JCTools
Java Concurrency Tools for the JVM
...JCTools is maven built and requires an existing Maven installation and JDK8 (only for building, runtime is 1.6 compliant). With ‘MAVEN_HOME/bin’ on the path and JDK8 set to your ‘JAVA_HOME’ you should be able to run “mvn install” from this directory. While you are free to copy & extend JCTools, we would much prefer it if you have a versioned dependency on JCTools to enable better support, upgrade paths and discussion.
