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?

I am trying to compare two jsons, expected and the API Response using Javers, as part of testing. I want the comparison to exclude the ID parameters that are dynamically generated by response.
My VO is like
public class expectedResponse{
#DiffIgnore
private String id;
private String name;
}
Both my expectedResponse- which is read from excel file and the actual response from API are deserialized into this format and then both the responses are compared.
JsonNode expectedOutput = mapper.readTree(expected.toString());
JsonNode apiResponse = mapper.readTree(actual.toString());
diff=javers.compare(expectedOutput, apiResponse);
But this comparison doesn't exclude/ignore the ID field. Any Idea how I can get it to work? I want only the ID field excluded in comparison results, diff in name should be listed.
Also question 2> I am trying to list the changes from diff
if (diff.hasChanges())
{
List<ValueChange> changes=diff.getChangesByType(ValueChange.class);
for (ValueChange change : changes)
{
logger.info(change.getPropertyName()+ "||" +change.getLeft().toString() + "||" +change.getRight().toString());
change.getPropertyName()- doesnt print the property's name but simply prints "_value" as its value.
Can you pls help in identifying what is going wrong with the code and how can I get this fixed? I am not finding much useful documentations about Javers anywhere in google. Any help is appreciated.
You should compare you domain object instead of object with JsonNode class, look that #DiffIgnore annotation is present only in your domain class and there is no connection between JsonNode and ExpectedResponse, thats why Javers doesn't know to ignore this field.
To summarise, your code should looks like this:
ExpectedResponse expectedOutput = ...
ExpectedResponse apiResponse = ...
diff=javers.compare(expectedOutput, apiResponse);
I have these codes but then the value display in the edit box is "mm/dd/yyyy"
#Html.TextBoxFor(m => m.StartDate, new { #Value = Model.StartDate.ToString("MM/dd/yyyy"), #placeholder= Model.StartDate.ToString("MM/dd/yyyy"), #class = "form-control", #type="date" })
How can I achieve something like this where the displayed date is the value from the database and not "mm/dd/yyyy"
First, don't set the value attribute directly. Razor will pretty much ignore this anyways. The value for a bound field comes from ModelState, which is itself composed of values from Request, ViewBag/ViewData, and Model, in that order. So, for example, if you want StartDate to default to "today", then you would simply populate your model with that in the action before you return the view:
model.StartDate = DateTime.Today;
Or, better, you can change the property on your model class to default to today automatically:
private DateTime? startDate;
public DateTime StartDate
{
get { return startDate ?? DateTime.Today; }
set { startDate = value; }
}
Just bear in mind that if your action happens to take a param like startDate or you set something like ViewBag.StartDate, those values will always take precedence.
Second, you're utilizing an HTML5 date input type. In browsers that support the HTML5 input types, the supplied value for a datetime, date or time, must be in ISO format. For a date, that means YYYY-MM-DD. If the value is not supplied like that, then the browser considers it garbage and discards it, leaving the control as if no value was supplied.
Also, FWIW, you don't need to prefix every member of your anonymous object with #. It doesn't technically hurt anything, but it's code smell. The # prefix exists to escape language keywords. With class, for example, you can't use it directly since it's a keyword, so you have to use #class instead. However, things like placeholder and type are not keywords, and therefore don't need an # prefix.
I am writing a translator which converts DSL to multiple programming language (It seems like Apache Thrift).
For example,
// an example DSL
LOG_TYPE: COMMERCE
COMMON_FIELD : session_id
KEY: buy
FIELD: item_id, transaction_id
KEY: add_to_cart
FIELD: item_id
// will be converted to Java
class Commerce {
private String session_id
private String key;
private String item_id;
private String transaction_id
// auto-created setter, getter, helper methods
...
}
It also should be translated into objective-c and javascript.
To implement it, I have to replace string
// 1. create or load code fragments
String variableDeclarationInJava = "private String {$field};";
String variableDeclarationInJavascript = "...";
String variableDeclarationInObjC = "...";
// 2. replace it
variableDeclarationInJava.replace(pattern, fieldName)
...
Replacing code fragment in String is not type safe and frustrating since it does not any information even if there are errors.
So, my question is It is possible to parse String at compile time? like Scala sqltyped library
If it is possible, I would like to know how can I achieve it.
Thanks.
As far, as I understand, it could be. Please take a look at string interpolation. You implement a custom interpolator, (like it was done for quasi quotations or in Slick).
A nice example of the thing you may want to do is here
I am using dotnetrdf and trying to parse some triples with NTriplesParser. I have my own handler RobHandler in which I process each triple in turn.
public class RobHandler : BaseRdfHandler
{
protected override bool HandleTripleInternal(Triple t)
{
string predicateUrl = ((BaseUriNode)(t.Predicate)).Uri.AbsoluteUri;
string value = t.Object.ToString();
}
}
This works fine but I want to get the object minus the language. My objects look like "Lincoln"#en. I could obviously write some code to remove the #en bit, but I'd rather use some library code rather than my own that hard-coded strings like #en. To do this I think I need to create a LiteralNode but there doesn't seem to be a way to get from a string which is what I have (my variable value) to a LiteralNode.
How can I extract just the textual value from an object string?
Actually I think I have the answer myself:
if (t.Object.NodeType == NodeType.Literal)
{
var node = (ILiteralNode)t.Object;
}
I'm working on a new application and i need to make a messages interface with lookup, using the key to find the value (like ConstantsWithLookup, but capable to receive parameters). I have being investigating Dictionary class functionality but it lacks message customization through parameters.
With ConstantsWithLookup i can make the following:
myConstantsWithLookupInterface.getString("key");
and get something like:
Field must be filled with numbers
But i need to do this:
myMessagesWithLookupInterface.getString("key", "param1", "param2",...);
and get something like:
Field _param1_ must be filled with numbers greater than _param2_
I have no clue how to do this.
Use GWT regular expressions:
//fields in your class
RegEx pattern1 = RegEx.compile("_param1_");
RegEx pattern2 = RegEx.compile("_param2_");
public String getString(String key, String replace1, String replace2){
// your original getString() method
String content = getString(key);
content = pattern1.replace(content,replace1);
content = pattern2.replace(content,replace2);
return content;
}
If your data contains Field _param1_ must be filled with numbers greater than _param2_ then this will replace _param1_ with content of string replace1.
