TCP/IP Read - How do I find the number of bytes available

It appears that this is not directly possible. I am trying to get around
this by doing a tcp/ip buffered read with a very short timeout (0 or 1ms).
In theory it seems like I should be able to keep making the read call until
the exact number of bytes (4 in this case) pops out. It mostly works but
every so often hangs for some period of time and then resumes getting the 4
byte packets. Anybody have any idea what is going on?

The first thing I'm thinking of is that your delay is too short. Also, try to increase the packet length or use Immediate Mode (even CRLF MODE if you're transmitting text).
Another idea (if your application really needs that and you have LV / Windows) is to use MS Winsock Control (wait for DataArrival event and read BytesReceived).
Anyway, tune in your communication (packets and delays) taking in account details about your network or modem.
Good luck!

How do you find the number of lines in a file?

I need to count how many lines there are in a file, I am using a BufferedReader to read in the data, but how can I find the number of lines?
Thanks

That depends. How do you define a line? Is it a specific number of
characters, a String that's terminated by a newline character or some
combination thereof?

Oracle Linux behaves exactly like Red Hat in this matter an /proc/cpuinfo can be used for that. I guess this is because you have set up VirtualBox to only assign one virtual CPU to your guest Linux.

How do I find the number of contacts in a smart group in Contacts?

Hi,
To get the depth using JMS you must create a QueueBrowse and browse the entire queue. Its generally horribly inefficient if you want to do it with any regularity.
In Hermes I have had to write plugins that open separate connections to providers using their non-JMS APIs or JMX and get that kind of information that way.
Look at the getDepth() method in this JBoss plugin for an example that uses JMX:

How can I increase the number of episodes available in my feed?

I have thirty-seven episodes in my podcast total (and growing) but because I had the default setting at 20 in my WordPress blog's feed settings, iTunes only pulled twenty episodes. (as they should have) I have just increased the number of episodes available in my feed from 20 to 50. Will iTunes automatically notice the change or must I take additional steps? Thanks.

If you've succesfully changed the number of episodes shown in the feed, and re-uploaded it, iTunes will show the new episodes immediately for subscribers but it will take a couple of days or so for them to appear in the Store.

Hi,
I'm not sure if you want to count the bytes or sum the array. But here's an example of both:

How do I find the number times blob has been read?

Hi there,
I have a file, stored as a blob. Just wanted to know, how many times the (URL of the) blob has been accessed.
Thanks,
Siddharth

Hi Siddharth,
As far as I know, there is no API for get the times of azure blob accessed. But you could custom this function on you side. When there has a request for your blob url, you could increase the number of your blob accessed times
and store this number into table. Also, you could submit a feature request on this page:

Can't find email with serial number for Pages, how can I find the number?

Purchased Pages on 9th September following iWork09 trial, however I must have trashed the email containing serial number
in error. Does anyone know how to find the serial number. Thanks in advance for any reply...

You need to delete the trial & then reinstall from the boxed DVD or the Mac App Store. The files to delete are the iWork ’09 folder from the main HD > Applications; the iWork ’09 folder in HD > Library > Application Support & the individual iWork application plist files found in HD > Users > (your account) > Library > Preferences for each user. Yvan Koenig has written an AppleScript that removes the files. You can find it on his box.com account in for_iWork'09 > other_iWork'09 items > uninstall iWork '09.zip.

How do I find the number of file descriptors in use by the system?

Hey folks,
I am trying to figure out how many file descriptors my Leopard system has in use. On FreeBSD, this is exposed via sysctl at the OID kern.open_files (or something close to that, can't recall exactly what the name is). I do see that OS X has kern.maxfiles, which gives the maximum number of file descriptors the system can have open, but I don't see a sysctl that tells me how many of the 12288 descriptors the kernel thinks are in use.
There's lsof, but is that really the only way? And, I'm not even sure if I can just equate the number of lines from lsof to the number of in use descriptors. I don't think it's that easy (perhaps it is and I'm just over complicating things).
So, anyone know where this information is?
Thanks for your time.

Can't think of anything other than lsof right now. However:
Only root can list all open files, all other users see only their own
There is significant duplication, and
All types of file descriptor are listed, which you may not want, so you need to consider filtering.
As an example, the following will count all regular files opened by all users:
sudo lsof | awk '/REG/ { print $NF }' | sort -u | wc -lIf you run it without the sudo, you get just your own open files.

How do I find the number of instances of a text entry?

Hello,
I have a spreadsheet and the cells have either a text entry or numerical entry.
I am trying to work out how to write a formula to total the number of cells which have a particular text entry.
Any help would be apprectiated. Thank you.

=COUNTIF(test-array, condition)
'test-array' is the range of cells you want to test
'condition' must be expressed as a text string. To find the count of "example text" on the table named "Data", you could use either of the formulas below (on a separate table). Both counts are of 'all columns of "Data"'. The counts include items in the Header column (Column 1 of Data), but do NOT include items in the Header row (Row 1).
In the single cell table, "Count 1" the search text is stated as a literal in the formula:
=COUNTIF(Data :: $A:$D, "=example text")
In the two cell table, the search text (other text), is set in the top cell, A1, and that cell is referenced in the formula in A2:
=COUNTIF(Data :: $A:$D, "="&A1)
Note that because of the omission of Header row cells, the formulas could be placed in a Header Row cell on the main table ("Data"), with the search value also placed in a Header row cell on that table. The formulas in this case would not include the "Data::" part of the 'test-array' argument.
Regards,
Barry

How do i find the number of messages in a queue

Sorry if this is too trivial, but i haven't been able to figure out how to determine the number of messages in a queue. business case being that i can only have 3 messages in the send queue, so i need to stop sending if there are 3 outstanding messages still in the send queue.
Can someone point the way?
Thanks,
