This is a set of utilities and classes that I have found useful over the years. In my career spanning over a decade, I have time and again written the same code or some part of the code over and over again. I never found the time to collate the details in a reusable library. This project will be a collection of such files. The work that I have been doing is more than 5 years old, however the project has been conceived in 2011.

The newest version!
