GIT - swap origin from master to develop branch

Easy steps to swap local branches from master to develop, do it from working directory:

git fetch && git checkout develop
git remote set-head origin develop

GRADLE - delete whole directory with all subdirectories

Override clean task:

clean {
    delete += 'dist'
}

If you do like this it will remove all files but leaves empty sub-directories:(!!!!!!)
clean {

    delete += fileTree('someDir')
}

or

clean {

    delete += fileTree('someDir').include('**/*')
}

BOWER - difference between tilde(~) and caret(^) before version number

In the simplest terms, the tilde matches the most recent minor version (the middle number). ~1.2.3 will match all 1.2.x versions but will miss 1.3.0.

The caret, on the other hand, is more relaxed. It will update you to the most recent major version (the first number). ^1.2.3 will match any 1.x.x release including 1.3.0, but will hold off on 2.0.0.

GULP - how to configure Gulp to use Sass instead of Less

In order to use Sass instead of Less with Gulp follow this instruction:
https://www.npmjs.com/package/gulp-ruby-sass

and here:
https://github.com/sindresorhus/gulp-ruby-sass

Here is the gulp task for Sass (instead of Less) in HotTowel generator for Angular project:

var sass = require('gulp-ruby-sass');

/** * Compile less to css * @return {Stream} */gulp.task('styles', ['clean-styles'], function() {
    /*log('Compiling Less --> CSS');
    return gulp        .src(config.less)        .pipe($.plumber()) // exit gracefully if something fails after this        .pipe($.less())//        .on('error', errorLogger) // more verbose and dupe output. requires emit.        .pipe($.autoprefixer({browsers: ['last 2 version', '> 5%']}))        .pipe(gulp.dest(config.temp));*/
    log('Compiling Sass --> CSS');
    return sass(config.sass)
        .pipe($.autoprefixer({browsers: ['last 2 version', '> 5%']}))
        .pipe(gulp.dest(config.temp));
});
gulp.task('sass:watch', function () {
    gulp.watch(config.sass, ['sass']);

});

JVM - stack, heap etc good explained (link)

http://blog.jamesdbloom.com/JVMInternals.html

JAVA - when WeakReference and SoftReference are equaly garbage collected

WeakReference - is ALWAYS eagerly garbage collected.
SoftReference - is LESS eagerly garbage collected on Server JVM.

The Sun JRE does treat SoftReferences differently from WeakReferences. We attempt to hold on to object referenced by a SoftReference if there isn't pressure on the available memory. One detail: the policy for the "-client" and "-server" JRE's are different: the -client JRE tries to keep your footprint small by preferring to clear SoftReferences rather than expand the heap, whereas the -server JRE tries to keep your performance high by preferring to expand the heap (if possible) rather than clear SoftReferences. One size does not fit all.

JAVA - collections, the main difference between Map and SortedMap contracts

The main difference between Map and SortedMap contracts is its approach to comparing of keys.

Map contract is to compare keys with equals method.
SortedMap contract is to compare keys with provided or class natural compator.

From javadoc of Comparable<T> interface: This ordering is referred to as the class's natural ordering, and the class's compareTo method is referred to as its natural comparison method.

Objects that implement this interface can be used as keys in a sorted map or as elements in a sorted set, without the need to specify a comparator.

Why NULL can not be set as value in Set?
The natural ordering for a class C is said to be consistent with equals if and only if e1.compareTo(e2) == 0 has the same boolean value as e1.equals(e2) for every e1 and e2 of class C. Note that null is not an instance of any class, and e.compareTo(null) should throw a NullPointerException even though e.equals(null) returns false.

GIT - 'git reset' my explanation

When and how to use git reset.

Case 1:
You have commited changes, but not yet pushed it. (never reset shared (pushed) commits, read this)
AND
You want to undo this commit and continue to work on these changes in it.
git reset --soft HEAD~1

Case 2:
You have commited changes, but not yet pushed it. (never reset shared (pushed) commits, read this)
AND
You want to undo this commit and DO NOT WANT to continue to work on these changes in it.
git reset --hard HEAD~1
In this case all changes of this commit will be lost and you will not see it in your Local Changes list (e.g. in InteleJIdea IDE)

HEAD~1 means 'one commit from HEAD'

JAVA - Out of Memory Errors by Incorrect Implementation of Equal and Hashcode, link

The relationship between the hashcode and equals methods and memory problems is not obvious at first. But we only need to think about hashmaps to make it more clear. An object's hashcode is used to insert and find objects in hashmaps. However, the hashcode is not unique, which is a why it only selects a bucket that can potentially contain multiple objects. Because of this, the equals method is used to make sure that we find the correct object. If the hashcode method is wrong (which can lead to a different result for otherwise-equal objects), we will never find an object in a hashmap. The consequence is often that the application inserts an object again and again.

Although the growing collection can easily be identified by most tools, the root cause is not obvious in a heap dump. I have seen this case over and over through the years, and one extreme case led the customer to run his JVMs with 40 GB of memory. The JVM still needed to be restarted once a day to avoid out-of-memory errors. We fixed the problem and now the application runs quite stable at 800 MB!

A heap dump — even if complete information on the objects is available — rarely helps in this case. One simply would have to analyze too many objects to identify the problem. The best approach is to be proactive and automatically unit-test comparative operators. A few free frameworks (such as EqualsVerifier) ensure that the equals and hashcode methods conform to the contract.

Use EqualsVerifier for Java UnitTests

GWT - ListBox with Enum vs ValueListBox implementation example

public class EnumListBoxEditor<T extends Enum<T>> implements IsWidget, LeafValueEditor<T> {

    private ListBox listBox;    private Class<T> enumType;
    public EnumListBoxEditor(Class<T> tClass) {
        listBox = new ListBox();        this.enumType = tClass;        for(T e : enumType.getEnumConstants()) {
            listBox.addItem(e.name());        }
    }

    @Override    public Widget asWidget() {
        return listBox;    }

    @Override    public void setValue(T language) {
        listBox.setSelectedIndex(language.ordinal());    }

    @Override    public T getValue() {
        int index = listBox.getSelectedIndex();        T result = null;        for (T e : enumType.getEnumConstants()) {
            String itemName = listBox.getValue(index);            if (e.name().equals(itemName)) {
               result = e;            }
        }
        return result;    }

    public void setEnabled(boolean isEnabled){
        listBox.setEnabled(isEnabled);    }

}

Thus this approach is acceptable the best way to use ListBox with any Enum or bean that implement HasLabel interface is ValueListBox component e.g.:

@UiField(provided = true)
ValueListBox<TeamDTO> team;

this.team = new ValueListBox<TeamDTO>(new HasLabelRenderer<TeamDTO>(), new IdentityProvidesKey<TeamDTO>());

public class HasLabelRenderer<T extends HasLabel> extends AbstractRenderer<T>{

    @Override    public String render(HasLabel object) {
        return object == null ? "" : object.getLabel();    }

}

public class IdentityProvidesKey<T extends Identity> implements ProvidesKey<T> {
    @Override    public Object getKey(T item) {
        return item == null ? null: item.getId();    }
}

JAVA - example of use in overrided method generic type of class that extends interface

public class HasLabelRenderer<T extends HasLabel> extends AbstractRenderer<T>{

    @Override    public String render(HasLabel object) {
        return object == null ? "" : object.getLabel();    }

}

This approach is possible due to the fact that in generics e.g. Bounded Type Parameter the type can be of the upper type it is extended. For instance, in example above the type T in HasLabelRenderer<T extends HasLabel>  can be of type HasLabel interface.

JavaScript - iterate or loop over JavaScript object or JSON

It is taken from here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/684672/loop-through-javascript-object

In JavaScript, every object has a bunch of built-in key-value pairs that have meta-information. When you loop through all the key-value pairs for an object you're looping through them too. hasOwnPropery() filters these out:

for (var key in p) {
  if (p.hasOwnProperty(key)) {
    alert(key + " -> " + p[key]);
  }
}

In ECMAScript 5 you have new approach in iteration fields of literal - Object.keys

More information you can see on MDN

My choice is below as a faster solution in current versions of browsers (Chrome30, IE10, FF25)

var keys = Object.keys(p),
    len = keys.length,
    i = 0,
    prop,
    value;
while (i < len) {
    prop = keys[i];
    value = p[prop];
    i += 1;

AngularJS - Combating AngularJS executing controller twice

AngularJS docs - ngController
Note that you can also attach controllers to the DOM by declaring it in a route definition via the $route service. A common mistake is to declare the controller again using ng-controller in the template itself. This will cause the controller to be attached and executed twice.

1. Install WebStorm
2. Install NodeJS
3. Check it is installed:
   C:\Users\Andre>npm -version
   2.10.1
4. Run from the AngularJS root project directory npm install:
e.g. listed below.
5. In order to debbug JavaScript check that your Chrome has jetbrains-ide-support extension. If it is not installed look for it here: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/jetbrains-ide-support/hmhgeddbohgjknpmjagkdomcpobmllji

JavaScript - testing tools: Jasmine (BDD), JsUnit, Karma (test runner)

1. Jasmine http://jasmine.github.io/ is the priority for testing, due to its BDD approach. 
2. JsUnit is an option (w/o BDD):http://www.jsunit.net/
3. Karma http://karma-runner.github.io/0.12/index.html - it is JavaScript test runner.

AngularJS + Bootstrap best practice

The main point: with AngularJS use pure CSS Bootstrap (don't use BootstrapJS)

JavaScript - shuffle an array, mix up array elements randomly

Mix up (shuffle) array JavaScript function is taken from here:
Fisher–Yates Shuffle http://bost.ocks.org/mike/shuffle/
function shuffle(array) {
  var m = array.length, t, i;

  // While there remain elements to shuffle…
  while (m) {

    // Pick a remaining element…
    i = Math.floor(Math.random() * m--);

    // And swap it with the current element.
    t = array[m];
    array[m] = array[i];
    array[i] = t;
  }

  return array;
}

JavaScript D3 - random integer number

Decimal values are fine, but if you ever need whole numbers, you can use JavaScript’s Math.round() method. For example, you could wrap the random number generator from this line

    var newNumber = Math.random() * 30;

as follows:

    var newNumber = Math.round(Math.random() * 30);

Example:

d3.selectAll("p").style("color", function() { return "hsl(" + Math.round(Math.random() * 360) + ",100%,50%)"; });

Javascript D3 good basic explanation

JavaScript D3 - example how the function(d, i) works

http://jsfiddle.net/M8nK8/

==HTML==
<script src="http://d3js.org/d3.v3.min.js"></script>
<section></section>


===JS D3==

var data=[10,20,30,40];

var lis = d3.select("section")
          .append("ul")
            .selectAll("li")
            .data(data)

lis.enter()
 .append("li")
 .text(function(d,i){ return "item n° "+i+" has value: "+d})

JavaScript D3 - forEach() vs each() function

The main takeaway is that, using .each() you get access to 3 things you need: d, this and i. With .forEach(), on an array (like in the example from the beginning) you only get 2 things (d and i), and you'd have to do a bunch of work to also associate an HTML element with those 2 things. And that, among other things, is how d3 is useful.

Could not reserve enough space for object heap

Here is the errors during the Maven build:

Error occurred during initialization of VM 
Could not reserve enough space for object heap 
Error: Could not create the Java Virtual Machine. 
Error: A fatal exception has occurred. Program will exit. 
Picked up _JAVA_OPTIONS: -Duser.home=C:\Users\Andre

In order to fix this, add an extra parameter to _JAVA_OPTIONS sys environment:
-Xmx512m

So it should look something like this:
_JAVA_OPTIONS: -Duser.home=C:\Users\Andre -Xmx512m

Issues with user.home during Maven build

If you have issue with incorrect property user.home during Maven build set this sys environment:

_JAVA_OPTIONS=C:\Users\username

GWT - how dynamically change a static css of theme in GWT Dev Mode

We know that all static resources e.g. images, css should be kept in project structure in static way e.g. through resource or public packages. This principle supposes that these kind of resources rarely will be changed. But if in your RIA GWT project you have to override some theme's css by some custom-style.css and see the result lets say "right now" in Dev Mode there would be the problem because if both css stored statically you can not dynamically see the result of the change just by refreshing the browser page e.g. F5.

If you want to see your css changes dynamically in GWT Dev Mode you have to inject your e.g. custom-style.css through ClientBundle somewhere in the beginning e.g. onModuleLoad().

===== Create this class inside resource package in you java src ====
 
import com.google.gwt.core.client.GWT;
import com.google.gwt.resources.client.ClientBundle;
import com.google.gwt.resources.client.CssResource;
import com.google.gwt.resources.client.CssResource.NotStrict;

/**
 * Created by panoand on 08/05/2015.
 */
public interface AppResources extends ClientBundle {

    AppResources INSTANCE = GWT.create(AppResources.class);

    @Source("css/custom-style.css")
    @NotStrict
    CssResource foo();
}

===== In your EntryPoint class put it inside onLoadModule() methode =====
AppResources.INSTANCE.foo().ensureInjected();
