ADDC Commons Java Libraries

The ADDC Commons libraries are a collection of Java class libraries that have been used in numerous large scale projects for telecoms companies, banks, railways and gaming and betting software over the last 20 odd years. They contain classes that started back when Java Generics were a dream and you found your type errors at run-time with class casting errors.

The oldest classes in the collection date from 2 decades ago when developing the first Java server deployment onto an IBM ainframe. As a result many classes disappeared over the years as classes offering the same functionality finally appeared in the Java run-time making them obsolete and many of the others have been re-written to use Generics making them more usable and, above all, type safe.
