Java Preference Alternative

Question

I use the Java settings API to store and retrieve small pieces of information in a swing / java application.

Now I have Java Web setup to run the application from my web page, and I get a security exception. To get rid of this exception, I would have to ask the user for permission. And I refuse to do this because my application does nothing, which will require user permission.

This is why I need an alternative solution to store several key values ​​from one execution to another. Some kind of cookie or something else. Do you know please?

You might want to learn about PersistenceService , a Java Web Start function that "provides methods for storing data locally on the client system, even for applications running in a limited execution environment." Related examples can be found here and here .
