 Description   

Hi,

i want to write (persist) a message (NewOrderSignle) using FileStore class and its set() method. The problem is that the file SESSION is well filled, while the BODY file remains empty !!! For information, the message i pass is valid, and the method FileStore.set(), when it calls the write() method of java.io.RandomAccessFile, the message is correct (not empty) ...
Any help please?

Unless you have a very special reason for doing it, you should not be persisting messages yourself using the FileStore. This is only for use by the Session implementation.

Thank you for the reply. That being said:
1/i need to store messages, then look for them, or to look (search) for a given contents (a given element) in one or several messages.
In addition to the file, I must define a cache system to store some messages.
2/A Data Base approach to store messages is not an option for me given my performance constraints (hence use of files rather than a DBMS).
3/ "Unless you have a very special reason for doing it, you should not be persisting messages yourself using the FileStore. This is only for use by the Session implementation. " : it does not explain why the call to the writeBytes method of java.io.RandomAccessFile write anything in this case.

Have you an explanation or indication for what I want to do please?
