A Java Application Launcher: The Limn3 Application Loader
In order to develop the fourth version of ViPER-GT, we created a system that loads java beans into a single application framework using a complicated RDF description of the application. It isn't terrifically high-level, it is brittle, and the whole project might yet be scrapped, but I think the idea is pretty interesting. As more tools are developed to support n3, and APIs to access RDF become more mature, I expect the AppLoader to become more useful and less opaque.
If you wish to access the source code, download the "Full" package from the
latest
release of ViPER. The code is in the apploader
subdirectory.
I recommend eclipse; the project is already set up. If anyone wishes for me
to create a seperate package, send an
RFE to
sourceforge or drop a message to our
google group.
