Debug Database with adb in Andoid

2010-04-06T15:01:00.001+05:30

When I have created the sqlite database directly from my application. I am not getting where the database actually stored with application

Then I found that the system stores databases in the /data/data/package_name/databases folder by default.

To access that database We can use adb

Android Debug Bridge (adb) is a versatile tool lets you manage the state of an emulator instance or Android-powered device

adb -s emulator-5554 shell
adb -s <serialNumber> <command>
sqlite3 /data/data/package_name/databases/database_name

Now you can access sqlite promt

sqlite> .databases

which display

seq name file
--- --------------- ----------------------------------------------------------
1 main data/data/package_name/databases/databasename

Use Google Map API with Android

2010-03-31T10:39:00.001+05:30

To Use Google map API few things you have do

Sign Up for Google Map API

Get the MD5 from your local machine :


$ keytool -list -keystore ~/.android/debug.keystore

 like
Certificate fingerprint (MD5): 8E:EA:04:13:F2:A8:A6:E6:A3:A5:20:96:9E:0A:30:DB

And enter the code here and generate the API code (Which looks like below image)

and add code to res/layout/main.xml


    <com.google.android.maps.MapView
    android:id="@+id/myGMap"
     android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent"
    android:enabled="true"
    android:clickable="true"
    android:apiKey="0T3dTjk2jvhmuFEAdn4DjX08e3eEeA-IoYEnWag" /*Your API key here*/
    />

Now geol.java extend the class MapActivity instead of Activity


gMapView = (MapView) findViewById(R.id.myGMap);

gMapView.setSatellite(true);

mc = gMapView.getController();

// Adding zoom controls to Map

ZoomControls zoomControls = (ZoomControls) gMapView.getZoomControls();

zoomControls.setLayoutParams(new ViewGroup.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,

LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));

gMapView.addView(zoomControls);

gMapView.displayZoomControls(true);


//This method is required for some accounting from the Maps service to see if you're currently displaying any route information. In this case, you're not, so return false.

@Override

protected boolean isRouteDisplayed() {

    return false;

}

In AndroidManifest.xml You also need access to the Internet in order to retrieve map tiles, so you must also request the INTERNET permission. In the manifest file, add the following as a child of the element:


<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"></uses-permission>

And now Run the application
Output :

Add Favicon icon to drupal site

2009-10-14T18:20:00.000+05:30

Now, to add it to drupal with a theme using the phptemplate engine is easy. Just upload the favicon.ico file to the base directory of your theme. The same directory your style.css file is in. Drupal will automatically detect it and do the work to make it display on your site.
If you are using something other than drupal than to have your favicon display will need one more step. Once the file is uploaded to the sever, the following piece of code needs to be up on your web pages in the

<head/>

<link rel="shortcut icon" href="/path/to/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon" />

Just change the /path/to to the path to your favicon.ico file and your all set.

Add Front page to Drupal's home page

2009-10-14T18:05:00.000+05:30

1. Within your theme, copy the file named page.tpl.php to page-front.tpl.php.
2. Note that the name page-front.tpl.php conforms to Drupal's naming standards, so Drupal will realize you want this to be the theme page for your front page.
3. Modify page-front.tpl.php to make your front page look the way you want it to. This page is really just a combination of HTML, CSS, PHP, and possibly JavaScript, so if you're comfortable working with these tools, this page can easily be modified.

Change FCKEditor font size listing in Numeric value

2009-04-22T10:35:00.002+05:30

Find the file fckconfig.js in FCKEditor fckconfig.js

Change the line

FCKConfig.FontSizes = 'smaller;larger;xx-small;x-small;small;medium;large;x-large;xx-large' ;

with

FCKConfig.FontSizes = '1/5;2/6;3/7;4/8;5/9;6/10;7/11;8/12;9/14;10/16;11/18;12/20;13/24;14/28;15/30;16/60;17/90' ;

And you will get Numeric list in your FCKEditor instead of String.

Open uploaded pdf files in other browser tab with drupal

2009-04-22T10:16:00.003+05:30

As in MAC OS and Linux the uploaded file in drupal site is default open with Save As Dialog box, but where as in Windows the pdf file is open in current browser window.

To Open that pdf in other window

In the core upload module of Drupal go to modules/upload/upload.module is where you will find the function theme_upload_attachments() as follows:

function theme_upload_attachments($files) {
  $header = array(t('Attachment'), t('Size'));
  $rows = array();
  foreach ($files as $file) {
    $file = (object)$file;
    if ($file->list && empty($file->remove)) {
      $href = file_create_url($file->filepath);
      $text = $file->description ? $file->description : $file->filename;
      $rows[] = array(l($text, $href), format_size($file->filesize));
    }
  }
  if (count($rows)) {
    return theme('table', $header, $rows, array('id' => 'attachments'));
  }
}

In this function change

  $rows[] = array(l($text, $href), format_size($file->filesize));

with

$rows[] = array(l($text, $href, array('attributes' => array('target' => '_blank'))), format_size($file->filesize));



And you can get files are being open in other browser tab rather than current browser window.

Integrate Gujarati Dictionary StarDict with Linux And MAc

2009-04-10T11:47:00.013+05:30

You have to follow some simple steps to integrate your dictionary/ your collection of data to StarDict dictionary.

Easy Launch/Search for applications and files in linux

2009-03-04T13:07:00.007+05:30

I found two ways to launch application in Linux

1.Application Launcher

There is application launcher in Linux Which is accessible with keyboard shortcut ALT+F2 ,In which can find and launch application easily

2. Gnome Do

GNOME Do is a popular, free application launcher for Linux by David Siegel.It allows you to search for applications and files also allows you to specify actions to perform on search results by providing instantaneous, action-oriented search results that adapt to reflect user habits and preferences.

Encode Unicode character to Utf-8 in url

2009-02-24T13:12:00.002+05:30

URLs should only contain ASCII/Unicode charachter. That character set is quite restrictive if you want to use Gujarati characters for instance, so there is some encoding needed here. So if you've got a string with a Gujarati character and you want to link to it, you need to do this:

"કળા: -> "%E0%AA%95%E0%AA%B3%E0%AA%BE"

Thankfully this can be done with a bit of Java:

java.net.URLEncoder.encode("","UTF-8");

So, whenever you need to generate something for the address bar or a direct or something like that, you must URL encode the data. You don't have to detect this as it doesn't hurt to do this for links which are just plain as they don't get changed, as you can see with the string ending

Nice line -1

Disabling User module in drupal:stucked outside!

2008-11-27T12:39:00.003+05:30

It is dump situation where I disable User login module and log out as admin. N permission restricts me to bring back login as admin as no login form is there,

On that day I spent couple of minutes trying to access site, N As I fed up that day, had given access permission to anonymous user through database access (I know it is very stupid way to get out of situation)

THen on next M'ning I found the solution for that from drupal forum that I can access login page by
www.site-name.com?q=user

Working with drupal:Installation

2008-11-26T08:11:00.001+05:30

1. Download Drupal 6.x form http://drupal.org/.

2. tar -zxvpf drupal-x.x.tar.gz

3. put this folder into /var/www/

4. mv drupal-x.x/* drupal-x.x/.htaccess /var/www/html

5. Change the permission for setting.php chmod a+w sites/default/settings.php or chmod 777 sites/default/settings.php

6. Create the database using Mysql

* apt-get install mysql

* mysqladmin -u username -p create databasename (where username and password can get from /etc/mysql/debian.cnf)

* GRANT SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, CREATE, DROP, INDEX, ALTER ON databasename.* TO 'username'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
where
'databasename' is the name of your database
'username@localhost' is the username of your MySQL account
'password' is the password required for that username

7. Then run the script using : http://localhost/drupal-6.6/

8. And you get the welcome page of drupal

9. Then do all settings and congiguration like (site name,logo,feature,database name,another user etc)

Installation of Cygwin in Windows Machine

2008-11-26T08:05:00.002+05:30

1. Install either from DVD or from site www.cygwin.com
2. Run setup.exe any time you want to update or install a Cygwin package.
3. Only the minimal base packages from the Cygwin distribution are installed by default. Clicking on categories and packages in the setup.exe package installation screen will provide you with the ability to control what is installed or updated. Clicking on the "Default" field next to the "All" category will provide you with the opportunity to install every Cygwin package
4. Remove the symlink or symblic link from c:/cygwin/bin

-$ls -l(view symlink)
list: target_filename symlink_filename

-copy the content of target_filename into symlink_filename
$cp targetfile symlink_filename

-and remove symlink by:
$unlink symlink_filename

Now you can use Linux-like environment for Windows. It consists of two parts: A DLL (cygwin1.dll) which acts as a Linux API emulation layer providing substantial Linux API functionality. A collection of tools which provide Linux look and feel. The Cygwin DLL currently works with all recent, commercially released x86 32 bit and 64 bit versions of Windows.

Build the binary module package yourself-Madwifi

2008-11-05T07:49:00.002+05:30

When I am working on Debian Live project I found a problem :

I am customizing Debian Live using Live-helper
Kernal using :Linux 2.6.26-1-686

The wifi-connection is not being detected, I have packed madwifi-tools, madwifi-source,wireless-tools,gnome-network-admin,network-manager packages any other packages are required for that wife-connection.

I am using linux 2.6.26-1-686 kernal and I didn't find madwifi-modules-2.6.26-1-686.so how can I able to add that ?

Here is the solution ...........

madwifi modules are not prebuilt in the archive because the maintainer of madwifi didn't wanted us to do that (on behalf of linux-modules-nonfree-2.6).

however, you need to build the binary module package yourself (m-a build madwifi) and put it into your config/chroot_local-packages.

And now your madwifi package support in your customized Debian Live

“User’s $HOME/.dmrc” file is being ignored.

2008-11-05T07:43:00.001+05:30

When your linux machine gives .dmrc problem

"“User’s $HOME/.dmrc” file is being ignored. This prevents the default session and language from being saved. File should be owned by user and have 644 permission. User $HOME directory must be owned by user and not writable by other users

Do this....

sudo chmod 644 ~/.dmrc
sudo chown your_username ~/.dmrc
sudo chmod 755 /home/your_username
sudo chown your_username /home/your_username

Are you afraid of the dark!!! -Sidney Sheldon

2008-10-16T08:00:00.002+05:30

I have just finished reading this book ...............

The book starts with the cops who find the dead bodies of various scientists. It tells us briefly about the lives of the two widows when they were married rather happily married. One widow being a high profile model the other being a girl next door kind of a person. This book is a story of the wives of two good scientist who escape death several times. The two lose their husband as they were murdered for being involved in a very high profile undercover project.

The book describes how the two widows decide to find out the person involved in murdering their husband and in the process how do they escape death several times and finally whether did they die or not ? is a question which will be answered only after reading the book.

ARE YOU AFRAID OF THE DARK? is a pleasant and easy read. While the story has its flaws, it certainly held my interest and kept me reading to the very end.

Solutions....

2008-08-27T11:55:00.000+05:30

The Difference between Focusing on Problems and Focusing on Solutions

Case 1

When NASA began the launch of astronauts into space, they found out
that the pens wouldn't work at zero gravity
(ink won't flow down to the writing surface). To solve this problem,
it took them one decade and $12 million.
They developed a pen that worked at zero gravity, upside down,
underwater, in practically any surface including crystal
and in a temperature range from below freezing to over 300 degrees C.

And what did the Russians do...?? They used a pencil.

Case 2

One of the most memorable case studies on Japanese management was the
case of the empty soap box,
which happened in one of Japan's biggest cosmetics companies.
The company received a complaint that a consumer had bought a soap
box that was empty.
Immediately the authorities isolated the problem to the assembly
line,
which transported all the package! d boxes of soap to the delivery
department.
For some reason, one soap box went through the assembly line empty.
Management asked its engineers to solve the problem.

Post-haste, the engineers worked hard to devise an X-ray machine with
high-resolution monitors
manned by two people to watch all the soap boxes that passed through
the line to make sure they were not empty.
No doubt, they worked hard and they worked fast but they spent a
whoopee amount to do so.

But when a rank-and-file employee in a small company was posed with
the same problem, he did not get into complications of X-rays, etc.,
but instead came out with another solution. He bought a strong
industrial electric fan and
pointed it at the assembly line He switched the fan on, and as each
soap box passed the fan,
it simply blew the empty boxes out of the line.

Moral

Always look for simple solutions. Devise the simplest possible
solution that solves the problems

Customization using live-helper

2008-08-18T16:43:00.008+05:30

Linux live cd are very useful installation disks and rescue disks are the main application of the technologies used to make a live cd i am going to talk about how to make a debian linux live cd in this how-to i will cover how to use the application called live-helper first thing you need is a installation of debian it is best to use a debian sid host system to build the iso with live-helper using debian sid ensures that you have all the newest tools and the latest features fixes of live-helper to simplify this write-up i will assume you are using debian sid if you wish to use debian etch or lenny then you can set up apt pinning it will allow you to grab the newest packages for live-helper and all the dependencies so you can keep your precious stable system and still have the latest version of live-helper start off by updating the apt aptitude database and then upgrade any packages on your sid system to the newest possible version. I have used Qemu for running live CD

su apt-get update
apt-get upgrade

apt-get dist-upgrade
next tell apt to grab the latest live-helper

Add following line to 
deb http://live.debian.net/debian/ sid/snapshots main contrib non-free

/etc/apt/sources.list.

apt-get install live-helper

Basic Command for live-helper
- lh_config - creates the configuration file this is where you specify desktop architecture extra software include installer and so forth
- lh_build - command to start the build other important commands
- lh_clean --binary use this to clean things up before building another image using the same
- config lh_clean use this to clean things up before building another image when the config has changed
- lh_clean --purge use this to do a super-clean this will purge all packages from the cache some
- lh_config options
                -p specify a package list from usr share live-helper lists or specify your own file
--packages specify packages you want to include

પોતાના 'પ્રોજેક્ટ'ના બોજ હેઠળ દબાઇ જઇ રહીયો છે,
આ જુઓ એક સોફ્ટવેઅર એન્જીનિયર જઇ રહીયો છે…

જીંદગીથી હરેલો છે, પણ 'બગ'થી હાર નથી માનતો,
પોતાની 'એપ્લીકેશન'ની એક એક લીટી યાદ છે,

પણ આજે પગમાં ક્યા રંગના મોજા છે તે યાદ નથી,

દિવસ પર દિવસ એક 'એક્સેલ' ફાઇલ બનાવી રહીયો છે,

આ જુઓ એક સોફ્ટવેઅર એન્જીનિયર જઇ રહીયો છે…

દસ હજાર લીટીનાં 'કોડ'માં 'એરર' શોધી લે છે પણ, મજબૂર મીત્રોની આંખમાં આંસુ દેખાતા નથી,

'કોમ્પ્યુટર'માં હજારો 'વિન્ડો' છે, પણ દિલની બારી પર કોઇ દસ્તક સંભળાતી નથી,

શનિ-રવિ નહાતો નથી ને આખુ અઠવાડિયું નહાતો રહીયો છે,

આ જુઓ એક સોફ્ટવેઅર એન્જીનિયર જઇ રહીયો છે…

'કૉડીંગ' કરતા કરતા ખબર જ ના રહી, 'બગ'ની 'પ્રાયોરીટી' ક્યારે માતા-પિતા કરતા વધી ગઇ,

પુસ્તકોમાં ગુલાબ રાખવાવાળો 'સિગારેટ'ના ધુમાડામાં ખોવાઇ ગયો, દિલની જમીન પરથી ઇછ્છાઓની વિદાઇ થઇ ગઇ,

શનિ-રવિ પર દારુ પીયને મજા કરી રહીયો છે,

આ જુઓ એક સોફ્ટવેઅર એન્જીનિયર જઇ રહીયો છે…

મજા લેવી જ હોઇ જો એની તો પૂછી લો, પગાર વધારાની 'પાર્ટી' ક્યારે આપે છે?

ને મજાક ઉડાવવી હોઇ તો પૂછી લો, 'ઓન-સાઇટ' ક્યારે જઇ રહીયો છે?

આ જુઓ 'ઓન-સાઇટ' પરથી પછા ફરેલા સાથી-મિત્રની ચોકલેટ ખાઇ રહીયો છે,

આ જુઓ એક સોફ્ટવેઅર એન્જીનિયર જઇ રહીયો છે…

ખર્ચા વધી રહ્યા છે, વાળ ઓછા થઇ રહીયા છે,

KRAની તારીખ આવતી નથી ને 'ઇંકમ-ટેક્સ્'નો સિતમ થઇ રહીયો છે,

આ જુઓ પાછી 'બસ' છૂટી ગઇ ને 'રિક્શા'થી આવી રહીયો છે,

આ જુઓ એક સોફ્ટવેઅર એન્જીનિયર જઇ રહીયો છે…

'પીત્ઝા' ગળે નથી ઉતરતા તો સાથે 'કોક'ના ઘૂંટડા લઇ રહીયો છે,

'ઓફિસ'ની થાળી જોઇ મોઢુ બગાડે છે, માઁના હાથનું જમવાનું યાદ આવી રહીયુ છે,

સરસ ભેળ મળે છે છતાં મફતનો નાસ્તો ખાઇ રહીયો છે,

આ જુઓ એક સોફ્ટવેઅર એન્જીનિયર જઇ રહીયો છે…

તમે અત્યાર સુધી ઘણી લીધી હશે ચુંટકીઓ,

સોફ્ટવેઅર એન્જીનિયરના જીવનનું સત્ય બતાવતી આ છેલ્લી થોડી પંક્તિઓ,

હજારોના પગારવાળો 'કંપની'ના ખિસ્સામાં કરોડો ભરી રહિયો છે,

સોફ્ટવેઅર એન્જીનિયર એ જ બની શકે જે લોઢાનું કાળજુ રખતો હોઇ,

અમે લોકો જીવી જીવીને મરી રહીયા છીએ, જીંદગી છે કંઇક આવી,

એક 'ફોજી'ની નોકરી, એક સોફ્ટવેઅર એન્જીનિયરની નોકરી, બંને એક જેવી,

આ જુઓ એક સોફ્ટવેઅર એન્જીનિયર જઇ રહીયો છે…

Little girl and her father were crossing a bridge.
The father was kind of scared so he asked his little daughter,
"Sweetheart, please hold my hand so
that you don't fall into the river.
" The little girl said,
"No, Dad. You hold my hand.
" "What's the difference?"
Asked the puzzled father.
"There's a big difference,
" replied the little girl.
"If I hold your hand and something happens to me,chances are that I may let your hand go. But if you hold my hand, I know for sure that no matter what happens, you will never let my hand go.
" In any relationship, the essence of trust is not in its bind, but in its bond.

"So hold the hand of the person whom you love rather than expecting
them to hold urs... this story tells many things... u just need to understand
the meaning rest depends on u "

While a man was polishing his new car, his 4 yr old son picked stone & scratched lines on the side of the car.

In anger, the man took the child's hand & hit it many times, not realizing he was using a wrench.

At the hospital, the child lost all his fingers due to multiple fractures. When the child say his father.... with painful eyes he asked "Dad when will my fingers grow back?"

Man was so hurt and speechless. He went back to car and kicked it a lot of times.

Devastated by his own actions...... sitting in front of that car he looked at the scratches, child had written "LOVE YOU DAD".
The next day that man committed suicide. . .

Anger and Love has no limits, so let the river of life flow in Limits so that this fresh water stream is never scattered.

Netbeans Missing New Project Categories

2008-04-02T12:23:00.000+05:30

I started it and wanted to start a new project. What a surprise I have seen I could not. There were no menu items besides import existing ant project what I could reach. Holy s.... something! What is this? I was asking.
Tried to purge package and reinstall but no luck. So finally I concluded that the problem is around Netbeans 5.5. What can people do than? I have taken the lattes version Netbeans 6.0 and tried. Much more surprise I had the same situation. No menu to create new project. I started to think about some kind of global conspiracy and decided to unveil it so the day just turned darker.

Solution:
$ rm -rf ~/.netbeans/6.0/config/Modules

Simple right?
If you are missing New Project Templates in Netbeans and you have started netbeans ever with IcedTea Java 7 - or any other "unsupported one" - first use only SUN Java as long as this error is not corrected to run netbeans. I do not know if this is an error in Iced Tea Java or in Netbeans and do not care too much anymore. To correct the problem completely delete ~/.netbeans/6.0/config/Modules and restart Netbenas with a Sun Java. This directory will be recreated and you can enjoy the newly available menus without loosing your settings.
