shorthand

If my understanding of the internal workings of this line is correct: public int MyInt { get; set; } Then it behind the scenes does this: private int _MyInt { get; set; } Public int MyInt { get{return _MyInt;} set{_MyInt = value;} } What I really need is: private bool IsDirty { get; set; } private int _MyInt { get; set; } Public int MyInt { get{return _MyInt;} set{_MyInt = value; IsDirty = true;} } But I would like to write it something like: private bool IsDirty { get; set; } public int MyInt { get; set{this = value; IsDirty = true;} } Which does not work. The thing is some of the objects I

Does anyone know if there is a way to use some kind shorthand in swift? more specifically, leaving out the braces in things like IF statements... eg if num == 0 // Do something instead of if num == 0 { // Do something } Those braces become rather space consuming when you have a few nested IF's. PS. I do know I can do the following: if num == 0 { // Do something } But I'm still curious if that sort of thing is possible You can do that : let x = 10, y = 20; let max = (x < y) ? y : x ; // So max = 20 And so much interesting things : let max = (x < y) ? "y is greater than x" : "x is greater than y

How can I flip the value of a boolean variable in javascript, without having to include the variable name twice? So foobarthings[foothing][barthing] = !foobarthings[foothing][barthing]; without writing foobarthings[foothing][barthing] twice. There is no shorter way than what you currently have. You can do this: foo ^= 1 But this really switches foo between 0 and 1, not true and false. var value = true; alert(value); value ^= true; alert(value);​ You could get 1 or 0 here To flip the value of a boolean variable in JS you need the syntax like this: return !foo; It's really that easy... Or you

There are shorthand operators for the basic arithmetic operators, such as: x = x+2; x += 2; or y = y*2; y *= 2; However, I was wondering if there was any such operator that could simply invert the value of a boolean. For example, assuming z = true , is there any shorter equivalent to: z = !z; I know it can't be just !z , because then it would just return the opposite value of z , but it wouldn't change its value. I know I'm kind of lazy, but I use this a lot in my code and am trying to optimize it as much as possible. I'd try to avoid repeating variable names as much as possible to keep it

In some browsers (namely, Firefox) the getComputedStyle().getPropertyValue() doesn't report anything for shorthand CSS, like border . Is there a non-specific-code way of getting these shorthand CSS values? I've considered making a whitelist of shorthand CSS and their respective longhand CSS values. But I realize doing that would be both a big pain and a non-forward-compatible design. I'm wondering, what do you want to do with a string like border: 1px solid #000 ? Say you want to reproduce an elems border in order to copy it copyStyle(el2, el, "border") : // Copies a set of styles from one

I'm trying to require() my template for rss feed in php. Unfortunately I need to have shorthand tags enabled on server I'm working with. I have to start my rss with <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?> and <? ... ?> confuses php into thinking he has to parse that line of code. Is there a way to "escape" that? here's just the full code of my rss template that I'm trying to include into main php file: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?> <rss version="2.0"> <channel> <title>Kokodakalo!</title> <link>http://127.0.0.1/koko/</link> <description>Usluga slična twitteru</description> <?php $data
