JarCasting 
Diagrams and visual languages are a great thing, but getting the layout just right for them to be easily understandable can be tedious and time-consuming. The Eclipse Layout Kernel provides a number of layout algorithms as well as an Eclipse-based infrastructure to connect them to editors and viewers. The layout algorithms are plain Java and can thus also be used outside of Eclipse.
