Kookie Jar 6.3
Signature randomizer and generator for email and news clients.whisky in the jar more>> Kookie Jar is a program for Windows 95, 98, ME, 2000 and XP which generates signatures you may use with your favorite email or news program. A signature is a small piece of text, automatically attached to every email message or newsgroup posting. It typically includes a random quote ??? a so-called tagline (a sample tagline file is included with the program).
For some strange reason, programmers have always been writing programs to automate creating email signatures. I have no idea why, but its something of a tradition. Usually, signature managers simply go through a list of taglines, select one at random, and append it to outgoing messages, so that your signature is always different and never boring. KookieJar does that too, but it can do a lot more.
Typically, KookieJar starts automatically with Windows, lives in the tray (an icon is placed next to the system clock in the lower right-hand corner of the screen), chooses a new random tagline at a predefined interval, e.g. every 5 minutes, and stores it in your .sig file. Apart from this, KookieJar can place many other pieces of information in your signature. To define the layout of your signature and tell the program what to include in it, you create a special template (sample included).
KookieJar can manage not just one signature, but as many as you need. For example, you may wish to use one signature for office email, and another for personal messages. If you speak more than one language, you can have separate signatures for each. if you use more than one email account, you can choose to have a different signature for each account. On top of that, signatures can be generated in three formats: plain text, RTF, or HTML (if your email program supports those formats, and if your recipients do not mind non-text email). Please see the feature list for details - KookieJar is very flexible in what it can do to your signatures!<<less

Bottomline 1.2
Loads database drivers directly from JAR archives. more>> Bottomline is a JDBC Bridge API that loads database drivers directly from JAR archives with (JCL) Jar Class Loader. Bottomline uses a jdbc:bottomline bridge to load multiple drivers from their respective JAR files. Unlike JDBC, Bottomline uses custom class loaders to load drivers completely bypassing JVMs bootstrap class loader. This gives an advantage to load multiple versions of the same database driver from different JAR files.
Overview
Bottomline is a JDBC Bridge API that loads database drivers directly from JAR archives. Bottomline uses a jdbc:bottomline bridge to load multiple drivers from their respective JAR files. Unlike JDBC, Bottomline uses custom class loaders to load drivers completely bypassing JVMs bootstrap class loader.
Bottomline helps to load multiple database drivers using separate class loaders.
Multiple versions of the same database driver can be loaded from different JAR files.
Developers can build applications using conventional JDBC and transparently use Bottomline underneath.
Bottomline seamlessly integrates with applications servers like JBoss and can be bound in JNDI which allows connections to be pooled using the application servers Connection Pooler.
Bottomline also works well with persistence frameworks like iBATIS.<<less

Jaree 1.1d6
A free utility to inspect Java JAR files. more>> Jaree is a little application that wraps a user interface around the jar and javap tools to let you see the contents of Java JAR files. It shows you the hierarchical contents of the packages, and double-clicking on a class shows you its members and methods. These can be copied to the clipboard, and one nicety is that you can also copy their internal type signatures which is useful when writing JNI code.<<less
JarLook 1.2
Check a Java jar to make sure all the javac -target versions of the class files are what you expect. more>>
Check a Java jar to make sure all the javac -target versions of
the class files are what you expect.
Java application.
Requires Java version 1.5 or later.
All Java source code is included.
to use:
java -jar jarlook.jar jartotocheck.jar 1.1 1.4
where jartocheck.jar is the name of jar to check.
It will check all the class files in it.
In this example:
1.1 is the lowest acceptable target version number.
1.4 is the highest acceptable target version number.
Currently, only version numbers 1.0, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 1.5
and 1.6 are supported. The program does not currently test
minor version numbers.
Why would you use this utility? To make sure that a jar
intended to run under an old 1.1 JVM contains no classes
accidentally compiled with javac -target 1.5. Passing this
test does not guarantee the jar will work on an old JVM. The
jar still might use methods not bundled with old JVMs. This
should catch however, classes normally compiled with target
1.1 that were accidentally compiled with 1.5 as a side
effect of compiling some 1.5 class.

<<lessJarfix 1.0.0
A solution to restore the .jar file association to the Java Runtime Environment more>>
The problem ...
The root cause for the problem above is, that a program has stolen the .jar association. If you have installed the Java Runtime Environment the first time, the file type called "jar" is assigned to javaw.exe correctly. "jar" is an abbreviation for "java archive" and javaw.exe is the correct program to execute a .jar.
However, on Windows any other program can steal a file type at any time even it is already associated with a program. Many archive managers prefer to do this, because a jar is stored in the .zip format.
If you doubleclick on a .jar, your pack program opens the file, rather than javaw runs the program, because your pack program ignores the meta information which is also stored in a .jar.
In the Sun bug database there is report 4912211 "add mechanism to restore hijacked .jar and .jnlp file extensions", but it has been closed as "Closed, will not be fixed".
The workaround ...
Reinstall the Java Runtime Environment or fix the Windows Registry manually each time this problem occurs.
The solution ...
You can fix this problem very easy with the jarfix.exe program. Just doubleclick on it to restore the .jar association with javaw.exe. It also sets a nice Java icon for your .jar files
System requirements:
- Java Runtime Environment
