File Opening limit

[Edy Yu]

I am running a Java program on USS (it's a unix enviroment on the mainframe). I want to know how many files/file descriptors my application has opened in order to make sure it won't pass the system limit. Is there any classes or methods in Java to tell me that?
Thanks.

Not that I am aware of. It all depends on how much memory you have available.

I think a co-worker ran into this limit, I will post back here on Monday if I get anything.

My co-worker ran into a limit of 2000 open files. You can see the limit in unix with the "ulimit -a" command. The "nofiles" is the number of files which can be open. Your admin may be able to increase this number.
Sorry - I just read your original post again and I am not answering your question.
