Ben,
Why do you want to store this settings in a XML file? I think the best
approach is storing them in a database, and forget about XML... If you want
to have a centralized point of access to this settings I think I would make
an stateless session bean that handles all the stuff, and abstracts you from
the real implementation (XML, database, LDAP). Anyway, if this settings are
to be changed, I wouldn't use the XML file approach.
Hope this helps
Jose

Right, that's what I thought of. But since I don't want to write a tool like
XML-Spy, which is able to abstract the XML-source from the editing person
and gives a clearer picture of the document, I just want to present the
source of the XML which should be manipulated. Thus I would have to retrieve
and return plain text and _not_ manipulate the internal JDOM representation
of the document.
So in the end the bean would have to have methods for directly storing and
loading documents thus somehow serving as a proxy for the client to the
files - and I'm not sure whether I should implement the system this way ...
Any comments ? :)
