This package specifies a means for obtaining objects in such a way as to maximize reusability, testability and maintainability compared to traditional approaches such as constructors, factories, and service locators (e.g., JNDI). This process, known as dependency injection, is beneficial to most nontrivial applications.

Many types depend on other types. For example, a Stopwatch might depend on a TimeSource. The types on which a type depends are known as its dependencies. The process of finding an instance of a dependency to use at run time is known as resolving the dependency. If no such instance can be found, the dependency is said to be unsatisfied, and the application is broken.

This package provides a Java runtime environment for and Java development kit. It supports enhanced class redefinition (DCEVM), includes a number of improvements in font rendering, keyboards support, windowing/focus subsystems, HiDPI, accessibility, and performance, provides better desktop integration and bugfixes not yet present in OpenJDK.

Xbean-reflect provides very flexible ways to create objects and graphs of objects for dependency injection frameworks

This package provides the Java development kit OpenJDK.

JTidy is a Java port of HTML Tidy, a HTML syntax checker and pretty printer. Like its non-Java cousin, JTidy can be used as a tool for cleaning up malformed and faulty HTML. In addition, JTidy provides a DOM interface to the document that is being processed, which effectively makes it a Java HTML parser.

MVEL has largely been inspired by Java syntax, but has some fundamental differences aimed at making it more efficient as an expression language, such as operators that directly support collection, array and string matching, as well as regular expressions. MVEL is used to evaluate expressions written using Java syntax.

In addition to the expression language, MVEL serves as a templating language for configuration and string construction.

JCS is a distributed caching system written in Java. It is intended to speed up applications by providing a means to manage cached data of various dynamic natures. Like any caching system, JCS is most useful for high read, low put applications. Latency times drop sharply and bottlenecks move away from the database in an effectively cached system.

LMAX Disruptor is a software pattern and software component for high performance inter-thread communication that avoids the need for message queues or resource locking.

This package provides compile-time annotations such as @SuppressFBWarnings and @ExcludeFromCodeCoverageGeneratedReport.

PowerMock is a framework that extends other mock libraries such as EasyMock with more powerful capabilities. PowerMock uses a custom classloader and bytecode manipulation to enable mocking of static methods, constructors, final classes and methods, private methods, removal of static initializers and more. By using a custom classloader no changes need to be done to the IDE or continuous integration servers which simplifies adoption.

Commons-Exec simplifies executing external processes.

This package provides the Java development kit OpenJDK built with the IcedTea build harness.

This package contains an implementation of the JSR-341 specification for the expression language 3.0. It implements an expression language inspired by ECMAScript and XPath. This language is used with JavaServer Pages (JSP).

JLine is a Java library for handling console input. It is similar in functionality to BSD editline and GNU readline but with additional features that bring it in par with ZSH line editor. People familiar with the readline/editline capabilities for modern shells (such as bash and tcsh) will find most of the command editing features of JLine to be familiar.

This package includes the line reader.

This package provides the common Eclipse runtime.

ASM is an all purpose Java bytecode manipulation and analysis framework. It can be used to modify existing classes or dynamically generate classes, directly in binary form. The provided common transformations and analysis algorithms allow easily assembling custom complex transformations and code analysis tools.

This package provides the native library for jansi, a small Java library that allows you to use ANSI escape sequences to format your console output.

OSGi, for Open Services Gateway initiative framework, is a module system and service platform for the Java programming language. This package contains the OSGi Core module.

Java Compiler Compiler (JavaCC) is the most popular parser generator for use with Java applications. A parser generator is a tool that reads a grammar specification and converts it to a Java program that can recognize matches to the grammar. In addition to the parser generator itself, JavaCC provides other standard capabilities related to parser generation such as tree building (via a tool called JJTree included with JavaCC), actions, debugging, etc.

OSGi, for Open Services Gateway initiative framework, is a module system and service platform for the Java programming language. This package contains the Data Transfer Objects. It is easily serializable having only public fields of primitive types and their wrapper classes, Strings, and DTOs. List, Set, Map and array aggregates may also be used. The aggregates must only hold objects of the listed types or aggregates.

Gson is a Java library that can be used to convert Java Objects into their JSON representation. It can also be used to convert a JSON string to an equivalent Java object. Gson can work with arbitrary Java objects including pre-existing objects that you do not have source-code of.

Ivy is a tool for managing (recording, tracking, resolving and reporting) project dependencies. It is characterized by the following:

• flexibility and configurability - Ivy is essentially process agnostic and is not tied to any methodology or structure. Instead it provides the necessary flexibility and configurability to be adapted to a broad range of dependency management and build processes.

• tight integration with Apache Ant - while available as a standalone tool, Ivy works particularly well with Apache Ant providing a number of powerful Ant tasks ranging from dependency resolution to dependency reporting and publication.

OSGi, for Open Services Gateway initiative framework, is a module system and service platform for the Java programming language. This package contains the packageadmin service.

Bouncy Castle is a cryptographic library for the Java programming language.
