JMock is a library that supports test-driven development1 of Java2 code with mock objects3. Mock objects help you design and test the interactions between the objects in your programs.

"JMock is a library that supports test-driven development of Java code with mock objects. Mock objects help you design and test the interactions between the objects in your programs. The jMock library: makes it quick and easy to define mock objects, so you don't break the rhythm of programming. lets you precisely specify the interactions between your objects, reducing the brittleness of your tests. works well with the autocompletion and refactoring features of your IDE plugs into your favourite test framework is easy to extend."

lambdaj is a library that makes easier to address this issue by allowing to manipulate collections in a pseudo-functional and statically typed way. In our experience to iterate over collection, especially in nested loops, is often error prone and makes the code less readable. The purpose of this library is to alleviate these problems employing some functional programming techniques but without losing the static typing of java. We impose this last constraint to make refactoring easier and safer and allow the compiler to do its job.

contains a strictly compatible superset of the old Google Collections Library:

"Geotoolkit.org (abridged Geotk) is a free software, Java language library for developing geospatial applications. The library can be used for desktop or server applications. Geotk is the reference implementation of GeoAPI 3.0 interfaces."

XStream is a simple library to serialize objects to XML and back again. Features Ease of use. A high level facade is supplied that simplifies common use cases. No mappings required. Most objects can be serialized without need for specifying mappings. Performance. Speed and low memory footprint are a crucial part of the design, making it suitable for large object graphs or systems with high message throughput. Clean XML. No information is duplicated that can be obtained via reflection. This results in XML that is easier to read for humans and more compact than native Java serialization. Requires no modifications to objects. Serializes internal fields, including private and final. Supports non-public and inner classes. Classes are not required to have default constructor. Full object graph support. Duplicate references encountered in the object-model will be maintained. Supports circular references. Integrates with other XML APIs. By implementing an interface, XStream can serialize directly to/from any tree structure (not just XML). Customizable conversion strategies. Strategies can be registered allowing customization of how particular types are represented as XML. Error messages. When an exception occurs due to malformed XML, detailed diagnostics are provided to help isolate and fix the problem. Alternative output format. The modular design allows other output formats. XStream ships currently with JSON support and morphing.

Ajax Push enables real-time collaborative applications, based on a mechanism call ICEpush. Check out the Ajax Push overview before delving into the API. ICEpush Library - icepush.jar To enable Ajax Push with ICEfaces 2, you simply include the icepush.jar Library with your application.

"Joda-Money provides a library of classes to store amounts of money."

GlassFish equivalent to WebSphere's "shared libraries"

The SpringSource Bundle Repository provides OSGi-ready versions of hundreds of open source enterprise libraries that are commonly used when developing Spring applications.

Inflector is a Java API for forming plurals of words. The library supports English spellings, and is locale-aware so it is straightforward to customize for any language.

csv (comma-separated values) parser library for Java. It was developed because all of current csv parsers I've come across don't have commercial-friendly licenses.

JSON-lib is a java library for transforming beans, maps, collections, java arrays and XML to JSON and back again to beans and DynaBeans. It is based on the work by Douglas Crockford in http://www.json.org/java. The following tables sumarizes the types conversion between java and javascript:

"LMAX aims to be the fastest trading platform in the world. Clearly, in order to achieve this we needed to do something special to achieve very low-latency and high-throughput with our Java platform. Performance testing showed that using queues to pass data between stages of the system was introducing latency, so we focused on optimising this area. "

Database Change Management You never develop code without version control, why do you develop your database without it? Liquibase is an open source (Apache 2.0 Licensed), database-independent library for tracking, managing and applying database changes. It is built on a simple premise: All database changes are stored in a human readable yet trackable form and checked into source control. Liquibase Supports: Extensibility Merging changes from multiple developers Code branches Multiple Databases Managing production data as well as various test datasets Cluster-safe database upgrades Automated updates or generation of SQL scripts that can be approved and applied by a DBA Update rollbacks Database "diff"s Generating starting change logs from existing database

"Executing external processes from Java is a well-known problem area. It is inheriently platform dependent and requires the developer to know and test for platform specific behaviors, for example using cmd.exe on Windows or limited buffer sizes causing deadlocks. The JRE support for this is very limited, albeit better with the new Java SE 1.5 ProcessBuilder class. Reliably executing external processes can also require knowledge of the environment variables before or after the command is executed. In J2SE 1.1-1.4 there is not support for this, since the method, System.getenv(), for retriving environment variables is deprecated. There are currently several different libraries that for their own purposes have implemented frameworks around Runtime.exec() to handle the various issues outlined above. The proposed project should aim at coordinating and learning from these initatives to create and maintain a simple, reusable and well-tested package. Since some of the more problematic platforms are not readily available, it is my hope that the broad Apache community can be a great help."

Hades is a utility library to work with Data Access Objects implemented with Spring and JPA. The main goal is to ease the development and operation of a data access layer in application

"dom4j is an easy to use, open source library for working with XML, XPath and XSLT on the Java platform using the Java Collections Framework and with full support for DOM, SAX and JAXP. "

"Jaxen is an open source XPath library written in Java. It is adaptable to many different object models, including DOM, XOM, dom4j, and JDOM. Is it also possible to write adapters that treat non-XML trees such as compiled Java byte code or Java beans as XML, thus enabling you to query these trees with XPath too. "

A library of Generally Useful Stuff (tm) for developing applications, extensions or frameworks based on CDI (JSR-299: Java Contexts and Dependency Injection). A swiss army knife for CDI extension writers.
