I have a Java program which has a number options it allows the user to change, mostly via JComboBox. The only problem is that every time the user closes the program the settings reset, because they are not actually stored anywhere. Is there a standard way to give Java programs persistent state between runs? I could write the settings to a temporary file, but it seems like there should be a more elegant solution.
The Java Preference API is the way to go.
