Wrong exception after calling .net4.0 com server from delphi application -

-

we migrating our codebase bds2006 rad studio xe, , found strange behavior: if make invalid floating point operation (ie. division zero) after creating object com server implemented in .net4.0, don't normal exception (ie. edivisionbyzero), estackoverflow.

we managed prepare simple example: comerrorexample

there .net 4.0 assembly, com interface (one function returning string) , simple delphi application: 

var   a, b: double;   stored8087cw: word;  begin   coinitialize(nil);    try     b := 0;     := 1 / b;   except     on e: exception       writeln(e.classname, ': ', e.message, ' (expected type of exception)');   end;    stored8087cw := get8087cw;   writeln('code .net com: ', coexampleofcom.create.dosomething);   set8087cw(stored8087cw); //it's show 8087 control word doesn't change    try     b := 0;     := 1 / b;   except     on e: exception       writeln(e.classname, ': ', e.message, ' (unexpected type of exception! why stack overflow?)');   end;    readln;    couninitialize;  end.

as can see, make 2 divisions 0 - first one, before com object creation, throws edivisionbyzero, second 1 throws estackoverflow.

we tested on win7 x64, , winxp x32 - no difference. when switched com server .net4.0 .net3.5 - works fine.

question: doing wrong? can fix problem?

switching .net3.5, or dumping delphi isn't option us.

update: checked floating point configuration ( set8087cw() ) before without luck. update2: i've expanded example restoring floating point configuration.

it looks in com dll changing floating point processor configuration. see default8087cw , set8087cw in delphi help.

you can save before doing com dll , restore afterwards.

var   saved8087cw: word; begin   saved8087cw := default8087cw;   // if want, disable fpu exceptions    // next line.   set8087cw($133f);   doyourcomoperationhere;   set8087cw(saved8087cw); end;

Javascript line number mapping -

magically formatted comments change reported line number of javascript errors in browsers; this: //@line n "f" n line number , f file name. unfortunately, //@line appears ungoogleable. know there documentation on feature, , browsers support it? (i found references here , here .) from can find available in mozilla based browsers. it using js_setoptions command can turn these options on or off depending on values passed. https://developer.mozilla.org/en/js_setoptions

c# - Is it possible to remove an existing registration from Autofac container builder? -

-
something along lines: builder.registertype<mytype>().as<itype>(); builder.registertype<mytype2>().as<itype>(); builder.deregistertype<mytype>().as<itype>() var container = builder.build(); var types = container.resolve<ienumerable<itype>>(); assert.istrue(types.count == 1); assert.istrue(types[0].gettype == typeof(mytype2)); scenario: go through bunch of assemblies , go register types want make sure have 1 implementation of given type. need before create container. track on own nice if autofac me bit. this cannot done directly using containerbuilder , unless start on new one. mind you, having first built container should able construct new container filtering away unwanted types , reusing registrations first container. this: ... var container = builder.build(); builder = new containerbuilder(); var components = container.componentregistry.registrations .where(cr => cr.activator.limittype != typ...

php - Mysql PK and FK char(36) vs int(10) -

-
i have read mysql can handle indexes , searches better if tables keys integers rather char(36) uuid's. is worth converting int(10)? note: use 1 server , have have plans use multiple databases concurrently therefore removing 1 of big reasons using uuid. our tables innodb if makes difference. thanks in advance. usually rdbms can handle integer keys pk more efficient, other datatypes. reason how build index column, yes: long dont require string (or other typed) keys, should use integers. however: char(36) , int(10) far away being equal, because int(10) much smaller, char(36). dont know, if require many different keys, should keep in mind. update, complete last paragraph: int(10) 32-bit, char(36) 36 - ^byte^ (= 288-bit). not mean, int consumes less space, means, char(36) has 4 times more different keys.
