Hi,

We need to be able to access physical files system from GWT
application. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks!

I think you can use gwt4air (use flash) .

If you mean with " any other recommendation" a solution that does not require a plugin like Flash  you can try the HTML5 file API.
But the API is still primitive and not cross browser(IE). If you are willing to use Flash you can have a look at this demo: http://gwt4air.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/exporter/GwtAir.html

And if  that s what you are looking for let me know. I can provide the source code

Best,

 Alain

Maybe you can use an applet to access the file system

See this project: http://code.google.com/p/gwtai/

Applet ? What s that ? :)
Either you use HTML5 API (really limited) or flash(gwt4air)
