Jikes RVM is a compiler that translates JavaTM source files as defined in The Java Language Specification into the bytecoded instruction set and binary format defined in The Java Virtual Machine Specification.

You may wonder why the world needs another Java compiler, considering that Sun provides javac free with its SDK. Jikes has five advantages that make it a valuable contribution to the Java community: [OSI Certified Logo]

* Open source. Jikes is OSI Certified Open Source Software. OSI Certified is a certification mark of the Open Source Initiative.
* Strictly Java compatible. Jikes strives to adhere to both The Java Language Specification and The Java Virtual Machine Specification as tightly as possible, and does not support subsets, supersets, or other variations of the language. The FAQ describes some of the side effects of this strict language conformance.
* High performance. Jikes is a high performance compiler, making it ideal for use with larger projects.
* Dependency analysis. Jikes performs a dependency analysis on your code that provides two very useful features: Incremental builds and makefile generation.
* Constructive Assistance. Jikes strives to help the programmer write better code in two key ways. Jikes has always strived to provide clear error and warning text to assist the programmer in understanding problems, and now with release 1.19 Jikes helps point out common programming mistakes as documented in Effective Java.

Abridged from a FAQ entry which was adapted from some material by Lou Grinzo for an article he wrote.

The fact that Jikes is a high-performance, highly compatible Java compiler that can be used on almost any computing platform makes it an interesting program and worth investigating for almost any Java programmer. But Jikes is also notable because it lies at the center of two events: the adoption of open source philosophy and practice by large corporations, and the continued growth of Java for Linux.

Its worth pointing out that Jikes is not, and is not intended to be, a complete development environment -- it is simply a command line compiler. It should not be considered a replacement for more complete tools, such as Source Navigator or IBMs VisualAge for Java which provide sophisticated graphical IDEs (Integrated Development Environments).

The Jikes compiler was released in binary form in April 1997 on the IBM alphaWorks site. Jikes for Linux was released on 15 July 1998. The response was overwhelming -- Jikes had more downloads in the three months after the announcement than in the fifteen months before the announcement.

Around the end of March 2002, IBM opened a fledgling community hosting location attached to their developerWorks site with Jikes as a founding member. Approximately 3 years later this server was decommissioned and the most active projects migrated into SourceForge.net hosting options. During those three years Jikes was the #1 most popular project every month, often by a large margin. We approached nearly 250,000 downloads while residing at dw/oss, and had been consistently tallying triple digit daily downloads.

Release of Jikes for Linux was soon followed by requests to open up the source. Many notes and comments from users suggested this would be a good idea. The source was released under a liberal license in December 1998 to make a very visible demonstration of IBMs commitment to open standards and to Java Technology, to make Jikes more reliable and accessible, to encourage more widespread use of Java Technology, to encourage standardization of Java Technology, and to gain some experience actually running an open source project. This marked the start of one of IBMs first efforts in the open source arena.

The original alphaWorks version of Jikes was written by Philippe Charles and Dave Shields of the IBM T. J. Watson Research Center. For awhile after the release of the source they continued to work on the compiler as contributors; however, shortly after the project migrated to developerWorks Open Source Server they were officially moved off onto other projects within IBM. Today there are no IBMers who work on Jikes as part of their job description. Jikes survives today soley based on the free time contributions of members of the open source community.

The source code is available under IBMs Public License, which has been approved by the OSI (Open Source Initiative) as a fully certified open source license. The project provides access to the complete CVS development tree, which includes not only Jikes, but also the source for the Jacks Test Suite and the Jikes Parser Generator used to build Jikes. Jikes is included in many Open Source Operating Systems. The Jacks Test Suite is a replacement for the Jikestst package.

Vimplugin project is a Eclipse plugin that brings the power of the editor Vim to the Eclipse IDE.

Vim is one of the most powerful editors around. But it is not an IDE. On the other hand, Eclipse is one of the most powerful IDEs. But its editor lacks many of the features vim offers. Vim is lean, Eclipse is extensible. So, just take the best of two worlds.

Vimplugin is based on vim tip #1031 (thanks to Pavel Tavoda)and relies heavily on JTA, a swing-based java terminal emulator and the SWT_AWT bridge of Eclipse 3.1.

Vimplugin is meant to be truely open source. It is developed by a community of developers with similar interests. Its a project for volunteers who want to have vim at hand when working inside eclipse. So in theory everyone whos interested in the tool has the ability to contribute (knows java, knows vim ...). But even if you dont want to contribute, please drop us a line on the mailing list or the forums. That will greatly encourage us to go on.

The home of the community is the mailing list "vimplugin-devel". You can post questions, installation problems, submit feature request or just say that you like the tool. At the same time, you will get informed about everything that goes on (new features, releases etc).

iloog project is a Gentoo-based LiveCD produced by the Ioannina Linux User Group (I.L.U.G.), targeted mainly at students and scientists.
Our purpose is to create a multi-purpose tool that will suit the needs of our growing user-base through a continuous ad-hoc process that follows the "release early, release often" paradigm.
Main features:
- ISOLINUX boot loader for increased compatibility with older hardware
- UnionFS filesystem support that enables you to write everywhere on the LiveCD and install extra packages
- Graphical X environment through the Fluxbox window manager (see the screenshots)
- Many programming editors and IDEs, including: Vim, nano, Anjuta, Kdevelop
- A plethora of scientific applications, including: Octave, Namd, Tinker, Merlin
- Fits, conveniently, in a 700MB CD

JDBCPersistence project is an Object Relational Mapping Framework. Designed for use in high volume online banking application the package delivers performance matching of that exhibited by hand written JDBC code.

The differentiating features of JDBCPersistence are a result of the focus placed first and foremost on performance followed by making programmer most effective by building on existing knowledge of SQL, JDBC APIs, IDEs and, at the same time, avoiding creation of dependencies on specific libraries, tools, IDEs.

The framework strikes a good balance in what it provides verses what it requires a programmer to do in order to use it, e.g. a programmer could quickly prototype value objects by specifying them as Java interfaces and asking the framework to provide implementation for these interfaces at runtime, thus allowing to go from specifying an interface to using it in no time.

On the other hand, recognizing that data relationships are governed by business rules much more complex than could be specified in a typical ORM configuration file, a programmer is required to maintain such relationships in code.

The focus of the framework is to provide ORM services while leaving other concerns, in particular, data caching, up to the developer to solve in the context of an application. Being aware that the caching requirements may be different in online vs. batch application, the framework does not prescribe a solution. Developer needs to decide on application specific caching policy and implement it in an architectural layer (DAO) designed to function in both contexts.

The framework does not add any behavior to the classes that comprise the application. Classes supplied by the developer are the classes that will be used by the application when it runs.

JDBCPersistence uses bytecode generation technique to create bytecode for classes that implement logic used for persisting the data. Such, for every, loosely speaking "Java Bean", that requires persistence, a persistor class that implements CRUD operations is created. As opposed to using reflection, the approach of generating bytecode is apt to further optimization by JVM.

JDBCPersistence takes bytecode generation a little further by providing a feature that allows generating complete implementation of a value object specified as an abstract class. Similar to generating full implementation for Java interface class that describes value object class, the framework can generate implementation for all abstract methods of an abstract class representing value object.

As all of the bytecode generation takes place at run time, there is no impact on development or build process. The approach of generating bytecode at runtime is also used by RMI implementation of the Java Platform starting with version 5.0.

The API of the framework builds on the existing JDBC APIs. JDBCPersistences public API adds four classes and three interfaces. As the framework uses SQL for queering the data a curve associated with learning framework specific query language is avoided.

In an attempt to "keep it simple" JDBCPersistence only dependency is ASM, which is used for bytecode generation. The footprint of the package is under 200K.

WWW::Yahoo::DrivingDirections is a Perl module to generate driving directions for multiple-stop trips in the United States, courtesy of maps.yahoo.com.

ABSTRACT

Object-oriented interface to the maps.yahoo.com driving directions.

SYNOPSIS

use WWW::Yahoo::DrivingDirections;
my $yd = WWW::Yahoo::DrivingDirections->new ();
$yd->add_stops ( @ARGV );
$yd->get_maps();
or
use WWW::Yahoo::DrivingDirections;
my $yd = WWW::Yahoo::DrivingDirections->new (
{
roundtrip => 1,
return_html => 1,
save_html => 0,
save_format => output_%d.html,
},
atlanta, ga,
123 fake st, boston, ma,
0 church st, cambridge, ma,
LAX,
);
$yd->add_stops ( paris, tx, 1 main st, springfield, IL );
$yd->roundtrip ( 1 );
$html_array_ref = $yd->get_maps();

WWW::Yahoo::DrivingDirections provides a simple means of generating driving directions for trips with more stops than a start and a finish. Driving from LAX airport to 1 Main St, Portland, OR to Denver, CO? Just do this:

use WWW::Yahoo::DrivingDirections;
my $yd = WWW::Yahoo::DrivingDirections->new (
LAX, 1 Main St, Portland, OR, Denver, CO
);
$yd->get_maps();

and the directions will be saved in trip_leg_1.html and trip_leg_2.html.

XEmacs was formerly known as Lucid Emacs and is a powerful, extensible text editor with full GUI support, initially based on an early version of GNU Emacs 19 from the Free Software Foundation and since kept up to ate with recent versions of that product.

XEmacs stems from a collaboration of Lucid, Inc. with Sun Microsystems, Inc. and the University of Illinois with additional support having been provided by Amdahl Corporation, INS Engineering Corporation, and a huge amount of volunteer effort.
