Change default username and/or password of phpMyAdmin in xampp


If you want to change  default username and/or password of your xampp for any reason like my one(Using different mySql already installed in my machine ).  You simply do the following.

1. Open phpMyAdmin’s config file. In my case I’am using xampp-1.7.4 the config file named config.inc.php in ../xampp/phpMyAdmin/.

2. Check if $cfg[‘Servers’][$i][‘auth_type’] = ‘config’ if it’s not ‘config’ but ‘cookie’ or ‘http’  then you need to create a new MySQL user account before you change those(username and password) values.

3. Now change the value of $cfg[‘Servers’][$i][‘user’]  and $cfg[‘Servers’][$i][‘password’].

Good luck with that.

9 Things That Motivate Employees More Than Money


Don’t show ’em the money (even if you have it). Here are nine better ways to boost morale.

The ability to motivate employees is one of the greatest skills an entrepreneur can possess. Two years ago, I realized I didn’t have this skill. So I hired a CEO who did.

Josh had 12 years in the corporate world, which included running a major department at Comcast. I knew he was seasoned, but I was still skeptical at first. We were going through some tough growing pains, and I thought that a lack of cash would make it extremely difficult to improve the company morale.

I was wrong.

With his help and the help of the great team leaders he put in place, Josh not only rebuilt the culture, but also created a passionate, hard-working team that is as committed to growing and improving the company as I am.

S60 View Architecture with UI Design For Symbian OS


Overview

This example shows how to develop S60 UI applications similar to the native “Settings” application available on every S60 device. This application was chosen because it has different views and uses tabs and a main view to switch between them. The example is based on the S60 UI view architecture.

The article discusses the view architecture and other architectures that can be used to develop UI applications. The example was developed using the Carbide S60 UI design. This article also gives some tips on using this tool.

This snippet can be self-signed.

Preconditions

This example requires using Carbide UI Design.

Background

There are three UI architecture options for developing applications: the traditional Symbian OS architecture, the S60 view architecture, and the dialog-based architecture.

Dialog-based architecture:

An architecture where most parts of the views are dialogs. In these cases multi-page dialogs act as multiple views.

Advantages:

  • Content and layout can be changed in the resource file without rebuilding the C++ code.

Disadvantages:

if(!retRd){
fileRd.Read(rcvr);
tDsply.Copy(rcvr);
