The Discovery Component is about discovering, or finding, implementations for
pluggable interfaces. It provides facilities intantiating classes in general,
and for lifecycle management of singleton (factory) classes.
Fundamentally, Discovery locates classes that implement a given Java interface.
The discovery pattern, though not necessarily this package, is used in many
projects including JAXP (SaxParserFactory and others) and commons-logging
(LogFactory). By extracting this pattern, other projects can (re)use it and
take advantage of improvements to the pattern as Discovery evolves.
Discovery improves over previous implementations by establishing facilities for
working within managed environments. These allow configuration and property
overrides without appealing to the global System properties (which are scoped
across an entire JVM).

JC is a Java virtual machine implementation that converts class
files into C source files using the Soot Java bytecode analysis
framework, compiles them with GCC, and loads them using a built-in
ELF object file loader. JC utilizes the GNU Classpath class library
and provides support for most features you would expect such as
reflection, user class loaders, etc.

JFlex is a lexical analyzer generator for Java written in Java.
It is also a rewrite of the very useful tool JLex which was developed
by Elliot Berk at Princeton University. As Vern Paxon states for his C/C++
tool flex: They do not share any code though.

Java Media Framework API
The Java Media Framework API (JMF) enables audio, video and other
time-based media to be added to Java applications and applets. This
optional package, which can capture, playback, stream and transcode
multiple media formats, extends the multimedia capabilities on the
J2SE platform, and gives multimedia developers a powerful toolkit to
develop scalable, cross-platform technology.

The Jaxen project is a Java XPath Engine. jaxen is a universal object model
walker, capable of evaluating XPath expressions across multiple models.
Currently supported are dom4j and JDOM .
Jaxen provides a single point for XPath expression evaluation, regardless of
the target object model, whether its dom4j, JDOM, DOM, JavaBeans, or whatnot.

Apache Jakarta Commons Primitives provides a collection of types and utilities
optimized for working with Java primitives (boolean, byte, char, double, float,
int, long, short). Generally, the Commons-Primitives classes are faster,
smaller and easier to work with than their purely Object based alternatives.
Currently Commons Primitives is primarily composed of implementations of the
java.util collections adapted for the primitive types.

LogKit is a logging toolkit designed for secure performance oriented logging in
applications.
The LogKit provides the following features:
- Decouples LogEvent generation from LogEvent handling.
- Is simple to use and simple to configure.
- Designed with security in mind.
- Allow users fine control of logging based on priority and/or category.
- Has hierarchical logging namespace to enable inheritance of LogTargets and
Priorities.
- Lightweight.
- Designed to be integrated into existing products.
- Performance oriented.
- Enables users to plug in filters to filter out or modify LogEvents before
they are written out.
- Allow users to specify the serialization format of LogEvents via
Formatters.
- Comes with a number of existing LogTargets to ease integration.
- The LogKit has existed for a number years and been used in a number of
different environments which demonstrates it's reliability and stability.
