dear all,
i have a requirement like this, i had successfully generated a scheduler which generates the pdf reports periodically and put it into a file server. Now these files are the one to be served to the client through the
servlets. the user searches for a report, if found in the db displays the info about the report in a table grid. user selects the reports and clicks print. now i need to find this report in the file system, if found read it and write to the client. How do i search in the file server for a file from the servlet, and also effectively?
How do i do it? which design
pattern may i use to implement this search? suggested oo way? may i use cache?
Thanks
Vijay
