[JDEV] maintaining xdb_file information outside Jabber

[Oliver Jones]

Hello, Jabber experts.

In building a system integrating Jabber messaging with a web site including
registration, I have come across the problem of integrating web
registration with Jabber registration.

Is it possible, for example using a PERL script, to create and maintain the
contents of the xdb_file username.xml files, and to have changes made to
those files outside the Jabber server work properly?  Or does the Jabber
server cache contents of those files internally, making it hard to change
them on disk and have the changes take effect?

Has anyone succeeded at this kind of integration?

Thanks.
