Seen this asked before but my example does not seem to work.  const CGFloat *toCol = CGColorGetComponents([[UIColor greenColor] CGColor]);   The array is empty from looking at it with GDB.  Any hints?
I'm creating a color object using the following code.  curView.backgroundColor = [[UIColor alloc] initWithHue:229 saturation:40 brightness:75 alpha:1];   How can I retrieve RGB values from the created color object?
Ubuntu 20.04 still supporting Python2 What's the difference between centre of mass & centre of gravity for massive bodies? My book says:     For most of the small objects, both are same. But for mammoth ones, they are really different ones. And in a gravity-less environment, COG is absent; COM still exists.   Ok, what's the big deal when things are small and big? How these two :  &amp; ? Is it possible to detect a player consuming food items? How to create a windows service from java app I've just inherited a java application that needs to be installed as a service on XP and vista. It's been about 8 years since I've used windows in any form and I've never had to create a service, let alone from something like a java app (I've got a jar for the app and a single dependency jar - log4j).  What is the magic necessary to make this run as a service?  I've got the source, so code modifications, though preferably avoided, are possible. My father-in-law is a builder. He has put in 20 amp and 15 amp breakers, and ran 12-2 as the home runs to the switch's and the first plug to make them hot. He then ran 14-2 to feed the rest of the plugs, lights, and ceiling fans.   Is it okay that he used different gauge wires on the same circuit? R: loading a table with number as the column heading all were wrongly added a X, how to solve it? Why should the "H" option not be used in floats? What's the English equivalent of the Japanese saying, “A fart ruins 100 days of sermons by the priest (bishop)”? I was amused by the expression "Paid a penny and only farted" (related by @FumbleFingers), which suggested a similar Japanese saying: 大山鳴動鼠一匹 - "Find only a small mouse coming out after hearing rumblings and experiencing shaking of the big mountain."  It’s humorous. I chuckled when I read it, and I wrote to the author that I love it.  With that said, the word "fart" reminds me of another Japanese proverb, 百日の説法屁一つ- "A fart ruins 100 days of sermons by the priest", which means that a small mistake (the sound of a fart in front of the congregation) brings all his efforts to naught.  It can’t happen in big Western churches. But it could well happen in a small wooden temple where a priest would preach to 30 – 50 provincial followers. Can you imagine how the proud priest being called 'the venerable' would be embarrased when his loud fart is heard by all his followers during his serious sermon and they start to giggle here and there in the hall?  We also have a similar saying" 九仞の功を一簣に欠く, which literally means "Collapse a 9- meter sand tower with the last pile of sand."  What is the English equivalent of the saying "A fart ruins 100 days of sermons by the priest (bishop): a small mistake depreciates the value of (vitiates) all labor and effort to naught," preferably in such a humorous way? When trying to mount an exfat filesystem, I get the following error:  Error mounting /dev/sda6 at /media/gkp/Backup: Command-line  `mount -t "exfat" -o "uhelper=udisks2,nodev,nosuid" "/dev/sda6" "/media/gkp/Backup"'  exited with non-zero exit status 32: mount: unknown filesystem type 'exfat'   Exfat is used on some USB sticks and camera sd cards.

So...here is part of my code for a plugin.  I'm a newb of sorts so be kind.  I've read up on global variables but I can't seem to get it to work and I've read you shouldn't use them anyway.
