I'm writing a servlet-based application, and one of my requirements is being able to read a standard INI file that has been uploaded to the server. I can't call the Microsoft DLLs to accomplish this, since we'll be deploying on other platforms as well as Windows. Has anybody written or know of any Java classes I might be able to use to read these INI files? Updating is not required. TIA...

Thank you, Gerry.

I'm going to be joining a company that is using the iPlanet app server. Up until now, my only app server development experience has been with WebSphere and SilverStream.
Where could I look for reading materials to get me jump-started on iPlanet development? Any good book, magazines, web sites? TIA

Bump. Anybody?

I know J2EE, but am new to Swing. Are there any best practices for architecting a J2EE application with a Swing front end? Our general goal is to partition the application so the Swing front end relies on the WebSphere application server for as much processing as possible. What I'd like is some direction on how the Swing app should be communicating with the server classes/EJBs. Should we be using RMI, HTTP? Should we use XML as the method for moving data back and forth? If you have any insights or know of something online that might be useful, I would sure appreciate it. Thanks.
