<h3>07 March 2002 - Enterprise Object Broker: EJB for mere mortals</h3>
<p>
Enterprise Object Broker (EOB) is an application server that tries to a
be a simpler EJB container. It is not complete yet, but we have many
demos showing local, remote, and webapp usage.
</p>
<p>
Take a look at
<a href="http://eob.sourceforge.net/">
http://eob.sourceforge.net/</a>
</p>
<p>
We are looking to add more demos, especially Jakarta ones. The best
candidates are WAR file apps with object models (hopefully
interface/impl separated) that can be moved out of the Servlet's
context. These also include EJB using webapps, but the EJB side would
have to be trimmed of the EJB 'noise' before being run in EOB.
</p>
<p>
As well as our need for more demos, we are interested in people to join
in the main development. Apache license of course.

<h3>5 March 2002 - Poolman developer retires</h3>
<p>
The developer of the popular Poolman connection pool has retired from
active work on the product. The current beta release was to include
pooling of PreparedStatments. While Poolman has a tremendous user
base, it has never attracted a developer community.
</p>
<p>
The current beta and prior stable releases are still available from
<a href="http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=4899">
SourceForge</a>. If you are a Poolman user, you may wish to tuck away
a copy of the distribution archives for safekeeping.
</p>
<p>
From the CodeStudio site<br/>
PoolMan is no longer available or supported through this site. It did exceedingly well during its
lifetime, and I appreciate the important role it played in so many distributed applications over the
past three years. If you are looking for connection and object pooling mechanisms, they can now
be found in application servers such as JRun, Tomcat and the Jakarta Project, and other J2EE
products and servers.
</p>
<p>
Poolman in the Commons?<br/>

<h3>1 March 2002 - Simper 0.2: JDBC Persistence</h3>
<p>
Simper is a simple JDBC persistence mechanism for Java web apps. It features many
of the interesting features of EJB, such as automatic transaction demarcation (by way of
Servlet Filters), and automatic change detection of database rows (by way of
DynaBeans). Lastly, the notation by which you reference rows, as well as relations
between tables, is extremely JSP friendly.

<h3>8 February 2002 - JasperReports: Writing Complex Reports and PDF</h3>
<p>
Java based, XML enabled reporting tool that organizes data retrieved through
JDBC into a ready to print document, according to the template defined in a
XML file. The output can be delivered to the screen, printer, or stored in XML or
PDF file.
</p>
<p>
<a href="http://jasperreports.sourceforge.net/">http://jasperreports.sourceforge.net/</a>
</p>
<p>
JavaReports relies on a number of Jakarta technologies,including the
Commons-Digester. Status is alpha/pre-release.

<h3>15 January 2002 - dbForms releases version 1.0</h3>
<p>
DbForms enables developers to build sophisticated web-based database driven
applications in very short time and with very little effort. DbForms - applications are
built in a conceptually very similar manner to RAD - database building tools like Sybase
PowerSite (for web-based applications) or even Microsoft Access (for Windows-based
applications)
</p>
<p>
The philosophy behind DbForms could be described shortly as follows
</p>
<blockquote>
user places database components and action elements on templates, which get
executed at runtime
user is not required program anything (he/she just designs the app)
</blockquote>
<p>
<a href="http://dbforms.org/">http://dbforms.org/</a>
</p>
<p>
DbForms utilizes technology from the Jakarta-Commons and works well with
Jakarta Struts, and other Java Web application frameworks.
