Paul R. Holser has released JOpt Simple 2.3, an open source
"Java library for parsing command line options, such as those you might pass to an invocation of javac.

This release now works with JOpt 1.3.

IBM's alphaWorks has released the Pattern Modeling and Analysis Tool for Java Garbage Collector (PMAT) 1.3. "PMAT analyzes IBM verbose GC traces by parsing the traces and building pattern models. PMAT recommends key configurations by executing a diagnosis engine and pattern modeling algorithm. If there are any errors related with Java heap exhaustion or fragmentation in the verbose GC trace, PMAT can diagnose the root cause of failures. PMAT provides rich chart features that graphically display Java heap usage." This is mostly a bug fix release.
