The documentation says Ctrl< but is seems not to work (I have Mmac with a US Keyboard). I can do CtrlSpace to insert a pair of quotes.
In Eclipse Oxygen.1a Release (4.7.1a)
CtrlShift< is the short-cut to «»
Simply use ctrlspace (Show proposals) on any Mac within an Xtend '''Rich String''', Eclipse will automatically insert «» in your rich string: '''Rich String «»'''

new Problem: my employer wishes me to implement CSVeed utility for a project. It works just fine except that data formatting is not recognised correctly. The data to read is formatted with semicolon (;) as field separator and colon (,) as decimal mark. The information on the projects home page is telling me that decimal conversion is done automatically, but e.g. a string 0,5 in csv file is interpeted as 5, a string 9,5 read as 95. In the source code of the project i find Information: "Makes sure that a specific Locale is used to convert numbers.". I am not exactly sure where to tell the csveed lib which l10n to use. At another point of source doc it says utility will use l10n of framework. Is this from Eclipse RCP which i am using oder from the machine ? Sorry for not posting any code, but i didnt find barely a hint where to setup
the decimal mark in the utility...
Anyone an idea ?
Greetings :)
My Goodness, why this verbose ? ^^
CsvClient<BeanClass> reader = new CsvClientImpl<BeanClass>(reader, BeanClass.class);
reader.setConverter("[name of property]", new CustomNumberConverter(Double.class, NumberFormat.getNumberInstance(Locale.[whereever]), false));
[name of property] has to be the name of the actual instance variable.
Greetings :)
Unlike PHP, I don't believe mySQL has any preg_replace() feature, only matching via REGEXP. Here are the strings I have in the code:
http://ourcompany.com/theapplestore/...
http://ourcompany.com/anotherstore/...
http://ourcompany.com/yetanotherstore/...
As you can see, there is a constant in there, http://ourcompany.com/, but there is also a variable string namely theapplestore, anotherstore, etc. etc.
I want to replace the constant string, plus the variable string(s), and then the trailing slash (/) after the variable string(s), with a single shortcode value, namely {{store url=''}}
EDIT
If it helps, the store codes are always the same length, they are going to be
sch131785
sch185399
sch634019
etc.
i.e., they are all 9 characters long
How would I do this? Thanks.
I thought this might be useful: there is currently NO WAY to do this in mysql. Find using REGEXP, yes; replace, no. That said, there is another post with an extension library mentioned, sagi:
Is there a MySQL equivalent of PHP's preg_replace?
MariaDB-10.0.5 has REGEXP_REPLACE(), REGEXP_INSTR() and REGEXP_SUBSTR()
You can use following regex,
(ourcompany.com\/\w+\/)

Uses the concept of Group Capture
I'm learning NLTK with a tutorial and whenever I try to print some text contents, it returns with 'u' in front of it.
In the tutorial it looks like this,
firefox.txt Cookie Manager: "Don't allow sites that set removed cookies to se...
But in my result, it looks like this
(u'firefox.txt', u'Cookie Manager: "Don\'t allow sites that set removed cookies to se', '...')
I am not sure why. I followed exact way the tutorial is explaining. Can someone help me understand this problem? Thank you!
That leading u just means that that string is Unicode. All strings are Unicode in Python 3. The parentheses means that you are dealing with a tuple. Both will go away if you print the individual elements of the tuple, as with t[0], t[1], and so on (assuming that t is your tuple).
If you want to print the whole tuple as a whole, removing u's and parentheses, try the following:
print " ".join (t)
As mentioned in other answer the leading u just means that string is Unicode. str() can be used to convert unicode to str but there doesnt seem to be a direct way to convert all the values in a tuple from unicode to string.
Simple function as below and using it when ever you are referring to any tuple in nltk.
>>> def str_tuple(t, encoding="ascii"):
... return tuple([i.encode(encoding) for i in t])
>>> str_tuple(nltk.corpus.gutenberg.fileids())
('austen-emma.txt', 'austen-persuasion.txt', 'austen-sense.txt', 'bible-kjv.txt', 'blake-poems.txt', 'bryant-stories.txt', 'burgess-busterbrown.txt', 'carroll-alice.txt', 'chesterton-ball.txt', 'chesterton-brown.txt', 'chesterton-thursday.txt', 'edgeworth-parents.txt', 'melville-moby_dick.txt', 'milton-paradise.txt', 'shakespeare-caesar.txt', 'shakespeare-hamlet.txt', 'shakespeare-macbeth.txt', 'whitman-leaves.txt')
I guess you are using Python2.6 or any version before 3.0.
Python allows its users to do the same operation on 'str()' and 'unicode' in the early version. They tried to make conversion between 'str()' and 'unicode' directly in some case rely on default encoding, which on most platform is ASCII. That's probably the reason cause your problem. Here are two ways may solve it:
First, manually assign decoding method. For example:
>> for name in nltk.corpus.gutenberg.fileids():
>> name.decode('utf-8')
>> print(name)
The other way is to UPDATE your Python to version 3.0+ (Recommended). They fix this problem in Python3.0. Here is the link to update detail description:
https://docs.python.org/release/3.0.1/whatsnew/3.0.html#text-vs-data-instead-of-unicode-vs-8-bit
Hope this helps you.
Is there a difference between org.apache.commons.lang.StringEscapeUtils.escapeHtml and org.apache.commons.lang3.StringEscapeUtils.escapeHtml4 ?
they come from different packages in fact
escapeHtml comes from org.commons.lang (lang 2.5 API) and let's you use a writer object. It can also escape string from an SQL source
escapeHtml4 is from org.commons.lang3 (lang 3.1 API) is specialy use to escape character from a HTML4 source. Nothing more, nothing less
They do the same job but i would recommend using "escapeHtml4" since its from a newer package
See : EscapeHtml4 and escapehtml
Note that StringEscapeUtils.escapeHtml() has issues with apostrophes
I'm working on a UTF-8 Persian website with integrated mysql database. All the content in the website are imported through an admin panel and it's all persian.
As you might know arabic language has the same letters as persian except some.
The problem is when a person tries to type on a keyboard with arabic layout it writes "ي" as an character and if he tries to type by a keyboard with persian layout it types "ی" as character.
So if a person searches for 'بازی' the mysql won't find 'بازي' as the result.
Important Note: 'ی' is not the only character with this property, there are lots of them and they are very similar.
How can I fix this issue?
One simple naive solution seems to be replace all "ي" with "ی" before importing the data into database, but i'm searching for a better robust solution than this.
Dear EBAG, We have a single Arabic block in Unicode which contains both Arabic & Persian characters.
06CC is Persian ی and 064A is Arabic ي
Default windows keyboard uses code page 1256 for arabic characters which put 064A as default ي for bothPersian and Arab users because Arab users are much more than Persian.
ISIRI make an standard keyboard ISIRI 9147 and put both Arabic and Persian Yeh on it but Perisan ی is the default characters. Persian users which are using standard keyboard will put ( and use ) standard Persian ی while the rest of them use arabicي`.
As you told usually while we are saving a data to database we change arabic ي to Persian ی and when we are reading from it we just go for Persian so everything is true.
the second approach is to use a JavaScript file in web application to control user input. most of the persian websites use this approach to save characters to database. In this method user don't need to install any Keyboard layout for Persian or Arabic keyboard. He/she just put the keyboard on English and then in JavaScript file developer check that which character is equevalent for him. Here you can find ISIRI 9147 javascript for web application and a Persian Guid to use it.
the Third approach is to use a On-Screen Keyboard that work just like the previous one with a user interface and is usually good for thise who are not familiar with Persian keyboard.
The forth approach is to search both dialect. As you know when you install MySql or SQL Server you can set the collation and also you have an option to support dialect ( and case sensivity). if you enable arabic collation with dialect you can get result for both of them and usually this works fine in sql server I don't test it in MySql. This is the best solution yet.
but if I were you, I implement a simple sql function which get nvarchar and return nvarchar. then I call it when I wanted to write data. and whenever you want to read, you can go for the standard one.
Sorry for the long tail.
update TABLENAME set COLUMNNAME=REPLACE(COLUMNNAME,NCHAR(1610),NCHAR(1740))
or
update TABLENAME set COLUMNNAME=REPLACE(COLUMNNAME,'ي',N'ی')
This is called a collation. It's what MySQL uses to compare two different characters. I'm afraid I don't know anything about persian or arabic, but the concept is the same. Essentially you've got two characters which map to the same base value. You need to find a collation which maps ي to ی. I'm afraid that's as helpful as I can be without knowing more about the language.
The first letter (ي) is Yāʾ in the arabic alphabet.
The second letter (ی) is ye in the perso-arabic alphabet.
More on the perso-arabic alphabet here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perso-Arabic_alphabet
"Two dots are removed in the final ye (ی). Arabic differentiates the final yāʾ with the two dots and the alif maqsura (except in Egyptian Arabic), which is written like a final yāʾ without two dots.
Because Persian drops the two dots in the final ye, the alif maqsura cannot be differentiated from the normal final ye. For example, the name Musâ (Moses) is written موسی. In the final letter in Musâ, Persian does not differentiate between ye or an alif maqsura."
Seems to be an interesting problem...
I was struggling with the similar situation 5-6 years ago, when Lucene was not an option for MySQL and there were no Sphinx (Never tried Sphinx result on this), but what I did was I found pretty much most of the possible alternations and put them in an array in PHP.
So if the input keyword contained any of those characters, I generated all the possible alternates of that.
So for the input of 'بازی' I would have generated {'بازي' , 'بازی' } and then I would query the MySQL for both, like the simplest query below :
SELECT title,Describtion FROM Games WHERE Description LIKE '%بازي%' OR Description LIKE '%بازی%'
The primary list of alternatives is not very long though.
If you've the possibility to switch DB engine, you might want to look into the full text search functionality of PostgreSQL:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.0/static/textsearch.html
Among other things, you can configure it so that it indexes/searches unaccented characters, and you can define all sorts of additional dictionaries (e.g. stop words, thesaurus, synonyms, etc.).
If not, consider using Sphinx or Lucene instead of like statements for your searches.
I know answering this topic is like digging a corpse from its grave since it's really old but I'd like to share my experience IMHO, the best way is to wrap your request and apply your replacement . it's more portable than other ways. here is a java sample
public class FarsiRequestWrapper extends HttpServletRequestWrapper{
#Override
public String getParameter(String name) {
String parameterValue = super.getParameter(name);
parameterValue.replace("ی", "ي");
parameterValue.replace("\\s+", " ");
parameterValue.replace("ک","ک");
return parameter.trim();
}
}
then you only need to setup a filter servlet
public class FarsiFilter implements Filter{
public void doFilter(ServletRequest request, ServletResponse response,
FilterChain chain) throws IOException, ServletException {
HttpServletRequest req = (HttpServletRequest) request;
FarsiRequestWrapper rw = new FarsiRequestWrapper(req);
chain.doFilter(rw, response);
}
}
although this approach only works in Java, I found it simpler and better.
You must use N (meaning uNicode) before non-English characters, for example:
REPLACE(COLUMNNAME, N'ي', N'ی')
