I'm using a hash table (DotNET Dictionary object) as part of a sparse two-dimensional data set. Most of the entries in the hash table will be close together. I'll probably end up with 100 ~ 10,000 entries, all of them clustered near zero. I've read that a Hash table performs better when the hashes are spread across the entire integer(32 ...
I'm caching files locally in my 3 tier app. To check whether to read the file from the local cache or from the server I compare file dates. I've found that there when converting file dates to TDateTime and viceversa there are inconsistencies and values that should match rarely do. Here's some code that demostrates the problem procedure ...
Hello, How can I convert an NSString containing a number of any primitive data type (e.g. int, float, char, unsigned int, etc.)? The problem is, I don't know which number type the string will contains at runtime. I have an idea how to do it, but I'm not sure if this works with any type, also unsigned and floating point values: long lo...
I have a plugin written entirely in Python using PyObjC whose core classes I need to convert to Objective-C. One of them basically just loads up a Python module and executes a specific function, passing it keyword arguments. In PyObjC, this was extremely. However, I'm having difficulty figuring out how to do the same thing using the P...

Possible Duplicate: How to convert hex to a byte array? I'm searching for a python compatible method in C# to convert hex to binary. I've reversed a hash in Python by doing this: import sha import base64 import binascii hexvalue = "5baa61e4c9b93f3f0682250b6cf8331b7ee68fd8" binaryval = binascii.unhexlify(hexvalue) print base64...
Hey everyone, I've got a legacy app just starting to misbehave, for whatever reason I'm not sure. It generates a bunch of HTML that gets turned into PDF reports by ActivePDF. The process works like this: Pull an HTML template from a DB with tokens in it to be replaced (e.g. "~CompanyName~", "~CustomerName~", etc.) Replace the tokens...
I have done a lot with Java but I am currently trying to learn c. I am trying to make a program to convert a number from decimal to binary. Here is what I have: #include <stdio.h> #define LENGTH 33 int main( int argc, char*argv[ ] ) { unsigned int number, base, remainder, x, i; char result[LENGTH]; puts( "Enter a decimal value, a...
Can someone tell me why the line with "//Compiles" compiles, and why the line with "//Doesn't Compile" does not? I don't understand why A would be implicitly convertible to B, not the other way round. public class SomeClass { static public void Test() { AClass a = new AClass(); BClass b = new BClass(); a = b; // Compiles b...
I have a task at work that involves converting legacy SGM files into XML. The SGM files were created using 5 separate high level tags, the new DTD has about 8-12 top level tags that the old ones would need to be mapped to. There are some common tags between the 2 DTDs but there are enough differences that it doesn't make sense to just do...
I'm having an issue with converting a BitmapImage (WPF) to grayscale, whilst keeping the alpha channel. The source image is a PNG. The MSDN article here works fine, but it removes the alpha channel. Is there any quick and effective way of converting a BitmapImage to a grayscale? ...
Hi, Do you know any java library for ppt to jpg conversion? I've tried openoffice3 and POI (http://poi.apache.org/slideshow/quick-guide.html). OpenOffice takes quite long to load (full startup), even though I want to convert the slides only. POI-HSLF only generates images for simple slides (created by myself). all the test slides get...
I'm looking to write a pair of utilities that read in a newline separated list of integers on stdin and output their binary (4 byte) equivalent to stdout, and vice versa. My first thought was a simple bash/linux command that would do this, but I was unable to find one. My second thought was to do this in C++, but I can't figure out how...

I have two masked TextBox controls and was wondering how I'd go about getting the time in each one and then converting the difference into milliseconds. Like, say in tb1 I write "12:01" and in tb2 I write "12:02", and then click a button. Once the button's clicked it starts a timer and at 12:02 a messagebox will be displayed. I know how ...
Does anyone know if its feasible to convert PCM/FLAC files to some compressed format (mp3/wma/ogg, not picky), with the conversion process running on Azure? An Amazon EC2 based solution would be trivial, as 3rd party libraries could be installed; but what about Azure? ...
Hi I have a question about the implicit type conversion Why does this implicit type conversion work in C#? I've learned that implicit code usually don't work.
