Re: [Javacavemaps-developers] applet and webstart data

[Larry G. <jav...@ya...>]

Well, I was refereing to some simple tabular data for a set of survey lines. We are using swing, I suppose a JTable would work fine for this idea.  Also I guess we can add a menu bar to an applet as well right? Though it seems strange to me to give an applet a menu bar. I was also refering to working around the sand box  limitations by allowing them to cut and paste this data.

Not sure exactly what data you are referring to but a quick way to persist data I use is just the native Java serialization. You can write a bean directly to file without having to make a custom XML parser. It is also easily zippable and has a small file size. Catch is you can't manipulate this data manually, also some changes to the bean's class can make legacy persisted beans unreadable.

One thing I had thought of doing was providing a way for the user to save the data somehow on his local hard drive via cut and paste. I.e. we provide an edit box with the xml or delimited data in it for them to do a ctrl-A then copy  paste to notepad.  And then they can later copy paste it back into the applet or webstart app.  Seems lame but its a way to get around the sand box or use of policy files. Anyone have any other good suggestions?
