jQuery is a fast, concise, JavaScript Library that simplifies how you traverse HTML documents, handle events, perform animations, and add Ajax interactions to your web pages. jQuery is designed to change the way that you write JavaScript.
Pedro is an application that creates data entry forms based on a data model written in a particular style of XML Schema. Users can enter data through the forms to create data files that conform to the schema. They can use controlled vocabularies to mark-up text fields and have the application perform basic validation on field data. When they feel they have finished writing a data file, Pedro can tell them if they have left out any required records.
HiberObjects is an Eclipse plugin for object oriented design of classes and unit tests for Java Persistence API or Hibernate. PropertyChange support and DTO's for Google Web Toolkit (GWT) can also be generated.
Apart from the very basic "add days" features, most business have to deal with Holidays and what to do when a calculated day falls on a holiday. This library does not attempt to create or guess the holidays, we all know that some bank holidays can be decided at a moment's notice in some markets. All financial institutions or big business will have their own official list of 'holidays' anyway.
Furthermore, "weekends" also need to be handled and some market have a different week to the conventional Monday -> Friday, our library provides you with full flexibility to design a Working Week.
As such a Non-working Day can be a holiday or a 'weekend'.
JTreeMap releases 2 components:
* a Java Swing component JTreeMap and a demo app.
* a SWT/Eclipse Plugin component, KTreeMap
Furthermore, the JTreeMap library contains an applet that could be used out of the box as it can read data in from a file on the web site, see this example.
a tool for measuring code metrics of Java applications. Contrary to other tools, Meaxure works with Java source files instead of class files and aims to be extendable. Currently Meaxure supports common metrics like lines of code, number of classes, number of methods or cyclomatic complexity. Due to it's reliance on source files it does not support metrics which cannot be calculated from individual source files like depth of inheritance tree or number of children.
Meaxure supports reporting violations to certain metrics. Rules for violations can be specified using XPath expressions,
myhttp is a basic web service engine for MySQL. It all you to perform basic HTTP method operations, like PUT, GET, and DELETE from MySQL as though it was a table. For example:
CREATE TABLE `d` (`a` varchar(125), b text, primary key(a)) ENGINE=HTTP DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 CONNECTION="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/";
This would allow you to fetch pages from Wikipedia from SQL SELECT calls.
SchemaCrawler is a command-line tool to output your database schema and data in a readable form. The output is designed to be diff-ed with previous versions of your database schema. SchemaCrawler is also an API that improves on the standard JDBC metadata.
Application Ermodeller is a free CASE tool for data modelling which is built in Java. This tool supports conceptual and logical data modelling and in the final step, it allows to create physical model that is specific for particular DBMS.
The basic idea is to support development of database via ER modelling in three levels of abstraction:
* conceptual
* logical
* physical
This separation allows to create database model independent on the particular database system. You may create conceptual model and logical model that are independent on any DBMS. Then, you may generate physical model for each DBMS you will use. Afterwards, physical models allows you to generate SQL data definition for your target DBMS.
The Beryl XML GUI library was written to ease the development of graphical user interfaces using Swing on Java. It lets you store user interfaces as XML markup. This will help you avoid unnecessary clutter in your source - Swing code mixed with application logic can become a troublesome and hard to read mess as the application size increases. The library comes with a visual component builder, which makes development a breeze. The most important features are:
Develop a java-based tool that manages the life-cycle of the database schema and generates code and documentation artifacts. The tool transforms an XML description of a database schema into an HTML data dictionary, SQL scripts to create the database, and Java data access code. The tool automatically updates the documentation, scripts, and code as the schema is changed and updated. The tool also provides a simple but powerful data access programming model and framework for developing custom data access code. The generated Java code conforms to the Data Access Object (DAO) and Value Object (AKA Data Transfer Object) patterns that are described in the J2EE Java Blueprints.
The Milyn Project is building Open-Source Java components for XML and non-XML Processing.
Smooks
Smooks is a Java framework for managing and performing Fragment Based XML Processing (Transformation/Analysis).
Smooks can be used in conjunction with or as an alternative to XSLT for XML Transformation.
Smooks gives you more control when performing XML Transformations and Analysis by giving you the freedom to use the tools and programming languages most appropriate to the type of transformation in question (or your skillset).
* Mix and Match different tools and languages in the process of transforming a single message/document e.g. it may be easier to transform one part of the document using pure Java and another part using XSLT.
* Simplify your XSLT and StringTemplate Templates by combining the power of the Smooks Javabean and Templating Cartiridges.
* Analyse/Read your XML and non-XML data into named Javabeans using the Smooks Javabean Cartiridge.

WinRun4j is a java launcher for Windows. It provides an alternative to javaw.exe and provides the following benefits:
* Use of INI file for specifying classpath, main class, vm args, program args.
* Custom executable name that appears in task manager.
* Additional VM args for (eg.) more flexible memory use.
* Built-in icon replacer for custom icon.
WinRun4J is licensed under the Common Public License (CPL).
Artifactory is a Maven2 proxy repository with advanced features. It is based on JCR (using JackRabbit as the implementation), with a web UI based on Wicket, and embeded Jetty for quick start. All artifacts are stored in an embedded Derby DB.
Dependometer is a java based analysis tool for java projects.
Features are:
Use a logical architecture description in terms of Layers and Subsystems and their physical mapping (n Packages implement a Subsystem) and check logical architecture violations.
* Analyze the dependency architecture between Layers, Subsystems, Packages, Compilation Units (Java files) and Types (Classes and Interfaces)
* Calculate a bunch of metrics for all elements - this includes metrics from John Lakos, Robert C. Martin and Craig Larman
* Analyze cycles between elements
* Define thresholds and receive feedback upon their violation
Simulate via simple refactoring definitions and cutting unwanted dependencies changes to the physical structure possibly enhancing refactoring.
Create a complete HTML presentation via xslt. This provides browsing capabilities from Layer (logical element) to Compilation Unit (physical element) for a discussion which physical elements cause the logical architecture to break.
The Synapse project is a robust, lightweight implementation of a highly scalable and distributed service mediation framework based on Web services and XML specifications.
iValidator is a framework for XML-based test automation of complex test scenarios. iValidator is completely written in Java. The framework is available under an open source licence.
One of the biggest promises of Business Process Management was that the business people can model and execute their business processes without involvement from IT folks. This promise was kept in a simple workflow sceanarios by utilizing limited number of 'built-in' activity types of BPMS packages but once you face little more complex business process sceanarios providing transactional integration with existing software and complex interactions with human beings, this limited expression power make it hard to drag and drop process modeling, and finally it brings a huge help from software vendors or system integrators and write a lot of code that is making processes utterly inflexible downstream. That means, concurrent BPMS is extremely lack in something like 'Technical Abstraction' and 'Expression Extensibility'.
