how to best launch a jnlp from and then return to a different jsp
We need to launch (via a jsp page) a JNLP from a jsp template (already in
production) and do some task of some long time (filling out a form and then
uploading via non-JSP mechanisms a large file [between 5MB and 50MB]...
this is also in production) what we do not have and want to add is when the
JNLP completes the calling jsp is redirected to an other page (print
preview)... what is the best way to do this?

1. Your use case is correct except that it is entire SD cards (including
the file system structure)
1. For security reasons that is a bad idea (essentially it is not HIPAA
complaint) to have the server know before hand what data it will be
receiving and for whom (besides the filenames themselves vary based on how
the form was filled out)

Aryeh,
I suggest that you take a step from implementations, and define what
you want a little more clearly.
You have a webpage, that is served and loads a java app via jnlp. That
java app uploads some files to the server. At a later point in time,
you want the server to know that the client has uploaded the files to
the server, and hence change what is shown in the web pages? Is that
right?
Surely if the files are uploaded, can you just use the presence of the
file on the server to drive that logic? i.e. have the server check for
the file, and if present show x, else show the jnlp page?
Chris

Have you ever heard of metaphores obviously there are not server side
cookies I meant a cookie file (aka sential or whatever) that just shows the
upload completed and the webapp can use that as a status check

You're wrong. Jnlp won't leave a cookie on the server. Server may ask
client to store the cookie.
Jnlp is just a file. It tells JVM what jars are required for application
to run. Of course application may use e.g. REST to peform any actions on
the server. But it has nothing to jnlp itself.

Let me better explain the application there are some large files that
remote users need to upload for ananylsis (and then down load the reports
several hours later)... due the nature of the data (security and otherwise)
the client decided to by pass the web completely for the actual upload but
wants almost everything else in the web app... the idea is when the upload
is complete the server creates a sential file that the web app detects and
acts accordingly then erases the sential

Even if there is a way for the jnlp to leave a cookie on the server?

Web application (on tomcat) does not have any control on application
that was started via jnlp. They are separate.

since this is an intranet application the two are one in the same (assume
they have already accepted the jar signings and such)

One cannot "launch jnlp". It's up to user whether he will accept it and
run the application.
