Nifty Java Developer Toolset
Recently, I stumbled upon
http://www.shiftone.org/ They have got some
REAL nice toys in their toolbox, I must say. I was impressed. Actually,
except ExQ I quite loved all of them. I don\‘t see the value of ExQ
since I am a big believer in Hibernate but if you are still in the age
of raw SQL - maybe you will find ExQ useful, too.
But other projects are real, real cool. I have been looking for an OOC
JNDI for a while, now. Arbor XML Processor is nice, too. I\‘ve begun
using JRat and find it very useful for JDK1.4 projects because of its
significantly low overhead (as opposed to OptimizeIt, JProbe et al). I
will definitely look into joCache. Just by description it looks like it
could be JBossCache done right :-)
All of the products are very user-friendly and comfy to use.
Two thumbs up to ShiftOne!
