Class Summary
Base64: This class provides encode/decode for RFC 2045 Base64 as defined by RFC 2045, N.
CGIProcessEnvironment: Encapsulates the CGI Process' environment and rules to derive that environment from the servlet container and request information.

CustomObjectInputStream: Custom subclass of `ObjectInputStream` that loads from the class loader for this web application.
DateTool: Common place for date utils.
DOMWriter: A sample DOM writer.
Enumerator: Adapter class that wraps an `Enumeration` around a Java2 collection classes object `Iterator` so that existing APIs returning Enumerations can easily run on top of the new collections.
FastDateFormat: Fast date formatter that caches recently formatted date information and uses it to avoid too-frequent calls to the underlying formatter.
FastHttpDateFormat: Utility class to generate HTTP dates.
HexUtils: Library of utility methods useful in dealing with converting byte arrays to and from strings of hexadecimal digits.
InstanceSupport: Support class to assist in firing InstanceEvent notifications to registered InstanceListeners.
IOTools: Contains commonly needed I/O-related methods

MIME2Java: MIME2Java is a convenience class which handles conversions between MIME charset names and Java encoding names.

ResourceSet: Extended implementation of HashSet that includes a `locked` property.
ServerInfo: Simple utility module to make it easy to plug in the server identifier when integrating Tomcat.
Strftime: Converts dates to strings using the same format specifiers as strftime Note: This does not mimic strftime perfectly.
StringManager: An internationalization / localization helper class which reduces the bother of handling ResourceBundles and takes care of the common cases of message formating which otherwise require the creation of Object arrays and such.
StringParser: Utility class for string parsing that is higher performance than StringParser for simple delimited text cases.
URL: URL is designed to provide public APIs for parsing and synthesizing Uniform Resource Locators as similar as possible to the APIs of `java.net.URL`, but without the ability to open a stream or connection.
URLEncoder: This class is very similar to the java.net.URLEncoder class.
