How does jQuery .data() work?

I want to use .data() in my application. The examples are helpful, but I do not understand however where the values are stored.

I inspect the webpage with Firebug and as soon as .data() saves an object to a dom element, I do not see any change in Firebug (either HTML or Dom tabs).

I tried to look at jQuery source, but it is very advanced for my Javascript knowledge and I lost myself.

So the question is:

Where do the values stored by jQuery.data() actually go? Can I inspect/locate/list/debug them using a tool?

Graphical HTTP client for windows [closed]

I am looking for a Windows graphical utility for performing HTTP operations.

For example, I want to be able to say things like:

POST to http://example.org/test/service With a POST body: "Data goes here"

Does anyone know a good piece of software for doing this?

Rest clients for Java?

With JSR 311 and it's implementations we have a powerful standard for exposing Java objects via Rest. However on the client side there seems to be something missing that is comparable to Apache Axis for SOAP - something that hides the web service and marshals the data transparently back to Java objects.

How do you create Java RESTful clients? Using HTTPConnection and manual parsing of the result? Or specialized clients for e.g. Jersey or Apache CXR?

Rails: Get Client IP address

In Rails 2.3.2, what's the best way to get the ip address of the client connecting to the server?

Here are two ways I've found:

request.remote_ip
request.env['HTTP_X_REAL_IP']

Communicating with a socket.io server via c#

Is there a c# client that follows the socket.io protocol? I have a socket.io server that is communicating with a socket.io javascript client via a website, but i also need to connect a c# piece to it that can send and receive messages. Is there a clean way to do this currently or will I have to write my own client.

Where is the socket.io client library?

As far as I have seen, there is no explanation as to where we are to locate the client side script for socket.io if node.js is not used as the web server. I've found a whole directory of client side files, but I need them in a combined version (like it's served when using node.js webs servers). Any ideas?

What is the minimum client footprint required to connect C# to an Oracle database?

I have successfully connected to an Oracle database (10g) from C# (Visual Studio 2008) by downloading and installing the client administration tools and Visual Studio 2008 on my laptop.

The installation footprint for Oracle Client tools was over 200Mb, and quite long winded.

Does anyone know what the minimum workable footprint is? I am hoping that it's a single DLL and a register command, but I have the feeling I need to install an oracle home, and set various environment variables.

I am using Oracle.DataAccess in my code.

SVN Error: Expected fs format between '1' and '3'; found format '4'

Here's what I did, I have installed svnserve as a service and I started it with the net start svn service command. I typed svn ls svn://localhost to test the service but it returned the error as stated in the title of this post.

I entered svn --version and svnserve --version on my computer to find out the version numbers and the client and the server version is the same, version 1.5.6. I'm guessing the error appears due to different versions of the server and the client.

When I start the server using svnserve --daemon --root command in cmd, The error still appears.

Why does the error appear? Thanks

Is there any github client for Windows [closed]

Can someone advise any windows client for GitHub? I found the Tower client Mac (http://www.git-tower.com/) and seems it has very good integration with GitHub via API. Do you know any clients for windows with similar functionality?

Update Yes Thanks all for answers, I know about these three, but they only have integration with GIT, not GitHub. I mean some social features of GitHub, such as review of Incoming Request, comments for these Incoming Request, internal GitHub messaging support, possibility to create new repository on client, manage GitHub repository settings, and similiar features, subscribe to other repository and get notifications when they change. As I know, most of these feature available in GitHub API, but I can't found any windows client that use this API.

Does anyone know of an example of a RESTful client that follows the HATEOAS principle?

So by now I'm getting the point that we should all be implementing our RESTful services providing representations that enable clients to follow the HATEOAS principle. And whilst it all makes good sense in theory, I have been scouring the web to find a single good example of some client code that follows the idea strictly.

The more I read, the more I'm starting to feel like this is an academic discussion because no-one is actually doing it! People can moan all they like about the WS-* stack's many flaws but at least it is clear how to write clients: you can parse WSDL and generate code.

Now I understand that this should not be necessary with a good RESTful service: you should only need to know about the relationships and representations involved and you should be able to react dynamically to those. But even still, shouldn't this principle have been distilled and abstracted into some common libraries by now? Feed in information about the representations and relationships you might receive and get some more useful higher level code you can use in your application?

These are just half-baked ideas of mine really, but I'm just wary that if I dive in and write a properly RESTful API right now, no-one is actually going to be able to use it! Or at least using it is going to be such a pain in the behind because of the extra mile people will have to go writing glue code to interpret the relationships and representations I provide.

Can anyone shed any light on this from the client perspective? Can someone show an example of properly dynamic/reactive RESTful client code so that I can have an idea of the audience I'm actually writing for? (better still an example of a client API that provides some abstractions) Otherwise its all pretty theoretical....

[edit: note, I've found a similar question here, which I don't think was really answered, the author was palmed off with a Wikipedia stub!]

Java sending and receiving file (byte[]) over sockets

I am trying to develop a very simple client / server where the client converts a file to bytes, sends it to the server, and then converts the bytes back in to a file.

Currently the program just creates an empty file. I'm not a fantastic Java developer so any help much appreciated.

This is the server part that receives what the client sends.

ServerSocket serverSocket = null;

    serverSocket = new ServerSocket(4444);


    Socket socket = null;
    socket = serverSocket.accept();

    DataOutputStream out = new DataOutputStream(new BufferedOutputStream(socket.getOutputStream()));
    DataInputStream in = new DataInputStream(new BufferedInputStream(socket.getInputStream()));
    byte[] bytes = new byte[1024];

    in.read(bytes);
    System.out.println(bytes);

    FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream("C:\\test2.xml");
    fos.write(bytes);

And here is the client part

Socket socket = null;
    DataOutputStream out = null;
    DataInputStream in = null;
    String host = "127.0.0.1";     

    socket = new Socket(host, 4444);
    out = new DataOutputStream(new BufferedOutputStream(socket.getOutputStream()));
    in = new DataInputStream(new BufferedInputStream(socket.getInputStream()));

    File file = new File("C:\\test.xml");
    //InputStream is = new FileInputStream(file);
    // Get the size of the file
    long length = file.length();
    if (length > Integer.MAX_VALUE) {
        System.out.println("File is too large.");
    }
    byte[] bytes = new byte[(int) length];

    //out.write(bytes);
    System.out.println(bytes);

    out.close();
    in.close();
    socket.close();

Easy to use Git client for non-technical people? [closed]

My team consists of both software developers, business analysts, tech writers, and other non-technical people. We've started storing non-code artifacts (e.g. user manuals, technical documentation, reports, charts) in our Git repository. Our non-technical team members are having some trouble getting used to Git and its command line interface.

Our team uses OS X. I've tried different graphical Git clients, but they all focus on displaying project history instead of facilitating the overall work-commit-update workflow. (GitX has been the best so far.)

Does anyone know of any decent clients or tools to help non-technical people use Git?

JavaScript: indexOf vs. Match when Searching Strings?

Readability aside, are there any discernable differences (performance perhaps) between using

str.indexOf("src") 

and

str.match(/src/)

I personally prefer match (and regexp) but colleagues seem to go the other way. We were wondering if it mattered ...?

EDIT:

I should have said at the outset that this is for functions that will be doing partial plain-string matching (to pick up identifiers in class attributes for JQuery) rather than full regexp searches with wildcards etc.

class='redBorder DisablesGuiClass-2345-2d73-83hf-8293' 

So its the difference between:

string.indexOf('DisablesGuiClass-');

VS

string.match(/DisablesGuiClass-/)

Are there any good graphical Git and Hg/Mercurial clients on Mac OS X?

I'm searching for compelling Git and Mercurial clients on Mac OS X. The most clients I've found so far were less compelling as I expected. Some of the clients are programmed even in Ruby or Tcl/Tk, which IMO aren't good OS X citizens in regard of integration in the OS.

I have clients similar to Versions.app or Cornetstone in mind, which are Subversion-only clients. Perhaps somebody got an insider tip for me.
