So I am working bitcoin source 0.15.1
chainparams.cpp script,
Line 120~130,
Trying to find new genesis block's value when starting new.
So I googled many articles, forum, but not yet find working solution.
Unlike v0.8, there Debug.Log file itself seems does not generated even after write printf at source.
Why and how to get to know my genesis block value?
Thanks.
chainparams.cpp contains a line of code that checks whether the chain’s genesis block is equal to a specified hash.
You can see an example for the line here:
hashGenesisBlock = genesis.GetHash();
assert(hashGenesisBlock == uint256("9915158279673d101912be80f25c20627f1dd8bf5231e7c46bfec5ed19737f44"));
To print it the hash of the genesis block, you can use
printf("genesis.GetHash = %s\n", genesis.GetHash().ToString().c_str());
Which prints the genesis block in terminal or debug.log

I am trying to prompt the user of my .jl file to enter user entered multiple destinations.
Basically I need the user to give an input & an output. I know in java you would use a scanner, or accept arguments when it is compiled in the command line. I am fine with either option. From what I have found looking through the Julia Documentation I think I could accomplish the first way of assigning a variable to the readline function.
(String)in = (String)Readline(STDIN)
From my understanding the variable 'in' should now contain a String of the user's input. I am encountering an error, in that when I compile my .jl code, because my command prompt does not stop to read user input, and just finishes reading the .jl code.
The first item to note in the code in your question is:
(String)in = (String)Readline(STDIN)
Julia 1.0.0 now uses stdin instead of STDIN.
Next, the (String) typecasting is not something you need or want to do in Julia.
Thus your code could read (though we get an error):
julia> in = readline(stdin)
This is a test.
ERROR: cannot assign variable Base.in from module Main
So variable in is in conflict with a Julia Base.in variable. Just use a another variable name.
julia> response = readline(stdin)
This is a test.
"This is a test"
This code is now working, but it has no prompt. Your answer provides an example input function with a prompt which you defined like this:
julia> function input(prompt::AbstractString="")
print(prompt)
return chomp(readline())
end
input (generic function with 2 methods)
The chomp function removes a single trailing \n newline character from the input string. Docs here.
Example use of the function here:
julia> input_file = input("Please enter input file name: ")
Please enter input file name: Data.txt
"Data.txt"
julia> output_file = input("Please enter output file name: ")
Please enter output file name: Output.txt
"Output.txt"
Command Line Args Method
As the docs point out, to just print out the arguments given to a script, you can do something like this:
println("Arguments passed to ", PROGRAM_FILE, ":")
for arg in ARGS
println(arg)
end
Here is an example of above code running on the Windows command line:
c:\OS_Prompt>julia PrintArgs.jl Data.txt Output1.txt Output2.txt Output3.txt
Arguments passed to PrintArgs.jl:
Data.txt
Output1.txt
Output2.txt
Output3.txt
You can also print out the script file name as shown, PrintArgs.jl.
After searching & testing I found one solution and decided to reply to it here. I had to declare my own function to be able to get the program to accept user input.
function input(prompt::AbstractString="")
print(prompt)
return chomp(readline())
end
I am not sure what the chomp function does, but I know it works for what I was asking. I am still curious if you can do something in Julia similar to java and C String args[], in which you pass extra information while you are telling your command to run. Something like the following.
Julia testFile.jl goHere.txt lookHere.txt
Perl 6 Plain-Old-Documentation (perhaps Fancy-New-Documentation) has some features that allow it to construct documentation for things it sees, and the documentation shows up in the $=pod variable at runtime.
However, I was surprised when I couldn't read the docs when I'd made an error in the program text. Here I've left out a statement separator between two statements:
use v6;
BEGIN { put "BEGIN" }
INIT { put "INIT" }
CHECK { put "CHECK" }
"foo" "bar";
DOC INIT { put "DOC INIT" }
DOC BEGIN { put "DOC BEGIN" }
DOC CHECK { put "DOC CHECK" }
=begin pod
=head1 This is a title
This is a bit of pod
=end pod
When I run it with the --doc switch, the program syntax matters (and BEGIN runs):
$ perl6 --doc doc.p6
BEGIN
===SORRY!=== Error while compiling ...
Two terms in a row
------> "foo"⏏ "bar";
expecting any of:
infix
infix stopper
statement end
statement modifier
statement modifier loop
When I fix it, I get some warnings (so, perl6 is compiling) and the compilation-time phasers run:
BEGIN
DOC BEGIN
DOC CHECK
CHECK
WARNINGS for /Users/brian/Desktop/doc.p6:
Useless use of constant string "bar" in sink context (line 9)
Useless use of constant string "foo" in sink context (line 9)

We already know this is a bit dangerous in Perl 5. A perl -c and a BEGIN block can run code. See How to check if a Perl script doesn't have any compilation errors?. I don't think this is any more dangerous than something we already know, but now it's happening at a time when I'm not explicitly asking something to compile program statements.
I haven't delved into the details of Perl 6 pod and why this might be necessary outside of declarator blocks and .WHY (a cool feature), but it seems like this can lead to trouble. Is there perhaps an external program that might extract the Pod? Or a way to do without the declarators unless the program will run?
Yes, the whole file has to be parsed, which in turn requires running BEGIN and use statements and such.
The Perl 6 language is designed for one-pass parsing from top to bottom, so that at any given point the parser understands what it is parsing based on what it has parsed so far.
Consider code like the following:
say "
=begin pod
Not POD, just a string!
";
If you'd just grep the file for POD statements without parsing all of it, it would misinterpret this piece of code.
I.e. you can't parse only the POD parts without parsing the normal Perl 6 code parts, because without parsing it all from top to bottom you can't know which is which.
PS: In theory, the Perl 6 designers could have accommodated POD-only parsing, by making it illegal for normal Perl 6 code to contain lines that look like they start a POD block. In this scenario, the above code snippet would be a syntax error when the whole file is parsed, because starting a line inside a string literal with =begin pod would be disallowed, so the --pod switch could rely on all lines that begin with =begin foo actually starting a POD block.
Such a restriction probably wouldn't be a major burden for normal Perl 6 code (after all, who needs to write =begin pod at the start of a line in a multi-line string literal), but note that one of the reasons for the one-pass top-to-bottom parsing architecture is to facilitate language extensibility via slangs.
E.g. CPAN modules could add support for users writing a single subroutine (or other lexical scope) in another language or DSL. (Implementing such modules isn't actually possible yet without hacking into Rakudo internals via NQP, but once the macro/slang design is complete, it will be).
The burden for disallowing lines that look like they start a POD block, would then be passed on to all those slang parsers.
You could always submit a feature request for Larry and the other Perl 6 designers to consider this, though.
I need to understand if a PDF has any kind of digital signature. I have to manage huge PDFs, e.g. 500MB each, so I just need to find a way to separate non-signed from signed (so I can send just signed PDFs to a method that manages them). Any procedure found until now involves attempt to extract certificate via e.g. Bouncycastle libs (in my case, for Java): if it is present, pdf is signed, if it not present or a exception is raised, is it not (sic!). But this is obviously time/memory consuming, other than an example of resource-wastings implementation.
Is there any quick language-independent way, e.g. opening PDF file, and reading first bytes and finding an info telling that file is signed?
Alternatively, is there any reference manual telling in detail how is made internally a PDF?
Thank you in advance
You are going to want to use a PDF Library rather than trying to implement this all yourself, otherwise you will get bogged down with handling the variations of Linearized documents, Filters, Incremental updates, object streams, cross-reference streams, and more.
With regards to reference material; per my cursory search, it looks like Adobe is no longer providing its version of the ISO 32000:2008 specification to any and all, though that specification is mainly a translation of the PDF v1.7 Reference manual to ISO-conforming language.
So assuming the PDF v1.7 Reference, the most relevant sections are going to be 8.7 (Digital Signatures), 3.6.1 (Document Catalog), and 8.6 (Interactive Forms).
The basic process is going to be:
Read the Document Catalog for 'Perms' and 'AcroForm' entries.
Read the 'Perms' dictionary for 'DocMDP','UR', or 'UR3' entries. If these entries exist, In all likelyhood, you have either a certified document or a Reader-enabled document.
Read the 'AcroForm' entry; (make sure that you do not have an 'XFA' entry, because in the words of Fraizer from Porgy and Bess: Dat's a complication!). You basically want to first check if there is an (optional) 'SigFlags' entry, in which case a non-zero value would indicate that there is a signature in the Fields Array. Otherwise, you need to walk each entry of the 'Fields' Array looking for a field dictionary with an 'FT' (Field Type) entry set to 'Sig' (signature), with a 'V' (Value) entry that is not null.
Using a PDF library that can use the document's cross-reference table to navigate you to the right indirect objects should be faster and less resource-intensive than a brute-force search of the document for a certificate.
This is not the optimal solution, but it is another one... you can to check "Sigflags" and stop at the first match:
grep -m1 "/Sigflags" ${PDF_FILE}
or get such files inside a directory:
grep -r --include=*.pdf -m1 -l "/Sigflags" . > signed_pdfs.txt
grep -r --include=*.pdf -m1 -L "/Sigflags" . > non_signed_pdfs.txt
Grep can be very fast for big files. You can run that in a batch for certain time and process the resulting lists (.txt files) after that.
Note that the file could be modified incrementally after a signature, and the last version might not be signed. That would be the actual meaning of "signed".
Anyway, if the file doesn't have a /Sigflags string , it is almost sure that it was never signed.
Note the conforming readers start reading backwards (from the end of the file) because there is the cross-reference table that says where is every object.
I advice you to use peepdf to check the inner structure of the file. It supports executing it commands over the file. For example:
$ peepdf -C "search /SigFlags" signed.pdf
[6]
$ peepdf -C "search /SigFlags" non-signed.pdf
Not found!!
But I have not tested the performance of that. You can use it to browse over the internal structure of the PDF an learn from the PDF v1.7 Reference. Check for the Annexs with PDF examples there.
Using command line you can check if a file has a digital signature with pdfsig tool from poppler-utils package (works on Ubuntu 20.04).
pdfsig pdffile.pdf
will produce output with detailed data on the signatures included and validation data. If you need to scan a pdf file tree and get a list of signed pdfs you can use a bash command like:
find ./path/to/files -iname '*.pdf' \
-exec bash -c 'pdfsig "$0"; \
if [[ $? -eq 0 ]]; then \
echo "$0" >> signed-files.txt; fi' {} \;
You will get a list of signed files in signed-files.txt file in the local directory.
I have found this to be much more reliable than trying to grep some text out of a pdf file (for example, the pdfs produced by signing services in Lithuania do not contain the string "SigFlags" which was mentioned in the previous answers).
After six years, this is the solution I implemented in Java via IText that can find any PADES signature presence on an unprotected PDF file.
This easy method returns a 3-state Boolean (don't wallop me for that, lol): Boolean.TRUE means "signed"; Boolean.FALSE means "not signed"; null means that something nasty happened reading the PDF (and in this case, I send the file to the old slow analysis procedure). After about half a million PADES-signed PDFs were scanned, I didn't have any false negatives, and after about 7 million of unsigned PDFs I didn't have any false positives.
Maybe I was just lucky (my PDF files were just signed once, and always in the same way), but it seems that this method works - at least for me. Thanks #Patrick Gallot
private Boolean isSigned(URL url)
{
try {
PdfReader reader = new PdfReader(url);
PRAcroForm acroForm = reader.getAcroForm();
if (acroForm == null) {
return false;
}
// The following can lead to false negatives
// boolean hasSigflags = acroForm.getKeys().contains(PdfName.SIGFLAGS);
// if (!hasSigflags) {
// return false;
// }
List<?> fields = acroForm.getFields();
for (Object k : fields) {
FieldInformation fi = (FieldInformation) k;
PdfObject ft = fi.getInfo().get(PdfName.FT);
if (PdfName.SIG.equals(ft)) {
logger.info("Found signature named {}", fi.getName());
return true;
}
}
} catch (Exception e) {
logger.error("Whazzup?", e);
return null;
}
return false;
}
Another function that should work correctly (I found it checking recently a paper written by Bruno Lowagie, Digital Signatures for PDF documents, page 124) is the following one:
private Boolean isSignedShorter(URL URL)
{
try {
PdfReader reader = new PdfReader(url);
AcroFields fields = reader.getAcroFields();
return !fields.getSignatureNames().isEmpty();
} catch (Exception e) {
logger.warn("Whazzup?", e);
return null;
}
}
I personally tested it on about a thousand signed/unsigned PDFs and it seems to work too, probably better than mine in case of complex signatures.
I hope to have given a good starting point to solve my original issue :)
I have a model of a heating process on Ansys Multiphysics, V11.
After running the simulation, I have a script to plot a temperature profile:
!---------------- POST PROCESSING -----------------------
/post1 ! tdatabase postprocessor
!---define profile temperature
path,s_temp1,2,,100 ! define a path
ppath,1,,dop/2,0,0 ! create a path point
ppath,2,,dop/2,1.5,0 ! create a path point
PDEF,surf_t1,TEMP, ,noav ! print a path
plpath,surf_t1 ! plot a path
What I now need, is to save the resulting path in a text file. I have already looked online for a solution, and found the following code to do it, which I appended after the lines above:
/OUTPUT,filename,extension
PRPATH,surf_t1
/OUTPUT
Ansys generates the file filename.extension but it is empty. I tried to place the OUTPUT command in a few locations in the script, but without any success.
I suspect I need to define something else, but I have no idea where to look, as Ansys documentation online is terribly chaotic, and all internet pages I've opened before writing this question are not better.
A final note: Ansys V11 is an old version of the software, but I don't want to upgrade it and fit the old model to the new software.
For the output of the simulation (which includes all calculation steps, and sub-steps description and node-by-node results) the output must be declared in the beginning of the code, and not in the postprocessing phase.
Declaring
/OUTPUT,filename,extension
in the preamble of the main script makes such that the output is stored in the right location, with the desired extension. At the end of the scripts, you must then declare
/OUTPUT
to reset the output file location for ANSYS.
The output to the PATH call made in the postprocessing script is however not printed in the file.
It is convenient to use
*CFOPEN,file,ext
*VWRITE,Vector(1,1).Vector(1,2)
(2F12.6)
*CFCLOSE
where Vector(1,1) is a two column array created by *DIM, and stores your data to output to file
As this is a special command, run it from file i.e. macro_output.mac
Am trying to use NEOS to solve a linear program using MPS input.
The MPS file is fine, but apparently you need a "paramaters file" as well to tell the solver what to do (min/max etc.). However I can't find any information on this online anywhere.
So far I have got NEOS to solve a maximization problem and display the objective function. However I cannot get it to display the variables.
Does anyone know what code I should add to the paramters file to tell NEOS/CBC to display the resulting variables?
The parameter file consists of a list of Cbc (standalone) commands in a file (one per line). The format of the commands is (quoting the documentation):
One command per line (and no -)
abcd? gives list of possibilities, if only one + explanation
abcd?? adds explanation, if only one fuller help(LATER)
abcd without value (where expected) gives current value
abcd value or abcd = value sets value
The commands are the following:
? dualT(olerance) primalT(olerance) inf(easibilityWeight)
integerT(olerance) inc(rement) allow(ableGap) ratio(Gap)
fix(OnDj) tighten(Factor) log(Level) slog(Level)
maxN(odes) strong(Branching) direction error(sAllowed)
gomory(Cuts) probing(Cuts) knapsack(Cuts) oddhole(Cuts)
clique(Cuts) round(ingHeuristic) cost(Strategy) keepN(ames)
scaling directory solver import
export save(Model) restore(Model) presolve
initialS(olve) branch(AndBound) sol(ution) max(imize)
min(imize) time(Limit) exit stop
quit - stdin unitTest
miplib ver(sion)
To see the solution values, you should include the line sol - after the min or max line of your parameter file.
If this doesn't work you can submit the problem to NEOS in AMPL format via this page. In addition to model and data files, it accepts a commands file where you can use statements to solve the problem and display the solution, for example:
solve;
display _varname, _var;
This post describes how to convert MPS to AMPL.
