I've spent many hours trying to get my bibliography working - unsuccessfully. I suspect that, somehow, my .bib file doesn't get recognised.
Help would be greatly appreciated.
MWE:

In PDF it looks like this: enter image description here

I really have very little idea on what goes on. Today, I started a work session, added a new source and it didn't work. I deleted the new source so that the bibliography would be the same as prior to me changing it, and it didn't work either. So, this let's me assume that, somehow, the program doesn't understand where the bibliography is. The .bib file and the document are in the same folder.
What I tried:
Triple checked code in bibliography using tools such as https://biblatex-linter.herokuapp.com/
Clear the cache of all documents.
change the natbib in the command \usepackage[backend=biber,style=authoryear, natbib]{biblatex} to biber -> doesn't seem to work.
Left out natbib and got same result. \usepackage[backend=biber,style=authoryear, natbib]{biblatex} => \usepackage[backend=biber,style=authoryear]{biblatex}
Add the command \usepackgage{natbitb} in addition to biblatex but this produces compatibility issues.
Add the codes \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} &
\usepackage{babel,csquotes,xpatch} because they are recommendet by this biblatex cheat sheet: http://tug.ctan.org/info/biblatex-cheatsheet/biblatex-cheatsheet.pdf. Didn't change anything.
Thanks for your time!
I had a similar problem, what helped me was looking up the articles and rewriting them via the Google Scholar bibTex version.
The problem arose as I changed the name manually. This results in an error which is not recognized. And this threw me into researching exactly the same kind of .bib file not recognized error.
Your housing article should be formatted like this:
#article{hsieh2019housing,
title={Housing constraints and spatial misallocation},
author={Hsieh, Chang-Tai and Moretti, Enrico},
journal={American Economic Journal: Macroeconomics},
volume={11},
number={2},
pages={1--39},
year={2019}
}
I found another source of this problem Citavi generates invalid bibtex syntax. Often the year field is not correctly filled or special characters are not escaped properly. Maybe these are data errors which have their origin in the sources not in Citavi, but nonetheless often Citavi does not export valid bibtex format.
I want to save small images in my room database and I have two issues:
How do I save an image in my database?
How do I save multiple images in my database?
I tried saving a bitmap in the way recommended by the developers page (https://developer.android.com/training/data-storage/room/defining-data)
#Parcelize
#Entity(tableName = "image_table")
data class ImgMod(
#PrimaryKey(autoGenerate = true)
var invoiceId: Long = 0L,
#ColumnInfo(name = "image")
var single_img: Bitmap?
): Parcelable
However, I receive the following error:
Cannot figure out how to save this field into database. You can consider adding a type converter for it.
Secondly, I would like to save multiple images in one database entry. But I receive the same error with the following snippets:
#ColumnInfo(name = "imageList")
var img_list: ArrayList<BitMap>
or decoded bitmap as a String
#ColumnInfo(name = "imageList")
var decoded_img_list: ArrayList<String>
I am sorry if this is a very basic question. But how do I have to configure the database/process the data to an image list?
Thank you in advance,
rot8
A very simple way to get images into the database (although I personally discourage it) would be to base-64 encode the bitmaps into a String and put it into a row of the database.
Take in account that bitmaps are very memory heavy; and base64 encoding something increases it's size some more so be careful when loading a bunch of images... I do also think Room and SQLite supports binary data as blobs, so you could just declare a column as ByteArray and it should just work.
What I've been doing in my projects is to write them into the internal or external storage of my app and then store the reference Uri as a String to later be able to retrieve the image from disk.
Something that I discourage even more is to stuff more than one value per row; having a list of stuff inside a coulmn in SQL is definetely not a pattern you should follow. Creating a "join" table should be simple enough or simply an extra column you could use to group them by should be easy enough, right?
I need to extract all the data I can find from these parts catalogs. Each catalog is in its own folder that looks like this.
Here is the PEid from the application
Here is how that data looks like when its viewed in the software.

Here is a listing one of the PARTLIST.DAT files from XORStrings
How can i extract the data from the files?
I've been looking at reverse engineering but not sure which direction to go with that. Do I have to start at the application (exe) level to get the data extracted? Can I not find a way to extract directly from the dat file itself?
I used IDA to upend the dat file and I can see the data that matches the application. But I cannot extract that data without pulling all the raw data with it.
guys!I have downloaded lame-3.100.tar.gz from the site of lame,and I want to convert one song which format is ape to mp3 by Foobar2000.But there's no lame.exe when I have unarchivered the document.Does anybody know solutions?
I am new to swift but I have made an android app where a string array is selected from an xml file. This is a large xml file that contains a lot of string arrays and the app gets the relevant string array based on a user selection.
I am now trying to develop the same app for iOS using swift. I would like to use the same xml file but I can not see and easy way to get the correct array. For example, part of the xml looks like this
<string-array name="OCR_Businessstudies_A_Topics">
<item>1. Business objectives and strategic decisions</item>
<item>2. External influences facing businesses</item>
<item>3. Marketing and marketing strategies</item>
<item>4. Operational strategy</item>
<item>5. Human resources</item>
<item>6. Accounting and financial considerations</item>
<item>7. The global environment of business</item>
</string-array>
<string-array name="OCR_Businessstudies_AS_Topics">
<item>1. Business objectives and strategic decisions</item>
<item>2. External influences facing businesses</item>
<item>3. Marketing and marketing strategies</item>
<item>4. Operational strategy</item>
<item>5. Human resources</item>
<item>6. Accounting and financial considerations</item>
</string-array>
If I have the string "OCR_Businessstudies_A_Topics" how do i get the "OCR_Businessstudies_A_Topics" array from the xml file.
This is very straight forward in android and although I have used online tutorials for swift it seems like I have to parse the xml file but do not seem to be getting anywhere.
Is there a better approach than trying to parse the whole xml fie?
Thanks
Barry
You can write your own XML parser, conforming to NSXMLParser or use a library like HTMLReader:
let fileURL = NSBundle.mainBundle().URLForResource("data", withExtension: "xml")!
let xmlData = NSData(contentsOfURL: fileURL)!
let topic = "OCR_Businessstudies_A_Topics"
let document = HTMLDocument(data: xmlData, contentTypeHeader: "text/xml")
for item in document.nodesMatchingSelector("string-array[name='\(topic)'] item") {
print(item.textContent)
}
