WBAnalyzer

2011-04-15T11:23:00.002+02:00

WBAnalyzer is a tiny free gel analysis tool (application, app, program... whatever) to measure the band intensity in gel electrophoresis pictures.

Screenshot

How-To

To open an image go to File -> Open. I try to support as many image files as possible. Files that currently work are bmp, gif, png, jpg and tif.
Draw rectangles around the bands you wish to analyze (drag them from top left to bottom right).
To delete a rectangle / selection, select it in the list on the right and press delete (DEL).
You may zoom in and out on the image using the scroll wheel on the mouse or by pressing "M" and "N" on the keyboard.
To find the closest match to a band, select it in the list on the right, then go to Tools -> Find Similar. The most similar rectangle will get selected.

Collection was modified exception

2010-12-25T10:37:00.000+01:00

I saw some pretty strange solutions for this problem, most of all, ones which involve a "helper" list to store the items to remove... this of course is overkill (memory and cpu wise - think of collections with a million items ...)

Here's how to do it:

for (int i = pageList.Count; i-- > 0; )
{
    if (itemsToRemoveList.Contains(mainList[i]))
        mainList.RemoveAt(i);
}

Antonia Jane Chords

2010-12-19T15:30:00.000+01:00

Hello Everybody :-)

Maybe you know the canadian Rock-Band Lightning Dust... If not, I guess you've seen the great video on youtube where brian fallon of The Gaslight Anthem performs this song. If you don't know who Lightning Dust is, check them out and if you like it - also give Balck Mountain a try (Lightning Dust - Amber Webber and Joshua Wells - are both core members of this GREAT band).

Oukey, here are the chords (and I really, really hope there's not gonna be any whining about copyright shit. Music is art, art is culture and culture belongs to the society).

Support the artist: Go to the shows, buy your CD's there (and from Indie Labels).

Intro: Play around D

D
Did you ever come close to home?

Bm
Riding the tide of the silver line,

D
Maybe dress them up in ribbon and golds,

Bm
Never fall back into the one you love,

D
Pick pocket lady with her mind on you,

Bm
She'll break a million hearts until she makes it through,

    G            D       A
But I declare a war on you,

        D    A
Someday soon

D
Hiding with the border skies,

Bm
Lead down ditches on the side of the road,

D
Be careful you don't look to the sun,

Bm
Lazy head lions you'll get fed to the wolves,

D
So rally up the soldiers there's a war to win,

Bm
If hearts can't be alarmed I can't let em win,

    G                D        A
But I would give it all for you,

        D    A
Someday soon

        D    G
Someday soon

        D    A
Someday soon

D
Bury all the silver and gold, 

Bm
We can walk to the top and look down at it all,

D
What happens when the feelings gone?

Bm
It's a love angel with the wings cut off,

D
So the parents tell the children 'That's no way to live'

Bm
So we capture what we're after left of the rest of them,

  G                  D       A
Antonia Jane will rise again

If programming languages were music albums - Part 1

2010-11-25T11:31:00.000+01:00

Hey all you programming music fans out there. Yes, we (that is, programmers) are rockstars trapped in offices. I like to play the guitar or the piano while thinking on problems such as how to make that damn piece of code faster, better or obsolete. Later on, while writing the code, I really need to listen to some music. Now, what if my favourite albums were programming (or scripting) langauges? So here we go...

PHP
Ok, this one was really hard, since i have to choose an album I actually like, which I can't say about PHP. Well PHP got better over the time (Version 5 and up) but not like wine does. It kinda got less bad. While PHP may be ok to use for small projects hosted on a cheap (standard apache) server like personal websites or blogs, it should NEVER EVER be used for anything bigger. Code maintainability is a bitch. If you know what a binary tree is, I think you'd prefere an abacus over PHP.

So, which album does fit?

It's Stoner Witch by (the) Melvins. It was released in 1994. And like PHP you look at it and think, what the fuck. It's strange, doesn't seem to fit - there's grunge, metal and stoner rock and a dog.

I grabbed this album a few years back and didn't like it. But after some time it, like PHP, got less bad.

But as I said, my dislike of this language can't be described (productive) by any album I own.

Maybe some electro album would serve better. Fast, not deep and boring after two weeks. If someone has a better idea, just give it a comment.

C / C++
I really don't have to talk about those. They're here. They always have and always will, at least until quantum computing or what ever there will come and make those good old electrical transistors go away. Motörhead!

Mötrhead? Ace Of Spades! Yes, say what you want, it's the best album of Motörhead there is, was and ever will be. Just like C / C++, its hard, brute force and ugly. Not really ugly as in Visual Basic ugly. Since C / C++ is to Motörhead as Visual Basic is to a 59 year old, crack whore.

But it's so basic without bells and whistles, it's one step above assembler so you can dug your hands in and get dirty (well you could do this too with Visual Basic, but just not in a good way).

The same is Ace Of Spades, its beautiful trash, it's - I don't know - Tank Girl, beer in the morning and drunk sex.

Javascript
It will die with human civilization as we know it. Period. Javascript is woven into the Internet like veins thorugh a body. While any language which is bound to a technology you can actually grab or replace like microchips and harddrives, Javascript is the Internet. The Internet will live forever and so will Javascript.

London Calling by The Clash. Just as Javascript will stay and not go (hope you get the hint) so will this album. Charismatic, simple yet deep, emotional and easy.

Joe Strummer will live forever.

Stay tuned for part 2.

C# selective clone with a generic extension method

2010-07-19T00:10:00.000+02:00

Hey guys, ever had to clone an object - but only duplicate the properties you actually needed. Or maybe you don't want to copy the id property... Something like that, well then take a look at this.

public static class ObjectExtensions
{
 public static T SelectiveClone(this Object obj, string[] properties)
  where T: new()
 {
  T temp = new T();
  PropertyInfo[] propertyInfos = typeof(T).GetProperties();
  foreach (PropertyInfo pi in propertyInfos)
  {
   if(properties.Contains(pi.Name))
    pi.SetValue(temp, pi.GetValue(obj, null), null);
  }

  return temp;
 }
}

Well you can then do something like the following.

/* 
 Product is a class with the properties
 "title", "titleAlias", "subTitle", "description", 
 "price", "stock" and "id"
 "original" is an existing object of the class Product
*/

// The following copies all properties except "id"
Product product = original.SelectiveClone(new string[] {
 "title", "titleAlias", "subTitle", "description", "price", "stock"
});

Silverlight 4: Bye bye ControlParameter

2010-07-09T10:51:00.000+02:00

If you've been using Silverlight 4 and some of its ria stuff, you may have noticed that the ControlParameter has gone missing. Actually it has gone for good - and that's a good thing.

ControlParameter was a misfit, why? Look at the following (old) code:

<riaData:ControlParameter ParameterName="title"
                             ControlName="filterTextBox"
                             PropertyName="Text" />

Now there's no databinding, and that most certainly isn't the (new) .NET way. Check out below how it should look now, with Silverlight 4. Here we doe some data filtering with DomainDataSource.FilterDescriptor.

<riaControls:DomainDataSource Name="ExampleSource" QueryName="GetExampleQuery" AutoLoad="True">
<riaControls:DomainDataSource.FilterDescriptors>
<riaControls:FilterDescriptor PropertyPath="title"
Operator="Contains" Value="{Binding Text, ElementName=filterTextBox}">
</riaControls:FilterDescriptor>
</riaControls:DomainDataSource.FilterDescriptors>
<riaControls:DomainDataSource.DomainContext>
<domain:ExampleDataContext />
</riaControls:DomainDataSource.DomainContext>
</riaControls:DomainDataSource>

See, everything is well now. :-)

An UI Framework for (the front-end) of Websites

2010-07-08T14:40:00.000+02:00

There are many nice User Interface Frameworks for the Web. Some of the are made for Java (and they do a pretty good job of deuglifying it - at least for the user) but most of them can be used for every architecture, because they base solely on JavaScript (and / or JavaScript Frameworks like JQuery, MooTools, etc.) and CSS. Here's a list of a few of them.

While those Libraries are all very good and contain lots of widgets and other nice things - they are also big, hard to (learn to) use and did I say big? They are huge!

If you're designing a CMS backend or an enterprise intranet solution you just have to use one of them. But if you're "just" designing a "mid-range" website and you just like to provide a little more User Experience, those framworks / libraries are just overkill.

Now, whats the first thing you need if you start to build a website (from scratch)? A nice layout. Now there are a few options... you could spend some time building a CSS based cross-browser layout, you could just slam in a table or you could use a CSS framework. There are some very interesting, grid based CSS Frameworks. My favourite is blueprint - there are others, just do a google for "css frameworks".

Now long story short - i slammed together a little, let's say, website template, or website starter kit. This template (or kit) contains my micro ui widgets for jquery and a modified blueprint css framework.

Check a demo out here.

Now keep in mind: This is a work in progress and I'm creating this template for my own use (as well as for anyone's who likes it).

Download the package here.

Now run along and create a beautiful website!

Silverlight 4: Drag and drop from desktop or image

2010-07-02T14:23:00.000+02:00

Ok, Silverlight 4 is here and everyone's very happy and excited (well.. I think it's just more fun now to use Silverlight - especially with the nice toolkit, which can be found on codeplex). Yesterday I tried one of the new features and wow, it was pretty easy to implement drag and drop for Silverlight 4 applications.

So let's say you got a Listbox, like the following one

<ListBox x:Name="myListBox" />

Now you have to add e few things:

Allow Drop with AllowTrop="True"
An eventhandler for the Drop event
And finally if you want eventhandlers for DragEnter and DragLeave

The whole thing should look like the following

<ListBox Name="myListBox" 
         AllowDrop="True" 
         Drop="myListBox_Drop" 
         DragEnter="myListBox_DragEnter" 
         DragLeave="myListBox_DragLeave" />

Lets talk about the "Drop" event for a moment. Drop supplies the event handler with the arguments from DragEventArgs: Take a look at it on MSDN. Here's how I handle the event

private void myListBox_Drop(object sender, DragEventArgs e)
{
 FileInfo[] droppedFiles = e.Data.GetData(DataFormats.FileDrop) as FileInfo[];

 for (int i = 0; i < droppedFiles.Length; i++)
 {
  this.myListBox.Items.Add(droppedFiles[i].Name);
                /* you have to access the data in the listbox via droppedFiles[i].OpenRead()
                   things like File.OpenRead(droppedFiles[i].FullName) won't work because
                   of the Silverlight 4 security model */
 }

 e.Handled = true;
}

Additionally you can use the DragEnter and DragLeave event to alert the user, that dragged files can be dropped on the object - just change the background colour or something like that (a border is quite nice as well).

MicroGallery

2010-07-01T11:30:00.000+02:00

MicroGallery is one of the smallest (800 bytes) gallery plugins around. There are no fancy animations (as if one's watching pictures of products, one doesn't want to wait for them to fade in, slide down or whatever ...).

What MicroGallery does is:

Showing thumbnails
Letting the user click on the thumbnails
Showing the clicked thumbnail in a bigger size
The 'target-element' in which the big pictures will be shown can be chosen, so you'll be able to change the background-image of any element.

Ugly java UI of the month: June

2010-06-23T17:11:00.000+02:00

Remember Azureus? This nice BitTorrent client has been there long before my current favourite uTorrent (you should get uTorrent, it's small, easy to use and quite well coded). Like all good things Azureus came to an end when they renamed it to Vuze, bloated it with stuff no one (at least I hope no one) uses and made Shitware out of it. Now it has an integrated high def (wow) player and shitty rss stuff. For $24.99 it even comes with DVD bruning and built-in antivirus protection. WHAT A PIECE OF SHIT.

But that's not the worst of it, because features can be turned off (at least I hope one can turn of Built-In antivirus protection, since wow.. I already have anti-virus software installed). No, the worst thing is the fugly User Interface. The UI of Vuze literally looks like Apple puked all over it. Or maybe Azureus got drunk and met iTunes in a dark backyard.

Just look at it, doesn't this remind you of ugly iTunes? Well I wont get into iTunes now, because it's the worst Shitware out there. But why do UI designers like this lame iTunes style that much? I don't know... maybe because they don't get screwed by Apple like developers do. iTunes and Vuze kinda look like Pampers meets a drunk bum-version of the guy who designs CD covers for MUSE.

Bullshit.

MicroModal

2010-06-20T19:55:00.000+02:00

INFO: Take a look at my microUI website template. It contains the newest version of MicroModal and lots of other nice goodies!

MicroModal can be used to display a modal window on click. Useful scenarios include: "Are you sure you want to ...?", "Please enter ...!", and so on.

This isn't one of those huge modal scripts with CSS files and fancy graphics - if you want it fancy, use (or wait for) CSS3. This solution is fat-free.

Demonstration
Check out the demonstration here.

Example
The JavaScript

$('.micromodal').microModal({
    autoPositioning: true, // set true if you wish to center the modal window (default: true)
    overlay: {
        show: true,        // set true if you wish to how an overlay (default: true)
        color: '#fff',     // set the colour of the overlay (default: '#fff')
        opacity: 0.8       // set the opacity of the overlay (default: 0.8)
    }
});

The Html

<button class="micromodal target-changecolor">Let's change the background colour!</button>
  
<div id="changecolor" class="dialog">
 Do you really want to do this?
 <br /><br />
 <button onclick="$.fn.microModal.dialogs['#changecolor'].close();">No way!</button>
 <button onclick="$('body').css('background-color', '#fedcba');$.fn.microModal.dialogs['#changecolor'].close();">Sure</button>

Drag and Drop files from WPF ListViews to the Desktop / Windows Explorer

2010-06-15T11:45:00.001+02:00

Hey guys, this morning (yeah, beginning 7.00) I tried to implement what seemed to be quite an easy task: Dragging files out of my app onto the desktop or into an open explorer Window.

It’s not quite easy. So let’s start this small tutorial. First (of course) you create an ListView – let’s call it “FileView”.

<ListView x:Name="FileView" 
          PreviewMouseLeftButtonDown="FileView_PreviewMouseLeftButtonDown"
          MouseMove="FileView_MouseMove">
    <ListView.View>
        <GridView>
            <!-- Put in here whatever you need -->
            <GridViewColumn Header="Name" CellTemplate="{StaticResource file}" />
        </GridView>
    </ListView.View>
</ListView>

Now to the code behind the xaml. You might have noticed that I added two events to the ListView. The PreviewMouseLeftButtonDown (the dragging starts) and the MouseMove (the dragging is happening).

private Point start;

private void FileView_PreviewMouseLeftButtonDown(object sender, MouseButtonEventArgs e)
{
	this.start = e.GetPosition(null);
}

private void FileView_MouseMove(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
{
	Point mpos = e.GetPosition(null);
	Vector diff = this.start - mpos;

	if (e.LeftButton == MouseButtonState.Pressed &&
		Math.Abs(diff.X) > SystemParameters.MinimumHorizontalDragDistance &&
		Math.Abs(diff.Y) > SystemParameters.MinimumVerticalDragDistance)
	{
		if (this.FileView.SelectedItems.Count == 0)
		{
			return;
		}
		
		// right about here you get the file urls of the selected items.
		// should be quite easy, if not, ask.
		//string[] files = ...;
		string dataFormat = DataFormats.FileDrop;
		DataObject dataObject = new DataObject(dataFormat, files);
		DragDrop.DoDragDrop(this.FileView, dataObject, DragDropEffects.Copy);
	}
}

Now that’s that, thanks for reading.

A StringBuilder for JavaScript

2010-06-10T21:23:00.000+02:00

I am currently working on making some cool .net framework classes / functionality available with JavaScipt. When I'm done, there will be a nice js# framework ready for download (my goal is to keep it under 10kb compressed).

Well the first part I did is something I find myself frequently missing when coding with JavaScript: A StringBuilder. When working on a web project, there are loads of occasions which scream for such a nice class. So here we go, the source code:

// =============================================================================
// System.Text.StringBuilder
// =============================================================================
// Implements a StringBuilder.
// Differs from C#! Capacity and Length properties have been removed.
// Prepend has been added.
var StringBuilder = function(string) {
 var _str = (string == null) ? '' : string;
 // Appends a string to the stringbuilders internal string.
 this.append = function(string) {
  _str += string;
 };
 // Appends a formatted string to the stringbuilders internal string.
 this.appendFormat = function(string, array) {
  for(var i = 0; i < array.length; i++) {
   string = string.replace('{' + i + '}', array[i]);
  }
  _str += string;
 };
 // Inserts a string at a specified position inside a stringbuilders internal string.
 this.insert = function(string, position) {
  _str = _str.slice(0, position) + string + _str.slice(position, _str.length);
 };
 // Removes a substring of the stringbuilders internal string.
 this.remove = function(start, end) {
  _str = _str.slice(0, start) + _str.slice(end, _str.length);
 };
 // Replaces any substring inside the stringbuilders internal string.
 // Replaces any substring inside the stringbuilders internal string with ''.
 this.replace = function(oldValue, newValue) {
  newValue = (newValue == null) ? '' : newValue;
  while(_str.indexOf(oldValue) > -1) {
   _str = _str.replace(oldValue, newValue);
  }
 };
 // Returns the strinbuilders internal string.
 this.toString = function() {
  return _str;
 };
};

Well thats that, here's the HTML documentation. Question? Ideas? Comment!

System.Text.StringBuilder
