The Spring Framework provides an excellent infrastructure for wiring together applications (it provides a lot more than just that, but the wiring is what I'm interested in here). Wiring an application together with Spring involves maintaining XML files. Unfortunately, the XML can grow to be rather large, making a visualization tool desirable. SpringViz (previously known as SpringGraph, but renamed due to a conflict with a pre-existing Perl utility) provides that tool, although I hesitate to call it a "tool", since it's just an XSLT.
