The Jakarta Commons Chain framework is a fairly new framework that implements the Chain of Responsibility pattern. In this article, the basics of the framework are discussed, starting with the interfaces Command, Chain, and Catalog. In addition, the reader is introduced to some packages designed for use in Web applications and learns how Commons Chain will be applied in an upcoming version of Struts. Finally, some imperfections are mentioned that are still present at the time of this writing.

As enterprise Java developers, we are routinely required to implement functionality like parsing XML, working with HTTP, validating input, and processing dates. The Jakarta Commons project is an attempt to create components that can take care of all such commonly used tasks, freeing up your time to focus only on core business solutions. In this article we will provide a quick introduction to the Jakarta Commons project and then demonstrate how the Lang component within Jakarta Commons can be used to handle and simplify everyday Java tasks such as string manipulation, working with dates and calendars, comparing data objects, and sorting objects. For all examples, we will use the latest version of Lang, version 2.1.

Resource pooling is not new and is being widely used to conserve and optimize the usage of resources like threads, sockets, and database connections. Web server implementations routinely use thread pool implementations for performance and scalability reasons. Commons Pool, from the Apache Software Foundation, may not be the first when it comes to implementation, but it deserves its own place for defining a framework that allows any arbitrary object to be pooled. This article discusses Commons Pool and shows how to use it to implement a thread pool.

- Jakarta Commons Online Bookshelf by Vikram Goyal - [Clicks: 85]
Written for developers and architects with real work to do, the Jakarta Commons Online Bookshelf is a collection of 14 PDF modules, each focused on one of the main Commons components. Commons is a collection of over twenty open-source Java tools broadly ranging from logging, validation, bean utilities and XML parsing. The Jakarta Commons Online Bookshelf summarizes the rationale behind each component and then provides expert explanations and hands-on examples of their use. You will learn to easily incorporate the Jakarta Commons components into your existing Java applications. Why spend countless hours writing thousands of lines of code, when you can use the Jakarta Commons re-usable components instead? Each of the packages is independent of the others, and Manning lets you pick which of the Commons components you want to learn about. Each Module can be purchased separately or purchased together in the entire Jakarta Commons Online Bookshelf. Why is Jakarta Commons so popular? Because it provides re-usable solutions to your everyday development tasks. Make your work life better starting today.

http://www.manning.com/goyal - Mar, 2005 - Apache Jakarta Commons: Reusable Java Components
by Will Iverson - [Clicks: 64]
Using the Apache Jakarta Commons reusable Java components, you can leverage the work of the global open source community to solve common programming problems reliably, quickly, and inexpensively. But to use the Commons libraries effectively, you need far more guidance than the official documentation offers. In Apache Jakarta Commons: Reusable Java Components, Will Iverson covers everything Java developers need to take full advantage of Jakarta Commons -- starting right now. Iverson begins with a definitive overview of the Commons project: its goals, what it's delivered, and how to get started with Commons components. Next, he presents example-rich chapters on Commons' twelve most useful packages, covering topics ranging from HTTP file upload to database connectivity. Iverson provides detailed code samples for every component he describes. Once you've mastered the core Jakarta Commons packages, you'll constantly rely on this book's handy 75-page quick-reference.
