Re: persistent JDBC connections with a daemon

Hi,

Comunicating with the outside world(UNIX) is what you would be missing, that
is what Posix is about. But I was finding it a little daunting. I have to
be able to send to or pipe to it from shell applications, but once you run a
normal app like you suggest, it gets its args[] and then how do you change
them for the next query?

thanks,

Eric
