This document is a guide to help troubleshoot problems that might arise with applications that are developed using the Sun Microsystems Inc. release of Java Platform, Standard Edition 6 (JDK 6 release or Java SE 6 release). In particular, this guide addresses possible problems between the applications and the Java HotSpot virtual machine. The document provides a description of the tools, command line options, and other help in analyzing a problem. The document also provides guidance on how to approach some general issues such as a crash, hang, or memory resource issues. Finally, the document provides direction for data collection and bug report preparation.
EasyBeans is an open-source Enterprise Java Beans (EJB) container hosted by the OW2 consortium. The License used by EasyBeans is the LGPL.
EasyBeans main goal is to ease the development of Enterprise Java Beans. It uses some new architecture design like the bytecode injection (with ASM ObjectWeb tool), IoC, POJO and can be embedded in OSGi bundles or other frameworks (Spring, Eclipse plugins, etc.).
It aims to provide an EJB3 container as specified in the Java Platform Enterprise Edition (Java EE) in its fifth version. It means that Session beans (Stateless or Stateful), Message Driven Beans (MDB) are available on EasyBeans.
The new persistence layer used by EJB 3.0 is now called Java Persistence API (or JPA). It replaces the CMP (Container Managed Persistence) model used by EJB 2.x. The default persistence provider used in EasyBeans is Hibernate Entity Manager or Apache OpenJPA but other JPA providers have been tested like for example Oracle TopLink Essentials.
Grasshopper is a Visual Studio-based SDK and patented .NET to Java converter that enables you to run .NET Web and server applications to run on Linux® and other Java-enabled platforms.
10gen is a new platform-as-a-service technology designed to help developers quickly and easily build dynamic, scalable, mission critical web sites and applications.
The 10gen software stack is analogous to Google App Engine in that it provides a new stack of tools (database, grid management, application server) that are purpose-built to run in a cloud environment.
1T3XT offers a suite of products that are useful to create and/or manipulate documents, more specifically PDF and RTF documents. There's some support for XML and HTML, but this isn't the core business of iText.
DB Schema Viewer is an Eclipse plugin that builds a graphical view of an existing database. Reverse Engineering is performed through JDBC. The most popular databases are currently supported:
* MySQL
* PostgreSQL
* Firebird
ClassMock is a framework that helps the creation of unit tests for components that use reflection or annotations. In this kind of classes, the behavior is dependent of the class structure. This way, each test case usually works with a different class created specifically for the test. With ClassMock is possible to define and generate classes in runtime, allowing a better test readability and logic sharing between tests.
The Pager Tag Library is the easy and flexible way to implement paging of large data sets in JavaServer Pages (JSP). It can emulate all currently known paging styles with minimal effort. It also includes re-usable index styles that emulate the search result navigators of popular web sites such as GoogleSM, AltaVista® and Yahoo!. The Pager Tag Library does most of the work for you by dynamically organizing your data set into pages and generating a browsable index with virtually any look desired.
For those of you who've got into it you'll know that test driven development is great. It gives you the confidence to change code safe in the knowledge that if something breaks you'll know about it. Except for those bits you don't know how to test. Until now XML has been one of them. Oh sure you can use "<stuff></stuff>".equals("<stuff></stuff>"); but is that really gonna work when some joker decides to output a <stuff/>? -- damned right it's not ;-)
Your users want to customize formulas. They know Excel or OpenOffice.
// Compile price finding factory and strategy implementation from spreadsheet:
EngineBuilder builder = SpreadsheetCompiler.newEngineBuilder();
builder.loadSpreadsheet( new File( PATH, "CustomPriceFormula.xls" ) );
builder.setFactoryClass( PriceFinderFactory.class );
builder.bindAllByName();
Engine engine = builder.compile();
PriceFinderFactory factory = (PriceFinderFactory) engine.getComputationFactory();
// Use it to compute a line item price:
LineItem item = getCurrentLineItem();
PriceFinder priceFinder = factory.newInstance( item );
BigDecimal price = priceFinder.getPrice();
Compile parametrized spreadsheets directly to bytecode.
* No need to have Excel, OpenOffice, or a JDK installed.
* Native speed, thread safe execution.
* Bind directly to your computation strategy interfaces.
* Using double, or BigDecimal for financial applications.
* Available under the GPL and commercially (details).
Abbot helps you test your Java UI. It comprises Abbot, which lets you programmatically drive UI components, and Costello (built on Abbot) which allows you to easily launch, explore and control an application. The framework may be used with both scripts and compiled code.
Abeille Forms Designer is a GUI builder for Java applications. Developers and designers can create complex, professional forms in minutes. Designers can drag and drop components onto a WYSIWYG editor. Full support for undo/redo and copy/paste is provided. Components can be easily customized by adding images or modifying their properties. Advanced fill effects are supported such as textures and gradients.
Abeille has intuitive layout rules and is based on the JGoodies FormLayout system (https://forms.dev.java.net). The FormLayout is a popular, open source layout manager for Java and is used by thousands of developers worldwide. Abeille comes with all the required software.
Abeille stores forms in binary files which can be loaded by your application and added to any Swing container. While the designer is licensed under the LGPL, the forms runtime has a BSD license. This allows forms created by the designer to be used freely in commercial applications.

* Supports Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X.
Runa WFE is an environment for JBoss jBPM workflow engine. It is a cross-platform end user solution for business process development and execution. Together Runa WFE and JBoss jBPM provide an easy to use business process management system.
Runa WFE is an open source project.
What is this project
Runa WFE provides:
* an end user GUI to define business processes without any coding: draw flowcharts, define roles and variables, lay out forms
* an end user GUI to load and execute processes
* an administrative interface to create and remove users/groups and grant rights
* a possibility of writing automatic "bots" that can participate in business processes
* a possibility to code new GUI elements, variable types, organizational structure functions etc. that extend existing Runa WFE components and will be available to end users through the GUI
Runa WFE makes it possible to integrate your diverse enterprise applications in a unified system, by using "bots" that run inside "bot stations".
When the only thing you've got is a XML Hammer, every solution looks like XML.
The XML Hammer application is a free and open-source tool that simplifies elementary XML actions like checking for well-formedness, validation, transformation and xpath searches using any JAXP implementation.
After all these years of XML, it is still relatively difficult to simply validate or transform XML files. You are currently either forced to use extensive, sometimes expensive, and most often difficult to use tools with a lot of extra functionality unnecessary for these simple tasks and very often not flexible enough to provide what you want, or you will have to be almost a programmer and create your own application or script to handle these elementary XML related tasks.
The XML Hammer tool addresses these issues by providing a free and open-source tool that has a (relatively) simple to use user-interface however still allowing the flexibility for the user to specify anything that he/she would have been able to specify when writing a script for this same task him/herself.
The functionality of the XML Hammer tool is based on the capabilities provided by the Java API for XML Processing (JAXP) and supports the JAXP API as fully as possible. To achieve this, the functionality has been divided into five specific project types:
Juxta is an open-source tool for comparing and collating multiple witnesses to a single textual work.
