ChildBrowser iOS xCode

Today I tried to simplify the ChildBrowser execution in xCode, which I follwed earlier. To my surprise, I don't need to do anything rather than simply ignoring some steps. Here is the procedure:
  1. Download the ChildBrowser plugins here.
  2. Start xCode and create a phonegap-based application.
  3. In Supporting Files > PhoneGap.plist, add under Plugins (click the down arrow to the left of Plugins, then click on the + symbol to open a new row):
    Key: ChildBrowserCommand

    Type: String (default)

    Value: ChildBrowserCommand 
  4. You need to associate your external URLs on this page, too. In Supporting Files > PhoneGap.plist, add them under
    ExternalHosts, like:
    Key: Item 0

    Type: String (default)

    Value:  * or whatever URL you are using in the code(* is enough)
  5. Right-click on the Plugins folder in Xcode and select to “Add Files to…” the folder.
  6. Navigate to the phonegap-plugins > iPhone > Childbrowser folder, and select the ChildBrowser folder. Check “Copy items into. . .” and “Create groups for. . .” A ChildBrowser folder is added to the Plugins folder.

Sample Code:

<html>

<head>

<script type=”text/javascript” charset="utf-8" src=”phonegap.<version>.js”></script>

<script type=”text/javascript” charset="utf-8" src=”ChildBrowser.js”></script>
            <script type=”text/javascript” charset="utf-8">

                        var cb;

                        function onDeviceReady()    {
                                 cb = ChildBrowser.install();
                        }
                        function showChild()  {
                                 cb.showWebPage(“http://google.com”);
                        }

</script>

</head>
<body onload=”onDeviceReady()”>

<a href="#" onclick="showChild()">Click here</a>

</body>
</html>

Setting JVM Heap size at runtime

To set the JVM heap size, compile the program normally. For example, consider Runtime.java program. Compilation: javac Runtime.java Now, to set minimum heap size(let, 16 MB) required by JVM, run the program as follows : java -Xms16m Runtime  We can also restrict maximum size(let 512 MB) utilized by JVM: java -Xmx512m Runtime  Both these options can also be combined to specify upper and lower bounds of JVM heap size: java -Xms16m -Xmx512m Runtime Now you can run a program that requires huge computational space.

JavaScript - Singleton Pattern

The singleton design pattern is probably the simplest and most common pattern in JavaScript. So why should you use the singleton pattern? Encapsulation of members & functions Creates its own Namespace A singleton is a single instance object Encourages code reuse Improves readability because you can logically organise your code The point of a singleton is to only have one instance. A shopping cart is a good example of something that you may want only a single instance of at one time. The simplest form of Singleton is an object literal. This loose form of Singleton cannot be instantiated. All of the members are now accessible through the Singleton variable, accessible through dot notation. var myCart = {     self: this ,     totalCost: 0,     totalQty: 0,     cart: {},     getCart: function (){ },     updateCart: function (){ } }; alert( "Total cost: ...

Find an old archived link on web

In recent past, I'm need of a tool, to which the provider no longer provides the link to download. Previously I've blogged about Openlogic , which serves this purpose. Openlogic contains unofficial fork of the original repository, and to be precise, I haven't found the tool I'm in search of. I found Internet Archive : Wayback Machine , while searching for it. It has got 412 billion stored pages and you may look into older versions of any website or you can get link to any software/tool which used to be a website. All you have to do is, provide a link or part of a link to search. For example, to know how my website used to be in 2013, just type http://www.thechaithanya.com and you can see a calender with some of the dates highlighted, on which they had the snapshot of my website. You can even provide a part of link. For example, to get the link of older version of Android ADT, search using http://dl.google.com/android/adt/* You can find a set of links and...
