Hi list, I have a couple of questions regarding accessing (reading/writing) files. 1) can EJBs access files? What is the best way to do this? 2) can EJBs use Container-Managed Persistence for accessing files? 3) can those DAOs (Data Access Objects), which EJBs use for accessing the database, also be used for accessing files, since they're not EJBs? I need to store some data off the Database, because the data is basically paragraphs of text. I decided to store this data in files (in XML format), but I haven't come across any example code which does anything like this. I read somewhere that EJBs cannot access files directly. But then in some other places, I got the impression that you *can* do this. Has anyone done anything like this before? Could you tell me how I could go about doing this? Thanks in advance! -Erwin =========================================================================== To unsubscribe: mailto [EMAIL PROTECTED] with body: "signoff JSP-INTEREST".
