ModelJ looks like an interesting tool if you're using Struts, EJBs and JBoss.
ModelJ is a RAD (Rapid Application Development) tool that uses code generation to create complete J2EE designs using the Struts and EJB frameworks. With ModelJ, you are only a few steps away from a complete application readily deployable to JBoss, the leading open-source J2EE Application Server. ModelJ uses proven design patterns to ensure a robust, easy-to-maintain design.
I received a report from a reader of this site that Opera 7 on Windows XP scrunches and crunches words together. I opened it up on my machine, and sure 'nuff, they were right. I figured setting the font-size back to its default would fix the problem, by clicking on the "R" button on the top left - but none of the buttons seems to work on XP. I tried it on Windows 2000 and everything works fine. Hmmm, damn Opera. Oh well, I have a upcoming project to make a web app Opera 7-compliant, so I'm guessing I'll find all kinds of quirks in the near future. An easy fix for this problem would be to delete your cookies in Opera, but you actually have to download the Opera File Explorer to do this - what a pain!
Carlos's post about Java Service Wrapper might be just what I'm looking for. This site seems to have stabalized a bit thanks to Keith's Perl script that checks for OutOfMemory errors (I can see that Tomcat gets restarted a few times a day). I think it's Roller, but I'm running a November version of it, so that's probably the issue. I plan on upgrading this weekend and then we'll see what happens. In the meantime, I'm going to let Keith know about JSW, seems like a very useful tool. Thanks for the tip Carlos!
