Jetty is a 100% Java HTTP Server and Servlet Container. This means that
you do not need to configure and run a separate web server (like
apache) in order to use java, servlets and JSPs to generate dynamic
content. Jetty is a fully featured web server for static and dynamic
content. Unlike separate server/container solutions, this means that
your web server and web application run in the same process, without
interconnection overheads and complications. Furthermore, as a pure
java component, Jetty can be simply included in your application for
demonstration, distribution or deployment. Jetty is available on all
Java supported platforms. Homepage: http://jetty.mortbay.org/jetty/

reflection is used and SQL generation occurs at system startup time.

Interbase. Homepage: http://sourceforge.net/projects/hibernate/

The JADE Open Framework v1.2 released (Tuesday October 29, @07:00AM)
http://java.foundries.sourceforge.net/article.pl?sid=02/10/29/1210212
The JADE Open Framework is a rapid application development (RAD) tool
for the J2EE (Java 2 Enterprise Edition). Its purpose is to allow Java
developers to create high quality, consistent and maintainable database
driven web applications and web sites quickly and easily. Here is a
description of what JADE isn't: The JADE Open Framework isn't a single
monolithic development tool. It integrates best of breed tools from
several different vendors and different tools can be swapped in and out
as you like. All parts of a JADE application can be created with a
simple text editor all the way up to a visual development environment.
The tool is database engine agnostic and supports everything from MySQL
to mainframe DB2. The tool is J2EE server agnostic and supports Tomcat,
Weblogic, Websphere, and many others. The goal of JADE is to make
development faster and easier, not to lock you in. Homepage:
