HowTo: make raw_input & input work the same in both Python 2 and 3
10 Ιουλίου 20 04:00 πμ | Μπιρμπίλης Γεώργιος | 0 σχόλια   

Was just trying to make a Python 2 script work in Python 3 and at first it seemed I just needed a small change to add missing parentheses to the argument of a couple of print statements. But then another issue came up, it wasn’t understanding the command raw_input(somePrompt) that was occuring at various places […]

Getting resulting SQL string from parametric ADO.net SqlCommand
19 Σεπτεμβρίου 18 07:18 μμ | Μπιρμπίλης Γεώργιος | 0 σχόλια   

Microsoft is suggesting to always use Named parameters with SqlCommands for security reasons (to avoid SQL injection exploits), but they haven’t thought of providing a property at SqlCommand to give you back the result SQL so that you can have your app log it without resorting to SQL Server for that logging. Found a solution […]

HowTo: Install Skype desktop on Windows 10 (for older webcams)
22 Μαρτίου 18 02:05 μμ | Μπιρμπίλης Γεώργιος | 0 σχόλια   

On Windows 10, Microsoft (they’ve acquired Skype some years ago) provide a Windows Store app for Skype, however Universal Windows Platform (UWP) apps like that one don’t support older webcams (even the ones embedded in not-that-old laptops). Unfortunately, Microsoft hasn’t bothered to provide some frame grabber driver to bridge with DirectShow-based etc. older webcams that […]

Workarround: IE11 changing download file extension to .zip
21 Φεβρουαρίου 18 11:43 πμ | Μπιρμπίλης Γεώργιος | 0 σχόλια   

At ClipFlair Gallery, apart from opening a ClipFlair activity in ClipFlair Studio, downloading of an activity (.clipflair) file is also supported. However, because the component serialization file format of ClipFlair Studio is XML plus media assets packed in .zip archive (with nesting allowed, where components and whole activities can be placed in other activities), Internet […]

HowTo: Open page from Internet Explorer (Metro) app into desktop IE
20 Απριλίου 15 11:03 μμ | Μπιρμπίλης Γεώργιος | 0 σχόλια   

The Windows 8/8.1 app version of Internet Explorer is also known as IE Metro because of the “Metro” codename (inspired by navigation signs in public transport] of the Modern UI design language promoted by Microsoft). However that version isn’t the full Internet Explorer, in that it is unfortunately not supporting extensibility via plugins in the […]

Fix: Hypelinks not clickable in RichTextBox under Silverlight
07 Σεπτεμβρίου 14 04:18 πμ | Μπιρμπίλης Γεώργιος | 0 σχόλια   

Just fixed a nasty bug in ClipFlair Studio (http://studio.clipflair.net), where one couldn’t click hyperlinks in the Text component when set at ReadOnly mode. In that mode hyperlinks should open up new web pages (in Edit mode you can edit/remove them only of course), but instead when clicked they would show something like a focus rectangle […]

HowTo: Tell IE to use compatibility mode without editing your web pages
22 Αυγούστου 14 07:07 μμ | Μπιρμπίλης Γεώργιος | 0 σχόλια   

at http://www.mono-software.com/Mono/Pages/Discussion/dtopic/_YyUBIlx5kiqHaNqAQeltg/br-brake-bug-in-IE11-and-clipflair-text-editor/ one reads: We are using Telerik’s rich text editor (RadEditor), and it seems that RadEditor has specific behaviour regarding insertion of break tags. To circumvent this issue please try to add host header in ISS 7 (website level): Name = "X-UA-Compatible" Value = "IE=EmulateIE10" Or, you can insert Html Meta tag on a […]

Gotcha: Silverlight’s Uri class constructor eats up part after last slash
22 Ιουλίου 12 10:54 μμ | Μπιρμπίλης Γεώργιος | 0 σχόλια   

Via trial and error, I recently found out that when creating a Uri combining another Uri and a suffix part (tried at Silverlight, but I guess it’s a .NET issue in general), it eats up the last part of the (first) Uri if it doesn’t end with "/". That is, if you combine http://test.com/a with [...]
