Hi,
You're right. It is possible to specify another directory at the
command line of your JVM. For example with Jrockit:
This section explains how to install and uninstall a standalone version of BEA
JRockit 1.4.2 SDK for Windows 2000 and Windows Server 2003 EE and on the Red
Hat Linux 32-bit and 64-bit platforms from a GUI.
Note: When installing on Linux, the default location for system prefs will be:
JAVAHOME/.systemPrefs, where JAVAHOME=<SDK_INSTALLDIR>/jre or <JRE_INSTALLDIR>
Alternatively, a root user may use the installer option
-Djava.util.prefs.SystemRoot.location=system, changing the location for system
prefs to:
/etc/.java/.systemPrefs
-Djava.util.prefs.SystemRoot.location=javahome is the default if not specified.
Source:
http://e-docs.bea.com/wljrockit/docs142/install/install.html#1051410
By reading the various articles sent, I still wonder if it is possible to
specify a another directory for the preferences I.e. in the WebClipping WebApps
?
The objective is not to modify the code, but to see whether this WebApps
support a parameter to specify that (by adding a parameter to the
WebClipping.properties for example).
Thanks.

Hi,
The webclipping use the preferences system available with Java since
1.4, this system is configurable by passing some variable to the JVM.
Here more information about this system :
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/util/prefs/Preferences.html
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/guide/lang/preferences.html
http://www.onjava.com/pub/a/onjava/synd/2001/10/17/j2se.html?page=2
On Unix the preferences are saved in filesystem and on windows they are
saved on registry.
I do not know if the FileSystemPreferencesFactory class is configurable.
But if you have multiple webclipping each one have is own node of
preference so they won't conflict.
Cheers,
Cedric Mailleux
