These are relatively cheap mechanisms for possibly solving the problem: 1. Keep an eye on my heap corruption question - I'm updating with the answers as they shake out.

One interesting way is to maintain a stack, and only merge if the list on the stack has the same number of elements, and otherwise push the list, until you run out of elements in the incoming list, and then merge up the stack.

Visual Studio 2005 has the Script Explorer (under the Debug > Windows menu). It shows a tree of all the scripted stuff that's currently debuggable. Previously I was breaking into the debugger via IE's View > Script Debugger menu, but I'm finding the Script Explorer is a quicker way to get to what I want.

Well of course you can always extract the top-level elements (whether this is the granularity you want is up to you). In C#, you'd use the XmlDocument class.

It would read the entire file at once. In my experience, though, if you're just reading the file, doing some processing (i.e., breaking it up) and then continuing on with your work, the XmlDocument is going to go through it's create/read/collect cycle so quickly that it likely won't matter. Of course, that depends on ...

You need to use an [ifstream](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/io/basic_ifstream) if you just want to read (use an `ofstream` to write, or an `fstream` for both). To open a file in text mode, do the following: ``` ifstream in("filename.ext", ios_base::in); // the in flag is optional ``` To open a file in binary mod...

How do I set up SVN to email a distribution list on each commit? I'm running clients on Windows and the Apache Subversion server on Linux. The answers below for various platfor...

No you cannot get the MAC address in JavaScript, mainly because the MAC address uniquely identifies the running computer so it would be a security vulnerability. Now if all you need is a unique identifier, I suggest you create one yourself using some cryptographic algorithm and store it in a cookie. If you really nee...

The main thing that I've seen with regards to complaints about Active Record is that when you create a model around a table, and you select several instances of the model, you're basically doing a "select * from ...". This is fine for editing a record or displaying a record, but if you want to, say, display a list of t...

I'm importing some data from a `CSV` file, and numbers that are larger than `1000` get turned into `1,100` etc. What's a good way to remove both the quotes and the comma from this so I can put it into an `int` field? The data is actually already in a MySQL table, so I need to be able to this using SQL. Sorry for ...

You use the [post-commit hooks](http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.7/svn.reposadmin.create.html#svn.reposadmin.create.hooks). Here's a sample Ruby script that sends an email after each commit: [commit-email.rb](http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/subversion/trunk/tools/hook-scripts/commit-email.rb)

You could use this perl command. ``` Perl -lne 's/[,|"]//; print' file.txt > newfile.txt ``` You may need to play around with it a bit, but it should do the trick.

The problem that I see with Active Records is, that it's always just about table. That's okay, as long as you really work with just that one table, but when you work with data in most cases you'll have some kind of join somewhere.

When using IE, you cannot put an absolutely positioned div over a select input element. That's because the select element is considered an ActiveX object and is on top of every HTML element in the page. I already saw people hiding selects when opening a popup div, that leads to pretty bad user experience having contro...

I think validation is a good litmus test of whether you've done things properly, so if there are only a few minor problems, why not fix them and ensure your site will at least be understood correctly by browsers in the future (even if they do render things differently for other reasons)? OTOH, for most projects, valid...
