i'd able see registry keys used for. book on registry fine well. info on windows vista changes great! oh, how wish there single site registry collectively documented write values there! keep in mind, app can create own set of registry keys , values, it's not ms necessary such effort. though key player! in meantime, there 2 ms sites use startng points when need know particular key/value pair do: windows 2003 registry reference: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc778196.aspx windows 2000 registry reference: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc974061.aspx keep in mind since windows evolving thing, information older versions can helpful. note w2003 bears lot of resemblance xp. sadly, have not found link vista/windows 2008 registries similar above. when need know what's specific key, , it's not found in 1 of above links, try search of key's full path @ http://support.microsoft.com

the following bit of code catches eos exception using (var reader = new binaryreader(httprequestbodystream)) { try { while (true) { bodybytelist.add(reader.readbyte()); } } catch (endofstreamexception) { } } so why still receive first-chance exceptions in console? a first chance exception of type 'system.io.endofstreamexception' occurred in mscorlib.dll is there way hide these first chance exception messages? the point of "first-chance" exceptions you're seeing them pre-handler can stop on them during debugging @ point of throwing. "second-chance" exception 1 has no appropriate handler. want catch "first-chance" exceptions because it's important see what's happening when it's being thrown, if catching it. there's nothing concerned with. normal behavior.

in ruby on rails 3 can use activemailer sending emails. also can install mail gem. i wonder difference is? does mail gem provide things activemailer doesnt? should install gem? thanks the relationship between 2 mail gem how rails 3 implements mail ( replacing previous tmail approach in earlier versions). in other words, actionmailer rails wrapper around mail gem's usage within framework. from post gem's author: the prior versions of actionmailer used tmail email delivery needs, , because functionality missing in tmail (such auto quoting , encoding of fields, handling multipart emails smoothly, etc.), actionmailer had grown set of complex , fragile methods shoehorn in missing functionality. that post here . , screencast might helpful if haven't seen already.

what concise , efficient way find out if javascript array contains object? this way know it: function contains(a, obj) { (var = 0; < a.length; i++) { if (a[i] === obj) { return true; } } return false; } is there better , more concise way accomplish this? this closely related stack overflow question best way find item in javascript array? addresses finding objects in array using indexof . current browsers have array#includes , exactly that, is supported , , has polyfill older browsers. you can use array#indexof , less direct, doesn't require polyfills out of date browsers. jquery offers $.inarray , functionally equivalent array#indexof . underscore.js , javascript utility library, offers _.contains(list, value) , alias _.include(list, value) , both of use indexof internally if passed javascript array. some other frameworks offer similar methods: dojo toolkit: dojo.indexof(array, value, [fromindex, findlas...

we can see in directory files ordered name in windows explorer. if try same thing in ms-dos orders name differently - correctly : dir *.jpg /on /b cubierta.jpg pag00.jpg pag06.jpg pag08.jpg pag09.jpg pag100.jpg pag101.jpg pag102.jpg pag103.jpg pag104.jpg pag105.jpg pag106.jpg pag107.jpg pag108.jpg pag109.jpg pag11.jpg, etc, etc, etc, ... is there way msdos order name reads numbers human do? thanks! your best option (if possible) add enough leading zeros (two, in case) smaller numbers sort come out expected.

i have solution in visual studio 2008 has multiple projects. 1 of projects wcf project. want debug other projects, when press f5, visual studio has wcfsvchost.exe launched host wcf project not "startup project". currently, every time debugging other projects, have unload wcf project prevent annoying wcfsvchost.exe host pop up. however, not convenient. know better idea prevent wcf project hosted in debugging mode? go wcf options section in property page of wcf project , unselect check box says 'start wcf service host when debugging project in same solution'.

is possible give name boost::thread debuggers tables , crash logs can more readable? how? you need access underlying thread primitive , assign name in system dependent manner. debugging , crash logs inherently system dependent , boost::thread more non-system-dependency, i.e. portability. it seems ( http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_43_0/doc/html/thread.html ) there no documented way access underlying system resources boost thread. (but have never used myself may miss something.) edit: (as david writes in comment) http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_43_0/doc/html/thread/thread_management.html#thread.thread_management.thread.nativehandle

i have product table this: product name , affiliate id , productcode a, 1, 1 b, 1, 2 c, 1, 3 d, 1, 5 e, 1, 7 f, 2, 4 g, 2, 6 i want return first 4 products each affiliate id. 'productcode' column signifies order in products added, can use column sort results. don't know how return first 4 results each affiliate id? if use 'group' function returns 1 row of each affiliate id. look example in link: within-group quotas (top n per group) it need. select affiliateid, productcode ( select affiliateid, productcode, if( @prev <> id @rownum := 1, @rownum := @rownum+1 ) rank, @prev := id table join (select @rownum := null, @prev := 0) r order affiliateid, productcode ) tmp tmp.rank <= 4 order affiliateid, productcode;

we moving mercurial subversion. subversion, have http://trunk.myproduct.com testing purposes. wondering standard name trunk-like site mercurial. 'trunk' seems subversion term. http://default.myproduct.com obvious name, people use? looking standard convention. i'm not sure there convention. people using mercurial have more repositories. i've seen "central" repository named bits.example.com, example.com/hg, example.com/branches/1.x, , on. name whatever - make sure have standard convention changes go repository, , when.

i'm searching configuration framework handles key/values pairs based on conditions. language , storage type doesn't matter. example background color application xyz: application has background color "red". on monday background color should green. the background color user xyz on monday should orange. the developer ask "application.background.color" , should return correct value based on given conditions. in java, have @ commons configuration. need extend somewhat, should able use existing frameworks variable expansion, providing can define available context elements in advance.

we have client (who has client, has client) driving mad change requests code base (in php). our first response work in main trunk in svn, client comes , requests change needs pushed live servers asap. on other hand, other changes reduced in priority suddenly, came grouped other changes (seemingly). we thinking of using branch every change request. mad? other solutions might work? thanks! edit : hard question choose correct answer for. great answers. edit : know best answer chose not particularly popular. wanted find technical solution problem. think if client wants software features can deployed in modular fashion... problem should not solved in our use of version control system. have designed software. edit : it's month later , coworker/client has convinced me multiple branches way go. not due client's insanity, based on our need able determine if feature "ready go" or "needs more work" or whatever. don't have svn me, merge using advice ...

i develop applications pocketpc platform (.net compact framework 2.0 , higher), , 1 of problems run in drop-down width combobox controls not wide enough show long string values. i've run across p/invoke methods widen dropdown width, i'd have smartphone-style behavior comboboxes. this, mean initial view of spin control (left/right arrows scroll through option list), , if click action button takes full-screen rendition of options easier read. i think create custom user control simulate behavior on pocketpc, know if it's possible @ actual smartphone functionality , use that. faster tap existing functionality if possible. i don't think possible, because behavior in combobox how pocketpc smartphone os handles comboboxes. if compile smartphone app combobox , run in regular pocketpc, combobox won't behave way (i think).

there resize dom event, generic elements can't find event fired when position of element changed. i'd have event fired whenever geometry of element changed. can mozilla specific, because write firefox add-on. edit: or there way pin element 1 works, no matter crazy stylesheets might used (so 1 on top of other)? edit: or there way pin element 1 works, no matter crazy stylesheets might used (so 1 on top of other)? you can set bunch of !important rules, take priority (unless else uses !important , rare): .pinned { position : absolute !important; top : 0px !important; right : 0px !important; bottom : 0px !important; left : 0px !important; }
