Haxe 3.4.0 installer used 'haxelib version' still reflects 3.3.0 - haxe

I wanted to use Visual Studio Code for HaxeFlixel development and the Haxe extension noted that I needed Haxe 3.4.0. I went ahead and downloaded the new installer from the website and installed it on my laptop running Windows 10. However after installing it turned out that calling 'haxelib version' in the command prompt it still returned 3.3.0.
I tried rebooting. Uninstalling then rebooting and installing again. I could find nothing in the system environmental variables that could cause it. Tried updating the Haxe on my Desktop, and had the same issue. Which is running windows 8.1 on it.
Does someone know what might be the cause? Thank you for your time in advance.

To check the Haxe version, use haxe -version. haxelib is a separate application and can have a version number that's different from the compiler's version.
Haxelib 3.3.0 appears to be the version shipped with Haxe 3.4.0-rc.1.

Flutter extremely slow on linux

Flutter application is extremely slow on linux. The performance tab shows 15fps and it never goes beyond that. I was unable to find any explanation or possible solution for this issue. Any suggestions?
clang version 10.0.0-4ubuntu1/
cmake version 3.16.3/
ninja version 1.10.0/
pkg-config version 0.29.1/
OS : Fedora Linux
For anyone potentially running into the same problem, this was either an issue with my OS or my flutter SDK. I initially installed the SDK using snap but after reinstalling my OS I installed it by cloning the github repo and setting the path variable etc... (the way explained in the official website) and the issue was resolved.

Missing mfc140u.dll when trying to run windows application using Wine in Ubuntu

I want to run a c++ application written in vs2017 in Ubuntu 16.04. I've installed Wine version 3.0.3 as well as Winetricks version 20140817. When trying to run the application using 'wine app_name.exe' command, i get an error saying
002e:err:module:import_dll Library mfc140u.dll (which is needed by L"path_to_my_application_library") not found
I tried to install mfc140u via Winetrichs GUI using 'Install a Windows DLL or component' option but it seems not to be listed anywhere on the list of the available packages. Does anyone know how to make it available?
Make sure you are using the most up-to-date version of Wine (currently Wine 4). You can check by running:
wine --version
If you need to upgrade Wine, check out the instructions here.
That dll is a part of Visual C++ redistributable. You'll need to install it so the application will work. Instructions are here.
I don't use Wine, so there could be additional steps, but in the interest of helping:
I believe you need the appropriate version of the VC++ redistributable (Visual Studio C++ runtime). You need to install the version that the application you try to run was compiled with. Just start with the latest one and install and then install older versions if need be. MSDN Forums.
Download
vc_redist.x64.exe
from
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=48145
from console run
wine uninstaller
uninstall any existing runtime version, then select "install" and browse for the vc_redist.x64.exe file, accept. Execute your Windows appplication

eclipse javafx variables unresolved

When I create a new javaFX project the javaFX variables are unresolved. I use java 8 (121) and eclipse Neon on which I installed e(fx)clipse. OS is Linux Mint 18.1. What I did:
I uninstalled and installed e(fx)clipse again, that didn't help
In another post I read that someone had solved the problem by adding
jfxrt.jar to the build path. I searched for this file but it is not present on my file system
Anybody any idea what is wrong in my setup?
Edit
James_D suggested adding openjfx. I read documentation of openjfx and it says that only a subset is implemented. I decided to install the oracle JDK and adjust the building path with a reference to the oracle version of jfxrt. That worked. I wonder whether it wouldn't be better to switch to the oracle version of JDK?

I stopped the installation of package abruptly in sdk manager in Linux. Thereafter the window does not open

I am using Android Studio in Ubuntu 14.4 lts. While installing certain packages through Sdk Manager, i stopped them, as i realized i didn't need them. After which i could not open the sdk manager altogether.
I tried running it from Android-Studio,
I tried running it from the terminal by entering the installed android folder then Sdk/tools and executing ./android as well as ./android sdk
I tried separately downloading stand-alone sdk tools and tried running it , but that didn't help too
I found such problems already dealt but in Windows, there the path is edited or the java_exe is set.
But i dint find any useful suggestion in case of Linux.
I am finding things really helpless by now. Please help!

Update nodejs in cygwin

Sometime back I've installed nodejs via cygwin which shows me the version 0.4.12 when I do node -v in bash.
Recently I've installed nodejs with the window installer which shows me the version 0.10.20 in window command prompt.
My Problem is I'm using Claymate for GumbyFramework in cygwin and it requires nodejs version above 0.8.0. How can I update the Nodejs in cygwin to the latest version?
Btw I'm using Windows Vista OS.
Pls. help!! Thanks in Advance..
Please know that Cygwin is not a supported platform. There would be a node version which would break things for you. The latest version that compiles natively on Cygwin is 0.4.12. Though the wiki page mentions some people had success building Node.js 0.10 on MinGW+MSYS. Try the following instructions : http://opensourcepack.blogspot.co.uk/2013/06/nodejs-with-posix-path-support.html
Don't mess with compile on Windows. You may want to just replace the old version Node.exe file with the newer Node.exe file on disk. You should be able to find the Cygwin folders within Windows explorer. You can search the entire disk, in windows not cygwin, for the file name node.exe. You should see the node.exe windows is finding, and the one cygwin is finding, under the cygwin folders.
Rename the cygwin node.exe and copy in the newer node.exe. Now, you nay get an issue with npm, in which case you may want to try the same thing with the npm folder.
I know cygwin isnt officially supported, but when you get it installed correctly it works.
