web applications - Which free third-party services can I use to enable user content uploads (images/documents) to a web app? -

-

I'm looking for an alternative solution to allow a web app to upload user content, due to the restrictive file Basically do not allow

I need a free third-party web service for:

  • Image uploads
  • Document upload

What image are I thinking of using Flickr for image uploads and then looking at them Use flickr API for images to image? Or is there an easy external service to integrate image uploads?

Regarding document uploads, if I want a user to be able to upload MS Word, Rich Text or PDF to my app, strong> Google Docs if directly in my service Uploads are not possible or, again, is this some other service that allows it?

Whether or not I need to use Amazon to upload, but because I am unemployed, I want to reduce as much expenses as possible and try to use free of charge outside services Until then, both of my programs and the users of my application are not cumbersome for the use. There is always a risk when you direct someone to a third party that where they have started and they will forget to come back :)

appreciate any suggestions

Okay, my first thing is that Google App Engine can help you know that they are free Give a certain amount and then you charge the rates like Amazon, when you go behind boundaries The parties may prescribe a little more layer in Python (in fact use is really easy) and then the rest of your web app anywhere and write GAppEngine team is really recommended to use the service API.

Otherwise I really recommend Amazon web services. I hate to say this but like the initial 5 dollar donation you should consider charging a small amount for initial access, then Those users make your premium users later when you hit success. 37 Signal's Jason Fried (and I agree with that) that free web apps will disappear faster and faster, I know that this is not really a programming answer, but it's the reality of business lately only long Due to being unemployed till the time, I sympathize with your situation. Best wishes

c# - ListView onScroll event -

-
I am programming a simple C # application, and I need a Scallow event on the list view. So I inherited the original ListView class created in ListviewEx witch. I found out how to locate the scroll message from WinAPI and I modified the WndProc method. Now I have this WndProc: protected override zero WndProc (Ref message message) {base.WndProc (Ref I); If (m.msg == WM_VSCROLL) {onScroll (This, New EventArgs ()); }} But the problem is, I do not know how to know about scrolling information. This data should be in wParam, but there is a LOWORD macro ++ like in C in C # and I switch to find the criteria like SB_ below, SB_ENDSCROLL, SB_PAGEUP etc. there any way Need to change the LOWORD macro from C #? Or any other way to find the necessary parameters about scrolling? You can define the WParam constants as the following: Private const int WM_HSCROLL = 0x114; Private Constant WM_VSCROLL = 0x115; Private contact int SBHOZZ = 0; Private Consultant SB_VERT = 1; Private Con...

I am trying to create a back-end for my mobile application. I am sending the content of an image in the body of the HTTP request (output stream) as a byte array, I want to read this stream of bytes in PHP scripts and take back an image. Can anyone tell me how can I do this? Thank you. You can obtain the request body $ body = Reading from file_get_contents ('php: // input'); What you do with that data Depending on you, you can write the data in a file as you mentioned that this is image data, you can drop the data into the object can do. Another option is to use and load the image.

Linux Terminal Problem with Non-Canonical Terminal I/O app -

-
I have a small app written in C to run on Linux. Part of the app accepts user-input from keyboard , And it uses non-canonical terminal mode so that it can respond to each keystroke. The section of the code that accepts input is a simple task that is called repeatedly in the loop: char get_input () {char C = 0; Int res = reading (input_tamille, & amp; c, 1); If (RSS == 0) 0 returns; If (res == -1) {/ * snip error handling * /} return c; } It reads a letter from the terminal if there is no input within a given time limit, (c_cc [VTIME] value in the vocabulary structure), read () 0 And get_input () is called again It all works very well, I have recently discovered that if you run this app in a terminal window, and then the app Close the terminal window without ending, the app will not exit Received, but CPU intensive launches into an infinite loop, where the read () returns 0 without waiting continued. So how can I get out of the apple if it runs from the terminal win...
