[039] - Kodo JDO 3.2.4 (Production)
by Chox (http://freshmeat.net/users/neelan/)
Fri, Feb 4th 2005 21:59
Database :: API
About: Kodo JDO allows you to write database calls using Java statements
instead of SQL statements, by supporting the Java Data Objects standard
for transparent persistence. It is the most complete implementation of the
JDO specification for relational data stores, and comes with tools for
producing a schema from an object model, producing class files from an
existing schema, and a performance pack (distributed caching and statement
batching) that improves performance by 15 - 30 times. It supports most
relational databases, application servers, and IDEs, and reduces the total
coding effort by 20-40%.
Changes: A couple bugs related to query caching were fixed. More support
for generics was added. A MaximizeBatchSize configuration option was added
to the default kodo.jdbc.UpdateManager property. It defaults to true,
indicating that Kodo should sort statements in order to optimize batch
size when statement batching is on.

About: Kodo JDO allows you to write database calls using Java statements
instead of SQL statements, by supporting the Java Data Objects standard
for transparent persistence. It is the most complete implementation of the
JDO specification for relational data stores, and comes with tools for

relational databases, application servers, and IDEs, and reduces the total
coding effort by 20-40%.
Changes: This beta introduced a number of JDO 2 features including preview
support for single field identity. This allows for the use of application
identity without writing object ID classes when using a single primary key
field. A lifecycle event listening framework was added as a JDO 2 preview
feature. A convenience method was added for retrieving instances based on
OID, primary key value, and stringified OIDs. Apache Derby/Cloudscape
support was added. Caches can now be evicted on a schedule. JMX 1.2 is now
supported.

PIB designers, and Internet-draft authors. It provides a GUI-based
environment for designing, editing, and compiling MIB and PIB modules
according to the SMIv1, SMIv2, and COPS-PR-SPPI standards. It accelerates

for developing the specifications without the syntax and formatting
concerns of editing the modules by hand. It includes a number of built-in
basic SNMP management tools, XML support, and (with MIB Smithy
Professional) support for custom compiler output formats.
Changes: The GUI has been greatly improved with selectable themes, a much
more platform-specific look and feel (particularly under MacOS X Aqua),

[086] - ZoneMinder 1.20.1

Fri, Feb 4th 2005 15:24
Multimedia :: Video
Multimedia :: Video :: Capture
Multimedia :: Video :: Display
About: ZoneMinder is a suite of applications intended for use in video
camera security applications, including theft prevention and child or
family member monitoring. It supports capture, analysis, recording, and
monitoring of video data coming from one or more video or network cameras
attached to a Linux system. It also features a user-friendly Web interface
which allows viewing, archival, review, and deletion of images and movies
captured by the cameras. The image analysis system is highly configurable,
permitting retention of specific events, while eliminating false positives.
ZoneMinder supports both directly connected and network cameras and is
built around the definition of a set of individual 'zones' of varying
sensitivity and functionality for each camera. This allows the elimination
of regions which should be ignored or the definition of areas which will
alarm if various thresholds are exceeded in conjunction with other zones.
All management, control, and other functions are supported through the Web
interface.
Changes: This release focuses on correcting problems found with some of
the major features introduced in 1.20.0. If you are running 1.20.0, you
are strongly encouraged to upgrade. A couple of minor features are also
included.
