I've been trying to build a step counter for my own use. I tried this code,
Sensor countSensor = sensorManager.getDefaultSensor(Sensor.TYPE_STEP_COUNTER);
if (countSensor !=null
{
sensorManager.registerListener(this,CountSensor,SensorManager.SENSOR_DELAY_UI);
} else {
Toast.makeText(this,"Count Sensor not Availabe in this device !!",Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
but, I did not get a positive output. It says that I have lower API than 19. How can I get things working for lower APIs?

I need to analyse one http event value which should not be greater than 30mins. & 95% event should belong to this bucket. If it fails send the alert.
My first concern is to get the right metrics in /actuator/prometheus
Steps I took:
As in every http request event, I am getting one integer value called eventMinute.
Using micrometer MeterRegistry, I tried below code
// MeterRegistry meterRegistry ...
meterRegistry.summary("MINUTES_ANALYSIS", tags);
where tag = EVENT_MINUTE which receives some integer value in each
http event.
But this way, it floods the metrics due to millions of event.
Guide me a way please, i am beginner to this. Thanks!!
The simplest solution (which I would recommend you start with) would be to just create 2 counters:
int theThing = //getTheThing()
if(theThing > 30) {
meterRegistry.counter("my.request.counter.abovethreshold").inc()
}
meterRegistry.counter("my.request.counter.total").inc()
You would increment the counter that matches your threshold and another that tracks all requests (or reuse another meter that does that for you).
Then it is simple to setup a chart or alarm:
my_request_counter_abovethreshold/my_request_counter_total < .95
(I didn't test the code. It might need a tiny bit of tweaking)
You'll be able to do a similar thing with DistributionSummary by setting various SLOs (I'm not familiar with them to be able to offer one), but start with something simple first and if it is sufficient, you won't need the other complexity.
There are certain ways to solve this problem
1 ; here is a function which receives tags, name of metrics and a value
public void createOrUpdateHistogram(String metricName, Map<String, String> stringTags, double numericValue)
{
DistributionSummary.builder(metricName)
.tags(tags)
//can enforce slo if required
.publishPercentileHistogram()
.minimumExpectedValue(1.0D) // can take this based on how you want your distibution
.maximumExpectedValue(30.0D)
.register(this.meterRegistry)
.record(numericValue);
}
then it produce metrics like
delta_bucket{mode="CURRENT",le="30.0",} 11.0
delta_bucket{mode="CURRENT", le="+Inf",} 11.0
so as infinte also hold the less than value, so subtract the le=30 from le=+Inf
Another ways could be
public void createOrUpdateHistogram(String metricName, Map<String, String> stringTags, double numericValue)
{
Timer.builder(metricName)
.tags(tags)
.publishPercentiles(new double[]{0.5D, 0.95D})
.publishPercentileHistogram()
.serviceLevelObjectives(new Duration[]{Duration.ofMinutes(30L)})
.minimumExpectedValue(Duration.ofMinutes(30L))
.maximumExpectedValue(Duration.ofMinutes(30L))
.register(this.meterRegistry)
.record((long)timeDifference, TimeUnit.MINUTES);
}
it will only have two le, the given time and +inf
it can be change based on our requirements also it gives us quantile.
I'm using WinCE 7 Visual Studio 2008 and writing a driver code for ALS (MAX44009). I have written the following code for reading the interrupt status register and displaying messages when the interrupt has occurs. But, it works randomly for a few times only. For eg., when I close the sensor with my hand, I get the messages only few times, and then, it doesn't go into the data==1 condition even when it has to interrupt and continues to loop. The threshold timer is 0. The AlsRegRead function does an I2CRead. pAlsDrvInfo is the driver context. ADD_ALS_INT_STATUS is 0. DumpAlsRegistry function will print the content of all the registers except register 0x0.
while(1)
{
AlsRegRead(pAlsDrvInfo, ADD_ALS_INT_STATUS, &data, sizeof(UINT8));
if (data == 1)
{
DumpAlsRegistry(pAlsDrvInfo);
RETAILMSG(1,(L"Interrupt Received...\r\n"));
}
}
Please guide me where I'm making mistake.
I have found the reason behind this. Two issues had been behind this and both of them are equally important.
1) The sensor had been in a partially damaged state.
2) It requires some delay. So, I added Sleep(1000) at the start of the loop.
while(1)
{
Sleep(1000);
AlsRegRead(pAlsDrvInfo, ADD_ALS_INT_STATUS, &data, sizeof(UINT8));
if (data == 1)
{
DumpAlsRegistry(pAlsDrvInfo);
RETAILMSG(1,(L"Interrupt Received...\r\n"));
}
}
Thanks.
I am just working my way through the location services for the first time and everything appears to be working in that it correctly finds my location but I am having trouble extracting the coordinates.
The docs states that CLLocation has a "Coordinates" property and the compiler is happy with this piece of code. However at runtime the CLLocation only appears to return a string description.
I start the location manager
_locationManager = new CLLocationManager ();
_locationManager.DesiredAccuracy = 1000;
// handle the updated location method and update the UI
_locationManager.LocationsUpdated += (object sender, CLLocationsUpdatedEventArgs e) => {
UpdateLocation (e.Locations [e.Locations.Length - 1], _destinationLatitude, _destinationLongitude);
};
if (CLLocationManager.LocationServicesEnabled)
_locationManager.StartUpdatingLocation ();
The event fires correctly
static public void UpdateLocation (CLLocation current, Double destinationLat, Double destinationLng)
{
//Make the start pairing
string start = current.Coordinate.Latitude.ToString() + "," + current.Coordinate.Longitude.ToString();
//Make the destination pairing
string destination = destinationLat.ToString() + "," + destinationLng.ToString();
}
However the app just crashes out. Catching it on a breakpoint I see the following which only appears to have a description property that contains.
Description "<+50.58198902,-3.67661728> +/- 65.00m (speed -1.00 mps / course -1.00) # 25/07/2013 13:11:28 British…" string
I can obviously extract the lat/lng from this text field but I get the feeling I shouldn't need to do this. Any help appreciated.
I moved the exact same code into a different controller and it worked fine. The only difference between the two controllers was that the failing controller was using the monotouch dialog reflection api to bind the screen elements. I can't see why this would make any difference but it is the only difference between the two controllers. Everything is working now, I will try to reproduce in a smaller sample if I get the time.
Part of an on premise app I am moving to the cloud, displays TV Scheduling information from a json source. The core data uses an offset in seconds from a start date to get it's start times which is all fine as these are all int UTC format.
The problem arises in the movement to the cloud.
The on premise app was situated in the UK so the locale is UntedKingdom and the TV times were correctly output using
return programmeStart.AddHours(programmeStart.IsDaylightSavingTime() ? 1 : 0);
However, having now moved to the cloud, the functionality for IsDaylightSavingTime, no longer returns true due to data centers being BST Agnostic.
Been racking my brains for a way to try and sort this.
Is there a quick and easy way to set what locale your hosted service runs under in Azure, or is the best solution to create an extension method that reads the boundries of when BST runs from and to, and then return true or false from there for example
public static class DateTimeExtension
{
public static bool IsMyDaylightSavingTime(this DateTime timeToTest)
{
if(timeToTest >= GetConfig("bstStart") && timeToTest <= GetConfig("bstFinish"))
{
return true;
}
return false;
}
}
And the maintaing the config values of bst changing as they move?
Thanks
You can't change the timezone of the Azure servers - there's lots going on that assumes UTC is the current setting.
You should be able to get hold of the UK timezoneinfo by string, e.g.:
TimeZoneInfo tzi = TimeZoneInfo.FindSystemTimeZoneById("GMT Standard Time");
After you've done that, then you can use the framework method TimeZoneInfo.IsDaylightSavingTime http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb460642.aspx
tzi.IsDaylightSavingTime(DateTime.Now);
Why can't you simply return UTC and let the client translate that per their locale?
Edit: Here is code
var offset = TimeZoneInfo.GetSystemTimeZones()
.Where(z => z.Id == "GMT Standard Time")
.Single()
.GetUtcOffset(DateTime.UtcNow)
I am streaming small movies (1-3MB) off my website into my iPhone app. I have a slicehost webserver, I think it's a "500MB slice". Not sure off the top of my head how this translates to bandwidth, but I can figure that out later.
My experience with MPMoviePlayerLoadStateDidChangeNotification is not very good.
I get much more reliable results with the old MPMoviePlayerContentPreloadDidFinishNotification
If I get a MPMoviePlayerContentPreloadDidFinishNotification, the movie will play without stuttering, but if I use MPMoviePlayerLoadStateDidChangeNotification, the movie frequently stalls.
I'm not sure which load state to check for:
enum {
MPMovieLoadStateUnknown = 0,
MPMovieLoadStatePlayable = 1 << 0,
MPMovieLoadStatePlaythroughOK = 1 << 1,
MPMovieLoadStateStalled = 1 << 2,
};
MPMovieLoadStatePlaythroughOK seems to be what I want (based on the description in the documentation):
MPMovieLoadStatePlaythroughOK
Enough data has been buffered for playback to continue uninterrupted.
Available in iOS 3.2 and later.
but that load state NEVER gets set to this in my app.
Am I missing something? Is there a better way to do this?
Just making sure that you noticed it's a flag, not a value?
MPMoviePlayerController *mp = [aNotification object];
NSLog(#"LoadState: %i", (NSInteger)mp.loadState);
if (mp.loadState & MPMovieLoadStatePlaythroughOK)
{
// Do stuff
}
