Goodies - This page features some of the other smaller pieces of code I put together, available under the GPL/MIT License.

• Towards Bug-Free Code - My article published on O'Reilly OnJava.com - Towards Bug-Free Code, which talks about using Java 5.0 features to write easily testable code. It covers, Unit testing with Mock Objects, a mini-framework for I18N support, a Type-safe Registry/Factory etc.

• Mozilla bookmark converter - A simple Java class to convert your Mozilla/Netscape exported "bookmarks.htm" page into a more readable HTML page with a Windows Explorer/Konqeror like tree structure, complete with the folder images. See my Bookmark pages for samples. It works by implementing a SAX DefaultHandler and spits out the transformed HTML code. This Zip file contains the source and compiled code along with SAX2 parser from SAX Project and a SAX2 driver from The GNU JAXP Project and a sample input file with the sample output file it produced. The generated files need some manual tweaking, especially ones from the second converter.
  Download Mozilla bookmark converter (443 KB): MozillaBookmarkConverter.zip. Note that there are 3 versions of this file - MozillaBookmarkConverter.java generates a non-JavaScript plain vanilla version of the bookmarks. MozillaBookmarkConverter_2.java generates a JavaScript version of the bookmarks. This version relies on the tutorial code provided in Webreference.com. The input file for the DOM generator file must not have a root because the tool adds one. The input file for the Plain HTML generator, on the other hand needs to have a root. So, the best way to use the tool, if you are generating both the Plain and the DOM files, is to finish the Plain file with the root element and then comment it out for the DOM generation. There are sample input "in_*" and output "out_*" files in the download. MozillaBookmarkConverter_3.java generates a very simple and lightweight collapsible tree using just a few lines of JavaScript. This scales much better than MozillaBookmarkConverter_2 because it uses HTML's BlockQuote and text instead of images for the display. It loads much much faster than any other implementation. The generator file was written using Java+ to inline the entire HTML and JavaScript and then compiled using javac.
  
• Jext Bookmark Plugin - A plugin for the fantastic open source Text editor - Jext. The plugin lets you bookmark multiple lines in all the open files. Ctrl+F9 toggles the bookmark. F9 will iterate through all the bookmarks.

• JUnit test case generator - My first step towards learning XP - more specifically, Test driven development (TDD). This Ant job only generates a barebones TestCase and TestSuite. The necessary parameters such as TestCase/Suite name are specified in a 'build.properties' file; and the Ant process executed to generate the files. Am quite sure the "big" IDEs let us create TestCases without having to leave the editor. I wrote this only to force myself into using TDD. I'll use it just because it's mine. Smart huh?
