Flash player doesn't render the flex code even after successful compilation

Let me tell you a scenario, where I was using Flash Develop for compiling flex project.

I've came back to this editor after long time. Meanwhile there are many new releases happened. In fact Adobe Flex 4.5 is now upgraded as Apache Flex 4.9. It seems a big difference.

So after setting up everything, it was time to check the basic 'Hello World' program.

And ... it compiles successfully but I see nothing on screen of flash player (debugger) even after it compiles without any error.

I thought what the hell they guys changed in the meantime.

Tried many tips and tricks but of no use.

Suddenly I noticed the flash player version in the Project→Properties→Output→Platform section. Why is it set to flash player version 10.5? It should be set to latest by default. Anyways, I just changed it to the 11.7 and Yuppie.. it renders fine now.

Hence if you are using the version of flex sdk that came after the version of flash player you are using then you can face similar issue. So always keep track of flex sdk version and flash player version.

Unlock protected blocks in Siemens SIMATIC Step 7

Recently I'd been called by Hindalco's Fabrication Plant division to unlock the protected blocks in Siemens SIMATIC Step 7. They were in need to unlock those blocks since an year because of 1 million Rupees of loss per month. They want to re-program those blocks but it was locked by the man who'd done the setup. From the people working in that department, I came to know that they were trying to call that man (someone from Italy) right here but he's not coming. Actually, what he'd done was that he'd locked some of the blocks and deleted the source file. And Siemens didn't provide any feature to unlock. Department people also told me that even the people working in Siemens don't know how to do it. Being a software engineer I know that any thing can be reverse engineered. So I took up the challenge. How did I unlocked the blocks? The first thing I'd done was searched about this software at Google and read about what is this software all about. Aft...

JS: The complete code example of Crypto.js (DES)

For one of the project I was trying to use crypto.js but I found that the Quick-start Guide have some deficiency in terms of library usage. So I am writing it here as a useful note for memory recap. <script src="http://crypto-js.googlecode.com/svn/tags/3.1.2/build/rollups/tripledes.js"></script> <script> var encrypted = CryptoJS.DES.encrypt("The secret message", "secret_key"); var e_msg = encrypted.toString(); console.log(e_msg); var decrypted = CryptoJS.DES.decrypt(e_msg, "secret_key"); var d_msg = decrypted.toString(CryptoJS.enc.Utf8); console.log(d_msg); </script>

Openmeetings Widget Wordpress Plugin

One of my client asked me to create a Wordpress plugin, so the first thing I did was to search for any existing plugin on which I can work on. Luckily I found one. It was developed by Shuki Vaknin. You can visit his plugin at:  http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/openmeetings-integration-plugin-widget/ But I had little different requirement. So I modified the Shuki Vaknin's plugin. The modification is that every session has a unique username. I choose guest as default name while adding a timestamp along with guest keyword like guest34578689 .
