Client Deployment with Java Web Start

One common approach for distributing J2SE applications (especially desktop applications) is via Java Web Start. Below is a sample JNLP deployment descriptor that can be used as a template for Web Start based distribution:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<jnlp codebase="$$codebase">

     <information>
         <title>Cayenne::Sample Client App</title>

     </information>

         <all-permissions/>
     </security>

     <resources>
       <j2se version="1.4+" max-heap-size="256m"/>
