The home page for the Saxon XSLT 3.0, XQuery 3.1, and XPath 3.1 processor has moved to http://www.saxonica.com/. Information on this site is no longer kept up to date. Sourceforge was the home for open-source versions of the Saxon XSLT 3.0, XQuery 3.1, and XPath 3.1, processor from 1999 until 2022. From version 12.0 in January 2023, you need to visit the Saxonica site at http://www.saxonica.com/ for the latest information and releases.

CLIPS is a forward-chaining rule-based programming language written in C that also provides procedural and object-oriented programming facilities.

JamVM is a new Java Virtual Machine conforming to the JVM specification edition 2 (blue book). It is extremely small - stripped on PowerPC ~110K, Intel 80K. However, unlike other small VMs it supports the full spec, inc. object finalisation and JNI.

Jython is a Java implementation of the Python language. It allows users to compile Python source code to Java byte codes, and run the resulting bytecodes on any Java Virtual Machine. It is the successor to JPython.

SableVM is a clean-room, highly portable and efficient Java virtual machine. Its goals are to be reasonably small, fast, and compliant with the various specifications (JVM specification, JNI, invocation interface, etc.).

The PHP script engine for Java. --- Run PHP applications within any J2EE server or servlet engine and/or connect script engines like PHP with Java or .NET back ends efficiently.

Lightweight, fast, Java-centric Lua interpreter written for JME and JSE, with string, table, package, math, io, os, debug, coroutine & luajava libraries, JSR-223 bindings, all metatags, weak tables and unique direct lua-to-java-bytecode compiling.

This project is now abandoned in favour of MorganaXProc-III which implements XProc 3.0: https://sourceforge.net/projects/morganaxproc-iiise/ MorganaXProc is a full implementation of XProc: An XML Pipeline Language (W3C Recommendation 11 May 2010) written in Java, supporting all required and optional steps, the steps proposed on EXProc.org and also the document templating steps "p:in-scope-names" and "p:template". XPath 2.0 or XPath 3.0 is used as expression language. XSLT and XQuery are supported out of the box, while a flexible connector mechanism also allows to employ your favorite XSLT and XQuery processors. The current version is 1.0.x. It is very close to the recommendation with all related tests of the XProc Test Suite passed.

Tcl/Java consists of two pieces of software. Jacl is an implementation of a Tcl interpreter written entirely in Java. Tcl Blend is a Tcl extension that provides access to Java from inside Tcl. One can prototype Java code using Tcl, and much more.

Un sistema de programación abierto, modular y flexible para fomentar las siguientes disciplinas: 1) programar para una interfaz, no para una implementación (GOF); 2) diseño por contrato; y 3) desarrollo dirigido por pruebas.

Jason is a fully-fledged interpreter for an extended version of AgentSpeak, a BDI agent-oriented logic programming language, and is implemented in Java. Using JADE a multi-agent system can be distributed over a network effortlessly. This project was moved to https://jason-lang.github.io

SISC is an extensible Java based interpreter of the algorithmic language Scheme. SISC uses modern interpretation techniques, and handily outperforms all existing Java interpreters (often by more than an order of magnitude).

JPype is an effort to allow python programs full access to java class libraries. This is achieved not through re-implementing Python, as Jython/JPython has done, but rather through interfacing at the native level in both Virtual Machines. Maintenance and evolution of the project has moved! please see http://www.jpype.org for the latest version

An implementation of the language described in "Karel the Robot: A Gentle Introduction to The Art of Programming" by Richard Pattis et al. Both Java and C/Unix versions are available.

We extend the Eclipse IDE with tools for development in Haskell, a functional programming language, providing support for a wide range of tools (compilers, interpreters, doc tools etc.) in a coherent, convenient and configurable environment.

SableCC is a parser generator which generates object-oriented frameworks for building compilers, interpreters and other text parsers. SableCC keeps a clean separation between machine and user code which leads to a shorter development cycle.

Community Z Tools Project (CZT): Tools for editing, typechecking and animating Z specifications and related notations. Includes a Java framework for building formal methods tools. NOTE: development of CZT has now moved to GitHub: https://github.com/community-z-users/czt

UJAC is a collection of Java components that may be useful for your project. It provides a powerful expression interpreter, a iText based document processing engine that generates PDF documents based on XML templates, a charting library and much more.

Lua interpreter for Android written in pure Java.

NOTE: Yacas and yagy development has moved to github. The new repositories are located at https://github.com/grzegorzmazur/yacas and https://github.com/grzegorzmazur/yagy . The mailing list has been moved over to https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/yacas . The downloads section at sourceforge will be kept up to date for the foreseable future. Yacas is an easy to use, general purpose computer algebra system. It uses its own programming language designed for symbolic as well as arbitrary-precision numerical computations. The system comes with a library of scripts and extensive documentation. Yagy (http://sourceforge.net/p/yagy) provides full yacas experience wrapped in a simple and intuitive graphical interface.

eXist-db is a native XML database featuring efficient, index-based XQuery processing, extensions for keyword search, XUpdate support, XSLT support, XForms support, REST and tight integration with existing XML development tools. Moved to Github - https://www.github.com/exist-db/exist

Biblioteca para Java que implementa un potente evaluador matemático en español y un lenguaje estructurado de script, JMEScript, que hace uso de éste. Puede evaluar expresiones altamente complejas, que incluyen; * vectores * matrices * números complejos * números enteros y reales de precisión arbitraria, * expresiones booleanas * conjuntos * cadenas * diccionarios * grafos * correspondencias y relaciones finitas Permite especificar operaciones y funciones definidas por el usuario además de incluir más de 60 operadores predefinidos y más de 450 funciones predefinidas. También implementa un potente modo REPL que permite usar interactivamente la mayoría de características del lenguaje implementado por la biblioteca JME, incluida la importación y exportación CSV, HTML, JSON y XML. Puede consultarse la documentación de usuario y de desarrollador en la página https://miguelalejandromorenobarrientos.github.io/JmeDoc/ IDE JMEScriptGUI https://sourceforge.net/projects/j
