i have function named _push can handle different parameters, including tuples, , supposed return number of pushed elements. for example, _push(5) should push '5' on stack (the stack of lua ) , return 1 (because 1 value pushed), while _push(std::make_tuple(5, "hello")) should push '5' , 'hello' , return 2. i can't replace _push(5, "hello") because use _push(foo()) , want allow foo() return tuple. anyway can't manage make work tuples: template<typename... args, int n = sizeof...(args)> int _push(const std::tuple<args...>& t, typename std::enable_if<(n >= 1)>::type* = nullptr) { return _push<args...,n-1>(t) + _push(std::get<n-1>(t)); } template<typename... args, int n = sizeof...(args)> int _push(const std::tuple<args...>& t, typename std::enable_if<(n == 0)>::type* = nullptr) { return 0; } let's want push tuple<int,bool> . how expect work: _pu...

how can have sql repeat set-based operation arbitrary number of times without looping? how can have sql perform operation against range of numbers? i'm looking way set-based loop. know can create small table integers in it, 1 1000 , use range operations within range. for example, if had table make select find sum of numbers 100-200 this: select sum(n) numbers n between 100 , 200 any ideas? i'm kinda looking works t-sql platform okay. [edit] have own solution using sql clr works great ms sql 2005 or 2008. see below. i think short answer question use clauses generate own. unfortunately, big names in databases don't have built-in queryable number-range pseudo-tables. or, more generally, easy pure-sql data generation features. personally, think huge failing, because if did possible move lot of code locked in procedural scripts (t-sql, pl/sql, etc.) pure-sql, has number of benefits performance , code complexity. so anyway, sounds need in general sense ...

i started project long time ago , created data access layer project in solution have never developed in it. purpose of data access layer? there sources learn more data access layer? in 2 words: loose coupling to keep code use pull data data store (database, flat files, web services, whatever) separate business logic , presentation code. way, if have change data stores, don't end rewriting whole thing. these days, various orm frameworks kind of blending dal other layers. typically makes development easier, changing data stores can painful. fair, changing data stores pretty uncommon.

i know how drag ball around extending view , overriding ondraw , calculating new coordinates , redrawing ball. if have hundreds of shapes inside view , need entire view moved around shapes together. recalculating every single shape doesn't seem feasible. on iphone can draw bunch of things inside view , move entire view , takes care of drawing things inside view me. have recalculate coordinates of view , set position not inside view. possible on android? thanks, steven use canvas.translate() method offset being drawn within ondraw() handler. track translation offsets based on cursor movement or whatever, , use offsets in call translate() . you can similar effect canvas.scale() handle pinch-zoom. don't forget save() , restore() put canvas original state! if want move view around within view, adjust top/left properties , call invalidate() . if complex layout, within relativelayout , use layoutparams position everything.

is possible? update table set number2 = number number != "" , set number, number2 = $number number=""; or need do update table set number2 = number number != ""; update table set number = $number, number2 = number number = ""; i them 2 "separate" statements , not worry trying find clever solution (which clever imnsho). you'll see quoted word "separate" above since decent dbms provide transactional support make 2 of statements one, in terms of atomicity (the in acid). in other words, like: start transaction; update table set number2 = number number != ""; update table set number = $number, number2 = number number = ""; commit transaction; this invariably faster (assuming number indexed) clever solution using per-row functions case , if , on, since 2 fast passes better 1 slow pass :-)

[edit] should have mentioned after solution doesn't require polling. [edit] curses! seems doesn't work on mapped network drive. i'm guessing windows doesn't 'hear' updates file way on local disk. have looked @ documentation available on http://timgolden.me.uk/python/win32_how_do_i/watch_directory_for_changes.html ? if need work under windows 2nd example seems want (if exchange path of directory 1 of file want watch). otherwise, polling platform-independent option. note: haven't tried of these solutions.

same question this , i'd in hibernate (using grails if matters). so domain class looks this class linkedelement { linkedelement precedingelement string somedata } and i'd query elements in linked order (where first linkedelement has null precedingelement). possible in efficient way? you can find out @ front of line (i.e. preceding element null). unfortunately, means you're in n+1 query territory whole list. query 1 - who's in front query 2 - who's behind 1 query 3 - who's behind 2 .... query n - who's behind n-1 query n+1 - who's behind n -> no 1 behind n, must @ end referring question mentioned, don't mistake efficient syntactically concise. because dbms give convenient syntax still solving same problem either a.) performing same inefficient algorithm simplified syntax or b.) indexing things ahead of time dbms has access data efficiently though didn't model way. so, if absolutely have solve problem specified dat...
