Setting variables and taking effect in one batch command line -


i found out if following:

set variable=test & echo %variable%  --outputs "%variable%" echo %variable%                      --outputs "test"

the change won't take effect until new line runs. need have take effect need use long, one-lined command.

you need delayed expansion or call echo:

@echo off  setlocal enabledelayedexpansion  set var=val&echo !var!  endlocal  set var=val&call echo %%var%%

if have compositions of commands put & or in brackets set command take effect after of them executed.so need or delayed expansion (which allow access variables ! instead of %) or call

to enable delayed expansion in command prompt need start cmd /v:on :

>cmd /v:on >set variable=test & echo !variable!

ruby - How do I merge two hashes into a hash of arrays? -

http://codepad.org/wmyzqlis i'd merge these 2 arrays: a = { :a => 'a', :b => 'b', :d => 'd' } b = { :a => '1', :b => 'b', :c => 'c' } into hash looks this: {:a => ["a", "1"], :b => ["b", "b"], :c => [nil, "c"], :d => ["d", nil] } this doesn't work: p a.merge(b) { |k, v1, v2| [v1, v2] } # {:c=>"c", :a=>["a", "1"], :b=>["b", "b"], :d=>"d"} it's because hash#merge call block duplicate keys. a = { :a => 'a', :b => 'b', :d => 'd' } b = { :a => '1', :b => 'b', :c => 'c' } hash[(a.keys|b.keys).map { |key| [key, [a.fetch(key, nil), b.fetch(key, nil)]] }] # => {:a=>["a", "1"], :b=>["b", "b"], :d=>["d", nil], :c=>...
