Hi
The application is swing application. One of the features in the application is to store the user preferences of the application(say save userid/pwd) locally at say c:\DOcument and Settings\<username>\appName. So that application will pickup the user credentials from locally stored data. User need not enter every time he opens the application.
Now we would like to give this application as Applet as well. So we have created new Applet and used this swing application in it. It works perfectly without issues. (its signed applet)
Now regarding the above said feature, we are analyzing if storing the user data locally is a good practice running the application from applet. However we know how to access local file system. But we are looking for Best Practices of Applet in storing the content in local file system and accessing the same in next usage of applet.
Hope I am clear on my question.
