Updating a Single Column In Room Database

That's the function I'm using for updat

private fun updateSettingsDatabase(settingsDao: SettingsDao) {
        lifecycleScope.launch {
            settingsDao.update(SettingsEntity(
                1,
                nightMode=nightModeResult,
            ))
        }
}

@Query("SELECT * FROM `settings-table`")
fun fetchCurrentSettings(): Flow<List<SettingsEntity>>

I specified nightMode= because I thought that this way I'm only updating this colummn, but it turns out that it resets every column, how do I update a single column, while keeping the values the rest of the columns?

Using EdittextPreference for Goto search
sorry for my poor English. I want to use EditTextPreference in my bottom nav like the pic below, ![screenshot][1]

I have recycleview xml in my project with in many sub cardview layouts(which is scrollable) and I want to create item in the bottom nav which is called "Goto". When the "Goto" item is clicked i want it to pop-up like the screenshot. And when user enters a number(according to the cardviews i.e if the number of cardview is 40 user must enter 1-40) I want to search the cardview by its ID. Thank you and I hope u got it, If u have any questions let me know [1]: https://i.stack.imgur.com/grK8P.jpg

My xml format look like this. As you see in the blow since the cardviews are huge in number it is not cool to scroll all the way down that is why i need Goto item in the bottom nav to search it by its ID when the user click number in the EditTextPreference as u see in the screenshot. i.e The screenshot is not from my app

Java - Update Elements in Large XML Files
I work with very large XML datasets (1 GB+) and need to backtrack and update specific elements per node, depending on the values of other elements that follow.

For example, in this record/node:
```
<user>
    <role>Associate</role>
    <team>Hufflepuff</team>
    <experience>7</experience>
</user>
```
Since "experience" is greater than 5 years, the role needs to be updated from "Associate" to "Senior."

I would like to avoid loading the entire file into memory via the DOM.

Ideally, I would process each single "user" in the XML and append the data to a new XML file one at a time. I started off by processing in a stream using StAX, but I don't know how to transform each XMLEventWriter event content into a useable DOM document that writes to an XML file and clears from memory afterwards.

If the description is unclear in any way, please let me know. Any help on this will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

cant read field in xml section

Using python I got to the correct iteration of the XML (forecast) section, but one child field I cant seem to be able to read here is the section from the XML

<forecast>
<fcst_time_from>2022-05-04T16:00:00Z</fcst_time_from>
<fcst_time_to>2022-05-04T20:00:00Z</fcst_time_to>
<change_indicator>FM</change_indicator>
<wind_dir_degrees>110</wind_dir_degrees>
<wind_speed_kt>6</wind_speed_kt>
<visibility_statute_mi>6.21</visibility_statute_mi>
<sky_condition sky_cover="SCT" cloud_base_ft_agl="4500"/>
<sky_condition sky_cover="SCT" cloud_base_ft_agl="25000"/>
</forecast>

I can get every field except <sky_condition sky_cover="SCT" cloud_base_ft_agl="25000"/>

here is the code where I pull the fields

if startTime_new <= Cur_Date_UTC <= EndTime_new:
                #Cil2 = (l.find('sky_cover')).text
                wDir = (l.find('wind_dir_degrees')).text
                wSpd = (l.find('wind_speed_kt')).text
                vis = (l.find('visibility_statute_mi')).text
                Cil = (l.find('sky_condition')).text
                print(wDir)
                print(wSpd)
                print(vis)
                print(Cil)
                print(l)

The answer given did work in a comand window but I am using beautifulsoup to get the XML . I tried to import from datetime import datetime however Cil = [x.get('sky_cover') for x in elt.findall('sky_condition')] did not work

here is my full code

from bs4 import BeautifulSoup as bs
import requests
import pytz
from datetime import datetime

#pirip=False

def SetDateTimes():
    utc_time = datetime.now(pytz.utc)
    Cur_Date_UTC = utc_time.strftime("%d/%m/%y %H:%M:%S")
    return Cur_Date_UTC

def FixDateTime(workingTime):
    workingTime = workingTime.replace('T', ' ')
    workingTime = workingTime.replace('Z', '')
    format = "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S"
    dt_object = datetime.strptime(workingTime, format)
    day_st = dt_object.strftime("%d")
    month_st = dt_object.strftime("%m")
    year_st = dt_object.strftime("%y")
    time_st = dt_object.strftime("%H:%M:%S")
    workingTime = day_st + '/' + month_st + '/' + year_st + ' ' + time_st
    return workingTime

How can I use Continue in a choose statement in xslt

I want to continue to check for other if statements if the first one is met. From what I read, Choose statement does not have this functionality like other languages do. One post suggested to just run multiple if statements but this is not working. After the first if statement is met it stops there, I want it to keep running.

How can I achieve this? This is my code:

            } <xsl:if test="position() != last()">,</xsl:if>

Is anyone implemented layout camera feature like Instagram in Android?

I have already tried with single activity and multiple fragment which is added programmatically as per layout(2x2,2x3) same as instagram.

But when i load camera on first fragment its working fine but when it moves to second fragment it stuck.

Used one Camera Fragment with different fragment container as per need.

I have used cameraview by natario1 and cameraX. But in both result not getting as per need.

If anyone done Please give me reference.

Thanks

Below is example of functionality
