edx - How to test 'studio_view' in xblock-sdk? -

-

i'm developing custom-xblock, course-creator can add html in predefined , pre-designed block. have installed xblock-sdk , using same xblock development. can test student_view in xblock-sdk want test studio_view in same environment.

right in forward test studio_view, have install developed custom-xblock in edx-platform. if there way test in xblock-sdk development can faster , reliable.

i have dogwood release installed in edx-devstack.

depends on mean "test". if that's manual testing - possible, easier install locally , check if works in actual studio. access views other student_view, open scenario xblock, add /${view_name} url - should open view (i.e. localhost:8080/scenario/test/student_view`)

if you're talking unittests - read along.

there's xblock-utils repository provides quite useful base classes. 1 of classes, seleniumbasetest might give insights on how (these lines in particular).

or can subclass test class , use (example: in poll xblock tests). there's 1 possibly misleading/confusing thing studio views - there 2 of them: * studio_view - view displayed when click "edit" on xblock in popup * author_view - what's shown in unit. defaults student_view show same content students , authors.

note full studio functionality won't available there - parts of external block's studio_view , author_view, won't there in sdk.

java - Copying object fields -

-
what best way of copying classes when need have 2 independent variables? have simple class: public class myclass { boolean = false; string b= "not empty"; } do need make method : assign(myclass data ) { a= data.a; b= data.b; } is there automatic method copy (duplicate) objects in java? do need make method : pretty close. instead of making method, should make constructor. such constructors called copy constructor , , create them this: myclass(myclass data) { = data.a; b = data.b; } and create copy of instance, use constructor this: myclass obj1 = new myclass(); myclass obj2 = new myclass(obj1); copy constructor can tedious : using copy constructor create deep-copy can tedious, when class has mutable fields. in case, assignment create copy of reference, , not object itself. have create copy of fields (if want deep copy). can go recursive. a better way create deep copy serialize , deserialize object. why not use clone()? ...

c++ - Clear the memory after returning a vector in a function -

-
i have function processes , stores lot of data in , returns results vector of class. amount of data stored in function tremendous , want clear storage memory of function after finished job. necessary (does function automatically clear memory) or should clear memory function? update: vector<customers> process(char* const *filename, vector<int> id) { vector<customers> list_of_customers; (perform actions) return list_of_customers; } variables defined locally within function automatically released @ end of function scope. destructors objects called, should free memory allocated objects (if objects coded correctly). example of such object std::vector . anything you've allocated new must have corresponding delete release storage. try avoid doing own allocation , use raii instead, i.e. containers or smart pointers.
