Hi Andrew,

If no direct api is possible (i think it isn't), you can at least
access web.xml, cron.xml, etc. via following code (presented as a
junit test) and then read its content to parse it and find the jobs in
your case.

@Test
        public void testReadWebXml() {
                String filename = "/WEB-INF/web.xml";
                if (Util.runningInEclipse()) {
                        filename = "war" + filename;
                }
                File file = new File(filename);
                assertTrue(file.exists());
        }

I don't think you can rewrite it though. Why not store flags in the
datastore to tell a job if it should run or not if you cant rewrite
the file?

regards

didier
