I am passing data - from an external event div - to a fullcalendar:
<div
class="fc-event"
data-some_text="name_of_Some_event_221"
data-some_ID_number_as_string="45787">
When I receive the event and test the types:
eventReceive: function(event){
alert(typeof event.some_text);// RETURNS STRING
alert(typeof event.some_ID_number_as_string);// RETURNS NUMBER
}
I want to keep the passed data 'some_ID_number_as_string' in a string format - for concatenation and string comparisons.
Why/where is this being being converted to a number - and - how do I prevent this from being converted to a number?
Thanks.

I have a problem with converting a string variable to TObject.
I have a query that returns two columns to me. In the first column I have varchar values that I translate into strings, and in the second column I have int values.
I want to fill a ComboBox in this way with these values:
cbx1-> AddItem (DataSet1->DataSet->Fields->Field[0]->AsString, (TObject *) (int) DataSet1->DataSet->Fields->Field[1];
As I refer to the second value which is int type, I receive some bushes, e.g., xD, etc.
By trying to convert this value to string, eg:
String temp = IntToStr (DataSet1->DataSet->Fields->Field[1]);
cbx1-> AddItem (DataSet1->DataSet->Fields->Field[0]->AsString, (TObject *) temp;
I receive an error message:
cannot cast from 'AnsiString' to 'TObject'
I do not know what further I can do to convert this value.
You cannot cast an AnsiString value to a TObject* pointer. You can only cast an integer value, or a pointer value, to a TObject* pointer. AnsiString is neither of those.
You are not retrieving the int value from the 2nd field correctly anyway. Field[1] is a pointer to an actual TField object in the Fields collection. That pointer is what you are trying to store in your ComboBox, NOT the int value that the TField represents.
You need to call Fields[1]->AsInteger to get the int value of the 2nd field, similar to how you use Fields[0]->AsString to get the string value of the 1st field:
cbx1->AddItem(
DataSet1->DataSet->Fields->Field[0]->AsString,
(TObject*) DataSet1->DataSet->Fields->Field[1]->AsInteger
// in C++, using reinterpret_cast is preferred over C-style casting:
// reinterpret_cast<TObject*>(DataSet1->DataSet->Fields->Field[1]->AsInteger)
);
This is no different than the code in your previous question:
cbx1->AddItem("one",(TObject*)1);
You are now just placing the literals "one" and 1 with runtime variables of equivalent types.
I'm using a date object to keep track of the current date in an application.
In my view I have a one way binding like this:
<h3>{{ currentDate | date }}</h3>
And in the component, I have functions to change this date, like this:
previousMonth(){
this.currentDate.setMonth(this.currentDate.getMonth() - 1);
}
nextMonth(){
this.currentDate.setMonth(this.currentDate.getMonth() + 1);
}
But when these functions are triggered, the currentDate value doesn't update on the view.
I made sure the date object is being updated, just not on the view.
Whenever I remove the date pipe, it works.
Anyone has any idea how to fix this?
Thanks!
The value is not updating in the view because the pipes in angular are so called pure (or, stateless) by default. That means that the input will not be re-evaluated if the input object changes, but only if it's replaced.
From the documentation (see section Pure and Impure pipes):
Angular executes a pure pipe only when it detects a pure change to the
input value. A pure change is either a change to a primitive input
value (String, Number, Boolean, Symbol) or a changed object reference
(Date, Array, Function, Object).
Try the following code instead:
previousMonth(){
this.currentDate.setMonth(this.currentDate.getMonth() - 1);
this.currentDate = new Date(this.currentDate);
}
nextMonth(){
this.currentDate.setMonth(this.currentDate.getMonth() + 1);
this.currentDate = new Date(this.currentDate);
}
When dynamically creating choices for SelectField in WTForms, I get (u'Choice',) rendered in the dropdown list.
I suspect its something to do with unicode, but no idea how to get the correct string.
for example
form.group_id_name.choices = [(row, row) for row in db.session.query(entry.group_id_name).distinct()]
In my forms I have
group_id_name = SelectField('group_id_name')
I would like it to render
<select id="group_id_name" name="group_id_name"><option value="Choice1">Choice1</option><option value="Choice2">Choice2</option></select>
Instead I get
<select id="group_id_name" name="group_id_name"><option value="(u'Choice1',)">(u'Choice1',)</option><option value="(u'Choice2',)">(u'Choice2',)</option></select>
It's not anything to do with Unicode.
query() returns a sequence of column values for each row. For a query with only one column in it you get a length-1-tuple.
When you implicitly convert a tuple to a string as part of the template you get the Python code representation of the tuple, which looks like (somevalue,).
You want to include the string value of the column itself in the template, so you should access the first element of the sequence, eg:
form.group_id_name.choices = [(row[0], row[0]) for row in db.session.query(entry.group_id_name).distinct()]
or using unpacking assignment:
form.group_id_name.choices = [(name, name) for (name,) in db.session.query(entry.group_id_name).distinct()]
I apologize for what seems to be an exceedingly simple question, but after 4 hours of searching and beating my head against the wall, I'm doubting my sanity.
I need a string format expression that trims a supplied string argument much like Substring(0,1). Although I've never seen this in code, it just seems like it should be possible.
Here's a very basic example of what I'm trying to do:
string ClassCode = "B608H2014"; // sample value from the user's class schedule
string fRoom = "{0:0,2}";
string fGrade = "{0:2,2}";
string fYear = "{0:5,4}";
string Classroom = String.Format(fRoom, ClassCode); // intended result - "B6"
string Gradelevel = String.Format(fGrade, ClassCode); // intended result - "08"
string Schoolyear = String.Format(fYear, ClassCode); // intended result - "2014"
This is a very basic example, but I'm trying to use the String.Format() so I can store the format pattern(s) in the database for each respective DTO property since the class code layouts are not consistent. I can just pass in the formats from the database along with the required properties and it extracts what I need.
Does this make sense?
When I submit the form, input error is occur. JourneyDate is instance of 'Date'. But ,here it become String which is not accepted by the setter and getter.
<s:hidden name="JourneyDate" value="%{JourneyDate}"></s:hidden>
I want JourneyPlan as Date Type, but it become String.
Try intercepting the value before passing it to the getter/setter. For example send JourneyDateString from your form, create a Date from the String, and then pass that to your getter/setter. Something like:
public void setJourneyDateString(String journeyDateString)
{
//journeyDateString could be "2013-03-28" for example
Date journeyDate = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd").parse(journeyDateString);
setJourneyDate(journeyDate);
}
The object that you've set in the value attribute will keep it's type as Date. Then you need to define corresponding setter in the action to set the value of the Date. It will convert to string if you place the value in the body of the tag.
