Welcome to Jade Utilities project.
This library contains utilities whose goal is to simplify and speed up application development.
These utilities include form processing, database definition, data conversion and validation, database
interaction (retrieving, updating, etc) as well as a set of general purpose stand-alone tools that are
useful for the deployment and maintenance of web applications. A summary of each package is given below.
data Package - Database Modeling and Interface
This package contains classes to manage data processing. This package is divided into two main components:
- RDBMS modeling module allows you to model your data and generate SQL scripts, data dictionary
documentation and Java record classes.
- DB interface module provides classes that are used to interface with the database using JDBC.
doclet Package - Javadoc Extensions
This package contains classes allow for improved documentation when generating Javadocs. This package
provides the following:
- A set of classes that extend and implement Sun's
com.sun.tools.doclets.standard.Standard Standard doclet interface to allow multiple
doclets to be used when generating documentation.
- A Subdoclet that provides database schema documentation for the data package.
- A Subdoclet that provides documentation tag libraries.
forms Package - Form Processing
This package contains set of classes and JSP tags that handle with form processing and data presentation.
The package interfaces with the model data to move data between the data access layer and the JSP page.
text Package - Data Validation and Rendering
This package contains utilities for rendering that text will be viewed by a user of the application as well
as validation of application data that has been edited by the user.
tools Package - Checked FTP
Checked FTP is a general purpose utility that will transfer a directory of files to and from a FTP server.
It can be called from the command line or programmatically.
What makes this different from a simple batch FTP transfer is that the utility follows a strategy that
ensures that the directory is fully transferred and acknowledged by the receiving system. By calling the
utility on a schedule you can automate the ftp transfer, be assured that files will be received
complete and intact and detect transfer errors.
