How can I convert a Spotfire dxp file from version 6 to an older version, i.e. 5.5 ?
Please let me know if I should clarify anything regarding this question.
Spotfire is not backwards compatible. The only thing you can do is rebuild it.
Added: To avoid confusion around forward / backwards compatible.
This means that you can open .dxp files saved with older versions of TIBCO Spotfire with newer versions, but you can not open files that are saved with a higher/newer version of Spotfire than that you are you are using.

I've build a complete empty Project and I got this error:
e: This version (1.0.0-alpha13) of the Compose Compiler requires Kotlin version 1.4.30 but you appear to be using Kotlin version 1.4.32 which is not known to be compatible. Please fix your configuration (or suppressKotlinVersionCompatibilityCheck but don't say I didn't warn you!).
What can I do? (Sorry for this dumb question, but I'm complete new to Kotlin)
Thanks, Boothosh
You can go to Plugins in the IDE settings and uninstall the Kotlin one there, and do Install From Disk (under the gear icon) and use one of these: https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/6954-kotlin/versions - you'd probably need to update your gradle files too (I haven't done any of this before so I can't tell you if it works or if you'll run into problems)
Why not just use a newer version of Compose though? They're up to beta 6 now - I can't even see an alpha 13 listed! Seems like a better idea all round, unless there's a really specific reason you need that version you're using?
I am distributing my software by wrapping the application exe in NSIS installation wizard. I use HM NIS edit software for editing the NSIS scripts. I recently got my editor frozen when I hovered on the default functions of NSIS like 'SetCompressor', 'BrandingText' etc. This is happening only in one system regardless of user. I tried to recreate the error but failed to do so.
The error occurred on the system with windows 7 professional OS, NSIS version 2.45, HM NIS edit version 2.0.3.
I re-installed the NSIS and HM NIS edit software but still the editor gets frozen when hovered. I searched on the internet about it but found no such error. I also compared the installed files against the installed files without error but found no difference. I used beyond compare tool to compare the file. So by this I concluded that there is no file corruption.
Please help me to solve this error.
This sounds like a bug and should be reported on their bug tracker. HM NIS Edit has not been updated in over 10 years so I'm not sure if I would hold my breath waiting for a fix.
You are also using a old NSIS version! At least update to the latest v2.x. This is probably not going to fix your issue though.
The two most likely reasons for freezing are:
Bug while parsing the syntax file. Rather unlikely since it works on other systems but you could try to update the files.
Bug while displaying the tooltip. Maybe the problematic system is using a special Visual Style/Theme? Non-standard visual settings relating to shadow or animation?
I installed and used a UML plugin found here: UML Plugin for Netbeans 7.0?
Afterword, all of my .java code associated with the UML became black and white and un-editable. Although, I can write extra text it cannot be deleted. Running my project results in "Cannot execute - java executable not found".
I deleted the UML files associated with my projects and the code hasn't returned to normal.
Thanks.
Here is a picture:
This actually occurred to all java files.
Unlike Eclipse, different versions of NetBeans are so different that plugins made for younger versions (6) DO NOT work on later versions (8) by default. You can upgrade only subversions steps (digits after dot) without changing plugins. So you have used two pieces of SW that need not be compatible at all. You used a workaround to make to work the installation. And you can get absolutely any consequences, don't be surprised.
The history of the problem: there is no free UML plugin supporting NetBeans NOW. There was one, of Visual Paradigm, for versions to 6. But it's later variants are not free anymore and they are differently organized. If you want to use the modern version of the plugin, prepare to pay. It is very probable, that the free plugin doesn't work on NetBeans 8 by purpose.
You can try a new different plugin http://plugins.netbeans.org/plugin/49069/plantuml#v2590 of another author. It seems more simple, but at least it won't destroy your IDE. And now you have to save the project, reinstall NetBEans and import the project again.
Is JDK7 backward compatible with JDK 6? Specifically, if I have some jars compiled using JDK6, will I able to use them while developing in JDK7?
Is JDK7 backward compatible with JDK 6?
Read official document about incompatibilities between JDK 6 and 7
Look at this table for independent analysis of API changes. The backward binary and source compatibility of Jre classes between 6 and 7 versions is estimated at 95%:
...
The report is generated by the japi-compliance-checker tool.
You'll be able to use class files from previous JREs/JDKs. Compatibility forwards is supported. However you won't be able to go backwards (e.g. JDK7 to an earlier JRE/JDK). The class file format for JDK7 has changed to reflect such things as invokedynamic.
Some more in-depth information discussed here.
Yes, you can certainly use older .jar files and .class files in your current development with newer compilers :)
what is this Error, and how to resolve it?
I am using Visual studio 2005 for Smart device MFC developement,
Is upgrading to 2008 can solve my problem.
Error 85 error RC2176 : old DIB in res\icon3.ico; pass it through SDKPAINT
Thanks
this might help you:

It looks like vista icons now use PNG headers. The error is slightly false though as its not an old DIB its just a header it doesn't recognize, PNG.
How was that icon created? Long ago Visual C++ 6.0 had its own little way of creating icon .ico files. Probably not using PNG so this might be the way to go is to find some program to emulate that and create an icon using the old DIB way. Or upgrading to 2008 :)
Actually there is another way not mentioned here in the other answers.
If you would install and integrate a more recent (same or later release date than VS 2008) SDK with VS 2005, that also resolves it. You can also go to C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\bin (or your equivalent of the path) and replace the files rcdll.dll and rc.exe with the ones from a more recent VS, WDK or SDK.
Side-note: the version of rcdll.dll and rc.exe must match, that is you need to copy both at once from your source (be it VS, WDK or SDK). For me any version starting with 6.0 or 6.1 worked. That's any version starting from the compilers that accompanied the Vista SDKs and VS versions or later.
There are actually 2 situations I've encountered that lead to this error RC2176.
As you probably know, a Windows .ICO file can contain multiple images for different sizes and color depth. VS2005 throws this error in at least two situations (unrelated to DIB)
.PNG images in the icon (as described in Codejoy's answer)
256x256 or larger images in the icon
By using GIMP to shrink the largest image size to 128x128, and avoiding .PNG, the problem is resolved with VS2005. Or, upgrade to a newer VS ;)
I had this problem in VS2012 for which I googled but didn't find anything else but this link to a MSDN site which talked about opening it up with sdk-paint , so in my project I doubleclicked the icon that was responsible for the error and deleted the PNG format and voila program started.

The compressed/packed 256x256 was the problem for me. Once I unchecked the option to save as compressed (for Vista) in my icon editor app, the problem went away.
There is another situation I encountered which triggered the error, that is a corrupted PNG file. I've used the sed command to globally replace some strings in the project folder, and it just replaced the (looks liked) windows line ending to UNIX one, which caused my image files corrupted.
So, maybe there are some bugs in the PNG parser of MFC library, which cannot handle malformed input files.
Best resolution I have come across is from Axialis where they offer guidance of saving the ICO file in uncompressed PNG format.
