The maven-dependency-versions-check-plugin is a Maven plugin that verifies that the resolved versions of dependencies are at least the versions specified by the dependencies (or their dependencies etc.) if not higher. More specifically, it will check that * The resolved version of every dependency declared explicitly in the current POM is the same or a newer one than what was stated. If the resolved version has a higher major version number than the declared version, then the plugin will issue a warning if configured to do so. Note that enforced declared versions are ignored by the plugin. * For every explicitly declared dependency in the current POM, all its dependency versions are met. I.e. the resolved versions for all dependencies in that dependency's POM are the same or higher than the one stated in that dependency's POM. This is basically the same check as the one above, but using the dependency's POM! Also, if the current POM has exclusions specified for the dependency, then these transitive dependencies are ignored when checking this particular dependency.

Sample applications to demonstrate the usage of various TrueZIP module APIs. Some of these samples use rather advanced or exotic features which makes them more complex than necessary for a typical application. By design, the sample applications use all file system drivers which can be located at runtime. Location of the available file system drivers is performed by scanning the class path - see the Javaodoc for the TrueZIP Kernel class de.schlichtherle.truezip.fs.sl.FsDriverLocator for more information.

MASON is a fast discrete-event multiagent simulation library core in Java, designed to be the foundation for large custom-purpose Java simulations, and also to provide more than enough functionality for many lightweight simulation needs. MASON contains both a model library and an optional suite of visualization tools in 2D and 3D.

The enhanced OAI server is a Java Servlet web application that implements the Open Archives Initiative Protocol for Metadata Harvesting (OAI-PMH) v2.0. It is based on OAICat (http://oclc.org/research/activities/oaicat.html) and the Biblio Transformation Engine (https://github.com/EKT/Biblio-Transformation-Engine). More than the flexibility it allows with BTE (custom filter and modifiers), it allows the administrator to define metadata mappings using XSLTs and that way to support easily more metadata formats.

A backport for java.util.function to be used in java versions older than 1.8. As there are no default methods before 1.8 the backport is very limited. It only allows to create libraries with modern APIs to allow 1.8 code to use nice and natural lambdas without locking out users with older java versions. ATTENTION: This only works with -Xbootclasspath. Also it is inofficial and invalid according to JCP/JSR. However, we need a working update-path to 1.8.

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.

Gant is a tool for scripting Ant tasks using Groovy instead of XML to specify the logic. A Gant specification is just a Groovy script and so can bring all the power of Groovy to bear directly, something not possible with Ant scripts. Whilst it might be seen as a competitor to Ant, Gant relies on all the Ant tasks for actually doing things, so it is really an alternative way of doing things using Ant, but using a programming language rather than XML to specify the rules.

Drift can be used to serialize and deserialze objects in a cross language manner. It will generate code based on a grammar and provide hooks for data migrations across different grammar versions. In many ways very similar to Thrift (original code base) and protobuffers. It's focus is serialization and data migration rather than RPC and service implementation though.

Gant is a build tool for scripting Ant tasks using Groovy instead of XML to specify the build logic. A Gant build specification is just a Groovy script and so can bring all the power of Groovy to bear directly, something not possible with Ant scripts. Whilst it might be seen as a competitor to Ant, Gant relies on all the Ant tasks for actually doing things, so it is really an alternative way of doing builds using Ant, but using a programming language rather than XML to specify the build rules.
