The best way is to write your own Attachment, that way you get all the
benefits of OpenSG classes (thread-safety, File I/O, Cluster
compatibility etc.), but it is a bit of work, especially for the first time.
If you don't care about these things you can use setVoidP() and
getVoidP(), which work like the Name counterparts.
Hope it helps
