If•Then Technology: Java Tool Kit

Overview

The Java Tool Kit is an extract of powerful components from the WAFr (Web Application Framework) utilities package. These classes seamlessly integrate into any Java application, Servlet or JSP page to provide valuable functionality.

Requirements

• Java 1.4 or later

• JavaMail API 1.3 or later

• JavaBeans Activation Framework 1.0.2 or later

Components

PdfFile	The PdfFile component provides streaming HTML-to-PDF file conversion. This powerful API can transform any input stream representing a well-formed HTML document into a PDF file or output stream. The class even renders stylesheets, images, and form elements into a full text-searchable document.
Upload	The Upload component enables the retrieval of posted "multipart/form-data" encoded files via a Web browser. The class can handle multiple file objects within the same form and also provides methods to read other posted form elements. The nested PostedFile object, representing each uploaded file, can then be passed to other components for PDF conversion, zipping or to be attached to an email.
Email	The Email component wraps the JavaMail API utilizing the JavaBean Activation Framework to provide a robust interface for dynamic email generation. This class enables effortless HTML and plain text email messages via secure or anonymous channels. Files, input streams, byte arrays and even PostedFile objects, from the sibling Upload class, can be embedded inline or attached with a simple call.
ZipFile	The ZipFile component generates streaming ZIP files from multiple formats including files, byte arrays, and input streams. The class accommodates any number if input files, enables multiple levels of compression, and provides full access to statistics such as processed data, times, and rates.
