserWidgets1: UserWidgetID (PK), WidgetID (FK), UserID (FK) </li> <li>UserWidgets2: WidgetID (PK, FK), UserID (PK, FK)</li> </ol> <p>Option 1 has a single column for the Primary Key. However, this seems unnecessary since the only data being stored in the table is the relationship between the two primary tables, and this relationship itself can form a unique key. Thus leading to option 2, which has a two-column primary key, but loses the one-column unique identifier that option 1 has. I could also optionally add a two-column unique index (WidgetID, UserID) to the first table.</p> <p>Is there any real difference between the two performance-wise, or any reason to prefer one approach over the other for structuring the UserWidgets many-to-many table?</p>

<p>I have a rails application where each user has a separate database. (taking Joel Spolsky's advice on this). I want to run DB migrations from the rails application to create a new database and tables for this user. </p> <p>What is the easiest way to do this? </p> <p>Maybe the db migration is not the best for this type of thing. Thanks!</p> <hr> <p>It would be nice if it could be a completely automated process. The following process would be ideal.</p> <ol> <li>A user signs up on our site to use this web app</li> <li>Migrations are run to create this users database and get tables setup correctly</li> </ol> <p>Is there a way of calling a rake task from a ruby application?</p>

<p>If I've got a table containing Field1 and Field2 can I generate a new field in the select statement? For example, a normal query would be:</p> <pre><code>SELECT Field1, Field2 FROM Table </code></pre> <p>And I want to also create Field3 and have that returned in the resultset... something along the lines of this would be ideal:</p> <pre><code>SELECT Field1, Field2, Field3 = 'Value' FROM Table </code></pre> <p>Is this possible at all?</p>

<p>Here's a basic regex technique that I've never managed to remember. Let's say I'm using a fairly generic regex implementation (e.g., grep or grep -E). If I were to do a list of files and match any that end in either <code>.sty</code> or <code>.cls</code>, how would I do that?</p>

<p>I'm an Information Architect and JavaScript developer by trade nowadays, but recently I've been getting back into back-end coding again. And, whilst trying to get an HTML prototype integrated and working with our C#-based CMS, I've come to blows with our programmers over the HTML ID attributes being arbitrarily rewritten by .NET for form elements.</p> <p>I can understand the code-behind reasoning for .NET changing IDs, but the fact you can no longer use IDs when trying to develop e.g. jQuery enhanced interfaces is causing some friction. What can I do to work around this?</p> <p>I've tried using the class attribute instead, but that's really crappy, not what it's meant for and doesn't get around that problem of .NET effectively changing rendered source on the fly. It also means that CSS is less useful now and less efficient to create and maintain.</p> <p>Any tips or advice greatly appreciated--anything for a few less sleepless nights...</p>

<p>Whenever I use my MacBook away from my desk and later plug it into an external display (as primary), I get into the state of having windows deposited in both the notebook monitor and the external one.</p> <p>To move all windows to a single screen, my current solution is to "Turn on mirroring" in the display preferences and then turn it off again. This is rather tedious, though.

(I.e., with windows on both screens, running the script moves not a single one of them, and it does not return any errors.)

<p>I've written a Python package that includes a bsddb database of pre-computed values for one of the more time-consuming computations. For simplicity, my setup script installs the database file in the same directory as the code which accesses the database (on Unix, something like /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/mypackage/).</p> <p>How do I store the final location of the database file so my code can access it? Right now, I'm using a hack based on the <code>__file__</code> variable in the module which accesses the database:</p> <pre> dbname = os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), "database.dat") </pre> <p>It works, but it seems... hackish. Is there a better way to do this? I'd like to have the setup script just grab the final installation location from the distutils module and stuff it into a "dbconfig.py" file that gets installed alongside the code that accesses the database.</p>

<p>What would be the best way to draw a simple animation just before showing a modal <a href="https://docs.oracle.com/javase/9/docs/api/javax/swing/JDialog.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">JDialog</a>? (i.e. expanding borders from the mouse click point to the dialog location). I thought it would be possible to draw on the glasspane of the parent frame on the <code>setVisible</code> method of the dialog.</p> <p>However, since the JDialog is modal to the parent, I couldn't find a way to pump drawing events into <a href="https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/uiswing/concurrency/dispatch.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">EDT</a> before the JDialog becomes visible, since the current event on the EDT has not been completed yet.</p>

<p>I'm working on porting a Visual C++ application to GCC (should build on MingW and Linux).</p> <p>The existing code uses <code>__try { ... } __except(1) { ... }</code> blocks in a few places so that almost nothing (short of maybe out of memory type errors?) would make the program exit without doing some minimal logging.</p> <p>What are the options for doing something similar with GCC?</p> <p>Edit: Thanks for the pointer to /EH options in Visual Studio, what I need now is some examples on how to handle signals on Linux. I've found <a href="http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-help/2002-04/msg00003.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">this message</a> from 2002.</p> <p>What other signals besides <code>SIGFPE</code> and <code>SIGSEVG</code> should I watch out for? (Mostly care about ones that might be raised from <em>me</em> doing something wrong)</p> <p><strong>Bounty Information</strong>: I want my application to be able to self-log as many error conditions as possible before it exits. </p> <p>What signals might I get and which would generally be impossible to log an error message after? (Out of memory, what else?)</p> <p>How can I handle exceptions and (most importantly) signals in a portable way that the code at least works the same on Linux and MingW. #ifdef is OK.</p> <p>The reason I don't just have a wrapper process that logs the failure is that for performance reasons I save writing some data to disk till the last minute, so if something goes wrong I want to make all possible attempts to write the data out before exiting.</p>

<p>We have a requirement in project to store all the revisions(Change History) for the entities in the database. Currently we have 2 designed proposals for this:</p> <p>e.g. for "Employee" Entity</p> <p><strong>Design 1:</strong></p> <pre><code>-- Holds Employee Entity "Employees (EmployeeId, FirstName, LastName, DepartmentId, .., ..)" -- Holds the Employee Revisions in Xml. The RevisionXML will contain -- all data of that particular EmployeeId "EmployeeHistories (EmployeeId, DateModified, RevisionXML)" </code></pre> <p><strong>Design 2:</strong></p> <pre><code>-- Holds Employee Entity "Employees (EmployeeId, FirstName, LastName, DepartmentId, .., ..)" -- In this approach we have basically duplicated all the fields on Employees -- in the EmployeeHistories and storing the revision data. "EmployeeHistories (EmployeeId, RevisionId, DateModified, FirstName, LastName, DepartmentId, .., ..)" </code></pre> <p>Is there any other way of doing this thing? </p> <p>The problem with the "Design 1" is that we have to parse XML each time when you need to access data. This will slow the process and also add some limitations like we cannot add joins on the revisions data fields.</p> <p>And the problem with the "Design 2" is that we have to duplicate each and every field on all entities (We have around 70-80 entities for which we want to maintain revisions).</p>

<p>I have inherited a client site which crashes every 3 or 4 days. It is built using the zend-framework with which I have no knowledge.</p> <p>The following code:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?php // Make sure classes are in the include path. ini_set('include_path', ini_get('include_path') . PATH_SEPARATOR . 'lib' . PATH_SEPARATOR . 'app' . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . 'classes'); // Use autoload so include or require statements are not needed. require_once 'Zend/Loader.php'; Zend_Loader::registerAutoload(); // Run the application. App_Main::run('production'); </code></pre> <p>Is causing the following error:</p> <pre> [Tue Sep 02 12:58:45 2008] [error] [client 78.***.***.32] PHP Warning: require_once(Zend/Loader.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /srv/www/vhosts/example.co.uk/httpdocs/bootstrap.php on line 6 [Tue Sep 02 12:58:45 2008] [error] [client 78.***.***.32] PHP Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required 'Zend/Loader.php' (include_path='.:.:/usr/share/php5:/usr/share/php5/PEAR') in /srv/www/vhosts/example.co.uk/httpdocs/bootstrap.php on line 6 </pre> <p>I don't even know where to begin trying to fix this. My level of knowledge of PHP is intermediate but like I said, I have no experience with Zend. Also, contacting the original developer is not an option.</p> <p>The interesting thing is that even though the code is run every time a page of the site is hit the error is only happening every now and then.</p> <p>I believe it must be something to do with the include_path but I am not sure.</p>

<p>Typically I develop my websites on trunk, then merge changes to a testing branch where they are put on a 'beta' website, and then finally they are merged onto a live branch and put onto the live website.</p> <p>With a Facebook application things are a bit tricky. As you can't view a Facebook application through a normal web browser (it has to go through the Facebook servers) you can't easily give each developer their own version of the website to work with and test.</p> <p>I have not come across anything about the best way to develop and test a Facebook application while continuing to have a stable live website that users can use. My question is this, what is the best practice for organising the development and testing of a Facebook application?</p>

<p>Can anyone (maybe an XSL-fan?) help me find any advantages with handling presentation of data on a web-page with XSL over ASP.NET MVC?</p> <p>The two alternatives are:</p> <ol> <li><p><strong>ASP.NET (MVC/WebForms) with XSL</strong><br/> Getting the data from the database and transforming it to XML which is then displayed on the different pages with XSL-templates.</p></li> <li><p><strong>ASP.NET MVC</strong><br /> Getting the data from the database as C# objects (or LinqToSql/EF-objects) and displaying it with inline-code on MVC-pages.</p></li> </ol> <p>The main benefit of XSL has been consistent display of data on many different pages, like WebControls. So, correct me if I'm wrong, ASP.NET MVC can be used the same way, but with strongly typed objects. Please help me see if there are any benefits to XSL.</p>

<p>I have a struts-based webapp, and I would like the default "welcome" page to be an action. The only solutions I have found to this seem to be variations on making the welcome page a JSP that contains a redirect to the action. For example, in <code>web.xml</code>:</p> <pre><code>&lt;welcome-file-list&gt; &lt;welcome-file&gt;index.jsp&lt;/welcome-file&gt; &lt;/welcome-file-list&gt; </code></pre> <p>and in <code>index.jsp</code>:</p> <pre><code>&lt;% response.sendRedirect("/myproject/MyAction.action"); %&gt; </code></pre> <p>Surely there's a better way!</p>

<p>I need to modify the MBR of Windows, and I would really like to do this from Windows.</p> <p>Here are my questions. I know that I can get a handle on a physical device with a call to CreateFile. Will the MBR always be on \\.\PHYSICALDRIVE0? Also, I'm still learning the Windows API to read directly from the disk. Is readabsolutesectors and writeabsolutesectdors the two functions I'm going to need to use to read/write to the disk sectors which contain the MBR?</p> <p>Edit from from what I've learned on my own. The MBR will not always be on \\.\PHYSICALDRIVE0. Also, you can write to the bootsector (at least as Administrator on XP) by call CreateFile with the device name of the drive that contains the MBR. Also, you can write to this drive by simply calling WriteFile and passing the handle of the device created by calling CreateFile.</p> <p>Edit to address Joel Coehoorn. I need to edit the MBR because I'm working on a project that needs to modify hardware registers after POST in BIOS, but before Windows will be allowed to boot. Our plan is to make these changes by modifying the bootloader to execute our code before Windows boots up. </p> <p>Edit for Cd-MaN. Thanks for the info. There isn't anything in your answer, though, that I didn't know and your answer doesn't address my question. The registry in particular absolutely will not do what we need for multiple reasons. The big reason being that Windows is the highest layer among multiple software layers that will be running with our product. These changes need to occur even before the lower levels run, and so the registry won't work. </p> <p>P.S. for Cd-MaN. As I understand it, the information you give isn't quite correct. For Vista, I think you can write to a volume if the sectors being written to are boot sectors.

<p>I have a fairly small MySQL database (a Textpattern install) on a server that I do not have SSH access to (I have FTP access only). I need to regularly download the live database to my local dev server on demand; i.e., I would like to either run a script and/or have a cron job running. What are some good ways of doing this?</p> <p>Some points to note:</p> <ul> <li>Live server is running Linux, Apache 2.2, PHP 5.2 and MySQL 4.1</li> <li>Local server is running the same (so using PHP is an option), but the OS is Windows</li> <li>Local server has Ruby on it (so using Ruby is a valid option)</li> <li>The live MySQL db <em>can</em> accept remote connections from different IPs</li> <li>I cannot enable replication on the remote server</li> </ul> <p><strong><em>Update:</em></strong> I've accepted BlaM's answer; it is beautifully simple. Can't believe I didn't think of that. There was one problem, though: I wanted to automate the process, but the proposed solution prompts the user for a password. Here is a slightly modified version of the mysqldump command that passes in the password:</p> <p><code>mysqldump -u USER --password=MYPASSWORD DATABASE_TO_DUMP -h HOST > backup.sql</code></p>

<p>Maybe I just don't know .NET well enough yet, but I have yet to see a satisfactory way to implement this simple VB6 code easily in .NET (assume this code is on a form with N CommandButtons in array Command1() and N TextBoxes in array Text1()):</p> <pre><code>Private Sub Command1_Click(Index As Integer) Text1(Index).Text = Timer End Sub </code></pre> <p>I know it's not very useful code, but it demonstrates the ease with which control arrays can be used in VB6. What is the simplest equivalent in C# or VB.NET?</p>

<p>A friend of mine is now building a web application with J2EE and Struts, and it's going to be prepared to display pages in several languages.</p> <p>I was told that the best way to support a multi-language site is to use a properties file where you store all the strings of your pages, something like:</p> <pre><code>welcome.english = "Welcome!" welcome.spanish = "¡Bienvenido!" ... </code></pre> <p>This solution is ok, but what happens if your site displays news or something like that (a blog)? I mean, content that is not static, that is updated often... The people that keep the site have to write every new entry in each supported language, and store each version of the entry in the database. The application loads only the entries in the user's chosen language.</p> <p>How do you design the database to support this kind of implementation?</p> <p>Thanks.</p>
