Authored Open Source Projects
__________________________________________

OSJXWebFlow

OSJXWebFlow is an open source enterprise request controller. The goal was to
make the view portion of the MVC J2EE/JEE programming easier by introducing a
controller that allows for a uniform calling/implementation procedure.
OSJXWebFlow reduces the coding necessary for J2EE/JEE web applications, and
allowing a clear and concise pattern for implementing service oriented designs.



FlexDI

FlexDI is an open source project to allow for proper Dependency Injection
Pattern implementation.  Modeled after the Spring Framework DI/IoC
implementation, FlexDI allows for the Flex developer to easily enforce proper
contract based code development.  FlexDI reduces to the upfront instantiation
costs and eliminates the developer from implementing the "new" call in place of
direct injection when required and casted to the proper interface.
