A Java centric implementation of the java service wrapper by Tanuki Software (JSW). Wrap a Java application as as Windows service or UNIX daemon.

Squill is a slick internal DSL for writing SQL queries in pure Java. It uses the database metadata and generics to catch as many errors as possible during compilation and is almost completely typesafe. At the same time it is designed to allow everything SQL allows you to do, exactly the way SQL is meant to do it. This means that you're encouraged to select only the data you need and no hidden queries are generated for you, leaving you in full control of the query performance. Squill also supports database-specific extensions, allowing you to both use advanced features and fully tweak your queries.

Reflections scans your classpath, indexes the metadata, allows you to query it on runtime and may save and collect that information for many modules within your project.

A java library for ODF

The project aims to integrate the Google Web Toolkit (GWT) and the Dojo framework. Indeed the Dojo framework is very rich in term of widgets and utilities (fisheye, slider, drag and drop functionality) and the main interest is to take benefits of the huge work which has been already done by the Dojo community. In other words, it means: the Dojo widgets become GWT widgets, the Dojo utilities become GWT helper.

best, fastest and most programmer friendly free CSV package for Java. Super Csv's unique features raises the bar and sets a new standard for CSV packages.

"Since 1994, the Java programming language evolved and became a valid tool to develop reliable and performant server applications as opposed to just applets and client applications. The major disadvantage of the Java platform is that still today the only portable way to start a Java application relies on a single point of entry: the public static void main(String[]) method. Having a single-point of entry is a valid solution for client applications, where interactively a user can command to the application to quit (which can terminate the Virtual Machine process at calling the System.exit(int) method), but in those cases where the application is not interactive (server applications) there is currently no portable way to notify the Virtual Machine of its imminent shutdown. A server application written in Java might have to perform several tasks before being able to shutdown the Virtual Machine process. For example in the case of a Servlet container, before the VM process is shut down, sessions might need to be serialized to disk, and web applications need to be destroyed. One common solution to this problem is to create (for example) a ServerSocket and wait for a particular message to be issued. When the message is received, all operations required to shut down the server applications are performed and at the end the System.exit method is called to terminate the Virtual Machine process. This method however, has several disadvantages and risks: In case of a system-wide shutdown, the Virtual Machine process may be shut down directly by the operating system without notifying the running server application. If an attacker finds out the shutdown message to send to the server and discovers a way to send this message, he can easily interrupt the server's operation, bypassing all the security restrictions implemented in the operating system. Most multi-user operating systems already have a way in which server applications are started and stopped. Under Unix based

XOM™ is a new XML object model. It is an open source (LGPL), tree-based API for processing XML with Java that strives for correctness, simplicity, and performance, in that order.

HttpClient Cache provides an HTTP/1.1-compliant caching layer to be used with HttpClient--the Java equivalent of a browser cache. The implementation follows the Decorator design pattern, where the CachingHttpClient class is a drop-in replacement for a DefaultHttpClient; requests that can be satisfied entirely from the cache will not result in actual origin requests. Stale cache entries are automatically validated with the origin where possible, using conditional GETs and the If-Modified-Since and/or If-None-Match request headers. HTTP/1.1 caching in general is designed to be semantically transparent; that is, a cache should not change the meaning of the request-response exchange between client and server. As such, it should be safe to drop a CachingHttpClient into an existing compliant client-server relationship. Although the caching module is part of the client from an HTTP protocol point of view, the implementation aims to be compatible with the requirements placed on a transparent caching proxy. Finally, CachingHttpClient includes support the Cache-Control extensions specified by RFC 5861 (stale-if-error and stale-while-revalidate).

This project will mainly contain utility stuff for diverse purpose. Initially it will primarily comprise of Spring Utilities which will perform the following purposes: Load a single resource properties file from pre-configured locations with priority based override. Application context registrar to make the context available to other interested components. Use Cacheable Jersey Client Use a generic RESTful WS Client OpenSearchDescriptor JAX-RS Provider based on XOM based DOM I/O Useful utilities for Atom Syndication Feed, such as pagination over entities, retrieval of resource to certain depth, etc.
