MOLL FLANDERS A film review by Scott Renshaw Copyright 1996 Scott Renshaw
(MGM) Starring: Robin Wright, Morgan Freeman, Stockard Channing, John Lynch, Aisling Corcoran. Screenplay: Pen Densham. Producers: Pen Densham, Richard B. Lewis, John Watson. Director: Pen Densham. Reviewed by Scott Renshaw.
If you're looking for a textbook example of counter-programming, you would have to say that MGM's release of MOLL FLANDERS qualifies...either that, or a textbook example of complete stupidity. June is supposed to be the exclusive domain of sequels, special effects and super-stars; films based on period novels are not supposed to appear until the kids are back in school, the leaves have changed colors and the air is heady with Oscar talk. Nevertheless, here we have a romance with English accents taking on Cruise, Connery and Carrey. It's a risky move, but one which could pay off, because MOLL FLANDERS is a solid drama with a top-notch cast, and gives Robin Wright a break-out role to show off her talents.
The film, based on Daniel Defoe's novel, opens with a man named Hibble (Morgan Freeman) showing up at a London orphanage to collect a young girl named Flora (Aisling Corcoran). Hibble tells the girl that he knew her mother, and begins to read to her from the woman's memoir as they make their way to their destination. It tells of Moll Flanders (Robin Wright), the daughter of a woman hung for thievery just after her birth, raised by nuns in a foundling's home. When she runs away from the home, she is taken in first by a society family, and then by the bold and cruel Mrs. Allworthy (Stockard Channing). She soon discovers that Mrs. Allworthy runs a brothel, and eventually joins the profession herself, subsequently sinking into alcoholism. But when an impoverished artist (John Lynch) takes Moll in to be a model, she slowly begins to recover her sense of self, and to learn about true love.
Pen Densham oversees a marvelous look for the production of MOLL FLANDERS, and that look helps to make a fitful first half easier to take. Densham's screenplay often seems in too big a hurry to race through Moll's early life and get her to Mrs. Allworthy's, and he doesn't always allow the significance of certain events to become clear. The greatest charms in that first half are provided by Freeman and Corcoran, who share some frisky scenes as the no-nonsense manservant and his mischievous charge; those scenes provide welcome comic relief. Making your way through MOLL FLANDERS can be like the experience of reading the novel in a high school English class -- the early exposition can lose you before you get to the meat of the story.
I would hope that such is not the case, because MOLL FLANDERS becomes an extremely effective and satisfying love story, and because even in that sluggish first hour Robin Wright turns in a wonderful performance. Despite her delicate features, Wright can make herself appear amazingly solid and determined, and that is a critical facet of the personality she is trying to convey. This is a story about the inner strength of a woman who struggles against the life to which she was born towards her vision of the life she believes she deserves, and Wright makes that journey as touching as it is painful. She has a superb partner in John Lynch, who provides gently shaded work as the frustrated artist-cum-scientist whose search for the ability to commit a soul to canvas helps Moll to re-discover her own soul. There is a completely natural chemistry between them, and their relationship makes the second half of MOLL FLANDERS something special.
Densham's erratic sense of pacing does undercut the love story somewhat, as MOLL FLANDERS never quite achieves the big, cathartic emotional moments one expects from a story of this kind. I think that he also doesn't allow Freeman or Stockard Channing to do the best work of which they are capable. Freeman may be the best American screen actor of the moment, but he never quite finds the character of the emotionally enslaved Hibble, and Channing similarly wavers between a kind of one-dimensional Victorian villainy and a kinder, gentler side. By driving his story towards the relationship between Moll and the artist, Densham has sacrificed certain aspects of the story, but he makes that sacrifice pay off. What really makes MOLL FLANDERS work, in a way that the recent JANE EYRE didn't, is that Densham maintains a fundamental sense of optimism and energy, relegating the sense of loss and foreboding which could have dominated the story to a secondary status. MOLL FLANDERS is a redemption story, and it is an effective one. It is also a human story, and that alone may help it to stand out while every theater around it reverberates with tornadoes and explosions.

Abstract: We suggest a generation task that integrates discourse-level referring expression generation and sentence-level surface realization. We present a data set of German articles annotated with deep syntax and referents, including some types of implicit referents. Our experiments compare several architectures varying the order of a set of trainable modules. The results suggest that a revision-based pipeline, with intermediate linearization, significantly outperforms standard pipelines or a parallel architecture.

- Bitmap fonts
- TTF fonts
These functions are declared in the following header file. Link with allegro_font.
#include <allegro5/allegro_font.h>
General font routines
ALLEGRO_FONT
typedef struct ALLEGRO_FONT ALLEGRO_FONT;
A handle identifying any kind of font. Usually you will create it with al_load_font which supports loading all kinds of TrueType fonts supported by the FreeType library. If you instead pass the filename of a bitmap file, it will be loaded with al_load_bitmap and a font in Allegro's bitmap font format will be created from it with al_grab_font_from_bitmap.
al_init_font_addon
void al_init_font_addon(void)
Initialise the font addon.
Note that if you intend to load bitmap fonts, you will need to initialise allegro_image separately (unless you are using another library to load images).
 This is done automatically at program exit, but can be called any time the user wishes as well.
See also: al_init_font_addon
al_load_font
ALLEGRO_FONT *al_load_font(char const *filename, int size, int flags)
Loads a font from disk. This will use al_load_bitmap_font if you pass the name of a known bitmap format, or else al_load_ttf_font.
Bitmap and TTF fonts are affected by the current bitmap flags at the time the font is loaded.
See also: al_destroy_font, al_init_font_addon, al_register_font_loader
al_destroy_font
void al_destroy_font(ALLEGRO_FONT *f)
Frees the memory being used by a font structure. Does nothing if passed NULL.
See also: al_load_font
al_register_font_loader
bool al_register_font_loader(char const *extension,
ALLEGRO_FONT *(*load_font)(char const *filename, int size, int flags))
Informs Allegro of a new font file type, telling it how to load files of this format.
The extension should include the leading dot ('.') character. It will be matched case-insensitively.
The load_font
argument may be NULL to unregister an entry.
Returns true on success, false on error. Returns false if unregistering an entry that doesn't exist.
See also: al_init_font_addon
al_get_font_line_height
int al_get_font_line_height(const ALLEGRO_FONT *f)
Returns the usual height of a line of text in the specified font. For bitmap fonts this is simply the height of all glyph bitmaps. For truetype fonts it is whatever the font file specifies. In particular, some special glyphs may be higher than the height returned here.
If the X is the position you specify to draw text, the meaning of ascent and descent and the line height is like in the figure below.
X------------------------
/\ | |
/ \ | |
/____\ ascent |
/ \ | |
/ \ | height
---------------- |
| |
descent |
| |
-------------------------
See also: al_get_text_width, al_get_text_dimensions
al_get_font_ascent
int al_get_font_ascent(const ALLEGRO_FONT *f)
Returns the ascent of the specified font.
See also: al_get_font_descent, al_get_font_line_height
al_get_font_descent
int al_get_font_descent(const ALLEGRO_FONT *f)
Returns the descent of the specified font.
See also: al_get_font_ascent, al_get_font_line_height
al_get_text_width
int al_get_text_width(const ALLEGRO_FONT *f, const char *str)
Calculates the length of a string in a particular font, in pixels.
See also: al_get_ustr_width, al_get_font_line_height, al_get_text_dimensions
al_get_ustr_width
int al_get_ustr_width(const ALLEGRO_FONT *f, ALLEGRO_USTR const *ustr)
Like al_get_text_width but expects an ALLEGRO_USTR.
See also: al_get_text_width, al_get_ustr_dimensions
al_draw_text
void al_draw_text(const ALLEGRO_FONT *font,
ALLEGRO_COLOR color, float x, float y, int flags,
char const *text)
Writes the NUL-terminated string text
onto bmp
at position x
, y
, using the specified font
.
The flags
parameter can be 0 or one of the following flags:
- ALLEGRO_ALIGN_LEFT - Draw the text left-aligned (same as 0).
- ALLEGRO_ALIGN_CENTRE - Draw the text centered around the given position.
- ALLEGRO_ALIGN_RIGHT - Draw the text right-aligned to the given position.
It can also be combined with this flag:
- ALLEGRO_ALIGN_INTEGER - Always draw text aligned to an integer pixel position. This is formerly the default behaviour. Since: 5.0.8, 5.1.4
See also: al_draw_ustr, al_draw_textf, al_draw_justified_text
al_draw_ustr
void al_draw_ustr(const ALLEGRO_FONT *font,
ALLEGRO_COLOR color, float x, float y, int flags,
const ALLEGRO_USTR *ustr)
Like al_draw_text, except the text is passed as an ALLEGRO_USTR instead of a NUL-terminated char array.
See also: al_draw_text, al_draw_justified_ustr
al_draw_justified_text
void al_draw_justified_text(const ALLEGRO_FONT *font,
ALLEGRO_COLOR color, float x1, float x2,
float y, float diff, int flags, const char *text)
Like al_draw_text, but justifies the string to the region x1-x2.
The diff parameter is the maximum amount of horizontal space to allow between words. If justisfying the text would exceed diff pixels, or the string contains less than two words, then the string will be drawn left aligned.
The flags
parameter can be 0 or one of the following flags:
- ALLEGRO_ALIGN_INTEGER - Draw text aligned to integer pixel positions. Since: 5.0.8, 5.1.5
See also: al_draw_justified_textf, al_draw_justified_ustr
al_draw_justified_ustr
void al_draw_justified_ustr(const ALLEGRO_FONT *font,
ALLEGRO_COLOR color, float x1, float x2,
float y, float diff, int flags, const ALLEGRO_USTR *ustr)
Like al_draw_justified_text, except the text is passed as an ALLEGRO_USTR instead of a NUL-terminated char array.
See also: al_draw_justified_text, al_draw_justified_textf.
al_draw_textf
void al_draw_textf(const ALLEGRO_FONT *font, ALLEGRO_COLOR color,
float x, float y, int flags,
const char *format, ...)
Formatted text output, using a printf() style format string. All parameters have the same meaning as with al_draw_text otherwise.
See also: al_draw_text, al_draw_ustr
al_draw_justified_textf
void al_draw_justified_textf(const ALLEGRO_FONT *f,
ALLEGRO_COLOR color, float x1, float x2, float y,
float diff, int flags, const char *format, ...)
Formatted text output, using a printf() style format string. All parameters have the same meaning as with al_draw_justified_text otherwise.
See also: al_draw_justified_text, al_draw_justified_ustr.
al_get_text_dimensions
void al_get_text_dimensions(const ALLEGRO_FONT *f,
char const *text,
int *bbx, int *bby, int *bbw, int *bbh)
Sometimes, the al_get_text_width and al_get_font_line_height functions are not enough for exact text placement, so this function returns some additional information.
Returned variables (all in pixel):
- x, y - Offset to upper left corner of bounding box.
- w, h - Dimensions of bounding box.
Note that glyphs may go to the left and upwards of the X, in which case x and y will have negative values.
See also: al_get_text_width, al_get_font_line_height, al_get_ustr_dimensions
al_get_ustr_dimensions
void al_get_ustr_dimensions(const ALLEGRO_FONT *f,
ALLEGRO_USTR const *ustr,
int *bbx, int *bby, int *bbw, int *bbh)
Sometimes, the al_get_ustr_width and al_get_font_line_height functions are not enough for exact text placement, so this function returns some additional information.
See also: al_get_text_dimensions
al_get_allegro_font_version
uint32_t al_get_allegro_font_version(void)
Returns the (compiled) version of the addon, in the same format as al_get_allegro_version.
Bitmap fonts
al_grab_font_from_bitmap
ALLEGRO_FONT *al_grab_font_from_bitmap(ALLEGRO_BITMAP *bmp,
int ranges_n, const int ranges[])
Creates a new font from an Allegro bitmap. You can delete the bitmap after the function returns as the font will contain a copy for itself.
Parameters:
- bmp: The bitmap with the glyphs drawn onto it
- n: Number of unicode ranges in the bitmap.
- ranges: 'n' pairs of first and last unicode point to map glyphs to for each range.
The bitmap format is as in the following example, which contains three glyphs for 1, 2 and 3.
.............
. 1 .222.333.
. 1 . 2. 3.
. 1 .222.333.
. 1 .2 . 3.
. 1 .222.333.
.............
In the above illustration, the dot is for pixels having the background color. It is determined by the color of the top left pixel in the bitmap. There should be a border of at least 1 pixel with this color to the bitmap edge and between all glyphs.
Each glyph is inside a rectangle of pixels not containing the background color. The height of all glyph rectangles should be the same, but the width can vary.
The placement of the rectangles does not matter, except that glyphs are scanned from left to right and top to bottom to match them to the specified unicode codepoints.
The glyphs will simply be drawn using al_draw_bitmap, so usually you will want the rectangles filled with full transparency and the glyphs drawn in opaque white.
Examples:
int ranges[] = {32, 126};
al_grab_font_from_bitmap(bitmap, 1, ranges)
int ranges[] = {
0x0020, 0x007F, /* ASCII */
0x00A1, 0x00FF, /* Latin 1 */
0x0100, 0x017F, /* Extended-A */
0x20AC, 0x20AC}; /* Euro */
al_grab_font_from_bitmap(bitmap, 4, ranges)
The first example will grab glyphs for the 95 standard printable ASCII characters, beginning with the space character (32) and ending with the tilde character (126). The second example will map the first 96 glyphs found in the bitmap to ASCII range, the next 95 glyphs to Latin 1, the next 128 glyphs to Extended-A, and the last glyph to the Euro character. (This is just the characters found in the Allegro 4 font.)

al_load_bitmap_font
ALLEGRO_FONT *al_load_bitmap_font(const char *fname)
Load a bitmap font from. It does this by first calling al_load_bitmap and then al_grab_font_from_bitmap. If you want to for example load an old A4 font, you could load the bitmap yourself, then call al_convert_mask_to_alpha on it and only then pass it to al_grab_font_from_bitmap.
al_create_builtin_font
ALLEGRO_FONT *al_create_builtin_font(void)
Creates a monochrome bitmap font (8x8 pixels per character).
This font is primarily intended to be used for displaying information in environments or during early runtime states where no external font data is available or loaded (e.g. for debugging).
The builtin font contains the following unicode character ranges:
0x0020 to 0x007F (ASCII)
0x00A1 to 0x00FF (Latin 1)
0x0100 to 0x017F (Extended A)
0x20AC to 0x20AC (euro currency symbol)
Returns NULL on an error.
The font memory must be freed the same way as for any other font, using al_destroy_font.
Since: 5.0.8, 5.1.3
See also: al_load_bitmap_font, al_destroy_font
TTF fonts
These functions are declared in the following header file. Link with allegro_ttf.
#include <allegro5/allegro_ttf.h>
al_init_ttf_addon
bool al_init_ttf_addon(void)
Call this after al_init_font_addon to make al_load_font recognize ".ttf" and other formats supported by al_load_ttf_font.
al_shutdown_ttf_addon
void al_shutdown_ttf_addon(void)
Unloads the ttf addon again. You normally don't need to call this.
al_load_ttf_font
ALLEGRO_FONT *al_load_ttf_font(char const *filename, int size, int flags)
Loads a TrueType font from a file using the FreeType library. Quoting from the FreeType FAQ this means support for many different font formats:
TrueType, OpenType, Type1, CID, CFF, Windows FON/FNT, X11 PCF, and others
The size parameter determines the size the font will be rendered at, specified in pixels. The standard font size is measured in units per EM, if you instead want to specify the size as the total height of glyphs in pixels, pass it as a negative value.
Note: If you want to display text at multiple sizes, load the font multiple times with different size parameters.
The following flags are supported:
ALLEGRO_TTF_NO_KERNING - Do not use any kerning even if the font file supports it.
ALLEGRO_TTF_MONOCHROME - Load as a monochrome font (which means no anti-aliasing of the font is done).
ALLEGRO_TTF_NO_AUTOHINT - Disable the Auto Hinter which is enabled by default in newer versions of FreeType. Since: 5.0.6, 5.1.2
See also: al_init_ttf_addon, al_load_ttf_font_f
al_load_ttf_font_f
ALLEGRO_FONT *al_load_ttf_font_f(ALLEGRO_FILE *file,
char const *filename, int size, int flags)
Like al_load_ttf_font, but the font is read from the file handle. The filename is only used to find possible additional files next to a font file.
Note: The file handle is owned by the returned ALLEGRO_FONT object and must not be freed by the caller, as FreeType expects to be able to read from it at a later time.
al_load_ttf_font_stretch
ALLEGRO_FONT *al_load_ttf_font_stretch(char const *filename, int w, int h,
int flags)
Like al_load_ttf_font, except it takes separate width and height parameters instead of a single size parameter.
If the height is a positive value, and the width zero or positive, then font will be stretched according to those parameters. The width must not be negative if the height is positive.
As with al_load_ttf_font, the height may be a negative value to specify the total height in pixels. Then the width must also be a negative value, or zero.
The behaviour is undefined the height is positive while width is negative, or if the height is negative while the width is positive.
Since: 5.0.6, 5.1.0
See also: al_load_ttf_font, al_load_ttf_font_stretch_f
al_load_ttf_font_stretch_f
ALLEGRO_FONT *al_load_ttf_font_stretch_f(ALLEGRO_FILE *file,
char const *filename, int w, int h, int flags)
Like al_load_ttf_font_stretch, but the font is read from the file handle. The filename is only used to find possible additional files next to a font file.
Note: The file handle is owned by the returned ALLEGRO_FONT object and must not be freed by the caller, as FreeType expects to be able to read from it at a later time.
Since: 5.0.6, 5.1.0
See also: al_load_ttf_font_stretch
al_get_allegro_ttf_version
uint32_t al_get_allegro_ttf_version(void)
Returns the (compiled) version of the addon, in the same format as al_get_allegro_version.

ALTER FOREIGN DATA WRAPPER
Section: SQL Commands (7)Updated: 2012-08-14
Index Return to Main Contents
NAME
ALTER FOREIGN DATA WRAPPER - change the definition of a foreign-data wrapperSYNOPSIS
ALTER FOREIGN DATA WRAPPER name [ VALIDATOR valfunction | NO VALIDATOR ] [ OPTIONS ( [ ADD | SET | DROP ] option ['value'] [, ... ]) ] ALTER FOREIGN DATA WRAPPER name OWNER TO new_owner
DESCRIPTION
ALTER FOREIGN DATA WRAPPER changes the definition of a foreign-data wrapper. The first form of the command changes the library or the generic options of the foreign-data wrapper (at least one clause is required). The second form changes the owner of the foreign-data wrapper.
Only superusers can alter foreign-data wrappers. Additionally, only superusers can own foreign-data wrappers.
PARAMETERS
- name
- The name of an existing foreign-data wrapper.
- VALIDATOR valfunction
-
Specifies a new foreign-data wrapper validator function.
Note that it is possible that after changing the validator the options to the foreign-data wrapper, servers, and user mappings have become invalid. It is up to the user to make sure that these options are correct before using the foreign-data wrapper.
- NO VALIDATOR
- This is used to specify that the foreign-data wrapper should no longer have a validator function.
- OPTIONS ( [ ADD | SET | DROP ] option ['value'] [, ... ] )
- Change options for the foreign-data wrapper. ADD, SET, and DROP specify the action to be performed. ADD is assumed if no operation is explicitly specified. Option names must be unique; names and values are also validated using the foreign data wrapper library.
EXAMPLES
Change a foreign-data wrapper dbi, add option foo, drop bar:
ALTER FOREIGN DATA WRAPPER dbi OPTIONS (ADD foo '1', DROP 'bar');
Change the foreign-data wrapper dbi validator to bob.myvalidator:
ALTER FOREIGN DATA WRAPPER dbi VALIDATOR bob.myvalidator;
COMPATIBILITY
ALTER FOREIGN DATA WRAPPER conforms to ISO/IEC 9075-9 (SQL/MED). The standard does not specify the VALIDATOR and OWNER TO variants of the command.

That's the message that gets printed when it can't load the C extension.
To find out more, try requiring it manually from inside VIM. For example, if I go and delete the
~/.vim/ruby/command-t/ext.bundle
file, I will see the error message that you quote. To manuallyrequire
it from inside VIM I do::ruby require 'command-t/ext'
And VIM prints:
LoadError: (eval):18:in `require': no such file to load -- command-t/ext
So when you do that, what do you see?
-
anonymous
I get this message:
LoadError: /Users/andrei/.vim/ruby/command-t/ext.bundle: dlopen(/Users/andrei/.vim/ruby/command-t/ext.bundle, 9): no suitable image found. Did find:
The ext.bundle exists though:
$ ls /Users/andrei/.vim/ruby/command-t/ext.bundle -rwxr-xr-x 1 andrei staff 15K Mar 30 10:09 /Users/andrei/.vim/ruby/command-t/ext.bundle

Ok, the message you're seeing is truncated. The full message is bound to be something like:
LoadError: /Users/andrei/.vim/ruby/command-t/ext.bundle: dlopen(/Users/andrei/.vim/ruby/command-t/ext.bundle, 9): no suitable image found. Did find: ext.bundle: mach-o, but wrong architecture - ext.bundle
This can happen when you try to load a 64-bit extension into 32-bit Ruby or vice versa.
So the question is, how did you build MacVim? Or is it just the latest snapshot?
And when you built Command-T, what was the output of the
make
? -

So your problem here is that the extension built as 64-bit and your MacVim was built as 32-bit.
I guess you're on Snow Leopard and that you're on a newish (ie. 64 bit) machine, as I can see that when you run
make
Ruby defaults to building for 64-bit (visible in the-arch x86_64
flags that appear in the build output).I am also guessing that the build of MacVim you downloaded was built on a machine running Leopard, or at least it was set up to use the older 10.4 SDK, and set to produce a 32-bit Universal Binary (as you can see in the output where it lists the arches as
-arch i386
and-arch ppc
).This has changed with more recent snapshots of MacVim, which are now labelled as "universal 32/64 bit binary which requires an Intel processor and Mac OS X 10.5 or later", but in any case the one you are using looks quite old (21 August 2008 compile) date. I'm using snapshot 52 here (which reports
VIM - Vi IMproved 7.2 (2008 Aug 9, compiled Mar 5 2010 15:46:30)
).So you have three options here:
-
One is to grab the latest MacVim snapshot (which reports
-arch i386 -arch x86_64
in the:version
output) from http://code.google.com/p/macvim/wiki/Snapshot; this is probably the easiest option by far - Another is to force the extension to build as 32-bit: this is going to be tricky at best because you're officially fighting an uphill battle against the defaults in Snow Leopard on 64-bit machiens
- The other is to build Vim yourself with 64-bit support: not too hard at all (documented here: http://code.google.com/p/macvim/wiki/Building) but I don't really see the benefit over just grabbing the latest snapshot
-
One is to grab the latest MacVim snapshot (which reports

I gather from the lack of response that you've satisfactorily solved your problem by updating to the latest MacVim snapshot, so I'm going to mark this one as closed. Feel free to post another comment if you want me to re-open it.

Vocabulary
The J Dictionary (menu Help|Dictionary) is the J reference book and is your ultimate, authoritative source of information on J. The sooner you become familiar with using it the better, and a good way to start is by looking up the primitives that have been introduced so far.
Press F1 to show the vocabulary and click a primitive to jump to the entry. If you press F1 while holding down Ctrl you get context sensitive help. If the caret is at a +, pressing Ctrl+F1 will jump to the + entry.
In the vocabulary take a look at the row for + , which is the fifth row. The first entry in this row contains: + Conjugate o Plus. The word + is a verb and its monad is called conjugate, and its dyad is called plus. The dyad + is plus as defined in arithmetic.
The monad + is interesting. In math, the conjugate of a complex number is the number with the same real part and an imaginary part of opposite sign. On real numbers the conjugate has no effect and the result is the argument, and on complex numbers it changes the sign of the imaginary part. J supports complex numbers just as directly as integers or real numbers. A complex number is indicated by a j separating the real and imaginary parts.
int =. 23
+ int
23
float =. 23.5
+ float
23.5
imagine =. 2j3 NB. 2 real part, 3 imaginary part
+ imagine NB. change sign of imaginary part
2j_3
Many primitives support complex numbers and the J Dictionary must document this, which means there is a bit of extra complexity in some of the descriptions. If you need complex numbers in your application this is fantastic. But if you are a beginner and are not concerned with complex numbers, then you have to know enough to be able to ignore these bits and not get distracted or confused.
Let's look at the + Dictionary page. The header line of the page gives the monad name Conjugate on the left side, and the dyad name Plus on the right. The formal name of the primitive + is near the center. The 0 0 0 to the right of the + will be explained later.
Below this header are two boxes. The left box has the monad definition and the right box has the dyad definition. The page then continues with general discussion and examples.
The J Dictionary is a concise, rigorous, and complete reference suitable for the most experienced users. This can make it difficult for beginners who don't know what to expect. For example, in the general discussion and examples for + there is considerable discussion of complex numbers and not a single example of just adding a couple of integers. Great for the experienced user who would be insulted if told how to add integers, but a bit of a reading challenge for the real beginner. You have to learn how to tune out, for now, the bits that are too advanced or are not relevant to your current interest, and concentrate on the parts that are.
Go to the vocabulary page and take a look at the +. entry (fifth row, second entry) which contains: +. Real/Imaginary o GCD (Or). There is a lot of information here, and again much of it is not relevant at this early stage. Let's look at the definition.
Glance at the left box for the monad definition and notice that it is for complex numbers. File it for future reference, but give it a pass for now.
The dyad case in the header is described as: GCD (Or). This gives two informal names, GCD and Or, and indicates it can be used in two different ways. The dyad definition is in the right box. Note that GCD stands for greatest common divisor (which should at least ring a bell of math memories). Further on in the definition you will find that if the arguments are boolean then the +. is the logical or function. The GCD is a useful extension of the domain of the or function to non-boolean arguments. This extension of the domain of primitives is common in J. For now, it is interesting to note that +. has this larger domain, but it is also easy to limit it to boolean arguments.
0 +. 0 NB. 0 or 0
0
0 +. 1
1
1 +. 0
1
1 +. 1
1
The vocabulary page entry for +: contains: Double o Not-Or. The definition page gives quite simple definitions for both the monad and dyad.
The monadic case is called double and does just what you'd expect.
+: 3
6
The dyadic case is the logical negation of the or of the arguments.
Again, for both +. and +: much of the general discussion and examples are perhaps beyond your capabilities right now. But the key is to know how to navigate and to get the information that is relevant.
After the row for ? there are additional rows for primitives that are spelled with names that are inflected with a dot or colon.

Company history
o David Bowmans first order was for three Kryptonite locks, which he delivered
by bus to a dealer in Montreals Notre-Dame-de-Grâce neighbourhood. The
Kryptonite U lock had never before been seen in Quebec or anywhere else in
Canada. Thirty years later, OGC is one of the best-known distributors in the
industry, marketing more than 20 high-value brands, industry leaders that
have been loyal to Bowman for years. These include Kryptonite locks,
Blackburn accessories, Bell and Giro helmets, Mavic wheels and
accessories, Saris racks and Camelbak hydration systems.
o Anticipating the market and identifying innovative new products is key to our
strategy and positioning. Its sometimes a risky approach, because these
products may be unknown. Up to now, our teams instincts have served us
well. Fifteen years ago, we launched the first suspension bikes on the
Canadian market. Year after year, weve tried to forge a reputation as leaders
and innovators, says Mr. Bowman, who also recalls discovering Oakley
eyewear products, unknown back then, at a trade show in New York more
than 20 years ago and introducing them to the Canadian market.
OPUS product line
Outdoor Gear Canada launches its OPUS line of bicycles.
History
o 2001 Launch of first five road models

Response configuration
Fixtures and presets share the same response configurator. It allows to set up response content and/or adapt request processing behavior.
Configure response
From the fixture or the preset, you can either use the set
method and/or use the BDD style :
const server = new Server()
server.respond // will register a new Fixture
.set({
status: 200
})
.headers({'content-type': 'application/json'})
.body(body => JSON.stringify({message: 'Hellow world !'}));
// Server will now respond to all requests with a JSON response and status 200
The response properties name are the same between object set approach and BDD style. The last assignment (no matter the way you're doing it) will override the previous. You can remove an option by providing false as value :
const server = new Server()
server.respond // will register a single fixture
.body(body => JSON.stringify({message: 'Hello world !'}));
// Remove body callback
server.respond // will fetch the fixture
.body(false);
Default response values
There's no default value for a fixture/preset response. You can use set up a preset and use it to automatically populate one or more response options of a fixture.
Response configuration persistence
Fixtures are stored within server and persists until server is reset. If you share the same server between many tests, any changes to fixtures configuration will persist into next tests. This can sometimes be tricky if you're updating an option of the fallback fixture in one test. See fixtures for more informations. This can also be really useful as you can create fixtures only once and share them along all tests.
Available response options
Each response option can be removed by affecting the false value to it. It is evaluated as a strict comparison.
FMF doesn't provide any default values, but Response implementation usually set up a status 200 with 'text/html' encoding to a new Response object when no options is provided.
| Option | Allowed value(s) | Description |
|---|---|---|
| body | null | Blob | BufferSource | FormData | ReadableStream | URLSearchParams | USVString | Function | You can use any of the available types for a native Response object. FMF also accepts a callback that will return the body content or alter the response (see fixture lifecycle) |
| delay | Number | The fixture response will be delayed by X ms |
| headers | Object | Headers | The object will be used to instantiate the Headers |
| status | Number | Status code of the response (2XX - 5XX). Some status code may have some requirements. For instance, trying to set up a body with a 204 status code will fail. It is not a FMF behavior but from native Response object. |
| statusText | String | Status text along the status code |
| wrapper | Function | Wrapper callback that transforms body. See wrappers |
| preset | String | Only available within a fixture. See presets |
| pattern | String | Pattern to apply to extract parameters from incoming request url. See patterns |
| before | Function | Callback called before the response is built. See fixture lifecycle |
| after | Function | Callback called after the response have been built. See fixture lifecycle |
Using wrappers
Wrappers are used as body processors when preparing the response. Body stored from fixture is provided and the processed body must be returned. The main goal is to get rid of little transformations when providing the body to the fixture. Only one wrapper is allowed per response.
For instance, let's say we're working on a JSON API that expects the server's response to be always wrapped in the same patterns. You can use wrapper and two global presets to get rid of emulating this behavior each time you're creating a fixture :
import {presets, Server} from 'fetch-mock-fixtures';
// Add the presets to global presets object
// You can do it in your tests bootstrap
presets = Object.assign(presets, {
'api-success': {
headers: {'content-type': 'application/json'},
wrapper: body => JSON.stringify({
success: true,
data: body
})
},
'api-failure': {
headers: {'content-type': 'application/json'},
wrapper: body => JSON.stringify({
success: false
error: body
})
}
})
// In tests scripts
const server = new Server()
server.respond.with.preset('api-success').and.body({
id: 1,
name: 'foo'
});
// Parsed JSON response will be {success: true, data: {id: 1, name: 'foo'}}
Using patterns
Patterns are a way to automatically extract parameters from the url. They will be provided as an object and first argument to the body callback (see fixtures#body_callback).
To extract params, url is parsed with path-to-regexp
. Please refer to this for advanced syntax.
Here's a simple example that use extract user id from url :
import {Server} from 'fetch-mock-fixtures';
users = [
{id: 1, name: 'foo'},
{id: 2, name: 'bar'},
{id: 3, name: 'baz'},
]
server.start().respond
.with.pattern('/api/users/:id?')
.and.body({id} => return id ? users.find(user => user.id === id) : users)


Born and raised in California, I grew up with a love of all thigs outdoors... and mathematics. Which led me to eventually become a high school math teacher. After eight years of teaching I decided to make a career change, and began to learn to code. Now I live in Washington where I am continuing to build my coding skills and taking advantage of all the wonderful outdoor experiences the state has to offer. I love conquering the next challenge, whether it is summiting the next peak, or learing the next coding language.
I designed and coded this portfolio site myself. It is fully responsive, coded with the mobile first strategy, and is viewable on mobile, tablet, and desktop.
This is a multi page, responsive website for a fictional music blog/website. It was coded from a photoshop design mock up. It is coded for mobile, tablet, and desktop. Working on this project taught me to create buttons, work with responive maps and images, and how to code mobile first.

This part of the documentation is supposed to gather in a single place the usual questions (and answers) about SOCI with regard to the design decisions that have shaped it.
SOCI was initially developed in the environment where Oracle was the main database technology in use. As a wrapper for the native OCI API (Oracle Call Interface), the name "Simple Oracle Call Interface" was quite obvious - until the 2.0 release, when the internal architecture was largely redesigned to allow the use of backends that support other database servers. We have kept the same name to indicate that Oracle is the main supported technology in the sense that the library includes only those features that were naturally implemented in Oracle. With the 2.1 release of the library, two new backends were added (MySQL and SQLite3) and we decided to drop the original full name so that new users looking for a library supporting any of these simpler libraries are not discouraged by seeing "Oracle" somewhere in the name. The other possible interpretation was "Syntax Oriented Call Interface", which stresses the fact that SOCI was built to support the most natural and easy interface for the user that is similar to the Embedded SQL concept (see below). But on the other hand, SOCI also provides other features (like object-relational mapping) and as a whole it is not just "emulator" of the Embedded SQL. With all these considerations in mind, SOCI is just "SOCI - The C++ Database Access Library".
Still, Oracle is considered to be the main driving server technology in terms of the set of features that are supported by the library. This also means that backends for other servers might need to work around some of the imposed idioms and protocols, but already available and well-working PostgreSQL, MySQL and SQLite3 backends show that it's actually not that bad and the abstractions provided by the library are actually very universal. Of course, some of the features that were provided for Oracle might not be supported for all other servers, but we think that it's better to have one leading technology (where at least one group is fully happy) instead of some "common denominator" for all databases (where nobody is happy).
The basic SOCI syntax was inspired by the Embedded SQL, which is part of the SQL standard, supported by the major DB technologies and even available as built-in part of the languages used in some DB-oriented integrated development environments. The term "Embedded SQL" is enough for Google to spit millions of references - one of the typical examples is:
{ int a; /* ... */ EXEC SQL SELECT salary INTO :a FROM Employee WHERE SSN=876543210; /* ... */ printf("The salary is %d\n", a); /* ... */ }
The above is not a regular C (nor C++) code, of course. It's the mix of C and SQL and there is a separate, specialized preprocessor needed to convert it to something that the actual C (or C++) compiler will be able to understand. This means that the compilation of the program using embedded SQL is two-phase: preprocess the embedded SQL part and compile the result. This two-phase development is quite troublesome, especially when it comes to debugging. Yet, the advantage of it is that the code expresses the programmer's intents in a very straightforward way: read something from the database and put it into the local variable. Just like that.
The SOCI library was born as an anwer to the following question: is it possible to have the same expressive power without the disadvantages of two-phase builds?
The following was chosen to be the basic SOCI syntax that can mirror the above Embedded SQL example:
int a; sql << "SELECT salary FROM Employee WHERE SSN=876543210", into(a);
(as you see, SOCI changes the order of elements a little bit, so that the SQL query is separate and not mixed with other elements)
Apart from mimicking the Embedded SQL techniques in the regular, fully standard C++ code, the above syntax has the following benefit: it is minimal with respect to what has to be said. Every single piece above is needed and expresses something important, like:
sql
object
encapsulates the session,std::string
variable,a
will receive the result.Everything else is just a couple of operators that allow to treat the whole as a single expression. It's rather difficult to remove anything from this example.
The fact that the basic SOCI syntax is minimal (but without being obscure at the same time, see below) means that the programmer does not need to bother with unnecessary noise that some other database libraries impose. We hope that after having written one line of code like above by themselves, most programmers will react with something like "how obvious!" instead of "how advanced!".
First, you don't need to use SQL queries as string literals. In bigger projects it is a common practice to store SQL queries externally (in a file, or in a... database) and load them before use. This means that they are not necessarily expected to appear in the program code, as they do in our simple code examples and the advantage of separating them from the source code of the main program is, among others, the possibility to optimize and tune the SQL queries without recompilation and relinking of the whole program.
What is the most important, though, is that SOCI does not try to mess with the text of the query (apart from very few cases), which means that the database server will get exactly the same text of the query as is used in the program. The advantage of this is that there is no new SQL-like (or even SQL-unlike) syntax that you would need to learn, and also that it's much easier to convince a typical DBA to help with SQL tuning or other specialized activities, if he is given the material in the form that is not polluted with any foreign abstractions.
An example of the stream-like interface might be something like this (this is imaginary syntax, not supported by SOCI):
sql.exec("select a, b, c from some_table"); while (!sql.eof()) { int a, b, c; sql >> a >> b >> c; // ... }
We think that the data stored in the relational database should be treated as a set of relations - which is exactly what it is. This means that what is read from the database as a result of some SQL query is a set of rows. This set might be ordered, but it is still a set of rows, not a uniformly flat list of values. This distinction might seem to be unnecessarily low-level and that the uniform stream-like presentation of data is more preferable, but it's actually the other way round - the set of rows is something more structured - and that structure was designed into the database - than the flat stream and is therefore less prone to programming errors like miscounting the number of values that is expected in each row.
Consider the following programming error:
sql.exec("select a, b from some_table"); // only TWO columns while (!sql.eof()) { int a, b, c; sql >> a >> b >> c; // this causes "row-tearing" // ... }
"How to detect the end of each line in a file" is a common beginner's question that relates to the use of IOStreams - and this common question clearly shows that for the record-oriented data the stream is not an optimal abstraction. Of course, we don't claim that IOStreams is bad - but we do insist that the record-oriented data is better manipulated in a way that is also record-aware.
Having said that, we have provided some form of the stream-like interface, but with the important limitation that the stream is always bound to the single row, so that the row-tearing effect is not possible. In other words, data returned from the database is still structured into rows, but each row can be separately traversed like a stream. We hope that it provides a good balance between convenience and code safety.
Some programmers are used to indicating the null value by using some special (which means: "unlikely" to be ever used) value - for example, to use the smallest integer value to indicate null integer. Or to use empty string to indicate null string. And so on.
We think that it's completely wrong. Null (in the database sense) is an information about the data. It describes the state of the data and if it's null, then there's no data at all. Nothing. Null. It does not make any sense to talk about some special value if in fact there is no value at all - especially if we take into account that, for example, the smallest integer value (or whatever else you choose as the "special" value) might not be that special in the given application or domain.
Thus, SOCI uses a separate indicators to describe the state of exchanged data. It also has an additional benefit of allowing the library to convey more than two states (null and not null). Indeed, the SOCI library uses indicators also to report that the data was read, but truncated (this applies to strings when reading to fixed-length character arrays). Truncation is also an information about the data and as such it's better to have it in addition to the data, not as part of it.
Having said that, it is important to point at the Integration with Boost
that allows to use boost::optional<T>
to conveniently pack together
the data and the information about its state.
Well, consider the following:
"Send the query X to the server Y and put result into variable Z."
Above, the "and" plays a role of the comma. Even if overloading the comma operator is not a very popular practice in C++, some libraries do this, achieving terse and easy to learn syntax. We are pretty sure that in SOCI the comma operator was overloaded with a good effect.
operator<<
provides a bad abstraction for the "input" statements.Indeed, the operator<<
in the basic SOCI syntax
shows that something (the query) is sent somewhere (to the server).
Some people don't like this, especially when the "select" statements
are involved. If the high-level idea is to read
data from somewhere, then operator<<
seems unintuitive to the die-hard IOStreams users. The fact is,
however, that the code containing SQL statement already indicates
that there is a client-server relationship with some other software
component (very likely remote). In such code it does not make any sense
to pretend that the communication is one-way only, because it's clear
that even the "select" statements need to be sent somewhere. This approach is
also more uniform and allows to cover other statements like "drop
table" or alike, where no data is expected to be exchanged at all (and
therefore the IOStreams analogies for data exchange have no sense at
all). No matter what is the kind of the SQL statement, it is sent
to the server and this
"sending" justifies the choice of operator<<
.
Using different operators (operator>>
and operator<<
)
as a way of distinguishing between different high-level ideas
(reading and writing from the data store,
respectively) does make sense on much higher level of abstraction,
where the SQL statement itself is already hidden - and we do encourage
programmers to use SOCI for implementing such high-level abstractions.
For this, the object-relational mapping facilities available in SOCI
might prove to be a valuable tool as well, as an effective bridge
between the low-level world of SQL statements and the high-level world
of user-defined abstract data types.
We decided to use the Boost license, because it's well recognized in the C++ community, allows us to keep our minimum copyrights, and at the same time allows SOCI to be safely used in commercial projects, without imposing concerns (or just plain uncertainty) typical to other open source licenses, like GPL. We also hope that by choosing the Boost license we have made the life easier for both us and our users. It saves us from answering law-related questions that were already answered on the Boost license info page and it should also give more confidence to our users - especially to those of them, who already accepted the conditions of the Boost license - the just have one license less to analyze.
Still, if for any reason the conditions of this license are not acceptable, we encourage the users to contact us directly (see links on the relevant SOCI page) to discuss any remaining concerns.

Beat the egg in a bowl. Trim the crusts from the bread and break the slices into small pieces. Add these pieces to
the
egg. Mix in the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Chesapeake seasoning and parsley, and beat well.
lace the crabmeat in a bowl and pour the egg mixture over the top. Gently toss or fold the ingredients together,
taking
care not to break up the lumps of crabmeat.
Form the cakes by hand into patties about 3 inches around and 3/4-inch thick. Shape should be like a cookie, not like
a
meatball or golf ball. Place the cakes in the refrigerator for at least 45 minutes before cooking. This is very
important so the cakes don't fall apart.
Broil the Crab Cakes:
Slip them under a preheated broiler until nicely browned, turning to cook evenly, about 4 to 5 minutes on each side.
Or saute:
Heat a small amount of butter or olive oil in a skillet and saute the cakes, turning several times, until golden
brown
or about 8 minutes total cooking time.
Serve at once with tartar sauce, mustard, or cocktail sauce on the side.
