ios - Swift execute asynchronous tasks in order -


i have few asynchronous, network tasks need perform on app. let's have 3 resources need fetch server, call them a, b, , c. let's have finish fetching resource a first before fetching either b or c. sometimes, i'd want fetch b first, other times c first.

right now, have long-chained closure so:

func fetcha() {   afnetworking.get(completionhandler: {     self.fetchb()     self.fetchc()   }) }

this works now, obvious limitation i've hard-coded order of execution completion handler of fetcha. now, want fetchc after fetchb has finished in completion handler, i'd have go change implementation fetchb...

essentially, i'd know if there's magic way like:

let orderedasync = [fetcha, fetchb, fetchc] orderedasync.executeinorder()

where fetcha, fetchb, , fetchc async functions, fetchb won't execute until fetcha has finished , on. thanks!

you can use serial dispatchqueue mixed dispatchgroup.enter(), dispatchgroup.leave() , dispatchgroup.modify() ensure 1 execution block run @ time.

let serialqueue = dispatchqueue(label: "serialqueue") let dispatchgroup = dispatchgroup() group.enter() serialqueue.async{  //call whenever need add new work item queue     fetcha{         //in completion handler call         group.leave()     } } serialqueue.async{     group.wait()     group.enter()     fetchb{         //in completion handler call         group.leave()     } } serialqueue.async{     group.wait()     group.enter()     fetchc{         group.leave()     } }

or if allowed use 3rd party library, use promisekit, makes handling , chaining async methods way easier gcd provides. see official github page more info. can wrap async method completion handler in promise , chain them this: 

promise.wrap(fetcha(completion:$0)).then{ valuea->promise<typeofvalueb> in     return promise.wrap(fetchb(completion:$0) }.then{ valueb in  }.catch{ error in     //handle error }

also, errors propagated through promises.

android - InAppBilling registering BroadcastReceiver in AndroidManifest -

i'm implementing inapp billing in android app. works well, however, i'm trying decouple broadcast receiver activity manifest. suggestion in android's trivialdrive sample: // important: dynamically register broadcast messages updated purchases. // register receiver here instead of <receiver> in manifest // because call getpurchases() @ startup, therefore can ignore // broadcasts sent while app isn't running. // note: registering listener in activity bad idea, done here // because sample. regardless, receiver must registered after // iabhelper setup, before first call getpurchases(). currently there's class extends broadcastreceiver : public class iabbroadcastreceiver extends broadcastreceiver { /** * intent action receiver should filter for. */ public static final string action = "com.android.vending.billing.purchases_updated"; private final iabbroadcastlistener mlistener; public iabbroadcastreceiver(iabbroadcastlistener listener) { m...

python Tkinter Capturing keyboard events save as one single string -

is possible store keyboard events 1 string? code below stores 1 char , prints it. card reader or bar code reader, contains collection of character/ string not 1 character @ time. goal save char pressed text variable. from tkinter import * root = tk() def key(event): text= event.char text+= event.char print ("pressed", text) def callback(event): frame.focus_set() print ("clicked at", event.x, event.y) frame = frame(root, width=100, height=100) frame.bind("<key>", key) frame.bind("<button-1>", callback) frame.pack() root.mainloop() currently, creating text variable , everytime key() function gets called, , text stores last character typed. you can define text module level variable , , use module level text inside key function - text = '' def key(event): global text text+= event.char print("pressed", text)

sql server - Why does Linq-to-SQL add unnecessary COUNT()? -

here tables: create table customer ( cid int primary key, name varchar(32) ) create table ord ( oid int primary key, cid int foreign key references customer, address varchar(20) ) here's linq-to-sql statement: var aaa = c in db.customer select new { c, o = c.ord.tolist() }; and here's inexplicable query generated linq-to-sql: select [t0].[cid] [cid], [t0].[name] [name], [t1].[oid] [oid], [t1].[cid] [cid2], [t1].[address] [address], (select count(*) [dbo].[ord] [t2] [t2].[cid] = [t0].[cid]) [value] [dbo].[customer] [t0] left outer join [dbo].[ord] [t1] on [t1].[cid] = [t0].[cid] order [t0].[cid], [t1].[oid] i want understand how rid of count(*) part. it's entirely uncalled for! linq needs count(*) in order determine number of entries returned o = c.ord.tolist() .
