I'm trying to use PersistenceService from an application launched from
JAWS in Windows XP using Java 1.4.2 to store some user preferences. I
get an error trying to open an output stream like this:
final BasicService basic = (BasicService)
ServiceManager.lookup("javax.jnlp.BasicService");
URL cookie = new URL(basic.getCodeBase(), "cookie.txt");
final PersistenceService service = (PersistenceService)
ServiceManager.lookup("javax.jnlp.PersistenceService");
final PrintStream out = new PrintStream(new
BufferedOutputStream(service.get(cookie).getOutputStream(true)));
The path returned by service.get(cookie).getName() shows a path I did
not expect. Instead of the JAWS cache with the url expanded as
directories, which is where JAWS stores the jar file, the path had the
directory name \muffins\ inserted between the cache directory path and
the url portion of the path. Even when I created this path by hand, I
still got a file not found exception from the above code.
The application is signed, so I'll use the option of creating the path
and output stream using File objects, but I am curious: what is wrong
with this method of opening an output stream for a JAWS application
cookie?
