I am running a Flatpak app and I'm trying to do some specific operation using it. The operation fails - presumably because Flatpak denies it access to something, as designed. But I actually want this operation to succeed - or at least, to do it manually myself - and I want to see what Flatpak actually denied the app from doing. Accessing a specific file? If so, which file?
That's the general question. The more specific question, what I'm actually trying to accomplish, is: I want Telegram Desktop to launch in the background when I log in. The GUI option for this generates an error message:
I could make it start up by myself, but I want it to start minimized, and there's probably a commandline flag for that - that it might add when added through this option.

I'm admittedly new to Netsuite, so this may be obvious, although I've been unable to find anything specific one way or the other. In fact, I don't even attend any training until next week, but I'm trying to get part of my development environment setup with one of the editors/IDEs I prefer. I know that Netsuite offers an Eclipse plugin, but I'm not an Eclipse fan. I'd prefer to use either WebStorm or TextMate. (I'm on MacOS Sierra)
I tried installing the WebStorm plugin, but it's throwing an exception and is not functional. I submitted a bug on GitHub, but what I'd really like to know is if it's possible for me to write my own script to upload/download files to the cabinet, so I could just roll my own feature in TextMate. Is this possible, and if so, how? (Just a link to the docs is perfectly fine)
In other words, is it possible via their API, to submit changes to a script I've been working on in another editor/IDE? Or interact with our cabinet? (Not sure if I'm using the proper NS verbiage, but hopefully you get my intent) I'm thinking about writing a Python script, that accepts a local script path as a parameter, that will then get submitted to our cabinet. Thanks for the help in advance.
I wrote a plugin for JetBrains IDEs (I use WebStorm specifically though) that mimics NetSuite's Eclipse plugin. Feel free to take a look. It is open source and has ~1500 downloads at the current moment.

If you are the same person that opened this issue (https://github.com/Topher84/NetSuite-Tools-For-WebStorm/issues/7), it has been closed and was due to using an older version of WebStorm.
I don't like eclipse personally, so I just make my scripts in whatever and use Netsuite's script backend to upload the scripts as 'new' when I'm done. If I want to change them, simply use their backend again to 'edit' the script. You'll see a simple editor, where you can change things, or you just copy and paste what you have in there. It's a little more work than something integrated, but it does work..
I'm creating a C++ linux application that needs some initial parameters of configuration to work correctly, these externals configurations is needed to avoid multiple compilations for parameters changes, and this configurations needs to be unknow by the end users. I was thinking an way do make an hidden configuration file that is consumed at the first execution, and always is researched at execution to verify possibles changes. Some suggestion to do this?
It is unlikely that you can hide the configuration file so that people do not know its existence: most Linux users would want to know which files you are installing in which location, and there are many ways to help them in discovering that, even if you try to do it without telling them (the simplest way that comes to my mind, they may do a file system snapshot and compare it before and after running the install program)
If your goal is to prevent people from changing the configuration without your permission (i.e., without paying for a license upgrade), you may do it by requiring the configuration to be signed from your company, storing the verification key inside the executable.
If you want to prevent the configuration from being read you don't have that much luck: there is not much that can stop a motivated attacker from reading the content of that file, since your application must be able to do it as well.
We have an app which syncs files and folder like the way dropbox does. This is an c++ / QT based installer.
We would like add custom menu in the right click context menu of a file or folder like the way dropbox does in the below screen shot.
We are targeting both windows & Mac platforms. Can anyone suggest me how to start with it?
On Mac, you're going to have problems as adding to the general Finder Context Menu has been deprecated.
So, you may be thinking, if it's deprecated, then how do Dropbox do this? From what I've researched in the past, I believe they use code injection to inject into the running Finder application's address space and then an Objective-C feature known as method swizzling to change calling a method to one of their own, which is located in the injected code.
This is all fairly hardcore and very low level, but if you're going to go on that journey, you can start by looking into a library called mach_inject and googling about it. The source code can be found here: -
https://github.com/rentzsch/mach_inject
However, be aware that there are those that believe code-injection is wrong and won't install Dropbox or any other software that uses it. In addition, if you're planning on releasing a product in the Mac Store, I wouldn't expect any application that performs code injection to be allowed.
For windows, I could find a complete Shell extension example over here.

I am using XCode for test driven development in C++.
It occurred to me that I would save a lot of time if XCode could automatically build and run my tests every time I save.
Is there any way to do this (by scripting XCode or otherwise)? Google doesn't seem to have a clue.
I have seen this workflow when using interpreted languages and it really does increase productivity.
Let's assume that my machine is fast enough to build and run tests in a few seconds.
If you're targeting C++, then you're probably out of luck.
With Objective-C, there's a project called «Injection»:
http://injectionforxcode.com/
It tracks the changes to your project files, and when a change occurs, it re-build the files as categories, placed inside a bundle.
The bundle is then loaded dynamically into the running app, and the contents from the categories replace the running code.
But it's Objective-C. C++ does not have such a runtime and capabilities.
Anyway, you may want to take a look at it... : )
automatically? no. you could write your own fsevent monitor agent. when a change occurs that requires a rebuild, do something appropriate.
the easy way around this: you can configure xcode to save when building. you don't need save explicitly, just hit run with this preference enabled. in that sense, hitting run is as simple as hitting save, and that performs a save, build and run in the correct order when you hit run. You may want an intermediate target or scheme for this.
another option would be to use a vc commit as a trigger for a build and run of your tests (saw your comment: use branches).
No, I don't think this can be done.
Most projects don't build and test in the fraction of a second it would require for it to be practical to do on every save anyway (i.e., whenever Xcode autosaves).
A lot of work has gone into the infrastructure for just getting Xcode's live errors and warnings. As long as your project isn't too weird those live errors ought to give a pretty good proxy for actually building it anyway.
For testing you might want to look into continuous integration if you don't already use it.
Grey-beards that grew up before autosave may have developed the habit of occasionally using a key command to save manually. Such users may be able to change that habit by substituting the key command that runs the tests for the key command they use to manually save.
I sometimes get
Could not find the ColdFusion Component or Interface Answer.
and simply doing a refresh fixes the problem.
This is not case where the program is being refreshed from ftp while I try to browse from it: no development is being done. But every once in a while I'll get it while trying to do a createobject.
Q: Is there a best practice for sleeping and trying again if instantiating a component fails?
Are you using a cluster of servers? If so perhaps you have one server misconfigured - perhaps a missing mapping - and when you get served from that server you see the issue? That might explain the way it seems to only sometimes happen.
By the way, instansiation of CFCs should always work - you should not be trying to code around this issue by sleeping and trying again.
Phillip, any chance this is on cf 9.0.1, and you're using the "import" keyword?
The reason I ask is that I've seen behavior -- and logged a bug report on it -- where if I have two different object creations on the same page (or in another CFC... doesn't matter), both from the same package, and I'm not using the fully qualified CFC name but instead am using import, then the first createObject() will succeed and the second will fail with the "could not find ... " error.
I wonder if something like that could be at work here.
