Sounds like a legitimate workaround to me, esp. since this has been reported as a bug to Javasoft by others earlier. It's a shame they can not fix the underlying problem, but unfortunately that's a common gripe about Sun's JVM development. The only suggestion I have is to encapsulate this workaround in one place, perhaps to a utility class file (util/FileUtil.java?), and only called from the other place(s) (right now that would be just one place?). This way workaround code wouldn't add code clutter to actual functionality, and could be properly commented in utility class itself. -+ Tatu +- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
